CANADIANS REJOICE OVER
 VICTORY OF FORMER CHIEF

CANADIAN HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, Dec 4.-(By the Canadi- an Press Limited The splendid British advance has electrified the Allied forces on the Western front Nowhere has the striking success of General Byng and his army been greeted with greater enthusiasm than by the Canadian corps. None Of the congratulations pouring in upon him are more sincere than those from the Canadian forces whom he commanded so ably.
 Within a month France, to the North, had showed her mettle and rcpudiated the islander of those who said her strength was broken. Can ada and Britain at Passchendaeln had stormed positions of great value to the enemy and completed their hold on the ridges which threaten ed his command of the Belgian coast and Flanders
 Now, to the south the troops of the United Kingdom have broken their way through the enemy de- lenses for gains never before equal ed on the Western front in the same length of time. Neither the confusion of Russia nor the ordeal of Italy can offset the importance of these thirty days development on the Western front for this is the vital theatre of the war.
 No wonder the Canadians are ju- bilant. So is all France and Elan ders. This war has been marked by changing tactics, but nothing more daring or dramatic than the policy which sent the troops over the top with multitudes of tanks and without a suggestion of a bar rage to indicate their coming.

ROOT CROP MARKET q
CONTINUES GOOD

combinat ion Of wet weather, An
sterfering with the digging and market
ing of potatoes, and q decided In
crease IN the demand, had the effect 81
bringing paying prices to producers
above a dollar bushel last week. The
demand shown was from sections out
side OF the state, and from a wide
range Of territory. The extremely
hot YEA her covered a large part OF
the country and burned up the early
stock In some sections that had count
ed on a sufficient home supply The
government is in the market for z, eco
600 pounds for the army also and MIN
nesota dealers have been asked to bid
on this amount to be delivered at diff
ferent points as wanted.
The hot weather burned up the crop
OF many vegetables in the northwest
also, and green and wax beans and
-cucumbers are already being brought
IN from other growing sections. Fhe
shortage OF many garden crops will
cause heavier demand for all root
vegetables, and there is good sale iii
the cities for beets, carrots and ruta-
sbagas at from 50 to 50 cents a bushel
to the grower and at somewhat higher
figures to the retailer and consumer.
The prospects are that the Minnesota
crop will be marketed at good prices,
and producers should see that the
root vegetables of the northwest are
gathered and stored at the right sea
son, taken care Of until they are sal
able~a remunerative figures, and there.
will be no losses on the 1917 crop.

solve. But if he believes the farmer Of

plan he will learn that when the 1918
