Our Trade With Canada.

Dehation and its consequeur check
on international commerce have
placed in bold relief no more satisfy
ing development than the consistent
growth and stability Of the Dominion
of Canada's foreign trade. Espe-
cially gratifying has been the steady
enlargement, through prosperity and
adversely, of the commercial and also
the purely financial relations between
the Dominion and the United States.
Not only does this country occupy
first place In Canadian trade, but our
money investments in Canada far ex-
ceed what might have been antici-
pated only n short while ago.
On this head M economic review
Of the Dominion for 1920 sketched by
JOHN G.. FOSTER, our Consul-General
az Ottawa, sets out some important
details. One table, given below in
condensed form, shows the extent OF
Canada's commercial expansion and
the predominant part this country
plays:

The Board of Education has acted
wisely in deciding that after the com

paign this month no collections of
money shall be permitted in the schools
except under circumstances Of the most
extreme urgency. Appeals TO the
school children and interruption of
their work are tolerable in an emer-

Wiping Out Rail Dividends.

In the Kennebec Journal, published
at Augusta, Maine, the holder OF ten
shares of stock In the Maine Central
Railroad has a letter explaining what
1t means to him to have the dividends
on his stock stopped to pay war infia-
tion wage scales Among other things
he says:
"I read an article in your paper
little while ago about the expenses
Central. showing how they had gone
up on account of shorter hours and
bigger wages over 100 per cent. In
four years. Now I want to ask
what is the fairness and justice In
more than doubling wages and keep
ing them up there and taking away
every cent of dividends from the
people who put their good money
into the railroad and own dt?
Il worked and saved the $1,000
my ten shares OF stock cost me. and
losing $50 year means good deal
to me. 1t costs me just as much to
live as the man who works on the
railroad, and I ask you why he
should have 1t all and have
nothing?"
But 1t isn't merely the railroad
stockholders who suffer from the car
riers being flattened out under noun
tains Of labor costs There are 2,00O,-
900 railway employees In the United
States getting the war imitation
wages, but there are more than 100,-
100000 other people on whom those
war imitation charges fall. The four
billions Of dollars year paid in war
imitation wages to the railroad work
ers are a direct charge upon every
man, woman and child In the country
In the prices that are thus added TO
general commodities to pay the rail-
road payrolls. If those war imitation
railroad wages are a billion dollars
Il year more than they ought to be
and they are all of that-they hit the
average American family, In which
there are five persons, $50 yea ii
they are two billion dollars year
more than they ought to be-and di-
rectly and indirectly they may be as
much as that-they hit the average
American family 500 year. This
ls' too heavy railroad load for the
American people to pack.
The war imitation railroad wages
must come down, whether stockhold-
ers get or don't get their dividends.
They must come down so that the
American transportation system can
have enough left over out of receipts
after paying wages to buy necessary
equipment, give good service and
properly maintain the properties.
They must come down so that where
freight rates are prohibitive of traffic
theS tan bt AtuuSeh 10 Wohc Ahole
business. They must come down 50
that the public's cost Of living can
come down.
The war imitation wages must come
down because while they are wreck
ing the American railroad system,
they cannot wreck that American
railroad system without wrecklng the
country and everybody In It.

Feed the Pigs Well

II appears to me that il there ever
was time when the full feeding OF
pigs would be desirable 1t Is now.
The price of feed is low and every
pound of gain that Is put on, il ra-
tional methods are used, will result
in profit. We do not know how long
conditions will be thus because there
have been plenty of years in Okla
lhoma when the opposite was true.
Probably that accounts in part for the
large number of farms that do not
have a hog on them today.
have been on farms recently
where pigs are expected to make
gains Oh some sort Of pasture and
with only little gain. and this in
the face of the fact that there have
been few years when the profit from
putting on pound Of gain on n
