GRAINS FOR EXPORT

Thirty ocean steamers, each en-
deavoring to load grain for foreign
parts at the same time, is the pic
ture which comes via press dis
patches from Montreal which illus
trates once again that Montreal is
something of an ocean port.
As an exporter of grain remains in
wonderful position. 1t has only
100000 people to feed. yet its
acres extend from the Atlantic to the
Pacific 1t is a granary that feeds a
large part of Europe. where they
also raise grains but not enough for
the populations.
The United States is in slightly
different position than Canada. al
though it also exports grain. In the
first place. it takes more to feed our
population of more than 100. O00. 900;
a large proportion of our citizenry
are engaged in industrial and mer.
camille pursuits; we are consuming
larger percentage of our owr
grain yield every year. In so year!
we probably will be grain import
ing nation. rather than one witt
grain for expectation. At that time
we will be lucky to have Canada sc
close.
Meanwhile We will construct thu
st. Lawrence canal in order to ex
pedite exports: and maybe the gov
eminent will assist the farmers II
hatch a scheme to aid in exports.
When the time arrives for us t.
be grain importing nation tn
business of farming in these United
States will be among the most profit
able of occupations. This may no
occur until that time arrives.

that is. il nobody happens TO pay

didn't ask anybody's permission be
fore they went and bought those
fancy insignia for the coat lapels. If
they had taken some Of the higher
ups-jf there are any-into their
confidence about it nobody would
have cared Five extra badges In
town. AFTER all, make very little Hll =
ference. We already have so many
beng sported by city officials that
nobody can tell exactly what they
are all about. and five additional
spar>lurs. W. say. will not confuse
us any more than we already are
confused. But this buying badges
without permission and then throw
ing the blu in front OF the Common
Council for payment is going too
far That. we take il. is one of the
points that Mr.. Johnson wants
brought up.
Getting down to basis of reason
ing that even moron can under
stand, We'll put II this way: If the
members Of tn. fire board. and the
gentlemen of the police board. and
such other Office holders who hap
pen to be hedcck.d with emhlems
uaiiy need the INTO show how inn
portant they are. then the monsieurs
of the building commission also re

ine them without telling anybody
about 1t until the bill arrives is an
