recent imposition OF Is per cent

in addition TO the 8 per cent sales
tax already effective in the Do
minion. which brings the total col
lection 10 1877 cents on the aver
age retail dollars is a bad omen.
The year 1910 was probably out

proved amazingly effective in ar
resting respiratory diseases.
Many drug makers take a bale

the carryover on July I Will
amount to $50, 600. 900 bushels.

cess Of requirements. Domestic
consumption may be estimated at
about 70O,0OO,OOO bushels. Conse-
quently, $4,000, 900 bushels will
be available for export and carry

likely to be much larger than
the current seasons exports which
are estimated at only $4,000, 900
bushels. Not only have European
import requirements been greatly
reduced by the war. but Canada
has a sufficient exportable sur
plus to meet the worlds entire
normal demand. In addition, there
are substantial SURPRISES In Ar.
gentina and Australia.
Nevertheless, the price Of May
wheat at Chicago has recently adj
vanced sharply, rising from 70

of the governments recent action
providing for greater support to
the market through an increased
