Fifty of these are in what in known as Northern Ontario, and they produce an average annual cut of 1,000,000 board feet each. There are also many portable mills cutting lumber and rail- way ties. One-third of the total lumber cut of the province comes from the northern por- tion, about 350.000.0UO board feet annually. Forest tiros have caused great destruction of timber in Northern Ontario, where some of the finest forest lands have been burned over. As the for- ests and mini's in this portion of the province provide a mar ket for the product of other parts of Canada to the extent of $75,000,000 per year, the im- portance of protecting the for- ests from fire should appeal strongly both to the employer and employees in the older por- tions of the province.

Predicts Extension of Use of Aircraft for Business. A despatch from Washington says: Experts of the Department of Commerce are predicting that the next ten years will see an extension of the use of aircraft for business and plea- sure similar to the extension in the us of automobile* between 1B05 and 1915. "The airplanes will be used more and more for carrying mails and per- ishable goods," the statement said, "while it is not impossible that people of moderate wealth will find them use- ful for commuting, for business trips and for week-end and vacation trips." comb honey, per doz, No. 1, $4.50 to $5; No. 2, $3.75 to MM.

European Countries Buy from Canada Rather Than from the Republic. i A despatch from Ottawa says: Canada is deeply cutting Into the Un- ited Stales food exports to the United Kingdom and a number of European countries. These exports from the Re- public have so fallen during the last year that the matter has been made the subject of a special inquiry with a view to ascertaining the reason. For example, it has been found that whereas in 1921 agricultural products formed 78 per cent, of the American exports to the United Kingdom, in 1922 the proportion fell to 70 per cent To Germany these exports formed 84 per cent, of the total in 1921 and only 78 per cent, last year. In the case oi the Netherlands the reduction was from 81 per cent, in 1921 to 78 per cent last year; Belgium, from 77 to 68 per cent.; Italy, from 82 to 79 per cent. These reductions took place in spite of the fnct that the American exporters have had the amplest of credits. The American Government officials no doubt have had an impression that Canada has been getting much of the trade that the Republic lias beet. los ing, and this view is strikingly con- finned by the Canadian export figures.
