Canada's victories at the Inter- ne' iennl Live Stock Exposition and Grain Show in Chicago have been the subject of many eulogistic re- marks. Among the coveted honors won by the Dominion were the championship for wheat, grand championship Shorthorn male and fe- male, grand champion Clydesdalp stallion and mare, champion carlot of market lambs, numerous cham- pionships in sheep classes, and many prizes in grain and seed se- cured by exhibitors from Ontario west to Albe ta.

Reversing the order of the digits and multiply- ing 123456789 by 45 we get a result epually curious viz. 5,5555,5555,555,- 505. If we take 123456789 as the multiplicand and, interchanging the figures in 45 so as to make them read 54. use thc last number as a multiplier the result will be 6,666,- 666, 606. Returning to the multipli- cand 987654321 and taking 54 as thc multiplier again, thc result will be 53,333,333,334 all threes except the first and last figures, which together read 54, the multiplier. Taking the multiplicand and 27, thc half of 54, as the multiplier, the product is 26,- 666,666,667, all sixes except the first and last figures, which together read 27, the multiplier. Now interchang- ing the order of thc figures 27 and using 72 instead ns a multiplier and 987054321 as thc multiplicand we get as a product 71,111,111,112, all ones except the first and last figures, which together read 72, the multi- plier.

Through the year radio apparatus and electric refrigerators have stead- ily continued to find increasing foreign markets and these two com- modities have accounted for the larg- est individual gains. There was an increase of 100 in the export of radio apparatus as compared with the cor- responding period of last year. Canada was the largest purchaser of receiving sets with Mexico next. Canada was also 'he most important purchaser of radio receiving compon- ents and the value of such purchases amounted to $615,285.
