~_â€"_â€" _ Waterloo Chronicle "Russia is annually enlarging her wheat fields, and while most of the wheat at present will be used for home consumption, the increasâ€" Although there has been a steady increase in the acreage planted to wheat during the last decade the world‘s consunmption of the product has not kept pase hut has declined. Despite this, however, expansion of the world‘s acreage has npparont!_v not ended. Discussing the situâ€" ation the New OQutlook says: In British Columbia unsettled weather damaged early fruits in some districts and reâ€" tarded the growth of field crops, but the generâ€" al prospects continue favorable. The weather from midâ€"June, while not all that could be desired, has been more favourâ€" able, but the present conditioMresfi be regarded as satisfactory only in such favoured sections as Manitoba, Northern and Eastern Saskatcheâ€" wan and Northern Alberta, and, taking the prairies as a whole, it is stil plainly evident that the yields will not be close to the average unless moisture during the next week or two is plentifg} and well distributed. _ Perhaps it should be pointed out that in 1915 and 1923 the summer rains were exceptionally heavy; if there is anything in the theory of weather cycles, the crops may this year again be so faâ€" voured. As was to be expected, weeds and inâ€" sects have been more than usually troublesome. ‘ The crop situation in the prairie provinces continues to be one of the most critical in the history of grain growing in Western Canada, says a well informed writer. The favourable conditions attending planting in April and the early part of May, gave the new crops a good start ; without this advantage there would have been more serious damage than has been reâ€" ported during the past month. Those whose business it is to study closely all developments affecting crop conditions in this part of the country, including preâ€"season moisture, have known of the urgent need for rain during the period from April to midâ€"July, particularly in the main growing season, from early May on. This requirement was not, however, fully met up to midâ€"June, for while total precipitation from May 1st waus slightly heavier than in the like period of 1929, it was much less than the average. Furthermore, high winds in the latter part of May and the first part of June sapped some of the moisture from the soil, in addition to causing soil drifting. Fortunately, rain came in to prevent the spread of damage over the whole area, and in some districts the adverse climatic developments were so carly that conâ€" siderable replanting with coarse grains was possible, but there was an irreparable loss in many localities, and in certain individual cases the loss was heavy. Southwestern Saskatcheâ€" wan and Eastern and Central Alberta suffered the most. j Published every Thursday by David Beas & Sons, Ltd., Waterloo, Ontario. ~ ADVERTISING RATES Ou application.

One of the bright spots in the Canadian and even worldâ€"wide picture of business depresâ€" sion that we have heard so much about lately is the Town of Waterloo. There is no gloom here. With characteristic optimism its citizens are busy preparing for the early return of prosperity and a large addition to the populaâ€" tion of the town. Building permits for the first six months of 1930 provided for new construcâ€" tion in excess of half a million dollars and these will be increased to an extent that will bring 1930 in line with some of the best years in the history of Waterloo. In another section will be found some inâ€" teresting facts and figures which will he‘]p to justify the faith of citizens of Waterloo in the future of their town. The new Sunshine industry whose product will soon be carrying the name of Waterloo across Canada and the United States and even to remote parts of the globe, and additions alâ€" ready decided upon to other local industries, will furnish employment to hundreds of addiâ€" tional people and mean a large increase in popuâ€" lation. The 1929 census showed 8,389. The Chronicle is optimistic enough to believe that within the next two years Waterloo‘s population will reach and pass the 10,000 mark. This numâ€" ber would be sufficient for incorporation as a city by special bill in the Legislature. This method was used by the city of Kitchener in 1912 and by the town of Galt in 1914. Whether Waterloo will decide to follow the same proâ€" cedure and separate from the County of Waterâ€" loo when it passes the 10,000 mark or whether it will wait until it bas a population of 15,000 and can secure incorporation by orderâ€"inâ€"council remains to be seen. This may be looking ahead, but forward looking citizens see its coming. in United States, por year THE WORLD‘S WHEAT SURPLUS CROP OUTLOOK INX WEST FORWARD WATERLOO SUBSCRIPTION RATES "As a condition precedent to this," he said, "thée communists have strongly felt that the American Federation of Labor must first be everthrown and controlled. Moscow has set for its workers a ‘present task‘ which is to cultiâ€" vate conditions and bring about a realignment of forces in Canada and the United States which will promote the coming of the revoluâ€" tion on this continent and in the rest of the world." "As their activities have been directed to England, China, France, Germany, India, Persia and other European and Asiastic counâ€" tries," (Green continued, "so have they been extended to the United States. Organizations have been formed here whose purpose is to promote the communist party, to sow discord and to accomplish the overthrow of the soâ€" called capitalistic governments of the United States and Canada. (Green quoted from publications in the "Pravda" from Bolshevik Official statements and other sources. These he said, "strikingly illustrated the program of the Bolsheviks in their desire for world revolution." ing Russian acreage will uitimately have a decided effect on the world‘s supply. Buggested remedies, such as the purchase and retention Organized labor in the United States is of the same conviction, it is pointed out. William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, recently testifying in Washington before a special committee investigating comâ€" munistic activities stated emphatically that the importance of these activities among the workâ€" ing people of the United States was inconseâ€" quential. Only the potential importance of communism is serious on this continent, he said. at government expense of large amounts of grain merely defer the day of reckoning. One day the storedâ€"up surplus must be thrown on the market, with the result that prices fall. The only bright spot appears to be in the Orient, where the demand for wheat has been slowly growing and is likely to continue growâ€" ing. The riceâ€"eating peoples are only beginning to learn the advantage of adding wheat to their diet. In Japan and the Philippines, for example â€"two countries in which rice has for untold ages been the staple foodâ€"experiments with school children have shown marked benefits for those who have used wheat. But the sad feature in the world wheat situation is not the increasing ncreage coupled with declining conâ€" sumption. it is surely that of the elevators glutted in one part of the globe whilst millions of people are dying of hunger in another. And this in a day in which we proudly boast that modern means of communication have made the world a neighborhood." I‘»9/lhhevism has made little progress in Caâ€" nada or the United States it is stated in Jlabor circles at Ottawa. Organized labor in Canada is uncomprisingly opposed to communistic principles and will never compromise with communism officials of the Trade and Labor Council state. * "Canada beckons with the lure of beauty. Nature has been lavish in her gifts. Virgin forests, soul thrilling streams and lakes call the traveler, who seeks to get back to the life of the pioneer. Jn short, Canadians have sold the idea of seeing Canada to Americans and at the same time they have become imbuegd with the desire to see what the United States has to offer tourists. The interchange of visits, the absorpâ€" tion of ideas, and the creation of mutual underâ€" standing is even more valuable than the treâ€" mendous figures of the investment. A writer in The International Tourist published in the interests of the Playground of the two nations, United States and Canada, makes the interesting comment that Americans have become Canadaâ€"minded. Last year they spent $289,000,000 in Canada and of this vast sum $208,744,000, was spent by motorists who came across the border in 4,508,809 automoâ€" biles of all makes, sizes and classes. During the tourist season American cars were everywhere in Canada, jJourneying across the broad land of the Dominion from the remote regions of the north, the maritime regions of the east to the vast, boundless territory of the Pacific. ‘"The invasion of Canada has several unâ€" derlying causes. The average American tourist has learned that Canada is not only easily reached, but the formality of crossing the borâ€" der, is a very simple process. The American or the Canadian, who desires to cross the internaâ€" tional boundary, whose desire is honorable and whose manner is inspiring of confidence, will find no trouble going through the customs on either side. Moreover, they will find coyftesy is met by courtesy. > "The American tourist has discovered that he can load his family into the car be the veâ€" hicle pretentious or extremely modest, and within a few hours draw up at the border, pass through the customs quickly without the necessity of submitting a passport and be "on the other side" almost before he realizes it. He has found by experience that he will find courtesy in Canada. He has learned that he can readily find good shelter and good food at prices within his reach. In further, references to the great tourist industry, he says: BOLSHEVISM MAKES NO PROGRESS A BIPLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY E. 1.
