Thc Warcrioo CHnronmicLr Five men were killed and 75 injured in the clash between police and striking stel workers in South Chicago last Sunday. Over 2,000 strikers marched on the plant of the Republic Steel Corporation â€" and straight into a waiting force of armed police. When the advancing party refused to halt, police charged into The Province of Quebec, according to latest records, leads the rest of the provinces in the maple sugar industry with 75 per cent. of the total Canadian commercial output. Ontario comes next with 24 per cent. with the greater part of the output coming from the counties of Keeds, Glengarry and Lanark. The provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia provide the remainder of the commercial output. * $ 000 0 S EOe Om me sn C02. somtene CeRl CEERUACUUSCUOC ENCVE zn fornaaew._ last year, and the Hamburgâ€"American from So ; ina 1 : 4 great has been the killing of robins ir 48,000,000 marks to 700,000 marks. ...\ North Carolina and other States that the State It is, hqwever,.m the results of the South Conservation Department has taken steps tc American Line, which was handed over by the stop it.

Because a former employee was a member of the provincial police force in order to mainâ€" tain law and order, and which did not leave Toronto during the Oshawa strike, is no good reason why employees should strike. They were satisfied with working conditions and wages. Rather than object to the police force, they should have welcomed it as maintaining law and order not only for the employer but for themselves as well. The men no doubt were mislead by heads of the local union who have still to learn that Premier Hepburn and his Labor department were working in the interest‘ of the employees during the Oshawa strike. It is hoped the tanning workmen will view the matter in the proper light, return to work and get back on the payroll. This week 450 employees of a Toronto tanning company went on strike because the employer was considering engaging a former employee who had joined the provincial police force organized by Premier Hepburn during the Oshawa strike. The Company officials thereâ€" upon closed the plant and paid off the men. §$2.00 per year in Canada. s:!(l: ";h’-' in the States fiufl. countries.

British people didâ€"not think the busmen were good sports to go on strike during Coronaâ€" tion week but the millions of people said little and used railways and other means of transâ€" portation.

Dick Merrill, noted flyer, who crossed the Atlantic twice during Coronation week, found it more dangerous to land his plane at Toronto, where he narrowly escaped fatal injury. It was no credit to Toronto‘s airport field. It was pleasing to hear Dr. Hans Luther on his visit to Ottawa say that no war would break out in Europe. His assurance may not satisfy the civilians in the Spanish town bomâ€" barded by German ships this week. The work of rehabilitation by peopie in the flood area at London is still going on.

He ibecame an author by chance after writing a few articles for newsâ€" papers upon farm topics, and finally being asked by one of his friends to set down in book form some of his impressions and ideas of farming, he produced, under the title of "Farâ€" mer‘s Glory", the most favorably reâ€" ceived farming story ever published in (Britain. Jt went into seven sucâ€" cessive editions inside of 14 months after ‘publication. (His fame has spread almost all over the world as a writer of farming stories. __He returned to England at the time of the war and, at its conclusion, took over his father‘s farm, and since that time he has been the tenant at "Ditchampton Farm" in (Wiltshire, which he now operates as a dairy farm, milking 70 cows upon the Hoâ€" sier system, which means milking them outside in bales. The cows are not stabled either winter or summer and ‘Mr. Street is conducting a very successful dairy farm. Mr. Street spent four years as a farm laborer on a Manitoba homeâ€" stead about 50 miles northwest of Portage la iPrairie, coming out to Canada when he was about 18 years Of age and graduating into a firstâ€" class farm hand, who was able to hold his job with one farmer for four consecutive years. _ ‘The plans for these meetings were made by the Honorable Duncan Marâ€" shall who has read some ten books from the pen of Arthur G. Street. ‘Mr. Marshall visited this iWiltshire farmer at his home last summer and was impressed with the desirability of having few public meetings in Canada by an English farmer who is so practical and so charming in adâ€" dress.
