which Canada should present to the conference, thus, so far as Saskatchewan

‘Western Provinces of Canada are concerned they should, in advance of the |

conference, reach common ground in regard to matters of policy in the
sphere of Empire trade, as the interests of the West may be affected there-

‘t is well, therefore, that the national

viewpoint of Canada, as represented by political groups, should thus be as-
certained and presented to the Canadian Government.

Admittedly the difficulties to be overcome, the problems to be solved, are
many and great. The national interests of each component part of the Em- Committees of Canada and the
pire have to be recognized, while the combined interests of all are being

worked out. There must, therefore,

Like the kitchen table, the chester-
field suite and little Jimmy's play-

be considered by Canadian National

other “household effect” for rating
purposes, as a result of a new ruling
that has just become effective.

household goods are moved in car-
load lots from points in western Can-
ada to the east, or between points
in eastern or western Canada, tke

How Railway Fights Weeds

English Company Finds Spraying

Poison From Tracks Effective

Weeds are the railwayman's
enemy as well as the gardener’s. If
left alone they would choke the per-
manent way as effectively as in like
circumstances, they would do our
flower-beds and gravel paths. The
British Southern Railway has made
an effective weed-killing train by
coupling two old tenders together and
fitting them with spray pipes and
tanks. - A special form of liquid
weed-killer is used, and the spray
pipes have an effective range of about
ten feet.

Facts About the Moon

One Side Very Hot and the Other
Intensely Cold

Professor Stewart, of Princeton
| University, predicts that within the
next hundred years our great-grand-
| children will travel to the moon in a
‘rocket-propelled ship which will cost
£400,000,000 to build. There are one or
two little things found necessary to
humans which are not found on the
moon, For instance, there is no air,
no water, no food. Also the climate
of the moon is somewhat unsuitable:
On the side turned towards the sun
the temperature rises to 244 degrees
Fahrenheit, which is a good deal hot~
ter than boiling water. On the other
side it falls to 244 degrees below
zero—276 degrees of frost. Actually
no human being could live for an in-
stant in such heat or such cold.
