At yari- ous times in recent years donations of wild animals have been shipped to points in the United States and other countries, Recently one pair of beaver and one pair of Rocky Mountain sheep were shipped from Vancouver to the city of Auckland, New Zealand. The beaver were taken in Jasper national park, while the sheep are from the rapidly increasing wild herd in Rocky Mountains National Park. Every precaution was taken to see that the animals reached their desti- nation in good condition, and on ar- rival at Auckland they were placed in the Zoological Gardens of that city.

We also visited the main trading hall where British grain dealers gather for direct trading; and completely equipped laboratory for the grading of grains. Before leaving, we were addressed by R. G, Harker the President of the Exchange, who in an informative talk told us that one-fifth of the wheat imported through the port of Liverpool was Canadian and one half of that was absorbed by the mills of the Liver- a pool area. After lunch we paid a flying visit to the extensive cattle lairages at 3irkenhead, across the river, where fat and store cattle are received, now mostly from Ireland, the supply of Canadian cattle being practically nil. On our return to Liverpool we had the novel and delightful experience of a} reception by Liverpool's Lord Mayor, Miss Margaret Beaven. (To Be Continued.) Harry H.

CANADIANS COMING BACK More Returning From States Than Are Going Across Border If the tide of Canadians coming back from the Unilted States to Can- ada is any measurement of prosper- ity then that happy condition is to be found right in the Dominion. O. G, Adams, immigration inspee- tor in charge at Windsor, states de- cidedly that there are far more Cana- dians coming back from the United States than there are going across the line, A more interesting fact made by Mr. Adams is that this reflux of Canadians to Canada is not distinct- ly a new thing. “It became noticeable four years ago at this point,” the federal immigration inspector sald. The Windsor inspector had his last monthly report on his desk, ready to send. “During the last month,’ he said, “there were 506 Canadian-born citizens returned to this port, who had resided for a period of more than six months or more in the United States.” . Another significant feature of this inflow back to Canada is the number of pecple who were born in Fnglana. “Of these 506 Jast month,’ Mr. Adams pointed out, “104 were British subjects with Canadian domicile; that is, five years’ residence in Can- ada. On the list are also 41 natural- ized Canadians who could prove Canadian domicile.” Mr. Adams said decidedly that “there are more coming back than are going out.” “Of course,” the immigration in- Spector added, “as long as there Is a border, there will be people going back and forward. But it is ridicu- lous to try to prove that there is a Canadian exodus to the United States. There is no distinct exodus and the figures prove it." United States immigration officials at Detroit agreed with the Canadian inspector that any distinct influx of Canadians across the border to find employment had long since ceased. and that the trend was now all the other way. Asking For Federal Grant Manitoba Applying For $300,000 Standing Yo Credit Of Province Application will be made by the Manitoba government for $300,000 which is approximately the sim that stands at the credit of the province in connection with the grants made by the Dominion government to the provinces nine years ago for technical education, Hon. R. A. Hoey, minister of education, Manitoba, has announc- ed. Because of the industrial depres- sion that prevailed at the time the grant was first made Manitoba was |not- able to take full advantage of it, but conditions have changer now, Mr, Hoey added, and the need for technical instruction, with the indus- trial development occurring now, was more apparent than ever. irpesiee Construction Department Saskatchewan Wheat Pool Will Su- pervise Building Of Elevators A new Construction Department has recently been organized by Saskatch- ewan Pool Elevators Limited, which j will Supervise the construction and acquisition of the Pool elevators in- {cluded in the 1928 building pro- gramme as well as the maintenance of the elevators at present existing in the system.

New Chemical Discovery Furfural a Powerful Solvent Made From Oat Hulls x Sit down at the breakfast table, eat your porridge, glance at a maga- zine and look at your watch to see if you can walk to the 8.15, Do you realize that oats furnish the breakfast and helped make the watch and the magazine? asks the New York Herald-Tribune. Moreovei oats may have helped to make you motor car tires, to color your ho: and to keep healthy a wounded tre e. And that’s only a part. What's the answer? Furfural, which is a pi duct of oats and which was one of the hundreds of things tucked sway in the booths of the recent chemical position that justified the slogan over — the New York headquarters of the American Chemical Society: “Chi istry Creates New Competition. Furfural has a picturesque story. It is a powerful and effective solvent i which can be made from many waste products of the farm, Corn cobs are an excellent source; but, unfortunate- ly, corn cobs are scattered over many — farms and the task of bringing them together in one place is expensive. Oats are another problem. The makers of a brand of oatmeal us to have on their hands some tons of oat hulls every day, which were use-— ful only for fuel, and not very is fuel at that. So the consulting chem= — ist of the company decided that what — could be done with corn cobs could be done with oat hulls; furfural in com- mercial quantities resulted. ee That Stomach of Yours!
