"n its face the statement may ap- ;..:.:• somewhat boastful but few greater truths have ever been ex- p-essed. King Charles the XII. of Sweden, Napoleoon of France and Wilhelm II. of Germany all attempted to conquer Russia. Each had behind him the greatest military machine of his day. All failed. The triumphs of Charles of Sweden ln Poland were followed by disaster at Pultawa. Napoleon triumphantly crossed the Niemen and forced a passage of the Borodino, victories which ended only in the historic retreat from Moscow. Germany has also won its victories since 1914, but they have been victories which have cost Germany more than they have cost Russia. They have contributed to the defeat to delay which Germany now is desperate: struggling, Rusia's history, its millions in population, its enormous productive power, its people's enduring faith in their leaders, the vastness of Rusr sia's territory and the rigor of its climate are cold facts, unshaken by the reverse sustained in tlie Russo- Japanese war, which remove from the war minister's speech any element of boastfulness. BIG SUBSCRIPTION MADE BV GRANBY COMPANY TO FUND The campaigners for the Canadian Patriotic Fund were much encouraged to receive from the Granby Consolidated Mining Company promise of a subscription for 1917 of no less than $15,000, says The Vancouver World. This subscription is altogether apart from the large amount already contributed monthly by the employees of the company. The campaign committee feels that slmflar generous support from other large concerns in Vancouver would do much to secure for them the additional $100,000 they need to reach their total of $400,000. WHOLESALE BAKERS WARNED IN MATTER OF HIGH PRICES Ottawa, Nov. 25.—Hon. T. W.

Mr. Thompson does not discuss extensively the steps which could be taken to conserve the halibut, but his paper brinss cut many facts vital to their formulation. Tho exhausted conditions of the banks off the coast is clearly shown, and established the vital need of their protection during that portion of the year when they are yielding the largest proportion of small and immature fish. Since the main lisliing has shifted farther north, (here should be no great obstacle to the application of protective measures, to the southern banks. Protection to a small area or tlie establishment of closed zones of comparative limited extent can have no effect on the whole. Effects of close season in various months may he judged from the comparative yields given In Mr. Thompson's tabulations, the value of such closures being in direct proportion to Ihe activity of the fishery at the time they are In force. !

Gain or no gain the course before the farmers of Canada is as clear as It was last year—they must produce abundantly in order to meet thc demands that may be made, and I believe this to be especially true in regard to live stock, the world's supply of which must be particularly affected in this vast struggle.

While war is our first business, it is the imperative duty of every man in Canada to produce all that he can, to work doubly hard while our soldiers arc in the trenches, in order that the resources of the country may not only be conserved, but increased, for the gre.-.t struggle that lies before uc. ' Work and Save' is a good motto for War-time."—SIR THOMAS WHITE, Minister ef Finance.
