Speed Is a Matter of Steady Pace BY ERWIN GREER The car you are driving ls prohr ably capabjo of a* speed of from sixty to seventy nitles an hour—but you can not use this speed for any length of time without flirting with the angels. The modern highway, while built like a speedway, isn't a one-way proposition like the racetrack. Therefore, the driver who speeds must always make frequent and nerve-racking stops which cuts down his average time to a minimum. His speed is iar below that of the drtver wlho maintains a staedy pace hour alter hour. What is speeding? Since it Ib the primary cause of a majority of all automobile accidents, isn't it about time that it is plainly de fined A great many motorists think that there is something magically safe about motoring, when the speedometer hugs close to 20 miles an hour. Yet speeding can happen at any speed. One driver has discovered that m/uch can be learned about speeding by driving the car with the speedometer disconnected. For . the test he secured the services of a friend who followed him over a prescribed course in another car. The driver With the disconneced seed- ometer proceeded just as he would under normial conditions, and then checked up v-*lth tho actual speed record, as noted by the friend following him. The results Were surprising. Invariably he drove from 5 to 15 miles an hour faster than he thought he *. as going, This was particularly ' noticeable in trallic and in going down bill on the open highway. ' An interesting thing happened on one of these tests. The ' sudden appearance of another car, turning in from a crossroad, called for the quickest possible stop. The driver without a speedometer actually failed to stop in time to avoid a collision, just because he thought he was stopping quickly enough, and never bothered to reacu ror the tmergency brake, until it was too late! The experiment showed plainly that the average driver can not guess his speed—and that he invariably goes faster than he thinks. It shosw that a car driver is speeding, whenever his conception of a safe stopping distance is less than the actual stopping distance. Putting two and two together, this experiment shows that a driver who drives Without a speedometer, or who doeB not watch his speedometer, is speeding—at any speed.

(Billy) Williams, who lives ln Montreal when he ls not on the* oceanr ls here seen on the S.S. Minnedosa, by which he sailed the other day for his 112th crossing of the Atla.ntic. Net content with his numerous business trips to Europe Mr. Williams has taken two cruises to the West Indies. Transportation of heavy supplies up steep mountain trails formerly traversed by burros and llamas to Bolivian mines located 12,000 to 16,000 feet above sea level ln the An des range, has been solved by the use of light uutonuobile trucks. Ohevrolets figure prominently iu fleets recently purchased by mine operators in South America. Centuries ago tlie Incas developed these mines located in tlie most inaccessible inland ranges. The Spanish conqulatadores, envious of the' Indians' wealth, made short work of reducing the native population to a condition of slavery, and supervising the uroductton of gold. In later years silver and tin have been the mjost profitable nietul* produoedd ln Bolivia, with the operations serously handicapped by tlie inuacccssiblllly of tlie mining sites. Until a year ugg burros and Humus, Carrying a m*i**li»um load of 100 pounds each and travellln g only 20 miles daily, were relied upon to transport supplies to the sky-line operating centers and to carry down to seaboard and railroads the refined mletalB, enormously heavy even in small quantities. Improvements In miningpractice were im-j -possible uutil better distributing methods were available. Notwithstanding roads which were only rough trails covered with rocks' and the fact that an automobile mo-j tor ordinarily loses 30 to 35 perj cent af its power when operating in the raril'ied atmosphere of high altl-j tudes, Chevrolet trucks have practlv cally superseded the pack uuiin-als.' One light truck of the Chevrolet type, carrying 2,000 pounds and covering 120 miles daily, does the work of 120 burros or Ham-as and cuts •transportation charges exactly in half. - I Perhaps in no other locality in the wprld are automobiles subjected to such severe tests of their stamina! and power as in the Andes ranges , where road building is of the most primitive type. Recognizing | the necessity of good roads as being even greater than railroad trans-1 portation, the Bolivian government has elnbarked on tto extensive road building campaign to further the use ot auwoipbilM. 1.

ELECTRIC LIGHT TAKES PLACE OF MINE LAMPS From fourteen huts ou the rim of a deep craterlike hole in South Africa, shafts of light stream out every night to illuminate the diggings below where natives are toiling in the clay for diamjoiuls. Thil lighting system, has been installed at the Premier mines, whero tlie famous Cullinan diamond was discovered, and consists of batteries of 1,500 and 2,000-watt lamps witli filaments ot tho so-called "mpnoplane" type. In front of each lamp ls a 5 1-4-inch spherical mirror and each projector has a slxteen-lnch parabolic mirror. The lights have a range of from 900 to 1,600 feet for satisfactory illumination, antl aro considered a great advance over the old typo of arc searchlights, which wlere constantly being damaged by the blasting operations. It is estimated that, at the end ol 1024, the mines had produced £3,500,000 carats ot diam'inds.

OCTOBER 1, 1926 Notes • Notions** Notables Breeders of race horses and blood stock generally are of the opinion this industry has developed into one of Britain's best. Export demand has grown to such an extent of late years that England is said to be supplying the world with blood-stock. At the Decern ber sales in Newmarket, England, there were buyers from no less than fifteen countries, including the United States and South America. American buyers are said to be the keenest and buy only tbe very best thorough bred animals.

There is said to be enough hot water to heat every house comfortably. In addition every home will have a continuous flow of hot water. Narrow pipes, buried three feet deep in the ground, have been led through vegetable gardens with the result that an ideal temperature for growing has been developed and that potatoes have been planted much earlier and have also ripened much earlier than in other places, where no pipes have been installed.

Sir Arthur Currie, principal of McGill university, Montreal; Sir Robert Falconar, president of the University of Toronto, or E. W.

'The financial statement of the Canadian Pacific Railway issued nt Montreal for the .seven months of 1926 ending July 31st, shows the large increase in the net profits of 16,691,301.62 over the net profits for the first seven months of 1925. The gross earnings wer, $101,826,207.11, as compared with 490,343,867.75 for the first seven months of 1925.' Unofficial estimates prepared by the authorities of the Department »f Commerce, Washington, estimated that Americans visiting Canada this year would spend approximately 9190,000,000. This estimate was intimated to be very conservative and that it was more than likely that the amount would exceed the $200,- 000,000 mark. Announcement was made recently over the signature of E. N. Todd, freight traffic manager, Canadian Pacific Railway, of the appointment of D. A. Wanklyn as Industrial Commissioner of the Railway, with offices in Montreal. Mr. Wanklyn replaces Graham W. Curtis, who has resigned, to fill the position of general manager for Montreal Rail and Water Terminals, Limited. Otto H. Eahn, chairman of the board of directors of the Metropolitan Opera Company, accompanied by a party of internationally known financiers of New York, visited the National Exhibition at Toronto recently. Mr. Kuhn, who is perhaps the leading art and music patron of the United States, addressed a luncheon of the directors of the Exhibition on September 2nd, the day of the Exhibition, which was set aside as "Music Day." It is understood that purchases in Canada of 6,000 railway cars may result from the visit of the engineering expert, Mr. Vandergulcht, and the Transport Commissariat's representative, Mr. Baronsky, who have been delegated by the Soviet Republic to Investigate the possibility of securing this number in Canada. They have also been instructed to make a study of the organization of the Canadian railway shops and the repair methods In general. Three wolf cubs were caught recently near Lake Doucelle in Northern Ontario by Arthur Beauvais, well-known driver of the Chateau Frontenac dog team at Quebec, and will be trained by Baauvais for the harness. He is confident that by mingling the wolves with huskie puppies for several months they will lose some of their wolfish nature and make an attractive addition tu the Chateau team. Ecauvais states that, while wolves havo endurance, they have not the "heart" of a huskie dog.

Spilt Milk Costs Uncle Sam $77,399,685.00 Annually The amount of milk spilt, soured, rejected and otherwise wasted annually, Is 3,819,986,000 pounds. This at 32.25 per hundred would approximate annually the stupendous amount of $77,399,685. However, a cheerful note rings through this tale of economic loss to a nation. The same report shows a 1924 increase of 108 pounds of milk per cow over 1923 production. Deducting this from tho figure previously given, leaves a loss through waste of only 313,607,325, a mere bagatelle, compared with our national debt of more than twenty billions of dollars. The Increased yield per cow is due to heightened efficiency on the farm; and future years promise even greater increases. Dairymen have discovered the futility of feeding non-paying members ot their milk herds. They have learned that losses lurk in Insanitary milk production. They havo discovered the advantages that lie In swatting the bacteria tbat hide ln unclean stables, undipped, un- brushed flanks and udders of milk cowb and unsterlli-ted utensils.

People with correct posture have a graceful walk and carriage and a certain appearance of style, even if they have no other claim to boauty. They also have better health than those whose posture is poor. In spue of this, one rarely sees a perhon with per leet posture. People with good posture do not get tired easily. The weight of their body is properly distributed over several sets of muscles, instead of all falling on one or two, as is the case when the be ly is not held in good posture. High heels throw the wearer out of balance and cause incorrect posture. Ordinarily, a military heel about 1-B to 1.75 incheh high is satisfactory. oney makes the mule go and the automobile makes the money go. The Wool Industry in Shut!,!, Africa Letter frnm E. S. Btrl.,,:. It ,:,n'„n till The Union of South Africa is rightly classed among the great wool producing countries of the world. Climatic conditions there are admirably adapted to breeding nnd raising of the Merino type of sheep with a strong, staple wool. A large part of this country is suitable only for the raising of sheep, and the government is making progressive and intelligent efforts to improve both the sheep and the manner of preparing the wool for market. Jackals being a strong menace in South Africa, long-time government loans arc extended to sheep owners for thc erection of jackal-proof fencing. Government sheep experts arc maintained permanently in allotted districts so that their services anil advice may be assured at a nominal fee. The mutton sheep of South Africa is the fat-tailed, black-headed Cape —a non-wooled sheep. As no crossbreeding for mutton lambs is done, the wools are purely Merino in character. Progress in this South African industry is particularly noticeable in the harvesting. Despite the fact that Kaffir labor can be secured at thc equivalent of $3.50 per month, thore is a trend towards the modern shearing machine as against the age-old hand blades, which, even on this continent, have not been discard-d by many'otherwisc entirely progressive wool raisers. A study of this fact, however, readily reveals the reason for it. While there is a first cost for the machine, the unskilled black adapts himself to its use much more readily than to the hand blades, and soon does a remarkably smooth job of shearing with the machine. Once adapted to the use of th-* machine, its economic value is demonstrated in the materially greater number of sheep shorn daily, the better market value of the wool, the Ptttr -.. : .'. nd. Kajji.- .ln.at-n fewer maimed sheep, and not least important, the additional 6% to 12% more wool obtained with the machine over and above the amount ol wool secured with the hand blades. As a cons'-quencc, the machine resolves Itself into a .small investment with certain and !*;■; returns. Steadily, the science of wool-marketing in South Africa is fast ap- proachlhg the sciertific efficiency of the Australian i uirkoting plan, which is, without i!»iibt, the most practical and officii :it in existence to-day. • Considering that the four provinces, Natal, Transvaal, Orange Free State and Cape Province, which comprise the Union of South Africa, have over a million square miles less of territory than the populated Provinces of Canada, it is surprising to note that they contain over ten times as many sheep as the whole of Canada. The Union of South Africa ranks about fourth among the countries of the world in sheep population. These points alone put that country In line as a strong contender for future leadership in the wool industry. It is interesting lo note, however, that, the great bulk of their pro- gressiveness is due to quickness in observing the advantages of modern implements and machinery and up-to-date methods and discarding the old ideas that are not nearly so profitable. In view of the wonderful progress the wool industry has mnde in South Africa in a comprratively short time, that industry i* surely destined to take a large ami important place in thc economic progress of the far distant Union of South Africa. **? «**-** ..—tx-..r—in*g io stacis- tics prepared by the Vancouver Merchants' Exchange, the foreign trade export of the port has increased 400 per cent, in the past Ifive years, while bhe import trade has increased 51 per cent. ♦> In a recent report from the Canadian Pacific Agent at Shanghai received at Montreal it is stated that the summer in vicinity of Shanghai has heen trying on account of drought. This may have a disastrous effect on this crops. The long and intense heat wave was only recently broken by a typhoon which struck the Coast near Shanghai. A plan is projected by the Osaka Prefectural Government authorities in Japan for the promotion of a large exposition in commemoration of the tenth anniversary of the restoration of world peace. It is expected thst the exposition will be opened in Osaka in 1929. The plans for the exposition, which will be carried out at tremendous cost, have been approved by the Prime Minister. So successful on Canadian farms have been young bachelors, who, prior to residence in this country were students in agriculture at the Hodleigh Salvation Army Schools in Essex, England, that the Army will shortly receive into those institutions their first classes of married men destined for farm lands in the Dominion. The course will be given during six months, and will mean a thorough training in branches of agriculture, particularly adapted to conditions in Canada. Prospects for the establishment of an air route in Japan for mail and passenger service have brightened with the announcement that the Ministry of Communications have included an appropriation in the budget of the Communications Department for such a service. It is anticipated that there will bs enough passengers willing to pay double the railroad fare for the sake of speed between Osaka and Tokyo, the leading cities ef Japan. The Hebridean emigrants who are leaving their lone sheilings and misty islands for a new life in Canada have, curiously enough, hitherto been ignored by the novelist, although the romance of this migration, extending over a hundred years provides a wonderful field for fiction. The extent of this field has now been realized, -however, in the new novel "Eyes of a Gypsy," by the Canadian writer John Murray Gibbon, who is the well- known author of "Drums Afar", etc., and Dean of Publicity of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Action should be taken by the authorities in the Province of Quebec to shorten the open season for hunting deer and moose, according to Ozark Ripley, well known writer en animal and wild life and prominent hunter and angler. Mr. Ripley also believes that the deer season is too early as in September the deer are still in their red coats, and their numbers are only conserved through their ability to hide amongst the leaves of the underbrush which have not yet fallen. He believes that a scarcity of this game will result from the lengthy season. The Earl of Clarendon, Under Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs in the British Government, who has been touring the Dominion investigating the conditions under which the 3000-family scheme from Great Britain is working out, de- clared, in an interview at the Canadian Pacific Windsor Street Station at Montreal recently, that one of the greatest things upon which the success of the scheme depended was the loyalty and cheerfulness of ths mothers of families brought out to Canada to be located on farms. His Lordship paid a special tribute to the type of women brought out under this scheme whom he hatl met during his personal v'sita among immigrant families.
