THE DAILY NEWS PAtlE, FIVE WESTERN CANADA'S RIVER OF WHEAT NEVER-ENDING stream of gold, A flowing from the farms of the Prairie Provinces to the consumers of bread stuffs in all parts of the civilized world, is represented by the movement of the farmers' grain to the world mar. kets. Beginning in August each year and in some years flowing constantly forward until August of the following year, this everlasting river of wheat is Western Canada's contribution to the feeding of the civilized world. In the movement of this crop from the country elevators and loading platforms of the Prairie Provinces, the Canadian National Railways year by year are play- ing a more important part. Long before the western farmer has finished his seeding in the spring, preparations have been begun by the railways to move his crop. Cars musfc be ordered, foi each year more equipment is needed for the movement of the grain; other cars, which have been in service, must be brought . into the repaii yards and overhauled or rebuilt according to their needs, for the movement of grain is a strenuous work and grain cars show the effects of a season's haulage. And, since cars could not move forward without mo. tive power, new' locomotives of immense hauling power are necessary and must be ordered, while those which have already seen service in this strenuous work must also be jljjl HALIBUT SALES AT EXCHANGE YESTERDAY So, as the season approaches for the hum of the binders to be heard across the prairies, everything is of the company through the western region, compile a report on the loadings and movements of grain cars at the close of each day.- These reports are telegraphed to Winnipeg where, with advices from the lake, head and' Vancouver, they are assimilated. Hence, with one single report simply compiled, the entire Farmers' Grain at Line Elevators being prepared for the rush of the grain situation is shown for the harvest work. Constant vigilance preceding day throughout West-in this, as in every other great ern Canada. Figures for previous movement, is the price of safety and years are also kept on record with nothing is left undone to ensure that the reports as they come in and the movement forward shall be rapid, even, and unhampered. ;An important department, whose work is little seen outside of railway circles, is the Car Service Department, whose eye is watching night and day to see that grain cars are properly distributed and that once loaded, they move forward rapidly to the lake or ocean port from which further shipment is to take place. During the grain' rush each fall the Car Service officials meet a difficult situation, for instead of an even balance of haul back and forth through the west, there is an over- Lake Carrier Loading at Terminal brought in to the huge repair shops and overhauled and made ready. Nor is this all. In preparation for the movement of heavy trains loaded with wheat and in order that there shall be no' delay en route from the farmer's hands to the lake-bead or to Vancouver, roadbed and other facilities must be in the best possible condition. Therefore during the summer months every foot of the track over which the grain must move is subject to careful inspection and improvement: ballasting is done wherever it may be required and all parts of the system lire keyed up to the highest pitch in order that no hitch may occur in the movement of the crop. Weeks before the 'crop itself be gins to move, there lS'another movement under way which has an important bearing on the steady flow of grain to the markets of the world, and this is the gradual concentration of locomotives and grain cars at strategic points on the western lines, so' that they will be available for rapid distribution wherever they are needed. whelmingly large exodus from the grain fields with a proportionately small freight movement back toward the prairies. Here the Car Service Department faces the task of moving these empties back from the lake or ocean ports, to line elevators at the lowest possible cost and it is only by wise and careful scrutiny of the situation that it is possible for this work to be successfully carried out. An elaborate system of tabulating the grain situation daily is operated by officials ol this department Each day through the press there appear re-ports on the grain movement, both on lines through the west and at the head of the' lakes where ships are fast loading from terminal elevators as cars discharge their cargoes. To make this possible agents at any time comparisons may be made to show the progress over the same period each successive season for five years. WTien it is realized that upwards of 50,000 grain cars are on the Canadian National lines in the Western region almost continually, and that every movement of these cara must be checked in order that there shall be no confusion or delay in their 'handling, the enormity of the work of handling the grain movement may easily be realized. And to handle over 175,000 cars of grain Loading Wheat into Box Cars Canadian National Train of Wheat Bound for Terminal Elevators Aid.

He asked that he be so albertJ URALNj to the two outlets, the Great Lakes and the Pacific ports, means that train loads of grain must be kept constantly on the move, both eastbound and west-bound. The growing importance of the Pacific outlet is shown by the fact, that Canadian National car deliveries' to Vancouver during the gram year just closed, have been almost five times as great as during the season of 1922-23, and as more facilities are pro vided for the handling Of the westbound shipments it is ex-pected that the next few years will see enormous gains still being made year by year in this Banks and Marketed Here Close to two hundred thousand pounds of halibut was sold tit the exchange yesterday and prices were well Maintained considering lhe largo shipments of late.
