M. A. IloUlnger, secretary or tne com

says :
"During the past year wc have ac
quired, by purchase and through conver
sion of preferred stock of the Distilling

bonds, upon cancellation of which there
will lemaln of said bonds $7,078, 353.71
outstanding. The cost of all bonds so
purchased has aveiaged aliout 72 cents
on the dollar
"Notwithstanding the ract that by the
actiulrement of bonds, the eoMipanv has
protlted (treatly as the. result of the heavy
discount and Is effecting a substantial
saving itl interest payments, nnd Is also
decreasing the liabilities which are a
charge on the assets ahead of tho stock,
the management has considered it fair
that the stockholders should receive
some additional benefit from the In
creased earnings In the shape of cash
dividend-, and at the meeting of the dl
reotors on February 13, a regular dlvl.
dend of 1 j of 1 per' cent, and an extra
dividend of 1 iper cent, for thn nrst
,, tinner of the vear 1911, was declarer,
'The management, ri account of con
ditions existing at the present time, has
deemed It expedient to write off $2,641,
149 23 from its property account and the
surplus has been correspondingly reduced."

Ottawa, Out. Feb. 21. The problem
of adjusting the unfavorable exchange
rate now existing between the Dominion
anil the I'nltcd States Is one which Is
seriotu-ly engaging the attention of the
Finance Department and the ilovern
nient here. Canada now has an adverse
balance of trade with the I'lilted Stales
of nearly $400,000,000, and as a onse
quenre the rate, of exchange is very un
favorable to the Dominion. The adverse
balance Is largely due to the fact that
there I ory little who it movement
from this country across the border and
that the United States has embargoed
a long list of Imports.
If the adverse rate of exchange cannot
be adjusted In somewise it Is believed
Canada will be compelled to heavily cur
tail her imports. As she depends on the
United States for much of the raw mate
rial of her munitions and other manu
facture, this will be somewhat diffi
cult to do to a degree which would be
effective,
It has been suggested that provincial
and municipil bonds might ho deposited
in the United States against a credit to
obviate tho unfA-orablo exchange rate.
A further suggestion, and one on
which the Government Is at present
working, Is that C.reat Britain make a
loan'ol $300,000,000 from the United
States to be placed at the dlspoal ot
Canada In return for an equal amount
which Canada must raise to finance
Ilrltish orders here,
