The six members of the party told a: story; of much hardship and ssuffering. They had made the journey in three days, which, con- sidering the fact that they had 'to break through bad drifts in the bills, wes fairly good time. They brought in two men who are badly frozen, one so badly that it is thought his feet may have to be am- putated, and the dead body of a woman, who died southwest of Lake Johnston and was•ben brought to the city by her husband. He bad made but slow progress on his mel- ancholy trip, it having taken .flim five days to travel thirty-two miles, when he was picked up by the, party. The rnen report much hardship among the settlers owing to the ter- rible eold and storms..

PULP IIDUSTItY OF CANADA Quebec Province Leads All the Dominion in Production, ty despatch. from: Ottawa. says Aceording to `statistics collected by the Forestry Branch of the :Depart- ment of the Interior, there were 622,129 cords of pulpwood used to Canada during the year 1909, Of this the total value at the mill twrais 3 S464 , 1,A90. In spzteof a decline in the price of ,pulpwood: the value of the wood consumed increased more than $$550,000 over that used in 1908, the quantity used being more than thirty per event,t inadvance of that used in the previous years, Thera: are sauce sixty pulp mills in the Dominion, and of these re- ports were received from fifty. Half of thea° mills are in Qnebee, one- fiftlr in :Ontario, and the rest are located in New Brunswick, Nova, Scotia, and British Columbia, The Province of Quebec furnished over half the pulpwcood, Ontario gave one-third, while the rest WAS ob- tained from NYewv Brunswick, Nova Scotia and British .Columbia. Two species of timber, 3'a spruce and balsam, furnished nine, ty-nine per cent, Of the wood used in the leaking of pulp, Poplar, dresn,lock and jack pine were also used, hree,fiftlis of the pulpwood out in Canada during 1909 was ex- erted to the United States for manufacture. Nearly all this woad went from Quebec:The average price :received f'or it was only forty- five cents more than ww as paid at the Quebec mills, The pulpwood' shipped froyal. Canada in 1909 fur- nished 464-10 per cent, of the raw. material used Qy the ninety. pulp mills of the State of New Yorls, and cin. appreciable portion of that used 1sy the mills of New England and Penlisylvania, , The manufac- ture of the pulpwood exported in 1909 kept 69 of the 251 pulp mills of the United States running 41 foiI eapacity, for the year. Had it boon rnanufaetured in Quebec it would have kept ,running 71 mills of the same size as those running in Quebec.
