"Many of them are well- to-do, practical farmers from the east, who have sold out down below, and are prepared t0 tape Ad- vantage of 110 opportunity to branch out on a larger scale, Others are good, industrious foreigners, all of whom can at least read and write, and are in every other respect qualified for good citizenship." Although the Manitoba Provincial Immigration department has been shipping out, 011 All average, 35o men. each day since the one -cent -a -mile rate went into effect on August 5, the demand for laborers throughout the prairie provinces is increasing daily, and the visible supply does not seem to be anything like adequate. This is the import of a statement made by Immigration Officer j, Burke, "In the southern portion of this province," said Mr. Burke, "wheat harvesting is in full swing, and every farmer could use from four to five men more than he has. In the immediate vicinity of Win- nipeg and in other places the situa- tion is not quite so acute just now. but next week will see the demand just as great. We expect special trains, bringing in 3 000 men to arrive immed- iately from the maritime provinces, but these, comparatively speaking, will be only a drop In the bucket." The returns made to the Manitoba government by the trust, loan and in- surance companies of their investments in the province during last year show that they kept pace with the progress and development of the country. The total amount outstanding at the end of the year was calculated to be $xoo, 851,916, as compared with $86,22o,o44 on the last dA the he v preceding dyear. P g Practically every class of loaning con- cerns shares in the increase. The total building permits issued at Winnipeg In 3 r 2 upLill P g 9the i m ddle of August is $16,384,100, a sum which is just $1,116,000 short of the total building for the last year, and $1,268,000 in excess of the total expended for this purpose in 191o. There seems to be little, if any, decrease in the weekly amount of permits issued by the building. inspector, last week's totall- ing $177,95o. The Playfair buildings, will in a few days be in actual course of construction 00 its site, the corner of Garry street and Ellice avenue. While the entrance to the building is in the 5o foot front on Garry street it has a magnificent frontage of 120 feet 00 the Ayepue, and the large area; ot plate glass useded in its canaGrucki n will make 11 appear almost like a glass. structure. It will have thirteen stories, with a roof ard@n,s tr @k ftOptH Ia finished in nd c Indiana awl pinks glass. In its IinteriOlflnishi 1gs and arrangements the "light and air" have been the two principal things in the minds of the architects, Messrs. Moss and MacFar- lane, 0f Montreal and Winnipeg, 'there will not be an inside office ip all its thirteen floors 'nor an office that has less than a ten -foot windoW, Its cor- ridors, stairs and panel work will lee all In white marble, while in the base- ment will be a genuine Rathseller or Dutch restaurant. Negotiations are in progress with one of the large city clubs for the lease of the two top floors and the roof garden, while other floors will be practically devoted to the use of the medical profession. These of - flees will be finished in detail as the occupants desire, and with marble floors and wainscoting and will be abso- lutely antiseptic. The entire building will be absolutely fireproof, and its complete cost will be little short of million dollars. 1t Does Care Womanly 111s "I feel it my duty" writes Mrs, S.

Re o Louisville K and ill � y rl w Advice to Expectant Mothers The experience of Motherhood is a try- ing one to most women and marks dis- tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or un- derstands how to properly care for her- self. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experience with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Fol- lowing right upon this comes the ner- vous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child -birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an un- prepared condition, and with ample time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. Every woman at this time should rely upon LydiaE.Pinkham'aVegetable Com- pound, a most valuable tonic and invig- orator of the female organism. In many homes once childless there are now children be- cause of the fact that Lydia E.

OUR WINNIPEG LETTER The business men of Winnipeg this week enthusiastically endorsed the ef- forts of the Industrial Bureau to en - chance Winnipeg's attractions as a Con- vention centre, Towards the erection and maintenance of a convention hall capable of accommodating 4,000 people, an art gallery and museum, and a sub- stantial addition to the exposition of manufacturers and resources a one - day campaign brought in about $17,- 000, with the prospect that this sum will be increased to $25,000 at an early date by a "follow-up" campaign, when many business men now on holiday re- turn to the city. This, along with a civic grant ot $2o,0oo, and other sums received, will provide all that is re- quired and the work on these ambi- tious extensions to the public service institutions provided by the Bureau's organization is now web under way. Ao effort is being made to have the new hall in readiness for the big I. 0. 0. F. convention which opens in Win- nipeg on the 14111 of next month. The activities of the Bureau in this direc- tion have already been productive of substantial results with the interna- tional Real Estate convention to be held next year, and other important gatherings to be held in Manitoba's capital in 0914. During the past week the large and influential order known as the Knights of Pyhthias in convec- tion at Denver, Col., decided to make Winnipegtheir meetingplace in1904. Anothr ociety of wrl-wide renw has signified its intention of holding a biennial convention in this city, which is fast becoming one of the most popular cities of the continent for these fraternal gatherings, The Im- perial Grand Orange Council, who have just concluded their biennial con- vention in Glasgow, will meet in Win- nipeg in 1905. A strong effort will be made to secure for Winnipeg the next year's annual convention of the Loyal Order of Moose which next week meets in Kansas, Missouri. The order has a membership of nearly 400,000, the local branch having 3,000 members. The Supreme Lodge meeting, if it comes to Canada, will bring to Winnipeg be- tWeen 3,0000 and 40,000 delegates, members and their friends. The entire western membership of the order is supporting Winnipeg, and a large dele• gation of the local branch have left for Kansas with bright prospects of success in their endeavor. A most important addition to west- ern manufacturing concerns will be the Consumers Ice company, which has just decided to erect In Norwood, Win- nipeg, a plant costing $350,000. They have already secured a site of two acres. The product of the works will be clear, pure, hygienic ice, from natu- ral artesian water ,under the Harrison process which is in use in Chicago, De- troit, Columbus, Indianapolis,olis Minnea- polis Polis aed many other large cities in n the United States. The Norwood plant will be the first in Canada, The Consumers Ice company is made up of leading Winnipeg men, with the ex- ception of Alexander Harrison, of Chi- cago, who is one of the leading share- holders. The company intends to eommeuce operations at the earliest possible date, so the building will be rushed to completion, and the machin- ery installed without delay. The plant will consist of compressors and gener- ators of the very latest type. 'l'he o4. peony of the plant at the beginning Will be 300 tons a day, and about 4o people will be employed.
