The district is well supplied with

the coal mining field and the metal

limited to the extreme eastern part
of the district, and there are no me-
tals there, The rest of the district
is rich in metals, but hasno coal.
There are three known bituminous
coal areas in Canada, two of thein on
islands at the extreme -dos of the
country, Cape Breton Island at•the
eastern end of the country and Van-
couver Island at the western end,
and between these two islands no bi-
tuminous coal is produced save on
the slopes of the »Sato chain of the
Rockies, the great bulk coming from
the Crow's Nest field.
The mines of the Crow's Nest were
opened in 1898, since which time
they have produced millions of tons

now in excess of 3,000,000 tons. The

The Local Paper
TOWN WEEKLY PERFORMS REAL

THAT IS WORTHY OF' CITIZENS'

By George M. Murray
(Editor of Farm and Moine)
11 is the day of the weekly paper.
All the world is getting down lo busi-
less. Waste is being eliminate:1 wages
are going up, costs are goitre up.
Shortage of newsprint is going to work
a great change in the newspaper busi-
ness.
Years .ago, newspapers slammed each

tacked cacti other. Now.sda,a most

If a politican wants space in a pe-
per to -day, he pays for it just as a

Our great dailies are no longer cham-
pions of parties or organs of individuals
They are rather great impersonal in-
stitutions for circulating what is known
as news. News of general interest goes
in certain columns, the best and most
interesting news goes In the advertis-
ing columns.
Never in a hutfdred years has the
weekly paper occupied the place it
has to -day in the hearts of the people.
it takes a fortune to launch and fin-
ance one of the big dailies; but the
weekly {taper is an institution which
can be financed upon a comparatively
small capital. it Is not the money in
a weekly paper which makes it im-
portant in a community; it is the brains
behind the thing, the heart, the per-
sonality?'
It is not the circuh:kion of the week-
ly paper which makes it a great force
In ibe community, it Is the policy of
the paper, the detractor of the men
associated with it.
While the great dailies publish long
accounts of the doings of the chancel-
loaies of Europe, the modern well -
edited weekly confines its attention to
valuable work newer at hand.
Its field is near to the earth, b does
