General Business Conditions
in Canada
(Gathered by Bank of Commmea•ce) Several units of the metal and en -
The general level of business ac-
tivity during the past month appears
to have been about 10 per Dent. be-
low that of December, 1928. The
.causes have been so freely discussed
.during the last few months that it
is needless to repeat them. At pres-
ent business is still in the process of
readjustment consequent upon the
retarding influences of the last half
•of 1929 and, it is natural, therefore,
there should be irregularity in sev-
eral of its most important branches.'
Even the casual 'observer of cord's-
time, however, trust be impressed by
the .stabilizing faetems which, have
been brought into play. This •dots
not tn!ean that the recent !difficulties
'have been overcome or that business
is immediately te regain its former
swift pace; the effects of a decrease
in Western purchasing power, of the
•collapse of the ' suoek market, of
weak commodity markets and of
"`distress labour" at certain centres
are not easily removed. But while
gineering trades have new contracts
on hand which will keep themwell
employed for five or six months.
Other industrial conditions vary ac-
cording to the extent that the man-
ufacturers depend upon ono another
and upon certain markets; there is
great activity in some lines and half-
time operations in others. Unem-
ployment has caused concern at some
points owing to a declining local de-
mand for unskilled labour and reduc-
ed railway traffic, but dislocation of
labour, due to its displacement by
machine power, is a contributing
factor; the eitnation. in this respect
is rap worse thaii' in any other coun-
try if, in fact, it is as Serious. Coal
mining, while not in a flourishing
condition, is an a larger scale than
in the autumn when comparatively
mild weather•ileiayed the normal
Dow of orders. The metal mining
situation has se far shown but little
change beyond the storing of one Of
the lower-priced products; any slack-
ening in the operations of niome pro -
there ;are weaknesses in,the eeonomie sneers of baso metals consequent
:organization these have met cortin upon declining prices, would in the
nous resistance from other influ- ,course of time, be offset by the
commencement of ore treatment at
new properties wherie developennent
is steadily being carried to comple-
tion. It may be noted that the largel
Canadians base metal: ntiriers are a-
mong the best situated to maintain
high production schedules in the
present period. The position of gold
ptrpducers has been strengthened,
but, that of the silver mines has been
unfavourably affected by wealenless
in the price, of the white metal, al-
though a greater demand foo Cobalt
is helpful` to those cotn`panies which.

silver. The production of certain
non -Metallic materials has fallen off.
ences and the latter increase m
strength as time goes on. The result
is a growing confidence of the great
body of people iii its ability not only
to safeguard - itself against undue
stress, hut also to prepare for bet,
ter` times. This attitude is justified
and, so far as the future is concern.
•ed, is being shaped into practical
formin the plans of mealy large cor-
porations for extensive develoPemeht
of mining, metallarigigal, , mannfac-
tering and power facilities.;,
The iron and stdel made available
by domestic plants and by importa-
•tions was recently smaller' than, in
the latter part of 1928, but the iMan•
tiny was well above that required irk
decline in building operations and an
enlargement of` engineering projects.
An important development is the
upward trend of prices of some ag-
ricultural products (cattle, as well
as grain), which havel been held off
the market by farmers both in- the
East and in the Wiest. In •the De-
cember issue of this Letter a table
was shown of agricultural produc-
tion. Since then the Dominion Bur-
eau of Statisties has issued an es-
timate of values of field crops for
1927, 7928 and 1929 which is sum-
marized as follows. It is explained
by the Bureau that the values at-
tached to many crops do not repre-
sent actual sales, and, therefore, they
are not representative elf the total
income from field crops.

HONEY, WHAT IS IT?
Honey is an energy producing food
and in addition is considered to be
the bested all sweets. It conies di-
rect front nature unchanged and un-
treated by human agency. Honey
ey is valuable as a food because
practically all its sugar ie in invert-
ed form which is readily assimilattd
by the body and places no tax on the
digestive system as do most other
sugars. In addition to the sugars
it contains certain other elements
that are , essential to the human
body. As a sweet it: is' unsurpassed.
It is the only sweet that comes un.
changed from mtture, and was at one
nue, the world's only sweet. C. B.

Two churches and manses on skids,
