We also sh a few partridge which eame avoun the camp investigating too closely The geese we sighted were flying to high and the prairie chicken wer scarce although we saw a few of th latter flying across the lake and th grain. fields. Our camp was pitehe where the Indians had a camp th winter before, the poles of their teepee were still standing as they had Id then and from the large cluantitie of Mooso hair lying around there wa no doubt the band had been o.i a big moose hunt, No doubt you will wish to know of Edmonton and what has ben doing since last yea were here. January and the first half of February was quite cold ,the thermometer registering forty-three below zero in the early part of the present month, then to- wards the middle of the month the oold suddenly abated and the tem- perature went up to fifty-seven above zero. • A range of temperature of one hundred degrees in less than two weeks was noticeable, especially in the coal bins but as our supply of coal is un- limited we do not have to worry like our friends in Saskatoon or Regina, Best tamp coal can be had, deliverers at your house, for $8.25 per ton. In the Edmonton Istria alone over one million tons of coal was mined last year, over fear Million tons being pained in Alberts,. It .is estimated that if A-..lberta Mined one hundred les as mti.cli a year as eve lisp at present, our coal supply would last over two thousand years. That will give you some little idea of the extent and possibilities of the coal, mining industries. In fact one -twelfth of the total known coal deposits of the world is credited to Alberta, Real Estate is dull and the chances are it will remain so until the close of this awful war. Over sixteen thous• and have enlisted in Edmonton and district and in the province about one out of every fifteen of the popul- ation has enlisted. We can scarcely hope for any advance in real estate when so many of our men are leaving to f ht our battles ill Jure anti the ret of its at home are doing all we can in the fight of military despotism as represented by the Kaiser. For after all it is a war of Democracy against Militarism and Democracy must win if it takes the last Canadian to attain that end. The Alberta Legislature opened last Thursday, the main bilis to be considered during the session will be the ratification of the Prohibition bill which passed on a plebiscite vote of almost two to one last July and which comes into effect July ist this year, Whisky is selling at about fifty per cent. discount in town these days. The other bill of importance is the Woman Suffrage bill which. will give women equal rights with Ymen in voting, holding office, etc. Although little building has gone on in the city during the last eighteen 7nonth.s, still building in the country distri Is has gone on rapidly owing to the large grain yield in the province last year. The average wheat yield being over thirty-six bushels to the acre according to government ste is i 1 tics. BEd Iway development bae gone on timidly even in spite of dull times.

PFAFF DASHWOOD Boot & Shoe��� a solitary line of railway operating into Edmonton from the south via Calgary, now there are fourteen lines radiating out from the city, the above are roada already constructed, I have not taken into account the proposed and projected lines whose number is legion. You can now take a sleeping car at Edmonton and travel over the Edmonton, Dunvegan & B. 0. Rail- way to Peace River which used to be known as Peace River Crossing and by the end of March the railway will have reached the Grand Prairie set- tlement, 420 miles from Edmonton. When my friend, Robert Cochrane, went into Grand Prairie fine years ago with his outfit of supplies, it took him forty-two days to make the trip, now even with a slow train tho 'trip . could be made in as many hours, On one of the busses coming from the E. D. & B. C. depot the other evening an exasperafed passenger who had just run up to Peace River, complained that the railway was the fiercest ever, that it was out for money and graft and nothing else, his seat companion an old timer of the north said, I beg to differ with you it took us thirty days to meke the trip from Edmonton to Peace River when first I visited. the north, we think the railway is just about all right. We had a little touch of military rule in the city a week ago when soldiers with loaded rifles and fixed bayonets were stationed on our prin- cipal streets to prevent rioting similar to what had taken place in Calgary when several resturants were wrecked Lttekily however no damage was done here and everything is quiet again. Guards are also stationed at our par. - lament buildings and no one to al - owed inside without a guard accare- 1 anying hint unless he is known. Phis is about all for this dille.
