CROP AND TRADE CONDITIONS
THROUGHOUT THE DOMINION
•
Complete Reports Submitted On Conditiims ill the Vali,
ous Provinces of the Dominion at Annual Meeting
of the Bank of Montreal Will Be of Special, Interest
to Mercantile and Farming Communities.
• • • p • • ••• • • • I •
At the Annual Meeting of the Bank of Montreal complete
reports were submitted by the Su perintendentS of the Bank, deal -
ins with trade and farming conditions in the various provinces of
the Dominion. These reports cover the particular operations car -
tied out in the various sections of the country and on this account
become. of very special intcrebt t o the mercantile and farming
communities desirous of keeping in touch with the important devel-
opments that axe occurring throughout Canada.
We quote from the different reports as follows:
• QUEBEC.
Tlae ciit of lumber during the past
season was not as large as usual,
Practically all stocks have been sold
and shipped out. Prices were high.
Labor conditions show improvement
and a larger cut is looked foe this
winter. •
Tap demand for pulpwood from.
the United States was uneven, but
stocks have been well disPosed of and
high pekes are expected to be main-
tained.
The paper mills of the Province
tontinue to working to capacity, the
demand for newsprint and better
qualities of print papers exceeding the
supply.
Manufacturing in nearly all lines
has been generally satisfactory, al-
though production is still limited by
scarcity of skilled labor and raw
materials.
Hay and cereal crops were aver-
age. Root crops were large, but
potatoes suffered from rot. Pastur-
age was good, and dairy products
will show an increase.
With the exception of asbestos, there
is little mining done in the Proviiice.
Asbestos prices are good and ship-
ments are well maintained.
The fur business has been good,
and boot and shoe manufacturers find
difficulty in supplying the demand.
Shipbuilding continues active, a
number of large steel vessels hav-
ing been launched from different
yards during the year.
The wholesale Mid retail trade was.
most satisfactory; collections Were
good and failures show a decrease.
There have been no exceptional ex-
penditures during the year by the
Dominion or Proviricial Governments
and municipalities have limited dig-
buaseraents to necessary works. Frio-
tically no railroad construction, was
undertaken,
There is very little speculation in
real estate; vas lues and rentals are
both high,
General conditions, both in cities
and rural, districts, are good, with
no apparent •slackening in trade
since the termination of the war.
The housing problem is evetywhere
mite, and those alependent on a fixed
income are seriously affected by the
abnormal eost of all necessariee.
ONTARIO.
Manufacturing M Ontario has been
limited only by shortage or supplies
and disturbances in labor. Govern-
ment credits for good e sold to Eu-
rope have stimulated manufacturing,
and domestic demands have been in-
sistent. New industries have been
started, and a number of successful
manufacturing concerns in the United
States have been making enquiries
with the intention of locating in One"
tario.
Ontario farmers have been steadily
bettering, their position M recent
years, inatailing modern equipment
and improving their modes of living.
The past year has been one of fair
crops and high _prices. A wet spring
was followed by an exceptionally dry
summer, and grain crops, with the
exception of fall wheat, fell below the
average. Root crops were good; corn
and tomatoes were a record yield; the
season was poor for all fruit except
grapes. Cheese production showed a
falling off. There is a shortage of
hogs; sheep raising is on the increase.
The cattle situation Is somewhat un-
settled, owing to the limited amount
of feed available for carrying through
the winter,
The production 9f lumber has been
seriously reduced owing to shortage
of labor. 1019 has been an excellent
meaketing year, with heavy sates to
Great Britain and tlie .United States,
and a steady dornestic demand fon

The Thrill of Being Wet.
There le something rudimentary and
fundameetal about having water
oplashed down 'upon one and getting
completely and deliciously wet -not
. damp, not, melee, but wet, wringing
*wet. You yourself when a child never
elliOYed anything eo much as your
lira drenching in an unforeseen and
iinavoidable rainstorm -the thrill of
being wet, the cool drive of the water
on your nose, into your sleevee arid
down your neck, and the joyous shush
of eaaleed, waterlogged boots. Even
the tedium of being rubbed with alco-
hol, bundled up and warned. you
would catch your death did not di-
minish the event. You voted it bet-
ter than the time you fell off the
boat dock; it lasted longer,-Atlantac

To Open a pocketknife.
Opening pockeknives 18 often very
hard on finger nails, and a stiff hing-
ed penknife or jackknife is ;sciatica!,
ly useless to a boy if he can't open
it readily. Tear off a piece of news-
paper or writing paper about three
Inches equare. Fold it across once
and then slip the crease uocrer the
blade of the knife. Grasp the paper
firmly between the thumb an.d fore-
finger. Then pull steadily as if you
were opening the knife without the
paper. If you do not jerk it the paper
will not tear. In this way you can
open many a eusty blade that has
been' 'useless for months.

As Good as a 'Youth.
Workmen at a mill in Greencastle
are telling a good story regarding (me
of the workmen, It has been a rule of
the eonmany not to employ men over
a certain age.
A few days ago e Ivan living within
a stone's throw of the mill solicited
work, but Was turned down because of
his gray whiekere and his snow-white
hair. The "old" man was not daunted.
He felt he was still good for many
days of work, so he went to a drug
store, bought a bottle ef black hair
dye and soon had his whiteness a. jet
black. He again naked for work of
the same foreman and was aceepted
at once. Ile wits put to work and
made good from the start. Thot he
was worried because hie white hair
was growing, as also were his equally
white wb.iskers. Ile again bought a
second bottle of clye and need it to
hide his identity.
The "Old" man is still working his
eight hours a do, and Me official of
the company stated he had done snch
a good job he did not have to buy
hnother bottte of dye, but cauld hold
