berta is neither arid or desert. But
nature may often be assisted in her
great task of production, and this is
what the irrigation systems of the
Canadian West are doing.
In Alberta the Canadian Pacific.
Railway is developing the largest in-
dividual irrigation project on the Am-
erican continent, with an area Iarger
Veen the total irrigated area in either
Colorado or California,. Portions of
a tract of three million acres will
be included in this prosperous and
fertile so-called "dry belt" region.
The western section is already com-
pleted, including sixteen hundred
miles of canals and ditches. The
eastern section is in process of de-
rvelapment where twenty-five hundred
miles of canals and ditches will be
required for the service.
On April 25, 1914, the great Irriga-
tion dam at Bassano, Alberta, was
opened, Built across the Bow River,
eighty miles east of Calgary, the huge
structure, 7,000 Leet long, will con-
serve the water of the Bow for the
eastern section. Another great engin
eering work, whieh will serve the
same tract, is a giant aqueduct at
Brooks, thirty miles east, two miles
in length, which carries the waters
of a branch canal over a wide valley.

STEEL MONEY FOR BULGARS.
Germany Also Supplies Iron and Lead
Coinage.
Gradually the monetary systems of
the Central Powers are being radicolly
changed, but their specie and paper
now coming into circulation will be
valueless, except among themselves,
unless the conclusion of the war
should be in their favor.
There is no gold in circulation, and
silver is beginning to disappear .com-
pletely in some countries, notably in
Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey. Thus,
to replace specie, iron, steel and lead
are being introduced instead of copper
and silver. The Bulgarian Govern-
• ment has ordered $2,000,000 worth of
2 cent and 1 cent coins in steel and
lead. Moreover, about $3,000,000 are
to be shortly issued in small bank
notes in the respective value of 20
cents and 40 cents each. These small
bank notes are being printed in Ger-
many.
A first series of bank notes of the
face value of 96 cents, $1.92 and $3.84
apiece, and amounting altogether to
$5,000,000 nominally, are awaited by
the Bulgarian Treasury from Ger-
many almost immediately, as a first
instalment. Further daily deliveries
are to be sent to Sofia, representing
