part ot. the Winter season /arts been

note seeding bas begun in many parts of

settled weather.
nfn RUSK INTO WEST,
There is also an unprecedented rash
of population into the West. Whatever
the Springthee been, there would have
been a big Nob this year, but the early
arrival ot fine weather has undoubtedly
helped to swell the rate of travel into the
West and to bring many people here in
March who otherwise would not have
come until•Aprll or May. The rush is
partioalarty great from the Old Country-
and the United States, and the immigra-
tion authorities look for more tban too
taco farmer, front the States to enter
Western Canada tbis year. Already
there is very heavy traffic over all roads
leading to tlhe points ot entry, and even
comparatively small firsts who have
been pushing their land sales in the
States for the past year, are to bring in
their clients by the trainload early in
April. i '
Tete entovsaND D1EN NEEDED
The West needs all who will come.
So early as this, the cry for farmhelp
bas been sounded and there is a derth of
help to get the crop of (9lo seeded. If
ten tboneaaci farm laborers were to come
into the. West at once, alt would be em-
ployed, ed

in their, seeding operations. The high
prices and Rood crops of the, past two
years have promoted wheat growing to
such au extent that every man with land
at bis disposal will plant every acre that
labor, and skill in farming work, can
bring under crop. To this end plowing
and seeding is being carried on in ills.

OTHER. LINES ARE ROSY, T00
The hall of the building trades and
railroads for labors is scarcely less in-
sistent, In every city of the Nest,
there will be very great progress made
in the erection of new buildings this
year. With scarcely any pause in tbe
work by reason of the Winter,, building
operations have been taken up in this
city with great vigor, and hundreds of
new structures are well under way, al-
ready. Building permits to the amount
of :$z,000,000 have been issued, and fill-
ing is going on rapidly. A unique
feature of new construction work to be
done here this Summer is the taking
down of the building nowoccupied by
the Canadian Bank of Commerce and its
removal to Regina, where it will be re.
erected ;, a splendid bonding is being
up fur the bank's Winnipeg offices.
It is a striking illustration of the re-
markable growth which

a building -which bas

e ected a few years since at a cost
of $zso coo, so soon should be judged
inadequate for the business of the bank
and be replaced by an edifice which un-
doubtedly will'cost at least four times as
much as tbe former bank quarters in this
city.

remarked at Winnipeg 'while be was
