'BY Edrxl wa Back niontreal April 7.—C; nada is rapidly overtaking the United -Stales as the leading pulp and paper producing count ry in the world, From. April 1914 to August 1919 government figures show Canadian companies engaged in that In- dustry floated to a total of $40,752,876 of new capital in various forms of sec urities: Of this amount $20,753,000 was placed in Canada, $17,800,000 in the United States and $1,199,876 in Great Britain, Of the remaining $1,000,000 probably. $800,000 was placed in the States and $200,000 in Canada. Addit- ional issues are of almost weekly occurr ecce, The bulk of the new capital is going' into the building of new Mills and the expanSinn of old ones. These under- takings nder- ak i 1 gs range in sine from developments p s itvolvitg an outlay of more than 820, 000,000 to very small pulp mills of limit cd capacity, A government census not yet issued in complete form, shows that in 1918 there were 94 such establishments in Canada. The capital invested teas $241, 344,700, The year's products were val- ed at $119,309,434 of which nearly 8100;000,000 worth were exported.

To do this nothing can equal: Baby's Own Tablets, They are a mild but thorough laxative, are absolutely safe and never fait to relieve: constipation and indi- gestion, colds and simple fever, Con- cerning them Mrs. Jules Fattquereau Nominingue, Que., writes:—"My baby was terribly constipated and suffered day and night I was advised to give hint Baby's Own Tablets and from the first they helped him and now at the, age of thirteen months he is a big healthy, happy boy."

WILL FARMERS PURCHASE THE TORONTO WORLD? Thought Effort to Acquire the Paper Will be Made, Ottawa, May 10. --The rumored ac- quisition by the agrarian interests of the Toronto World finds neither denial nor conftrnhation amongst members or that party at Ottawa, The .general feeling, however, is that any negotia- tions to that end would be opened from the publication centre of the grain growers at Winnipeg. During the past year the Grain Growers' Guide has been extending its influence and efforts have been made to establish a publication of a similar nature in tate Maritime provinces. In Ontario the Farmers' Sun, while a strong advocate of tate fanners' Interests is not direct- ly afliiiated wih the gram growers' movement. It is therefore considered' quite probable that an effort may be made to obtain a daily in Toronto, whose functions it would be to preach the gospel of the farmers throughout Ontario. Thereis a further rumor that the Liberals may endeavor to se- cure the paper, but its best informed circles this is not considered at all likely, "YESTERDAY."
