says: Business conditions were less
handicapped, weather and transporta-
ton having improved, and the oppor-
tunity to advance operations is encour-
agingly reflected in the weeks results.
These indicate increased deliveries of
commodities, better demand for neces-
stiles and future factory output, and
an enlarging use of bank accOmmo-
dation. Money remained in ample sup
ply, but the revived commercial bor-
rowing impaired more firmness to the
discount rate. The marketing Of farm
products was unusually heavy, and
values suffered slight impairment.
The markets for general merchan-
disc were we'll attended by outside
buyers, and transactions exhibited
larger volume than for the previous
week. The buying has emphasized
confidence in the approaching spring
trade. and many purchases were made
on a discount basis. Requests again
were numerous for prompt forwarding
to the interior of dry goods, footwear,
clothing and groceries.
Manufacturing branches have added
to the volume of production, and In
most Of the leading lines new bust
ness made further gain. Rails were
more freely ordered, and other railroad
requirements increased, notably In cars
and locomotives. Furnace output has
been augmented in response to heavier
demand, and the tonnage booked cx-
ceeded last weeks. Specifications Tor
structural steel were more promptly
srpslied and deliveries will be larger

of Settlers.
The splendid yields of wheat. oats
and barley produced by the farmers az
| Western Canada and the exca,lan+
prices received for the same. have
been the means Of giving an increa sod
interest throughout the United States
AS result the inquiries made of the
agents Of the Canadian Goyernmon+
| have nearly doubled over those Of tho
same period last year. Railroad com
panies are putting on increased car
rying capacity to meet the demand
made upon them for carrying passan-
gers and freight. Everything points to
most prosperous year. There is room
for hundreds of thousands additional
settlers, much new land having been
opened up for settlement this year
1t is quite interesting to look
through the letters received from tho
Americans who have settled in West
ern Canada during the past few wears
and considering the large number. if
is surprising how few there are who
have not succeeded. An extract from
a letter written by Mr.. Geo. w. Girls
void, of Red Deer, Alta, formerly
Of Greber, Mont, written on the 2d
of January, is as follows:
II am located one and one-half miles
from a beautiful lake ten miles long

stores, creamery and two postofices

good sleighing, as we just had a CHI
nook which has melted the roads and
laid bare the fields and pasture. There
are tine wheat, oats, barley and fax
raised here, also winter wheat and
timothy hay for export to British Co
lumbia. This is 4 mixed farming and
dairy country. This is the right time
to get a foothold in the Canadian
West, as it was some years ago in the
United States. We are free from wind

clear, soft we'll and spring waite. at
depth of from five to twenty-five
feet, and lots Of open overfowing

Telegraphic advices from Medicine
Hat say that seeding has commenced
at Medicine Hat, Lethbridge and 9TH
er points. At the former place the
temperature moderated gradually until
| on the 10Th the maximum was As and
the minimum %. Thermometer read
ings since then have been as follows:
goth, Al and 3S; Dist, "a and "a; ODD,
Sc and 80; 23d, 4S and 40; Oath, 4S
and 26.
During the last few days in Feb
ruary considerable ploughing was done
near Lethbridge. P. A. Pulley, re-
cent arrival from Montana, ploughed
and narrowed fifteen acres and e. Lal-
iborty about the same amount. Rev.
Coulter White has also been harrow
ing his farm. All report the ground
Bricklaying has also begun in town.
At Hartney, further east, on the 25th
of February, the sun was warm and
bright, wheeled carriages were in use
and the plowed fields look as if they
are ready for the press drills. There
is every appearance that spring has
arrived, but farmers do not wish to
be deceived by appearances and conse-
Quently have not commenced to use
their bluestone and seed wheat.
