a painful, sometimes dangerous
spreading crop.

side after he had entered.
When Mr.. Hoover failed to return to his
home within a reasonable time investiga- l.
ton was made. The front door of the

Canadian Water Routes.

The Canadian census bureau estimates
the increase in the population Of the
provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta during the last three years
at 800, 900. As only las, 100 Of the Euro
pean and British immigrants have gone
to the West, it IL assumed that about
one-half Of the new settlers have come
from the United States. This tallies
with the yearly returns Of the immigra-
ton officials. The arrivals from the
United States this year are reported as
greater than ever before.
In anticipation Of continuing increase
in the population OF the prairie prov
inces the Government Ia busy with i'm
provement of the commercial high
ways under its control. The progress
made by the dredgers seems to warrant
the prediction that the end Of this year
will see a thirty foot channel from the
Gulf OF st. Lawrence to Montreal.
From Montreal westward there is now
a fourteen foot navigable highway to
the lakes. The Department Of Marine
at Ottawa has announced that it will
next year undertake actively the dredg-
ing of the st. Lawrence channel to a
depth of thirty-five feet. At present
there is nothing certain about the water
route west of Montreal except the fact
that within a few years, whether by the
Welland Canal or a Georgian Bay canal
or by some other route, going
vessels will load at Port Arthur.
About the time that New York makes
its final payment for the digging Of
its SOL ,OOo, 900 ditch Canada will be
shipping bulk cargoes from Port Ar
thur to Liverpool, and the rapid gain
in population in the prairie country is
an assurance that there will be cargoes
to shin,
