CANADA'S CENSUS
d THiR1Y.TWO PER CENT IN.
CREASE IN THE PAST TEN
YEARS.

That Canada has come rapidly to
the front in the past ten years is am
ply shown in the results of the census
recently made public. The population
Of the Dominion is now placed at
7,081,S6 which with outlying points
to be heard from, may bring it up to
~ millions as compared with $751;.
315 in 1901. Though these figures are
large, they do not present a total as
large as was expected but they do
show a greater increase Of percentage
In population for the decade than any
similar increase in the United States.
The highest percentage ever reached
by the Republic "a 24T; the per-
centage of increase in Canada for the
decade is 1920. Thus 1T will be e

tains, have attracted numbers, which
has exceeded the most optimistic OF
the expectations of ten years ago.
Upon the prairies of the ten years
ago there was but a spare scattering

lumbia-362, 768 as against 17S,657 in

this a population of 1,643, 900 is little
more than discernible in point of num-
bers. The work through 1t has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; it's cities, Winnipeg
with 1855 0 Vancouver with upwards
of 100, 900; Calgary with $4,000; Ed

splendid cities-none better any
where; we'll maintained and equipped.
These have come with existence and
been built as they have been built by
reason of the splendid agricultural
country by which they are surround
ed. The population is scarcely dis
cernible. A population ten or twelve
times that shown by the recent
census could be easily maintained in
even greater wealth than that which
maintains the present numbers. There
Is certainly a wonderful future for
Western Canada and that which goes
to the development of the west will
enrich the last. This is the growing
time in Canada and what has been
done in the past ten years is but a
beginning. The next decade will
show a far greater advancement. In
the meantime Canada is bidding well
come the progressive and industrious
citizen. The invitation Is a standing
one. At the forthcoming land exposi-
ton in Chicago, Canada will have one
of the best exhibits of farm products
that has eyer been made and it will
be Well worth while inspecting it and
getting information from those who
may be in charge.

A FRIENDLY SUCCESS
ton FOR NEVADA

No region on this continent has
suffered so much from the opera
tions of "get rich quick" swind-
lers as the state of Nevada which
has repeatedly been made the
locus or starting point of wild
cat mining explorations at the
expense of the public. Tine people
of Nevada have come to realize
how great 10 the injury that these
practices entail on the legitimate
industry of the state, and they
have resolved to stop them as far
as they can. Probably no state in
the Union has enacted more
stringent legislation designed to
put bride on the activities of
mining stock swindlers. The
general attitude of the people is
thus outlined by a Nevada paper:
"fhe men who are in the mining
game in Nevada at present have,
for the most part, honest inten-
tons. They are keen to find Gre
and clever in the development of
their properties. There are prob
ably exceptions, but these, like
water, will find their proper level
in time. The day for swindlers
has passed. and Nevada will prove
to be decidedly unhealthy place
for any men or set of men who use
the methods of crooks in carrying
on their operations"
This is all true. but, unfortun-
ately, it scarcely covers the case.
The gang of wildcat swindlers
which used to make the Nevada
towns their base Of operations has
transferred its activities to tie
New York curb market and the
purlieus of Wall street where they
are unmoletesd, save for an
occasional raid by the postoffice
authorities. 1t would be well
worth while for Nevada to organ
ize and MAINTAIN a special detective
agency to pursue and prosecute
these swindlers wherever found

WILD DUCKS AGAIN
DYING IN UTAH

Hundreds of dead ducks are to
be found at the mouth of the
Weber river, says the Ogden
Examiner and it is believed that
an epidemic similar to the one of
last year again has broken out
among the birds.
G. P. Calver. chief of the
geography department of the local
forestry service, states that while
the number of wild ducks along
the lake and at the mouth of the
Weber river is not as large as a
year ago as many dead fowls are
to be found this year. He con-
siders it very likely that the birds
are dying from the same cause
that produced such havoc among
the webfooted fowls of last season.
Last year it was believed that
the cause of the disease was the
lack of fresh water. Mr.. Cavlert
states that this could not be the
cause of the disease this season as
the conditions are different and
there is apparently no shortage of
fresh water where the birds are
accustomed to feed.
Dead ducks when eaten by
coyotes are said to have caused
the death of the animals. Some
dogs are also said to have died
from eating the meat of the birds.
Because of this warning was
issued to al! person not to shoot
duck for the purpose of eating
them as many of the live birds
would dou otless be affected with
the same disease and might cause
the death of humans as well as
animals.

THE ATTENDANCE or :.
STUDENTS At UNIVERSITY

A. communication from DR..
Stubs gives the following
interesting facts concerning the
state university:
The attendance of students this
year shows a decided growth. On
the first of October last year the
University students numbered TIA,
this year it number 212 University
students. The increase in atten-
dance in the University is SO or
'21.5 per cent On the first of
October last year the University
High School had 80 students; this
year the University High School
numbers 76 or a loss of six
students, equivalent Ito z per
cent.
~ Last year the number in the
Freshman class was Sc; this year
it is IS. Last year the number of
Freshman and special students who
became regular was GO; this year
the number of Freshman and
special students who will become
regular is sc, a gain of 20 students
or 48 per cent. This increase in
the entering class il q sure indica-
ton of gradual but healthy growth
from this time OH. The Univers-
ity has now stable number of
students which will be increased
slowly but surely for the next few
years until it will lumber at least
400 University students.
IL may be interesting to see a
summary Of students by state and
a summary of students by counties
