Canadian immigration Statistics.

During the last ten years Canada has
received nearly 1000, 900 immigrants, OF
whom approximately 100000 were from
the United Kingdom and 100000 from
the United States. Up to the close Of
the fiscal year ended March 81. 1911,
the total was 1,714,326 for the decade.
Since then nearly 100000 more have
arrived, divided about equally between
American and British immigrants.
About IS per cent Of the immigrants
arriving from the United States have
been farmers who for the most part
have settled in the prairie provinces.
Thirty-eight per cent Of the total num-
Der from the United States made en-
80 per cent of the European arrivals
were farmers or farm laborers, while
25 per cent were classed as general
laborers and nearly the same per-
centage as mechanics. The influx Of
negroes has totaled q little more than
400, while 5000 Hindus have come. OF
the British immigrants approximately
SOC, 600 have been English and Welsh,
10000 Scotch, and about $1,000 have

BUSINESS PICKS UP.

The commercial agencies report
steady improvement Of business indi-
Gated by reports gathered by them
from leading industries and trade CEN
tiers. Operations in pig iron are en-
larging, bank clearings have gained,
New England textile mills have re-
sumed operations, improved demand
for drygoods is reported both by job
Ders and in the primary markets, many
structural iron mills have advance
orders that viii keep them occupied for
months. woolens are in better inquiry,
shoe trade shows further Improvement,
and the conclusion of the business
lookouts is that business prospects are
Well TO the good tho the present price
situation is combining purchases in fin
ished lines TO present and actual needs.
The consequence Of small orders is
small profits for the cost Of production
of handling is proportionally greater
on small volume than of larger VOL
umes of business
Crop reports are a factor in the i'm
proved situation. Both the United
States and Canada will furnish good
crops. Corn will return a large yield
despite the predictions Of the past
months. Cotton will probably return
more money TO the growers than any
previous cotton crop. The threshing
machines have disproved the assertion
Of small grain failure The harvests
were fairly good.
Labor troubles which lowered da-kly
ter days ago have Iightened and show
less seriously. The threatened railroad
strike loses most Of its threatening as
pect when it is repudiated in advance
by the central body of organized labor.
If there shall be no great strike there
will be no serious obstacle to reason
able expansion OF general business and
in the face of a presidential election
year wherein the balance of power
swings more nearly to a level for some
time reasonable expansion is all that
should be looked for or attempted.

farmers and apple growers of the state
to turn their surplus product into cider

all common vinegars and is always in

the demand will not be greater the

A policy of national support of the
good roads movement once undertaken
would have no end. The annual good
roads appropriation would absorb any
surplus revenue that might be accuNu-
lated and would prevent the govern
ment from branching out in any other
direction. It would limit the develop
ment OF the waterways. which is more
especially the duty Of the federal
power.
Nor is there any necessity for fed
eral aid to the good roads movement.

states it Is making satisfactory pro-
gress by means of state aid. In time
other states will adopt this method OF
encouraging local improvements. All
we need in Iowa is a state commission
with sufficient powers and the diver
sion of certain state revenues into a
fund to be distributed back to the
townships under certain we'll guarded
conditions.
