tutes in the fur line than during the coming
seasons.
The worlds prosperity and it's rapid in
crease In population are, of course. the chief
causes Of the extinction OF fur. AS recently
as ten years ago the people OF the United
States were not counted among the great
buyers Of fur. Now the majority OF women
among ninety million people are purchasers
of fur OF one kind or another. Five years
ago London was the worlds greatest fur cen
ter. with Paris close second. Today, so
enormous has the demand for fur become in
this country as we'll across the sea, that
there are over 5000 establishment s for the
treatment OF fine furs and the mcking OF fur
garments In New York City alone.
London and Paris have now taken second
and third places in the actual making OF fur
garments though London handles more
fur than the other two combined. Last year
the value Of New York's finished" output was
nearly s2O.OO0.O0O. and fully sixty per cent.
of this was represented by the furs which
few years ago were considered almost worth
less.
Three years will clean out the cheaper
class of fur" said Montreal buyer to me,
land then the real famine will be at hand"
This passing OF the old romance OF fur Is
marked not only by the pathos of the furred
things themselves but by that OF the wild
and picturesque life of those thousands OF

If the wild and what It holds in the thought
that at least in 4 great part Of the far Cana
dian wilderness the picturesque fur-hunter
will never. like the courier du bois, quite die
out In country one-third large as the
whole OF Europe railroads and civilization will
never go. This vast wilderness region. long
described as waste stretches from the
coast OF Labrador. through Ungava skirts

Mackenzie Land and the polar seas.
1t is a land where for six months out OF the

fur companies, buyers, and trappers. But
few facts are necessary to show at what ruth
less pace the slaughter of fur animals has
gone on during the past decade 1t was not
long ago that 10000 skins OF the sea otter
were taken from the Aleutian Islands each
year. Today there are less than 400 skins Ia

royal blood of Europe Twenty years ago II
was estimated that seal herds OF the Pry-
biloffs numbered over five millions. Today.
in spite OF international treaties for their
protection, there are not more than 100000
seals on the island About 10000 skins
were taken last year. and SO relentless was
the slaughter on account of the princely sums
offered for the fur that 1000 baby seals died
during the season. chiefly OF starvation be
cause OF the death OF their mothers.
The glossy little wood marten Is dying out.
Four years ago I met two Canadian trappers
who were coming down from the upper New

IT IS A MISTAKE

Many have the idea that anythins
will sell II advertised strong enough.
This Is q great mistake. True.
few sales might be made by advertis-
ing an absolutely worthless article
but 1t Is only the article that 10
bought again and again that pays.
An example Of the big success OF a
worthy article Is the enormous sale
that has grown up for Cascarets
Candy Cathartic. This wonderful rec
ord Is the result of great merit sue
cessfully made known through per-
sistent advertising and the mouth-to-
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carets by It's friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pi-
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub
lfc, by marketing fake tablets similar
in appearance to Cascarets. Care
should always be exercised In pur-
chasing well advertised goods, espe-
cially an article that has a national
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow .

TEN MILLION PEOPLE
IN THE CANADIAN
WEST BY 1920
"Toronto STAR" Dec. 10th, 1910.


The prediction Is made that before
1920 Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Al
berta and British Columbia will have
ten million people. II is made not by
q sanguine Western journal but by
that very sober business newspaper,
the New York Commercial. 1t Is
based upon actual observation, upon
the wheat-growing capacity of the Ca
madam West, and upon the prospects
of development following the build
ing of railways. The writer shows
how the position of leading wheat
market Of the world passed from
Milwaukee to Minneapolis and thence
to Winnipeg. Canadas wheatgrow-
ing belt is four times greater than
that of the United States, and only
i've per cent Of Canada's western agri-
cultural area is under cultivation.
There are 170,000,000 acres Of wheat
lands which will make these Western
Provinces richer. more populous. more
dependable for food supplies than the
Western Statea can ever become. The
center Of food supremacy will change
to Canada. and rs years more will
give this country 100000 popula
ton west Of Ontario.
All these estimates of population
are In the nature Of guesses, and must
not be read too literally. But the
enormous area Of wheat-growing land.
the rapid construction of railways,
and the large volume Of immigration
are facts which must be recognized.
They point to the production Of an
ever-increasing surplus Of wheat and
other cereals. However rapidly the
urban. the industrial and commercial
population Of Canada may increase.
the increase of home consumption IL
hardly likely to keep pace with that
OF the production OF wheat; for q sin.
gle acre of wheat will provide for the
average annual consumption Of four
people.
While production In Canada is thus
running ahead Of consumption at
prodigious rate. consumption In the
United States is overtaking produc-
ton, and the surplus for export ia
growing smaller year by year. II Is
true that the limit Of actual power to
produce wheat is as yet far away.
By methods of intensive cultivation,
such as prevail in France, the produc.
ton could be greatly increased. But
with the overlooking granary Of Can.
ada SO close at hand, II seems likely
that our neighbors will begin to i'm
port from us, turning their own en-
ergies more largely to other forms OF
agriculture.
II must be remembered that while
the Northern States resemble Canada
In climate and products, the resem.
blance diminishes as you go south.
