A report dealing with the coal re-
sources Of Canada has been issued by
the Dominion Department of Mines.
The estimates given are only based on
what is known. In the western and
northern regions, which have been
little explored, there may be vast de-
posits of which nothing whatever is
known at present. The officials of the
department estimate that of btu
minous coal there is in Canada 1914
billion tons; Of anthracite 461 mil
lion tons; sub-bituminous and Ignite
over 100 billion tons. The quantity
of coal now annually mined in Canada
is about IL million TONS With an es-
timated quantity of unmixed good coal,
of IA billion tons, it would require
6,166 years to exhaust the supply. If
the inferior grades were included, sup
ply would last for 1855 years. OF
course the coal demands of Canada
will keep on increasing, but it will be
a good many years before the quantity
present output of the United States
mines. Their annual output is about
500,000,000 tons. At that rate 1t
would take only 145 years to exhaust
the estimated Canadian supply Of
good coal, and about $50 years to get
to the end Of the total supply. And
with the increasing population, made
up of about four hundred thousand per-
sons year (and it looks now as If this

thousands of box cars. The govern
ment agents and the railways are max
ing arrangements for from fifty to six
1 ty thousand extra farm hands in order
that the crop may be successfully and
quickly harvested, business men are
laying in larger stocks than usual, real
estate men are active, preparing for
| the rush of business that Is sure to
follow, and everywhere there is the
note of optimism, which seems to be
perfectly justifiable.
| There is, as has been said, vast
area Of the country still open for set
Element and homesteading lying in the
center north. Speaking of this part
a writer, who made the trip when the
crop was in its green stage, said:
"Just now, the whole country is q
beautiful sight, as it presents itself in
full dress Of living green, varied in
shade, many places elegantly fringed
and interspersed with pleatings OF
shrubbery and patches Of sweet scent
ed flowers in rose, yellow, white, pink,
scarlet, cardinal and purple. In trav-
cling over the virgin soil, / have seen
some Of the most charming rolling
prairies, sloping hills, deep ravines,
mirrored lakes, artistic flower fields,
and natural parks that one could wish
to behold, and all placed there without
the aid of man. The land in general
| is heavily matted with grass, mixed
with vetches and pea vines, nearly up
to the knee, and many millions OF
acres Of which are going to waste
while beef, pork and mutton are soar
ing at prices heretofore unknown. The
comparatively small acreage under cul-
tivation reminds one of few small
garden patches.
when we consider the estimated
crop of 30O,000,0OO bushels of wheat
for 1912, to be produced on these west
ern prairies from these garden patches,
some faint idea can be formed by an
imaginative mind as to the immense
possibilities and rich heritage Of glo-
rious western Canada"
The estimate of the wheat crop, as
made by the writer quoted, is excess
sive, but with even $50 million bushels,
there will be great deal of satisfac.
ton on the part of the settlers.

How a Woman May

The woman who wants to look young
must taboo massage creams and liquid

Holmes Bates. the well-known author, TO
a Chicago Journal representative.
Reputable physicians have declared
that II she INDUCES in artificial methods

A perfectly natural method OF treating a
bad complexion is by using ordinary mer-
collzed wax: this adds nothing to the
complexion. but removes It instead. This

off the sallow or blotchy outer skin In fine
particles, gently, without hsrmins the

appearance. The brilliantly beautiful
complexion thus obtained Is q new one
