that crowded the Studebaker yesterday

his band gave their concerts. had their
nerves twitched and tingled as if they
were in connection with a battery. II
is claimed that Creatore hypnotfzes
both his band and his hearers. There
is no going to sleep, no gossiping when
he is at the desk. He grips you and
holds you, and when he let's loose you
wonder whether you've had a good
time or not; and after you have con-
Guided that you have. and want some
more of 1t, you begin to marvel at his
endurance, Tone is the wireless me-
dunn he uses to reach you, but tbs

Canada Has Sufficient
Coal for 5000 Years
1t f1as Enough Agricultural land for the Set
thing of Millions.

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
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 46l mil
lion tons; sub-bituminous and Ignite
over 100 billion tons. The quantity
OF coal now annually mined in Canada
Is about II million tons. With an es-
t1mated quantity of unmixed good coal,
OF "a billion tons, it Would require
6,l66 years to exhaust the supply. If
b inferior grades were included, sup
ply would last for 14,575 years. OF
course the coal demands of Canada
will keep on increasing, but 1t will be
a good many years before the quantity
OF Canadian coal mined will equal
present output of the United States
mines. Their annual output is about
60O,0O0,000 tons. At that rate it
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

up of about four hundred thousand per-
sons a year (and 1t looks now as if this
number would be reached this year).

The rapid advancement Of railways

He is calculating what the increased
value of his holdings, as a result of a
successful crop, will add to his assets.
Already some fields Of wheat have been
harvested. barley has been cut, and
the yield is above his expectation. In
fact, the feeling at the time of writing
is that never in the history of any
country on the continent has there
been such a prospect of a large aver
age crop, all over the three central
provinces of Canada, as will be harvest
