TRADE REVIVAL IN
WESTERN CANADA
Not a Myth but an Actuality

The trade revival IN MANITOBA, Sae-

and not a myth. There is today q
spirit OF optimism in the air. Just as
two years ago there prevailed the op-
posite spirit of pessimism.
A general trade revival has been
felt in every department Of business in
the Prairie Provinces. The agricul-
turists are in better shape than they
have ever been before In their lives.
No farmers of any country are in bet
ter financial condition and in a more
general state OF prosperity than are
the farmers of Manitoba, Saskatche-
wan and Alberta. The farmers have
harvested record crop-a crop which
enriches them to the extent of some
thing over 100000.
In the cities the prosperity of the
country has been reflected. Every

implement dealers find business good
The banks and other collection houses
find collections satisfactory, and finan-
cial men declare that westerners are

the bank clearings have been the larg-
est In history, exceeding some weeks
the figures of Montreal and Toronto.
The grain shipments have been the
biggest in the history of Winnipeg and

order houses have had big year, the
rush of fall orders exceeding all previ-
GUS years and taxing the capacity OF

The financial press recognizes that
the tide has turned in western Canada.

The condition OF western Canada at
the close OF 1915 is one of optimistic

COMMITTEE ENDS
LABORS ON ROAD
LAW FOR COUNTY
NUMBER CHANGES AND AMEND.
MENTS ARE SUGGESTED TO
THE LEGISLATURE.
ADD 70 POWER CENTRAL BOARD
May Divide The Work House Force
Into One or More Sections and Use
Same for Maintenance Of the Special
Highways.

Having practically finished its task,
the special Joint committee on changes
in and amendments to the county road
law, adjourned on Monday afternoon
to meet on Monday, January 8, at D
o'clock, the day that the County Court
will convene in quarterly session. The
committee will meet then to formally
adopt and sign the report which it has
directed to be written for submission
to the court.
A large number OF amendments to
the existing road law have been sug-
gested. II these are approved by the
County Court the county attorney.
Hon. W. c Whitthorne, will be request
ed to draft bills to be introduced in
the Legislature to carry them into ef.
feet.
In the main the present system of
road management in the county is not
only continued but it. is strengthened.
The powers OF the central authority,
the county road commission are add
ed to rather than taken FROM The
idea Of central board, having COM
plete control of all the road work is
carried more effectively into the pro-
posed new law. Not only will the
county road commission have charge
of the work house and its road con-
struction work, but this board will
have the power to divide the work
house into as many sections as may
be deemed wise and expedient and
use the several sections either for the
construction of new highways or for
the maintenance OF the special high
ways of the county.
1t was the idea Of the committee
that ultimately after possibly a year
or two at the outside, the work house
force will be used almost exclusively
for maintenance of the most frequent
ly travelled special highways, those
running to the county seat.
Another change of Importance sug-
gested is that of the commutation
rate Under the present law hands
suhiect tO road dutV NAV commute at
the rate of sixty cents per day or So
for the year. Under the proposed
change they will be required to COM
pute at the rate Of eighty cents per
day.
