on the east of the tracks are valued
at $155,000. The new Elks club is in
cluded in the estimate and the value
of the land and building with furnish

forced to make estimates for the COM
ing year and our estimates of extern
sions for Kenosha will be based on
serving this population of $4,000 peo-
pie with the additions of buildings as
shown in the report. We have not
over estimated in any way. 1t is pos
sible that some of the estimates we
have made will be lower than the act
ual cost of construction. A year ago
Manager Dye, in charge of the Keno
sha Office estimated the increase in
the number of phone stations for this
year at $50. Every one of these two
hundred and fifty were installed before
the first of August. I am now esti-
mating the increase in phone stations
for the coming year at 400. If we can
have just an even break in luck we
hope that the new plant will be ready
within month and with this plant we
should be able to handle this large in
crease of business in manner entirely
satisfactory to the people. We have
been hard hit by business conditions.
Cable which was usually delivered in a
month has been ordered for more than
twelve weeks and everything else con-
nected with construction work is tied
up in the same way. However, we
feel that our troubles are pretty nearly
over and that by the end of the month
of September the new plant will be
ready for use. -
The most interesting part of the sur
vey made by the company is the show
ing of the vast additions planned to
Kenosha factories. It shows plans for
large additions to the plant of the
American Brass Company, Simmons
Company, Jeffrey Company, Peter
Pirsch Company and smaller additions
to all the other big factories in the
city. Much of this work is now under
contract and the other work mentioned
in the survey has reached the stage
where contracts are to be let. Most
of the factory building is to be carried
forward during the winter months
These plans show that the winter of
1916 is going to be the busiest in the
history of the building trade of the
city.

A farmer of Monarch, Alberta,

hogs at the high price of eleven cents

made a short time ago at Calgary, and

WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in a highly
hourishing condition and is bound in
a very short time to become much
more important. The wal has created
a great demand for that article, and
It's use abroad has given it a lot of
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian
who, having used it, is quick t. APP
preciate it's value. This means that
after the war there will be a demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. AS a matter of
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese a is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an TX
cellent year because the high price

crn Canada has all the natural
sources for the making of cheese,
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and in time it is bound to
become one Of the finest cheese coun-
tries of the continent.
The lower foothills of Alberta, used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark.
The cool nights mean the better
keeping of 1nilk and cream and
cheese, and that is a great thing for
the industry, especially when COM
bined with possibilities of cattle feed
such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one, and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof
