uted us follows: New Brunswick, 3ST,-
S39; Nova Scotia. 523,S37; Prince Ed

613,00S; British Columbia. 23.363 );
Yukon, 4.162; Northwest territories,
6,6S4, and Canadian navy, 4S5. The
gain for the whole Dominion during
19l0-192O, was 100000 or 215 per
cent. The war cost the lives of 56,6SO
Canadians killed in action, while 49,
600 more died from indirect causes
The percentage increase in population
is the same as that for Australia, while
the increase for New Zealand 20 per
cent was very little behind In the Union
of South Africa the increase was 1872
per cent. The Prairie provinces made
the most pronounced gain in Canada,
Alberta showing a SO per cent in
crease; Saskatchewan over SO per
cent, and Manitoba, 33 per cent. For
the next ten years the unit of distribu-
tion for determining the membership
