Larger School Buildings Requ red.

Owing to the recent large influx of population into Western Canada it has become absolutely necessary in many parts of Manitoba, Assiniboia, Saskatchewan and Alberta to increase the school accommodation. In many places buildings have been erected that are only half occupied. This is perhaps as good evidence as will be found not only of their satisfaction with their present School system and their confidence that It will remain as it is, but also of their firm belief in the future expansion of the country, in increased immigration and it further indicates that they have little fear that the well-established rate of births in civilize 1 coiniuuniUe:wlll not be maintained there. The free homestead laws and th< cheap railway lands offer great Induce ments, which are openiug up the nev settlements. Agents of the governmeu of Canada are actively at work in di: ferent portions of the States for tb purpose of giving information to poss ble settlers, and advertisements ar now appearing in a large number of p; pen, giving the names and location of these agents.

Infectious.

Nansen and ills companions, during the three years that they were in the Arctic regions, never caught a cold, yet they were exposed to cold, fatigue aud wet feet, aud generally wet to a degree which any one who lives In a warm home cannot realize. Their clothes were so saturated with perspiration that they froze by day into a solid mass of ice, and even cut into the flesh. At night when they get Into their sleeping bags, to use the correspondent’s words, ’the first hour was spent In thawing, and they lay shivering until their clothes became wet and soft and eventually comfortable and warm.” Yet hese men, exposed in this way, never rot cold, nor did their health suffer in my way from the exposore. Of course hey were all very strong men. They . ere able to withstand the cold In the vrctlc regions, but when they reached ivilization they all caught cold. Nauru's deduction from this Is, in his own ords, “there is, of course, no doubt hat cold is an infectious disease.”

A Wonderful Care.

Wright City, Mo., Dec. 30.—Medical men are still wondering over the Symes case which has aroused such a widespread interest in tlds neighborhood. Mr. Joseph G. Symes had suffered very severely with Inflammatory Rheumatism, enduring pains which were something terrible and which made It altogether Impossible for him to work by day or rest or sleep at night. In spite of all treatments he grew worse and his case seemed to defy all the usual remedies. He began a treatment of Dodd's Kidney Pills and very soon noticed a marked improvement which increased as he kept on till six boxes were used when he found himself without a trace of pain or ache. He Is now able to work all day and sleep all night and liis rapid and complete recovery Is regarded by the doctors as little short of a miracle.

Stand tip When Fitting Shoe*. “People would find lefts difficulty with ready-fnade shoes,” says an experienced salesman. “If they would stand up to fit them on, Instead of sitting down. Nine persons out of ten, particularly ladies, want a comfortable chair while they are fitting a shoe, and It Is with the greatest difficulty you can get them to stand for a few minutes, even after the shoe is fitted. Then, when they begin walking about, they wonder why the shoes are not so comfortable as they tvere at first trial. A woman’s foot is considerably smaller when she sits In a chair than when she walks about Exercise brings a larger quantity of blood Into the feet, and they swell appreclablyvThe muscles also require certain space. In buying shoe* this fact should be borne in mind.”

The Beet Sugar Industry.

A most Important article, giving Messrs. Oxnard’s and Cutting’s view* on the beet sugar industry In this country, appeared on the editorial page of the New York Evening Post of Dec. 12, and as every household in the land is interested in sugar the article will be of universal interest:

“The Evening Post bids the heartiest welcome to every American Industry that can stand on its own bottom and make its way without leaning on the poor rates. Among these self-support-ing industries, we are glad to know, is the production of beet sugar. At all events, it was such two years ago. We publish elsewhere a letter written in 1899, and signed by Mr. Oxnard and Mr. Cutting, the chiefs of this industry on the eastern side of the Rocky Mountains, showing that this was the happy condition of the trade at that time. If parties masquerading aB beet sugar producers are besieging the President and Congress at this moment, and pretending that they will be ruined if Cuban sugar is admitted for six months at half the present rates of duty, their false pretenses ought to be exposed. “The letter of Messrs. Oxnard and Cutting was probably written for the purpose of Inducing the farmers of the Mississippi valley to go more largely into the cultivation of beets for the sugar factories. This was a laudable motive for telling the truth and showing the large profits which awaited both the beet grower and the manufacturer If the industry were perseveringly and intelligently prosecuted. To this end it was pointed out that farmers could clear $65 per acre by cultivating beets, and might even make SIOO. But In order to assure the cultivator that he would not be exposed to reverses by possible changes in the tariff, they proceeded to show that the Industry stood in no need of protection. “The beet sugar Industry, these gentlemen say, ‘stands on as firm a basis as any business in the country.’ They point out the fact—a very Important one—that their product comes out as a finished article, refined and granulated. It is not, like cane-sugar grown in the Went India islands, a black and offensive paste, which must be carried In wagons to the seaboard and thence by ships to the United States, where, after another handling, it is put through a costly refinery, and then shipped by rail to the consumer, who may possibly be In Nebraska, alongside a beet sugar factory which turns out the refined and granulated article at one fell swoop. Indeed, the advantages of the producer of beet sugar for supplying the domestic consumption are very great. We have no doubt that Messrs. Oxnard and Cutting are within bounds when they say that ‘sugar can be produced here cheaper than it can be in Europe.’ The reasons for this are that—

“ ‘The sugar industry Is, after all, merely au agricultural one. We can undersell Europe In all other crops, and sugar Is no exception.' “It follows as naturally as the making of flour from wheat. If we can produce wheat cheaper than Europe, then naturally we can produce flour cheaper, as we do. “But the writers of the letter do not depend upon a-prlorl reasoning to prove that they can make sugar at a profit without tariff protection. They point to the fact that under the McKinley tariff of 1890, when BUgar was free of duty, the price of the article was 4 cents per pound. Yet a net profit of $3 per ton was made by the beet sugar factories under those conditions, not counting any bounty on the home production of sugar. They boast that they made this profit while working under absolute free trade, and they have a right to be proud of this result of tbelr skill and Industry. Many beet sugar factories had been started in bygone years, back in the sixties and seventies of the nineteenth century, and had failed, because the projectors did not understand the business. Since tli4n great progress lias been made, both here and abroad, In the cultivation and manipulation of the beet. What was impossible thirty years ago Is new entirely feasible. The Industry Is already on a solid and enduring basis. There are factories in the United St Aten, these gentlemen tell us In their letter, capable of using 350,000 tons of beets per annum at a profit of $3 per ton, and this would make a profit of $1,000,000 as the income to be earned under absolute free trade. “It must be plain to readers of this letter, signed by the captains of tlic beet sugar Industry, that the people In Washington who are declaiming against the temporary measure which the President of the United States urges for the relief of the Cuban people, are either grossly Ignorant of the subject, or are practicing gross deception. The tenable ground for them Is to say: ‘Other people are having protection that they do not need, and therefore we ought to have more than we need.’ This would be consistent with the letter of Messrs. Oxnard and Cutting, but nothing else is so."

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL

TJ ~ j~l Bradstreet’s annual reNeW YOrK. vlew of American trade, 'finance and industry shows that 1901 has established the highest record of the last five years of commercial expansion enjoyed by the United States. The year has seen transacted an aggregate of general business, as reflected in bank clearings, far in excess of any preceding period; immense increase in outputs of coal, ore, iron, steel, leather, lumber and a multitude of other branches; freight transportation facilities' insufficient to handle the volume of business offered, and a “volume of holiday business passing all previous bounds both in quantity and quality.” Present estimates indicate that the earnings for 1901 will exceed the highest records of preceding years by one-fourth. There lias been a gain of 38 per cent in bank clearings over 1900; the highest price for wheat since 1898 and of corn and oats for almost a decade. Not all the returns, however, are so favorable. There is less money in cotton for the South this year, aud the margin of profit in manufacture has occasioned complaint in New and old England. Export trade has shown signs of hesitation after years of steady advance, and imports have increased; still the margin in favor of exports is very large. Food products as a whole are higher than in the general price boom of 1900, while manufactures are' lower. Prices as a whole are 8 per cent lower than in February, 1900, and December, 1899, but are higher tiian in any year from 1893 until the third quarter of 1899. In transportation activity has been without precedent. The pre-eminence of the trade conditions of-this year is all the more notable when we consider a number of Occurrences which in a normal year would have proved depressing, if not disastrous. There were the machinist and steel strikes, the stock excitement of May, the failure of several imprudently managed combinations, the efforts of some combinations to fix prices, the shortage in corn, cotton ami oats, and the assassination of President McKinley. T~ In almost all wholesale Cbicano. l * nes tbe usua l holiday dull- * ‘ ness was not experienced While the volume of trade was not near ly as large as during some weeks pre viously, orders came thick and fast in departments where spring buying is usually done some weeks later. There was a firmness in quotations indicative of a rising rather than a declining market, and the conditions surrounding trade in all its branches were more favorable, perhaps, than during any former closing week of a year. Never before have the prospects for a large spring business been more auspicious. This is indicated by advance sales and also by the widespread requests for early deliveries. As to grain prices, wheat is now at a point where a few big traders seem inclined to sell it on every bulge. The foreign situation is fairly strong, and the latest estimate of German requirements is for 8,000,000 bushels monthly. Seaboard clearances continue close to the level of 4,000,000 bushels weekly, which are not enough to make foreign markets weak, and their supplies are being closely adjusted to requirements. In the soft winter wheat markets there has been a good milling demand at better than May prices for the No. 2 red, and an indisposition on the part of farmers to sell, which makes the movement light. In corn the cash situation is weakened, and premiums are lc to 2c lower than a week ago, with a light cash demand. The East is getting supplies that have been delayed by the inability of railroads to handle their traffic rapidly, and for the moment is not buying. Foreigners are also indifferent. The week’s range in both corn and oats was influenced largely by wheat, and confined to lc, corn closing with a loss of %c, and oats %c.
