This most westerly of the Provinces occupies an important place on the New World trade routes and a strat-getic position within the Empire. It has an area of three hundred and iifty-fivc thousand, eight hundred and fifty-live square miles, with seven thousand miles of coast line. The tremendous natural wealth, minerals, forests, water power, fisheries and the agricultural and industrial .potentialities awaiting further development fire.the imagination. Today, British Columbia has a jxjpulation of approximately six hundred thousand, yet, it is capable of sustaining fifty million people. Nowhere in the world are there greater opportunities to satisfy young Canada's desires for adventure, for achievement, fur sport. These opportunities for men of mettle are limited only by the capacity of the individual to do and to jwssess. Ithasbccn truly paid that the wealth of any country lies, not in theposscssion of natural resources, but in the careful exploitation of them. How successfully British Col umbi.i is developing her natural resources for Canada and Canadian prestige id evidenced by the briefest glance at her progress. The Northern Electric Company is proud of its fhare in this development and the tremendous growth' of the Province. red on Monday near Hubert, when three rear cars and the caboose on a wheat train left the track through a broken mil. apparently caused by frost, says the Interior News of Smlthe'rs.

Forest 1J ritish Columbia's forests compose half of the softwood resources of the British Empire, and give emplovment to one quarter of themale'population of the Province. Exports increased from two hundred and eighty-four million in 1910 to five hundred and Ecvcntv-seven million board feet in 1923. Yet, the Province hus used up less of its timber capacity than any other Province or State in North America. The estimated to? tie of the commercial timber stand is one billion dollars. Mining Minerals to the total value of almost one billion dollars have been produced since 1852. British Columbia if the most highly mineralized area on t.':e North American Continent. Gold, silver, lead, copper, zinc and coal are there in abundance. Kihinj; Half of the entire fishery production of Canada o.nes from British Columbia. In 1921 the value of t!:e total production was fourteen million dollars. T!iis wa3 increased to twenty-two and a half million dollars in 1925. Agriculture The investment in land, live stock, etc, is approximately two hundred and twenty million dollars. The soil and equable climate make the Province ideal for mixed farming. Industrial Qrotrth The number of manufacturing-industries conducted in the Province increased within the Tast eight years from 1,202 to 1,401 with an annual payroll of almost forty-two million dollars. Water Pott-cr The hydro-electric resources of British Columbia have been developed to an extraordinary degree. All the power that industry will need for generations will be ready as and when it is needed. This announcement appears in the press Ihrourjioui Caniida this month.
