H. Valiquette, manager oi the Island of Anticosti, have increased irom about 300 couples, male and female, in 1897-98 to about 500,000 at the present time. The original deer were imported from Virginia. Deer mea. is an important item in the food pro- vided. for the people of the settles ments and logging districts of Anti- costi, almost 1,000 being killed every year for immediate consumption. Mr. Valiquette recently addressed the Engineering Institute of Canada here on various phases of the Island of Anticosti. Referring to other game on the island, Mr. Valiquette said that a herd of reindeer and a pair of elk were imported to the island a few years ago and that these ani- mals appear to be thriving at the present time. Wild fowl were said to be in abundance in the migration season, while partridges were report- ed to be increasing in numbers. Fox and beaver are plentiful on the is- land, both having multiplied rapidly. The coast waters abound in fish. The chici natural resources of An- ticosti are timber, farming, fur, fish and game, of which only timber and fur are being exploited by the pres- ent owners of the island. The re- maining resources are being develop- ed on a small scale, sufficient to meet the local needs. In the timber area it is estimated there are 14,400,000 cords of standing timber, of which about 40 per cent, is spruce and 60 - BUILT NEW ARTIFICIAL ICE PLANT T? .vew - Additions to the IN OSHAWA CURLING RINK Were Built by J.

The district coveiea by the dentist took in small settle- ments in sections of the province far distant from the centres of popula- tion, the ages of the young people treated being from 4 to 17.
