Not long' ago, when the feverbf expansion height; in these urban communities, thousands of dollars, and volumes of energy were expended in a vain “en-i deavor to acquire industries.

The human race is divided into two 'classeswthose who go ahead and do something, and those who sit still and .inquire, “Why wasn't it_ done the lother way?” i ' .‘ Refuse From Lumber ‘ A Vancouver lumberman has esti- lmated that“‘one ton of refuse gees to the burners for every thousand feet of lumber cut.” In his own sawmill he has eliminated this waste by break~ ing up the refuse into small pieces which are manufactured briquettes at a cost of only $321 ton. into a fuel. factories andan increased pay roll, and some municipalities got the fac- tories without the increased pay roll. It has taken just a little longer than one year to establish anew commer- cial point of view in nearly every city and town in the west. In one aspir- ing city in Saskatchewan, which is situated in the very heart of a. grain area of 3,600 square miles, the clamor for industries has given way to the ‘slogan, “a. man for every farm in the surrounding district.” The President of the Edmonton Board of Trade, de- livering his annual address recently, emphasized the same idea, encourag- ing development in the rural districts. These were his words in referring to the question of further manufacturing in this city: “I would first like to see those ninety-five factories and indus- trial enterprises we already have operating to full capacity and increas- ing their capacity. To double the out- put of existing factories is preferable to doubling the number of industries.
