The department's index number which went up more than a point during April, reached the highest point in the record of the department during May, a year ago. The rise of nearly ten points in one year constitutes a record in the history of the depart- ment and it is a noticeable feature that during the last year the low- est point was recorded during May and June while the figures for May this year show an advance over any previous month. Animals and meats advanced to unprecedented levels during May, an unusual feature of the market being that all low grad- es have advanced as steeply as the choice grades. Grains and fodders showed an increase during,- the month as also did fruits and vegetables. Decreases, on the other hand, were recorded in the case of dairy pro- ducts and fish. The cost of living continues to as- cend in Canada. According to the latest estimate of the Canadian De partment of Labor tne continued rise in prices was maintained during May, though not to such a. marked extent COST OF LIVING The two sil_ver trowels used by Mrs. Beal and Mr. Hogg in the cor- ner stone laying, were supplied by Hr.
