Manufacturing Group With Largest Payroll Is Directly Dependent» on Forests for Raw Material.

The importance of the lumber ‘in- dustry in the economic life of Cun- uda is strikingly shown In n re- cent bulletin of the Dominion Bur- euu of Statistics. Among the great manufacturing groupo, the lumber Industry holds fourth place in point of pioditt-titiu, first place In luniishiiig t-iitiiloyineut, and first place in totnI payments for labour.

The figures for i917 show u to- tsl capital investment of nearly $60,000,000, uud o. wage and sul- ary list aggregating about 57.000 people with ptiyiur-nts amounting to nearly $40,000,000. The total value of the output for the year is placed‘ at $115,884,905. This fig- ure includes the value of lumber, lath, shingles, pulpwood and miscel- laneous products.

in value of production during 1917, tho leading place was occu- pied by British Columbia, with Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Novs, Scotia, Saskatchewan, Mdni- toba, Alberta and Prince Edward island following in the order named. In the amount of lumber out, though not in its value, British

tnsiiufucture of pulp and paper, rather titan lumber. Further while extensive lumbering in Bri- tish Columbia is of trompuratlvely recent development, .it has been going on in Ontario since a very early period, wl-tli consequent heavy destruction due to fires and the absence of restrictions upon logging methods calculated to leave cut-over areas ‘in u DFOJIICYIVB condition. .

The forests of British Columbia, like those of Quebec and New Brunswick, are administered by the Provincial Forest Service, a technical organization of trained foresters. This development has not yet taken place in Ontario. though representations have been made to the ment in that connection.

in NovaScotia the appointment of a technically trained Provincial Forester is under consideration.

The importance of handling our
