HELP NOT REQUIRED.
Consequently Not Many are
Expected Prom the
Provinces.
W11~::.'1P1aG, August 18.-Mr. Hugh Mc-
Kellar, Chief Clerk in the Department
of Agriculture, said in regard to the de-
mand for labor to harvest Manitoba’s
cro _ that there were very few requests
D
ofor men being received from different
places, but he could not say just how_
many would be required, as all the reports,
have not yet being received from the de~
pa.rtment’s correspondents. Judging'f_roln
the present outlook, however, there were
enough men in the Province already to
garner this year's crop, and he did not
think that many would be required from
Ontario or the other Provinces. "Con-
ditions representing the labor problem are
altogether different this year from.
former seasons. The grain had repened
earlier, and the farmers will have plenty
of time to get it in before the snow flies,
and as it is very light he will reap and
gather the grain himself, in order to save
the expense of help. Oats and barley will
be ready after the wheat is harvested, and
as the farmer is not rushed for. time he
will in all probability, be able to _attend
this year’s harvest with the assislzance of
what men are :already in the Province.
Many of the farmers discharged their men
during the June drouth from motives of
economy, and it is from these that most of
the requests are being received now for
help. The requests \being received do
not specify the figure of the wage which
it is proposed _to pay this year. It is
pointed out that with good crops in On-
tario this year men are receiving $1 to
$1.50 a day, and with this rate obtaining
it is hardly likely they will leave home un-
less big pay is promised here.
PROGRESS OETHE HARVEST. -
Reports _received at the Provincial De-
partment of Agriculture and from travell-
ers returning from the country indicate
that the harvest in southern Manitoba is
now well advanced and is progressing
favorably.Iu other parts the harvest a is a
little later, but the grain is all in excellen
condition for cutting, and the harvest is
general all over th'e Province. The barley
and oat crops will be later than wheat by
ful‘y a fortnight, :ind thus the farmers
will be given plenty of time to stock in
their wheat before the coarse grains are
ready. The demand for laborers this year
has been small in comparison with last
year, when over 8,000 men were asked for.
Many sections have reported no men want-
ed, while others,principallynear Hartney,
report a few.»=»{l1he»-northern part of the
Province will come in alittle later, but no
demands formen have asyet been received
The largefinflux from the east is not
expected this year.

THE SUPPLIES OF WAR.
Enormous Quantities of Goods Seat to South
Africrby Great Britain.
Some idea of the cost of South African
war may be derived from the amount of
war materials sent out. It appears from
an article in the Edinburgh Review`_that
170 millions of small-arm ammunition
have been forwarded. The following
figures give the corresponding provision
ofartillcry ammunitionz-
Over 105,000 rounds for the 12-pounder
