the policy outlined by Sir Robert Borden at the outset of
the war. of keeping fifty thousand men continually in train-

of fighting units to the aid of the Empire is p0SBihiY 11°*

dny. `
The official figures show that Canada today has 99,000
soldiers on active service and under arms. These comprise
men in the trenches in Flanders, reserves in Enkiallfi
regiments at Bermuda and West lndies, the second. third
and fourth contingents under training. and the home de-
fences.
The 99,000 men now under arms are distributed as fol-
lows:
First Coiitingcnt. now at the front. with reserves in
England -36,000. . _ _ _
Princess Patricia Light infantry, anti reinfocrements-
1,000 men.
Royal Caandian Regiment at Bermuda-1,200 men.
Regiment of St. Lucia, British West Indies-500 men.
Thirteenth regiments of mounted men-7,400.
Second Contingent. including -1.000 already in England
-20,000 men.
Twenty~six regiments of Third and Fourth Contingent
.~20,f)00 men.
Men on homo defence ditty and guarding alien camps
.-l0,l62 men.
ln addition to the foregoing, there has been sent for-
ward various hospitals. veterinary and other tletachmenL~;,
which would make something like fifteen hundred or two
thousand men. '
The First Army Division. now in Flanders, under the
command of General Alderson, consists of four brigades.
of four battalions each. it Ls accompanied by a squadron
of cavalry and a company of cyclists. The artillery at the
front consists of three field artillery brigades, the heavy
artillery battery with ammunition column, and the divis-,
ional ammunition column. There are three divisional eu-
gineer companies, a signal company, ai' supply and trans-
port. train, anti three medical fir-ld ambulances. Besides
the army division. there is the Princess Patricia Light In-
fantry which left canada eleven hundred strong. Five
hundred men as reinforcements have been sent to them.
and most of these have already' joined the regiment. ln
:itltlition there are what are known as communications
units, which arc rcally administrative units required for
duty in the rcnr ot' the fighting, or first line troops.
llesidt-1- these troops. there are now in England, of the
113,000 who went over with the First Contingent. three but-
tnlions which will be used as reinforcements for the ili-
fantry. and the 17th Nova Scotia Regiment. which is being
used as n gcucral reserve. One infantry battalion. the
Sixth. which was originally the 34th Fort Garry Light
llorsc, of Winnipeg, have been transferred into mounted
infantry, and will be used as a depot for the purpose oi'
providing cavalry reinforcements. ln addition to these
units the First Contingent contained the Royal Catladlan
Drngoons. thc Lord Strathcona Horse, and two battalions
of the Royal Canadian Horse Artillery. These tliree.units
are apparently still in England.
When the war broke out the British regular regiment,
stationed at Bermuda was recalled, and the Royal Canad-
ian Regiment, f‘anada`s crack permanent corps, of Halifax.
wps sent to take its place. ln addition. a regiment 500
strong, were sent to St. Lucia. British West lndics. No
ment.ion of this movement has ever been made in any Can-
adian newspaper, but the regiment has been stationed
there are some time and as all danger oi' German attack by
raiding cruisers has passed, there can he no harm in pub-
lishing the fact. '
Western Fanatls in particular is filled with expert
horsemen. cowboy, rough riders, and frontlersmen. At the
outbreak of thc war there was a strong demand from these
men to he allowed to go to a mounted corps. However, at
that time it was apparent that the war was to be one of
trench fighting. and the imperial authorities discouraged
the idea. Later, when Turkey threw her turbau into the
ring, it was decided to raise. three mounted brigades.
Tliese will bc sent to Egypt, if required, and if not needed

These consist of thirteen regiments, six of 600 men and
scvcn of G50 men. They are all recruited up to f'ull strength,
und, in foci, are over strength. Eight of these regiments
are in \\'c-stern Canada and tive in Eastern Canada.
The Second Contingent is now fully recruited, and is
carrying on its training preparatory to leaving for the
front. Approximately there are 20,000 men, of whom 4.000

quired, as reinforcements for the First Contingent. This
contingent consists of a full army division. There are
twelve infantry brigades. a squadron of mounted troops,
twelve field artillery brigades, a heavy battery, ammuni-

ln addition to the two army divisions, there arc twenl

Most. of these regiments are at full strength, and others
are at half strength and are daily filling up their' ranks.
Several regiments have just been authorized, and have
only been recruiting for a. few days. lt is estimated by the
_Militia Department that some twenty thoussand men have
been enlisted for these regiments, and the number is grew-

The activities in the realm of fur

The chief criticism tu the whole sit-

moters who purchased foxes captured
in the wllds at. from $200 to $1,500
each, and floated them in companies at
$5,000 each; or even more. In some
instances these "wild" foxes have as

But they are not as valuable, be-
cause lt is not known what quality of
offspring they will produce.
Such silver foxes may produce red
or patched foxes in the offspring. This

THE ROYAL"lNVE8TMENT EX-

COURAGING NEWS FOR THOSE
lNTERE8TED IN* THE SILVER
BLACK FOX INDUSTRY.
The Guardian is advised that lust
month the Royal Investment Exchange
sent to a well known fur house in the
United States a Silver Black I-‘ox pelt
from the Hon. John Agnew's private
ranch at Alberton, the animal having
been accidently killed.
Yesterday they receeivetl word of-
fering from $1,500 to $1,700 for the
skin, providing they could furnish an-
other one to match, as two were _re-
quired to make a set. * '
The fact that this fur house is wil-
ling to pay from $3,000 to $3,500 for
two Silver Black Fox Skins in war
times is indeed noteworthy, and clear-
ly indicates the true value of the P; E.

and should be an assurance to those
who have their money invested in
ranches where they have the real gen-
uine stock. that the returns even on a
pelt basis should greatly exceed that
of any other investment.

Royal Investment Exchange that the
original copy ol’ the letter offering the
above figures is on file in their office
