7\t* Some Pre-Publication Difficulties.y\ty January and the early days of February, the preparation period for the new issue, were difficult and to anyone of less faith and determination than Mr.Channell would have been extremely discouraging.Sherbrooke merchants of those days were sympathetic but they had not tested the value of newspaper advertising.National advertisers could not be interested in a newspaper just being launched.There was no press, no type, no building.Financial backing for an enterprise which seemd to belong to the extra hazardous class was not available.Printed on Progress de L\u2019Est Press.*- Arrangements were made with Mr.L.A.Belanger, publisher of Le Progress de L\u2019Est, for the use of his press and on this the first issue of the Record was printed, on February 9, 1897.This plant was located in the upper part of the Morency Building, which is now occupied as a store, and stands next the city lot on Wellington Street.Business and News I Offices.The business and editorial departments of the Record, in its I early days, occupied one room j 1 on the ground floor of this build-1 ing.The total staff consisted of three, the late Mr.Channell, V.j | E.Morrill, the present President: and General Manager, as news reporter, and F.T.Enright, now : a lawyer in Montreal, as court; ] reporter.Short telegraphic reports were; received from Montreal and the foundation laid for enlarged telegraphic service of later years.The publishers of the Record | early recognized that its field ^ was the whole Eastern Town- j ships, and began in the earliest;

excellent service for many years.The late Harry Logie joined the Record staff in 1909, and rendered faithful service until his death in 1919, when he was succeeded by Gordon Miller, who had previously serv ed as city editor.The other members of the staff have joined since 1912, the whole making an organization, efficient and effective.These include A.W.Reid, city editor; Mrs.B.M.Price, editorial department; C.P.Buckiand, circulation manager and Mrs.Carter and Miss Florence Bramhall, of the circulation department; Miss Frances Wii iams, of the proof-reading department; Miss Alice Willard, and Mist Maud Hurley, of the business office; and in the mecharkai department: E.J.Beauregard, L.Blouin, Ivan Magee, Thos.Hobbs, George MacDonald, Francis Ker.alty, Leo Mayotte -and Roland Kerr.The Record, also, has a staff of young women who come in ocly for the afternoon for the mailing department.And the newsboy staff is an important feature of the Record\u2019s organization.Every afternoon from forty to fifty of these bright and ambitious boys assemble at the Record office and distribute the papers to all parts of the city.At Lennoxviiie and many of.the outside towns Record newsboys are, also, found, and many a lad has developed an attractive hank account from his paper earnings and laid the foundation of his future business success.Some two hundred Record correspondents throughout the town* and villages of the Eastern Townships are, also, included in the Record staff and are among the contributors to the Record\u2019s auccess.Numbers of the correspondents have represented their communities for many years.The services of all combine daily to make the publication of the Record possible and are gratefully acknowledged by the publishers.days to collect through correspondents the news items of the towns and villages.And this was the beginning of the Eastern Townships daily.City and Surrounding District.ment in the townships and has ;

S One of the busiest depart-i ments of the Record in the afternoon is that through which the papers are sent out to all parts of the Eastern Townships and beyond.It has been necessary to enlarge this year by year as the circulation has grown until it occupies a well equipped section of the building of its own An Acknowledgment.\u2018t The publishers desire to taktt advantage of this occasion to acknowledge the good will and practical support of the general public which the Record has always enjoyed.This has coma from all sections of the community and has been continuou* through the passing years.These happy circumstances have contributed very greatly to the suc-' cess which has attended this daily newspaper enterprise in tho Eastern Townships.SOME MARKET QUOTATIONS (Taken from Fob.9th, 1887, issue of Record) Eggs\t\t Butter\t\t Chicken\t\t Pork\t\t Beef cut \t\t.\t4-10c.Potatoes, peck .\t.\t,70-3&c Apples\t\t,.r.$2 bbl.PATON MANUFACT0R1NG COMPANY SHERBROOKE - QUE M WW\u201d- Established 1866.Largest Woollen Mills in the Dominion Offices m Montreal, 325 Board of Trade Braiding.Offices in Toronto, 33 Melinda Street.The Head Office of the Company i« in Sherbrooke, with Branch Offices in Montreal and Toronto.Mr.John Turnbull, of Montreal, is President and Managing Director; D.Forbes Angus, Vice-President.Other Director» are: R.T.Heneker, K.C.; George M.Loy; Brigadier-General Frank S.Meighen; R.W.Reford; George H.Bmithera.Manager, W.E.Paton; Secretary, A.D.Brodle.One of the Dominion\u2019s most important manufacturing establishment» is that of the Paton Manufacturing Company, of Sherbrooke, who operate the largest woollen and worsted mill» in Canada.The products of these mill woollens and woreted cloths for men\u2019s and women's wear.They also manufacture sleeping car rugs, rubber fabrics, hosiery, worsted knitting fingering yarns.The Paton Manufacturing Company\u2019s goods arc to bt from Halifax to Vancouver.The factories cover a large area of land, and are situated on the upper dam of the Magog River.The Company has a paid-up capital of $600,000, employs 50Û hands, and pays out annually over $ consist of fancy >o found in all parts of the Dominion 100,000 in wages.% 1 1 SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD, FEBRUARY 9, 1922.y $260,000.\tFrancis river.\t, ,, T .Muy 26.\u2014New cabinet sworn in at Oct.19.\u2014Jury found the Lapierres Montreal.Hon.F.G.Marchand, guilty for attempted murder of child Events of Twenty-five Year* Ago, as Recorded in the Daily Record of 1897\u2014Year of Queen Victoria\u2019s Jubilee\u2014 Turco-Grecian War\u2014Opening of Sherbrooke Street Railway\u2014Provincial Elections\u2014 Marchand Premier.Feb.9, 1897.\u2014First issue of Sher-Orooke Daily Record.Feb.9.\u2014Reported death of Mr.S.W.Twose a leading citizen of Sherbrooke, occurred Friday night last.Harnes of Rev.A.Scarth, Lennox, ville, urned.Loss: Three cows, Ten tons of hay and other contents.Incendiarism suspected., Rev.Dr.Thornioe, recently of Sherbrooke, now Bishop of Algoma, given fine welcome on arrival at Bault Ste.Marie.Premier and Provincial Treasurer; , Hon.H.Archambault, Attorney-General; Hon.H.T.Duffy, Commissioner Public Works; Hon.S.N.Parent, Commissioner of Crown Lands; Hon.F.G.M.Dechene, Commissioner of Agriculture; Hon.A.Turgeon, Commissioner of Mines and Fisheries; Hon.J.E.Robidoux, Pro.Secretary.May 28.\u2014Mr.John H.Molson, President Molson\u2019s Bank, and head of well-known brewery firm, died at Montreal._________ I May 29.\u2014Announced that an E.T.'

May we take advantage of this occasion\u2014the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Sherbrooke Record\u2014to tender our thanks to the general public for the continuous and liberal patronage accorded the firm of J.Rosen-bloom & Co.during the past twenty-four years.In going over the fyles of the Record, we note from our first advertising announcements that our store was formally opened on Sat., June 18, 1898.We have been consistent users of newspaper space ever since, setting forth daily the offerings of our store.The large measure of public patronage which has come to us has enabled us to keep up with the increasing demands of the growing city.Starting in a single store, 20 feet by 60 feet, we have extended from time to time until we have a floor area of 3600 feet, or three times our original space.We are now planning still further extensions as we are confident the growth and development of Sherbrooke and district will be far greater in the years to come than in the past.We have endeavored to deal fairly with our customers at all times, giving the best possible value for their money.We feel that, to some extent at least, we have succeeded in giving satisfaction for a large number of our customers have been steady buyers at our store for many years.For this support we are very grateful.We are in a better position than ever before to supply the public requirements and we hope to keep fully abreast with the times in the years to come.With congratulations to the Record and very best wishes to the public.J.ROSENBLOOM & CO.per J.ROSENBLOOM.I 5 J.M.NAULT, Limited

at Lennoxville, Que., on August '20th, 1921, started business in this town in 1903 in the New Sherbrooke House Building, King Street, and after a few years of continual success, Mr.Nault having larger aspirations, opened another store in the Métropole Building, King Street, in 1911, and as the business was constantly growing he decided then to form the Company J.M.Nault, Limited, which under his able management and hard work succeeded in building up one of the largest institutions of its kind in the Eastern Townships.This store which at first occupied only 4,000 square feet of floor, has now I 1,500 square feet to accommodate its always growing satisfied clientele.The name of J.M.Nault, Ltd., is now known all over the Province, and is synonymous to \u201cFair and Honest Dealings with the Public.*\u2019 The gr°wth and success of this firm has been remarkable, and can only be attributed to sound business principles and is in keeping with progressive business firms in every portion of the Townships.This store carries the largest and most up-to-date stock of every day needs for men, women and children from head to foot.Our unprecedented success is due to fair prices, square deals, large assortments of merchandise and good management.A CORDIAL INVITATION Is made to everybody to visit this Modern F»lace of PAGE SIX SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD, FEBRUARY V, IVZZ.Ye» of Spanish-American

St.Lawrence River, which divides the Province of Quebec into two main parts, lies an immense tract of land extending to the United States border.The choicest portion of this area is that served by the Quebec Central Railway, the main line running from Sherbrooke to Quebec over the Quebec Bridge, with branches from Tring Jet.to Megantic, Valley Jet.to Lake Frontier and Scott's Jet.to Levis.Origi-(nally intended as a colonization rail-way this line under its progressive : management has become one of ; much greater importance and now I actually forms an integral part of a trunk line between Quebec and Portland, Boston.New York and all New England points.The excellent ! through train service with dining car and Pullman car accommodation i makes it a very popular route, which ! is generally patronized by the travelling public.The recognized standing of this Company as being one of the leading transportation interests for its mileage in the Dominion of Canada is well deserved.The policy of its executive from the very inception of the company has been to identify itself with the particular industries and other interests of the section it serves and to gradually extend its line to comply with the growing agricultural interests of the district.The recent extension of the line over the Quebec Bridge into the Palais Station, Quebec City, affords a very convenient service which is greatly appreciated by the travelling public.The mining industries along the line are very extensive.Asbestos is the chief product, the deposits of this wonderful mineral at Coleraine, Black Lake, Thetford Mines, Robertson and East Broughton being the most important in the world.These mines constitute one of the most prosperous industries in the Dominion of Canada and are of special interest to the mining and industrial world due to the fact that, in so far as is known they practically represent the only deposits of the mineral of a quality adapted for spinning, and for finer purposes of manufacture.Quebec asbestos is also the chief factor in the control of the asbestos industry in the United States and, in a marked degree of the world, the production aggregating ninety per cent of the world\u2019s consumption, the development of the manufacturing industry being contemporaneous with that of the Canadian mines.Although as stated above the most important deposits of this mineral in the world occur in the Province of Quebec, it is also found in the United States, Italy, South Africa, Russia, Australia and Cyprus, but the Quebec deposits possess geological, geographical and economical advantages denied to each and all other similar occurrences.The local properties represent an enormous invested capital and the value of the production, which is exported to all parts of the globe, amounts to millions of dollars annually.There are also important chrome mines at Thetfox'd Mines and Black Lake, shipments moving continuously to Canadian and United States points.Copper ore is found at various J points along the line but the most extensive deposits are near Weedon.which are the largest in Canada east of the Great Lakes.Thousands of [ tons of high grade ore are annually shipped to different Canadian and United States destinations.The gold operations of the Chaudière district are also worthy of mention.The findings in this section which cover a large area have been exclusively alluvial, the gold bearing gravel being found at a depth ranging from the surface to one hundred feet.The largest nuggets found so far in the Chaudière Valley were worth from $700.00 to $900.000, and it is said that during the last forty years a value of over two million dollars has been panned in that section.The operations heretofore have been on a small scale' but with further development it is possible that Beauce County may become an important factor in th4 production of gold in Canada.The lumbering industry, especially on the Chaudière Division is very extensive.Shipments total millions of feet of lumber and thousands of cords of pulpwood which during the summer months move in special train loads to all parts of the country.The limits in this region are considered almost inexhaustible.The population of the whole Que* bec Central territory has also correspondingly increased and what were sparsely settled communities a few years ago are now' thrivina towns and villages w'ith splendid prospects for further development.Further, this section of the Province is not without its historical significance, the Chaudière Valley being the route by which General Arnold and his small army of Americans marched against Quebec in th# year 1775.SEIKT\"' The Famous Quebec Bridge over which Quebec Central Railway trains operate into

annual surplus runs into millions.The Provincial Bonds command the highest prices on the market.Great resources are in the process of development.Large amounts are being expended on the public services.Quebec Province has a record of remarkable progress.The total ordinary receipts from 1867-68 to 1897-98 were $124,-064,030.31.The total ordinary extraordinary payments were $1 30,-845,829.1 8.So that at the end of this period there was a deficit of ordinary receipts under ordinary and extraordinary and special payments of $6,781,798.87.The total ordinary receipts from 1 898-99 to 1 904-5 were $32,-373,220.26.The total ordinary and extraordinary payments were $32,-022,779.71, showing a surplus of ordinary receipts over ordinary and extraordinary payments of $351,440.55.The total

powers.Licenses Taxes on Corporations.Tramways, Railways, Etc.Motor Vehicles.Succession Duties.Taxes on transfer of shares, bonds, etc.Administration of justice, law stamps, building and jury

Outstanding.$51,652,113.55 Against which the sinking funds invested amountd to 2,374,5 1 8.70 HON.L.A.TASCHEREAU, Premier of Quebec.Prosperity Due To Wise Adminstration :?Canada s Pulp And Paper Census For 1920 Net balance of Funded Debt .$49,277,594.85 The debt is largely due to such expenditures as, $33,366,353.72 on Roads; $ 1,000,000 each to Universities of Montreal, McGill and Laval; $3,362,902.5 4 on development of Water Powers.These three items represent $39.29,256.26.1 he balance of $9,548,338.59 includes I moneys borrowed for Railway Subsidies and Colonization.The growing revenues and growing surplus, as has been pointed out by the Premier, give promise of the eventual wiping out altogether i of the debt of the Province.AID FOR EDUCATION The substantial and growing revenues of the Province have made possible a steady ( increase in the aid given to Education.The grants have grown from $534,460 in 1905 to $! ,700,619.1 5 in 1921, and still! further increases, it has been announced, are to be made this year.There has been immense progress in Education in the Province of Quebec during the last quarter of a century.I his progress is not measured merely by the great increase in the grants of Government during that time, nor by the increased contributions of the1 ratepayers, though both have more than quadrupled.It is manifest, also, in the widespread interest of all classes of people in this important branch of public welfare.Twenty-five years ago the advocates of educational progress were a small minority in many communities; today it is the uppermost subject in most minds.The industrial development of the Province made the establishment of Technical Schools an absolute necessity, and the Provincial Government took up the task of founding them with the spirit of thoroughness.While costing much money, both for their erection, equipment and annual maintenance, these institutions are indispensable for any sane development of the manufactures of the Province.Quebec has a population possessing great natural ability, but under the competitive conditions of the present century it is needful that the workers in industry should have the technical training that \u2022Fese institutions afford.The universities, also, have developed greatly during the last twenty-five years.To them we look, not only for the spread of that higher education in all branches which affects elementary and secondary education, but also for those fruits of scientific research so much required for the development of our natural resources, particularly those of the mine, the forest and the farm.In recognition of these services, the Government recently gave the three leading universities a special grant of one million dollars each, and increased scientific research work is expected from these institutions.The recent declaration of Premier Taschereau, and the well-known attitude of the Hon.Mr.David, Provincial Secretary, and of the Hon.Mr.Nicol, Provincial Treasurer, make it now certain that the day of the rural school, both elementary and superior, has also arrived.vXFile the grants to these schools are much larger than they were twenty-five years ago, it is to be remembered that the cost of maintaining them has increased.The salaries of the teachers have, most rightly indeed, improved, but can still stand further improvement.No greater service can be rendered by Government than that of assuring the sound progress or the rural schools, which are of such vast importance for the best development of rural life and agriculture.^.\ta\u2014\tj Mills in operation during 1920\u2014100, comprising 40 pulp mills, 27 pulp and paper mills and 33 paper mills, and distributed as follows: British Columbia, 4 mills, 2 pulp

is due great extent to the wise administration of its affairs by Government headed by Sir Lomer Gouin and now by^ Hon.L.A.1 aschereau.This administration has been chatf \u2022 acterized by economy.The public services, however, hftV]EJ been maintained.There has been an equilibrium betwwsni receipts and expenditures.\t\u2014 Surpluses accumulated during the period referred totalled over ten million dollars.As a result, Education* Agriculture, Good Roads, Colonization, and other great; public services, have received ever-increasing governmental assistance* The increase of the Federal subsidy, brought abomt^ through the efforts of Sir Lomer Gouin, has had an imppltj ant effect on the provincial revenue.The amendment obtained to the British North AmAfUMi Act, by which the whole territory of Ungava was added ta* Quebec, increased the area of the Province from 351.875\u2018l square miles to 703,653 square miles.\tj Another important administrative act was the prohnfWf*> tion of export of pulpwood from Crown lands in unmanxi' factured state.This has resulted in the establishment ©! large pulp and paper mills in the province.The policy inaugurated for the development of wi powers, through the construction of large storage dams on the St.Maurice and St.Francis Rivers is having an important effect upon the industrial growth of the province.Guiding principles of the Administration at Queltte^} have been :\t_ To maintain the expenditures within the province.*To authorize no new expenditures without providing foi, | a proportionate increase in the revenue.To conserve the high credit of the province.To increase the public debt only on good cause and in proportion to the population and public wealth.AID FOR COLONIZATION The policy of the Government has been to extend the settled area of the province and thereby bring new lands under cultivation.I his results in increased agricultural production, and, in its return, aids in reducing the cost of living.In 1905, the sum of $140,500 was expended on behalf of colonization.This has been increased year by year* and for the year ending last June the expenditure wa» $1,445,097.16.It is expected that for this year the govern^ mental aid for colonization will reach $2,000,000.A railroad is now under construction in the Temiskam-| ing district to aid settlements there.DEVELOPMENT OF GOOD ROADS An outstanding act of the Quebec Administration vmtf the declaration of its Good Roads policy, which has sine» been developed and applied.1 here is scarcely a municipality' in the province that has not taken advantage of the* provisions of the Good Roads Act to improve its roads.Great trunk line highways have been built, notably thd 1 Quebec to Montreal highway, the King Edward Highway* the Sherbrooke to Derby Line Highway, and now unde?construction, the Sherbrooke to Montreal, or Victory Highway.The Good Roads construction has marked a new epoch in the development of the province.Since 1912, when th* Government first announced its Good Roads plans, somof $33,000,000 has been expended on the construction andl improvement of roads.I here are today some 3,700 mileai of these improved macadam and gravel roads in the pro-* vince.The expenditure in 1905 on behalf of roads was onfyj $8,000.Last year the expenditure was $6,554,219.14.Already a large and ever-growing revenue is coming the province as a result of the Good Roads work, from the inestimable value of Good Roads to the people the province as used for their own purposes, there is ar4 3 » \u2022 ring td AparJ rple of increasing flow of tourists into the province during Rapid Stabilization of Lumber Business Mr.G.C.Fiche, chief of the forestry service of the province, predicts that normal conditions in the exploitation of the forestry resources of the Province of Quebec will be| resumed next summer.However, his forecast states that tho prices will not be over those existing in 1914, but that there] will be a resumption of business in pulp and lumber.\"Abotil fifty per cent, of the activty which has been reached in recent years in the lumber camps now exists,\" he stated, \"but before the end of the winter this proportion should easily reach sixty per cent.The number of employees working in the bush this winter is on the same percentage.In the Ottawa Valley there is very little decrease in the activity, because wood cut there is not cut so much for pulp, but in the other sections pulp men are very cautious, due to the fact that theyj have still on hand a good quantity and do not want to take risks as to the immediate future.The price of lumber bas taken a considerable fall.\" Mr.Fiche was optimistic in regard to the lumber business and believed in a rapid stabiliza-Uon of that industry» # \u2022' summer months.In 1915, the number of visiting cars 3,430.For 1920, there were 34,000 cars from the United States alone, and in 1921 the total was not far from 50,000* It is estimated that these tourists spent in the province h» 1920, $8,000,000, and that their expenditure in 1921 has been at least $10,000,000.Good Roads are also having an important and favorable effect upon all agricultural districts served by them.Real estate has become more valuable through the improved facilities for reaching the home markets.The boon of Good Roads is now recognized by all sections of the population.AID FOR AGRICULTURE has) A strong feature of the Quebec Administration been its efforts on behall of agriculture.Agricultural and Dairy Schools have been established.Agronomists have been appointed for various districts to instruct the farmers in scientific methods.Farmers\u2019 Cluba have been supported.Agricultural Fairs have been aided by liberal grants.Inspection systems for cheese and butter lactories have been developed.Grants to agriculture have been increased from $210,600 in 1905 to $1,064,500 in 1921.In 191 3, the total value of the field crops was $88,589,-000.In 1919, the value was $307,914.000.Frices were, of, course, higher, but there was an increase in the acres seeded! from 5*480,673 u> 7,9.10,0.21,^\tf \u2022 l SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD, FEBRUARY 9, 1922» PAGE NINE The Greatness of Quebec Province Facts About Quebec Territory The Province of Quebec is the largest of the nine provinces in point of territory, comprising an area of 703,653 square miles, of which 1 5,969 are lakes.The area organized into municipalities is 24,31 7,662 acres or 37,996 square miles, thus showing that the greater proportion of the province is largely unsettled.This is due to the annexation of Ungava to the province, for old Quebec comprised but 187,402 square miles, as against 703,653 square miles.Quebec comprises one-fifth of the total area of Canada.A better comparative idea of the territory of the province is gained when figures are compared.The Quebec square mileage is 703,653, that of Ontario 407,262, of British Columbia 255,855, of Alberta 255,285, of Manitoba 251,832, of Saskatchewan 251,700, of New Brunswick 27,985, of Nova Scotia 21,428.of Prince Edward Island 2,184, of the Yukon 207,076, and there are 1,242,224 square miles in* the North-West Territory.The Statistical Year Book of the Province of Quebec for 1920, speaking of Quebec\u2019s Territory, comments; .Boundaries Quebec is an immense peninsula surrounded by the waters of Hudson s Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, the Gulf of St.Lawrence, and Ottawa River.The interior is but little inhabited.Properly speaking, the shores of the St.Lawrence and Baie des Chaleurs and the banks of the Ottawa River are inhabited by a population living in communities.The extreme inhabited parts on the north are in the county of Lake St.John and the Abitibi region.Situated, as it were, in the centre of the eastern provinces of the Canadian Confederation, in control of almost the entire navigation of the St.Lawrence and of the mouth of this river, the Province of Quebec might be said to hold the gate and keys of Canada, and no importation, no exportation takes place from Europe to Canada, or vice versa, during eight months of the year, without passing through the ports of Montreal and Quebec.This favorable location assured the province of more than half the trade of the whole of Canada.HON.JACOB NICOti Provincial Treasurer Waterways Quebec is well provided with waterways.In addition to the mighty St.Lawrence, which traverses most of the province, there are various other navigable rivers and also a system of canals.The Saguenay River is navigable as far as Chicoutimi.A canal connects the Richelieu River with the Hudson River via Lake Champlain.The principal canals on the St.Lawrence are those of Lachine, Beauharnois, and Soulanges, and other canals are the Carillon ~-ud Grenville, on the Ottawa, and the St.Ours and Chambly on the Richelieu.Population in Estimates from provincial sources of population place the figure at 2,432,251 191 8, of which 1,168,368 are classed as urban and 1,263,883 as rural.When the populations of Montreal and the City of Quebec are deducted it will be seen that there has been little disturbance in population in the rest of the province as compared with 1911.Of late years, notably the last ten years, a number of smaller cities have grown up, such as Three Rivers, Shawinigan Falls, Sherbrooke, Hull, Grand\u2019Mere, Granby and La Tuque.Colonization Colonization in the Province of Quebec is being encouraged, and is on the increase.The Government spends over half a million dollars per year for building roads alone.Districts in northern Quebec, notably the Abitibi, have been growing rapidly, where the population has risen to 1 0,000 in the past six or seven years.Some Quebec Agricultural Figures Quebec\u2019s Asbestos Deposits OF THE known asbestos deposits of the world those in the Province of Quebec are the most important They supply over 85 % of the world\u2019s consumption of this substance.In 1919 the figures of production, or rather of shipments, from these deposits amounted to 160,000 tons of marketable asbestos and asbestic, representing a value of $1 1,000,000 at the mines.From all other sources, including the United States, Rhodesia, South Africa and China, the output in that year was in the neighborhood of 1 3,000 tons, valued at $2,000,000.In the latter figures, however, the Russian production, which was important before the war, is rot included, as nothing definite, or even indefinite, can be learned of the present state of this industry in the Ural Mountains.Asbestos is a mineral which is characterized by having a fibrous structure.In texture, in strength and in color it resembles silk, but it possesses the great additional advantage of being incombustible, or non-inflammable, and can stand very high temperature up to 4,000 degrees F., with impunity.Further, it is an excellent non-conductor of heat and of electricity.These qualities have given asbestos a very wide range of uses.It is employed in fire-proof fabrics for theatre curtains, safety garments for workmen in metallurgical works, and in combination with other materials such as rubber, cement tar, varnishes, cotton, for the manufacture of steam packings, gaskets, washers, brake lining, electric tubes and tapes, steam boiler and pipe coverings, fireproof felt and papers, asbestos shingles and boards, roofing sheets, and other articles too numerous to mention.To show that the uses of asbestos are extending daily, it is sufficient to mention that in the last decade the yearly Canadian production of asbestos has increased in value from $2,667,829 in 1910 to $10,995,300 in 1919.The asbestos deposits of the Province of Quebec possess one great advantage over all the others.Transport facilities are good.In fact, it was in the course of the construction of a railway between the cities of Quebec and Sherbrooke, » distance of 140 miles, that asbestos was discovered in the year 1877, in the district of Thetford Mines, which is now the most productive in the world.This district is situated 75 miles south of Quebec City, which has a harbor accessible during seven or eight months to ocean liners of large tonnage, and 65 miles north of Sherbrooke, which is connected with the railway systems of the United States.With two or three exceptions, the mines are within a few hundred feet of the main line of the Quebec Central Railway.That asbestos is present in depth has been ascertained by Figures on agriculture as compiled by Mr.C.E.Marquis, head of the Provincial Bureau of statistics, show as follows; In 1921 there were 180,616 acres of land under spring wheat cultivation, as against 222,045 acres in 1920 and 251,089 acres in 1919.Oats was grown on 2,366,610 acres, against 2,205,908 acres in 1920 and 2,141,107 acres in 1919.Barley was grown on 191,673 acres, against the cultivation of 194,444 acres in 1920 and 234,892 acres in 1919.Rye was grown on 24,940 acres in 1921 and in 1920 and 1919\ton 28,462 and 33,481 acres, respectively.The cultivation of peas in 1921 took 65,259 acres and 60,870 acres in 1920\tand 81,642 acres in 1919.The bean crop was grown on 28,272 acres, as against 35,835 acres in 1920 and 43,202 acres in 1919.The buckwheat acreage in 1921 was 1 50,666 acres, 151,765 acres in 1920 and 170,043 acres in 1919.Mixed grains were grown over an acreage of 168.245

Province of Quebec is divided into three classes, primary, classical colleges and universities.The primary schools are divided into four branches\u2014nursery, elementary primary, intermediate and superior primary.Elementary primary schools are most common, and are attended by children between the ages of 5 and 1 4.The intermediate primary are the model schools, and there is one in most of the villages of the province.The superior primary school, also known as the academy, completes the primary course of study, the full length of which is eight years.1 here are 300 of them in the province.Secondary education is given by the classical colleges and high schools, and is a preparation for the study of the liberal professions.Superior education is given in the four universities of the province, McGill, University of Montreal, Laval and Bishop s College at Lennoxville.There are fourteen normal schools, twelve schools of art and manufactures, three agricultural schools, more than fifty household science schools, a dairy school, a school of higher commercial studies at Montreal, five technical schools, and four schools for deaf-mutes and the blind.Fisheries The Province of Quebec has fisheries classed among the most extensive in the world.They are classified into two kinds, sea fisheries under the contwol of the Federal Government, and the inland fisheries under the control of the Quebec Government.The sea fishes are cod, herring, lobster, mackerel, salmon, haddock, sea-trout, halibut, hake, seals and whales.The inland fisheries are salmon, trout, eels, pickerel, carp, bass, cat-fish, pike, whitefish, sturgeon and perch.The touladi or fork-tailed trout are also found in several lakes, while Lake St.John, its tributaries and outlets are renowned for their ouananish or land-locked salmon.The Provincial Government grants to private individuals and registered fishing clubs, for a yearly rental, the exclusive right to fish in certain rivers and lakes in a territory whose area is specified.There are four hatcheries for re-stocking lakes and rivers with trout and salmon.ing was grown on 41,1 32 acres in 1921,47,741 in 1920, and 46,603 in 1919.The potato crop took 222,084 acres in 1921.310,692 in 1920 and 315,590 acres in 1919.The turnip, beet and rutabaga crop took 57,859 acres in 1921, 83,613 acres in 1920 and 87,496 acres in 1919.Hay and clover was a 4.455,971 crop in 1921, took 4,318,321 acres in 1920, and 4,299,360 acres in 1919.Fodder corn was grown on 89,546 acres, as against 86,833 acres in 1920 and 74,007 acres in 1919.The number of live

quarrying, and the largest excavation made has now attained the following dimensions: Length, 900 feet; width, 600 feet; depth, 210 feet.The ore now obtained at such depth is practically as rich in asbestos as in the zones near the surface.One of the mines possesses a reserve of ore \u201cblocked out\u2019 for thirty years to come at the present rate of mining.The investments of the 16 or 18 companies at present operating in the asbestos fields of the Province of Quebec, in mining and milling plants, represent several millions of dollars, and such expenditures were not made without firs' ascertaining the permanency of the deposits.The present known occurrences of asbestos in the Province of Quebec ensure a long life for the industry, but it may be stated that they only represent a small part of the potentialities.Serpentine is widely distributed in a zone or development of rocks, called \"The Serpentine Belt,\u201d several hundred miles long, which, in the asbestos mining district, ¦v here it is best known, is some four or five miles wide.As this belt has been little prospected or explored, it is quite reasonable to assume that the asbestos deposits are not limited to the four centres of Thetford, Black Lake, Danville and Broughton, where the mines at present producing are located.Mines The total value of the production of mines in the Province of Quebec is over $20,000,000.The asbestos mines, containing practically all the asbestos in the world, produces half of that amount, employs about 4.000 workmen and pays in wages about $4,000,000.The province is well endowed with quarries of great value.Water Power Tire gross water power of the rivers of the province is estimated at nearly 1 5,000,000 horse power, and of this total about 900,000 h.p.have been developed.The development of water powers is under the direction of the Quebec Streams Commission.Two important storage dams have been built.The Gouin reservoir at La Loutre, on the St.Maurice, is the largest reservoir in the world.It has a capacity of 160,000,000,000 cubic feet and u water area of 300 square miles.The storage permits of a regulated flow of water of over 12,000 cubic feet per second at Shawinigan.The dam on the St.Francis River stores 1 2,000,000,000 cubic feet, lire Commission\u2019s report on the Lake St.John possibilities indicates that if a dam were built at its outlet the water powers on the Grande-Decharge or on the Petite-Decharge would be nearly treble, about 800,000 horse power being then tavailablç.\t\u2022 rye, 436,500 bushels, valued at $371,000; peas,

COMPANY LIMITED with a capital of $75,000.00.They moved into their new building, No.19 Marquette St.on May 1st 1921.Here with increased space and new equipment they are m a better position than ever to give prompt attention and efficient service for every electrical want.They specialize in Motor Repairs and Electrical Contracting, install complete lighting and power plants, telephone systems, etc., and carry a large stock of new and used motors and electrical apparatus, in addition to a retail department where the stock includes Fixtures, Irons, Toasters and wiring supplies of all kinds.Mr.Wiggett, the founder and President, is a Sherbrooke boy.He has been in the Electrical business for thirty years, having followed it closely from its early stages to the present time.In 1890 he entered the employ of the Canadian Edison Company, leaving them to go to Peterborough.Leaving there he went to the Royal Electric Company and Montreal Street Railway Company, in Montreal.*He worked for the latter firm when they first changed from horse to electric cars.Since leaving Montreal he worked in the leading EJectrical Shops in Buffalo and Niagara Falls, N.Y.Leaving Niagara he came to Sherbrooke and entered the employ of the Jenckes Machine Co., where he took charge of the'electrical work for five years.In company with S.W.Jenckes he started the Electrical Repair & Supply Co., and

A PROVINCE From Lake Megantic to the shores of Missis-quoi Bay and from Inverness and Leeds to the International boundary is a section of country which has been aptly described as \u201cA Province Within a Province.\u201d Here is a distinct territory on the map of Canada\u2014eleven counties clearly defined.It is doubtful if any part of this Dominion, during twenty-five years, has enjoyed a more continuous measure of prosperity than these Eastern Townships.Villages have grown into prosperous towns and towns into cities and in the great agricultural districts crops have never failed.Many sons of the Eastern Townships have, during this period, gone far afield in search of the gold at the rainbow\u2019s end.1 heir steps may have led to the cities to the South or 'the prairies of the West.But, those who have remained ^have not been less happy, nor less prosperous nor less comfortable than those who went away.We believe a careful comparison would show the balance strongly on the side of the old home communities.There is a reason for Eastern Townships general prosperity.Industry is well balanced.Agriculture, with i t s mixed farming methods, may have its ups and downs but it never fails.Manufacturing, under the incentive of favorable conditions, has expanded and many industrial centers have developed, providing a home market for the farmer.The Forest Industry has grown until it represents an annual business of some fifteen million dollars, a tremendous factor in the district.Asbestos mining, in its infancy twenty years ago, has developed until in the value of its output ' it rivals that of the forests./ Such is this most fruitful part of Canada\u2019s most prosperous province.Three cities, Sherbrooke, Granby and Thet-ford Mines, have grown vastly in wealth and importance.Many towns have become industrial \u201chubs\u201d of their own important districts.To name a few\u2014Coaticook, Stanatead and Rock Island, Magog, Richmond, Danville, Windsor Mills, East

other small but progressive communities.There is an association as between one community and another in the Eastern 1 ownships such as is to be found in few similar territories» This has been brought about through such organizations as the Eastern Townships Associated Boards of Trade, the various agricultural organizations and other societies which have a common interest in this Southern Quebec country.The events of the great war served still further to strengthen these bonds of inter-community relationship.Such regiments as the 5th C.M.R.and the l 17th E.T.Battalion represented this section of Canada particularly in the grim work overseas.And what has the future in store for the Eastern Townships?There is reason for the greatest optimism in this regard.Eastern Townships agriculture will continue to hold its place.Mining and lumbering will continue to give employment and to engage capital in increasing volume.And of manufacturing, the beginning is only here.As the New England States became the great manufacturing area of the republic, so will Quebec become the great industrial province of Canada, and the natural advantages in power, labor and transportation, are bound to make of the cities and towns of Southern Quebec centers of this development.So, with the revival from the present period of slackness incidental to reconstruction and readjustment, let every community be on the alert.Let everybody talk the advantages of their own town.Let all be Eastern Townships\u2019 boosters.Have faith in your town and its possibilities to the end that the next decade or quarter century may exceed in progress and achievement the period that has passed.Editorial X J / > - m y r, i\\ A Now c -T A V \\ / V 0 IN Togethei Let Us Lift To Higher Planes The Old E.T.Of Quebec Kv 5 os

of the meat packing industry in the Eastern Townships are the firm of the Hovey Packing Company.Founded in 1889 as Hovey Bros, and reorganized in 1894 as The Hovey Bros.Packing Company, and again in 1920 under the present name, taking into the firm the two sons of the senior members.This company are wholesale dealers, packers and curers of Pork, Lard, Hams, Bacon, Sausages, etc., and cater to the trade that demands particular fine\taltogether better in quality and character than the average ISns.he greatest care is used in selecting hogs to be cured and packed, and the processes in use are up to date in every respect, and the packing house embraces a number of modern buildings fully equipped for curing and carrying a complete stock, and the most improved refrigerating appliances being in use.While handling the very best quality in all lines of fresh and cured meats including the very best heavy western steer beef, this firm have made a specialty of sugar cured Hams and Bacon and use special curing materials that give a flavor that just suits the refined taste.These products have acquired a just reputation of having no superiors among the fancy smoked meats on the market; indeed, in such a favorable regard are they held that orders are received not only from all parts of Quebec but from all the other provinces in the Dominion, as well as near and distant points in the

atmosphere, occupying 2400 square feet of floor space, the entire first floor up, of the Chagnon Block, 26-28 Wellington Street North, with a staff of eight competent employees in the height of the season with every machine that brain has invented for modern photography.In our Portrait Department we have from the Kiddie Car for baby, to the Grand Piano for the debutante's photograph, artificial lighting which brings night time into day-time, with the 6,000 candle power lamps we can turn on the sunshine at will during any one of the twenty-four hours.In Commercial work we again shine among the Industries from the CIRKUT Machine which makes one continuous picture up to eight feet long, (a complete circle) to the GRAFLEX Camera, for the famous Sears Action Photos with correct registration of the Baseball direct from the bat, to the Professional Ski Jumper 20'1 loet in mid-ail Prows* Our Enlarging and Printing Department ra equipped with electric printing machines which will

should be, and makes them lie perfectly flat for all times regardless of weather conditions.Our Coloring Department is gaining favor daily with three artists working with air-brushes which is the only correct way today for the perfect application of colors- While 1 92 1 has in many ways been an adverse yesr, the Studio shows an increase over the previous year*» business, some 300,000 prints were

follows: Properties Studebaker Cars In the year 1911 Mr.J.F.O\u2019Donnell started in a very small way selling \"E.M.F.and \u201cRussell\u201d cars in Danville.With a clear insight as to the possibilities which this business promised for the future, he in the year 1913 removed to Sherbrooke, where he established a garage at Front Street and where he sold the \u201cStudebaker\u201d and the \"Russell\u201d cars.Owing to the continued growth of this business, in 1916 he formed the partnership of O Donnell & Morissette, and Mr.Novat Chevalier became an active partner in the concern.In 1918 more room was again required, and they moved to Albert Street, and in the year following took possession of their present commodious Garage and Show Rooms, 34 Wellington Street Souths The steady upward progress of this Company, owing to their fine reputation for an absolutely square deal and for efficient, prompt service, warranted them in the year 1920 forming the joint stock company of O\u2019DONNELL & MORISSETTE, LIMITED, and in the same year they acquired the property of the E.T.Battery Company at 164 Wellington Street South, where all electric and battery work is efficiently taken care of, and built a handsome Branch Garage at Ihetford Mines.At the present time they represent the Studebaker Corporation in the counties of Sherbrooke, Stanstead, Richmond and Wolfe, Compton, Drummond, Arthabaska, Megantic, Shefford, Brome, Frontenac and Missisquoi.A casual glance on any road m this district during the season conclusively proves the success they have achieved in merchandising this well-known car, and the fact that their customers stay right with them is further evidence of the satisfaction they have experienced in receiving an honest deal and excellent service.Their garages are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for the convenience of their patrons, and they have at their disposal a staff of competent, courteous mechanics.O\u2019Donnell &

Forward all along the line for a better and bigger, a happier and more prosperous Sherbrooke.1 } SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD.FEBRUARY 9, 1922.PAGE TWENTYPTVE SHERBROOKE CITY OFFERS GREAT INDUCEMENT TO NEW INDUSTRIES 1\u2014\tCheapest labor market in the Dominion.2\u2014\tAbundance of Skilled Labor of all Classes.3\u2014\tMain Line Railway Connections via Canadian Pacific, Grand Trunk, Quebec Central and Boston and Maine.4\u2014\tShortest winter route for ocean transport.5\u2014\tLiberal exemptions in taxation and concessions in communal services obtainable.6\u2014\tExcellent living and social conditions.7\u2014\tGood factory sites.Some of Sherbrooke\u2019s Present Industries Canadian Brakeshoe Company, Limited.Canadian Ingersoll-Rand Company, Limited.The Superheater Company, Limited.E.and T.Fairbanks and Company, Limited.MacKinnon Steel Company, Limited.Sherbrooke Machinery Company, Limited.Canadian Connecticut Cotton Mills, Limited.The Dominion Metal Company, Limited.Whiting & Davis Company.Page Printing & Binding Company.C.Thompson & Company.Canadian Peerless Jewelry Company, Limited.Beckwith Box Toe Company.Silver Spring Brewery, Limited.Alex.Ames & Son, Limited.General Lumber and Manufacturing Company.Julius Kayser & Company, Limited.Paton Manufacturing Company, Limited-Sherbrooke Pure Milk Company.Canadian Sturdy Chain Company.Panther Rubber Manufacturing Company, Limited.Magog Woollen Mills.Bissell-Irwin Lumber Company.CHEAP f/ Distance from Sherbrooke To Sherbrooke \u2022 The Electric City Power Resources of the City of Sherbrooke Rock Forest «x*j t*'***»1* us.+M.»i 3000 i Drummond\t«.*»*-*« ?**-.*.j 800 H.P.Paton Mills\t1 520\tHL.\u2022 Frontenac Southern Canada Power\tr»-**J 4320 H.P.Weedon ***¦\"-\u201d\tr.r.T»*« 4000 hl.P» Two Miles Falls (Undeveloped)\t3500\tH.P.Westbury (Undeveloped)\t3500\tH.P.1 otal\t«\u2022\u2022»*»« 23320 Quebec -\t122 M.\tPhiladelphia -\t- 497 M.Chicoutimi -\t-\t350 M.\tAlbany -\t-\t- 325 M.Thetford Mines -\t68 M.\tPittsburg -\t- 851 M- Murray Bay - -\t211 M.\tCleveland -\t- 736 M.Riviere du Loup -\t236 M.\tDetroit -\t- 665 M, Rimouski -\t302 M.\tChicago -\t- 950 M.Halifax -\t-\t-\t650 M.\tBuffalo -\t-\t- 553 M.St.John\t375 M.\tToronto -\t-\t- 436 M.Portland Boston - - - -\t196 M.276 M.\tSt.Paul - -\t- 1360 M.Manchester - -\t220 M.\tVancouver\t2991 M.Providence -\t-\t320 M.\tWinnipeg -\t-\t1559 M.Worcester -\t283 M.\tOttawa -\t- 217 M.New London -\t360 M.\tMontreal - -\t- 101 M.Hartford -\t298 M.\tSt.Johns - -\t-\t77 M.Springfield -\t-\t273 M.\tSt.Hyacinthe\t-\t66 M.New Haven - -\t334 M.\tThree Rivers\t-\t94 M.New York -\t412 M.\tShawinigan -\t- 114 M.Washington -\t-\t633 M.\tDrummondville\t- 94 M.POWER H.P.C.O Limited An Achievement in the Course of Ten In July 1912, a freshly painted sign was hung above the door of a newly renovated building at 1 00 Wellington Street.The premises were moderate and small, the area being 25x30 representing 750 feet of floor space in all.devoted to Dry Goods specialties and Ladies\u2019 Ready-to- Wear.\t.\t_\t.,\t, We began operations on the 2nd of July.1 he event was neither dramatic nor exciting, but results were fairly gratifying.F or the first year our turnover was very satisfactory.The next season we decided to take part of the first floor above, to facilitate the handling of Ready-to-Wear.\" This enlargement was good for a little more than two years.In the fifth year, we made another enlargement doubling our capacity.This time it made our store on par with those of our competitors for size at least.Thus having a fairly good place we were in a position to handle more goods and effect a bigger turnover.Our ambition was not altogether realized, for we wanted a building in keeping with the merchandise we handled and to strengthen the cooperation of our help; we wanted to be in a position to offer them participating interest in the business.The achievement of our dreams was realized when, in April, 1920, we gave a contract for the building we are now occupying.\t\u2022> ' I*\"' !%' 1 MS ' l t Safayt-JeaR'a Store, Main Section, also ShoT.-in» Mezzanine yrith Tea Room.THE 6 000 FEET OF FLOOR SPACE IN OUR NEW STORE IS DIVIDED AS FOLLOWS: Mam Section comprises 2,400 feet, and is devoted to Silks, Dress Fabrics and Accessor-ies;

made in Canada.Mill, and paper machinery was af- ( The Sherbrooke Daily Record has terwards added.In 1901 this pulp | purchased its supply of newsprint and paper mill were entirely de stroyed by fire, and as this was the best asset of the Company, the fire proved a very serious blow.The loss was met by an issue of preferred stock; some changes on the directorate were made, Sir H.Montagu Allan was elected President, and Mr.F.J.Campbell, then manager of the Toronto branch, was appointed General Manager.The Head Office of the Company was moved to Windsor Mills and work was vigorously begun on what is now the Company\u2019s St.Francis Mill.This mill began operation in 1902, and now has a daily capacity of sixty tons of pulp and fifty-five tons of paper.The New Windsor Mill.In 1908 Mr.Joseph Kilgour, of Toronto, became associated with the April 20.\u2014Huerta refuses to sa- 1852 Oner.ing to Sherbrooke of the n j U\t1?ress lute U.S.flag.Crisis created.\tGrand Trunk\u2019Railway.Event was\t,Re,cord\ttbe April 20\u2014Hen.George _ Perley celebrated on Sept.11th.\tpers ^n^n^houT \" °f llf000 pa* Oct.4.\u2014 Indignation expressed erver action of Supreme Court I.O.F.80,000 Foresters affected by new policy.$250 lien put on new policy.Oct.4.\u2014His Excellency Mgr.Stagni, Papal delegate, given wel- Sher- at appointed Canadian High Commis sioner in London.April 25.\u2014Railway station Waterville destroyed by fire.April 27.\u2014Parcel Post limited to *y& E3&.»< Awn, to», 1853 Bishop\u2019s University, Letmox-ville, receives its royal charter.1855 Provincial exhibition held in Sherbrooke.1858 The Passumpsic Railway reach- Development of the Business.After this the business of the firm grew rapidly, and in 1873 the old firm was formed into a limited company, with Mr, William Angus as President, and Mr.Thomas Logan as Works Manager.Shortly afterwards the Company built a second mill,! from the Canada Paper_ Company for over twenty years.This now exceeds two hundred tons, or twelve car loads annually.Some of the Company\u2019s Special Products.Besides manufacturing a line of special papers, the Cananda Paper Company has been very successful in the-production of specialties!
