Lumber, timber, planks and boards, G.$3,693,000; wood pulp C.$2,004,000; lead G.$3,273,000; zinc spelter G.$1,800,000; alumi num G.$1,040,000; fish G.$1,000,- 000; besides several hundred thousand dollars worth of each of the following items-flour, rubber, tyres, hides and, skins, beef, butter, condensed milk,

paper, automobiles, asbestos and fer- tilizer.

Agriculture.

Within the thirty-seven years between 1890 and 1027, the | acreage devoted to wheat crops in Canada has quadrupled. In 1870, the wheat crop amounted to 20 million bushels, in 1900 to 55% million, and now the average

nnual crop amounts to more than" 400 million bushels.

The growth in the production of oats la proportional to that attained in wheat, and the annual barley crop is now about 100 mil- lion bushels.

Improvement has taken place in mothods of farming as well as in acreage and value of production. Throughout the farming com. munities more and more attention is being devoted to dairy products, In 1925, the value of these pro-
