Excerpt from Quebec, the Land of Plenty: Wood, Minerals, Agriculture and Industries Quebec is the New France that Champlain founded, that Frontenac defended, that Vaudreuil surrendered. One hundred and forty-five years have passed since the flag of France ceased to wave over the valley of the St. Lawrence. To-day the French language is the mother tongue of a million and a half of its inhabitants, French civil law prevails and the church of the French-Canadiau people enjoys practically the same rights and privileges that it enjoyed under the flag of the Bourbons. Measuring from Lake Temiscamingue east to Anse an Blanc-Sablon in the Straits of Belle Isle the length of the province is nearly 1,000 miles, and its breadth is 300. Its area, including the islands, the most important of which arc Anticosti, Magdalen, 351.873 square miles. The surface of the country is exceedingly varied and picturesque, embracing several mountain ranges, rolling hills, numerous rivers, several of which are of the largest size. The lakes number thousands, great and small, and the forests cover vast tracts still unsettled and awaiting the axe of the lumberman and the clearing of the pioneer. The older settled portions of the Province are a beautiful and exceedingly productive farming country. The upper portion of the valley of the St. Lawrence and the valley of the Richelieu are level like the prairies of the far West.

Excerpt from Forest Products of Canada, 1910: Lumber, Square Timber, Lath and Shingles It is interesting to note that the increase in the lumber cut of Canada and the United States is about in proportion. The total cut in Canada for 1910 is a little less than one-ninth of the lumber cut of the United States for 1909, and a little less than the combined cut of the States of \vashington and Maine in 1909.

Excerpt from Present and Possible Products From Canadian Woods Specially manufactured products include hundreds of different kinds of articles wholly or partly constructed of wood. In Canada this group probably accounts for r 5 per cent. Of the total wood cut.
