Because.of its proximity to the coast
and to local, but diminishing, stands of
merehanfable timber, the resident in
this valley is in an enviable position
in the matter of building lumber,
Where shingles, for instance cost $3
to #5 per M. and milled lumber from
$10 to $20 per M- more in the northern
parts of this province and on the
prairies, the local resident is able to
obtain for his use the very widest sel-
eetion of ‘materials at absolutely first
cost.

This is an advantage more consider-
able than most people realize.
