sources of the Great Mackenzie
Bacin, in the Northwest Terri
tory, is un interesting document.
There are u.OOO miles or coast
in the Uasin. and about 0,500
miles of the continuous lake,
and-river navigation. Of the
whole area, 030,000 square
miles are suitable for the growth
of jwtatoes, 4.07.0U0"for barley,
818.000 for wheat: while the

bits of all sorts, including the
auriferous strata and the coal
formations. More important
than all, it is said that a petro

been found, and that Canada J
