In Toronto: Bank of Ottawa It is well known that the supply of brick throughout the Province and more particularly in the large towns suc! as Hamilton and Foronto, is iar short of the demand, so mach so thit millions are ship>cd every year from di places, in the United States and Great Britain, and in consequence of this increased demand, the price of brick ha risen very considersbly in the course of the last few years and appears likely to rise still higher owing to the enor mous amount of construction work proceeding throughout the Proviace. Many hundreds of contracts are held up svery year because of the inability of builders and contractors to ob tain the necessary supplies, and this condition of affairs seems likely to continue until such time as the manufactur of brick is very greatly increased. _ c cer 2A wix®s, $ f | 2 in Toronto: H.
