‘*Not only have we an unusual numâ€" ber of the kind of prospectors who work for themselves and by themselves {and to our mind these are the type of men most likely to bring in big things) but we have scores of parties out for the big mining companies and for the millionaire exploration comâ€" panies that have suddenly become a tremendous factor in prospecting. One Cobalt company that ordinarily has two or three parties in the field this year has twelve. And so it goes. ‘"‘If past experience is any guide, There have been several references to the fact that no new important disâ€" coveries of gold have been reported in recent months although there are more prospectors on the trail then has been the case for years. An answer to this idea is made at least indirectly in a editorial in last week‘s Northern Miner. The Northern Miner says:â€" ‘‘Three times as many prospectors as last year are in the bush, And they‘re working. They‘re looking for new finds and they‘re making older finds look good.

This, according to report, has attracted the attention of British aireraft manuâ€" facturers, with the result that they are planning to make greater efforts to secure Canadian orders which go outâ€" side of the country. It is at the same time striking to note cision to extend in that direction. The Western â€" Canadian Airways, with hearlquarters at . Winnipeg, for inâ€" stance, from a beginning with a single plane, has now 31 units in operation, plying to the mining fields and on other services. This company had an outstanding winter record in its operâ€" ation under difficult conditions into the hinterland, transporting 185,000 lbs. of express and 10,000 lbs. of air mail, as well as 1,428 passengers, covering in all some 101,000 miiles. The first commercial flying company west of Winnipeg on the prairies has been established at Calgary and is in operation to various Alberta points, constituting at the same time another link in a coast to coast chain. _ A service on the Pacific coast will conâ€" nect with Calgary, and thus complete a series of flying services to Winniâ€" peg. It is to be noted at the same time that a passenger service between Minneapolis and Winnipeg is projectâ€" ed. the number of light aeroplanes which are being purchased for private use. All this development â€" definitely pointing to a great aeronautical fuâ€" ture for the Dominion has naturally imparted a considerable stimulus to the manufacture of aireraft in Canâ€" ada, which is assuming the proporâ€" tions of an important industry. The Canadian Vickers was the first comâ€" pany to engage in this work in Canâ€" ada and its activities have rapidly panded until a great variety of planes for Canada‘s many purposes are beâ€" ing turned out.

The Canadian Pacific Express Comâ€" pany lost no time in taking advantage of the establishment of air routes and has made contract for the carriage of express materials by these services. Such convenience to the public will be extended with air mail facilities.
