No Fear That Supplies Will Run Short—
Some Conned Goods Scarce

All freight for Hazelton which
reached Prince Rupert before the
first of October was brought up
the river, and there is no danger
of scarcity in any of the necess-
aries of life during the coming
winter. In some commodities,
however, merchants were unable
toobtain as large stocks as they
desired. The principal line in
which there is a shortage is
canned fruits and vegetables.
The ‘producers of these goods
were only able to fill from: fifty
to seventy-five per cent of the
orders received, with the result
that the local stores are already
running short.
