EVINRUD 



DETACHABLE ROWBOAT AND CANOE MOTOR 



A practical, powerful and reliable gasoline motor that can 

 be attached to any rowboat in less than a minute; may also be 

 attached to canoes, duck boats and all manner of small craft. 

 Easy to handle and extremely economical to run. Will last a 

 lifetime in ordinary use. 



Very efficient for towing heavy loads. 



Exclusive features of the EVINRUDE motor: Built-in-the- 

 flywheel Magneto and Automatic Reverse. 



In addition to the 2 H.P. and 3^ H.P. models offered 

 heretofore, which are of the i -cylinder, 2-cycle type, a new 

 model is being placed on the market. This new model is of the 

 2-cylinder, 4-cycle type and develops fully 4 H.P. It has been 

 especially designed for speed, giving easily from 8 to 9 miles 

 an hour, with an ordinary boat. All the conveniences and 

 safeguards which distinguished the 1915 models will be found 

 in the new 19 16 EVINRUDE Speed Motor.

province of the Dominion and edu- 

 cate the settlers to use the utmost 

 •care and judgment in setting out 

 fires in order that destructive con- 

 flagrations may not spread and re- 

 sult in the loss of much valuable 

 timber. The man who goes into any 

 new country in order to clear and 

 cultivate land should be accorded 

 the maximum freedom and encour- 

 agement. The least hindrance pos- 

 sible should be put in the way of the 

 .settler, and every acre of real agri- 

 cultural land should be placed under 

 cultivation. As pointed out by Mr. 

 Black, there is no desire to conserve 

 the forest growth on land that will 

 grow grain or vegetables, but one 

 •object the Forestry Association has 

 in view is to save the people the 

 forests which are growing on soil 

 that is fit for nothing else. 



There is really no excuse for a 

 loss of several million dollars every 

 year in Canadian timber. If proper 

 steps are taken the steady depletion 

 of the forests by fire and careless 

 cutting may be averted." 



To which the Kenora 'Examiner' 

 adds : 



"It happened during the last gold 

 rush in this district that prospec- 

 tors started bush fires to bare the 

 rocks so as to make prospecting 

 easier. This should entitle the 

 starter to a job in the penitentiary."

 meeting was held at Calgary from 

 February 28th to March 7th inclu- 

 sive, by direction of Mr. E. H. Fin- 

 layson, District Inspector of Forest

 to call the Supervisors in to Calgary 

 once a year for the purpose of dis-
