Mr. Grahamasked the Secretary for Mines whether he has any information regarding the price of pit timber; and, if so, will he state the amount of the increase?
§ Captain CrookshankWhile I have no general information about prices of pit wood, I understand that prices have risen considerably during the past year, these increases ranging in some cases as high as 160 per cent, for imported and 60 per cent. for home-grown timber.
