Bodard "Les Colonies de Langue Francaise Dans la province de Manitoba", pp559-571.

All of these features are clearly back dropped by the multicolored Rural Municipal regions, as they existed in 1891. Other articles on commercial prospects in Hawaii (by M.L. Ratard), Thailand, Laos, journalism in China.
