MONTHLY LUNCHEONS FOR NEW LISKEAD BOARD At the annual meeting of the New Liskeard Board of Trade last week it was decided to hold a business men‘s luncheon early in January, and if successful it will be made a monthâ€" ly affair. The idea, apparently, is to attract attendance and interest by the luncheon idea. New Liskeard Board of Trade, like some other Boards of Trade elsewhere, has been finding it difficult to secure a good attendance at all meetings and to keep up interâ€" est. The luncheons are hoped to overcome some of the neglect or inâ€" difference. If New Liskeard â€" carmies on the plan of monthly luncheongs, the idea will be closely followed along by other towns to see how it works out. Last year a similar idea was suggestâ€" ed in connection with the Timmins Board of Trade, but its operation was deferred, with the idea that it might be given a test this year. bers, Division Court Clerk,.

The little lad, with the younger child of the family, had been amusing themselves on the kitâ€" chen floor while their mother was atâ€" tending to the family washing . Mrs. Clem lifted a boiler of hot water from the stove and placed it on the floor while she turned to put some things on the table. With her attention diverted the younger child pushed Ralph and he fell into the scalding hot water sustaining terrible injuries to his back.. Medical assistance was quickly procured and the child was ordered to the hospital at Cobalt, but he died while the train was beâ€" tween â€" Haileybury and the local station.‘‘ When you play don‘t make it work; and when you work, don‘t play. * Does a golfer ever tell the truth ‘*‘Oh, certainlyâ€"he sometimes calls another golfer a liar.‘‘ Sydney Bulâ€" letin. BE CAREFUL OF FRE IN GHRIGTMAS DECORATIONS Canadian Fire Underwriters‘ Assocâ€" iation Issue Usual Yearly Warning to the Public. The Canadian Fire Underwriters‘ Assoctation has issued the following cireular. While it applies mainly to stores, it applies also to every home which is decorated for Christmas: Following our usual custom at this season of the year, I beg to draw your attention to the danger to life and property from Christmas decorations, such as draperies, scenery, cotton to represent snow, ete. Displays of this nature, and the lighting arrangeâ€" ments in connection therewith, add very to the ordinary risks of fire. I would also point out that should an accident of the kind oceur in a crowded store or meeting, the rapid spread of fire in such inflanmable material is almost certain to occaâ€" sion a panic with attendant risks to life and limb. The National Fire Proâ€" tection Association and the Ontario Fire Marshal recommend that all fabâ€" ries for decoration purposes should be immersed in a solution of Commerâ€" cial Ammonium Phosphate in the proâ€" portion of one pound of Phosphate to one gallon of water. If then slightly wrung and dried they will offer conâ€" siderable resistance to fire until again washed. If this is not practicable, a few simple preéecautions may reduce the danger to a minimum, and these should be considered essential where large numbers of people and particuâ€" larly children are to be gathered. See that inflammable material is clear of an® not hung over heating and lighting devices, steampipes, stovepipes, electric light bulbs, ete. See that your electrical cireuits are properly fused and not overloaded by the addition of temporary lights. Examine your fire extinguishing apâ€" pliances and see that they are suffiâ€" cient, in good order and readily acâ€" cessible. See that all exits are plainly marked and not obstructed. Remember that nothing can render these displays absolutely safe, and that if awccidents are not to mar the festive season, constart vigilance and care must be exercised. NORTH LAND TO BEGOME GREAT DAIRY SEGTION Assistant Superintendent at Kapusâ€" kasing Farm Shows Reasons For This Opinion. Mr. L. H. Hanlan, Assistant Superâ€" intendent of the Dominion Experiâ€" mental Farm at Kapuskasing, writes The Advance as follows:â€"Northern Ontario is bound to ibecome a great dairy section. Forage crops such as clovers, alfalfa, sunflowers, annual hays, grasses and turnips, all grow well. * In order to keep these creameres in operation throughout the year, and thereby lower the cost of operation and at the same time hold a market for their output, more attention must be given to winter dairying. This is fortunate rather than otherwise because, if milk production is not continued throughout a part of the winter season at least, the industry can never develop as it should. At the Dominion â€" Experimental Station, Kapuskasing, Ont., it has been found that by bringing the mileh cows into the stable during the cold nights in the fall, giving them a little extra care and attention and supplementary feeding with turnips or other sucâ€" culent foeds, the lactation period can be materially ‘engwthened and the milk flow reasonably well maintained durâ€" ing the winter months. It has also been noted thaf there is a tendency for cows freshening in the fall to give larger yearly milk and fat welds than those freshening in the spring. Many mileh cows have been brought to new Ontario during the past sumâ€" mer and a number of new creameries have been established. A farmer must have fair stables and give his cattle reasonable care during the winter whether they are milking or_ not. Consequently it would pay him to give the stables little more preparation from the standpoint of sanitation and comfort, and to feed and care for his cows in such a manner that the milk and cream production will be maintained as far into the winter as possible thus creating a revenue from his herd the vear around. TO CHANGE THE NAME OF ROUYN MINES RAILWAY To facillitate the financing of the construction of the new Rouyn Gold Mines Railway, which is to run from O‘Brien to the centre of the northâ€" western gold fields, Rouyn tewnship, application will be made at the next session by the Rouyn Mines Railway asking to change its name into that of the ‘*National Transcontinental Railâ€" way Branch Lines Company."" The word mine contained in the firstâ€"name chosen by the ecompany was objected to on the ground that it might interâ€" fere wih the financing of the railway, the construction of which has now been started.
