THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO NIGHT HAWK PENINSULAR AGAIN SEEKING CAPITAL. ‘"‘In a climate such as is found in Northern Ontario it is very important that varieties of cereals suitable to the district be sown. Where ripened grain is desired, for instance, only early maturing varieties should hbe selected. ‘‘At the Experimental Station, Kapuskasing, during the past five years, three varieties of wheat, viz., Huron, Marquis and Ruby have been grown and gave yields of 28 bushels, T4 1b 20 "‘bushels,, and: 19 bushels, 29 lb. respectively. Five varieties of oats were grown as folâ€" lows::~ Victory,; Goldâ€". Rain,. Banner, Alaska and Liberty, and gave the folâ€" lowing yields for a three year averâ€" age: 67 bushels, 15 1b., 65 bushels, 16 lhb., 63 bushels, 28 Ib., 53 bushels, 31 lb., 42 bushels, 5 lb. respectively. Liberty is a hulless variety and is well adapted for feeding poultry or young stock. Alaska is a very early maturing variety and should be grown by the average settler who wishes to have mature grain. Barley is one of the ‘best grains for this district and should be grown by every settler. Four varieties have been grown at this station the past four years, nameâ€" ly, QO.A.C.â€"21 Manchurian, Himalayan and Duckbill and gave the following vie]ds, 39 bushels, 42 lb., 39 bushels, 9 1b.,; 32 l)ushels, 28 lb. and 39 bushels, 15 lb. It is interesting to note that the Canada Milling Company of Monâ€" treal,. has found O.A.C.â€"21 barley a splendid variety for malting purposes and is assisting, with prize money, the Field Competition for Registered Barley. Every settler in the north who can grow three acres of Regisâ€" tered Barley should do so. 25â€"cyele basis, the Indian Chutes plant being 60â€"cyele. _ The change means the installation of expensive equipâ€" ment by the Night Hawk and for the present the mine is not financially preâ€" pared for this. As a consequence unâ€" less the Night Hawk secures addiâ€" tional capital at once, it will be necessary to close the mill down. It is understood that preparations along this line have already been made. aUITABLE VARIETIEG OF GEREALS FOR THE NORTH Every Settler who can Should Grow Three Acres of Barley Says Kapuskasing Farm Superâ€" intendent.

If a decision is not arrived at within the next few days we are ready to build a power plant ourselves. â€" Plans are ready now for the first unit."‘ A rumor last week said> Noranda had been offered a million dollars for its power rights by Nesbitt Thompson interests, but the story has no conâ€" firmation so far as the amount is conâ€" cerned. If as the Noranda official first quoted says, Nesbitt Thompson or International Paper are not able to supply Noranda power as cheaply as they themselves can make it, Norâ€" anda is prepared to develop its, own rights on the Upper Ottawa. Norâ€" anda, it is said wants power for aâ€" round $30 a horse power as compared with $50 in Poreupine and from $60 to $100 in other northern éamps. Norâ€" anda has the right to develop a miniâ€" mum of 20,000 h.p. free and the adâ€" ditional right to develop more at the usual charges. With the additional storage reservations the total power production can be more than doubled according to the best engineering adâ€" vice available. Noranda has had an examination made, and the estimates were submitted showing that powe could be delivered at the Horne proâ€" perty for $25 or less.â€" The transporâ€" tation of materials to build the power plant has already been investigated. It is quite feasible to take in all necesâ€" sary material by the water route from â€" Angliers. For this purpose scows will be put in service and they would be pulled by heavy power boats A light railway would be required across the Sturgeon Landing portage, which is about one mile in length. Noranada has been assured by enginâ€" eers that the plant could be completed and power delivered at the Horne Mine by the spring of 1927."" w W *# # t# #* #*, * *# #* t# *# * # La #* w *# # # # *# t # # # *# #* # *# m *# e * ## # * #* # hd ## *# t# w4 # # #* # Li *# 4 *# # *# Lnd ## @4 # t# # *# ## # *# # *# ## # *# ## # *# w# *# tÂ¥ # # ## ##4 # # «o4 #4 ## # *# t# # *# #4 o# ®#. # ##4 w# # NORANDA MAY FURNISH ITS OWN POWER IN ROUYN Silver Collection taken at the Door AT THE GOLDFIELDS THEATRE Sunday, MAY 2nd at 8.30 p.m. A French and English Play will be Given THE DALY TEA COMPANY, LTD.
