BARNJUM It is only fair to say that in the past few years the Abitibi Power Poper Co. has actually gone out of its way to buy pulpwood from some of the settlers in the district who were in bad cireumstances, In the desire to ‘‘help out,‘‘ the Iroquois Falls concern has inconvenienced itself and perhaps lost some money. . At least it has made no profit from this part of its business, though it has been of material service to the settlers. Howâ€" ever, the fact remains that there is not enough demand from the Canaâ€" dian mills to take up the supply of pulpwood, and until there is, the proâ€" posed pulpwood embargo would be most undesirable. Why don‘t you send a cireular letâ€" ter to all the mills in Ontario and (Quebee with your offerings of pulpâ€" wood. 1 know I:am only too glad to have an opportunity of buying farâ€" mers‘ wood, and I cannot see any reason why they should feel any difâ€" ferently.

In those areas contrary to the condition in our westâ€" ern prairies where agriculture was the first industry to develop, mining, along with forestry, is the pioneer industry. â€" It is not difficult to underâ€" stand why this is so. The opening up of mines and the establishment of mining communities furnish a market for products of the farm. The opâ€" portunity to supply that market is an incentive to the settler to undertake the cultivation of land in the vieinity of mining towns. * The exploitation of mineral deâ€" posits may lead also to the ereetion Mr. Camsell recalled that there was not. a soul twentyâ€"four years ago in the territory now known as the Porâ€" cupine gold fields. In the past twenty years mines in that territory had pruduced gold and silver to the value of $150, UOO 000, and were now supporting directly or indirectly a population ~of about 25,000 people In addition, the operation ‘of the mines. was stlmulatmfl' the developâ€" ment of afmculture in that part of the Provinces The Deputy Minister of Mines said that the finding of placer gold in Britâ€" ish Columbia in 1860 and later had laid the foundation of permanent setâ€" tlement in a large section of that Proâ€" vince and the development of agriâ€" cultural _ resources. _ Similary, the Sudbury nickel deposits had. opened the Chelmsford basin. to: agricultural settlement and the exploitation of the silver mines of the Cobalt district had been followed by colonization of the area about Lake Temiskaming. More than passing interest has been _ roused by a recent address by Mr. Chas. Camsell, Deputy Minister of Mines, Ottawa Mr. Camsell enâ€" larged upon the idea of the profound influence upon civilization and proâ€" rress in the world that was exercised by the discovery and use of minerals. It is a theme upon which little has been said during recent years, even in places like Timmins, where the importance of the mining industry is seltâ€"evident. _ There is, of course, a more or less general tendeney to conâ€" sider the mining industry from its immediate and material aspects. It is easily recognized that mining by, the very nature of the industry, is of great importanee to a country, and that it is a very material factor in progress and prosperity. Most peoâ€" ple, especially in mining areas, unâ€" derstand this quite clearly. The imâ€" portance of the mining industry upon history and eivilization is not so selfâ€" evident. But a study of history and various countries will show the effect of the discovery and use of minerals upon the general progress and upon the finer arts of civilization. Mr. Camsell mentioned the comment of Professor de Launay, the noted French geologist, coneerning the civilizing power of the discovery of gold, that ‘‘it is the labor of the mines that prepares the way for the wagon.‘" | Deputy Minister of Mines at Ottawa Touches on Interesting Theme in Recent Address. INFLUENGE OF MINERALS UN GIVILIZATION AND ART Conditions may be different in Nova Scotia, where Mr. Barnjum is in business. But in Ontario, an emâ€" bargo on pulpwood would be nothing more nor less than an injury to the settlers. Mr. Rowlandson suggests the one type of embargo that would preserve Canadian pulpwood for Caâ€" nada‘s advantageâ€"the buying by Canadian mills of the pulpwood at fairâ€"prices. Canadian settlers would prefer to sell to Canadian mills. found necessary in sdome cases to grant premits for export because there was no demand for the wood here.

TO DISCUSS FURTHER SCHOOL ACCOMMCDATION If that junfavorable balance were overcome by expansion of industries im Canada, the mineral resources of the country would exert a still greater influence upon its development. It is recorded that in 1924, the primary mining industries of the dominion, producing raw material, much of which was exported. employed 65,573 workers, paid $82,602,180 in wages and had an output value at $194,.747,â€" 644. Industries that work up the raw minerals employed 131,000 workâ€" ers, paid $165,605,325 in wages and sold goods to the value of $684.339,â€" Canada exports raw minerals of great ralue and imports articles made from minerals to a still greater value. He has estimated that Canada had an unâ€" favorable balance of trade in minerâ€" al products to the amount of $170,â€" 000,000 in 1924 and operation of refining plants and factories in which raw minerals are worked up into finished goods.
