Louis D. Hunstoon, consulting engineer and an cit-professor of mining at Yale, who is regarded as an authority on gold .pro- duction, made the prediction years ago that in 1928 Canada would over- take the United States, and he ad- heres to it at the present time. The deciding factor, in his Opinion, will be the Kirkland Lake Camp, where he expects to see the production reach $12,000,000 as com‘pared with $9,700,- 000 in 1927. Canada’s 'gold :production in 1928, according to Mr. Hunstoon’s estimate will be 'between $44,000,000 and $47,- 000,000, the latter of which figures, or to an extent lower, will give the Dominion a plage ahead of the United .‘States and subservient only to South Africa as a gold producer. His esti- mate is made up as follows:â€" Onta- H Mildel; Sweeter; Digger Be tter' a brief delay of the inevitable, and "before long Canada will only be sur- passed by one country in annual out- put of the precious mineral. Transvaal gold production in 1927 was more than five times as great as that of Canada, though the produc- ,tion of the South Africa field has not increased greatly in recent years while that of Canada has been grow- ing by leaps and bounds. In 1927 the Transvaal accounted for roughly 50 per cent. of the world’s gold pro- duction and Canada for 9.3 per cent. In 1920, however, when the South African production represented over 47 9per cent. of world output, Cana- da’s was only‘4.3 of the total. The production of gold has for some time been steadily increasing in Canada, while it has been as consis- tently declining in the United States since 1915, when a pinnacle of $101,- 035,700 was reached. Gold produc- tion in Canada in 1927 has been pm» visionally estimated at $37,731,080, - ._ -_-.. rio $38, 000 000 to $40,000, 000; Quebec $1, 000 ,000 , other provinces 041-000, 000__to $6,900, 000. n .-I I n an increase of $1, 467, 970 over the previous year. United States pro- duction in 1927 is placed at $46,276, 299, a decline of $1, p680, 704 from the prgvious vear. ‘A.\I‘ f0 Compared with the year ,1920 Ca- nada’s gold production has increased by $21,916,982, or by 138 per cent., and against the production of 1910 an increase of $27,528,255, or approxi- mately 270 .per. cent. is recorded. Be- tween 1920 and 1927 United States gold prduction fell away by $4,910,- 611, or 9 per cent., and between 1910 and 1927 the decline amounted to $45,109,400, 0:: 56 per cent. Thus it. is reasonably 'clear that even should the Dominion not overtake the.Re- public in the present year it is merely To what heights Canada will event- ually reach as a producer of gold even the most expert authorities would hesitate to, say. Though her record to date is a notable one, Canada’s history as a gold producer is but opening.up. With established camps definitely upromised long leases of life- and new ones whose worth has been established but the extent of which cannot even be guessed at, a wonder- ful and assured future awaits her in this connection. TO DEVELOP PROPERTY IN LAN GMUIR TOWNSHIP The Toronto Mail Empire last week says: â€"“An eminent Danish geologist once predicted that there was a mineral area at the southern extremity of Night Hawk Lake and if p1 operly developed it would become an important centre of mining activi~ ty. Word has just come to 'hand of important developments in this sec- tion of the Porcupine Camp. Con- siderable wo1k is now being planned in the vicinity of the Northern Dana- da Power Company’s transmission line. Night Hawk Lake Mines, oper- ating near the southern boundary of Langmuir Township, will soon com- mence diamond drilling and sinking on a vein discovered last summer. The real significance of this discovery was not realized by the directors un- til late last fall. It is understood that the vein showed high assays in lead and silver. Chalcopyrite, accomâ€" panied by bornite, was strongly in evidence in sections of the vein.’ THE PORCUPIN E ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The freshmen at Rutgers College, answering a questionnaire, said they came there for professional ,training and not for athletics.

A;erages $9.00 per on The ofiicial report of Professor \\"\ S.

Professor R. J. Montgomery of the University of Toronto has made physical tests of 33 samples of clay from these rivers, 21 of them proving first-class refractories, and 4 non-re~ fractory. Some are suitable for the manufacture of stone“ a1e goods and sew er- pipe, 01 0the1 vitrifiedpr oducts, as well as firebrick. Otheis are suit- able for retorts, crmibles, or firebriek in the c: ude state, -,and if washed, for the manufactme of electrical or sanitary procelain, as well as floor and wall tiles, ‘ Some idea of their value can be gained from the fact that, in 192 .3,413 tons of fire-clay were ploduc d in Canada at a total selling value of $21, 958, or an average of a little more than $9 per ton. \Vhile certain things have to be done yet before an industry can be established, Professor Dyer states un- hesitatingly that the deposits are ex- tensive, that the market for fire-clay and fire-clay products is large, and that transportation costs should not be prohibitive once a spur line rail- way is built to the deposits. A Q .The White quartz sands were found to be of a fair grade, but at the low prices obtainable, transportation costs the report .points out, would seriously interfere with marketing them.

Noel, Haileybury, died some days ago from diphtheria. The child was in only. two days, having been at school pre- viously apparently in the best of health. The residence of the family was quarantined and other precau- tions taken to avoid any further cases of the disease. It is not expect- ed that other cases will develop, though so far as known the origin of the disease is not apparent in the case of the young girl passing away. In the current issue of the Mining Chronicle, F. J. Crawford points out that the mining industry of Canada may be said to have won the confi- dence of the people at large. The discovery and development of “on- derfulgmineral wealth in many sec- tions of the country, and the perform- ances of mines that have reached a producing basis a.1e responsible for this. A mining enteiprise during its early formative pe1iod is pretty gen- erally recognized as speculative, and this factor should always be kept in mind. The past twelve months hme witnessed inanv impressive develop- ments in the industry, but none “we of greater importance than the influx of new money fm the development1 of mines. which, has been on a steadily increasing scale. Beenuse of the mil- lions of new money that has gone into mine development during' the past year there is every prospect that 1928 will be a period of important new achievements.

On several occasions. The Advance has referred to the matter ofkkeeping goats in this North Land. There are several in the North who have tried out this and found it. profitable and successful. There is a goat farm near Cochrane that has made a success of the venture, and several around New Liskeard and district have also found the keeping of goats profitable and interesting. Years ago, there were some goats kept in Timmins, butlwith‘ the growth of the town to city pry- portions they appear now to be out of place in town. ‘In Chicago and New. York, however, the keeping of goats has continued to this day. Some years ago there were sections of New York City that were fa'mous for their number of goats and the amount of clothes eaten by them from lines of washing out. Writing last week in The New Liskeard Speaker, Mr. Ed. «Sampson, of Leeville, says :â€"â€"- Why not a milk goat or two? How is it that people in this counv try do not keep milk goats as a means of supplying cheap and healthy milk to their families? ' Goat Milk Rich and Healthful. Goats are Immune to Tuberculosis Having lived in the Coast province for some years it struck me as re- markable that people living in small towns and around pulp mills and min- ing camps do not go in more for gogts‘.

Supposing the animal be 2 or 3 years old when acquired, milking per- iod to extend for another 6 or 7 years, it would cost a. lot more than $30 to buy that amount of milk for that, time. This is of course not. a farmers’ proposition as goats are kept for milk onlyhnnt for beef 61' making butter on other byproducts. As for feeding during winter, it takes 600 lbs. of alsike at $5 and 50 lbs bran $1, total $6.00. But there are always a, female kid or two which sells for $10 after being weaned.
