Develop Drainage Area Back of Dam is 9,000 Square Miles. Other Figures Showing Extent of Work. Among those taking in the excursion to the Abitibi Canyon on October 10th when the members of the Cochrane District Teachers‘ Institute were the guests of the Dominion Construction Company, was the South Porcupine reâ€" presentative of The Advance, Mrs. F. J. Hamilton, who has sent the followâ€" ing interesting and informative acâ€" count of the trip:â€" South Porcupine, Oct. 20th, 1930. Special to The Advance. Those from here who enjoyed the trip to Abitibi Canyon on Friday last are loud in their praises of the hospiâ€" tality and courtesies shown by the conâ€" struction companies there. A special train left Cochrane at 8 a.m., reaching a point above the Canyon about 11 am. The party of nearly two hundred walked down the extra mile of deâ€" cline to the camp and were met by guides appointed to take them to the various points of interest on the west side of the Canyon. The sound of the hammer heard everywhere. . Several tents still house some of the men but soon all are expected to be in proper abode for the winter. Comfortable looking residences are being built for the married men. The excavation work is already started for the school. At twelve the teachers and other visitors were guests of the company at. one of the best camp meals it was ever. our pleasure to taste, and we have eaten many. Guides again took the various parties to different points of the workâ€" ings, the chief interest seeming to cenâ€" tre around the point where the dam is to be constructed. Jokes, repartee, questions, made the trip jolly affair. Climbing down a narrow ladder over the edge of the rock we heard one admonishing "Don‘t laugh, there‘s not room for a giggle here." Quickly came back the response, "But‘s there‘s sure plenty of wiggle." Those who attemptâ€" ed the climb to the pinnacle of the hill across the cabled bridge and 385 above the river were rewarded by a view they will never forgetâ€"the beautiful colourâ€" ings of the country for miles around, the busy hive of industry below. Among the facts we gleaned of this great enterprise were the following in regard to the Abitibi Canyon hydro electric development: The owners are the Ontario Power Service Corporation Limited. The general contractors are the Dominion Construction Company Ltd., and the location is on the Abitibi river, 70 miles north of Cochrane by the T. N. O. Railway. The installed horse power will be five 65,000 h.p. turbines, that is 325,000 An.p. The drainage area back of the dam will 9,000 square miles. The concrete section of the dam will be about 1,010 feet long and the maxiâ€" mum height in the gorge about 250 feet. At this point the base of the dam will be about 200 feet in width .On the east end of the dam there will be proâ€" vided six 50 feet by 30 feet stoney reâ€" gulating gates for taking care of flood flows in the river. These six gates will pass approximately 200,000 c.f. A high water channel will be excavated in the east side of the gorge from the back of the stoney gates by the pool at the head of Eleanor Rapids. On the west side of this channel a concrete wall will be constructed for the entire length to prevent water discharges through the gates overflowing into the gorge below the dam. On both ends of the conâ€" crete dam there will be earth embankâ€" ment dams. The power house will be located in the gorge just below and adjoining the dam. In the power house will be inâ€" stalled the five turbines (65,000 h.p.) directly connected to the electrical generators. For easy excess to the power house there will be installed from the top of the dam two electric elevators, one for passengers and one for freight. To utilize the drop in the gorge from the power house site to the foot of the Canyon, a tail race will be excavated in the river bottom. The excavation will be in the neighbourhood of 135,000 cubic yards of rock. Two â€" doubleâ€"circuit, steelâ€"towered transmission lines will be constructed from the plant to Hunta, a distance of some 60 odd miles. The transmitting voltage will be 132,000 volts. At Hunta eventually 100,000 h.p. will go to the Hydro Electric Power Company and will be transmitted by them to Sudâ€" bury for distribution. The balance of the power will go to Iroquois Falls and Smooth Rock Falls and be consumed by the Abitibi Fower and Paper Comâ€" pany Limited, at these points. Dewatering the river is to be done to build the dam and power house. Two 28 feet, finished inside diameter tunâ€" nels will be driven on the present west side of the gorge. The filoor of these two will be a little below the present water level. *In order to speed up the driving of the tunnel a shaft is being sunk at about the midway point. When the shaft has reached the tunnel levels, a drift will be run across the both tunnels. This will allow working on four faces for each. The bulk of the excavation from the tunnel will be hoisted through the shaft. When the tunnels have been driven, concrete plugs will be placed in the cross drift tunnel: then the shaft will be carried lower to the level of the power house rock elevation and drifted through to the river for hoisting the rock front the power house and dam. Before this is done coffer dams will first be placed in the river just below the south portals of the unwatering tunnels and one just be 325,000 h.p. Developed. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO fANNUM REPORT OF HOWEY CONSIDERED FAVOURARLE Costs Reduced. Grade; Show Gradual Increase with MHigher Tonnage, According to Annual Report and Interim Report. There being so many here interested in the Red Lake area in one way or anâ€" other, and the success of the Howey Gold Mines peing of such importance to the whole attitude assumed towards the whole Red Lake country, there is very naturally much attention given by readers of The Advance to all parâ€" ticulars in reference to the Howey mine. The progress of the Howey will mean the progress of the whole Red Lake area as it is the one producing mine in that country toâ€"day. "Net profits to date have been small, but show gradual increase, with inâ€" creased tonnage," states H. G. Young, manager, in the annual report for the year 1929 and summary of operations to Aug. 31, 1930, of the Howey Gold Mines Limited. "Grade of ore has been fairly well established. Operatâ€" ing costs before ‘depreciation and taxation,‘ considering our location, have been favourable. Ore reserves are splendid and adequate. With these factors determined and sound, it is established that net profits will be satisfactory and in proportion to the volume of ore treated." A careful consideration of the reâ€" ports of Mine Manager Young and the Huronian Mining and Finance Comâ€" pany, according to the President, R. T. Birks, discloses the following salient facts:. (1) A plant and equirtnent have been carefully planned with a view to economic and efficient operaticas. (2) While the bullion recovered has almost met the operating expenses, the margin of profit must be secured, either by increased returns, as confiâ€" dently anticipated by Mr. Young, or by handâ€"sorting, as advocated by the consultants. (3) Both reports are unâ€" animous that there are excellent chances of increasing the ore reserves laterally and below the 1,000â€"foot level." Mr. Birks points out that, but for the repeated financial support furnishâ€" ed by the Viceâ€"President, W. S. Cherry, and his associates, the mine would now be closed down. He states that the present holders of the loan are preâ€" pared to postpone payment until such time as the mine reaches the stage where its earning capacity is definitely established. This should be known before the end of the present calendar year, and it is proposed to call a shareâ€" holders‘ meeting at that time, when detailed financial programme will 6 submitted for consideration. The mill started production on Apri 2, and for the four months of producâ€" tion ending the fiscal year, there was total ore production valued at $164,341. Against this all expenditures for the same period amounted to $184.927, leaving an operating loss for the four months (subject to depreciation on buildings, machinery, equipment, etc.) of $20,586. Mine Manager H. G. Young, in his detailed report, states gross values basâ€" ed on bullion recovery plus values held up in solution and ore in treatment gave an average value of millheads for 56,529 tons treated of $4.43 per ton. In this tonnage were 6,088 tons of dump ore and 4,000 tons development ore. After deducting the values of these, the 46,441 tons treated from stopes give an average gold content of $4.173 per ton. Operating costs per ton have dropped in proportion to tonnage increase and in August were $3.24. The average grade of ore hoisted from above the 500â€"level was $3.99 per ton and from below that level $4.88 per ton. To date the ore from the sill and its development has constitutâ€" ed 85 per cent. of mill feed, and the length of silling out accomplished reâ€" presents 50 per cent. of the developed ore of the mine. The average width of the sill is 35.6 feet, which is about 18 feet wider than development indiâ€" cated. The extra has averaged $3 per ton, which is too low, and it is admitâ€" ted that sill development has been carâ€" ried tco wide, with consequently toc much Gdilution. This is being correctâ€" above the north portals. The upper coffer will turn the water through the tunnels and the lower will permit the area between the two coffer dams to be pumped out, so that the power house and dam can be constructed. After this construction, the two tunâ€" nels will be closed off by large steel gates and the water then will be turnâ€" ed through the stoney sluice gates and the high water channel. When this has been done a coffer dam will be built in the river at the foot of the gorge and then the balance of the tail race rock excavation will be taken out. The crusher plant, sand storage and concrete plant will be located at west end of the big railway cut. A railway spur takes off about 1,000 feet back from the west end of the big cut and runs to the rim of the Canyon on a 5 p.c. grade. This track will be used for construction purposes and will also later form part of the permanent layâ€" out. For construction purposes a double steel track bridge will be erected across the Canyon, just below the dam. This bridge will be used as a means to get the construction plant across the river, handling rock excavation sides of the gorge and placing the concrete. The base of rail of the bridge will be about the top of the dam level. For construction power, temporary transmission line has been built from Island Falls to the job, capable of deâ€" livering 5,000 electrical h.p. starting shrinkage stopes above Haileybury Plans for New Tourist Camp There The Haileyburian last week says:â€" "Haileybury‘s new tourist camp will be completed and ready for the traffic next summer, according to Councillor A. J. Carson, who for the past month or two has been working on the proâ€" ject. He has now reached the stage where a plan of the location has been prepared and, as the area at the north side of Browning Strret, east of Ferguâ€" son avenue has been cleared of nearly all the material and machines formerly stored there, some work on the preparâ€" ation of the ground will be done this fall. Mr. Carson‘s plan shows a row of small cabins at the north side of the area, with provision for quite a number of tents. There will be a good sized community kitchen located in the cenâ€" tre, with lavatories and other necessary adjuncts of camp placed in suitable locations. The plot of ground to be devoted to the purpose at the start has a frontage of about 400 feet and is 130 feet in depth. In conjunction with the establishment of the tourist camp imâ€" provements are being made to the piece of beach at the north of the wharf. Here the large stones and driftwood are being removed and it is the intenâ€" tion to extend this beyond the pumping station as well, where it will be immeâ€" diately to the east of the camp ground. Large quantities of gravel will be reâ€" quired for this latter place, Mr. Carson says, but the whole project is to be carried out. Last week Mr. Carson made a tour through Southern Ontario l during which he visited a large number |Of tourist camps, on a search for the most suitable type of cabin. He has secured specifications of one type which can be erected reasonably ,will look neat and pleasing and will be practiâ€" cally fire proof, as very little wood is used in the construction. The whole project is one that should be easily carried out and should prove of great benefit in attracting the tourist trade. The improvements to the beach alone will be something well worth while for the people of Haileybury, as well as for summer visitors and the scheme is one that will have the support of the citi â€"zens in general." progum smm m e ts ce e e e 100 ..

It is anticiâ€" pated grade will improve in proptortion as mill feed is derived from these shrinkage stopes instead of from sill development, as to date. In ore reserves he reprorts positive re amounting to 1,125,000 tons and probable ore 375,000 tons, or a total of 1,500,000 tons. Probable ore does not Anclude tonnage below 1,000 feet. Mr. Young gives a detailed stateâ€" ment of cost of mill and development work, transmission line, and states available power is adequate to handle 1ill expansion to 1,000 tons a day. "‘he plant is so designed and constructâ€" d that its expansion to double capaâ€" rity, or 1,000 tons a day, can be carried out for $75,000, he points out. In the report of the Huronian Minâ€" ing and Finance Company it is stated that: "During the five months ending Aug. 31 the tonnage milled amounted to 56,529 tons, which yielded $4.177 gold per ton by mint returns and to which, adding the tailings loss of $0.226 per ton, showed a total gold content of $4.403 per ton. There was also recovâ€" ered 2.66 cents silver value per ton. This tonnage included 6.302 tons of ore from the dump mined last year, the value of which is estimated at someâ€" where $3.50 per ton. The actual ores mined during the first five months of production thus total 50,227 tons of a gold value of about $4.52 per ton averâ€" age. During the last three months. June, July and August, the tonnage produced from the mine was 11,199. 11,529 and 12,705 tons, respectively, toâ€" gether averaging $4.37 gold value per ton." "It is difficult to assess true costs during the early months of operating a property with new equirinent both in mine and mill, but no profits have so far been made," continues the Hurâ€" onian Mining Company‘s report. "It is also difficult to forecast future operatâ€" ing costs, and the best chance of proâ€" ducing a favourable balance now apâ€" pears to lie in the possibility of inâ€" creasing the grade of the ore by surâ€" face sorting. "The chances of the ore zone extendâ€" ing below the 1,000â€"foot horizon are exâ€" cellent. The general grade of ores found within the zone from the first to the 1,000â€"foot level, with regional exâ€" ceptions, varies little, and similar grades of ore may be expected below. If sortâ€" ing tests show that the ores can be profitably treated after sorting, develâ€" opment at depth, to at least 1,500 feet, should be started from the eastern exâ€" tension of the body from the 1,030â€"f00; level. "It is our opinion that the physical condition of the mining and milling equipment, which has a capacity of over 500 tons per day, is conducive to efficient and low cost operation." The balance sheet, dated July 31, 19830, shows current assets of $70,618. including cash, $12,149; bullion, $54.904, and accounts and interest receivable. $2,565. ~Current fliabilities include: Acâ€" counts, wages payable, $40,741; bank lcan (secured), $40,000, and loans payâ€" able and accrued interest, $475,584, a total of $556,324.

IMPERIAL BANK OF CANADA When you tell me that cream soups have a prominent place in your meal planning, I know that you have both a sense of artistry in your menus and a firm knowledge of food values. And, if you tell me that you 6 serve them, not before a heavy dinner, but as luncheon and supper dishes, my regard for your skill is still greater. For cream soups serve a twofold purâ€" poseâ€"they stimulate appetite, and they satisfy it. The warmth of the soup starts the meal off well; the milk which is its base is soothing. And the vegetable puree with which it is comâ€" bined adds to the rich food values preâ€" sent in the milk the important minerals which are necessary to a balanced diet. Cream soup is really a meal in itself. All the more important, then, that it should be a good soup. And, with the cooking knowledge at your disposal today, there is really no excuse for havâ€" ing anything but a marvelously deliâ€" cious cream soup. If you will follow one simple rule, I can promise that your cream SOUth will always be rich and creamy, body and exceptionally smooth, \el- vety texture. That rule is to make them with Carnation Milk.
