Phone 3 Royal Bank Building, TORONTO , Ont. _ Winnipeg _ Saskatoon â€" Calgary YVictoria â€" Yancouver Timmins Canada Lumberman:â€" Many a perâ€" son has joined the unemployed beâ€" cause his boss wore rubber heels. Cobalt has taken over the Mines hosrital in that town and the instituâ€" tion will now be known as the Cobalt Municipal hospital. One of the first acticns of the town council of Cobalt after taking over the hospital manageâ€" ment was to make reductions in the salaries of the nurses. Effective July 1s;, the matron will be paid $125.00 per month, instead of $160.00 as at present; the operation nurse will receive $90.00 instead of the present $100.00 per month; and the third nurse on the staff is to be riaid $70.00 per month instead of $80.00 as has been received to date. Salaries paid the nurses are exclusive of board and room which are provided at the hospital. The figures now paid for the nurses at Cobalt seem to be someâ€" what below those received by nurses in general. The regular rate for nurses in Timmins, for instance, is $6.00 per day with board, but not room. This would be about equivalent to the former rate at Cobalt for the matron there. These have now been sot at rest by a statement from Geo. W. Allan, K.C., chairman of the Canadian committee of the Hudson‘s Bay Compiuiny, who states that no such move is contemâ€" plated, and that no such negotiations have been in progress. He further points out that the control of the stores has rested entirely with the Canadian committee. According to despatches from Winniâ€" peg during recent weeks there have been a number of rumours in circulaâ€" tion to the effec: that the Hudson‘s Bay Co. has been in negotiation with difâ€" ferent interests for the sale of its stores at Winnipeg, Calgary and Vancouver. COBALT CUTS SALARIES O0F NURSES AT HOSPITAL "Again referring to labour conditions along the T. N. O. Mr. Lee said that n this section of Northern Ontario there would be no unemployment exâ€" cept for the floating population that is crowding in from other sections. There is enough work up north to take care of the resident population." sSAYSs HUDSON BAY STORES ARE NOT TO BE DISPOSED OF The North Bay Nugget interviewed Chairman Lee on his return from the trip north, and The Nugget concludes report of the interview with the folâ€" lowing two paragraphs:â€" "Asked with reference to the buildâ€" ing of the big dam on the Abitibi river at the Canycn, Mr. Lee said that the contractors there were well up to schedule and that so far as he knew there were no serious difficulties enâ€" countered. rails on the northern section of the T. N. O. extension was to be resumed this week, starting on Wednesday. Mr. Lee is further quoted as saying that all the work on the extension in the North is well up to schedule and will be comâ€" pleted, according to present outlook and circumstances, well within the time limited. Mr. Lee, the chairman of the T. N. O. ‘tailway Commission, reâ€" turned on Friday last from the latest trip he has made to the section north of Cochrane, and he reported everyâ€" thing as going along very satisfactorily. The bridge over the Moose River that will carry the traffic to and from Moose Factory on the northern extension of the T. N. 0. from Cochrane to James Bay, is now complete. This was one of the statements made by Geo. W. Lee last week on his return from a visit to the end of steel. Another statement made by the chairman of the T. N. O. Commission was that the laying of Laying of Steel on Other Side of the Bridge was Taken up Again This Week. Work on Dam at Abiâ€" tibi Canyon Going Along Well, Bridge Over Moose River is Completed THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Detroit Free Press:â€"A British newsâ€" paper says that Bernard Shaw claims he will live and die a communist. This is carrying the abuse of communism to quite a degree. Toronto Mail and Empire:â€" That the Ku Klux Klan is a national menâ€" ace and that the failure to build a new railway station immediately at Riviere du Loup is a national disgrace, are the two strongest convictions held by Jean Francois Pouliot, M.

Hay, when put int> the barn should not be dry as it should contain just enosugh moisture to allow it to settle compactly when trodden down. About a gallon of salt per ton spread over the mow will pievent fermentation, check the growth of molds, and will also renâ€" der it more palatable., it was found at the Dominion Experiâ€" mental Station, Kapuskasing, Ontario, that the following method is very satâ€" isfactory: The hay should be mown as soon as the dew is off in the morning, allowed to lie in the swath until dry on the surface, then turned, if heavy, by hand or by hay tedder or raked into loose windâ€"rows. Before the dew falls, it is bunched into wellâ€"made cocks and, if sufficiently cured so that i; will not mold, is allowed to remain until it has passed through a sweating plsocess. The cocks should be made in such a way that they will shed out water well. After sweaing, it is usually necessary to open the cocks carefully and in large flakes to avoid shattering the leaves. When the hay is green or damp with rain when cocked, it may be necessary to open the cocks the next morning, reâ€" cocking before nightfall if still not dry encugh. By this system the hay is exâ€" posed but little to the bleaching action of the sun and dew. Wiâ€"h the atmospheric conditions genâ€" erally prevailing in Northern Ontario, In producing hay, quality is the pirime cbject and this is largely determined by th2> methods of curing. The objecâ€" tives sought are brighs green colour, good aroma, retention of the leaves and other fine parts, and freedom from dust and molds. This is better obtained by cocking the hay in order to retain t.he stems and leaves. Hay is one of the most important crops grown in Canada and is the third in value of the crops produced. Over a fiveâ€"year period 8,800,500 acres were harvested at a value of $168,601,280 compared to values of $435,869,040 for wheat and $169,433,000 for cats. A. Belzile, of the Dominion Experiâ€" mental Station, Kapuskasing, in an article written for the benefit of farmers and settlers in the North Land and sent to The Advance this week tells about curing hay in Northern Onâ€" tario. Mr. Belzile says:â€" Kapuskasing Experimental Station Tells of Best Plan for Hay Curing as Tested Out in Ncrthern Onâ€" tario. There is something about a beard that seems to lend dignity to a man, and to clothe his speech with a sense of pswer and wisdom thal; the utterâ€" ances of but very few bareâ€"faced men can equal. But they are going to overdo it, see if they don‘t. Whiskers may not have been sanitary, but certainly they could not have looked or tasted any worse or even have been in more urgent need of hsusecleaning than the average feminâ€" ine face of today. Man is going to be forced back under whiskers in selfâ€"deâ€" fence. Just wait! Methods of Curing Hay in North Land Even then the women were not satâ€" isfied. Perhaps the new order of fazces didn‘t make a clear enough distinction between the sexes to suit them, or perâ€" haps they suffered by comparison. At any rate, it was then they started something. First it was a little powder or a little paint; then it was a lot of powder and a lot of paint, whole gobs of it, and ali of brilliant hue. But the women didn‘t like the whisâ€" kers. They didn‘t like the look of them, nor the taste of them, and they couldâ€" not be housecleaned with any degree of satisfad‘:ion. They decreed that whisâ€" kers must go, and they did go, all of them. No wonder men wore them and were satisfied with them. In fact, we beâ€" lieve they would be wearing them still and still be satisfied with them, if it had not been for Eve. And a beard was a useful as well as an ornamental appendage in the old days. They held the cooling breezes in summer and acted as chest protectors in winter. Andg they were economical. Untold sums were saved by ‘the lack of need to purchase collars, ties and table napkins, the beard doing duty for all thres. Perhaps we were born to think that way. At any rate, the men of Biblical times, the fathers of this country and the byâ€"gone s:atesmen of cther counâ€" tries were men who wore beards. A beard was the dividing line between vouth and manhood.

Mr. Burns, who is a clerk at the Empire hotel, North Bay, has not yet decided what he will do with the money, but may build a hocâ€" key arena." NORTH BAY MAN IS ONE OF THE SWEEPSTAKES WINNERS A method of artificial respiration has already been dealt with and nexi week we will deal with various methods usâ€" ed in reseue work. One often hears i; said that a drownâ€" ing person must rise to the surface three times before finally sinking to the !bottom. This is incorrect. It depends on the circumstances whether the vicâ€" tim come to the surface at all after once going down. Ordinarily a drownâ€" ing person struggles until insensibility occurs, when the body sinks on acâ€" count of the loss of air and the filling of the stomach with water. In atâ€" tempting a rescue, therefore, it is most important to act promptly or the vicâ€" tim may sink before you can reach him. l If there are floating logs in the waâ€" ter where the accident occurs good use can often be made of these in helping oneself or another person to shore. Round logs have a tendency to roll in the water if shey are grasped only on one side, so a good phan is for the resâ€" cuer to keep on Lhecother side of the log from the person whom he is helping, and if possible, to grasp the latter‘s hand over the top of the log. use capsized; that is to say, the whole coil is turned over with the running part underneath. When throwing the line, the rope should be thrown over the person to be rescued, and if any hard object is attached to the end care must be exercised that the person in the water is not hit. If the shore end of the line is not fastened to a post or other object, it is better to tie it around your wriss or body to guard against the possibility of its sliprling away from you. If there is a current at the point where the rescue is being attempted, throw the line above the person, allowâ€" ing it to floa: down to him. Hmts to Boy Scouts _ in Water Accidents In many cases, where someone has fallen into the water, a life preserver or line may be used to advantage withâ€" out endangering others‘ lives and it is a wise precaution to have a life rreservâ€" er and rope available for instant use in emergencies in camps and other loâ€" calities where water accidents are liable to happen. If there is no line at hand and you are yourself unable to swim you may at least be able to throw something to the drowning person to support himself on until further aid is procured. Life lines should be properly cared for, as often valuable time is lost through line being badly coiled, or to> tightly tied. Canoes and light boats are not inâ€" tended for heavy seas. Be careful not to change seats except in a wide and steady boat. Above all, do not make an idiot of yourself by rocking the boat. The line should be coiled, with one coil on top of the other and in case of might not come amiss. Drowning is said to be the commonâ€" est single cause of accidental death. It is, therefore, most important that every Scout should become a good swimmer and also learn how to save others from drowning. The swimming season is not far off, At least we hope not, so a few hints on water accidents and their prevention might not come amiss. On Wedriesday, May the 27th, the Wolves and Chickadees were tied and last week was the deciding week. The Wolf patrol had an excellent turnout but the Chickadees were rather scarce, the result being a win for the Wolves by a margin of six points. During this nex; two months‘ competition the four patrols will compete. (By the Scoutmaster). Immediately after roll call and inâ€" spection the patrol leaders took charge of their patrols and proceeded with a half hour‘s ins:ruction in tenderfoot work, ambulance, signalling and knotâ€" ting. The patroels are getting along nicely in this work which usually takes up! half an hour each Wednesday.
