Improved performance is reported for the first five months of 1931. Producâ€" tion was $313,768 to yield an operating profit of $27,601. Broken ore reserves were increased during this period by 74,499 tons. By the end of May broken ore reserves reached 156,379 tons to be broken, in stopes and incompletely silled or 350000 tons, a total of 870,379 tons. K. T. Birks, President, states in part: "There is excellent reason to presume that there is sufficient reserve above the 1,000â€"foct level to supply the presâ€" ent mill for four years. We are further advised that iwhe profit to be gained from this tonnage will be materially inâ€" creased if we adopted an adequate unâ€" derground haulage system, sorted 150 tons of low grade per day in the sortâ€" ing plant and increased the mill to 750 tons daily. The planning and financing The report states that milling started April 1, and that by the end of 1930, 110,438 tons had been milled, from which the production of $460,428 was secured. Recovery averaged $4.17 per ton and cperating charges, including interest on loans, totalled $4.23 rti>r ton. | Howey to Consider Expanding of Mill Howey Gold Mines, Limited, has callâ€" | ; ed its annual meeting for July 13, and p is now forwarding to shareholders the | report for 1930 along with a suppleâ€" ; ; mentary statement covering the first + mentary statement five months of 1931 Improved Performance is Shown This Year at the Howey Gold Mine, Arnual Meeting to be Held July 13th.

He was placed under arrest by a police officer; the case was given trial; the Earl was convicted of operating a motor car while under the influence of intoxicants, was ordered to pay a heavy fine and costsâ€"and "had his driving liconse suspended for five years." It was his first offence. This is the Old Country and Old Country justice. A duke or a dus :man, it‘s all the same there, an earl or a costermonge;â€"Britain comes down hard on them all in cases of this kind. This will be the second new preant to be ~erected by Canadian Industries Limited since the beginning of 1931 and this programme of expansion is a conâ€" vincing indication of the faith placed by the company in the future of Canada. JUSTICE THE SAME FOR THE EARL AND COSTERMONGER Canadian qpatents for the maufacture of the moistureâ€"proof cellophane have been acquired and the plant will be fully equipped for the manufacture of plain transparent and moistureâ€"proof cellophane in an attractive variety of colours and finishes. The manufacture of cellorthans is a logical development for Canadian Inâ€" dustries Limited, as many of the raw materials required for the process are already being produced by its various plants and the additional output will rave the effect of strengthening the commpany‘s general position. Furtherâ€" more, it is a natural industry for Canâ€" ada inasmuch as pulp is the main inâ€" gredient and the great bulk of the other ingredients are manufactured in the Dominion. the plant is in operaticon it will employment to about 90 workers. A definite decisicn with regard to the site of the new plant has not yet been made, but it will probably be located in the Province of Quebsc. The initial cost is estimated at $1,500,000 and when Ancther product which is now being imported in large quantities will soon be manufactured in Canada. Canadian Industries Limited anncunce their deâ€" cision ‘to erect a pilant for the manuâ€" facture of~ cellophane, the Canadian consumption of which has reached a volume which permits its manufacture in Canada on the basis of current sellâ€" ing prices. This company confidently expect that sales volume will increase steadily, making it possible to give the comsumer the ‘benefit of lower manuâ€" facturing in accordance with their accepted policy of basing selling piices on "cost" regardless of the protective duty that may be in force at any parâ€" ticular date. The despatch from Monitreal this week telling of the proposal to establish in Canada a factory for the making of cellophane is as follows:â€" fits and a,dvangages of Timmins for the site of such an industry are being imâ€" pressed on the Canadian Industries, Limited, and if it is possible tCc secure this industry through efforts by the Timmins board of trade this will be done. so be a minor factor. The freight question is one of the chief drawbacks to securing new indugtries for this North Land, and in this case the objecâ€" tions do not appear to apply. This is a quesiion that the Timmins board of trade has taken up this week as scon as it was mentioned to that body. Preâ€" sident W. O. Langdon thought such an industry would find Timmins an ideal site, while the industry should prove of advantage to the town. The beneâ€" It will be noted in ths announcement from Montreal that definite decision as to the site of the plant has not been made yet. The Advance suggests that effort might be made to have this inâ€" dustry established at Timmins. The effort to secure this industry might no. stand much chance of success but it would be worth making. The main inâ€" gredient of cellophane is pulp and there is enough pulp in this immediate disâ€" trict to sup;ml‘y all the cellophane indusâ€" tries of the world. The cost of shipping the raw materials here would nct be serious and the freight on the finished material, which is very light, would alâ€" Announcement is made from Monâ€" treal that the Canadian Industries, Limited, will establish a plant for the manufacture of cellophane. This is the material that has beâ€" come so popular for wrapping candies and for other foodstuffs, displacing to large extent all other materials used for similar purposes. This product has been imported into Canada in large quantities and Canadian Industries Limited, following its usual policy of building up Canadian industries, is addâ€" ing this line to its ‘big list cf manufacâ€" tures. As most readers will know, Canâ€" adian Limited is the comâ€" pay with which Canadian Exposives Limited (CX.L.) and many cther imâ€" portant manufactures are merged. Why Not Have the New Plant at Timâ€" mins? _ Timmins Board of Trade Takes up the Question with the CLL. To Make Cellophane in New C.LL,. Plant THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO "There is a cycle of buying and emâ€" ployment which is more important now than the suprpiposed economic cycle of prosperity and recession. It is an exâ€" change of goods and services. This ‘cycle‘ simply needs a few more to give it a start. Those who change their manner of business thinking, who reâ€" jeo: the voice which advises them to keep their pockets closed, and join the industrious throng with their shoulders to the wheel, will help bring back a normal business condition." . ... We must stop advocating further reduction of prices, for that only leads to further reduction of wages. . . . We must revive that implied understanding between capital and labour whereby it was mutually assumed that high wages would return to industry in exchange for the enjcyment of a broader and betâ€" ter life.‘ Estevan Mercury:â€"As Ernie Botting remarks, "It isn‘t so much on account of the crops that we want rain as for the education of all the kids who have never even seen it." "‘We must stop advertising hard times. We must stop advertising unâ€" employment. We must stop advertisâ€" inz loss of jobs and lowering of wages. "That this cloud of gloom can be disâ€" Lislled is being proved by the more enâ€" terprising, who refuse ‘to accept the ‘businessâ€"isâ€"bad‘ excuse and go out afiter business, rather than wait for it to come to them. By advertising, pushing sales and giving the best of values and serâ€" vice, these business men persuade the less timid to buy, at the same time doâ€" ing their own share of buying, knowing that those from whom they buy will, in turn, buy from somecne else. "In connection with advertising, Giiâ€" bert T. Hodges, of the executive board of the New York Sun, declared ito the Advertising Federation of America the other day that one big step toward disâ€" pelling fear is ‘to stop negative and destructive advertising.‘ He continued: "The world has read, Wwritten and talked itself into a deeper depression than the mere oprration of ithe econoâ€" mic ‘cycle‘ warranted. This firm conâ€" viction that business is bad, Mr. Thorpe says, has sewed up pockets, pockets witk money in them, more tightly than a material, economic condition could sew them. "A refuses to buy Mr. Thorpe exâ€" plains, until B, C and D buy from him. B refuses to buy until A, C and D buy from him, and so on down the line. And each laments that ‘business is terâ€" rible!‘ It is a trite but always true exâ€" planation of th¢® supposedly ‘inevitable‘ cycle, a cycle that is no more inevitable than men choose to make it. ‘"Many reasons, from, faulty distribution and to the invasion of industry by women and the dumping of Russian wheat, have been cited to explain the soâ€"called depression. These factors, and perkhaps many others, have contributed ito development of a conâ€" diticn which Merle Thorpe, editor of Nation‘s Business, terms ‘a state of mind.‘ That eccnomic conditions in many lands are being aggravated by the preâ€" vailinz mental state of individual has been emphasized on numerous Occasions of late, and that the situation could ‘be vastly improved if people everywhere came to a realization that on their own efforts depends ‘the dispelling of much cf the glcom now existing. Dealing with the subject, the Christian Science Mcnitcr, of Boston, very aptly says:â€" Influence of the State of Mind on Depression lNoerh until this year. As a matter of fac:, there have been some mighty hot summers in this country, though in reâ€" fcent years the climate seems to have moderated. In proof of the fact that hot weather is a new thing to this section The Advance herewith reproâ€" duces a paragraph from the cclumns of this piiper ten years ago. The Advance of July 6th, 1921, says:â€"‘"The longâ€" ecntinued spell of hot, dry weather in this part of the North Land is provâ€" ing very trying to many. There have been a few cases of prostration by the unusual hseat, and many others have found the protracted heat wave a wearâ€" ing sort of affair. Oldâ€"timers in the Porcupine affirm that this is the worst hoi spell this country has suffered since settlement began. It is admitied that there may have been individual days in past years when the thermometer registered higher temperature than any of these hcs days, but there has never before been a spi>ll so long of intense, dry, heat. The Advance has been reâ€" peatedly requested to appesal to headâ€" quarters for rain or snow. Readers are assured that The Advance and all the clher religious people are doing their bect. The chief trouble is ithat the Government and a lot of the other farm folks have been so determined to the country dry. The North Land is always suffering through the shortâ€" sightedness of the South." szont hot weather in Timmins has caused ccnsiderable comment and even tcome of the oldâ€"timers here have been tempted to say, "This is the hottest it has ever been in this country." On Tuesday last when several were reportâ€" ed to have collapsed from the intense heat ithere were those who said that such prostrations from the heat had not occurred here before. In fact, visitors hers might be inclined to think that hot weather had been unknown in this It was Very Hot Here in Timmins Ten Years Ago Saturday, Aug. 8thâ€"Dome vs Lake Shore Mines (Foster Cup).
