The Northern News last week says:â€" *"*Funeral services were held here on 'Tuesday afternoon for Lincoln T. Henâ€" aderson, ac untant at the Lake Shore Mines, w ose sudden death last Sunâ€" day is mourned by a wide circle of friends. Mr. Henderson, a native of Bolton, Ont., was ill only a few days prior to his passing, and was at his desk as late as last Thursday. His death was caused by a brain tumor. The deâ€" ceased had been in the employ of the Lake Shore Mines for more than two years, coming here from Copper Cliff, Ont.. where he was employed by the International Nickel Company for several years. Prior to that he was in the employ of a bank in Timmins. He was married a little more than two years ago. He was a very fine type of young man and a valuable employee,‘ said George F. Doggett in a tribute to him. Mr. Henderson is survived by his wife, Hilda, and a fourâ€"monthsâ€"old son, Bobby, and also leaves to mourn his loss several sisters and brothers in Bolton. He was 32 years old. Reyv. Archie Gillies, pastor of the Trinity United church, officiated at the funeral rites in the church on Tuesday afterâ€" nooi:. where the body was conveyed prior ww placing it on the trainr for a final resiing place in the family vlot at Bolton. There was a profusion nf beautiful florsl offerings testifying to the esteem in which the late Mr. Henâ€" derson was hled. The pallbearers were H. W. Wright, F. Clarke, 1. MciIivor. P. Rliss, D. McDermott, A. E. Riddeil av\d¢ Wm. Johnston." a ‘"‘There are those who think that the mining industry of the province should advance more quickly," said Mr. Mcâ€" Crea. "But providence does not »erâ€" mit the uncovering of all the country‘s mineral riches in one generation." The champion of Ontario mining went on to say that he had an abounding and abiding faith in the future mineral deâ€" velopment of the country. Mr. McCrea referred to his contact with Thos. A. Edison, who had come to Sudbury years ago and had sought a nickel mine. The deposit now known as the Falconbridge had at one time been tested by Mr. Edison. When Mr. McCrea yvisited the aged inventor at East Orange, NJ., a few years ago, Mr. Edison asked: "Have you much nickel up there now?"" The Mines Minister replied: "We have enough for a iunâ€" dred years," and Mr. Edison observed, "You have enough for a thousand years. You will not live to see the many uses to which nickel will be put." Lincoln T. Henderson Passes at Kirkland Lake Mr. McCrea then went on to describe briefly the metallurgical processes inâ€" volved in the manufacture of nickel and copper and outlined the changes which had taken place in smelting and refining practice in recent years. He dealt with the silver processes and pointed out that as the high grade disâ€" appeared the metallurgists of the Coâ€" balt camp developed refinements which permitted the recovery of profit from very low grade ores, less than ten ounces to the ton in some cases. ‘Thns metallurgy of gold was also briefly dealt with. Striking Figures in Regarad to the Mines Mr. McCrea stated that, to the end| of 1932, the production of nickel and copper in Ontario had reached a valua-‘ tion of $473,741,000 and that $147,000,â€"| 000 odd had been paid in Silverâ€"cobalt production to the end of ‘ 1932 was valued at $281,000,000 and dividends amounted to $98,000,000. Gold outout had totalled $442,000,000 and dividends were $136,000,000 for the same period. | Prior to 1900 the province had not produced $500,000 in gold in any year. Production of this metal from 1866 to 1891 in Ontario had only been $190,258 and from 1892 to 1909, The rapid growth of the industry had dated from the discovery of Porcupine. There were four milestones in the mineral development of the province, stated the Minister. The year 1883 had brought in the nickelâ€"copper disâ€" coveries of Sudbury. In 1903 ‘Cobalt‘s rich silver veins were found. In 1907 the Porcupine gold camp was open>d up and in 1911 Kirkland Lake gold veins had been discovered. Other deâ€" velopments since that year had materiâ€" ally added to gold production. Hon. Charles McCrea, Ontario Minisâ€" ter of Mines, speaking to a group of Canadian metallurgical engineers in Toronto recently, briefly outlined the metallurgical processes involved in the production of copper, nickel, gold and silvat. More impressively, he brought out a set of production and dividend figures which somewhat astonished his hearers, who were engineers interestâ€" ed in the metallurgy of steel. To the end of 1932 Ontario had proâ€" duced $1,196.000,000 in the metals namâ€" ed and dividends had amounted to $380,000,000. f Hion. Chas.

In all the discussions of economic, ‘eonditions and remedies for the recogâ€"| \nized ills of the world, there seems to! ‘ be a very general tendency to indulge ! in vague and visionary generalities. In! | fact one Northern newspaper recently ~suggested the idea that it rather pridâ€" i ed itself on being visionary, as if there| were some virtue in being impractical.l Amid many of these discussions it is pleasing to note a very thoughtful and| logical consideration of one of the types | | of remedies proposed by some. Many : have the idea that reduced production | lmight help conditions. The fallacy of this is very ably shown in the following !‘editorial in the current issue of The C.| | N. F. C. Review, "published monthly in j the interests of the employees of the Canada Northern Power Corporation."| This editorial is well worth careful! | reading. It is as follows:â€" Cobalt Lady Had Perfect Mand in Bridge Recently THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTMMINS. ONTARIO . _ "It is to be hoped that the policy of planned production will not be carried too far, for if things were so arranged that just sufficient to satisfy the exâ€" pected demand is planted and a sucâ€" cession of poor harvests affliicted the world an even more serious situation would arise." At a meeting held recently the shareâ€" holders of the Churchill Mining and Milling Company authorized directors of the West Shining Tree property to purchased and instal immediately a small mill, capacity to be determined by the directorate. It was stated that recent developments at the property warrant the move. "On the other hand, considering that the farmer has always had the reputaâ€" of being compelled to work from early morn till after dark, it may be that if he can earn the same money as a result of producing a smaller amount of farm produce, he may have sufficient time on his hands to induce him to adopt some«of the spending habits his urban cousins are credited or charged with being partial to. SMALL MILL PLANNED NOW FOR WEST SHINING TREE "It may be that the whole of the scheme has not been explained and that some other task is to be arranged for the man who will be released from the task of producing the goods to be eliminated, but if that is the case, it would appear that there are plenty of men available for any work which can be foreseen. "One thing however seems clear, which is that refraining from producâ€" ing any commodity, whether it be wheat or coal or cotton, is not likely to proâ€" vide more employment. "Probabilities all lie in the opposite direction. Not only will the farmer have the time on his hands, which it weuld haveé taken to plow the land, sow the seed, reap the crop and thresh the grain, but the railways will be deprived of the job of transporting it to market. "No doubt deep thought has been given to the subject, for it is incredible that men of affairs would deliberately embark upon so drastic a programm: unless they had explored all avenues to which such a course is likely to lead. "Similar measures are to be taken with other commodities thus eliminatâ€" ing the surplus which has been blamed for so many of the economic ills of the world. "In the United tates a definite goal has been set in connection with the wheat problem. According to theIatest information on the subject the Departâ€" ment of Agriculture has made plans whereby farmers are to agree to cut down acreage devoted to wheat by fifâ€" teen percent. in compensation for which they are to receive a bonus of 28 cents per bushel on the grain they do raise. "This, it is contemplated, will raise the price of wheat. "It is becoming increasingly difficult to see the logic of the argument that the best way to restore normal conâ€" ditions is to curtail production. At district court in Haileybury last week, J. T. Chenier, formerly in the hay, four and feed bus:mess in Timâ€" mins, was ordered by Judge Hartman to pay $167.50 for hay purchased some time ago from Emile Martel, Hilliard township. The plaintiff in the case held that the hay was bought on the understanding that the hay was not of the best quality and that he would have to pay for it after it had been pressed. "Readers of the daily papers are conâ€" tinually being confronted by statements to the effect that plans for the reducâ€" tion of output of basic commodities are being formulated, FPORMER TIMMINS DEALER ORDERED TO PAY FOR HAY Thoughtful Article on Curtailing Production With all the talk about lack of work there seems to be difficulty in this North in getting men for some lines. One of these lines is bush work. It is not on account of the wages either in some oi the cases, for the pay offered is the same as obtained in recent more prosâ€" perous years. Many towns in the North ~have trun against this difficulty of havâ€" ing men on reliefâ€"â€"men who are good bushmenâ€"but finding diffculty to supâ€" ply the recent calls for men to work in the bush. Sudbury has had discouragâ€" ing experience along this line. Referâ€" ence was made some weeks ago in The Advance to the fact that only a very small propcrtion of the bushmen in that city would accept work, preferring apparently the ease and comfort of reâ€" lief, and this despite the fact that the city claims to be about at the end of its resources so far as getting further money for relief is concerned. At Timâ€" mins there has been some of the same dqifficulty, men not going to work even after being outfitted by the town and after admitting that the pay was all right. In North Bay last week there was a rush order for twentyâ€"five pulpâ€" wood cutters. Despite the most earnest efforts the Government Employment Bureau could only induce twelve men to accept the chance for work, though there are many times that number of bushmen cut of work and on relief in North Bay. It is said that the Employâ€" ment Bureau at North Bay has orders for between 200 and 300 bushmen. For the moment the chances of securing them seems limited. The lumber comâ€" panies insist upon skilled and experiâ€" ericed men who are sufficiently clothed for the work. Also they do not want men under 24 years of age. Apart from these restrictions,'however, the jobs are open and there would appear to be lots of idle men to meet the demand if they were only ready to accept work when offered. | Try The Advance Want Advertisements The Blue Quartd is now owned and operated by the Amailgamated Goldfields This company has been getting the property in shape for some time past.
