PRODUCTION AT THE DOME FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST ‘"Nobody defends extravagance in the operation of this or any other branch of the public administration. The principles of efficient economy should be applied as rigidly in public busiâ€" ness as in private and there can be rno toleration of waste, of carelessness. But it will be unforunate, and distinctâ€" ly unfair, if the impression is perimitâ€" ted to develop that the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario is nothing but a political railroad of no real value to the province and costing the taxpayers large sums of money. As The Journal pointed out the other dayâ€"and on the indisputable facts presented by Mr. Longmoreâ€"the building of this line has justified itself a hundredfold, and its importance in the economic and social history of Ontario hardly coula be overâ€"emphasized." "Since 1904, added Mr. Longmore, gold and silver mines in the T. N.

IMMEDIATE SET TLEMENT contains the fAinest Cigarâ€" ette Papers made, prevents waste, Timmins 144 Toronto newspapers were recently full of references to the attitude adoptâ€" ed by Rev. Dr. Shields to the new beverage rooms in Ontario. Rev. D. Shields seldom leaves anyone in doubt as to his meaning, and in this beverâ€" age room case he has been very emâ€" phatic, indeed. It is no answer to his complaint to call him a "temperance crank," ‘"offensive" or what not. Rev. Dr. Shields can certainly not be classâ€" ed as a "temperance crank" whatever else might be suggested against him. He has certainly not been prominent, hitherto, in regard to the liquor quesâ€" tion. The fact that he has been so active in this matter recently would suggest that his complaints might well be considered at least. There are many who think with Dr. Shields that the way the beverage room idea is working out is bad for the youth of the country, for many of the older ones and for the country in general. That it is not good for business in general the way it is working out at present seems to go without saying. It is open to question whether the beer parlours could be operated with any particrvlar advantage to the country. There are a few of the present beverage rooms that are conducted with such, respect for the spirit as well as the letter of the law that they may be said to apâ€" pear of little harm. On the other hand too many of these places are operated by people who have no reâ€" gard for what is fair and decent. A drunken man can purchase as much more liquor as he can pay for. Minâ€" ors will be served liquor if they have the money. Customers will be encourâ€" aged so long as their money is being spent. This attitude, of course, makes for druykennes and other abuses. The Brampton Conservator in an editorial note quotes Rev. 1. G. Bowles, a former pastor of the district, as roundly conâ€" demning the beverage rooms as at present conducted. Writing to The Globe Rev. Mr. Bowles is quoted as saying:â€"*"I told my congregation yesâ€" terday I thought the immoral condiâ€" tions today due to drinking are the worst we have had in forty years. I think I am easily within the truth when I say that nothing that has come to us in the past generation to demorâ€" alize the young has been equal to the evils of the beverage rooms of today," High River Times:â€"A quiet, serious sensible guest ruins a modern party.

Drill Hole Results To date work has been mainly conâ€" centrated on No. 1 zone. A series o% six shallow holes was drilled at depths from 58 to 87 feet, which Tteturned values of .446 ounces over an average of 5.08 feet. Four deeper holes were then put down from 93 to 116 feet to return an average of .368 ounces over three feet. Two deep holes were put down, one at 245 feet cutting 8.2 feet of .44 ounce ore, and another at 225 feet, cutting 2.5 feet of .46 ounce ore. Perhaps one of the most important drill showings was in No. 15 hole, which at a depth of 325 feet ran .34 ounce over five feet nine inches. Results at Temagami from Diamond Drills There are three showings on the Temagami property that are considerâ€" ed of primary importance, all of which have been worked in the past, and which showed good gold value. No. 1 showing is located at the east end of Arsenic Lake, No. 2 near the southeast end of the lake, and No. 3 about 1,500 feet south of No. 1. No. 3 is considered to be a southward extension of No. 1 showing, and has greater mineralizaâ€" tion than No. 1 with arsenoâ€"pyrite the chief material. The Manitoba and Eastern property is situated in Strathy townshin, about two miles north of Temnagami station, on the Ferguson Highway. The holdâ€" ings consist of mining leases and 18 claims. Highly favourable developments are being met with in operations at the Temagami property of the Manitoba and Eastern Mines Limited, accordâ€" ing to latest reports. Development is sponsored by Bobjo Mines Limited, which company it is understood is well ahead of share option agreements.

He has the mounted head of the big feliow, fifteen and a half pounds is where the scale stopped when they plunked him on, for proof. You can see where he was hookedâ€"just on the side of the mouth where anything but the Indian‘s method of "stroke landâ€" ing" might have jerked the hook out and freed the pike. Mr. Nixon, in announcing his intenâ€" tion in this regard, submitteqg the view that the probition of the use of dogs in deerâ€"hunting is injurious to the deer population. The reason for it, he said, is that the buck is more canny than the doe, and will remain securely in hiding when mere man with his gun passes by. The doe, however, invariâ€" ably becomes frightened and dashes inâ€" to the open, where she is shot. With the dogs stalking the deer quarry, he said, the bucks and does are chased out into the open and the hunter can pick out the males for their shot. Owing to the fact that the Legislature does no sit until late in winter or spring the proposed new law will»not be effective this hunting season. The earliest it can become operative is 1935." Oh.

F. M. Tyrrell, superinâ€" Next year will see the restoration of the right to use dogs in hunting deer, if the signs are read aright. The Onâ€" tario egislation passed a law forbidâ€" ding the use of dogs for deer hunting. The purpose of this was to conserve the game of the country. It was held that the use of dogs was not only unâ€" sportsmanlike but that it was prejuâ€" dicial to the life of game in th‘is counâ€" try. This is the opinion of the majorâ€" ity of sports in the North, if the genâ€" eral opinion may be gauged by the expressions made by so many in reâ€" ference to the matter. So far as The Advance has learned there does not seem to be a hunter of any standing who does not upholq the last governâ€" meont in passing a law forbidding the use of dogs in deerâ€"hunting. Hon. Harry Nixon led the battle last session in the Legislation to have the ban on dogs removed, but he was unsuccessful.
