Lewmar bay THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 30, 1929 Ontario Faced With Problem Of Increasing Toronto, ¥an. 30.--The Provincial Hyurv Commission had been doing everything in its power to obtain ad- ditional sources of supply, asserted F, A. Gaby, chief engineer of the mmission, in a speech to the repre- tatives of the Ontario Municipal trical Association and the Asso- tion of Municipal Electrical Utili- ties, at their convention luncheon re- cently, and he stated that practically all the waters yet available are either international or inter-provincial, He pointed out that the question as to the ownership of certain waters was before the courts, "and we trust," he remarked, "in the near future we will have some decision so that we can go on with the development of our own waters." In 1926 the Commission was for- tunate enough--and he sald that ad- vigedly--to enter into a contract with the Gatineau Power Company, and if this had not been accomplished, there would have been a considerable shortage. At a reasonable price a contract for 260,000 horsepower had been arranged." To meet future demands, Mr. Gaby intimated that the Commission was constructing between Pelham and St, Thomas, 115 miles, a 110,000 volt line at a 'cost of $2,000,000. Some 30 or 35 miles had been constructed al- ready, and it was hoped by the early summer that the line to St. Thomas would be completed. By reducing losses, about 30,000 additional horse- power would be available to the municipalities, so that it was an eco- nomic proposition to have this new transmission line. The Commission's contracts would not be more than available to supply the municipalities in the Niagara district beyond 1931, 80 supplies from other sources must be obtained. A Successful Year Mr. Gaby declared that 1928 had been one of the most successful years in the history of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission, The load had increased by approximately 120,000 horsepower over the previous year. In January, 1929, the peaks were still going up. After stating that the Commission had always solicited and endeavored to obtain a market for surplus or off-peak power that it might, have available, the speaker re- peated the figures he gave at the din- rier the previous evening, showing the extent of the Hydro undertak- ing, He remarked that the property was in an excellent position with ap- proximately $74,000,000 in reserves. That, he said, was being improved at | the rate of $10,000,000 to $11,000,000 | per annum, and one could appreciate | that it would not be many years be- fore these properties would be re- TIME TABLES n C.P.R.

Going Power Supply deemed so far as the present invest ment was concerned. But, of course, he added, they were continuing to assume liabilities in view of increas- ing demands. During 1928, 26 townships entered into contracts with the Commission, and that gave some evidence of the interest the rural taking in the distribution of electri- cal energy in their communities. In that year some 929 miles of rural lines were constructed at the expen- diture of something like $2,000,000, Beauharnois Permit T. L. Church, M.P, who was in- troduced by C. A. Maguire as' "one of the old pioneers IM the hydro movement," referred to the Beauhar- nois power project and declared that a permit, would be granted the com- pany on Saturday. "These people are to be given the over the head of the courts, though the matter is sub-judice," he assert- ed, "This fight is .only starting, not only In Ontario but in other parts of the country. There is going to be a great fight in Ottawa on the ques- tion of no surrender to giving away these magnificent waters on the St. Lawrence. ~ If this Beauharnols scheme goes through there will be no St. Lawrence waterway." Ex- Mayor Church stated that hydro did not have very many friends on exhér gide. of the House at Ottawa. On the motion of Fred Newman, Picton, the association expressed "ap- preciation of the foresight and pro- gress of the Ontario Hydro-Electrie Power Commission under the capable chairmanship of C. A. Magrath." At the morning session of the con- vention Hon. I. B. Lucas outlined the proposed scheme of pensions for em- ployees of municipal Hydro-Electrie Commissions. Under the plan all em- ployees, including those who have been a long time in the service of the commissions, are given an equal opportunity of coming in on the new scheme, and it is organized on a basis which, it is expected, will en- able it to operate on a solvent basis. The scheme in detail will be sub- sions. DAIRYING GROWS INNEW SECTIONS OF THE PROVINCE Work in Some Parts of Ontario GRAIN IS SCARCE Weekly Report Issued By the Ontario Department of Agriculture Dairying is on the increase im many of the so-called "beef sec- tions" of the province. Several of these districts are now catering to the whole milk trade according to the weekly report of the Agricui- tural Representative Branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture, Although not of the best quality ifn many cases there appefrs to be plenty of roughage throughout the province, but grain is scarce and in some cases concentrates are be- ing bou#ht heavily. Teaming is at a standstill in most sections for lack of snow. Farm- ers In many countics are beginn- ing to have fears for their 1an wheat and clovers as a result o: the continued thawinz and freez- ing followed by sheets of ice over many of the fields of wheat and clover. There is no question but that Maritime growers have the. "in- side track" in the Ontario potato market at the prescnt time. With the exception of Grade No. 4 ang sentitied sto"k Ontario potatoes are ry low and almost a drag on the market. In many oe fine potato areas growers are f ed'ng t tubers to their stock.
