Miss Lilian Edmison, the Victorian Order nurse at Cobalt, told the comâ€" mittee at the annual meeting that she had received a call from the woman in question, an Italian by birth...

Since the doctor had left no special inâ€" structions in the matter, the nurse was prepared to follow the usual practice and take the patient‘s temperature and give iA sponge bath, should the woman be in bed. On arrival at the house, its mistress was washing the floor, but she stopped her household labours and deâ€" manded the bath as her right when she learned this was the treatment she otherwise would have received. She got the sponging and then went back on her knses at the job of scrubbing the floor. American â€" Lumberman:â€"Give your money a job and the other fellow will be able to find one.

Thos. G. Murphy. Effect of Depres ion on Forest Indusâ€" tries. Outlosck for Coming Year. Dm:ring the yéear Jusi paS2d UIC ii1â€" dustries engaged in the manufacture of | forest products, in common with other industries. have exrtrienced serious difâ€" ficulties in marketing their products, states the Hon. Thomas G. Murphy. Minister of the Interior, in his New Year‘s review of the forest situation in Cznada. Faced with both worldâ€"wide overâ€"production and restricted demand, curtailment of production has been necessitated. Sincs the United States Canada. Aside from the Fact that in the manufacture of paper, lumber, and other products of the forest approxiâ€" mately $500,000,000 is added to .the wealth of Canadz annually, and reâ€" munerative employment is afforded to 200,000 people, these products are a most imptortant factor to our transporâ€" tation systems. It is not generally apâ€" preciated that more railway cars are required to handle forest products than grain and grain products and that durâ€" ing the years 1927 to 1929, 17.6 per cent. of the cars loaded in Canada carried forest products, while 15.5 per cent. were loaded with grain and grain proâ€" ducts. The consequences of depression in our forest industries are indicated by the fact that during the past year there was a decrease below 1929 of approxiâ€" mately 100,000 cars used for forest p1°oâ€" ducts as against a drop of 45,000 in the number of cars loaded with grain and gsrain products. The pulp and paper industry which, during the last decade, has become the most important manufacturing indusâ€" try in the Dominion as gauged by the ne; value of production and the emâ€" ployment afforded, has experienced the effect of too rapid expansion and it will take time for the increasing demand for paper to overtake the plant developâ€" ment. During the last fifty years the annual world consumption of paper has increased from 1,000,000 tons to 23,â€" 0c0,000 tons and withn thé increase in education and extended use of paper for purposes other than printing, there is every reason to expect an accelerated increase in the demand for paper as soon as the preetnt tempcorary trade depression is passed.‘ Sixty per cent. of the paper manufacâ€" tured in the world is at presentâ€" conâ€" sumed in the United States where Canâ€" ada possesses‘ a considerable advantage over other countries on account of her sexcranhical location and transportaâ€" rint ted matter, during the year 1925â€" has averaged $283,356.156 and as imports averaged only $36,467,506, e has therefcre been an average urable balance of trade of $246,888,â€" of which 83.8 per cent. occurred in trade with the United States and er cent. with Great Britain. The itenance of a stable market for this rtable surplus in forest producis as fiset to imports of other commodiâ€" is therefore of vital importance to Try Miss Caldwell‘s Recipe for *RPASPBERRY BISCUITS . 2 cups flour 4 TAaADi@eSspoons Ssnoricniny 4 teaspoons Magic 24 cup milk Baking Powder saâ€"cubes of sugar teaspoon salt Raspberry juice or syrup tables poons sugar Mix and sift the dry ingredients. Cut the hard, cold shortening into them with a knife, using a quick, short, chopping motion; or reduce the hard cold fat to tiny particles with a pastry blender or a steelâ€"pronged fork. When the mixture resembles a very coarse meal, add the liquid, mixing quickly and lightly. Turn out the dough on a slightly floured board; pat it down lightly or roll it to thickness of about one inch. Shepe with a small cutter or cut in squares with a floured knife. Dip the small lumps of sugar into syrup from canned or fresh respberries . . .

It may be pointed out also that countries have deâ€" veloped their productive capacity pracâ€" tically to the limit of the growth of their ferests and cannot be expected to participate to any great extent in fillâ€" ing increased demands. In spite of her va«t forest area, the United States has become an importer rather than an exâ€" porter of wood. With regard to Russia, authorities agree that, though under pressure of immediate fiscal and politiâ€" cal needs, that country may be able to increase her exports of wood, nevertheâ€" less her accessible forest resources will nct permit exploitation at the present rate for more than a few years. Canada of all countries is the most advantageously situated to meet the inâ€" creased world demand for softwood lumber and paper to which every indiâ€" cation points. From our Pacific and Atlantic ports every important market can be reached and the central portion of the Dominion is close to and conâ€" nected by rail with the great centres of consumpiâ€"ion in the United States. Practically oneâ€"third of the Dominion is essentially forest land; about 555,â€" 000,000 acres is classed as accessible and productive, 200,000,000 acres carrying timber of merchantable size and 355,â€" 000,000 acres, young growth of varicus ages. It Is a matter of the greatest national importanee that this vast area be maintained in the highest state of production, that the dissipation of our forest resources by fire, which has alâ€" ready consumed 60 per cent. of our virâ€" gin timber, as compared with 15 per cent. used, be stopped; and that every effort known to the science of silviculâ€" ture be made to improve and accelerate the growth of the more valuable species of trees. Compete statistics are not as yet compiled for the 1930 fire season. Nevertheless, information now available would indicate a vast improvement over the vear 1929 in the matter of forest fire Visitors to Jasper National Park, in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, stand close to the very act of creation. In this beautiful area, life once was cradled. Convulsion seized the land and reared rock upward to the skies. Out of the welter"~came the glorious peaks to defy ice and time, their rugged beauty a magnetic attracâ€" tion for thousands of sightâ€"seers. Small wonder mere mortals stand by and drink in the grandeur of the peaks. Above is Maligne Lake, shores framed by mountains. C.N.R,.

This asâ€" sociation was formed a year or more ago with a view to securing concerted Iacti-on from Haileybury, Cobalt, New ‘Liskeard and other towns and villages in that section, with a view to protectâ€" | ing and preserving fish and game there. The purposes, aims and objects of the ‘association are pwactically the same as |those of the Timmins Rod and Gun lclub, with the additicnal advantage \ gained by the coâ€"operation of the towns ‘concerned. There is a Rod and Gun | Club at Iroquois Falls, and the proposal i has been made that the local associaâ€" ‘ tions in this area form a general asâ€" ‘sociation in the same way and after ‘the same manner as the centres of !Temiska.ming have done. There is {something to be said for this plan, the wisdom of old proverbs, such as "In unity there is strength," being selfâ€" ‘evident. The Temiskaming~Fish and Game Protective Association has been ‘active during the past year and has Eaccomplished much of advantage. EMISKAMING FISH AND GAME ASSOCIATION WORK E. Curry, of Cobalt, was elected preâ€" sident of the Temiskaming Fish and Game Protective Association at the anâ€" nual meeting of that body, held at Englehart over the weekâ€"end. A. McMenemy, Englehart, is vic>â€" president, and W. M. Shepherd, Cobalt, secretaryâ€"treasurer. An executive comâ€" mittee was elected. Annual meetings in future will be held on October 1, it was decided. The association is continuing its efâ€" forts to secure fish from the Governâ€" ment hatcheries and for the installaâ€" tion of fish ladders at the various dams in the district, and is negotiating with the authorities regarding the alleged pollution of Liake Temiskaming with waste from the pulp mill north of Haileybury and also with regard to commercial fishing in that body of water. effected by improvement in protection organization and a growing sy mpathetic and coâ€"cperative spirit on the part of the Canadian people. The Forest Service of the Dapartment of the Interior is at present engaged in 1 comprehensive inventory o the forâ€" ast resources in coâ€"operation with the yarious provincial authorities and it is ilso ceonducting in each province an exâ€" ‘ensive survey of the reproduction and rate of growth of the forests. When these two projects are completed, reâ€" Hable data will be available upon which both governments and industries can formulate forest policies devised to enâ€" sure continuous production through reâ€" zsulation of depletion of the forest from all causes to conform with annua® zrowth The results of the surveys concluded to date show that preperly rotected and managed, the productive and accessible forest land in Canada is :apable of growing much more timber ‘than is now being used. If this preâ€" liminary finding is substantiated by subsequent investigations, we may rest assured that the permanence of the ‘ndustries using wood as a raw material will be contingent only on proper proâ€" Sudbury Star:â€"A Chicago brokerage Arm is trying to round up block of forged stock certificates which are in djational circulation.

Report of the Dean of Faculty of Forestry As part of the annual report of the president of the University of Toranto just issued for 1930 there is a report of the dean of the faculty of forestry, Dr. C. D. Howe. This report, which should be of special interest here, reads as :â€" "The number of students registered in the Faculty of Forestry at the beginâ€" ning of the year 1929â€"30 was the same, sixtyâ€"six. as that during the previous year, but for various reasons four men Ilropped out in the first few weeks of the term. As"usual, much the greater aumber of students came from Ontario, ut we had cne each from Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, Nova scotia, Newfoundland, England, and Holland. From an academic standâ€" point we have had a successful year as may be indicated by the fact that only about oneâ€"half as many failed in the final examinations as in the previous session. We attempt to improve the quality of the work in the faculty each year through the gradual raising of the entrance requirements and changes in teaching methods. That we have been fairly successful in this is attested by the fact that there has been in the past fve years a substantial decrease in the percentage of men who failed or were s*arred in the final examinations. "Owing to the depressed condition of the pulp and paper industry the field of work for this year‘s gradutes and the undergraduates has been very much restricted. For the past few years the industry has taken about oneâ€"half of the graduates for permanent positions and about the same proportion of unâ€" dergraduates for summer work, but this year it took none of the graduates and only seven of the unclergraduatn No new forestry work is being initiated by the pulp and paper companies. In fact some of them have discharged their tforesters as part of their policy of reâ€" trenchment. This state of offairs has been brought about, not by the actual operators in the forest, but by undue expansion under the inducement of lpurely promoters‘ rirofits, which in turn led to overâ€"production and more lately by a struggle among certain financial groups for the capitalistic control of the industry. Meanwhile the forests and forestry suffer. "Fortunately, however, the forestry work of governmental organizations is increasing, particularly in Ontario. Nine of the eleven graduates woere given positions by the Provincial Forestry Branch and one each were taken by the Dominion and British Clumbia. This is the largest number engaged by Onâ€" tario in any one year. The. province now has the largest staff of technically trained foresters of any organization in the country. This speaks for itself in regard to the enlightened and progresâ€" sive rolicvy of the nrovinzsisl governâ€" J. R.
