ie 'I’here are two seasons of the year when it is a good plan to see what reâ€" and. refurbishing can be done. One is in the first two months of the year, and one in midsumm<r. There are extellent reasons for choosâ€" ing these times. It is then that stores offer : inductments to buy. Clearance sales to make ready for the coming season‘s merchandise are . necessary. Furniture occuples a great deal of, space in showrooms, so the stock must be moved either by selling or storing. The former is preferabie. So it is both to the advantage of shops and of homemakers to have these sefuiâ€"yearly refurnishing and refurbishing times. Advantages of New Things It is in midâ€"summer and midâ€"winter that a house gets to looking bit stale. It needs little touchts to dress it up, just as cne‘s wardrobe requires stimulating to buy some new article for the home, a new footstool, a sidse chair; an occasional table, a change of Urges Protection Northern Forests Fore Force Must be Retainâ€" edor Revenue from Forâ€" ests Lost, Says Member for Nlplssmg ture last ‘week by Harry Marceau, Libâ€" eral member for Nipissing, that unless an. upâ€"toâ€"date fire flghting force is regularly maintained in the north country there will ‘be heavy. losses in timber departmental revenues, and in human life as well. There are extensive areas of cutovgr sections in the north, Mr. Marceau pointed out, where natural reforestaâ€" tion is taking place. "To reduce the protection a fire force provides," sa‘d he, "is taking a big risk." ceau declared. This could not be acâ€"| complished unless a judicious policy of |. cutting was put into effect with a viliâ€" gant system of supervision in order that. wasteful cutting andâ€" sl:ashing might be reduced to a minimum. Timâ€" ber. berths sold years ago had /{{een held indefinitely after one cutâ€"over, he charged. Small carrying charges of about one per cent. per aere for ground rent and about the same for fire proâ€" tection had only been imposed. These berths?, submitted Mr. Marceau, should have ‘reéterted back to the government for the benefit of the state and the individual. Sooring the backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land policy of the former Henry administration, Mr. Marceau claimed that it would be regrettable if the same error were alâ€" lowed to be repeated. "In years gone by,." said he, "townships were thrown open for location after the red and white pine had been removed, although large quantitics of other valuable timâ€" ber. remained on land unsuitable for cultivation.

Crerar, Minister of Mints, spoke of the new tfrontier of settlement that metal minâ€" ing has given to Canada. He stressed the fact that the gold production of the Third of a Series of Addresses on the Outstanding Value of the Mining Industry to the Dominion of Canada. Dr. Camsell Makes Striking Points. region came from only two districts a year ago, whereas toâ€"day it comes from azout twenty separate and distinct iccalities. The third of the series of addresses was given last week by Dr. Charles Camsell, Deputy Minister of Mine, who said, in part:â€" "My purpose tonight is to examine n some detail a section of the new frontier in order that w»> may view mining development in the role of forging a new link between Eastern and Western Canada. The territory to be covered will include Eastern Maniâ€" toba, Northern Ontario ang Northern Qu:bec. It is hardly necessary for me to remind you that until very recently this regionâ€"a section of the rugged Canadian Shisldâ€"was regarded by the average Canadian citizen as incapable of any great economic development; it was looked upon as a land whose opâ€" portunity for human endeavour was limited mainly to the enterprises of the lumberman and trapper. Even yet, comparatively few psople realize that a small section of the same shield has yielded well above $1,500,000,000 in the metal wealth taken from the nickelâ€" deposits of Sudbury, the silver ores of the Cobalt area, and the gold cres of the Porcupine ang Kirkland Lake areas. "I am concerned with unfolding to you now an impressive picture of the new mining activitiecs in Central Canâ€" ada. Therefore, I must ask you to journey with me along the northern frontier, where we shall find the outâ€" posts of an amazingly widespread deâ€" valopment ‘of ‘mineral resources. We shall explore for one hundred miles or so north and south of the Transconâ€" tinental line of the Canadian National Railways between Winnipeg ang Queâ€" "Starting from Winnipeg, our first visit is to the Eastern Manitoba gold field Here, in an area to the east of Lake Winnipeg and centred about 125 miles northeast of the city of Winniâ€" peg, gold production is currently being taken from three geparate localities. Gratifying progress is shown by the district‘s production of about $2,000,000 "worth of gold. One mine, the San Antonio, contributes $1,300,000 worth, an output which has been atâ€" tained within four years of the proâ€" perty‘s enfry into production. The Central Manitoba ang Diana mints are the other producers. "Continuing <our journey eastwarc! into the province of Ontario, we shall take a birde‘sâ€"eye view of gold mining in the Patricia district. The outstandâ€" ing producing localities are the Red Lake and Pickleâ€"Crow areas, northwest and northeast of Hudson. Although each ‘of the camps is well over one hundred miles from its supply base on the railway, so successful has mine development been that four properties â€"Howey, McKenzie Red Lake, Central Patricia and. Pickleâ€"Crowâ€"produce beâ€" tween them gold to a value of $4,500,â€" 000 yearly. ‘The Pickleâ€"Crow camp, with its first of two mines in producâ€" tion for little more than a year and a half, is already responsible for an outâ€" put of gold in excess of what the noted Kirkland Lake camp yielded when it was over eight years old and had four producing mines.: "Going eastward to the district arcund Lake Nipigon, 100 miles north of Port Arthur, we find in the St. Anâ€" thony, Tashota, Little Long Lac and Nc:rthern @«Empire, four â€" nroducing mines in as many separate areas. Their production of gold totals about $2,700,000 yearly, and half of that amount is accounted for by the Little ‘Long Lac mine, whose productive exâ€" istence dates only from late in 1934. Two years ago, the whole district did other metails. Today, in addition to gold, it is producing chromium, shipâ€" ping the ore containing this important metal to the new smelting industry at Sault Ste. Mari®c. not have any production of gqld "Facstward from Lake Nipigon, after passing across country where the clay belt penetrates into territory south of the Transcontinental rallway, we come to a district once not:d for its producâ€" tion of iron ore. I refer to the Michiâ€" picoten area, 125 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie, where the important minerâ€" al today is gold. There, we find the Parkhill, Minto, Smith and Darwin mines contributing to an output of gold worth about $800,000 yearly. Farther east again lies the Matachewan areéa, about 40 miles southwest of Kirkland Lake, which is the source of a gold production valued at $1,800,000 ysarly from the Ashley, Xoung-Davldson, and Matachewan Consolidated mines. "As the major purpose of this talk is to feature the new areas in metal pxoduction we shall detour around the Porcupine and Kirkland Lake districts. It is appropriate; however, to mention that these farâ€"famed major imkning camps of Ontario, with production for a quarter of a century behind them, have today twenty mines which conâ€" tribute 58 per cent. of Canada‘s outâ€" put of gold. Of interest,: too, is the fact that much new development is taking ‘place there; new gold mills are being erected and new mines are ‘being ‘made." "Continuing our way now into Queâ€" bec province, we find in two separate areas west of Noranda, the Beattie and the ‘Arntfielq; mines, which togeth?r account for about $2,200,000 worth of| gold ‘production yearly. Next we come . to the twin mining towns of Rouyn and Noranda, where the first big prosâ€" l pecting drive to discover Quebze‘s minâ€" eral reésources was initiated. Early reâ€"| sults in the development of the Norâ€" anda property caused the Canadian ‘National «Railways to lay steel from Taschereau to the mine and the Temâ€" iskaming and Northern Ontario Railâ€" way to extend its line from Larder Lake. Noranda, 350 mils northwest of Montreal, has become noted for the second largest ‘output of copper in Canada. The mine is among the Doâ€" minion‘s first five in gold production, and it produces, in addition, silver, selsnium and tellurium. The total production of metals at Norandaâ€"all from one propertyâ€": reaches a yearly |value of $14,000,000. ‘"Nearing the end of our journey, we arrive at the goldâ€"producing mines in bâ€"lt ‘extending some 60 miles east of Noranda. For the sake of brevity I shall® not name the four separate proâ€" ducing areas and shall merely say that the McWatters, O‘Brien, Canadian Malartic, Siscoe, Sullivan, Greene Staâ€" bell, and Lamaque mines, collectively produce today $6,800,000 in gold a year. The Siscoe, which led the parade of new gold min‘ts in the district, has accounted for nearly $9,000,000 worth of the metal since 1929. : "For 900 miles from Winnipeg we have gone through a region producing. metals and I shall summarize what we have ssen. But, first, however, let me explain that, comprehensive as the tour has been, we have keen unable to visit all the producing regions. We could have found a number of other districts where small gold mills are cperating, and we could have visited scores of properties where gold or? ‘bodies are under development. We failed to visit the Lake of the Woods and ’fiainy River districts of Western Ontario where many gold mines, parâ€" tially developed 30 or more years ago, have reopened, several of them now being in production; nsither did we Schreiber, on the north* shore Schreiber, on the north* shore of Lake Superior, where gold producâ€" tion has started, nor Obt, on the southern fringe of the clay belt, where preparations are being made to mine gold ores. Again we could have gone and there found a large gold ready to operate. "In Quebec, we passed over the Shawkey and Perron mines, which are entering the production stage, also the scenes of intensive development at Mud Lake, Rose Lake and Lake Chiâ€" bougamau. If we had gone into the Chibougamau district, 250 miles northâ€" wost of Quebec City, and 130 miles inort.h of the Transcontinental, we should have observed largeâ€"scale deâ€" velopment of gold and goldâ€"copper 'ore bodies. Our trip would then have extended to more than 1000 miles from Winnipeg and in all this distance â€"we would have found hardly a gap of any S'@ _“bet;wéen camps throughout the whole metalâ€"mining front. "Now. let us consider what our tour has disclosed, rememi:ccring that we were interested mainly in new mining areas. Therefore, our summary will not include Canada‘s famous Porcupine and Kirkland Lake gold camps, the Cobalt diver area, and the farther removed but worldâ€"renowneg Sudbury nickelâ€" copper district. Without going farther west or northwest than the ‘Eastern Manitoba gold fisld, we have found, however, that our new mineral fronâ€" tier has 18 or more new gold and copâ€" perâ€"gold producing localities, in which are 28 new mines. The oldest, the Horne mine at Noranda, began production just before Christmas in 1927, eight years ago. "The newness of the frontier can be better realized from giving further thought to the ages of these mines. During 1927 to 1930 inclusive, only one of these 28 mines was brought into proâ€" duction in each year. Then, in each of the years 1931 and 1932, two more had their birth. And in 1933, an additional three were added to the list. But, comâ€" ing to the years 1934 ang 1935, we find that actually nine mines in the former year and eight in the latter, joined the \throng of producers from thr new ‘areas. Most of these new mines may be said, therefore, to be so new that thev are inst exnericncing their first be said, therefore, to be so new they are just expericncing their growing pains. "Yet. these 28 mines have already given Canada an output of gold and copper worth $35,000,000 yearly. This value of production actually excesds the value of gold produced at Kirkland Lake, likewise Porcupine‘s yearly gold output. Lt me emphasize, therefore, that even in its infancy the new minâ€" ing development of the Eastern Maniâ€" tobaâ€"Northern Quebsc frontier has given Canada the equivalent of a new r | I Porcupine camp, or, if you prefer, the equivalent of a new Kirkland Lake. ‘"*Considersd in another way, the new. camps produce gold in greater quanâ€" tity than the Porcupine and Kirkland Lake camps together yielded in 1921 when they were 12 and 9 years old. Furthermore, the mines in these new camps are treating 4,300,000 tons of ore yearly, which is about threeâ€"quarters of the volume seing milled at min‘s in Pcorcupine and Kirkland Lake that support 40,000 And, you may be interested to know, five of the new mining properties, in areas of Central Canada outside of Porcupine ang Kirkâ€" land Lake, disbursed over $6,250,000 in |dividends to shareholders during 1935. "My remarks will have served their purpose if I have left in your minds a realistic impression of the new minâ€" ing development in the territory from Eastern Manitoba to Northern Queâ€" bec. But I cannot overlook an even more complete picture of the linking of East and West through mining. For, if to the $35,000,000 worth of output from the new metal mining camps there is added the $67,500,000 worth reépresented in current output from Porcupine and Kirkland Lake, we find that the total production of metals from a narrow ‘belt of territory beâ€" tween Winnipeg and Quebec has an annual worth of ovsr one hundred milâ€" licns of dollars. "Thus, a real metallic link has been forged between Eastern and Western Canada by series of closelyâ€"spaced mining camps producing $100,000,00 in wealth ycarly. We might go further and add Sudbury‘s $63,000,000 in metals, and we then find the metal 'production of "Central Canada‘s mines CARNATION MILK | undiluted /; cup butter 11/, cups bread crumbs \/, teaspoon pe pper 1 â€" teaspoon sall Combine all ingredients, turn into a buttered ring mold and steam for 2 hours.

V alue of the Wood Used in Manufacturing Shoes It is astonishing how important the little things of life are. Some of them â€" have been the great romanCces of inâ€" dustry, bringing huge fortunes to inâ€" ventors. The little metal clip at the mmd of a shoe lace is one Of them. What a bcon it has been to mankind, what wos to tWe children when it works off and shoes have to ‘be laced without it. | Most of our boots and shoes are made on woodsn lasts, and many of us keep them on wooden trees. Some wood actually goes into the finished i:oct or shoe in the form of pegs, shanks and heels. These wooden findings are all but small things, but their manu‘acture creates a great deal of work and even in a small population such as Canada‘s there are actua‘lly 600 people ergaged: in turning them out. Last year the factory value of the output was $1,250,â€" 000. As an illustration of the work they create for others, the materia‘s they useq . in the industry cost nearly $400,000.
