The Porcupine district has excellent agricultural possibilities, and a mum her of settlers throughout the district are proving that farming and stock- raising may be successfully and pro- fitahly earried on here. Dairy farms have been effeetively conducted by a number of farmers in this district, and the raising of stock has been car- ried on with success by many.

A good many millions more have been indieat.. ed by the diamond drilling done, and to quote a favourite expression of many of the best posted mining men and engineers, "the country has not even been 'sevatehed' yet.” _ At a Board ot.' Trade Banquet in Timmins wine two years ago, the thenl President of the Board of Trade, who; is by profession an expert in (lianiomh drill work and has (-arried on opera- tions through the Porcupine for years, made the statement, which has gone unchallenged and uneontradieted to the present time, that there has not been a single prospect in the district that had been sutlieiently finaneed and ellieiently managed that had not eventually proved itself to be a real mine. ' The Deeper You Go the Better The Grade. Mining men generally are agreed that Poreupine has few, if any, real failures, and there is another very commonly-held belief in the same ex- perieneed eireles,--that in Porcupine the further down you go the better the grade. The latter idea has been amply supported by the work on the deeper levels of the Hollinger and Me Intyre. At the Hollinger Mine ore has been proven to a depth of 2400 feet, a statement of striking signif1e- ance when it is remembered that by N o Failures Here if Finances And Management Right.
