How a mothérless baby moose was kept alive by a mixture of condensed milk and water, fed out of a teapot tied about its neck with a woodsâ€" man‘s shirt, is told by a party of proâ€" spectors returning from the Woman Lake District. The baby moose was discovered beside the dead body of the mother, which had been shot. The baby, only a few days old and unable to care for itself, was taken in charge by the prospectors. _ The foster parents ran out of condensed milk after two weeks and a gruel of flour and water was resorted to. The delicate stomach of the baby was un able to get away with this sour dough diet and after a few days hunger strike it was found dead one mornâ€" ing by the party near their camp. PROSPECTORS FAILED TO RAISE BABY MOOSE. Moaide in Canada " by the Makers of lestl?‘s Buby Food A glance at a geological map of Canada at once shows that most of the Hudson Bay Watershed is comâ€" posed of Precambrian formations. The exception is a strip underlain by Palaeozoie rocks along the south west â€" shore.. Seattered _ throughout the Precambrian are areas of Keewaâ€" tin formation with which are freâ€" quently associated rocks of Cobalt and Timiskaming ages. These are the areas that hold within themselves the possibilities of future Sudburys, Cobalts, Poreupines, Kirkland Lakes, and Rouyns, so that it is doubtful if there is another area of similar size in the world that offers greater opâ€" portunities to prospectors. The reâ€" discoveries of gold at Red Lake and to the northeast in Ontario as well as in Manitoba are a foretaste of what we may expect as the counâ€" try becomes better known and are bound to create wideâ€"spread interest. Iron Ore Iron has bheen known to oceur in great quantity in the iron formation of the Belcher Islands. The grade is such according to reports, that beneficiation will be required hefore it can be profitably shipped. Judsâ€" ing by the gradual lowering of the iron content of the ore, going into the iron and steel trade, it should not be more than 10â€"15 years at the outside before these ores should be capable of commercial handling. This, of course, takes for granted railway transportation south from the south end of James Bay. THFE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO.

In course of time both of these deposits should prove valuable. ’ Gypsum + Large deposits of gypsum are found along the Moose River between the Abitibi and Missinaibi rivers. Much of it is beautifully coloured and as several large and financially strong companies are interested, it is probâ€" able that prospecting boreâ€"holes or shafts will be put down this summer to obtain more definite information as to the value of the discovery. Fireclay and Glass Sand Deposits of the mpst refractory fire clay yet found in Canada oceur on the Mattagami river 55 miles north of Kapuskasing, the nearest point on the Canadian National Railway. The extent of these clay beds is not yet determined but it is known to be large, Lignite and Coal Deposits of lignite have been known in the river banks of the Ahiâ€" tibi," Mattagami and Missinaibi for many years, but interest has been aâ€" wakened by a boreâ€"hole that was put down last fall near the Mattagami in Kipling township. Beds of lignite were passed through but a bed of subâ€" bituminous coal was reported to have been encountered at a little over 100 feet in depth. ~Colour is given to the report from the fact that lower Creâ€" taceous material, which is the forâ€" mation containing the coal measures of Alberta and Saskatchewan, has‘ been identified in the same locality. In the northâ€"west the Cretaceous forâ€" mation is very thick so it is quite posâ€" sible that some of it may have exâ€" tended over into Ontario.

FR _ ‘lLotal Assets in excess of $ 7s0,000.000 As a great deal of the formation that might be oil bearing lacks the impervious cover necessary to retain the oil, the possible areas remaining are rather restricted.

From analogy with other ocâ€" currences, these formations, may hbe expected to contain oil.

Analyses of surface specimens have shown them to give a crude oil yield as high as 5.5%. It is probable that deeper buried portions would have somewhat higher oil content.

During the past month or two The Advance has published several letâ€" ters from Mr. Chas. W. Peterson, publisher of The Farm and Ranch Reviéew, Calgary, Alberta.

In other words, colonization of the right kind would eure practieally all of Canaâ€" da‘s ills.
