The Temiskaâ€" ming Testing Laboratories at Cobalt are equlpped to sample ores, and proâ€" vision has been made for the purchase of gold ore. Ontario is now one of the leading sources of gold, being outranked only by the Transvaal and United States. In 1925 the production was valued at $30,207,545 over 83 per cent. of the entire output of Canada. The nickel mines of Sudbury produce 90 per cent. of the world‘s requirements of that metal. The silver output in 1925 had a value of $7,084,864. Dividends and bonuses paid by gold and silver minâ€" ing companies to the end of 1924 amounted to $140,289,729. An attractive field is offered to the prospector in Northern â€" Ontario. Seventy per cent. of the entire northâ€" land is underlain with preâ€"Cambrian rocks, in which occur the nickel mines of Sudbury, the silver deposits of Cobalt, South Lorrain and Gowganda, the gold of Poreupine and Kirkland Lake, copper on the north shore of Lake Huron, and iron in Michipicoten and other areas.

When a man puts money in an ordinâ€" ary commercial venture and loses his cash, usually his business judgment are considered to be at fault. Busiâ€" ness as a whole, however, is not conâ€" demned. In the mining game it is otherwise. The man who loses money in mining, no matter how wildâ€"catâ€" tish the scheme may have been, at once, as a general thing, sets up a howl that miriing is a crooked game, and the ery is taken up by all his friends and his wife‘s relations. If he should make an honest dollar or two out of mining, he is hailed as a lad so smart that even the mining. crooks are not able to trim him. The fact, of course, is that mining toâ€"day is little more venturesome than the ordinary lines df commercial busiâ€" ness. In fact, there is no doubt but that a man has a better chance of making good money from an honest mining venture than from any other ondinary business investimen{.

Elk Lake, Ont., Sept. 29th, 1926. To the Editor of The Poreupine Advance . Dear Sir:â€"Mr. L. Acheson, the Chief Fire Ranger of this district, is the first man to run an automobile to Matachewan, which he did last week, leaving in the morning and returning at evening. It is to be hoped in the near future that this road will be put in good shape for autos right on from Elk Lake to Timmins. I believe that the future of Timmins and the Poreuâ€" pine to the southeast, south and southwest, where there are already good showings of gold, and which seeâ€" tions are in the Kirkland Lake belt. This road could tap MeNeil and other townships, and would also conneet Poreupine and Gowganda and Shinâ€" ingtree. The latter place at present is having the power line built to it. Who is so blind as to say that this road would not be a grand thing for Porecupine? Let anyone come to the Matachewan country and go up on one of the fire rangers‘ towers, and on a clear day he will see about sixty townships, about 2000 square miles of forest, and northeast he will sec Kirkland Lake gold camp. â€" Northâ€" west he will see the black smoke of the MelIntyre Mine at Poreupine. Southwest he will see Gowganda very plainly, and southeast he can see the Beaver Mine at Elk Lake and the silver country around (Get up on the ‘ tower! Look south, and as far east as one can look there is silver minâ€" ing! Then turn around. and look north and from east to west there is America‘s greatest gold mining! Where else in the world can you find such a place, and in between these zones there are hundreds of square miles of country not yet seratched as "Porcupine Pioneer" Believes the Future of Timmins and the Porcupine Lies to the Southeast, South and Southâ€" west, and Advocates Connections by Road With Elk Lake and Other Camps to the South.
