Address Carnsation Milk Products Co., Limited, Ayimer, Ontario. Boards of Trade of Temiskaming and Northern Ontario in a session held at â€" Haileybury _ passed _ resolution asking the Department of Nines to suspend all assessment work reâ€" quirements on claims recorded previâ€" ous to April 1st, 1917., The purpose of this resolution ten years ago was to permit the owners of claims to deâ€" vote their time to production in other lines and to give their services to the country in other ways that would be more immediately helpfiul. The Mines Dept. was also asked to extend the time for procuring patents for another year in cases where the assessment work is suspended for 1917. Mr. W. J. Post, of Cobalt, had previously adâ€" vocated the same idea in letters to the newspapers. â€" The official reply to Mr. Post might be summarized as follows: The claim of no miner or prospector who enlists for overseas service is at Winnipeg of Mrs. J. Pierce, mother of Mr. Chas. Pierce, Timmins pioneer business man. The late Mrs. Pierce was born in Russia in 1833, and came to Canada about 1882, the family settlinge in Saskatchewan. The late Mrs. Pierce was 84 years of age at the time of death. Tlie last recruiting rally for the Poreupine platoon of the Forestry Draft was held in the New Empire theatre, Timmins, on May 20th, 1917. The theatre was crowded to the doors for the occeasion. A motion picture was shown, and exeellent music was provided by Mr. J. White at the piano. Dr. Melnnis acted as chairman in his very able and pleasing way. _ The speakers â€" included,â€"Lieut. â€" Gordon, Rev. J. Macdonald, pastor of the Byrnes Presbyterian chureh, and G. A. Macdonald, editor of The Advance. Lieut, Gordon made a very pointed appeal for voluntary enlistment pointâ€" ing out that conseriptiom had been deâ€" cided upon and might be looked for at any time. 5 At a meeting ten years ago, the chief business was the formal passing of the building byâ€"law drafted for the town. It took half an hour to read the byâ€"law. â€" The provisions of the byâ€" law were reviewed in this column some weeks ago.

Mr. King also moved a resolution urging the regulation of food prices and of supplies. The Mattagami river used to be blocked occasionally ten years ago, but this blocking was not as serious a matâ€" ter to the public then as it would be toâ€"day, the use of the river for other than lumbering purposes at that time not being so important as toâ€"day. Sometimes, however, a blocking of the river then meant a serious loss to someone else than the general public, as witness the following paragraph from The Advance ten years ago:â€"â€" from The Advance ten years ago :â€"â€" river at the landing here is Blocked with what one enthusiastic boater described as over sixty thousâ€" and ties. There are also about as many more ties down the river at Sandy Falls. Both lots are owned by Messrs M. Boivin and Lafrance, and are destined for the National Transâ€" continental."" The river is also well supplied with logs at present. Owing to the breaking of the booms about 15,000 logs owned by Mr. Chas.
