HIS FELLOW EMPLOYEES REGRET JACK‘S ILLNESS The C.N.P.C. Review, published monthly in the interests of the emâ€" ployees of Canada Northern Powel ‘"Our good friend, Jack Faithful, has been having a very trying time figchting against a severe attack of pleurisy and pneumonia. _ _ Those who know Jack will understand what this enforced idleness must mean to him. His boundless energy is temporarily curbed, and for the time being the miners coming off shift at 5 am. will miss passing Jack on his morning constitutional to the Dome. We‘ll say Jack caught cold while on duty, paid little attention to it and has suffered the penalty of sickness for some week past. Fortunately he is on the road to recovery, and we know we are only echoing the hope of all in the organization that he be his old _ irrepressibly _ humorous _ self azain.‘‘ Corporation, in reference to the reâ€" cent illness of Mr. J.

FEDERATION LIFE HEAD OFFICE ECONOMICAL TOURS Hilda: Oh, hello, Phyllis, your Confederation agent was over to see me again last night, but I haven‘t yet taken out my Endowment Policy. Phyllis : Haven‘t you? Do you know, Hilda, I think you are rather foolish ? Hilda : But why ?â€"It would mean so much money to save each year, and there are always so many things I want to buy. Phyllis: That‘s exactly the point. You‘ll never save, beâ€" cause, so long as you have the money, you can‘t deny yourself anything. But once you have invested in a Confederation Endowment Policy you will meet the premiums on it just like any other giuâ€"the same as I do. Hilda: What a nuisance you are, Phyllis! You are so brutally logical. Phyllis: Well, it‘s something to be logical, even if one is brutal ! _ But I do wish you would telephone "my‘" Confederation man, as you call him, and settle it once for all.

"Really,"‘ he said, ‘‘I can hard beâ€" lieve my own census."‘ BIG VOLUME OF SALES CONTINUES ON EXCHANGTE A lot of people are under the imâ€" pression that business on the stock exchange has fallen away. The newspapers have been leaving this impression, but the actual hfmles do not prove anything of the sort. The total number of shares dealt in durâ€" ing the first three months of 1927 is gsiven as 123,503,777, up to April 17th. The total tl‘andetIOI]b for the comâ€" plete year of 1926 represented only a few million more shares, or 129,753,â€" 000 shares, to be exact. \lready thlb year there have been _ 40,000,000 more shares dealt in than in the w hule year of 1925. Comparison of the shares dealt in for the first three months of 1928 does not make a fair showing with the transactions for the last three months of 1927, perhaps, but the number of shares dealt in thts year represents a considerable increase over the busiâ€" ness for the first three months of last vyear, for instance. The transactions in mining shares these days shows a steady daily turnover averaging aâ€" round the million mark. If continuâ€" ed, it will mean that the 1928 transâ€" actions will exceed the 1927 figures by a couple of hundred million shares. There are no record days this year, running into the three and four milâ€" lion record class, but the general average keeps high. ‘‘«My dear,""‘ said the old man tenâ€" derly, *‘‘toâ€" da\ is our diamond wedâ€" (lmsr, and I have a little surprise for Â¥You.*‘ MILD or MEDIUM â€" Now made in mild type, for the indoor smoker as well as in the regular medium strength for the vast majority of pipe users in Canada. ,;;; â€"Exchange Dear 8iz :â€"â€"Oven southwest of cupine, at the headwaters of Montreal river there is enough pulpwood and tie timber at the height of land which the Government could sell and get enough money to put the road that runs along the power line in Al shape for autos right to Elk Lake. _ The road is already there, and the Monâ€" treal river is already there to take all the pulp and logs to the mulls. This vreen timber area is a few miles wide, but north of it to Poreupine is alâ€" ready a burnedâ€"over country and also just south of this green area the counâ€" try is burned far south. So, why not dispose of this valuable lot of pulp and tie timber and use the money to put in shape one of the most imâ€" portant, if not the most important, roads in this North? If this green stretch is allowed to stand and a fire ever gets into it, away it will go and be a total loss, whereas if it were cut right away and made use of, it would give employment to many men, and with the money derived and used to put the road in shape for tourists, the road also would give employment and be a valuable asset to the Govâ€" ernment. _ The tourists would be able to see twice as much of this North Land, and their money would be spread around and do the greatest good to the greatest number, instead of it all going one way. Mr. H. A. Preston Suggests a Way to Meet the Cost of the Belt Line of Roads. Let Mr. Finlayson or some of the Forestry members come to Matacheâ€" wan and use the territory I speak of and the\' will soon agree that it would be a wise thing to do, because if it is not done, it sunpl\ means that there will be a big loss should it ever burn. â€" Where ther is any large timâ€" ber in this part of the \orth, where mining is going on all around it, 1 think it should be cut and made use of, and such is the case down in Fasâ€" ken, Michie, Baden, Argyle, MeNeill, Roberson, Sheba and Alma townâ€" ships. Lots of water, and a river to get it out easy. If this is not done then I think it is time to st()p preachâ€" ing ‘‘Preserve the Forest.‘! Yours truly.

When startâ€" inz a plantation, the land should first have a heavy application of manure and then iIbe deeply ploughed gand thoroughly ~cultivated. ‘*Propagation consists of allowing suckers which spring up near the old plants to grow until fall, when they may be planted out or left and planted early the following spring. When _ transplanting, the _ plants should be cut back to six inches from the ground. _ The plants should be set three feet apart with a distance of six feet between rows, or in hills five feet each way. ‘*Although new canes are produced each year, the raspberry grows from the same roots year after year, the shoots which spring up one year proâ€" duce fruit the next and then die. Pruning consists of removing the dead canes and the weaker of the new ones leaving five or six to bear fruit.
