GENERAL PROGRESS MADE IN MINING DURING YEAR ~Members of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy have receivâ€" ed the following letter from the secreâ€" taryâ€"treasurer, Geo. C. MacKenzie: "The year now drawing to its close has witnessed‘ excellent progress in practically every mining camp throughâ€" out the country. The frontiers of the industry have been pushed further afield by packâ€"train, canoe and aeroâ€" plane into districts that were regarded as inaccessible a few days ago. True, some of these new fields will not yvield results, others may prove abortive but, nevertheless, the advance is general all along the line There is no stalemate or any indication of standing still. "A strong undercurrent of optimism throughout the rank and file of the inâ€" stitute is reflected in its increasing growth and stability, and the position of the institute, in any period, is an excellent barometer of the general prosâ€" perity of our mining industry.‘ HAILEYBURY MEN SHOW TRUE CHRISTMAS SPIKIT A touching example of the true. Christmas spirit, and the spirit that at one time at least was typical of the North Land, and still holds more or less good in this countryâ€"WaAas displayed at Haileybury last week when men about town provided money enough to send a fellow citizen to hospital in Toâ€" ronto for needed treatment. This genâ€" tleman has for over yEar suffered from an injury to his kneeâ€"Ccap and has been unable to follow his usual line of work. All possible medical attention was given him at Haileybury, but it was found recently that nothing short of Loh C h oo Oe t oY an operation by a specialist would asâ€" sist. him further. Having been out of employment so long on account of his injury, he was not able to finance any further treatment, but the spirit of the North came to his assistance in fine way. In providing the funds so generâ€" ously for this worthy purpose the Hailâ€" eybury men assisting named only one condition, "that there shouldn‘t be any fuss about helping a §£00G 1C°1I0OW . ning in hard luck for the time." cordingly, there is no mention of names of those making the good possible, and, indeed, the matter w scarcely have been known at all not the injured man felt that he st surely thank his kind friends in lie way for the prospect given him his family of the breadwinner | restored to his former health strength.

From 1896 to 1902 I hunt-| ed moose each fall in North Quebec in the Lake Keepawa country. Moose were extremely abundant but deer were quite rare owing to the large iqu_antity of wolvs which, in almost |every case. travelled in families, known as A pack. â€"I simply mention this to show the reader why I don‘t believe ‘wolves‘ interfere with moose. | Li h ad.ad started out to locate the whereabouts of | i | | the caribou. â€" From 1903 to 1910 I‘ started fully two weeks ahead of the| rest of our hunting party and during | those eight years I hunted at seven-"‘ teen different droppingâ€"off places along the Canadian Pacific Railway, between Biscotasing and Fort William, but for| some reason the caribou were fast disâ€"| appearing. In every case I saw a% sprinking of deer signs. Therefore, Ii knew from personal observation that| that vast wilderness north and west of| Sudbury was partly stocked with deer‘ | | twenty years ago and ten miles west of | |Sudbury right to Bisco, deer were in 4 there by the hundreds and their paths ‘lin the woods, along which the buck ‘stopped and pawedâ€"yes, and rubbed their horns on the bushes. I saw seventyâ€"two deer in two weeks and any inexperienced hunter could get his two bucks in a week. But the wolvesl came in and increased by leaps and bounds and ate the deep up alive. â€"Ask any hunter who hunted between Sudâ€" bury and Bisco between 1905 and 1910 and they will all say they could take you to the remnants of five or ten deer killed by wolves. Think of the number they would not find! PE VE L‘ By this time in my life I had unâ€" consciously become the leader of the Kingsville hunting party, but my amâ€" bition for hunting deer and moose had had heart‘s satisfaction and now I M on ie F Another fact I want to present to all thinking humanity. The moose are still there. Now, the little deer are many times harder to approach than the lordly moose. Have these soâ€"called twoâ€"legged wolves gone in there with their repeating rifles Mr. Millar speaks of and killed the deer and left these| moose with a five foot spread of antâ€"| lers? No, they have not, but the| wolves have. This fact alone should1 prove to anyone it has been the that reduced the deer, not the hunter. Now. what happened? Why, this is as plain as A.B.C. The price of furs started soaring in 1904 and kept on going right up. Think of it! Mink that sold for one dollar going up to ten and twenty dollars. Fishers that | sold for three or four going to as high as one hundred and twentyâ€"five dolâ€"| lars. Otter from five dollars to Aifty dollars. In fact, all furâ€"bearing aniâ€" mals soared in proportion and the wolf hunters let the wolf go decause they could make ten dollars to one huntâ€" ing furs. In 1916 the beaver season opened. That gave the trappers an-‘ other good financial lift, beaver selling for as high as fifty dollars each. In November 1925, two young men shot two large bull moose far back from the railroad. I volunteered to help them pack them and seven of us starter at 8 am. and did not return until 5.30 pm. There was A fresh snow. I led the way and I never saW a deer track, but wolves could be heard nowling all day. This, remember, twenty years ago was the best deer ground I ever saw. Sss 7 «/ .cE oMr Millar tells us "that 10 per cent. of the deer are eaten up by bears." Just wouldn‘t that make one laugh! h B s csutic d The most successful demonstration of| bringing back our game we have in America is in the State of Pennsylâ€" vania where in 1904 there was pracâ€" tically nothing only the breeding stock. These wise game propagators had liberated and in 1907 they killed 200l bucks, and in 1926 they killed nearly 13000, and in 1927 they killed over 14,â€" 000, and this year, as their flock has increased from 2500 in 1907 to over increased from 2500 in 1907 to over 700,000,. they are compelled to go in a.nd; shoot the does. They have increased o this great.number, shooting being allowed each year. But, remember, there are no wolves in Pennysvania. Those men, knowing bear wouldn‘t the deer, they wisely liberated the same time as the deer was liâ€" vania in 1926. Thus, this is absolute proof that bear don‘t decrease the deer. 1t is the wolf, because, as I have said, . there are no wolves in Pennsylvania . and. moreover, I have never heard of any Game Proieciiy© aficials being so foolish as to try and propagate deer where wolves existed. Remember deer are only native North American sheep and the wolf is the native sheep dog and has the same killing effect on these wild sheep as the domestic sheep dog has on our domestic sheep. Mr. Millar states that in "1865 in VYVermont which was settled one hunâ€" dred years before Ontario, the deer were gone and deer were imported anc liberated and they multiplied in this E5i c state., s0 way gives us rane.
