The exact figures, according to the report, are $2,245,081,01, divided between the disâ€" tricts whose respective headquarters are at North Bay, Sudbury, Sault Ste. Marie, New Liskeard, Cochrane and Kapusking. The public account book shows the expenditures in some detail for the Northern Ontario Development Dept., under which head the greater part of the money is spent that has to do with Northern Ontario. While the yearly vote for the Northern Development Dept. funds is usually set at five milâ€" lion the past year or two, the total expenditure in the department for 1928 was $4,240,465.73. The annual statement of the public accounts of Ontario, covering the fiscal year ending Oct. 3list, 1928, was preâ€" sented to the Legislature last week.

PANGOFF AGAIN WINS BIG RAGE, MAKING NEW RECORD THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Farmers‘ Advocate:â€"Out of our total population of around, nine millions, two and oneâ€"quarter millions are in school. Education makes heavy deâ€" mands upon the treasury of the state and the family purse, but education is not as costly as ignorance. Other items of expendRure of the Dept. include loans to settlers of $53,.â€" 625; purchase of cattle and other live stock for settlers and farmers, $11,â€" 271.52; purchase and distribution of seed grain, $12,305.80, and expenses of trip of certain members of the Legisâ€" lature to Northern Ontario $606.60. The report also shows that, in the period covered, expenditures of $177,â€" 711,.88 wer made on the North Bayâ€" Ssoo trunk road. Of course, more than halfâ€"the exact figures being $98,698.70 â€"was spent from the Sault Ste. Marie district headquarters. On the North Bayâ€"Callander stretch of the Ferguson Highway there was spent $52,570.84. The greatest expenditure in all departâ€" ments was in the Cochrane district, more than a quarter of the total outlay, or $643,347.25, being spent in that seeâ€" tion. The smallest was at Kapuskasâ€" ing, where the amount was $156,410.26. The road through to Hearst may abe completed this year, giving direct conâ€" nection by road from that railway cenâ€" tre to southern Ontario. In addition, there were expenditures on the bridge over the Wabi river at New Liskeard, which totaled $22,387.28. The municipality paid half of the cost of the erection of this structure. The Timminsâ€"Iroquois Falls road, which is really part of the highway, cost $34,647,â€" 63 in the year ending October 31 last, while the trunk road from Norembega east of Cochrane, to Hearst, which will be another extension of the main road. accounted for $184,765.25. All told. there was spent on the Highway and its extensions a sum of $824,868.62. District No. 7, Kapuskasing, shows an expenditure of $156,410.26, of which $77,790.72 was spent on the Cochraneâ€" Hearst trunk road and $71,747.28 went for general maintenance. In District No. 6, Cochrane, the total expenditure is $643,347.¢5, of which $213,046.00 was spent on the highway and $106,974.53 on the Hearstâ€"Cochâ€" raneâ€"Norembega â€" trunk road. The general maintenance in that section cost $181,037.43. 374.29 was spent on the Ferguson Highâ€" way, out of a total of $381,821.32. In this section the Wabi bridge at New Liskeard cost $22,387.28 and the Daneâ€" Boston Creek road cost $10,577, while the total for general maintenance was $50,028.88. In an interview with him, The Jourâ€" nal also quotes him as follows:â€"‘"The wolves are numerous up there, too," he continued. "That is probably due to the fact that deer are very common but the wolves are taking a heavy toll. On several occasions, I came across fresh deer tracks along the railway line and at Mattawa, I learned that 23 carcasses of deer killed by wolves had been seen from the trains between Temiskamine and Mattawa. I secured a number of pictures of slain deer and I intend to make a formal plea, as a sportsman to the proper authorities, to have the bounty on wolves raised and a camâ€" paign instituted for their exterminaâ€" tion." Mr. Severt expressed his pleasâ€" ure at the warmth with which he had been greeted in the various centres through which he had passed. He parâ€" ticularly mentioned Renfrew, Arnprior and Ottawa, where local ski clubs had welcomed him and conferred honorary memberships upon him." Clair Severt, who left Timmins on skiis to make the journey to Ottawa in fourteen days, has shown that the trip can be done within the limit set. He left Timmins on Feb. 21st and arâ€" rived in Ottawa on Tuesday, March 5th at 4.45 p.m., less than 13 days from the start. He made the journey, all but some 57 miles from Pembroke to Cobden, by the ski plan. The 57 miles in question were travelled by freight. Heâ€"was troubled with a feeling around his heart and wisely decided to consult a doctor before proceeding further on skiis. The doctor found nothing seriâ€" ous amiss and the journey was comâ€" pleted from Cobden to Ottawa on skiis. As Clair was simply making the trip as a holiday event and for the sport in it and to promote interest in skiing, and as there was no wager or reward conâ€" cerned, he was free to do as he wished in the matter. In any event he showâ€" ced that the trip could be made as he. said, and that travel by skiis was pracâ€" tical for the distance. In the last two issues the trip by Clair Severt has been covered in The Advance. The last section of the jourâ€" ney last week was uneventful, except as noted here. Clair was given a great reception at Ottawa, being welicomed by Mayor Artiur Ellis and the Ottawa Ski Club. In commenting on the recâ€" ception The Ottawa Journal last night said in part:â€"*"Severt is a tall, young man of wiry builld. His countenance is bronzed by exposure to the winds and cold and glows with vigor and health. He was dressed in a blue skiâ€" ing outfit and carried a canvas pack sack siung across his shoulders. Emâ€" blems of the Porecupine Ski Club, Timâ€" mins, of which he is captain; the Renâ€" frew Ski Club and the Ottawa Ski Club, of which he is an henorary member, were displayed on his windbreaker.

Crown Attorney S. A. Caldbick conducted the prosecution at the police court, while Mr. Raiche was solicitor for the defendant. After the evidence of two or three witnesses had been held, Rickard entered the box in his own behalf.
