The adverse met within Holâ€" linger, the disappointment encounâ€" tered at Coniaurum, and the introâ€" duction of uncertainty regarding deâ€" mand for a new mill at McIntyre, are factors which are used as evidence in favour of such a merger. Hollinger Consolidated has a plant which is alone capable of handling close to 7,000 tons of ore daily. This capacity is equal to the average total tonnage handled daily by these several mines during 1928. Moreover, the estimate of ore reserves on Hollinger showed a deâ€" cline which may reasonably reflect a further average decline in tonnage in the near As a matter of fact the Hollinger report has introduced a large amount of food for thought. For instance, the annual report for 1928 shows a production of $10,712.821. The report also shows ore reserves declined to $9,015,304. This makes a somewhat * XIV.

Mr. McCrea gave the deputation a careful hearing and took their data and arguments into close consideration. Any decision in the matter will likely be announced at an early date. change in the license fee to nonâ€"reâ€" sident hunters for deer and small game; the establishment of fish hatchâ€" eries at strategic points, and the reâ€" stocking of lakes and streams. 3y means of a number of letters in the possession of the delegation, these letters being sent in by residents of the North Land who are honestly afraid that the wolves will soon slaughter off all the deer. From these letters it is conservatively estimated that in one section of the province alone there have been some 300 deer killed by wolves in a period of six weeks. One letter emphasized the idea that in another year all the deer in one certain localiâ€" ty would be killed off by the wolves and that when this was accomplished the wolves would turn in and do the same thing to the moose, which are already being killed by wolves in some sections. E. L. Hughes, president of the Onâ€" tario Tourist Trade Association, and M. U. Bates, viceâ€"president, are in Toronto this week as a delegation to impress upon Hon. Chas. McCrea, Minister of Mines and the Fish and Game Dept., the need for early action |to preserve the deer of this province. Messrs. Hughes and Bates saw Hon. Mr. McCrea on Tuesday and ons of their chief arguments in favour of an increase in the wolf bounty in Ontario i was the fact that there is a serious | possibility, indeed a probability, of the deer becoming entirely extinct in Onâ€" tario as a result of the ravages of wolves. To illustrate their facts reâ€" was that the wolf bounty, which is aAt present $15.00, with the return of the pelt, be increased to $50.00, with the Government to retain the hide. This, it is felt, would not only compensate trappers for their time and the loss of the pelts, but would eliminate some of the "red tape" which at present delays the return of the skins to the trapâ€" pers. slaughter of the deer. Previous to the interview with Hon. Mr. McCrea, Mr. Bates told one Toronto newspaperman that they had sounded opinion on the wolif menace question from the Maniâ€" toba boundary to Pembroke and found the country entirely in sympathy with the request that something be done to check the depredations of the wolves. ‘"The people are 100 per cent. for acâ€" tion in the matter," said Mr. Bates. This viewpoint was duly impressed upâ€" on Hon. Mr. McCrea. The suggestion offered by Messrs Hughes and Bates to the Government of carcases of deer lying in the snow.

T. Moisley went more deeply into the proposed organization as it would involve the men behind it and the boys as members. In the past there had been much overlapping and duplication of cost and effort through the multiplicity of calls for various sports. There was difficulty in securâ€" ing ample finances for all of them, and carrying each to success,. To remedy all this it was proposed to bring all junior sports under one supervision. The plan was to have all junior sports conducted under the direction of an executive of business men who would be elected by a group of members ready to pay membership fees of $10.00 per year each, this fee to relieve them from all further calls for the year. The money from the business men taking the $10.00 memberships and from the fees paid by the boys themselves would be ample to carry the sports through the year. A gathering of the boys from 10 to 20 years who were interestâ€" ed in sports had been convened some weeks ago and this large body of boys had gone on record as being heartily During th tion Arm d district The meeting called for Monday evening in the town hall to organize for junior sports was very largely atâ€" tended by representative business and professional men, the hall being fillâ€" ed and all being enthusiastic about the plans proposed.
