Canadian National Railways to Try Experiment at Cochrane, Kapusâ€" kasing and Nakina This Year as Part of Its Annual Proâ€" gramme. The Temiskaming and Northern Onâ€" tario Railway is justly noted for the beautiful garden plots at stations along the line. At Latchford, Haileybury, New â€" Liskeard, Englehart, Swastika, Porquis Junction, Timmins, and many of the smaller stations along the line the garden plets are certainly noteâ€" worthy. Some of the displays of flowâ€" ers and shrubs are really remarkable and do much to give travellers a favâ€" ourable opiinion of this country. Judgâ€" ing from despatches sent out from Toâ€" ronto this week the Canadian National Railways is planning something similar in the way of garden spots all along the line from Cochrane west. If the plans prove as successful as those carâ€" ried through by the T. N. 0. the reâ€" sult will be pleasing to travellers and a good advertissment for the North Land. In reference to the beautificaâ€" tion of stations along the CN.R. the despatches say that preparations are under way for the distribution of 200,â€" 000 bedding plants and annuals, and 2,000 shrubs and trees as the C.N.R. commsnces its yearly programme of beauty treatment for stations and erounds in the central region. n Distribution is made from Stratford and Montreal, where the National sysâ€" tom has its own greenhouses. It will require 12 cars to distribute the emâ€" bryo blossoms between Riviere Du Loup, Que., on the east and Armstrong, Ont., on the west. Elcrhm hundred and fifty stations will benefit by the beautiâ€" fication programme. To provide a greater variety of blocom and more perâ€" manence shrubs and perennial plants are used wherever possible. Along the northern line of the C.N.R. an experiment is being . conducted. Kapuskasing, Cochrane and Nakina stations are being concentrated on. Shrubs, trees and perennials are being rlanted there with especial care, and it is hoped to demonstrate that these can be used in spite of rather severe climate conditions.

J. D. MacLean, town engineer, reâ€" presented the town of Timmins at the meeting of the representatives of mun.â€" cipalities, mines and other industries and interests of the North Land adjaâ€" cent to the T. N. O. Railway to disâ€" cuss the rates for electric power in the North. After considerable discussion the gathering passed the following reâ€" solution, which was moved by Reeve sommerville, of James township, and seconded by Councilior Robitaille, of Cobalt, and adopted unanimously :â€" "Whereas power and lighting rates charged at present in the North Counâ€" try are considered excessive, and "Whereas reasonable power rates would be of great assistance to the mining industry, both gold and silver, cnabling mines now operating to mine lower grade ore, employ more labour and prolong the life of the mine and would enable properties now dormant to operate, and "Whereas reasonable rates are necesâ€" sary to the farmers in the district to enable them to enjoy some of the priâ€" vileges of southern Ontario farmers, and "Whereas rates to the ordinary nouseholder and municipality are exâ€" cessive, and "Whereas other industries , Aare handicapped and new ones have been prevented from establishing in Northâ€" ern Ontario owing to excessive power rates. "Be it moved, that the provincia‘ government be petitioned to take the necessary steps to assure the North Country of a substantial reducticn in rates." O. line to North Bay and go from there to Sudbury. The mayor of Cobalt sent out circular letters to ‘boards of trade and municipalities in the North Land suggesting ‘such a plan. Later, howâ€" ever, it was decided that this might not be the most feasible plan and that the best plan would be to petition the Govâ€" ernment for a reducticn of rates and allow the Government to adopt whatâ€" ever procedure might seem best. To secure the. coâ€"operation of all the municipalities, mines and other interâ€" ests concerned a meeting was called for last Thursday at Englehart. e meeting at Englehart last Thursâ€" day was the result af efforts made a Cobalt to find some pillan to secure reâ€" ductions in power nates. At first 1: was thought that the result could be obtained through having the new power transmission line from Abitib‘ Canyon to Sudbury follow the T. N. The meeting last Thursday voted Mayor Fred Sullivan, of Cobalt, to the chair, and discussion commenced on the matters that the gathering had been called to consider. There was reference to the route which might be followed in bringing tpower from the Abitibi Canyon to Sudbury. Jc¢ohn Anâ€" derson, of Krugersdorf, said that he could see no reason why a power line shculd not be run along the T. N. O. as well as directly across country to Sudbury. There was a general opinion amone those present along the line that the Government should be asked to deal with this part of the North along similar lines to the arrangement made for Sudbury. J. W. McBain, clerk of the township of Teck, said «that the municipality he represented took the attitude that the Government had the remedy in its own hands and that it was not the part for the North to dicâ€" tate the particular plan that might be put upon the idea of urging relief from high rates. A similar opinion was exâ€" pressed by Mr. MacLean, of Timmins. Despatches in regard to the meeting say that an unexpected feature of the méeting was the appearance there of Walter Hill, representing the Temisâ€" kaming Board of Agriculture, who exâ€" plained that that body had gone on record as heartily endorsing any atâ€" tempt that might be made to lower power costs in the North and in securâ€" imng an extension of power services to the farming sections. Mr. Hill told the gatherinz that the farmers realized the necessity of cheay power for this counâ€" try and they felt that it was about time that the settlers in the agricultural secâ€" tions had the benefits of power for their farms, as was the case in old Onâ€" tario. President C. W. Wright of the Norâ€" thern Ontario Associated Boards ¢f Trade read extracts from the report of the Hydro engineer who, three years ago, made an investigation into the rates being charged by the power comâ€" pany for domestic power used in the towns of Cobalt, New Liskeard and Haileybury, and which had shown how the company, on a valuation Gf $82,000 placed on its system in Cobalt, had made a profit of moere than 26 per cent. in that town. Mayor Sullivan, the chairman of the meeting pointed‘ out that he felt that lower power rates would rrolong the life of the mining camps and for this and other reasons felt that the Govâ€" ernment shcould be asked to relieve the district in the matter of power rates. One despatch from Englehart says:â€"| "On behalf of mining companies, it was claimed that rates now charged were: unreasonable and that while for arguâ€" ment‘s sake, it might be admitted the. rates to mines may havse been fair in the earlier days, they were unfair now | that mining was a permanent industry., Investigation had shown, according ~to' one delegate, that the rates of the Powâ€" | er Corporation were baised cn its ability Carl Rheinhardt, of Cobalt, thought the peak load or standâ€"by charges very and that they should be eased off. to supply the power by steam and still make a profit. While figures relating to the cost of power to Kirkland Lake mines were not submitted to the forâ€" mal sitting, they were available for inâ€" dividual inspection. They showed that approximately 12,000 horsepower was being taken by the different mines in that camp, and that Kirkland Lake Gold Mines were paying on basis of $82 60 per horsepower consumed per ' annum, Teckâ€"Hughes at $59.62, Wrightâ€" Hargreaves at $72.49 and Sylvanite at |$$'77.42. These figures were independâ€" ent of the municiphl load. The mine rates were based, according to the conâ€" tracts, on $4.63 per horsepower per month for each of the first 5,000 horseâ€" power; $2.78 for each next 5,000 h.p.; $1.85 for each of the next 5,000 h.p. and $1.39 for each of the next 5,000 h.p. Ten per cent. was allowed for prompt payment, but it was stated that no one | mine ran over the 5,000 horseppwer : mark." There were no representatives presâ€" ent from the power company and so of the argument on that side of the case was presented. The resqlution as given above was the outcome of the discussion and consideration given in the matter. The Advance is of the opinion that was given in these columns year or so ‘agoâ€"that the Hydro Commission of Ontario will eventually take over the whole distribution of power in this North Land and that rates will then no doubt be adjusted so as to be more equitable for all parts of the North. The resolution may help on the Govâ€" ernment‘s action in the matter. From statements credited to Premier Ferguâ€" son, however, it would appzar that he has in mind a rilan for the Governâ€" ment adjusting power rates all through the North. PORCUPINE LADS sShKOWING GO0O0D BUSINESS INSTINCT According to the reports made by motorists who have used the Timminsâ€" Pcorquis Junction road this year there are a courtls of young boys living near Connaught who have the moneyâ€"makâ€" *ng instinet all right. About mile or so from Connaught there has been a rather bad mudhocle on the road. Most of the cars trying to get through from Porcupine to Porquis, or vice versa, have found this mudhole very difficult to negotiate. Indeed, most cars give up the attempt in short order and start to lcck around for some assistance. This is where the young lads come in. One of the lads is just about eight years old and the cther younger. But they know how to plan to make money and they have been making money all right. The lads have a team of big horses, tegether with chains and the cther equipment necessary. They stand «by without a word until a motorist calls for help out of the mudhole. As soon as the call for help comes they are right on the job. They tackle the job of pulling motor cars out of the mudâ€" hole in very effective and skilful‘ fashâ€" 2223 HE smart, new, Penmans Double "V" Heel Hosiery is made under special rights granted to us in Canada.

When the job is done and the car on solid ground again the young lads collect a dollar for their work in pulling the moâ€" torists ‘out of that mudhole, then they sit back and wait for the next victim.
