It is not necessary to go as far from Timmins as the places referred to along the Transcontinenta= to encounter slash that appears to hold a menace. The matter of the disposal of slash is one that requires some attention. In a recent issue The Canadian Forâ€" est and Outdoors took up this question editorially. In this connection The Canadian Forest and OQOutdoors says:â€" "For several years in Canada great emphasis has been placed and much has been written regarding the estabâ€" lishment of great wood using indusâ€" tries. A great deal has been accomâ€" vlished in the perfecting of mill maâ€" chinery for the utilization of wood that reaches the mill with the minimum amount of waste. In other words, conâ€" centrated applied effort will bring about the desired results. "Unfortunately, too little attention has been given in the past to the actual perpetuation of the wood supply itself, without which the mills would cease to function. Today, however, there is a growinz realization on the part of the industry and the public (the cwners of forest land in Canada) that forests, to remain productive, must be managâ€" ed. This idea has a distinct bearing on the question of slash disposal because any scheme of forest mangement musi take care of slash disposal in its orâ€" dinary pllan of sylvicultural treatment of the forest. Dr. Swaine, Dominion Entomologist, calls slash the garbage of the forest. Weâ€"well know that to permit household garbage to accumuâ€" late is a public menace not to be tolerâ€" ated in any well regulated community which has the health of the communiâ€" ty at heart. The same idea should be applied in preserving the health of the forest. Slash or forest "garbage" could be disposed of in the normal plan of management. It becomes then a matâ€" ter of definitely placing responsibility. The plan of disposing of our timber holdings may contain some provisions for the proper disposal of slash but selâ€" dom have these provisions been insistâ€" ed upon. The limit holder having no very definite guarantee that he can abporate a given area for sufficient time Distribution Warchouses at other convenient points Regina, Calgary, V ancouver, Toronto, Moncton and Montreal THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The New Liskeard Speaker last week says:â€""Mr. and Mrs. Sam Korman, jr., of Englehart, have suffered severe loss in the death of their little son, who died Friday morning from burns susâ€" tained the day before. A camp fire had been started near Swastika and in some way the little chap‘s clothes caught fire. The father was badly burned in his frantic efforts to save the life of his son. The little body was taken to the home in Englehart on the Friday market train. The family will indeed have the sympathy of all in this tragedy." h LITTLE BOY DMES FROM BURNS FROM CAMP FIRE to reap more than the initial harvest does not feel called upon to sacrifice possible profitsâ€"in the disposal of slash â€"for the benefit of "the other fellow," and the governments who own the forâ€" est lands. The result is slash strewn areas of cutâ€"over lands where regenerâ€" ation of tree growth is throttled by unhealthy conditions resulting fxom this forest garbage. "Whose responsibility is it? Tins owner of the land, the public or the aperator who holds the privilege of ciutting on a given area for a problemaâ€" tical pericd? If forest garbage or slash is to be disposed of in the ordinâ€" ary process cf sane management and the raw wood product to be stabilized it is imperative that governments make the responsibility clear and then see to it that slash disposal provisitns are carried out to the letter by proper inâ€" spection of operations whether they be handled by the jobbsr or by the comâ€" riny itself."

J. Pommerlau, of Cochrane, The Advancs . made extended reference to the battle '_being waged ‘in this province against noxious weeds. EFFORT BEING MADE TO RID IHE PROVINGE OF WEEDS Weeds are Being Recognized as Bo h Destructive and Unsightly. Genâ€" eral Coâ€"operation Will Mean the Elimination of Weeds. Ontario people, both rural and urban are appreciating the fact mors and more, that weeds are aestructive and unsightly and have no rlace in tis Ontario landscape. Never before nave tarmers in gensral been so careful in keeping down noxiâ€" ous weeds on their farms. During the month of June, it was a common sight to see men, women and children out in the fields, hoeing, cutting, spuddinz and pulling weeds, state officials of the Crops Coâ€"operation and Markets Branch, Parliament Builldings, Toronto. The successful control of the weed situation is very largely due to the united and coâ€"operated effort of farmâ€" ers, weed inspectors, road and railway officials, trustees of public properiy, Women‘s Institutes and Service Orâ€" ganizations all over the province. Weed Control is more apparent in some sections than others but for the most part, real progress is being mads in the Weed War of 1930. In spite of success so far, the battle has only beâ€" Hundreds of country cemeteries have been cleaned up, properly sodded, planted with shrubs and cthorwise put in condition more fitting the last resting place of our esteemed and honâ€" oured forefathers. _ More attention is being paid to school yards, church vyards, highways, township roads, railâ€" roads and public property of all kinds. "New contracts on a basis satisfacâ€" ; tory to both the mines and your comâ€" ’ pany have been signed by Teckâ€"Hughes, :Wright-Hargreaves and Kirkland Lake : GGold Mines. " In the regular statement sent out py \ the Canada Korthern Power Co. this | week to accompany the quarterly dividâ€" j end on preferred stock, the following | pleasing references are made to the ‘business and conditions in the mining ! camnps and other centres in this North: "The physical equipment at all our planis an.d the numerous transmisâ€" sion lines in connection therewith are "The construction of our new plant at the Upper Notch is rapidly apâ€" proaching completion and, it is expectâ€" ed that power from this source will be available before the end of the present year. "In Kirkland Lake a similar condiâ€" tion ptrevails. The expangion proâ€" gramme inaugurated at the Lake Shore Mines is well under way, and the anâ€" nouncement was made recently that the directors of Teckâ€"Hughes Gold Mines will increase the capacity of their mill from 900 to 1250 tons per day. ‘"*‘Construction work on the new mill to replace the one destroyed by fire last fall at the Dome Mines, Limited, is proceeding rapidly, while the directors of McIntyre Porcupine Mines have anâ€" nounced their intention to build a new 2000â€"ton mill. These developments will increase the power load of the proâ€" perties concerned, by about 3,800 h.p. gun. Citizens, communities and orâ€" ganizations will have to continue to give their coâ€"operation and support beâ€" fore the weed menace is finally under control. Every municipality in the province, including towns, cities and villages, now has a weed inspector. The weed "Prospects for the future are most encouraging, as dGdirectors of several mines have announced their decision to increase the capacity of their mills inspector‘s duties are to inspect all proâ€" perty in the municipality, discuss with farmers the best methods of control of noxious weeds and assist the farmer in every way possible in his fight against the weed menace. In extreme cases where weeds in crops are so bad that they are providing a menace to neighâ€" bouring farms, the weed inspector may advise the cutting of the crop. If this is neglected or refused, the inspector may order the crop cut and charge cost of same to the occupant of the land in his taxes. "The gross earnings of the company continue to be quite satisfactory, the toctal amount for the twelve months ending May 31s, 1930, being $3,143,â€" 780.70, as compared with $3,130,843.99 during the corresponding prriod last year. "It gives us much pleasure to forâ€" ward to you herewith, the enclosed check for the dividend earned on the preferred stock you hold in our comâ€" pany, during the quarter ending June 30th, 1930. "Although business conditions in other parts of Canada and other countries have ‘been dull, the indusâ€" ries served by your company have conâ€" tinued in full operation, in some cases increasing their power demands. All occupants of land are expected to prevent the ripening of all noxious weeds in such a manner that seeds will not blow over neighbouring property. Municipal councils are expéected to give the local weed inspector every asâ€" sistance and support in his work. Alâ€" though there are 17 weeds deemed noxious under the Weed Control Act, Sow thistle, which is considered the "world‘s worse weed" is given by far, the most attention. Weed inspectors are determined to keep this weed in control in such a manner that it will not biow from farm to farm as it has dene in tho past. Ontario people have become "weed conscious" and as a reâ€" sult, will not rest content until the weed problem is fully solved and under control.
