ALLâ€"STEEL REFRIGERATOR ANCING FROM 11 TO 3 Held in the Canada Northern Power Corporation, Limited WHY BUILDING GOOD ROADS S PAYING INVESTMENT The following is an editorial from the last issue of The Sudbury Star, and is well worth consideration:â€" "The province of Quebec believes in good roads. In 20 years Quebec has NORTHERXNX ONTARIO POWER COMPANY, LIMITED XORTHERXN QUEBEC POWER COMPANY, LIMITED GREAT NORTHERN POWER CORPORATION, LDHTED General Electric Refrigerator dealers are in a position to offer exceedingly reasonable terms, well within the average family budget. quarantees Controlling and Operating spent $120,000,000 on road improveâ€" ment and maintenance, and is now spending about $15,000,000 a year. There are about 2,000 miles of hardâ€" paved roads; the building programme contemplates adding 1,000 miles within the next few years,. and there are some 11,500 miles of gravel and macadam roads. 4j "The roads department has been keeping tab on the American tourist trafic, whose volume isg overned largeâ€" ly by the quality of roads. This year, to September 1, 22 out of 30 entry ports reported the entry of 334,459 American automobiles driven by tourists, an inâ€" crease of 21 per cent. over the number in the same period of 1929â€"and this in spite of the fact that 1929 touched the peak of prosperity, while 1930 was a year of depression. "Figuring only three persons to A car, this meant 1,000,000 Aemican touâ€" rists entering Quebec in eight months; and while the amount which each spent is hard to estimate, it is easy to see that the total ran into tens of millionsâ€"a pretty good dividend on an investment of $120,000,000. In fact, it may almost be said that the American tourists lured to Quebec by scenery, cliâ€" mate, historic associations and good roads are paying the entire road bill of the province. "Are good roads worth while? There‘s the answer." The Royal Winter Fair directors are optimistic about agricultural conditions in Canada for the coming fall and winâ€" ter. In a message to leading breeders and producers who as exhibitors at the Royal do much by their unswerving example to establish steady confidence in Canadian agriculture, the manageâ€" ment points out that "despite dry weaâ€" ther conditions in several places, Canâ€" adian feeding stuffs are in more than average volume. The hay crops everyâ€" where are considered satisfactory and in some parts exceptionally good." The message is extremely optimistic and reâ€" veals that the directors of the Winter Fair are making plans for an even greater exhibition this year. North Bay Nugget:â€"It is estimated that drinkers in the United States pay some $2,848,000,000 yearly for bootleg liquor. What a dry country!

At our general meeting next Monday these comrades can come forward and pay the fee and be initiated. We exâ€" pect another record night on Oct. 20th as there are several comrades that have not been initiated yet. There will be the usual social hour after the meetâ€" ing. The next eveht will be our dance at Schumacher in the McIntyre hall on Oct. 3ist. â€" Hallowe‘er?® Night. Good prizes are promised for the best cosâ€" tumes, also a lucky door prize. This pleasing event should be well supported. So everyone get out their best masâ€" querade costume and don‘t miss this event. As the display cards state, there will be "Lords, Ladies, Witches and Maidens," and perhaps we will be able to add a butler, baker and sandâ€" wich maker. Nov. lIst will be tag day for poppy campaign and we are not to do this by halves this year. With the assistance of the Ladies of the Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion and the Ladies of the Daughters of England, who have so kindly consented to help us, we exâ€" pect a record tag day, as when the ladies get behind a movement they sure see it through. It will be a lucky citiâ€" zen who misses being tagged on that date, so save all small change and an odd bill or so for tag day, Saturday, Novernber ist. The Order of Moose have kindly ofâ€" fered the Moose hall for headquarters on that date, an offer which we are indeed thankful to accept. The ladies tagging will be supplied with refreshâ€" ments as a day on the streets tagging is certainly hard work without a little refreshment. On Sunday, November 9th we are holding a monster church parade. All military. units are asked to parade along with the Legion. This includes the St. John Ambulance Brigade, Boy Scouts, Cubs, Guides, Red Cross and of course the ladies of the Auxiliary. The Timmins Citizen‘s Band again will head the Legion church parade and I‘m sure we are glad of the support of the band. The band are wholeheartedly with the Legion, an association that we are proud of. The Legion Bugle band will also be on parade and Bandmaster Cherry expects to have an addition of fifes with the bugles on this occasion. The fifes have been ordered and will be here before this letter appears in print. The parade will be split so as all deâ€" nominations can attend their own church, so there is no excuse for keepâ€" ing away. So let‘s show a parade of parades this year, a parade headed by the good old Union Jack, a parade of loyal subjects and good citizens of the Porcupine. The Italian exâ€"soldiers are expected to join us on that date, also on Nov. lith, and I‘m sure we will be glad to have these exâ€"soldiers of the Italian Army (our ally in the great war) with us on this occasion. The Legion in full strength will be a sight worth seeing and the additions to the parade will show a display of loyalty second to none in the Dominion. We have ordered special fine day from the weather man for the church parade so let‘s hope he will fill our order. I might add that we will be pleased also to have our worthy honâ€" crary members with us on this date and on November l1th as we are proud of the support given by these worthy gentlemen. I received our honorary membersi cards and badges this week. They are of a new type which require no stamps. The badge is smaller than the regular | badge but nevertheless it is a badge that the holder may be proud to wear, a badge that shows an association with the Canadian Legion. We were able this week to again do censiderable relief work that had to be quick and the Legion showed how quick it could be in these matters. It seems deplorable to think that any returned soldier should be in want and children hungry in these days. But it is the case. The poor children do not reaâ€" lize the situation; they do not realize that when daddy is out of work, that there is nothing to get food with. And the poor mother, what is her plight? She knows not where to turn, and often CLAIM AGAINST CITY FOR LOSS FROM TOURIST CAMP (From The Simcos Reformer) North Bay Board of Trade has an unusual claim on its hands. It comes from Carroll E. Beatty of Detroit and he wants to be recompensed for loss by robbery while staying at the motor camp where he piaid fifty cents a day for accommodation. Mr. Beatty took nis action on the advice of the Ontario Motor League after he had written the Proviicial Police at Toronto and failâ€" ad to get any action. It is argued that if it is the intention of a town or city to make a charge for the use of its motor camp without providing police protection, the fee should be withâ€" drawn. This Mr. Beatty is apparently no fool. He states in his letter that this complaint "should be made someâ€" one‘s very definite business," if Canaâ€" dlian towns and cities wish to protect ‘hne tourist trade business. It is North Bay‘s next move and the answer will 3e watched with interest. Sudbury Starâ€" From now on deer naving regard for their own safety are advised not to wear caps, hunting coats. trousers and boots, and not to z> about on two legs, or carry a gun or crouch by a runway. The Canadian Legion in the Porcupine sickness comes along at the same time. What burden to carry after giving years of service for King and Country. Here is where the Legion steps in and sees that at least their comrades and their families have something to eat and a roof over their heads. Calls will be heavy upon our relief fund this winter, and the relief comâ€" mittee will have lots of work. In some of these cases the comrades cannot do manual labour; in many cases, they are burnt out by the rigours of war, and can only do light work. What blessâ€" ing it is toâ€"day that the comrades in better circumstances will devote their time to help there unfortunate comâ€" rades and their families. "The Legion Helps Many‘" is no lie, and the cases that one sees at times sure make one thankful that they have health, strength and employment. To see these poor families bravely fighting against hunger, shows the spirit of the _..._â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"-â€"-â€"â€"â€"_""â€"’â€"'-. bull dog breed, the spirit that won the. war. One good thing they have the Legion fighting with them in their hour of need. Some of its members, who are not afraid to again shoulder responsiâ€" bility, shoulder another burden with the same thoroughness as they shouldered the country‘s burdens in the late and other wars. So, when the cagvassers call to canvass for wreaths just stop and think a moment; think what these canvassers represent; think what the soldier did in the wars of the Empire; and dig down in your pocket, dig deeply, and remember the words: "Give and ye shall receive" which is no idle boast. We are offering prizes this year of $25.00 cash for the ist; $15.00 cash for the second; and $10.00 cash for the third; for the best decorated window in the Porcupine, that is decorated with goods supplied this year from the Vetâ€" craft Shops in Toronto, for which the Canadian Legion is the sole distributors. Our worthy honorary member, F. M. Burke, has kindly consented to give us a window display for a week to display the wreaths that we are canvassing to sell. I expect to have number on display before this letter appears in print. The kindness of F. M. Burke is greatly appreciated by the local branch and readily shows his appreciaâ€" tion of what the Legion is doing in the Porcupine. In addition to the ladies, the presiâ€" dent and myself will also take any orders for wreaths. The canvass for wreaths ends on Wednesday next Oct. 22nd, and delivery of the wreaths will be made by the end of October. So, there will be no rush orders this year. The executive committee as a whole are attending to the poppy campaign this year and the orders and all busiâ€" iess will be handled by the secretaryâ€" treasurer of the branch. Special forms have been printed for the canvassers and cheques can be mailed direct to the secretaryâ€"treasurer upon delivery of the wreaths. Foppy Day will also be under the control of the executive, who will renâ€" der the ladies who have so graciously consented to help us every assistance. So we can look forward to record poppy campaign, as when the executive committee gets busy in this Branch they do not do things by half, and every one can be sure of courtesy and assistance at all times. In conclusion don‘t forget the genâ€" eral meeting Oct. 20th, and as a reâ€" minder I will state that those comrades who owe the 2nd and 3rd quarters‘ dues have only 15 more days left before they are struck off the roll of the Canadian Legion, a roll that all exâ€"soldiers should take pride in and never allow their names to be struck off for the paltry sum of ‘$1.00 per quarter. I have just had @ letter from Cenâ€" tral Branch, Toronto, who ask for the transfer of Comrade Elphick.. We are sorry indeed to transfer this valuable member but I mentioned to the Central Branch that I felt sure the transfer was only temporary. Everyone during this campaign do their utmost to spread the Legion spirit in the Porcupine. Spread the spirit around, keep it awake with a view to having every exâ€"soldier in the Porcuâ€" pine a member of Timmins Branch 88, Canadian Legion GE (From The Barrie Examiner) Many local fish "fans‘" are in their glee those days. There has been an exceptionally good run of herring for nearly a week and the fish have been particularly good to two men at least. On Tuesday afterncon Dr. N. W. Rogers and E. A. Williams forgot business worries and spent three hours on the bay off the Raikes property. Their catch totalled more than 100. A few days previous!ly the same two gentlemen did even better work. The jeweller managed to haul in 164 while the docâ€" tor was only some twenty or thirty fish behind. "It‘s great sport," they said. "YÂ¥ou can cattch two on one hook, they‘re so thick, and they are nearly as bis as whitefish."

TTING TWO HERRINGS ON THE ONE HOOK AT BARRIE By the Secretaryâ€"Treasurer The Secretaryâ€"Treasurer Why Not Sheepâ€"Raising for the North Countryv? Rcofercnce has bsen made previously‘ in thes> columns to the suggestion of Hon. John Martin, while Minister of‘ Agriculture, that settlers in this counâ€" try would meet with the best success if they took up specialties Hon. Mr.| Martin was spsaking at Englehart on the occasion he made this suggestion and there was very general recognition of the force in what he said. The speâ€" cial lines he mentioned wore poultry and cattle raising. At the time The Advance thought that sheepâ€"raising might well be added to the list. Some years ago a gentleman on a farm near Charlton made a great success of sheepâ€" raising. The arguments against shsen in this country are all upset when the industry is considered with shepherds as a necessary feature. In connection with the idea of sheepâ€"raising in this country, it is interesting to read an item sent out this week by the Ontario Dz2â€" partment of Agriculture. This item, ‘under the heading, "Rainy River Faâ€" mous for Lamb Production," says:â€" There is possibly no section of Onâ€" tario that has a higher percentags of good shgsep and a lower prrcentage of poor sheep than has tht District of Rainy River. Sheep ratsing therse has increased greatly during the past five or six years. Through the efforts of the Department, purebred sires have been introduced over this period ot time and this, coupled with educational exfension work, has made it possible for the sheep breeders in Rainy River District to market a very high percontâ€" age of choice lambs. Markst lamb fairs have been held in the district for a number of years when between 300 and 400 lambs are annually brought out for exhibition and market purposes. On August 20th last a representative shipment of lambs was made to Winnipeg. These were graded and sold as follows: sold at 74 c. 20 thirdâ€"grads lambs averaging 79 lbs. sold at 62. 183 firstâ€"grade lambs averaging 851 lbs. in Winnipeg sold at 84 c. per pound 10 heavy lambs averaging 100% lbs In addition to these, 96 ewe lambs exhibited at the fair were sold for breeding purposes. There will probably be twenty carâ€" loads of lambs shipped from the disâ€" trict before the season is over. Ths breeders of this section have besn folâ€" lowing the practice of marketing their lambs when ready and, by having their lambs Gdrogriped in March and April shipments have been going forward to the Winnipeg market during July, Auâ€" gust and September, before the big rush of lambs comes on the stockâ€"yards for sale. Sheep breeding in the Rainy River District has filled a great need. Clover hay is produced in abundance and the market for this has usually been not very remunerative. These sheep are carried through in good condition and the farmers, by following the practices of dipping, docking and castrating, coupled with the use of good purebred sires largely of Oxford and Shroptshire breeding have produced a product seâ€" cond to none in the public markets. IT IS WELL THAT THERE ARE MANY SUBSTITUTES FOR WOOD It is reported that nearly all Ottawa Valley lumberman will curtail their operations in the woods this winter owing to still having heavy stocks in their piling yards. One can readily credit the report, for with so many substitutes being found for wood in these days it is not in the same demand it once was. Asbestos shingles are drivâ€" ing cedar shingles from the market. People are building houses of concrete blocks rather than frame structures. No longer is plank employed in the building of sidewalks. There are subâ€" stitutes galore for wood these days, building of sidewalks. There are subâ€" stitutes galore for wood these days, and if by that slackness comes to lumbering cperations there is the comâ€" pensaticn of new industries. It is well that these substitutes have came upon the market before the land was denuded of forest. Cutting o trees has gone on without the planting of new ones. Our policy with regard to fcorests has been a wasteful one. NC thought was taken of the future. They do things in a different way in Euroâ€" pean ccountries, where forests nevel vanish. In the last quarter of a century the wocsdman‘s axe and fire have taken an immense toll of the Canadian forests. It is not long ago that logs and square timber were coming down the Bonâ€" nechere. Today there is no square timâ€" ber floating even in the Ottawa River. All that Renfrewites see of square timâ€" ber today is what passes through here by rail from Egan Estate. And only one lumber firm is cutting it. Happy is this country in being able to find substitutes for wood, especially so since many of the substitutes are fireproof.â€"Renfrew Mercury. Despite depressed economic condiâ€" tions and a season marked chiefly by prolonged drought, the community fall fairs throughout Ontario generally reâ€" port unprecedented attendance and splendid showings of agricultural proâ€" duce. As an individual instance the annual fair in the village of Caledonia, in Haldimand County, drew a patronâ€" azge of 10,000 peowlle, a record for all time. From aimost every fair similar reports have been received, indicating the rural residents of Ontario are takâ€" ing an even keener interest and pride in their own industry than ever before.

Medical authorities state that nearly nineâ€"tenths of the cases of stomach trouble, indigestion, sourness, burning, gas, bloating, nausea, etc., are due to af excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is delayed and food sours, causing the disagreeable symptoms which every stomach sufferer knows so well. Acids in Stomach Cause Indigestion Artificial digestants are not needed in such cases and may do real harm. Try laying aside all digestive aids and instead get from any druggist some Bisurated Magnesia and take a teaâ€" spoonful of powder or four tablets in water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of excess acid and there is no sourness, gas or pain. Bisurated Magnesia (in powder or tablet formâ€"never liquid or mill:) is harmless to the stomach, inexâ€" pensive to take and is the most effiâ€" cient form of magnesia for stomach purposes.
