Choose your set without delay, Toronto The Hunters Paradise North of Moose Factory The following is an editorial from The Toronto Mail and Empire last week:â€" "New railways built into unknown or unsettled districts have a habit of deâ€" veloping traffic unexpected in both quantity and character. That was the history of the Temiskaming and Norâ€" thern Ontario, and a similar developâ€" ment may follow the extension to the shores of James Bay. To begin with, hunters‘ .bara,dise is reported to have been found about sixty miles north of Moose FPactory. Messrs A. W. Young superintendent, and William King, of the Hollinger Mine, accompanied by an Indian guide, reached the place in motor canoe about a fortnight ago in search of Canada‘s great game bird. the wild goose. It proved to be all that the Indian had described, and more. The sight of these birds rising and \sinking to the water is compiared to vast area of immense waves. The party were able to bag many of the Caâ€" nadian kings of the air and also severali different kinds of wild duck. They stated that there are thousands of prairie chickens in the Far North, and. lthat fish are plentiful in the rivers, while in James Bay are herrings and whitefish. Black ducks also are plentiâ€" \ful and much larger than any in the south. The Porcupine Advance says so tmuch interest has been aroused by the | trip of Messrs Young and K}ng that ten M dhe t .2 , We 100 5 M ME NC Cl 00000 n c h or a dozen young sportsmen of Timâ€" mins and district are planning to join in a trip to the James Bay area next year. The trip will not be so difficult then because the railway will be comâ€" pleted to Moose Factory and already this much traffic is waiting for it and, n> doubt, will be followed by much more." Barrie Examiner:â€"That there should pa a small history dealing with the : fsounding and settlement of every counâ€" ' ty in the province prepared and dis-1 tributed by the Department of Eduâ€". cation was one of the resolutions adoptâ€" ‘ ed at the annual meeting of the Boards of Trade of Ontario.

After more than thirty years‘ fame as makers of evaporated milk "from ccntented cows," the Carnation Comâ€" pany, of Seattle, Wash., OconomowoC, Wis., and Aylmer, Ont., recently comâ€" pleted consolidations on the Pacific coast which brings it into the whole milk producing and cereal manufacturâ€" ing fields as well, according to an anâ€". nouncement by Mr. W. W. Harte, Onâ€" tario representative. _ Vigorous sales efforts on evaporated milk and Carnaâ€" tion cereals will eventually be launched throughout the United States and Canâ€" ada, Mr. Harte continued. A feature the public will instantly recognize is the change in the corporate name from the |Carnation Milk® Products Company to the Carnation Company. UR ND uEt "The most notable asquisition of the | recent consolidations was the acquirâ€" ing of the Albers Brothers Milling Comâ€" pany of San Francisco," said Mr. Harte. "This company had built up an enviâ€" able reputation for breakfast cereals and fine flours on the Pacific coast from vancouver to San Diego, but it was without distribution east of the Rockâ€" ies. Under our direction, and by wideâ€" spread advertising campaigns in newsâ€" 'lpapers and other media, we expect to introduce these ‘flours and cereals, throughout North America, making Carnation Flaked Wheat and other products as well known in Halifax and Jacksonville and in between as they were in California. Carnation also acâ€" quired some twentyâ€"three large milk distributing plants in the west and | several lesser evaporated milk factories. arnation Milk Company Expands Field of Work "Unofficial tabulations of sales for the first eight months of 1930 point to good year for this institution. The inâ€" creasingly popular use of evaporated milk for first eight months of 1930 point to a good year for this institution. The increasingly popular use of evaâ€" porated milk for baby feeding is one of the reasons for our greatly increased business."

ONTARIO the METHODS OF THE ASSAYING OF GOLD ARE DESGRIBED Interesting Facts and Figures on the Science of Metailurgical Chemistry and Assaying Given to Sudbury Club. Much interesting data in regard to assaying gold ore was given recently by Warren Davis, B.A., in an address to the Sudbury Rotary Club. Among other things said by Mr. Davis, as quoted by the reports of the Rotary Club meeting was the followâ€" ing in the way of introduction:â€""No man can see even two or three ounces of gold disseminated through a ton of ore, yet this is very high grade ore, and where gold is visible no assay is required to inform the finder of the richness of the sample. In such cases only the amount of such material is important. It is my secret that such samples are usually the smallest sent in for me to assay." "The assaying of a sample 1I0r gOIQ is one of the simplest and most accuâ€" rate of gravimentric determinations," the speaker pointed out. "We all hear about the scarcity of gold and its effect ‘ on the value of other commodities and | yet we hardly ever see any, except that which we see in alley form in jewelâ€" ler‘s window. As a pure metal gold is extremely heavy and soft. It could be | a very useful metal in alloy form but its beauty and scarcity have led men to priz8 it above all other metals and to use it to stabilize the fluctuations of the relative value of other commodities. ! The leaders of world industry have | !given gold a standard value of $20.67| ‘per Troy ounce. All other values are. relative to this. So when copper falls: to 10 cents a pound it only means that | the buyer will only give one pound of gold in exchange for 3,000 pounds Of copper. "We do not report gold in percentâ€" age, as in the case of the base metals, because of the scarcity of samples carâ€" rying even as much as 1â€"100 part of one per cent. Its value is based on the number of Troy ounces so wE report the number of ounces Troy per ton of avorda 1pois. M 1nd /R .V . Ne d on onl o 000 0C "practically all base metals can be i oxidized and in the presence of intense | 4 heat from a gas or oil flame will be| . carried away by a very common and cheap acid, silica. This acid is not liquid and therefore cannot be put up in bottles but is solid and operates most efficiently when all other materials are in a liquid state. Silica generally O¢â€" curs in nature associated with gold in the form of quartz so that to rid himâ€" seif of it the assayer must add its deadly enémy, a strong base such as caustic soda, washing soda or lye. What I he does is to simply set up a minature I smelter in which he drives all his meâ€" tals except gold into the slag. But he would have a hard time finding a bit of gold among SO much slag so he arâ€" ranged to provide the gold with a body guard of that heavy base metal, lead, and so separate the gold with some ! lead, from the rest of the sample. Furâ€" \‘ther heat treatment will drive all this ‘lead away but the very small piece of | gol1 would still be hard to find, so he i | must be aided by the presence of silver, | along with the gold. Silver is not quite | of the royal family, but we have only to admire a piece of silver plate to realize its aristocratic and royal nature. ‘| It is of royal blood and will stick with | gold through thick and thin. So if the Esample has no silver, the assayer adds ‘some to it and eventually gets his gold in a silver bear, sometimes not much | bigger than a pinhead. The weighing : | of milligrams and 1â€"100 milligrams enâ€" tails the weighing of somethng so small that the assayer often needs a magniâ€" § | fying glass to see what he is weighing. 5 A brick of gold the same size as a 2 ! pound of butter would weigh approxiâ€" ‘ mately 40 pounds and would be worth | about $12,000.
