g 16 Pine, North Phone 835 § m mmwmmmflmmmmwmmmmwmm Active Development in Baden Township muchenn Expect: Busy Winter, with Much Work to be Centred Around Baden Township, It Is Said. According to information coming from the Matachewan gold camp, it is expected that this winter will see a busy time in that area. Not only is there expected to be increased activity around the immediate district where discoveries have been featured, but at leastone prospector maintains that this Winter will see activity in prospecting and esploratory work centring in Bad- entovmship. Thispartoithefleldis about eight miles mirth and east of the original find, the Ashley claims. taken over by the Mining Corporation of Cobalt. In Baden township work has been going on for a year or more past. being carried on with patience and meeting with gratifying success ac- cording to all accounts. There are several parties at work in Baden town- ship and these have great faith in their claims and are proving their faith by their works and their claims are proving their worth by the work done on them. Old-time prospectors are said to be inclined to favour the Baden area of Matachewan. One correspond- ent writing from Matchewan this week says in regard to the work in Baden township:â€" 0"...o ‘D‘ ‘Itnuo~ 0“ Q‘ “Many veins have been uncovered during the season with some high gold assays. 0n the “Crawford" pronerty one vein was discovered this season which has been trenched and traced for a distance of 800 feet. This vein is considered one of the best on this group of claims and it is the intention of the syndicate to sink a shaft this winter. The vein gave an average as- say of over $17 to the ton and grab sainples ran as high as $45.

And here is mer- chandise of first quality, now marked at the lowest prices in years nect with the motor road being bifllt by the Ontario government to me. Ashley mine. \ “The main vein from the Crawford gmup runs northeast and southwest, and strikes through “Belt Lake" to the west and on to the “Thompson" group or claims. Recently this vein was un- covered on the Thompson group and camps were built ready {or a continu-i ance of the work through the coming] winter. The Thompson group consists. of 23 claims. a great deal of work has. been done, and arrangements are nowl being made to finance further work for the coming winter. There is talk of a diamond drill going into this property. 1 "To the west and north of the Thompson group is a block of six claims known as the Shield group. A vein that measured 12 feet in width was found on this group in the late summer and was trenched and traced for over 1,000 feet and the vein panned gold in several places. No word has been -re- ceived yet of assays. I: is reported this group will also be working after the freeze-up. “The Baden-Powell Syndicate hold- ing a block of six claims adjoining the Thompson and Crawford groups to the south, over which one of the breaks from Belt Lake crosses. is at the present time arranging its financ- ing in Toronto and will be one of the aggressive prospects this winter. Their veins are mostly in low ground and it is much easier and cheaper to fol- low them in subzero weather. “To the north and east of the Shields and adjoining the Crawford property on the west lies a group of ten 'claims owned by Walter Penly and his part- ners. A great deal or work was done on the group during the summer and the veins from the Crawford property were picked up and trenched through a swamp for some distance. A camp was built near the workings and it is the intention of Penly and his partners to continue following the veins through the low ground after the freeze-up. There are many other groups iKAPUSKASING ORGANIZES i COMMITTEE FOR RELIEF WORK throughout the western half of the township of Baden who have made some fine vein discoveries durmg the summer months but the coming winter premises to show some very important developments. Considerable staking has been done during the past month in Baden township, one group staking 15 claixns to the south of the Baden- Powell group." Because of the many cases of need in the town and immediate district the town of Kapuskasing has organized a citizens’ relief committee and is now asking for cash donations to carry on the work of relief planned. It is in- tended to distribute Christmas baskets to families in need in the town, after the manner of the 869d work of the Timmins Charity Turkey Stag. Sunday afternoon shortly after four o‘clock the Timmins fire brigade had a call to the Goldale townsite which is outside the town limits and has no available hydrants for. use. The first call came in to the fire hall by tele- phone, someone noticing the fire in progress in a house up near the Fesser- ton mill. Almost immediately after- wards someone else turned in an alarm for Box 42, and the brigade went at once to the scene of the fire. It was no: possible for the firemen to do very much on account of the lack of facili- ties for getting water. The house where the fire started was well ablaze and little was possible to affect the fire. It was prevented from spreading to neighbouring places, and that. of course, was something. A quantity of furniture was removed from the house before the flames reached proportions to make further work along this line impossible. The house itself was a. complete loss. HOUSE BURNED DOWN AT THE GOLDALE TOWNSITE SUNDAY THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Wilfred H. Gauley, of Toronto. has arrived in town to take charge of the Cm'tis Optical omce here. Mr. Gauley has had wide experience in the optical field having had responsible positions with the Hudson‘s Bay Company at Winnipeg, The Ontario Optical 00. of Toronto. and the Avison Optical 00.. of Branttord. I Last week the town council received la letter from unemployed men in town asking for work and relief. The letter was signed by seventy-five, chiefly men iwith foreign names. The council 1agreed to meet the men concerned in [a special committee meeting on Friday evening last to see what could be done and what the exact situation was. The meeting was duly held last Friday evening, Councillor Chateauvert being voted to the chair. The men were pre- sent in numbers, most of the seventy- flve signing the letter to the council being present with some others. It developed that many of the men con- cerned had been provided with bush work but had failed to keep it. return- ing to town and their places being taken ’by others. The committee made it plain to the men that while Tim- min-s was anxious that none of the citizens of the town should sufier any hardship and was doing its best to pro-; vide for all the citizens here, there} were limits beyond which the townl could not go. Men had to help them- selves as well as being helped, and the town at present had about all it could do to look after its own unemployed without making any special provision for transients. When the spokesman was asked to explain definitely what he expected further than what the town was already doing he was not able to do so. Councillor Richardson made it clear that the town had done all that could be expected, and more, _to help along under the situation. Mayor Drew explained that the town owed its first duty to the citizens and that it was trying its best to carry out that duty. Many of the men in‘the dele- gation were resident in the town only a short time. The result of the meet- ing in a word was to the effect that the town had been doing its best and would continue to do so. but that no special obligations would be undertaken for transients. Married men and citizens of the town would get the first prefer-' ence as in the past. TOWN COUNCIL CONSIDERS CASE OF THE UNEMPLOYED find they will have time enough to figure out the amount of humour in such idiocy. Not only does. a, false fire alarm mean cost to the town, but it also implies danger to the firemen in their response to the call. There are so many things liable to happen to firemen in the rush to rwpbnd to a call that no one but a nit-wit would be foolish enough to call out the brigade to any unnecessary call. This makes several deliberate false alarms this year and though luck has favoured the fools thus far, there is sure to be the eventual slip-up, when the pervented person will be brought to book and properly dealt with.

Feeding and Care of the Dairy Calves in North At three to four weeks of age a mix- ture composed of two parts of finely ground oats, one part of bran. and one of oil cake meal is kept before them commencing with a handful per day and increased gradually to ll pounds daily at twentyâ€"two weeks of age when the skim-milk may be gradually cut off and this grain ration increased pro- portionately. From the age of three to four weeks and on, fine clover hay and clean water are kept before them. If the calves are spring-born they are not exposed to heat and flies, but kept in a dark, cool box until four months of age, after which they may have a night paddock. If fall-dropped calves, they are kept in a clean, bright. comfortable, warm box stall. A limited amount of roots or a mixture of roots and ensilage have also been found very satisfactory. Writing to The Advance from the Dominion Experimental Station at. Kapuskasing this week. A. Belzile says: The best and safest way of improv- ing the milking qualities of a. herd of cows is to raise the heifer calves from the best cows in the herd. However. though good breeding has been found a very important factor in the develop- ment of good dairy cattle, the useful- ness of the cow when mature is also dependent on her proper develomnent starting the day she is born. The following method used at the Dominion Experimental Station has been found very satisfactory and cap~ able of developing strong healthy heif- ers The calves are removed from the cow at birth unless they are weak and unable to drink or unless the cow‘s udder is severely caked. The mother‘s milk for the first four days at the rate of eight to ten pounds divided in three feeds is the first feed they receive. For the first three weeks whole milk is giv- en twice daily and the quantity is iii- creased gradually but overfeeding should be avoided. A safe rule is al- ways to keep the calf a little hungry. At three weeks of age, the calves are gradually changed from whole to skim- milk, taking one to two weeks to make the change. A fat substitute is then added to take the place of the butter fat which has been removed from the milk. Flaxseed jelly has been found one of the best substitutes to use, which is made by boiling a pound or flaxseed in a gallon of water until a thick jelly is formed. While the change from whole milk to skim-milk is made, a. tablespoonful of jelly is add- ed to the milk, increasing gradually until at one month old a half-cupful is fed at each feed.

This party spent sever- al days at Moose Factory, camping on Hazy Island. just opposite the Anglican mission. Gifts of this sort for God’s work are highly appreciated by all con- cerned in church work. Other visitors have kindly promised an organ for our Moose Harbour church and some kind visitors from Ottawa have already donated a fine superheterodyne radio to the Anglican Indian Residential school. We thank our good friends for this very acceptable gilt." First Automobile to Visit Moose Harbour Moose Harbour long ago was visited by airships. This year the railway reached the northern port on James Bay. Recently an automobile reached thereâ€"the first evenâ€"so . perhaps. Moose Harbour may now feel that it has reached the limit of modem hu- man happiness. or. perhaps. otherwise. The story of the first automobile to visit Moose Harbour is thus told by the Moose Factory correspondent of The Kapuskasinl Northern Tribune:â€" “Things are very quiet just now at Moose Factory and Moose Harbour. Most of the men working on the railâ€" way seem to have retired for the win- ter and little or no tramc is being run on the steel. Last week, however, gra- vel was brought down to Moose and laid in the ground for a station. site. No doubt the buildings will be up be- fore long. and we trust a government post office will be the next on the scene. This would satisfy a long-felt need in this hitherto isolated centre.” Other items in regard to Moose Har- bour and Moose Factory are given by the correspondent of The Northern Tribune as follows:â€" Christmas will soon be here, only nineteen shopping days away.

Of course. this is nothing to what has happened in this North Land. Some years ago there was a dag" caught in a bear trap 'in Tisdale. The ani- mal gnawed the leg off so as to allow it to escape from the trap. 'I'nc dog. as soon as it was freed fmm the trap. at once went to work and made a proper amputation of the limb. A lit- tle bark kept the wound from festering. Theanimal with the three legs result- ing from the accident was said to be epic to run a quarter faster than the ordinary dog. This claim was never formally tested out, however, as the animal moved to Sault Ste. Marie as soon as the second amputation was performed, and so there is no reliable data as to what actually happened to the animal, or whether it ever lived at NAMES OF CHILDREN Ml’ST BE IN BY MONDAY, DEC. 71'“ “Cannes we still ptying the waters at Moose and the freeze-up deleys.
