"Eight fit-looking young citizens of St. Mary's arrived home on Monday after three months labour on road con- struction in the northern waods. The lads look fine and fit. Apparently the crisp winter air and outdoor employ- ment, with good appetites and plenty of food agreed with them. One of the boys told the Journal-Argus yesterday that he had gained 24 lbs. in weight since he left here fourteen weeks ago. “The ten St. Marys lads were all in the same camp, technically known as Camp LP. 4, but dubbed by the boys, Ravenburg, owing to its location on the :hores of Raven Lake. Every four miles for hundreds of miles there was a camp, each housing a hundred or so men who were employed on clearing a right-ofâ€"way for a section of the pro- posed Trans-Canada highway. Camp L1 4 was near Bonheur on the CPR. about a hundred miles north-west of Port Arthur. "There were about 125 men at Camp LI 4 with about 35 buildings in the camp. The men were housed in frame shacks, each accommodating as many as eight. Everything was comfortable thought it took steady stoking to keep the shacks at an even heat with soft wood at times when the thermometer dipped at thirty and forty below. The men received thirty cents an hour for their work, for a. time working eight hCurs and for the last few weeks'six hours.

Here is a car that was buil: by the best informed engineers to meet the weather and road conditions prevailing throughout Canada and to do so with the greatest measure of efficiency and economy. The new refinements and improvements. including the popular ignition starting switch, the all-enclosed free wheeling unit. new style upholster- ing and many internal mechanical ad- vantages are but a few of the points that will be explained by competent attendants. ”It is our desire that every boy and girl of high school age, and every mo- torist, and his wife, will see our dis- plays and feel free to give our cars the closest inspection. The more questions they ask, the more'we will be pleased,“ said Phil. J.

It is a foregone conclusion that the parents will not miss seeing these truly Canadian products. being interested in the craftmanship of Canadian work- men. the skill of Canadian engineers and the benefit which results from pa- tronizing a company that pioneered many of the industries that make an» tcmcbile supplies in Canada.

Up to that date the total capital expenditure on development and equip- ment had been 1.529.000 pounds ster- ling. Last year development bad, to be temporarily sub-ordinated to the com~ pletion of the plant and preparing the mine for production. As a result. only part of the. 234.300 tons of ore crushed was replaced by new development. Consequently. the ore reserve was 150,- 000 tons lower for the year at 3,750,000 tons. Timmins will be interested and sym- pathetic to Kirkland Lake police in one of their latest activities. Th 3 Kirk- land Lake police at present are mak- ing a determined effort to curb the smo- king of cigarettes by youngsters. In this work they are asking the co-cvpera- tion of parents and others, and they should receive the fullest support. Timmins has suffered considerably from this evil and the police here are cons- tantly at watch to stop youngsters smoking cigarettes. Boys going to school soon injure, their health and mentality by indulging in smoking. One school teacher in Timmins once said that he could tell when a boy was smoking cigarettes by the way the boy would fall back in his studies. The looks of the lad and his inability to study and get along would give him away. This same teacher from a very wide experience said that he had never known a boy who used cigarette: who was able to get along at school. There is nerhans good reason to belieVe that least 285. per ton (judging by the es- timated value of the ore reserve), while costs may be further brought down from about 195 to under 185 per ton. Thus profits should exceed 360,000 pounds sterling per _annum, on which the royalty payable under the lease will be from 10 to 15 per cent., according to the ratio of profit to gold yield. To Present Hockey Trophies, April 29 East Geduld Mines Limited, the South African mine in which Dome Mines holds a substantial interest, in its fifth annual report shows a not working loss of 35.000 pound sterling for the preliminary period of produc- tion. July to December 31. For each of the past two months, however, a. work- ing profit has been made of over 16,000 pounds sterling from the treatment of over 50,000 tons of ore. yielding over 255. worth of gold per ton. The plant has been designed to treat 60,000 tons monthly when working at capacity.

SEEKING T0 CURB SMOKING BY YOUNG BOYS AND GIRLS is perhaps good reascn to belieVe u cigarettes do not do adults much 3 ions harm. but the case is altogether different in regard to growing boys. The police in Tlmmins have tried to step injury to immature lads through cigarettes by going after any dealers selling tobacco to miners as well as watching the lads themselves. In Kirk- land Lake it is intended to centre on the source of supply and severe penalties will be imposed on anyone giving or selling cigarettes to children. It should be remembered that parents can not lawfully supply cigarettes to their own children. The law is against the giv- ing or selling of cigarettes to children no matter who the giver or seller may be. In view of the fact that it is gen- erally believed that cigarettes are harm- ful to growing children. it would be thought that parents would do all pos- sible to guard their youngsters in this matter, but if they do not. the law should be enforced, as they aparently intend to enforce it in Kirkland Lake for the benefit and protection of the children. ‘ Hunt'mgdon Gleanerâ€"Ever since a portrait of George Eastman was hung in the Eastman School of Music. at Rochester, N.Y.. a light had been kept burning continuously over the picture.

Dance The total capitalization of 563 pro- ducing mines in Canada at the end of 1931 aggregated $768,777,783, of this total $686,577,099 was represented by common stocks. With respect to both common stock and preferred stocks and bonds, etc., the copper-gold and nickel-copper group led with $194,460,211 common stock and $195,887,272 total capitaliza- tion. The gold stocks ranked second, with $167,912,206 common stock and $168,243,906 total capitalization. In the distribution of ownership, Canadians occupy a. dominating posi- tion, with a total of $571,543,459, or 74,35 p.c. The United States ranks se- cond with; $151,945,785 or 19.76 p.c. Great Britain third with $42,054,133 or 5.45 p.c. and others $3,234,406 or .44 p.c. Some interesting figures have been tabulated in regard to the stocks of Canadian mines. With respect; to common stock hold- ings only, Canada also holds first place by a. very wide margin, with 73,27 p.c. of the total.

OF STOCK OF MINES HERE- Those who keep poultry or intend to keep them as a hobby or a I’veuhood will be turning their thought; to the raising of baby chicks now that the things of nature are showing signs of the return of spring. The first consideration. of course. is to secure chicks from a reliable some that. the buyer will know he has chicks of health and vigour and of a. strain that is bred to lay. Whether you incubate your chiclr at home by natural or artificial means or buy them from a hatchery or poul- try farm matters little so long as ycu know they are from healthy vigorous They should then be given water with the chill of! it, followed by a little grit. Fin‘e.._clea". sharp sand sprinkled ar- ound is splendid for this purpose. A reliable chick mash can then be given, spread on clean paper and always fed dry. Allow chicks about ten minutes to eat. Repeat this feeding every three hours. From fifth day leave mash in sanitary feeding homers before them at all times, and an abundant supply of clear water and grit. Green feed such as sprouted oats, finely-chopped lettuce or onion tops. etc.. should be fed liberally. Fine grain fed in the litter will give them exercise. At about six weeks old they should be gradually changed to a growing mash and a lar- ger grain feed. With the above sample rules obser- ved and sanitation carefully practised anyone should be able to raise chicks with little trouble and a minimum loss. If free range where poultry have not. run before is available pullets will greatly benefit through having access to it. Many poultry farms and Government approved hatcheries are oflering stock with the desired breeding. and with the co-operation of the Dominion Govern- ment are able to put out stock that are not surpassed anywhere in the world. Canadian poultry are world-re- nowned. (Written for The Advance by an Expert) When a. chick is hatched it has 9- nough nourishment for 48 to 72 hours and should in no case be fed anything before it is at least 48 hours old.
