Renâ€" frew county. to despatches. the discovery was made last fall by the representatives of a Beachburg syndiâ€" cate while develogprng a feldspar deposit, but secrecy was maintained until spring, when a large group of claims were seâ€" cured before the news was allowed to leak out to the outside world. The discovery is said to be about 20 miles from the town of Pembroke and the despatches we have read emphasize, incidentally the desired location _ of Pembroke as an outfitting point for prospectors and others who contemâ€" plate joining the rush. About the Platinum Found Near Renfrew "Desirable as it is that as many deâ€" posits of such metals as rWatinum be brought to light, for the benefit of uniâ€" nitiated it should be pointed out that discoveries of the rarer metals seldom turn out to be as important as they criginally appear. At the present time, ‘hne production of platinum is far in excess of the demand, and despite the fact that the price has dropped from about $60 to approximately $40 an cunce in the past two years, there are still huge stocks of the metal waiting to be sold. Owing to the fact that plaâ€" tinum finds its chief use in the jewelry trade, it is interesting to note that beâ€" yond a ceortain point it loses a great deal of its value and the demand beâ€" comes less as soon as it enters the chean metal field. to dra metall Great Enthusiasm in the East, but Not so Much in the Sudbury District.

"Few people may be aware of th fact that Sudbury is today the larges platinum producing area in North Am erica, and is probably next to the re public of Colombia, the largest in th world. "Platinum, with its associated metals, palladium, iridium, rhodium and ruâ€" thenium. is produced as a byâ€"product of the Frood ores in such quantities that the production of platinum in Onâ€" tario has been more than doubtful since the Frood mine entered production. Owinz to the fact that the metals appear to be associated more closely with the nickel than with the copper content of the ore, the slimes containing these metals are shipped to England where they are treated in the new Acton plant of the International Nickel Company. not be important.

He has four vounds in his back from a 44 calibre revolver. According to the story told of the affair Paquet left his own dwelling about eight o‘clock Saturâ€" day evening to call on a young lady whom he was to escort to a wake being held for the late Lucien Pinard, who was kilied in a motor accident last week. The late Lucien Pinard was wellâ€"known lawyer at La Sarre, east of Cochrane, and was widely +known throughout the northeastern section of Quebec. On arriving at the home of the young lady he was calling for, it is said that four shots rang out just as Paquet was about to enter the house. Paquet fell on the steps of the house with four bullet wounds in the back. His assailant had apparently shot at Paquet when his back was turned to the street. The assailant escaped in the darkness and his identity, though it may be guessed at, is not definitely established. The police at first were at a loss to account for the crime as Paquet was very popular and was not known to have an enemy in the whole town oy »district. Later, the theory was advanced that the firing of the shots may have been prompted by jeaâ€" lousy and the police are understood to be working along these lines of invesâ€" tigationâ€" Paquet was taken at once to the Rouyn hospital where an operation was performed. One .44 calibre bullet was taken from his right thigh. He is exâ€" pected to recover, unless complications set in. The police are busy on the case and an arrest is expected at any time. Indeed, it is likely that there will be an arre:t before this is published. In the meantime every care is being given the wounded man and there are hopes held that he will recover. Visitors from La Sarre say that the crime has caused considerable excitement in the La Sarre district on account of the Barrie Examiner:â€"The Chinese want a national anthem. Uncle Sam should tend them that one with the funny line about a "sweet land of Liberty." Paquet Wounded While Calling to Esgurt a Young Lady to Wake at the Home of Lucien Pinard. TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, APRIL 28TH, 1932 tical msthod has been devised to solve the question. While there is a ceortain element of chance in the matter it is believed that the scheme being put in foree this week will overcome what have been considered as insurmountâ€" able difficulties up to the present. The new plan includes the idea of blasting away the slimes on top of the ore body. There are slimes to the depth of some 45 feet it is said and if these could be scattered it would allow the work to be gone on with. The particular blast arranged for this week is expected to clear away the slimes that have poured into this part of the lake at Cobalt and filled it up to such an extent. M. F. Fairlie, general manager of the Minâ€" ing Corporation of Canada came to Coâ€" balt this week to watch the success of the blasting plan, according to despatâ€" ches sent out from Cobalt. The prepâ€" arations for the blast were all carefully planned and arranged, work being carâ€" ried on, the despatches say, from a stope on the upper level of the old Coâ€" balt Lake Property. The blass w»s prepared for Tuestay of this week and if successful it will be of great advanâ€" tage to the hopes of continued proâ€" longment of the life of the Cobalt mines. In these days when so many busiâ€" nesses and industries admit they are losing money it is interesting to note one that has not only maintained sailes but has increased its volume.. Equally interesting and suggestive are the reaâ€" sons given for the continued success, advertising being mentioned as one of the chief factors. It is noteworthy that increase in advertising effort in pracâ€" tically all cases has been accompanied by increase in sales or at least mainâ€" tenance of business even in the preâ€" sent conditions. Hoping to be Able to Work on Cobalt Ore The interesting fact that the sales volume of Quaker cereals not only maintained its normal level but actuâ€" ally increased during the past year was revealed in an interview recently with CGreorge A. Macdonald, viceâ€"president, Peterborough, Ontario. Miring Corporation of Canada Work ing to Remove Slimes So that Ore at south End of Lake may be Worked. Advertising Helps to Increase Sale of Cereal This confidence in Quaker quality, built up over a long period of years, is one of the reasons for the worldâ€"wide reputation for strength and stability which The Quaker Oats Company enâ€" joys. The users of Quaker cereals throughout the world»number hundreds of millions. Because the public has continued, throughout the prasent depression, to purchase Quaker products in increasing quantities, The Quaker Oats Company has been enabled to maintain the scope of its manufacturing activities. While the operations of many companies in a variety of industries have been slowed dgdown, The Quaker Oats Company proâ€" vides regular employment and income for its large staff of employees.

The Sudbury despatches say that utiâ€" lization of millions of tons of slag, hereâ€" to fore believed valueless, in the proâ€" duction of sodium and ammonium solâ€" phate, both valuable chemicals used in the making of paper, was corecast at Sudbury on Saturday as a new inâ€" dustry for Sudbury district in an anâ€" ncuncement by the Canadian Indusâ€" tries, Ltd. Process to Extract Valuable Chemicals from Millions of Tons of Slag Available is Reported as Being Perfected. A test plant will be erected in th province of Quebec to determine th feasibility of putting the slag at Cop per Cliff and Coniston through a pro cess to manufacture the chemicals. The announcement was received from the head coffice of Canadian Industriecs Limited at Montreal but no advice was given as to the date of construction of the plant at Copper Cliff. The proâ€" cess is still in the experimental stage, but research work is proceeding and results sufficient to warrant prediction of the new industry. The treatment of smelter slag with sulphuric acid has already been sucâ€" ce:sful in producing sodium and amâ€" monium sulphate in such quantity as to be commercially profitable. The CI.L. is now manufacturing suliphuric acid on a large basis by utilizing the sulâ€" phur fumes from converter furnaces of ores in the nickel district. The fumes were previous to this progess, considâ€" ered without value. It is estimated that annually the proâ€" duction will be 15,000 tons of sodium sulphate and 26,000 tons of ammonium sulphate. The new process is successâ€" ful separation of the soda and alumina from the Orford proce:s slag, resulting in the sulphates in a pure form. Also, any copper and nickel remaining in the slag can be isolated and returned to the smelter for further treatment and made commercially useful.
