Kapuskasing Farm Weekly News Letter Sixth of Series of Helpful Articles from Dominion â€" Experimental Farm. "Rearing Dairy Calves." "The Garden Site." The sixth of the semes of weekly letâ€" ters from the Kap{skasing Expeâ€"iâ€" mental Farm is given below. These letter are proving unusually interestâ€" ing not only to settlers and farmers but to many townspeople. In each letter there is usually something for the townsman as well as the rural dweller. In the letter below, for instance there is an article on "the Garden Site," which w.ll be read with interest by many who are strictly townspeople, but do like anything connected with a garâ€" den. Here is the sixth article of the series:â€" Rearing Dairy Calves At the Dominion Experimental Staâ€" tion, Kapuskasing, Ontario, the young calves are taught to drink and are fed their mother‘s milk twhee daily for the first few days at the rate of 6 to 8 pounds per day, depending on the size cf each calf. We used to let the new calves nurse their mother for 3 to 4 days, but they appeared to be harder to teach to drink after this experignce and the mothers seemed to worry more and have a greater resentment at beâ€" ing milked. Especially was this latter point evident in the case of heifers with their first calf. During the second, third and fourth week this system 1< continued â€" gradually increasing the amount of whole milk up to about 12 pounds per day. At 4 weeks‘ of age certain changes are made. To the whole milk is added i pound per day of skimâ€"milk until each â€"SELLING BRAND OF EVAPORATED _ MiLK / NE OF THE SECRETS OF ERENCH COOKERY OW tempting a most ordinary food is made by the addition of an attractive sauceâ€" one that is smooth and creamy, with delicate flavours well blended! The generous use of a variety of sauces is, to be sure, one of the secrets of French cookery," says Mary Blake in her famous book "©100 Glorified Recipes‘. And she might have added that the secret of a fine cream sauce is the use of Carnation Milk. "\ry the cream sauce recipe given hereâ€" for vegetabics, fish, meats. Notice how smooth it isâ€"how deliciousâ€"and how easy to make. Carnation Milk brings these results in all cooking where it is used because it is concentrated until it is twice as rich as bottle milk and because it is homogenized so that every drop is equally creamy.

Carnation Co., Limited, Toronto. calf is receiving 15 or 16 pounds daily. After this the whole milk is replared by skimâ€"nilk at the rate of i pound per day until the entire amount consists of skimâ€"milk. Concurrently with this, dry grain consisting of whole oats 2 parts, bran 1 part and oil cake meal 1 part is fed at the rate of 1â€"7 pound per day for the fourth week. This is increased gradually at the rate of 1â€"7 pcund per' week -per day until the halves are recoiving 2 pounds each day. Gsod quality alfalfa or clover hay is fed the calves from one month of ago on. It has been found that they conâ€" sume about 1 pound per day from 1 to 2 months of age which increases at the rate of about 1 pound per day per month, that is from 2 to 3 months they will consume about 2 pounds of hay daily and so on. It would seem that this method of gradual change from mother‘s milk, to ordinary whole milk, to skimâ€"milk plus grain and hay can be made without giving the calves any serious set back in their development. From 6 months on it is just a matâ€" ter of continuing this system of careâ€" ful feeding, eliminating ‘the skimâ€" milk gradually, as the need arises and inâ€" creasing the replacing feeds accordâ€" ingly. The Garden Site While certain kinds of scoil are adâ€" mittedly better than others for garden purposes, it should never be forgotten that proxim.ty to the house is a facâ€" tor worthy of the most serious conâ€" sideration. â€" This is particularly true. with respect to settlers‘ gardens, who in some cases have a nice patch clearea somewhere in the bush, about 1000 or more feet from the house that they deâ€" ~ide would make a lovely place for the gzarden. A large percentage of garden work can be done during spare time. such as a few minutes after dinner while waiting for hay to dry or an hour in the when the day‘s ruch 1s over. Then when the housewife wants some fresh vegetables if the garden is close at hand they are much easier obâ€" tained. Also from the standpoint of appearance, if a garden is part of the home surroundings it will usually reâ€" ceive its proper share of attention while the long garden is ? forerunner to carelessness. At Kapuskasing it ‘has been found that most garden vegetables have a wide adaptation as to their soil reâ€" quirements, and consequently have beer successfully grown on several differen types of soil, so long as proper drainâ€" age and sufficient plant food existed Then again, it is really surprising the ‘remendous change that can be done or land towards making it suitable fo: AGAIN MAYOR OF HEARST AFTER SERVING JAIL TERNVM Victor Brissscn, who was mayor 0.

H West. rardening THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONT First to Recognize Value Kirkland Ore It is a cold week when there isn‘t something go>d in the column "Grab Samples"® in The Northern Miner. Cold as the weather has been this winter it hasn‘t been that cold. "Grab Samples" is nearly always interesting and often may be Called more so. One of the latter kind was the article last week on the first samples of ore from the Kirkland Lake camp. Here is the article:â€" Ed. Hargreaves, original staker with | Wm. Wright of the famous Kirkland Lake mine that bears th:ir names, dropped into the office the cther day | with an odd tale. He said that back in 1911 shortly after they had staked three claims at the east and northâ€" east shores of Kirkland Lake he mads a discovery absout 50 feet away from an, old test pit where some earlier and | less fortunate prospector had tried his luck. Leaving Wright to test the showing, Hargreaves went to work at the Nipissing mine, to raise a bit of a stake. While there, Wright sent him down a large sample of the ore from the discovery vein and Hargreaves tcok it to J. J. Denny, who was then assaver at the Nipissing. Let Harâ€" zreaves tell the rest of the story, "I took this big sample t> Denny, the assayer, and after looking it over thoroughly he said: "That‘s the best look.ng gold ore I have seen in this country. You hang on to that property.‘ Well, as it happened, 1 didn‘t hang on but sold my interest about a month later to Weldy Young for $8.000. Hewever, that‘s not what I want to bring up "About a month ago I read in your paper that somebody had presented a platinum â€" medal to a â€" metallurgist aamed Denny, who was with the McIintyre Porcupine Mine and it struck me that it might be the same man,| although I had not seen or heard oi him for over twenty years. So I wrotso him a letter and told him that I was} che fellow who showed him the first re that ever came out of Kirklanda Lake and reminded himâ€"if he was ‘he right manâ€"of his recommendation o me to hang on to the property. In answer he writes me: "In reply to your letter I may say hat I am the man you refer to, as 1 vas with the Nipissing Mining Comâ€" from 1908 to 1924 and was in charge of the assay office at the time ou mentisn. Trusting that the inâ€" formation I gave you on your rock samples was not misleading, I am. Yours very truly, J. J. Denny." "It was wonderful agvice," said Mr. Hargreaves, "but I was unable to ake it. However, what I am really trying to do is to give credit to this nan Denny for his skill in sizing up ‘he value of a piece of ore from an absolutely new camp, and a gold camp it that. It was the first gold ore from Kirkland and for him to be able to sealize its value and to urgs me to hang on to the propprty, indicates what a good man he was even in those lays, before they started giving him platinum medals and things." Mr. Hargreaves went on to reminâ€"| isce about the carly days of the Kirkâ€" ‘and Lake camp. "Ws were not the first people in there, because the prosâ€" pectors who went in sn the Larder Lake rush had worked through that section east of Swastika and we were not the only ones to find evidences af their labour. Harry Oakes .also vep;:rted pits, trenches and even signs of channel samplings on what was later the Lake Shore. But the earlier men had no luck. The pit of one of sur claims had nothing in it of value. You must remember that the country was mostly overburdencd, with few rock exposures and where these sccurred, mostly around the lake shores, the veins were not easy to deâ€" tect. . Denny Picked First Sample old from Kirklard Lake as th Best Gold he had Seen in This Country. "At this t.me thers were two proâ€" perties working at Swastika, the Lucky Cross and the Swastika mine. We ‘eft the railway at that psint and sanced up the river to the north and then turned east, finally reaching what is now known as Kirkland Lal;e. We found old stakings there and the thre? claims we took had previously been staked, yvears before, but had lapsed. We would ncot have kept them had we no0t made the original discovery. "To the east of us Harry Oakes and the Tough boys were working, but their discoveries came later and it was conâ€" siderably later when Harry Oakes made his finds on the Lake Shore. Actually the bed of the lake lay open for nearly @ year until Bill Wright discovered that it was not staked. That was a lucky move, but by that time I was sut of the picture myself Wright zot a good block of Lake Shore stock for turning in the lake bottom claim. Of course the shares wore not very valuable then, but look at them now! "Weldy Young had secured what is 10w the townsite property befors ‘here was much activity at Kirkland Lake. I sold out to him and later Bill Wrigit sold him a small fraction at the east end of the lake but kept his Wrightâ€"Targreaves interest. The Buffalo people came into the picture ind the subsequent histery of the deâ€" velopment of the area is well known." Huntingdon Gleaner;â€"A New York woman 62 is suing a man of 73 for breach of promise! The case has been placed at the head of the list as the plaintiff, Mrs. Henriectts Hugo, has pointed out the defendant, Adoiph Ge\ger. might die before it was heard in the normal course of things. The aged defendant admitted Henrietta as his "dearest, sweetest sugarâ€"plum." Asked why he had writâ€" ten in this manner if he did not intend marriage. lhw replied: "It just Comes natural to me." NEARLY FIVE HUNDRED BIRTHS AT KIRKLAND LAKE During the past year there were 493 tirths at Kirkland Lake and district. This was 72 more than in 1932. More children were born in Decomber than in any other month. In the Christmas month there were 57 babies born. July was the next busiest month for babies. there being 53. March was third with 49. Contrary to the ordinaiy idea June was not the most pspular month in Kirkland Lake for marriages. April led them all with 19 weddings. There were 154 weddings in the year at Kirkâ€" land, which is 11 less than the previous year. There were 127 deaths in Kirkâ€" land Lake in 1932, compared to 115 in the previous year. l Mistake Allowable Every 100 Years Nipissing Weather Prophet, Aged 103 or More, Thinks he Should Not Call Them Right Cenitury After Century. Ssimon Commanda, famous Indian prophet of Nipissing, who has 103 years life to his credit, is being "kidded" a little these days because of a misfire prophecy made in regard to the weaâ€" ther for this winter. Last fall the old gentleman said:â€""There will be plenty fine weather befsre winter sets in for keeps." These days he only smiles when reminded o fthe mistake. "Sureâ€". ly a man is entitled to one mistake in 103 years." is his idea. At that he is nct sure that he is not, making another m‘stake in saying he is 103 years old. "I may be a lot older than that," he says. There is no mistake about him being 100 years old. Some of his relaâ€" tives have figured it all out and claim that he is 113 years of age. At any rate he is an old man and entitled to ia mistake or two about the weather. | Until last fall, however, he was credited |wit,h always making prophecies about ! the weather and never be.ng wrong. Simeon Commanda has three things he is specially proud of. His name 18 a source of nride to hi‘m. So is his age. The third matter of pride was hisi ability to foretell the weather. He did : not pretend that the latter was any! gift, but rather was daeveloped from observation and long experience. The one mistake is not discouraging him. "I am too old to worry about one misâ€" take," he is quoted as saying. As to his age, he is not worrying about that either. *"Either 103 or 113 are close enough to the truth to do all right fotr me," the old gentleman says. But in his pride of name there is no question or doubt. He says it was back in the days of the war of 1812 that the name "Commanda‘"‘ was given to the family. His grandfather was at that time known as Chief Rottenwood. . "That was a big war," Simon told a newsâ€" paperman recently. "That was the fight between the English and the Americans. You know the English were short of men, so they came up here to get our people. They wanted help. My grandfather was the chief. He liked the English, so he took the Indians down to fight. But you know the Indians didn‘t know what the Engâ€" lish soldiers said. My grandfather did. He could speak English. So the Engâ€" 2C CC E lish soldiers told my grandfather what they wanted the Indians to do. He told them to start fighting and when to stop. He told them when to get up in the morning and when to go to bed. The Indians heard the ‘big‘ English officer called commander, so that‘s what they called my grandfather. Only they couldn‘t say the word very well and they called him "Commanda." That‘s how we got the name. It pleasâ€" ed my kept it." e Ne CCE Recently The Advance had som«‘ more articles in regard to place names in the North and their origin. The name "Commanda‘" is commemâ€" orated in several geographical names. For instance, there is Lake Commanda at Cochrane. It is said now that this lake was named after Simon Comâ€" manda who spent some years there after his marriage. Then there is the township of Commanda, just west of Ncorth Bay, and the village of Comâ€" manda, southwest of North Bay. Both these are said to have been named in honcur ¢of Sim°n Conmmanda. We mt CC In giving a sketch of the story of his life, Simon Commanda says that his parents lived in Nip.ssing more than 100 years ago, probably 150 years ago. Then they moved io the Ottawa Valley, where he was born. In his early days the only white peop!> in the North were at Hudson Bay trading posts. the Nipissing area there were Hudson Bay posts at Mattawa and Sturgeon Falls in those days. Fur and game were plentiful and there were no game laws. Perhaps that is why there are game laws now and game is not so plentiful. I | Simcoe Reformer:â€"The _ amusing thing about these Communist agitators is that they loathe conditions under which they are asked to live in Canada, but at the same time show mortal terrâ€" or at being sent back to the country tlmt thev uant, us to be like. As the village philosophers say, "It don‘t make Exquisite Qualit y grandfzâ€"l.ther,Rot,t.enwood,so he Urges Relief Be Taken from Political Party Control Starting out with a quotation from The Advance and a reference in The Sudbury Star to a lumber operator who cannot secure men for all the work needed, The New Liskeard Speakâ€" er last week discussed the whole relief problem of the present time. ‘The quotation from The Advance was in reâ€" ference to the man in Toronto who was asked if he wanted a job. "N>!" was the reply, "I‘m on relief!" The Speakâ€" er says this was taken at first as a joke but that circumstances since have shown it to be otherwiseâ€"that there are many who do not intend to work as long as they can get relief money. The editorial in The Speaker concludes with the following:â€" "Now this matter of feeding and. clothing the people, and taxing the: people for this extra money, is a new system of procedure, and ought to be the work of all political parties to make it successful. No political party since Confederation has been stronger in Onâ€" tario Legislature than is the Conservaâ€" tive party, but "landslides" have occurâ€" red in the past, and may occur again. Now, suppose the Liberal party should come to pswer as the result of the genâ€" eral election and the same policy Of direct relief should be pursued, who is to put on end to it? It would be unâ€" popular for the new Government to stop it, and. the Conservatives, hav.ng started it, would be laughed at if they entered a protest. The recipients of cash without working for it would thus pit one party against the other, and there would be no end to giving money and squandering the mineral and timâ€" ber wealth of the province. . The remedy lies in the formation of a Union Government and the laying aside of partyism, or the appointment of a comâ€" mission compesed of an equal number of both political parties, and a Superiâ€" or Court Judge as chairman, to draft a law under which the unemployed could be cared for without any suggestion of favouritism being shown. This matter of giving relief should be absolutely reâ€" moved from party politics." Ssudbury Star:â€"Every man has a threeâ€"fold natureâ€"that which he has, that which he exhibits, and that which he thinks he has. OVEN inâ€" to the very fabric of Canada‘s industrial life are the mines of gold and silver, nickel and copper that dot O ntario‘s Northland. Activiâ€" ties at Porcupine, at Kirkland Lake, at Rouyn, Sudbury and elseâ€" where symbolize the development of this land where nature has stored her mineral treasures with truly prodigal hand. The mines have set the pace for New Ontario‘s march of achievement. ‘They have brought life and expansion to the North, transforming a region of rock and timber and tangled underâ€" growth into a land where enterprise is pushing on to new horizons, moving forward to developâ€" ments that will enhance the wellâ€"being and the prosperity of the entire Dominion. The record of mining achievement dvuring the past twenty years is one of which New Ontario may well feel proud. And in that record of proâ€" gress the name of "Crawley and McCracken" is written. For Crawley and Mcâ€" Cracken have marched with the mines, to supply the needs of the men in the camps, feeding, housing and caring for them, relieving harassed officials of the work and worry of indiâ€" vidual camp management. Crawley and McCracken are part of the North, part of its mines, of its great stirring enterâ€" prise. They have grown with it, sharing in its endeavours, serving to shape the sescafel tand or CRAWLEY MeCRACKEN youthful land of promise. _, COMPANY, L'MlTED 4 Ard t Py *# "‘IT he Bigvess Cook" "They Grew with New Ontario I as5a‘~ Cocare=as TWO MORE ARRESTS IN THE SUDBURY RELIEF ENQUIRY Last week there were two more arâ€" rests in connection with the Sudbury relie{ â€" investigation.
