Like all other climbers, they should be well supported, and the best and most natural support is made of switches These switches (preferably birch for strength and lasting quality) may be secured in early spring before the leaves appear. and should approximate eight feet in length. This length will allow a staking below ground of one foot and a fence 9f six to seven feet high. This fence should be well sup ported, otherwise winds and rains would bear it down with irreparable Ono Round Way Trip Cabin Class from ‘122. ‘226. TaurISt‘C‘ZIassmm 104. 5° 189.

It is the intention of the com~ pany. when a station has been estab- lished at the 250â€"foot horizon, to open up the lst and 2nd levels. Consider- able attention will be given to these levels to prove conditions on the Nos. 1 and 2 veins before continuing the shaft down to the proposed objective at 500 feet depth. Sinking of the shaft at the Swayze property of Lee Gold Mines is continu- ing to its present objective at 250 feet. according to J. J. Byrne, president. A crosscut .on the 125-f-cot level en- countered the No. l vein a distance of approximately 55 feet from the shaft. showing a width of 14 feet. While assay results are not known at present, Mr. Byrne stated that the vein con- dition is similar to the surface showing.

Next. weeks not es will deal with bulbs LEE GOLD ENCOUNTERS VEIN ON FIRST LEVEL Sweetpeas need special cultivation. As soon as the frost is out of the ground in the spring. a trench should be dug, one foot wide and two feet eep. Well-rotted manure mixed with .a. little soil is placed in the bottom la'bove which is put a layer cf four inches of rich Well-broken sand loam. The seeds are then sown four inches apart in alternate positions on either ;side of what will be the fence. (To Iobtain speedy results. nick off a frac~ tic-n from the outer layer of each seed Iwith a pocket knife). Cover the seed iwith another four inches of light soil. 'This will leave a depression of four inches to fill, in later on after the peas have pushed through and (another im- portant feature) to fill in for protection in the case of late frests. Deeper and more generous cultivation of swe-etpea beds is pessible. but we would not ad- vise it for this locality. In the case of over cultivation, our short and speedy growing season would make the vinest “go to bush"~â€"-that is, develop excessive foliage and few flowers. The same re~ sult occurs in close planting. The vines then should not be further fer- tilized until the blooming stage when the careful application of liquid fer- tilizers would be beneficial. damage to the vines. .At each end or corner of the fence there should be sturdy poles or iron stakes. Stretched between these. and interlaced between the switches. there should 'be three or four strong wires. This is a lot of work and some fanciers erect a more per- manent framework. In this case. pip- ing is generally used in place of wooden poles and a light wire cable is strung from top to top upholding some very Open and light type of wire netting on which the vines may climb. These metal parts are usually painted green for protection and appearance. The netting should be as light and open as; possible; as it is the wire may be too} hot for the sensitive tendrils of the‘ vines. Timmins Horticultural Society Flowersâ€"Box 1458. chtaxbles~Box 1378. When it is remembered that a large proportion of Ontario’s industrial capacity and of Ontario workmen were still idle last December. it cannot truly tem, and even. on that. system, the amount of unutilized commercial capa- city was less than 125,000 horsepower. or 10 per cent. of the 1.257.000 horse- power total available. l or course, in the meantime, until general industry resumes its normal demands for power. it is important to keep the cost of maintaining these necessary special power reserves as low as possible. The Hydro Commission is accomplishing this through contracts under which the reserve power is used for producing process steam. but such power can immediately be withdrawn at any time it is required for the Ply-3 dro municipalities or for the inainten-i ance of a supply of firm power. As :1: results of these eflorts, there was in December, 1933, no commercial power capacity idle on any pf the Com- mission's systems owned by Hydro municipalities except the Niagara sys-' This is the fortunate position which the power users of Ontario and their employees are in to-day. The Hydro- electric Power Commission in 1929 had Iarranged for power supplies to become available year by year up to 1936â€"7 from the only economical sources ,available to itâ€"namely, from its new gChats Falls plant and from purchased power. The quantities provided were moderate. being 30 per cent less than the full amount required to take care of an eleven per cent rate of growth for the period concerned. However: as a result of these provisions. the‘ Commission at the end of 1933 had a total commercial capacity of 1.257.000 horsepower for the industries and other power users of the great 25-cycle Nia- gara system. This affords reserve power capacity, above the reduced primary power demands at this stage of the depression. of nearly 315,000 horse- power. Unless recovery from depres-I sion, is exceptionally rapid, this quan- tity should be sufficient to safeguard Ontario industries and workmen from, the disastrous delays that. without such power reserves. would have ham- pered the process of return to fuller activityâ€"a beginning of which is how in evidence. i If, up to the beginning of the depres- sion, the power authorities have been faithfully and wisely carrying out their duty of planning and arranging new sources of power to meet normal growth of demands, the extra reserve power for recovery from depression will be available When needed, and the fac- tories will not have to wait for power plants to be constructed before they can resume operation. (In some of the large municipalities there is as much as 30 per cent of the electrical motors idle due to the depression).) Of course, when the factories shut down for the night, extra reserve capa- city corresponding to their temporarily discontinued power demands must be kept available until morning. Cor- respondingly, when there Dis an indus- trial depression. extra power reserve capacity in accordance with the amount of idleness of factories must be kept on hand. Otherwise the factories could not resume ope 'ation and re- employ their workm when the (lawn of recovery appears. The other main consideration is, how much reserve power capacity in excess of actual demands is it considered good practice to maintain actually available? To care for ordinary operating con- tingencies and ensure continuous re- liable service, many large power under- takings keep a reserve or spare capa- city on hand of 30 per cent or more. The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario, with its uniformly high standards of construction and other favourable circumstances, is able to maintain its service with a minimum reserve capacity of but 10 per cent. These minimum percentages apply to prosperous times. and represent the; desirable spare capacity at the time of the day and year that the power de- mand is greatest. l Broadly speaking, growth in electri- cal demand in the more populated por- tion of Ontario during the eighteen years up to 1930 was of the order of 11 per cent per year, a rate of growth that had been consistently maintained throughout this long period. The arrangements for new power supplies to meet these growing demands must be taken in hand well in advance, be- cause it takes several years to arrange for water-power leases, to draw up de- signs, and to carry out construction projects for large hydro-electric power plants. This, on a million-horseâ€"power system, means that hundreds of thou- sands of horsepower must be planned or contracted for and under construe- tion, in addition to the power actually in use at any time. The first consideration is, what doe’s past experience indicate as a necessaiy piovision for future needs? In other words, what has been the past normal rate of growth in demand? The provision of adequate electrical power to meet actual demands with reserve margin to ensure continuous service and to take up the temporary slackening that occurs during depres- sion. is a subject regarding which many conflicting statements have been made, but which can readily be understood if the basic considerations set out in these surveys are kept iin mind. The current monthly letter of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, in deal- ing with the subject of power supplies and requirements at the present time. confirms strikingly the conclusions reached by Dr. F. A. Gaby. Chief En- gineer of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario, in his com- prehensive published analysis of power trends. Hydro Policy Shown to Have Been Right When Depression is Over Power Situ- ation will be of Vltal Help in Assuring Early Recovery. m 90853!)me ADVANCE. Time. ONTARIO C. Chenier. W. D.

Trade, and other dis- tinguished guests will alsobe present for this civic tribute to Komonen; NOTABLE STRIKE REPORTED IN TOWNSHIP OF MUNRO Taavi Komonen (called Dave by his English-speaking friends) was formerly a resident of Toronto but couldn‘t get a decent job there. He came to Sud- bury to work at his trade as carpenter at the Frcod Mine. He worked on the job steadily and honestly, doing his training on the side when off shift. Friends at the Frood helped him pay his way to Boston to take part in the famous marathon. That's about all the story, except the volumes that may be read bet-ween the lines to suggest that Dave Komonen is a real type of good sport. I Johnny Kelley. of North Medford. iwho had dogged Komonen throughout the race, finished second. Komonen °had put on such a burst of speed near- ing the finish that he had left Kelley far behind. The little Medford Irish- man finally looked behind him. saw that he was in no danger of being beat- en out for second place. and then took his tim-e- finishing. His time was 2 hours, 36 minutes, 50 2-5 seconds. Canadian Receives Cup Both Komonen and Kelley were giv- en ovations by the cheering thousands at the finish. Among those who greet- Cd the runners was Mayor Frederick W. Mansfield, of Boston. One hundred and ninety-three men, long in wind and Leg, started over the highways, Boston-bound, from Hopkin- ton, promptly on the stroke of 12 noon on the long grind of 25 miles and 385‘ yards. . The Canadian was given time enough to catch his breath before receiving the silver cup and laurel wreath that is the reward for finishing 25 miles and 385 yards of running in front. Third was Bill‘Steiner, of New York, a man with a great record for long dis- tances, but who found the going too hard for him. His time was 2 hours, 40 minutes, 29 1~5 seconds.

He fell from the chair and was left on the floor to sober up. He was found dead the next day. Death was attributed to a rupture of an artery at the base of the. brain. The rupture might have been due to over-stimulation of the blood circula- tion, the medical testimony said. According to references in The North- land Post a couple of weeks ago the homebrew used by Laycox before his death has been taken by others who had exhibited much of the same symptoms.
