(From Val d‘Or News) Sigma‘s new mill has been turning overâ€"since late last week. Production is expected to start very shortly. Like Sigma‘s progress from the beginning or cperations, running in the mill is being carried on in an unhurried manner. There is no fuss. But the circuit of the big new plant should be filled early in the month and from that point no trcuble is expected in the maintenance of=smooth production. Drifting west on the 950â€"foot level gave results from last face east of $72.10 across 13 inches and last faze west, $19.25 across 43 inthes, About % feet of drifting has been done upon level. $s EBEudgeon, direstor of mining for the Hammell interests, from Pickle Crow Mine, Patricia district, says that on the 1,200â€"foot level the vein mentioned in ithese columns last week as having been cutâ€"~â€"has since been drifted upon and slashed cut, the east face at the presâ€" ent time, showing approximately seven feet of quartz, with assays from tne south side of the face running $54.25 across 40 inches and on the north side $46.90 across 45 inches. Gcing west, the drift has been adâ€" vanced on the vein about 10 feet and has split into two branches, with schis: in between. The north branch ran $72.10 across 14 inches and the south branth $2.80 across 24 inches A drill hole north from ithe end of the main 1,200â€"foot crosscut has shown values of $42,35 across 15 inches. This is approximately 50 feet ahead of the west face of the drift, which shows 7 feet of quartz. ‘ 1,050â€"fot level, also! previously menâ€" tioned, ran as follows: $31.85 across 12 inches; trace azcross 32 inches; 70 cents across 48 inches and $44.10 across 30 Values Reported as Running at Pickle Crow Mine to ‘imagine the resulting confusion. However, word from Toronto this week says that the Ontario Dept. of Lanas and Forests has under way a new surâ€" vey cif Larder Lake. It is hoped tnat the survey now contemplated will settle the difficulty finally and completeily. Last week, Johm» Sprague, representing holders of lots at Larder Lake, mage a visit to Tcronto to take the quéstion up with â€"the government. He emphasized the different surveys made of the town and the fact that each one was different and urged the government to take such action as would relieve the situation and make available proper deeds for lcots. If this were done it would! greatly facilitate the development of Larder Lake and avoid the danger of litigation. has been especially inconvenient and trcublesome in view of the fact that there is a boom on at Larder Laxze. Develcpment, however, has been held up by the fact that proper titles could not be secured for lots and there nas been serious difficulty in deciding wnere the Icts are,. It seems that there nave been two general surveys of the town, But as these two do not agree it is easy There has recently much trouble experienced in Larder Lfike over the Plan New Survey of Town of Larder Lake Department of Lands and Forests Hopes to Settle Difficulties About Lots and Titles.

Union cfficials say that more space was needed in order to handle appliâ€" cations and other business of the union that was available at the former headâ€" quarters on Balsam street north. According to the Union News, a paper published in Sudbury by the union, efforts are being made here to organize lumber and sawmill men into a union j under the Trades and Labour Congress of Canada. Mine Union Office Here Moved to New Quarters And, from what we learn, it wouldn‘t be â€"a ‘bad idea if the Kirkland Lake Medical Association joined with the Larder docorts in holding a bee of incculationâ€"a ccuple of them, in fact, cne to prevent typhoid, the other to prevent diphtheria. In the meantime, Larder people are hoping that the Ontario Government realizes that there is a problem, and that something should daone about itâ€"within the next two weeksâ€"before the spring unâ€"off befouls everything. As far as we have been informed, the major ming cof the camp has already had its men inoculated with antiâ€" typhoid serum. Sanitation is the main prcolem which <confrents citizens who live on the chqres of the lake where the big trout lurk, and sanitation or lack of it, is something which causes a great deal of anxiety to thoughtful ‘residents, parâ€" ticularly those who are parents. (From Northern News) Realty troubles, invclving such minor affairs as streets running through and cut ithrough privatelyâ€"owned lots and the lack of fire protection are not the major problems of Larder Lake, which, in the revival of a mining camp which boomed in 1907 or thereabouts is, like the rest of the North, suffering from srcwing pains. Larder Lake Encountering Different Troubles Now While preparations are continuing for the commencement of drill operations, cross trenching is proceeding ito deterâ€" mine the length and width of a new dissovery. An additional outcropping in the scuthern section of the property is being opsned up and according to all indications it will persist for the full wicih of the claims. In concluding the report Mr. Span- ner states that the company is in a sound financial position with sufficient funds on hand to complete the extenâ€" sive campaign now under way. A. H. Spanner, president of Williamâ€" son Mines, Ltd., in a progress report now being forwarded to shareholders, states that to date considerable surface explicration has been carried out and geveral drill hoilies have now been spotâ€" ted in anticipation of the early comâ€" mensement of the diamond drill camâ€" Much Surface Work at Williamsaon Mines Preparations Continue for Commencement of Drillâ€" ing Operations.
