occasion a drive about tlmmlns also gave some idea of the city of nearly 35000 that has grown from the bush in leas than so years never again should we complain of roads in this snouoc but a town growing at the rate of these mining dtles can scarcely be expected to pro vide the same conveniences that others have taken three times as long to secure tlmmlns has an assessment of over 10 minions

perhaps readers will recall pictures of mining where the miner panned the gold lnthe creek and made a fortune but modern mining is not or that type tons of ore are ground crushed and treated to secure a little hit of the precious metal officials of the mine explained the process huge ball mills grind the ore to a fine powder and then starts the washing agitating and refining process twentyfour hours a day and 365 days a year the mills grind unceasingly once stopped the huge tanks would havelo be dug out by hand before they could be operated again a delsel engine stood oy to go to work in the event of a power interruption in the huge plant up stairways and along narrow wooden plat forms we fallowed the process through the mills the process is almost automatic rlth the material pumped from one tank to another until it finally becomes finished the amount of machinery and slxe of the mill does not indicate the atari em ployed it is small in comparison the inquiry was made if this was the itiosi modern mill and the answer was no iliat always new methods were being devised to make sure that a smaller quantity of the metal escaped in refuse that was thrown away in connection with this we visited a burning plant which was really only experimental men worked in here with gas masks on their faces the fumes were not pleasant still it rained but we tramped out to the lumber yards on the property where the timber for the mine was being pre pared miles of logs and timber in the course of preparation and a mill equip ped with special raws to cut the timbers just as needed for mine purposes the life of the tlmberused in the lower levels was found tb be only a year here again science had stepped in and the lumber used in these levels is now treated in huge tonka with a special preparation that has added years to its usefulness another interesting arrangement was the tunnel by which all dumber was i taken to the 200 foot level and from there to the various ports of the mine it went under the lake which is now mud with the silt from the mine as are n numbct of lasts in all the mining ftilrcs one jin ft at lake shore was tagipus a few hous were rpent at the sunk

group the food was excellent and the ser vice left nothing to be desired travel certainly leaves little lacking and tha tttp was one of the finest we have ever- experienced schedules were well main tained and arrival was in toronto shortly after seven oclock- on sunday morning an all inclusive fee covered the entire expenses of the trip we have an entirely new conception of northern ontario mining and the troubles confronting this part of the province we in the more southern parts must realize too what a market thla activity makes for all the goods we produce mining ls the only indus try in this section but there ls pur chased a great lot of the output of the industrial plants of the rest of ontario it is estimated that in 1035 klrkland lake used 11085358 of supplies and over 6000000 of this amount came from southern ontario the estimated annual payroll or klrkland lake ls seven million but the story we fear has already be come tiring a few of the souvenlers brought bock from the trip are now on view in the pass pssas window be careful however of the wet paint hut if you wish to study them closer come into the office and well gladly show them to you and give what explanation we can of northern ontario we do not preaiurve for a moment to have learned all about the north in the two days spent there but we did attempt to make the most of the glimpse we caught rail way and
