W. Pierce, 0. L.5,, D. L.S.in Saturday Night). With the recent discoveries of gold in the Red Lake and neigh-. boring areas, a district has come into prominence about which comparatively litile, up to the present, has been know. This is the district of Patricia, the largest district in the province of Ontario, 1 of funds to carry on s hospitals in Muskoka aintenance of patients y will you get good but your money will 'ea greater end, for » someone in distress, double-barred Red ry. packet.

The fisheries of this region have only been slightly investigated. South of the southern boundary of Patricia, traversing Northern Ontario, are three transcontin- ental' railways affording easy access from other parts of Can- ada. In the country to the south and southeast of Patricia these railways tap some of the greatest mineral developments known to date. Here also is the source of raw product--timber and pulp- wood--which has given rise to a number of large pulp and paper and lumber companies. The famous Clay Belt of North- ern - Ontario which lies south easterly from the district of Patricia and contains sixteen million acres, of arable lands north of the height of land, promises well for the future of this country from an agricultural point of view. Attention is now being turned in this direction and thriving settle- ments are dlready in evidence. The strategic location of Palri~ in, «50. far .eas.. transportation, resources, and possible markets are concerned, is such as to make it apparent that this district is logically on the eve of develop- ment. bay alone. Since that time, however, als when conditions would be ripe for its development. In its solitude it has remained as a land for the trapper and the Indian with "a few fur-trading posts scattered along the principal waterways but with large areas of the interior devoid of any trad- ing posts whatever, areas- which must indeed be rich as regards fur bearing animals. As a paradise for the trapper and the occasional sportsman in search of game who wished to travel away from th% beaten path, it has remained un- challenged practically up to the present day. Our information even. as yet is not extensive. From what little that we do know, we can assume that this is a naturally timbered country espec- formations that will prove a valuable asset from the point of capable of being harnessed into immense developments. The dis- trict has a great many lakes, rivers and topographical features, some of which are not even sug- gested on present maps. The Although full of possibilities waterways, as far as can bey that await only the action of in- gathered, abound in fish --a dustrial enterprise for their real- potential food supply for the future. Wi The southern boundary of the ization, it is amazing to find that our actual knowledge of this dis- trict is really very meagre.
