Kitchener Second 13ecause of the recent 'stock market trading records' the people of Canada are undaUbt. edly much more mining eonsw dious than they have been far several years. Few Of us are aware Of the operatiOnS of our Mines except as a series of fig- ures in . the columns of 'market quotations in our daily papers. Too many of us are inclined to assess the Maritimes as a Wilderness of pulpwood forests and coal mines which have been closed from lack of mar- kets for this commodity. Min- ing possibilities of vast resour- ces have only just begun to be realized. I believe even those who have never owned a speculative or blue chip stock in their en- tire lifetime will be interested in' some of the quotations from Mr. Lacombe even as I was upon reading them.

I had heard the usual gossip about production possibilities. This is bound to be exchanged from' mouth to mouth about any district operation• and, 'be- cause the CN was building a 15 mile spur line into 'the mine site at a cost of some million and a half dollars (one of its largest construction projects last year) to move the lead and zinc ore concentrate, I became quite excited at the prospects of writing about this Maritime venture. I respected the adamant "no statettent" attitude of the eX- eetttive who sat opposite me that afternoon, however, and I have now been rewarded by a news item from D. V. La- combe, regional manager, pub- lic relations for the CN at Moncton. Public Mining Conacious Sometimes, though this Vag- abonding of mine has been dubbed "the most glamorous job in Canada", it has been friistrating to exasperation. I remember one interview I tried to obtain last summer when my journeying took me to Bathurst, New Brunswick. This was with and officer of the Brunswick Mining and Smelt- ing Corporation. I got my foot in the door, in fact I was. in- vited most courteously to have a seat in 'a warm and busy office. But at that time any infor- NEW BRUNSWICK MINE ANNOUNCES PRODUCTION The Corner stone of the Parliament 13tuilding in Ottawa was laid by 'the then Prince Of Wales, later Edward VII, in 1860.

"The mine is scheduled to produce 3,000 tons of ore daily this summer and present plans call for en expansion to 4,500 tons daily by fall. "The concentrate — in the form of fine granules — is loaded into CN gondolas and shunted to Dalhousie where it is being stockpiled on the wharf 'to await shipment to overseas markets. At Dalhougle the concentrate is Unloaded by a payloacter on to conveyor belts which carry it to the stockpile.

Not only are they out of scale with the property as a whole, but their Shade may restrict the planting of other shrubs, and flowers. It is not advisable to plant trees close to the home, or in such a location where they may interfere With Overhead wires or underground services. Avoid Willow The Weeping Willow is a tree which should be 'avoided on small lots since It grows rapidly and. Will eventually dominate the property. Trees should not be planted at random, Place each tree where it can best serve its purpose — such as providing shade to key living areas ag- ainst morning or late after- noon sun. Other factors which influ- ence the choice of trees are form, shade; color and foiliage. There are many beautiful Spec- los which have goOd foliage Characteristita, fine' fall color, attractive bark, or spring blos- soinS, The show is sponsored by the Starlight Circle of" Wesley- Willis United Church and the ,group has been planning and working on the exhibition since April.

Eye-Catching Although trees with color ed foliage are eye - catching, be exercised in their use. However, in the correct set- ting, such a specimen tree pro-, vides a striking contrast with a dash of color, but two or more together, can be over- Whebnitig. Most flowering 'trees — ex- cept the Catalpa, tulip tree, horse chestnut and locust — are small and more easily ac- cominodated on the average let, Although 'the flowering period is short, many have colored fruit, good fail color arid pro- vide shade when mature.
