Noranda Mines Winded
Noranda Mines Limited is making
steady progress in the direction of
large scale production; - During the
time since the smelter Dame into op•
oration the mine has been able to
eeep'up with the demand for smelter,
feed to spite of the "limited existing
capaetty of No, 8 abaft. When liie.
writer, made an inspection of Noranda,
on March 1st, ,excellent speed was
being attained in hoisting ore . Tre
e
last day of Vebruitiry showed a record
of 1,5
93 ' tons 6f ore hoisted fu. addi-
tion to waste rock, Tile smelter's re-
gairements wineuet t0 approximately
1,100 tons daily, it is therefore pox
sable to do a considerable amount of
shaft
through No, 3
vele inrent work r ro u
de L
and continue to hoist enough ore in
styNorcfihg dayss Co keep
the
smelter
Ping tor the entire week.
No, 4 shaft was at a depth of about
660 -Poet at the begiuuing of this
month It will be equipped with a
new hoist, which was then on route
from the Atlantic seaboard within
the next few days, The abaft sinking
work is ahead of schedule, The 1,000•
foot level will be reached and stations
cut at hundred foot intervals by Sep-
tember, A 'Mfg crosscut is being
driven from Nu, 3 to No. 4 shaft. In
all probability the crosscut will reach
its objective and the station cut before
the shaft is finished. However, a dee-
Won nun' be made to continue the
shaft to a depth of. 1,500 feet. No. 4
shaft will have a much greater hoist-
ing capacity than No. 3. ft will be no
great task to Handle 3,000 tons of ore
daily from the two shafts and to con-
duct an Intensive campaign of mining
development. No. 4 shaft is several
hundred feet away from any known
ore, but the same was said concerning
No, 3 shaft wheu it was at the corres•.
.pending depth.
There Is fairly definite assurance
cuucorning the extension of important
of a of average mine grade, to a depth
of L,500 feet. The unknown factor is
the extent and importance of ore oc-
currences below the 1.000 foot, in a
general way diamond drilling results
below the 976 -foot, which wee con-
ducted at one hundred foot intervals
along the 440foot drift in "FI" orebody
yielded gratifying results. The copper
content may be expected to vary at
different horizons. Generally speak-
ing, however. the drilling downward
from the 500 foot, as well'as from the
976 foot level, indicate bigger things
for Noranda thau are appreciated by
the general public.
It is not looking too far ahead uow
to visualize Norutda's production run-
ning from 2200 to 2600 tons daily,
with two reverberatory furnaces and
three converters. Suck a production
is quite definitely assured. There is
no justification at present 'in looking
beyond that point, but it may be re-
membered that Norandaes develop•
meat has been crowded with pleasant
surprises ,which have far outnurnber-
ed the disappointments. The develop -
anent work of the next eighteen
months should tell the major part of
.the story,

Of this missionary task,
I, THE UNIVERSAL MISSION, Acts 1:6-8,
V. 6. The chief theme of the teach-
ing of Jesus while on earth was the
kingdom of God, and the disciples
thought that their Lord would soon,
come in glory to fullfil the hopes
of
Israel, These hopes which had been
defeated by his death were reawaken-
ed by the resureection, but this gees
tion show hew limited was the vision
of these. men. They think only of then

ciples should be anxious to know
about the time of the return of Christ
tNewTestament we
All through the t
see the signs of their eagereese to look
at the future This is especially seen
in the Revelation. But Jesus did not,
while on earth, satisfy this curiosity.
He would not give al.y defil-ite day or
hour, and her.: he repeats his state-
ment, saying • that all things are in
the hands of the Father. This expec-
tation was not to be abandoned, but
it must be purified.
V. 8. Though they are riot told about
the mysteries of the future yet they
are to receive the strength which will
enable them to carry on the work that.
lies to their hands. This strength
was to consist in mental power, in
courage, and in special endowments
for new work. .. Heir chief duty would
be to go forth and bear witness to the.
gospel of Christ, while the sphere of
their ministry is defined. Begintfing
at Jerusalem, they are to go to
Judma, then to Samaria, and after-
wards to the farthest parts of the
empire. These fou: stages of develop-
ment form the main divisions of the
Acts. This, then, is the world mission
placed before the disciples of Jesus.
II. THE PRINCIPLES 0S STEWARDSHIY
2 Cor, 8: 1-9,
V. 1. We read in 1 Corinthians of
the. collection which was being made.
for the poor brethren in Jerusalem,
who were much persecute'- by the
Jews. Now Paul returns ' the 'sub-
ject in order that he may urge upon
his friends the duty of completing
this work, We note how carded he is
in laying upon these converts the duty
of reeving. He appeals first to the
;gifts of the churches in Nlacedonia, try
Which we are a understand the
churches at Thessaldnica, Phiiihpi and
Berea. And he calls this giving of
money a grace of God. This charity
is not a severe duty, nor a mere policy
of wisdom; it is a real evidence of the.
presence of God's grace. Giving en-
riches the soul of the gieer, and be-
stows the qualities which belong to
God.
Vs. 2, 3. Several further facts in
the Macedonian situation are given.
The people the,.o were not rich, nor
were they able to give large sums, but
they gave beyond their ability. At-
tention may be called to the widow's
mite. "Her coin,• worthless in the eyes
of the rich Pharisee, was, in the eyes
of Christ, transformed by her love
into the gold of the eternal city." We
must never measure gifts by their
bank value. Attention is also called
to the joy with which the Macedon-
ians gave. There was no grudging
spirit in their service.
V. 5. But the most important fact
was that they did not stop with the
granting of money. They gave them-
selves. They recognized the truth
that all their possessions and life
itself, were the gifts of Gori, and they
would not keep back anything. It is
so easy for us to think that we have
fulfilled our religious duty of giving
when we have contributed one-tenth,
but all life is meant to be an offering.
We are to present our bodies a living
sacrifice.
V. 6. Paul replied much upon his
helpers, and Titus had an honorable
place among these. He had begun the
work some time before, and he is now
commissioned to complete it.
V. 7. Three motives are now men-
tioned to stir up their hearts:
(1) He appeals to their own past
record which is full of excellent
achievement. They excel in faith and
knowledge and in love for Paul. Let
them now add this grace also to their
character, It is so noble a quality.
V. 8. (2) Paul use again the ex-
ample of other churches tc stimulate
the Corinthians. He would not use
authority, nor lay down any order
which they must obey. He rather
would use the persuasive method of
emulation.
V. 9. (3) The most inspiring motive
is Christ himself. He came to our
world surrendering all the wealth of
the skies, and he gave himself for us.
We have been bought by the price of
Christ's death, and, therefore, we be-
long to him, and all we have should
be his. Thus the appeal to sacrificial
stewardship reaches its noblest ex-
pression in the •.rose. A great Eng-
lish leader has said, "It is the absence
of the Christian motive—the motive
of self-sacrifice depending on the
Christian faith -which is the real
Source of the deplorable conditions
with which we have to deal. The prin-
ciple of service—in which self-sacri-
Tice is an essential element—is. the
411 history is simply human nature fundamental principle by which life,
written largo. It is a great pageant, latod !,
curious, interesting, and most dice
agreeable. The study of it will 'lead, what's a symposium?" "its

reason for believing that the attempt
to secure further ore will be quite as
earnest as in the summer of 1927
when discoveries followed each other
with remarkable rapidity. There le a
great deal of new ground to be explor-
ed which bolds quite as attractive
possibilities as the section of No. 4
area which brought in additional ore
over a year and a half ago. The
year 1918 was really an "off" year
so far es significant developments
are concerned, although it was by no
means negative in its consequences.
An effort will be made over the next
six months to double the present re-
serves of around 910,000,000. It is
quite within the range of possibility
that this will be done. Tile property
may not be very far from the produc-
tion stage, particularly if coming de-
velopments meet the tropes of the
management.
The refinery plans which have been
advanced, but which are not yet
known in detail, may be of much im-
portance to Amulet, especially it it
seems likely an. electrolytic zinc plant
is erected, This would provide a
spleudid outlet for Amulet's couoen-
trates, The Sterling mine in Cape
Breton promises .to be an important
source of zinc and it should be re.
membered that this is under the con-
trol of British Metals Corporation
which is associated with Noranda,
and Nichols Copper Company in one
of their refinery projects. It should
not be overlooked brat Amulet pos-
sesses a great deal of ground in
which ore -making possibilities are at-
tractive, The stock may be consid-
ered as fairly attractive at around the
current price of 92.80 for a hold of
possibly six months.
Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting
Hudson Bay Mining and. Smelting
Company directors did not give a
great deal of new information to
shareholders at the annual meeting
held in Woodstock on March 6th. The
announcements they did make were
decidedly reassuring. The ore reser-
ves were placed conservatively at
eighteen million tons. It is thought
this could have been increased con-
siderably without undue risk, Pro-
fits are estimated to run at around
$3.60 per ton without allowing for
depreciation and depletion. With a
Production of three thousand tons a
day ,it is comparatively easy to figure
oat probable earnings per share per
annum on the capitalization of 2,600,-
000
,600;000 shares all of which are issued. It
is estimated that the profits of the
first six years' operations will be suf-
ficient to meet the entire capital out-
lay. The mine has a long life ahead
of it, without counting upon the un-
doubted additions to ore reserves that
will be made as development pro
Deeds.
The power development at Island
Falls, Saskatchewan is proceeding, It
will provide about 44,00D h.p. and
power will be delivered about the end
of this year.; A temporary plant will
deliver two thousand h.p. at the mine
within the next few weeks and this
will be dismantled when the main
construction is finished, The com-
pany has current assets of $12,928,109
consisting of conservative investment
securities and cash.
The ore content is estimated ale
1.71 per cent, copper, 3.45 per cent
zinc, .074 oz, gold and 1.06 oz. silver
Satisfactory arrangements with the
C.N.R, have been reached concerning
freight rates to apply as soon as the
rahway is turned over by the con
struction company. The Whitney
and Newmont interests make an ex
ceptionally strong combination. The
company is assured of substantial
profits and the purchase of its shares
at around current prices is cdnsider-
ed'attractive for a hold of one to two
years,
When No. 1 reverberatory furnace
was closed down for repairs a few
weeks ago the performance of No. 2
furnace was rather disappointing. A
Sew adjustments corrected its short-
•cotnings and everything is now run-
ning smoothly. The smelter has reach-
ed a state of high efficiency. The re-
lining of No. 1 furnace is proceeding
and provision bas been made for the
erection et a third converter, which
will provide enough capacity to take
care ofthe output of bctt. reverbera-
tory unite. In other words each
reverberatory furnace is capable of
handling approximately 1100 to 1300
tons of ore daily without being crowd-
ed unduly. Three converters work-
ing to capacity can handle the entire
•output.
Obviously much importance is at-
tached to the refinery plans of Nor-
anda Mines Limited. It is still too
early to mak detailed annuanoe-
ments of policy in this connection.
It may be stated however that Nor-
enda's control and its association
with British Metals Corporation and
Nichols Copper Company gives as.
surauee of tho success of the enter -
Price. British Metrls is without
rival in the British Empire, as a mar-
keter of copper and its ores. Nichols
Copper Company of New York is one
of tho ost important organizations
of its kind in the United' States, with
abundant technical skill at its com-
mand, and a world-wide mining con-
nection. The location of the Nor-
anda refinery at tidewater on the
Lower St. Lawrence will placeit in
p position to handle export business.
The Noranda picture is beginning
to be filled out, and the next .two
years will accomplish much in this
regard. We recommend thestock
as an outstanding purchase for sub•
e,tantial enhancement, pointing to its
probable earnings as justification for
Deitch higher prices tor tete shares
"ellen have yet been attained.

of "Heretofobotulism•
re, home eantred string
beans have caused thirty-nine out-
breaks of botulism, far in, excess, of.
any other food, In fact, the home
canned string beans panned by the
cold pack process, particularly in cer-
tain parts of the United States and
potential and conti u
r an
Canada,are
ous menace. Only boiling for a suffi-
cient length of time after- removal
from the glass jar before the beans
make them reasonably
are served can a y
safe,
The departments' of home economies
in agricultural `colleges, unlvereleegs
and their.extension divisions through-
out the country' should plan a.vigorous
educational campaign in order to pre-
vent these prdventable deaths. Many
oe the recipes for -the home canning
of vegetables antedate the present-day
knowledge of botulism and, with a few
exceptions no effort has been made to
correct them.
"Although it will admittedly be dif-
ficult to reach many of those who aro
particularly endangered by foods in-
adequately preserved in the home'
the
public should be told repeatedly that
string beans and every nonacid vege-
table may be rendered sari either by
sterilization for a sufficient time and
temperature in a pressure cooker or
by drying or'by the addition of a 10
per, cent. brine solution to the cold
pack. method.
"Enough information is now avail-
able to enable theauthorities to forma-
late definite rules to guide the home
canner. Most of these facts were
fully brought out in the original re
port of the California Botulism Com-
mission."

Rats F'olkow
Their Noses
Experiment Shows Why They
Turn Right or Left
A rat follows his nose, besides hie
natural bent, when running over a
new and unaccustomed path. This
fact has been shown to be true liter-.
ally as well as, figuratively by work
recently... completed by Joseph S.
Yoshioka at the University of Cali-
fornia.
Dr. Yoshioka teued inrunning.
thirty-five rats through a maze sev-
eral times that a few showed tenden-
cies always to tura to the right when
opportunity offered, and a few others
showed a tendency always to turn to
the left. Seeking an explanation of
this, he examined the noses of these
few rats with ,a special bent for the
right or for the left turns.
He discovered ,tha. theyall had ,a
curvature in the mecian suture of
the nasal bones. A. slight curve to the
right in this bone makes'. the right
nasal passage larger and causes the
tip of the nose to point a: little to the
left. ' The op, csite condition in the
bone causes the tip to point a little to
the right. Themazerecords of the
rats revealed that they were in the ,
habit of turning most frequently in
the direction 'which their noses pointed.
