New Croundwood Pulp Plant Near Haileybury Starts Operations The new, 40 ton ground wood pulp mill of the Timiskaming Pulp & Paper Company, Limited, which is located at the head of Lake Timiskaming about midway between Haileybury and New Liskeard, Ontario, and is served by the Timiskaming & Northern railway, recently began operations. The location of the plant, which has a year's supply of pulpwood on hand, permits of convenient transportation of wood not only from the Northern Ontario districts, which are on the railroad, but also the areas North and East of Lake Timiskaming. The Quinze River and other large streams tributary to Lake Timiskaming flow through one of the best pulpwood sec- tions in the country and afford direct water transportation for this material to the mill. The company has acquired timber limits on the Quinze River but during the past few months has purchased much rail wood from the settlers. Alex. Fasken, , of Toronto, is President of the company and J. H. Black, of Toronto, General Manager. Viele, Blackwell & Buck, 49 Wall St., New York, are engineers with H. S. Slocum, engineer, in charge of design and construction. Henry Pudden is superintend- ent of construction. Power is supplied the mill by the Northern Ontario Light & Power Company, Limited, which has several hydro-electric develop- ments on the Montreal and Matabitchewan Rivers and furnishes power to the districts between Cobalt and Kirkland Lake. The buildings are fire proof throughout with concrete sub-struc- ture, steel frame, hollow tile walls and gypsum slab roof. The floors are concrete with cast iron plates imbedded in parts used for truck- ing. One drumbarker, 10 feet by 30 feet furnished by the Canadian Barking Drum Company, Limited, has been installed in the wood room where provision has been ma
