  • The Geolo^ of Darling Township and Part of Lavant Township
    The Geolo^ of Darling Township and Part of Lavant Township BY P. A. Peach INTRODUCTION The townships of Darhng and Lavant lie in the western part of Lanark county about 20 miles west of the town of Carleton Place and 16 miles southeast of the town of Renfrew. The area is well served by roads and railway. A gravel- surfaced road from Lanark to Calabc^ie passes through Darling township, and from this the whole area is accessible by means of numerous concession roads. The northeastern part of Darling township is most easily reached by concession road from Arnprior and from provincial highway No. 29 through the village of Clayton. The Kingston-Pembroke line of the Canadian Pacific railway runs across the west side of Lavant township, with railway stations at Lavant, Folger, and Flower and a small spur line to Clyde Forks. The Ontario Hydro-Electric Power Commission's Toronto-Paugan Falls transmission line runs through the middle of both townships. Natural Resources Farming is carried on chiefly along the southeast edge of Darling township where the land is well cleared of bush. The soil is poor and thin, bedrock ap(>earing at the surface in many of the arable fields. Much of the income of the area comes from the lumbering industry; there are small sawmills at Tatlock and Clayton. At the time of mapping, however, most of the timber cut in the area was being sent by road to Ottawa for milling. Good stands of immature hardwood bush were seen; they consist mostly of maple, beech, oak, and elm.
