DINNER IN ITALY Thefollowing is quoted from a 'letter received .by the parents of Capt. R. W. Andrew who is ,pow Stationed . in Italy with the Can- adian' Forces: . "Yesterday .was invited out to • • dinner at an Italian home here. Quite ..an experience and they do, love to entertain but .at present their resources are very limited.. However I 'think they must have been saving up as it was almost too much for me. Had an inter- preter along with me so were; able to ,uinderstand each tither•-- otherwise it would have been rather. humorous. looking .every "thing up out of a dictionary, But to get back to the thinner, ;it start- ed off with their 'national- dish —macaroni, which was mixed, with mustard,egg and sauce, brought in a, heaping' 'plate full. `When I had finally waded thra ,, and it was . very tasty,' I was ready to call 'a 'halt, Next dish, however, was meat and greens. Well,' I finished that with some ' difficulty and expected that it would surely be the last, when they informed .me they were just starting. Next was french -fried potatoes small cutlet lamb chop, 'and meat patties (highly season- ed). By this time I was beginning ,4 to .gasp and every mouthful was an effort arfd . although I made a valiant effort finally had to • give up and Waited in 'suspense in- case any thing else cropped up. And sure enough, along came dessert which fortunately was a custard of some sort, and then later oranges and' apples. I was gasping when Ifinally Moved, a- way from the table. They told me it was a special: effort and I ,a quite . we11 believe therm -it was • even an effo1.t for Y Te.'t 'a reading and Mrs,, L. Crozier led in. prayer. ' Mrs. 'Benson Shackleton ..gave the chapter in the study book. "Foil- all of Life". Effective on Monday, April 10, an entirely new system of pay- ment of the Ontario Government hog subsidies of$1.00 -on grade "A" hogs and 50 cents on grade "Bi" hogs was put into operation according to Honorable T. • L. Kennedy, Ontario Minister of .Agriculture. • Instead. of being paid on direct application ' by the producer to the •,Departrnerit . of Agriculture, "payment will be in- cluded 'in•'the Dominion warrant Which, is 'attached to each grad- ing certificate, and wkfich can be filled in and signed by the' gred--. .er he'.grad- .er and which will include' both the Dominion subsidy of $3.O0. • on grade 'A". and $2.00' on `grade "Bl" hogs and ' the Provincial government subsidy as indicated above. The Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture.has made arrangements to _ reimburse the Dominion Governrnerit to the ex- tent of the amount of provincial subsidies so paid. • In.. view of this change, it will no longer be necessary for Ont- ario •farmers ' to . apply for the provincial subsidy on Bogs, mar- keted on or after April 10th. Sub- sidies on; hogs •niarketed before that date, however, -'will be paid -under the• farmer- systernof dir- ect application to the Hog Sub- sidy Division; Parliament Build •ings, Toront'd,. • The'. new methed .of payment of subsidies in one: amount at the time the grading: certificate is re- turned to, the farmer; will be wel- comed, by the . hog producers of _Ontario, _' ..pr -o deo fQ, a com- plete simplification of .procedure;" under which presentation of the warrant at the back •is ,the only action, necessary by the . farmer' in .orderto' .reeeive his subsidy • payments; I.AURIER Mr: Neil • J.
