REVOLUTION IN A TEA KETTLE
Tempests in teapots are fairly
common, but it is not often
you find a revolution in a tea
kettle.
James Watt did—and the
world took a giant step
forward, for in his tea kettle
Watt envisaged the steam
engine that started the
Industrial Revolution.
Canada, more, than most
countries, has benefited from
that revolution. Our industri-
al growth has given us one of
the world's highest standards
of living. Modern industries
depend to a great extent on
oil. Because companies- like
Imperial have made oil avail-
able at reasonable prices
wherever it is needed,
Canadians use oil for more
than half their energy
requirements.

.04,Yflold Correspondent)
Ben Rai-mei' had A. lucky

the kitchen. One piece .of iron was driven right through the.

Mr. gatemen was burning
wood in the stove and he got

Groundhog Sees
Shadow-But
Spring is Coming
(Bayfield Correspondent)
The groundhog saw his shad-
ow last Thursday. There was
no question about it here. The
sun shone all day and it was
very cold.
But lest you became depres-
sed thinking of five more long
weeks of winter (from the date
of this edition) here is, some
cheerful news from Mrs. J. E.
Howard who keeps track of the
birds:
First sign of an early sp
was the old brown owl ,singinee
in the swamp in January;
Second sign, The woodpeck-
ers sang loud and clear on
Tuesday, February 7;
Third sign, There is, a rosi-
ness about the sunsets which
casts the same hue over the
landscape reminding one of the
end of March rather than the
beginning of February.
Farm Management gets Pri-
ority in New Government Ex-
teneion Policy! This was a head-
line in one of our county week-
lies. In the article that follow-
ed Mr. Goodfellow pointed out
the need for better bookkeeping
and more business like manage-
ment of the farm operation.
This policy is apparently to
replace the former policy of
solving the farmers' problem by
making two ,blades of grass'
grow in the place formerly tak-
en by one. This new brand of
farm efficiency is apparently
being accepted by most of our
agricultural representatives to
mean a lowering of costs of
production without increasing
production.
This seems to be the Onitarib
Minister of Agriculture's' answ-
er to the low income problem
of Ontario farmers. Let us
hope it brings improvement but
in the meantime let us look at
the actions of other areas, and
I quote from the Newsletter of
the Dairy Farmers of Canada.
The British Milk Marketing
Board and National Milk Pub-
liicity Council will launch its
biggest sales effort ever, dur-
ing the coming year, to increase
sales of milk, cream and cheese.
The total eampaign will cost
$6.14 nnilli.on (Canadian Money)
The reasons given for this
campaign are: 1. increasing
competition, especially from ae
broad, for a share of the house-
wife's purse. (note farmers in
Canada have been able to eh-
tain a, Smaller share of conaten-
ere' dollar than in any other ,
coniparable country); 2. the

Thrifty Kipponettes
The fourth meeting of the
.Thrifty Kippenettes was held at
the home of Marilyn Tremeer
on February 4. The meeting
was opened by repeating the
4-H pledge. After Gail Fmlay-
son had read the minutes of the
last meeting, Sharon McBride
There are several cases of
chicken pox in the district.
Social Evening
The Women's Auxiliary of St.
James Anglican Church, Mid-
dleton, plan to hold a social
evening in SS No. 9 (Tipperary)
schoolhouse on Friday evening,
February 11. There will be
euchre and some "delicacies”
for sale. Everyone welcome.
Owing to severe weather con-
ditions the party planned for
last Friday night was called off.
So let us make this, one a big
success.
St. James W.A.
The Women's Auxiliary of
St. James Anglican Church,
Middleton, met, on Wednesday
afternoon, February 1, at the
home of the president, Mrs.
Milton Steeps and 14 ladies
were present.
Mrs. Steepe opened the meet-
ing with a lovely poem "To the
Year this is Still New," Mrs.
John Grigg read the Scripture
lesson from St. Luke 8: 1-15.
The members' prayer and the
Lord's Prayer in unison were
followed by the prayer part-
ners' prayer given by Mrs. Don-
ald Middleton
The minutes were read by
Mrs. Oliver Cole and the roll
call word was "praise." The
treasurer's report was present-
ed by Mrs. A. Dutot.
Mrs. Arnold Miller reported
that the Dorcas requirements
were being met. Mrs, Steepe
thanked the ladies for the sue-
kets for greater supplies. (note
in Canada, from many of the
meetings I have attended rec-
ently, it seems that we are
dedicated to a policy of reduced
production in spite of the fact
that dieticians tell us that the
average diet in both the upper
and lower income brackets is
not adequate); 3. to maintain
and guard the existing markets.
Emphasis will be on the fluid
market and for this the British
Board's television campaign will
be about £600,000, The use of
vending machines will be in-
creased to make milk More
available, At this time last
year there were 1700 vending
machines in operation; by the
end of this year there will be
4,000 which means some 8 mil-
lion gallons, a year more milk
sales.
The Board has 20 mobile bars
and during the past season th-
ese Dairy Bars were at 1,200
outdoor events such as air dis-
plays, agricultural fairs, flower
shows, etc. (note —there was
only one fain which I attended
in the county last fall that had
dairy products readily avail-
able).
Additional efforts' will also
be placed on increasing sales
at the doorstep. Sales drives
this year have included over
10,000 milk salesmen serving 8
million homes. These drives reg-
ularly increase milk sales by 1.
to 2 %. The cream, promotions
have had special success —
sales having risen 30% with the
great potential still to be ex-
ploited. (Note — Canada's
dairy surplus is 2%) Which
solution to the Dairy Problem
do you prefer?

is being held in St, Paul's Ang-
lican Church, Clinton, this year
and it was decided that as many
members as possible would at-
tend and also to take the part

Mrs. Jack Cole presented a
short program consisting of two
interesting poems, "Company"
and "To Increase Happiness."

well to the request for warm

peal that a large bale of such
articles was packed at this
meeting,
