Cheese for Export Trade Exports of cheese from the chief exporting countries of the world, reckoned by value, account for only a very small proportion of total ex­ ports from these countries; in New Zealand, where the proportion is highest, it amounted to little more than 8 per cent, in 1937. The-pro- portion has declined in recent years in New Zealand, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Italy, but has re­ mained fairly constant in Canada, where however it amounts to only one per cent, of the total Canadian exports. as Star-Phoenix re- his career as fol- and other organ- Beef Cattle Trend Numbers of cattle on farms in -Can­ ada at June 1, 1939, are expected to show a further reduction from those of 193 8, states the Agricultural Sit­ uation and Outlook.

YOUR FAVORITE Tobacca acreage in Canada in­ creased by 20.7 per cent, in 193 8 and the crop of 9 6 million pounds was the largest ever havested. The main expansion was in the flue-cured producing area of Ontario, where the increase was undertaken with a view of replenishment of depleted stocks of old leaf and to provide for an an­ ticipated greater demand in United Kingdom market. The higher production will result in a material the stocks of flue-cured Canada, unless there is a substantial expansion oi’ exports to the United Kingdom. There was a sharp in­ crease in exports to the United King­ dom during 19 38 over 1937 but this was attributed to the relatively short stocks of Canadian tobacco in the United Kingdom at that time and to the fact that there was in Canada a large supply of high grade leaf from the 19 3 7 crop available for export. Stocks in the United Kingdom are now large and a recurrence of the heavy exports of 19 3 8 is considered unlikely for 1939. The flue-cured crop is largely mar­ keted through grower-buyer arrange­ ments. The negotiated minimum average price for the 19 3 8 crop was set at 22.5 cents per pound or 2 cents below the 19 37 minimum average. The 1937 crop was actually sold at 27.3 cents per pound or 2.8 cents above the negotiated minimum price. Since 1936 there has been a general tendency for prices to decline as a consequence of the rapid increase in production, «• Current Farm Report • The alert reader will recognize at once that here is a golden opportunity to obtain the outstanding subscription bargain of the year.

But that has happened and today he is widely known on Western network as the “Cowboy Yodeller.”* Wally Walper is the youngest son of the late Louis Walper, who lived on the London Road a short distance south of Hensail. His mother now lives in Saskatoop. The Saskatoon ferred recently to lows: “Service clubs izations which meet w’eekly are for­ tunate in being able to secure the services of artists who may other­ wise not be heard by the general public. In the last few days two or three have ha'd an oportunity of hearing Wally Walper, styled in the Eastern radio broadcasts as “The Cowboy Yodeller”. “Possessed of a natural tenor voice of sweet quality, his appearances here singing popular and standard as well as cowboy songs have won a good reception. “Mr. Walper, who is visiting his mother and family at 407 Avenue D. south, spent his early youth in Sas­ katoon, where he attended public school. It was the depression that landed him into radio. He had*liked nothing better than to strum his uke and sing at concerts, but his ambi­ ion was to team up with another and appear on regular broadcasts. “It was the ‘popular appeal of cow­ boy songs that won him his first broadcast in Winnipeg in 1930. Since that time he has travelled far. For the past eight years Mr. Walpei- has been presented on local and national networks from Saskatoon to Halifax. His personality as much as his voice has endeared him to his audiences. “During the 193 4 season the Sas­ katoon singer was a featured mem­ ber of the Bert Anstice “Mountain Boys” who held the CROM fanmail for a lengthy period. Later he was heard from Kirkland Lake. Then he joined the Don Messer national net­ work program. Since then he has sung from Montreal, Saint John and ;m.any other points, appearing on the broadcast programs such as the “New Brunswick Breakdown” the “.Fundy Fantasy” and the “Mirror of Music” and the wellknown “Fan­ fare.” “The title of ‘cowboy yodeller’ is somewhat of a misnomer. Making several appearances in the United States,, Mr. Walper surprised them with his versatility. Phil Cook, who wanted to use him on his radio pro­ gram, told im he was the first sing­ er he had heard who could jump from standard songs to cowboy and yodeling. “A ‘traight’ singer at first, the Saskatonian soon learned that floor show audiences enjoyed variety. He would get requests for a cowboy song or a yodel and as a result he is now able to fill any request. “During the first year Mr. Walper has been and is now under contract which gives not only plenty of scope for his talent, but also takes him on enviable 'cruises to distant latads. In the summer months he is featured wih a six-piece drqhestra on passen­ ger ships that ply along the New- Afraid to Eat Square Meal What a worry he must have been to his wife! No food agreed with him. Acid indigestion made him positively wretched. In this letter, his wife tells how he got welcome relief: "My husband developed a wretch­ ed form of gastric acidity,” she writes. ’’Meals were a misery to him. He often could not sleep for heart­ burn. Business kept him from home a great deal, but when he did get a spell at home, I gave him Kruschen Salts. I was amazed at the results. That weary look left his face, and his digestion gradually disappeared. It is a treat to hear, him say, ’I'm hungry.’ It seems too good to be true.”—i(Mrs.) K.M.E. The numerous salts in Kruschen help to promote a natural flow of the disestive and other vital juices of the body. 'Soon after you start on Kruschen, you will find that you are able to enjoy your food without dis- tiessing after-effects. And as you per­ severe with the “little daily doses,” you will see that Kruschen brings glorious relief. even dozen to the Ontario Convention, by E. of the New York Apple Institute. Lunch Box.

For relieving discomforts of Vchest colds and night coughs, rub VapoRub on throat, chest and back at bedtime, VapoRub’s poul­ tice-vapor action relieves local congestion-eases muscular sore­ ness or tightness—helps the youngster relax into restful sleep. For coughing and irritated *throat caused by colds, put VapoRub on the child’s tongue. It melts, trickles slowly down­ bathes the throat with soothing medication. Then massage VapoRub on throat and chest. For “sniffles" and misery of er head colds, melt a spoonful of VapoRub in a bowl of boiling water. Have the child breathe in the steaming vapors. This loosens phlegm, clears air-passages, makes breathing easier. Also mas­ sage VapoRub on throat and chest.

Prac­ tically all of the silver fox pelts came from the fur farms, and probably a third of the mink pelts may be cred­ ited to farms. This phase of the fur industry has -developed rapidly during the past fifteen yiears or more the number of fur farms advancing from less than a thousand in 1920 to more than 8,000 at the end of 1936. The fur trade, which at one time- .was predominant among 'Canadian industries, has Receded into a less important position with the indus- rialization of the country and the greater development of natural re­ sources. Nevertheless, the fur in­ dustry still plays an important part in the lives of many Canadian, the continued demand for furs of both, common and luxury varieties keep­ ing fur trappers tively engaged. Canada’s raw ing the 193 6-37 of $16,666,000 as against $15,465,- 000 in the previous season and $12,- 843000 in 1934-35. represent the value of the pelts of fur-bearing animals as taken by the fur trappers and fur farmers actively engaged in the business.
