If you run short of water in the late
summer on your farm, you can probably
cure the trouble for good with a
well-placed farm pond.
Built where it will catch the spring
run-off, your farm pond would provide a
ready supply of drinking water for
your cattle and a useful reservoir in times
of drought. It’s a boon to any type
of farming, as many Canadian farmers
have already discovered.
Don’t let a shortage of ready cash delay
this or any other farm improvement
that will make your farm a better farm.
Discuss your needs with your local
B of M manager. He’ll gladly tell you
what a Farm Improvement
Loan can do for your
farm —• how it can boost
your profits and save
you time and work.

Scientists Explore Lake Huron
To Study Water Movements
What is the temperature struc-
re of a lake? What are the
mass water movements -which
separate the lake into “layers,
each of them distinct and apart
from the other? What effect do
they have on the incubation and
spawning habits of fish? What
can be done'about it?
These are some of the quest
ions -which may be answered by

Truckload Of Instruments
Actually it was dark
Ferguson and Miller arrived with
their truckload of instruments
and containers, and long after
midnight before the biologist and
the skipper had drawn up
course to be followed when
light came. A short course

Ferguson said, if the weather was
clear a longer run would be
made. The weather was clear and

One mile above the Blue Water
Bridge, the first stop was made
to take surface temperatures of
the water. The start had been
made at seven a.m., despite the
late work the night before. Sur
face temperatures were simple—
Harris simply dipped a pail of
water from over the side and
both he and Ferguson read the
thermometer to make sure there
were no errors. This was the
procedure at every miles.
At seven miles, however, the
process was more involved. First
Miller tossed dye cans overboard.
These were a simple gadget in
vented by Dr. F. E. J. Fry, head
of the research project for
tario, and Ferguson. A small
on the bottom pf a larger
contained the green dye. It
punctured. A long cord and sink
er were wound around the up
per can—which kept the appara
tus afloat. As the cord unwound,
it twisted the can in the water
and distributed the dye.
Use Plastic Bottles
•Meanwhile, Harris cast plastic
drift bottles overboard. These, it
is hoped, will be picked up by
fishermen, swimmers and others
along the Lake Huron beaches.
They contain a postpaid post
card to be mailed into the Re
search Institute, giving the loca
tion and time at which the bottle
was found. These will be acknow
ledged on receipt if a return ad
dress is included.
Then Ferguson lowered the
valuable bathythermograph into
the lake, first making sure it was
adequately secured to the boat.
The bathythermograph records,
on smoked glass slides, the depths
and temperature of the various
water layers. As the biologist
brought it back aboard, he care-
fullj' numbered each slide, using
a nail.
Meanwhile, Miller was lower
ing and raising the water samp
ler, an ingenious gadget with
trapdoors at each end. This was
dropped almost to the bottom of
the lake and the doors closed by
a “messenger,” a brass weight
which drops down the line and
trips the catches which hold the
doors open. The water, trapped
inside, was then carefully re
leased into containers, some con
taining preservative, and all

Despite Blindness
Merchant Active
Mr. Orville Frayne. of Forest,
who is well-known to many in
this community, leads a full and
active life in spite of the fact
that he has been blind for the
past 40 years as a result of be
ing hit in the eyes with a piece
of salt when he was a child.
Ever since he left the Canad
ian National Institute for the
Blind in Brantford, he has been
self-supporting.
In 1923 he opened up a store
in Forest where he sells tobacco,
cigarettes, soft drinks and hund
reds of other items which he can
take from the shelf for his cus
tomers with the accuracy
sighted person.
Mr. Frayne does his own
ing and laundry.
His favorite pastime is a
of cards. He punches Braille
marks on his cards and the other
players announce what cards they
are playing. He also enjoys horse
racing.
Besides keeping his store, Mr.
Frayne finds time to buy cattle,
sheer sheep, make leather belts,
rubber mats and magazine racks
and repair cane-bottomed and
wicker chairs,
A friend of 20 years standing
said of Mr. Frayne: “If he had
