T. Scott, Head Poul tryman, Dominion Experimental Sta tion, Harrow, Ont. It was generally believed that by lengthening the day by several hours a longer feeding per iod wotild be provided and a greater yield of eggs would be the result. However, recent research has demon strated that the use of artificial light provides a stimulation to the process of ovulation and, though contributing to the increase in egg yield, the great er amount of feed consumed is a sec- ‘ondary factor. Under normal conditions the great est egg yield is during the long day light of midsummer, when the birds have the advantage of fourteen to fif teen hours of light. Yields of an egg a day are not uncommon at this sea son, so we may take this to be the length of day necessary for optimum results. In a recent experiment at the Har row Experimental Station the limit of light was tested when'the birds were' subjected to all-night lights the year round. Two hundred and fifty Barred Plymouth Rock pullets that were giv en fourteen hours light laid an aver age of 249,7 eggs in 365 days, while a flock of two hundred pullets of equal breeding subjected to twenty-four hours of light averaged only 214 eggs per hir'd. The loss in yield was due primarily to a great increase in broodiness with the birds that had the lights all night. For the best results the fall, win ter, ahd early spring days may be lengthened to about twelve or four teen . hours by the use of artificial light morning and night. Provincial and private organizations interested in its promotion, an inter departmental committee has been ap pointed by the Canadian Government under the chairmanship of Colonel V. I. Smart, Deputy Minister of Trans port. The economic importance of the tourist traffic to Canada js more gen erally appreciated this year than ever before and plans and policies formu lated by the new inter-departmental committee are expected to have an important bearing on the tourist traf fic in 1941. Colonel Smart stated that formation of the inter-depart,mental committee was not a new venture, but rather'-'an upward step in the govern mental policy of unifying the various agencies interested in travel. The Canadian Travel Bureau is the federal organization responsible for the en couragement of tourist traffic and has worked in close co-operation with all other tourist agencies in the Domin ion. The adverse effect of the war upon travel generally and precaution ary measures incidental thereto, has made necessary the formation of the committee which- includes representa tives of different governmental de partments dealing with customs, pass ports, foreign exchange and commerc ial intelligence. "This committee/ said. Colonel Smart, “will welcome suggestions from the various bodies interested in the promotion of tourist traffic, to en able it to formulate a vigorous and aggressive policy for the 1941 tourist season. The committee is not intend ed to supercede any existing tourist bodies, but instead will attempt to co-ordinate and assist the efforts be ing made by all travel organizations, both public and private, throughout Canada.” Members of the inter-departmental committee are: Colonel V. I...Smart, Deputy Minister of Transport, (chair man); D. Leo Dolan, Chief of the Canadian Travel Bureau, (deputy chairman); L. D. Wilgress, Director of the .Commercial Intelligence Serv ice; A. McD. McBain, Chief of the Public Relations of the Foreign Ex change Board; W. A. Mackintosh, Special Assistant to the Deputy Min ister of Finance; and Philias Cote of the Motion Pictrue Bureau.

Desirous of haying the nuptial ceremony performed by a clergyman who was spending his holi days on Prince Edward Island but who could not legally act without ob taining special authority because of the fact that the eager couple held a New Brunswick marriage license, the marriage ceremony was performed on board the Canadian National Rail ways car ferry “Charlottetown” while laying at the dock here. The master of the car ferry, Captain John Read, stepped into the breach and granted permission for the ceremony to take place on his ship. And so everybody was happy. The “Charlottetown” is the largest ice-breaking car ferry in the world and maintains communication across the strait of Northumberland between the mainland and the island province. Besides ferrying trains across the Strait, the car ferry has a special au tomobile deck capable of taking care of from 45 to 50 motor cars. The ice breaking feature is to maintain com munication during the winter season when at times there are heavy ice conditions. The strait at the point of crossing is about nine miles in width.

William Newton, of Gorrie, Defence counsel Campbell Grant, of Walkerton, contended that there was insufficient evidence to uphold a manslaughter charge. He pointed out ..that, there was no-evidence of.exces sive speed. Robert Dickson, wavy-haired, nat tily-dressed stock salesman, formerly of Kitchener and Listowel, pleaded guilty at Goderich to the theft by conversion of $2,200 in securities from clients. He was remanded in custody for one week when Crown Attorney Holmes told the court that in future, on instructions from Attorney-Gener al Conant, sworn evidence might be ’ taken in major cases before sentence is passed, where pleas of. guilty are entered. Dickson must also face three similar charges in Perth County. Dickson’s victims yere two women, Mary Jane Harris, of Howick Town ship, who lost $700, and Elizabeth Cameron, of Stanley Township, who lost $1,500. In both cases .the women were said to have handed, over gilt- edged securities, chiefly Dominion of Canada bonds, and were promised longer-dated Government bonds and a cash, difference in return. Neither were ever delivered, Dickson cashing the bonds he received and disappear ing. He was arrested in Saskatoon..
