'butter is too low, and likely to enpdurage not only a scarcity of this vitaLproduet hitt also sharp increases in price. Thomas Byrns, of Forest, On- tario, said the floor price had remained rt the same level for some time,, while farmers' pro- dliction costs had risen sharply. Not •only had labor costs in. creased, but there had been ri. 'Res in prices for articles far, inners have to buy, and last year's growing weather, which cut the .nutritional content of feed crops, had added a furthur burden by making necessary more supple nentary feeding, WOODHAM SUNDAY SCHOOL Anniversary Services Sunday, May 19 11:00 a,m.—Rev, Glenn Eagle, B.A.B.D., Clinton 1:30 p.m.—By the Pastor Wednesday, May 22—Supper will be served in the Orange Hall commencing at 5.30 followed by a p r o g r a m.

They will only get more -money for their efforts when a scarcity has brought about .a sadden price increase," And that, he said, was the very thing farriers wanted to avoid. Spiralling butter prices would not only hurt the consumer through reduced consumption, they would hit the farmer too. The last time Canada had a butter shortage, butter was Im- ported and a surplus piled up which did- no-one any good for some time. "What we want," said Mr. l3Yrns, "is a floor price that will encourage production sufficient- ly for producers to keep pace with increased demand," Steadily increasing butter con- sumption, Plus a drop in produc- tion, has been the cause of con- cern among members of the Ontario Cream Producers' Mar- keting Board. Board Chairman Byrns said production has fallen off sharply in January, but consumption, fi- gures had shown a steady climb. "This," he said, is the type of thing producers must do their utmost to avoid if an orderly marketing program is to be con- tinued. It can only lead to a con- dition of scarity which will anta- gonize the consumer, and do ab- solutely nothing for the produ- cer." He appealed to farmers who might have considered herd re- ductions to change their minds, pointing to a growing market and a shrinking dairy herd popu- lation.

He's serious about it. Joey isn't like the average teen- age boy. He takes no interest in sports nor in school activities. His sole interest lies in science, astronomy and weathercraft. Long before he. could read a word, Joey would bring large science books home from the li- brary and spend hours studying the pictures and diagrams. Even though he couldn't read the charts, he somehow learned all about the solar system: He became such an expert that he's in demand• as a public speaker. Already he has divulg- ed some of the fascinating facts about astronomy to Lucan Horne and School Association and the Men's Club of Holy Trinity Ang- lican church. • Instead of buying pop or candy, Joey saves his nickles and dimes for books on astronomy and equipment for his weather sta- tion. He became interested in out- er space three years .ago after seeing several space ship pro- grams on TV. • Shortly after, he bought a 35 - Two Accidents Damage Cars Damages totalled $150 Satur- day when cars driven by Charles Montieth, Huron St., and June' Bierling, Main St., collided at the interesection of Main and Sanders. The Montieth car was crossing the highway to the west when struck by the Bierling car which was travelling south, Police Chief Reg Taylor investigated. A late model. car, owned by J. A. Irwin, . Exeter, was demol- ished Sunday when it crashed into a pole south of Exeter. OPP Constable John Porde, Exeter, estimated damage at $2,000. Mr. Irwin, who was driv- ing, is employed at .RCAF Sta.- tion Centralia. Wit.... A roan was having lunch with a friend of his and they were discussing the romance of a young ifellow and girl they each knew. "What do you think of their getting married?" asked one man: 'Well, it's all' right, 1 guess," was the reply, "but it's too bad that Jim and his girl aren't good enough for each other." The other man put his cup of coffee down in surprise. "Not good enough for each other?" he questioned, "What in the world makes you say a thing like that?" 'Well;'smiled the other, "I've been talking to both families." * * * * "Yes, sir," said the race horse owner from the' biggest U.S. I remember one race of es in which•my mare horses for sent, My ing cent pocket book on the subject which he still treasures, although it's well worn. , He's added to his collection since then. He has several boxes full of newspaper and magazine stories and illustrations of the solar system. His favorite planet is Saturn because it has such a beautiful ring around it. He explains that the ring is the fragments of one of Saturn's 10 moons which was blown to pieces. The young Lucan Iad failed to respond to training in reading until this year when he started taking special lessons from Miss Lina. Abbott, former school teach- er and Tines -Advocate corres- pondent in Lucan, Miss Abbott and Joey have been studying from astronomy books. • Joey established his weather - craft station last. year. He set out to make his own but found there was an old one in the vil- lage, owned by the late Magis- trate Robert Hawkshaw. He re- ceived a barometer from Santa Claus for Christmas and now is saving for a hygometer so he can tell the humidity. On April 13, the young scien- tist paid his first visit to the obser.vatory,at the University of Western Ontario. He saw the moon through a telescope and heard a lecture on it. He hopes to go back more often. According to his mother, Joey's attraction to science comes in handy around the house on oc- casion. For example, it wasn't long ago the Hodgins lost their TV aerial in a windstorm. They haven't been able to replace the aerial yet but they can still watch TV tlianks to a cigar box and wire invention of Joey's. THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF CANADA Rev. N. D.

Now sometimes the allergy, is so pronounced that there's nothing to do about it. i've known several farriers who had ao gave up rais., big chickens or turkeys because they ,got so sensitized to the dan- druff that carie off the birds. Some farmers have trouble with fertilizer dusts, which can .pause asthma, WS not easy to discover the cause of an allergy. But of a per - 'son does a bit of home detective work he may figure 'it out when doctors can't. $. Varmers abuse their joints. As a physician looks at an old farmer, he may sense. in the roan's gnarled fingers, ins bowed back and perhaps his crippled knees or hips the results of the terrible beating his .bony frame has taken during 40 years of hard work. Much of the arthritis of older persons seems to be due to the heavy wear and tear on the joints, especially the knees and hips, whose surfaces often get a pounded -over look like the top of 1 an old chisel. Unfortunately there isn't much that a farmer can do to avoid arthritis, except —.and. this is important — keeping his weight down to normal and figur- ing out as many ways as possible to let machinery and, gadgets to the heavy work. That brings nie to my last point. 9, Farmers don't get enough rest. A farmer was saying to me one day that when lie farmed with horses, he got some rest when the horses did Now there's no let-up. I wish there was some good ad- vice to give farmers about this but fear there is nothing. I am re- minded of what Huxley said when Darwin warned him that he was over-working so much that he was heading for a nervous breakdown. Huxley admitted the possibility, but said that at times he had either to over -work or to quit en- tirely. '1'o tell him to ease up was like telling a jockey not to ride so hard—he might break his neck! The Browns had searched for some hours for a place to sleep when they eventually stumbled upon a dilapidated looking hotel. They booked in ' and ' hastily made their way to bed. Sudden- ly Mrs. Brown leapt out of bed and picked tip the phone. "Are you the owner of this place?" she asked the party at the other end," "I am," was the brusque reply. "What's eating you?" "That," replied Mrs. Brown indignantly, "is just what we'd like to know?" .COMING EVENTS OPENING DANCE — Summer season, Bayfield Pavilion, Fri- day, May 17. Ken Wilbee's Or- chestra. Couples $1.00.
