If YOU waste THEY want!
Itmay seem tough, when you're
making good wages, to go on
-*caring old clothes. Eut it
would be a good deal tougher
if our boys overseas didn't get
the supplies they need. So
please remember the United
Nations have only so many
ships, trains and machines.
Anything wasted here means
shortage somewhere else.

An experiment which may revolutionize British farming has bees
undertaken by scientists at the University Farm, Shinfield, Berkshire
The first batch of calves has been produced there by artificial in.
semination. If these test tube calves ,grow up into fine, sturdy
cattle, working farmers in future will not keep their own bulls. Her;

HOGS ON FARMS
ALL TIME RECORD
Number of hogs on farms in Canada
at December 1, 1943, reached the high-
est level in all time. The total of
9,473,000 head represents an increase
of 1,723,000 head, or 22 per cent, over
the corresponding date for 1942. The
increase was common to all provinces
with the exception of Ontario and was
particularly marked in the three
Prairie Provinces. The high number
of hogs on farms at December 1, has
been reflected in marketings during
the first two months of 1944 and in-
dicates that marketings are likely to
continue heavy throughout the first .
six months of 1944.

UNAFRAID OF THE BLITZ
(By C. J. Allbon, Jr.)
Those who are afraid the Blitz is
going to have a serious effect on the
children of Britain would have been
greatly relieved had they accompanied
me to an area where bombing has de-
stroyed many homes-often five at a
time-while damaging many 'others.
Visiting relatives in the southeast
of England, only a short distance from
London, I was having tea with my
friends in the late afternoon when a
child of fifteen arrived and smilingly
informed her grandparents that she
and her mother would have to spend
some time with them as the windows
of their home had practically all been
blown out and the house was rather
in, a mess-the result of Saturday
night's raid which was aimed at Lon-
don but failed to reach the city.
Frustrated, and to lighten their plane
for 'a fast get-away, the Germans un-
loaded their bombs helter skelter and
some fell- close to the child's home
WITH OUR WEEKLY NEWSPAPER
REPRESENTATIVES OVERSEAS
with devastating results.
What interested me mostly was the
casual attitude of the child. There
was no weeping; no bitterness; the
home had been damaged too badly for
them to remain while repairs were be-
ing effected they turned to
friends-and the welcome was warm,
for no one in the', British Isles knows
when their home may bear the brunt
of the attack and they, too, may be
literally on the street.
To one who had not been called
upon to experience the .loss of home
and probably many treasures, the at-
titude of these English folk towards
bombing was extremely; interesting.,
Even though some one near and dear
to them had been' driven from their
home they were pleased that "Jerry"
had failed to reach his, objective. We
Canadilins have heard and read much
about the spirit of the English, people,
but it does something to you when you
are close to it and watch it at work.
It is quite evident that we do not
need to worry about the effect of the
war on the children of Britain7--they
are taking it like veterans of the line.
Missed the Raid
We arrived in London only an hour
after the raid was over and the cabby,
telling us about it on the way to the
hotel, said'"It weren't a half bad show;
them guns put up a powerful barrage
-one of the best seen 'ere in a long
time".
From our conversation it appeared
there,was more danger from flak than
from the Huns. Three planes were
brought down. It was interesting to
learn later that the main effort is to
throw enough flak into the sky to
block the path- of the enemy and force
him into the open country where the
night fighters go to work and do their
best, to shoot him down before he gets
across the channel. Shooting planes
down over London creates consider-
able damage and loss of life, in the
area where they fall.
In the one area visited we saw for
the first time some of the damage
caused by the raid Saturday. What
was said to have been a bomb struck
the sidewalk in a rather open area and
penetrated far into the ground. The
concrete was cut as cleanly for a
.,•••••
diameter of about eighteen inches as
you would cut the top off a tin can.
A few feet away the road.was chipped
by ahother missle but not seriously.
A house nearby showed the effects of
previous bombing, only the walls
walls standing. Across the street a
whole block of homes stood unharmed.
