Nelson Cunningham Josephine St. Wingham How do you read character? Whether or not you believe in any system of "character analysis", you can always tell something about the character of a man simply from the fact that he owns life insurance. This fact alone tells you, for instance, that he is a good pro- vider. For here is proof that he feels genuine concern for the future welfare of his family—a concern that usually reflects a considerate nature. It's pretty reliable evidence, too, that he is thrifty, fore- sighted, realistic—and a Cood credit risk. To his employer, his ownership of life insurance suggests readiness to assume responsibility—an attitude that will carry him toward success in any job. And, if he is using his life insurance to build income for his later years, you can be quite sure that he's the self-reliant type. No relatives or public welfare organization will ever have to support him! All in all, you'll find that most of the solid citizens in any community own life insurance! AT YOUR SERVICE .?

THE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA "It's Good Citizenship to own Life insurance" L-3520 wohioaday, August 3.4th, 1952 a WINGHAM ADVANCEIMEs The Fannies Mill by Bob Carbert 4 "Consider the laggard, he sows not, ,neither shall he reap", How true that .But Western Ontario farmers are Oot laggards, as can be gathered as you drive around the ,,sountryside theme days Watching the-:)harvesting OPerations. Our 'Tillers of the Soil", •sre busy now, working as "Gleaners Of the Grain'',' and you'll see just .about every conceivable method of harvest at work in the fields, You'll Come in! See and drive the newest ; . finest; most glamorous Oldsmobiles ever—the Classic "98" and the Super "88". You'll discover, first of all, their new high standard of beauty and luxury, including sumptuous upholstery, handsomely color- matched interiors and exteriors, and a meticulous attention to every single detail of craftsmanship. Then, as you glide smoothly over the open road, night-time comes, you have little trouble sleeping, No need to count sheep, Sometimes tempers are short, patience runs out, and nerves become frayed, but the harvest must go on. There are lighter moments too, Like the day you ran over the skunk with the binder, or the time the jack rabbit was caught in the elevator canvas, and came out the knotter tied up in a sheaf. Remember the time the city slielter came out for his holidays, and tried to stook the wheat on a windy day , Everyone gets a kick out of the way the family collie hunts relentlessly for rats and mice under the stooks. With an appetite that is never quenched, he nuzzles under every sheaf and every stook. With a quick jump and a snap another re., dent has been disposed of. The odd rah bit jumps up and provides him with a longer run, but he'll be hack In a moment, under your feet, looking for more mice. Remember the time the hired man let the head of his fork go through the threshing machine? What a noise, what a mess, what a fuss. Arid the cows that slip through the open gate into the grain fields, and tear down the stooks before you notice them, The chickens that gather under the wagons to pick up the crickets, The hens that wander into the barn during the evening, and then have to be chased out fn the morning. I once heard of A mother cat, who had kittens on the deck of threshing Machine during the night. IruckliY, she and her family were discovered in the nick of time, Harvest time Is exciting on the farm. It's busy but It's fun. "As you sow, so shall you reap", and the harvest is a fair indication of whether you have done your best or not, Floor Price For Cattle to Continue The present floor price for cattle will continue through September, it was announced last week by the fed- eral minister of agriculture. The min- ister added that, despite rumours to the contrary, a support price for cattle would continue for the duration of the United States embargo against Canadian cattle. If any change is made in the floor price to apply after September, announcement will be made before the end of that month. Reviewing the recent record of cattle marketings and beef purchases, it was pointed out that in the early weeks of July the Prices Support Board received as much as 3,5 million pounds of beef per week for shipment to Britain. Because beef supplies since mid-July have been very little more than the amount required by the Canadian market, it has been possible to reduce Board purchases to about 750,000 pounds a week. During the next few weeks, depending on cattle marketings, Board purchases may he further reduced. Since the inauguration of the beef exchange plan with Great Britain and New Zealand, the Prices Support Board has purchased approximately 45 million pounds of beef for ship- ment to the U.K. This represents about three-quarters of the amount estimated to be required to offset diversions of New Zealand beef to the United States during the present alendar year. Any reduction in cur- refit buying will help to conserve the balance of the contract for delivery later in the season when cattle mar- ketings are likely to he heavier than at present. The minister stressed, and again emphasized the desirability of farm- ers continuing to hold their cattle on their farms. He expressed the view that, with good pasture conditions and ample feed supplies in most parts of the country, farmers were themselves, in a position to-control the marketing situation effectively until the U.S. em- bargo is lifted and general trade in livestock and meat products is re-es- tablished. Conservation Corner A Peeled Birch Tree Defaced it stands: I do not know your name, who peeled this birch-bark tree, but oh, the shame, You wanted on a bit of bark to send A maudlin little message to a friend? To make a napkin ring or some such trash? And so with pocket-knife you needs must gash A ghastly wound, and peel a birch- bark tree. Out of my thoughts, 0 you, who'ere you be! —Margaret Clarke Russel. Few trees in the Province -of On- tario are as beautiful as the paper birch; it is tinfortunate that so an of them along our highways, lakes and streams have been :stripped 44 their bark. The thin papery bark proteota the three from drying out and from attach by Insects and disease. When the bark is peeled off, the inner Parts of the trees are exposed to these enemies which often cause death. Even if the tree does not die its beauty is marred forever, Birch bark is used in craft work and if you require it for this purpose obtain your supply from a wood pile where no harm can be done. Although the birch is not our most valuable timber tree it does have Many commercial uses and when its scenic beauty is also considered, it deserves better treatment than it is getting at present. Next time you are in the out-of- doors with the children, take a few minutes and explain to them just how serious a mistake It is to peel the birches, ST. HELENS (Intended for Jut Week.)
