Deputy Chief Ranger we -ars distinctive new spruce green uniform issued for ease identification. - The Government and The Farmer (From The Rural Scene) - What can the Government do for the farmers that they can't do for themselves? Ever since Confederation the Government of Canada has been rendering valuable services to the farming industry. Through its ex- perimental farms and its 'research laboratories it, has done invaluable work in combating plant diseases and livestock diseases. It has or- iginated and imported new vari- eties of plants suited to our clim- ate. It has developed better meth- ods of soil cultivation and of fight- ing weeds and insect pests. It has encouraged the importation and breeding of better livestock. It has established standards and grading systems that give our faun products a reputation for depend- ability wherever they are sold; and it has kept the fanners informed of the needs of the markets. In short it has helped the farmer in every way to become a better farmer. It has done all this without interfering inthe farmers affairs or infringing his rights as an in- dividual. Until recently it. ,has never at- tempted to influence prices or to control marketing, except in war- time. • The farmers have profited great- ly from these services and a mu- tual respect has grown up between them and the government officials. But the beating farm prices took during the depression, when there seemed to be no demand at all for farm products, and the efforts of the G.overnments of other cotin- tries . to praise farm prices above the ,market levet, have given our fa me'rs the notion that something could be done to assure them of prices based on the producer's needs rather than on the bargain- ing of the market. The popular idea among farm organizations is to establish pro- ducer controlled marketing boards with monopolistic control over the marketing of the products assign- ed to them, and power to order the farmers to deliver or withhold their products according to the needs or the strategy of the board, and also - with power to order the farmers to curtail production if, in the boards' opinion, such action would - help to raise prices. Many farmers look favorably oq, these marketing schemes because they believe that they would assure therm a fair return for their efforts, and at the same time relieve then of the responsibility., of selling their own crops. There are a few things the fann- ers- should consider carefully be- fore . committing themselves to a system of marketing that might be hard to get rid of, once it is established. The first is*that the depression, during which farm prices took such a beating, was not eaused by, the farmers, or 'by the bargaining of the open market. It was caused by the policies of governments, not of any one government, but of r -governments the world over. The second is, governments did not succeed in, getting us out of the depression. In spite of every- thing they could do, prices of,farm products remained at depression levels till war broke out and gave the governments something else to think about. Then farm prices began to recover. The third thing is •that all these proposed marketing schemes in- volve control over thefarmer's business by some board or other authority over which the individ- ual farmers can have no control. Jeremy Bentham once wrote that "Boards are screens. The action of a board is the action of nobody and no one can be held responsible for it." No matter how badly a marketing board might mismanage 'the marketing of a farmer's crop he could do nothing about it. He couldn't even refuse to deliver his next crop to the same board. If each individual farmer to be covered by one of these marketing scherlles were asked to make an irrevocable assignment of his crops for a period of years to a board of men who know no more about marketing than he does himself, and the assignment stipulated that he agreed to accept as payment ' in full, whatever such board secur- ! ed fbr the crop, how many farmers - would sign it? - I When these schemes are being organized the farmers are not asked to make an irrevocable as- I signment. But . when once a Scheme is approved every farmer in the district covered - is bound just as tightly as if he had signed such a document; and he is bound even if he voted against the scheme. - The fourth thing to consider is whether it would be good business for the farmers to extract more than market prices for their pro- ducts even if they could do it. Many Canadian industries have been finding it so easy to raise their prices in these boom times that. they have, grown careless about keeping their costs down; and now they are finding that their business is falling off because they can't compete in the market. The market price is the price goods are worth to the- people ,who buy them; and the time seems to have arrived when buyers can get supplies from other countries if our prices are too high. The lesson of experience is that the best service the government can render 'to agriculture is the service it has always rendered, the 'service that helps to a better un- derstanding of the production of - crops acceptable to the markets. But governmentstshould not en- courage farmers to pursue the mirage of prosperity through the controlled markets or supported prices.

A few cookies and a glass of milk will please oldsters as well as youngsters about four. o'clock if the dinner hour is late. THE QUESTION BOX .Mrs. L. A. asks: Please tell us how to freeze eggs? Answer: Select fresh eggs, day old, for freezing. Break each one separately into a clean saucer, and smell before putting through a sieve or colander. Place about five eggs in half-pint containers or 10 eggs in pint, wide-mouthed jars. We believe it. is advisable to I separate yolks from whites and !package 11 yolks with one white of an e,gg. Then package whites separately. Gently mix in -contain- er. Seal and label. Note: Eggs are thawed in un- opened package and used while still chilled, or held in refrigerator one or two days. The following proportions will give accurate mea- surement: one tablespoon of thaw- ed egg yolk. is equivalent of one egg yolk; two tablespoons thawed egg whites are equivalent to one egg white and three tablespoons of thawed whole egg are equival- ent to -one whole egg. While there are more single men than single women in every prov- inee, the proportion of unmarried men is highest in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan. In the ' Yukon there are two unmarried men for every single woman. — Quick Canadian Facts.

Vegetable or mineral fibres, for instance, pressed into a mass; can produce a pipe that has strength and can be coated or treated to resist moisture and indicate permanence. But sewage 'is more than moisture. By code definition it is "a liquid containing vegetable, mineral and animal matter". It may form corrosive gases that have an .injurious chemical actiop. A sewer pipe mast be tough to resist this -chemical attack. VITRIFIED CLAY PIPE is of the nature of glass; and glass is impervious to corrosion by acids and alkalis. This hard, vitreous pipe is produced by heat, which gives it permanence. "Bonded by fire", it is,able to resist chemical action—permanently.
