Canada's Sugar Situation,
During the last seVen months of
the year Canadian consumers will
receive nine.onndh of sugar with
P g
a further .10 pounds permitted for
canning purposes. Allowances are
divided as follows: rune, Jelly,
August, October and December, one
pound each with two pounds =being
granted 'in Septeluber•' and Novem-
ber. Reductions ,effected to meet`the
decreased supply will be shared by
civilian consumers; members of the
Armed Perces, - all industries and
quota users.
Answering complaints about the
use of sugar by breweries the
Ration Administration has . announ-
ced that no sugar is used for the
brewing of- beer or hard liquor in
Canada. At the beginning of the
present •year the world's stock of
sugar totalled 4,100,900 tons, the
lowest in many years. By the end of
the year the worlds supply will be
down to three million tons. Canada's
surely is cut 184 million pounds.
While' an increase in sugar beet
production in Canada would increase
the . total amount of • sugar in the
world pool Canada would have to
share the increase with the other
nations drawing 'on the pool. Inerease
to Canadians would, it is estimated,
authoritatively, approximately one
fifth of a pound per person per year.

'COMPOSITION IN LANDSCAPES
tel
Landscapes like this are everywhere
PPCRTUNITIPIS for making pic-
torial 'landscapes are endless'
because of nature's infinite variety.
One need merely cultivate the pic-
torial eye and use it through all the
seasons o1the year to gather a har-
vest of beaatiful pictures.
Cultivation of the pictorial eye
means to practice the, art of looking
for pictorial material. For, In the
• last analysis, it is the point of view
that determines how much beauty
Me finds in the world. Frons, the
standpoint of inaking pictures—in,
photography as in any 'other picto-
rial . art. --the viewpoint is of :the
• utmost`' importance. Pictures are
everywhere; but 11 requires,peesis-
tent effort to find them. Nature does
not reveal, her best to careless eyes.
Good comiiosition'is or the utmost
importance in landscape photogra-
phy. But don't let that scare you.
Good composition really means that
the lines and masses :oflight and
dark areas in a picture should be
harmoniously arranged. It means
' that the eye'should be guided easily
into the picture area and allowed to
weeder around it harmoniously.
• Today's picture Is a good' example,
The eye, enters the picture in the
right foreground. All the, lines of
the Toad and fence 'then lead 'the
eye .to the .center of interest --the
barn just below the road's level. The
elope of the bank at left and the
trees on. either side keep the eye
front wandering out of the platen
area. Note that "center of interest"
does not mean the center of the pie-
tune. The center of interest can be
placed anywhere in the picture area,
but everything else should be inci-
dental, and should lead the eye to 11.
When yon are hiking through the
11 you'll train your eye to find them.
country with your camera keep thls
idea of"center of interest" in mind.
When you see a scene that interests
you, ask yourself what aspect 01
the scene first caught your interest.
Then concentrate on that. Look 'at it
through your finder from a number
of vantage noble; seeking the one
which beat utilizes the surrounding
territory as contributory to the main
objeet or group of objects. Find the
approach in which the lines or con-
tours of road or 'field or fence am
pear to lead the eye toward the
subject that first caught your inter-
est. When you have found it make
your exposure. Your composition,
whether you know the rules or not, .
will probably be satisfactory.
The best landscapes are those in
which we see or feel the presence '
of people. A natural setting may be
beautiful in itself bur the Nand of
man adds human interest. This does
not mean that the need people, in a,
landscape. A vide expanse of track-
less snow with trees Basting' long.
shadows may be beautiful, 'bet the
picture detinitely takes on added
interest if the smooth surface -of the,
snow is broken by the footprints of
a man. - •
In today's picture there is no 1iv-
ing''person present, but tbereais the
barn built by luau; and if you were
to remote the bare there would stili
be the fence, and without the fence
the tracks in the snow would be evi-
dence enough that people bad been
through there. All these quarks of
man evoke images because of the
suggestion of life, So in your land-
seapes look. foe the evidences o1)
human life if you would increase
their interest,
