ALEiL C. LEWIS CHIEP ELECTION °PRICER ONTARIO IV, CLNTON NEWS -RECORD` THURS., JULY 29 194a The people of Ontario have much to gain from the Progressive Conservative programme, outlined by the Leader, George rew, on July €airh after months of coelsuFfcition with falrmers, rnerchonts„ drovers and all Classes of citizens all over the Province. The r 1 t 1 FIS Establish county committees of leading farmers to plan production and distribution of farm products to meet domestic and foreign demands on a profitable basis—to assure for the farmers a fairer share of the national income. 2 Eliminate speculation in livestock by converting stock yards into a province-widepublicly owned service. 3 Relieve farmers and all home owners of one-half the school taxes. 4 Revise the whole provincial tax system to stimulate home improvements and house building. To provide for every child all the education that can be usefully absorbed. 5 I r 6 Introduce such vocational training in schools as will imbue farmers' children with pride in and love for agriculture as a basic and honourable calling; and fit them to make it in their own life time a more gainful occupation than it has been in the past. 7 Educate the rising generation to earn their own living and make their own way. 8 Improve the health of children by furnishing them with adequate medical and dental care, 9 Iner'ease mothers' allowances and old age pensions. 10 Reduce the cost of electric power to farms and homes. The rural population, which in more senses than one have their feet on the ground, will approve the cote of authority and confidence which animates the Progressive Conservative platform. The farmers will welcome the advent of a strong aggressive administration to Queen's Park—an administration which will employ the most advanced economic and scientific methods to develop and utilize the agricultural, mining, forest, and other natural resources of the Province, to build up a strong provincial economy, furnish steady employment to men and women and establish social security for all classes.

The pre- sent shortage of all meats has en- tirely changed the situation. Owing to the low •cost of produc- tion, a favourable market and a quick and profitable turnover from their sale of broilers the surplus males now offer an attractive proposition for the fanner, Investigations at the Dominion Experimental Station at Harrow, Ont., have shown that healthy male chicks can be raised for the broiler market in eight to ten weeks. The amount of food required for each bird to two • pounds live weight is about six pounds. If sour skim -milk is available and some succulent green food is chopped, and the growth and quality of the meat improved. It is well to bear in mind the pro- duct is in the luxury class and that generally the customer that can affordl xuries is discriminating; consequently it is advisable to .put the broiler on the market in the most attractive "form. There will be an improvement in the • appearance and quality of the meat if the bird is thoroughly starved but given plenty of water to drink, for at least twelve hours before kill - ins and dry pluclting. With dark feathered birds it may be advisable to .semi -scald but witih either method of plucking the birds should be prop- erly bled and, if scalded, should be immersed for about half a minute in water heated to a temperature of 127 degrees. The right temperature is important, Over -heating will give the skin an unattractive appearance, A low temperature will not loosen the feathers sufficiently to avoid tearing, Hoarding in R.C.A.F. 'In response to a question as to whether RCAF personnel' would be given leave of absence to go on the farms, the Minister of National De- fence for Air retorted that lie was "not running an air force to go farm- ing, but to fight overseas and train here." Mr. Power, it may be recalled, is a city feller. Even a farmer wouldn't want to stop fighting' in order to get "farm WO) k done, hut the fact is that there is loafing in the air force, prior to .the beginning of real training. Lads who enlist at present are given six months "general duty" before they begin their training for air. crew. "General duty" seems to be learning a bit of, drill, for which four weeks suffice, and the rest of the time they stall around in one way or another, more or less more than a couple of weeks, espee- useful, principally less, iaily if there is a list of men who have been accepted, passed the meds - cal examinations and been instruct.. ed to be ready for duty on short not,. iee, This would save the country Some money( though that is a minor point especially in the minds of the spend- ing departments) but the productive work of these thousands of young men for some months on the farms, in the factories and in the essential services would be a real contribution to the war effort. Now they are just wast. ing their time and, up to the day they begin their real training, prolonging• the war just as surely as are the civ+ ilian absentees frolic the war factor.. les. One young lad was accepted and given a couple of months' leave with- out pay, So he continued his job in an airplane plant, He reported for duty at Christmas learned his drill, took a course in baling waste -paper in bar- racks, and since has been subjected to a couple of courses designed to. freshen him on his high-school math- ematics and English grammar. He doesn't know when Mr. Power will begin really to train him to fight overseas. Meanwhile, the airplane p{ant where he formerly worked is hounding National Selective Service to get it men to make airplanes to help the air force train and fight. It is likely that Mr. Power wishes to get, if he can, all the likeliest young men of -the country, and get them before they are swallowed up in the anapy or navy- But the same end would be accomplished if lads were ac- cepted for the air force and then giv- en indefinite leave of absence without pay, The objection to this plan will be that theair force must have an ade- quate reserve of young men ready to begin their training as soon as vacan- cies occur, in the various "courses at the various schools. But even an air force brass hat should be able to plan so that the recruits are not idling V. 20,000 tons of iron and steel, 500 tons of aluminium and 250 tons of sheet aluminum will be released for industrial purposes by the decision of the British Ministry of Works to. break up a quarter of a million disus. ed motor cars and other vehicles.
