".I'he dairying industry in 1938 was
characterized by an all-time record
production of creamery butter both
in Ontario and Canada; the highest
levet of butter prices since 1931 due-
.ing the first five 'months of the year,
and a sharp decline in the second
,half of the year; a considerable .re-
duction in cheese production notwith-
standing higher average 'prices than
in the preceding year; a substantial
increase in the manufacture of mis-
cellaneous factory products; and rel-
ative stability in the fluid milk trade.
Production of •creamery 'butter in
Ontario during each of the first three
months .of 1.938 was lower than in the
first three months of ,11937, but from
April to November a considerably
higher make was reported each monh,
and total production for the year
amounted to '88,1195,392. pounds. This
was an increase of 8.4% over 11937
and represented an all-time peak •in
production. The gain in the year's
butter production was general
throughout the province, with the
following increases reported by sec-
tions—Southern 'Ontario 6;7%; \Vest -
ern Ontario 6,3%; Central Ontario
Eastern 'Ontario 14:1,5'%; and North,
ern Ontario 10.7%.

there is more time for looking after

If there is one thing more than
any other the importance of which is
stressed in hog feeding, it is that
grants alone are not enough to snake
good ,hogs, and that for the produc-
tion of the select bacon type hog it is
important that a balanced ration be
Ted. In many parts of Canada, par-
ticularly throughout the Prairie Pro-
vinces, there is an abundance :of
cheap- grain feeds which as they
stand are unmarketable, but when
fed to live stock quite attractive
prices can be realized. Where grains
alone are fed the live stook product
is seldom satisfactory and to get
worthwhile results a protein supple-
ment must be included to 'balance the
ration. Skim miil'k or 'buttermilk in
some form is the ideal protein sup-
plement in hog feeding.
These,- however, are not always
available but because these are not
available is 00 reason why other
equally good forms of protein sup-
plement should not be used. A very
fine type of pork can be produced
throughfeeding tankage, a by -pro'
duct of the packing industry.

Lest Child to Leave Troopship Before
Ship Went Down.
Mr. Thomas Keily, of Leeds, Eng-
laud, who recently died, at t'ae ago
of 81, was believed to be the sale
ort'iivor of the troopship Birken.
Mad. Kelly was born at Chatham In
1849, hia father being in the Black
Watch.
The Birkenhead was taking troops
to South Africa for the suppression
of the Kaffir .reveet. On February
26, 1852, she Streak a rock off SI.
mon's Bay, neat' Gape Town, and
went down with 454 soldiers and
crew, perfect discipline teeing main-
tained.
Kelly was t awe years old at the
time, and was She twat child to leave

brother, wine were also saved. }Tiro
father penis, Kelly was taken to
Cape Town, where h@@ and his breams
were craned for by I4tat res,
Ants her notable event in Kelly's
career was. In the : great war, whcen at
the age of 65, he passed the doctor
and actually went into khaki. Te
effect this he had to dye his hale

ANOTHER INNOVATION.
Moving Pictures Are Being Placed In
English Railway Stations.
Complaints made by deaf people
that the advent of the "talkies" rob-
bed them of one of their greatest
enjoyments, have resulted in a quo-
loin development of the modern film.
This can only be described as the si-
lent "talkie," in which the players,
Instead of uttering sounds, use the
Oen language familiar to the mute,
in order to convey the dialoggne to
the deaf spectator.
Axel yet another innovation he 4.4

be tailed at Victoria and other

pa'aeengers may amuse themselves
while wafting for their trains.

CZECHO'SLO'VAKIA
Today in place of rejoicing over
two decades of successful nationhood,
Czechoslovakia is in mourning for the
toss of some of its fairest and richest
districts. It is burdened with tens of
thousands of impoverished refugees,
driven from their mountain homes by
the German occupation. What has
been torn from it 'was in the past
a sure shield. of lofty .!heights
fortified at a cost to its by no means
wealthy taxpayers of more. than $2150, -
moo. It 'has been deprived of some
of its 'most productive mines and busi-
est factories, also ofescenic resorts 'fa-
mous 'throughout the civilized world.
Vital lines of .communication, alike by
raii•way• and by river, have been sev-
ered. •
It is true that an international guar-
antee to which Britain has subscribed
is to promise some measure of per-
manence to its new and greatly qe-
stricted frontiers. But these frontiers
have not yet been finally ,fixed. Mean-
while its entire 'manses have +been up-
set by the sudden-throdsing of the full
burden of its national debt capon the
shoulders of a greatly diminished pop-
ulation.
Whether—after taking into account
the sums that are being provided for
reconstruction purposes through the
agency of Britain and France—Cze-
ehoslovakia can pay its way is a ques-
tion not yet solved.
Notwithstanding all this the Czedho-
sloovak Government faced these dis-
asters with a quiet fortitude worthy
of its sptiendid traditions.
These traditions go :b:ac'k to the
days of `Good thing Wenceslas" of
the familiar Christmas carol.
They sunk deep into the conscious-
ness of 'the, Czech ,people in long •
years of religious and social persecu-
tion. It is 00 record that the Emperor
Ferdinand II "of Hapsburg '(11(517& to
116317)• chastised them by fire and
sword. Nevertheless the resistance of
the Czechs was never completely bro-
ken and their ancient faith survived.
Toward the end of 'the eighteenth
century when the Austrian Emperor
Joseph II issued an edict of toleration,
more than ' '30,000 Czech Bibles are
said to have been brought out from
secret hiding places. Even their lan-
guage at that time had almost perish-
ed. But its use was revived under the
influence of the Czech historian, Fran-
tisek Palackv 01798-1(876).
'When the World War started
Czechoslovakia was still under the
rule of the Austrian Empire. More
than .300,0i)0 Czechs were eompul.amri-
.'y enlists" ie the armies of the Cen-
tral Pea ers. But the rant;aai';n had
not 'teen lops in progress ellen e:
