Today, the Annapolis Valley is Nova Scotia's valley of apples. More than a million barrels of rosey choeked fruit are produced each sea- son from the grafts of those old Acadian planted trees. Annapolis Valley is literally "the apple orchard of the Empire." * * * * Scientists have started to take the apple apart for research. They tell us that the average apple is filled with compressed air. Normally this air would occupy a space forty-eight times the size of an average apple. :k * * * The apple lends itself with de- lightful ease, to any menu, from salad to dessert.

The Motto, "It is not what we gain but what we retain that counts," was very ably given by Miss Mabel Workman. The guest speaker for the evening was Mr, Geo.

In spite of the vast expansion in this area in recent years it should be noted that industry in the Urals has not yet been stabilized. For some time to come the district will have to be dependent to some extent on the older manufacturing centres, especially Leningrad and IVloscow, with their more experi- enced working populations, for spec- ial machinery and machine tools, al- though lthough some tools are already being made in the Ural regions. Many sup- plies, however, come from the coal Heide and the uew industrial r'egione of Western Siberia which are still I safer than the Urals from Nazi at- tack. The Western Siberian town of Novosibirsk increased from a pope - latent of 120,128 in 1986 to 405,589 in • 1939, and several other cities have shown even loom amazing growth.

This theory of Continental Drift, or the migration of the continents, is advanced to explain the origin of continents and oceans. It maintains that, aeons ago in geological time, there was one vast continent known as "Angaea," completely surround- ed by water. The earth's rotation and the gravitational pull of the sun and moon broke it up into individ- ual blocks, which drifted apart in a westerly direction until they became the continents shown on our maps, This drifting movement is cer- tainly going on to -day. Observations and measurements of the stars defin- itely prove that Greenland is moving away from Scotland by about AO ft, each year, while the distance be- tween Washington and Paris is in- creasing by about one foot a year, or more than 50 feet since the At- lantic cable was laid. it was in the striking similarity of the Brazilian and African eoaetline that the theory had its starting point.

The result, they argue, is the solid conti- nent of Angaea. The theorists say that it is the "Your frocks are all so skimpy:" complained the impossible customer.

Want and For Sale Ms, 3 weeks 'SOc As the Nazis press on through many of the Soviet's industrial dis- tricts there is much talk of the new factories and works established for an emergency in the Ural moun- tains far to the east of Moscow. In the Ural area are situated about 25 per cent of the mineral resources of the entire Soviet Union. Although before the last war the region was entirely agricultural, now it holds fourth place, after Moscow, the Uk- raine, and Leningrad, in the produc- tionl of electrical power; third place, atter Ukraine and Siberia, in coal Production; fourth place, after the three districts of the Transcaucasus, in output of oil. It is second only to the Ukraine in iron and steel, first in copper, and ranks after Moscow, Leningrad, and the Ukraine in the engineering industries. The greatest problem in production so far has been good coking coal which has been brought by long hauls from the coal fields of Western Siberia. It has also been necessary to provide extra oil from the Transcaucasus, Oil fie - Posits atleast as great as those 1n the latter area are believed to lie in the Ural region, but after 5 or 6 years of operation only about 2 mill - 6 The three main factors in providing the machines which will continue to improve farm operating and make it more profitable are closely inter -related and achieve the utmost in their functioning when properly correlated. These three factors are — e ENGINEERING—which by study and experi- mentation conceives and develops the implement or machine to meet the immediate need or problem of the farmer. • MANUFACTURING—to produce in quantity and quality the machines developed so that they may be economically available to the farmers whom they were designed to assist. s DISTRIBUTING—to sell with all the details which this includes, and which in its broader sense implies the missionary work of introducing new developments so that the full possibilities en- visioned by the engineer may be fully appre- ciated by a sufficient number to provide the volume necessary to bring manufacturing costs clown to a point that extends the benefits of the machine to the greatest number. Including, also, as it does the rendering of the necessary service to assure of the purchaser getting the utmost in satisfaction in the operation of his machine and the furnishing of parts to keep it in operation during its lifetime, with loss through breakdown reduced to a minimum. d 1 A 1= 1 =: 11 is evident that when these three functions are co-ordinated under one management, the success of each being entirely dependent on the success of the other, and the success of all being the responsibility of that management, that each functions at its highest point of efficiency. One cannot blame for its short -comings the actions of the others, insofar as the customer is concerned there can be no—"buck-passing." It's an undivided responsibility. Massey -Harris is proud of its engineering developments in the field of farm machinery over the century and has earned an enviable reputation for the character and quality of the goods it manufactures. Its own Sales Organization of exclusive Dealers permits its farmer customers to deal directly with the Company that designs and builds the machines it sells. A Company which stands behind its product with the highest kind of guarantee—it has to be satisfactory— and there's no divided responsibility.
