Partnere, gardeners, fruit grow - are and tree planters will not be very happy about the proposal of the Ontario Government to limit the game hag on cottontails, To the hundreds of thousands of people who ,some in any of the dessert mentioned, rabbits are regarded as a serious pest, about in the same category as field mice. They do enormous damage and if not kept down by continuous hunting they will do still more. Almost every winter literally mil- lion* of young trees and shrubs are destroyed by these pests despite con- siderable money and time spent on special measures. Even on the out- skirts of our large cities they do e. lot of damage. No exhaustive and expensive sur- vey i$ necessary to determine the destructiveness of the common wild rabbit. Ali that the game authori- ties will have to do is to consult their colleagues its those branches of the government service which are interested in reforestation, fruit growing, agriculture or gardening.

Clarke Last week we were colder in the house than we had been in years. Day after day icy winds battered themselves against our doors and windows, penetrating the house even against storm doors and window protections. What it would have been like without them, dear only knows, It is at such times that I wonder how people in pioneer days ever carte through the win- ters. It isn't much good trying to describe it—only experience can make anyone realize what a stormy day its the country is really like, Even at that memory is short- lived. For instance, one of our neighbours was in town looking after an ailing sister. It was a day when visibility was reduced to 100 feet, and this neighbour, although she knew it was storming, had no idea what it was really like until she got home at supper time and found her way blocked from the garage to the house by huge drifts across the lawn, But now the weather has chang- ed—a warm wind has been blowing all day. Snow is packing and little rivulets are running under and through the snow. The house is draughty but reasonably warns, so we can forget all about the stormy weather until the next big blow. Ex- cept that I can't forget it quite so easily—not with a batch of chil- blains that are just about driving me crazy! And I haven't got enough courage to try the Spartan cure which some folk advocate—to ruts barefoot through the snow. Every time we get a cold spell I wonder why so many farts houses are built with main door opening directly into the diningtoom or kit- chen. Of course there is generally a front door opening on to a hall but in the country no one uses the front door anyway, Even so, the hall eventually leads to one of the vain rooms. Now why couldn't the hallway lead right through from the front door to the back door, with rooms opening out from either side of the hall? That way direct draughts would be eliminated as it would not be necessary to have one room lead into another as they do now, (We have six doors in our diningrooml) Imagine rooms with only one door -----no draughts blow- ing through at all.

Several outlets have to be consider- ed as fire escapes, Well, there you are—there's my dream house. How do you like it? Partner says my plan requires too much ground space. Maybe, so, but on a farts we at least have plenty of ground space. Now I think of it, that type of house is the exact opposite to a new bungalow I was in the other day. This house had a small front entry which led to the living -room on one side and the dining -roots on the other, They in turn opened on to the kitchen, bedrooms and bath- room. There were archways, but no doors to the living or dining roots. It was very nice, but it seems to me there is very little privacy in modern homes. As for instance, a girl I know who took her steady boy friend home to her parents' new bungalow. So that she.and her boy might have a little time to themselves the rest of the family went to bed early every night! Even at that privacy would be dif- ficult if the living -roots had one of these Large picture windows. Pic- ture windows look very nice, but without blinds I always think of then as on a par with these two- piece bathing suits—so revealing that they leave little to the imagin- ation. Let's see, 1 had a quilting story to tell you, left over from last week, didn't I? Well, you see it was a sort of winter -week special, I set up the quilt all right and two neighbours were coming in to help rue, but the weatherman decreed otherwise. So there was I with a nd Useful n Music on Tape First commercial tape recordings for home use claimed by firm of- fering eight reels of popular, semi c asslcal music, by ttlail order; each reel plays one hour, includes 16 to 20 nue/there; used on home model .recorder ruining at 71'3 111• sen., dual track.

However, quite often Partner would say— "If you want to get on with your quilt, go ahead—I'll do the dishes." So you see why I refer to my better - half as "Partner." And I did get my quilt finished. It was very thick so the stitches were -tone too small, but the quilting was fairly close so I don't thick I did too bad to get it out of the frames by the end of the fourth day.

W. Fairweather, vice president of research and development of the Canadian National Railways. The Alberta district, Mr. Fah, weather says, le today one of the most active areas of oil exploration in the western hemisphere, with Edmonton the "oil capital" of north- western North America. A concise, chronological report on the Canadian oil development, complete with maps and charts has fust been lamed by the Canadian ]National Railways. In The Geog- raphy of Oil and Gas in Western Canada," Mr. Fairweather traces the development from the first oil discovery in the Turner Valley in 1914 up to the present unprece- dented activities. Mr. Fairweather fixes the be. ginning of the present Canadian 011 "boom", to tihe discovery of light oil near Leduc, 18 miles south of Sldmonton, In 1047. In lees than a ,year, developments proved the presence of a major oil field ex• tending from Leduc across the North, Saskatchewan River to the Woodbend district. 17p to the end of 1940, drilling 4n this field alone has 4ndleated a reserve of 050 million barrels of ell and 500 billion cubic feet oe natural gas. Since the Leduc discovery, the railway economist declares, oil of a similar quality has been found "almost all around Edmonton"; at Joseph Lake, Whitetnud, Golden Spike, Barrhead, Bon Accord and Redwater. The Golden Splice dis- covery well is remarkable for a thickness of oil-bearing formation that oxceeda 600 feet. The Red. water field, with an Indicated re- serve of 500 million barrels, is the largest oil pool yet discovered in Canada. Pincher Creek, south of Calgary, has the deepest successful well ever drilled in Canada. It was re. cently brought into production at 19,600 feet with a record potential off 83 million cubic feet of wet gas per day. The Lloydmineter field, sheeted astride the Alberta -Saskatchewan boundary, which came into product tion in 1943, still constitutes the largest known reserves of heavy o11 in Canada. Exploration is now spreading into the sedimentary areas of Brit. left Columbia, Saskatchewan, Mani. toba, and northern Alberta, Mr. Fairweather sage: 011 in quantity was recently discovered by hnpetitti 011, Ltd. at Norman(Ivllle, 80 miles south of Peace River and 210 utiles north of Edmonton. The alt developments of the past t tree years have 'tolerated the oil market of western Ca -ads and out- lets must Row be found farther afield, 11.11'. Fairweather declares. To this end, be says, a p1110 flus is being built laid from Edmonton to Regina tiltti tills fine will be ex- tended to Superior, Wise,; pt the head of the (heat Lakes.
