Yt Oil C S INGERFAitivi sf Gwo,rtd.ol ite e.. D C l a rbke It would seen' that holidays and bad weather go together. What a day for Victoria Day! Every bit as bad as was Easter Sunday -rain- ing from mid-morning well on into the night. Thank goodness our cows were still in the stable. Far better to have thein there than tramping around its the wet fields, spoiling more feed than they could pos- sibly eat. We certainly hope the clouds have spilt all their surplus moisture for a few days at least and that Old Sol will smile upon us and warm the sodden earth. Ilowever, there was one thing we did enjoy on the 24th; and that was listening to the broadcast of the Queen's Plate. It was theone bright spot in a dismal day. That was quite a race -with its dramatic and ironical finish. 1t being a long week -end we were expecting visitors -my sister and her sou. But nephew Klein; was placing a violin solo at one of the Hamilton churches on Sunday and had a rehearsal on Saturday, so that finished that. When the weatherman was so unkind we didn't mind a bit. After all when city folk visit in the country they don't want to sit around in the house all day. However, we did have Sunday visitors after all -two friends from Fort Erie whose visit was as welcome as it was un- expected. It was nice to just sit and talk after being busy with the paint- brush all week, But oh dear, clean- ing up is quite a problem. Our big worry now is what to do with the things that nobody wants. Maga- zines, bottles, glass jars and paper feed bags -that is the big brown bags that feed mills now use in- stead of jute bags. There is also the wire that binds the baled hay. Partner can use 30111e of it but not very much. What to do with the root is quite a problem. Nobody wants it. The Financial Post explains why paper salvage isn't wanted. Less re- tail business being done; therefore less wrappings and cartons are re- quired; therefore less paper needed for the manufacture of cartons. So the price of waste -paper has drop- ped frons $40 to $3-$4 a ton. At that price truckers say it isn't worth picking up, It stems to me many farms would be a lot tidier if every township council would arrange a twice -yearly salvage pickup service. But T suppose that is too much to tope for. The waste of paper, bottles and wire is bad enough but what really burns me up are the tobacco cans that nobody wants. There they are, perfectly good cans, as clean and usable as when. they ,left the factory and could be refilled time and again if returned to the tobacco packing industry. Will all this deplorable waste ever come to an end? The only explan. ation we have heard is that handl- ing and reclaiming used cans and glass jars would rest more than manufacturing new ones. ft sounds so illogical but f suppose the trades - 1 e must know people w what they are talking about, liven at that 1 hate , to see theme cans wasted, Well, Partner has supplied me with my nature story for the week, The other day he saw a little red squirrel running :dont; the fence and heading for the barn. But it never got there. It was waylaid by a starling who flew out from the straw tnow and attacked the poor little squirrel with terrific vicious- ness. Naturally, the squirrel was stopped its its stracis. Them 11 -be - gam moving arnnud experintelilally. it moved forward the starling , attacked it again. If it moved back along the fence the starling left it alone. Evidently the starling had a nest in tate straw mow which it was afraid the squirrel intended to rob. More than likely her fears were well-founded. 5 Strange how every living creature has its own means of defence -and how other living creatures respect that defence -except humans. With our superior (?) wisdom we often do our best to outwit thein, For instance some of ottr biddies have developed the maternal instinct. For this reason the quietest hens are now quite vicious, pecking sharply when we disturb them, Do we respect this natural fustinct? Not a bit of it. We collect the broodies, put them in a crate where they can eat, drink and move around but have no comfort for setting. This method soon has the biddies singing again. So back they go to the pen to continue the job of laying ';; cent eggs, which don't cost us more that' 3 cents to produce. On the whole we don't lose more than half a dollar a week by keeping our 50 hens. And if we can stop them from getting too broody, and if the price of eggs went up another 5c a dozen the chances are we might break even!

BEE -HAVE It's rather a ticklish question, but did you ever wonder how a bee got Isis back scratched? Professor V. G. Milton did. Ile decided to find out. After long study of worker bees which were encased in glass - sided hives, the professor said that a bee is able to cleanse most of the pollen from its body by brush- ing it off with Isis legs, antennae and pollen combs. But there are still parts of the body Ise can't reach. So the bee goes into a "greenling dance" -the equivalent of asking someone to scratch your hack. If the dance is convincing enough, the 'barber" bee will lend a hand by brushing off pollen from the in- accessible spots, SEOICItd tablets taken aceordinp to directions is at We way to Induce sleep Of quiet the natrvri when 'ansa, $1.00 Drnelp„5toroe>,nl 6orSodicin Teranlo2, (app est People hi The World SIIANGRI-L.A (the ntytltical name for a place where people arc ideally happy and cut off front the outside world) really exists -- according to reports from South Africa. A traveller recently returned from a visit to alt isolated valley in the shadow of the Black Moura - tains in Cape Province, and said that he had stumbled on an iso- lated comm'"nity of nhtety people who Ilad heard only vaguely of the Second World War and had never heard of Winston Churchill, The valley in which these people live has a rather inappropriate nano under the circumstances. It is known in the Africaaus lan- guage as Die Hell (The Hell), The people are descendants of the French Protestants or Huguen- ots who' fled from persecution in France in 1685 and landed its South Africa, Their surnames are those of old French families-Cordiers, Mos - torts, Marais, Nels-but none can speak French, the language of their forefathers. Crack Shots They are hidden from the rest of the world by steep cliffs which can only be sealed on foot, Their iso- lation is made all the more com- plete because there is not a single road or Track lending to the hidden valley, which the people tbenl- selves seldom leave. They have no radio, newspaper, telephone, or postal • service, but they do have modern rifles. Both men and women are crack shots. Food in this modern Shangi-la is plentiful, for every inhabitant is a farmer and all kinds of vegetables, wheat, bush tea, oranges, grapes and figs are grown. A herd of cows supplies dairy produce. Tlse life of the small, self-con- tained community May now be short-lived, for the South African Government has expressed con- cern over what 'happens to tite children of these descendants of the Huguenots. - "Who's Churchill?" The official view is that there should be a better future offered to then' than that available in the isolated valley, and a scheme is now afoot to move the entire com- munity back to civilization. The fact that these people had never heard of the last war or Win- ston -Churchill is nothing unusual. Islanders who had never heard of such things as trains, radio, and books were found by explorer Frederick Mitchell Hedges in the Seychelles, a group of islands in the Indian ocean recently. They were all well fed and su- premely happy, Ile said, and had no desire at all to become "civil- ized." Nor had the Shayus tribe of the AuresMountains, North Africa, when they were visited recently by a French expedition. The Shayus have lived in this "African Tibet" ever since the his- tory of modern times began, and have again and again rejected the oncoming tide of 'civilization. Great dynasties and empires have risen and crumbled on the edge of the Aures Mountains- Egyptain; Carthaginian; Roman - yet this hilltop tribe has never died out and its customs are the same to -day as they were len thousand years ago. No Hard Work The Shayus civilization is based on the concept that most of the toil other nations consider to be essenial can be dispensed with. To them hard work is abhorrent and unhealthy. They do just enough to keep themselves alive. Women are the dominant sex. If a woman gets tired of her husband she can demand an immediate divorce, either marrying again or abandoning her home and children to ntalcc Iter living as a dancing girl. She is then an "Azria" or free woman, respected throughout the community and often comparatively rich, Another "Shangi-la" tribe where they 11515 peculiar ideas about mar- riage and equality of the sexes, is the Toda tribe of Southern Tnd'a. Sacred Cow The Todas live in the Nilgiri Hills and they, too, have no time fur modern civilization and cart- ventious. They are quite certain that they are the happiest people on earth, There is only one kind of work • that Todas du and that is dairy Work. Without cows tite tribe could not exist, which explains wily the dairy is the Toda temple, and the cow is to then --as it is to all Itiuclus---the most sacred of animals. Tho Todas settled in the hills 2,000 years ago and have kept to themselves ever since. To -day there are about six hun- dred of them, and through the centuries that figure has never been greatly exceeded. Grow Them Bigger In Newfoundland These scientists arc working on the theory that Newfoundland's 14 nativespeciesof mammals all emi- grated from the mainland after tate ice age and at a time when ice still bridged the Straight of Belle Isle, Cut off from their former hab- itants by the melting ice, they had to adapt themselves to their new environlnent or perish. In the process of adaptation the animals have undergone some very considerable changes. The island caribou, for example, is sandy' brown with white on the neck, head and legs. The mainland caribou is much darker with little or no white markings. But the caribou, in its lightness is the exception; all the other species of Newfoundand's mammals are darker in color than their mainland cousins. Nor is coloration the only alter- ed feature. Except for the bear and the lynx, all the manuuals of New- foundland, from the caribou right down to the meadow -mouse, are larger and heavier than the con- tinental species, These changes are accompanied by altered hone struc- ture and in some cases by changed food and living habits. Beavers for example live far from wooded areas. They transport logs through an elaborate series of canals to the sites of their construction projects and are forced to use much harder wood for their dams than did their ancestors. Whether or not continued isola- tion would ever have produced ani- mals as strange and rare as those of Australia no once can tell; but the ntammals of Newfoundland are now classified as sub -species, and the scientist has been given another opportunity to study the strange in- teraction of environment and hered- ity in one of nature's laboratories.
