"Too Much good fat•nt land is
being used for housing pro-
jects," That is what is being
said in some quarters --- and not
without reason. But then, haw
can it be otherwise. New houses
are definitely needed, and they
can't be Built in mid-air. But it
is not only for houses that land
is required. Each new commun-
ity that is opened up must also
have roads, stores, schools, gas -
stations, parks; theatres and last
but not least, churches.
1•Iowever, farm 'acreage taken
over for such projects cannot be
nearly as great as that which is
sacrifieed for the erection of
huge industrial plants, and for
the construction of super -high-
ways. It has worried us for some
time. Travel the new Barrie
highway for instance. How xnuch
farm land was taken over for its
construction? Or the new Ford
plant — taking in some of the
hest farms in the district. Now
chain stores are building on the
outskirts of many cities —• big
stores, complete with parking
lots. Almost every city is push-
ing its outskirts farther out in-
to the country. Real estate
agents are having a field day
among nearby farmers, who,
attracted by good, cash offers,
and having in mind the decline
in farm produce prices, are
usually ready to make a deal, Of
course, if farm property is re-
quired by the Department of
Highways, the farmer doesn't
have much say in it anyway.
And think of the land that must
be taken over where a clover-
leaf is necessary!
Modern highways follow a
straight line, insofar as that is
possible, so there can be little
choice as to what farm land is
taken over once a survey is
completed. But such is not the
ease with industrial plants. They
can be here, or they can be
.there -- according to the • best
interests of the company. Whe-
ther the land required is highly
productive or not makes little
difference,
But i wonder . . , couldn't
there be some form of control
governing the sale of agricul-
tural land for industrial pur-
poses? Surely there is plenty
of waste land that might be used
• to good advantage instead of•
1 being lett to grow weeds. That
much productive land has al-
ready been sold to industry is lit-
tle short of. •a crime. Can't some-
thing be clone to put the brake
on before it is too late — before
we wake up and wonder what
happened to all our good high-
way farms?
Not only purchased land is
affected: grading and building
highways indirectly affects other
farm land, still in production -
changing the natural drainage
cif the land on either side of the
road. As a private enterprise
f;rni ponds have proved them-
selves. as very satisfactory
Wouldn't it also be possible,' as
a conservation measure, for the
Department of Highways, in co-
operation with the Department
of Lands and Forests, to con-
struct artificial ponds in few -
lying areas directly attribut-
able lo highway construction?
These unsightly bare spots May
be seen• on many farms border-
ing every new highway in the
province.
On the other hand, another
fact is perfectly obvious as one
drives through the country. In
spite of modern tnachinery scene
farms are not as productive as
• they were at one time- •-- our
own included, .A man whose
work takes him to many places
told us that most of the farms
he visits are owned and operat-
ed by nen over 70. In other
cases younger men are holding
down jobs and trying to farm at
the sante time. But even these
farm should not be sacrificed
to the bueldozer. The. fertility
is there, and should the time
oyer conte — and with increased
population it well may —: when
feign produce is more urgently
needed, then these farms can be
put into peak production once
again — if help is available and
returns for farm produce make
1t possible.
Well, having got that off my
chest 1'11 go out and find out
boat production has been going
on . around here. We imported
80 pullets last week. For the
fust few weeks - looking after
them is £un. Gathering eggs is
quite eh ,event — we couldn't
be more excited if they were
laying golden eggs. Two more
today than yesterday. And the
size , . . soon they will be Grade
A. Large! The hens, of course,
are .moulting and falling off.
But nolo they supply us with
meat, poor dears. What a mercy
geese, chickens, turkeys and
the like, have no realization of
the fate that awaits them. They
have a short but happy life —
or du they? I can't think that -
turkeys, raised on wire, can be
happy. I wouldn't want to raise
turkeys for that same reason.
'l'IdEi LEGAL 14IINb
Ones a ranch hand was up for
trial for horse . thieving, and
they couldn't find twelve jurors
wiling to give him a fair shake
in .court. The judge roared,
"There'll be no hanging ill this
town while I represent law and
order! Round up twelve lawyers
and herd'em into the jury box,"
By combing the surrounding
country they managed . to find
twelve men with law degrees of
sorts, and the long-delayed trial
got under way. The townsfolk
expected • a quick verdict of
"guilty, • and so diel the judge,
but the twelve lawyers stayed
locked in the jury room for
eight solid hours. Finally the
judge summoned them and de-
manded, "Haven't you danged
fools decided on a verdict yet?"
"Heck, Judge," demurred one of
the jurors, "we got our verdict
in three minutes. What we can't
seem to agree an is a foreman."
"Baby -Sitting" Hen
Three eultuilei's ago atortliug
things began to happen in £4, D.
Wotnack's dairy down in Mis-
souri. A New Ilalnpshire leen
had a nest in an unused' feed bin.
And site was trying to "set", al.
though site didn't have any eggs
under her. The Womacks had
eaten the eggs as fast as site laid
• then[,
One day the barn cat slipped
into - the darkened .feed room,
jumped into a bill next to the
hen's, and gave birth to four
kittens. The hen peeped over' the
partition, saw what had happen-
ed, and decided that if she
couldn't have chicks to mother
she'd take cats. She moved over
into the nursery bin.
The her and the 100/1180 cat
battled for custody of the babies.
First one would win, then the
other. So, in thee, they worked
*uta compromise. They'd both
•mother -the kittens,
It worked out nicely for the
mother cat, She had a perma-
nent baby-sitter, and was free to
hunt mice and prowl arounc.
The arrangement also suited
mother hen, The kittens seemed
to love her marc than they did
their real mother—except, of
course, at mealtimes, She cover-
ed them with her wings at night
and somethnes she covered them
and the mother cat while they
nursed,
It all worked out so satisffac-
torily, in fact, that the next time
the cat had kittens they repeated
the relationship. And then an-
other time after that—three
tinter in all, twice within one
year.
Now the hen is at it again,
mothine her fourth litter.
The old eat, however, has passed
On, and a new cat has taken her
place. These kittens are her first
-,only two,
Since this new cat didn't know'
just what the old hen was, up
to, there was another hot battle.
It as tough on the kittens until
the cat and the hen signed a
,truce and decided to be friends
instead of enemies. Now mother
cat can visit the bin and feed the
babies any time she thinks they
need nourishment. They get
get along fine.
A voter in a village near Bom-
bay, India, whothought his bal-
lot was a bread coupon and took
it hone, was chagrined when
police retrieved it.

Senator Ed Ford describes a
visit to 0 friend whq, rather
fancied himself as a big -game
hunter. On the Boor was a lino
bear rug, and when the host saw
Ford looking at it, he- expanded
his chest and boasted, "I shot
that hear myself. Ile came upon
the unawares in the forest. The
fight raged for an hour. Obvi-
ously, it was a struggle for sur.
viva!—either the bear or me!"
Senator Fot'cl nodded and said,,
"I think the bear makes a much
better rug." ,
