HELP THE UNEMPLOYED
A system of helping the unem-
ployed. to help themselves has been
inaugurated in several towns throu-
ghout Ontario. Tt is a simple plan
and inexpensive. People who have
land fit for cultivation and are not
using sante donate the use of this.
land to the town, the town in turn
plows it and supplies the seed when
necessary and apportions it among
the unemployed or those that will
require relief.
This plan appears to be a very
good idea as those that wish, can to
a certain extent, help themselves out
.of a difficult situation.

JUDICIARY SYSTEM
•OF U. S. IS BAD
The finding of the dead body
the Lindbergh baby confirmed the
fears of many that the baby would
iaever be returned to its parents
alive.
This dastardly crime of kidnap-
ping, murdering and extorting mon-
ey from the parents after the child's
death, has so aroused the world to
.existing conditions in the United
:States that it is time, if not too late,
for the Government to take a leaf
.out of the judiciary systems of Can-
ada and Britain.
Elected judges and prosecutors
are not a success. If law and order
are to take their proper place in so-
ciety, the States will have to reno-
vate the present system. Politics
and judiciary systems should never
be mixed.
Every effort is being put forth to
bring the perpetrators of this hide-
•ous crime to justice. President
Hoover has even instructed his body
guard to do all they can to assist.
This crime is done, but if the Unit-
ed States is sincere in her efforts to
have clean hands it has a pattern
to follow, the British system. 'Will
they make this sane move?

JACOB AT PENIEL, Gen. 32.
Jacob at Mahanain. So Jacob and
his family went on their way, first
westward and then southward along
the east bank of the Jordan, until
they came to a place north of the
River Jabbok. There—not in a dream
as at Bethel, but objectively— "the
angels of God met him." "This is
God's host." said the patriarch rever-
ently, and he maned the place Mah-
aniam, or "two hosts," "two compan-
ies" -his caravan and the host of an-
gels.
"As Jacob went on his way throu-
gh life, in whatever befell him he re-
cognized spiritual powers, so that the
whole world was to him a Mahaniam
—a place of meeting with God's
host." — Rev. Sabine Baring -Gould.
"How oft do they their silver
bowers leave
To come to succor us that succor
want.
How oft do they with golden pin-
ions cleave
The flitting skies like flying
pursuivant
Against foul fiends to aid us
militant."
—Edmund Spenser ("The Faery
Queen").
Jacob prepares for Esau. jacob
had one great fear before him as he
returned to Canaan. What would the
wronged Esau clo to him? Esau was
living in the land of Edom, south of
the Dead Sea, and thither Jacob sent
messengers announcing that he was
returning, that he had prospered, and
praying "my lord" that he might
find favour in his sight, "This is the
man that stole the birthright, and
named himself the chief. He is re -
wining to his country; and his very
first act is to assume the manners of
the servant. and bow down, recogni-
zing the chieftainship of his brother.
Such transformation fear makes.". —
Ilenry Ward Beecher.

THE WINGHAM: ,._AD VANCE-TIMES
The messengers returned with
news that struck terror into Jacob's
guilty heart, the curt news that Esau
was corning to meet him, with' four
hundred men. "Jacob feels ,defence-,
less and at the mercy of the wild
marauders who follow Esau. He lo-
oks for the speedy attack of Itis help-
less careen by the ferocious horse-
men of the desert, and to his alarmed
imagination are presented the bloody
corpses of his wives and children." ---
bishop Alfred Lee.
In his despair he betook himself
to prayer. Pleading God's command
in obedience to which he was return-
ing, and declaring his own unworth-
iness of the least of all God's prom-
ise of an abundant offspring, the
patriarch begged the Lord to save
him and his family from. the land of
Esau. This prayer is notable for it's
deep humility, "A proud man has
few reasons to bring before God; but
the humbler a pian is, the more num-
erous are his prevailing pleas."—C,
H. Spurgeon.
Next Jacob, being a practical maxi,
did what he could to answer his pra-
yer himself. He divided his animals
and people into two companies, so
that if Esau should fall upon one
band, the other might escape.
Jacob Meets Esau.
And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and
looked, and behold, Esau was com-
ing. The patriarch had anticipated
this meeting with dread for twenty
years. And with him four hundred
men. Jacob, the guilty brother, the
man of peace, might well have qual-
fied before them. And he divided the
children unto Leah, and two hand-
maids. With all his faults he was a
homer lover and a lover of his wives
and children.
And. he put the handmaids and
their children foremost. If they were
attacked, the others might escape.
And Leah and her 'children after, and
Rachel and Joseph hindermost. This
arrangement indicates the strife and
jealously that must have raged in the
polygamous household.
And he himself passed over before
them. Jacob was not lacking in per-
sonal courage. And bowed himself to
the ground seven times, until he
came near to his brother. Jacob. felt
that he as well as Esau was nothing
in God's hands. •
And Esau ran to meet him, and
embraced him, and fell on his neck,
and kissed him. A good illustration
of the folly of worry: Jacob's had
been but empty fears. And they wept.
Emotions among men in the East
are more readily shown than by our
less expressed and cooler -blooded
Occidentals though not more real.
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw
the women and the children, They
;were advancng in little companies, as
arranged by Jacob. And said who are
these with thee? In his message to
Esau, Jacob had mentioned the
wealth he had gained, but had said
nothing about his wives and his num-
erous offspring. And he said, The
children whom God hath graciously
given thy servant. There( is no word
of the wives; Jacob's whole ambition
was to be the father of many sons
and daughters. Esau also had many
decendents, so that he with his large
flocks and droves had been obliged
to leave Canaan and find room in
Edom, south of the Dead Sea.
And he said, What meanst thou
by all this company which I met?
Esau refers to the five droves of an-
imals • which Jacob had sent before
him. And he said, To find favour in
the sight of my Lord. Jacob still
maintains his htimility.
And Esau said, I have enough, my
brother; let that which thou hast be
thine, If Jacob hesitates to •take up
again the brotherly ties, not so im=
pelsive, warmhearted Esau, who was
entirely willing to let bygones be by-
gones."
And Jacob said, Nay I pray thee,
if now I have received favour in thy
sight, then receive by present at my
hand. Knowing Esau, he probably
!had good reason for his suspicion
and dread. Forasmuch as I have se-
en thy face, as one ,seeth the face of
God, and thou wast pleased with Inc.
A most extravagant compliment,
camparing. Esau to the Almighty.
Take, I pray thee my gift that is
brought' to thee. Jacob was making
reparation for •the past and at the
same time taking out insurance for
the future. Because God had dealt
graciously with ,me, Jacob referred
everything to God and not the least
his wealth. And because 1 have en-
ough, Jacob, as well as :Esau posses-
sed the high grace of contentment.
And he urged him, and he took it,

FARM NEWS
AND VIEWS
Published by Direction of Hon. Robt.
Weir, Minister of Agriculture
Read The Tag On The Bag
The Fertilizer Division of the Do-
minion Seed Branch sounds a timely
note in its caution to farmers as to
the importance to them of reading
the tag which must be affixed to
each bag of fertilizer sold in the Do-
minion. It is important that the far-
mer make sure, before accepting de-
livery of fertilizer in bags, that it is
labelled properly, and that the anal-
ysis shown on the tag is what he has
ordered and wants. It is this guaran-
teed analysis which represents act-
ually the real worth of fertilizer. The
label may appear on the bag itself, or
on a tag attched. Should a fertilizer
be delivered without such a Table the
matter should be brought at once to
the attention • of the nearest office
of the Dominion Seed Branch, res-
ponsible for the proper tnforcement
of the Act.
Preference For Quality
One of the items of outstanding in-
terest in the Live Stock and Meat
Trade Review for 1931, issued by the
Dominion Live Stock Branch at Ot-
tawa this week; is that which com-
ments on the evidence of consumer
preference for quality in live stock
Products, Bacon and pork giiality
have never been better than in 1931,
the report states and with cheap
prices the domestic consumption of
these products was extremely heavy.
At the same time, the report contin-
ues, the Beef Grading ,Scheme clear-
ly indicates a consumer preference
for good beef, and a willingness on
the part of the consumer to pay a
reasonable premium for beef of
brandable quality.
Fattening Broilers
Studies recently,; concluded by the
Poultry Division of the Dominion
Experimental Farm show conclusive-
ly. that meat meal is not necessary
in the fattening and finishing of bro-
ilers. Skim -milk and grains finely
ground are all that is necessary to
obtain goodgains in fattening. A
good ration is; . equal parts ground
wheat, ground oats and ground bar-
ely, mixed with skim -milk to the
consistency of porridge, and one
meal ahead. Such a ration ,produces
the "milk -fed” finish which com-
mands a premium on the market.
Some New Vegetables
Some new varieties of vegetables,
the value of which have been tested
by the Horticultural Division of the
Dominion Experimental Farm, are:
BEAN—Davis White Wax (string-
less) ; CORN—Early Yellow Rent-
ing, which has stepped up the sea-
son some ten to fifteen days; EGG-
PLANT—Blackie, a new variety wh-
ich, as an open field crop, produces
marketable fruits ready fbr use by
mid-july; POTATO—Gold Nugget,
an new, early shallow eyed variety
taking the place of the Irish Cobbler
and TOMATO—Abel, a variety or -
ter than any other major branch of
farm industry. Indeed, saleable live
stock, and with this, of course, we
Apple Season Closes
The current issue of the Federal
Fruit Market Report shows that pra-
ctically all of last year's apple crop
has moved into consumption. The a-
mmottnt in cold storage at the princ-
ipal centres is now only 18,475 barrel
and 227,844 boxes; with a further 15,
600 barrels and 52,639 boxes in com-
mon storage and at the principal
marketing centres.
Cheese, A Body Builder
Here is an interesting item prepar-
ed by the Milk Utilization Service of
the Dominion Dairy and Cold Stor-
age. Branch: "Is cheese eaten for .its
flavour, or for its food value." The
low percapita consumption of cheese
in Canada clearly indicates that the
majority of people do not recognize'
it as a mucle building food in con-
centrated form, but consider it mer-
ely as a condiment or garnish. It is
interesting to note that one pound
of cheese supplies almost as much
protein and fat as one gallon 'of milk.
and in addition has a high calcium,
phosphorous and vitamins content.
The mucle building, foods are limited
and since it is necessary that the diet
contain a percentage of this type of
food, cheese should be more extens-
ively used, particularly at a time
when health and strengh must be
maintained on a lowered food budget.
With The Help of The Men
F. C. Elford, Dominion Poultry'
Husbandman, and an outstanding
leader in poultry development in
Canada, on a recent occasion obser e
ved that few people realize what a
big part the hen has .played in the
national life of Canada.
• "There are many prominent Canad-
ian buisness men to -day who would
not be where they are if it had not
been for the hens on the farm at
home' he states. "The poultry Prov-
ided the money for shoes, and slates
and pencils, and were in fact respon-
Bible for keeping them at school.I
myself do not know of any other
business to -day which pays better
dividends than raising poultry, and T '
believe the prospects are still en-
couraging,"

Possessor. the saving factor in the
year's busines on the farm. At the
opening of the new year, those pro-
! ducers who had included live stock
in their 1931 program, found them-
selves in a much. more advantageous
position than those who had not."
Butter Situation Changes
Ottawa—Canada has developed in
the past year into an important but-
ter exporting country after suppling
its domestic requirements amounting
to around 217,000,000 lbs., instead of
having to import butter for its own
requirements as in former years.
Canada in 1931 is estimated to have
produced 224,661,940 lbs., of butter,
of which she exported 19,680,500 lbs
iginated by the Division of Horticul-
ture and found to be an exceedingly
early and good yielder.
Test Warble -Fly Powder
Barrie Island in the Manitoulin
district is the centre of interest for
live stock and dairy men at the mo-
ment because of the fact that it has
been selected for the purpose of test-
ing out a new type of powder for
the control and elimination of the
warble -fly. Dr. Lionel Stevenson,
Zoologist for the Provinve of Ont-
ario, is in charge of the "clean up,"
and all cattle on the Island have be-
en treated. Warble -fly losses annually
are enormous; but infested cattle can
not put on flesh or produce milk as
they should. The new powder, ap
plied is a solution, promises to be
both economical, practical and of
fectiwwe. Results of these tests may
spell the dawn of a new day in the
cattle industry in Canada.
Trade With Great Britain
Under united efforts of producers,
exporters, and the federal Depart-
ments of Agriculture and Trade and
Commerce, exports of cattle to
Great Britian (1931) showed a strong
revival and totalled 27,148 head, as
compared with 5,400 in 1930. The
total value of the movement, accord-
ing to returns of the Department of
National Revenue, was $2,218,383, as
compared with $545,765 in 1930. The
P
movement owed a great deal to the e
successful efforts of the government
in bringing about an increase in the
number of cattle -carrying boats to
Great Britain. The export rate was
$15 per head, less 10 per cent on cat-
tle 1000 lbs. and under.—Live Stock
and Meat Trade Review, 1931.
Real Disturbance
A man went to see his physician
for advice as to how to be cured of
the habit of snoring.
"Does your snoring disturb your
wife?" asked the M.D.
"Does.it disturb my wife?" echoed
the patient. "Why, doc, it disturbs
the whole congregation."
