Western Holsteins Sold At Markham Herd of C.P.R. Supply Farms, Alberta, Realizes $60,760 One hundred and forty-one Hol - Stein -Friesian cattle from the C. P. R. supply farms at Strathmore, Alberta, -were sold at Markham April 12 and 18 for the sum of $60,760. .Cattlemen froni every Province in Canada, as well as buyers from the United States, crowded the canopied tent erected on the Fair Grounds, to bid for the famous Strathmore cattle. The sale was officially opened by George C. Jackson, Downsview, Ont., president of the Holstein - Friesian Association, and in a brief ceremony before the sale com- menced a presentation on behalf of Holstein breeders of Eastern Canada for their great work in developing Strathmore Holsteins, was made by George M. Clemons, secretary of the Holstein -Friesian Association, to John McCulloch, yuiperintendent of agriculture for 4he C.P.R. in Western Canada, and I. Arthur Hay, farm manager at 1ltrathmore. Founded 38 years ago to demon- strate that dairying could be oar - tied out successfully in 'Western Canada, the Strathmore herd has made a magnificent contribution to aviculture and to the develop - anent of the Holstein breed throughout Canada and the United States, The tedious herd, has won more than 900 R.O.P, records, includ- ing two 1,000 and 1,100 pound tat records and 30 of from 800 to 900 - pounds of fat. The •greater propor- tion of the records was made under normal conditions. One of such record -holding cows, Strath- more Kobe Nina, with a record of more than 900 pounds of butter- fat, in a year, was purchased by V.M. Butterfield, Brockport;, N.Y. Highest price of the first day was brought by Strathmore Lenore Hello, three-year-old daughter of Colony Vale Romeo Sir Hello, for which $1,515 was paid by Arm- strong Brothers of Brampton aft- er stiff bidding against J. A. Sui- ten of Vasalia, Cal. The sire was bought by 111, J. Wood of Alliston. for $825. vastincrease in tourist business. t 44, 4 We are all familiar with the value .of the tourist traffic to the Dominion in normal times. One of the resolutions adopted by the hotel men opened with the state- ment: "tourist expenditures con- stituted the most important export item in Canada's balance of inter- national payments before the war," and added that afterthe war "tourist expenditures are go- ing to plays an even more vital role." Mr. Sutton was the largest in- dividual buyer at the sale, taking 48 head of cattle, including a pair of full sisters that cost hint $1,- 200 each. Armstrong Brothers also took Strathmore Kobe WeWinton at $1,025, Arthur G. lladdigan of Ridgeway claimed ' Strathmore Pearly Vrouka at $1,000, and the two-year-old Strathmore Daisy* Vrouka made $950 on the bid of Smithhaven Farm of Woodsto8E. Outside of Mr. Sutten's purchas- es few animals left Ontario, Al- together 23 buyers purchased Hol- steins, one calf going to ]Srskine Smith of Stephentown, N.Y., and two going to the New Brunswick Holstein Club. WHAT SCIENCE 5 DOING THE SCRAP PILE Unscrambling the proverbial omelet is a simple problem com- pared with the task of separating {topper, zinc and steel that are all mixed together in the. scrap re- sulting from bulret-malting opera- tions in American munitions plants. Tho difficulty is a new lone, caused by the decision of the 1i7'.S. Army's Ordnance Depart- ment to change over from bullet jackets made entirely of soft rass to brass -clad steel jackets, (fkience Service says. A modern bullet is a relatively complex affair. Instead of the simple solid leaden slug used. in other wars, high -velocity rifles like the Garand and the Spring- field demand a bullet with a hard j""street, filled with a lead -antimony a=lloy to give it weight and bal- =ance. A copper -zinc alloy that amounts to a soft brass (techi- ;pally, "gilding metal") has been used. Scrap from jacket -making operations.., with this metal can simply be melted clown and re- used. But for economy's sake, it was decided to use a steel jacket coat- ed with duly about 20 percent of its weight in. the gilding -metal alloy. In the scrap, the steel is sill firmly stuck to the alloy and tt becomes a chemical job to aeeparate them. It is decidedly worth doing for the scrap produc- tion is now estimated at nearly 20,000 tons a month. The problem has been met by the use of a common solvent, cup- aie ammonium • carbonate, already used by some copper producers en ore and commercial scrap.

Mr. Cardy in colourful terms, He pointed out that when we sell or deliver material resources we de- liver something which is gone for- ever; but when we de iv rso value to the amount of "$ tourist, we sell him scenery, at- mosphere, room accommodation, service or 'transportation, most of. which remains in the country to be "sold" again. This is an interesting commen- tary on the nature of tourist busi- ness and its value as a continuing asset. We should plan now to take full advantage of the wider oppor- tunity the post-war period . will present. Post -War Period Offers Op- portunity To Hotel Men Some of the benefits that will accrue to Canada after the war were brought to the attention of hotel executives the other day by Mr. Vernon Cardy, in part be- cause one of the benefits relates to travel. Mr. Cardy significant- ly pointed out that Canada is on the air route cross-roads and will be bound to benefit from increas- ed air travel. 1 -le suggested there- fore that hotel men prepare for a AGENTS WANTED YOU SHOULD APPLY FOR LOCAL AGENCY PEOPLES CREDIT JEWEL .i.ERS LIMITED 181-183 YONGE STREET TORONTO Modern Etiquette gave You Heard?

Announcement of the conscrip- tion of French women for German labor service was made a few days ago. Since then local Quislings and German commissars in other na- tions have received orders to take. preliminary steps toward the total l enrolment of women, these sources said. Norwegians, Belgians, Czechs and the Dutch apparently are the first affected. - All women in those countries between the ages of 17 and 45 are being registered and questioned about any previous experience in factories. Married women are included, but expectant mothers and those with very small children are excepted.
