C. D. Howe, Minister of Munitions, told the House of Commons re- cently, Referring to the demands made by war on gasoline produc- tion, Mr. Howe said it required 2,000 gallons of fuel to move an armored division one mile. A fleet of 5,000 bombers and escort fight- ers raiding Germany uses up some 6,250,000 gallons of aviation gaso- line. * * * Richmond Hill, 15 miles from Ottawa, and Vankleek Hill, On- tario, are among centres holding centenary celebrations of agricul- tural fairs this year. The Vankleek Hill Fair started in 1844 under the name of the County of Prescott Agricultural Society when English currency was still in use in Can- ada. The first feature ofthe cen- tenary program took place recent- ly with the planting of evergreen. trees in the fair gro'und's. The first organized agricultural fair in Canada was held at Wind- sor, N.S., in 1765, and at Pictou, N.S., the first fair was held 127 years ago. * * * Because of reduced supplies of steel available /or civilian use, Wartime Prices a 4 Trade Board Inas prohibited the use of metal tavestrough and conductor pipe except for repair and maintenance.

The Prince Hera'y, Prince David and Prince Robert were built for the Canadian National Steamships at Birkenhead, England. In the Pacific Coast service and in Atlantic waters each of these three sister ships covered great dis- tances and carried many holiday travellers until 1939 when taken over by the Royal Canadian Navy. The H.M.C.S. Prince Robert became an anti-aircraft cruiser while the other two were redesigned as combined operations cruisers. Press despatches from the front reported that the Prince Henry was one of the first ships to land troops in France while the Prince David also launched her landing craft in the early stages of the attack, and the Prince Robert was an important unit of the protective fleet. While Canadian National Steam- ships teamships officers had no thought of war when specifying the type of ship required, they did ask for power and speed and thus, unknowingly, pro- vided the basis for useful cruisers. The builders installed high pressure boilers feeding steam turbines to develop 16,000 horsepower and a top speed of 23 knots. The purpose was to main- tain an exacting schedule, The Prince ships were designed for 334 first cabin passengers with deck space for 1,500 day passengers. When launched these ships were each of 6,000 tons. In war dress their to decks, which carried much of t cabin accommodation, were mantled. H.M.C.S. Prince Robert has -more frequently in the news her Canadian National sisters, early' capturing a rich prize in the Pacific; ,. and afterwards staging a fierce battle against enemy aircraft while guarding a convoy lathe Atlantic.

In sales of bulk honey at wholesale price, the difference is one cent a pound, with No. 1 white honey priced half a cent higher than last year's maxi- mum price for non -pasteurized honey.

Red clover cut when 50% in bloom was found to contain 26% more protein, 7% more calciu and 4% more phosphorous than red clover with 80% of the heads turn- ed brown. Timothy well headed out had 45% more protein, 8% snore calcium and 40% more phos- phorous than timothy in full bloom. Alfalfa when 5% in bloom con- tained 19% more protein, about the same amount of calcium, and 2% more phosphorous than alf- alfa cut when just past full bloom. Dr. T. M. Stevenson, head of the Forage Crops Division, Central Experimental Farm, says that when alfalfa is cut at the right time the stents make up about half the weight of the hay and the leaves the other half, but about. 70% of the protein in alfalfa is in the leaves: To save the leaves, he says, "Don't let the sun go down on the hay in the swath . . get it into windrows." * * * Total tonnage of Canadian coins struck in 1943 amounted to more than 1,050 tons, an increase of 400 tons over any previous year, ac- cording to the 19.13 report of the Royal Mint tabled in the House of Commons by Hon, J. L. Ilsley, Minister of Finance. Average out- put was three million coins a week. The. coining division operated on a 24-hour day, seven-day week schedule for the major part of the year.
