Stratford motorists were questioned concerning the dangers which lurk in the motoristst pipe bowls. The ques- tions were suggested by a statement made by Ralph Duff of Nebraska City, 'manufacturer and authority on. en- gines. Mr. Duff's arguments were: A smoking pipe In front of a driver's face'was as dangerous as a big smoke stack. He claimed. wales and smoke would intcrefere with the driver's vis- ion to a great extent and probably be the cause of a smash. IIe also said that the pipe prevented ti clear view of the rear vision mirror, So much for Mr. Duff, Isere is what Stratford pipe smoking drivers say: "In the first place a pipe is no more dangerous itiian a cigar or clg- aret; in ,fact when I drive, my pipe is generally out while I hold it in my mouth. You can't say that of a cigar or cigaret," was the way one man summed it up. "The man's crazy,'' was the dis- gusted answer given by another driven." Generally the pipe is more until you safe than anything rise that smokes. As for the rear vision mirror •-- I've never yet seen a man smoke with his pipe sticking directly up in front of his eyes. The usual position is either at an acute angle from either corner of the mouth or down almost resting on the owner's tie (if his wife isn't near)."

Ac- cording to their annual census the herd in the former reserve numbers 4,763 and in the Latter 2,120, these figures being exclusive of the 1935 calf crop of about 1,200. "These buffalo are Wards of the Dominion Government. So that the ranges may not be over -grazed, and to preserve the herds in a healthy condition, about 1,500 amnials will be slaughtered this Winter, their flesh and hides sold. A few years ago, when the Government bought a small herd in Montana. . U.S.A., it was feared the buffalo faced extinc- tion." J. B. Harkin, Commissioner of Na- tional Parks, gives The Journal two reasons why the excess buffalo are not turned loose in the North West Territories, instead of being slaught- ered. First, he points out, 'moving buffalo North for 800 miles is an expensive operation; secondly the Department is anxious to get rev- enue from the surplus of the her 1. R, A. Gibson, Assistant Deputy Minister e!f the Department of the Interior states there are already from 8000 to 12,000 head of buffalo in the Wood Buffalo Park which is at the boundary between North West Territories and Alberta. This num- ber is considered ample, and is made up of excess buffalo shipped from Wainwright over an extended per- iod. Mr. Gibson incidentally remarked that only 500 buffalo would be slaughtered this year instead of the original estimated 1,500, The reason for this is that the abattoir at Wainwright has been destroyed by fire. There are large herds at Wain- wright and Elk Island and small herds at Banff and other points. The area of Wood Buffalo Park is 17,300 miles and this is where Canada's buffalo wander in 'a natural state, One Detail Overlooked )) ,444 4.4 TING' Here t There Everywhere A brother to every other Scour, without regurg to race or creed 14.

Japan's Flour Export Gains Export Competes With Canada And U.S. For Market In Far East TOKIO—Japan's export of flour during the first 10 months of this year is reported at 11,083,000 sacks, an increase of 1,958,000 sacks over January -October, 1934. Most of the export went to Manchu kuo and Kwantung leased territory, 10.042,000 sacks, compared with 8,-. 814,000 sacks in the same period of the previous year. However, there was a marked gain in exports to the Philippines, 3.02,000 sacks ' compared with 135,000 sacks iri the previous corresponding period. Japanese flour is reported compet- ing briskly in the islands with Can- adian and American flour. Exports to China, Straits Settlements, .and the Dutch West Indies, were respective- ly, 77,000 sacks, 15,000 sacks and 18,000 sacks. The first two represent- ed increases of more than 100 per cent. but. the latter was a drop of 26,000 sacks in January -October period 1034. New Cir Can Resists Borer Attempts Made To Cross Variety With Good Canadia n GUELPH—Possibility that a new type of golden bantam corn just re- ported produced at the Lansing, Mich., experimental station, and said to be resistant to the corn borer, will be a great boon to corn growers, is seen by Prof. L. Caesar, of the On- tario Agricultural College, provincial entomologist and director of the corn borer campaign in Canada. Prof. Caesar, commenting on the new corn development, pointed oat that the variety Maize Antau„ o, which is the .iasis from which the new corn has been bred, is resistant to the borer, and in bad years bas been left untouched by the peel., Experiments have been tried in Canada, crossing it with native vari- eties, but the trouble has been to get a cross that is not only resistant, but is also a good quality for dolestil' and feed purpose..

Mood& and Brown Are Proven Right L'Evenement, Quebec. — At the end of 1936 or at the beginning of 1937 a trans-Atlantic postal air service will be established between Great Britain and Canada. It is not a ques- tion of a fantastic prediction but of a well matured project... If the op.. eration of the new route is retarded, the United States will itself create it, and that would be not merely a vic- tory for them but they would reap a rich profit from it. Already 'mistress of the seas, proud Albion does not want any other nation to beat' away the pains from titer in the air... Can.. adian experts have discnsed the mats ter at Ottawa and prepared a. report which will be submitted to. the Brit- ish conference. After having consid- ered several projects for air routes, these experts have come to trio con.. elusion that the ideal ono was tri have the planes pass by the following points: Cape Breton, llavre de Grace and the Irish coast, That is to say, eighteen years after the first trans- Atlantic flight made snccessfnlly by Alcock and Brown in 1919, the path traced by the twce pioneers is judg- ed the most practical.
