STRATFORD.—Rusticur, the Iiea-
con-ITerald's farm writer, says: Con-
servation! We read about it in the
daily papers, and when the weekly
farm papers Caine they too took up
the cry, or was it the other way about?
We have read and heard more about
conservation in the month of Jana-
- ary, 1937, than we probably have in
any previous whole year. A week or
' so ago when county councils were in
tsession throughout the western part
of the province conservation came up
for discussion, and so far as we know
most of these bodies were quite con-
vinced that "'something should be
done."
Every now and again we have been
reading articles or listening to
speeches about conserving the wood -
lots of this province, and of course
the woodlots would be undrained the
land would not be quit so dry in a
summer like that of 1936, There are
those who ask what effect this would
have on the crops out in the drained
fields.
There is a considerable area of fair-
ly heavy timber on our farm and we
know that. in many years the crop on
the fields immediately adjoining the
,bush are considerably better than are
those further away. Perhaps the trees
give shelter from the early cold
'winds and later in the season from
the hot; dry winds that so rapidly
evaporate the moisture.
Like many farmers we have taken
advantage of the tax exemption on
'woodlots, and it is surprising the
number of young saplings that have
grown up in the past eight years since
the stook was kept out, . One other
most noticeable feature is the fact
that the older trees are not drying
off nearly as rapidly as they were a
few years ago. We attribute this to
the undergrowth protecting the mois-
ture supply from the sun and wind.
Apparently many people think that

conservation should :lean the plant -
lug of same acreage of 'voodlot on ev-
ery farm. We believe that this is im-
practical and we wrnld expect very
poor results from planting young
trees in any great numbers on an
acre or two of well drained farm land,
though we have seen a few excellent
groves started in this way. We be-
lieve that more attention should be
given to existing woodlots, and to the
many farms that are at present grow-
ing little but weeds. Our County
Council would be justified in taking
over some of these lands and co-op-
erating with the provincial govern-
ment in experimental reforestation.
With existing unemployment and low
land values the present ought to be a
favorable time.
The generation that is gone has left
to us our cleared and improved farms.
Our governments, from the little ones
up to the Dominion House, have been
piling up a burden of debt. Shall that
be all we. will leave behind Is'? Would
it not be some consolation if we left
them a few publicly owned areas of
woodland? les, and a few well cared
for privately owned farm woodlots?
Depend upon it, these will not be
much bush- left in another twenty-
five years unless the public takes a
mighty good dose of this conservation
medicine they are talking so much
about this winter.

bought a hand bag in which she
found $50. The bag was marked
with the former owner's initials and
address. She returned the money.
The house to which she went was
that of Judge McCann and while she
was there, in walked Peter. Peter
and Sheila met secretly the next
day in an old book room of a lib-
raiy to which Peter had access. Pet-
er told her he loved her but was
to marry another girl, Gertrude
Keane, who lived with the McCanns.
When they tried to leave
the lib-
rary, they found themselves locked
in. Making their way over several
roofs in a snowstorm, they met Ken
and inky. One had a pistol They
forced Sheila and Peter into an au-
tomobile and some distance out of
the city. Hours later they were tak-
en into an isolated farmhouse.
"You're a funny one !" Peter said,
watching her.
"I don't care !—Put some coal in
there, will you, Peter? I don't care,"
Sheila said, "there's no use wasting
good food."
"You're getting a kick out of
this," he said, resentfully.
"I would, if it wasn't for 3/1am-
n)a."
"Don't you believe it's all over
yet," Peter muttered, ominously.
But the homely, familiar work
had quieted Sheila's nerves. Nothing
terrible was going to happen. Those
smoking men in the old farmhouse
parlor were just like other men
loafing on Sunday morning, or ra-
ther they were just grown-up boys,
like other boys. They would be hun-
gry, pretty soon, and she could feed
them.
A hideous face looked into the kit-
chen; it would have appalled her
yesterday. But she was warm and
fed, now, and busy and needed, and
this filled the need of her woman's
heart.
"Dinner."- this apparition • said
hoarsely.
"Yep. In about half an hour,"
Sheila responded briskly. "You tell
them to wash their hands!"
The last was mere habit. Sheila's
mother had said this to her children
as often as she had summoned them
to a meal. No Carscadden could say
"Dinner!" without adding, "Wash
your hands!"
She saw the villainous face stare
at her oddly. The man vanished.
"You've got a nerve!" Peter said,
fearfully. "They night kill us for
less than that!"
"Oh, shucks!" Sheila said boldly.
"Give me those plates.
Impressed, Peter obeyed her
meekly.
A minyte dater the man called
Tien came into the kitchen. He had
evidently just arrived, for his face
was red with cold, and his gloves
and coat wet. IIe looked curiously
