WALTON Business Block Burned.—Fire of an -undetermined origin at an early hour Wednesday morning completely cite- troyed the general store of J. W. Bernie, in the heart of the village, to- gether with the house and shede, oc- -casioning a loss of about $15,000, on which there is but small insurance coverage. The Bernie store, better known as the Neal store, is one of the oldest in the village and one of the landmarks. For manY years it has served the citizens of the village and distaict, but to -day it is a mass -of ruins and the large stoek is a to- tal loes. The blaze was first noticed about 1.30 o'clock Wednesday morn- ing by Colin Fingland and Mrs. Mil- ler, whose homes are close to the -store. By that time the fire had gained considerable headway and flames were breaking through the roof. Neighboes quickly gathered, the men forming a bucket brigade, but their efforts to subdue the blaze were futile, such headway had it gained. Fertunately there was but little wind or the entire neighborhood devoid of fire protection, might have suffered. For a time the home of Mr. Fingland, next to the burned structure, was endangered, but the volunteer fire fighters kept a close watch and the Fingland home was saved. When Mr. Bernie left the store la•et night about 11 o'clock, af- ter spending a busy day serving Christmas shoppers, eveeything ap- peared to be normal and the owner is at a loss to determine the origin of the blaze, except that it might have been from a defective chininey. In addition to attracting virtually all the villagers many residents of the sur- rounding country hurried to the vil- lage and offered what assistance they -could. The loss, coming on the eve of Christmas, is particularly sad, de- priving the owner of the Christmas trade and inconveniencing the many oven one Melton in the 11LIT*13Or ai Agriculture, Ottawa. The Blueberry Business. Blueberries represent probably Canada's greatest unorgazized indus- try. modern methods for cult, voting or harvesting have as yet made their appearance in the Mania - len, and •only a superficial idea of the volume of production is ebtain• able. They represent both a fresh and frozen fruit trade and at the present tinte there are some 600,000 pounds held in storage for the baking trade. Only about one-tenth of this quantity will be used in Canada.— Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. Good Beef is Fat. The depth of the lean and the thick- ness of the fat itre general indica- tions of the quality of beef. Good beef should be unifoirm in colter, the cut surface being a bright rich red. The flesh should be velvety, firm, yet springy or elastic to the touch. It should be rwell mottled ser "marbled" with white fat, and covered with a good layer •of flaky creamy white'fat. The inside fat, such as the suet, should be brittle or crumbly land erearny- white in color. 'The bones should be soft and porous and pinkish te red in color. Haien flinty, whits bones are ass indication of age. Exposure ta air may darken beef on the outside without detracting from its eating qu•alities. To be geod beef must carry a reasonable amount of fat. Exces- sively lean beef represents netther toad value, flavor or econoney.—Fed- eral Beef Grading Service. FARM NOTES. Biting Lice Control Entomologists of the -Federal De- partment of Agriculture find the use of nicotine sulphate (Black Leaf 40 applied 7 to 8 ounces per 100 feet of perch) extremely effective in the con- trol of biting lice on poultry. A re- cent experiment on five pens of elev- en infected birds each; from one ap• plication of nicotine sulphate to' the perches shortly before the birds went to roast gave the following results in dead lice: Pen No. • Dead Lice Collected.

In the dry mash feed one pint of oil to each ene hundred pounds of mash is a good ration, while with a wet mash or other feed one to two teaspoonfuls to each 12 'birds has been found adequate. • A Neglected Market. Some idea of the epportunity for Canadian farmers to develop the ex- port trade in hog and pork products s afforded by figures with respect to dead meat imports into Great Britain as compiled from H. M. Board of Trade Returns. For the first ten months of 1930 bacon imparts reach - d a total of 7,410,020 cwt., valued at £34,922,063, and of this volume ,Qa-oada supplied only 87,109 cwt., 'which had a value of £433,955. Dur - ng the same period imports of hams otalled 865,035 cwt. and of which the United States supplied 715,352 cwt., r more than ten times the 70,968 cwt. supplied by Canada. Incidental - y, these are the only two in a long ist of de•acl meat import items in -which Canadian contribution was suf- ficiently considerable to ciee separate- y.—Department of Agriculture, Ot- A total of 8,992 lice were collected from the fifty-five heps, an average infestation of 164 per bird. The ef- fectiveness of the control mediurn n•-• shown by the fact that when the treatment was repeated ten days lat- er only twenty-six lice were found on this lot of hens. Care •must be ex- -ercised in using nicotine sulphate to provide good ventilation and an ample circulation of air.

In Norway handsome young Crown Prince Olaf last year astorushed. well as the entire population of both NerWay and Sweden by cuyn011neing his betrothal to the Princess Martha, piece of the Swedish King. Stockholm and Oslo are not far apart and Olaf was able to -avail himself of the free- dom allowed royalty in his native land to slip across the border to conduct a clandestine courtship, quite the most romantic thing which has haippeeed to royalty in our time. Plump Queen Wilhelmina is not so athletic as he northern neighbors. The spriest of the Dutch lot is the Dow- ager Queen Emma. To see an im- portant exhibition of Dutch master- pieces in London, she made the long journey from The Hague by Channel steamer and train, motored up to the Royal Academy, strode through the galleries for four and a half hours without once sitting down, rushed for her train and took boat once more for The Hague. The round trip took 28 hours. Queen Emma is 71. ,• There is no public display of any kind by any member of the Italian royal family. There wasn't even be- fore the coming of Benito Hussolini put everything else Italian into a sud- den eclipse. The members of the House of Savoy are modest people. The throneless royalties of Russia, Austria and Germany have not im- proved their position - since ihe war except here arid there in an individual case by a fortunate or promising mar riage. A few hew specimens of royalty are to be found. The most notable is Zag, King of Albania, who sounds like something out of a story book but ie a very ordinary person with a very bad cough, who chose to maxe him- eelf king. He is doing something for the cough, having cut down his cig- arette diet from 150 to 50 a day. It s interesting to note that the only royalties who appear nowadays in these bizarre episodes are the new - rich variety. The royalty "regulars" are very much on the joie. Carol has returned to Rumania and become reconciled with Queen Helen. This surprising move has shoved Dowager Queen Marie and little Michael very much into the back- ground. In spite of the passing of Primo de Rivera, first by royal decree and lat- er by death, and the anti-royelist demonstrations that naturally follow- ed, none has profited more in the last decade than that attractive young monarch, Alfonso of Spain. Not so many years ago he was described as 'a royal comedian, an ex -prodigy, a perpetual young naann Superficially he is still the boy king. But in the first five minutes of serious eonversa- ion Alfonso gives unmistable signs of having diverted his energies from rivolity to statecraft. The King isn't always at the polo field. "We kings," he said, "are work- ers. I was born a king not because chose to be but because I had to be, and I must do my work like any other man." That is certainly the Prince ofWales attitude toward his job. He is helped by many things: his own unusually ingratiating personal- ty; the general good behavior of his amily; and the insatiable hankering of the average Englishman for kings and kingly ways. But even taking in• o consideration Prince Edward's man - fold advantages he is without doubt the very best example of what's hap- pening to royalty to -day. He has been everywhere and met everybody. More than any other per- son Or factor he has held the great sprawling British Empire within the narrow circlet of the crown. For more than a decade he has stood "for good sportsmanship, for courage and high spirit, for chivalry and good nature and laughter and the eternal boyhood of life"; and since 1928, when his father's serious illness placed on -his shoulders the responsibility if not the name of king, he has stood for much more. Above all, for tact. On the occasion of the first state levee which he was to conduct in place of the King, he seized upon the excuse of a slight snow flurry as a reason for not riding ceremoniously through town—avoid- ing even the appearance of usurping the place of the man who lay suffer- ing behind the frosted window panes at Bognor. Generally speaking the subject of the Prince's matrimonial intentions is conversationall'Y dead. Two factors, however, may change this situation at any moment. There are at the present time more attractive princesses in Europe than there were when the Prince of Wales was first tpld to look around for a wife. He may fall genuinely in love with one of these lovely ladies. The other factor is a most signi- cant indication of what is really hap- pening to royalty now not only in re- gard to matrimony but in all its rela- tions to life. I hear it stated every- where in London that the Prince of Wales is at last a free man. He need not confine his choice of a bride to princesses of the royal blood. He may marry whom he pleases—"even," as they so characteristically put it, "an Real Cold Storage. The season during which cherries an be marketd is being materially ion ef a system for storing this fruit n cold storage. The current news letter of the Dominion Dairy and Cold 'cess cites the fact that by means of Storage Branch describing the pro - a new refrigeration equipment tem- peratures as low as 32 degrees Farene heit may be obtained. Most cherries are frozen at 25 degrees F. and kept et zero or 5 degrees F. They axe packed in 16, 30 and 42 pound cans, also in kegs and barrels holding 125 and 400 pounds of fruit respectively. Before freezing the cherries are pack- ed with syrup or eugar four or three parts of cherries to one sugar being porpular combinations. Many Sign Up. Saskatchewan and Quebee are so 'far the only provinces in Canada which have no entries iri the Hatchery Approved scheme of the Federal De- partment of Agriculture.

WHAT IS ROYALTY DOING NOW? Sixteen years ago the old European royalty in the fat person of the Arch- duke Franz Ferdinand of Austria fell off the top f the world. Next, revo- ution flamed in St. Petersburg, in Berlin, in Vienna. Wilhelm and Carl ran away. Tired -faced hard -handed men and women who had never been taught to read or write talked glibly of communes and soviets, of republics and democracies. Then one day the world woke up to the fact that there still were kings. Casualties there had been of course but only such casualties as had al- ways befallen losing kings. Victorious kings remained victorious. Even neu- tral kings maintained their royal bal- ance. Take Belgium for instance. If it hadn't been for the war Belgian' and not Russia might have been the first European nation to try the conamrun- istic experiment. But the first result of the great war for democracy so far as Belgium was concerned was to raise it stonest sard-working solemn - faced king to a pinnacle from wiico it was quite impossible even to think of pulling him down Albert himself has little love of monarchy's panoply and pomp. His idea of a good time when he isn't in an airplane, is to pUll on the leggings over his mufti and mount a popping motoreyele for a ride. At that, he is not so democratic as the King of Nor- way, who puts up the royal limousine to save expenee and goes in a trolley! Wonderful men, these rulers. of the north -countries. Most of them have little money and this fact together with their natural flair for democracy leads them into a simplicity of living which is joyful to behold—and is, 1 am glad to say, rather typical of mod- ern post-war royalty as a vrhole.
