"Muting the year ended March 31, 1;939" the Dominion Division of (C)he1nistry received 6,444 samples for anai3nsie as compared with 5,770 in the previous year. IA.n inquiry for ' the purchase of apples has .been received from Val- etta in the Island of Malta, and for hay fork and manure fork ash han- dles from Bristol, England. Between April 23 and May 12 last year 2,427,050 trees were distributed free to farmers by the Dominion For- est Nursery Station, at Sutherland, Sas'k. The month of October marks the end of harvest time in the northern hemisphere and the. beginning or harvest in countries south of the equator. (Lime and carbonate of lime com- bine with and neutralize the soil's acids. The excess used renders the soil slightly alkaline—a condition favorable to the growth of the larger number of farm crops. • When ,eggs are described as sold by the standard dozen, the dozen, un- d@r provisions of• the Inspection and Sales Act ' _'Canada, means one pound and a half. Thirty million, sixty-two thousand, six hundred and ninety=seven Can- adian hens last year laid 277,604,215 dozen eggs, valued at $36,586,415. Celery Growers Organize For Improved Marketing •Co-operative marketing was chos- en as a practical means of distribut- ing their product, when the celery producers of 'Thedford recently or- ganized the Thedford Celery Grow- ers' Co-operative Limited. To date, approximately eighty per cent. oY the total acreage is controlled by this group. • While the crop will show a de- crease volume as compared with that of last year, growers report a satis- factory growth and a promise of ex- cellent quality. With a sales organ- ization to handle district to truckers, as well as to outside markets, grow- ers are optimistic as to the future of their Co-operative. It will be re- called that, during the last two years, returns to growers were most ,unsat- isfactory, due to competition amongst growers, and a lack of some elderly method, of marketing. International Plowing Match The International Plowing Match, staged in Derby Township, Grey County near the City of Owen Sound was successful from every standpoint according to the Managing -Director, J. Lockie Wilson. Thousands of in-" terested spectators attended from all parts of the Province. Five hundred and five contestants entered the var- ious classes. The Inter -County' com- petition attracted special attention, Halton County carrying off the Farm Trophy for the team prize. The ma- jority, of important manufacturers' of farm implements demonstrated modern equipment. The horse show open to plow teams was eery keen, and thirty-five teams turned out for twenty-four cash awards. The Local Committee and Citizens of surrounding counties stood behind the Ontario Plowmen's Association and this proved a big factor in mak- ing the 1933 International Plowing Match the beet in the history of the organization. ID Weekly Crop Report Yield of potatoes in Peel County is reported about 50 to 60 per cent. of normal year. with prices at farms- rlanning from 65c to 95c per bag. One farmer in Huron County reports buckwheat yielding 20 to 30 bushels per acre on a 40 -acre tract. The veg- etable supply in •Brant, as -well as in numerous other counties, is low. Many corn cribs in Lambton have from 500- to 1,500 •bushels of corn this fall, the first in six to ten years. The new cold storage plant at For- est will not meet the storage re- quirements of members of the Apple Growers' Association. Incidentally one of the largest apple, crops in On- tario's history is being harvested. The hog population in 'Glengarry is down about 50 per cent. Dealers are offering 44 cents a bushel for 'buck- wheat in that county. Roots have made excellent growth throughout the fall season in Lennox and Ad- dington. Livestock in Terniskaming will go into winter quarters in good condition as a result of the improve- ment in pastures during the past month. The same holds true in the Thunder Bay area. Horseshoe Pitching Contests The annual horseshoe pitching championships for the Canadian titles will he held at the Royal Winter F it on the last four days of the Farr, November 27th to 30•thl inclueivel, Championships are open in singles and doubles. Four prizes are offered in each sub -division, making 24 cash prizes in all. By a series of elimina- tion, players will be stepped accord- ing to their score into •Classes A, B and C in singles and doubles.* Class B will be open to non -prize winners in Class A, Class C to those not suc- cessful in either A or B. Saving Steps When working around the kitchen, a hand towel is required many times. Try fastening a loop to the corner of a small towel, and sewing a but- ton to the apron band. 'Button the todrel on to the hand, then a number of steps will be saved each time one wishes to dry one's hands. Or, in- stead of the button, the apron band may be run through the loop on the towel before it is fastened at the back. • Useful 'Rubber Mats - Statistics show an alarming num- ber of accidents take place in the home, and a large percentage of these accidents take place in the bathroom —in the tub, too, -because of slip- ping. To prevent this, a rubber neat witha fabric surface has been made. This same type of mat is made to put on the drain hoard„ of the sink. Here it is a practical surface on which, to place the dishes. Dignity And Charm Of Gray Hair Who says gray hair isn't desir- able? If you say so you just don't know your style and .beauty stuff; you just automatically •brand your- self as not being up to the minute. A bit of the most importants nen:, (from a style point of view) emerging from a recent important hairdressers' convention was to the effect that gray hair is now held a style asset rather than a liability— and a distinguished one at that. "Gray- hair," in the words of Max Hoefer, a prominent hairdresser, "lends dignity and charm. It is not a handicap to the woman in public life or in the 'business world.",. 'He cites' many distinguished wo- men, holding responsible positions in the world of business and societ-, whose'-"'iTv"ery white or prematurely gray hair has added to. rather than detracted from their individual at- tractiveness. Hollywood Chatter /Vs a long time since Hollywood had such a gay end vivid party as the Bowery Part'w given by Mr. and Mrs. Darryl Zanuk and Mr. and Mrs. Williseri Goetz. The two hostesses, the of Virginia Fox of Films and the ex -Edith Mayer (Louis B.'s daugh- ter) met their guests inside the swinging doors of a Bowery saloon, Mrs. Zanuk garbed as a dance hall girl. in pink satin with a huge Flora- dora pink bonnet and an ostrich trim- med parasol with diamond studded handle.

Chicken pat- ties spilled luscious gravy on many a vest. Potato chips did their custom- ary but always surprising disappear- ance. Steins of beer were handed around by picturesque waiters with handle bar moustaches, red noses and a confidential air. .A huge bar, replica of the Chuck Connors bar of the picture, "The Bowery." attracted many- to its free lunch platters and foaming glasses. But this bar, besides the illustration of a harp which was painted on the mirror with soap had an illustration, never seen in the nineties'—an eagle accompanied by the words "NRA," The hearty food and good cheer flow- ed unabated till four in the morning. An orchestra played "In the Good Old Summer Time.," "Little Annie Rooney," "The Bowery," and many others of that ilk to an enthralled crowd. George Raft came a's his character of "Steve Brodie" of the film. Jeanette MaeDonald came aa..Anna Hleld in a sea green satin .gown with spangled bodice and huge picture hat with an enormous white satin bow on the hat on ri'blboe fastened under her chine.

She wore a stunning pink moire gown square necked, fitted (bodice with bus- tle skirt and pink tulle ruffling's.

He cane as the tattooed man from a side show. He was tat- tooed with ads' for his new film and his new producing company. Scar- let spangled tights covered his shanks and a scarlet velvet cape and high silk hat completed 'a rather breath- taking costume: Fay Wray came in her costume from the film — a demure .white shirtwaist, gored skirt and sailor hat perched atop a pornpador. Jean Harlow came as a bathing girl of the Bowery. Shipping Racers Equipoise, whose iron-thewed legs have made himi the champion thor- oughbred on- the American turf, stands up all the way in his private car when he goes on a thousand -mile railroad journey. Exterminator, great cup horse of the post-war years and most blase traveller in racing's history, used to lie down. Before the end of the present rac- ing season Equipoise will go on more train trips, since the aim is -to make hini the greatest money -winning thoroughrbred in the world. Equipoise had the whole midsection of his special car when he travelled. Other occupants of the car were three .men and two ponies. The ponies were. present as company, as a seda,•t y,e,. o that the bright star of the Ameri- can turf would feel thoroughly at ease and arrive for his race at Chi- cago withi';full peace of mind. , When Exterminator was shipped west for the Kentucky Denby of 1918 there was some misgiving. How would he ship? Would he' hold his speed? Could he meet the threat. of the western horses on the ground? And so on. Exterminator walked in- to the car, stared at the bed of straw whieh had 'been laid for him, cat - footed around much in the manner of a dog, and then lay down.

'Would he? Yes, for $962 for the car, and $264.75 for the fares of the men. That was the railroad over- head to enable Equipoise to put his best foot forward for the $20,000 prize of the Hawthorne Gold Cup. Success (Why were they successful?

That was all. It was easy. KNEES WOULD LET HER DOWN Rheumatism For 12 Years Here is a letter that goes to prove that even rheumatism of long stand- ing can be relieved by the right treat - "I have been a- sufferer from rheumatism for some 12 to 14 years now and have foolishly taken no steps to relieve it. My particular form of rheumatism seemed to take the use out Of my hands and knees. The latter would suddenly give way and let me down unless a chair or table were handy. All at once, I determin- ed to give Kruschen 'Salts a trial—a bona fide trial—and now I feel a re= created being.

When these organs are . work- ing efficiently, they rid the body of excess uric acid. And when uric acid goes, those -aches and pains go, too. Many Different Ideas • Of Wealth A large part of the misunderstand- ing which divides nations is without doubt due to the different ideas they have concerning the basis of wealth and their conception of thrift and property. 'The French waiter, Andre 'Siegfried, in the New York Herald Tribune seeks to explain these differ- ences: For the average Frenchman wealth is a tangible thing that has- •assumed a finished form and therefore is stat- ic; for example, in his mind it,means land, a house, pieces of gold or even 'banknotes;' it means also a belief in credit with faith in legal processes ( mortgages, pensions, industrial bonds, etc.). Itis easy to race these ideas as an inheritance of the Rom- an law. .But for the Englishman or the German it is an entirely different matter; he looks upon wealth more as a means of production, as a• thing in the process of becoming, as an event- uality. In contrast with the French idea, this conception is dynamic. In the light of this conception of wealth their minds turn only too naturally toward investments in manufactur- ing and merchandising. Instead of industrial bonds, which are but a form of credit, they are likely to bu stocks, an elastic form of co -:owner ship. In France before the war the wealth of the twiddle -class bourgeois seldom consisted of anything besides bonds or revenue from rented prop- erty';, and hardly ever did he invest in stocks. He prefers the security of the bond, which does not enriph you but which he !believes will at least not ruin you. I he Germans and the English in- vee.t heavily in stocks. This demon- strates the fundamental difference between people who distrust and peo ple who are willing to take risks. The idea of saving is the next thought that comes to mind as a corollary of what we have said a- bove. Wealth, as conceived by . a Frenchman, accumulates: it can be kept, can pile up. It isn't true that the French are misers; We believe in the sort of prudence that prepares for the rainy day—it is much more fear than love of the .lucre itself. For years people have looked us -al frivolous joy riders, .yet we are less sb often than the Anglo-Saxons or the .Germans. The English scorn our peasant class on account of their pritmitive lethods of work; and the German seems to pity us for our frugal life. The truth is that u4' are wise, if not as citizens, at least as individuals— er we know full well that in a country no longer young capital cannot reconstitute itself. We now come to the (basic .:oncep- tion of property. with lis, property confers rights but does not entail any duties. And here we seem to re- main. The Englishman, quite near to feu- dal influence, 'believes that in Eng- land the possession of land entails certain duties as well • as it confers certain rights. When he is a "gen- tleman"he does not consider that his time or his money or his land or his life really 'belongs to himself. The way in which he respects this tradi- tional conception' of land ownership speaks well for his forbearance, and he seldom shirks what he considers his obligations. As to the Russians, 'before the Soviet regime it was not without a certain remorse that they ever p'as- y seised land. "Perr a western ArroP,mai" wrote the Russian Berdiaeff, "property is sacred, and he would not allow himself to be deprived of it without vigorously defending himself, R one tried to make a chart o:f the peorde who save you would find them grouped curiously: France principal- ly the central plateau, the west aid the south; in Italy, Piedmont and Liguria; in 'Stain 'Catalonia and the Basque country, the Asturias and Galacia, as well as the north of Port- ugal. 1't seems to be a question of the temperate zone with people most- ly Celtic: is this the explanation? But one leaves this thrifty zone fn the north by going into the Nordic countries and in the south by enter- ing into Arab countries or those of the Spanish who have been subject- ed to their influence. Perhaps the fundamental aklivision of Europe in this respect,,can he at, tributed to the Roman domination there. Where the Romans have rul- ed there prevails a very definite con- ception of property and of the indi- vidual. From feudalism to socialism the passage is relatively easy; it is the idea of property held by the peasant and the middle class man that re -- mains individualistic in a way that will probably never change. A Head Ready For a Crown As if Austria were not having en- ough trouble's at the moment, a young Austrian living in Belgium has 'intensified the situation lee saying that he would like to live in his own country for a change. Ordinarily, the procedure would be simple in the extreme. He would simply buy a ticket, jump oh a train and be home in record time. Unfor- tunately, this, young gentleman hap- pens to be Archduke Otto, son of the late Ciharleisi, emperor of Austrriae Hungary. His homeland is now a democracy and that "no admission" sign is up for anyone who aspires to set up a monarchy. Otto is almost twenty-one. On his father's death in 1922 he (became head of the famous Hapsburg line of princes and is now pretender to the nen-existent thrones of Austria and Hungary. !Musical comedies have given us some marvellous prince. 'charmings, but Otto n ierely dons one of his fus- sier uniforms and outdoes the best of them. From the 'shining- toes of his riding boots to his jaunty 'plumed eap he is a prince. - !His mother, the Empress Zita, has constantly urged upon him the ne- cessity for his gaining the lost king- ship, and recently he accepted hon- orary citizenship in three Austrian towns whose burgomasters proffered it. (Otto has received the heartiest blessings from the Roman Catholic church in his effort to stage a .eome- bbark. This precludes .a very warm feeling for the Nazis and more or less aligns him with Chancellor Doll - fuss. Due to this linking. the young Archduke hdpes that the Dollfus gov- ernment will repeal the anti Haps- burg laws. In that• event, he would be able to return to Austria and come a step nearer to his goal.

Men Behind Cameras Hollywood camera mien have be- come 'very important suddenly, and sown of the reasons are these: The camera Man i.s+r�the basic unit in film •production; Without him the genius of directors, writers and stars would be lost. !He is master of the fundamental element in production -- the slightly more than a mile of filmy which reaches the theatres as a completed picture. He can make or break any motion picture player—and that isn't saying too much or too little of him. Many a star realizes how essential is an un- derstanding and knowing 'camera man in the continuance of her career. Mary Pickford Janet Gaynor, Norma Talmadge', Garbo, Ntorini(an Shearer and a host of other screen players have had their chief cinem'atograph- -ers for a .cpnsiderable period. The reason is obvious. A long associa- tion of star and cinematographer per- mits the latterto know fully the physical peculirities of a player. rrhese peculiarities may be •slights, a hundredth of an inch droop of the eyelids on one side, yet the sensitive camera exaggerates this; or it may be a slight deviation in the moulding of the sides -ef the faces; A.colorless eyes, that photograph too limpid and watery for proper' ei `e'et; retreating foreheads, sunken eyes, scars — any number ef minor defects that migrlrt hamper the career of the player but for sympathetic handling by the mas- ter of lights and shadows. • The camera man who is associated with a star for long knows 'how to surmount these defts. Like a por- trait painter who wishes to remain in good standing with his sitter, he ennlphesizes the good points and gloss- es( over the weak. !He avoids the menace of the dro'opin'g eyelids by flooding the face with soft lights, so that no shadows are cast, and by or- dering the •make-up experts • to con- tour the eyelids by ,means of light and lark cosmetics. The difference in facial sides never worries him for long; he simply enreentrialieS • Amos 'n' Andy's Own Announcer Here they are . .

He has been announcing Cor- rell and 'Golden, creators and port- rayers of the characters even before that, far he also officiated at the mic- rophone for them, introducing Sam and Henry, predecessors- of Amos '111' Andy.
