Then.this government bulletin ln the sober detaelh.ed diction, of a ecten- tist raised this question. "How does the milk producer live?" Here is the answer. "The explanation is found in the fact th•at included' in the expenses are certain, citems which, thiough legitim- ate charges against revenues, may not biave been paid out ri °ash. These include interest on the operator's capital, wages for family la.bor. and depreciation of land, buildings, equip- ment and livestock. , Where the oper- ator has leen forced to draw upon these resources to maintain his our - rent position hie has actually been de- Prectating his capital and human re- sources. If no looney has been paid out for the maintenance ofthese it- ems, the operator may have used the equivalent to meet current living ex- pene•es, but it should be •appreciated that if this condition prevails for a period of years, he will have neither capital )10,1' human resources with which to continue operations." So ite appears we are destroying capital and human resources! If he meets an legitimate [charges he has 4.8 cents per hour.

Oae ,ship aails East, another West, By the •selfshme winds that blow. It's the set of the .sails and' not the gales That directs the way they go. The west is not a locality: it is a state of thought, When Horace Gree- ley gave his famous advice, "Go West, young man, go West," he was not merely advisin.g someone, who thought they laved in. a place, to go to some other latitude and longitude He was counseling and encouraging the blioad[ening, lengthening, an d engtthening of thought and purpose The word west is associated with pioneering because what we name world civilization began in the eas and spread and enlarged always to- ward, the west until the globe be- came encircled. To pioneer 16 to pre- pare, but thee pioneering was not alone the preparing of the soil, or putting in order a newe country. It eas not the planting of almost end- less fields, the subduing of moun.. tains, the 'harnessing of streams, the conquering of space. It was the loos- ening and widening of thought, which has led through and on to the footing where mental frontiers are now vis - Jones!. "Always our forefathers had farther frontiers to Tun to;—but these are gone our frontiers are mentak" Even in history and literature the eeed west has came to be used as a urneen•clature for freshness and. free - mini. Picture for a moment broad fields eri,th an expanse ef view as far as the eye can reach, finally bounded by rugged mountains. To lean a chasm by a stupendous engineering feat cannot but direct thought to the "have dominion" portrayed in the first chapter of Genesis. Is it not a true statement that pioneering west- ward has been done through the breaking away from traclitioa? Hu- man 'history is replete with •such in- stances of which Columbus is an out- standing exa,mple. H4s willingnese to penetrate the ignorance of accepted theori•es pusted oa the movement that turned a corner in progress: Co- relinquiehment of human, speculations was possible only as he saw through and beyond them. Sur- rounding ourselves wtth t reel ti on causes a barrage that hides from Ps that which we sfiould see and makes us subject to euerender to it. Carlyle, in writing of Columbus, Srpealis of the valiant, swift decisions to be made under the difficult conditions of .hur- ricanes, mutinous crew and discour- agement of men, and says; "Thou wilt swallow down 'complaint., unrea- s.on, v;earinese, weakness of others and thyse1O—how much wilt thou swallow down!" Turner earned the title of "father of modern landscape and Impreselonism" because he brolte away trom the cuetomary, to peace upon his "canvases a new sense of error arid light. One in writing of antler speaks of his energy and de- e•rmination to do this—"sponging, (Taping, using knife and finger, any- hing to force the material to ex - roes his vision." To be law -bound is not always to be law-abiding. Law piled upon law until peoples and nations become en- meshed in techniealitiee tends to forge material bou,ndarry marks of limited thinking that Prevents indi- vidual accomplishment. Law that 'becomes formula, is man-made and is not .the law of God which is the eter- ral law of right. Human hist:0U' shows that wherever pr:ogreeS or ad- vancement has gained foothold, it has come through willingness of thought to "go west." Humanity's record draws attention to the fact that pro- gress is a pushing on of movement Tite flatness of limited thinking would have led, Columbus to accept the the- ory of the flatness of the earth as did others. The rejection of taken -for - granted; unproved phenomema causes othere to take heart and do likewise. Motley outset buy the .necessary ?A.

Fowler down, are more then enthusiastic ov- er prospects for this year's show as entries continue to pour into the of- fice of Secretary L. E. O'Neill, Per- liament Buildings, Toronto. Guelph Fair, known all over Ontario as The Farmers' Show," is well and truly named. HeTe you will find the cream of Ontario horses, cattle, sheep, ewine, se.ed and poultry under one roof. Here is where farmer meets farmer in a wanrn and friendly at- mosphere as tlh•ey watch the judging of the various classes in the large anena. Horses are featured at Guelph, where there are no les,s than 110 classes for the "Farmers' Friend." There are 47 classes for cattle; 72 for sheep; 26 for eveine; 40 for seed ane grain, and 193 for poultry. Eacih evening of the fair is featur- ed by a light horse show. It is an increasingly •popular attraction. Don't forget the dates, November 29th, 30,th and December let. Guelph Fair is a ere -Christmas Arent every farmer and his family stould enjoy. British Apple Market Stronger "The, market ler fresti applee 1. the United Kirin:tom appears to ,be in, a more healthy condition than; for some time. There is a decided im- provement in demand, the downward trend in values has been checked." The above ieformation is contained In a repeal received by the Depart- ment of Trade and Commerce from W. B. 'GoTnell, Canadian Fruit Trade Ocsameiesioner in London. Mr. Gorn- hall further reports that supplies of English apples are now quite light, and the movertient from the United States is below the volume prevailing' at this time last season. "These fac- tors," he states, "indicates that the rnark•e( may be able bo absorg the presreETInovement from Canadk with- out difficulty and at satestantora Price levels." While Canadian shipments from September lst to October 18th showed an increase of about 21 per cent, those from the United States have declined by approximately 14 per cent. - / Englieh cludinary varieties ef ap- ples are reported to be not of the best keeping quabay and few, if any, are being stored for later sale. This fact probably accounts for the quan- tity at present on offer, but once they are disposed of the market will be in a position to absorb Canadian ship- ro•en ts readily. Seed Show At Royal At the 1938 Royal Winter Fair, which opened at Torben-) on Novem- ber 15th anti\ continues through to the 23rd, a larger and more elaaor- ate *reed :stow promisee to be not only an interesting' but an exciting feature, due to the inereased number of entries. oVer previous years and the oineequent keener competition. Those responsible for this seed show appreciate that good seed is not only the baste bait Ore 'necessity of good agniculture in all i•ts branches. Already there is considerable spec- ullation among some •af the exhibitors as. to who will be this year's Cana- dian wheat champion It is possible that a new. winner may take tae crown. With regiaed to close oempe- ti•tien in the ohampienships, the seed taking the fl.ret places and champion - stales in the alfalfa, late oats, battey and potato classes will have to be very good, and pudging from, the en- tries a reel struggle for filet' place winners will take pface.

Farm Interest's Enlarged . At the Royal, Winter Fair The Royal Water Fair • at Toronto, which opened oze Tuesday, November 15th, to run [through to the 2304, has a .program of .greater variety in farm' activities, larger prize lists, and wider scope generally than -at any Fair in its 17 -year' history. In commercial and breeding hors- es, beef and dairy' cattle, Wee and swine there prnomaie to be larger en- tries them in 1937 and a good repres- mutration of ,American stables and h.ends is already assured. The prairie provinces, "coming back" with a large wheat and grain crop, are send- ing more stock than at any time'niece 1934, probably running to 35. or 40 railway oars. Distribution of exiatb- its 'among the three western prov- inces is also more evert. than at any prey -tolls time. Changes and improve- ments have been made in the judging schedules and he the accommodation A much enlarged eeed, and grain show is listed with the hope that the fine condition of the crops will pea -- mit the exhibits this year to measure) up to the high ideals of its promoters for making this feature of the Royal Winter Fair a leader on this contin- ent. Large entries have come in from almost every province. In the poultry division the working farmer and the small •producer of eggs and poultry will find their needs catered for in the vast [exhibit by the combined poultry industry, Do- minion Department of Agriculture and manufacturers of equi•pament. This is a novel feature of the Fair this year and in itself should be well worth a. visit to Toronto from any part of Ontario. The •swine position appears to ,be getting brighter and pure bred breed- ers are enthusiastic .about prospects this winter. They are, therefore, showing at the Royal to the limit of their pens, In sheep also, the steady increase itt lamb consumption through out Canada and the widened market has encouraged sheep breeders to larger representation in the 10 breeds that have featured the Royal exhibit for several years past. As there are altogether 15,000 head of livestock, including poultry, tur- keys, ducks,' geese, small pet stock (as well as- 600 outstanding dogs and 300 of Canada's hest cats) the Fair gives every farmer a chance of see- ing very much in the 25 -acre space rt covers. fOir Winlreettea. 00-',45roz hove otortoo. o!or -Our Oarct A leap asked the Mans.Whe. clean the windowe whether liava'a ewe of tea Or arglatie 'Veer's best. satIM.7 be roolioct_.• alleaa; finds it game a better Pollea when I breathes on the glans," • We5ges/1e (tas reetantant to OM); "Did you osy ooddoo, airy" Professor of English: "My good woman, I did net, and I trust I never sheik" • Draper: "'These- are eePeelallY strong shirts, sir.
