The Right Idea
In Edmonton recently, the police
rnagistrate, Mr. Harold Hawe, fined
a used car dealer $5,000, or a year in
jail. The offence, to which the man
pleaded guilty, was selling cars above
the ceiling' price, which is a breech
of the Wartime Prices and Trade
Board regulations.
That is the right idea. If inflation
is to be averted, the only way is to
retain the price ceiling. There are
"'Mons • of people in Canada who
obey the regulations and never ' even,
think of cheating, but to retain the
confidence of these people the only
way is to come down hard on the
offenders.
There is far too much of that thing
going on about the country, and used
car dealers are not by any means the
only offenders. A $5,000 fine or a
year in jail would give anybody
ample time to think about it.

What About The Soldier.?
A member of the Manitoba Legis-
lature, by the name of H. B. Morri-
son, sitting for the constituency of
Manitou, recently said in the House
"We are not going to work fourteen
to sixteen hours a day and pay in-
come tax. Why should I raise hogs?
It's a devil of a lot of work, and
there's not much money in it, any-
way.'
ny-
way"• Poor fellow, his; lot 'is a hard
one.
But possibly there are a lot of •our`"" -
Canadian boys who are asking why
they should fight the Germans in
snow and rain and mud twenty-four
hours of .every,, day, with an even
chance that they will be maimed or
killed during any one of those twen-
t r -four hours.
But they are doing it every day,
and doing it without a word of com-
plaint. Surely the least Mr., H. B.
Morrison, M.L.A., and the rest of us
can do, is to feed them.
•
Misrepresentation
There are a number of isolationist
-members of the united States Senate
who continue to make it their busi-
ness to misrepresent the Canadian
people, as the most convenient meth-
od . •of attack on Britain' and the.
British Empire.
For example, a few weeks ago Sen-
ator Shipstead told the Senate that
Britain could not get more meat
from,Canada, because -Canada forc-
ed her to pay four all such supplies.
There is nothing on earth further
from the truth, because, Canada has
not only been giving meat, but sup-
plies of all kinds, to.. Britain ever
since the war started. And no pay-
ment for these hasbeen asked, de–
sired or expected for the largest part
of our shipments overseas.
In fact, Canada's Mutual Aid fora-
gram
ro-gram has ,given Britain two billion
dollars' .worth of goods, which on a
basis of population, ,Would come to
something in the neighborhood of
twenty-two billions of dollars of
United States aid.
As long as the war continues, this
free aid to Britain will continue, and
if necessary ,increase, even if we
have again too ration our meat sup-
plies in Canada to do it. '

Strict adherence to the Ietter and ,

doubtedly permit certain easing of

there are fewer dangers in keeping.

ditching them too fast, and the
chances of eventually getting rid of
Them swiftly and completely are bet-
ter than with premature fumbling.
Certainly there is one thing no
Canadian should forget, and that is
that the dangers of inflation after
the war, are much greater than even
during war, and that complete co-
operation with government policies
is the one and only wise course.
O
. The Germans
(By Pravda Correspondents in the „Washington
Information Bulletin of the >FJ.S':S.R,)
In the town of Landsberg, in Bran-
denburg Province, at the approaches
to Berlin, Soviet • authorities have.
ordered registration of Nazi party
Members. Before the commander's
office there is a long queue, stretch-
ing down the entire street and 'even
around the corner: To show their
submissiveness, the Nazis . put on
white armbands.
Among those reporting for regis-
tration are Germans who, joined the
Hitlerite party back in 1983;,shop-
keepers,. house -owners, police inspec-
tors, and judges.. One is even a "pro-
fessor"; . in his laboratory •experi-
ments in blood tranfusion were made
with Russians and Poles as subjects.
'The "professor" tries to justify him-
self, saying, "None of the Russians
died." He threw • his Nazi badge on
the floor and stated that his Nazism
was a mere accident, that in general
he was a Social Democrat. Now
they all speak about their "democra-
tic" past. Now the people who took
part in Hitler's bloody feast renounce
him, cringingand imploring :mercy.
One German, in whose house we.
stopped for the night, asked: "What
will you do" to us ?" We answered
jokingly: "Weshall treat you as,your
soldiers treated our civilians."
The German turned pale. "No!
•You can't do':that !" he cried. "You
are Soviet people and you are pro-
hibited to do that. Your laws' are
quite `different. I know ... Dave
read ..".

In Nothing Flat
Viewing the planes in the sky," and
the way youth and' some of their
elders drive cars, we thought we
were living in• a pretty fast age un-
til we "noticed„a.. report recently _.is-
sued.
John Victory, Secretary of the
National Advisory Committee on
Aeronautics, has reported that from
data already available, it is believed
that jet-propelled planes will actual-
ly. -race 'time—will be able to start
from New York at 12 noon and . fly
across the continent so swiftly that
they will arrive in Los Angeles at
the same time that they left New
York, 12 noon.
Even granted that Pacific time is
three hours later than that at. New
'York, we would say that such a con-
tinental trip was still being made in
`Nothing. Flat.'

Tribute To, a Young Giant
(Boston Monitor)
So rapidly do changes occur that the- transition •
taking place on the rails is but dimly discerned
by most" persons. Yet within the period of
American.} entrye into the war_ to the present,
steam motive -power has been, if not superseded,
at least severely challenged by the entry• of the
powerful diesel .freight ` locomotives. Indefati-
gable be their efforts, available virtually 24 hours
a day, capable of steady running; without pauses
for water or ,fuel, free- of the need . of having
their fires drawn as does. the'steam engine, these
8,000 -horsepower' giants, in four connected units,
have contributed more to victory, than any but
the railroad operating officer realizes.
Few major railroads today are Without one or
a large fleet of these diesels. They cross the
continent westward froth Chicago, drawing long
freight trains on speedy sehedii'les. Their gay

Value of Milk in Poultry Feeding
The feeding of either skim milk or
buttermilk is not always appreciated
for what it is worth in relation to
poultry feeding, states B. F. Cheney,
Head Poultryman,` Dominion Experi-
mental Station, Kentville, N.S. The
farmer who has surplus milk avail-
able should consider its possibilities
in cutting down his feed costs and'
the maintaining of a healthier, more
productive flock. Milk used in poul-
try feeding will improve • the quality
of the product. -
Most liatcherymen - consider their
birds are not receiving.a s*+tfsfactery
ration unless the mash fed contains
milk powder or milk is available for
the birds to drink.
In the brooding ,stage milk, usual-
ly sour, can be given in crockery, -
ware or glass utensils, or as the
chicksget older they may be given a
moist mash spread over the dry mash
once daily, feeding only what the
chicks will clean up readily. If it is
desirable to market young cockerels,
a fattening mash may be' mixed with
milk and „fed in this manner along
with the regular feeding program,
thus assuring . a better conditioned
bird.
On range, milk may be given to
drink but care should be taken that
the protein content of the' growing
mash is reduced so that the 'birds
will not be forced into too early pro-
duction due to an over supply of pro-
tein in the feeding program. .
There is no bettet way of balanc-
ing the feeding program of the lay-
ing pen than by supplying one or two
gallons of milk daily per 100 birds,
in addition to their regular laying,
mash.
In the preparation of birds for mar-
ket "milk is a valuable aid in getting
the 'birds into the 'best possible con-
dition so that they will dress out "tri
the ton grades. The fattening mash,
should be moistened with milk to a
sloppy condition that will pour. Feed
this mixture to the birds twice daily,
giving them all they will clean up.
Feed the birds well, but always have
them looking for more:

amination of the seeds, Incidentally
Canada has no law requiring import
ed seed to be accompanied by a cer
tificate of -health.
More than four thousand sample
were examined in . a year, the grea
majority being vegetable and flowe
seeds. The war has cut down thi
export considerably and few, agricul
tural seed& are now being exporte
to countries requiring certificates
The main ' causes of, rejection war
Ascochyta in•peas, Septoria in celery
and parsley, and halo "blight in dwar
beans, • but occasional samples o
other diseased seeds were encounter
ed. The presence of Asc,ochyta . in
seed'p'eaS'•was responsible for the re
jection of 23 per cente of all pea
examined for eiport purposes- between
1925 and 1943. Considerable rejec
tions of peas for marsh spot have al
so occurred, but, since it has been
realized that, this is not a communi
cable disease, affected peas may be
exported provided.they are likely to
give a sound plant. In the .same per
iod 23 per. cent. of all samples .of• cel
ery seed have been refused certifi
cates because of the • presence of
Septoria pyenidia on the seed. An
even greater percentage of paisley
has been so rejected, namely, 31 per
cent. Comparative figures for halo
'blight (Psendomanas ,phaseolicola)
are not available,' but in recent years
the percentages rejected have var-
ied from' five per cent. to, in •one year,
as much as 25 per cent. of the sam-
pies submitted.
All seed -borne diseases are not re-
cognizable from an examination of
the seeds themselves nor can they
all be detected on incubation. Some
diseases,, for example, certain bacter-
ial and virus diseases, as well as
certain downy mildews in, the 'seed
coat, must perforce escape detection.
Freedom- from these can only be as-
sured by an inspection of the grow-
ing crops.
Among seeds examined for purpos-
es other than export may be mention-
ed a, sample of orlon seed which
showed the presence -of Botrytis Aliii
as a seed -borne disease. •
It 'ie. evident 'that fhrmers in Can-
ada using inverted seed" ..would be
well advised to treat It with a re-
commended dust treatment as a mea -
_sure of control against seed -borne
disease.
