Authorized as Secoad Class Mail Post Mate Department, Ottawa SEAFORTH, Friday, October 3rd National Newspaper Week • The Canadian Weekly News- papers' Association is this year, as in other years, celebrating a Nation- al Newspaper Week; October 1st to 8th, because its members feel that public service is a great privilege to all in the newspaper profession. Canada is a nation of free people, because it has a free press, and the Association wants to tie these two fact together and present them to the millions of newpaper readers in this Nation. - Looking back over the pastiew ,.years, many people have expressed a, wonder- that a maniac like Hitler could so control the people of Ger- many and launch them into the bloodiest war in history. A war that brought his country to destruc- tion. , The answer is simple. It happen- ed because Hitler undertood one thing: control the press and 'com- munication facilities, and you can control thought. When that is aeL complished; the ways of democracy can be destroyed at will. Freedom and responsibility go band in hand, and all individual free- dom rests on the first—your right to read and be informed. If your news- paper is prevented hiany manner from telling yOu what is going on, not only in our own country, but in the world, the people will" have be- gun to loseL their individual free- doms, and- all rights and privileges that you now—enjoy as a Canadian •'citizen will slowly, but nevertheless, surely begin to erumble away. .' . The press Of Canada is dedicated to the work of keeping the freedom .of the press and National. News- paper Week gives the' press this op- portunity to -rededicate its members again to that purpose. Grow More Feed In early days when agriculture was a much more sound industry than it is today, farmers grew all their grain right on their own farms, harvested and threshed it, andstor- ed it in their own granaries. In recent years it has been claim- ed that given freight assistance and subsidies it is cheaper to buy feed grain in the West,. and, possibly for a time it was. But subsidies are out now and transportation difficulties have shown their, head. -Added to this there has been 'a sudden jump in feed prices. Now the live -stock raiser is up against a situation which he did not expect, and against which he was not prepared to cope. To grow more feed grain in On- - tario would mean more -work for the farmers, of of course. But at the same time, by doing so, he would rid him- self of a great deal of worry. To a "great extent the fariner who pro- duces his own feed supplies is mas- ter of any situation. It is true he has to contend with the labor situa- tion,vand gamble with the weather, but machinery and harvesting equip- ment have advanced to the stage "where they permit one man or a man and a small boy, or even a girl, to accomplish the work of two or three men in a bygone day. A Tuckersmith farmer last week. said he was out of the bean growing business for keeps. They are, he said, a paying 'crop, but they tak'e, too ninth work; they are late and run into catchy weather; there are ;too • many weeds. If, he said, he had put his bean- land into barley, his gran- ary would have been full. He would have had enough feed of his own for his hop and cattle, and all his fall Woric would have been -finished. Howover, with beans around the our and a half dollar mark, not all ersWill figore that way. But the time, ,there. are a good q?, •nelf,;!4,0,eah many Ontario farmers who have come to the conclusion that more feed grains will have to be grown in the East, and eastern pastures will have to be improved, and before an- other seed time CORreS around they are going to make plans for an ex- tended programme of feed growing. Slow Time Again fftiRON The people of this toWn and dis- trict were able to enjoy the longest week -end of the -year, because they were given back last Sunday morn- ing the hour's sleep that was stolen from them when Daylight Saving Time went into effect last spring. Daylight Saving Time has always been a bone of contention. And end- less discussion over it has never brought a satisfactory conclusion. Most of the cities and towns are for it. All of the farmers are against it. • And with reason. But whether people are for or against it, no one is satisfied with the hit and miss -way it goes into effect, and ends. Would it not be better to reach a decision once and for all,, whether we Were to have fast time over the whole of Ontario, -or noehave it at all? But even if we can not all • agree, at *least those that ' do adopt_ fast time could surely agree to all start and stop, together. When all is said and done, we can monkey with the clocks as much as we please, but all our efforts will not stretch out the period of daylight we • enjoy during the summer or any ' other months. • Rural Mail Boxes 'In his report to the members of the Huron County -Council at its June session, County Engineer T. R. Patterson stressed the danger to traffic and the difficulty of snow- plowing, caused by the present loca- tion of rural mail boxes on our coun- try roads. • Since then we have noticed con- siderable discussion in the papers of other counties in the Province on this matter, the latest being from the Financial Post, which recently said: "Rural mail boxes endanger motor traffic and are unsightly. f'Most highway users, including the mail box owners themselves, must agree that this criticism seems justified. In many cages, boxes and their posts come unpleasantly ,close • to traffic and in no case are they • decorative. "Original regulations regarding location were based on horse deliv- ery, the boxes being mounted in such a position that mail could be deliv- ered or picked up without the cour- ier dismounting, turning or having to leave the right side of his route. With motor delivery a little extra Manoeuvring is not so important, though even without this, as at present, it has not a ays been easy to secure appIijt for the job, and after • tendering, many rued their bargain. If delivery is to be -made , More difficult, especially during win- ters of heavy snow, this 'free' .ser- vice of the Dominion Government may prove costlier. "The important thing, however, is that the present situation be review- ed in the light of ,modern conditions. After all it is about 40 years since the system was first inaugurated in Canada." 0 Be Sportsmen There are possibly more wild ducks in this district than there have been for several years. That js good news to sportsmen. But all men are not sportsmen. " We have corr to this conclusion because complaints have come to' this office that there is already a' good deal of pre -season duck Shooting go- - ing on in the country. The open sea- • son in this district does not start un- til October 4th, and this fact has been given ample publicity and is perfect- ly well known to Offendets. But most of them appear to think • they are smart, fellows in beating the game laws, but they are only display- ing the same mentality as any other, law breakers. All peoplp who are interested in wild life c6nservation, and all other decent people would like to see this sort of thing stopped,. and to bring that ,about, the authorities should have the fullest support and co-op- eration of the public, • leneaneeeeeeeeeeee • • oreaseeespee ears Agorte Iiiterestiog it 040 tram Tho, Expositor 01, Aft Ind twootrAve years ego. , From The Huron Expoeltor October 6, 1922 Mr. Tables Wallace, of Egraoreeville, had some ribs fracttired on Friday afternoon while workingat the stone crusher on the farm of Mr. Dougald Fotheringluon.

He has. been wafted to his home more or less for the past six months or so,' but prior to that time4 was 'finite ac- tive. Five Aces was what you call a lo- cal "character." As a boy I wasn't .quite certain where he came from. Some people claimed that he •was born ' in the next township and' ran away from home when he was a boy. Others maintained that he had been brought up out in Oklahoma in the early days and grew up te be a boy gunman, and . then after reformin.g "Five Aces" was a great one to talk, :hut he never gave out any de- tails about himself. Hisagewas one of these andetermined things and he told me one time that he hadtet, the slightest idea of how•old- he actually was. :To the most of us around .here he was a boyhood hero, sitting on the veranda in front of the hotel, smok- ing spinning yarns by the hours. He 'always wore a big, soft hat like a cowboy Stetson, and soft shoes- with high heels. Occasionally he would come out to our farm aor Sunday evening dinner, .He and niy father were good friends. Sunday afternoon we would crouch around his chair in the shade of the. pine tree by the side of the house, and he would. tell us about stage- coach holdup?, gunfights in saloons, outlAws that rode the hoot -owl trails, Wild Bill Hicnock, Buffalo Bill Cody and Kit Carson . . . and we used to get excited and hold on 'each word • • From The Huron Expositor October 1, 1897 The Dashwood Flax Company gave their employees a' picnic at Grand Bend on Wednesday of last week.

The common belief' seemed to be that ,he was a retired gunman who had reformed,. There were other stor- ies about how he, had been a shot- gun messenger on a stage coach and had .wounded a famous outlawchief that the outlaws:. had 'been chasing him :and he had ceme-here to -live, where they would never think of find - Mg him. . He had. an expression, "I felt .as if I were fielding five aces with noth,- ing wild," which he used in every conversation. That's where his name came from. When I grew up I foiled. out that hewas really a man who had grown tip in a small town, not far away, the son of wealthy phrents. He quarreled with ,his girlfriend and his parents and; •had 'moved out of that town into our village with- a pri- vate income left by his grandfather. An avid reader and story teller, he began to associate himself with, the characters ' he talked about until he actually believed, ithimself.

Huron Federation Of Agriculture-FarrnNews Farmers May Plan Farm Repair.,Shop Organizations which service farm machinery, and tarmets themselves+ are now able to make post-war Plans, says G. N. Denike, 'DO -photon Experi- mental Station, Swift Current, Sask. Materials. tools and general equip- ment, which during wartime were scarce, are now more readily avail- able,_ whiel, better eneleles farmers to have on.,their own farms a, workshop stlffielently wefl equipped to do a number e:: minor repairs to their farm machinery 'and. equipment: Such it- ems as tire andgrease changing, Minor adjustments and tune-up to en- gines and working Parts can be un dertaken. Many of the small repair jobs on the farm can 'be done in such a workshop, and tfhese are' only lim- ited by the skill of the operator and the time. and cost involved. On theother hand, farm machinery and equipment, in order to do the more accurate and specialized jobs of modern farming, is °becoming more complicated and intricate. The swing toward automotive type of d'esigning' in most farm machinery, with Cm- phaeis on hyd_•aulic and e'ectric con- trels of attached implements and with high pressure seals, ands high speed ibearings, must be met with a thorough knowledge of what thio means to :he farmer. In progressive farming communities, provision is being made ,S6 that all the principal machines ell: be overhauled by ex- perts in special shops, where the tools and the skill are available to do a thorough job on each class of equipment. Machines such as trac- tors, combinee, seeding and tillage equipment, haying and power har- vesting equipment, are becoming in- creasingly Specialized and' more din :ficult to adjust. Special tools and a complete knowledge' of the particular machine are required if thistype of equipment is to 'be maintained, in first-class condition. Modern farm_ practice, with its more intricate Ma- chinery, neceasitates the •estiblieh- ment 'at central points in each farm- ing community, of specially equipped shops, where ^overhaul and - repair work can be done. In this modern machine,. age. far- mers' must have a thorough knowl- edge of all that is involved in. their production program, and those who Meow how, to make machinery work to the highest- efficiency Will get the greatest return from its, use.

After each. use as a live -poultry crate, and before leaving the plant, all crates must be .thor- oughly cleaned and dipped for at least two minutes in a solution of two per ,cent formalin, or other an - proved disinfectant.' Unless this is dlone„ the crates must not be remov- ed from the plant. .

It was branded as a starchy "hot" feed, too concentrated to be fed with safety Gradually ex- perimental evidence hat! reversed this opinion and now wheat is accepted as an excellent feed, when properly handled. - Wheat compares favorably in 'Chem- ical analysis with the ether feed grains, being lower in fibre and high- er in protein then either barley or oats, It is, like these other grains, low in minerals', vitamins and. too low in protein 'to ^serve as a complete feed. Proper supplementation is es sential if full efficiency is to, 'be ob- tained. The nutritive excellence of wheat has been borne out in exacting nfeede ing trials conducted at the Dominion Experimental Station, Lacombe, 'Al- berta, and ,at other experimental sta- tions, says H. T. Fredeen of the La- combe Station. When single- grains were fed, :pigs made the fares: atm most efficient gains on wheat,' while barley ranked second and oats third. The most economical gains, however, were obtained, by feeding a mixture of the three grains, which emphasiz- es the importance of feeding a' pio- perly balanced ration. Wheat also proved more palatable than these other grains, and in var- ious "free ehoice"- experiments pigs demonstrated a decided preference. for wheat. However, in carcass qual- ity, wheat -fed hog a Were slightly ov• erfinished as compared with barley - fed hogs. This, too, le • overcome by feeding a proper mietere, of grain and by adequate supplementation. What is proper 'supplementatioe? For sine, skim milk or butter nillk fed along with the 'grain at the rate of two to three pounds of !OVA per pound of grain or a commercial sup- plement" fed at the rate recommend- ed by the manufacturer, will supply the necessary protein, while onehalf pound of salt and one pound of ground liniestone per hitudred pounds of ,gralo will supply, the necessary ruin- (dignitihued of Pap 3) , Students Have Holiday Students at the Exeter public .sehoot enjoyed' a two-day holiday this week. while repairs were being made to the heating system.
