ANADAARU S'T Company Main Branch: Dundas and Clarence - London, Ontario, 4 wo' & u Injured in Sim Two accidents of a similar nature occurred near Kippen last week, when Orville Workman and Ross Farncom:be, foreman of Jar- rott Bros.' farms, were injured while in the operation of comhin- iag beans. On Tuesday morning while Thos. Btttt and Orville Workman were combining beans on the Iattei's farm, it appears Mr. Workman was in the aot of clearing the clogged cyli::ders and in some way got his right hand caught between the belt and the revolving pulley, bad- ly tearing and bruising three fin- gers of his right hand. Mr: Work- man was rushed to a doctor and the injured hand received the nec- essary eo-essary treatment. On Friday afternoon Ross Fern- combe, while repairing a combine in readiness for combining beans, also fell a victim to the• machin?, and hie hand too was caught be- tween the belt and a revolving pulley, and his hand was badly mangled and bruised. Dr. Jarroit, who was home at the time, admin- istered first aid and then the in- jured man was rushed to Clinton hospital, where it was found three fingers suffered badly, the liga- ments in one finger being severed. It is hoped both these gentlemen will soon be able to perform as usual. Many from this vicinity attend- ed the Western Fair in London last week.

You will if you make it a "Double Day" — a day dur- ing -which you try to practice certain principles with twice your normal effort. For instance, with people — everyone you meet during the day — make a double effort to be kind and helpful. Try to be twice as interested in each one, twice as appre- ciative of their good quali- ties. On the job too, there are many things you can profit. ably try to double: your concentration; your self-con- fidence; your efficiency; your ability to visualize improve- ments that can be made in your field of work.. Even spare time recreation will bring more fun and re- laxation if entered into with doubled enthusiasm. The end of such a day will be so enjoyable that you will want to continue such practice in the future. • • • Here's another secret of happier. living: Provide a background of peace of mind for yourself and your loved ones through life insurance. It offers dependable protec- tion against emergencies and provides income for retire- ment.. Arthur, predeceased her in 1945. The funeral was held 'from the B.a11 & Mutch funeral home, Clin• ton, on Monday, with Rev. W. J. W oolfrey officiating. The pall- bearers were Walter Washington, Amos Andrew, Elmer Trick, Har- ry arry Charlesworth, Geo, Wise and Herb. Jenkins. Tlie flower -bearers, were Lorne Tyndall, Wm. Vodden, Robt. Glenn and Wilmer Washing- ton. ashington, Interment was in Clinton cem- etery. Plunder in theSky Whose clouds are they, anyway? If a perfectly innocent cloud is on its way to Utah and planes are sent up from Nevada to seed it with dry ice in order to cause much-needed precipitation — in Nevada —• while Utah is left high, dry and thirsty, who can tell what dire possibilities lie ahead? Will rain robbers replace train robbers in the epic of the West? Will sky pilots give way to cloud pirates? Will barons of industry be rivalled by nabobs of the nebuli? Already Vincent J. Schaefer of the General Electric Company's re- search laboratory warns against uncontrolled cloud pirating. The London Times ironically declares that the remedy is clear: "The clouds must be nationalized and their contirol vested in a board of nebulous planners." But think of he problems of international con= r•ol which lie beyond that! The United Nations has faced graver but no cloudier issues. How wistfully we look back to the days of romantic individualism when Shelley's cloud could flounce happily through the air, singing: I am the daughter of earth and water, And the nursling of the sky. Now the question is whether it's the daughter of Nevada or Utah— or even the nursling of Washing- ton. The "little cloud no bigger than a man's hand" may yet be- come a major' issue if the dawn comes up like plunder out of some- where that needs rain. Use rof Nitrogen Canadian consumption of nitro- gen fertilizer has increased from some 11,000 tons in 1940 to about 27,000 tons in 1947. On a popula- tion and crop acreage basis an- aea still uses relatively little nitro- gen as compared with some coun- tries. About 90 per cent of it is u ed as an ingredient of mixed fer- tilizers and five per cent for side dressing, mainly for leafy vege,- table- crops. The estimated ton- nage of ntitrogen for fertilizer ma- terials for all fertilizer purposes. used in the trade year ended July 1, 1945, was 127,315 tons. With the exception of 40.250 tons of ammonium phosphate, about 90 per cent of the total was used in the five Eastern Provinces and ten per cent in the Western Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alber- ta and British Columbia. Some 36,000 tons were used in the Prairie Provinces mainly for grow- ing sugar beets and grain—princi- pally registered and certified seed grain. The demand for 11-48 am- monium phosphate in the Prairies has increased rapidly and there is still a shortage of this fertilizer for that part of- Canada, as well a, da'il] attachments for applying it. Quality in Eggs An interesting illustration of the value of quality and grading is shown in the marketing of eggs at the border City of Windsor. A year ago shoppers from De- troit began coming across the bor- der to Windsor to buy eggs. 'At that time, eggs were 20 cents a dozen cheaper in the Canadian city and for a long time the price mar- gin was 15 cents. As a resultt of this demand for what were to a United States housewife, bargain eggs, -the turn- over in egg marketings at Windsor increased enormously. So import- ant did this egg market become that eggs from many points in On- tario began rolling to Windsor. Not only did established -dealers profit by this egg boom, but many newcomers set up for business in doorways and on the sidewalks near the Windsor Farmers' Mar- ket. What always happens under such conditions is that among the egg arrivals some are sure to be below grade, yet may be offered for sale by inexperienced dealers. If this condition is allowed 'to continue unchecked, the buyer suffers de- spite bargain prices. Knowing this, egg inspectors of the Dominion Department of Agri- culture's Marketing Service took to the task of checking for quality more eggs than had ever come to Windsor before. They cracked down on offenders, holding ship- ments under detention until they were regraded. So vigilant were these inspectors that they even succeeded in tracking down fifty cases of an improperly graded shipment of bad eggs which had already been distributed to the re- tail trade. Today, there is little difference in egg prices on Detroit and Windsor markets, But still the shoppers keep coming over the bor- der. Why? They say, "We like the quality and cleanliness of Can- adian eggs." So what began as a bargain mar- ket has become a quality market, and W. A. Brown, Assistant Direc- tor of Marketing Service, says that even now, few Canadian egg pro- ducers or dealers have any idea how • valuable our Border markets can be.

For this reason a great deal of study is continuously given to Gallup Poll results and to the fac- tors that appear to have influenced Past elections. When the latest Gallup Poll showed that Canada's two major parties had maintained, t h e strength they had at the last elec- tion and that a slight C.C.F. gain came from the newer parties, the political "dopesters" renewed their researches in an effort to predict the next election. One significant thing noted was that the federal Liberal party polled a larger vote in an election than the poll indi- cated and that the C.C.F. party failed to reach the vote predicted by the "poll." Comparing conditions today with conditions following World War I, there is general agreement that, while the Lil:sial Party won the election .of 1921 largely because of reaction against a Conservative government on account of post-war inflation and the high cost of liv- ing, post-war conditions today fav- or the Liberal government. In the first post-war inflation wages and employment lagged far behind pric- es. Today employment was never at a higher level in Canada. Wages have kept pace in most industries with prices, in numerous instances wage rises preceded the higher prices. The great bulk of the popu- lation today is at work eating and spending more than" in all history. Farm, Prices and Conditions It was the farmers of Canada who lead the revolt against the Conservative Government in 1921. The Progressive party elected 64 members and the Liberals 117, leaving the Conservatives third with 50. The reason was to..be found in rapidly failing prices for farm products — wheat dropped. from ,a fixed price of $2.21 plus dividends to a free price of $1,18 and meat and dairy products show- ed a similar decline. Today the farmers cash .income is higher than it has ever been, even increasing since the . end of the war. The first six months of 1998 showed a cash sale of pro- ducts of 974 million dollars com- pared to 732 million for the first half of 1947 and 620 million for the half 01 1946. '(,Dominion Bureau of Statistics figures). But even that is not the whole story. Floor pric- es have been arranged for the prin- cipal farm products giving the farmer a measure of security he never had before. Many observers believe that these factors indicate the reason why farm support for Socialism has dwindled in Saskat- chewan and Ontario as shown in provincial elections this year. Bye -Elections There is considerable interest here in the two bye -elections to be held on October 25, In Algoma East where the new minister of External Affairs, Hon. L. B. (Mike) Pearson is. the Liberal candidate, the 'Progressive Conservative As- sociation apparently embarrassed Premier George Drew by inviting him to be its candidate. A few days later, apparently without waiting for a reply from Mr. Drew, it announced that it would not have a candidate in the election. No definite word on other opposi- tion candidates has come as this is being written. In Rosthern, Saskatchewan, the bye -election was caused by the re- signation of Walter Tucker to ac- cept the provincial Liberal leader- ship, No announcement has yet been made of any apposition to the Liberal candidate. In the provin- cial election in Rosthern the C.C.F. candidate lost bis deposit," MORN OUT a getWen/tied and drag aremid each day, unable to do the work—cranky with the ehlldren—feeling miserable, don't blame it on 'nerves.
