Municipal Elections
Within the next few weeks citizens
throughout the district will have the
opportunity of electing representa-
tives from their midst to serve them
as school trustees, councillors, reeves
And mayors. On the shoulders of
those finally chosen will rest the re-
sponsibility for the proper manage-
ment of the affairs of the school sec-
tion or municipality, whichever it
may be, for the following year.
When one considers the little' in-
terest that frequently is displayed by
the average citizen in the represen-
tation he has in what, after all, is the
governing body closest to him, it is -..
remarkable that he gets as good ser-
vice as he does. .As a matter of fact
the average council or school board
operates efficiently, not because of
the interest shown by the citizens in
its election, but rather in spite of
the lack of interest.
It does not follow that to have
good representation an existing body
must be turned out and the munici-
pality turned upside down by the
excitement of an election. The re-
verse often is the case. A council or
other municipal body, who over a
period of years has rendered effici-
ent service, will normally continue
to render better service than one
who has been elected on the promise
of "it's time for a change." It takes
several years for the average citizen,
once elected to office, to become ac-
quainted sufficiently with the man-
ner in which municipalities are oper-
ated, to be in a position to fully re-
alize just what he can and can't do,
and what his responsibilities to his
fellow citizens are.
Rather than ignore municipal op-
erations in good years and demand
the head of whatever council hap-
pens to be in power in poor years,
the ratepayer, it always seemed to
• ns, would be better advised to give
careful consideration to the manner
of man he elects each and every year,
and to how, once elected, that man
carries his responsibilities. In this
way a continual flow of good mater-
ial to the governing body is assured.
One ,means of showing ones inter-
• est in the affairs of the municipality
is by attendance at the annual nom-
ination meeting. Too frequently
• nomination meetings are routine
affairs, during which certain proce-
dures are carried out in order to con-
form to the provisions of the muni-
sipal act. If ratepayers would at-
• tend nomination meetings, prepared
to enter into an intelligent discussion
of the business of the municipality
with those they have elected to serve
them, they would be better informed
and be less given to irresponsible
criticism. At the same time the mun-
• jcipal representatives would do a
better job, because they would know
the feeling of the ratepayers and
• Imve the knowledge that the cours-
es proposed to be taken met with the
approval of the majority.
At the same time, the elected re-
presentatives have a definite re-
• spensibility to the ratepayers. There
should be no hesitation on their part,
be they school trustee or mayor, in
making available a full report of
their stewardship during the year.

A Worthwhile Appeal
Originating in Denmark in 1900,
the Christmas Seal has come to have
a particular significance for the peo-
ple of Canada. As a result of funds
raised through its sale, the preval-
ence of tuberculosis has been reduc-
ed, until today less than 40 deaths
per 100,000 of population are attrib-
uted to the disease.
What that saving in life means to
Canada from the standpoint of dol-
lars and cents, cannot be estimated,
but that it is many times in excess
of the funds contributed towards
eradication of the disease is not in
dispute.
In Huron, responsibility for the
annual Christmas Seal campaign
rests with the Huron County Christ-
mas Seal Committee, in affiliation
with the Ontario Tuberculosis As- ,
sociation. Actual details of the cam-
paign have been undertaken by Lions
Clubs located in various towns of
the county. As a result of this ar-
rangement, the campaign in the Sea -
forth area, comprising Seaforth, Mc-
Killop and Tuckersmith, is in charge
of the Seaforth Lions Club.
Seaforth and district .citizens -
nearly two thousand of tliem-last
summer took advantage of free chest
X-ray facilities made possible by the
support in past years given the
Christmas Seal campaign. The con-
tinued support of everyone is neces-
sary if tuberculosis is to be eliminat-
ed. Buy Christmas Seals. It is good
business.

Inflation
A recent news despatch from the
U.S., telling of a father who had of-
fered his daughter in marriage for
$7,500, not only brought home the
extent to which prices have risen,
but goaded the Manchester Guardian .
to carry out extensive research into
the price situation as it obtains in
the wife market in Britain.
The market has been somewhat
dull of late, the Guardian found. Its
survey, however, brought forth some
interesting facts concerning the
business in the past when it report-
ed:
"The price of a wife at the begin-
ning of the last century was rather ,
low in this country. At Chapel -en -
Frith in 1802, a wife, a thild, and 'as
much furniture as would set up a
beggar' cost 11 shillings. There were
some higher prices; 24 shillings and
a bowl of punch, for instance; and
at Hull as much as 20 guineas was a
recorded price. The Morning Post
referred in 1807 to 'scenes which of
late have become too common' when
at Knaresborough at the Market
Cross a wife was sold for six -pence
and a quid of tobacco. A case at
Doncaster where the price was a
guinea was reported to have ended
happily. Even down to the 1880's
gases were reported with prices as
low as a glass of ale and; in another
instance, one penny and a dinner."
Comparing its information with
the American report, the Guardian
found evidences of an inflationary
trend in the U.S. "They have big
ideas in America," it said.

Ed. Higgins was also drawing

Toni Weatherbee, the road super

patching up spots that have taken
a bit of beating from the truckel

The first time I met Ed, he pull-

him about fixing up the laneway
He suggested that I draw -some
coarse stuff •first from the crusher
and then spread. a few loade of fine
gravel over the top. Ed., Puffing
stolidly on his pipe, told me that
he was drawing the. gravel for the
foundation of a new pig pen. I
then told him a few ideas I had
about the way pig pens should be
designed, so as to make them easJ
ler to work around, and that some
thing should be leant that would
ease up on the job of loading pigs
in a truck.
I clacked to my team and he
clacked to his and we drove apart:
On my way- I met Tom Weather-,

him about the laneway and he
gave me .some advice. Then he
told me about the pitchholes in
the roadway, and I told Wire what
I thought about them, particularly'
the ones that seem: to appear each
Spring. He drove on and I drove

On my way back with the empty
wagon I met Ed. with a full load
of gravel. We stopped and agreed
upon this being a rentarkable sea-
son for weather. This was follows

Farmers' Supplies Closely Guarded
There has been much improve-
ment in -the quality - of feeding
stuffs, fertilizers and pesticides
supplied to/ Canadian farraers• in
the last fee' years, the result of in-
creased knowledge of feeding
plants and animals,' and in control-
ling insects and other pests.
The better feeding stuffs reflect
the development of the science of
animal nutrition. It is now pos-
sible for farmers to purchase well-
balanced feeds for each kind of
livestock and poultry a.s required:
for the different purposes. Such.
was not possible even fifteen years'
ago. The quality and quantity of
Canadian livestock and poultry
and their products have improved,
accordingly. '
The same applies to fertilizers
which are now supplied for differ.:
ent crops and soils. These con-
tain the plant foods which plant
nutritionists have found are neces-
sary for these varied crops and
soil types.
As to pesticides now sold, they
are formulated to meet the find-
ings of a generation or more of
scientific study in the entomologi-
cal services of the Dominion De-
partment of Agriculture and Pro-
vincial Departments. Each kind
of insecticide, fungicide, bacteri-
cide is intended for specific uses
and within its own field of use May
be expected to give satisfactory re-
sults.
The improvement lit these pro-
ducts 13 dee in large part to the
application of the Acts of tile
Dominion Department of Agricul-
ture respecting feeding stuffs, fer-
tilizers and pesticides. The stand-
ards of quality under these Acts,
subject to which the trade must
sell, are kept up to date with the
findings of the sciences concern-
ed. The administration and en-
forcement of the Acts and thee
standards under them, is the re-
sponsibility of the Plant Products
Division which prior to 1936 was
known as The Seed Branch.

High Quality Seed Available
An abundance of high quality
seed for important kinds and var-

Atomic Energy and Fertilizers
Since the discovery of the atomic
bomb, there has been considerable
publicity as to the value of radio-
active materials in promoting
plant growth. If these materials
were found valuable in compound
fertilizers, it would prove a good
outlet for a by-product of the
atomic industry. On the other
hand, unless they were proved to
have definite value, it would mere-
ly add to the cost of such fertiliz-
ers.
This problem was discussed at
the annual meeting of the Associa-
tion of American Control officials
held in Washington, D.C., recently.
The general opinion at the meet-
ing was that radio -active materials
should not be included in com-
pound fertilizers at the present
time, as there was no definite
proof that such materials, if added,
would Promote plant growth.
It was agreed-, however, that
they were valuable as tracer ele-
ments; that is, certain of the ma-
terials could be traced through
plantsand animals. Used experi-
mentally as: tracers, it woulki be
possible with their aid to ascertain
how much of some elements plants.
took from the soil itself and how
mach came from material which
was applied.
For the present, the meeting de-
cided, such materials were a most
useful tool in the hands of the re-
search worker, but until much
more was known of their possibili-
ties, their use should not be en-
couraged as a component in fer-
tilizer.

More Plant Food At Less Cost
There is a definite demand, for
higher analysis fertilizer in East-
ern! Canada. This has been the
case for some time, because it is
the total amount of plant food in
the fertilizer that counts and not
the total weight of the fertilizer,
About twenty-five years ago the
average plant food: ,content in mix-
ed fertilizer was around 122 per
cent as compared with the pres-
ent 22 per cent. About thirtYI
years ago much of the fertilizer
sold was as low as. 1-8-1 analysis,
which was later increased to 248-4.
The lowest grade fertilizer sold to-
day. is a 2-12-6 and in, some Parte
of Canada this grade is being re-
