Educating Citizens
All too frequently when considera-
tion is given educational programs
and processes, the emphasis is placed
on the dollar and cent results which
stem from the program. Rarely is
thought given to the extent to which
the individual is provided with the
background necessary to permit him
to take his place and accept his re-
sponsibilities as a citizen in his com-
munity and his country.
A fanious soldier of World War II
recognized the problem. General
Dwight David Eisenhower, shortly
after he assume& the presidency of
Columbia University, was discussing
the work of the university with a
former professor. The professor in
a complacent fashion told the Presi-
dent: "In our graduate schools we
have some of America's most excep-
tional physicists, mathematicians,
chemists and engineers." Eisen-
hower answered softly, "But are
they exceptional Americans?"
He went on: "The job of a univers-
ity is to turn out useful citizens. I
have the greatest respect for the
high academic standards of the uni-
versity and, believe me, those stan-
dards will never be lowered while I
am here. .But no university can live
in an intellectual vacuum. Every
man and woman who enters this uni-
versity must leave it a better Ameri-
can, or we have failed in our main
purpose."
Eisenhower's words apply equally
to Canadian schools and universities.
It is all very well to consider the
holder of a high school diploma, or
of a B.A. degree an educated man,
but unless that man understands lib-
erty—the sense of duty and civic
consciousness that make liberty pos-
sible—then he is not a good citizen
in the full sense of the word.
The process of becoming a good
citizen can not be mechanical. It is
not just a matter Of learning to sa-
lute the flag. Responsible citizenship
can only come about as a result of an
awareness of the community in
which one lives and of one's responsi-
bility to that community and the
other citizens of which it is compris-
ed. In some, this sense of citizen-
ship may be innate; in others, it must
be acquired. It is in respect of this
latter group that our schools and our
universities must assume a particu-
• lar responsibility.

Bringing Up Children
Ever since earliest days there has
been argument as to the best way of
bringing up children. Every few
years it seems the accepted methods
change, but despite the procedures
employed during particular genera-
tions, the results don't vary to any
great extent. Some boys and girls
turn out to be the pride and joy of
their parents; others are the source
of continuous headaches and heart-
aches.
Discussing the problem the Saint
John Telegraph -Journal comes u15.
with some pretty sound advice that
• can be taken to heart by parents any-
where and at any time.
"We are inclined to think that pro-
perly trained children always have
been and will be respectful to their
parents and ill -brought -up brats
de and contemptuous.
`1'Who is responsible for the right
pbringing of children? In normal
amilies it is the parents and a dis-
- 'Pectful child is usually a mark of
itaIfailure.
"hat is very generalized and
e are many exceptions, but as a
It Sate&
.also that thildren pick
up bad nners from undisciplined
eon -manic) ; 1414 eYerY parent should
be, and most responsible parents are,
on the lookout for that happening.
"Generally a little wise correction
promptly applied will put things
right, especially if a good foundation
already has been lAid. There is like-
wise the matter of parental example
in their acts and words to and con-
cerning others and particularly in
the presence of their children?'
•
Is Man Grouftng Obsolete?
At this time of year, the matter of
depreciation and obsolescence are
uppermost in the' minds of those who
are worrying over filling out income
tax returns. We hear a lot, too,
about obsolete machinery, obsolete
planes and obsolete weapons.
Pursuing the thought further the
Edmonton Journal poses the uncom-
fortable question, "Is man himself
growing obsolete?"
"Take, for example," the Journal
says, "the human eye—a truly mar-
velous optical instrument of which
we have every right to be proud. It
can 'spot' an object, near or far, and
flash -a message to the brain with al-
most instantaneous speed. Yet it is
*ready becoming insufficient for the
management of airplanes at super-
sonic speeds.
"The eye is not the only organ
which is proving unsatisfactory in
the modern world of technology. The
human ear cannot hear sounds above
or below a certain pitch, and it has
l
had to be replaced by mechanical de-
tectors in many industrial pera-,
tions. The selenium cell or ' ectric
eye' has largely taken over the old
function of the sense of touch in
sorting and testing materials.
"Even the human brain is increas-
ingly unable to cope with the higher
mathematics, and it is being more
and more supplemented by electronic
calculators which can solve the 'me-
chanics' of a problem in a fraction of
the time it would take Einstein."
•
Not Much Help
We are told a firm is manufactur-
ing a woman's handbag which is de-
signed to help a woman find a key-
hole in the dark. Built into the side
of the bag is a light which flashes on
when the bag is opened. The idea is
that the beam of light will illumin-
ate the keyhole and thus relieve the
lady of the house from fumbling in
the dark.
From what we have seen of wo-
men's handbags, we doubt the gad-
get will be of much help. What is
needed is a light that shines into the
bag and some arrangement that will
sort out the key from the welter of
odds and ends that the bag undoubt-
edly will contain. There is not much
use in a light pointing the way to the
keyhole if the lady can't find the key.

WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY:
FREE. FLOW OF NEWS
• (The Barrie Examiner)
The editorial work -connected with
the publishing of a newspaper fol-
lows a logical sequence. The report-
ers and correspondents gather the
news items and they are printed.
However, there is a problem that
constantly plagues the publisher,
that is how to deal with the person
who attempts to interfere wih the
free flow of news.
Sometimes a person at a public
meeting makes a statement and then
ass not to be quoted. Occasionally
soineone runs afoul of the law and
then he, or some member of his fam-
ily, tries to suppress the details. The
usual plea is that innocent persons
will suffer from the publication /of
the report.
Some of these people would be in-
dignant if they thought some group
other than themselves had the power
to censor news reports. But when
they try to do it on an individual
basis, there is often an attempt to
give the impression that it is a good
thing.
The publisher of a newspaper is
much like any other merchant. The
product he has to sell is news. When
some of the news is suppressed, the
product is worth less and the demand
by the subscribers falls off.

Lookitig Backward-,
Dy R. J. Dunsmore
(Article Ten)
While the light el,vly eyes holds
burn,
(Sonaewlaat ilichery),
I'll strive to write my weekly turn,
(By hickory).
One of the chief joys of boyhood
and girlhood days has all but dis-
appeared from Western Ontario—
cutter riding! Occasionally, down
here in the southern Part pf On-
tario, where there is an oecitisional
heavy tall of snow, somebody digs
up an old, rusty cUtter, covered
with hen -dirt, and sails gaily along
the street. People stand road stare
at it, as they did long ago at the
first "tin Lizzies..!
One blizzardly, very cold after-
noon I was plodding hos
from school, head down against the
storm. I had had to go to the store
after school, and all the other kids
had gone on ahead. Just after I
passed Westfall's house, the last
on the western limits of Egmond-
ville, a peal of musical cutter .bells
sounded behind me. I looked back.
Sure enough it was a cutter com-
ing! It was a swell looking cut-
ter, a town cutter, with fox tails
flying over the back, and piles of
buffalo robes over the seat! I
didn't expect a ride, and that was
before the days of hitch -hiking, so
I didn't raise my thuinb. But to
my delight and astonishment, the
cutter, drawn by a splendid young
horse, came to a halt right beside
me.
"Jump in!" said a cheery voice.
The man driving had on fur gaunt-
lets, wore a Persian Iamb cap, and
was buried in soft, buffalo robes.
Ile threw them back and I piled
in. Never in my short life had I
had such a gorgeous ride. We
seemed to fairly skim over the
road. My admiration of the splen-
did horse was only exceeded by
my instant admiration of the dis-
tinguished and kindly -spoken driv-
er. He was my boyish ideal of a
king or emperor.
We got to the toll -gate corner
all too soon; an incredibly short
time—ending an incident that has
never faded from my memory.
I learned afterward that this
kind-hearted and handsome man
was Mr. M. Y. McLean, publisher
of the Hufon Expositor.
Requieecat in pace!
Another cutter ride that stands
out not so pleasantly in my mem-
ory. One winter day, when I was
about 16 years old, I came home
on account of one of my sisters
getting married. It transpired that
Seep in the vounty- papets-.
the minister who was to perform
the ceremony, was coining by
train to BrUcefield, and had to be
met and "fetched," as the English
say. So I was elected to drive to
Brucefield with a -horse and cutter
and collet his reverence, wheel I
had never met or heard of before.
(After I had, I decided, if I never
met him again it would be '.too
soon!) He was one of those
smooth, unctious, smug spiritual
airmen who don't realize that
there is a time and a place for
everything.
I had him tucked in the cutter
snugly, and started on the' three-
mile and three-quarter drive home.
The road was decorated with the
many deep pitch -holes *common to
Ghat day. Scarcely had we started.
when Rev. Brank started to preach
to me, in the particularly offen-
sive whining ministerial voice that
I detest. As we cleared Brotield
and got in sight of the pitch- oles
ahead, he droned: "Ah! my dear
young friend! .Are you saved,?" A
pitch -hole being right handy, I
drove into it sideways, purposely.
As I knew it would, the cutter
tipped over on. the preacher's side,
dumping him neatly head -first in-
to deep snow. I stepped out quiet-
ly on my side. I righted the cut-
ter, brushed the holy man off, and
loaded him up again. That inci-
dent didn't phase him. "As I was
saying, my dear friend, are you
saved?"
"Oh, sure!" I replied, "and the
buffalo robe, too. Nothing was lost
out."
He looked sort of pained, but
presently got his second wind, and'
began to blat again. "My boy, I
hope you will shun all temptations
in life—"
His luiRs were blasted right
there, for there was another par-
ticularly inviting pitch -hole, and,
somehow, I drove sideways into it..
Out went the preacher, head and
shoulders, in the snow. He came
up, spluttering!
"Seems to be quite a habit of
• yours, sir," I remarked, conversa-
tionally.
This time he seemed to be some-
what provoked. "You're a jack-
ass!" he spluttered.
"Yes, sir," I answered, meekly;
"there's a pair of us. Let us
BRAY."
He simmered down into absolute
silence till I dumped him out right
side up at our destination.
Somehow, I don't think that
preacher liked me very much!
He got someone else to drive
him back to Brucefield.

On Improving Pastures
Good productive pastures offer
the stock grower a number of im-
portant advantages, says W. T.
Burns, Superintendent of the Ex-
perimental Sub -Station, at Smith-
ers, B.C.:
. (1) The forage from pasture is
harvested in the cheapest possible
manner—this in marked contrast
to the labor required for storing
hay.
• (2) The forage from well main-
tained pastures is of the highest
quality possible—it is unweather-
ed, contains all the 'vitamins re-
quired by the animals and miner-
als if the latter are supplied .by
the soil or fertilizers.
(3) Good pasture herbage in the
spring and early summer is high
in protein and stimulates aired
growth in,young animals and high
output in producing animals --dur-
ing this period. animals senerally
make the largest part of their
growth.

Fertilizers For Potatoes
The rate at which fertilizer
should be applied to potatoes de-
pends not only on the soil. but on
climatic and economic factors. Us-
ually, the increase in yield from h
gwen-quantity of fertilizer falls off
at the higher rates of application.
This is illustrated by results ob-
tained in recent fertilizer tests
with potatoes on different soil
types in Eastern Canada.
In six tests, on soil types !n
Prince Edward. Island and one in
New Brunswick, where an average
yield of 140 pounds of potatoe,i per
acre was produced on unfertilized
plots, the yield per acre •)btained
on plots receiving different fertil-
izers at a rate of 1,000 pounds per
acre was 228 bushels as compared
with 237 bushels for a rate of 1,500
poUnds. and 248 bushels for a rate
of 2,000 pounds.
However, potatoes will respoad
to substantial rates of fertilizer as
shown by results obtained in five
tests on soinl types in the vicinity
of Ottawa, Ont. The average yield
of potatoes was increased from 222
bushels per acre ansthe untreated
plots to 243 bushels where fertil-
izers were applied at 500 pounds
per acre; and to 267 bushels where
a rate of 1,000 pounds was employ-
ed.
The most economical results will
be obtained where careful conse
eration is given to other factors in
management such as the inclusion
of sod crops. preferably legumes,
in the rotation, and the proper use
of barnyard manure where avail-
able, reports A. J. MacLean. Field

perimental Farm, Ottawa.
Powdered Milk To Fifty Markets
"Canada has exported dry whole
milk to about 50 different countries
in 1949, but foreign markets are
being restricted now by exchange
problenia. This is one of the rea-
sons why, after a,ver-y rapid ex-
pansion during the waf, the conel
•
centrated milk industry is suffer-
ing from so-called 'growing pains'
and some adjustments of necessity
have been and are taking place,"
D. B. boodwillie. Chief of Dairy
Products Grading and, Inspection
Services, Federal Department of
Agriculture, said at the annual
meeting of Quebec Dairy Tech-
nicians Association, at St. Hya-
cinthe, Que.
"There are two factors which, if
continued, will have a serious ef-
fect on the development and pros-
perity of the concentrated milk in-
dustry." added the speaker. "Some
manufacturers and dealers have
sold goods in certain markets
which were not in accordance with
the official grades. This practice
not only has done the seller harm,
but bas undermined the reputation
df our products in these markets.
If the manufacturer deliberately
tries to mislead the governmen:. s
grader. he is simply fooling him-
self — a practice which usually
proves expensive in lost markets
as well as in other ways.
"Another point which should be
kept in mind is that packages us-
ed for the sale 'of goods should be
attractive, clean, neatly and cor-
rectly branded. There is little to
be gained in producing a high
quality product if it, in turn, is
placed in a cheap, dirty, poorly and
incorrectly branded package:,
Mr. Goodeillie had previously
stated that the domestic use of
evapoyated milk was approximate-
ly double what it was ten years
ago and that it was still increas-
ing. One reason, he said, for this
development was that a high qual-
ity product has been produced and
sold. Sweetened condehsed milk
was affected by the exchange prob-
lems to a greater extent than oth-
ers. owing to the fact that over 60
per cent of Canada's production
was exported.
' According to the Chief of Dairy
Products Inspection and Grading,
Canada is, developing a good trade
in dry skira-milk, "a trade which
promises to expand, providing we
can produce high quality goods of
a type required by the user." About
casein which is manufactured to a
larger extent in Quebec than in
any other province, he -said: -"Prob-
ably the greatest problem in con-
nection with the manufacture of
this product is uniformity. A num-
ber of buyers have refuees1 Cana,
dian casein on account of this de-
fect."

Pasture Weeds and 2,4-D
Even in well managed pastures,
weeds can become a serious prob-
lem. While fertilization will re-
duce many weeds to a negligible
proportfon, some seem to thrive
best under these conditions. For
instance, at the . Fredericton Ex-
perimental Station, reports T. 0.
Chiasson, tall buttercups have be -
collie a serious problem on the fer-
tiliaed pastures. Of late years,
Canada thistles have also been on
the increase.
