Several reports were given to the meeting. Wilfred Shortreed gave a report on the directors' meeting of the Ontario Federation held in Toronto on April 4. R. S. McKercher reported on the annual meeting of Ontario Beef Producers held in Toronto on April 14. Harry Gowdy, chairman of Huron Coun- ty Cream Producers', reported on the deputation from the Dairy Council that went tg1 Ottawa to in- terview members of the cabinet, regarding .problems facing the dairy industry today. This group is returning to Ottawa again a lit- tle latter to again attempt to in- terview the Oabinet and probably contact many of the local members. Orville Taylor, the chairman of the Hog Producers' Committee for Huron County, spoke briefly, stat- ing that little had been accom- plt'shed so far this year due to lack of adequate financing.

Plans for the 1950 Federation Field Day, to be held in Goderich on June 14, are progressing favor- ably. There was a •meeting of the sports committee in Clinton on Tuesday evening. Unfortunately it appears the floor will not be completed in the new Goderich Arena, before June 14, so will not be available for field day activities. However, oth- er facilities there will be available and should add much to the en- joyment. At the directors' meeting of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, held in Toronto on April 4, a redo- lution was forwarded to the Cana- dian Federation of Agriculture ask- ing that an investigation the start- ed at once to find the cause for the rapid rise in the price of course grains, It has been rumored that manipulation of the market is the pause of this rise in prices. Wibh feed grain at $65.00 a ton, and hogs selling at $26.50 per cwt., it makes the Government support price on hogs look more than a little out of line.

Deachman) Why do some nations live to- gether so happily, while others go around with chips on their shoul- ders, expecting every moment that the chips will be knocked off, thus establishing the basis of a quar- rel? The reason is that they see things differently. Listen over the radio to a hockey match between Toronto and Detroit. Sitting here in Ottawa, we, naturally enough, want Toronto to win simply be- cause the team is Canadian. There is no real stational prestige involv- ed. No one flies into a rage over it. It is much the sante as the ordinary school boys' game. But if the match were between the, United States and Russia our in- terest rises; we are more anxious. If the Russians lose they will no doubt claim their defeat was due to foul capitalist tricks. If they are defeated twice they will probably refuse to play again. I wonder if they play hockey in the Russian public schools! j would have more faith in them if they did. Our Western farmers go down to the Grain Show at Chicago and cop off a number of the best priz- es, especially in wheat and barley. The Americans come over here in Peterboro and Toronto, returned to his home in Kippen on Satur- day last.

It is all in the game. The rivals meet and discuss the qualities of the differ- ent animals. It is a friendly busi- ness and before it is over the Can- adians have managed to sell some of their best livestock to Ameri- can buyers, buy some from their herds. Years ago, in the First Great War, Halifax was seriously damag- ed by the explosion of an ammuni- tion ship. Asa matter of fact, the big American cities are, closer to Halite:: than we, are. They were the first on the ground with needed supplies. A neighbor was in trou- ble, that was all they needed to know. When Canadians and Amer- icans , meet there is more than a mere physical contact; there is a meeting of minds. In other words, we understand— the Americans; they understand us, and in the nor- mal contacts of differing minds, each seekjng the better way, there lies tire greatest power for peace and sanity the world has ever known. Last summer I was talking to an American who lives in a small city close to Boston. We had met be- fore, in the same place, Metis, in the Province of Quebec. So with a natural curiosity I asked him why he came to that spot every year. His answer was typical: "Darned if I know: it is hard to explain. I like the Americans I meet here and 1 like the Canadians I meet. here. If you could bottle this air and keep it around your house all summer you would be willing to pay a good deal for it, so I will be back next year and, if I am well, many years thereafter." I pondered over these things the other day as I read the story of the unarmed American patrol plane shot down by Russian planes. It should have been a simple matter to warn the American plane if it was out of bounds or over Russian territory, but apparently it wasn't. That would have happened if we hacl a common civilization, but the; Russians have been trained to re- gard the presence over adjacent waters of a foreign plane as an affront to their national dignity. They had to avenge the affront, but deep down in the Russian mind among the most intelligent of them, is the feeling that, for the present at least. they cannot ex- pose their country to the view of other people—'they have too much to hide. They have the feeling that they cannot stand comparison with other countries, and so they adopt the attitude which suits their frame of mind and act in a way which is quite impossible, from any concep- tion of friendly relations with oth- er nations: There is no meeting of minds between the Anglo-Saxon and. the Russian—mentally, they dwell in separate worlds. Many years ago I read the Life of Marshall Lyautey. There was something in Lyautey which re- minded me of Marshal Foch. Both had highly civilized minds. Mar- shal Lyautey had been sent to pacify a rebellious Morocco, a dis- turbance which followed the French occupation. He was a great soldier and a great gentleman. He recalled previous conflicts between France and Germany. France is a nation of cultured people. They would like to do away with the useless waste of war. So in his philosophical mind be raised the question which still puzzles us to- day: "How can nations live to- gether as neighbors in space, when in time they are centuries apart?" There is the barrier which sep- arates nations. Human contacts are closer now than ever before. Only time can bridge the gaps which separate the thinking of one nation from the thinking of an- other and with all our culture the march of the human mind Is slow. This is an age of power, but power must be exercised with restraint. Will. restraint increase with capa- city to strike and destroy? If It does, there' strike.

She enjoyed relating many early incidents in her life. She was true home lover, whose whole in- terest was centred in the duties of a mother. Her condition became more serious the Previous week and she gradually :became weaker. until Friday noon, when fortified by the last rites of Holy Mother Church her gentle spill passed peacefully to eternity. Mrs. Burns, Who was formerly Mary Dunn, was married to Patrick Burns, who pre- deceased her about 32 years. She was a devoted member of St. Pat- rick's atrick's Church, Dublin, also,League of the Sacred Heart and Propoga tion or the Faith. The funeral, which was largely attended •by rel- atives and friends, took place from her late residence to St. Patrick's Church, Dublin, on Monday more- ing, oreing, April 3, where Requiem Mass was chanted by Rev. Dr. Ffoulkes. After the chanting of the Libera and the Last absolution, the re- mains were taken to St. Patrick's cemetery for burial, near the rest- ing place of her beloved husband. Prayers at the ezaveside were read by Rev. Dr. Ffoulkes. Much sym- pathy is extended to her sorrow- ing family, of one son and three daughters: Thomas, at home; (Bridget) Mrs. John Kipping, Lon- don; (Margaret), Mrs. Clarence Sutton, Muskegon Heights, Mich., and (Aileen) Mrs. Clare Campbell, of Listowel; also several .grand- children. A daugher, Lizzie, and a son, Patrick, predeceasedher sev- eral years ago. Mrs. John Mulli- gan, of Seaforth, is a sister. Pall- bearers were her neighbors: Al- bert Hicknell, Carl Hicknell, John J.

Trials—during the past three years indicate that this weed may be controlled effec- tively and relatively cheaply by spraying with 2,4-D. Five acres of fertilized perman- ent pastures sprayed with two pounds of 2,4-D acid per acre in 1949 resulted in approximately 70 per cent of the tall buttercups be- ing killed. In addition, a similar control of the Canada thistles was. obtained, also a complete kill of dandelions, plantain and fall dan- delions. While the control of buttercups and thistles was not complete there is good reason to believe that repeating this treatment for a few years will eventually clean up these weeds. For best control, weeds must be sprayed in the active growing Your best bet — Want Ads. Read them in The Huron Ex- positor. Phone 41, Seaforth.
