to Britain, Western Europe, and
the Levant.
Milk marketing in Britain; Mr.
Snyder said, is very well organized.
In most European countries he ob-
served, agriculture and dairying
rest on family labor. "It's surpris-
ing," he said, "how simply people
can live, and how happy they can
be with very little."
A motor trip of 150 miles through
Arab lands, said Mr. Snyder, was
a revelation to an Ontario farmer,
who would scarcely have believed
unless he saw it, that agriculture
could be continued, without change
or improvement in methods, over
a period of thousands of years. He
made his trip at harvest season,
and saw oxen walking in a circle
to tramp out the grain on the
threshing floors, and saw men
throwing the grain in the air to
let the wind carry away the chaff.
Breeder Reports Trip
"What astonished me," said Mr.
Snyder, "was how for 3.000 years
they could throw grain among
those stones at seeding -time, and
harvest it by reaping among the
stones, with great difficulty, and
do the same thing year after year
—and never take the time to pick
up those stones."

said that he had been most 11
pressed by the aCeontplishihlents ok
a co-operative organized, by dairy
farmers in the Fraser Valley of
British, Columbia, The farmers' or-
ganization there, he ksaid, owns
three large milk plants, which can
handle all the milk produced hey-
the menrhers, and take in sure us
milk from other plants as v ell.
The dairy business in Canada
said Mr. Hill, "Is in the most 1 re -
carious Position it .has been in. In
the history of the country." in the
United States, he said, a synthetic
substitute for ice cream is being
marketed at about half the price
of genuine ice cream, and is g in
ing a large share of the mat ket.
There has been one type of syn-
thetic ice cream on •sale in Ontario
for the past two years, said Mr.
Hill.
Seek Protection
The man on the street may ask,
said Mr. Hill: "Wihat right have
you to deprive me of a cheap pro
duct if I want it?" The public
should be reminded, he continued,
that the Government has seen fit to
protect Canadian shirt producers
by barring cheap .shirts from im-
port, and to .protect glove produc-
ers by barring cheap gloves. These
things should be cited as prece-
dents by farm organizations, •he
said, when they ask the Govern-
ment to protect the dairy industry
by barring cheap substitutes for
dairy products.
Mr. Hill advised that members
of the Huron Milk Producers' As-
sociation should talk to their local
members of the Ontario Legisla•
ture, to explain the need for pro-
tection of the dairy industry
against substitute foods made with
vegetable oils, Soybean growers,
Mr. Hill declared, are ready to sup-
port the Dairy Farmers of Canada
in a campaign against imported
vegetable oils. •

Gives View On Trouble
Reginald Blake, secretary of the
Zurich Hockey Club, has taken ex-

in Zurich arena last week was
started when Zurich fans stormed
the Hensall players' bench.
Be said the trouble started when
two 'rival players "mixed it up" in
the penalty box, adding that the
dispute was quelled with the help
of Hensall and Zurich spectators.
He said he had no knowledge
that charges had been laid as a
result of the melee.

SPARE THE •ROD . .
There's a lot of talk these days
about whether or not a parent
should spank his children. Some
of the child psychologists say,
"No, never!" Others say, "Yes;
within reason."
What's. "within reason"?
Well, I'm no expert, but I think
it means never strike ac.yyoungster
in a rage or with deliberate cruel-
ty. If you let your temper go—and
every mom or Pop knows how hard
it is some times to keep from get-
ting exasperated with a stubborn
young one—then you're likely to do
something you'll be ashamed of af-
terwards. Dr you may end up in
court.
Not too far away from here—too
close for.eomfort—a father was
made to appear the other day
charged with chasing his thirteen -
year -old daughter around a farm-
yard, slashing at her with a whip.
The parent said it wasn't a whip
but a maple switch—as if that
made any difference! The girl her-
self said she wasn't hurt and a
doctor agreed, saying she had worn
a heavy coat and no damage was
done. The magistrate reprimand-
ed the father, but let him off be-
shment could be meted
no punishment cause, by some:quirk of the
d out
to the girl because sh'e was not
physically harmed. As the magi-
strate said, the heavy coat saved
the father from any penalty.
But what of the girl.? Oan you
say that just because she bore no
scars on her back, no -damage had
been done? Just think what a
child must feel about a parent who
gets so far out of control that he
would wantonly chase after her,
slashing at her with a horsewhip.
The scars, I suspect, were the kind
which don't show—theywere etch-
ed deep into that young girl's heart
and soul, and it will be happy in-
deed if no permanent and disas-
trous psychological damage has
been done.
And what of the father?• One
hopes that he has learned his les-
son. It may well be that he had
tremendous provocation. For ex-
ample, there was a hint in the evi-
dence that the neighbors had been

interfering. They may have to
take some of the blame. But, just
the same, he got completely out of
control and that can lead to mon-
strous results.
It does too, Not much farther
away, other parents, this time a
mother and father, have been
charged with murdering a small
child. The same thing is said to
have happened in a Toronto home
and there was evidence that the
little tot had been badly beaten
many times before it was actually
killed.
This is where an ungovernable
temper can lead when the passions
are allowed to go unchecked, and
what tiny child can stand up to a
crazed and .brutual man or woman?
The law, apparently, can do
nothing about it until actual, visi-
ble harm has been done. The pro-
vincial minister of health is at this
moment trying to figure out a way
to protect children from this kind
of maltreatment, but his scheme for
putting the control into the hands
of a Children's Aid agency sounds
dangerous to me.
I am enough of anindividualist
to belietre that no agency ever con-
trived by man can administer moral
right and wrong in subtle cases
like this. I think -it is dangerous
for them to have the power. Just
the same something has to be done
to curb this rash of violence we
seem to have with us these days.
The work has got to be done on
the human heart and it is the re-
sponsibility of everyone by precept
and example to see that this is
done. The leadership has come to
us from the throne itself. As the
late King George VI once said,
"Take care of the children and the
country will take care of itself,"
and as his daughter, our new
Queen, said not so long ago, "To
be cruel to a little child is indeed
a dreadful crime."
It is clear that it is a sacred
duty of every loyal subject to fol-
low these precepts of two of our
most beloved sovereigns—two who
in their own homelife have showed
the value to the state and to man-
kind in taking care of the little
children.

tain an even production of eggs
throughout the year.
Now is the time to make_ plans
for early batched birds in 1953.
Early pullets, when properly cared
for, are profitable for commercial
egg production. in the late fall
months and they are also profitable
for the production of ihatehing
eggs in the latter part of the win-
ter. Poultry production facilities
should be checked now and ade-
quate facilities made available for
healthy well-bred Chicks as soon as
they are hatched in the late winter
and early spring months. Such
foresight will help assure maximum
profits from poultry products.
Winter Good Time to
Repair Machinery
Delays arising from machinery
repairs during seeding and harvest
time often cause considerable crop
losses, It Is a good plan to over-
haul machinery in the winter
months as this gives plenty of time
to order spare parts if such are
necessary, or to have repairs done
elsewhere- which are beyond the
capabilities of the farm work shop.
In overhauling machinery, all
bearinge, ,axles and similar parts
subject to considerable wear should
be taken apart and examined care-
fully. Any that are not likely to
work well for another year should
be replaced. Other parts should be
thoroughly cleaned and examined,
taking particular care to see that
lubricating devices are working
properly. Don't overlook the kin, -
