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."

President of th I1}ron Milk Producers• AssoQ'atin.. 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. • A. 0. •Elliott, Exeter, Huron di- rector of the Waterloo Cattle Breeders' Association, explained some aspects of the artificial in- semination program of his organ- ization.

Zurich Hockey Official Gives View On Trouble Reginald Blake, secretary of the Zurich Hockey Club, has taken ex- ception to a report that the fight 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 ell 'the „.

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.

Operators of seed cleaning plants who know that any seed 'contains too many weeds would iia individ- ual farmers and the community in general a real service by endeav oaring to discourage the use of such seed. Only too often weeds originate from screenings which get scatter- ed around a farm. Screenings from most small seeds have practically no feeding value and they are bet- ter etter not used for that purpose. It is a' saving in the long run to de- stroy them and the surest way is by burning.

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.
