The Cause of Father Stephen' Eckert is the first one the Order has undertaken in North America. "Father Stephen Eckert was born at St. Columban, Ont., April 28, 1869. After completing his classical studies at St. Jerome's College, Kitchener, Ont., he enter- ed the Franciscan Capuchin Or- der in Detroit, Mich., May 21, 1891, and was ordained to the Holy Priesthood in Milwaukee, W4e., July 2, 1896. "Father Stephen Eckert spent the first years 'of his priesthood in New York City and Yonkers, N.Y. He soon won, esteem as a zealous miesionary . and able retreat mas- ter. But not satisfied with this he longed to do missionary work for the neglected negroes in the south- ern states. This finally led to his appointment to St. Benedict the Moor Mission for the Colored in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Here he found his true work in ' 1913. He devoted his health, talents and time unreservedly to the welfare of the Mission. He continued also to preach missions and retreats, which gave him an opportunity to make known the cause of the neg- lected colored' people and to col- lect funds for the Mission in Mil- waukee. Prodigal of himself, and loved by all who knew him, he spared no efforts to train this col- ored children and their parents in the true faith, and to interest oth- ers in the apostolate for the negro race: "While givinga mission at Britt, Iowa, Father Eckert contracted pneumonia. He returned to Mil- waukee a sick man, and died there on February 16, 1923." "Does the doctor think your wife is going to die, Mr. Jones?" "Blamed if I know." "Didn't he tell you something as 'to the chances?" "Yep, he told me to prepare ,for the worst; and, darned if he hasn't got Me guessing." World Meat Maket A moderate rise in the quantity of meat moving from exporting. countries and a sharp increase in imports by the United Kingdom were dominant features of inter- ational meat trade in 1953, ac- cording to the U.S. Foreign Agri- cultural Service. About 4.1 billion pounds of merit entered world trade in 1953 from the 45. countries for which detail- ed estimates have been, prepared, compared with 3.9 billion a year earlier and 4 billion in 1951. In- ternational trade in meat during each of the past three years has been below the 1946-50 average of 4.5 billion pounds. The United Kingdom is by far the largest meat -importing coun- try in the world and accounted for 76 per cent of all meat enterjng international trade in 1953. Im- ports of 3.2 billion pounds in 1053 were almost 800 million greater than in 1952 and were moderately greater than the average in 1946- 50; they were still below pre-war. Although home production contin- ued at a high level in 1953, per capita consumption, which was limited by rationing, was still con- siderablybelow pre-war. New Zealand was the leading ex- porter of meat in 1953, as -in the previous year, accounting for 21 per cent of the total entering in- ternational commerce. The ex- portable surplus in 1953 declined moderately from the record of a year earlier. New Zealand's ex- ports continue large in 1954 with record numbers of livestock on farms and the large slaughter is continuing.

(Kincardine News);.. Using such things as tooth brush tubes,:'orange peels,'' bathytherano- grape and curiosity, researchers' are making the first thorough stu- dy of the Great Lakes since those inland seas were formed thousands of years ago. -Findings of the investigation will provide undamental knowledge of the lakes' environment and 'could possibly, through a. greater knows ledge of the currents, give a boost to the waniug fishing industry. Much of the work to date has been in Lake Huron and Grand Traverse Bay in Lake Muchigan. Knowledge of the currents is im- portant to commercial fishing be- cause the currents carry an al- most infinite number of minute or- ganisms called Plankton, on which fish feed. The fish' tend to con- gregate where the Plankton are found in greatest number. This us- ually is in a current Or where a current sweeps by. It's in the mapping of these cur- rents that the tooth brush tubes and the curiosity of John Q. Public come into play. The tubes or drift bottles are put overboard at vari- ous locations in the body of water being studied. When they float ashore they are objects of considerable interest be- cause persons still seem to be look- ing for notes in bottles even though, the days of pirates are long past. The bottles do have a note, brief- ly explaining the research, plus a post card which the finder is ask- ed to mail after he has noted on the card where and when he found the "botttle." Several cards have come back with highly detailed notes looa:t- ing exactly where the bottle was picked up. Others merely have indicated the time and some local area not mentioned on maps of the lakes, , This latter method doesn't make the investigators too happy—but they're very glad to get the information—even though they then .have to find someone who knows just Where that spot is. While it may be the most inter- esting• part of the study to many persons. charting oP the currents —it was first done in 1899 by the U.S. Bureau of Fisheries—is only pant of the investigation. ' This time researchers are seek- ing to learn all they can of these tremendous lakes. Hence, at every spot where bot- tles are set adrift, water tempera- ture at various depths are taken. To find these a rocket-like in- strument called a bathythermo- graph is sent to the bottom and. then retrieved. It plots on a glass slide water temperature changes according to depth as it goes to the bottom. Water samples also are taken at various depths. These are to be analyzed in a laboratory for chemi- cal and mineral content and the number of Plankton present. The "orange peels" are used to obtain samples of the lake bottom. These are devices with four orange peel -like teeth which take a bite of the lake floor. Sending an "or- ange peel" down is a relatively simple matter but getting it back from 400 to 600 toot depths takes muscle if the ship being used has no mechanical means of winding up Aim rope to which the "orang peal" is attached. Bottom samples, which also are analyzed in -the laboratory, so Tar have ranged &oni nothing—the bot- tom was too hard—Ito ' a curious mass of sand, clay and mud de- scribed as a gritty, colloidal clay. This is what probably happens to the water in Lake Huron: Coming from Lake Michigan it goes down the Michigan shore of Lake Huron, dips into the mouth of Saginaw Bay, and then flows down the Thumbs along the Michi- gan shore to the St. Clair River. Lake Sulierior water seems to come down Lake Huron between the Michigan shore and the mid- dle of the lake and then to touch shore on the Canadian side be- fore reading back west toward the St. Clair River. Some of the Lake Huron drift bottles have been carried by the currents into the lower Detroit River. It is likely, some of these bottles will get into Lake Erie, probably Lake Ontario and pos- sibly, although it appears remote, into the St. Lawrence River. Soil Erosion Protection of the cultural and grazing lands from the hazard of wind and water erosion mainly on surface cover. Results of experimental work up to the present time show that a good surface cover of paint residue is the 'best method to combat both wind and water erosion. Cultivate land with a good stubble mulch may be more difficult to prepare for seeding but the advantages justify the extra work that may be necessary. In the spring of the year the soils may be granular from the ac- tion of winter frost so that even low velocity winds can easily cause erosion on bare land. Research in- dicates that it is not possible to change the structure of a soil to any great extent by means of soil conditioners or incorporation of organic matter. The incorporation of large amounts of straw Into a soil in tests carried over a period of 10 years, says Frederick Bisal, Soil Research Laboratory, Swift Current, Sask., did not indicate lower erosibility by wind than the soil on adjacent plots to which no straw had been added. Likewise, synthetic' soil conditioners do not have the desired effect of creating a lumpy surface but cause a de- gree of granulation inducive to higher infiltration of water but more susceptibility to the forces of the wind. Simulated rainfall results indi- cated that loam and clay soils without surface cover had almost equal high runoff after less than three-quarters of an inch of intense rainfall. With a good surface cov- er there was a decided decrease in runoff and high rates of infiltra- tion were maintained for a long period of precipitation, especially on loam soil. %fS always Keifer with 89% of urban Canadian housewives prefer Butter to any other spread Naturally you prefer butter!
