Feagan has issued the following statement: Soon atter a landing field was es- tablished north of Saltford in the County of Huron a pageant was held to raise funds for the erection of a banger. At that time the few citi- zens who had endorsed the project bad no assurance. that the people of this County would support aviation. To the surprise of everyone, men, women and children to the estimated number of oyer forty thousand from all over the County, thronged the op- en fields and roadways. Special po- lice had to bo called In order to con- trol traffic, Sonne sixty planes took part in the pageant, coming from the United States and from every flying club In the Province of Ontario. This publicity attracted the notice of offic- ials of Civil Avlatlon in Ottawa and a representation was made to the De- partment of Transport of the Federal Government. The- Minister assured the delegates, after" he Had made a personal inspection and had sent a number of eeperts to make a complete report, Cleat Sky Harbor provided nat- ural facilities for an air port, but that before Government assistance could be granted the land would have to be in the name of a municipality, It was then that Huron County endorsed the project and levelled some of the run- ways. Shortly atter the outbreak of war, the Government wired our Coun- cil, asking them If they would be pre- pared to consider Sky Harbor • tat a training field for Empire defence, A special meeting of Council was called and our ' oply to that telegram was that the County of Huron would Pur- %Chado the .field and place It at the disposal. of His :Majesey the 'King. This patriotic gesture won the admira- tion of the Government and, might I add, of patriotic or.ganizatlons from coast to coast, and much publicity was given to our County by the press of Canada. 'At that time we had no knowledge or intlmationf as to what method the Government would use in carrying for- ward their operation of the field, but assumed that' It would be conducted by the Department of Avlatlon with their own personnel. Under the British .Commonwealth Air Training Plan, these varlous flying fields are divided Into categories and Slay Harbor was deai3nated as an Elementary Flying' School for the training of pilots and to years prior to the present wax The of 1If Milne complately demorshed the old store details of this plan have already ap- es IM. • lne was very interesting.

Saving Ontario's Natural Resources (No. 9) By G. C. TONER, Ontario Federation of Anglers IMPORTANCE OF BROOKS The headwaters of most rivers are little streams. These streams and the'Tributary feeder brooks are very important in the con- servation' of the brook trout for they are the nurseries of the young fish. Here, the trout find cool waters, • lots of the proper kind of food ..and, most import- ant of all, protection against many hungry enemies. Fishing clubs and anglers are so often' only concerned with the main stream when they should be pro- tecting and fostering the tiny brooks back in the hills. Of course, many anglers realize the value of these streams and where they have control, oftentimes close them to all fishing. Our speckled trout spawn late in the fall, usually after the rains have filled the streams so that they can reach the spawn- ing grounds. The male and fe- male trout may go into small streams that have only a few inches of water normally. Here, the male selects a gravel bar and fans out a depression. Next, he chooses a female and a few eggs are deposited. The male continues tow•fan out the depres- sion but on the upstream side, and more eggs are laid. The dig- ging of the hole the second time covers the first lot of eggs with gravel. And this continues until both male and female are ex- hausted. WHERE TROUT LAY EGGS All winter long the eggs are developing, protected against hungry_ trout and birds by the gravel: over them. Early in the spring the young trout hatch and wriggle free. For awhile they lie quietly but soon they start to feed on the minute life of the stream, Two things are absolutely es- sential if we are to have normal reproduction in the speckled trout. There must be plenty of water in the small streams for nearly the whole year and there must be gravel bars in which the trout can build their spawning depressions. Without these the natural crop of young fish will be a failure and artificial stock- ing will be needed if the angling is to be kept in good condition. If we are to maintain the trout in our streams we must see that the forest is not cut away at the headwaters of our rivers, and, if it has already been cut, we must reforest. This, I believe is the first and most important work in replenishing the speckled trout waters of southern Ontario. Famed Sam McGee Dies In Alberta Celebrated By Robert W. Service's Poem "The Cre- mation of Sam McGee" — Native of Lindsay, Ont. Sam McGee, whose name became renowned through a sourdough poem of Robert W. Service, is dead. The "Sam McGee from Tennes- see," who actually was a native of Lindsay, Ont., died in the little southern Alberta town of Beiseker, early in September. His death came 30 years after Service wrote "The Cremation of Sam McGee." The poem told how McGee from Tennessee was always "cold but the land of gold seemed .to hold him like a spell" and he finally admitted he was comfortably warns when his frozen body wa.s being cremated. WASN'T CREMATED AT ALL' McGet1, 73 years old at the time of his death, wasn't spellbound by the search for gold, either, as his chief occupations in the Yukon were copper mining and road. building. And he was not cremated. Ile was buried in Rosebud Church cemetery, a few miles from Beisek- er, After McGee left the Yukon in 1909, he gave up his northland pur- suits and went to Great Falls, Mont., where he lived for 28 years. Three years ago ho came to Bei- seker. McGee always found it difficult to convince people he was the "Sam McGee" of Service's poem but he usually did with a valedictory ad- dress presented when he left the Yukon. Two years ago he visited the Yu- kon and discovered that a two - 'room shanty he had built at White- horse in 1900 had been converted Into a tearoom that urged passers- by to "]nave a cup of tea with the ghost of Sam McGee."

King and Queen Carry On Despite Repeated Bombings of. Buckingham Palace This photo -diagram of Buckingham Palace shows how the royal residence has suffered from repeated German aerial attacks. Their majesties' private chapel (A) was completely wrecked , by one great bomb. Two more bombs fell last week in the quadrangle (B), tearing great holes in the paving and damaging surrounding walls. The front of the palace, at TOP of diagram, was pitted by another pair of bombs (C) that fell between the statue of Queen Vic':oria and the front entrance, facing towards St. James' Park. The building shown at the, bot- tom of the area inside the dotted lines is the swimming pool demolished in the first assault on the palace. THE WAR •WEE K—Commentary on Current Events "TO INVADE OR NOT ..." QUESTION FOR HITLER The desperate battle for air sue premacy over Great Britain con- tinued last week. Upon its out- come and upon the vagaries of the weather hinged a colossal invasion attempt by the Germans. Would the R. A, F. retain its Inas- tery of the British skies? Experts agreed that three factors would de- cide the war in the air: the num- her of British pilots; the amount of aviation gasoline the Nazis had; the strength of the Russian air force (which potentially opposed Germany's). "Yes" and "No" Should the worst come to the worst, superior Nazi air strength might break British civilian morale and bring victory without invasion. Should the air battle end in a draw, it was expected that Hitler, committed to produce something soon to pacify the German people, might order -the invasion anyway with resultant terrible casualties to his own men. Would he invade? Anybody's guess was as good as the next man's. Louis P. Lochner, Associat- ed Press correspondent In Berlin said "no." He foresaw the possib- ility that Germany's plans against Britain would concentrate on air war with abandonment of the in- vasion scheme. "The German air force," he declared, "will continuo its relentless acts until the British government acts" — presumably surrendering. "Impossible unless German air ma.stery is established within a definite and limited period" editor- ialized the Soviet Navy newspaper, Red Fleet. The article read: "Bri- tish air strength has been grad- ually increasing with the extensive aid of the United States. If the Germans do not succeed In reach- ing their goal — conquest of full air supremacy — within a definite and limited period, and the British air fleet is able to achieve numer- ical equality with Germany, then any German landing operations are out of the question." Bearing out the predictions on Axis strategy voiced from time to time in this column, the black shad- ow of Mussolini's legions began to move across Egypt last week, driv- ing towards the Suez Canal. It was obvious that the two dictators were working together, the Duce to pre- vent the British from withdrawing warships and airplanes from the Mediterranean area for defense of the Mother Country; the Fuehrer to keep British ships and planes engaged at home while the Duce did his big act. They evidently be- lieved that by striking simultan- eously in two most vital spots they could clean up on the British Em- pire. Franco, Too As if this weren't enough for the Government at London to be face ing, General Fv anco last week gave signs of wishing to join Germany and Italy to get his prize, Gibral- tar, He sent his brother-in-law Ra- mon Serrano Sinter to Berlin to confer with Hitler and von Ribben- trop following upon Axis pressure to allow soldiers passage through Spain. More War In The East The crisis in the Far East grew more acute, Japan had demanded troop transit across French Indo- Ch:na to enable her to strike at China along General Kai -Shelf's southern border, and a naval base at Haiphong, strategic port on the Gulf of Tonkin. The Vichy Govern- ment of Marshal Petait had agreed in principle to the demands, but China had declared that if they were granted, Chiang's troops would counter -invade Indo-China. The British and U. S, Governments had issued diplomatic warnings , . Would Japan gain her ends peace- ably or would there bo new war in the east? "Time" (Sept. 16) said: "The end toward which the Japan- ese Army had worked since 1937 was at hand: a direct challenge to the western powers to fight or pull their stakes out of the Far East . . , Few doubted that war was definitely in the saddle and headed south toward Thailand, Bri• fish Malaya, Singapore, and the 1 ich Netherlands Indies," To safeguard their own rear, the Japanese last week were making special efforts to reach an under- standing with Soviet Russia, De- clared the newspaper Kokumit (often a spokesman for the Japan- ese army) : ' The United States pre- paredness program is directed against Japan. We are the potential enemy they have in mind, not Ger- many. The leasing of British ter- ritories in the Atlantic for naval bases will be followed by similar moves in the Pacific. Relations be- tween Japan and the United States are now fraught with the danger of war." Trouble In India Trouble for Britain was also brewing in India. The powerful Con- gress Party, headed by Mohandas K. Gandhi, passed a resolution last week rescinding an offer to co- operate with Britain in prosecuting the war (Indian independence had been asked as a price), Neverthe- less Gandhi expressed his deter- mination not to embarrass Britain at this time by pushing independ- ence claims, his desire not to order civil disobedience among the mass- es of India until he deemed it ab- solutely necessary, REG'LAR FELLERS -- Preparedness SCOUTING... Emergency Public Service The effectiveness of Boy Scout training for emergency public ser- vice is impressively illustrated by a recent summary of 125 dif- ferent types of wartime good turns found by the Scouts of .Great Britain. The list includes general assistance in A.R.P. work, policing air raid shelters, filling sand bags, acting as blackout guides to the aged, infirm, mothers, children and new ar- rivals. In some places they are relieving telephone operators, In the Thames River Emergency Service they are stretcher-bear- ers, signallers, etc. They serve in hospitals, make splints, collect spagnum moss. They assist the police in traffic control; older Scouts act as special constables, In the task of evacuating child- ren they are invaluable, their tireless feet running hither and thither doing a host of things, from acting as escorts to clean- ing out empty houses to be used as billets. They are orderlies for air raid listening posts and balloon barrage units. They are most alert coast watchers, On the farms they are helping with the harvest, repairing hedges, milk- ing cows, picking hops, collecting or chopping firewood. One of the strangest Scout jobs is gathering acorns, chestnuts and rowan ber- ries for animals in the zoos, They have found numberless ways of assisting the refugees from Hol- land, Belgium and France,, meet- ing them at the stations, supply- ing them with food and guiding them to their billets. In a word the Scouts of Britain have met the 'greatest day -after -day test that has ever faced Boy Scouts, and have more than vindicated the aim and motto of their Scout training, "Be Prepared." The Book Shell BUILDING THE CANADIAN WEST By Prof, James B. Hedges This attractive book written by Dr. J. B. Hedges of Brown Univers- ity, Providence, R.I., gives us the first complete account of the part played by the Canadian Pacific Rail- way in the settling and develop- ment of the great Canadian \Vest, Based on an exhaustive study of original documents, it adds a new chapter to the pioneer history of British North America, Without Dr, Hedges' work, perhaps, the story of that adventurous undertaking, the colonization of the West, might have been lost to succeeding gener- ations. The volume, most interestingly written, is divided into thirteen chapters—The Background, the Or- igin of the Land Subsidy, Locating tho Land, Beginnings of Land Pol- icy, Advertising the West, The Land WHERE'S .THE PAN ill, PAIN ?

She sotiht re Fuge from her mother's ecstasy, front Mary's stupidity, from Lydia's and Kitty's boisterousness, on the archery field. As she made her way to the stand of bows and nr• rows, •Darcy greeted her. "Would . you like ,a little target practice?" he asked pleasantly, "Yes," she rennet's somewhat tali - en aback by his friendly maner. "Are you a. good shot with the bow, a1 r. Darcy?" "Tolerable," he answered, "Only toleralblo?" she question- ed mischievously. "Well," he expanded, "it's a flue old sport and one 'in which even a young lady cap impute profit• lent," : "So I've heard," she said grave. ly. "At short range, of course," he added. "And with a Tight bow." He fitted an arrow and took Hint, A Bull's Eye "What, a bud shot!" he said In annoyance as the arrow missed the target and landed in the side of •tire knoll beyond, He handed her the bow, Would you like to try it?" She nodded, an impish smile lighting her face, "Place the bow in the left hand," he Instructed sententiously, "And the arrow goes like this — and these two fingers so, Now — left arm straight, Stand sidewise and aim at the bull's, eye," He paused, taking in the picture of her as she strained to follow his instruc• tions, "That's right," he approv. ed. "Now shoot," • Elizabeth let go the arrow, . It landed 1n the very heart of the target. "A Bull's Eye!" he cried, Without pausing, Elizabeth pick- ed up a second arrow and shot it to split the first •ole, • Darcy stared Incredulously from her to the target, then laughed with delight. "Next time I• talk to a young lady about archery, I 'won't lie so' patronizing," he promised. "Thank you for the lesson," • Elizabeth, disarmed by'his frfeud linos, smiled warmly 'at him: "Thank you for taking It so well. Most amen would have been offend. ed."

" \Veli --may I ask how long you've been practising archery'?" he asked pleasantly, "Since I 'was six," she langhed. "And what else have you been doing since you were six?" "Oil, nothing in particular, Liv- ing. ivIng. Laughing, I laugh a good Ileal, you know." "You Don't Laugh Enough" His glance was frankly admit, Ing. "So I should imagine." "It's none of my business, of course," she smiled, "but I 81101114 say, Mr. Darcy, that you didn't laugh enough," Miss Bingley joined them "Hello," Darcy greeted, "Miss Elizabeth was just saying site thinks I don't laugh enough." Caroline eyed Elizabeth frigidly. "I should be very sorry if you laughed more than you do, Mr. Darcy, There is something so un- refined about excessive laughter." "It you want to be really refin- ed," Elizabeth countered, "you've got to be dead. There's nobody so dignified and distinguished as a munutny, And now, M,r.• Darcy, may I ask you a question? What would bo your opinion of a Tuan who had everything—'birth,.breeding, wealth, charm—and yet who refused to ac- cept an introduction to another matt who was poor and of no cense- gUemce." Darcy flushed. "I would form no opinion until I knew the circum- stances of the particular case," he replied coldly, "And now, if you will excuse me, I shall retrieve the arrows." • Elizabeth watched him go thoughtfully, "Miss Eliza," observed Miss Bing- ley. "May I warn you not to take George Wickham too you. "You know I referred to Mr, \Vickham?" Elizabeth asked in as- tonishment, "You know that Mr. Dar0 refused to meet him?" "Of course, And I know, too, that he goes, about saying Mr, Darcy Inas used hint ill. While I'm Ignor- ant of the particulars, I know what Mr, Wickham says is not true." What A Gentleman? "Indeed!"

No amount of grooming can quite make up for the effect achieved by carrying the head far forward or down so that the chin almost touches the chest, Clothes can't bo as flattering as it is possible for them to be unless shoulders are square, back- bone straight, stomach in and chest high. The first step toward learning to walk beautifully and grace- fully is to do posture exercises until you stand and sit well, says Alicia Hart, beauty columnist, who urges women to get into the habit of standing with the enol of spinal column slightly • up and forward, stomach up and in, chest high, neck straight, Shoulders sliould be back but not exagger- atedly so. When you walk, swing your KS front the hips — not the knees, Try to strike a happy me- dium between very long and short, mincing steps. Weight should be on the balls of the feet. Don't drag your heels or, worse yet, walk on tiptoes, A good carriage 'and grticcful walk are worth striving fol', for they add to health and conse• fluent good spirits, as well as making the new fall costume look as attractive as it was meant to be.

HOOKED RUGS, PETIT POINT Hooked rugs, petit and gros point chair coverings, hangings, patchwork spreads and tablecloths, both embroidered and crocheted, boar witness to unusual skill and patience in wielding hook or needle. Old-fashioned afghans are a feature and even otubroidered towels at'e included in this careful selection of the work of contestants from North Dakota to Connecticut, The highly decorative appearance of most of the pieces suggests that these amateur needleworkors have a greater knowledge of design than is generally supposed, Even when a subject so ' prosaic as a map is selected, as it was by a needlepoint expert who pictured the islands of the Caribbeau, the variation of col- or and textures produces a most attractive result, Again, in a quilt whose patchwork forms a map of the United States, the color harm- ony of pastel yellows, orange and beige gives it distinction and sug- gests its use as a bed covering for a boy's room or a wall hanging for a den. Household Hints Avoid staining your hands when scraping carrots by washing the carrots and then putting them In boiling water for five minutes. Then strain off the hot water and pour on cold.

Place the paper over the cap before turn• lug it, and you will find it opens easily. * * Cream of vegetable soup can be trade extra good if a little real cream (or cream off the top of the milk) is added before serving, Or you can adopt the Spanish trick of stirring grated cheese or cooked rice into the soup.

Prices Of Wool Begin To Rise Show Effects of European War — Shortage and Delay In Filling Orders Price changes as a result of the war are just beginning to be felt here, declares the Stratford Beacon - Herald, Woollen prices particularly are beginning to show the effects of the war, There is a decided shortage of woollens for production and enlistment of many skilled workers in the army has left pro - auction mills short handed. Ono merchant said last week, con- tinues the Beacon -Herald, that ho had received a letter from a firm which once filled orders protn,ptly, advising him that owing to the shortage of skilled labor orders could not be filled immediately. The delay in filling orders is not only caused by shortage of skilled workers. in many plants the gov ernment has found it necessary to commandeer a certain percentage of looms and the output of material for civilian use is necessarily cur- tailed. INCREASE TO PURCHASE Price increases have not been very steep as yet, but people who buy clothing made of ]sigh woollen content will notice that small iterate which once could be purchased for three dollars are now listed at dos. er to $4.50. The increase in price to the retailer is being handed on to the purchaser. The shortage in wool ens was noted shortly after the ou break of war when the British government took over all woollen materials for their own use, Only a limited am- ount of woollens has been ratioa- ed out to manufacturers, Handy Hints Sew through a square of blot:- ting lot;ting paper after you've oiled your machine to collect any sur- plus oil. * • * Moisten your jam -pot covers with vinegar instead of water and they will stick more tightly. * * * Tt y sulphur for rnts—sprinklo the shelves with it and also treat the floor if they have been seen there. * « * Try using lemonade powder in- stead of sugar for a plain cake it sweetens and flavors. • * Cut up your own worn-out towels to slake bibs, razor towels, face cloths and small towels to remove make-up. * • • Stick ;mall rubber stops at each corner of your tray to pro- tect the surface of your polished table from scratches. ant Fes" =WARD " • J.

PRINTED TEXT, Prov. 11: 24-31; Luke 16: 11-13. GOLDEN TEXT—Lay up for your- selves treasures In heaven. Matt. G: 20, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time,—Solomon flourished about 1000 B.C.; the message of our Lord taken from Luke was given in Jan- uary, A.D. 30. Place.—There aro no geographic• al localities mentioned in the chap- ter taken from the book of Prov - orbs; the parable spoken by Jesus was uttered lit Peraoa. There are many things that need not trouble us lu life, many temp- tations that do not touch us, yet no man or woman can escape con- sidering the subject of how to mako money honorably or what to do with money when it is made, for money we must have, no mat• ter how economically we choose to live. Our lesson today has to do with what the Bible teaches con- cerning the use o! this important medium of exchange and power for purchasing what we need. Effect Upon Character What wo do with money has a tremendous influence upon our character and also upon the char- acter of others. Money has in It , the powor either to sanctify or to pollute human life. Mon are bur- dened by money, aro separated from simplicity and polluted in the integrity of their moral judgments. We are here considering in our ex- position of the eleventh chapter of Proverbs only those passages which relate directly to the fundamental - problem of our lesson. Rewards of Liberality Proverbs 11: 24. Thero is that scatteroth, and iucreaseth yet more; And there is that withholdeth more than Is meet, but it tendoth billy to want. 25. The liberal soul shall bo made fat; And he that watereth shall be watered also himself. He is the richest man In the es- teem of the world who has acquir- ed most; ,he is richest in the es- teem of heaven who has given most. Ho who gives his five barley loaves and two small fishes into the hands of Jesus sees the people fed and gets twelve baskets over. Set no limit to your gifts of money, time, energy; 1n the act of giving the whole that you have expended will return to you, and more also, 26. He that wlthholdeth grain, the people shall curse him; but bless- ing shall be upon the head of him that selletb it. In the early stages of commerce there seems no waY of making money rapidly so suro as that of buying up corn in time of death, waiting until the dearth presses heavily, and then selling at famine prices, That sort of thing is going on all over the world to- day. Foolish Trust In Riches 27. He that diligently seekelh good seeketh favor; But he that searcheth after evil, it shall come unto him. 28. He that trusteth iii his riches shall fall; But the right- eous shall flourish as the green leaf. 29. He that troubleth his own house shall Inherit the wind; And the foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart. 30, The fruit of the righteous is a tree of lite; And he that is wise winneth souls. 31. Be- hold, the righteous shall be recom- pensed in the earth; How much more the wicked and the sinner! Compare Ps. 99: 6, 7 and Prov. 10: 22. The man who trusts in his riches is a man who expects that. his riches will give him all that he needs, not only of the material things of life, but peace, and joy in Ills own heart, loved ones, friends, .a great reputation. Such a man Is bound to be disappointed, because wealth in itself will not at all bring these things; neither is It able to make these things permanently abide in a man's life. Stewardship Luke 16: 11, If therefore ye have not been faithful In the unrighl- eous mammon, who will commit It to your trust the true riches? 12. And if ye have not been faithful In that which is another's, who will givo you that which is your own? "Mammon" is a Syrian word for money. The money which men have here is another's, even God's. In comparison with the abiding treas- ures of eternal things, which are the true riches, It is temporal and transient; and a tome is corning when it shall fail: but if the man who has been intrusted with it has been unfaithful, and has approp- fated to himself what really be• longed to God, how can It be ex• 'petted that God will give him ea during spiritual wealth and hap• piness, which shall bo his very own, inalienable possessions? One Master To Serve 13. No servant can serve two masters: for either he will have the one, and love: the other; or else he will hold to one. and de- spise the . other, Ye cannot serve God and Mammon. Mammon here is personified as a deity, devotion to whom is shown in "covetousness" Jack Tar and Gob Fraternize The spirit of friendship and good -will that has characterized the relations between the i iritlsh Empire and the United States here is dramatically typified by the American sailor, one of many who brought some over -age destroyers to Eastern Canadian ports, and the Royal Naval rating who has conic from his own country to help man the ships during their voyage to the United Kingdom. They are shown above on the stern of a U.S. destroyer. which Is idolatry. This is an un- compromising statement. In actual life wo find that millions of so- called Christians are seeking to fol- low this out, but aro holding on to the things of the world at the same time, believing that they are serving God. When a Christian is serving God with the whole heart and mind, he cannot love mammon; and when he is seeking the things of the world, putting money first, he Is not serving God at all, Miniature Pistol Fires Bullets Guelph, Ont., police had a dif- ficult job tossed at them when Edgar H.

POP — Clearing a Trap WI-IAi Dominion Gains In Intellectuals They're Moving Hera. •From Ab r o a d --- Distinguished Thinkers and Authors May Improve Quality of Canadian Literature Speaking before the Canadaln Authors' Association at Saint Anne de Bellevue, Quebec, re- cently, Jean Charles Harvey, .editor of Le Jour, of Montreal, pointed out that the Dominion stood to gain from a literary point of view by welcoming dis- tinguished thinkers and authors who are compelled to flee from Europe. "The geniuses of an old positor, "The geniuses of an old world," he declared, "by migrat- ing to our borders may become so fond of our country, our free- dom, that they may be the ex- pression of our national life. By giving those with eyes to see and minds to understand the chance to benefit by the glories of Can- adian nature, Canadian litera- ture would be stimulated into growth and Canada would pro- duce great writers, painters and musicians." There is much to be said for Mr. Harvey's point of , view. The United States' has. gained tre- mendously by the number of dis- tinguished scientists, philoso- phers, writers and university professors in variousdepart- ments of knowledge who have found, a .domicile in that country. Canada can make no mistake in opening its doors to scholarly men who, because of their inde- pendence of thought, find nr place for their talents in Nazi - dominated countries. There will be a considerable exodus of this type of men from Austria, Cze- cho-Slovakia, Poland, France, and other occupied countries. Since the last war Canada has made very substantial progress in the development of its literature, and every addition should be welcomed. Farm Notes 1 Fall Fertilization Improves Pasture There is no more important crop in Canada than pasture, and in the light of the production of nutritious feed during the past summer months, now is the time to make plans to increase its value. , If the pasture has not given the results expected, asks Paul Gervais, Dominion Experi- mental Station, Lennoxville, P.Q., what is the reason? Is it a question of drainage, acidity, or fertility that is at fault? In the last case, commercial fertilizers if used with judgment, will help correct the situation. Tests have disclosed that it is better to spread fertilizer in early September, rather than in the spring. There are, however, two exceptions to this rule: one when the ground is too steep and second when the fertilizer con- tains nitrogen. In the latter case, the phosphorous and potash may be applied in the fall and the nit- rogen in the following spring. When a pasture is fertilized for the first time, it is well to use the highest amount mentioned. The applications of fertilizer should be repeated every three, four or five years, depending on the fertility of the soil and the needs of the plants. These re- commendations are general and may be modified according to the circumstances. . Pastures deteri- orate not only by poor manage- ment but also for lack of fer- tilizing elements. `Eat Less Meat' Theory Is Wrong Experiments Reported To American Chemical Society Show Lean Meat at Meals In Hot Weather Doesn't Produce Too Much Heat The old advice to eat less meat to keep cool in hot weather was shown to he exactly wrong in ex- periments reported to the Ameri- can Chemical Society meeting re- cently In Detroit, Tho right way, said Dr, E, B, Forbes, director of the Institute of Animal Nutrition at Pennsylvania State College, is .to eat lean meat and• other protein foods as usual, and be careful about consumption of starch, sugar and fat.

In Memoriam POLLARD—Treasured mcmorles cif a clear mother, who died a year ago, September 3oth, Era. The blow was great, the shock severe, We little thought the end was near, ,And only those who have lost can tell, The pain of parting without farewell, The flowers we place upon your grave \lay wither and decay, ,But love for you who sleeps beneath, 1%'iIl never fade away.
