Saving" Ontario's
,' Natural
, Resources
(No, 14)
By G. C. TONER
Ontario Federation of Anglers
TWO VITAL LESSONS
The conservation of Ontario's
natural resources is a vital mat-
ter to the- people of the Pro-
vince but it is as well to remem-
ber that other regions of the
country and the world have even
more pressing problems caused
by depletion, Professor N. ft,
Sears, an.authority one/and eros-
ion, speaking at Philadelphia,
mentioned some of these prob-
lems. Highly developed civili-
zations in all regions of the world
have depleted their resources un-
til in time the civilization itself
disappeared, Floods in China,
deserts in the lands around the
Mediterranean, reversion to jun-
gles of the central villages of
Mexico are in part traceable to
bad management just as our
western Dustbowl was caused by
the rancher, the sod of the short
grass prairie.
GET TOGETHER ON IT
An important point brought
out by Professor Sear's is the
way in which separate small
groups, attacking sectors of the
conservation problem, are now
coming together in a unified ef-
fort to stop depletion and restore
the countryside. Tho anglers
were only concerned with restor-
ing their fishing. Hunters want-
ed more game. Foresters were
protecting the woods and plant-
ing the trees; But each group
has found that the limits of their
work passed overinto other
phases of conservation. The
fishermen new realize that they
cannot protect the fish unless
they stop soil erosion and pollu-
tion; the forester and hunter are
finding that wild life and forests
are linked together.
These two lessons are import-
ant to all naturalists and con-
servationists, We must know the
history of other regions and of
other times so that we can avoid
their mistakes, We must unite
our efforts; the farmer and the
city dweller, the naturalist, the
hunter and the angler, attack-
ing depletion as a' whole and re-
storing the woods, the waters, the
soil and the wildlife, if our civi-
lization is not to vanish as did
Rome and Greece.
Ships built of iron have been
recorded as lasting for nearly

"MIXED FARMING" IN WEST?
"Why are you such improvident
wheat miners," the Lethbridge
Horti'ld says that the Bast asks
in effect of the Western prairie
lhrmers, "and why don't you raise
more stock and why generally don't
you go In more for mixed farm-
ing?" The answer cd the Leth-
bridge paper is that the Alberta
firmer, at any rate, is not merely
not an exclusive whet man but
that he actually, In proportion,
raises far more hogs than Ontario
does. The relevant comparison is
that Alberta, with a population of
300,000, raised 1,371,000 hogs last
year while Ontario, with a popula-
tion of 3,000,000, raised 1,997,000,
The Lethbridge Herald insists that
It is hasty assumption that Alberta
could relieve the present glut of
Canadian wheat by feeding 100
million buehels of wheat to (togs
and raising 6,000,000 bogs. The
tremble is that It would be just as
hard for Canada to market 6,000,000
hogs as it is for Canada to market
500.mtllion,bushels of wheat.

IS THE TIDE TURNING
IN BATTLE OF BRITAIN?
The coming winter will not see
the defeat of Great Britain, Sir
Norman Angell, well-known English
economist, declared in an Inter=
view at Boston last week. The de-
struction caused ley air raids on
Great Britain during the winter, he
felt, would be offset by assistance
from overseas -- from Canada, the
United States, Australia and India.
Brltaln Wine First Round
That the defending forces had
won the first round in the Battle
od Britain was becoming increas-
ingly evident last week. The R. A.
F„ while maintaining .mastery of
the home skies was carrying the
war with steadily mounting
strength to enemy territory; the
Royal Navy controlled the Channel
and continued to enforce a strict
blockade of Axis -held countries
fronting on the North Sea, the At-
lantic and the Mediterranean; the
British people were resisting the
savage attacks of the Luftwaffe
with magnificent spirit;: North Am-
erica was feeding Great Britain
an endless stream of planes, am-
munition and other war material.
Even the Russians admitted that
the British were more than hold-
ing their own. Red Star, official
organ of the Soviet Army, declared
that Germany's . air offensive
against Britain had failed. The
paper said that not only were the
British continuing to defend them-
selvee but were able "effectively"
to carry the battle to Germany.
No Invasion Till Spring?
Vincent S h o e a n, world -tamed
foreign correspondent who wrote
"Personal History," though frank
in an opinion that Great Britain
would have to have more help in
war materials, said that he believed
actual Invasion of England would
not occur until spring and that the
people could withstand the air bar-
rage.
Reports of three separate invas-
ion attempts by the Germans which
had been beaten off by the R.A.F.
appeared in all the newspapers
last week. Featured most promin-
ently was the story of a big at-
tempt on Sept. 16th, the day after ,
Goering flaw over London,
Big Offensive Planned
Talk of a coming "great offens-
ive" by the British was heard last
week from Prime Minister Churc-
hill and three Cabinet Ministers,
(Lord Lloyd, the Colonial Secret-
ary, A, V, Alexander, First Lord
of the Admiralty, Aircraft Produc-
tion Minister Lord Beaverbrook).
This rallied questions In everyone's
mind: Would the offensive come
on land, in the air, or by sea?
Would it involve reconquering the
entire continent of Europe by fight-
ing Hitler and the Nazi war ma-
• chine off the map? Would it watt
uutil France, Belgium, Holland,
Norway, countries full of grave un-
rest and widespread sabotage, turn-
ed against their masters and tried
to throw oft the Nazi yoke? Would
It begin with large-scale military
operations In the Axis rear -- in
the eastern Mediterranean?
Crisis Nears In Mediterranean
Events appeared to be shaping
that way In the Near East last
week, A British diplomatic offense
Ive was suggested by the meeting
in Istanbul of the British Ministers
to Yugoslavia, Turkey and Bulgaria,
considered as a prelude to forming
a now Balkan bloc to stop an Axis
drive southward; the London Times
Urged in an editorial that Britain
seize Greek naval bases and
strengthen her position at the en-
emy's expense; the visit of British
War Secretary Anthony Eden to
the Near East, seen as part of an
attempt to promoto Egypt's Inter-
vention lu the conflict against Italy
and create a Balkan -Arabic bloc
against the Axis, obviously was
worrying Germany and Italy,
Turkey's Attitude Vital
The crux of the Balkan -Medi-
terranean situation lay in the at-
titude of Turkey, and by reversion,
to the attitude of the Soviet diplo-
mats from whom Turkish leaders
appeared to be taking their cue.
Tho trend seemed unmistakably to
be towards stiff resistance by Tur-
key to the demands of Germany
and Italy, With Turkey in the war,
Axis plans in the Mediterranean
could very easily go sour.
Gibraltar and Dakar
But Hitler, as we have all learn-
ed by now, is a master of the feint.
With everyone's attention concen-
trated on the eastern Mediterran-
ean, he could hardly choose a bet-
ter moment in which to make t:
thrust through Spain (a whole Ger-
man division was •reported to be
poised there) to blitzkrieg Gibral-
tar and close the door of the west-
ern Mediterranean with the help
of tho Vichy government, once
Franco was persuaded to re-enter
the war. Thence on to Dakar , , Col-
onel Frank Knox, Secretary of the
U. S. Navy, envisioned such a poe-
albillty when he declared last week
that the fall of Gibraltar would be
of "immeasurable" importance to
the United States it it should re-
sult in a German move down the
west coast of Africa,: to the vicinity
of Dakar, which is only 1,600 miles
from American shores.
Japan Backlhg Down?
The Far Eastern situation ap-
peared to have quieted down some-
what. Several high diplomats in
Tokio, informants said, told their
home governments last week that

Japan's reaction to growing Bri-
tish -American solidarity in the Far
East indicated that the Japanese
felt they had lost the initlatife in
the Pacific,, at least for the time
being, and would' delay any plaus
they might have had for early ac-
tion in tho Netherlands East Indies
and elsewhere in Southeast Asia.
At tho same time, German agents
all over the East were reported
to be working to foment an open
cash between Japan and . Britain
and the United States • , and
the Burma Road, China's lifeline,
just re -opened by Britain, was
bombed repeatedly...
Gandhi's "Last Campaign"
In India, the 72 -year-old wizened
Gandhi, lewder of millions, Inaug-
urated an Indian Nationalist dis-
obedience campaign which he hop-
ed would effect a reconciliation
"not only between Britain and India
but also between the warring na-
tions of the earth," (Reconciliation
between Britain and India to come,
In his eyes, only when the in-
dependence of India is granted).
Describing it as the "last campaign"
ed hia life,. G•andlra stated that he
did not expect it to result in his
arrest, since the imprisonment of
such a popular idol would embarr-
ass the authorities.
Election Race Hot
On this side of the globe, the U.
S. elections retained top position
in the news, The race was getting
hotter, the margin between Roose-
velt and 1Vilkie narrowing hourly,
as the big day was only half -a -week
away. For the first time, this col-
umn considered the election of
Willkie as a possibility worthy of
serious consideration. Was Presi-
dent Roosevelt scared when he
took the stump for the last rounds
of the 1940 political battle?
The contest to the south of us
doubtless drew a great deal more
attention than 1t was worth, The
outcome could not matter very ma-
terially to Canada — nor to Great
Britain, since both candidates were
pledged to give her all aid, short
• of war, Nevertheless the president-
ial race was an exciting thing for
anybody to watch.
Toward the end of the week the
Dominion was becoming more and
more concerned with the business
of Parliament just about ..to con-
vene, prorogue and reconvene, All
parties made rtady to jump into
the debate on the address in reply
to the Throne Speech . , . Defense
Minister Ralston postponed a trip
overseas, War Services Minister
Gardiner hurried back from Britain
for the opening.
Mr, Gardlner's filliug of the post
of Minister of Agriculture, as well
as the war Services Ministry, was
viewed "as unsatisfactory in many
quarters of , the Dominion. Farm
conferences meeting in the west
called for his removal, citing his
failure to do anything in the face
of the drastic wheat situation , , .
When asked if Premier Godbout
of Quebec might be named to suc-
ceed Gardiner, Prime Minister King
smiled last week, and did not com-
mit himself.

How Do: You Cough?
Nature intended the cough as a
means of expelling congestion•.
from the breathing aystein, arid
thore'is Wright and a wrong way,
to co'ugli, - a medical authority
-tells. us. The correct way' is to`
fill the lungs with air, then sud-
denly expel it, The air should bo
drawn through the nose, filling
the stomach and then the chest,
If it is admitted through the
moultt, it is not pre -warmed, and
inay therefore contract the pass-
age and drag the obstruction
deeper into the lungs. To cough
correctly, take a full, deep
breath through the nose and then
cough with great force. That this
method is effective was demon-
strated by a medical man who,
tvith one correct effort, expelled
a pea which had lodged in his
lung,
Some Clouds Are
Nine Miles High
Cirrus, Tiny' Fleecy Clouds,
Float at Average Height of •
30,000 Feet
Until the invention of the aero -
piano few people troubled their
heads about clouds except in so far
as they affeotod the weather. To-
day they hre studied with the ut-
most care, their size, density, and
height, Cirrus, the tiny fleecy
clouds seen only in fine weather
and often known as mare's tails,
float at an average height of 30,-
000 feet, The greatest height .at
which they have ever been measur
-
ed. is 43,800., feet.
THICKEST ONES ARE LQW13IST
Tho middle clouds, called oirro-
cuniulus, move at heights between
10,000. and..23,000 feet, while the
lotyer aud;lheavler clouds aro us-
ually between 3,000 and 7,000 feet.
.The thickest clouds are the groat
cumulus or thunder clouds, which
tusually have a flattish base and
towering, mountain -like summits.
The lower part of such a aloud may
be only 4,000 feet above earth's
surface,' but the top is 16,000 feet,
giving a thickness of about two
and a half miles, Rain cloud hangs
low, its average height above- the
sea being only a couple 'of thous•
and feet, The height at clouds is
molly obtained by moans of photo.
.graphy, two cameras being nosed at
011 00.
New Car Markers
Ready December 1
Production of Ontario motor
markers for 1941 is being slight-
ly delayed due to a shortage of
sheet metal, officials of the pro-
vincial • secretary's department

however' will be ready for issu-
ance about" December 1, or' be-
fore,
Steel mills are giving priority
to war orders, resulting in the
work at the Ontario Reformatory
being delayed, but officials said
there will be sufficiknt material
to complete the markers on time.

better, Cards adorned with
witches, black cats or owls, bear-
ing the words "come :and learn

following verso may also bo'
used: "At our house on Hal•

be seen, and fortunes will be .
tested."
Very often a big kitchen is the
scene of the festivity as here all
the apples and flcur and water
tricks can be played without much
damage to the surroundings. Tic

Since marriage is a girl's only
career In the 1800's, Mrs, Bennet,
mother of five marriageable daugl►.

and Kitty—campaigns like a gen.
eral to capture two rich London
bachelors, Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bing•
ley, for her two elder girls, Jane
and Bingley fall In love at first
sight; but Darcy's pride In his
family and rank, prejudices EIIz•
abeth agalhst him despite the fact
that they are warmly drawn to
each other. Darcy finds Elizabeth's
family Impossible. Her genteel
father Is completely overshadowed
by her vulgar, scheming ,mother,
ad her sisters, outside of Jane.
Mary Is a pretentious bore. Lydia_
and Kitty are unmannerly bolster.
ous, Elizabeth is completely incens•
ed at Darcy's treatment of George
Wickham whom he refuses to meet;
She credits his refusal to the fact
that Wickham is the son of Darcy's
late steward, Darcy, disgusted with
the Bennet family Influences Bing.

broken. Then Darcy realizes that
family or no, he cannot conquer
his honest love for Elizabeth. He
proposes and she refects him with
contempt,
CHAPTER NINE

And then tragedy overtook the
entire Bennet household, •
Lydia, without bothering to stop
for a. marriage license, eloped to
London with George Wickham,
Mrs. Bennet took to her bed,
overwhelmed by the disgrace which

Elizabeth, back from her. visit to
Charlotte, accepted this result with
grlui silence, Since Bingley was lost
to her, Juno hard no interest in hus-
bands, Elizabeth, having flatly re-
fused Darcy's offer to marriage,
, settled her Inilnd to the fact that
' she'd live and die a spinster,
'Through Charlotte's husband,
• Mr. Collins, Darcy heard of the
scandal. His immediate reaction
was to take the first coach to Mery-
ton, and upon arrival, set out at
once for the Bennet home,
Mary rushed to tell Elizabeth
that Darcy was in the parlor wait-
ing to. speak to her,
Darcy rose from his chair as
she entered,
"Mr, Darcy!" she greeted, her
tone sharp with angry defiance.
"May I ask what has brought you
here?"
His Own Sister
' Peel no alarm, Madam," he re-
' plied coldly. "I have no intention
of re -opening. the paluful subject
of marriage, After what you said
the other day, that chapter is de-
fititt,ely closed." He paused, and
his voice, when he again spoke,
was gentle. "Bad news travels fast,
Miss Bennet. A, few hours after you
left the Collins' home I heard about
George Wickham and your sister.
I felt it my duty to come at once."
"To triumph over us, I suppose,"
she answered• bitterly.
"To offer Amy services," he, said
kindly. IHIcr amazed stare gave bite
inontentary pause, "Miss Bennet,"
he continued, "I told you the other
day that, where Wickham was cow
corned, I chose to be' silent,' What
has happened to your 'sister has
made me, change my mind. You
have a right to know the truth
about Wickham, Ono ,must know
the worst In order to be able to
guard against It. Your sister's case
was not the first, Miss Bennef."
Elizabeth paled, "Do you mean
that Wickham has done this be-
fore?" she cried.
1'o my own sister," he said un-
happily,
"Your sister?" Elizabeth's unjust
accusations against 'Darcy in re-
gard to his attitude toward Wick-
ham swept through her. Her acute.
distress that he should now bo
forced to take her Into his con-.
fidence on a, matter so pailful and
personal to hie►, made her speech-
less with grief and regret.
"My sister, Georgians', reds only

referred to as "Ontario's Last Duel,"
Mr. Marshall was born near Perth,

his ancestors have told him snatches
of the story of earlier days. ''We ung

PEOPLE WILL TALK
You may get through the world, but
'twill be very slow,
ft you listen to all that is Bald as you
go;
You'll be worried and fretted and kept
in a stew—
For meddlesome tongues must have
something to do,
And people will talk,
If quiet and modest, you'll have it
persumed
That your humble position is only
assumed—
You're a wolf in sheep's clothing or
else you're a -fool;
But, don't get excited—keep perfectly
cool—
For people will talk.
And then it you 'show the least bold-
ness of heart,
Or a slight inclination to take your
own part,
They will call you an upstart, conceit-
ed and vain; .
But keep straight ahead—don't stop
to explain --
For people will talk.
If threadbare your dress or old-fash-
toned your hat,
Sonne one will surely take notice of
that
And hint very strong
pay your way;
But don't get excited

CURIOSITY AROUSED IN CLINTON
Curiosity was centred in a heaped
up truck load of maple logs that pulled
over to the curb on Huron street,
Clinton, just west of the main inter-
section Friday afternoon. The at-
traction, however, was neither the
truck nor the logs but the carcass of
a wolf lying behind the cab, The load
was from a bush lot north of Lucknow
and was on the way to a Goderich
mill, The animal had been run over
by the 'heavy truck • as it ran out of
the woods and dashed across the roah'
in the path of the heavily loaded ve-
hicle. It was not a pure-bred timber
wolf but one of a smaller variety. I""

JESUS DECLARES HIS MISSION
Luke 4, 5 •
PRINTED TEXT, Luke 4: 16.30.
GOLDEN TEXT.—For the Son of
man came to seek and, to save that
which was lost—Luke 19: 10.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time,—Tho temptation of our
Lord occurred probably in February
A,D. 27, All the subsequent events
recorded in chapters 5 and 6 oc-
curred in the summer or fall of
A,D. 28, The temptation occurred
in the wilderness, not far from the
barren hills rising from the Jordan
River; practically all the other ev-
ents
v•ents of these two chapters occur-
red either generally in Galilee, or
in the two cities oa Nazareth and
Capernaum, both located in Galilee,
Capernaum being at the north end
of the Sea of Galilee.
The temptation of our Lord Is
also, recorded in Matt. 4: 1.11 and
Mark 1: 12, 13, Though other temp-
tations must previously have been
experienced by Christ, at this time
Satan made one supreme attempt
to bring Christ under his control,
on the very threshold of Ms great
public ,ministry. The temptation
followed a great spiritual exper-
ience, a time of precious fellow-
ship with God: it is after such
exalted experiences as these that
temptation often comes in its great-
est power. Temptation in itself is
not sinful; yielding is sinful. The
temptations are three, and we can
see that they are typical of every
human temptation: to yield to the
flesh, to compromise with evil, and
'to avold.the hard work assigned to
us to achieve God's purposes
through us, Over each of these
temptations Christ triumphed,
Jesus' Early Ministry
Luke 4: 16. And he came to Naz-
aroth, where he had been brought
up: and he entered, as his custom
was, Into the synagogue on the sab-
bath day, and stood up to read.
17. And there was delivered unto
him the book of the prophet Isaiah.
And he opened the book, and
found the place where It was writ -
en,
18. The Spirit of the Lord is upon
me, Because he anointed me to
preach good tidings to the poor:
Ho hath sent me to proclaim re-
lease to the captives, And recover-
ing of sight to the blind, To set
at liberty them that aro bruised,
19. 'To proclaim the acceptable
year of the Lord.
The entire passage here is to be
understood Mosslanically, that Is,
as a prophecy that referred direct-
ly and explicitly to the Redeemer
of Israel who was to come. It de-
cla'res five great tasks which the
Messiah was to accomplish when
he came, none of which could fully
take place until he camp, and all
of them revealing his wonderful
love for me, who needed him, and
still need him, so profoundly.
20. And he closed the book, and
gave it back to the attendant, and
sat down: and the eyes of all in
the synagogue were fastened on
him. 21. And he began to say unto
them, Today hath this scripture
been fulfilled in your ears.
The momentous scene was far
above what any in Nazareth real-
ized. The Word himself had read
the ward to them, The Messiah,
with the Spirit upon helm, was pre-
sent in their midst and doing all
that Isaiah in "this sclripturo"
foretold of him,
In The Synoguge
A word here might be said about
the book Jesus read from. The law
was written on a parchment be-
tween two rollers, and was always
left unrolled at the column for the
day's lesson; but the books of the
prophets were on single rollers,
and the right place had to be found
by the reader, Our Lord, turning to
Isa. 61: 1, 2, must have read the
passage 1n Hebrew; and then eith-
er by himself or by an interpreter
it must have been translated to the
congregation in Aramaic or Greek,
since Hebrew at that time was a
dead and learned language.
Prophet In His Own Country
22. And all baro him witness, and
wondered at the words of grace
which proceeded out of his mouth:
and they said, Is not this Joseph's
son?
23. And he said unto them, Doubt-
less ye will say unto me this par-
able, Physician, heal thyself: what-
soever we have heard done at Cap-
ernaum, do also here in thine own
oountry.
24. And he said, Verily I say unto
you, No prophet Is acceptable in
his own country.
25. But of a truth I say unto you.
There were many widows in Israel
in- the days ot Elijah, when the
heaven was shut up three years
and six months, when there came
a great feminine over all the land;
26. And unto none at them was
Elijah sent, but only to Zarephath,
in the land od Sidon, unto a wo-
man that was a widow. 27. And
there were many lepers in Israel
in the time ot Elisha the prophet:
and none of them was cleansed,
but only Naaman the Syrian. 28.
And they were alt filled with wrath
In the synagogue, as they heard
these Maga; 29. And they rose up,
and east him forth out of the city,

and led him unto the brow of the
hill whereon their city was built,
that they plight throw him down
headlong. 30. But he passing
through the midst of them went his
way. By these Illustrations from
the Old Testament Jesus declared
to the congregation that the bene-
fits and blessings of the divine
kingdom were come in answer to
faith, and not in answer to racial
relationship. Then they were filled
with wrath, and excluded him
from the city. They took him to the
brow of the hill to cast him head-
long. Hostility thus broke out there
at the beginning; but hostility has
absolutely no power, and he, pass•
Ing through the midst of them,
went his way.
Luke is fond of recording the
eagerness of the people to come to
Christ (5: 1, 19; 6: 19; 8; 19, 40;
12: 1; 21: 38). And there 1s no

Farm Notes . . .
Need for Lime
On Many. Soils,
(By 0, R. Snyder, Soil 'Chemist)'
Profitable production of milk, the
derivatives of which form Canada's
most favored war time agricultural
exports, depends vory largely on an
abundance of high quality home-
grown protein feed, such as is pro-
duced by geed crops of clover and
alfalfa,
Apply Fine Limestone
Tests indicate thirst the soil of
fields whore these crops thrive beat
is high in lime; likewise, that many
failures of, these crops are due to
strongly acid soil conditions, re-
sulting from a deficiency of this
mineral substance, Crops take con-
aidorablo limo from the soil, but
very heavy losses are duo also to
run -oft and leaching during seasons
of heavy rainfall.
After -Harvest Fertilizing
Finely ground limestone is the
most economical liming material
for general application on the
farm,
Now, after the crops have been
harvested, and before or during
atter-harvest cultivation is the most
suitable time to apply limestone,
Thoroughly mixed with tho soil, it
acts more rapidly than it does it
left on the surface, Generally, suf-
ficient limestone should be added
to bring the soil reaction up to
pH G.G. Potatoes, however, may
scab badly when the soil is so
close to neutral. A pH of 5.8 or low-
er is better for this crop, and the
limestone, it used, should bo very
finely ground, On permanent pas-
ture lands, it seldom pays to limo
soils. which have a reaction of ovor
pH 6,0. The approximate amount re.
quired per here can bo determined
quickly by a soil test,
Light -Honey Crop
A preliminary estimate places
the probable production of light -
honey in Canada for 1940 at 20
per cent lower than the crop of
1939. Decreases in production are
evident in four of the main pro-
ducing provinces, Quebec, On-
tario, and Alberta, In Saskat-
chewan, the average production
per hive was lower than in 1939
but this was offset by an increase
in the n tuber of producing col-
onies, with the result that the
total crop is likely to be slightly
higher than in the previous year.
The British Columbia crop is ex-
pected to be about 18 per cent
larger than in 1939. Similarly,
in the Maritime Provinces, pro-
duction is reported to be higher
than in 1939, particularly in New
Brunswick and Prince Edward
Island where the crop is practi-
cally double that of 1939.
