We found him in a quandary, which is a tough spot to be in unless you are equipped with a map or compass, or else have a.seeingeye dog. * 1 * (Which reminds us that the an- nual campaign for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind is about due, and 1f there Is any or- ganization which better deserves your support, we personally have never run woes it.) 1 e But to get back to this friend of ours. \Vhen we asked him just what was biting him, he replied that he couldn't decide just what to do in regard to the Maple Leaf hockey team. "If that was the real Maple Leafs we Just saw flatten the Detroit'," he said, "I am think- ing seriously of consulting my lawyer, and I will ask him If I cannot sue the club for the return of all the money I spent on tickets throughout the regular season on the ground of false pretences." « 1 * We tried to soothe his injured feelings as best we cound, telling him that maybe it was the real, blown -in -the -bottle Maple Leafs he had watched trying to untrack themselves during the months of October, November, January, Feb- ruary and March. "They wore the same uniforms," we said, "and they hooked very much the same when posing for their pictures," 1 1 « "Then in that case," he made answer, "I feel ft Is my bounden duty to go and report them to the stewards and demand a saliva test for every one connected with the outfit, with the exception, maybe, of Foster Hewitt and Wes Mc- Knight, who gave their best at all mea and didn't spare a tonsil," So we left him still wondering Which course to take. « « * The International League sea- son is just about to start as we write this and there is a long and dusty road to travel ere the pen- itent race is decided. But If the Toronto Baseball Club keeps up its present gait, we have no hesitation In predicting that ball fans of the wince City and surrounding ter - • tory will have something more to draw them to the stadium than the prospect of watching a lot of noisy Lure-thingers parked back of third WES McKNIGHT lC base trying to chisel one another out of a few small bets, e * « For one thing, the club has made a real clean-up and paint -up job of the ball park. And we .may in- form you that it wasn't before it was time by any manner of means, In fact, they say that in their clean- up operations the workmen came across almost everything that has been missing around Toronto for ages, excepting the body of Am- brose Small. e 1 * Anyway, it promises to be a baseball layout with considerable class, and one to which a man need not be ashamed to take his Fife, or lady friend—or both, for that matter, although maybe not both at the same time, e * * I 'Then there is the matter of the dope book which the ball club has put out for the information of radio announcers, sports writers and similar trash, It is one of the most complete and well -gotten - up affairs of its kind we have ever seen, and a real credit to whoever compiled It. It -and the refurbish- ing of the -stadium—have convinced us that the Toronto Baseball Club really means business, and intends to give the fans something more than promises of "Metter things next summer," * * * Looking over the volume in question, we couldn't help marvel- ing at how many different cities had been represented—or misrepre- sented—in the loop since Toronto first became part of it 'way back in 1884—also the different names the league itself had gone under. * « * First of all, it was the Eastern League, After that, for one sea- son, the New York State League. 'Then the International League, the International Association, the Eastern Association, the Eastern League, again the International League, the New International League, and lastly—so far—the International League. For chang- ing names, it could give Babs Hutton a real run for her money, and no fooling, « « * As for the cities taking part— well, to put it briefly, there were no less than 42 of them, all told —and if you think they are going to be all told in detail in this space, you are mistaken, But a hasty glance reveals such teams taking part as the Philadelphia Athletics, Hamilton, Ontario; Ottawa, Sag- inaw, Bay City, Wilkes-Barre, Le- banon, Long Island City, and a whole lot more that we had long forgotten were ever in there. * « « However, this will suffice regard- ing the Toronto ball team and the International League for the time being, but we hope to have more worth reporting at a later date. As a one-time resident of Toronto, and a long sojourner in Its vicinity, we would hate to have outsiders get the idea that hockey and form - (hart reading cover the full extent of its athletic addictions. While engineers of the New York Power and Light Corp. pondered plans for a hydro -electric dam on the Cacandaga River, beavers moved in, built one 126 feet wide and 6 feet high, and flooded 15 acres. Confident it can be done, the engineers are completing their plans. WIIATGOES ON IN THE WOILD PALESTINE If, as, and when Israel is admitted to the United Nations, 59 fiags'wiU fly from 59 flagpoles at the entrance to the U,N.'s General' Assembly auditorium in New York. But it seems quite possible, at this writing, that one of those flagpoles will be • bare during the current session, The obstacle, of course, is the vexed question of Jerusalem. Lying in the central region of Palestine, the heart of Jerusalem, is the "old city," a one -mile -square area enclosed by ancient walls,, There stand most of the holy places of Jerusalem — places sacred to Christian, Jew and Moslem, Nor- mally the population of the Old City is around 27,500, including 2,500 Jews, Outside those walls is New Jeru- salem, with a population of around 103,000 Jews and 105,000 Arabs, The United Nations, in its original plan of partition, proposed to es- tablish Jerusalem and its environs as an international area of some 280 square miles. The objective was to assure free access to the holy places of the city for any and all religious groups. During the war of partition about a year ago, the armies of Israel and of Trans-Jordan divided Jerusalem, Israel occupied the western sector, the modern business and residential quarters where most of the Jews lived. King Abdullah's Trans-Jor- dan Legion occupied the eastern sector, including the Old City. In the armistice of April 3, 1949, both sides recognized the other's hold- ings in Jerusalem for the present. 'I'lhe Israeli Government has said that it will not relinquish its part of Jerusalem, nor the corridor lead- ing from there to Tel Aviv—and it has also proposed that the Old City be internationalized. Actually, how- ever, Israel has indicated that she is not interested in the status of the Old City so long as she retains her part of Jerusalem. Trans-Jordan has shown equal determination to keep its section of Jerusalem as long as Israel retains its sector, King Abdullah has made it clear that he will not consent to internationalization of the Old City unless all Jerusalem is placed under international administration. In the United Nations debate over Israel's application for U.N, membership, the future of the holy places was a central theme. One group argued for immediate ap- proval of the application; another wanted it ref erred to a committee for further study, The latter stand was suported by an encyclical of Pope Pius in which he urged "internationalization of Jerusalem and all other sacred places." Britain is generally sym- pathetic with the Arabs' position; and the Scandinavian states are dis- turbed over Israel's failure to find and punish the murderers of the U.N. mediator, Count Folke Berna- dotte. So it looks, at this moment, very much as though Israel will remain outside the United Nations, official- ly, for a while yet. RUSSIA For centuries there has been great speculation, from time to time, as to whether there is still anything of Noah's Ark remaining, According to the Book of Genesis, the Ark — a triple -decked vessel some 450 feet in length — "rested in the seventh month, on the seven- teenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat." These mountains are, at present, in Turkish territory, overlooking boundaries with Iran and Soviet Russia. Not long ago three West- ern archaeologists announced that they had the Turkish Government's permission to go and take a look for the Ark. One of the men is Egerton Sykes, a member of the British Geological Society and for- mer British commercial attache at Warsaw. Another is Hans Roozen, a Dutch student; while the third 1s Dr, E. A. Smith, of North Carolina, They have been trying to raise money for the expedition and hope 'to start for Turkey early this summer, But the Russians see in the pro- posal nothing more than a spy plot concocted by Anglo-American in- telligence agents. Pravda, the Com- munist party paper, said, "It is quite enough to look at a map to understand the meaning of the Anglo-American imperialists.

In London Mr. Sykes stated that the spy story was ridiculous, In North Carolina Dr. Smith said, "We are not going to change our plans." And there, for the time being, the matter rests, CZECHOSLOVAKIA Quite a number of western diplo- mats and employees of foreign mis- sions to Czechoslovakia have been "invited" to leave that country dur- ing the past year, on what appear to be very flimsy charges of "spy- ing," One case, which may have serious consequences, is that of Captain Philip Wildash, a British represent- ative in the Allied Military Permit Office, which sanctions visits to and across the three western zones of Germany. He was expelled from Czechoslovakia last March, but the matter_is by no means,,closed as yet, The British Embassy held that the attitude of the Czech police showed clearly that \Vildash's guilt had been prejudged and sent a let- ter of protest to the Czechoslovak Foreign Ministry. The reply reject- ed the British protest and asserted that the Government had acted within its rights and in strict ac- cord with diplomatic usage. How far the three western Gov- ernments are prepared to go in pressing the Czech Government for guarantees that incidents like that of Wildash will not occur again Is a matter for speculation. If they decide to go all out in support of the fundamental liberties involved, there may be grave trouble stirred up, not only in Czechoslovakia but throughout other "satellite" coun- tries. Probably the whole thing de- pends on just how the big boys behind the walls of the Kremlin feel about it: although, of course, nothing like that can be said in any way officially. TIP TO GARDENERS Plants can 'fool the best of us. So often a stray seedling is saved as being a choice plant, only to turn out to be a weed. Stray tree seedlings are the worst offenders, coming up among our shrubs or along the foundation of the house, where we forget then until they are so big we have to ruin sotne good plant or shrub to get them out. Watch out for seedling trees coming up in the middle of a choice lilac or Japanese snowball.

They'll mature earlier; the vices be sturdier; the root systems 10% bigger at transplanting time; end at harvest -time the tomatoes :will be big, solidly -fleshed, with few seeds. * • As for the yield—that from the milk -fed plants will be about double. In fact the milk appears to act very much the sante as some of the new Lrowth-stimulating hormones we ear so hutch about. * * • In charge of the Montana experi• ments was lir. Leon Johnson, Ile dissolved powdered milk in water till it formed a soupy mixture and poured about one-third of an ounce around each new pinut the first week it was up. Then he increased the amount one third of an ounce each week for five weeks. Ile also used buttermilk and skim milk in the same manner. « • As for the actual results—plants fhat hadn't been given extra plant ood of any sort produced at the rate of 6,829 pounds of tomatoes per acre; those receiving skint milk *lone yielded at the rate of 9,814 pounds; while plants receiving both skim ntillc and ammoniated phos- phate averaged 12,374 pounds. �. * • One pound of powdered milk fertilizes 100 young plants in pots, and will take rare of even more if thgrown in flats. Johnson believes at milk -feeding tomatoes will prove practical for both home gar- • deners and commercial growers. And after the milk had made such a startling showing on tomatoes,, Johnson tried it on young onions --and with similar results! * * • • Which will be enough about milk for the time being—now something about the milk producers—the cows, The Dominion Experimental Farms have just issued information about the value of dehorning, some of which I'm going to pass along to you, in hopes it will be found of value. * * • Nature gave horns to the wild COW for her protection. Today they're of not practical value, and fully developed horns may cause serious injury to udders, while pain• ful body wounds often result front hooking and fighting among cattle. « • • Calves may be dehorned cheaply, safely and effectively anytime until they are ten days old, or as soon as the horn button appears, Caustic potash, which you can get in stick form at any drugstore, or com- mercial "horn stoppers" may be used. If applied correctly both treatments give excellent results, « * * The dehorning is quite simple, The calf should be thrown, or tied securely, not only to make your work easier but also so that the dehorning material can be applied only to the horns, The horn but- tons should be clipped bare to stake them easy to locate. (With the • caustic treatment, the stick should be held in dry paper to pre- vent getting your fingers burned.), * * * The horn button is then rubbed with the moistened end of the stick over an area the size of a 25 cent pieces. The skin will redden and the horn button will becotne bare, A ring of vaseline around the base of the button will prevent any ex• cess moisture frotn the treated area leaking over and burning the calf's eyes or face. Other calves must not be allowed to lick the treated area as the caustic will burn skin tissue badly, What Goes On In Canada During May A number of important exhibitions, celebrations and con- ventions are scheduled throughout Canada during the mouth of May, according to a survey released here by A.

Every good hog man knows that it is impossible to nail downs all the causes for such losses. But there is a growing belief in the minds of many expert veterinarians and research men that undue c h i l l i n g during the first twelve hours after farrowing is one of the most common and important factors involved .. • • Stich chilling not only upsets the vital balance of blood sugars, but also lowers the pig's resistance to any disease — encouraging the growth of any bacteria that may be lurking about looking for a spot on which to pounce. « • • in their wild state, sows farrowed their pigs during the warmth of Spring sunshine, and on a bed of clean leaves. An efficient farmer should try, as best he can, to dup- licate such natural environment by providing artificial heat when neces- sary, and strictly sanitary farrowing pens, B. C. Wool On The Hoof Acres of Canadian Wool On The Hoof—Studding the rolling landscape of the 6000 -ft -high alpine pastures of British Col- umbia, thousands of sheep of the I=Taytward Ranch near Kam- loops, B.C,, are being fattened and sheared on their 1800 -acre spring range, The lambs are destined to provide next fall's lamb chops, and their wool may become the yarn for that new suit for Easter, 1950. From this spring range, the sheep will be moved to a summer pasture 150 miles away. Some Facts About Elephants An elephant's skin tneasures from one-eighth of an inch to two inches in thickness. It takes a year to tan an elephant skin. Yet an ordin- ary fly can draw blood. The average life span of an ele- phant is 50 years, and its average weight three tons. Elephants suffer from pneumonia, colds, consumption, tumors, flat feet and corns, When they become ill, their trainers take care of them exactly as If they were humans. if they have a cough, a steel instru- ment holds their mouths open while the trainers put giant pills down the animals' throats. Elephants cannot stand cold. In chilly climates they wear special blankets that cover their ears, trunks and tails, Elephants have to be taught to like peanuts after they come to civilized countries. They eat no peanuts in their native jungles.

During an impor- tant trial at Liverpool, the judge demanded angrily, "Are you trying to teach me law, Sir?" Birkenhead replied sweetly, "I never attempt the impossible, m'lud."

TSA Outstanding Quality • Delicious Flavour WEST OF THE SUN A Serial Story by JOSEPH LEWIS CHADWCK CHAPTER I (Continued From Last Week) "May be so," replied McTavish. for towing us just a couple of miles. I think it's scandalous." "But I'm making sure they earn every penny-i've put the brakes on." In the seconds it took hint to cross to her, her mind leapt back three years -to a dance at Alex- andria. To the week that followed, when she had dined and ridden and sailed with this man; to a week that had been ecstasy; to a week when she had been 17 and hopelessly in- fatuated with a man to whom love was like soldiering - a series of campaigns. A week only. At its end he had turned to his next cancpaign. And she had instantly hated hint as deeply as she had loved him. The next time they had met, impetuous and bitter with her sense of injury, she had quarreled with him, He had laughed at her, and called her a child. She had sent him away, telling him never to speak to her again. He had obeyed. She had not seen him again -until now. « * He was even more dashingly handsome. He was bronzed and lean and strong looking. But three years seemed to have aged hint. Hie lips had turned firmer, his eyes grown strange with an old -young look, as if they had seen too much of life's hardness. He was smiling at her now, his smile still charm- ing. IIe meant to talk, of course. And recall the past. But, no - "hiss Virginia Ames?" She drew a calmer breath. He wasn't going to recall the past, "Yes," coldly, "I am Miss Ames." "I am Lt, James Randall," he said crisply, "I am investigating last night's stage holdup, I under- stand you were a passenger." "Yes, I was." "Do you mind If I ask some ques- tions? It will take but five min• uses." "Very well, This peaceful farm scene wilt please the whole family!

ISSUE 18 - 1049 He stood before her, one hand holding his campaign hat, the other resting on his saber hilt. The cav- alry's yellow stripes running his breeches from boot -top to belt made his kgs appear very long. He looked so touch at ease it annoyed her. Virginia's own tension was terrific and increasing. "First, Miss Arnes, did you have anything taken?" "Only a cameo pin. It was not of great value." "You were the only passenger robbed:" "i think so -yes." "The bandits were more con- cerned with a money box the stage carried?" She said indifferently, "Yes." He nodded. "Could you describe the bandits?" ♦ ♦ v She had difficulty keeping her voice steady; her hatred and con- tempt for him seemed to come up into her throat. "Two of them, perhaps, The one -the leader -was masked." With few words she described the holdup then. Jinc Randall regarded her thought- fully. "The other passengers told me there was a letter involved. You dropped it, and one of the bandits picked it up. The leader made him return it." "There was a letter," Virginia said, breathless now. "It was - valueless except to myself." "Olt, something personal ..." His voice was infuriatingly ,natter of fact. Ile was carrying this stranger business too far, making a farce of it. Virginia's lips thinned in anger.. She hated his smug conceit. She wondered suddenly how many girls he had -laughed at. Then he was saying, "I under- stand you are traveling to Santa Bonita. have you arranged trans- portation:" She gave him a long cold look, "I have. I have hired a carriage and driver. I ant starting today." 1 ♦ t His eyes were a smoke blue; they were suddenly less mocking. He said, "Do you mind my asking if you have people there, Miss Ames?" She gave him a bright smile, She relished this; he had lost his post - campaign skirmish. He had left his flank unguarded. "I have my fiance there," she said deliberately. "Olt, your fianc6." Ile took it without a change of expression. He had no heart; he'd allow her no tiny victory, Then he was smiling. "Congratulations, Miss Ames, Per- haps I know the -fortunate man." She held her head high. "Hie name is Philip Lawrence." She caught a glimmer of expres- sion in the smoke blue of his eyes. "Philip Lawrence," he sampled the name. "No, I do not know hint. His name is, however, familiar." (Continued Next Week) CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS 4. Always 1. Nock eovereap 5. Plant e. Tablet I. flood -looking 1. iindermtae 1. Manner' 11 Over 4. /tuts bug 11.

She is middle-aged, yet acts worse than her young grand- children! "She has no consideration for others. She goes her way with- out telling any- one of her plans, This is especially bad, since she lives several miles from town and has to de- pend on her husband or son to take her back and forth. many a time they've waited for hours on end for her return, ''And it's never her fault( She throws tantrums, and twists facts around to snake the other fellow the offender.

Nearer and nearer she came, her beautiful brown eyes fixed be- seechingly on the settler.

For weeks Partner has been worrying about a cow that he was sure would have trouble In calving, And then one morning he went to the barn— and there was the cow with her calf, and everything abso- lutely normal. And was I relieved! Not only about the cow but because Partner was relieved from further worry, Later that sante morning I went down to see our barnyard family — and upon my word you couldn't move for calves, There were calves everywhere — some having their breakfast, others already finished and taking their "daily dozen" by chasing around the stable. Some were still tied up and a couple were running loose in a pen. "For heaven's sake— how many calves have you got around here?" I asked Partner, "Darned if I know -- I've lost track of thein," he an- swered, So I went around and counted them • . . there were nine, even though we had already sent four out. I suppose the reason is that we had eight heifers all pretty much of an age last summer. Evi- dently t)tey realized their main function in life was to produce — so they did just that. But definitely, A year or two ago one of my readers said: "I don't believe a week goes by but what you talk about your chickens," I hadn't realized It but no doubt she was right. Now the chances are some- one will say that never a week goes by without my saying something about calves. And that, too, is true. But then this column is a chronicle of the doings at Ginger Farm — and right now calves seem to hold the spotlight. But enough of calves. . To- day I had one of those unwelcome things that come to all of ns whether we want them or not — I mean a birthday. But even a birth- day has its compensations. It Is lice to have letters, cards and phone tills as if a few people, here and there, get the notion they are glad you happen to be alive. And I have special fondness for birthday cards — they are such nice, personal things. Daughter, for instance, has an uncanny habit of picking out cards singularly appropriate to Answer to Crossword Puzzle if 480 V 4 3 s 0 TRUST FARinMAT E x/ T GYVE Pi LUG.ASEZjAD RETS® SRE®HE /9TF C 5"Iltai 8 / N E • N6 D S U CAT n► U CC _:3 7✓!% Y E ✓i L' the person and the occasion. My card this year featured a cocker spaniel tethered to'a bone stuck in the ground. As if one cocker spaniel by the mune of Honey wasn't 'nought This card was one of the folder type with a picture and a bit of verse running on each page. The doleful expression on the pup's face was really clever, The verse, put altogether, ran like this — A BIRTHDAY MESSAGE ACROSS THE MILES. Can't cotne to see you, can't hear your voice, Too broke to call you; ain't got much choice. Can't do a durned thing— "ceptin' just set — And hope that this birthday's your nicest one yeti Daughter underlined "too broke to call you" which I took as a gentle hint that I needn't be expecting a long-distance call, Another very nice card was from a very special friend—and 1 knew it had been chosen for the lovely verse that was in it. Little things like that are heart-warming and so very welcome — even if one's birth- day isn't. How nice it is to have friends, You know, I often think the best thing about this poor old world Is the people in it. So why worry about a birthday — a year, more or less, what docs it matter? We are never really old until we think we are, And we never need to think we're old as long as we can take an interest in what goes on around us, One day I told an oldish person, on her birthday, that I hoped she would have many more happy birth- days. She answered — "Well, 1 don't know — I'm not sure that I want many more birthdays." What an unhappy attitude towards life. And yet It is understandable with some older folks. The accent these days is on youth. Young people must be provided with op- portunity for education, recreation, and a business or profession. The only opportunity denied them is a chance to stand on their own feet and prove that they have what It takes to make their own way in the world. Old people are not given enough consideration. Surely our whole social structure would be greatly Improved if more thought were given to the problem of those, still Independent in spirit but un- able to fend for themselves. We mustn't have our old folk hoping they will not have many more birth- days. Old people should be accepted as the responsibility of the young Unfortunately this responsibility is not always realized and accepted.

It is then that you stand on a hillside and look across the wooded valley and see the scarlet and orange of maple blossoms like a touch of pastel crayon across the tree -tops. You see greenish yellow in the tops of the wineglass elms, and the amber green fountain that is the big weeping willow beside the brook. '!'hese generalities, so to speak, you see at a glance; and you know the breathless moment is here. Then you look at particulars. The crab apple trees in the orchard.are dressed in green lace, their leaves no larger than your little fingernail, The lilacs are all tufted at their stent ends, each leaf cluster tipped with a faint brownish purple and not a leaf among them as big as a squirrel's,_.:eir, The wild black- berries have scarlet tassels not half an inch longi4each tassel an unfold- ing group of leat'es whose forret can already he faintly seen. The late apple trees have gray silver nubs at their•twig tips; draw down a branch and look closely and you see each nub as a young leaf cluster emerg- ing from its hud, each leaf the size of a ladybug's wing and each red - tipped as though blushing. The privet has a leaf tuft like a nminia- ture green magnolia, and the bridal wreath bush is green at every joint with little green rosebud leaves. These things you see now, this instant. An hour from now alt will be changed; tomorrow it will be still different, For this is the trembling moment when life stands between bud and leaf, between promise and achievement.
