"Don't plant weed seeds in 1950,"
is the timely advice handed out by
an agricultural expert, who goes on
to say that the use of good seed is
all-important in the matter of weed
control. And really modern farm -
ere don't need to be told that few
farm operations will pay bigger
dividends than a thorough job of
cleaning and treating small graph
seed,
* * *
If a small fanning mill and home-
made seed grain treater are avail-
able, cleaning and treating can be
done at home. A couple of short
trial runs with the fanning mill will
give you an idea of the proper seed
and a uniform rate of speed helps
you to get best results. Don't over-
look using proper sieves and speed,
* * *
There are certain advantages to
home cleaning and treating - also
certain disadvantages.
*
For one thing, home cleaning can
be done at your convenience, and
requires little or no cash outlay;
and there is no danger of mixing
varieties if you clean the will
thoroughly following each run.
Also, if the acreage to be planted
isn't too large, the job can often
be done more quickly at home.
* * *
On the other hand, proper clean-
ing and treating demands good
equipment aiid is more or less a
technical job, Many seed houses
and elevators have the skill and the
machinery to do it better than most
folks can at home. However, there
is usually, a last-minute rash, and
it's best to be a bit early than have
to wait when the ground is ready
for seeding.
* * *
Main reason for cleaning seed
grains, of course, is to get rid of
weed seeds. Most grain, as it
comes from the thresher or com-
bine, would probably be illegal for
commercial sale, as it contains too
big a percentage of weed seeds,
* * *
A number of tests showed that
oats which contained over 10 per
cont. "f impurities to begin with had
just over one per cent, after a single
trip through a fanning mill. The
biggest portion of what was re-
moved consisted of seeds of lamb's
quarter, foxtail, wild rose, smart -
weed, barnyard grass, marsh cres
end the like,
• * *
Tests on flax indicate that one
cleaning can cut the weed seed
content from 10 to 14 per cent,
down to one or two per rent,
* * *
Another reason for cleaning seed
is to remove sticks, chaff, diseased
and underweight kernels. This
mesas that you get more uniform
seeding, stronger stands and, nat-
urally, fewer weeds and bigger
yields.
* * *
Just a word of warning about
the screenings might not be amiss,
Burn them! Don't feed them • un-
less very finely ground; and, as feed,
they aren't worth that bottler. If
you feed the seeds without grind-
ing, many weed seeds are bound to
pass through the animals intact,
then get hauled out to the fields
with the manure to bother you
again,

under hens - an expensive proposi-
tion, since a hen or goose is out of
production for the five weeks of
incubation and for several weeks
afterward. And broody birds often
aren't 'much for laying either,
* * *
Ln the past, artificial in :ubation
of goose eggs didn't seem to work
so well. But now, k seems, an
incubator will work as well for
geese as chickens. One man has
been operating goose incubators
successfully for several years, get
ting hatches of 68 per .:ent., or
better.
* * *
Geese are good eating and, even
more important, they're easy to
raise. Even the usual custom of
fairly late hatching will produce
well -matured geese by fall, so that
they fit well into the holiday season.
* * *
Goslings are hardy, and can be
brooder -weaned in two or three
weeks. They are easily confined by
a ogle-footboard fence and are
fine users of forage crops. They
can live entirely on pasture, 1f nec-
essary, and are quickly fattened on
grain plus pasture or hay,
* * *
In places where modern hatching
methods have been followed by up •
to -date feeding ideas, there have
been startling results, Some.. raie-
ers of medium -type Toulouse geese
report birds weighing as high as
20 pounds at five months.
* * *
A man named George. Rollins
taises some each of three different
breeds -African, Chinese and Tou-
louse; and he's been able to get
early maturity and even some fall
egg production from spring -
hatched goslings. In the past, you
seldom heard of eggs being laid

until geese were tight months or
so of age. Rollins has got eggs
from spring -hatched birds as young
as five months old.
* * *
Which will have to be all for
now, except that maybe 1'uu'l1 get
a laugh out of the one I ran across
about the Sunday school teacher
who was telling her class .,ll about
the heavenly rewards and the gold-
en crowns that good people will
get, "Tell me," she salt, at the
end of the lesson, "just who will
get the biggest golden crown;"
There was silence for a while until
young Johnny piped up with, "I
guess it will be the guy with the
biggest head,"

This is the time of year when
millions of boys troop out to the
corner -lot baseball diamonds and
start sharpening the batting eye
and limbering the throwing arm, re-
turning home in the cveu:ng con-
siderably subdued, with a fine
assortment of Charley -horses, slide
burns 811d stud sufficient to. make
millions 1 of
mothers wonder, once
again, just how one small tad can
pick up such a vast portion of the
earth's surface in so short a space
of time,
* * *
Or, to put it a bit more tersely,
spring has camel
* * *
Pratically all those kids have
visions of some day becoming big
league stars (99 and 44-100ths per
cent. pitching aces) so a little ad-
vice from a gentleman who won
National League pennants with St,
Louis, Pittsburg and Cincinnati
might not only be timely, but help
nu little in filling up a column.•
* *' *
The aforesaid gent is none other
than Bill McKechnie. The "Dea-
con" is at present more interested
in grapefruit, ortillges and vege-
tables than runs, hits and errors,
being part owner of a marketing
concern down Florida way; but
when the baseball bug bites you, it
really takes hold, and the chances
are that Mr, McK, will be back in
what is sometimes alluded to -al-
though not in the presence of Conn
Smythe -as the "World's Greatest
Game" before too long,
* * *
Asked about his past successes
whh young pitchers, McKechnie
said, "If a boy has a good grin, he
can be taught to pitch; and I have
always stressed the importance of
control. 'Practice control of your
fast ball and, curve,' I tell them.
Forget about such things as the
knuckler and screwball. Those trick
pitches take something away from
your fast ball, There's plenty of
time to get tricky later on, when
you begin to lose the fast one and
when you have somebody to teach
you the tricky stuff."
* * *
The Deacon went on to say that
he'd always looked for certain
things in a young ball player. He
liked them to run fast and throw
hard -and didn't care how hard he
Mt the ball so long as he had a nat-
ural swing. With that, and co-
ordination, he can be taught to hit.
* * *
"Practice what you can't do as
well as what you can. Don't al -

nays be showing your strength and
hiding your weakness. If a boy has
enough determination, he ran make
himself a great ball player. Look
a, Joe Cronin, He did it,"
* * *
McKechnie doesn't think that
night baseball is ruining the game,
"Ilut I will say this," he stated,
"night ball is eliminating the 15 -
year player, especially if they con-
tinue to play these night double-
headers and also afternoon games
following night ones, The hustling
ball playcr simply cannot take it -
and boys Who hustle can't save
themselves by letting up, Once a
hustler, always a hustler; it's some-
thing that's born in you."
* *
But even if night ball shortens
the playing career of the average
player, the outlook isn't too gloomy.
"He'll make b'gger money in eight
or 10 years than fellows used to
earn in 15 or more." (He didn't say
that guys like Jackie Robinson and
Campanella could probably earn as
much in one year with a club like
the Yankees as they're gel ting in
five from Brooklyn, but that is
neither here nor there in upper
baseball circles).
* * *
.\1cKeclinic is of the opinion that
morale is a much over -rated factor
in winning baseball, "Managers are'
too often blasted for the failure of
certain players, If a playcr doesn't
produce, he must be lacking some-
where, Either he lacks the ability,
or he lacks the determination to
acquire that ability, Players play
for themselves, They don't go all
out for the manager or club owners.
They go all out for themselves and
their families,"
* * *
(The Deacon didn't say so, but
he's probably hoping that -should
he • conte back in a managerial
capacity some time -the fans will
remember those pregnant words,
the players, not the manager, are
to blame when a team loses.)
* * *
But -following a sound ,Biblical
precept; we've kept the best for
the last, "I'nl forgetting, one of the
most important factors," stated Mr,
McKechnie solemnly "Background)
Today, more than ever before, the
background of a player is mighty
important. What are his habits?
How does he spend his idle hours
ALL OF THE BETTER PLAY-
ERS IN MY EXPERIENCE
WERE NICE FELLOWS, YOU
NEVER HAD TO WORRY
ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE
DOING AFTER THE GAME!"
* * *
Ne have taken the liberty of
putting those two final sentences in
capital letters, Far be it from the
likes of us to even mildly criticize
the dicta of a man having Mc-
Kechnie's lengthy service and vast
experience. Still, if he was up there
for 40 years, he must have run
across characters such as Dixey
Dean, Lefty Gomez, Grover Cleve-
land Alexander, Pepper Martin -to
name Just a few,
* * *
"You never had to worry about
what those eggs were doing after a
game?" Sounds from here as if

Camels Are Desert
"Newly-Arrived's"
It h startling, but incontestably
true, that the cancel, which we al-
ways associate with the desert
scene, was not used in the Sahara
until_ well into the Christian Era,
The carpel was imporred into
North Africa from the East and
carne tardily and gradually. Or
rather cause hack. In prehistoric
days it had existed in the coastal
regions that are now called 'Tunisia,
Algeria and Morocco. Its bones
have been dug up. But the wild
camel died off before ratan learned
to use 11.
The slowness of the process by
which the camel—the much-needed
cannel—moved westward from Asia
Minor toward and into the Saharra
is . a puzzle. One would have
thought that this seemingly Heav-
en-sent desert vehicle of transport
would have swept into popularity
in a few years. But it took cent-
uries,
In early historic days even Egypt
so close to the East, had un camels.
The father of Rauteses 11 was
obliged to have a cistern built in
the desert east of the Nile so that
his men could reach the gold mines
without risking death by thirst,
they having had no transport hitt
asses to carry water for their jour-
ney. fly the seventh ceutsry B.C.,
there is noted the limited use of
camels in Egypt .
A small, but significant circum-
stance which 1 have noted is that
at Alexandria, which was far closer
to the East whence camels carne,
end at a considerably later (tate thane
that of Alexander the Great's pil-
grimage, the celebrated procession
. , . included camels along with
exotic and unfamiliar beasts like
zebras, a white hear, a rhinoceros.
It seems obvious that camels must
still have been much of a rarity, else
they would not have been given a
place in this great show ,
in short, at least a thousand
years elapsed between the first in-
troduction of the cannel into North
Africa, in Egypt, and its adoption
as a regular ttteans of transport.
Vet it was the cancel aloste that was
capable of, and eventually did, open
up that immense trans Saharan

Searching For
"Extinct" Monsters
Fur many year's scientists have
agreed that there are more myster-
ies in the sea than are ever likely
to be solved, 1Tnlike the majority
of us they have rarely been incred-
ulous of the stories of monsters
and mermaids that have entertained
its for so long. And they have been
even less so shire December 22nd,
1938,
On that day they received lite big-
gest shock in scientific history, A
trawler fishing off the. coast of
East London, South Africa, found
a strange, steel-hltte fish in the
catch.

It measured five feet in length
and its most unusual feature were

its fins which had developed until
they looked like amts or legs.
Because it was so unusual, the
skipper had it preserved and sent
to Dr, J, L. B. Smith of Rhodes
University,
Dr. Smith examined the fish and
his subsequent story shook the
scientific world to its foundations,
The strange fish belonged to a
species that has been extinct for
50,000,000 years—or thought to be,
In other words this species has
actually lived all that time, un-
known to ratan,
Unfortunately, after I)r. Smith
had finished, the mysterious fish was
handed to a local taxidermist who
stuffed it ,throwing the head and
entrails away before biologists
could examine theist.
That is why, early in the New
fear, an expedition of twenty-five
scientists sailed to discover, if pos-
sible, the area where the species,
Hurst spawn and also ,to look for
proof of the existence of outer
strange marine creatures,
If the seas can hold such a secret
for so long, how many more sur-
prises might there he in store for
its? Perhaps in the not -so -distant
future sceptics will be made to
think again about the existence of ,
the Loch Ness monster, for in-
stance.
We—the laymen—laughed when
officers of the Mauretania reported
seeing a curious monster, even
though their story was supported
by passengers, We laughed when
Hans Egede, the missionary, vouch-
ed for one, and even when utetnbera
of the Zoological Society reported
another.
\Ve were even disbelieving when
fifty foot carcases of unknown
species have been washed up on
the shores of India and Africa,
Scientists, however, have not been
so sceptical—at least not since 1938.
But what of mermaids?
Both Beebe and Barton have re-
ported strange deep-sea fish that
looked almost human, seen through
the windows of their bathyspheres.
At the sane time every sailor
who sails the seas does not spend
Itis life trying to spoof people.
Scores of tithes they have told of
mermaids, until constant jeers forc-
ed them to keep quiet, Yet they
cannot all be wrong.
All Nonsense?
In 1891 a mermaid was reported
to have been seen off the Orkneys,
and all the newspapers carried the
story. Site was described as having
a small black head and a milk -white
body with long arms.
Two years later another tuermaid
was seen by a man and his wife at
almost the same spot, They agreed
she was beautiful and had lots of
thick brown hair,
Nonsense?
Of course it is all silly nonsense.
So was the atom bomb once. So
was the motor ear and the aero-
plane.

Convicted criminals in a state
penitentiary are supposed to he a
hardened lot, But some things are
too Hutch even for them to stom-
ach. Judging by an article in the
Monthly Record, a publication pro-
duced by instates of the Connec-
ticut State Prison radio crime is
one of those things.
One contributor wrote:
I get glass -eyed who anger
(when) 1 think how the radio
crime presentation industry oper-
ates its debasing crime schools,
A barrage of how -to -do -it crinis
programs is pouring into the homes
of the susceptible American pub -
lie, Your kids are constantly 41eiug
shown that if they aren't as stupid
as the villains of the programs,
they can easily get away with crime,
Every teen ager knows he's not
that stupid, so Ire begins getting
ideas, wad there's another young-
ster headed for skid rote to get a
gun and maybe ultimately a trip
to the hot seal.
Headed "15,000 Murders a
Month," the article expressed the
view of a number of prisoners in
the institution that programs drip-
ping with guile and gore occupy
altogether too large a proportion of
the time on radio station schedules,
That is expert testimony. Who
should know better what it takes
to make a criminal than those who
have trade the grade, the down-
grade?
The teen in Wethersfield Prison
are paying their debt to society
When will the professional and
commercial exploiters of a de-
praved taste for crime—the pro-
ducers and sponsors of thinly
veneered glorifications of the gun-
man and gun atoll—begin to do as
much?
Investigate --
Before You Join
Before you invest, investigate.
That's the advice of the Better
Business Bureau and it makes ,ease
whether applied in purchasing a
washing machine, a security or
joining some popular movement, It
i; particularly applicable just now
when It's hard to tell a Communist
shy,,er from a genuine social rs
fortner.
Already a lot of organizations
ith fine democratic names have
been exposed as ideological boiler
shops. A lot of unthinking liberals
and do-gooders who didn't investi-
gate what they were getting into,
have been left holding the bag. To-
day there are three or four world-
s• ide Communist sales organiza-
tions. All are selling a highly mar-
ketable and desirable product —
"Peace."
e.
The line is this: "If war conies
it will be the fault of the 'I'ruutan-
iacs. The Soviet Union wants to ban
the Bomb. The others refuse to do
so." in other !lords, condition our
minds to accept the Big I.ie that
if war does come, it will he of our
snaking, not Russia's.
One sales force aims at labor;
another at Ni men; a third at the
"cultural" levet—the arts, science,
etc.—and a fourth at youth.
The latter organization is called
the World Federation of Demo-
cratic l'outh, "Thes'e's also a

Recently, the Communist youth
movement staged a World Youth
& Student Festival in Budapest,
behind the Iron Curtain, A young
American who attended, writing in
a U.S. magazine article, said he
was "appalled" by what he called
the "defamation" of the West,
Among the hundresd of young
delegates were 32 Canadians repre-
senting these organizations
National Federation of Labor
Youth, National Committee of

Except for the Stud(attt Christian
Movement, all are either outright
Communist affiliates or front or-
ganizations. At least 20 of the 32
delegates were known Communists.
Some were members of the "!lea-
ver Brigade." This is a Communist
youth shock troop group. Since the
war, they have made annual trips
behind the Iron Curtain to work
with pick and shovel on Communist
work projects.
The Canadian party also included
a contingent of musicians, dancer.
and singers, At least two of theist
are members of the Toronto Sym-
phony and one holds a staff posi-
tion with the 'Toronto Royal
Conservatory of Music.
'I'Ite leader of the delegation was
Norman Penner, long a Communist.
He is the head of the LPI"s youth
movement. From hint and his Que•
bee deputy Camille Dionne, the
conference got its report on the
state of culture in Canada.
When he came back, Penner
made a coast-to-coast tour carry-
ing the Budapest message to the
Canadian faithful and sympathizer..
What Penner attd hie world youth
movement and all Cotntnunists are
selling is totalitarianism done up
in a fancy package. In a wrapper
labeled "Democracy," it has been
forced down the throat of ntuch
of Europe and now China.
Today more than ever before we
should ,investigate before lending
support to causes no matter how
attractively presented, If we don't
we are quite likely to find that our
names and financial contributions
are being -used to undermine the

Housing Problem
In a big city department store,
a woman was extremely interested
in a display of doll houses. Site
examined each one very minutely.
Finally, she stood in front of one,
and when she read the exorbi
tent price tag, she was petrified.
The saleslady, noticing her star-
ing at the expensive doll house
asked: "May I help you, nradatn?"
The womant smiled sweetly and
replied: "Of course, you arrange
jfor the mortgage on this!"

Paris Puts on the Dog—Paris' fashion centre is all a -dither over
the showing of its new spring collection for 1950. Don't be
surprised if some of the enthusiasm bubbles over into Mom's
own wardrobe, Any evening, for example, you might come
home and find her lounging in the impish Dalmatian -hound
print costume above. The spotted slacks, topped by a black
wool jersey blouse and an orange crepe scarf, tvere put together
by designer Baltuain. Or' maybe she'll be ready to roam in

"What's Up, Doc?" --Well, Easter is coming, and Bugs Bunny and all the other bunnies are
getting set for the annual Easter egg hunt, This was a pre -Easter hunt staged by a florist and
the raft of bunnies you see are mostly kiddies in rabbits' clothing.
rTABLE TALKS
Some experts has figured out that
if each of tis would eat a dozen
eggs more this year then we did
last, there wouldn't be any surplus
—and no more talk about Govern-
ment price support.
More eggs mean better nutri-
ment. For eggs, like milk, stand
close to the top of the best foods
we have. And eggs have one ad-
vantage over milk—they come al-
ready packaged and protected,
In that package you get a com-
plete protein, as good as lean meat
—and, at present prices, a good
deal more economical. You also get
plenty of iron and vitamin A, both
of thein especially good for us at
this time of year. And don't forget
that while the yolk makes up only
about a third of the contents of
an egg, it's even richer than the
white in percentage of protein, and
contains nearly all the iron and
vitamins. It's rich .in fat too,
Here's a mighty fine cake that
takes care of a lot of extra egg
yolks—a very handy recipe to have
some time you've been baking an
angel -food cake for "company."

GOLDEN YELLOW CAKE
2/ cups sifted. cake flour
/ teaspoon salt
2/ teaspoons baking .powder
11/2 cups sugar
/ cup butter
8 egg yolks
/ teaspoon lemon extract
/ teaspoon orange extract
/ cup milk
METHOD; Cream butter and
sugar. Beat egg yolks until very
thickl add to sugar and butter. Sift
together the flour, baking powder
and salt, three times, Add flavoring
to the milk, Then add, alternately,
flour and milk (about one-third at a
time) to the creamed mixture, beat-
ing after each addition, Bake at
375 degrees, Use three of your

something that's been happening
for a long, long time—and will

can really recommend.
WESTERN PRIDE COOKIES
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 cup shortening
2 eggs
1 cup coconut
3 cups quick -rolled oats
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped nutmeats
METHOD: Heat eggs in 'nixing
bowl, add sugar and softened short-
ening, mix well. Add coconut, nut-
meats and vanilla.
Sift and measure the flour and
add the salt, soda and baking
powder, sift together, and add to
first mixture, Add rolled oats and
mix thoroughly. Roll into small
balls the size of a large walnut,
press down on cooky sheet, crease
with fork if desired, Bake at 375
degrees for nine mitiuies, or until
nicely browned,
This recipe will make 80 gen-
erous sized cookies that will keep
well for a long time in a covered
jar—if the jar is safely hidden, that
is,

1 egg
METHOD:Sift flour three times
with salt, soda and ginger. Cream
butter and sugar until smooth, Add
egg and molasses. Beat until smooth -
and fluffy (about 300 strokes by
hand). Add fruit juice and orange
rind, Stir in flour until all is well
blended.
Drop by teaspoonfuls on an un-
greased cooky sheet, Brush with
slightly beaten egg white (a fork
dipped in egg white to flatten the
cooky). Sprinkle with sugar. Bake

THE CHURCH SUFFERING
AND TRIUMPHANT
1 Peter 4:12.13; Rev, 7;9-17,
Golden Text—If we suffer, we shall
also reign with Hint, II Tim. 2:12a
Jesus warned his disciples that
great suffering would befall them,
'When Nero became emperor (54
A.D.)–the severe persecution soon
began, In order to cast off suspi•
cion front himself for the burning
of Rome, he blamed the Christians.
Many were crucified; others were
covered with pitch, nailed to posts
and burned. Paul was beheaded and
Peter crucified,
But Christians view suffering
differently, Peter said, "Rejoice, in-
asmuch as ye are partakers of
Christ's sufferings; that when Flis
glory shall he revealed, ye may
be glad also with exceeding joy
Tradition says that when the sol-
diers were about to crucify Peter,
he requested that he be put on
the cross with his head dowse, as
he felt unworthy to be crucified in
the same position as his Savior, iie
and others felt that it was an honor
to partake of Christ's sufferings.
John's vision of the reward for
those who are faithful through their
tribulations is of great comfort.
"They shall hunger no more neither
thirst any more—God shall wipe
''away all tears from their eyes."
The glories of heaven will be ample
reward for all the sufferings of
this present age.

suffering today; especially where
communism is in control, In our
land the Christian may! be taunted
because he does not nth with those
who do 'evil, It takes courage for
your people to take the unkind
remarks, but since they have greater
riches and enjoyment in the service
of Jesus' Christ, they have every
reason to rejoice.
Everyone in the world suffers.
But the man who has forgotten God
does not have the spiritual forti-
elation for the time of di►tress. Two
