Riders for the
Hoot -Owl
Pool
by G. H, SHARP
CHAPTER FOUR
(Continued from last week)
Sheriff Hank Roberts left the
saloon with the doctor. The old
peace officer walked with a steady
gait. Above the bandages, his face
was gray and drawn with pain, but
his puckered eyes were narrowed,
hard. He refused the doctor's arnt.
There was the bloodstained pool
table and the water in the basin
that had become pinkish from
blood, Tex and the Hoot -Owl
Pool cowboys lined up at the bar.
Webb stood there, alone, save for
old Judge Anders in his rusty black
suit and threadbare white shirt and
string tie,
"Come, Webb," said Judge And-
ers and, taking the cowboy's arm,
he led him down the street to his
cabin.
* * *
Judge Anders found a sealed bot-
tle and a corkscrew, He made
Webb tare a stiff drink. Then he
shoved him into the bathroom and
laid out a razor and shaving mug.
He turned on the hot water,
"I'll send a kid to the hotel for
your clothes, Webb, You'll feel
better after a bath and shave." IIe
closed the bathroom door.
Back in the front roost of his
cabin, Judge Anders stood looking
at the uncorked bottle. Everything
in his body cried for that whisky.
His hands were unsteady as he
corked the bottle and put it back
in the cupboard. His lips twitched
nervously and his gait was slow,
faltering, as he moved away from
the closed cupboard that held the
untouched bottle,
He went on up the street, He was
steady enough note as he walked
into Mae's restaurant, His smile
faded when the cook told him that
Mae was not there. She had gone
to the town dance.
"Alone?"
"Not exactly, Judge," said lhe
cook, an old roundup cook, "She
went with Ab Abbot."
Old Judge Anders carried Webb's
telescope valise from the hotel. It
was a little too heayy for hint and
he had to keep changing hands. It
kept hitting the sides of his legs,
almost upsetting him, But he did
not seem to notice. He staggered
on doggedly until he got to his
cabin,
Webb had bathed and shaved. He
bad a bath towel wrapped around
his middle when he opened the
door, Judge Anders came in, . a
forced smile on his face.
"Thought I'd bring it myself,
Webb. Need the exercise,"
Webb looked at the old attorney.
Then he held out his hand, When
he spoke, his voice was none too
steady.
"I don't know what I ever did,
Judge, to earn the sort of friend-
ship you've showed me."
"Drink, Webb?"
"I reckon not, Unless you need
one."
"I haven't touched it since the
night after your trial, There's a
case of it in the clothes closet. It
hasn't been touched until tonight
when I opened that bottle."
Webb dressed and they sat there
in the front room, talking. Or,
rather, Judge Anders talked and
Webb was forced to listen. Webb
wanted to go up town. He wanted
to see Mae, talk to her for a little
while, Just for a few minutes. Be-
cause, save for Judge Anders, he
was absolutely friendless.
He couldn't leave the old man
now. It wouldn't be the square

thing to do. And Judge Anders
sat there smoking, talking on and
on about his yesterdays, Webb
shifted uneasily in his chair and
tried to pretend to listen,
It was nearly midnight before
Webb could get away. The old at-
torney was asleep in his big arm
chair, his pipe in his hand. He
looked gray from fatigue and he
stirred restlessly in his sleep, Ex-
haustion had blanketed the old man
with slumber, Webb left hint there
in his big, old chair,
He went up the street, spurs
jingling. Mae's restaurant was
closed, He found his way through
the pines to her cabin, but the cabin
door was padlocked, -
He reckoned she was at Hank
Robert's place. He knew that he
wouldn't be welcome at Hank's.
A familiar figure lurched from
the lighted doorway of a saloon. A
short, heavy -shouldered, bowlegged
ratan with a shapeless hat pulled
slantways across his eyes. His
Widespread gait was unsteady. His
spur rowels dragged on the wide
plank sidewalk. He had a bottle
of whisky in one hand, a six-shooter
in the other,
* * «
Somewhere a piano was pounding
out a ragtime piece. Some drunken
cowboy was trying to sing. There
was the laughter of dancehall girls
and the voices of men in some sort
of an argument, Yellow, blurred
light shone from saloon windows,
"Damned if It ain't Webb Win-
ters," leered, the man with the gun
and the bottle.
"It's me, Joe Blake."
"What you huntin'? Trouble?i"
"Hell, no, Webb, I'm just in
town, that's all, A mart's got to
kinda celebrate now and then, ain't
he?"
"Better put up that gun, Blake,
or else use it,"
"Meanin' what, neighbor?"

Webb's right band held a gun,
The gun covered the boss of the

"Put 'er away," said Webb, "or

Slowly, with a fumbling move-
ment, Joe Blake put away his gun.
He grinned drunkenly and held out
his bottle to Webb,
"Drink, neighbor?"
"Nol" Webb's voice was taut.
"Too damn proud, tnebby?"
"1 reckon that's about it, Blake.
When I drink, it's with friends,

"I savvy." Joe Blake seemed to
sober suddenly. His voice lost its
blurred thickness and there In the
uncertain Tight, his eyes were two
red slits,
"Keep on rememberin', Blake,"
"I ain't the forgettin' kind, Win-

"So 1 figgercd."
The two men stood there in the
shadowed yellow light thrown on
the plank'walk by a saloon window,
Webb slowly pug his six-shooter
back in the waistband of his
trousers,
"Want it, Blake?" he said quietly:
"Want that sing in your belly?"
"What you dirvin' at?" growled
Joe Blake. •
Webb grinned a little, "The

to give me the kind of news that I
wanted. Blake, I'tn not goin' to

you're, drunk. Go sober up, then

Abbot when you find him."
"What's the idea of talkin' that -

"Just a notion. Take the news to

Joe Blake stood there, his face
twisted with hate, yet he made no
move for his gun.
"You're sayin' words that no man

LESSON
Jacob, A Man of Striking Contrasts
Gen, 35;1.7, 9-12
Golden Text; -Behold, I tun with
thee, and will keep thee in 6I1
places whither thou goest.-Gen,
28:15a,
The word "Jacob" means "heel -
grasper," It was applied to the
subject of this lesson because of
att incident at birth, It was a very
apt choice, for the name signified
his character, Once and again he
plotted to supplant his twin bro-
ther. He bought the birthright for
a mess of pottage when Esau came
in from the hunt, ravenously hun-
gry. Then, aided by his mother, he
deceived his aged 'father and se-
cured the patriarchal blessing,
Jacob was a supplanter,
There are two high points in Ja-
cob's spiritual development, .These
were at Bethel and Penlel, He was
at Bethel fleeing from home be-
cause his enraged brother planned
to slay hint, Years later at Peniei,
he !net with God before facing this
brother at the head of four hundred
armed men. Bethel means "house of
God", When he . awakened after
his dream of the ladder to heaven
with the angels ascending and
descending on it and heard a mes•
sage • front the Lora who stood
above it, he exclaimed, "--Surely
this is none other but the house of
God, and this is the gate of heaven,"
At Peniel, Jacob, having sent his
possessions and his family across
the brook, wrestled alone with God,
His thigh was put out of joint,
Then he confessed his nature, He
received a new name and, a new
nature. "Thy name shall be called
no more .Jacob, but Israel (Prince
of God), for as a prince thou hast
power with God and with men, and
hast prevailed. He called the name
of the place, Peniel (face of God);
for, said he, "I have seen God face
to face, and my life is preserved,"
"Whatsoever a man soweth that
shall he also reap." As Jacob de-
ceived his father, covering his
arms and chest with kidskin, so
years later he Was deceived by his
sons. They killed a kid, too. In
its blood they dipped Joseph's beau.
tiful coat and proceeded to deceive
their father. Jacob's spirit struck a
new low when, years later, he la-
mented, "Joseph is not, and Simeon
is not, and ye will take Benjamin
away: all these things are against
Inc." But the darkest hour is just
before the dawn. Soon he would
see Joseph and lie and his family
would be bountifully cared for dur-
ing the famine. Jacob is an intri-
guing character.

Summer came to Ontario last
week , , , and it stayed for nearly
four whole days, So what? Well,
we took off the storm windows and
I spent one whole precious day
painting screens and getting them
on. We drew down blinds against
the sun; we .opened windows to
windward and we brought the elec-
tric fan out of hiding. Then as we
were expecting three of our folks
home for the weekend I went shop-
ping with hot weather menus in
mind -fruits, jellies, and drinks, and
.the makings for various salads,
Then with the capriciousness for
which our Canadian climate must
surely be getting famous the wea-
ther changed again, We needed
soups more than salads; hot drinks
rather than the iced variety. We
shut up the doors and' some of the
windows and in the evening we
had a fire in the kitchen and a bit
in the furnace too.
However, maybe the cooler wea-
ther was responsible for my hav-
ing a job done for me which per-
haps wouldn't even have been start-
ed had the weather remained hot.
Anyway, . four energetic young
people got busy with pails and rags,
and washed all the muresco off
the ceiling of the roost that is next
in line for being attacked with roller
and water -paint. So now, to my
way of thinking, the worst part
of the job is clone,
* t *
Sunday afternoon we had a very
interesting and. enjoyable experi-
ence, We had heard that up country,
not so very many guiles from here,
there were beavers at work and we
thought a real beaver dam might
be worth investigating -the Exhi-
bition variety being the only ones
most of us had seen.
We drove along a very narrow
country road -so narrow that two
cars could pass only by having
their two off -side wheels off the
road -and was I glad it was Bob
who was driving! To get to the
dam we had to walk about half
a mile through the bush until we
came to the stream. In one place
we didn't need anyone to tell us
beavers had been at work, Several
tall silver birch, about 6 inches in
diameter, lay across the stream, and
had been cut down by these mar-
vellous little animals, Quite evi-
dently a new dam was in the mak-
ing, Knowing there was more than
that to see we continued on our
way, pushing through underbrush,
stumbling over the rocks and
stones, and trying to evade the
marshy bogholes that were every-
- where. Then 'int a bit of a clearing
there was the dams IVe had heard
it was about fifty or sixty feet
wide but it looked to us to be
nearer a hundred and it was holding
back a tremendous amount of wa-
ter, In fact, although we had not
seen it, others whom we met told
us that quite a stretch of road,
further up the line, was flooded
on account of the water the dam
was holding back.
I suppose, like other folk, I had
heard of beaver dams and knew
pretty tvell what to expect but
actually seeing it is something else
again. As far as we could figure
it out each dans is started by the
beavers felling trees in such a way
that they fall horizontally across
the creek or stream a few feet
apart, '!'hen they build their dam
by filling in between the trees
with brush, small trees, stones,
grasses and weeds, bound together
with mud, Naturally as "the body
of water increases' they build higher
and higher, The mud, so I am told,
is put on with their feet and `
smoothed down with the tail, which
closely resembles a trowel! The
beavers live on roots, bark and
water plants and they always con.
gregate in families, Their work is
done at night -which accounts for
the fact that we did not sec any
beavers, although with this remark-
able evidence confronting us we
certainly had little doubt of their
existence, When we were finally
ready to leave the,;dant we found
ourselves face to face with.several
head of young cattle coming down
for a drink, so we decided to fol•
low the cowpatli as a way out of
the bush -and it was a far quicker
and easier way to travel than the
way we had chosen to come in.
Back in the car we thought we
would go on up the road if it
wasn't too badly flooded. We
watched other cars come through
without any mishap so Bob figured
the June Bug could take it too.
And she did -with the water up
to her axles.
Well, having seen the dant, 1,
for one, wanted more particulars,
so this Morning I began making
inquiries.. I learned that in August,
1949, the local Sportsman's Club
managed to procure two beavers,
one of each sex, which they placed
in the bush, The Department of
Lands and Forests also contri-
buted two and the four beavers were
thou left to their own devices.
Since they propagate fairly rapidly,
and always live in families, it is
surely safe to assume that their
number has doubled,
With soil and water conservation
such a vital problem it would scent
that the industrious beaver could
be used more often than it is.
Perhaps this project could be du-
plicated in other counties,
Our feet are a precious gift
52 bones, 214 ligaments -snore com-
plicated, more delicate • than ma-
chinery, With a little cart, our feet'
will give perfect, painless service.
Without care, they'll lead to loss of
time and earning power, When
your feet give trouble, don't shrug
it off.

TABLE TALKS
clam Andrews,
Back in grandmother's day fresh
salads were regarded—at least on
this continent—as something of a
novelty. But now they are consid-
ered an appetizing and very health-
ful addition to any meal,
Just how popular they are is
• found in the statement that one
railroad, not the largest by any
means, serves more than one hun-
dred and twenty-five thousand of
its special salad bowls annually to
dining -car patrons; and practically
every good restaurant and hotel
features a distinctive salad bowl
formula such as the one I give here
called;
CHEF'S SALAD BOWL
1 head lettuce
• 1 cup diced cucumbers
1 green pepper cut in stripe
1 cup cooked ham cut in
strips
3 hard -cooked eggs cut in
eighths
2 tomatoes cut in wedges
IA to 4 cup French dressing
1 tablespoon nippy cheese
1 tablespoon catsup
Methods Break lettuce in bit -size
pieces in salad bowl which has been
rubbed with a garlic clove (option-
al), Add vegetables and meat. Com-
bine French dressing with remain-
der of ingredients and mix well,
Four over salad and toss lightly,
BASIC FRENCH DRESSING
1 teaspoon dry mustard
IA teaspoon celery salt
14 teaspoon onion salt
IA teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons white vinegar
6 tablespoons salad oil (olive
or corn ol1)
1 clove garlic
Method: Mix all ingredients in a
tightly stoppered bottle about an
hour before needed. Remove gar-
lic before mixing with the salad
which should be tossed together
just before serving,

A friend passes along this recipe
for "Strawberry' Ballymaloe," des-
cribed as "a cook's dream—a failure -
proof cake, delightfully easy to
niake, taking only twelve minutes
to bake, When topped with fresh
strawberries it is a dessert fit for
kings and queens."
The story goes that the recipe
originally came from Ireland --
which accounts for the name—and
that the ingredients were listed like
this "Four eggs; the weight of two
eggs in flour; the weight of three
eggs in sugar" and so forth.
However, for the convenience of
us less patient cooks on this side
of the water, these amounts have
been translated into more modern

--with just the comment that you
don't need ,to confine Ballymaloe

berries, peaches, or canned fruit

Although my next offering is
called "Ice Box Cake" you don't
actually have to own a refrigerator
in order to enjoy it—not so long
as you have a really cool place to
give the cake a chilling after the
filling is spread between the layers,

In conclusion, as the canning
and preserving season is almost
upon us again, just a few words
of well -meant advice. They're
words that I know every manit-
facturer of fruit pectins wish were
emblazoned in hinge letters on every
kitchen wall.
When using fruit pectins—either
liquid or powder—follow the print-
ed directions to the letter, Don't
try and improve on them by using
"a little more of this" or " a little
less of that." If you do you may
be sorry—and then blame the pro-
duct rather than the real culprit,

The doctor placed a thermome-

he removed it, the man, who had
watched spellbound, being unused
to such silence on the part of his
better half, blurted out: "Doctor,
what will you take for that thing

HOW CAN 1?
By Anne Ashley
Q, How can I remove scratches
from silver?
A, Purchase a small quantity of
putty powder, put it into a saucer,
and add just enough olive oil to
make a paste, Rub this paste on
the silver with a soft flannel cloth;
then polish with a chamois and the
scratches will disappear.
Q, How can I make a good hot -
weather salad?
A. A delicious salady can be made
by spreading creams cheese over
tomato slices, then arranging therm
in layers.
Q, How can I remedy a few
small leaks in my garden hose?
A. Try painting the hose on the
outside with a pliable roofing pain.,
It will last at least another season.
Q. How can I clean a straw hat?
A, A good cleaner for the straw
hat can be made by mixing corn
meal, a strong solution of oxalic
acid, and water, to a thick paste,
Rub this into the *straw thoroughly,
allow to dry,' and then brush it
well,
Q, How can I remove tar or
pitch stains from fabrics?
A. Sweet oil or lard rubbed over
the tar or pitch stains will remove
them. If the stains are on silk or
worsted materials, it is better to
rub them with alcohol,
Q. How can I keep ants and
roaches from the kitchen and
pantry?
.k. Wash the kitchen and pan-
try shelves and woodwork with a
hot strong solution of alum water.
Q, How can I Improve the ap-
pearance of the backyard fence?
A. Grape vines and blackberry
bushes planted along the back
fence are not only nice for the
grapes and berries they produce,
but will add to the appearance of
the yard.
Q, How can I renovate an old
grass rug that has become shabby
and worn?
A, It can be restored wonderfully
by giving it one or two coats of
clear shellac. This will bring back
the colors and luster.

Common Mistakes
Too deep, too thick and too soon
are perhaps the commonest mis-
takes made in gardening when it
comes to sowing seed, There are
a few big things like tulips, gladioli'
or potatoes that ire planted any-
where front 4 to 12 inches deep,
But with the vast majority of needs
deep • planting is inadvisable, The
general rule is three tines the dia-
meter. This means an inch deep
for things like beans, peas, corn
and naturtiums, but mere pressing
in for tiny seed like that of lettuce,
petunias, carrots, etc. With the very
fine seed such as alyssum or poppy,
all that is necessary is to spread and
press in gently,
The larger seed mentioned—that
is peas, beans, etc. -- should be
spaced at least three inches apart.
This is not very difficult as it is
easy to keep each individual seed
separated. With the smaller carrot,
lettuce or beet seed, or flower seed
of about the same size, spacing
will be more difficult, There are
little gadgets on the market which
will help spread out the sowing, or
one can let a dribble trickle be-
tween thumb and finger. Even then,
however, it is best to thin as
soon as the plants are up to at
least an inch apart. This will give
room for development which all
plants must have if they are to
grow well. To spread out the very
fine seed, stuff that is only about
the size of a pinhead or smaller, it
is a good plan before sowing to
mix with a little fine sand or earth
and sow the whole mixture.
Back Savers
It is a good plan to have a
couple of hoes of different size or
perhaps one regular garden hoe
and a Dutch type hoe, The latter;
which is shaped like the letter "D"
is one of the very best tools for
killing weeds and grass under
shrubs and trailing plants and for
leaving a fine mulch behind, One
should be careful, however, as it
will slice off good and bad plants
with equal facility,
With the larger gardens, one of
the small tractors will save as •
enormous amount of hand labor:
Itquipped with cultivator, and pos-
sibly also a small disk or harrow,
these machines thoroughly cult!•
vete a half acre garden in less than
an hour. They are so easily guided
too after a little practice that one
can cultivate to within an inch or
so even of small plants like onions.
This means that there will be
very little garden left to go over
with the hand cultivator.
It's been said before, of course,
that a clean, sharp tool does an
easier and better job than one that
has been left outside all winter.
* * *
.Chemical Fertilizers '
All fertilizers, whether chemical
or natural, are used for two pur-
poses—first and foremost to feed
the plants, secondly to speed growth
and maturity. The second point is
particularly important with vege-
tables, which should be grown as
quickly as possible if they are to
be tender, and it is also important
with long -season, tender things like
melons, squash, cucumbers, corn,
tomatoes, etc., especially in areas
where the fall frosts come early.
Of the chemical or commercial
fertilizers, it is important to realize
that these contain three main es-
sentials—nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash. These are usually
shown by three figures with a .dash
between on the bag or package, As
a rule where green growth is the
important thing as with grass and
leafy vegetables, then a fertilizer
rich in nitrogen will be wanted.
Where root growth is dominant, as
with potatoes, carrots, beets, etc,,
then a formula heavy in potash
would suit. As a general rule a
fairly evenly balanced mixture is
best for the average garden,

With the disastrous Manitoba
floods still vivid in most people's
minds a few words about water
control and drainage might not be
amiss. The control of water has
long been recognized as a responsi-
bility of not only the state but the
individual as well. Almost four hun-
dred years before the birth of
Christ the great Greek philosopher
Plato wrote in his "Laws" the fol-
lowing:
* * *
"If there be a heavy rain and
one of those on the lower ground
injures some tiller of the upper
ground or some one who has a com-
mon wall refuses to give his neigh-
bour an outlet for water; or, again,
if some one living on the higher
ground recklessly lets off the water
on his lower neighbour, and they
cannot come to terms with one an-
other let him, if he will, summon
the offender, if he be in the city
before the warden of the city and
if he be in the country before the
warden of the country, and let him
obtain a decision determining what
each of them is to do, And he who
will not abide by the decision shall
suffer for his morose and malignant
temper, and pay a fine equivalent
to double the value of the injury,
because he was unwilling to sub-
mit to the magistrates,"
* * *
Most countries at some time or
another have assisted fanners in
the drainage of low land; or the
government itself has undertaken
the drainage of certain areas so
that they could be developed for
agricultural purposes, Here in
Canada all the provinces have one
or more acts on the statutes de-
signed to assist farmers by one
method or another in the drainage
of- agricultural land; and several
Departments of Agriculture have
additional policies that provide even
further assistance to the individual
farmer,
k * *
Most of the Canadian drainage
acts now in effect reseumble those
of our own province, \Vhile On-
tario has five acts, the purposes
of them are two -fold, The first is
to enable a group of farmers to
secure an outlet; and the second
is to provide loans, at low interest
rates, for the construction of drains,
* * *
1, Municipal Drainage Act -
Makes it possible to secure outlets
for large areas. The work is gen-
erally carried on by the municipal
council when they are petitioned to
do so by a group of farmers. An
engineer is appointed who makes a
survey and estimates cost. The
cost is assessed to all benefiting
from the project.
* * *
2, The Ditches and Watercourses
Act -Applies to smaller areas with
definite limitations as to size.
* * *
3, The Municipal Drainage Act -
for the construction of drainage
Permits councils to borrow money
for the construction of drainage
works,
* * *
4. Main Outlets -An act of the
Legislature permits a municipal
council to borrow money for the
construction of outlet ditches and
under the Provincial Aid to Drain-
age Act a free grant of 20 per cent
of the cost of the work up to a
maximum of $20,000 may be grant-
ed to a municipality.
* * *
5, Tile Drainage -Assistance is
given for the installation of tile un-
derdrainage by the provision of
surveys at a very nominal cost;
and under the Tile Drainage Act a
farmer may borrow up to $2,000 per
100 acres at 3 per cent interest but
not more than 75 per cent of the
cost of the work. -
* * *
Unlike similar acts in' the Mari-
time Provinces, money has been
borrowed under this Act for tile
drainage work every year since it
Sock With A Sock! -- Anna Hughes Patteson registers real
surprise as she checks the size of one of the socks to be pres-
ented to Gov, -James E. Folsom of Alabama at the 42nd annual
governors' conference, The socks, size 18, pleasure 18 inches
from heel to toe, A dozen socks for each governor will be among
the forty gifts from West Virginia industries to be presented to'
governors and their wives,
was originally passed in 1879, Na-
turally, the amounts borrowed have
varied widely but in 65 years ap-
proximately $4,600,000 has been bor-
rowed by farmers, The municipal
councils who administer these loans
and who inust take the first step
in making the money available for
farmers deserve a great deal of
credit for their progressive attitude,
* * *
Which will be about enough, for
just now, about drainage; and I
realize that the foregoing, although
it's about a "wet" subject, is liable
to prove pretty dry reacting, Still,
it's surprising how many there are
-folks who consider themselves
well-informed too -who .now little
or nothing about these matters,
We're all to apt to say "the Gov-
ernment should do this" or "the
Government should do that" instead
of finding out what the Government
actually is ready and willing to do.

Neale models something new

furs are dyed in contrasting

Passed The Bucks -- A teen-age couple, William ;tial f ie'en
Zoerndt, were arrested in Amsterdam, N.Y,, after a successful
counterfeiting career. The 18 -year-old ex -grocery clerk made
fake $5, $10 and $20 bills and his read -headed 17 -year-old wife

Modern Etiquette
By Roberta Lee
Q. What is the proper procedures
of a best man in regarding to the
wedding ring?
A, He carries it in a righthand
pocket, and is sure to remember
the exact pocket, He joins • the
bridegroom in the room set aside
for their use and walks with him
to the spot where the marriage is
to take place. The best man stands
one pace behind the bridgegroom,
Anticipating the moment that the
ring is to be used, he advances and
places' it in his friend's hand,
Q, When an invitation is accept-
ed by letter, is it considered good
taste to repeat the exact date and
hour mentioned in the Invitation?
A, It is not only good taste to
dc' so, but it also helps avoid any
misunderstanding as to the date
and time.
Q, I have seen people chewing
' ice cream, Is that good form?
A, Chewing ice cream is neither
necessary, nor is it good form.
Q, Is it proper for the bride-
- groom to mail some of the wedding

tations sent,

GRASS SILAGE SOLVES
WINTER FEED PROBLEM
"Grass silage will be the savior
of Canada's winter feed problem,"
Melvin Shull, Kitchener, Ontario
dairyman, told 'a meeting of 1,000
district farmers at the Waterloo
County annual seed fair recently,
He said that grass silage brought
his herd of 75 Jerseys through the
last few winters with no loss of
production and in better condition
than had been his experience with
hay and corn feed.
"It takes courage to go into this
program," be warned. "You have
to keep after the land at all times,
fertilize every -year for greater
yields and plow your fields under
and re -seed every two years." In
Shuh's opinion the younger grass
left lying for an hour after cutting
made the best feed. It is much
cheaper than corn and involves less
trouble in growing and handling.

A S>.xalTC' lc •
\Ve had thought that our neigh-
bors to the innnediate south took
their national sport seriously enough
-•-but it would appear that the folks
"Down Under" go in for baseball
in an even more thorough and in-
tensive manner. Evidently -not sat-
isfied with just playing the game -
they also indulge in something
known as "baseball field games,"
with records made and broken; re-
cords carefully kept, and all the rest
of it.
*
*
But you'll no doubt understand
what we're getting at if we pass
along a few quotes • taken from a
recent Melbourne, Australia, dis-
patch regarding the natter.
* *
"Robert G, Jones of the Univer-
sity of California recently drove a
baseball 511 feet 9 inches and bet-
tered the previous world record by
8 feet 6inchcs, becoming the second
baseballer ever 10 better 500 feet,
The first to top 500 was Australian
Wally Driver, who accomplished
this prodigious feat when he drove
the baseball clean out of the St.
Kilda Football Ground into the
crowd, Where the ball landed on the
fall was noted by an official and the
• Amazing distance of 503 feet 3 ins,
was reported,"
* * *
(We take it that "on the full"
means where, the ball lights, and
doesn't allow for any bounce or roll,
Also, in passing, we would say that
the Aussie bleacheriites can't be
such avid ball-glommers as we have
on this side of the Pacific, But let
us on with the tale,)
* *
"It was unbelievable that a man
could hit a ball so far, especially
as the best professional effort was
70 -odd feet short 'of this record, The
Blighty Babe Ruth had once driven
a ball 421 feet 8 inches, and this
was acclaimed a sensational effort
-and now a schoolboy has driven
a baseball 511 feet 9 inches,"
* * *
(Here we pause to hope that the
great Babe Ruth isn't turning in the
grave over 'the thought that his
record has been so disgraced, Still,
we doubt that he is, Over here,
"fungo-hitting"-which is all that
the great drives above mentioned
actually consist of -isn't taken seri-
ously; and some of the finest fungo
artists we ever saw couldn't bit the
size of their collars in a real game,
But we must return to Australia,
for you haven't heard the half of
it yet.)
* * *
"Let those who may call the
drive a "freak" effort on the part
of the fungo-hitter, but a glance
back over Robert's previous record
surely gives indication that he was
the one main likely to achieve some
sensational figures given the most
favorable opportunities. \Ve in
Australia were given the bare fig-
ures of the University of Cali-
fornia results of their annual base-
ball field games test with the Vic-
torian Baseball Association, in
which Jones topped a record-break-
ing team of three -they also set
a new world team total of 1,37Sft,
7in.-but this writer visualizes per-
fect atmospheric conditions to en-
able the propelled baseball to attain
and maintain maximum velocity,"
* * *
(We warned you 111 advance
that those Aussie baseball writers
put the rzst of us to shame in their
attitude toward the sport, Now,
' maybe you'll believe us. But don't
go away yet, The story continues',
And we'll try not �t mention shr
thrilling yarn so Botch,)
* * *
"We have noted that Robert
Jones has been the world's most
consistent hitter in baseball field
games events over the past three
years, scoring a hat -trick in first
placings for California, winning
the All-American in .1948 and sec-
ond to Edward F, Sobczak in 1949.
Of course, he will once again be
the top All-American in 1950."
* *
"Wally Driver, the "ex -champ,"
was also a consistent hitter in these
games, winning the junior Austra-
lian title before twice taking the.
senior event. Somewhat offsetting
my reasoning that high -rating con-
sistency is the lead up to sensa-
tional achievement, Driver's next
best fungo to his topping 500ft,
was 388ft., which brings an im-
provement of over 100 feet into the
"freak" category."
, * * *
"However, Jones sets us back on
our feet, for in successive years
he hit 459.7ft., 443,3 and 511.9 -
all of which bettered the profes-
sional record, Sobczak, who beat
Jones last year, registered 449.11ft."
*
"Australians - and maybe the
world -thought •Wally Driver's re-
cord would never be broken. But it
has, and by a student at the Univer-
sity of California, the first Ameri-
can academy to set "international
baseball field games" in notion.

These'Things Make
Sewing Easier
Sewing methods arc getting
more streamlined all the time, 'Tine
homemaker needs to keep up to
date, if she would save time and
labobr in garment construction.
For instance, the tedious process
of hemming skirts by hand is out-
dated, Now you dean do a finished
job on the sewing machine, A
blind -stitch attachment, recently
placed on the market, makes this
possible, ;
You simply remove the regular
presser foot from the machine and
attach this instead, It is easy to
use, It works for hemming tow-
els, curtains • or almost 'anything.
And on lightweight or heavy.
weight materials,
And do you have a buttonhole
attachment for your machine?; It is
a great aid, if you have Tots of but-
tonholes to snake. If you don't
feel like going to this expense, do,
at least, buy a pair of buttonhole '
shears, Then you can cut each
hole just the right size,
At very small expense today
you can get an electric light for
the sewing machine, It will save.
your eyes, and help you do a better
job of stitching, Check the lights.
in your sewing -roost, too. For good
work, you Hurst have plenty of light,
without glare or shadows.
-Now that many houses have Clea
.tricity, we women all long for a
new ejectricc sewing machine, But
if your old foot -treadle machine is
in good shape, why wait for that
day to come? At no great cost
you can buy a motor attachment
for your machine, Any handy man
can mount it,
Even the best machine won't
continue to do good work unless
it has regular care, This spring is a
good time to go over yours and see
that it is thoroughly cleaned and
oiled,
Better check your supply of
sewing machine needles, When
one gets blunted, replace it with
a new, sharp one, And use a needle
of a size suitable for the material
you're working on,
That goes for hand sewing, too,
You'll want a supply of sharp,
slender needles, in several differ-
ent sizes, Do you have trouble
threading needles? Then you
should get one of those inexpensive
needle threaders,
There's a hem marker gadget
that any husband will appreciate
when Ice's called on to stick the
pins around the hent of your skirt.
It stands on the floor and has an
adjustable gauge which moves up
and down a measuring stick,
'1'he neat part is the way it holds
the goods while you stick a pin
through the clamp; Then, presto—
it releases and you find the pin
piercing the goods, and always
horizontally.
We could name various inciden-
tals you should have at hand before
starting your sewing,
Shears arc taken for granted.
But are yours sharp along the full
length? Better get them sharpened
by a prrofesslonal if they have a dull
spot. A good pair of shears should
be made of steel.
Blades should be held together
by a 'screw Instead of being rivet-
ed, The handle is bent at an angle
so blades can lie more nearly
horizontal while 'cutting at a table,
Scissors are differentiated by be-
ing shorter, They serve for snipping
thread and rougher. uses, while the
shears should be kept for cutting
cloth only.
And don't forget your pressing
equipment, A clean, well padded
Ironing board is a "must." Also a
sleeve board, It's not only handy
for sleeves but for other places
hard to get at.
Of course, you'll want a good
pressing cloth, Don't run to the

one, Specially made cloths hold
moisture better and have no lint.

There Is A Season
"For everything there is a sea-
son," said the moody author of
Ecclesiastes, going on to specify
among other things, "a time to
plant, and a tiutc to'pluck up that
which is planted." No gardener"
could quibble with that, But on a
simmering Early Sumner day most
gardeners can ask why, at this
particular time, the seasons so con-
spicuously overlap, This is the
time to plant and tend the seedlings,
But it also is the time to pluck up
the weeds which plant themselves.
This is the time to cut the grass,
which is growing like mad on the
lawn, In the orchard, beside the path
and In the lesser tended parts of the
garden itself, This Is the tin►c to
trlun the hedge, which was so neat
two weeks ago and now is a brist-
ling mass of eager shoots intent on
rivaling oaks and elms. This Is a
time to hoe and till and spray arid
dust and nip off dead lilacs and tie
up the rose bushes and stake the
peonies. This is a timet ;
Why docs grass grow two inches
overnight, Just now, when it has all
summer ahead? Certainly there is
an answer, simple and logical and
based in the solid facts of botany.
But why, then, does that answer not
apply to beans, say, or sweet corn?
Besides, your gardener Is not real-
ly asking for logical answers. He is
pleading for time, Titite to get all
the jobs done,
The grapes should be sprayed
again, Blackberries are lam blossom,
The cherrytrees are loaded, Butter-
cups are in bloom, So is hawkweed,
Clover and chickweed flourish in
the lettuce bed. Iris are in flower,
"For everything there Is a season,"
How true, how truel And this
seems to be it, the season for
everything at once.—New York
Times.

There's No Pardon For A Hanged Man
So—Consider Your Verdict
How would you feel if you were
accused of a crime you didn't corn -
mit? Indignant, of course; but the
English legal system is acknowl-
edged to be the best in the world,
giving the most chances to ' the
prisoner at the bar, so if you're
innocent you'll be acquitted, There's
no reason for worrying,
Yet, if it were Inc, I know that
I would worry writes Cyril Ramsay
Jones, in "Answers." I would re-
member a Court of Inquiry in the
Army during the war when two
equally honest witnesses gave con-
tradictory accounts of the same
accident, I would consider how dif-
ficult it is for anyone—with the .
best will in the world—to tell the
whole truth and nothing but the
truth." I would call to mind cases
where the "culprit" has been given
a free pardon after years of unjust
imprisonment,
And I would be profoundly dis-
turbed by the memory of a book,
"Verdict in Dispute" by Edgar
Lustgarten, I have just read, in
which a brilliant barrister, Mr.
Edgar Lustgarten, takes six fa-
mous murder, cases to pieces with
the object of showing that the
verdicts were,' to say the least,
doubtful justice, That is the most
awful fate of all—to be punished

Innocent,
There, is no pardon for hanged
man.
James Maybrick, a substantial
Liverpool cotton broker, died on
May 1 1889. The post-mortem
revealed traces of arsenic in his
body. His American wife, Florence,
twenty-six years his junior, was
arrested. It transpired that she had
a lover, and during the prelimin-
ary hearings Mrs. Maybrick wa3
hissed in court.
When she was brought to trial
the Crown proved (a) that Mrs.
Maybrick had bought fly -papers
containing arsenic and soaked them
in water, (b) that nurses had seen
her handling her husband's meat -
juice which was later found to
contain arsenic, (c) that she had
written to her lover stating that
Maybrick was "sick unto death"
at a. time when the doctors were
optimistic about his recovery,
But the accused was fortunate in
her defending counsel, Sir Charles
Russell, one of the greatest advo-
cates who ever stood at the English
Ear. In cross-examination he este-
blished that the flypapers were
bought and soaked quite openly and
that arsenic was used as a cos-
metic; that Maybrick's brother had
first put the idea of poisoning in
the minds of both doctors and
nurses; that Maybrick had been
accustomed to taking arsenic as a
medicine. Sir Charles forced the
doctors to admit that death might
have been the result of "natural
causes."
Speaking from the dock (until
1898 defendants were not allowed
to give evidence on oath) 'Mrs.
Maybrick stated that she had put
a powder in the meat -juice at the
urgent request of her husband.
Whether this was true or not,
Russell had proved that all the
evidence brought by the Crown
could equally well point to natural
causes and he was, therefore, justl-
fled in telling the jury; "There is
no safe resting place on which you -
can justify a finding that this was
a death of arsenical poisoning,"
After a, rather muddled summing-
up by the judge the Jury brought in
a verdict of guilty, but as a result
of public outcry sentence of death
was later communted to life im-
prisonment, On the evidence (and
a jury has no business to consider
anything else) there seems little
doubt that Florence Maybrick was
innocent.
So, according to Mr. Lustgarten,
was Edith Thompson in the fatuous
case involving herself and Frederick
Bywaters.
Late on a March evening of 1922
Mr, and Mrs. Percy Thompson were
returning from the theatre to their
respectable home in Ilford. Essex,
Suddenly a man thrust the wife
aside, stabbed the husband viciously
in the neck and disappeared. Shriek-
ing "Don't( Don'tl" Mrs. Thomp-
son ran for help, But her husband
was beyond aid.
Despite the fact that the wounls
on his body were plain for all to
see, ,Mrs, Thompson In her ac-
count to the police did not mention
an assailant, Naturally, the police
made further inquiries and discov-
ered that she was having an affair
with a Merchant Navy steward,
aged twenty—her junior by eight
years, Confronted with her lover
at the police station Edith broke
down and Bywater, though denying
murder, admitted the knife assault.
This was obviously enough to
hang him, and duly proved so. But
the police were not satisfied; they
charged Edith with murder as well,
Since Bywaters, not site, had
struck the blow the Crown had to
prove that he had done it with her
knowledge and at her direction. To
do this they relied on a number of
of her letters found in Bywater's
room,. Lr these there were refer-
ences to desperate action, to pow-
dered glass and to something bit-
ter in her husband's tea.
How did the great Sir Henry
Cttrtis-Bennett, who was defending
• Edith Thompson, meet these damn-
ing admissions? 13y the most amaz-
ing and, ultimately, the most con-
vincing pleas ever advanced in a
Court of Law. Ile simply denied
that they had any relation at all
to fact and set out to prove it.
Edith Thotnpson, he said, was
"not some ordinary woman; she
is one of those striking personalities
that stand out." Possessed of a
vitality and a capacity for romantic
passion far too great for her dull
Ilford husband she frantically
sought an outlet for her restless.
tress.
She found it, as her letters show,
in novels whose characters were
completely real to fur -store real
than- the events of ordinary life.
Above all she found it in By -
waters. She regarded her affair
with this rather ordinary' shipping
employee as one of the great love
affairs of all time, When it lacked
romantic details she supplied them
from . her own active imagination
Iter letters contained a great saga
of her battle with her father and
sister, who wanted her to give up
Bywaters. This was the purest fa-
brication, as both father and sister
testified in court.
Frustrated by ordinary existence
she lived "an extraordinary life of
make-believe," part of which was
the operatic plot to murder her
husband. She never intended it to
te carried out, Indeed, as Bywaters
said, there never was a plan at
alt. But because he transformed
fiction into fact, they both went
.to the gallows.
Mr, Lustgarten does not hold
Edith Thompson blameless, but he'
does maintain that she was not
guilty of murder. For to live a life
apart In "an endless romantic tale"
is one thing; and to intend a man's
death and to arrange for someone
else to compass it is quite another.
The jury were not convinced, or
else refused to see this distinction
and sent Edith Thompson to the
gallows.
Were the jury prejudiced? It is
to the danger of prejudicial juries
that Ittr. Lustgarten directs his
most telling eloquence. Whatever
we may think of the character or
behavior of the accused, as jurors
we are concerned with the evidence
only,
If on 'that evidence we find the
prisoner guilty we have done our
duty, But if, because of our own
preconceived ideas, we deny the
prisoner the benefit of any reason-
able doubt to which he is entitled,
we ourselves are guilty of that
frightening moral critne known as
tniscarrlage of justice.
Beware Of
Poison Ivy
Your arm begins to itch, You
rub it again and again. A rash dc-
velops followed by inflammation of
the skin, When the inflamed area
begins ,to spread and small watery
blisters form, the itch becomes
maddening. These developments
may occur in a' few hours or may
lake several days. Poison ivy, Bor.
gia of the countryside has struck,
Found in every province, poison
ivy grows in greatest profusion in
Ontario and western Quebec,
From Quebec City eastward it is
found Tess frequently, and froth
Winnipeg to the Pacific coast grows
mainly at lake and woodland re-
sorts.
Poison ivy grows as a trailing
vine or an upright plant The
leaves, arranged alternately on
woody sterns, 'are composed of
three smaller leaflets. In early
summer small whitish flowers ap-
pear in the axils of the leaves.
Clusters of greenish yellow fruit
which gradually turn white, succeed
the flowers in some locations.
The toxic substance in poison ivy
is called "urushiol" which is con-,
tallied in the leaves, flowers, fruit,
stems or roots. It may persist for
months on gloves, tools, shoes and
picnic outfits. Dogs, cats and other
animals may transmit it to humans.
It is even claimed that particles of
it are carried in the smoke from
burnivy.
Treatingment for ivy poisoning con-
sists of washing affected parts with
laundry soap and warns water im-
mediately after contact. Washing
with alcohol, kerosene or gasoline
arc alternatives, Potassium perman-
ganate solution and calamine lotion
are recommended for certain cases
of poison ivy dermatitis,
Woodlot Farming
Brings Real Revenue
Modern tree farming has made
wood the second most important
ccrop produced on the 680 -acre
Half -Mile High stock farts of Wal-
lace Hanline, Grant County, West
Virginia. Two years ago in one
selective cutting, Hanline harvested
a quartter million board feet of
hardwood netting him $5,500.
Only through scientific woodlot
management has this woodlot farm-
er been able to realize Itis success.
Four generations of highly success.'
ful fire prevention practices and re-
stocking with young seedlings has
transformed once thought of waste
land into, a cash crop,
Commenting on this increased
farming revenue, several experts
feel that many Canadian farmers
could enjoy this also. Efficient cut-
ting of timber and elimination of
wastes would allow for increased
yields and prevent destruction of
the country's precious woodlands.
Cutting should be timed to int-
provvc the quality of the woodlot
and increase cash returns, Im-
provement cutting betters grow-
ing conditions in the woods. Thin-
ning gives the more valuable species
roots to develop and release -cut-
ting controls growth of undesirable
saplings, Finally there are utiliza-
tion cuttings which prepare logs for
sale or fire wood.
If the condition of the woodlot
is carefully studied and analyzed
and good woodlot maitagcntent
practices are employed, the much
needed cash for further develop-
ment of Canadian farms will be
available,
