RIm - Rutabaga Production 66,000 bushels At Blyth Plant Visiting In Town With His Mother Mr, Stewart Young of Fort Williann is. visiting in town With his mother, Mrs. Mary A. Young, and with other family relatives and friends. Stewart is associctcd with the Great Lakes Paper Company, Limited, of Fort William, Ontario, tt company with which he • has made steady progress and tcday he is Assistant Woodlands Managar, his department being re- sponsible for the supply of wood to the mill, ' The company produces a- bout 155,000 tons of newsprint annual- ly and about 60,000 tons of sulphate pulp, the Metter product being for ex- port to the United States where It is manufactured into specialty. papers. Stewart has been with the company for 12 years. His work now •conflncs him to the office in Fort William but he was out in the district for many years, and we gathered from the tenure of Stewart's remarks that he misses the outdoor life. Speaking of the district, as we did, it covers some 4,000 square miles of territory. At the present time the company is operating 11 camps, from which the logs are cut and transport- ed to the mills, Like almost everything else, the methods have changed during• the past few years, and with the change much of the thrill and excitement also disappeared. The machine age hay taken over in the woods, and much of the work originally done by log team is now done by truck and other ma- chines, as roads are made available to the various camp sites. Streams and rivers were also made use of in the former method of transportation, and still ace in some instances. At their peak of production the company employs around 1,000 men. Mr. Kenneth Taylor and Claire have returned home after an enjoyable holiday spent with the former's sister, and'husband,-Dr. and Mrs. M, -E: Ep• person, of Galion, Ohio - Mr. Taylor, reports excellent weather in the State of Ohio, with dandelions in bloom, robins singing, fanners plowings and no snow, and the farm stock running in the fields. Production to the present time at Russel] Dougherty's Rutabaga Proces- sing plant has reached 110 carloads, or 66,000 bushels, according to Mr. Dougherty, with an estimated 25 per cent, or about 10,000 bushels being sold for culls to farmers for feeding purposes. Culls have been • high this year due in most Instances to the mag- gott infection and wet weather. Mr. Dougherty has around another 25,900 bushels in storage and estimates that there must be 10 or 15,000 bush- els in storage in the district, Production will be down about one- third this year, because of the mag- gots infection. Prevailing price for the past two weeks has been 50c per bushel for No. 1 quality rutabagas. A large portion of Mr Dougherty's production has been finding its way to the markets of the United, States. Mr. Dougherty would make no pre- dictions for the future other than to point out that the growing population in both the United States and Canada should create p greater food demand on all fronts. But to offset this is the fact that in the United States there is the probability of an increase in production to fill their own demands which' could result in protection meth- ods against the Canadian product.

Scripture reading by Mrs. Wilmer Lush, and prayer by Mrs, Sadie Cuming:' Taking part in a panel, discu sion with Mrs. Stewart was Mrs, Chester Higgins and Mrs. Donald -McKenzie, Miss Marjorie Stewart, Introduced the theme, "Discovery. in Missions," and the panel sought to prove that the people of India are a deeply religious people and their religion is mainly Hinduism and Buddlsm. Hinduism is is strongly opposed: to conversion. to. other religions, 'being convinced --that Hinduism is as 'capable .of producing saints as any other religion." • • • The Moslem faith is still -strong in India: They place. their faith ° in' the .brotliencOod of . man, The total number who • voted for Communism in India was frightening, Communism has its book stalls este cryvhere, but the people show great • faith and loyalty in what they believe, whatever it may be.' Miss • Stewart closed the interesting dlscuss1on with prayer, promralp ANNE I-HPST "Why are wives so selfish with their husbands, Anne Hirst? Why won't they let the men have a little fun without rais- ing 'such a fuss? If a wife can't hold her husband, why shouldn't some other girl try to get him? It's an exciting game -- and after all, his wife had her chance!" So writes a young woman nearly 30 who has been dating a a married man. Now his wife has found out, "I called her up," continues the writer, "and told her it wasn't my fault, If he'd rather be with her, he'd stay home So now he is trying to keep her from leaving him — and he won't date anyme o more. "Why did she have to spoil our fun?" WHAT PRICE HONOR? * It is hard for decent women * to realize how brazen some * others are. They are out to * get their man, and they don't • care who gets hurt in'the pro- * "pss. They lure him with all • their physical charm; they * appeal to his animal instincts " and weave about him an emo- * tional web against which even • his sense of guilt cannot strug- * gee, The very fact that he * belongs to another woman " adds zest to the conquest; as • this writer says, "It's an ex- * citing game," * Which recalls one wife * I learned of whose husband ' had been playing around for ' quite a while, Finally she • visited his current inamorata; • "I came here," she told me, * "to ask you why you want " my husband, Why anybody • would, is beyond me, 'He * cannot hurt me any more, but * he has bored me for years, * Take him, and good riddance." * -- and more to the same ef- * feet . , . Perhaps my readers * can guess the end, Once the. * girl heard that his wife did * not want him, neither did she, * The girl who deliberately * wins a man from his wife has * a short satisfaction, The day * comes when he sees through * her machinations; he despises * her and himself. On that day, * he is through. * TO "LONELY NOW": Your * code is not one to be proud * of. With your eyes open, you * would steal a man from his * wife, a father from his chit- * dren. A man may weaken for * a while — but which of you * women has won out? Honor • and loyalty and right think- * ing have not vanished from * mankind. * Nothing I say will persuade * you that you were playing a * losing hand. Why pursue a * game you cannot win? * * • CHIDES ANNE HIRST "Dear Anne Hirst: Your col- umn has a vast influence on other people than those who write you, readers who have problems similar to those you answer. I wonder if you would not . do more good if you were less sympathetic with the writ-. ers? I think you could arouse in them more soul-searching and self-analysis than you do, Siding with them only makes them worse, "Human relations always have two viewpoints. You get one, accept it as fact, and sympa- thize, This tends to confirm the writer's point of view instead of helping her amend it. More often than not you are accept- ing half-truths, or truths lifted out of their proper perspective. Anyone with a grievance can- not see clearly. "Think of all your other readers, too. You have an in- calculable opportunity to do far-reaching good. Are you using it? MX." * Thank you for your opin- * ion. It has merit. My first • duty, however, Is to help those • who appeal to me, Each let- * ter is accepted as being hon- • est, and after 20 -odd years of • receiving them one learns to •. read between the lines. • One can sympathize with a • troubled person without agree- * ing with her. If she learns I * am sorry for her plight she is • more apt to act on the accom- • panying advice. • I do not generalize, I have * no set solution for what you * might call Case B-221, for in- * stance. Each problem is con- *• sidered separately, tempera- ' ment, circumstances, back- * ground are all weighed and * all influence my • reply. If * readers who never write me * are helped too, I am grateful; • if they, like you, criticize my • approach, I appreciate their * interest, One is never too old • to learn. * It would be interesting to * know whether other readers • agree with your comment, • • • If you are tempted to date another woman's husband, re- member the .Golden Rule you learned as a child. It still ob- tains ... Anne Hirst's long knowledge of humanity's frail- ties and strengths can be help- ful.

I recently applied for em- ployment and gave the three references requested, Someone has told me since that this was a rude, thing to do without first asking permission to use those names. Is that correct? A. Ordinarily, you should ask permission first, But if time does not allow this, you should inform those persons that you took the liberty of using their names as reference. Q. Is it proper for the bride- groom to give his bride some- thing for the hone as his wed- ding gift? A. This is not customary, His special gift to her should be something for her own personal adornment—usually . jewelry of some kind, Q. Should the candles on the dinner table be lighted after the guests have seated themselves? A. No;. they should be lighted immediately before dinner is an- nounced, Q. What are the duties of the maid -of -honor while the marri- age ceremony is `eking place? • A. She stands nearest the bride, takes her bouquet or prayer book while the ring is being put on, returning ,them at the proper time,' and arranges the bride's train when she turns from the altar to proceed up the aisle after•the ceremony, Q. Is it obligatory to reply to letters of condolence? ISSUE g 1955 A. Yes; send brief letters of thanks to everyone who has sent flowers or personal letters, Q. Is It permissible to sip water while one has food in one's mouth? A. This is considered very bad manners, Q. I have beet invited by a boy to attend a fraternity dance, and he has made reservations for me in the hotel in that town. He has offered to pay the bill, but r my mother says this is wrong. What is correct? A, You pay bothyour travel- ing and hotel expenses. Any entertainment expenses during your visit, of course, are paid by your escort. Q. Is it proper to send out wedding invitations and an- nouncements in the name of the bride's brother, if their parents are dead?' A. Yes; this is quite often done, Q. Should the parents of a child reprimand him' if he mis- behaves at the dinner table ln'• the presence of guests? A. It is better not, Either the father or mother, Should quietly- take the child away from the table. He should not'be scolded or punished in the presence of the guests— butneither should the misbehavior be ignored, RONICLES .316210 4-W Cte CK¢ Louis Bromfield, author, farm- er, naturalist. and owner Of the famous Malabar Farms at Mans- field, Ohio, is selling his herd of Holstein cows because he finds dairy farming no longer profi- table, ' Mr, Bromfield says that almost any type of farming pays off better than milking cowls and that if the resent trend continues, more farmers • will ' realize it and there is liable to be a shortage of good, clean milk within a couple of years, In his 'area . farmers are getting seven . cents a quart for milk that sells .at twenty-two • cents. Well, Mr. Bromfield • isn't the only one that has made that discovery, Plenty of other far- mers are of the same opinion, The trcuble is, unlike the owner ' of Malabar Farms, there. isn't much they.' can afford to do a- bout it. Dairy farming may no longer be actually profitable but if a farmer can only break even he has at least, got something to live on, Another little news -item , I read last week was quite signi- ficant. It related to rising un- employment figures• and, .said this was no surprise ,to farm economists • .because once the farm income shows a serious de- crease, trade and industry • is bound to. suffer, Less .farm in- come equals less buying power, less articles that need to be manufactured -and so, less em- ployment, A 'logical sequence, isn't it—especially since farmers are still the largest buying'group in the country?. . The trouble Is farm incomes fluctuate to such an extent that very' often the average farmer doesn'trealise how badly his in- come la reduced until it is too late' to do much. about it, But' sometime there will be a gen- eral day of reckoning—and .it won't be a happy occasion. The good old belt will come in' for a- little tightening once again . and maybe it won't do us any • harm either, • Easy come, easy go, isn't always a stateto' be desired.

Quite confusing, ' isn't it? In the meantime there are dozens of ways in which ser- vice charges have been Inckeas- ed during the post-war period of expansion and prosperity. There are inspectors for this, that and the other, unheard of twenty-five years ago, Every new inspection department, fed- eral, provincial and county, gives someone a job and in- creases cost of production. Some are necessary, some seem to be quite superfluous.. Some inspec- tors do a good job, others are, Aver -officious. Even thepostal department has inspectors running around the country making sure that the names of rural boxholders are painted on their mail -boxes. Such identification is an excell- ent idea but why an inspector? Seems to me inspection into oth- er branches of the postal service would be more appreciated so that it wouldn't sometimes take three or four days for a letter to come thirty or forty miles, Coming back to rural mail- boxes. We got into trouble our -- selves because we have our name plate—illuminated—on the gate post instead of the mail- box. We obeyed the spirit of the law but not the letter, in that we . provided identification :','of our abode but did not paint our name on both sides of the mailbox as required by Iaw, so of course we are liable to have our mail service suspended, Our reason for doing it the way we did? Well, since we bought a large mailbox it has had the post knocked off three times, holes shot through It by hunt- ers, the box several times re- moved by Hallowe'en prank- sters, used as a nesting place by starlings, backed into by pass- ing motorists, and clipped off by snowploughs and graders. May. be we have a little more mail- box trouble than the rest of the people on our highway because it so happens that our laneway is the only one for half -a -mile without a grade so It comes in very handy for motorists look- ing for a place in which to turn. Of course if they happen to turn short and back into our mailbox, what does it matter? Another dent or two in a bat- tered mailbox won't make any difference, Just the other day I went down to put a letter in the box and found yet another car had hit it, jamming the sides in so that the box would- n't open, With these various conditions in mind when we ac- quired 'a name -plate, we thought it would be less likely to come to grief a little piece back from the mailbox, But apparently that doesn't satisfy the inspector of rural services. We think it is just another case of quibbling at straws. If we had a legiti- mate complaint to make to the postal department—which could have been done many times in the past—how much attention would it receive? Most of our mail -couriers have been good men—we have po complaints on that score, They have a difficult job these days and we appreci- ate the service they give.

TOE Calvert SPORTS COLUMN 4 Eemet ?evade • Even the proximity of death and disaster from overhanging black clouds of Armageddon cannot completely wipe out an inborn love of sport, For this dips down deep Into the roots of man. Last summer we saw one of the finest examples of the fashion in which sport can set aside the terrors that may suddenly plunge a country into chaos, when all of Europe outside the Iron Curtain practically went berserk in celebration of West Germanys 3-2 victory over Hungary for the world soccer championship, Hungary's team from behind the Iron Curtain hadn't been beaten in four years, The I-Iungarians were regarded as a certainty to win again. Early in the going they led 2-0, which in soccer is tantamount to a 4-0 lead in hockey, But the West Germans rallied and eked out a 3-2 triumph, An Associated Press story from Frankfort declared the reaction was "like the World's Series, a heavyweight championship and the Kentucky Derby rolled into one," Chancellor Konrad Adenauer sent a congratulatory tele- gram to the team. Theodor Ileuss, ['resident of West Ger- many, announced theta a silver laurel -leaf medal awaited each member of the team upon arrival home. On their return, the conquering heroes of the soccer field were given a reception of which royalty wouldn't be ashamed. Perhaps this outburst of enthusiasm was promoted by the fact that a team from behind the Iron Curtain, an arro- gant, unbeaten favorite, had been plunged into defeat by a team that represented freedom. Perhaps it was the tra- ditional reaction that accompanies victory for the underdog, But whatever political significance may have attached to the result, it still was a tremendous tribute to the deep- rooted appeal of sport. Here are the West Germans and the Hungarians, both practically sitting on the H-bomb. Whatever their political philosophies, these peoples have had a rough time for gen- erations back, For them, it has almost always been war, or threat of war. If anybody should be nervous, continental Europeans are the ones. Yet they declare a holiday with complete equanimity when a soccer team wins a critical game and there is dancing in the streets with the not -too -distant threat forgotten, temporarily at least, as sport enthusiasm chases away the nightmare of an uncertain future. Your comments and suggestions for this column will be wekonted by Elmer Ferguson, c/o Calvert House, 431 Yong. 51., Toronto. Calvett DISTILLERS LIMITED AMHERSTBURO, ONTARIO Hockey Should Be Peaceful Now An era of hockey Is about to end, Feb, 1 of this year will be the date. At that time J. Conn Smythe will retire as president and managing director of the Toronto Maple Leafs, He was preceded in retirement on Sept. 30 by Arthur H. Ross, vice- president and general manager of the Boston Brdins, They were next to the last of the old guard of hockey. In the early days of the Na- tional Hockey League there were many other dominating in- dividuals such as Col, John S. Hammond and Lester Patrick of the Rangers; James Norris, Sr., and Jack Adams of the Detroit Red Wings; Charles F. Adams of the Bruins; Jimmy Strachan of the defunct Montreal Mar- oons; Leo Dandurand and Cecil Hart of Canadiens; Maj, Fred- eric McLaughlin of the Chicago Black Hawks; William V. Dwyer of the New York Americans and Tom Gorman, leader at times, of the Americans, Maroons and Chicago, writes Webb Morse, Sports Editor of The Christian Science Monitor, When Smythe retires only Jack Adams, general manager of the Red Wings of Detroit will remain. Thee era will be at an end because there will be none Left to fight with Adams. It used to be that the above- mentioned names were as prom- inent in the hockey news as the gamesand players. It took very little, and some- times only imagination, for one or all of these esteemed gentle- men to drop their cloaks of pro- priety and verbally storm . the bastions of hockey dignity, Feuds, real and fancied, were frequently invented against one • another to make headlines in press and radio, - Probably the greatest purvey- ors of public attention were Ross and Smythe, generally be- tween the two. • Not far: behind in the art of commanding, not- ice were Charley Adams, CoI- onel Hammond, Lester Patrick, Major McLaughlin, Tommy Gor- man and:Cecil Hart. • One needed but a question or a hint to anyone of these hard- ened old characters and they would fire away at anyone or all of their fellow league mem- bers. For years the then league president, Frank Calder, a mild- mannered little man, was, con- stantly in the role of peace- maker.. It ,reached such heights in later years that 'owners and members of the board of gov-' ernors were warned to call a halt or face imposing fines. Possibly the most spectacular stunt of the times was the night Conn Smythe appeared at a Bruins -Leafs hockey 'game Boston Garden arrayed in full dress of top hat and tails, An- other was the night in Ottawa at a play-off game a Bruin play- er, Billy Coutu, assaulted Ref- eree "Jerry LaFlamme after the game and was barred from hockey for life, but later 're- ports claimed Charley . Adams,. Bruin owner, as 'the attacker. Most of the times, however, the attacks were only verbal and of a personal nature for the pur- pose of inciting feuds in print; No question about the response ' either, for the papers and radio commentators ate .it up and box. offices were kept busy filling the demand for tickets to the games. I don't believe too many hockey fans or any of the press really, adopted many of the feuds as bona fide, but they certainly - contributed to the .popularity of the sport at the time; . In those days hockey games RIDE FREE FOR THREE—Salesman-inventor W, Nazenburg, right, 'h all, wound,'up over his clockwork motor for bicycles as he explains the device to a. prospective customer in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Falling in line with the milk -drinking premier, two Parisians hold out cups to bar milkmaid Luctenne •LeGrand, right, who works the "tap," at Boston, New York and Chi- cago were sell-outs night after night, I doubt that any attempts to resume those , paper feuds would attract a single ticket buyer, but they were lively in pose. With Ross gone and Smythe going, Jack Adams has no pre left to fight with and hockey will have to rely on just plain hockey for public attention. Why We Call It "Portland" Portland cement is the most important part of every con- crete sidewalk, highway, bridge, building—anything you see that is made of concrete. When It is 'soaked with water and allowed to dry, cement becomes 'as hard as sure stone. Mixed with sand and water, it becomes the mortar with which' bricks are sealed together in building con- struction. Mixed with .water, sand, and gravel or rock, it be- comes tough and ,durable con- crete, The cement was invented in 1824 by an Englishman, John Aspdin, who burned limestone and clay together and ground up the mixture into a fine ,powder. He called it Portland cement be- cause, when' hard, it resembles a type of building stone found. on Portland Isle, England, Beauty Contest For Bald -Heads Everybody living in a pleas- ant little town in Northern Italy stopped work one sunny morn- ing recently to watch a number of the local workers converging on a restaurant in the main street. Every member of the proces- sion was a Haan and each wore his best Sunday suit and a black ,top hat, Into the restaurant they filed and sat salemnly at a long table, still wearing their hats. A bell was rung for silence. Then, at a given signal, the men slowly lifted their hats, and laid them on the table, each re- vealing a shining bald head. The 'men were there so that a jury could decide who possessed the town's finest and most attractive bald head. The winner of the $300 prize proved to be Signor Pastegglio, a roadsweeper,•whose success was very popular with the admiring spectators. But he only won by a hair—the little hair which one of the jury had spotted growing over the left • ear of his nearest rival! The runner-up was awarded a conso- lation prizewhich he promptly handed to his wife, saying: "You can find better use for it than I can," It was a comb, .. PLAIN HORSE SENSE.. By P. (BOB) The Ontario 'Milk Producers Coordinating" Board has made a • recommendation 'to the different ' dairy. groups in the province to levy 1.1 per cent of the factory . price of: their production, These contributions are tq be paid -into a fund to be used for the stabili- zation of producer prices. The main purpose of this fund will be the subsidization of ex- ports which have to be sold' a- broad at lower than home mar- ket prices, Also included in the 11 per cent deduction will be the June set-aside for the Dairy . Farmers of Canada Advertising Fund and an unspecified share for a re- search fund, The amount so collected is es- timated at somewhat more than. • two million dollars per year, As the, Coordinating Board does not have powers to make decisions binding the different producer groups, the recommen- dation will come before the con- ventions of the producer organ- izations for discussion and con- sideration. Ministerial Approval Needed If. the scheme is accepted by .the producers in full or in part, the matter is referred back to the Coordinating Board and each association ' has to petition the Mlhister of Agriculture for its approval, It is then in the dis- cretion of the minister to bring the scheme before the cabinet to have it enacted by Order -in - Council, or if he considers it as not desirable or necessary to re- ject it. One association already has approved the plan, although leaving open the extent to which they will participate. `The' "others will 'discuss it within the next few weeks, - General Approval In view of the wide spread discontent of dairy farmers with prices arid -marketing conditions!, the plan should find general ap* , VON PILLS proval as a first step towards a more stable • and orderly market- ing of milk and milk products. Any discussion is likely to cen- ter around the extent of partic- ipation and amounts to be col- . Iected. All too often farmers are apt to be penny wise and pound foolish ' as the controversy that is raging, around the hog mark- eting scheme is proving, where a 20 cents per hog deduction is a bone of contention. Important Considerations Only by cooperating, individ- ually and collectively, can farm- ers prosper and assert their place in an economy which is ruled by Bigness, Being human we are all subject to errors and mistakes, but can learn and progress by experience, The recommendation of the Coordinating Board is sound In principle. It should be taken to the nationallevel though, lest Ontario carry the burden for the 'whole country and be- come a most lucrative market for the surpluses of the other nine provinces. , Lastly but not leastly an ex- planation is needed why all the important decisions rest with the provincial government if it does not contribute to the scheme. If Ontario farmers want to produce milk for sale abroad at lower prices and want to raise funds to spread the difference evenly over the group as a whole, the decision is theirs and not the government's. Let's beware of paternalism in government. * 61 * This colutnn welcomes criti- cism, "con'str'uctive or destruc- tive, and suggestions, wise or otherwise; it will endeavour to ,answer any questions, Address mail to Bob , Von Pilis, Whitby, Ont. ISSUE 2 — 1955. Invention Ideas and Their Origin - • There are countless gadgets and devices founded on simp- licity itself, Take the' crinkly hairpin, for example. The inventor who thought this one up, explains Professor A. M. Low in his enlightening • and interesting book "Thanks To In- ventors" was spurred to activity by his wife complaining of the number of hairpins lost by fall- ing out, His answer was a hair- pin with waves in the arms. It was only fifty -odd years ago that carpets were mechanically cleaned by beating. At the be- ginning of the century a new In- vention was introduced from America whereby a powerful blast of air blew dirt from the carpet into a container fitted above the nozzle. Some of the dust escaped the trap and set- tled back on the carpet. H, Cecil Booth watched the process, and then thought up a better idea. Why not reverse the procedure, — suck instead of blow? His completed vacuum cleaner, chiefly consisting of an electrically driven fan to induce a partial vacuum, was mounted on a van and driven round to houses, the hose being run out to rooms where the carpets were, Inventions can involve a great amount of thought and candle - burning; but it often happens that chance, too, brings some- thing out of the bag. Thomas Blanket watched an article come from his loom en- tirely different from what was expected of it, The weaving loom was at fault; but Blanket thought "this is not what we are trying to malce,'but for a differ- ent purpose it might be better than anything else." From thoughts sprang ac - tions; and the answer Was the blanket, High up on the list of pub- lic, benefactors is George Ste- phenson, the creator of Britain's railways, This brilliant engineer, although he did not originate the steam locomotive, used other inventions and improved them so completely as to make them peculiarly his own. Even in his early days, while he was being paid twopence a day for minding cattle, young Stephenson displayed his aptI- tude for construction, spending some of his, spare time in mak- ing minature mining engines. He knew that to get on he must be able to read and write, so for three nights a week, after doing a twelve-hour shift, he at- tended night -school at one pen- ny a night, On his nineteenth birthday, states John Rowland, in an inspiring and comprehen- sive biography, " George Ste- phenson" he could scrawl his name. Stephenson's first big chance to prove his worth came when a new pit was to be sunk at Killingworth, A great problem of the times was the difficulty of preventing water seeping into the workings, A pumping -engine designed by the engineer Smea- ton proved a failure. George's forthright opinion of the machine was such that the management asked if he could put matters right, "I could alter her and make her draw; in a week's time you would be at the bottom of that pit." He was given the job. At the end of the three days of concentrated labour the ma- chine — looking as if it had. been tied together with pieces of string — was ready to be started up, In two days the shaft was free of water; at the end of- the third day men were work- ing at the bottom in compara- tively dry conditions.

Speaking of existing ccndiLons he said ""1`hc value of livestock has gone dc.wn but expenses have increased. In 1052 three organizers of Farm Union came from the western provinces to the surrounding counties and organ- ized 40 local unions, and now there are 215 Farmers' Unions operating," In 1954 Mr. Cormack was invited to the west as guest speaker, which was the first time an Ontario union roan had been invited to the western pro- vinces, ' "Almost 50 percent of the farmers in the west are members of the union, but they want to reach out and make it a national union," he said. Mr. Cormack stated further. "There is an interprovincial Union Council„" and the first duty of the union is to educate farmers as to their own posi- tion in comparison to other ' groups, "The farmer is the only one whose in- come has been Sliding backward for the past three years," he claimed. "The farmers went back between 300 and 400 million dollars in 1954, But costs have increased "The farmer works late hours, As you drive along the country roads you will find barns lit up late in the ev- ening, at n time when 'Labor' has quit work several hours previously, but the fanner also has a big business Invest- ment in his farm and stock. "Ontario is lagging far behind. The chain stores tell the packers what they will pay, and the result is prices for hogs in Ontario dropped four dollars in two weeks because carloads of dressed pork from the west were shipped in." In a review of prices since 1919„ Mr. Cormack. said, "In 1019 the price of beef was $15 per hundred. Four years later It was less than half that, in 1933 it hit bottom at $1.80 per huin- crced, In 1951 it hit the top at $33.80. and two years later in 1953. it was $10,80 per hundred. No other busi- ness in Canada has suffered these fluctuations, "In 1953 the people of Canada ate 95 percent of the beef produced and only five percent was exported, and we also ale into our surplus approxi- mately thirty million pounds. Mr. Corrnack added; "If the law of supply and demand works, prices should have risen, but they didn't, be - rause of manipulation somewhere. "The supply of cold storage beef Is very low and there are not too many hogs in Canada today. The price th,. farmer receives for his produce today should compare to the prices he has to pay for what he has to buy. That is what we mean by 'Parity Prices.' The members of Parliament took their raise in salary of 50 percent when farm prices were on the backward) trend. We talk of our surpluses but if we have another bad year, there will be no surplusses of grain with grainaries filled to capacity in the western provinces. "Old Mother Nature took a hand in taking care of the surplus grain this year. In Saskatchewan, two-thirds .af the wheat crop rusted so badly that some of It will only be rated sixth grade wheat, and in Manitoba a lot of the "grain could •not be sown early be• cause of wet weather, and early frosts froze the grain before it matured." Following Mr. Corns ck's g remarks n discussion ensued, Mr. Cormack said, "Let us not complain about 'Labor' —we have too much in common, Wo are afraid of certain things btcause wo are ignorant of them, "Communism can only creep Into art organization through the laxity of its members," "Low prices cause surplusses, II two years ago two steers would pay the taxes an a farm, and it now takes 314 steers to pay the taxes on the same farm, then the farmer must produce an extra steer and a half to meet that particular obligation, which in turn creates a surplus." Several joined the union, and oth- ers signified their intention to do so, Mr. Lewis Whitfield expressed the rappreciation of those present to Mr. Cormack for his friendly and educa- tional address to which Mr, Cormack replied—"I am only calling on farm- ers to organize like other groups In order to take their place as others do."

We may not agree on whether it should be cooked rare, medium or well done, but over our pref. erence for beef itself there is no argument. So some hints about how to choose and cook it might not be amiss. • • • Shopping for roast beef. A good shopping point to remem- ber is that each of the 3 roast beef cuts from a rib section may be priced differently. There are seven ribs in a section (eight are included in some places). The first cut next to the loin— two or three ribs—is the most tender and usually priced ac- cordingly, The center cut is next. Last, the two large ribs next to the shoulder—these are the least tender but still good for roasting, Rib. roasts are found in the market in one of three forms; first, a standing rib roast with the full rib bone, measuring about 10" in length. Next is a standing rib roast with short ribs removed.( The short ends of the ribs are cut off, then cut again in serving size pieces for another dish.) In the third cut, the rib section may be boned, rolled and tied• For tender beef, look for dull red, lean meat The fat is creamy white, - with marbling streaks throughout the lean parts For best roasting select a piece of beef 4" high or with at least 2 ribs. For each serving allow / pound of a standing roast, or 1/4 pound of boned and rolled roast. How to roast beef. Place a standing rib roast, fat side up, in a shallow open roasting pan. The rib end makes its own rack. A rolled roast should be placed on one of the cut sides on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Wipe meat with a damp cloth, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast uncovered in a moder- ately low oven, 325° F. Follow this time guide: Pounds Rare Medium Standing 6 21/4 hrs. 21 hrs. Rib Roast 8 3 hrs. 31/2 hrs, Rolled 4 21/4 hrs, 21/ hrs. Rib Roast 6 3 hrs. VA hrs. If a ineat-, thermometer is used, insert it in the center of roast so it does not touch bone, Roast beef until meat thermometer registers degrees of doneness de- sired -140° F. for rare, 160° F. for medium. 170° F. for well- done beef. To serve. Place standing rib roast on a platter on the largest flat surface, ribs crosswise. A rolled rib roast also has the cut side up on a platter for easy carving. Trim the platter with water cress or other greens. Now make the gravy and serve in a very hot separate dish. Beef Gravy ... velvety brown, slightly thickened gravy for a roast of beef. 34 cup fat and drippings from. roast beef 1g cup all-purpose flour 2 cups water Salt and pepper Few drops bottled brown sauce or meat extract (optional) After roast is removed from baking pan, skin off excess fat reserving the Y4 cup drippings with some fat. Blend in flour; place pan over moderate heat Mai and add water gradually, stir- ring constantly, Continue until all browned drippings are loosened and dissolved, Continue cooking and stirring until gravy thickens. Add salt, • pepper, brown sauce or extract to suit your family, Serve in a separate dish along with the roast. Makes about 2 cups. If a deep brown gravy color is desired and there is not suf- ficient drippings to mako it so, do this; After flour is blended into fat, cook and stir over me• dium heat until flour turns car- amel color. Plate or Natural Gravy . actually meat served au jus has a gravy of the natural juices from the cut roast beef. When the supply is not generous. na- ture may be assisted by making a thin good sauce for people who prefer a plain, unthikened beef -juice gravy. 1 10q -ounce can beef consomme Drippings from roast beef Salt and pepper After roast is removed from baking pan, skim off some of the fat left in the pan; add con- somme to the remaining drip- pings. Heat and stir until brown drippings are loosened and mixed with consomme. Add salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and serve with roast. Makes about 1 cup. Franconia Potatoes... browned in pan with the beef for crisp crust. Wonderful potatoes to serve with a roast of beef. 8 medium white potatoes 1 quart boiling water 1 teaspoon salt Peel potatoes and simmer in boiling salted water 15 minutes; drain well, One hour before meat is done, arrange potatoes in roasting pan around meat, Turn 2 or 3 times and baste with drippings. If potatoes are not brown enough when meat is done, place under broiler a few minutes. iSprinkle with chopped parsley, arrange around meat on the platter, Makes 6 servings. Oven Browned Carrots and Onions . , . a tasty way to serve vegetables with a roast, Cook whole carrots 10 minutes, whole small onions 15 in boiling salted water. Drain; follow roasting di- rections for Franconia potatoes above. WORLD'S DEEPEST WOMAN A French midwife has just won the world's depth record for women.

She was the only woman in ,ac team of cave -explorers, some of whom went down as far as 2,950 feet. At 1,675 feet she set up "camp," In the dark, cold and humid cave, lit only by a few electric torches, she cooked meals for the team. An icy draught brought the temperature near freezing point, but she stayed in her under- ground camp for twelve hours.

"Look -In" Cartons Sell More Eggs Eggs packaged in window -type cartons outsell eggs in the con- ventional closed type by up to 40 per cent, according to recent U.S, tests. Prior studies had shown that nearly a fifth of egg purchasers in supermarkets handled cartons b e f ore buying — camparing weights, feeling the tops, or ac- tually opening the carton in making their choice to buy, This, coupled with the trend towards the use of transparent contain- ers and packages for many other products, suggested that egg sales might be increased if customers were able to view the contents of • an egg carton, In the experiments "look -in" packages were designed with 25, 40 and 60 per cent of the cover consisting of cellulose film, These cartons had considerably more window space than any other egg carton in current use, Each package was printed with the same brand name, color, size and grade of egg and was dis- played in supermarkets along with similar non -windowed car- tons, The position of each type of carton in the display was changed periodically to remove any effect of position on sales. The package with the most window surface was the most successful, exceeding sales of those in the non -windowed car- ton by 40 per cent, Even those with the least window surface sold 19 per cent more than the completely closed carton. Color also plays an important part in egg merchandising. It was found that white eggs.pack- aged in cartons with blue in- teriors increased sales, while brown eggs did best when dis- played against white back- grounds, Expert Advice On Safe Wester Driving Almost every driver feelsthat he is a "good" or "better than average" driver in winter wea- ther. Some special techniques which give this feeling of confidence when driving on ice or snow can be called good driving skills, but unfortunately many of them are tricks which may not always work or which have no factual basis, In an effort to get the right answers and eliminate guess work and misinformation, the National Safety Council's Committee on Winter Driving Hazards has spent years of re- search on• special • problems of safe winter driving. For driving practices under all kinds of winter conditions, the committee recommends six basic rules essential for safe winter driving. They are: 1. Accept your responsibility to do all in your power to drive without an accident, Don't blame the weatherman for an accident, Be prepared and meet the situation. 2. Get the "feel" of the road, Try brakes occasionally while driving slowly and away from traffic, Find out just how slip- pery the road is and adjust your speed to road and weather con- ditions. Remember, you can't stop on an icy dime! 3. Keep the windshield clear of snow and ice, fog and frost. Be sure . headlights, windshield wiper blades and defrosters are in top .condition. You have to see danger to avoid it. 4. Use tire chains and good tires, Don't rely on worn smooth tires. Use tire chains on snow and ice, They cut stopping dis- tances about half, give four to seven times more starting and climbing traction ability, But even with the 'help of chains, slower than normal speeds are a "must" on snow and ice. 5, Pump your brakes to slow down or stop, Jamming them on can lock the wheels and throw you into a dangerous skid. A little skidding can car- ry you a long way, 6, Follow at a safe distance. Keep well back of the vehicle ahead—give yourself room to atop. Remember, without tire chains, it takes three to 12 times as far to atop on snow and ice as on dry concrete, . . Winter adds three important factors to the usual year 'round driving hazards, They are: Reduced visibility, inadequate traction, and temperature changes. The factors of reduced visi- bility and inadequate traction are pretty obvious and are prob- ably.generally, recognized, Temperature, however, plays a much more important part on braking distances and fraction than most drivers realize, espec- ially on ice: For example, when you first remove an ice cube from the refrigerator, it is sticky to the touch and not too slippery, After a few minutes in a warm room, this same ice cube is so slippery it is difficult to hold. A similar situation faces the driver who -starts out on an icy road early in the morning while it's still quite cold, He finds . "pulling away" traction 'and stopping ability fairly good. Birt' as the sun comes out and the temperature , rises, he doesn't realize that the ice will become much more treacherous, When he finds ,he. stop in time to avoid . an accident, it's often too late, The action of ice in response to .temperature presents a real hazard to the unwary driver who doesn't continuously heed the caution to "get the feel of the road," How To Stop Tests show that braking dis- tances can be considerably re- duced by pumping ' brakes so they are alternately applied and completely released, This tech- nique also helps retain steering control—important since few car drivers realize that a sliding or spinning -wheel provides no di- rectional control whatsoever. On glare ice the pumping technique is one all drivers should use. It's . different, but not particularly difficult. It con- sists of a series of very rapid brake applications, making sure that brakes are fully applied for an instant and then completely released for an instant, The driver should do this just as rapidly as, he can. On packed snow and less slip- pery surfaces, the driver can usually feel the point at which the brakes lock and the wheels start sliding. On such surfaces, therefore, the preferred tech- nigae is for the driver to apply the brakes gently until he feels that the wheels are starting to slide and. then release them slightly. However, if he can- not get results, he should start the pumping technique at once. How To Start ' On snow- or Ice, start in second or high gear. This permits a smoother acceleration which will get you moving without sliding. And, letting the clutch out with a jam and spinning the wheels isn't good for tires or chains, A fluid clutch or an automatic transmission greatly helps in ac- c,elerating gently and smoothly. If your car has overdrive or is of the dual range type, leave it in "low range," It will handle steadier with less shifting, ' Start slowly and then steadily accelerate. Good drivers practice this in the summer as well as in the winter. Tire Chains Most drivers dislike the both- er of putting on tire chains but tests have shown tire chains cut braking distances in half on both snow and ice, With reinforced chains, traction to get going is increased about seven times over that possible with regular tires on ice, On packed snow, such chains outpull regular tires nearly four times, Reinforced tire chains (each link of the cross -chains is rein-* forced by projecting •teeth or cleats) are very effective on glare ice in reducing braking distances, opposing side, skids and increasing forward traction, as compared with regular chains. Particularly noticeable in these improved • chains is their much better resistance to side skid, Special Tires Leading tire manufacturers have been doing much work to improve tires so that they give better service the year around. In recent years they have pro- duced many special treads and winterizing treatments designed to increase traction on winter's snow and ice, These special tires serve a purpose under certain weather or road conditions, particularly when snow or slush is soft and not too deep—so that the tread can bear down and grip into the soft surface. , Inits numerous test projects on snow and ice, the National Safety Council's Committee on Winter Driving.., Hazards • has studied more than 25 treads and winterizing treatments specially designed for winter use: The conclusions are that a few of the winter tires reduce braking dis- tances somewhat and improve traction, particularly on soft snow. 'However, the overall . improvement of even the best tires tested is not great enough to warrant less care or precau- tion when driving on slippery surfaces. Considering the. haz- ards involved, drivers should al- so realize that a majority of the winter tires tested were poorer or little better, than regular tires. Slow Down Unfortunately, when some drivers find they have extra traction and stopping power, they may start driving" faster than they should. Repeated tests have shown in order to provide the salve stop- ping ability available on dry pavement at a speed of 50 miles an hour, speed on ice must not be higher than 25 miles an hour with. reinforced tire chains or 15 miles an hour with special win- ter tires. On hard packed snow, a speed of 35 mph with chains or 28 mph with special tires gives stopping ability equiva- lent to that at 50 miles an hour on dry pavement. Children dance with glee when the icy fingers of winter fasten round the windows of the home, For, to them, winter means ev- erything from ice skating to Santa Claus and a thousand other joyous things. But winter drivers do not share the child- ren's delight. To them, as to the traffic safety authorities, Jack Frost is no welcome guest in the .snow belt. They know that Jack Frost is a killer! Bees And Flowers In blossom time, day after day, honeybees forage from sun- rise to sunset, visiting the flow- ers. A honeybee collects nectar or pollen on one journey, never both at the same time. ' And though each flower in turn is plundered, the bee visits only one species at a time. The bee,. clad with many delicate bristles and hair-like processes, becom- es covered with the mealy pol- len of the flowers it visits and, entering flower after flower, leaves bits of pollen wherever it goes. These pollen grains are vitally important to the flowers,. for without them they would not be able to form their seeds. The part of the flower that creates the pollen is the anther —the stamen's tip. Before seeds can be formed, pollen must find its way to another part of the flower, called the stigma, The shifting of pollen from anther to stigma is called pollination, Some flowers are able' to do this work for themselves, without any outside help. This process is called self-pollination. In cross-pollination the pollen must be carried from one flower to another. Sometimes the wind carries it, sometimes beetles car- ry it, but very often, as you many have noticed ingardens, fields and meadows, pollen is carried fronj flower to flower by honeybees. This is the great service that bees render the flowers — full payment . fors all the sweet liquid they have gathered .from the nectaries and for every grain of pollen they have made into bee bread.

TllFARM FRONT kaussell A swine feeding trial recently completed at Lacombe ExperI' mental Station, Alta, indicates that the addition of alfalfa meal to the ration of market hogs not only improves carcass quality but may also reduce costs, re. ports J. G, Stothart. * • • A comparison was made of lots receiving no alfalfa, 6 per cent, 10 per cent, and 15 per cent alfalfa meal from weaning- to market weight, There was little effect from adding 5 per cent but the lots which received 10 and 15 per cent scored 76.6 and 78,5 in carcass score respective- ly, compared with 70.5 for the group which received no alfalfa meal, There was little or no dif- ference in feed efficiency or rate of gain in the first three groups, while the fourth which received 15 per cent alfalfa meal, used alightly more feed and took about 10 days more to go to market. All lots were self fed, • a' • The significance of these re- sults lies in the fact that better carcasses were produced on a cheaper ration. Alfalfa is avail-. able on many farms, and if it is of high quality -green and leafy -it can' readily be put through the hammer mill and added to, the ration for pigs, It is cheaper to produce than the grains and as the Lacombe results indicate, it can comprise up to 10 per cent of the ration with good results. a • • More and more hogs are be- ing self fed each year, and while this method of feeding saves la- bour, it can affect carcass qual- ity adversely. Short thick hogs are inclined to 1 become even shorter and thicker under self' feeding than they would under hand feeding. To put it tritely, some pigs with feed in front of them at all times are liable to "make pigs of themselves". • • • Proper rations will correct this, A combination of oats, barley, and wheat, a protein• mineral supplement, and 10 per cent alfalfa meal makes a good ration for self feeding. • %a a Alfalfa is also an excellent feed for sows. It can be fed in Last Of The Ciippors-The tower- ing stern of the Cutty Sark, last of the colorful clipper ships of the , last century, dwarfs the workers giving her a preliminary • inspection In London, England.

The meat is no effort to prepare and carving is a joy, For a dinner with a festive air, start by serving glasses of chilled fruit juice in the living room, with crackers and a choice of cheese or Braunschweiger sausage spreads, Keep the ham platter simple, with only a garnish o1 green parsley. That makes carving easy, Have a side serving dish of pears tinted red or green, Fill with cream cheese, or apples poached in red cinnamon -candy syrup, until they're a brilliant hue. Ham and sweet potatoes are a natural twosome, Follow tradition and serve the sweet potatoes mashed, in a fluffy, golden mound, topped with melted butter. A green vegetable such as broccoli or Brussels sprouts is a fine -flavored accompaniment. For salad, serve individual jellied fruit molds in red or green hue. Top with a wreath of creamy salad dressing, Hot rolls and butter complete this easily prepared main course. Dessert probably is traditional at your house. . If the family does not demand hearty dishes, make dessert a handsome fruit - and -cheese tray, with thin slices of fruitcake for those who still have room"for nibbling, Pass salted nuts and coffee, Lime Celery -Apple Molds Dissolve 1 package lime -flavored gelatin in 1 cup boiling water. Add 1 cup cold water, Cool until partially set. Add 1 cup chopped, pared apple; 1 cup chopped celery and 1 cup chopped walnuts. Pour into 6 molds, Chill until firm, Cranberry -and -Orange Relish Molds Dissolve 1 package raspberry -flavored gelatin in 1 cup boiling water. Add 1 cup cold water, Cool until partially set, Grind together 2 cups cranberries and the pulp and peel of 1 large the form of hay, available to the sows in a rack all winter, or it can be ground and mixed with the grain ration. • * a ODDS AND ENDS Increases in yields of potatoes, clover hay and timothy hay by about 75 per cent, and barley by 25 per cent have been secured at the Charlottetown Experi- mental Station through the use of seaweed as manure, The bene- ficial effect of seaweed in in- creasing yields was nearly as good as for barnyard manure applied at 20 tons per acre. a a • For several weeks last fall top grades of cattle, that is Choice and Good, were in keen demand and selling at strong prices. Al- though there has been no sharp. drop in the price of the lower grade the spread between the top gade and the bottom grade has been wider than usual, Part of the reason lies in, the fact that the, totaI numbers of Red and Blue Brand carcasses In the inspected kill has been compar- atively light, For the first seven months of last year the average number of Reds and ,Blues com- bined was slightly over 11,000 weekly. For the five weeks end- ing October 31st the average was only slightly over 8,000, The de- mand for Red and Blue Brand beef remains about constant, • • a • Over 2,000 Western range ewes, 5 to 6 years of . age have been moved into Ontario and Western Quebec this fall at prices ranging from' $15 to $17 delivered. The number taken per farmer ranges from 25 to 50 head though an Owen Sound farmer has taken 600 and was looking for another 500. These ewes are good for, about • 3 lamb crops and ,Cheviot, Suffolk or Hampshire rams are the usual breeds used on them, • • •• • An excellent record of the performance of Selkirk wheat under the rust conditions that prevailed this year comes from Felfort, Sask.

Chill until firm, Tired?-Honri Hoppenot, French ambassador to the United Na- tions, covers up a yawn during a . session of the UN In New York, The UN Political Commit- tee was 'carrying on a debate on the Cyprus Issue. Life on Venus Venus, most brilliant ..and beautiful of the planets, is stir - rounded by such a thick layer of clouds that we have never yet been able to see what goes on beneath F them, If there are creatures living on Venus, it is probable that they have never seen the sun or the stars, but ' live perpetually in a cloudy world, in twilight almost, under that heavy layer of atmosphere, No one knows what the clouds of Venus are composed of. It seems improbablethat they can be made of water, for no trace of water vapor has yet been found , in the analysis of light reflected' from them, and life as we know it can not exist with- out water. One modern authority, Wildt, has suggested that this cloud layer may be composed of formaldehyde. However, below the clouds which we are • able to see,' the atmosphere of Venus may- be quite different, and be- cause of this uncertainty about the lower 'atmosphere of Venus we can 'not rule out the possi- bility of life there, Travelling Seeds Many seeds or fruits have wings or sails that cause them to be carried by the wind. Trees that use this method include the pine, elm, maple catalpa and ailanthus, Dandelion, milkweed and lettuce seeds sail long dis- tances, wafted by the breeze on delicate parachutes composed of a crown of silky hairs. In the tumbleweeds the whole pint breaks off from the roots when it stops growing, The winged - pigweed and Russian thistle, for example, go bounc- ing and bounding . before the wind, scattering `seeds as they go, Old witch grass sometimes breaks away from its roots in one piece, but more often breaks into fragments, each of which dances along with every gust of . wind, scattering its seeds hither and thither, Other plants disturbed by the wind include those with plume - like fruits, such as clematis and some anemones. • Balloon=like fruits, such as those of the ground cherry. and hop horn- beam, have an inflated mem- branous covering full'of air. This allows the wind to carry the fruit; tossing the balloon along the ground and scattering its seeds as it breaks up. The dust -like seeds of orchids are the smallest of all seeds. It is believed that the wind carries them the greatest distances even though they have no special fly- ing equipment such as wings, parachutes or balloons. Many seeds and fruits are great water -travelers, for those that are lighter than water are able to float, Fruits of such water -plants as arrowhead and bur reed have prominent air - chambers that help them on their voyage. Coconuts can float for many miles. Most of the seeds and fruits that travel by air can float for some time if they fall into the water. Heavy rains and floods that cover the land also help many seeds to new destinations, even though the seeds are not specially suit- ed.for a sailor's life, Many seeds might be stay-at- homes were it not for the serv- ices of the birds that give them transportation, Birds and other animals are especially tempted by fleshy, pleasantly flavored fruits, and after finishing their feast they may drop and scatter/ the seeds, Smaller seeds may pass undigested and uninjured through the bird's digestive tract, Some of the most useful birds for seed dispersal are the blackbirds, thrushes and robins. Such plants as wild -cherry trees, red cedar, blackberry and wild • strawberry supply song birds' with free lunch; the birds in • return transport ' the plants' seeds. Mistletoe, which lives as a parasite on' trees, is sown in a peculiar way,„ Birds eat the white berries, then wipe their bills, on tree branches to get rid of the sticky seeds. The seeds remain glued to the branch until spring, when they sprout and send roots into the tree branch and produce a few weak -looking, pale green' leaves, Squirrels eat a great many nuts, but they bury some they 'never come back for; and so they plant many trees -.- oaks, hickories, walnuts and pines, The' smallest seed carriers are ants, which actually play an im- portant part In dispersing many. ' small seeds. When you walk through tall weeds, especially in fall and winter, you notice that many seeds are expert hitchhikers. Your overcoat and stockings may be covered with seeds or sticky fruits and you may have to take your shoes off to get rid•of needlelIke seeds that have worked their. way inside, When cockleburs with their numerous long hooks get into a person's or animal hair you frequently hhve to cut he hair to get rid of the burs. A, great many seeds of pesti- ferous , weeds are unintentional- ly distributed by man. They ride by automobiletruck, wagon and even by airplane, and the weed seeds frequently find their way into grass and crop -seed mixtures.. Other seeds and fruits with ingenious hooks and spines are those , of bur marigold, sweet cicely, burdock, bur grass, bed- straw, agrimony and lespedeza, Some ripe ,fruits burst open with enough violence to throw the seeds quite a distance. The pods of peas and beans split and twist when fully dry, tossing the seeds away from the parent plant, The ' jewel weeds so abundant in swamps over most of the United' States and Can- ada have a heir -trigger arrange- ment that causes them to throw their seeds violently when ,touched, Theircommonname of touch-me-not and the scientific name Impatiens refer to this fact. Other plants that hurl away their seeds include violets, wild geranium, and castor-oil plant. Witch -hazel seeds are shot out for several yards. In one western mistletoe the ripe fruits explode, ' ejecting the seeds. Many weeds and wild flowers have dry fruits that re- lease some of their seeds when-. ever the wind blows, • Poppy capsules are constructed some- thing like a salt cellar, flinging out a•feW seeds to every strong breeze. HowCanl? By ROBERTA LEE Q. How can I make a tonic for dry hair? A, Mix 3 ounces of cocoanut oil, 4,4 drams tincture of nux vomica, 2 ounces Jamaica bay rum, and 40 drops oil of berga- mot, Melt the two oils together over gentle heat, cool, and add the nux vomica and then the bay rum, stirring constantly un- til well mixed. Q. How can I soften hard paint? A. Paint that is hard and use- less can be softened by pouring an inch of turpentine on top of it and letting it stand for a few days. Then stir with a stick un- tIl soft, Q. How can I keep cheese from crumbling when cutting it? A. Before attempting to slice very rich cheese heat the knife in boiling water. This usually ' prevents breaking or crumbling. Q. How can I produce the effect of writing having been done in silver? A. Mix one ounce of the finest pewter or block tin, and two ounces of • quicksilver together until both become fluid, Then grind it with gum water. Use as you would ink, Q. How can I exterminate earth worms from potted plants? A, By thrusting unburnt sul- phur matches, heads down, into the earth around the plants, Use from two to six matches, de- pending upon the size of the plant. Q. How can I remove iodine from cotton or linen? A. Make a paste of starch and cold water and spread• over the stain, Let stand until dry; then brush off, Q. How can I treat a boy's shoes if he refuses to wear over- shoes? A. Give the soles of the shoes about ,three coats of shellac. This not only prevents the water from going through the leather, but will add life to the shoes. Q. How can I remove fruit stains from linen? A. If a little pure glycerine is applied to fruit stains on the table linen the spots will be re- moved. Apply before sending to the laundry, Q. How can I best replace buttons that have torn off chit. dren's garments? A, Sew the button securely to a small square of strong tape. Push the button through the hole, leaving the new square on the wrong side of4 the garment.

Matthew 16;13-17; John 4:8-14, Memory Selection: I am the way, the truth, and the life; ne man cometh unto the Father but by me. John 14:6. The question Christ put to his disciples faces us all. "But whom say ye that I am?" To some he is the Great Teacher. To others he was a sinless mar- tyr. To still others he was di- vine as are all men, but possess- ing In much larger measure the divine nature of God than any who preceded him or who foll- owed him, Some clergymen re- fer to him as Saviour, but with- out any thought of regarding his crucifixion as the atonement for the sin of mankind. They think his example is to be foll- owed, but that to worship him as God is sheer idolatry, Oth- ers regard him as a great social reformer far ahead of his time. A college professor in the 'course of his lecture, assured the class that' belief 'in the virgin birth of Christ was not essen- tial, that it was merely a mat- ter of individual choice. One young man arose and asked, "If the virgin birth of Christ is not accepted, what is the alterna- tive? Was not Christ then con- ceived in illegitimacy?" The professor became angry, tried to explain and defend his posi- tion, but logic was against him. He had to accept one or the oth- er of the alternatives. Peter said, "Thou are the Christ, the Son of the living God," Jesus replied, "- • - flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven," It comes as a di- vine revelation to us all, The next step is to accept him as our Lord. It is sheer mockery to call him the Son of God and yet disobey, his com- mandments. If we are to re- ceive benefit we must say, "King of my life I crown thee, now.' Then we must tell others that he can be Lord of their lives, too. "There Is none other name un- der heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." Acts 4:12. Pig Iron This odd name is given to iron that has lust come from the blast furnace, before it has gone through any of the refining and hardening process that trans- form the metal into steel. In this state, it is very crude iron, only one step removed from the earth from which it was taken as ore. The term "pig" is an old expression in the industry and came from the sand molds into which, the streaming, Molten iron was poured. As the liquid iron poured from the furnace, it ran into. a .central trough or runner and then into small molds arranged on each side of the trough., The central runner was called the sow and the whole was thought to resemble' a family of pigs.

P. -Chaffee, have expressed deepest appreciation for the many donations of clothing, gifts of money, fowl and food parcels, made to the Society during the Christ- mas season, The Society's offices, lo• cated at Goderich, became a veritable Santa Claus workshop, as the staff, as- sisted by Board members and volunteer helpers, sorted, wrapped, and deliver- ed the parcels to all corners of the county, Many cash donations were nlgo received, and the money spent on special gifts, food baskets, and other needed items, Without the open-heart- ed generosity of individuals and or- ganizations. at this time, it would be impossible to carry on the extensive spreading of good will which brings happiness to so many children. A happy event again this year was the RCAF party at the Radio School, Clinton, when fifty appreciative chil- dren from the different parts of the county were guests of the RCAF. They were treated to a wonderful afternoon, and were sent home with beautiful' gifts, Several' organizations asked for the names of families or children who would welcome gifts of food, at Christ -1 mas, and then delivered turkeys, blan- kets, groceries and boxes of gifts to' these homes.
