Bert pointed out to these members the im- portance of the Lions Club in their lives and expressed his hope that they would be active and worthwhile mem- bers, .He further stated that they would oral§ get out of it what they put into it. The three new members M- etalled were; Cliff Walsh, Ed Watso,r and Doug Whitmore. (Lion President, Walter Buttell, officially twelcomed them into the club by pinning the Lions pins on their lapel. It• was announced by the president that more new members would be joining at our next meeting. The Club decided to sponsor a var- iety show in May and appointed the fund raising conunittce to look after arrangements. The executive were asked to meet at the Manorial hall an Wednesday, March 10, at 7.45 p.m, to attend a zone meeting in Wingham. Egg Prices On The Move Again (By J. Carl Hemingway) Egg prices seem to be on the »move again. First up, then down. Why? It was forecast at the first of the yeat that exports to the U. S. would fall off and that egg prices would be at the floor early in the year and would con- tinue there for many months, They told us that production would be up and altogether the prospects for eggs was not good. A short time ago the price started up and I believe was, for one day last week, 40c fca' A large. Then down to 39c and now 40c. In looking at the Poultry Products Market Report 1 find that to date, 10,18 we have exported to Venezuela 113,500 thirty doz. cases. To date 1957, 0,220 cases. Why the huge increase? Coul•t we have Iliad this market last year? Will we have this market next year? How mirny ether countries would buy our eggs Who is selling these eggs to Venezuela? Who is or should be book- Vng for other markets? It seems to me that the producer has little or no information on these questions. I can't see any great in- centive for the trade to take on thls type of work. Price to the producer has very little if any affect on the pro• fits to the trade so why should they put time, effort and money. into develop• Ing markets ihr the benefit of the pro- ducer?

A. met at the home of Mrs. F. Tyreman on Tuesday, March llth. The meeting was Lepened by singing a hymn. The scripture was read by Mrs, A. Grant Mrs. Higgins led in prayer and gave the theme. An auction sale of miscellaneous articles was held with Airs, Ann Sundercocx as auctioneer. The next •meeting is to be held at the home of Mrs. Charles Johnston. The meeting was broug!it to a close by singing hymn 180. Lunch was served by the hostess assisted by Mrs, C, Higgins and Mr,. A. Grant. The Important Choice Monday, March 31 The setting for the federal electron rat the end of this month is almost complete, We have »had many op- portunities to bear and read the plat- forms ,of the various candidates ono the parties they represent. Now, we have the responsibility of deciding which one we will support and then making sure that on Monday, March 31, we go to the •polls and vote fur that choice, Not long ago a prominent lawyct, who was disappointed with the choice his political party hath made for a can- didate, said 'that rather t'lan support his party's candidate he »would not vote on election day. Obviously, lr many Canadians held this attitume democracy would be a very frail ve- hicle. Dovot` on to political party ;must never be so firm ti:mal its followers cannot turn against It if they feel Its choice of candidate or its choice or policy is wrong. The rearm we be- lieve in free dlections is not because we must stand by a particular party Through thick or thin, but rather so we can vote for the 'party and individ- ual we think is best equipped to gov- ern our nation. Today, across Canada, some 800 con- testants are busy wooing some 9 mil- lion voters In 265 constituencies. From region to region the course of the el- ection is fallowing different issues, but generally, speaking Canadians ap- pear to be very interested in what their candidates are doing and saying. If the general interest holds until el- ection day it seems likely that from 70 to 80 percent of the eligible voters will register their opinion on March. 31. ' In turn this means that from 20 to 30 of the voters of the nation will fail to vote on election day, constituencies this group In mmany of voters would be more than enough to change election if they had that they can exert some oontrol over marketing and thereby get the infor- mation .on production and markets that is so necessary to returning to the faemer n reasonable price, The Hoe Producers Marketing Ag - ,,i( that the 4nformati+on tliey 'are axle to get • ,through their or- ganization is their greatest strength In bargaining for a satisfactory price for the producer.

In answer to some of as president, Martin Boon, Vice-Presi- ,,the questions asked Mr. Brady replied, 'dent and J: e Hunking, secretary. Blyth''s geographical set up is such, it would be only common sense to merge with Wingham. 1f the merger is com- pleted it will become effective almost immediately, probably in March. Milk testing will for the present be done in Blyth. The duties and responsibilities ;of the local board of directors will be more unportant than ever, and their 'reermmendations will be considered and welcomed and their job will be financing and membership. The price paid for milk will be uniform through- out the zone with the price paid sub- ject to the milk producers board. Unit holders in the present set up, 10110 are not producers, will be allowed to apply !the am?unt of their holding to deben- tures in the merger, B1rth Co -Op president, George Pow- ell, rcari the proposed agreement and called for the 'vote with the following result: 'There was 63 votes cast, 59 vot- ed yes and 4 no. Mr. Russell Bradford, presently of St. Marys, the new field man for the Milk Industry Board, successor fon: Lorne Schenck, or Alilverton, spoke, The following three directors were elected to fill the vacancy caused by the usual retirement of three directors each year, Martin Baan, Joe Hunking, \Vm. Dalrymple, the other directors f re, George Powe11, Kenneth Taylor, George Watt and Ted Bell, These win be the directors for Blyth Co -Op until the awalgamation is completed and will then act as an advisory board.

Clarke One of our former farni'neigh- bours phoned me the oner day and sald — "You should be glad you are not on the farm right now — you• would never have got out of your lane for the drifts. And, because of the wind, it has been so cold around here that Mary, (another neighbour), has even been borrowing blan- kets!" We can believe it. We can we'l remember what drifting snow could do to our long lane at Ginger Farm. And we know how impossible it was to heat the house with a high wind blowing. We certainty do feel thankful we are living in a more sheltered area. But now the pattern of our family life has taken a strange twist. Ever since they have been married Bob and Joy have bear living at Oakville — just ten miles from here: Sometimes Bob was working at Oakville, some- times at Cooksville, wherever he happened to be needed most. Now he won't be working at either plant — but at Milton, only a short distance from Ginger Farm, and for a different company. Friends are now think- ing we shall regret having lett the district. That is not so, but we are glad Bob is moving back, that will give us a better oppor- tunity' of keeping in touch with the old familiar places, of whic) we have many fond memories. At Oakville we had no interest other than to visit Bob and Joy. At Milton we can watch the progress of Highway 901 and see just what happens to the old farm. it will be wonderful for us and Bob will enjoy being back at his old haunts and with his friends and schoolmates. Strangely enough he starts his new job on his son's first birth- day, There has also been excitement in daughter's family. Jerry, at Orn months, has cut his first tooth! They were all here on Saturday and I'm telling you the dust flies when Dave and Eddie start charging around. Dave was feeling quite proud — he had been to the dentist for the first time and was tltirillcd. Well, so much tor our own little affairs — important to us but not of world-shaking signi- ficance. But there was an item of news last week that may he important to all of us at some time or other, directly or indi- rectly. And thank goodness it had nothing 'to do with atom bombs, guided missiles or other weapons capable of destroying mankind. No, this was just the opposite — a serum that may save the lives of millions of people. I am referring to the anti -clot serum to be used in cases of brain haemorr}oge or thrombosis. Used as an injec- lion it goes to work Immediately, dissolves the blood clot and gives the patient a good chance to recover. It is a wonderful piece of news; reassuring to the thou- sands of people suffering from high blood pressure — which, Incidentally Includes myself, Of course we have to remember that in some cases an unfor- tunate person may be strittjpet quite suddenly and be beyond help before a doctor can even be called. The serum canna restore life, but if 1 interpret its uses correctly it can save lives if a doctor reaches a pa. tient before it is too late. What an age we live in. On the one hand destructive forces building up almost everywhere; on the other hand medical s'cience continually making dis- coveries to relieve suffering and prolong life. Discoveries that pertain to animal as well as human life. Years ago if a cow got milk -fever there was little chance of her recovery, Now the "vet" comes along, gives • Bossie a shot of penicillin and before you know it she's up on her feet again. The same goes for a calf with "the scours", In years gone by many a poor little calf died if home remedies failed to bring about a cure. Now there are anti -biotics for this and that and a calf has little option ex- cept to grow and thrive. Thank goodness, in the case of a male, he doesn't know that he niay later appear tis veal cutlets on somebody's dinner table. The female has a better time. She is often allowed to mature and produce her off -spring year after year. She may know the joys of motherhood by having her ca:f stay with her. On the other hand she may never see her baby as the calf may be taken away from her directly it is born( and fed by hand. At Ginger Farin it was sometimes done one way, sometimes the other, depending upon how badly we needed the extra milk. It was always a great grief to me when Bossie WS not allowed to keep her self. And the poor little calf — tytver to feel the caressing mother -tongue licking her head and ears.

It's one chance in four that you were sitting in a car when you popped the question, At least, that is what Dr, Paul Popenoe thinks following a study of over 1,000 marriage proposal, The modern young man is most unromantic, In the olden days he would fall on his knee, look rapturously into his girl's eyes and implore her to be his bride. Today, according to Dr, Popen- oe, he wanders window-shopping with her and while they stare a* furniture in a showroom window he is as likely as not to say. "How's about you and me fixing up a little love nest?" Dr. Popenoe, as head of the Los Angeles, Institute of Family Relations, studied 1,181 marriage proposals and found that 25 per cent were made in motor cars while the couple were parked somewhere. Proposals made in the girl's home came close to motor car proposals with a total of 23 per cent, while proposals on the street, in restaurants, parks and in other public places accounted for 20 per cent of the total. Holiday time is not quite so dangerous for the bachelor as some people believe for only 13 per cent of the proposals ana- lysed by Dr, Popenoe were made while on holiday. _ Parties, dinners and dances may be places where romantic attachments are made but cer- tainly they are not conducive to marital ties, for only I0 per cent of all marriage proposals were made at such events. Did you send your proposal by wire or. letter? 1f you did you fall into a class by yourself for the modern male is too bash- ful to write or wire—only 6 per cent of the total proposed in this way. The odd -man -out who proposes while descending by parachute or while prodding a lion in a cage is a rarity, for only 3 per cent of the total number of pro— posals analysed were unusual, l;ke the couple who met recently and went roller skating, The young man, holding the girl's hand and rapturously looking into her eyes, gave her an en- gagement ring as they skated, To cap that, they were married as they skated around an arena with a parson on rollers skating alongside them, A PiONEER PHYSICIST James Clerk -Maxwell, Scot- tish physicist who died in 1879, was the first professor of experi- mental physics at Cambridge.

Is it correct to write a note wishing a girl happiness after you have read the announce- ment of her engagement in the newspaper? A. Yes; 'a brief, but sincere, note is in very good taste, Q.

Drawn from the mold that grows on bread, it ban be used safely In the severest heart and stroke cases to the preven- tion of much long-term damage. In ten years of experimenting with animals and finally with 35 humans, Dr. Mario Stefanini discovered that the extract dis- solves proteins, which make up bloodclots. Its precise nature is not yet known, however, and it will probably not be available for use by general practitioners for another two years. For victims of congestive heart failure — the most common cause of death from heart mala- dies — Drs, Lous Leiter and .Tacob Grossman of New York's Montefiore Hospital have uncov- ered a new treatment which may offer a way to normal life ex- pectancy, The afflicted person's heart fails to pump enough blood to meet the body's oxygen re- quirements, To compensate, large quantities of fluids collect in the body tissues and are not carried off to the kidneys. The lungs and liver may become congested. Instead of "drowning in their own fluid," Drs. Grossman and Leiter said, congestive heart - failure patients now can be "dried out" by this therapy; (1) A low -salt diet (salt contributes to the "backing up" of fluid in the tissues); (2) the use of drugs c -ailed "diuretics," which in- crease the flow of urine and r'raw excess fluids — the most 'fTective being chlorothiazide (trade name, Diuril), and (3) r'licing an elastic bandage on the patient's swollen legs and ele- vating theist so that the fluid is squeezed from the limbs and car- red to his kidneys. The first chemical analysis of the patches on the inside of the arteries of patients with athero- sclerosis was describe1 by Drs. f'harles J. Umberger and Leo A. Dal Cortivo, biochemists in the New York City Medical Exam- iner's office. 'their intricate tests (if hardened material taken from The arteries of 55 men (between 26 and 50 years old) who had tiled of acute heart disease may upset current theories as to how rats in the diet contribute to hardening of the arteries and to eventual heart attacks. Contrary to their expectations, the scientists found that the ar- tery deposits they studied con- tained no fats at all, although it Looked and felt like fat. More than half of the artery patches was cholesterol, but in a differ- ent form than the ordinary cholesterol found in the blood tream, From these findings, Drs. Umberger and Dal Cortivo :tssume that changes so far un- known may take place in body cholesterol before it reaches the 7rteries. Their analyses also suggested that diets of unsatur- ated fats (such as vegetable oils) recommended to heart patients by many physicians may have no affect in preventing artery hard- ening, —From NEWSWEEK.

At least that's true for some stomach ulcer patients who will receive a gentle rocking on this X-ray examination table designed by General Electric. For some examinations of this disorder the patient is rolled and tilted in a variety of positions. This allows the radiologist to see the barium, swallowed by the patient, as it flows from one part of the stomach to the other. Sobering Facts About Fallout Into a Columbia University labor'ator'y regularly stream ship- ments of one of science's grim- mest raw materials for study: human bones. They come from the recently dead bodies at men, women and children all over the non-Communist world, including such outskirts as Chile, South Africa and Formosa. At Colum- bia's Lamont Geological Obser- vatory, in a project financed by the U.S. Atomic Energy Com- mission, they go under the scrut- iny of scientists who analyze the bones for strontium 90. Re- cently tate project's three scien- tists, Drs. Walter R. Eckelmann, J. Laurence Kulp and Arthur R. Schulert, made their second an- nual report. The bones told a sobering story of increasing amounts of radioactive fallout from nuclear -weapons tests. Strontium 90 is the most fear- ed of all the fallout isotopes. It has a long half-life (28 years), and the human body tends to mistake it for calcium, which it resembles chemically, and to build it into bone. As it disin- tegrates over the years, it may cause cancer by the effect of its radiation on tender living cells. Since their last year's report, said the scientists, the world - average content of strontium 90 in human bone has increased by about 30%, The increase in young children, whose bones are growing actively, was 50%. The highest values were 'found in North America, the lowest in the Southern Hemisphere. Young children have, propor- tionately, ten times more stron- tium 90 in their bones than adults, but so far the average is only about 1/150 of the MPC (Maximum Permissible Concen- tration) that was recommended by the National Academy of Sci- ences. The amoyynt will ,urely grow, say the scidntists, Even if no more weapons are tested, there may be enough strontium 90 in "the stratospheric reser- voir" to raise the strontium 90 in the bones of children in the Northeastern U.S. to as much as 4,3% 6f the MPC. If weapons testing continues at the same rate as the Last few years, the average for the entire population of the Northeastern U.S, will gradually climb to about 20% of the MPC by the year 2000. Not all people get the same amount. Some children had three times the average, and the variation in adults is seven times. Most of these figures are about city dwellers, and the scientists think that the variation in rural areas will he greater still. It is thus likely that if weapons tests continue, a good many un- fortunates may come dangerous- ly close to the Maximum Per- missible Concentration — which many scientists believe has been set far too high. — From TIME. Secret Hoards Thieves recently stole a quan- tity of money in notes, but the police were hot on their track and they did not have much time 'to hide it, so they stuffed it into some beer bottles which they hid under the front porch Many and various are the hiding places chosen by thieves — in the stuffin of a sofa, the bottom of a bird cage, and even in the shank of an old key, In one crook's house the police found a pot of soup simmering on the fire. It was a very rich soup —'there were a number of gold coins in it! A similar method led to the destruction of some documents which were never found. They were pulped and boiled up with the cattle feed. The other day a man was ar- rested in Wisconsin when a woman accused him of having stolen twenty dollars from her. He strenuously denied it, so the police took him to the station and searched him, but there was no sign of the money and he could not have got rid of it. He • was kept in custody while further inquiries tvtre . made. While he was waiting he was allowed to go to sleep, and dur- ing his slumbers his mouth fell open, displaying to the interested detectives n crumpled, sodden. twenty -dollar note!

Anyone with a string, of course, can plant per- fectly straight rows of petunias or roses or tulips but it takes an expert to make a garden like that look really attractive. The average person with average skill and an average lot is far better advised to stick to the simple, and in most cases, more interesting informal lay- out, In this, of course, along the straight walls of our house or the boundary fences, there will be no chance for weaving at the back, but by planting in clumps and beds of various widths and curving edges we get an informal appearance at the front. As a rule the bigger flowers and taller shrubbery go at the back but just to break the monotony we occasionally bring something forward. We also plant in groups of two or three to a dozen of each species depending upon size, rather than as single individual speci- mens. In the centre of almost any garden layout, no matter how small, will be a piece of lawn and around that we group flowers • and shrubbery. Rather than hide all the foundation line of the house, or all of an attractive wall or fence, we leave irregular spaces here and there between clumps of shrub- bery or beds of flowers. If the garden is a fair size, too, it is an excellent plan to arrange trees, shrubbery and taller flowers so that part of the lay- out is hidden and only revealed when the visitor moves along. If possible have a curving path than a straight one but make sure there is some reason for the curve even if you have to make one by planting a tree or a clump of shrubs. CULTIVA'1'ION Killing weeds is only one of the reasons for cultivation. The big gain is the improvement in the texture of the soil. Cultiva- tion Lets in air, breaks up the clay lumps, makes the soil more open so that it will absorb and hold more moisture. Even where there are no weeds, regular cultivation, say once a week, is advisable in most gardens up to the early part of July and longer if the weather turns un- usually dry because this work- ing of the top soil conserves the moisture. NO RUSH It is probably some age-old instinct which gives us the urge to get out and dig just as soon as the first spring day arrives. There is no harm in going ahead if we live in some very warm corner of Canada, but as a rule one should restrain the impulse until the weather really turn warn and the soil is fairly dry. Nothing is gained by rushing either cultivation or seeding and much can be lost. If the ground is the least bit muddy then all we do is mess up ourselves and implements and leave the ground in 'bad shape for any real working later on. And if we are so foolish as to plant tender things far ahead of time, then the frost will surely get them. All this does not mean, how- ever, that we should not risk a few things reasonably early provided the soil is fit to work. To determine that we can, if we want to be scientific, select a handful of soil squeeze lightly and then take off the pressure. If the. soil crumbles, it is ready to work. If, when we squeeze it into a ball it stays that way, or if it leaves our fingers all muddy, then we should forget about gardcninrr for that after- noon at least and go inside and read a book or seed catalogue.

Ing that the springs were dry- ing up on his land in New York State. Finally, he summoned diggers to sink a new well. Bill Newell, it seemed, fan- cied his prospects as water• diviner with the traditional hazel -rod and selected a likely spot. But, four feet down, the well -diggers struck something hard. Bill was away from hone at the time, trying to raise money to pay for the well at a hank In the nearest town. When he re- turned and saw the excited crowds milling round his farm stead, he began to run. "What's the matter?" he yell- ed, "Is the place on fire?" The lanes around Cardiff vil- lage were becoming more jam- med every minute with carriages bringing inquisitive newcomers. "Where is it?" they cried. "Where's the giant?" In the excavation begun by the well -diggers lay the grotesque, twisted figure of a man. It was bald and its r • features were of A cast. r .,,;Aned and brd vn after lying for long centuries in the earth, the limbs were contorted as if in agony. Strangest of all, it seemed to have been turned to stone,- yet the entire surface was needle -pitted as if by tiny pores. All around the open grave the crowds trampled and murmured, One man with a tape measure proclaimed that the giant was ten feet four inches tall. Another exclaimed with wonder at deep grooves on the underside. as if worn by water flowing through the earth. On all sides was heard the wondering phrase . . "A petrified man!" It was not long before Bill Newell had roped the respassers back, declaring that on his own land he had a perfect right to do as he pleased. Within a few hours he had erected a canva, tent over the recumbent giant and began charging admission. The queues trailed over the fields and, after the first week- end, when the story burst in the newspapers, thousands began beating a path to the farm. Bill doubled his admission prices, while controversy flared. Delegations of clergymen visited the tent where, in the dim light, the enormous figure seemed even more impressive. Peonle spoke In solemn whis- pers. Was the monster indeed the petrified remains of a gant man? Was it an ancient idol? Was it vivid proof of the biblical text from Genisis, "There were giants in those days"? In their pulpits parsons he - ban saying that the Cardiff giant was indeed proof of the truth of the Bible. After visiting the site, bearded Professor Drater of the State Museum called it the most remarkable ancient object ever found in America. Yale professors and distin- guished chemists pronounced the giant a true fossil. The crowds Increased. Soon Newell had dis- carded his farnclothes and don- ned a frock -coat to lecture on his discovery. And if sometimes his eyes twinkled at some of the scien- tists' assertions, it was a secret smile only his wife noticed. Nearly every day Mrs. Newell went to the hank with the pre- vious day's takings. Casual con- versation with the hank man- ager elicited that the account was by no means as handsome as ;he takings would seem to imply. Virs. Newell noticed, too, how Sequently her husband was writing to his cousin, George !full, in Chicago. Her curiosity aroused, Mrs. lrewell steamed open two of the letters. Each contained a hand- some cheque. Though the Cardiff giant had been discovered on her husband's land, George Hull was getting the giant's share of the gate money. When winter came, this pro- portion increased, Hull openly paid his share for the giant to be moved to an exhibition hall in Syracuse. Here the crowds were greater than ever. And they grew to suffocation when a famous sculptor examined the petrified man and called a Press conference to denounce it as a fraud. A tiny chipping from the giant, he announced, had been anti. lysed. It was neither fossilized stone nor petrified flesh but plain gypsum, the mineral from which plaster of paris is made. By this time, the giant had netted $250,000 in cash. Hull and Newell were now known to be partners and a business syndicate bought out two-thirds of their interest for another $50,000. Yet the cash still kept coming. The Cardiff giant was taken to New York and placarded: "Is it the first man — or a first fake?" Then just down the road show- man Phineas Barnum opened a second. giant show as the only original Cardiff giant. A court case ensued. The Hull and Newell group tried to get an injunction to prevent Barnum from displaying a fake. Despite the fact that the famed scientist Emerson still called their giant "a bonafide petrified human be- ing," the application failed. Probing back into George Hull's movements, newspaper- men unmasked a journey he made for "new machinery" and learned of the huge block of gypsum he had acquired for a barrel of beer. By scanning transport records they traced this load to the Newell farm, Not far away, also enjoying his share of the profits, they discovered the stone -cutter who had so skilfully hewn the block of gypsum into the giant semb- lance of a man. Confronted with the evidence, Hull and Newell confessed their secret. A bath of sulphuric acid had tinged the gypsum ancient brown. Fine -pointed mallets had pitted the surface with minute pores. The "water grooves" had been deilberately cut in the fig- ure. Then it was buried and al- lowed to lie for three months before being discovered. Oddly enough, however, the confession merely perked up business. Both the Cardiff giant and his Barnum rival still at- tracted record crowds. And the crowds have been coming ever since. As recently as 1939, New York State erected road signs to the Cardiff giant's original grave. The Barnum figure is owned by an Iowa publishing family and regularly trotted out for State fairs. And in the Farmers' Mu- seum the "true" Cardiff giant is now on show free for the first time in his $2,000,000 career. Virgin Births It was discovered some time ago, to general astonishment, that virgin turkeys and chickens once in a while laid fertile eggs. Now the same source (U.S. Dept. of Agriculture Research Center at Beltsville, Md.) has found that an injection of fowl pox vaccine will increase the chances of this curious parthenogenesis. It still isn't known how these very rare virgin births take place, but the ability appears to be genetically transmitted, and can he increased by selective breeding. However, until the boys get some of the loose ends cleaned up, it seems likely that procrea- tion will be carried on by more old-fashioned methods. One of the fatherless young turks is seven months old. He has crook- ed toes, poor nerve co-ordina- tion and bad eyesight. - From Imperial Oilways.

Worces- Old-Time Strip Fish Returns The "strip flsh" industry is coning back to New England, they tell us, Just at first there won't be too many to, get ex- cited over this information be- cause most of us haven't the slightest idea what "strip flsh" is; or was, But those oldsters whd do remember how good it was are spreading the glad news and making a lot of folks anxi- ous to try it. A man from the little fishing town of Corea in the State of Maine is responsible for Its revival. "Strip fish" is an old New England dish. Back in the old days when Great -Grandmother sent you to the store for codfish, you didn't bring It back in glass jars or neatly packaged, as it is today. It came in one piece, "a jib - shaped critter, broad's a sail, three feet from tail to snout," and you carried it by the tail, In those days they split the fish, took out part of the backbone, salted it, then dried it In the sun. And when it was freshened, IP you could peel it off in nice, thick strips: hence "strip fish." Great -Grandfather sometimes used to like a strip raw, just as his great-grandsons like a piece of smoked salmon as an hors d'oeuvre today, Hunters and lumbermen often carried these strips in their pockets to eat with their lunches, Salt codfish may not seem a very poetic subject but Holman Day's poem called "A Cure for Homesickness" was very popu- lar, back 58 years ago, when it was published. Jt was about a State of Maine girl who married and went to Denver to live. She was so homesick that "she grew as thin as a belaying pin." But when she wrote her father that she couldn't stand Denver a minute longer, he knew just tershire sauce in saucepan over low heat, to just below boiling point (2 to 3 minutes). Add cheese and stir until thickened and smooth (1 to 2 minutes longer). Pour over corn mixture. Mix well. Place pork sausages on top of casserole. Bake in mo- derate oven (350° F.) about 20 to 25 minutes. , Variation: Add 1/2 cup chop• ped green pepper to cheese sauce when adding mustard and steak sauce. • what , to do, He remembered f how he had felt when he went to the World's Fair in '93 and he "Went to his ten -cord pile of cod and he pulled the biggest out, A jib -shaped critter, broad's a sail, three feet from tail to snout; And he pasted a sheet of postage stamps from snout clean down to the tail, Put on a'quick delivery stamp, • and sent the fish by mail." And, the poem goes on, that was all she needed, After she got a good whiff and a good taste of the fish (probably had "strip fish" for the next meal) she felt better, "and today a happy wife In a happy home, lives out in Denver, Colo," You won't find a recipe for "strip fish" in any of the mod- ern cookbooks, but in her "Ap- pledore Cook Book" published in 1870, Mrs. Parloa gives three different recipes for flsh balls, and in each of them she says use the strip fish left over from dinner, writes Nellie Ryder Gates in The Christian Science Monitor. Mrs. Putnam, in her "Receipt Book," 1858, gives full directions for this old-time dish. She calls it Dun Fish. You put the whole fish in a kettle, soak it over- night, bring it to a boil and "dish it up in a clean napkin on a fish dish; eat it with drawn butter and pork scraps." To make the pork scraps, you cut a quarter pound of salt pork into the tiniest of squares, put them into a frying pan, stirring frequently until all the fat is extracted and the scraps are a light brown. Then you pour them, fat and all, over the fish and boiled potatoes The potatoes must be boiled, says Mrs. Par- loa, and there are always beets. Beetsare always served with strip fish, says Mrs. Putnam, most emphatically. There wits another dish made with "strip fish" which Great - Grandmother called "picked fish," There are many recipes for this in the old cookbooks. "Pick up" two cups of freshened salt fish, they all begin. This simply means, flake the strips with a fork into tiny bits and serve in a white sauce. The potatoes to accompany this must be baked. And of course there are beets. The big question today might be, Will "fish strips" push smoked salmon off the hori d'oeuvres tray?

One day I came into the shop to straighten a nail, and as the shop radio Is on the light switch I was presently aware of the opportunity of a lifetime. If I would send my name and address •to the- Hollywood box number, inclosing 25 cents and the wrap- per off whatever kind of soap I was using, I would receive - absolutely free -a lovely writ- ing pen which would perform under water, even on glass, for long years to come, Since I'd been spending 29 cents for pens which wouldn't even write on paper, this sounded like a sure- fire deal, and I responded. No doubt the adverti3ing fra- ternity was doing research on soap habits, and planned to tabu-, ]ate the accumulated response with mercenary int a rt t i o n s, counting on the American Pub- lic to contribute the expenses as well as the information. That was all right with me, I stuck a quarter on a piece of cardboard with some carpenter's glue, wrote my specifications, and in- closed the wrapper off a can of McGruder & Frye's noneaustic fish oil soap. I happen to use that kind of soap, even If no- body else does. Well, long years ago the pogy, known to fish biologists as the menhaden, abounded oft the coast of Maine and was a great economic resource, The pogy is a buttonhole herring, but. too oily and unpalatable for food, and not exactly a game fish. In those days great greasy boats put out into the Gulf al Maine and netted these pogies by the hundreds of thousands of barrels and pro- cessed them for a great variety of civilian uses. They made a lot of fertilizer, mink food, this and that, and they extracted oil. • You could stand on the beach and see the smoke from the rendering, great clouds of black smudge on the horizon. Each boat would be surround- ed by an oil slick for utiles, and a stench you could lean against and hack pieces out Qf.

Some- times, when weather set in, these pogy boats would seek haven in some cove, and it was almost impossible to keep their location a secret, People up on the bank would get wind of it. But pogies were money, and until modern industrial chemistry took over they served their purposes. A great deal of the pogy oil was used in paints. The oil had a permanency and a great power of penetration which impregnat- ed wood and preserved it 'for generations yet unborn, The oil would not dry, however, while a man stood around to see, and this is why Yankees squat on their heels during a conversa- tion, instead of sitting on a door- step or leaning against a shed. Then some of the oil would be put in soap. This wasn't much of a soap by present standards, but it was fairly good for its time -when 'most families came by soap via their own leach - boards and Iong work. Fish oil soap came in cans -not in bars, flakes, or powder -and was used for industrial purposes more than personal ablutions where human skin was a factor. There was a maritime suggestion whenever you pried off a cover. So when the Farquar General' Store bankrupted about 25 years ago I" made them a small offer and received two cases of Mc- Gruder & Frye's product. They. were glad to get any offer. The soap had no doubt been in in- ventory since about 1830. I use the stuff as a spreader and stick- er for fungicides in the orchard, True, modern chemicals for this purpose are available, but I won't need any for about 400 more years. I scoop out a gob, dissolve it in a pail of hot water ,and pour it in the tank along with the nostrums recommended by, 'the Extension Service, It works very well, although it makes my or- chard smell like a clam flat and attracts an' occasional seagull who flies about in a bewildered condition and screams with an alien off -shore doubt. I never got my pen. Some- where in Hollywood is a rascally advertising statistician who owns a quarter with glue on the' mint mark and has never fulfilled the obligation of our agreement, The only satisfaction I have derived from this comes from my own imaginings - I do smile when- ever I suppose how they looked when they found the McGruder & Frye label, I presume they absconded with my money to teach me not to be fresh at a serious time. Then, more or less the same thing happened when they changed a soap powder from white to pink. The new pink powder had many advantages, they said, and the person who best described them in 25 words or less would receive a hand- some sports car; I want a sports car to take egg crates to the', wholesaler, so I quickly enter- ed this contest. I use this par- ticular soap powder as a spread- er and sticker for nicotine - sulphate on my roses and door - yard pretties, and while the old white powder was all right, the new pink has a wonderful scent and I am delighted. Anybody who has ever sprayed nicotine -sulphate by a kitchen window will know why the scent is admired. My dooryard reeks of aromatics and joy, instead of nicotine -sulphate. When I spray, the Sweet William is sweeter and the rose improves. I was able to get my happiness about this soap into 25 words . But alas! The soap company never sent me a sports car. I didn't even get one of the 2,500 other valuable awards. I had to console myself with merely my mind's eye supposal of how they looked when they read my entry. 1 do hope there• was a light chuckle, at least, - .By John Gould in The Christian Science Monitor. 10. tinuill hod% of water 11 Whirlpool 13. of an anel'•nt rite( 20.

WHAT'LL YOU HAVE? -"Bossy", one of eight head of cattle that broke out of a truck delivering them to the stockyards, acted like she knew her way around the'city. She headed straight for a nearby tavern but was captured before being able to sample any of its products. 11ITMN FRONT About 10 years ago cattle breeders first began to develop an interest in the preservation of meadow crops as silage rather than hay, At that time it seemed a logical solution to the problem of producing high quality rough- age for winter feeding under the adverse weather conditions which often plagued the haying season. The swing to grass silage gain- ed impetus when experiments conducted by the federal depart- ment of agriculture proved that grass preserved in this fashion could satisfactorily replace evan the best quality hay, These ex- periments showed grass silage to be relatively rich in protein, calcium and carotene. While somewhat lower in digestible nu- trients and net energy than hay, it was slightly higher in protein. • + Two recent developments have further encouraged farmers to use this type of feed for both dairy and beef cattle. One was the invention of harvesting ma- cfiinery which grealty • reduced the labor of handling green grass; the other - the horizon- tal silo which made possible self- feeding of silage. Studies at the . Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa indicate that self-feeding of silage may reduce labor by as much as 75 per cent. There are still problems to be solved before horizontal silos can be considered completely satis- factory, One of these problems is to find a covering material which will prevent spoilage from exposure of the silage to the air. Tests conducted by the United States department of agriculture may have solved this problem. Two neoprene -coated nylon cov- ers were tested for two seasons. Not only did they reduce spoil- age to an almost negligible amount but they proved to be durable and Tess subject to acci- dental damage from handling than other materials. • • • The two silos used in the tests were 14 feet wide, eight feet high, and 60 feet long. Their sides were made of matched. lumber, lined with rolled as- phalt roofing, and their floors of concrete. They 'era located on well -drained sites. In 1054 both silos were filled with second -cutting grass and clover. The contents of one silo had been put through a. forage chopper. 'The other was filled with unchopped forage. In both cases the silage was packed in with tractors during the filling period. Covers of unsupported plastic material, joined with tape, were applied and weighted at the edges with iron pipe, The tops were covered with sawdust. Al- though the taped seams appeared airtight, a differential in elasti- city of the cover and the tape caused puckering and allowed air to enter, Six to seven pounds of spoiled dry matter per square foot of silage proved this sealing technique to be unsatisfactory. • • • In 1955, unchopped and chopped first -cutting grass was again stored In the two silos. The covering materiel originally planned was not available, so temporary kraa paper covers were lapped and weighted with a layer of fresh, unchopped grass. These temorary covers were removed one month later and replaced by neoprene -coated nylon with cemented seams. The . edges of the covers were weight- ed with railway ties, and the central portion with a two -to - three inch layer of sawdust. Top spoilage losses observed in this test showed that the neo- prene -coated nylon reduced the losses of the previous year to two pounds per square foot from an average of 6.7 pounds. * * • The coated -nylon covers were used exclusively in 1956, weight- ed in the same manner, Forage of chopped first -cutting orchard grass was harvested in May and the silos opened for feeding in December. Almost 90 per cent of the silage was found suitable for feeding, Total spoilage was re- duced to four -tenths of a pound per square foot of top surface - as compared with six to seven pounds in the first tests with un- supported plastic covers. As a result of these tests, coat- ed nylon may soon be playing an important role on many Cane• dian farms, and ranches, It is made of /100 per cent nylon fabric coated with neoprene ruo- ber. A tarpaulin made of coated nylon is weather -resistant, light in weight and can be handled easily. When used to cover a horizontal silo it will not stick or freeze to the ensilage, and can be easily manipulated by one man to allow self-feeding of cattle. To date the agricultural appli cations of coated nylon have been limited to portable light- weight storehouses for grain. These recent developments sug- gest its potential value to farmers. • + • Canadian cattlemen have dis- covered that even when their animals are housed in clean, dry surroundings they can become infested with lice. When not checked Immediately, these little insects, the biggest is not more than one-eighth inch long, can prevent normal growth in young animals and reduce milk and meat production in mature cat- tle. Some badly infested animals may become so unthrifty that extreme depression, anaemia and even death may result, * • * On most farms and ranches chemical insecticides have made possible regular preventative control programs, The cattle are inspected and sprayed in the cpring, before they are let out to pasture or range, and again in the fall before they are con- fined in feed lots or barns. Since complete coverage is necessary, each animal is thoroughly soak- ed by a high-pressure spray, Special attention is given all pro- tected places where lice are like- ly to congregate. If lice infestation occurs dur- ing the winter months when temperatures prevent outdoor spraying, control becomes more difficult. Even hand washing will not be practical unless a warm work area is available, Many farmers have solved this problem by hand -dusting with a 50 methoxychlor insecticide which is non-toxic to both hu- mans and animals. * $ * Lice control can be effectively cbtained by sprinkling a heap- ing teaspoonful of the powder along the back of the animal. The powder should then be evenly distributed from the poll down along the neck and with- ers, and over the back, rump and upper flanks. It must be .carefully worked by hand through the animal's rough shag- gy winter -coat until it reaches the skin. Special attention should be given to the folds on the sides of the animals neck, the inner surface of the legs, ears, the bases of the horns, the tail and other parts of the body where lice are likely to be hid- den. Several applications, spaced at two to three-week intervals, may be necessary to keep infes- tation in check.

R. Barclay Warren B.A,, 11,D, The Church and World Evangelism Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 13:1-111 Romans 1:14-18. The martyrdom of five Amer- ican Missionaries in the' Ecuador jungle two years ago focussed the attention of the world os missions in a very vivid man- ner. The bravery and devotion of the young widows in carry- ing on at their posts continues to, stab the conscience of a world, spiritually sleepy, in the pursuit of fleeting pleasures and the things that money can buy. Why do people risk their lives to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those who haven't heard? Is it worth -while? These young peo- ple, and thousands of other men and women like them, have gone forth in response to the Divine Imperative as expressed in the memory selection for today's lesson: "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." (Matthew 28:19.) We all have a definite respon- sibility in sending out the Good News, All must pray land pay. Some are clearly and distinctly called' of God to go in person to those who sit in heathen darkness. At Antioch as certain prophets and teachers minis- tered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, "Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them." And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. Saul became the greatest missionary. He • bore the glad tidings to Cyprus, through Asia Minor, into Macedonia and Greece and finally to Rome, the capital of the Empire. From there, others took the message into Central Europe and across the channel to the tiny island of Britain. Our forefathers heard the Message because others obeyed the command of Jesus to preach the Gospel to all nations. Haven't other tribes and nations the right to hear It, too? Church members who have no interest in missions need to be convert- ed themselves. Then they will want to send the message around the world: "0 taste and see that the LORD is good." (Psalm 34: 8.) Communists by their zeal shame many Christians. We cer- tainly need a great spiritual awakening. Let there be more emphasis on Missions and wit won't need so much ado about missiles.
