We were like all the rest —
we wondered if we would rec-
ognize Queenie after a lapse of
twelve years, From a distance
we picked out first one and then
another as Queenie. But when
quite a different person came
to the Customs desk we had no
doubt at all. There was the
same smile, the same bright
manner that we remembered—
she didn't appear changed at
all — or even tired. Soon we
were all united, greetings ex-
changed and then we were on
our way, Joy and the two boys
stayed and had supper with us
and the two little fellows were
very friendly with this aunt
they had never seen.
When the supper dishes were
done you can imagine how we
talked. It just seems you can
exchange more family news in
two hours conversation than you
can in two years of letter -
writing, And then there was the
trip over. Queenie said the
flight had been smooth and un-
eventful — she hadn't even
minded the taking off or land-
ing, At eleven -thirty I suggest-
ed it might be a good idea to
go to bed. Queenie looked at
her watch — "My goodness,"
she exclaimed, "do you know
by our time it is four -thirty in
the morning! No wonder Pm
tired,"
For the next two days we
took short drives around the
country showing her this and
that, including Ginger Farm
with its network of cloverleaf
and highways with a short ser-
vice road running directly into
the farm, She was astounded at
the many changes since her last
visit, Early Friday morning our
visitor' was on her way again,
lh!s time to Renfrew, Ottawa
and Deep River, travelling with
Bob, Joy and the Iwo boys as
they were going to Deep River
far Thanksgiving, A three-hun•
ch•ed mile drive with two little
ones in the car might be quite
an ordeal. We are hoping it
wasn't loo much for her,
The rest of that day Partner
and I sort of rested up a bit,
Later In the day we were talk-
ing to Daughter — she and her
family were going to the cottage
for the weekend — would we
go along too, That meant four
adults, three active boys and
two dogs in one car! It was hot
and I wilted at the thought.
Partner wanted 010 to go and
he would stay home but I talk-
ed hint into going instead by say-
ing I would just as soon have
a quiet weekend at home,
I started my weekend by
working in the garden — pull-
ing up cannas, petunias and
nicotines that were certainly
past their glory, Then a neigh-
bour asked the to go shopping
with her and I went, Early Sun-
(;.Iy afternoon a little girl from
next door came running over in
great distress crying •— "Mrs.
Clarke, please, oh please conte
over and help my mother, She
is awful sick."
So off I went to the house
next door where I found a Po-
lish woman in great distress, 1
had trouble in getting a doctor
to come but finally managed it.
The poor soul thought she was
going to pass away; begged me
not to leave her and to look af-
ter her little girl if she should
die. The doctor gave her a
sedative after a thorough ex-
amination but he could not say
at that time whether she was
likely to get better or wove.
What added to the trouble was
the fact that the woman and
her husband could speak only
broken English. Fortunately
their len-year-old daughter was
a good interpreter, Naturally I
was back and forth for the rest
of the day, Another neighbour
had invited ole in for dinner
so 1 went as that was quicker
than making a meal for myself,
Monday, being a holiday, the lit-
tle girl and her father will beth
be at home so I hope the patient
will improve during the day.
When Partner returns he will
be a little surprised — and per-
haps disturbed — at what my
"nice, quiet weekend" tuned
into, But then isn't that what
neighbours are for — to help
each other in time of need'! I
felt so sorry for the child. Poor
wee soul, She was so frightened
when her mother kept talking
or dying. I rather fancy the
woman has a bad attack of
summer flu but she thought she
had eaten something that was
poisonous. That is why she was
so frantic.
Modern Etiquette
By Anne Ashley
Q. If a girl has no parents
and she has no means of giving
party to announce her engage-
ment, how can she best make
this announcement?
A. Her best way would be
through the society -news page of
her local newspaper.
Q. For how long should the
bread and butter plates be left
0n the dinner table?
A, Until it is time to serve the
dessert.
Q, Is it necessary for a host
and hostess to accompany de•
parting guests to their cars?
A, Not unless they really wish
to do so, Otherwise, it is all
right for them to speak their
good-by's at their door and then
remain there until their guests
are well on their way to their
cars,

Some True Tales
Of Lost -And -Found
While he was sitting on the
beach at a Lancashire coast re-
sort, a Yorkshireman lost hip
gold watch which was inscribed
with his name and address.
That was thirty-one years age,
Recently, a young girl on holiday
was making a sandcastle on the
same beach when she found the
watch.
It has been restored to its
owner, who Is now nearly seven-
ty. He was overjoyed to receive
the watch as it was regarded as
a "family heirloom."
A haulage merchant in Giant••
organshirc found a silver watch
completely intact while loading
coal into a Torry. The owner was
traced.
Ile was a miner who had drop•
ped the watch in the pit many
years before,
His watch had gone to the pit-
head, passed over wheels, pull -
ways and screens and been tip•
pad into the waiting truck with-
out being damaged.
Lost -and -found stories are al-
ways fascinating, A dream which
cane true after eighteen years
figures in one of them.
Going to school one day in 1942
a Somerset boy lost a purse con-
taining a locket and some coins.
That night he dreamed that he
would find the purse.
Nothing happened until last
year when, as a young farm
worker, he was given the job of
clearing a ditch which was on
the route to his old school,
On turning the second shovel-
ful he found the purse. The
leather had almost rotted away
but he recovered the locket and
coins just as his boyhood dream
had foretold.
While visiting London a Wor-
cestershire man dropped a signet
ring of sentimental value as he
got out of a train at South Ken-
sington, He asked a porter to
look for it but was told later
that it could not be found,
At that moment 0 train came
in. The man explained to an of-
ficial that it was "just here that
I got ou1," glancing down as he
spoke, '!'here lay the ring on the
footboard of the train that had
just come in after slaking a
round of London!
TOO FAT — Mrs. Sharon Lee
Clarke, 21, poses in front of

The blonde, who now weighs

she was too fat.

Parking Tickets
British Version
Visitors from uv, r. , as will
recognize. London's par,:icg tee-
ters but if they expect a parking
ticket to follow the home pattern
they will get a surprise, Poi' the
British parking ticket is a typical
compromise with American and
continental methods. it is not 0
notification that a fine has been
incurred. 11 is, to use the word-
ing on the ticket, ;t "Notice of
opportunity to pay a fixed penal-
ty." It is an invitation to accept
8 penalty of ,L'2, 'Phase accus-
tomed to rougher justice—seeing
that the alternative i; police
prosecution—might assume that
£2 is the minimum fine and that
to delay payment would incur
the certain risk, failing a com-
plete defense, of a higher penal-
ty, This however is not the
British way.
"Fines on the spot" for traffic
offenses have never appcalcd to
the British judicial system. It
was only after long enquiry and
debate that even the present
procedure for "punishment with-
out prosecution" was passed by
Parliament. So many safeguards
are now built into the system
that only where enforcement by
"ticket" i- accepted as hcin en-
tirely lair and reasonable has it
worked With any success.
Wholesale enforcement of traf-
fic violations has long keen ac-
cepted as impossible, but the
strict penalty ticket is its near-
est approach. With parked vehi-
cles it has been found to work
only where the registered owner
of the vehicle can be held finally
responsible. The difficulties and
delay in tracing drivers would
make obstruction too easy. And
yet the British parking ticket,
with its mild offer to settle with-
in 21 days and liability limited
to the driver only (if he can be
found), does work. ,
The efficiency test of the park-
ing ticket is the rate of voluntary
compliance, In Britain the sys-
tem is at present being tried in
London and in two cities in the
North and Midlands—Blackpool
and Leicester, T h e London
scheme began just 12 months ago
—on September 19, 1980. Official
figures for the first eight months
of the scheme showed that only
some 60 per cent of the offenders
who received tickets complied
with them, Some 15 per cent
were excused payment and pro-
secutions were necessary in the
remainder.
But in Leicester things have
been very different. There the
rate of compliance was 90 per
cent and Less than 8 per cent re-
1u�ired prosecution, Why this big
i}Terence? Shortly, It is that
ekets n. London enforce meter
sone regulations — mainly for
waiting in restricted streets, A
high proportion of offenders con-
sider the ticket was "unfair," no
adequate warning of the restric-
tion being given in the streets
themselves. Leicester, however,
)1as no meters and relies on "No
Waiting" and "Unilateral Wait-
ing" restrictions,_ fully advertised
by traffic signs. Motorists have
little excuse for illegal parking
and they accept the £2 penalty
without argument.
One of the exasperating things
about inflation is that, even
though the price of haircuts
keeps going up, they don't last
any longer.

This Jewel Theft
Was RealIy a Gem
Iviost jewel robberies are car-
ried out in orthodox style, with
a gang breaking into premises to
get their loot .. , like the $150,-
000 haul from a diamond mer-
chant off London's Hatton Gar-
den earlier this year.
But the coup engineered t?
Raoul Baretti in 1926 was out•t
standing in originality and auda-
city.
The car which drew up out-
side Martine's jewellery shop
in the rue de la Paix, Paris, was
of the best. make, From it alight-
ed a stoutish, moustached and
impeccably -dressed middle-aged
man,
Each year, he told the assist-
ant, he had bought his wife
some pearls as a birthday gift
to make up a necklace, Now he
would like a few more.
The customer spent a long
time examining pearls before
selecting ten of the best, Produc-
ing a card beading the name of
one of France's most aristocratic
families, he asked to have the
pearls delivered to his home.
Martine's messenger was a
powerfully -built man skilled in
the use of firearms and equally
adept at fighting without wea-
pons. With the pearls and a re-
volver in his pocket he arrived
at the customer's address.
A butler received him, led the
way to the second floor and
rapped discreetly on a bedroom
door.
As the door opened and the
messenger stepped inside, two
men pounced on him and pin-
ioned his arms. He was forced
on to the bed, the men holding
his wrists and ankles.
Then a third man appeared.
He was the customer who had
ordered the pearls. From the
messenger's pockets he removed
the revolver and the pearls.
After tying the messenger's
feet and hands securely the men
left, locking the door behind
them,
Soon afterwards, the door was
.unlocked and a tall, dignified
stranger entered. After eying the
messenger silently for a few mo-
ments, the tall man began. ques-
tioning him about his early life,
much as a psychiatrist might do.
The messenger almost scream-
ed at the man, reminding him
that the pearls had been stolen
and what else could they want
of him; why this silly question-
ing?
Then, taking a grip on him-
self, the messenger explained
about the missing pearls. Now
it was the tall man's turn to look
perplexed. He asked the mes-
senger for proof. He was told
to telephone Martine's.
The tall roan left the room,
locking the door behind him. In
minutes he returned with the
two men who had seized the
messenger. Now, on the tall
man's orders, they freed him
Shortly the police arrived, to-
gether with executive members
of Martine's. Then the fantastic
story was told,
Once graced by aristocrats, the
house was now a home for the
mentally deranged. Only the day
before, the customer. (later iden-
tified as Raoul Baretti) came,
as he said, to arrange foi an
examination of his brother, ex-
plaining that he was suffering
from the delusion that he had
a package of pearls, worth near-
ly $100,000, to deliver and be.
lieved that everyone was pan-
ning to rob him.
Baretti explained that the fa-
mily had all agreed that this
brother should be confined to
this private home to see if he
could be cured.
Asked by the proprietor how
Baretti could persuade his bro-
ther to visit the home, Baretti
said he would tell him that the
proprietor was interested in our -
chasing his pearls.
In reality, Baretti assured the
doctor, the "pearls" were actu-
ally pebbles his brother had
picked up in the street.
Baretti concluded by saying
he would be present when his
brother arrived and that attend-
ants must seize his brother and
tie him before he became dan-
gerously violent, He, Baretti,
would relieve him of the load-
ed revolver he always carried
and also the box of pearls.
Baretti would then leave, al-
lowing the doctor to examine
his brother and calling the next
day for the medical report.
The ingenious and original
plan worked perfectly, but from
descriptions supplied by wit-
nesses the police identified the
swindler as Raoul Baretti, inter-
national jewel thief.
Eventually he was traced to
Switzerland where he was liv-
ing luxuriously on the proceeds,
Brought to trial on April 12th,
1928, Baretti was sentenced to
fifteen years in prison. But as he
had a serious heart condition, the
rigours of prison life were too
much for him. He died less than
two years later,
Here's A Whale
Of A Story
This Is the biggest fish story
1 have ever told, or ever expect
to. It Is a whale of a story, liter-
ally, and it is true.
It started four years ago
when one of our Dalmatians
brought in a dead owl it had
stirred up in the woods. It was
a beautiful specimen, and we
put it in a brown paper bag and
popped it in the deep freeze,
hoping to find a taxidermist to
mount it for us.
Of course we wanted the best
job possible done in stuffing and
mounting this owl; and so the
next morning I took it, still
wrapped in brown paper bag,
into Washington to the office.

"One consolation: we never
have to worry what a blind
' date will look likel"
At noon I slipped over to the
Smithsonian Institution, or ra-
ther the natural history build-
ing, which is directly across the
mall front the Smithsonian.
Washington guidebooks say this
building contains "The world's
largest collections of anthropolo-
gical, biological, and geographi-
cal material relating to the Unit-
ed States and its possessions,"
And that is no figure of speech.
The attics, basements, and
workshops that fill the build-
ing's courts are stuffed with spe-
cimens and displays that visitors
never sec or know exist, If there
are 17,000,000 specimens on dis-
play, as guides claim, there must
be 10 times that number htct-
elt:l from the public eye. My
journey to the Smithsonian's
natural history building was of
(r•urse, to see if their workmen
would stuff the owl for me.
1 finally found the man 1
wanted in a workshop in the
cast court; and, after inducing
him to leave a half -stuffed cock-
atoo, field mouse, gazelle, and
gila monster, made a deal with
him to stuff my owl after hours.
(Now, at last, we come to the
whale,)
I returned in a month, was
delighted with my owl, and be-
fore leaving — to make small
talk — said: "You wouldn't have
s few unwanted specimens --
bcast, bird, or fish, 1 don't care
— to go with my owl on my
mantel over my fireplace:"
"Why, of course," the taxi-
dermist replied, practically caus-
ing me to fall over the half -
stuffed gild monster, or was it
the gazelle? Then, for a long
moment looking at me, he said
in a beseeching voice: "You
couldn't use a whale could you?"
Seldom, l e t me s a y, am I
speechless, but 1 was then,
writes Neal Stanford in the
Christian Science Monitor.
He, taking my silence for con-
sent, hurried on to say that the
museum was going to get a new
whale before long; that its 78 -
foot sulphur -bottom whale (that
it had been displaying ever since
the Chicago World's Fair — and
1 mean the one in 1893) was
about ready for the discard: and
would I be interested?
There was only one catch, he
added. I would have to cart it
away,
Now I have a small lake on
my property, covering about five
acres, and for just the smallest
fraction of a second I toyed
with the idea of accepting the
whale, putting it in my lake,
,and, at regular intervals, con-
trolled by mechanical devices,
letting it submerge, then break
to the surface and spout a
mighty geyser of water.
But I had to give it up.
How was I to get a 78 -foot
whale out to my place in Lees-
burg, Virginia, 40 miles from
Washington? I thought of a
trailer, but no trailer is equipped
to haul 78 -foot whales, Next, I
thought of the good old Poto-
mac, just blocks from the
Smithsonian and only two mile
from my home in Virginia, May-
be I could float it up the river.
But then I remembered the falls
that just north of Washington
make the river impassable.
And so, I reluctantly said: "No
thank you. I don't see how I
can accept your whale."
This all comes back to me
now, for the Smithsonian's new
whale will shortly be ready •for
display. It is a 97 -foot blue
whale and is being so realistic-
ally displayed that when I went
over to see it this week I had
the feeling it was alive and just
about ready to dive.
My own whale (I will always
call it "mine"), the old 78 -foot
sulphur -bottom, was still on dis-
play, but I didn't have the'cour-
age to take a look at it.

Ed, Note — To save readers'
time, paper and postage stamps
we might say that Mr, Stanford
has already been informed that
a whale is NOT a fish!

Beauty Contests
And Hot Biscuits
The Commissioner of Agricul-
ture of the State of Maine, E. L.
(Dick) Newdick, recently attend-
ed a supper served in the base-
ment of a small-town Maine
church, and during the course of
the merriment somebody asked
him if he didn't think the bis -
cits were pretty good, Commiss-
ioner Newdick thereupon made
a fine statement which has not
been accorded the general notor-
iety it deserves. He said, "Well,
the five 1 had were good."
Iles. Newdick, seater] beside
him, next made an observation
whish is equally momentous, for
she said, "You had six!„
Now, a vast and irrefutable
moral is about to be inculcated,
so a more specific description of
the cir,uinstances should be aff-
orded. Once a year the Mame
Blueberry Industry gathers its
fares at Union Fair, held in the
town of Union, and holds a pro-
motional program known as the
Annual Maine Wild Blueberry
hestival. Many pleasant mo-
ments prevail, and in the eve-
ning the "M a i n c Blueberry
Quem" is selected.
This year she is Miss Monatee
Smith of the blueberry town of
Brooksville, and if you think hers
is is a minor distinction in the
general perspective, you should
have seen the 12 girls she beat.
The Miss America pageant, by
comparison, is a veritable cham-
ber of horrors, for the blueberry
barrens cf .lainc are certainly
not a single -product area. Any-
way, after an exhausting after-
noon program the several con-
testants, judger, committee, and
visiting dignitaries are whisked
from the crowd at the fair and
taken to the quiet dining room
under the church for a dinner.
Mr. Ne'+'dick, enroute to this re-
past in the feebleness of hunger,
was heard to philosophize: "In
Union, there is strength!" The
dinner was certainly memorable,
and much was made of the bis-
cuits.
Now these biscuits were creat-
ed by a petite matron of Union'
whose name is Jackie Hawes,
Volunteering to assist in the pre-
paration of this supper, she right-
ly divided the work so the bis-
cuits fell to her, and while an-
other husked the sweet corn and
another rolled the pies (Maine
wild blueberry pies) she splashed
flour around en a breadboard and
came up with an acre and a half
of real down -Maine baking pow-
der biscuits which, however stal-
wart they appeared on the platt-
ers, failed to survive the engage-

particular batch of biscuits with
which she had adorned the re-
past on this occasion, and when
stated this way the problem was
one Jackie could quickly answer,
The following is a quotation:
"1 think it was six cups of flour
i used—but 1 don't use a measur-
ing cup. 1 just take a tea -cup out
of the cupboard and dip. No, I
don't sift it, Then I kind of guess
how many cups I've used, and
put in two teaspoons of baking
powder for each cup, Somewhere
near, That would be, two -times -
six -12 teaspoons, wouldn't it?
So, now let's see—some salt, 1
guess a tablespoon, You know,
you just put in some salt, but I'd
say about a tablespoon, Next you
have to have shortening, and you
want two good gobs of it, a cou-
ple about the size of an egg—just
what it needs. (Business of hold-
ing up both hands with the fin-
gers indicating two medium -
large hens' eggs.) And then 1
take a pastry cutter, one of those
things you mix shortening into
flour with, and if I don't have
one handy I use my fingers, and
I get it feeling just right before I
put in the milk. How much
milk? Oh, perhaps a quart, I'd
say, Then when it feels about
right, I take it on the board and
knead it some—not too much—
and cut the biscuits and put
them in the pans, Then I shove
them in a 450 -oven and take
them out when they're done, I
guess that isn't very much of a
receet, but that's the way I
make biscuits."
Commissioner Newdick, being
Informed that his wife had now
acquired the Hawes' recipe for
baking -powder biscuits, looked
as if he had just heard that all
farm commodities had gone up a
ao1lar a bushel, an expression
much like one who has found
five dollars he didn't know was
in the pockets of his old pants,
and he rapped on the table with
a salt shaker to gain attention,

"Girls—you are all young and
pretty, and a great credit to the
state. Many and various honours
will come upon you as you course

you is to be honoured this eve-
ning with a coveted title. But I
hope all of you will learn to
bake good biscuits." — By John

Doesn't it take the cake that
a cooky won the top national
prize at Pillsbury's 13th Grand
National Bake -Off, held this
year in the Grand Ballroom
of the Beverly Hilton Hotel in
Beverly Hills,
And the Pillsbury Company
needn't have brought 100 contes-
tants from all over the country
to California to discover Mrs,
Alice H. Reese and her rich bar -
shaped butter cooky with its
caramel and chocolate topping.
She's right from Minneapolis,
where Pillsbury has its head-
quarters.
This year was the tenth in
which Mrs. Reese had entered
the contest, She's been cooking
since she was 12, she said, and
she didn't spend much time per-
fecting her "candy -bar cookies,"
"They were 'pecan pillows' when
1 made them yesterday," she
said when the "candy -bar" name
was announced at the award
luncheon, She had t h e idea,
made a batch, sent in the re-
cipe, and didn't make them
again until she was notified that
she was a finalist in the contest.
Then she made her second batch.
The third time she tried ner
new recipe was at the Bake -Off
Monday and then she made two
batches.

She just couldn't believe she'd
won the grand prize of $25,000.
She and Mrs. Clara L, Oliver
of Wellsville, Mo., who won the
second grand prize of $5,000
with her Hawaiian coffee ring,
were the last of the top prize
winners to be called to receive
their checks from Art Linkletter,
master of ceremonies, Each was
given an envelope and Mrs,
Reese told to read the name on
hers. 1.f it were her name, she
would win the $5,000 second
prize, but if it were Mrs. Oh-
ver's then Mrs, Oliver would be
the second prize winner and
Mrs. Reese would receive the
other envelope with the $25,000
grand prize, Television viewers,
including her husband back in
Minneapolis, saw her delight and
amazement when she read Mrs.
Oliver's name and realized that
she and her cookies had made it
to the top, writes Jessie Ash
Arndt in the Christian Science
Monitor.

Ages of the bakers -off ranged
from 12 to four -score years. The
most senior of the senior group
was Mrs. Dorothy Azone of
Boyne City, Mich,

Alaska, whose grandfather went
there in the gold rush and whose

and Mrs, Lee Mason of El Paso,

"Guess you wanted to keep on
Jiving in the largest state of the

said her neighbour.
The youngest contestant was
12 -year-old Dean Townsend,
who lives on a farm near Lor-
etto, Neb, Dean, a 4-H boy,
figured out his cake recipe —
one with lots of rich filling be-
cause he likes cakes that way
— just because he has a "sweet

Caviar Shortage
Said To Threaten
People tvho 10vc caviar are
due for a shook -- soon they may
have to go short of this expen-
sive delicacy,
Caviar — the roc of the stur-
geon, lightly salted _. comes
from Russia and from the south-
ern walers of the Caspian Sea,
off the coast of Persia,
More than 140 Ions are obtain-
ed yearly from the Caspian, but
now the fishermen are beginning
to worry about their future.
This is because the level of the
Caspian has been sinking stead-
ily for about len years and now
some of the sturgeon spawning
beds have become inaccessible,
Submarine subsidences and
dant projects are believed to be
the cause of the ]ower level,
Russia receives about a third
of Persia's annual production of
caviar. 11 was the Persians who,
centuries ago, discovered the
delicacy, They called it "chav-
jar," which means "cake of
strength."
Connoisseurs of caviar in the
United Stales today swear hat
it has the power to soothe and
is a wonderful antidote for a
hangover, 'Phe U.S. has bought
sixty tons of caviar from Persia
this year. The nearest city out-
side Persia where the delicacy
can be bought is Beirut, capital
of the Lebanon. But it costs
about $3 a spoonful if you buy
it there.
Today the sturgeon is the
only surviving member of a pri-
mitive family of fish, The larg-
est specimens are about ten feet
long and weigh as much as 500
ibs.
Eleven years ago, when Per-
sian fishermen were earning
only about $1,50 a day for seven
months of the year, it was cal-
culated that one giant sturgeon's
yield of caviar would pay one
of the men's wages for seven
years.
All sturgeons caught in Bri-
tish waters — very few are —
belong to the Sovereign wider a
decree of Edward I1, That is
why the sturgeon is called a
royal fish,
In 1948 a sturgeon weighing
90 lbs. and measuring six feet
nine inches was landed at Looe,
Cornwall, by a fisherman who
sent it to Buckingham Palace
as a gift to the late King George
VI,

One may only know that no per-

(All that was a long time ago•
Today, all along the pinon belts,
it is often easier to steer the pick-

On a Pioneer Farm
In Old Ontario
As I look back to the world
of my boyhood across more than
eighty years of remembered life,
it seems as though centuries had
passed between then and now.
'i'he quiet, pleasant country town
of Strathroy in Western Ontario,
on the outskirts of which I was
born on August 6, 1874, was, like
most places in the Middle West,
still in touch with America's
heroic age, that of the pioneers
Both my grandfathers cleared
their farms from the wilderness
with the ax. My mother's girl-
hood home was built from logs
on the farm, and, although by
my time a frame kitchen had
been added, the great fireplace
was still used on occasion for
cooking,
There were stumps of the pri-
meval forest in the pasture lot
by the creek, and across it on a
hill a dark, uncut hemlock wood,
by which Indians from the reser-
vation ten miles away used to
camp when the stream was fill-
ed with fish in the spring freshet,
using the bark for roofing their
little huts. Beavers built their
dams on the smaller creeks, and
if one' crept quietly • down the
hillside one could . see thein
chewing down the willow trees.
Apparently the Indians did not
hunt thein, and we liked to have
the creatures there,
By my own time only one
winding pioneer road still re-
mained, running alongside the
streams to the nearest market
town. The' whole country had
been cut through by the straight
"concession. lines" and "side
roads" of government engineers,
blacking out square or oblong
farms. There, as elsewhere all
over the continent, the surveyor
mapped the country for the set-
tler. Orchards, gardens and fields
were set primly side by side for
miles on end, with .houses and
farm buildings. • spaced a little
back from the road, The layout
was symmetrical, with all the
farms alike, but here, as else-
where on the continent, it made
prose instead of poetry of the
countryside, - From "The Auto-
biography of James T, Shotwell."

An additional test procedure
has been introduced by Health
of Animals Division of the
Division of the Canada Depart-
ment of Agriculture to speed
up re -certification of brucel-
losis -free beef herd areas. It is
a market -cattle testing program
equivalent to the milk ring re-
certification procedure used for
dairy herds. Co-operation of
beef cattle owners and the
CDA's meat inspection section
will be required to make it
work,
Advantage of the plastic,
back -tag scheme devised is that
it provides a method of screen-
ing herds in beef and range
areas for brucellosis with a
minimum Ol inconvenience to
the owner and minimum cost to
the government.
• * •
The plan is for the identi-
fication tags to be attached to
cattle being marketed, especi-
ally brucellosis -susceptible cat-
tle whose herd of origin can
be determined, A record of
the tag is kept at the Health
of Animals Division district
office. At the time. that the ani-
mal is slaughtered, an inspector
will collect a blood sample
which will be forwarded with
the tag to the laboratory, It
brucellosis is indicated by the
laboratory examination, the
originating herd can be traced
and submitted to test.
• * •
An inspector will inform
the owner and arrange a herd
test. Compensation will not be
paid for positive animals un-
covered on a market test since
these animals were not ordered
slaughtered, Nor will the herd
be subject to quarantine and
retests if no further brucel-
losis -positive animals are un-
covered as a result of the herd
test,
At first the tags will be
applied by meat inspection
assistants or technicians at
commission auctions, consign-
ment sales, stockyards or ,any-
where that cattle are assembled
for market purposes. But the
hope is that ranches, co-opera-
tives and livestock dealers will
soon be interested • enough in
the plan to put the tags on all
cattle as they are marketed.
• •
The . market -cattle testing
program, will find its greatest
application in the west, but it
will be used in Eastern Canada
as well. In the beginning, tag-
ging will be confined to adult
cows over four years intended
for immediate slaughter.
Federal veterinarians are
confident that a uniform back -
tagging of animals of proper
age and class in districts of
origin and the setting up of
sample collecting, testing and
reporting procedures will not
only be a tremendous aid to
the brucellosis eradication cam-
paign, but may also contribute
to control of disease in cattle
generally.
* • •
The Health of Animals Divis-
ion has embarked on an edu-
cational program to acquaint
livestock owners of the bene-
fits of market testing and to
enlist their participation.

Canada's dairy industry must
look deeper into customer mo-
tivation if it is to sell more of its
products, according to D, B.
Goodwillie, of the Canada De-
partment of Agriculture.
He was moderator of a panel
discussion at the National Dairy
Council of Canada at its annual
sleeting in IIalifax,
He said that milk production,
now about 19 billion pounds per
year, is apparently on the In-
crease. Milk is still one of the
best food values at the store and
the population of the country
is going hep,
But, asked the speaker, why
is per capita consumption of
milk products going down? In
1960 the figure was 950 pounds
against 1,062 pounds ten years
before,
I -Ie wondered if dairy products
are not being 'but. -promoted and
out -merchandised" by outer foods
claiming their share of the house-
wife's dollar.
r• • •
In the face of such competi-
tion, producers and retailers
need to know more about the
market - such as what custom-
ers want and why they want it;
why tastes differ in different
areas; would teenagers take to
milk; do people drink it from
habit or because it is food for
them?
Finally, there is the question
of price, There' are many food
and non-food products bidding
against dairy foods and the
price must be competitive to
meet this challenge.
