In this yeai, 1956, Ontario Hydro's Golden Jubilee, the modern home is not only light- conditioned, but work-condi- tioned by electricity. Electrical servants, many of them fully automatic, have made possible a higher, More comfortable standard of living for all. They cook; refrigerate; wash; dry; iron; polish and clean. It is difficult to name a routine household task where electric- ity cannot, in some way, be of assistance. Truly, today's living is wee- sured in Elowatt-hours . . and these are servant-hours. No matter where we look, elec- tricity is at work making life easier and more enjoyable. Hydro will continue to provide an adequate supply of elec- tricity to meet the power • requirements of the province . piAter, that means better living for all in Ontario.

Montgomery, agri- cultural representative, said. Other seed surveys have been made by government departments, Results of this spring's survey will determine success of last year's campaign to improve quality of seed sown in the county. The campaign was initiated by the Soil and Crop Improvement Association because of the low standard of seed revealed in the 1955 survey. According to samples taken then, one farmer in fiVe sowed rejected seed, "We want to see what results have been achieved from the wide- spread publicity that was given last year's survey," Mr. Montgom- ery stated. "We are anxious to learn the general grade of seed has improved." The project is a followlup to the survey taken last year by Ontario Department of Agriculture.

There are 1,629 alcoholics on= an average in Canada for every 100,000 persons over 20 years of age. °Atari°, Quebec and British Columbia exceed this aver- age.

Manitoba flood a few years ago. Four thousand alcoholics are be- ing produced each yeaf, besides the 49,000 which are already victims. The concetisus of opinion was that education on the bad effects of liquor should 'be given in schools and churches and that the law concerning the sale of liquor to 'teen agers be enforced.
