The Brussels Post, 1956-01-25, Page 3r- elere OOL LESSON this is reflected in a lower aver age revenue per ton mile than in 1954. While there was no change In the general level of freight rates during 198,14'-,1h 4;e. were Import- ant -develepitleaA' in the rate structure aria:: iti i s tratien. A new Canadian Freight Classic figatien Was filed with the Board of Transport Commissioners for -Canada on March 1st, and On the same date a scale of equals !zed class rates became effective, In a move to add to the com- petitive opportunities Of carriers, Parliament in 1955 enacted legis- lation providing for freer ad- ministration of agreed charge contracts for freight 'transport. Since the latter part of Jtily, When the new procedures came into effect, the Canadian Na- tional has arranged 28 new Agreed charges with shippers, bringing the total in effect at year end to 95. Passenger travel over Cana- dian National lines was about "'thee, same as in 1954, Faster trains like the Super Continen- tal, together with, special tours and incentive fares, offset de- clines in immigrant travel early in the year: The Canadian transportation market is larger and more com- plex, than it was a few years ego, and the CNR, like other carriers, is constantly striving to adjust . its, services to this changing market. The 'process of adjustment can, be seen on many fronts: in new trains and lines and in line abandonments (of which there were, eight to- talling 144 miles in 1955essin the extension of "piggy-backl ,serv- ice and incentive loading rates, in faster freight and passenget• movement through dieselizetiOn, in dinettes and coffee shop cars which in 1955 served 20 per.cent of Canadian National train meals, and in 'the addition Of truck routes for better service through integratiOn of road, and rail transport. Throughout the system, many long-needed' improvements are being made, enhancing its abil- ity to render good service and strengthening its, basic earning power. These physical, advances are being, made all across Canada. Cape Breton Island was linked 'to the mainland 'by rail and '.road for the first time in 1955, .on completion of the' Canso Cause- way. Extension of rail lines was supplemented.955 by wide- spread rnociffidAtiOns in loconio- tive facilities -and in passing tracks ;to get the most out of new diesel motive power. Moreover, some 200 ' diesel-elec- tric lodomotives Were .put in service elong with about a thou- sand. new freight and passenger cars. Four additional diesel Railiners began operating in Quebec and Alberta. 4 q". it, Barclay Warren, OA, OA Godia concern for SInnere Luke 15:1-10 Memory $election: The $on man is tome to seek and to sAvc that which is lost.

Vaughan read a paper about it to colleagues At the annual state medical con- ference. it caused a stir in rnedi- cal circles, but not half the stir it caused in the legal world" One Sunday morning, months After the operation.. Kelly was swinging in his hammock in the garden when a tall, soberly clad stranger in a black hat ap- proached, "Are you Mr, George Kelly?" he asked pleasantly. • "Saxe," said Kelly, "and, who other might you be thinking I am?" "I am so glad' to have found you," said the man, pushing a long rolled document into Kel- ly's hand, "because this is for you." And with that he wished him a polite geode-day, Not many letteSs addressed to him started with the word "whereas," and when he had digested the "heretofores" and the "inasmuches" he realized that he had neen saddled with a +summons. He leapt from the hammock as if stung by a wasp, and wav- ing the paper he pelted' into the h9,use, gasping, "Shelagh, ,x,ny love, they're going to take me knee away from nee!" For the summons stated that because permission had not been obtained from Albrecht's rela- tives, Kelly's knee-cap was still the legal possesaion of the dead man's heirs—and they claimed it! For two weeks Kelly sat in court while lawyers quibbled. In the witness box Doe. Vaughan admitted that he had not asked permission to perform the op- eration but protested that be really had •no alternative. "The knee," he argued,. "was of no use to the"dead man and I simp- ly -Couldn't wait till his relatives arrived. It would have been' too late," The jury-, after going into a huddle for three hours, return- ed this astonishing verdict: "We find Dr. Vaughan guilty of stealing' a- man's knee, and he's- got 16 give it back' to the heirs." "Nonsense!" thundered Judge Penning, "Dr. Vaughan is not on trial. As for,returning the knee- cap to their, heirs,7-ehe court has no patience with such rubbish." That seemed to settle the mat- ter beyond all doubt. But Kelly's jubilation was soon shattered. "The knee belongs to Hans Albrecht, not his heirs," the judge continued. "Further — *they have no right to demand it. The "'rights of a dead man cannot be set against those of the living. That is one of the Oldest principles in law. ."Onethe other hand,'" he in- formed a shocked court, "Kelly has nice right under law to re- tain possession of , the knee. He may either restore the cap to its original owner — burying it under surveillance of officers of this court -- or he may pay a fixed rental for it to the heirs of Hans Albrecht." The lawyer for the plaintiffs interrupted. "Why does your Honoute,,eule tnat the bene must btiried?" 4.1 -+ "I have heard it suggested," said judie...

Electricity required has been about one le.w.h. per square foot of floor space for mid-Summer brood- ing. The incidence of crooked toes has been' reported from some sources to be very high under infra-red lamps but there is no clear evidence at the Farm that there ,are appreciably more crbolsecl toes under infrasred brooding than in pens with floor radiant heating. Results of a survey conducted in the United States •indicate that the average cost of fuel was slightly over five cents per chick with chicks started in De- cember. The tests were taken` in various parts of the country with different types of brooders. Satisfactory results' can be obtained with many' different methods .of, brooding. Cost of equipment and cost and can- venience of operation with con- sideration of the fire hazard in- volved, are likely tp be the deciding factors in the method selected. Ishelortont consideration in brooding chicks include such things as cost of fuel, fire haz, ard, and efficiency of . operation. Where individual brooder stoves are used which burn wood, coal, oil or gas, some chance of fire exists, -although modern oil and gas brpodees do have valuable safety features. For. this, reason many operators consider it wise to use brooder stoves only in colony houses. Thus if fire should start it can be usually confined to one small house "and the loss is not toe serious. Large operators, how, ever, find that labour efficience is reduced with this type of brooding because automatic Wat- - ering systems cannot be easily installed, in colony houses and more labour is required ,„for several small etnits than for a large one. A large brooder house can be heated with a central heating plant. The extra initial cost over several email units is likely to be more than repaid in a few years by savings in fuel and labour. The risk of fiee involved in brooding can be. practically eliminated by proper installa- tion of the central heating plapt in a fire resisting section of the building. Electric brooders of various types • have become popular- with amen or medium size producers. Qne type„ ill .which ,soil heating• eable embedded the con- crete floor, has been used at the Experimental Farm, Fredericton, N.B., since 1949: This-neethod .of.. brooding is very. conv,eraept ,and,,,, gives setiefactoey results bile coet,whe.ee the entire floor area is heated, is likely to be high. Electricity required for one hatch`' using this type of brood, ing, has varied between 4 k.w.h, per scalar& fobt for mid-winter latooding. LCommercial broiler growers usually allow one square foot of floor space per chick. With this method, it would be necessary to brood two or more chicks per square foot of floor space for the first two to three ,weeks, in order to keep ctietele within reasonable limits:, • After, ..this period the chicks do pot.require• so • much, "Sure, your Honour," grinned. Kelly,- "I'll rent the knee."," "Good," said the judge, "them you will pay one dollar every, month to Albre-cht's brothers-. for as long as you make ute et his knee-cap. If you should 'out- live them the rental will cease; for they cannot will suele pro- perty to their heirs.'s So ended one of the queerest cases in all legal history. of ten years Of + selecfQ testing of lines develop'6d 'fieem A epees between , the Bounty and, ;Rutgers svereetiee..

Blocks exposed for two months under summer pasture conditions lost all their iodine in spite of. such 'treat- ments. Two compounds containing an available source of iodine proved relatively stable under both stall and summer. pasture Con- ditions. One of them, potassium iodate, proved to be 'cheaper ' than the other. Salt blocks were made up' to contain 0.015 per cent and 0.50 per ecent iodine, anti tested by the Department's animal ;pathologists who gave the iodate a clean bill of health. Permission to use notassium iodate has now been granted by Food and Drug Officials and when salt blocks containing this compound are produced corn- -,inercially, farmers can 'be. as- sured of a stable source Of iodine, for their livestock. , Ferguson p. new tomato va- riety produced by the Horticul- tural laivision, Central Experi- mental .Farm, Canada Departs enent of Agriculture, Ottawa, 'is ' especially stilted to the needs of canning' crop growers in On- •tario: The Variety is the result A 4 I, "H 41'CROcCWORD' * 4. 7.
