Column Prepared Especially for Women
But Not Forbidden to, Men
So persistent has been the efferb on
-the part of dress designers to bring
back the long, flowing ekirut, to foist
upon women the whole, former atro-
city of long shirt, tight -fitting bodice,
with its accompanying stiff corset,
that an ;eminent English surgeon, 'Sir
wf illiam Arbubhnot Lane, one of the
world's most distinguished surgeons,
indeed, has come out on the side of
those women who are resisting the
-designing designees. He is quoted as
:saying; •
"I must congratulate these women
who have announced their intention
to resist a return to long skirts.
Women have reached an advanced
stage in Sensible and heaithy clothing
It would be an infinite pity if they
went hack. Long skirts and tight
bodices belong to a different era. The
active modern women would lose a
great deal in comfort:, health and ap-
pearance if she adopted these fash-
•.ions."
Women should keep in mind the
fact that it is designers of fashions
and manufactures of cloth who are
behind this long skirt fad, There are,
of course, some women who always
-wish to be different from others and
who will adopt any new fashion, no
matter how extreme, ridiculous or un-
lovely. And women's fashions have
changed :so little during the pasb few
e h designing years, the d gn g of a dress has
'been such a simple affair and the
making took so little material that
designers and manufactures have felt
tale shrinkage in business and are out
to ehnnge things. If women are fool-
ish enough, after having learned the
comfort and healthfulness of wearing
loosely -fitting clothing which does
not hamper their movements, to go
back to the confining corset, the
• long, insanitary and hampering skirt,
with its accompaniment of under-
skirts, then they are not as sensible
• as I have been giving then credit for.
''But they won't do it, of that I feel
-confident
I have been askied for directions
for knitting a sock toe, the sort we
'used to knit diming the war, and
thinking that"perhaps several of our
readers would like to have ahem, we
are publishing full directions for
g
knitting a sock. These arse the dir-
ections given out during the war for
knitting the socks most desired and
appreciated by the soldiers. Anyone
wishing to have these kindly clip and
preserve:

THE' CLINTON NEWS -RECORD'
NEWS AND INFORMATION
FOR THE BUSY FARMER
(Furnished by the Ontario Department of Agriculture)
Canadian abutter leaves rove fon
improveiment both in quality and
quantity. This .improvement, accord-
ing to a prominent dairy aublioritS
, f
;will be brought about by improving
/
the -quality , of the new. material i
through paying a higher price to the
producer.
Uniform Price and Quality
Prof. H. H. Dean of 0. A.C, has
some timely advice for dittribetors
of milk _ and other clalry products.
Le deelares that milk and milk' pro-
ducts .of good :quality provided at a
fair and uniform price iihro?ghout
the year will satisfy the consuming
public better than variations in qual-
ity and price. Hie 'suggests the fel-
levying aids in this direction: Day;
light and no "niooniight" delivery,
the use of mono -service bottles for
milk, cartons for pound print butter,
'sell varieties of cheese like cottage
and -thus use profitably the skim -
milk, -the "zone" system to save tie -
plication of milkroutes, and coir-
teous' consideration of customers by
all drivers and :salesinen.
Winter Care of Pigs
The plain factorsin the success-
ful rearing of pigs during the win-
ter months are: •
1. Early litters. Pigio Intended
for winter feeding should be far-
rowed not later than the mouth of
September. ' This gives them time
for a good start before cold weather.
2. Clean you'd. A good clover.
field or yard with clover sod is ideal.
for then to run in. A.void all old
yards and wallows.
3. Clean and dry sleeping quar-
ters. These should be entirely free
from draughts, but provided with
ventilation.
4. Suitable rations. From wean-
ing until four months of age, the
bellowing ration will be satisfac-
tory: • 200 pounds of finely ground
oats, 200 pounds of middlings, 50
pounds of wheat bran, 50 pounds of
barley 'or corn, 15 pounds each cif
linseed oil nlbal and tankage, 5
pounds of bone char and three pounds
of salt. This should always be fed
as a warm slop nixed with skim
milk or buttermilk. As the pigs get
older increase the proportion of
barley or corn. Be very careful not
to overfeed; every meal should be
till cleaned . up quickly and more
looked for. A supply Y l of Alfalfa or
clover hay should be on hand at all
tines, and a few nangels or apples
given daily. Keep all pe'a's dean
and supply drinking writer each day.
The Scrub Bull
In a recent address on the scrub
bull and its effect on the dairy in-
dustry', W. E. Thompson, president
of the Ontario Cattle Breeders'
Assoeiatiost elainned that a scrub
sire was a liability to the breeder.
The good purebred sire was the
logical one to head a herd, since
with a registered sire: there are
greater `dhanees of getting [results
in the way of building up the herd
than when a grade or inferior breed
is used. The purebred has a long
line of descent of the one breed. Mr.
Thompson declared -that a eow must
give at least 6,000 pounds of milk
to pafor
her keep.Better breeding
g
and better feeding are ndessary to
Profitable returns in his opinion.
The Export Market
W. A. Wilson, Agricultural Pro-
dncts "Representative for Canada in
Great Britain who has been spend-
ingsome months in Canada, ar-
dressing agricultural organizations
and service clubs, emphasizes the
inmate -nee of a steady volume of
export in order to hold the market.
The limit in consumption has by
no means been reached, he decl:lyes.
Canada's position in the world is
beicornieg increasingly dependent
upon 'her ability to hold her own
in world competition. In reference
to t hnada's exports rif agricultur-
al produce Mr. Wilson points out
that these have shown, a market
tendency to decrease in recentyears.
unless Canada can maintain a policy
of supplying a reasonable volume
for exports to the British Isles, the
inroads made by foreign competitors
willbecome still More Serious.
- Ontario Makes Ready
Hon: John S. Martin is chair-
man of :a committee just named' to
see that Ontario is represented at
the World's Grain Show in Regina
in 1932' by lser' outstanding Brain
i 'ibwill e
producers. Special bons be
awarded at all fairs in the province
for high-clase. exhibits and all exhib-
itors will be givien every considera-
tion. ,The,contimittee will build up a
list: of men who have done wellat
leading shows in the past and add
others who, appear to nave a chance
in competition with the best of other
countries. At the Chicago show On-
tenni
n-t nni annexed 30 awsr:ds, ,and the
Department will try to beat this
record and bring home some of the
$200.000 offered in prizes, A sub-
committee bus also been appointed
to ,see that prospective exhibitors
secure the very best seed available.
Canadians Milk Drinkers A
Stuttiat)ios have :shown, that Can-
adians eat more butter and eggs
per capita than the people cif any
other country. A recent survey
shows -.that elle of ,the favorite bleu -
tangos of the people of Canada is
milk. '1`o satisey thisdemand' for
fresh milk alone over 4,625,000 gal
Ione per• year, er about one pint per
head of population per day is re-
quired. This should serve to give
some. idea of the prominence which
valise of Canadian dairy products ex-
ce'eds 290 millions annually,
Change weed Act Regulations
The Hon. John S. Martin has an-
nounced chance inthe regulation of
the Ontario Weed Act to be effective
this` year.
Void superintendents or foremen
will nod: be eligible for appointment
as weed inspectors. The reason afar
thisregulation is that the weed. in -
'Teeter must report on bhe • enforce-
ment m the! Act with 'respect to
roads.
To simplify enforcement of the act'
the following less -important weeds
in Ontario have beenrenioved from
the noxious liet:
Cinquelfoiig (potentilla sat), field
peppergrass (lepidium campestre),
stickseed (lappula eehinata), Rus-
sian thistle (salsele, kali), wild bar-
ley (hordeun jubetuni).
Mtnnieipal councils are encouraged
to appoint men capable of giving
leadership in an educational way.
'Weed problems are not simple and
the best men available are essential
if progress is `to the made. It is not
sufficient, for a council to appoint a
man and instruct him to wait for
complaints before taking action.

UNITY ANI) CO-OPERATION
A community is as big as the faith of the residents make it.
This faith is evident in the unity which exists between merchant
andbuyer.Ifdissension invades the community and
people
go
to nearby cities to purchase their goods the growth of the town
is retarded and it is ultimately relegated to the "has-been" class.
When the merchant and the resident forget personal differences and
unite their purposes for the common trade, it is a certain. sign 'that
that community is listed asiiong the "booming."
Think in terms of yens local merchants, and deeide to buy in
Clinton. Petty personal grievances are things of %too little signi-
ficance to Pet them interfere with the progress of the town which
you call home. If you trust your merchant he will prove himself
loyal to you. The decision is yours to make, Shall you buy out-
side Clinton and see the town fall behind, or will you buy at home
and witness this community -:advance?
Your patronage spells your confidence in your merchants who
are responsible for the leading position you.. town enjoys. If you
give them your support, merchant 'and resident will unite for the
good of this town, and the result will prove that the only tree way
to sueoess is by united effort. Your dollars which you pay to your
local grocer, butcher, clothier or milkman, will stay in Canton and
-will ultimately come back to you.
