Asks For Radiobeacon—
Pursuing the appeal of Great Lakes
mariners to have a radiobeacon sta-
tioned at 'Goderich. G. L. ,Parsons,
president of the Goderich Elevator &
Transit Company, Ltd., has written
authorities pointing out the inadequ-
acy pf proper direction -bearing equip-
ment on the 'Canadian side of the
Great Lakes. There are thirty-nine
American stations, while Canada ols-
erates only eight. Although there is
a foghorn at Goderich, its 'range is
only about eight mile, and the main
purpose ;of a radin-he.acon at Goder-
ich would he to guide steamers to the
port, as well a. to ensure a safe pa,
eage for steamers plying up and down
Lake Huron. Mariners also urge that
a green flashing light be established
on the email -breakwater at the gap,
opposite the lighthouse, and that a
red port light be placed at the bead
of the elevatere, which have an alti-
tude of liar fe•et.

TES PES
The potato is pre-eminent among
he vegetables used for 'food Not
only does the potato furnish consider-
able nutriment but supplies it in an
easily digestible form, because the
starch in potatoes is more readily
cli-
tgested than the starch of some other
tarch-produ•cing foods. The mineral
ontained in potEttoes is relatively
-- !larger in proportion to other foods.
