WEST TO KINGSVILLE
Prospective shortage of crude
oil will not affect propane gas
production for a year or more.
The Dominion company has signed
ee contract with a Montreal firm
for 1,200,000 gallons of liquid
propane. The company has suf-
ficient on hand to fill the order.
No solution to the heating prob-
lem in Hamilton has been found
as yet, Mr. Crozier said, and "a
very serious situation" is expect-
ed in that city this winter. He
said steps have been taken to
meet peak loads in the Winclsor-
Chatham area.

Vitamin K .)
Is "Sunshine"
Vitamin D, the "sunshine vita-
min" which is manufactured in the
skin on direct exposure to the sun's
ultra -violet rays, is something of a
puzzler. Science doee not yet know
exactly how much you need, and
you have no way of knowing exact-
ly how much you get. But one thing
is very clear; .it is indispensable.
Vitamin D Is so important dur-
ing growth that some foods, par-
ticularly milk, have had this 'vita-
min added to them. Milk is now
enriched with D by several meth-
ods. One is by exposing a thin
layer of milk to strong ultra -violet
light which activates sterols in the
milk just as sunshine, activates the
sterols. in the skin. Milk is also
fortified by the direct addition of
D concentrates. Still another
method is to add the vitamin to the
feed given cows and chickens so
'that the milk, butter an'cl eggs will
be high in Vitamin D.
You can't always depend on get-
ting your share of Vitamin D from
these uitfa-violet rays. In the ear-
ly spring and late fall they are weak
—and in the winter, weaker still.
In winter, they're only 'about one -
twelfth as strong as in summer.
So you have to store up enough in
summer to lest through the winter,
The ultra violet light cannot pass
through ordinary glass. Fog, smoke
and dust are further hindrances.
Clothing makes a difference, too.
Even the strong ultra -violet light
of summer can get through only
one layer of light clothing. If you
depend upon a sun lamp, keep in
mind that it deteriorates and
should be checked regularly
Quints Are Soon
To Study English
The Dionne quintuplets noon

Rogers, Deputy Minister of Edu-
cation for Ontario, said in a let-
ter to the Grand Orange Lodge
of Ontario \Yeet. The letter was
in answer : to an inquiry 'by the
lodge- as eto whether the quints'

The quints have been taught
only French '9n accordance with
the opinion of educational auth-
orities that children should have
a thorough groundwork in their
mother tongue before being
taught any other language," Dr.
Rogers said.

•D HEARD?
The prisoner was on trial for
stealing ducks. His coutsel ad-
dressed the jury at great length,
pointing out, firstly, that it had
not been proved conclusively that
the prosecutor had lost any ducks;
secondly, that the ducks found .in
the prisoner's cottage were not'
those of the prosecutor; thirdly,
that the prisoner had established
an absolute alibi.
•Just as the judge began to
sum up, .the prisoner interposed
and asked if he might say some-
thing,
As an indulgence, this was per-
mitted.
"All I want to say," remarked
the prisoner, "is that I wish I'd
never seen the• darned ducks."

"No; what was it?"
"Well, Edith found that look-

CHECK GAS GANGRENE
.A. new treatment toward the con-
trol of gas gangrene has been dis-
covered by two members of the
medical faculty of Queen's Univer-
sity at I{ingston, Ont., Dr.. G. B.
' Reed and Dr. J. H. Orr. Their find-
ings recently were published in
Lancet, British medical journal.
The doctors developed a treat-
ment which resulted in a startling
decline in the mortality rate among
guinea pigs virulently infected
with gas gangrene, an infection
said to rank with streptococcus as
the greatest cause of death among
wounded soldiers.
Sulphanilamide, sulphapyridine
and sulphathiazole were used to
control the infection, with the lat-
ter being found the most effective.

PREVENTION OF DIABETES
.A. new method for the prevention
of diabetes was described last
'week before the U. S. Academy of
Sciences at Philadelphia.
The new method consists of de-
termining the disease in its early
stages and immediately giving the
patient insulin doses.
The physicians said this method
was directly apposite that prac-
ticed by most physicians who treat
an early diabetic merely by re-
stricting the amount of sugar and
then giving insulin only when nec-
essary.

SEVER "WORRY NERVES"
More than fifty "hopelessly" in-
sane persons are living and back
at work because they had their
brains cut in a new wizardry of
surgery.
It is a "forgetting" operation,
or, as Mr. Walter Freeman and Dr.
James W. Watts of Washington,
all it, a "bleaching of the
brain" because it wipes out all the
dark spots of memory which cause
extreme nervousness, worr3', men-
tal upsets, and psychosis..
The operation cuts the "worry
nerves" of the brain running back
from the forehead to the central
and rear parts of it.

Will Alleviate
Heating Crisis
New Natural Gas Plant T',

age in a Wide Area of Or%
tario This Winter
Construction of a $300,004
plant for the Dominion Natural
Gas Co. at Brantford, for the pro7
duction of gas from propane, a
by-product of crude petroleum
will start immediately. It will
alleviate a gas heating shortage
in a wide Ontario area, A, R.
Crozier, provincial gas cominis
sioner has announced.
Piping has already been ordered
for the Brantford plant and a pro-
duction of 3,000,000 cubic feet
per day is anticipated.
Propane has a higher heating
value than natural gas and miX-
ture for use is approximately 511
per cent. natural gas, 26 per
cent. propane and 25 per cent.
air.
"We have high hopes this pro-
pane production will take care of
the shortage on the Dominion sys-
tem," said Mr. Crozier. The sys-
tem serves St. Catharines, Port
Colborne, Preston, Galt, Wood
Wood-
stock, Ingersoll, St. Thomas, Till-
sonburg, Dunnville and as far
west as Leamington and' Kings-
ville.
