King Retires The retirement of Mr. King on Monday marks the end of an era in Canada. Mr. King resigned after more than twenty-one years as Prime Minister, during which he guided the country through war and its. aftermath. Regardless of the feelings of indi- viduals with respect to the manner )n which he provided leadership - 'And like all great men he excited an :immediate liking or a disliking in the minds of the average citizen - all will join in wishing him full re- covery of his health, and many years in which to enjoy his well-earned • leisure. It will be the historians' task to assess Mr. King's place in the his- tory of Canada. There is little doubt, however, that as the years pass his stature will increase in the eyes of Canada and of the world. The lead- ership that welded the diversified population of Canada into the fight- ing force that so effectively con- tributed to the successful conclusion i f World War II, both on the home front and on the battlefield, will not go unrecognized. So, too, with re- gard to the social legislation which hefathered through the years. At the same time as the Nation bids farewell to Mr. King, it salutes Mr. St. Laurent on his assumption of the highest place in the Govern- ment. His task will not be an easy one, but with the continued applica- tion of those democratic principals for which Liberalism stands, its suc- cess is assure. • Poor Toronto Poor Toronto is once more being singled out and forced to suffer in- convenience while the rest of the Province enjoys itself at the `ex- pense of the city. Or so it seems to Mayor McCallum, according to a re- port carried in the daily press. Mayor McCallum was discussing the hydro shortage and how it af- fects Toronto, when he said: "We believe we're not getting our just share of power. For instance, our hospitals, which serve the whole area, should be removed from our quota. Our bread companies, our newspapers and other industries, serve the whole area and save other municipalities- the power they would otherwise consume producing them." It is difficult to see how Toronto differs from any other city or town in Ontario, except in the matter of size. Seaforth has a hospital, which serves the whole area; bread baked here saves hydro which bakers or housewives in other centres would otherwise use; this newspaper cov- ers the entire district. If Mayor McCallum's reasoning was carried to its logical conclusion, the Ontario 'Hydro Power Commission would al- lot power to municipalities on the basis of size, without regard to past consumption. If such a course were to be followed by the H.E.P.C., the little power that would remain for he use of towns like Seaforth would ardly be enough to permit the turn- ing' • of of lights for more than a few .hours a day. Presumably in rural hens where there are- no hospitals or bakeries, the quota under Mayor likeallum's suggestion would be nil. As a matter of fact, Toronto by fere virtue of its size and the nature its loado .should be in a better posi- to ration its allotted quota -smaller fnnnici .paiities where a onn n account for the t')entire • or: ion �� t axe ntre con- 1•, s r ,1`1lit T() Y fl permits if ed toad c S i t eat eductions in 11 an, equitable manner and to a degree, sufficient to meet its quota, Accepting as a fact• the necessity of drastically reducing "hydro con- sumption, :and without quering' the factors leading to the unfortunate condition in which we find .ourselves, there can be no doubt bun that the most equitable manner of allotting the available power is as a percent- age of the amount used in a previous year. Any move on the part of the H.E. F.C. to conform with Toronto's sug- gestion will meet with strong op- position from all sections of the Province. The relatively few indus- tries in Seaforth, or Goderich, or Clinton, are just as important to the economies of these towns as the many, located in that city, are to To- ronto. It is just as important and as vital to the country as a whole for a farmer to continue to light his hen house and pump his water, as it is for Toronto to be permitted to pass\ through this critical period incon- vencienced only to the extent that it considers desirable. Size is not ev- erything. • A New Prince Citizens of the English-speaking world will rejoice in the birth of a baby to Princess Elizabeth on Sun- day. The birth of a child to the King's daughter, she being Heiress -Pre- sumptive to the Throne, is unique in British history, according to the Stratford Beacon -Herald, as it re- views the significance of the arrival of the new Prince. The only parallel dates back to March 25, 1133, the date of the birth of the future King Henry II,. son of Geoffrey Plantagenet, Count of An- jou, and his wife Maud, only surviv- ing child of Henry I. But that is not a precedent, for the rules of strict hereditary succession were not then established, and it was still in dispute whether a woman could either inherit or transmit to her chil- dren a title to the Crown. It is worth noting, too, that Prin- cess Elizabeth's baby will be the first grandchild of the King and Queen, and the first great-grandchild of the Queen Mother. It is also the first Royal birth to take place since the, passing of the British Nationality Act, 1948, which causes the child to be born a "citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies," and to be- come a British subject only by virtue of that citizenship. The child will be a Prince and also a Royal Highness, The Beacon - Herald continues, since the King has just issued letters of pat- ent under the Great Seal of the Realm stating that "the children of the aforesaid marriage shall have and at all time hold and enjoy the style, title or attribute of Royal Highness and the titular dignity of Prince or Princess prefixed to their respective Christian names in addi- tion to any other appellations and titles of honor which may belong to them hereafter." While the baby is a boy, he will not be called the Prince of Wales. This is a title reserved for the eldesrchild of the reigning Sovereign. Even then the title is not hereditary. It is conferred only by the sovereign's personal grant. As succession to the. throne is hereditary, sons and their descend- ants have precedence over daugh- ters of the sovereign.. Daughters and their descendants have prece- dence over lateral lines. Any child of Princess Elizabeth, whether boy or girl, takes precedence over her younger sister, Princess Margaret. So, since Princess Elizabeth is 'first in the ine of succession to the throne, her first child will be second in succession to the throne. • Radio Licenses St. Marys Journal -Argus) Each year federal inspectors make a descent upon a few centres, make a few house to house calls and pick off a few citizens who have radios but have neglected to renew their licenses.

It was the • time of my annual p11- grinage to the shrine of the ick prance company that •holda the mortgage on the farm. Having un- loaded a bale of cash. I was pre- pared to go and poke through a department store, attend a movie possibly, and then after dinner catch the night train home. Outside the insurance company office I bumped into John Peter McNamara. He used to live in our township and be later moved to the city where he works' for a farm: supply house as a traveller. He pressed me to go up to iasis place for dinner. I yielded, part- ly because my feet were getting sore, and partly because I •always liked John Peter. We were just finishing aupper- and a good meal it was-wthen the light went out. There was a scramble to light candles and the kids started raising a .rumpus. It was utter confusion that reigned in that home, as Mrs. McNamara upset the coffee pot and John Pet- er tripped over the electric cord and brought a lamp hurtling down. Finally a dim candle illuminated 'the room. In three-quarters of an hour the light was to be restored. It made me realize sitting in the gloom of that house, just how corns pletely man now depends on elec- tricity as •his servant. The lights went out, but that was only the start as far as they were concern - B!: Harry J. Boyle was anxious to hear the news. The oil burner wouldn't work, and either would the refrigerator. The clock in the living room stopped, and so did the electric fireplace. The hot water 'Beater wouldn't work. The youngsters brought out a toy train, but it wouldn't budge with the juice cut off. John eveta admitted that his 'fancy, gadget which he put on the garage doors to make them= open. and alone br simply pushing a button, wasalso out of order. They haven't any heat for cooking when the current falls. I have never seen a more helpless group in mgr , life. I wonder how many people sit- ting itting in darkened, homes in the city because of the power shortage, ever :stop to reflect on the situa- tion. I guess it would be too much to hope that the man who pulled the fast deal oft when: he stripped a hundred acres of bushiand, would. ever " think that he had helped caused the shortage. The man who started the 'bush fire could also reflect that he hadn't helped any. The reitred farmer, who tore the life' and soul from his farm to make money, without replenishing anything, might also sitop and think. People don't seem to think about those things. They just sit and fume and•fuss.

Mr. Stuart Knox, who has been spending the last few weeks at his home in Brucefield, has re- turned to work in Flint, Mich - many tigers he had killed. "None at all," he replied sadly.

"Good enough to become an gel!" : Huron Federation Of AgricultureF'armNews Potatoes Are Good Livestock Feed Some farmers in Eastern Can- ada have already begun, to reduce this year's surplus of potatoes by feeding more to their livestock. The Dominion Department of Ag- riculture thoroughly approves this practice, as its experimental sci- entists have faund that animals continue to make gains when pot- atoes replace ;part of their more costly ration. This fall, the livestock owner who has a quantity of unsold or unsaleable ,potatoes can cut down the amount of grain he has to buy. He may feed they potatoes: either raw or he niay inbrease their feed- ing value to pigs by cooking them. Not every farmer, hdwever, has the inclination to cogk" potatoes for livestock. Nor h? his wife, on whom the task som time; falls. By the time she cooks enough to feed her family, she is often con- tent to see the livestock fed on raw potatoes. Incidentally, while some farmers, fearful of their ani- mals choking, like to pulp or chop the potatoes, other successful far- mers serve them whole. • The chief precautions to take in feeding the potatoes are to avoid potatoes that have been frozen or have gone bad. Potato sprouts should not be used, as they are somewhat poisonous. Just one oth- er precaution in feeding potatoes to livestock: Avoid feeding so many that the animals will be scoured. Apart from these precautions, which most farmers observe as a matter of course, the feeding of potatoes to livestock this fall and winter is a good, thrifty habit. The Dominion Department of Agricul- ture says that when fed to dairy cattle, potatoes are as good as mange's. When fed to a beef animal, potatoes can replace up to 20 pounds of silage per day. When fed to swine, 100 pounds of raw potatoes have about the same foodi value as one-fifth that quantity of grain. By adding raw potatoes to a hay and grain ration for fatten- ing lambs their rate of gain is ac- tually increased. Poultry, too, can be • fattened satisfactorily when potatoes replace some of the more expensive ingredients in the fat- tening mixture. Producing Weil -Fleshed Chickens Poultry of market grade is de- termined .partly by surface quality, smoothness, color, fatness and free- dori from blemishes and in addi- tion by body conformation, The latter is primarily a measure of fleshing and particularly fleshing of the breast. Over the past thirty years ap- preciable strides have been made in selecting for egg ,production and egg, size, and for .a long time selec- tion for outvc'ard appearance has, been practised, as exemplified, in the American Standard of Perfec- tion. It is high time that some- thing was done to select for flesh in;g-particularly within existing egg production breeds, says R. Bird, Poultry Division, Central Experimental Parra, Ottawa. In selecting for any given char, - atter, be it barring of feathers or mumberst of eggs, it is an wets a. Milled 'principle to seleet as, breed- ers, reed en- an- ers, birds that have already prov- ed themselves as possessors of the, genetic constitution which it is desired to propagate. Entirely the same is true in selecting for well - fished breast conformation. The procedure would therefore be to segregate any given flock of cock- erels into the various groups' of sons from the breeding sires from last spring and determine which sons excelled in fleshing charac- teristics., The sires of these sons and the best of the sons would then be chosen as next season's breeders. Since a well -fleshed breast is characterized by plumpness and roundness, it is only necessary to measure the width over the breast to get a measure of fleshing. In order to compare large and small birds, this width measurement is then expressed in proportion to the depth of the carcass. For instance when the sons of eleven sires were compared at the Central Experi- mental Farm, says Mr. Bird, the average for all was found 'to be 131.2 millimetres and the average width of breast was 54.4 milli- metres. But for the sons of two sires, thea average widths were 63.3 and )62.0 millimetres, while their depth was slightly below av- erage. There was no doubt that these two sires were significantly superior and similar results would undoubtedly hold for most poultry flocks. e'ti 1946 Wheat Queen To Compete Mrs. A. G. Kelsey, of Erickson, B.C., who was namied Internation- al Wheat Queen in 1946, will again exhibit in the International Grain and Hay Show at Chicago. She will dhow a sample of Re- ward wheat and ten sample earn of Canada Hybrid! corn. It is the first time she has entered corn for exhibition at the International, of- ficials say. Mrs. Kelsey's sample of : wheat in the 1946 show wasjudged the world's best, and it was the first time in show history that a wo- man won this honor. The grain show is held in con- junction with the International, Live Stock Exposition. Canada has long been prominent in the claseee of the International Grain and .Hay Show, many of its exhibitors having been named "kings" and "queens" of various crops at past shows. Sow the Best Only Grain which is to be used for seed must be cleaned thoroughly.
