George Johnston Loses
Cattle Struck By Freight
The wosbbound C.P.R. freight train
was responsible for the killing of two
•of Mr, George Johnston's fine herd of
cows on Tuesday morning about 11.30,
Mr, Johnston had turned his cattle
lout, and unfortunately, the gate to his
private railway crossing, was left op-
en. The cattle, being is a playful
11100(1, struck down the track to the
reamed. Mr. Johnston heard the
freight coming and tried his best to
head the cattle off, but to np avail.
They went across the track, single
file, and creme had crossed the track
In safety before the train struck. Tha
"cow -catcher" on the engine, caught
squarely one of Mr. Johnston's fine
three-year-old heifers, carrying her
down the track until the train stopped.
She wits instantly killed, Another
f'ne cow, just atout made tate crossing
in safety, but not quite, the engine
caught her hind quarter, swinging her
around, and so badly injuring her, that
she had to be killed.
There were eight cattle in the herd~
and the next cow to cross the track,
was just barely able to tomo to a halt
before she struck the train,
The accident Is most unfortunate,
and a costly one for Mr, Johnston.

Webb Held Friday Night
A large number of friends from
Blyth and the surrounding communit•
les, gathered in the Memorial Hall on
(friday night to honour Mr, and Mrs.
Lorne Webb, recent newly-weds, at
a public reception, The inclemency
of the weather kept many from at-
tending, The- reception had been
planned for several dates, but due to
illness, had to bo postponed each time.
A very enjoyable social time was
spent, with dancing being the main
attraction of the evening. Music was
furnished by Prices's Orchestra, A de
lightful lunch was served by the ladies
present.
During the evening Mr, and Mrs.

Keep Separate
When hard and soft coal are being
used together they shouldn't meet
'until they go into the furnace. Sep-
arate the 'bin and keep the soft coal
in one part and the anthracite in an-
other. Proper proeortions of each are
necessary for successful results. When
�tokin'g HP, use three shovels of an-
flhraicite to one of soft coal. Firing

OTTAWA REPORTS
That Agriculture Is The Moat
Important Single Industry of
Canadian People
According to statistics, agricul-
ture in this country employs al-
most 30 per cent of the total gain-
fully occupied population, and
about 34 per cent, or over one-
third of the gainfully occupied
males. It has been said that the
dairy industry is the largest sin-
gle branch of Canadian agricul-
ture,
With this in mind a consider-
able amount of time was given by
the delegates of the recent Da
minion -Provincial conference in
Ottawa to the 1944 objectives of
the dairy industry.
It was estimated that nearly
111,E of every one hundred pounds
of milk produced in Canada dur-
Sng 1943 was marketed in concen-
trated form. During 1944 about
the same proportion and quantity
of milk production will also find
Its way to the condensing plants.•
ThIs will involve the conversion
of some 600,000,000 pounds of milk
into nearly a billion pounds of
concentrated milk products,
• • •
Evaporated whole milk is the
krgest of the concentrated milk
products and of the entire 1943
production about 14% million
pounds was exported to the Unit-
ed Kingdom, 12 million pounds to
its British West Indies and to
Newfoundland, while the remain-
der was consumed by the armed
forces and civilians in Canada.
'lme next largest concentrated
milk product is condensed whole
milk, of which the 1944 produc-
tion goal is set at 24 mllllon
pounds, the same as in 1943. Most
at this product goes to the Brit-
ish West Indies where, with Its
14 per cent sugar content, it keeps

well despite tropical heat, For
whole milk powder, the 1944 ob-
jective is unchanged at 16,800,000
pounds. Its greatest outlet is in
Red Cross parcels for prisoners of
war, a pound to each parcel. Tho
production of skim milk powder
will also remain unchanged from
the estimated 24 million pounds
of last year.

Although Canada stakes some
of the finest cheese in the world,
the average Cnnallan eats com-
paratively little of it. About three
out of every four pounds of cheese
manufactured In Canada is ab-
sorbed by the market in Great
Britain. For generations Cana-
dians have enjoyed the benefit of
this ?3ritish demand for their
cheesq aid have continued to help
meet It during this war. The .gov-
ernment requisitions all cheddar
cheese made In Ontario and Que-
bec for export. For 1944 it is es-
timated that 1.8,390,000 pounds
will be manufactured This quan-
tity Is 61/2 per cent below 1943 but
is at least 20 million pounds
greater than in the average year
Immediately before the war,
• • •
Present indications are that
there will be less butter manu-
factured this year, It appears that
shout 97 pounds of creamery but-
ter will be manufactured in 1944
for every 100 pounds made last
year, and the estimated total is
305 million pounds. Although most
of this will be consumed by civil-
ians, some will be earmarked for
the armed forces and for ships'
stores, some may be exported to
Britain and some will be includ-
ed in Canadian Red Cross par-
cels. During the year the aver-
age civilian will eat about 291,
pounds of butter, this is making
allowance for the extra portions
secured in restaurants.
Great Britain's
Aid To Russia
War matreials of all types have
been given to Russia free of cost
since Germany declared war on
her in 1941, Among many other
things, 4,690 aircraft had been
sent from Britain to Russia by
the end of May, 1943. Goods to
the value of 1170,000,000 have
been sent to Russia. This figure
does not include the very large
expense involved in opening and
maintaining supply routes through
Persia and around the North
Cape, nor the unassessable cost
in ships and men in convoys which
have carried supplies.
THE WAR • WEEK — Commentary on Current Events
Allied Downpour Of Destruction
On Fortress Europa During 1943
The pattern fur the Allied Mr
attack in 194.4 Is clearly demon -
Waled by the heavy assaults on
what remains of Berlin within the
first week of the new year, As
the capitol and nerve centro of
Germany, Berlin has already been
knocked out, says the New York
Times. Some 25,0110 tons of bombs
and incendiaries dropped or
burned half of it, driving most
Government offices into the prov-
ince., and another 20,000 tons are
expected to finish it as Germany's
industrial capital as well.
Results like this, achieved in
the face, and even with the aid,
of weather conditions which only
a short year ago would have made
any raids impossible, aro highly
impressive. '1'110 air enthusiasts
still contend that, given time and
the means, all Germany can he
lcnocked out from the sir alone.
However that may be, It is cer-
tain that the bombers have creat-
ed conditions in Germany which
not only helped the Russians
achieve their great victories but
are also making fusible an invas-
ion of Europe from the west.
These 'conditions could be created
only by the air arm, without which
an invasion would have been im-
possible.
"Downpour" Figures
How this was done is lllustrat•'
ed by the figures published at the
turn of the year. They show that
during the past year the B.A.F.
dropped a total of 155,000 tons on
Axis territory, of which 135,000
fell on Germany, The United
States Eighth Air Force dropped
55,000 tons on Axis territory, and
the Northwest African Strategic
Air Force more than 74,000 tons,
This makes a combined total for
1943 of 284,000 tons, compared
with only 14,000 tons in 1940, 33,-
000
3;000 tons in 1941, and some 60,000
tons In 1942. In contrast, Germany
has been able to drop only 75,000
tons on Britain throughout the
whole war.
According to the calculations of
the ]3ritish Bomber Command,
this Allied downpour of destruc-
tion has knocked out twenty-four
German towns, including such
cities as Hamburg, Bremen and
the whole !lulu' area, and severe-
ly damaged twenty more. What
Is equally important, the Allied
air assault has forced Germany to
concentrate 70 per cent of her
fighter strength in the West. Of
this the Eighth Air Force reports
4,100 fighters destroyed, 911
more probably destroyed and
1,521 damaged. The Northwest Af-
rican Comnnand reports 3,110
planes shot down and 2,426 de-
stroyed on the ground. The R,A.F.
reports 232 night fighters de-
stroyed and hundreds more dam-
aged. This makes a grand total of
around 12,000 German planes put
out of action during the year,
which is probably equal to Ger-
many's total production in that
category.
Technical Advances
These results have been achiev-
ed in part as a result of technical
advances which have converted
the clouds hanging over Germany
from a handicap into an asset,
forcing from Hitler the reluctant
admission that "In the sphere of
technical Inventions the scales In
1943 were possibly tilted In favor
of our enemies." What these in-
ventions are Is, of course, a sec-
ret, But the pathfinder planes
which unerringly find their tar-
gets, and ring these targets with
flares for the following bomb-
erS, give a suggestion of what
Hitler 'nears. Having lost the
naval war, Germany has also lost
the air war. And the loss of these
two wars spells her doom in the
and war as well.
Crucial Period for Reich
In Europe the U.S. Eighth Air
Force co-operating with the RAF
and the RCAF has stretched the
Luftwaffe to the breaking point.
Lieutenant General Arnold, chief
of United States Army Air Forces,
foresees the time In tine near fu-
ture when tho battle attrition of
enemy planes, together with the
destruction of factories building
fighter planes and parts, will
bring "a crucial period which may
determine the survival or destruc-
tion of the Luftwaffe as an effec-
tive fighting force." What that
would mean can only be cstin►at-
od, but with all Germany at the
mercy of our bombers, it Is
doubtful If the Nazis could long
sustain their armies in the field
or the morale of their eivilian
population. Certainly the cost of
invading Europe and liberating its
conquered people would be far
loss,
It would he it tragedy if that
opportunity presented itself and
we were unable to take advantage
of it. But there Is a limit to the
endurance of both Wren and ma-
chines. Tho time comes when
planes have to be taken nut of
action for overhaul and repair,
and when strained nerves and
bodies must be given a chance to
rest, The Luftwaffe learned that
1n the autumn of 19.10, when, in
beating down the ]RAF's gallant
defence of Britain, it exhausted
itself and was unable to turn a
tactical success into a strategic
victory.
More Planes Needed
It Is the feat' of Allied air corn -
menders that before the great
land battle opens for the libera-
tion of Europe there will be a
chance to win It in the air, but
that for lack of replacements of
crows and planes they may have
to hold back and give the enemy
that breathing space which some-
times means the difference be-
tween victory and defeat. Gen,
Arnold issued a solemn warning
Against permitting any lag in the
United States scheduled produc-
tion of 145,000 planes In the next
fifteen months,
"Not one of our air forces has
the planes it should have," Bliss
General Arnold. "Every one could
use double the number it now
possesses. The biggest battles in
the air and on land aro yet to be
fought. Wo will need every plane
we can produce."

Influenza Epidemic
An Ancient Enemy
The first recorded epidemic of
influenza is believed to bo that
described by Hippocrates in 412
B.C.t� states the New York Her-
ald Tribune, By the Middle Ages
medical descriptions had become
sufficiently standardized so that
the epidemic of 1173 could be
definitely authenticated as In-
fluenza.
The epidemic of 1918-19 caste
in three waves, the _first and last
of which were relatively light in
respect ot fatalities in most coun-
tries. For a time during the
World War influenza and the
various disease; that followed it,
such as pneumonia ,took higher
toll on the battlefields than did
bullets, The total deaths through-
out the world from influenza and
the diseases to which it contrib-
uted in 1918-19 was estimated to
be as high as 25,000,000.
ROYAL BANK'S ASSETS
PASS $11/2 BILLIONS
New high records In practically
all departments are revealed by
the Royal Bank of Canada for the
year ended Nov, 30, Total assets,
which a year ago reached the high.
est point in the hank's history,
now stand at $1,509,097,571 as
compared with $1,291,015,9.10 on
Nov, 30, 1942. Deposits likewise
reached a now high level, and now
total $1,380,769,152, an increase of
more than $216,000,000,
Current loans in Canada aro
over $.22,700,000, at $277,921,237.
This increase Is due largely to
increased borrowing by the public
for the purchase of the Fifth Vic-
tory Loan, Apart from this, many
firms found it unnecessary to
borrow because of rapid turn-
over and prompt settlement of
accounts in connection with war
produetion, Furthermore inven-
tories are, generally speaking,
lower.
Loans outside Canada show a
moderato reduction.
Quickly realizable assets equal
75.09 per cent. of the hank's lia-
bilities to the public. There has
been at marked expansion In 11(1111(1
assets which now total $1,10.4,703,-

amounted to $3,426,289, a moder-
ato inert .se over the figure for
the previous year, From these
profits dividends amounting to
$2,100,000 were paid. For the
pension fund an appropriation of
$370,000 was set aside and $100,000

was reaped recently by British
newspaper men who interviewed
three American farmers who had
travelled 5,000 miles in Britain,
Oscar Hotline of Marcus, Iowa,
said: "The British farmer is
fonder of work than we are. He
will walk behind a machine, We
won't."

1'HE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time, All of for dkeourses of
our lesson were nttered in the
autumn of .11t, _'h,
Place,—The discourses Vero all
delivered around the shores of
the sen of Galilee.
Parable of the Sower
"And again he hr'gan to teach
by the sea side. And there Is
gathered unto hint a very great
multitude, so that lie entered foto
a boat, and sat In the sea; and
alt the nulltitude were by the sea
on the laud, And ho taught thonh
many things in parables, and said
unto them in his teaching."
A parable 1s a short moral or
religious story of which the moral
lesson ie the substance. Parables
have always been popular in the
East. The rabbis commonly Kogan
to teach the young disciple in
parables, Our Lotel reversed their
method, Ho began by the simple
~words of the Sermon ou the
Mount, then a change came, and
Jle spoke in payable when He
found the hardheartedness of tho
people.
The Sower and The Seed
"Ifearken: Itehold, the sower
went forth to sow." The seed 19,
as the account of this parable
Indicates, nothing loss than the
very Word of God, Ae we shall
, see later, the Word has lite, as a
sped has life, and therefore It 1e
able to produce something living
in the hearts where it is implant.
i ed.
By The Way Side
"And it carte to pass, as he
sowed, some seed fell by the way
side, and the birds canto and de-
voured it." Tho parable here pre-
sents nothing unusual, It is simp-
ly the picture of it man lu Pales-
tine with a bag of seed over his
shoulder, casting the seed until
the field 1s sown, Some of the
seed naturally will fall by the
way side, that is, on a beaten path
where the ground 19 hard, and
where the seed cannot grow, As
the seed is only safe from Cowl
when burled in the soil, so is the
Word of life only safe against
evil when it has sunk deep down
into our hearts.
On Rocky Ground
"And another fell on the rocky
ground, where 11 had not much
earth; and straightway it sprang
ttp. because it had no deepness of
earth: and when the sun was ris-
en, it was scorched; and because
it had no root, It withered away."
Nearness to the warm surface In-
duced rapid growth, but it also
led to the shortening of the young
plant's life. The shallowness of
the soil did not permit the plant
to develop its roofs, So with sten,
the sante shallowness of nature
which guide them susceptible to
the gospel and quickly respons-
ive, mikes them susceptible to
pain, suffering, hardship, and
easily defeated. it le so in all do.
',ele bents of life.
Among The Thorns
".And others fell among the
thorns, and the thorns grew up,
and choked it, and it yielded no
frust." These thorns our Lord lik-
ens to the cares of the world, and
the deceitfulness of riches, and
the lusts of other things, Tho
idea here Is that whoever lets
these worries fill his heart will
surely smother the word ho has
heard, for this deals with higher
interests.
Into Good Ground
"And others fell into the good
ground, and yielded fruit, grow-
ing up and increasing; and
brought forth, thh•tytold, n n d
sixtyfold, and a hundredfold."
When life is done some show a
harvest. Some never let the word
in, some never let it root, some
never let it grow up. Like all the
Scripture revelations of man's sin-
ful state, this one too altos at the
conscience and repentance, thus
opening the soul for gospel. Tite
more it is opened the more fruit
will there be in the end.

The Warning
"And he said, Who hath ears
to hear, let hint. hear," This is
rather a call to attention than an
appeal to spiritual discernment,
and yet such an appeal is natural-
ly implied.
"_end he said, So is the kingdom
of God, ns if a man should cast
Beed upou the earth; and should
sleep and rise night and Clay, and
the seed should spring up and
grow, he knowoth not how," The
earth is only the medium in which
the seed grows, It has no life and
can produce no Life; all the lite
is in the seed, The seed must be
brought to the earth by the will
of someone, So Is the human heart.
The word must be cast into it by
another, must lodge there and
glow; then that heart has spirit-
ual life in it, the living Word.
The Harvest
The earth hearetlh fruit of her-
self; first the blade, then the
ear, then the full grain in the ear.
But when the fruit is ripe,
straightway ho putteth forth the
sickle, because the harvest is
come," This teaches that when
nit that the Word of God is in-
tended to accomplish ou earth to
this age hag been accomplished,
the harvest time will come when
the Saints of God will he taken
home. •
Christ's Kingdom
'And Ito said, How 911;111 we
liken the kingdom of God? or in
wlutt parable shall we set it
forth? It le like a grain of mus-
tard seed which, wlien is is sown
upon the enrtlt, though it be less
than all the seeds that are upou
the earth, yet when it is sown,
growetlt ftp, and becometlt greater
titan all the herbs, and putteth
out great branches; so that the
birds of the heaven eau lodge
u n d e r the shadow thereof."
Christ's kingdom shall attract
multitudes by the shelter and pro-
tection which it offers, shelter
from worldly oppression and the
great power of the devil.

Care of Pastures
In Dairy Farming
Canadian Farmers Must Do
Everything in Power To
Build Up Pastures

ing to the Elgin County holstein
breeders at their St, Thomas sleet.
fag regarding the necessity ot pay -
Ing more attention to pastures is
extremely timely, states The Lou-
don Free Press. It comes at the
sante time that Ottawa announces
a drop of nearly seven per cent
in production of creamery butter
for November, compared with No-
vember of last year and a decline
of 37,1 per cent compared with
October. Cheese regtstored a atz

Until October milk production in
Canada held up remarkably well
this year, in spite of labor short-
ages and other difticultlea facing
the dairyman. There can be little
doubt that the lush pastures, kept
green and growing by the unusual
ly wet season, had a good deal to
do with thle. From now on the
feed shortages resulting from this
year's scanty crops will make it-
self felt on the dairy output and
sharp falling off of production
may bo expected. In addition there
is the growing pressure of labor
shortages.
• • •
It the pastures saved the dairy
farmer this year it to abvtous that
every care should he taken to keep
them productive. Perhaps this
time of year, when pastures are
frost -bound and snow-covered is
the best time to think of how they
can be built up for nert year, Mr.
Steckley mentioned new typos of
grasses being developed to supple•
mnt the succulent timothy, which
cattle apparently prefer. With more
electric fences available it should
be possible to avoid overgrazing of
pastures by moving the herds about.
and not letting them consume the
best grasses in any one spot coto-
pletely.
Pastures are basic in dairy faras-
ing. New Zealand anll -Argentina
have the advantage of year-round
pastures for livestock. If we are
still to complete with them it, the
poet -war period we must do every-
thing in our power to build top our
pastures. And if we are to accum-
ulate summer surpluses t0 inann-
tain butter rations pastures should
be tried to the utmost.

Italian Navy Lost
Chance To Turn
Tide Of War
After the Battle for Crete, the
British battle fleet in the Medi-
terranean consisted of only three
cruisers and if the vastly heavior-
gunned, numerically -superior Ital-
ian fleet had been willing to risk
action, the Allied cause might
have been as good as lost,
This .picture was presented by
Admiral .Sir William James, Naval
Information Chief of the British
Admiralty, in an article for the
forthcoming "United States at
War" issue of the Army and
Naval Journal.
"it was fortunate that the en-
emy did not know, or, if Ise did
have an inkling of the truth, that
he failed to put it to an acid test
of decisive action", he wrote.

WHAT SCIENCE
IS DOING
Soybean Fibre
A fibre made from soybeans
has Just been produced commer-
cially for the first time by tho
llackett. f' 1, of Cincinnati and pro-
Illlaea to be of major postwar Im'
portfinee, the company announces.
This fie iv soybean fibre, which
1s so new it has yet to be named
is claimed .) he as warn) as wool,
says 'Clic Financial Post. It In
resilient, strong, durable and
can be made either moist ire all•
sorbent or moisture resistant.
It le not a ronlpetitor of any
other fibre but Is said to be an
entirely new material with a grow-
ing field of usefulness, It may be
blended with either cotton or
wool, or it may be woven or spun
into fabrics. Already it leas been
made experimentally into blank-
ets, felt hats, underwear, hosiery,
mullings and upholstery falbrics.
The process is relatively simple
111 operation. From 1110 soybean Is
final extracted the soybean oil,
After this the residue -soybean
meal ---is sold for. livestock teed.
Roughly half of this meal is pro-
tein, required amounts of which
are removed to make the new
fibre,
•
Special Process
This meal, it is said, gives a.
powder -like product. Through a
special process this Is liquefied and
converted into a mass ,wtlh a con -
"latency resembling molasses. This
liquid Is then forced under pres-
sure through very fine platinum
spinnerettes from which it emerges
as hundreds of thin filaments.
These filaments are then given
a number of carefully controlled
chemical treatments and baths
during which they are stretched
and hardened. Finally the fibres
are dried and cut into any desired
lengths.
The company's technologists
have, made many products expert -
mentally from soybeans, including
plastics, wallboard and paints,
Currently it produces about 70,000
tons of soybean ineal annually,
and approximately 80 million
pounds of soybean oil, which in
distributed under government
allocations.

The King's Sword
For Stalingrad
Tho pictures of the presenta-
tion of the King's sword to Pre-
mier Stalin slake a pleasant me-
morial, a little out of the ordinary
in the chronicles of the meeting
at Teheran.
It was the great sword of hon-
or, presented by Mr. Churchill in
the name of the King, on the be-
half of the people of Britain, in
expression of their honor and re-
spect for the people of Stalin-
grad,
The symbolism 1)1 the sword
and the cross are entwined in tho
story of the great wars. Tho
sword of the Crusader was like a
cross and so was the sword of
Joan of Arc. The King's s votdl
for Stalingrad lay for three days
on the altar of Westminster :Ab-
bey. And it was taken in a sort
of procession and pilgrimage
through the towns of Britain and
was seen by millions of the Brit-
ish people.
Moro than 200 ex -service men
aro now serving as conductors
on London buses. A former dis-
abled Commando is among the
latest to join the London Trans-
port Service In this capacity.
