S.Met Monday Night THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB. 4, 1937 Yearly Rates Canada, $1J>OInsurance In Force At The Endof Last Year Was $398,499,*573. Remarkable progress was revealed ia the Sixty-Fifth Annual Report of the Confederation Life Association presented to. policy holders and share­ holders on January 26th. Mr. R. S. Waldie, Vice-President, who pre­ sided, drew attention to the striking gains made, not alone in Canada, but in Great Britain, West Indies, China and other parts of the world. From this it was apparent, he said, that economic revival was world wide. Vie Association’s business is at its hi?n^ level, insurances in force being $398,499,573. (Mr. Waldie drew attention to problems which call for the imme­ diate attention of Dominion and Provincial Governments. He advo­ cated the formation of a Royal Com­ mission to study these problems and seek their solution. The problems particularly concerned the financial position of the Prairie Provinces and the need for co-operation to enable ' the credit of the Western Provinces to be maintained despite the deplor­ able economic conditions from which they have suffered for years past. He said Eastern Canada’s relation­ ship to Western Canada was compar­ able to that of a parent to a young son or daughter, who, during the period of development and pioneer, ing, should be encouraged with mat­ eria) assistance and support. He also stressed .the fact that it was highly necessary for all Provinces to maintain sanctity of contracts even though such contracts might tem­ porarily be onerous. Moreover, ns many Canadian Life Insurance Com­ panies do an international business, they were highly concerned with the maintenance of Canada's credit abroad. Dealing with increased Govern­ ment activity in social services, in­ volving huge capital expenditure* he felt that Government responsibil­ ities in this direction should be clear­ ly defined beforehand in order to avoid duplication and unnecessary administrative expenditures, and to ascertain where the money is to come from. With reference to the wasteful overlapping of Government services, Mr. Waldie said, “We pay tribute to Dominion. Provincial and Municipal government bodies and in many cases each is duplicating the efforts of the other. What is requred is not only a consolidation of government servi­ ces but probably a consolidation of governments themselves. Provincial and Municipal, in order to rid our- •elves of extravagance and to bring us to our goal of balanced budgets.” Mr. Waldie felt that more immi- (Continued on page 3) The regular weekly meeting of St.Paul's Y. P.

Mac- Bain, presented the chapter’s 36th annua) report, which showed an in­ crease in membership and average attendance during the year, with the hostess and telephone committees functioning efficiently. In this most momentous year for the Empire, the chapter members took allegiance to two Kings, to Ed­ ward VIIJ at the demise of H. M.

A book of songs was presented to an Ingersoll boy as a mark of recognition for his creditable standing in singing at the London and Oxford County Musical Festivals. Daughters of the Empire Calen­ dars were placed in the class rooms of the Collegiate Institute, Memor­ ial, Ward and Sacred Heart Schools and in the Public Library. On June 23rd, on the occasion of former King Edward's birthday, a dedication service of interest and beauty was held at Memorial Park, when a beautiful new Union Jack was presented to the town of Inger­ soll by Lady Dufferin Chapter, Mrs. Baxter, the regent, making the pres­ entation. His Worship Mayor J. L Paterson, gave an appropriate ad­ dress and accepted the flag on behalf of the town, and Rev. Major C. K. Masters, rector of St James’ Angli­ can Church, dedicated the flag on 1 this occasion. By the raising of the flag, under the careful super- 1 vision of Robert Swallow, important historical dates were observed throughout the year. Miift Bowers’ report showed a de­ cided increase in the subscription to “Echoes.” News items relative to the chapter's activities, have appeared in “Echoes” from time to time, and these showed the achievements of Lady Dufferin Chapter compared very favorably with those of other chapters throughout the Dominion. The meeting closed with the sing­ ing of the National Anthem. Trinity W. A.

VEALE, PublisherPHONES:—Tribune Office, 13 • Residence, 442A,THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4th, 1937 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, FEB. 4, 1937Use of Fertilizers In The DominionExperimental work to study the economic em­ployment of fertilizers in Canada is earned on tn all the provinces of the Dominion by the Experimental Farms Branch of the Dominion Department of Agri­ culture. The results of these investigations, states the Dominion Agricultural Chemist, C. H. Robinson, are of value in furnishing the grower with inform­ ation which serves as a guide in his selection of fer- tilizer mixtures and general so fl management. Sug­ gestions with respect to the fertilization of special crops under varying soil and climatic conditions are made, but such Kuggestions must of necessity be very general in character. It is noteworthy, however, that due to close co­ operation between Dominion and Provincial institu­ tions and Provxial Fertilizer Boards a greater uni­ formity in recommendations has been possible. The Provincial Fertilizer Councils, or advisory boards, are composed of Dominion and Provincial scientific agricultural institutions and prominent manufacturing concerns. These officials meet once a year and dis­ cuss the results of fertilizer and soil Investigational work, and, if thought desirable, amendments to pre­ vious recommendations are made As a result, the number of fertilizer analysts considered as being ade­ quate to meet average requirements has been greatly reduced within the last few years, and the, lower, grade mixtures are apparently becoming less popular with the grower. An evidence of this trend in the use of fertilizers, it may be pointed out that of the 60 various analysis sold in Canada during the past year about ten furn­ ished the greater bulk of the fertilizers used, and of these the sates. of the 4-8-10 and 2-12-6 mixtures exceeded all others. The recommendations of the councils may be obtained from the Provincial Depart­ ments of Agncutlure, and the user of fertilizers is strongly advised to consult the Councils when select­ ing his fertilizer requirements. break. Though we suffer disappointment, aggrava­tion or anger again and again, the bond holds.It is well that this should be so. We feel sure itwas the original intention of the Creator who set thesolitary together in families. Some animals aregregarious, but this is an entirely different thing tofamily ties.No condemnation it too strong for those who dee-pise, discredit or dishonor the family tie. It is a sinagainst the sanctity of life.Social workers are ever telling us that the familylife of criminals, leaves much to be desired. Neveruntil all is over will the power of the home and all it stands for be destroyed. Tried and erven dimin­ ished it may .be, but because it bears seeds of im­ mortality it will survive. BANK NOTE PICTURE Plywood Dangers of Boom Are Pointed Out "There are two dangers which we should watch in the coming year," The Canadian Banker says editor­ ially in the January issue. "There is the danger that the stock market should get beyond control. Pros­ perity does not lie in a rising stock market, but in rising employment and its greater real incomes for our people. The stock market revolves aibout rum­ ors, and perhaps the best antidote to markets which are to exuberant is full and complete information published by companies whose shares are listed on the exchanges. A severe set-back to an over-extend­ ed stock market may have an important effect on the volume of investment and of the nqw commitments for 1937. "The second danger which needs to be watched is that of rising wages. There is no more desirable went than an increase in wages which represents an increase in the productiveness of our labor, and there are of course many trades where wages have been abnormally depressed during the past few years, and where readjustment is necessary and just. There is, however, a danger that we may get increases in wages in certain trades while a large number of people are still left unemployed. In 1937 it |Will be necessary in Canada to have a concreted effort to bring about the re-employment of the unemployed. Every at­ tention must be given to improving their employ- ability and increasing their ability to move back into jobs. If widespread increases in wages should come about while there still remained a solid core of unem­ ployment in the country, we might well go through a boom period and reach another depression without having re-employed those who are now out of work. That would indeed be a national catastrophe," Approval has been given to *portrait of King George VI in navaluniform to appear on the new bi­lingual bank notes to be Issued bythe Bank of Canada.

Has not somebody said that this planet is the insane asylum of the universe?" So writes Rev. Rr. Charles Herbert Huestis in the Toronto Star, recently. “In building a nation the primary requisite is that it be a nation of ‘good animals,’ Dr. Huestis writes.

The ancient Chinese produced beautiful pieces of carved woodwork and decorated them with a thin covering of valuable wood. This was done by shav­ ing a block of wood and gluing the shavings to the object. The Royal Tom'h of Egypt also prove that the Egyptians were well acquainted with the art. Those ancient craftsmen found that timber became warpi d ami twi ted m time arid s«> they applied the idea of cro-ss-banding, that is, placing thin sheets of wood at right angles to one another and gluing them together, thus p,od.:cmg a solid -sheet consisting of sc'.era) layvrs.

Fair Dealing After all sincerity and a desire to be fair and de­ cent bring their own reward, even in this world. We would rather have the reputation of being reasonably honest in business than to possess wealth beyond the dreams of avarice. The reputation of a professional man, a manufacturer, a merchant, an artisan should be one of his greatest and most prized possessions. Money vanishes away, but the memory of fair-deal­ ing and faithful services are like flowers which bloom in the gardens of many heart . Too often, for tem­ porary gain, men do the mean and tricky thing. Then they wonder why former patrons pass by on the other side This suggestion has no personal application that we know of, but at the beginning of a new year we throw it out for what it is worth.

In Canada winter wheat seeding in the fall of 1936 in­ creased by 20 per cent compared with the fall of 1935, the figures being 702,000 acres in 1938; 685,000 acres in 1935. In the United State-, the largest acreage of winter wheat on record in that country, 67,000,000 ocrea, war. nown in the Call of 1986. In­ ereared plantings are also reported in the Danube countries, in the Britieh Wes, in India and in the Soviet Union, evidencing the world trend towards larger wheat production in response to the lowest world wheat supply in 10 years. Happy Families We hare before us * picture of Georg* VI with Ms Queen and children. It is an ideal group and we have come to the eoncluMon that the heart of the country and the rear'd is upheld by its happy families We think there are many happy familiew, dependent on each other for interest, diversion and variety of ttfe. A goodly type of family is that where the mem­ bers excel in chastening one another, but do not allow others to charten or even criticrec them. They are indeed fortunate and happy who have trained undsr one roof with a jolly band of brother and lUlcn They have a precious heritage which mil stand by them in the hour of need and be of incoWjdile value.

That point of view fails to note all the imperfect work that is now being done in the world. A large port of the world's workers go through their jobs in an indifferent man­ ner. They are anxious only to draw their pay and do as little work as possible. The prevalence of that spirit creates! wide oppor­ tunities for people who have energy and ambition When they show those qualities, they impress people so favourably that they can always procure more work and business.

Dr. Huestis says; “Take milk, for instance . Medical research has shown that the addition of one pint of milk doily to the diet of a grow­ ing boy or girl improves the growth rate, the physique, the power of re­ sistance to disease out of al! pro­ portion. "But due to the demands of the profit system and the absurd manner in which milk is distributed, the extra pint costs too much for many people to buy it. Thus the nation suffers at its most vunerable points "Speaking of milk, it is a well- known fact that raw or unpasteur­ ized milk is a source of a number of diseases such as tuberculosis, un- dulant fever, typhoid fever, scarlet fever, septic sore throat and diph­ theria. Rajw milk is a greater des­ troyer of life than war. Yet the Health League of Canada states that in Ontario there are 28 cities and 128 towns and villages where (be­ lieve it or not), pasteurized milk is not required. Were anyone to start scattering disease germs in the dnnkmg soun.es of the people, he would be arreteted as a madman ” Dr. Huestis continues with an il­ lustration concerting diet. "Out­ side of some food faddists most | people pay little attention to the I matter of diet, they cat what is set *>efore them and ask no questions for conscience stake. Yet a great Eng­ lish medical authority .states that faulty habits of diet are responsible for mure sickness and misery during the middle and latter half of life than the use of intoxicating liquors There are in our department stores and hospitals competent dietitians | whose services should be sought by the community at large.” Commending the educational pro­ gram of the Health League of Can­ ada. Dr. Huestis sayts. "It is perfor­ ming great public service tn the face , of amazing indifference and entirely inadequate financial support." Studies made show that Canada I spends annually $300,000,000 to treat direa^e. Dr Hu«?ti« points out. Much less is spent in prevention.

H. New Explains Organiz­ation and Objective ofHome Improvement Plan. NEED NO ENDORSERS In addition to this Advisory Com­ mittee, which has been appointed to head the work in Ontario of the Home Improvement Plan of the National Employment Commission, Ryiand H. New, chairman, states that there will be a large number of local advisory committees through­ out Ontario, perhaps 100, whose du­ ties .will be to promote operation of the plan in their own localities, and to make home owners “home im­ provement conscious.’’ These committees, which will in- I elude members of chambers of com- | merce, service clubs, and trades and labor councils, are now being ap­ pointed. Although specific details of local committees have not yet been work­ ed out, at least as far as Ontario is concerned, the general plan of the scheme, already announced, is briefly that under the home improve­ ment plan, a total of $50,000,000 has been made available to home-owners throughout Canada. Each owner may borrow up to a maximum of $2,000, repayable monthly within three years, at a discount rate of .IV* per cent. The home owner may borrow on his own signature alone, without security or endorsers, although he must inform the bank from which he is seeking the loan, what specific improvement he has m mind He may then authorize the contractor he has selected to apply for payment to Die bank. Mr. New pointed out that much more than the original $50,000,000 planned would eventually be spent in home improvement, as many own­ ers who were able to afford it them­ selves, without assistance, would emulate their neighbors and do some improving The total spent in Can­ ada for all such improvements is ex­ pected to reach $200,000,000. "You can't put that much money into circulation without greatly in­ creasing employment and improving business conditions througout the country." said Mr. New. W. C. T. U. Met At Mrs. W. J.

ANNUAL MEETING OF THE CONFEDERATION LIFE ASSOCIATION (Continued from page 1) gration was destined to come wheth­ er we desired it or not, but expressed the opinion that increased population might solve certain problems. "Earn­ est consideration should, therefore, bo given to ways and means of bring­ ing about this increase in popula­ tion. We have learned certain les­ sons from experiences of the past, and, if a policy of controlled immi­ gration is followed and care is exer­ cised in placing people on the land, the task of nation building should be successful." , He depreciated the growth of pro­ vincial economic self-sufficiency and said, “Provinces wpre given exclusive jurisdiction over certain internal matters at Confederation, but it was never intended that they would ex­ ercise these powers to the prejudice of other provinces. No province can isolate itself from the others and live in self-sufficiency without striking at the very heart of our national unity." “Substantial progress in building the Association as a great interna- itional insurance organization has | continued in marked degree," said I Mr V. R. Smith. General Manager, in reviewing the Association's oper­ ations during 1936. After review­ ing the progress of the Company, Mr. Smith pointed out that ten years ago the Association entered the field of Group Life insurance, since that time adding Group Sickness and Accident and the arduous responsi­ bility of administering, on behalf of employers, Group Pension funds for the benefit of their employees.

I'm trying to think up a mune foe « new microbe ” sponsible for the safe and sound ad­ministration of pension schemesguaranteeing yearly pensions to em­ployees of almost $2,000,000 a year.Bearing in mind that this insuranceis done soundly and at a low ex­pense, we may be permitted to sug­gest to the Government of Canadathat the facilities of the insurance companies might well be made use of, as they are in Great Britain, to the advantage of the Government, when considering various forms of pension benefits. “Those of you who have read the book, “I Write As I Please," by Walter Duranty, describing his ex­ periences in Russia, will recall his sympathetic description of the Sov­ iet doctrines. Nevertheless, Mr. Duranty at the same time emphasises at some length the point—why not take advantage of the experience and expert knowledge of the insurance companies in dealing with the na­ tional plans of social insurance, stat­ ing that ‘The most eminently prac­ tical and salutary creation of modern Capitalism is insurance.’ "iMiss Charlotte Whitton, in the course of her recent articles dealing with the social problems of Canada, also makes a plea for greater co-op­ eration between government and private enterprise in solving these problems, referring particularly, to the assistance capable of being ren­ dered by insurance companies. Can­ adian Life insurance companies have gone on record, on several occas­ ions, placing their services unreser­ vedly at the disposal of the Domin­ ion and Provincial Governments, and are ready, today, to co-operate to the best of their ability if any Gov­ ernment desires iL “An interesting feature of the Confederation Life report is the new form of the financial statements. In the past, life insurance companies have been accustomed to publish a cash statement and balance sheet, following the conventional form of annual return required by the In surancc Departments of Canada and the United States. The direct­ ors believe the publication of a rev­ enue statement, showing the surplus earned for the year, and the surplus account showing the disposal made of the surplus earned, will be wel­ comed by the inuring public. ".Some surprise may be occasioned that your directors have deemed it advisable to write down the assets by approximately three quarters of a million dollars when the present market value of the assets is approx­ imately $5,000,000 in excess of their book values. For at least a quar­ ter of a century, the Association has followed the practice of using any profit obtained from the sale of se­ curities, to write down the book val­ ues of the assets. The directors be­ lieve so well-established a practice should be continued, but quite apart from this they believe it wise, even though the world is perhaps entering a period of economic prosperity, to continue to strengthen the position of the Association against the un­ known. In spite of the confused world outlook with increasing ten­ sion among nations, the rapid rearm­ ament of the great powers, the des­ tructive possibilities of another war, and, in Canada, in spite of the un­ known but certain burdensome cost of the policy of repudiation of pub­ lic and private debts, carried into the statute laws of Ontario and Al­ berta, life insurance companies must continue to maintain the unassailable position of being ready at all times and under all circumstances to meet all demands for payments due under their contracts." Assets now total $112,945.505, an I increase for the year of ’JG,567,510. As a measure of added security, the assets have been carried into the balance sheet nt their book values, which are less by over $5,000,000 than their actual market values, as ascertained by the Insurance Depart­ MEN BEHIND HOME IMPROVEMENT PLAN IN ONTARIO ment of the Dominion? The Association’s reserves for as­ surance and annuity contracts now amount to $97,053,050, an inereara of $5,186,548 over the year 1$35. Total net income for 1936 amount­ ed to $21,597,828. Net premium income, excluding annuities, amount­ ed to $14,093,944, an increase of $530,228. Surplus earned during the year amounted to $3,180,646, which is $353,166 more than that of the pre­ vious year, "an excellent result, in view of the rates of interest at which investments can be made.” The total surplus as at December 31st, 1936. amounted to $8,332,009, which is $526,943 more than the previous year. The surplus held free and unallotted to policyholders, and therefore, available to meet any future contingency, now stands ‘»t $4,059,644, an increase of $661,204 during the year. Payments to policyholders and beneficiaries during 1936 amounted to $11,679,075. of which $2,966,035 was for death claims and $1,843,113 for matured endowments. Divi­ dends to policyholders amounted to $1,956,337. Fewer policies were surrendered in 1936, the amount paid in cash surrender values being $534,270 less than in 19^35.

Nearly 30young people were present, and since the programme was under the aus­ pices of Ewart Bartley, and members of Trinity United Choir, it was nat­ ural that the largest representation was from that church. The pro­ gramme consisted of community singing, (some of it with the Col­ umbia Community Sing by means of radio), and solos by Mrs. H. Uren and Jack Mayberry, an informal talk on the aims and objects of “The Fireside Hour,” by Herbert Handley, and a social time to the accompani­ ment of Coffee and cookies. The whole program concluded just be- toefore 11 p.m. On Sunday next, Corl Edmonds and the String Quar­ tette of the Four Square Class and members of the Baptist Church Choir will provide the special items on the programme. Community Singing, a discussion on Current Topics and cof­ fee and cookies will round out the programme. Most of those present last Sunday have expressed their in­ tention of being present again next Sunday, so with the addition of our Baptist friends and others who have only just heard of this new attract­ ion for Sunday evening, we should have considerably over 50. On the following Sunday, Jim Deamude and some members of St. Paul’s Presby­ terian Choir will be the special art­ ists. while our Anglican friends are being invited to do the honours the next Sunday, Come along and join us. Our motto is “Friendship and Fellowship.” The Y is open at 8 | o’clock so that you can come straight from church. The Junior Boys’ supper which is held on the first Wednesday of each month is not being held this month, as the boys will be providing lunch for their London Y visitors and them­ selves on Saturday morning, Feb. 12th, when the London Y Prep Boys join our Junior Boys on the Gymn floor, and the London Y Boys’ Stamp Club join our Junior Stamp Club in a meeting at the Y and a visit to one or more of the local manufactur­ ing plants. We thought that the mothers would consider one meal in a month sufficient to provide. A determined effort is being made to get the public speaking class started again, with an attendance more encouraging to the teacher. Mr A. W. G. Crutcher. We have spoken several times in this column of the great value of this course, and from the names we have received it looks probable that there will be a fair­ sized class.

The kits for building these models are all complete and I contain full instructions for cutting out and assembling the models, and | anyone willing to give a period of two hours weekly will be doing the boys a service and getting more out of it than he puts in. A double-header was played by the boys and girls basketball teams on Tuesday evening, when the girls continued their victorious march to­ wards the group title by’ defeating St. Thomas Y. W. C. A. by a score of 29-18. The game started off fast and there was very little to choose between the teams in the first half The local girls took the lead, only to have the visitors tie up the score again. This happened sev­ eral times in the first two periods. The homesters, however were in the lead at time 14-12. In the second half Ingersoll were distinctly superior and finally ran out winners by a margin of 11 points. This is the third schedule game and our girls have won all three. They have defeated St. Thomas twice and Stratford once. They still have to play Stratford at Stratford and St. Mary’s twice. Line-up—St. Thom­ as, (18), Turnbull 4. Stewart 8, Smith.

Light andshadow tones may bo improved In the process. AL e T r H a O o U w G n H er s r e d l e a v ti e v lo el p y a f n ew d p c r a i m nt ­ their own negatives, a greater num­ ber now do their own printing andenlarging. They find that In this part of picture-making there is a wide range of opportunity to exer­ cise their artistic talents and pro­ duce prints suiting their own tastes and fancies. Developing negatives—what with daylight developing in film tanks and dependable formulae in dark­rooms—has in these days become largely a "time and temperature" process practically certain, if the exposure was correct, to produce good negatives. Printing a negative,developing a print and making an enlargement are very much "some­ thing else again," not that they are formidable tasks, but decidedly more choosy. Skill and judgmentplay a large part There Is consJlerable choice, for one thing, in the kind of photo­graphic paper on which the nega­ tive may be printed, depending upon the degree of contrast the paper will give to the dark and light por­ tions of the negative, or whether or not soft effects are desired. Some negatives show extreme contrast inlights and shadows, some haveaverage contrast some, because offaulty exposure, are weak, thin andflat, some, extremely so. The selec­tion of paper best suited to the typeof negative and the kind of picture,plus proper exposure in printing,often makes the difference betweena good and a bad picture. Again, there is a choice of sur­faces in paper, such as velvet, glossy, semi-gloss, according to taste. The highly glossy paper, for example, is best suited for a nega­ tive filled with detail. Again, re-do- veloptnent solutions are available for giving a print a different tone, euch as sepia for an autumn scene. The amateur who does his own printing has the opportunity, too, of masking portions of the negative tosuit his own artistic judgment. Hemay give a picture a more balancedcomposition or eliminate undesir­able details on tho sides, top, or bot­tom. In a cloudless picture be mayinsert clouds by "printing In" fromanother negative, and he mayamuse himself by producing trick pictures by printing from two or more negatives. Equipped with an enlarger, the amateur has still greater opportu­ nity to improve his pictures and sat­ isfy his own tastes. This Is an ap­paratus with which a large positive Image Is obtained by permittingrays of light to pass through thenegative, then through a lens andfocua on a sheet of sensitive bro­mide paper.With an enlarger the amateurmay "blow up" a picture to severaltimes the area of the negative. This may result in tho transformation ofa very ordinary looking picture Into an extraordinarily impressive one, because the enlarging often reveals details of interest or beauty not vis­ ible in tho small “contact" print. He may select only portions of a nega­ tive to enlarge — any portion — by masking light from the remaining area; he may even make two or three pictures from one negative.There are ways, too, of controllingthe shadow tones of different partsof a picture, thereby greatly en­hancing its artistic value.All these possibilities are worthknowing, even if you do leave theirexecution to your photo finisher, be­cause you can give him intelligent instructions as to what you prefer In tho finishing of your suapshots l21 JOHN VAN GUILDER.

It is a power which has arranged affairs so that there is u certain and definite quantity of matter which forms what we know as the earth, and all that goes with it - - the living animals, the trees, the flowers, the wind, rain and snow, and most important in our estima­ tion, the human being. Therefore this universe, as we human beings know it, consists of so much matter and this unknown controlling power has further arranged affairs so that although this matter may be changed from one form to another, both chemically and physically, yet it can neither be created nor destroyed. Irrespective of the changes which take place in form and combination yet the actual amount of matter, by weight, in the universe, always re­ mains the same. As an example there is a certain quantity of nitro­ gen in the universe and that quantity can neither be increased or de­ creased. which actually means that while man or nature’s forces cannot create more nitrogen, yet neither can it destroy that which is already present. But the form in which it exists can be very greatly altered. The nitrogen in your soil may be tied up in organic forms, and un­ available to the plant. This organic material will decay, through the actions of different t^pes of minute living organisms known as bacteria, which cause the organic material to undergo complicated chemical changes one result of which is that the nitro­ gen is set free either as pure nitro­ gen. or in the form of simple compounds, such as ammonia. Other forms of bacteria in the soil then start working on these simple compounds and ultimately the nitro­ gen is changed to a form known as nitrate. The nitrogen in the nitrate form is available to the plant and is absorbed into the plant, taken to the leave.% where it is combined with other elementa to form complex sub­ stances, which are in their turn con- [ veyed to the portions of the plant where growth is proceeding. The plant may be eaten by livestock, in which case the nitrogenous materials pass through the digestive system of the animal and undergo further changes, some being excreted, while some becomes tied up as part of the animal organism The nitrogen which is excreted is again released, either into the soil or into the air as the manure decomposes and when the animal dies and likewise commen­ ces to decay the nitrogen which is present in so many dffeient combin­ ations is also released And a similar story could be woven around phosphorus, potash, calcium, and other plant food ele­ ments mo neceasary for plant life The story would not be exactly the ■came t>ecausc it would have to vary in details according to the character­ istics of the material. but the prin­ ciple is the same. Under natural conditions the plant food which was taken up by the plants, would be returned to the soil when those plants died and decayed.But under man’s supervision, suchis not the case. Under' his supervis­ ion the plants are cut, sold and taken away, or they are permitted to be eaten by animals and the animals or animal products are sold. In either case plant food elements are taken from the soil and sold off the farm. A small amount is returned by ap­ plications of the manure but never­ theless there is a continual drain on the original supply of plant food in the soil. Then again, man in his attempts to get larger yields, ploughed and cultivated his soil. This produced larger crops which naturally drew from the soil larger quantities of plant food, while at the same time the cultivation .produced a greater loss by leaching from rains and by­ wind erosion and especially by im­ proper methods of handling. There is still exactly the same amount of potential plant foods in the universe but poor farm practices have changed their habitation, and the change has been away from the farm and to the detriment of the farmer. While the plant is largely com­ posed of plant food elements sup­ plied by the air, and water, yet these soil plant foods are of vital import­ ance. Depleted supplies of these soil plant foods is the cause of de­ creasing crop returns, which is now so common on Ontario farms. News and Information For the Busy Farmer Fruit Convention Held Delegates to the joint convention of the Ontario Fruit Growers’ Asso­ ciation and Niagara Growers, in Hamilton, recently, were told by Dr. J. H Gnsdale, who had just re­ turned from Great Britain, that there had been a complete change re­ cently in the attitude of English buyers toward Canadian products Canadian fruit was more popular, he said, and there were far fewer complaints regarding quality and grade. He saw unlimited opportunity m England if fruit of good quality and proper maturity was exported, but it would be a mistake to think that, just because tho Ontario ciop was not wanted here, it could be sent overseas W B Somerset, Markets commit- sioner, Toronto. described grower., and cannere as partners in industry He urged forming of growers’ groups to handle asparagus, peaches, tomat oes, as beneficiail results from this system had been shown last season. Howard Craise. St- Catharines, told the convention that the great majority of housewives were no long er interested m preserving therr own preserves, and that, therefore, the growers would have to look nArt and more in future to the canneries as the market for therr produce Many modem kitchens, Mr Cruise said, were loo small to can fruit in He urged co-operation between can- ers and growers in marketing of fruit. Tho convention urged that the Federal Government take steps tohave the carry-over figures of can­ned goods made available.The Fisher Toronto Terminal.Market • ReportOf particular interest to the fruitand vegetable growers attendingtheir various local and Provincialannual conventions last week wasthe Fisher report which proposes the establishment of a Union ProduceTerminal Market facilitator the City of Toronto. The report is the result of the Committee’s study set up by the Provincial Minister of Agriculture in March, 1936, and summarizes dearly a number of important recommenda­ tions and conclusions that vitally affect the Ontario fruit and veget­ able industry. The recommendations suggested are:— (1) Legislation to be asked for to provide for one wholesale market for Toronto and the surrounding territory- where all wholesalers shall be treated alike and subject to the same regulation except the producer who shall be under no regulation unless he voluntarily, elects to use the market. (2) Financing: Discussion took place on the subject of financing and the Committee felt that this could best be done by a bond issue, the interest, if possible, to be guaran­ teed by the Government. In return the Terminal Market Managament to agree to set aside the necessary per­ centage of the annual turnover to take care of the interest and pay off indebtedness. (3) The market to be under the management of a Committee of rep­ resentatives appointed by the grow­ er?, wholesalers, retailers, consumers and perhaps other interested parties who shall have charge of the market; draw up all regulations governing its operation; and, to change these reg­ ulations from time to time as exper­ ience shows to be wise. This large Committee may appoint a smaller Executive. (4) Ail regulations governing the operation of the market to be subject to the approval of the Min­ ister of Agriculture. (5) Every person wishing to do a wholesale business on the market to abide by- the regulations of the Committee of Management which Shtf) nelude a proper audit. (6) Realizing the producer is par- I ticularly interested in knowing the Iselling costs on the proposed market the Committee investigated as fully as its power permitted all those fac- ! tors including costs of sites, costa of different types of buildings and costa of different types of operations and | from its study the Committee is pre­ pared ot state definitely that all ’ wiling costa to be assessed against | the producer’s product shall be somewhere in the range between a maximum of 7 per cent and 9 per ■ cent., depending on which o^ the var- ■ iosis types of buildings and sites shall ultimately’' be decided upon. In order to Illustrate how savings over the present system of distribu­ tion may be made the Committee suggests that the proposed market be run under regulations somewhat I as follows:— (a) One of the heavy losaes in I the past system of distribute m has | been the que viun of bad debts, ■ Many market, mw have efficient | ( red it and Co' i> n Bureaus oper- I ating and from i study of these the I Committee fee,,- that some system I can be evolve . that will protect the —BINOCULARS—FIELD GLA3SE3 ’ASK FOR ILLUSTRATED CATALOGUE" (DON, ONTARIOMet. 272g GIVE YOUR EYES The advantage of long experience and expert training.

(b) Anotlu'i' very important source of financial loss both tc the wholesale trade and to the producer is the entirely unnecessary over­ loading of the market from time to time with both domestic and im­ ported goods and from our discuss­ ions between growers and the whole salers it would seem that any one of several systems could be agreed upon that would very largely elim­ inate this trouble. <c> The question of delivery! costs has been studied and many sy­ stems are found to be in vogue. But it becomes evident that a much more economical system than the one now enforced in Toronto can be worked out and one in which the farmer will not have a cost assessed against his selling price. (d) The question of advertising produce when heavy supplies are available has been looked into and the evidence of this and other mar­ kets leads the Committee to the con­ clusion that a small fund can be used to very great advantage to both the consumer and the producer in clear­ in up these heavy shipments. The consumer is not only made aware of the proper time to make larg&“pur- chases of each commodity', but is ad­ vised as to the time when he should expect lower prices. This provides for uninterrupted and free operation of the Law of Supply and Demand <e) Futher wasteful cost under the present system of distribution in Toronto is the inadequacy of proper loading, unloading and parking facil­ ities around present markets for both buyers and sellers. The Com­ mittee has considered this tn its costs and believe that this difficulty­ can be corrected. <f> A great deal of thought lias been given to the trucker and the committee fecks that he shall be en­ titled to all the facilities of the mar­ ket and shall be subject only to the same regulations as all others, (g) Further cost reduction in operating can be made by taking ad­ vantage of the many modern types of handling facilities which are in vogue in different markets and which the present both summer and winter facilities in Toronto do not permit of. (h) Many other minor details of operation have been discussed but it seems unneewrary to go into them at this time. So far where the matter has been discussed at recent growers’ meet­ ings it has received practically whole­ hearted support and endorsement Those wishing complete copy of the Committee’s report may obtain same by writing the Commissioner of Marketing, Queenls Park, Toronto, Ont.

With axe and hammer and a hand­ful of spikes, Benham went silently to work at the prow of the scow With the poles spiked upright anda length of tarpaulin unearthed from the cargo, he fashioned a small en­closure. To finish it off he broughtout the blankets Pierre Buschard had provided for her and placedthem in the new-built cubby.“When we tic up for the nightthe men shall gather you enough spruce tips for a comfortable couch,"he announced "This will afford you reasonable privacy."Then, without another word or recognized in the other a kindredspirit, an understanding heart.The parting was commonplace enough Ellen stepped to the shoreand her baggage was placed besideher. At the head of the slope by the fort buildings a group of Indianswere gathering. Benham gestured towards this group. “They will take care of your lug­gage," he said slowly. “It is bestthat I leave immediately." Ellen hesitated. "That first day, below Cascade Rapids—the morningyou discovered that I had stowed away—you spoke of exacting pay­ ment. I — what is that payment,John Benham?" The look he bent upon her wasfathomless. "I would save you fromthat payment if I could now. But I am afraid that you must pay, just the same. Not to me—but to others.”"I—I don’t understand." "You will." He held out his hand."Good-bye. Ellen Mackay.”For a moment her hand trembled tn his. Then he had stepped backon to the stow His deep voice calledorders. The Crees bent to the frightened. There was something ghastly about this old man’s wailingrage and his imprecations. And tnisfather of hers, who had wasted away to such a shell, seemed almost likeanother person to her. But she drewupon her young strength and went to him. Quietly but remorsele'.-lyshe forced him back into his -eatand dropped upon her knees b de him. She attempted to soothe himwith words such as she would have used on a child. “You must rest, fath-r You arenot well. You have been too long alone. I am young and strong. You must let me take most of the loadfrom your shoulders. I have not for­ gotten how to handle the Indians orto grade a fur."Again the old factor laughed and it seemed to Ellen that all the ele­ ments of despair were in that laughHe was shaking; a man palsied b-. the scalding outpourings of rage and hate. Over and over again he muttered the name of John Benham,cursing and reviling. It was long before he quieted, and the reactonleft him weak and shrunken ainqmg his men and stood there, bringing out a short black briar pipewhich he clenched affectionately in his teeth, to smoke calmly and dis­ interestedlyThe next halt was made at sun­ down. The scows were tied up. fires lit and the evening meal preparedBenham himself did not come near her, but he sent Pierre Buschard toher with several heaped dishes ofsavoury, steaming food and a panni­ kin of scalding hot tea. By the time she had tmshed her supper the In­dians had brought numerous arm­ fuls of fragrant spruce tips for her Ellen arranged her own couch, then, with sudden deternunation,went a-hore Benham faced her.“I’m g g for a little exercise,” shedefiant A "Or am I a prisoner?" “Not in the least," was the quietanswer 'Only do not go loo far. It is nearly dark and these woodsare uncharted ”Unconsciously, Ellen sta y ed Longer than she had intended.

Hicks, Senior Dairy ProduceGrader, Dairy and Cold StorageBranch, Dominion Department ofAgriculture, returned recently afterspending three months visiting themain centres of England, Scotland,and Nothern Ireland, where Canadiancheese are handled. At the annual convention of the Dairymen’s Asso­ ciation of Western Ontario, held at London, Ontario, 13 January, 1937, he related some of his experiences. The object of his visit was to inter­ view the importers, wholesalers and distributors of Canadian cheese, to investigate complaints as to quality, and to secure information beneficial to the cheese industry of Canada. With regard to complaints in Great Britain .about immature fall- made cheese, Mr. Hicks told the con­ vention that it was quite evident that the action taken in Canada dur­ ing the fall of 1935 to have the Can­ adian fall-made cheese show more maturity when shipped had had good results, as it was stated that October and November Canadian cheese were better than in previous years. Most of these cheese were sold in March and April, although several firms did not sell al) their stock until July or August, and a few lots were on the market after Mr. Hicks arrived. Some of the cheese examined by him were fair!/ good but others were quite disap­ pointing. The main defects were soft ends; not clean in flavour; weak; pasty or slightly acid in texture. There are still in the United King­ dom some large importers who will not take a chance on these October made cheese. They claim that the cheese do not break down properly and usually develop a bitter or other objectionable flavor, also the im­ porters maintain that their custom­ ers do not want these cheese. Mr. Hicks explained to them the effort being made to improve the quality of Canadian fall-made cheese and also that the Canadian exporters were co-operating with the Dominion Dairy’ and Cold Storage Branch to improve the texture of the fall- made cheese by holding it in the warehouse at a higher temperature. Mr. Hicks examined several ship­ menus of the 1936 early October cheese in London, Liverpool, and 1 Manchester an4 most of the cheese appeared to be of fair quality. The importers stated that for October cheese the quality was satisfactory. I Of course, the cheese were too green to pass an opinion as to how they . would develop. However, some of • ; them were very mouldy and it would r appear that they bad either been , placed in wet boxes or bad been ex­ posed to heavy rain during transit. I Other cheese had too much moisture ■ and showed a weak, pasty texture 1 and were breaking down too fast. i —Division Publicity and Exten­ sion Branch. Dept, of Agriculture.
