COUNCIL OPPOSES CHANGING OF NEW DUMP LOCATION Vote To Leave Municipal Dump At Gravel Pit On Ingersoll Street In West Ox­ ford Township. The matter of changing the loca­ tion of the Municipal Dump which was movea on March 1st to the old town gravel pit on Ingersoll street, in West Oxford Township, occupied the attention of the Town Council at the regular meeting on Monday night. Considerable time was spent in discussing the matter of th? dump and also municipal garbage collect­ ion. A resolution moved by Council­ lor Clark and seconded by Council­ lor Murray, recommended leaving the dump in its present location. An amendment was moved by Council­ lor Smith and seconded by Councillor Preston, to move the dump to a new location that would be more central for the residents of the north and east sections of the town. The amendment was defeated, Councillors Weir and Morrison opposing it along with Councillors Clark and Murray, and as the result the mayor declared the original motion carried. The matter of securing Provincial Government help which was promised last year when the bridge on Thames ! street was built, was introduced by Councillor. Preston. The mayor in­ formed Mr. Preston that Mr. Morri­ son had Ben in communication with Hon. P. Dewan and leartied there was nothing the government could do about the matter at present It was decided to go into this matter further at the next committee meeting. Permission was granted Norswor­ thy Chapter, I.O.D.E., to hold a tag day on Saturday, April 30th. Councillor Smith introduced 4he matter of Municipal Direct Relief and gave figures otf the number re­ ceiving help at the present. He said all able bodied men had been cut off on Rpril 1st. He mentioned that the Provincial Government had made a drastic cut in their allowance for April as compared to last year. He—"Did Ginko take hiT~ bad luck like a man?” She—"Exactly; he blamed it all Mrs. R. A. PatersonLady Dufferin HostessMrs. R. A. Paterson, corner Albertand Ann streets, was hostess for theApril meeting of the Lady DufferinChapter, I.O.D.E., on Monday after­ noon. There were 22 members in at­ tendance. The following ladies assist­ ed the hostess in serving delicious re­ freshments: Mrs. Charles Scoffin, Mrs. A. O. Parker and Mrs. D. E. Deamude. In the absence of the regent, the vice-president, Mrs. E. A Wilson presided over the meeting. The us­ ual donation of ten dollars was made to the Ingersoll bed of the Nasik hospital, India. Mrs. J. E. Hargan and Mrs. James Baxter were ap­ pointed delegates to the annual meeting of the provincial chapter to be held in Hamilton on April 20-21- 22. Mrs. Arnold Branch very ably con­ ducted the empire study of Austral­ ia, showing in a genera] way the dis­ covery of this continent first by Portugal and then by Spain. The Dutch navigators followed ,the Span­ ish and after considerable'*^xplora- tion, rejected it as of no valul Fin­ ally, the British sent James/Cook, one of the greatest navigators of history to explore this country and from his early efforts, England has gradually evoked the present indus­ try and culture of Australia. “Y” GIRL GAGERS WIN AT KITCHENER Return Game Will Be Played Here Next Tuesday. The speedy girls’ basketball Learn- from Ingersoll Community “Y” ac­ complished what no other team has done this year, when in the Twin Cities last Friday night, they took the measure of the tall, sturdy Kit­ chener “Y” girls, to wi» the first of the final games in the Ontario Y.W. C.A. Championships. It was too close for comfort; but then the best games are always the most exciting and tho hardest-fought, and there was no .-me any more thankful, when the fin­ al whistle blew, than Mary Johnston, coach and star player of the visiting team. The Ingersoll girls could do little right in the first quarter of play, although their defense line successfully kept down the scoring on the part of the homesters; but in the final quarter when Kitchener was leading 16-8, Mary started a scoring bee, which heartened her team mates, and quickly brought the tally up to 16-14, by successive counters from the hands of Arlene Greenaway and Jean Kennedy. Then with only two minutes to go, Jean tallied again tie the score, and a moment later the visitors forged ahead on a field basket from Mary Johnston. The homesters scored a single point on a foul in the dying seconds of the game, but this was insufficient to tie it up or recover the lead, and the Kitchener squad suffered their first disappointment of the year, to lose by an 18-17 score. Janet Borrowman, Mary Hall and Marguerite Murray played remark­ able games, their defense against superior height, and their speed in breaking and passing the ball up to the forward line being the prettiest thing in cage play aeen iri the league this season. Helen MacDougall, back in the game for a short while fol­ lowing a disappointing year on the side-lines due to injuries, also turned in a creditable game. There is sure to be a packed house for the return game here next Tues­ day, April 12. Admission will be by ticket, obtainable from the "Y”. Meeting of VerschoyleWomen’s AssociationVerschoyle—The March meetingof the Women’s Association was heldon the afternoon of Thursday, Mar.31st, at the home of Mrs. Walter Ellery, with an attendance of 25. The afternoon was spent in knitting, sewing and cutting out aprons. The president, Mrs. H. Albright, had charge of the meeting which began with singing hymn 179, followed with prayer by Mrs. Chas. Furtney. The scripture lesson, 17th chapter of John, was read by Mrs. John Dafoe. The secretary’s and treasurer’s re­ ports were read and adopted. The roll was called and dues paid. The secretary read several letters of thanks for flowers. It was decided to have all group monies turned in at the April meeting. Hymn 30 sung and the meeting closed with a benediction by the president. The hostess served refreshments and a pleasant time was spent socially. The Scotsman couldn’t find tick­ et. On the conductor’s second round it was still missing. “What’s that in your mouth?’’ the conductor asked. Sure enough, there was the mint­ ing ticket. The conductor punched iv and went his way. “Ah, wed,’* said Sandy, when sev­ eral of the passengers laughed, ‘Tm nae so absent-minded. It was a very auld ticket and I was just suckin’ off the date.” WANTED TO BUYWANTED TO BUY—Feed barley,wheat and field peas. Box No. N.,. Tribune. FOR SALEFOR SALE-1020 McCormick-Deer­ing Tractor.

Gasoline Requires Special Containers Many of our readers may be sur­ prised to learn that they are causing their hardware dealers and garage­ men to break the law in asking them to supply their customers with small quantities of gasoline in other than aji approved metal type safety con­ tainer. Section 39 of the Gasoline Act provides that such containers must be used for handling quantities of gasoline under 5 gallons. These cans should bear a label printed in bold type and warning that the con­ tents are dangerous and should not be exposed to fire or flame and should not be used for cleaning pur­ poses in any building. These regul­ ations should receive the careful at­ tention of those buying naphtha gas especially. The Ontario Insurance Act provides that if a fire results In any premises from gasoline kept in a glass container, the insurance pol­ icy shall be void. PERSONA! MEN!

PublisherPHONES:—Tribune Office, IS - Residence, 442A.THURSDAY, APRIL 7th, 1938Lessons In WarThe fighting in Spain and China has been studiedcarefully by military men of the whole world, seekingknowledge of the effectiveness of modern weaponsof offense and defense to guide them in determininghow their own nations ought to arm for self-protect-ion. Opinions diffei, of course, but there seems to begeneral agreement on some points. Airplanes are an effective weapon of offense, as has been horribly demonstrated, but the best defense against an air attack is not airplanes, but anti aircraft guns, say the experts. Before the defending planes can get off the ground, the attackers have dropped their bombs and passed on. But modern long range rifles, accurate at ten miles, can bring down the ene­ my planes, provided there are enough of such guns. As a defensive weapon against naval attacks, the experts seems to agree that airplanes are of the high­ est value. Whether bombs from a plane can actual­ ly sink a battleship remains to be demonstrated, but that they can sink cruisers and smaller craft has been amply proven. So far these current wars have not proved any­ thing about the efficacy of poison gas, one way or the other. There is great difference of opinion as to whether gas can be as effective as many fiction writ­ ers represent it to be. It seems the wise course is to prepare defences against gas attacks, as European nations are doing; though ii seems extremely un­ likely that any enemy venturing to attack Canada would be able to bring across the ocean and use enough gas to do any material damage. The lessons for both Canada and the United States which have so far been drawn from the ghastly war­ fare abroad, are that we must protect our coasts by a navy large and efficient enough to beat back any possible attack from the sea, and back up the Navy with a powerful fleet of airplanes. Then we may remain at peace. Limestone Limestone is a general term to indicate rocks comnoscd of carbonate of lime. They may vaiy in colorTfrom white to nearly black. Most of the limestones are of marine origin and consist of the different types of marine life, particularly various types of corals and mollusks. The purity of it de­ pends largely upon the nature of the ocean bed. Muddy bottoms where such organisms as clams live, result in rock which will be of a shaley nature, but where shells are mingled with sand, the rock will be more like sandstone. The purest form comes from where corals or oysters have fastened themselves to a rock bottom. Many limestones result from partic­ les of dust falling into water charged with carbonate of lime. When subjected to heat and pressure, limestone undergoes a recrystallization and all traces of the orginal organisms are lost. In this way we get the rock that is known as marble. There is a growing demand for finely pulverized limestone for use as a mineral filler in the manufac­ ture of rubber, linoleum, oilcloth and putty. Finely crushed limestone is continually coming into more extensive use as a filler in chemical fertilizers, re­ placing inert fillers such as sand. A new use for it is in the manufacture of rock wool for heat and sound insulation. According to the Mining, Metallurgical and Chem­ ical Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Department of Trade and Commerce, the sales of limestone produced in Canadian quarries in 1936 amounted to four million tons, an increase of 179,- 000 tons over the year before. This does not in­ clude the limestone consumed in the cement industry nor the 800,000 tons that were burnt in the manu­ facture of lime. ^Evaporated Milk The Great War taught us many things about food; among them is an increased appreciation of milk. In three months of the occupancy of Belgium the num­ ber of cows was reduced from 1,800,000 to 700,000. At that point the protests of the Relief Commission halted the slaughter, but in Northern France abso­ lutely all the cattle were taken before the Relief Commission arrived.' What was to become of the babies was the problem and it is safe to say that there was scarcely a child born in the north of France—which is also true of many in Belgium—whose continued life was not de­ pendent during all that period upon condensed milk, much of which was sent from Canada. The children got a pitiable ration but it enabled them to survive. It saved millions of lives. But the processes of condensation and evaportion, along with hermetic sealings, milk can be reduced in bulk and canned so £hat it will keep for years. It was only as late as in 1900 that the method of evaporating milk completely and reducing it to a powder was discovered. Man is now no'longer de­ pendent upon his neighborhood for his milk supply. Canadian condensed and evaporated milk goes far abroad, where it is too hot to produce or keep milk, such as Guiana and Equatorial Africa; or too dry as in parts of British South Africa^ or too cold as in Greenland; or too mountainous as in some mining districts of British Columbia, or wherever prospectors or travellers wander. In 1936 the export of evap­ orated. milk .alone, seemingly the favorite, was about , 70 tons, goisif to many lands and islands of the sea, according to the External" Trade Branch of the Do­ minion Bureau of Statistics. Department of Trade and Commerce. The Expectancy of Life Combining both the ages of men and women, fig­ ures have been released showing the life expectancyin variourf lands. New Zeahind^leads with 66& years, Holland 63, Sweden and Denmark each 62, Australia and the United States each 61, England 59, Germany 57, Italy 55,. Russia 44, Japan 42. In all lands women live longer than^men, and Canada for instance affords thia comparison: Males 59 1-3 years, females 61 Mi years. In any event the term "weaker sex” baa long since gone into the discard. THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 193«Pork-Eating Canadian,As consumers of meat, it was a surprise to findtwo or three years ago that the Canadian people hadswung from pork to beef. In 1933 the per capitaconsumption of pork was 75 pounds and of beef 55pounds. In 1934, however, the consumption of beefwas 69 pounds and of pork 67. Beef was again theleader in 1935, but in 1936 the consumption of porkwas once more in the lead with 68 pounds to 60 percapita There are more than twice at. many cattle onCanadian farms as swine.The Canadian people eat far more poultry thanmutton. The consumption of poultry was 18pounds per capita last year, while that of mutton andlamb was only six pounds. Canadians are amongstthe smallest mutton consuming people in the world. It might be said that chicken is the favorite meat dish and that, except around Christmas, comparative­ ly little turkey, duck or goose is to be found "on the dinner table. There are more geese than ducks on Canadian farms but more turkeys than the two of these combined, the number of turkeys being over two million. There are 56 million hens and chickens busy around the barn-yard, according to the Agricul­ tural Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Department of Trade and Commerce.

Thatwas the sensation I had a few weeks ago when I visited a new Marine Studio that has just been completed with the most modern facilities for keeping live fish. In great concrete tanks with windows in their sides and bottoms, all sorts of marine an­ imals and fish swim in seawater which has been filtered until it is so clear one can take photographs through it. The purpose is to make it possible for scientists to study marine life under natural conditions, but just as a show it is as entertaining as any­ thing I have ever seen. Watching shrimps wiggle their feet as they swim, sharks of various sizes and COSMETICS, PAST AND PRESENT Women—savage or educated, primitive or modern —have always striven to make themselves beau­ tiful, and to keep themselves so. Even St. Augustine, who lived around 350 A.D., commented on beautiful women. Euclid, Horace, Marcus, Aure­ lius, Shakespeare, Byron, Keats, Shelley, Longfellow, Tennyson and a host of more modern poets and writers have praised feminine beauty. AFRICAN BEAUTY The African belle makes hideous cuts on her body, rubs dirt into the wounds so that when healed they leave large welts; the Eskimo female greases and paints her face, as do the women of various Indian tribes; Chinese women try to develop large ears be­ cause the masculine mind appreciates them; other nations and tribes pay special attention to the hair, the fingers, the eyes and the feet. Standards of beauty vary with the time, the place and the women, but nevertheless, the female of all ages, do what they think will enhance their attractiveness. CLEOPATRA 4,000 years B. C. the Egyptians devoted much time and thought to this subject. Beautician’s parlors were to be found in the smallest cities. Cleopatra was noted for her luxurious perfumes and hair. Face creams were used for centuries before the birth of Christ, as was the lip stick, the eyebrow pencil, rouge and the other materials which are nowadays part of the equipment of every lady. TEST BEAUTY AIDS An English physician who has devoted years to the study of the various preparations used to beautify women finds, after experimenting with forty women, who applied a well-known face cream to one side of the face^only, that twenty-four showed not the slight­ est difference as far as the other cheek was con­ cerned. /Twelve did show some roughness where the cream had not been used. He too ascertained that the cream did not clog the pores or prevent the proper functioning jof the skin-glands. But he did conclude that pure soap and water were as beneficial as the most expensive face creams and did keep the face clean and make it attractive. FIFTY-NINE YEARS AGO kinds, and that most interesting of sea mammals, the porpoise, is far more fascinating than I can make it sound. From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Wednesday, April 9th, 1879 A call has been extended by the Baptist Church at Woodstock to the Rev. Mr. Johnstone, from theState of Vermont, 9 Hamilton Corbett sang in the town hall on Monday evening to a very meagre audience. It has been arranged that the consecration of Rev. Archdeacon Sweatman, of Woodstock, as Bishop of Toronto, will take place in St. James* Cathedral, Thursday. Rev. R. N. Grant occupied the pulpit of S t An­ drew’s Church, London, both morning and evening, and Rev. J. A. Murray of St. Andrew’s London, preached two^very excellent sermons in Knox Church here. A debate will take place in the basement of Knox Church on Monday evening next, under the auspices of the Young People’s Improvement Society—“Re­ solved that private or select dancing is an improper or sinful amusement.” The affirmative will be sus­ tained by Messrs. Wm. Sutherland and Wm. Dickson, and the negative by Messrs. A. G. Murray and Dr. McKay. , A terrible accident, attended with fatal conse­ quence at Arthur’s saw mill, near the village of T^m- beth, occurred, when a former Oxford man, Robert Duncan, became entangled in the machinery and was frightfully mutilated. At the request of a number of ratepayers in town and adjacent townships, the Board of Trade met last night in the council chamber to consider the subject of the C. V. R. extension to St. Marys. A hot sugar social is being given in the King Street Methodist Church under the auspices of the Girls’ Auxiliary to the Ladies Aid.

TODAY and vTOMORROWby Frank Barker Stockbridge Modernize Tow Form Houses—and BarerSNOW WHITE . . . Uviag mythI seldom go to the movies unlessdragged there by some of my fam­ily. The general run of screen pic­tures bore me, chiefly because theyfalsify the realities of life. But afew nights ago I was alone in Wash­ington and went to a movie whichfascinated me so that I sat through a second showing. “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" makes no pretense of pictur­ ing reality. It is a fairy-tale told on the screen with life and color, translating into action the imaginary world of folklore and ancient myth which is the dream heritage of all of us. This great movie, which prob­ ably everyone ,who reads this has seen, is more than that, however. It is, as I see it, the most successful effort yet made to realize the artistic possibilities of the movies. To my thinking, the motion pic­ ture people put too much emphasis on the personalities of the actors, not enough on the story and its tell­ ing. Walt Disney has proved, in "Snow White”, that grown ups and children alike can be as interested in a film which does not pretend to be anything but a picture. • • • SLEEP ... in the morning From my earliest boyhood I have rebelled againgst getting up early in the morning. I had Ben Franklin’s maxim, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”, drummed into me from infancy, but it always seemed to me that there was a catch in it some­ where. Now comes Dr. Joseph Jastrow, /world-famous psychologist, and con­ firms my life-long belief. He says, in so many words, that “there is ab­ solutely no virtue in early rising.” He is in favor of getting all the sleep possible in the early morning. The old adage doubtless was sound in Ben Franklin’s day, when most folk were farmers and had to be up al sunrise or earlier to feed and water the livestock, milk the cows and do other farm chores. There ' wasn't any good excuse to stay up late, either, before the days of elec­ tric light. You ruined ypur eyes if you tried to read by cand'elight; there was no radio to listen to, no movies to see. Why should n I folks go to bed early in those days? I agree with Dr. Jastrow that there is no common-sense in having a fixed hour for getting up, regard­ less of whether one is still sleepy or •not.• • • FLYING . . . most Intricate la be an airplane transport pilot is the ambiiion of a great and grow­ ing number of boys. But it is also a job winch cails for long, hard work in training. The modern transport oi military plane is the most com­ plicated piece of machinery ever made and' as such it requires more brains, skill, competence and judg­ ment to operate than anything else tha't move*. There -is already a demand for competent pilots greater than tho supply, and that demand will increase with the building- of more trans­ oceanic passenger planes and the growth of the United States air ser­ vices. Not long ago I visited the Naval Air Station at. Pensacola, Florida, one of the four'great train­ ing schools for aviators which the Government maintains to develop pilots not only for military service but for commercial aviation as well. I was impressed by the high level of intelligence and the immense amount of work and study required before a flying cadet got his wings. It’s nice work if you can get it, but to pilot an international Clipper plane one must not only know how1 to fly and have perfect health, but he must be- a weather expert, a skilled mechanic, a first-class seaman, a master mariner, a radio expert, an aeronautical engineer, an engine and airplane mechanic, and a celestial navigator, with a lawyer’s knowledge of international law. S N O W ...................................telltale. Coming North in mid-March I encountered my first snowstorm of the season in northern Virginia. All the way up to my Pennsylvania home I was struck, as I have often been before, with the sure signs along the highway indicating the normal climate of the regions I passed through. Even in midsummer you can tell, in driving through a country dis­ trict, whether they have much snow there in Winter. In my old ’New England home people built their houses close to the'road and their barns and woodsheds right up against them, to forestall being snowed in in the Winter.

BANK OF MONTREAL established »ai7 "a bank whtrt small accounts art welcome” HOUSE and HOME — by Mary E. Dague — Author of Sister Mary's Kitchen Fattening Food, Of course, the person who is eating to grow thin will have to give up pies and cakes and all desserts be­ ginning and ending with cream, but ?he may partake of almost any fruit ice, providing it isn’t too sweet, many gelatine desserts, most of the snows and those puddings made with fruits and Irish moss or agaragar in place of cornstarch. It’s well to remember, too, that desserts made with yolk of egg are fattening while those made with white of an egg or not. Some desserts are simple enough themselves but their sauces contain the damaging flesh-producing calories. Often, it’s the sauce that solves the problem of the same dessert for the reducing member of the family and those who have no fear of calories. Whipped cream served with a plain fruit gelatine makes the dessert attractive for the family while the lack of whipped cream makes the same dessert desirable for the member who is reducing. Gay Spring Mode, Never were buttons so gay and amusing as they are this season. Colorful fruits, tiny baskets of flow- cis os well as the beloved characters from Mother Goose are being used on prints and plain fabrics. Old Mother Hubbard, Little Red Riding Hood, the Old Woman who Lived in a Shoe, Tom the Piper’s Son and Other renowned persons of our nur­ sery rhymes are fashioned from cat- alin in lovely shades of blues, green, orange and red. Waist lines are exceedingly import­ ant this spring. The tendency is to­ ward a lower placed line. This effect is often accomplished by a flat manipulation of the hip line rather than an actual dropping of the girdle or belt. The idea conforms to the “fitted" look that appeared last fall. Hats are altogether charming. Flowers, feathers, ribbons and veils arc used for trimming. Narrow rib­ bon chin straps and wide chiffon scarfs add interest to many shapes. Taffeta hats have returned along with the large old-fashioned hat pin set with sparkling stones. She—"I’m simply dying to know what you think of me.” He—“Why, you know I think you’re terribly attractive!" She—“No, but honestly — you know me as well as anybody else does—what’s your honest opinion?” He—“Well, I honestly think there’s a lot more in you than in most girls.” She—“Do you really think so?” He—“I honestly do . . . What do you honestly think of me?” She—“Well, I really think* you’re awfully Interesting—but 1 think • you’re sort of hard to understand.” He (fatuously)—“Just what do you mean?” She—“Well, I honestly think you’ve got a lot more in you than most men.” He—“Do you really think so?” She—“I do ... I think it’s aw­ fully interesting to find out what a person really thinks of you, don’t you?” He—“Yes, it’s so revealing, isn’t it?” “Is your wife having any success in learning to drive a car?” “Well the road is beginning to 1 turn when she does.” GIVE US NEWS There has never been a news­ paper printed that satisfied everybody. But there is a very simple method by which better newspapers can be produced and that is for those who subscribe to them to take an individual interest in seeing that they get more local and personal news. Not that the subscriber is expected to be-, come a reporter when ho becomes a subscriber, but be­ cause the newspaper stands as the exponent of all that is good for the community and because civic pride should, therefore, lead to encouragement of such an institution. If the subscriber has visitors, if he has been on a visit or if he or she is going op one, the neighbors are sure to be interested in knowing about it. . Tell them through the columns of the Ingersoll Tribune. Every little item of a local or personal nature helps just that much to make a still better newspaper and getting it to the editor requires very little exertion on the part of anyone. That is how the subscriber can help make The Tribune more interesting, and subscribers are invited to start doing so at once. The minister was visiting one of his parishioners and was talking to her small son. “And do you say your prayere every night, Jimmy?” asked the clergyman. “Not every night,” blithely replied the lad. “Some nights I don’t want anything.” jTLAB-TESf^. w A Symbol of Public Safety Thia seal of protection la the emblem of Kennedy Biological Laboratories Dairy Service.

How Soap Help* ToRemove Greasy DirtIf your hands are thoroughly dirtywith oil or grease, just rinsing themla clear water doesn’t dean themreadily. If however, you work upa good lather with soap and water,and work the soap well into yourhands, rinsing will then wash awayboth the lather and the oil.A simple experiment will indicatewhat produced the change: If youshould pour some oil into a bottlecontaining clear water and thenshake the mixture vigorously, the oilwould break up into myriads of verytiny droplets scattered throughoutthe water. If then, you were to stopshaking the bottle and let it stand, the droplets of oil would gradually rise to the top of the water and join together. If, however, instead of clear water you should put soapy water into the bottle and then repeat the experi­ ment of adding oil; after shaking the tiny droplets of oil would not join together as before. The soap causes a thin film to form round each droplet of oil, preventing it from joining its mates. This action is called emulsifying the oil. Very much the same thing hap­ pens when you wash greasy hands or clothes. Oil and clear water will not mix, and plain water does not do a very good job of removing oil or grease from hands or clothing. How­ ever, with the use of soap in wash­ ing with the rubbing taking the place of shaking the bottle in the experi­ ment, the oil is broken up into tiny particles, which are prevented from joining together again by being emulsified. These separated particles may readily be rinsed off along with the soap suds, leaving the hands or clothes free from the grease or oil.

TESTED RECIPES Macaroni Diihe* For Lent During Lent, the more or less re­ stricted range of foods taxes the in­ genuity of the homemaker in creat­ ing varied and attractive meals. The foods most common during the Len­ ten season as staples of the menu are fish, eggs, cheese , vegetables, milk, macaroni, spaghetti, and egg ncodles. The last three are included in Canadian macaroni products, for the manufacture of which the name of the Dominion is now becoming famous. It will be remembered that in 1935 Canada ousted Italy fom the first place as the largest supplier of macaroni to the British market. Macaroni products require a mini­ num of time and labour to prepare. They should be boiled in plenty of boiling salted water, and they com­ bine naturally with other foods, such us milk, cheese, eggs, .and vegetables. The following are a few Lenten dish suggestions; Spanish Macaroni Casserole 1-2 lb. Canadian macaroni 1-4 lb. grated cheese or cut in small pieces. 1-2 cup diced celery 2 medium onions (chopped fine) 1 can whole tomatoes 2 tablespoons chopped green pepper 3 tablespoons butter 2 caps .white sauce (medium thick) Salt and pepper to taste. Cook onion, green pepper and cel­ ery in the butter until tender. Cook macaroni in boiling salted water until tender and drain. Combine macar­ oni and cooked onion mixture, ar­ range in layers in baking dish, with alternate layers of cheese and tomat­ oes. Season and pour white sauce over it; Cover and bake 30 min­ utes at 350 degrees. NEWS AND INFORMATION Soy* Bean Product* Soya beans yield an oil which is used in the manufacture of soap, margarine and lard substitutes, and, owing to its semi-drying properties, may also be used as a substitute for linseed oil. The flour derived from the bean is used as a foodstuff and the oilcake as animal feed and fertil­ izer. In several countries, the soya bean is the principal forage crop, and in Canada it is giving every indi­ cation of becoming a valuable addi­ tion to the fields crops of Canada. Need Hog* of Right Weight Export of surplus Canadian pork products ensures a strong hog mar­ ket, but the production of sufficient hogs suitable for export is a serious problem, particularly hogs of the de­ sired weight (190 to 200 lb.) For 1937 it is estimated that Canada’s bacon exports will be approximately ISO,000,000 lb., equivalent to 1,583,- 000 live hogs. In 1932 the exports of bacon, hams, and pork cuts to the United Kingdom totalled 35,820,400 lb.; in 1934, 120,410,200 lb„ and in 1936, 158,049,600 lb. Mu*t Label Fertilizer* Every mixed fertilizer on sale in Canada must contain at least 14 per cent, nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash, singly or combined. Minimum quantities for each are established. Fertilizer constituent materials are standardized and subject to minimum percentages of plant food substan­ ces. Every fertilizer must be label­ led to show the brand names and guaranteed analysis. A motorist on holiday in Ireland, was driving through Galaway when he found himself lost He stopped the car and called to a villager far­ ther-down the road. "Can you tell me the way to Bal- linasloe?” he .asked. * The Irishman scratched Ms head. "Sure, yer honor, you go down the road about ten miles and then turn to the right—"Here he stopped and ♦bought again. •'No you go back the way you’ve come and turn to the left—" Again he stopped. Then with a sudden burst of confidence, he added: "Begorrah, if I was going to Bsl- linasloe I wouldn’t start from here." Caller—"I should like to see the Judge.” Secrotary—“Sorry, sir, bu; he is at dinner." Caller—"But my man, my errand is of vital 'mportance.” Secretary—“It can’t be helped, sir, his Honor is at steak." A schoolboy ■ was told to write an essay of 100 words on “Motoring.” He wrote—"We went out in our car the other day. The car broke down. The other 87 words are what Dfid said." The politician was very pleased with himself—although, actually he had very little reason to be! His self­ satisfaction annoyed many of his friends and one of them decided to take a rise out of him one day. "Ah, hallo,’’ said the friend slap­ ping the budding <M. P. on the back, "1 knew you when your name was unknown." “Sir," came the reply, "I’ll have you know that my ancestors came over with William the Conqueror.” "And I remember you when you hadn’t a shirt to your back," per­ sisted the friend. “This is simply monstrous. I come from a very wealthy family.” "And I’ve seen you rolIing/Sbout quite incapable of standing on your, own feet,” the other went on. "I am a teetotaler, sir," said the politican in a rage. "And you will hear from my solicitors!" “Dont* take offense, old chap,” laughed the friend. "You see, I was present at your christening."

WILSONDeath shortly after seven o’clock■ n Wednesday evening, March 30th,claimed a widely known and highlyVteemed resident of Ingersoll, in theperson of Frances Bailey, dearly be­loved wife of William Wilson, 231Thames atreet south. Deceased hadbeen in her usual health until abouthalf an hour before her death whenshe was stricken with a heart seizure from which she never recovered. Mra. Wilson was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Bailey, and was born near Newark in Oxford County. She was in her 77th year and for upwards of thirty years had lean a resident of Ingeraoll. For some time the family resided on Charles street west and of late years in the cottage just north of the Bap- ti*t Church on Thames street. Pre­ vious to coming to Ingersoll Mr. and Mrs. Wilson farmed in Dereham Township for about twenty-five years. Deceased was a member of Trinity United Church and for a number of years associated herself with the various women's organiza­ tions of the congregation. Mrs. Wilson was widely known throughout the town and district and her many friends will join in extend­ ing their deepest sympathy to the sorrowing husband and family, who are left to mourn her loss. Surviv­ ing besides her husband, are two sons, Walter Wilson, Dereham Town­ ship; James Leonard Wilson, Niagara Falls, N. Y., and two daughters, Mrs. Arzina A. Simmons, London, and Mrs. John G. Rawlings, Ingersoll, also twelve grandchildren and four great­ grandchildren. The funeral was held from the family residence, 231 Thames street south, on Saturday afternoon where an impressive service was conducted nt 2.30 o’clock, by Rev. R. B. Cum­ ming of Salford. During the ser­ vice, which was very largely attend­ ed, Miss Mabel Clark sang as a vocal solo, “The Glory Song,” with Mra. Ewart A. Bartley acting as her ac­ companist. There was a large num­ ber of beautiful floral tributes, which with the many in attendance at the funeral, bore testimony to the es­ teem of a very wide circle of friends. Interment was made in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery, the pallbearers being six grandsons of the deceased: Leroy Wilson, Morton Wilson, Cecil U ilson, Norval Foster, Ray Robin­son and George Winder. Four othergrandsons acted as flower bearera,namely, Wilson Foster, Barton Fos­ter, Walter Wilson and Delbert Wil­son.Someone was praising the publicschools to Charles Landseer, and said,“All our best men are public schoolmen. Look at our poeta. There’sByron; he was a Harrow boy.”“Yes,” interrupted Landseer, “andthere’s Burns; he waa a plowboy.” Let Us Give You An Estinurie On Your Next PAINTING AND DECORATING WORK Spray Painting and Floor Resurfacing a Speciality F.

As he swung the ponderous door back. Icould easily see, from where I stood, the figure of Porter Quaggy-outside.“What do you want?” Heath de- werewish todislocate your hip.

Heath sang out with satisfaction, just as Irciched the ground and took a tighter hold on my automatic.Vance brushed by me from aroundthe tree and stood directly in front of Heath“My dear fellow—oh. my dearfellow!” he said with quick stern­ ness. “Don’t be too precipitate ’’As he spoke, two taxicabs swung crazilv along the pedestrian walk on'the left with a continuous shrillblowing of horns. They came to a jerky slop with a tremendous clatterand squeaking of brakes. Then the two chauffeurs leaped out of thecabs and came rushing to the scene with sub-machine guns."Step back. . Sergeant,” Vancecommanded. "You’re far too rough.I'll handle this situation." Some­ thing in his voice overrode Heath'szeal—there was no ignoring the au­ thority his words carried. BothHeath and Sullivan released theirhold on the silent figure betweenthem.The apprehended culprit did not move, except to reach up and pushback the visor of ’ the toque cap,revealing the face in the glare of the searchlights.There before us. leaning weaklyand shakily on a straight snakewoodstick, the package of false banknotes still clutched tightly in the left hand, was the benign, yet cyni­cal Mr< Andrews Fallow-ay. Herfare showed no trace of fear or of agitation. In fact, djere was an air of calm satisfaction in her somewhattriumphant gaze. In her deep, cultured voice shesaid, as if exchanging pleasantrieswith some one at an afternoon tea: “How are you, Mr. Vance?”“I am quite well, thank you. Mrs.Falloway," Vance returned suavely, frith a courteous bqw.Just then a slender form skulked swiftly across the lawn from thenear-by path and, without a word,joined the group directly behind the woman. It was Fraim Falloway.His expression was both puzzled anddowncast. Vance threw him a quickglance, but took no more notice ofhim. His mother must have seen him out of the corner of her eye,but she showed no indication thatshe was aware of her son’s presence. “You're out late tonight, Mrs.Falloway," Vance was saying gra­ ciously. "Did you enjoy your eve­ning stroll?”"J at least found it very profit­ able." the woman answered with ahardening voice. As she spoke she held out the package. “Here’s thebundle—containing money, I be­lieve—which I found in the hole of the tree. I'm getting rather old forlovers’ trysts. Don’t you think so?" Vance took the package and threwit to Heath who caught it with auto­matic dexterity. The Sergeant, as WMP as the. rest of the group, waslooking on in stupefied astonishment at the strange and unexpected littledrama. "I am sure you will never be tooold for lovers' trysts,” murmuredVance."You’re an outrageous flatterer,Mr. vance/’ smiled the woman. <"Tell me. what do you really think «of me after this little—what shallwe call it?—escapade tonight?""I think you’re a very loyal <mother," he said in a low voice, his i eyes fixed on the woman. Quicklyhis mood changed again. “But, really, y’ know, it’s dampish, andfar too late for you to walk home.”Then he looked at the gaping Heath"Sergeant, can either of your pseudo- ichauffeurs drive his taxi with a <modicum of safety?"“Sure they can,” stanuuM^ .•Heath. --------------” "That's bully—what?C m i d *■He moved to Mrs. “A swell bunch of cheap dicks I’’ Quaggy sneered.

A moment later they were headed toward ‘.the main trafficLrtery which leaqj to Central Park Tap gems attributed, to Sir Boyle Rocne: "The cup of our trouble is run­ ning over, but, alas! it is not yet full.’’ "A man would willingly spend his last shilling to save the remainder his fortune.” manded bluntly, birring the way 7”1 don’t want anyt.img,” Quaggy returned in a cold, unfriendly voice;”—if that answer will benefit you in any way—except to ask how Mrs.Kenting is and if you know any­thing more about Kaspar.” "Let the Johnnie come in, Ser­geant,” Vance called out in a low. commanding voice. ‘Til tell himwhat he wants to know. And I alsodesire to ask him a question or two.” Quaggy stepped inside briskly andjoined us in the drawing-room."Well, whjfr happened tonight?” he asked."Nothing—really nothing,” Vance answered casually, without lookingup. “Positively nothing. Quite afizzle, don’t y* know. Very sad. . . . But I am rather glad you decided topay us this impromptu visit, Mr. Quaggy. Would you mind tellingus where you were tonight?”“I was at home fretting aboutKaspar. Where were you'"Vance smiled and sighed. “Not that it should concern youin the slightest, sir,” he said in hismost dulcet voice, "but—since you ask—I was climbing a tree. Silly­pastime—what?”Quaggy swung about to Kenting."You raised the money, Kenyon,and complied with the instructions in the follow-up note?” he asked."Yes,” Kenting said in a lowvoice, "but it did no good.” “A swell bunch of cheap dicks,”Quaggy sneered. "Didn’t any one show up to collect?”“Oh. yes. Mr. Quaggy.” It was vance who answered. "Some onecalled for the money at the appoint­ed hour, and actually took it. The culprit is here with us in this room.”Quaggy straightened with a start. "The fact is,” went on Vance, "Iescorted the guilty person home my­self. It was Mrs. Falloway.” Before the man had time to sayanything Vance continued lacka-| laisically. "By the by. Mr. Quaggy, are you’particularly interested in blackopals?

Anything-Ise? ’ Quacgy was ftanding relaxedbut motionless in front' of Vance.Slowly he moved one foot forward, as if shifting the burden of hisweight from an overtired leg. Byan almost imperceptible movement his foot came to within a few inchesof Vance’s shoe. >"Really, y’ know.*’ Vance said with a cold smile, lifting his eyes to P ICOBAC ----“ PIPE -----— ----L TOBACCO,-------- FOR A MILD. COOL SMOKE bought them from Kaspar last night,as he said he needed som* immedi­ ate cash for the evening.” “I’ve suspected for a long time."Mrs. Falloway said, “that Kaspar had been resorting to that collectionjf gems for gambling money. . . . But I’m very tired, and I'm suffi­ciently rested now to return to myroom. . . .” “But, Mrs. Falloway," blurtedKenting, I—I don’t understand your being in the park tonight. Why—why—?” "Mr. Vance understands.” she an­swered curtly. “That, I think, isquite sufficient.” Her gaze shifted from Kenting and she seemed totake us all in with a gracious glance.“Good night, gentlemen. ...” She started unsteadily toward thedoor, and Vance sprang to her side. "Permit me, madam, to accom­pany you. It’s a long climb to yourroom.” T he woman bowed a courteousacknowledgment and, for the second time that evening, took his arm.Markham, with a significant look atthe Sergeant, left his chair and lock the woman's free arm. Heath movedcloser to Quaggy who remained standing. Mr- i alloway, with hertwo escorts, went riewiy from Jbetjrawing-room, and I followed them.

You canbe an old-fashioned girl In coral—the round beads or the branch type,or in replicas of mother's andgrandmother's chains and lockets. You can have ‘'birds, beasts andfishes"—or Insects—on the lapel ofthe coat, at your throat or clippedto dress or hat. You can wear theloveliest flowers in enamels andmetals, in exquisite colors. Andyou calf wear pearls—many of them,a large clip, for instance, like abunch of grapes, and necklacesgalore.Necklaces were never more orig­inal. Some of them, accompaniedby matching bracelets, are remin­iscent of the festive Hottentot, andthe wearer would feel perfectly athome beating a tom-tom. I hopeHottentots do beat tom-toms, by theway. Brilliant Colors Combined Brilliant colors are combined tn this jewelry. Gold and bright red, gold and silver with every other color of the rainbow. Some sets are in the pastel shades—palest yellows, blues and pinks—the latter very popular and worn with every color. Moonstone Jewelry In the picture some of the new moonstone jewelry is worn with ablack crepe dress and has a silver fox fur. The brooch has six centremoonstones encircled by a row ofthe same stones. A matchingbracelet is slim, dainty and flex­ible. The milky translucence cithe stones, which come in pink orblue, are reminiscent of the Gibsongirl era, this note being carried outin the two-tiered straw hat finishedwith a face veil winch ties in aperky bow at the back.The smartest women this springare not necessarily the ones whoput the most money Into theirclothes. They are the ones whoavail themselves of the little acces­sory touches which give their cos­tumes distinction.

How Blotting Paper Was Discovered Both blotting paper and its uee were discovered by chance. In a certain mill in Berkshire, England, one day in the early eight­ een hundreds, a workman neglected to put the sizing in a butch of writ­ ing paper that was being manufac­ tured. His failure ruined the whole Latch, so far as its intended uw was concerned. However, in spite of his deep irritation, the proprietor did not throw away the supposedly worthless paper; and one day he took h»> pen in hand to write a note using a sheet of the unsized paper. The result annoyed him greatly, for the ink in his pen spread merrily in seraggly “crow’s feet” all over the surface of the paper. He had the wit in spite of his an­ noyance, to observe the eagerness with which this paper sucked the ink fiom his quill. He decided that such an ink-thirsty fiber would do nicely for drying or blotting ink, and would be a-definite improvement over the sprinkling of sand over wet handwriting, as was then the univer­ sal custom. Experiments bore out this theory, and the mill proprietor had little dif­ ficulty in selling his entire stock of unsized paper; and his success m the venture led to the general abandon­ ment of sand-shakers in favor of blotting paper. It is curious to note for a long time, practically all blotting paper was pink in color. This was the con­ sequence of the fact that red rag» were used in its manufacture. Red, being usually a fast and per­ sistent color, was quite difficult to bleach completley, and paper made from red rags had a pinkish tinge which was not at all popular in writ­ ing stationery. However, pink was as good a color as any for blotting paper, and thus u profitable use was found for red rags, which were otherwise consider­ ed useless for the manufacture of of paper. Demand and Get A SP IR IN Z^I A youth had just driven home from college for the week-end, fol­ lowing the mid-term examinations: Mother (anxiously) — “Did you pass everything?” Youth—“Everything but two cars. They must have had airplane motors in them.” The Ingersoll Little Theatre pre­sented three one-ad plays, “The. Grand Cham’s Diamond,” “To The Dead Man,” and “The Invisible Duke,” before a capacity audience in the town half, on Thursday even­ ing, March 31st. Dr. Alan Skin­ ner, president of the London Little Theatre, and Mrs. Skinner, were pre­ sent for the performance. Mrs. Skin­ ner acted as adjudicator for the plays and was very high in her praise fc» the good work of the Ingersoll Little Theatre members. The second play, was awarded the highest standing by the adjudica­ tor. This was, “To The Dead Man,” by Kathleen Edge, and was drama­ tized from Charles Dickens’ "The Lazy Tour of Two Idle Appren­ tices.” It was produced by permis­ sion of MacMillan Company Limited, under the direction of Miss Estelle Carney. The scene was a room in an old English Inn and the characters were Jack Hutt, as Arthur Holliday, a young gentleman, son of a wealthy manufacturer; Howard C. Aseltine, as the landlord of the Inn, and Clark Fellow as The Dead Man. The acting was particularly difficult and the three taking part were never out of character. Mrs. Skinner praised the work of Clark Pellow and declared it quite outstanding. Z f “The Invisible Duke,” a Gothic Farce, by F. Sladcn Smith, was pro­ duced by special permission of Sam­ uel French, Canada, Limited. This was under the direction of Mrs. C- K. Long, and the scene was the lab­ oratory of an astrologer, played by Robert F. Walton. This was the last play of the evening and the longest of the three. It was also well praised by. the adjudicators who highly commended the work of Rob­ ert Walton and Jack Mayberry. This play was an especially weird affair, with a background that was at once difficult, amusing, interesting and at times, almost bordering on the tragic. The costumes and the scenery used in this performance held the audi­ ence from the start to the finish. The play was splendid in action—it got off to a remarkably good start and that spirit remained with the players throughout. Robert Walton turned in a performance that will long linger in the minds of all who saw him. His speeches were lengthy and dilficult and his mannerisms were beyond description. Throughout this entire play, there was no promp­ ting and the audience was held spell­ bound for minutes at a time. Jack Mayberry as “the duke”, won the audience with his fine acting ability. Ho-was superb, to put it mildly. Miss Janet Borrowman as “Nekko.’L one of the attendants of the astrol­ oger, received much favorable com­ ment from the adjudicator, who felt that she had really lived her part. Others in this play were “Dekko”, an attendant,' Mabel Owen; o "Fran­ cesco,” (cousin of the duke, Brock Owen, and "Emilia,” bethrothed to the duke, Irene Cole. The first play of the evening was “The Grand Cham's Diamond,” pro­ duced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Canada, Limited. This was a more modem style of play, the scene being centred in the the living room in a small house in a Lcndon suburb. The performance of Miss Helen Bower as "Mrs. Per­ kins,” and of Lloyd Denby, as "Mr. 1’erkins,” was excellent,' The com­ ments of the adjudicator on this were while the players did their best with the necessary London awent, it should not be attempted by anyone without an easy ability to undertake it. Others in the play were Betty McNiven as "Miss Polly Perkins,” Hal B. Stevens as "the man in black” and Jack Taylor as "Albert.” This play was directed by Mrs. George Beck. Mrs. Skinner, the adjudicator, urged the Ingersoll Little Theatre Group to enter for competition in the next drama festival for southwestern Ontario. Those responsible for the presen­ tation of the playa and their connect­ ion with the performances were: General Manager, Howard Asel- tine; settings, C. K. Long, Stanley J. Smith; lights, H. B. Stevens; cos­ tumes, Betty Crawford, Mrs. J. W. Counter; Make-up, C. K. Long; tick­ ets and advertising, Hilda Sinister, Edith Wood; posters, J. Hutt, C. K. Long, W. Hawkins. The Little Theatre acknowledges the kind co-operation of Mr. Fred S. Newman in supplying chairs and pro­ viding music for the evening, and S. M. Douglas and Sons, for furniture used in stage properties. ^jThe new stage floor and the scen­ ery was also a great help in the set­ ting for the plays. At the conclus­ ion of the presentation, lunch was served to members of the cast. Prof. John W. MacArthur, of the University of Toronto, who has been mentioned for the post of parlia­ mentary librarian at Ottawa. The post was left vacant by the recent death of Hon. Martin BurelL TILBURY MASONS VISITED KING HIRAM LODGE Officers and members of Naphtali Lodge, No. 413, Tilbury, paid a fra­ ternal visit to King Hiram Lodge, No. 37, A.F. & A.M., Ingersoll, on Friday evening and conferred the third degree on a member of the Til­ bury Lodge who is now a resident of Ingersoll, and also on a member of King Hiram Lodge, No. 37. There was a large number of members of the Masonic Craft present for the occasion in addition to the many Ingersoll brethren. The visitors came bom London, Dorchester, Thames- ford, Embro, Woodstock, Tillson- burg, Mount Elgin and# other centres. ■—" The visiting officers were welcom­ ed by Wor. Bro. Joseph A. Wat- mough, Worshipful Master of King Hiram Lodge. Wor. Bro. W. A. White, Worshipful Master of Naph­ tali Lodge, No. 413, Tilbury, was in the East and assisting him in the conferring of the degree were the following brethren:—LP.M., Wor. Bro. H. C. Hassard; S.W., Wor. Bro. J. F. Holmes: J.W., Bro. Ray Cran­ ston; Sec., Wor. Bro. F. Sawyer; Treas., Wor. Bro, H. G. Williams; Chaplain, Wor. Bro. W. H. Shaw; S.D., Bro. Willis Brophey; J.D., Bro. A. J. Miles; I.G., Bro. Chas. Fox; S.S., Bro. U. D. Mossop; J.S., Bro. Fioyd Hastings; Organist, Wor. Bro. Ceo. Wallace; D. of C., Wor. Bro. E. Cowley, assisting the Worshipful Master, Wor. Bro. Dr. E. Sparlang, Wor. Bro. Geo. King, Wor. Bro. Wm. Robinson. The degree work was exemplified in a most impressive manner and a vote of thanks was expressed to the Tilbury brethren for their efforts by Very Wor. Bro. Harry T. Bower, and seconded by Wor. Bro. Archie Mc- Coombs. During the degree, a choir com­ posed of members of King Hiram and St. John’s Lodges, under the dir­ tion of Bro. Ewart A. Bartley, put on the musical part of the ceremony. Following the work in the lodge rooms, lunch was served in the Masonic banquet hall. A motorist pulled up outside a fill­ ing station on which there was a sign, “Under new management.” “But,” he said to the attendant, “there’s the same manager sitting in his office.-” "Yes,” said the attendant, “but he got married yesterday. * Appointed to BoardJames Brandon, Forest, one ofthe most prominent breeders ofClydesdale horses in Canada, hasbeen appointed a member of theOntario Stallion Enrolment Board,according to Hon. P. M. De wan, On­tario Minister of Agriculture. Hesucceeds the late J. M. Gardhou&e as a member of the Board. Prise* for Litter* The directors of the Ontario York­ shire Club have decided on a new de­ parture in offering |30 in prizes to owners of the three highest York­ shire sows in advanced registry, con­ sidered on slaughter test only with rating decided on four pigs from a litter. There are about 200 breed­ ers with some 300 sows taking part in advanced registry. Sixteen breeders have entered pigs in a carcass competition to be held al the Yorkshire Field Day, O.A.C., June 14 and 15, and valuable prizes are being offered. Breeding Light Hone* In nine breeding station districts in Canada, saddle and hunter horses, and horses for police, remount, and light delivery purposes are being pro­ duced inconsiderable numbers. This type of horse is in keen demand in Canada and in the United States, and there is little likelihood of any decline in popularity. Horse breed­ ing clubs among Canadian farmers increased from 125 in 1933 to 254 in 1937, while the number of pure bred stallions qualifying for approval in 1937, showed an increase of 21 per cent, over 1936. Quality of Chick* The lowest priced chicks are not always the cheapest in the end. It will depend upon the production and health of the flock from which the eggs are gathered, on the quality of male birds used and on the care taken of the eggs after being gather­ ed and while in the hatchery. The tation fed the breeding flock not only influences the hatchability of the egg, but may influence the vigour of the chick from the fertile egg. Then there is the size of egg which may be a factor. It stands to reason that a chick from a 25-ounce-to-the- dozen egg will be larger and stronger than one from a 23-ounce lot. There is a reason for chicks from the lar­ gest size eggs being more expensive than chicks from the smaller sized eggs. For instance, the eggs cost more in the first place. Thus when buying chicks more than the price should be considered. Seed Cleaning Plant* Seed cleaning plants have been e’-tablished- in many centres and by their use the grain being sown is much improved in quality and in freedom from weeds. These power plants not only make an excellent job of grading the grain so as to give a uniform sample, but by use of the proper'screens and various at­ tachments the weed seeds are prac­ tically all removed and it is possible to fairly well separate the different varieties of grain. The Government assists in the purchase of these ma­ chines when they are used for cus­ tom work. Up to the end of 1937 there were 63 seed cleaning plants in operation and last year over 700,- 000 bushels of grain .were £ cleaned and nearly 4& million pounds of clover and grass seed; ll,794ffarm- ers were served by these plants.* There are many farmers in the vicin­ ity of these plants who might advis­ edly make use of them, but there are yet many centres', where cleaning plants are not available. The ordinary fanning mill did good service in its day, and with the use of the proper screenings and ad­ justing the wind blast a good job can be done with the fanning mill, but we believe a better job is accom­ plished by the larger power unit. Plowmen’* Convention Ontario plowmen assembled in their annual convention at Toronto, expressed gratification over the rec­ ord attendance at the International meet' last October. This was in spite of severe weather conditions which demonstrated the fact that the public could be attracted without offering entertainment features. The site for the 1938 competitions will be northwest of Barrie. The choice was made after representac tions had been made by a three-man delegation from Simcoe County. Con­ sideration was promised the request of a delegation of combined counties of Leeds and Grenville, who asked for the match in 1939. The secretary-manager, J. A. Car­ roll, stated that in addition to the big match there are other setivities Spon­ sored by the Plowmen’s Association. There are 82 branches, 80 of which conducted senior matches in 1^37. A new branch was organized at Ancaster in Wentworth County. The Cavan and South Monaghan Branch was reorganized and enlarged SPRING ISEVERYWHERE atWalker Stores- Limited -INGERSOLL PHONE 56 100 Women’s Smart New PRINTED CREPE DRESSES $2-95 Just in.

Similiar action has been proposed in North Simcoe. Application has been received for the organization of branches in Wellington and Renfrew Counties. Owing to unfavorable local conditions, matches were not held by the Noelville and Parry Sound South East Branches. No feature of the work is more important than the instruction and encouragement given to juniors. Home ploughing competitions were conducted in 12 communities and 11 Junior Ploughing Matches were held. A junior competition was conducted in Lanark County for the first time in 1937. Department judges offici­ ated in all cases. Last year, owing to limited appropriation, the number of demonstrations was (ikely to be restricted. The executive thought this unfortunate as demonstrations were considered perhaps the most effective method of education avail­ able. As a consequence, a commit­ tee was appointed to interview the Deputy Minister of Agriculture, and as a result an additional amount was made available. Preparing for Hatching Seaton Repeated experiments have shown that for egg production, pullets are superior to older birds. The incu­ bation, hatching and rearing of a great many chicks is therefore a yearly necessity. The tendency is towards large hatcheries supplying the smaller poultryman and farmer, and the sale of day-old chicks, sexed chicks and cross-bred chicks has in­ creased rapidly. The individual can now purchase chicks from recognized agencies with assurance. The Department of Ag­ riculture is now grading chicks as follows: Purple label, R. O. P. chicks from blood tested and Government recorded flocks; Red label, R. O. P. Sired Chicks, from blood tested and Government approved flocks; Blue label, Approved chicks, from ap­ proved cockerels and approved band­ ed and blqod tested flocks. For those who wish to incubate their own eggs, the use of.R. O P., or approved males is recommended, and it is advisable to secure males early in order to get a good se-e:t- ion and to acclimatize them to local conditions. Incubators should be looked over and put in first class shape. They should be scrubbed and disinfected prior to incubation and also between hatches. It is always good policy to have spare incubator supplies on hand, as many a hatch has been ruin­ ed by something gone wrong after incubation has commenced and no spare parts on hand. Thermometers should be tested and placed a1 proper jfcvels as a degree or so out may make considerable difference in size and strength of the hatch. Care should be exercised in se­ lecting normal eggs of good shell texture and colour. Breeding pens of the best hens mated to good males should receive the right feed and attention in order tc obtain eggs that will produce strong chicks. Fol­ low the directions supplied by -the manufacturer for operation of the incubator as the direction* have been compiled after considerable experi­ mentation. T.B. Cleanup Campaign Ontario farmers are becoming in­ creasingly conscious of the necessity nf eliminating bovine tuberculosis from their herds. Breeders of pure-bred cattle have for years had their herds tested under the accredit­ ed herd plan and have received compensation for reactors, but un­ der the restricted area plan for T.B. clean-up now well under way, owners of both grade and pure-bred cattle receive compensation for reactors, lu Ontario there are sixteen counties under the restricted area at the pre­ sent time, six counties have complet­ ed the educational campaign and cir­ culation of petitions. A campaign is under way with nine or ten o('-«r counties and several others are hold­ ing meetings and seeking the sana­ tion of the county council to pro­ ceed with the preliminary work lead­ ing to a T.B. free area. The request first comes from the cattle owners and two-thirds of the cattle owners must be in favor of the area test be­ fore the work is undertaken. First Arguer—Ignorant?
