THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, AUG. 25, 1938 Yearly Rates - - Canada, $1.50 - U. S. A., |2.0tt JURY ATTACH NO BLAME IN MRS. DAMMON’S DEATH Erection of “Stop” Sign At Dorchester Recommended— Collision Found Purely Ac­ cidental. Dorchester—Erection of a “jcop sign” on the Dorchester load at the entrance unto the Hamilton Road in this village, was recommended by. a coroner’s jury in London on Fri­ day evening last. The jury found that Mrs. Jenny Dammon of Flint, Mich., died in Victoria Hospital on August 12th, as a result of injuries received in a collision at the inter­ section named above July 3L They found the collision purely accidental, due mostly to weather conditions and attached blame to no one. Mrs. Dammon was riding in a car driven by her husband, Carl Dammon, when it collided with a car > driven by Michael Marshall of Ridgeville. Em- dence showed that she died as a re­ sult of shock and hemorrhages in a punctured lung. She also suffered a broken collar bone and broken ribs. No charges were laid as a result of the crash which was investigated by Provincial Constable Clubbe. Chief Coroner, Dr. R. A. Routledge jOsided at the inquest and 11 wit­ nesses were called. Dr. A. W. Smith of Dorchester and Dr. Percy Banghart of London, told of con­ ducting the autopsy. Dr. W. Doan and his daughter, Dr. Helen Doan, both of Harrietsville, told of attend­ ing Mrs. Dammon. Harry Ague, of 286 Horton Street, London, a cousin of the deceased, established identity. Mr. Marshall told his version of the collision. He explained that it happened about mid-afternoon ar.d that it was^ouring rain at the time. He was driving south on the Dor­ chester road, crossed the bridge over the Thames and wasn’t aware of the fact that there was an interscc’ion until he was within 25 feet of it. The fact that it is an upgrade from the bridge obscured the view, he said. As he saw the intersection, he saw the Dammon car coming from the west about 75 feet from the in­ tersection. He .slammed on his brakes, skidded and came to a stop with his car about four feet on th? Hamilton road. The Dammon car struck the front end of his and “Whizzed” past just as he stopped. eThe Dammon car was going abou* 10 miles an hour and he about 15 he c-stitpated. Mr. Dammon then told his version. He said he vf^tlriving west at about 25 or 30 miles an hour and when about 30 feet from the intersection saw the Marshall car coming. “Just as I got to the cpmer he ran into my rear wheel and turned us around on the pavement and we landed in the ditch,” he said. Both agreed that it was pouring rain and that the impact was not severe. Mr. Dammon said bs wife was sitting in the centre back seat and was apparently injured ■when thrown forward against the front seat. “This is a clear case of a bad in-' tersection it seems to me. The jury may see fit to have proper signs erected at this point,” Crown At­ torney Newton said. The jury, J. Banks, V. J. Dunn, H. P. Boost, C. B. Finney,' C. H. Foster, Percy Ashton, Michael O'Hagan, James Langdon and Fred K^'sey. corner has always been con­ sidered a‘dangerous one by all who know it and it is hoped some suitablesigns will be creeled to warn the travelling public of the danger at thjs pbint. There has been a number of accidents and near accidents at this intersection during the past years and the majority of the residents of «tj.e village witSild be plfeased to learn that some effort has been made to avoid' future accidents. Mr. and Mrs. D. Rossiter See A Bear Here Crampton —Everyone has been talking about seeing “deer" in this district.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 25th. 1938 Tomato Juice For The Miner* In reeding over a report supplied by the trade commissioners in England to the Department of Trade and Commerce regarding the market for Canadian canned goods, it is interesting to note “that the flav­ our of Canadian tomatoes is well liked and the extra juice contained in the tin is very popular with a cer­ tain section of the public in the North of England, especially the miners.'* And again “tomato Juice is very gradually increasing in demand but as yet it is only rarely seen on hotel or restaurant menus in the West of England. In some hotels it is more frequent­ ly found in the bar than in the diping-room." Tomatoes are having a time of their own in Eng­ land. Spain at one time supplied England’^ market with considerable quantities and, when this source was curtailed by the war, the Canadian tomato came to the fore. Now Italian packers are making a de­ termined effort to capture the England trade which, in part, was lost for several seasons to Spain. Al­ though the Italian tomato is considered by some to be superior to the Spanish variety, the Canadian pack has a fine flavour, and local brokers are of the opinion that the increased business that has been done in Canadian tomatoes is not solely dependent upon the difficulties in Europe.. As for tomato products, several of the internation­ ally known packing firms which supply this market from domestic^or United States plants have their to­ mato products put up in Canada. This includes, in ad­ dition to canned tomatoes, tomato juice, catsup, chili sauce, and soup. Exports of Canadian canned tomatoes inc< eased from 28 million pounds for the year extended Aug­ ust 1936 to nearly 30 million for the year ended Aug­ ust 1937, and a further increase is expected this year according to the External Trade Branch of the Do­ minion Bureau of Statistics. The Humanitarian Movement At Evian, in France, on the border of Switzerland, a conference of 23 nations is being held for the pur­ pose of trying to find some way of providing homes for several millions of people who can no longer live in peace and safety, if at all, in their native lands. It is the most humanitarian convention of nations ever held, and it faces one of the most difficult prob­ lems the world has ever faced. Most of the refugees who can no longer live in Germany and Austria, where they were born, are Jews. Italy has lately begun to persecute the Jews, also. But among tfie refugees who must find homes in new lands are hundreds of thousands - of devout -» Christians who are no longer free to worship in their churches. Add to them some hundreds of thousands who cannot bear to face what amounts to slavery for themselves and particularly for their children, and we have literally millions of people seeking relief from the tyranny of dictators. - Needless to say, the nations represented at the Evian Refugee Congress are all countries which are founded upon and profess the democratic ideal. The chairman is Myron C. Taylor, head of the U. S. Steel Corporation. The purpose is to explore the possibilities of moving a vast number of persons into new and un­ familiar surroundings and their prospects of survival in any place to which they might be moved. Most of the nations represented are in North and South America. Some of them have announced that they will welcome Jews as immigrants. Others are ' hesitant about adding that particular alien element to their population. The prospects for^ppnediate relief of these persecu­ ted peoples are not bright, but if out of the Evian con­ ference some international plan is evolved whereby * the way will be opened for their gradual resettlement in nations which need new population to develop their resources, a great humanitarian work will have been * begun. Barite There are minerals fount! in Canada with which most of us are unfamiliar; some of them have little commercial value as yet but who knows when or how soon some scientist will find a use for them. Barite or Barytes is one such mineral. The Depart­ ment of Mines at Ottaw’a reports that some interest was taken recently in the possibility of shipping bar­ ite to Trinidad for oil drilling. Finely ground bar­ ite mixed with a clay and a suitable suspending med­ ium is effectively employed in the heavy liquids used as well-seals in drilling for petroleum. A well-seal is a device or trap to prevent a backward flow of gas or oil. Barite is a white mineral occurring frequently in granular or crystalline shape. It is usually found in veins, quite commonly in lead ore mines. Near Spill- machen in British Columbia barite replaces limestone in thickness of from 10 to 60 feet and the possibility of producing commercial barite as a by-product from the milling of lead ore has been suggested. So far most of -the barite comes from deposits irt Nova Sco­ tia, Quebec and Ontario. This mineral is a common ingredient of paints. Last, year the paints, pigments and varnish industry of Canada used twp»tand a half million pounds of it. It« is also employed” in the manufacture of artificial marble, explosives, printer's ink, sealing wax, soap, glazes, linoleum and artificial ivory. The textile ' industry uses it for dressing cloth and leather while . the paper manufacturer finds it gives a smooth coat to “art” paper. According to the Mining Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics the last commercial shipments from Canadian/dppoeits were made in 1933 in which year 20 tons were produced. In 1936 three million tons were imported; most of it came from Germany. Bicycles Have Rights As recognized vehicles, bicycles have their rights and privileges; the motorist who would have themdriven off the roads is running up against vested rightswhich were accorded to the bicyclist long before the motor came into common use. But that does notimply that the bicyclist should insist too strongly on his rights. If, while sticking up for them, he runsfoul of a car, the results are quite as serious as ifthey were entirely in the wrong. Consideration and courtesy must be mutual. The Reason Is Plain In a letter to Toronto Globe and Mail one who signs, “Builder since 1881“ says: “Eighty thousand young couples married so far this year and not one per cent will buy a home and 70 per cent, will buy a motor car and live in apart­ ments.” We are not vouching for the correctness of the fig­ ures; but the fact remains that while many are buy­ ing automobiles and living in apartments very few are buying homes. And the explanation is in one word—Taxes. And the explanation for so many living in apart­ ments and not in even rented houses lies in the same word—Taxes. With taxes on real estate what they are there is Dot much inducement to build homes. —(Cornwall Standard Freeholder.) THE DOCTO R Telia The Story by W. E. AVGHINBAUGH, M.D. MONGOLIAN IDIOTS Mongolian idiots, or children born of normal white parents, yet resembling Mongolians in features and invariably mentally deficient, were first recognized in 1843 in France, and since that time medical literature has been more or less replete with references to them. At one time it was thought that Jews and Negroes were immune from this condition and that it was con-' fined exclusively to the Causcasian race. Up to the present writing there are known to be many European Jews who have become parents of these unfortunate children and in America there are thirty-two reco­ gnized Negro Mongolian idiots. Out of 2,090 child­ ren born in a large hospital, 177 were Mongolian idiots and of these 24 were children of Jews, a very heavy percentage indeed. A recent canvass of the popula­ tion of the United States reveals the fact that Mon- golianism is twice as common among white children as those of Negroes. TRAGEDY PREVENTED During the past year I have had a four hundred word night telegram from an expectant mother in a Western city whose husband had a relative give birth to one of these unfortunates, and who has advised his •wife that if she has a “Chinese baby” he would kill her and the laundry-man living beneath their apart­ ment. She asked me what to do, and I wrote her hus­ band that the possibilities of such a child being born to him is 0.001 G',< of our 120,000,000 population, for that is the ratio in the United States. I also in­ formed this man that should such a thing happen that in all probability he would be the one responsible, inasmuch as a relative of his had previously given birth to such a child. In this case I believe I have, averted a possible tragedy for the husband has writ­ ten and thanked me for my information and accepted my statement. As a rule, these children arc Harm­ less, and seldom live to be more than twenty years of age, Wut they should be placed in institutions be­ cause they are bound to disrupt family affairs sooner or later, and need the care that properly, instructed persons alone can give them. > ------- FIFTY-NINE YEARS AGO From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Wednesday, August 27th, 1879 Although the trade and business of Ingersoll at the present time may not be just what we should like to see it yet, we are not of those who try to decry the town and make out that its trade and business is worse-than it really is. - . , Improvements have been made to the following rooms at the Central School Building: No. 1, M.

TODAY and TOMORROW by Frank Barker Stockbridge BICYCLES . . . . peril There are more bicycles in use in the United States today than ever before. That is the report of the Iowa Director of Motor Vehicles; and he is talking about ordinary foot-propelled “bikes”, not motor­ cycles. Trade statistics bear out his assertion, and every motorist must have noticed the increased number of bicycle riders who add to the perils of motoring on the high- ways. I remember when bicycles were a rare novelty. I rode one of the old-style higb-wheel bikes in my boyhood. The present type of bi­ cycles, with pneumatic tires, did not come into use until I was through high school. There were no automo­ biles in those days, but cyclists scared horses and farmers used to set their dogs on us. Around the cities and suburbs special “cycle paths” used to be built to keep the wheelmen off both sidewalks and the main thoroughfares. If bicycles continue to multiply it would seem like good sense to go back to the old practice of putting a narrow strip exclusively for cy­ clists* use along each new road built. DUTCH .... mitnotner Thb, government of the Kingdom of Holland is trying to get the word “Dutch” out of the English langu­ age. It sounds too much like “Deutsch,” which means “German.** Indeed, it was first applied to the people of the Low Countries when the line between them and the low­ er German Rineland was not sharp­ ly drawn. The proper nama^for Holland now is “The Netherlands,” and the offic­ ial name of the little cojgny in South America which used to be called “Dutch Guiana” has been changed to "Surinam.” There arc no more “Dutch West Indies.’” The new name for those islands in the lower Carib­ bean is “Curaco.” The great Neth­ erlands colonial islands of Borneo, Sumatra, Java, Bali and numerous smaller ones, which we used to cal! the Dutch East Indies, are now the Netherlands Indies. Americans will doubtless continue to refer to the early “Dutch” settlers of Ngw York, New Jersey, and to confuse them with the “Pennsylvania Dutch” who are not of Netherlands stock but pure German. But if you address a letter to any of the Netherlands colonies under its old name’, your postmaster will “get in Dutch” if he forwards it. • • • FARMING .... progre»» From all I read and hear about new methods and processes in farm­ ing, it rfeems as if agriculture, or many phases of it, were entering up­ on revolutionary developments. The latest is the successful attempt of a northern New York farmer to get his tomatoes ripe before the nor- ’ mal crop flooded the market and forced prices dow-n. ‘ He put in a hot-water heater and carried pipes underground to warm the tomato roots. The result was larger plants with more fruit, ready to pick ten days before his neighbor’s crops. In California and elsewhere com­ mercial production of many kinds of vegetables is being carried ofi suc­ cessfully without any soil, at all. The plants, supported by wire netting or other means, send their roots down into tanks of warm, chemically- treated water. Production is report­ ed as very high, the labor of culti­ vating and weeding is entirely elim­ inated, and picking and harvesting becomes a simple operation. That’s progress. TO-MORROW . . . prophets It is an interesting occupation to predict what the world will be like in the future, and if you set your dates far enough ahead you won’t be around, or your readers either, to be laughed at when your predictions turn out wrong. The best that an honest prophet can do is not to be too specific as to when things are going to happen, nor go into too many details as to just what they will be like when they do come off, or by what means. He can only point to the trends apparent in his own time. I have no hesitation in .predicting that in the course of time the econ­ omic -waste of war will have be­ come so apparent to the people of the world that they will realize how silly it is to set ,up barriers between nations. That will be a long time from now; but it will be hastened by the in­ creasing ease of communications be­ tween peoples of aH parts of the world. It will not be politicians ordictators who will make this world over. It will be the scientists and technologists with new discoveries and inventions. • • • EDUCATIONAL practical One of the most practical educa­ tional experiments I have heard of has lately been made at Netcong, New Jersey, where twenty-five child­ ren from New York City Schools have been spending the summer va­ cation in a “work camp.” They are learning how the work of the world is done by doing it themselves. Boys and girls alike dress in over­ alls and not only do a variety of farm chores but have undertaken to re­ pair and put in modern condition an abondoned farmhouse more than 106 years old. They have taken to that task with enthusiasm, and are doing a creditable job as carpen­ ters, stone-masons, plasterers, paint­ ers, plumbers and electricians. The only education of real value that the young can get is in doing things for themselves. If they pass school age without knowing anything about the real work of the world their education has only just begun; HOUSE and HOME -- by Mnry E. Dague — Author of Sister Mary’s Kitchen its original uses choose patterns such as hobnail, saw-tooth, swirl or thumb­ print. An ensemble in hobnail con­ sisting of covered sugar bowl, cov­ ered butter dish, open salt, spoon holder and tray is attractive in a guest room. Use the sugar bow! for individual powder puffs, the butter dish for powder, the spoon holder for used puffs, the tray for brush and comb and the salt for an ash tray. In clear glass, and in dark blue this pattern lends itself to al­ most any color scheme. Covered jam jars, sugar bowls and compotes make stunning candy jars and often add some color on the living room table where it’s needed most. Mosquito bites can be relieved from itching by the simple remedy of rubbing the bite with wet soap when other means are not at hand. Sponging with aromatic spirits of ammonia is soothing, too. And don’t forget the efficacy of baking soda in warm water. Bites, sunburn, swollen and aching feet and even bee stings are alleviated if bathed with a soda solution. I The other day a friend complained to me that her house lacked charm and interest. That her husband insist­ ed on heavy substantial furniture so cf course she couldn’t use antiques and she felt her situation was hope­ less. Her house is really a verylovely home, handsomely furnished I with exclusive furnishings and always immaculate. But it did lack a cer­ tain hominess. However this friend has a strong feeling for old things and for years has collected early American pressed glass which she kept stored away behind the paneled cupboards of the dining room. We brought out some of this lovely old glass and scattered it through the house with the result that she achieved the atmosphere she wanted. Some old open salts made clever ash trays for the dining table. Footed salts were used for cigarettes. Celery holders are stunning used in pairs on the living room mantel. Covered but­ ter dishes in many patterns are de­ lightful to use for powder boxes on a dressing table. When you take pressed glass out of the dining room and away from Holland Wheat Market With no currency restrictions, no high import duty, and a compara­ tively low milling percentage for the home grown product, the Netherlands is one of the few’ remaining pur­ chasing markets for foreign wheat.

PEACEFUL PROGRESS It is pleasant to divert our atten­ tion from Europe and Asia, both of which occupy so much space in the headlines just now, and where in­ ternational boundaries are seething wiht suspicion, to our own country where a great contrast is presented. A contrast that must make peace- loving and war-weary people envious. A contrast too that ought to make us more and more thankful that our lines have been east in a land of peace and opportunity. It indi­ cates that there is such a thing as the ’'North American Spirit,” a spirit which it is hoped, may smother the smouldering embers of “Seventy- Six.” Because of the trustfulness on each side of the line it is no longer necessary to have forts between Canada and the United States, so old Fort Henry at Kingston has oeen neglected and allowed to fall into disrepair. As it is an interesting relic of the past, containing some exceptionally fine masonry work that has been studied by constructional engineers in Europe and America, it was felt that it was a pity to have it demolished. So it recently has been restored to serve as a military museum. In it are preserved all sorts of relics of warfare, such as models of ships, weapons of every description from very early times to those of modern make, equipment from war­ ships that took part in naval en­ gagements during the war of 1812, soldiers’ uniforms, and many other curios connected with each early days of our country. There are two cisterns designed to hold large quantities of water, to supply plenty in case of a long siege. One cistern has a capacity of fifty 'thousand gallons; the other, a spring well, was excavated through solid rock. Some idea of the amount of labour required is shown in the Kingston Whig-Standard, which tells us that although the laborers received only twenty cents a day, the cost of the well was two hundred and eighty pounds, sterling. The living quarters of the three hundred and fifty soldiers who man­ ned the garrison, show many fine pieces of antique furniture, for everything possible was done to make it comfortable. Although this fort is a military museum, it in no way attempts to ex­ alt war, for war cannot be exjked. But it gives a very good idea of what was necessary to cope with prevail­ ing conditions in those days, and by realizing what our pioneer ancestors had to cope with, wc can more easily appreciate what their efforts have procured for us—a boundary line extending for three thousand miles without any fortifications. Not only are fortifications lacking, but means of communications are being extended, for in the same vic­ inity a new international bridge has just been opened to allow even freer intercourse between the people of the two countries. This new bridge, which spans the St. Lawrence River, near Gananoque, has been built by a privately-owned company,, and must be a thing of beauty with its tall graceful piers resting on solid rock. The spans curve in their course from island to island, so that it is mare like an ele­ vated roadway than a bridge, with views over some of the finest scenery in North America. Personally, We regret the discard- Salvation Army HeldPicnic At ParkProgram of Sport* and Race* Ea. joyed By Large Gathering. Members of the Sunday School classes of the Ingersoll Salvation Army Corps, held their annual picnic on Wednesday afternoon, August 17th, at Memorial Park. Although rain interferred somewhat with the events of the program, an enjoyable time was spent by the large number in attendance. A snappy game of softball was enjoyed during the af­ ternoon and this was followed by the races and contests. The prize win­ ners were: Boys 6 to 8 years, run­ ning, Raymond Downing; wheelbar­ row race, 10-14 years, Clifford Camm end Charles Downing; second, Ron­ ald Groom and Ronald McLelland; girls' running race, 4 to 8 years, Grace Groom, Shirley Pittock; 10- 14 years, three-legged race, Mar­ guerite Downing and Pearl White; second, Marion Rix and Eva Down­ ing; young ladies’ Bible class race, Marjorie Langdown, Christelle Mc­ Lelland; running contest, Marion Rix; young women’s clothespin race, Jean Pittock, Mrs. E. Rowland; married ladies' tightrope walking, Mrs. F. Camm; married ladies’ run­ ning race, Mrs. C. Foster, Mrs. P. Groom. At the close of the program of races, the members all sat down to a beautifully set table arranged by the teachers and ladies of the corps. The children were treated to ice­ cream cones and watermelon, Xvhich they thoroughly enjoyed. LAID TO REST MRS. ALFRED CAFFYN The funeral of Mrs. Alfred Caffyn was held from the family residence, Lot 17, Con. 2, West Oxford, on Thursday afternoon to tha Harris street cemetery. Service was con­ ducted at the house at two o’clock, by Rev. Frank C. McMulkin and during the service, Miss Effa Cuth­ bert sang a solo, “Alone.” There was a large attendance of friends at the service and many floral tributes were indicative of the esteem In which the late Mrs. Caffyn was held. The pall bearers were David Riddle, George Currie, Russell Cur­ rie, Frank Pettit, Harry Ruckle, and Verne Meek, and the flower beaiers were Elmer Heeney, B. G. Jenvey, Robert Harris and Beverley Blanchcr. Car Leaves Highway Crashes Into Barn Mrs. W. Brodel, Mrs. Roy Taylor and the latter’s daughter, Florence, were taken to Alexandra Hospital, Ingersoll, last Wednesday, none ser­ iously injured, as the result of their car, driven by Mrs. Brodel, leaving No. 2 highway, just west of Beach- ville and crashing into a barn on the north side of the road. The car was badly wrecked. sume that the affliction costs on. an average of a dollar a year, each, for medical trd&tment, loss of time and impaired efficiency. That amount from each person would form a sub­ stantial trust fund from which prizes might be offered to those who could turn in the greatest quantity of Rag­ weed. An army-of .children sat busy would soon accomplish satisfactory results. t . . Hay Fever imposes another respon­ sibility on its victims which they arc apt to forget.

Photographer—“I will make a speaking likeness of this picture of your late wife.” Mr. Hcnpeck — “Just a likeness, please.” Reseeding LawnsIn The Early FallThe weather in August and Sep- terafber is favorable for the growth of turf from seed. The temperature during the day stimulates the germ­ ination of seed and the growth of young grass seedlings and yet is not so hot that these tender plants be­ come scorched or dried out. The soil is also warm at this season so that the seed germinates rapidly, the young plants often appearing through the ground in four or five days after seeding. Generally speaking, states A. M. Ross, Division of Forage Plants, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, the best results are obtained by us­ ing seed which has been purchased as pure species and mixed by the purchaser, as in this way it is pos­ sible to use only the seed of grasses suitable for lawn purposes. The most widely adapted lawn grass mixture is composed of four pounds Kentucky blue grass and one pound colonial bent, this quantity being sufficient to sow one thousand square feet of lawn. As it is impossible for the average person to tell the quality of grass seed by general appearances, the purchaser should stipulate Grade No 1 quality when buying the In­ gredients of this mixture to ensure their purity and viability. The area to be sown should be composed of good loam soil, free from weeds, and should be level. The seed bed is prepared by culti- \ating to a depth of 5 or 6 inches and then breaking flown the top inch or so of the soil into the fine state of tilth by alternate rolling and raking. Hard lumps or stones should be re­ moved from the surface. The seed should be divided into two equal portions, the first half being used to sow the whole area and the remaining half to go over it al! again, but this time proceeding at right angles to the direction taken when sowing the first time. Covering may be done by lightly raking the seed into the earth, but better still by covering it very lightly with screened, weed-freed soil. Ten pails of soil is sufficient to cover one thousand square feet of seeded aic-a. The area should then be roll­ ed with a light roller and watered with a very fine spray. To obtain the best results the seeded location should be kept moist until the young seedlings have become established, but care should be taken to prevent flooding, washing or puddling of the soil. If the young grass attains the height of two inches before winter it is advisable to cut it back with a good sharp lawn mower. This cutting should only sever the tops of the leaves and the cuttings should be caught in a grass catcher and re­ moved from the lawn. As a general rule it is not wise to cover the grass with brush, straw or any other covering for winter pro­ tection. These are apt to 'hold the ice in the spring by shading it from the warm sunshine and in this way to damage the turf.

There are, however, so many' gaps and imperfections in the statistical information available, slates the Imperial Economic Coni- i niittee, that is is impossible to es- | timate with any accuracy' the extent of cultivation and of production! in every producing country and still less, of course, in the world as a whole. In some countries no official estimate is made of the number of trees or area under apples, or of yields: cider apples are seldom dis­ tinguished from dessert or cooking apples, and sometimes apples are not even distinguished from pears. Although computations of world production must be of doubt­ ful validity and of limited signifi­ cance, a rough estimate would sug­ gest that the area devoted to apple growing probably exceeds 7,000,000 acres, that the trees thereon number about 450,000,000, and that the average annual production of apples ranges from 500,000,000 to 600,000,- 000 bushels. Production in Empire countries probably accounts for less than 10 per cent of the total output. Of the approximate world total of 450,000,000 trees, some 100,000,000 are in the United States, 77,000,000 in Germany, 68,000,000 in France, nnd from 50,000,000 to 60,000,000 in the Soviet Union. In Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, Cz.cchol- vakia, and Italy, the estimated totals range between 10,000,000 and 15,- 000,000, while in both Poland and Roumania, the number is about 10,- 000,000.

TRUCKS SALES and SERVICE Thames Street PHONE 122 /Ingersoll LIGHTNING FACTSAND WHAT TO DO INA THUNDERSTORM We often refer to a person being as quick as a streak of “greased lightning”—well, if they are, they are fast indeed, for observations over three years by American scientists have proved that lightning flash trav­ els at 10,000 miles a second. The observations were taken at the world's highest building, the Em­ pire State Building in the heart of New York, an edifice which is struck more often than any other known place on earth. A film camera on top of another skyscraper, half u mile away, was used for the tests. It recorded every flash over the three years. The energy behind an .average flash of lightning is terrific. Dr. Steinmetz, who specializes in the study of electricity and lightning, compared it to the driving power of a 200-ton train hurtling along at 50 miles an hour. In laboratories it is fairly easy now to obtain a pow’er equal to one million volts. On one occasion engineers were successful in obtaining a flash of 5000,000 volts by short-circuiting the entire power of four dynamos simultaneously. Yet this is a mere nothing compared with the voltage of lightning. A camera invented by Dr. Vernon for photographing lightning has brought some wonderful results from South Africa, where thunderstorms are far more frequent than in tem­ perate latitudes. It is* able to de­ tect time intervals in a lightning flash smaller than a millionth of a second. The sensitive plates used by such cameras indicate 100,000,000 volts, berne on a current equal to 100.000 amperes, equal to about a thousand ' billion horse-power. The colossal 1 energy expended can easily be rea- ] lized when it is remembered that | only half an ampere and 2Q0 volts ’ are needed to light an ordinary lamp, and that all the machines in the ' uorld, it is estimated, do not con­ sume a thousand billion horse-power. One flash in Illinois, in the United States, opened up a fissure in the ground 40 feet long and a foot wide Tests made with a weighted line, 150 feet long, failed to find the bottom. Another in southern England fused completely and instantaneously two thick wire nails on tep of a post, and to do this by man’s device would have meant the employment of 5,000 horse-power over a second of time. The flash, however, did it in ten millionths of a second. A fla.-h of lightning occurs to re- ’ store equilibrium between cloud and c oud, or cloud and earth, when one contains more electricity than the other. The gap is bridged by the flash, which has an average length of from one to three miles. Al­ though to the eye a lightning flash firm cloud to earth seems to be a _line, in reality it consists of . a number of steps. The camera in­ vented by Dr. Boys shows that the first downward stroke of a lightning flash proceeds in a number of lumin­ ous steps, each about 50 yards long, with fairly regular pauses tn between. When the flash reaches *ho | ground there if an upward retur? I stroke along the conducting’channel, I from whch branches spread outwards land downwards,-The steppe 1 lender, | the first downward stroke, has to | adopts its meandering.path because of I the resistance it meets with from the air in blazing the trail. # High buildings, such as New York skyscrapers and the Eiffel Tower, which has been struck many times, are protected by their conductors. It is said that George III-not only ornamented his own private lightning conductors with canqftn balls but also tried to convince others, including Sir John Pringle, a famous physician cf that period, that he was right. At the time the question of knobs or points for conductors was rather an acute one. Pringle’s reply was both emphatic and diplomatic: "Sire, I cannot reverse the laws and oper­ ations of Nature.-” Lightning plays- some unusual freaks at times as when a flash caus­ ed a man’s watch to stop, the explan­ ation being that the flash produced a sudden change in temperature, this broke the highly-tempered steel of the main spring. Then a man at Ramsgate stepped on to a wire mat and was struck by lightning. Specta­ tors said that a “ball of fire” flashed in front of his eyes. He vjas un­ hurt, but his celluloid collar stud had melted, and ’ a hole was burned through his shirt and vest. Two boys were sleeping in an iron bedstead in a country, cottage. Light­ ning came down the chimney, struck the bed, burned the clothes, but miss­ ed the boys, then leaped across a table where others of the family were sitting, and ended its career in the larder, burning a ham to acinder^J As'the thunderstorm season is up­ on us, words of advice given i» the HOUSEHOLDLOANS •ci of Domio ion Psrluraent • Loins $50 to $500 •No credit enquiries of friendsor relatives • Immediate service on allapplications • 12 months to repay •To apply: phone or visit office cent ral finance Flfih Root—Bonk of Toronto Building 267 Dundoi Straat Phonai Matcalf 1268—LONDOK Interlude CFKB A£nTd»Ur; (3) Ed»«rA.GuevC WJR (CBS) 10:30 p.m. Wednen-d»r«; (J) Pail aad Guest with muMc, “Code for Protection against Light­ ning” by the U, S.

If there is a choice of shelter, choose in this order: Large metal or metal-frame buildings; dwellings or other buldings protected against lightning; large unprotected build­ ings; small unprotected buildings. If you are compelled to keep outside, keep away from small sheds and shel­ ters if in exposed location; from is­ olated trees, from wire fences; and from hilltops, and wide open space-. Seek shelter in a cave or depress­ ion in the ground, the foot of a steep overhanging cliff, in dense woods, or n grove of trees (preferably by a smooth bark tree.)

This last-minute victory won for Aylmer the first round of the intermediate ‘*B’’ series in two straight games as Aylmer had defeat­ ed Ingersoll the previous Saturday in a 14-inning contest here. The Ingersoll team was late in starting, trailing on the small end of a 2-0 score until the eighth inning. But a strong ninth-inning rally of two hits coupled with an error net­ ted them two runs.

As far as the Twist Drillers were concerned it was just too much for Jordan. The speed-ball artist of Pat­ erson’s, fanned 14 men during the game and starting by whiffing the first four to face him. All the scoring was confined to the fourth and seventh innings with Paterson’s gett­ ing 4 in the fourth and 2 in trie seventh while Twist Drill got one run in each frame. The losers scored their two rims on a home-run by Russ Payne anil Rine's single, a walk, a stolen base and a fly. Monday night’s game was one of largest attended yet this year and anyone who has not seen a game is missing a real treat. After the con­ test on Monday night it was decided to play all the remaining games at the Princess, Elizabeth diamond.

Bantams Ousted From Play-Offs The Ki-Y Bantams, Ingersoll’s last representatives in the Intercounty Baseball League, bowed out of the play-off picture last Friday after­ noon when they lost to-the McMahon Cougars of Lon'don, 17-3. The local kids lost their first game in London, tied the second here last Wednesday and then evened up the series on Thursday before being eliminated Friday. The club had only had one week's practice before they entered the playdowns and for the fight and spirit they showed in their games they deserve the praise and support of Ingersoll citizens. The Bantams lost the game on er­ rors, mak>hg 14 misplays, four of these being in the outfield. The Londoners secured 11 hits off the offerings of Mobre and Cade, while Ingersoll got seven from the hurling of Evans and Dempsey. It is expected that now the locals are eliminated, several exhibition games will be arranged.

Prices for good early lainos have been very satisfactory until about August 1st when many farmers, no doubt tempted by prevailing prices during the last week in July, began to market lambs that should have been held on pastures for at least a month, and in many cases two months. An oversupply of poor lambs resulted in a serious drop on all lamb markets, and while the situ­ ation has partly corrected itsrlf, the market is still sensitive to weakness if producers continue to market •in­ desirable lambs. % As a rule lambs from the more common domestic breeds of .sheep do not finish for market at farm weights under 90 pounds to 100 pounds (80 to 90 lb. at the market.) Before sell­ ing lambs it is always wise to use the scales. This is particularly im­ portant at the present time so that the sale of underweight lambs may be avoided. Good early lambs are in demand at all stockyard centres, packing plants and city markets. Lamb meat is an especial favorite in the home, at tourist centres, and in hotels and restaurants. When it is said that lamb is a popular meat, this means good to choice Iamb from well finish­ ed carcasses. Light, unfinished lambs do not produce the kind of meat that is relished by tourists or by the Canadian people. Poor lambs are not good sellers and are unsatis­ factory to all sections of the trade, including the consumer. This year pastures nre excellent all over Can­ ada and there is no farm animal that puts on cheaper gains than the grow­ ing lamb on good grass. All fanners can increaser the value of their lambs by a closer check-up in weights and marketing at the right time. the yield per acre will generally range from average to slightly above average in practically all counties. Harvesting is about a week earlier than usual. Damage was caused by the most severe outbreak of army worm in the last fifty years, but for the province as a whole the loss would probably not exceed 2%. In­ dividual fields, however, suffersd 10% to 15% injury and in a few cases much greater. Severe rain­ storms resulted in considerable lodg­ ing in some parts, making cutting difficult, but the loss is not serious, while in Eastern Ontario, grasshop­ pers caused rather severe damage:n several localized areas. Rust is affecting the grain crop in Ea-tern Ontario, but the yield is expected to le a good average and considerably above the poor yields of 1937 Precipitation was sufficient for de- \ eloping crops during July through- cut most of the province. Heavy lains fell in early August, lodging standing crops over large areas. Tho rainfall has been beneficial for the growth of late crops and prospects for these crops, which include com, late potatoes, buckwheat, sugar beets and turnips, are considered quite fav­ orable. Pastures are also showing improvement in all sections, and as a result livestock are in good condi­ tion and milk flow is being well maintained. Prices of farm products have de­ clined recently and are now gener­ ally below the level of a year ago. In the case of grain crops the de­ crease from last August is very con­ siderable and is due to larger world crops, In Ontario farm income is largely determined by the prices-of secondary commodities such as cattle, hogs, butter, eggs, etc., all of which are down in price.

A hearty welcome wasextended to all by members of thechapter. The next regular meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Revell. devotional exercises, a few grains are now harvested except late dates, while in Central Ontario about 75% of the grain is cut and in East­ ern Ontario about 50%. In North­ ern Ontario the harvest is well under way Stock threshing proceeded rap­ idly up to August 1st, but was in­ terrupted by frequent and heavy rains during the first two weeks of August. The average yield of fall wheat for the entire province is now estim­ ated at 27 bushels per acre, as com­ pared with 26 bushels in 1937, and a preceding 15-ye,ar average of 25.1 bushels. The harvested acreage of 742,062 acres is the highest since ’ 1927, and compares with 718,813 acres last year. Total production will amount to approximately 20,- 036,000 bushels, which is the largest crop since 1926. In Eastern, Wes­ tern and Central Ontario, the yield per acre was reduced and the quality considerably lowered by leaf and stem rust. In each of these three sections the yield 'was about three bushels per acre less than in 1937, but in Southern Ontario, which com­ prises the two rows of counties bor­ dering Lake Erie and where half the acreage is located, the yield was al­ most five bushels higher than a yearago and this more than Offset the de­ cline in othbr sections. Heat and lust reduced the crop most severely in the counties of Grey, Bruce, Huron, Wellington and Perth.Spring grains have matured eagfy this season and reports indicate that WARWICK R.

Turner, thatyou think your sister can't be killed? If we wouldn't stop at tor­turing, do you think we’d stop atkilling her?” Dave’s face was parchment-col­ored now, partly from the pain which he could endure, but mostlyfrom what Sayres had just told him. He knew now that Sayres was notbluffing and that he could and wouldkill Mary and Winters after he had tortured him to death.“I'll sign," Dave said weakly. this next job. you’ll find the girlhere.

Chinch slunk out.and Sayres turned to Lew, “Takehim out in the back room and putthose leg irons on him." Dave was prodded into a one-room addition at the rear of the' | shack which served as a storeroomof sorts. He was handcuffed, seatedon the floor facing the log wall and his feet were manacled with a log­ging chain to the drop log of the addition. When they were finished,Sayres carpe in to look over the joband after grunting his approval left with the other two. Lew slammedthe door shut after him, but itswung open a couple of inches sothat Dave could see them moving infront of the crack occasionally, and a dim shaft of light filtered into theroom.“Get something to eat,” Sayresordered.Dave could hear the rattle of a frypan. His hand throbbed achinglywith the pumping of his heart andhis fingers were stiff and numb. Lying on his back and staring at theceiling he tried to read some senseinto all that had happened to him.They were trying to get the ranch.\\ hy? Lew’s voice broke into his reverie."When’ll the gal be here?” "Not very long now. We Rot toget him out of the way,” Sayressaid. Dave fought down a cold wave ofterror and fear. A girl!

Of worldwide importance and carrying great educational values, the 7th World Poultry Congress and Exposition will be held at Cleve­ land, Ohio, from July 28 to August 7, 1939. It will be the first appear­ ance of this triennial congress in the United States but not on the North American continent, the 3rd World Congress having been held in Ottawa in 1927. The 7th World Poultry Congress, like its forerunners, covers every phase of the poultry and allied in­ dustries. It is expected that more than 60 nations will officially parti­ cipate. The informative and edu­ cational possibilities which the Con­ gress will provide are attracting the interest of everyone concerned in the poultry industry, particularly in Canada and the United States, and has brought about a demand for news concerning the congress. Active plans to make the 7th World Poultry Congress a great success have been in operation for some time, and Canada’s interests are being well promoted by the Can­ adian Congress Committee. * hmm*6 CW*' Extra values at no ex­tra cost . . . that is your positive guarantee when you buy Firestone Tire*.

On the findings of the technical committee, the British Minister of Agriculture has now set up a Poultry Commission for Great Brit­ ain with powers to control the distri­ bution of breeding stock, hatching eggs and day-old chicks, wilh the lesponsibility for conducting stock improvement schemes on voluntary lines, assisted by premiums from the Exchequer in diminishing scale. In addition, the establishment of a re­ search station has been undertaken for the investigation of major dis­ eases and problems connected with the industry. Some years ago the Canadian Rec­ ord of Performance policy won in­ ternational recognition for its merits as a medium for the development of general efficiency in farm flocks; now, as an additional mark of ap­ proval the British Minister of Agri­ culture has incorporated practically the whole Canadian scheme into the British poultry policy. The British Minister stated in the British Par­ liament that “the British Govern­ ment was of the opinion that a factor contributing to the present difficul­ ties of the poultry industry was the lack of organization in the marketing of home-produced eggs and poultry.” The Canadian example was readily available, with the result that the marketing scheme is substantially a replica of the methods followed in Canada.

When wired in an upright position It iseasier to keep the rank growthpruned out, thus keeping the berrypatch from becoming so overgrownand tangled as to make it almostimpossible to penetrate it to pickthe berries. The sun. also has abetter opportunity to reach the ber­ries on bushes which are wired up.The Garden-Graph shows a sim­ple method of anchoring berrybushes. Stretch a single wire alongthe row of berry .bushes. Then cutas many l«-inch lengths of wire asthere are bushes. Make an eyeletto loop one end of the short wireover the line for the row. Bendthis wire slfghtly and offset thefree end. When it is time to tieup the bushes to keep them erectand protect them from wind lash­ing.! simply slide one of the shorthanging wires up to each .plant, andloop the offset end over the linewire.The scheme Is simple, and oncethe short wires are attached to theline wire, they are ready for useyear after year.
