Ingersoll’s population was quadrup­ led when a crowd estimated at 20,000 joined in an affectionate welcome to King George and Queen Elizabeth here yesterday morning. Every vantage point in the C. N. R. yards was taken and along the C. N. R. right-of-way for at least a mile east of the station, old and young gathered to sec Their Majesties. -As the beautiful blue and silver train carrying the Royal Party drew to a stop, the King and Queen appeared on the platform of the rear coach. Rt. Hon. W. L. Macken­ zie King alighted from a coach ahead, and rushed to meet Mayor A. H. Edmonds and Mrs. Edmonds, and introduced them to Their Majesties, » as the King and Queen stepped fruip ** the train on to the lovely Royal red carpet that led to the presentation platform. Members of the Royal Can­ adian Mounted Police and detectives from Scotland Yard were in close attendance. With the King was his aide, Pears Legh and attending Her Majesty was Lady Catherine Seymour.

He was tall and slim, hfs face bronzed by the warn sun of his Canadian trip and he wore the uniform of an Admiral of the Fleet. The Queen was far more beautiful than words or pictures can describe. Her Majesty wore a silver grey en­ semble, with touches of lavender, grey picture hat with mauve and lilac trim, grey kid shoes and white three, quarter length gloves. The resurgent tide of cheering that prevailed, as the Royal train came into view, immediately ceased and there was an almost reverent silence as the thousands were held with awe by the striking personality and graciousness of the Royal couple. The Mayor presented the address . of welcome to His Majesty and Mrs. Edmonds presented the gorgeous bouquej^f Kokomon carnations, lily- of-the-vtniey and cattleya orch’ds. The stems of the flowers were indiv­ idually wrapped in satin and were held together with white taffeta ribbon. Hon.

AS INGERSOLL GREETED THEIR MAJESTIES Chief Callander Has Sferved Guard For Royalty Before Ingersoll’s Chief Constable, Alex. Callander, a member of the commit­ tee in charge of the arrangement; for the Royal visit, has previously served as a guard for Royalty. In fact he has acted in that capacity for all members of the Royal family, including our present King. Chief Callander as a member of the Glas­ gow City Police Department, in Scot­ land, was a guard when the present King visited Glasgow as DUke of York, just previous to his marriage. He was also a guard for Their Majes­ ties as Duke and Duchess of York, when they visited Glasgow to per­ form Municipal Ceremonies shortly after their marriage. The Chief, as a young lad, was present in London for the Coronation of King Edward VH, and he has served as a guard for King Edwaid VII, King George V, The Duke of Windsor,when “Prince of Wales, Duke of Kent, Duke of Gloucester, and Lady Lascelles. t Chief Callander has been in, Canada' since 1930 and was appointed to the local police force in 1935. • • • Fenian Raid Veteran at Reception Ingersoll's only living veteran of the Fenian Raid, Neil McFee, aged 92, was among the few seated in the preferred enclosure, near the Royal platform. Mr. McFee was born at Inverness, Scotland, the home of Queen Elizabeth, and came to Inger­ soll with his parents*when but two years of age. During nearly half a century of his residence in Inger­ soll, he was employed as a butcher at the plant of the Ingersoll Packing Company Limited. When that plant was closed some twelve years ago, he took to farming in a small way. He no.w works two acres of land on the north side of town quite intensively despite his advanced years. He claims this for his hobby, and is quite proud of the fact that he got a close­ up view of the Royal party, partic­ ularly in view of the fact that the Queen hails from his native village in Scotland. Mr. McFee walked about two miles yesterday to the station to see our distinguished guests.

(Continued on Page 4) THE KING AND QUEEN TALKED WITH VETERANS The King and Queen spent several minutes of their time here talking with the veterans who were lined up on the east and west sides of the Royal platform. One of the first spoken to by His Majesty was Frank Clark{_R, R. No. 3, Dorchester. The King &ked Mr. Clark what regiment he belonged to, where he enlisted, where he was born and how he was progressing in this country. Mr. Clark informed His Majesty that he enlisted with the 168th Battalion in Ingersoll and after going overseas was transferred to the 21st Battalion, 4th Brigade, 2nd Division. He was born in Berk­ shire, England, Mr. Clark said, "You are having a Royal welcome to Can­ ada Your Majesty,” to which the King replied, “It has been most wonderful and is far exceeding our expectations.” The King spoke to one veteran who was wearing a medal he said he got 57 years ago. When learning of this, the Queen remarked, “Isn’t that wonderful, you don’t meet many these days that have medals received that long ago.” The Queen spoke with F. W. Rowe of Avon, who served with the 19th Battalion. She enquired as to where he lived, where he enlisted and where he saw service. David Prosser was another with whom she conver­ sed. When he informed her he was a native of Wales, she said, "Things are looking better over there, work is picking up in the Welsh coal fields now.” David Wade of Thamesford, Earl Johnston, R. R. No. 2, Ingersoll, William Hipperson, Ingersoll and Robert McMurray were others with whom Their Majesties spoke. The Queen had a long chat with Forest Gould of Ingersoll, who paw service with the 18th Battalion. She told Mr/ Gould that she and the King wane having lovely visits with the veter­ ans they were meeting on their trip, and that the people in Canada were certainly giving them a royal welcome and a grand time. Mr. Gould hum­ orously remarked to Her Majesty, that he bet they wele not having any better time here, than he had on" his last visit of leave in Glasgow. The King shook hands with Arthur G. Cox of Ingersoll, when he noted by his medals that Mr. Cox was a vet­ eran of the South African. War. He inquired of him as to the battles in which he fought and the number of years he served. THE ROYAL COUPLE ENQUIRED ABOUT TOWN Mayor A. H. Edmonds and Mrs. Edmonds when questioned by The Tribune, said the Royal couple were lovely to talk with, "As usual with women,” remarked Mrs. Edmonds, "the Queen talked most. She appear­ ed greatly concerned about the warm weather, and asked the Mayor if we had it hot like this very often.” Mr. Edmonds replied, "This is just mild I" They both said they were very pleased to have visited Inger­ soll. The King enquired as to the population of the town and after the presentation said he wanted to go down from the platform and talk with the veterans and the boys.

The reponse of the Indiana and the benefits resulting from the initial short courses soon led the Department to extend the movement and make these classes available to the Indians of the Tyendinaga Reserve, near Deseronto, the Caradoc Reserve, near London, the Semis Reserve, and the Manitowaning Reseive on Manitoulin Island. They Appreciate Canada Canadians from the Atlantic to the Pacific haw readily discerned the fine tact and insight which have characterised the King’s speeches since he arrived in Canada, (but they will especially appreciate his ad­ dress at Victoria, the gateway of the Pacific, after he has concluded his journey from the Gulf of St. Law­ rence through the entire Dominion to the Pacific Ocean. It has not only been an enjoyable exper­ ience for Their Majesties, ,but it has also proved to be a wonderful education regarding the extent and resources of this vast Dominion and the spirit of its people. It has been given to few persons to make a trip across the country under such favorable auspices as Their Majesties have enjoyed. They have not only seen the country, with its rivers, great lakes, cities, towns and hamlets, the rolling prairies, the foothills, and the Rocky Mountains, but they have also witness­ ed the unprecedented demonstrations of loyalty and affection which the Canadian people entertain for the Crown. It was only fitting that as he stood in view of the vast Pacifiic Ocean, the western boundary of the Dominion the King should express some appreciation of his wonderful visit. ‘‘When I remember that here I am as far from Ottawa as Ottawa is from London," he exclaimed, “I realize something of the vastness of Canada. When I saw the broad plains changed by the pioneers to the uses of man, and the mighty mountain ranges through which they cut their roads, I began to understand the qualities of the Can­ adian people.” It is gratifying to know that Their Majesties, after having crossed the country,- appreciate its greatness and the spirit of its people. Canadians too have seen their King and Queen in the every day associations of life, and they have become more deeply attached to them and they frill sing with greater fervor than ever before, “God Save the King.” A New Danger Animal parasites seldom seen in the north are ex­ pected to be encountered more frequently in the fu­ ture, owing to the rapid air transportation from the South. The Rocky Mountain Medical Journal points out that any person coming from a country in which animal parasites are prevalent, is potentially a carrier. The United States Public Health Service requires inspection for such infestation of all persons and aero­ planes on commercial air lines arriving from foreign countries. Training For Night Driving Examinations for drivers’ licenses are made in the daylight. Most motorists learn to drive in the daylight. Because daylight conditions differ so much from those after dark, the Journal of the American Medical Association recommends special training 6f motorists at night. It points out that night driving involves a different technique because of the difference in visibility and in the reactions of motorists. ACIDOSIS — By J. W. S. McCullough, M.D. — Canada and Russia We have been hearing more about Russia recently dhan for some years, and it will be worth while to refresh our memories of what occurred to bring into being the U.S.R.R., the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. On March 17, 1917, following a revolution in Russia three days before, Czar Nicholas II abdicated. A republic was declared, and on November 7th of the same year a military revolutionary committee seized control and transferred the government authority to the All Russia Congress of Soviets. The federal sy­ stem was adopted by the 10th. All-Russian Congress of Soviets on December 31, 1922. The U.S.S.R. Gov­ ernment was recognized by Great Britain early in 1924 and became a member of the League of Nations in 1934. . The Soviet Union covers the greater part of the old Russian Empire, out of which also emerged the independent states of Poland, Finland, Estonia, Lat­ via and Lithuania. Trior to the Great War the Rus­ sian Empire covered more than 8,500,000 square miles, or very considerably more than twice the size of Canada, and had a population of about 183,000,- 000, the rural population being 80 per cent. The U.S. S.R. has an area of 8,241,673 square miles with 165,- 805,009 population. The Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic (Russia proper), consists of 50 governments and in­ cludes 11 autonomous republics and 10 autonomos (provinces. Local government was and still remains- highly developed. Under the Bolshevik regime popular education is administered by a commissary, in whose charge is placed all educational institutions, theatres, museums qnd galleries. The Government controls practically all the printing and publishing trades. The Oi^arlov Church was disestablished by the Bolshevik^and its property confiscated, and the teaching of religion to persons under 18 years of age forbidden. But the law did not forbid the exercise of religion and churches remained open. A recent questionnaire addressed to soldiers of the Red Army showed that 70 per cent believed in a Deity. Apart from the Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic with Moscow ns its capital, the leading re­ public is tjie Ukraine with Kieff as its capital. It has an area of 174',372 square miles, or less than half the area of Ontario, but it has a population of 32,- 000,000. It was invaded by Germany in 1917-18 and subsequently overrun by Bolshevik forces. The majority of the inhabitants belong to -the prcck Orthodox Church. It is the great cereal-growing district of the U.S.S.R. The other republics are Trans­ caucasia, which includes Armenia, Georgia, andAzer- Ibaijan, White Russia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan andTajikistan. Canada’s trade with the U.S.S.S.R. rose to over 311,000,000 in 1925, then dropped to $73,000 in 1932, and has been gradually increasing since then. It was $1,293,000 in 1938. We get soda and com­ pounds, coal and furs mainly, and we send much aluminium. The term Acidosis does not mean that the stomach is overfilled with acid. Acidosis is a different thing altogether. Where there is a real acidosis condition this has been brought about by accident or disease. It is incidental to such conditions as diarrhoea, excessive vomiting and starvation, to such diseases as diabetes and Bright’s disease of the kidneys, to severe skin bums and absorption of certain poisons. Quacks have exploited acidosis to the limit. The quack puts forth the erroneous doctrine that acidosis is produced by a wrong combination of foods. He wrongfully asserts that sugar, starchy foods and vegetables should never be mixed in the same meal with proteins, that is meat, eggs, milk, etc., though Nature has generally balanced such elements in foods such as cereals, vegetables and eggs. He talks of acid blood, (forgetting that such a condition is incompatible with life). Blood is actually neither acid nor alkaline, rather it is natural or at the most slightly alkaline. In one’s choice of food, neither a weighing scale, a measuring glass nor a book on diets is needed. In temperate climates, experience teaches that cereals with milk and cream, fruits, meat, fish, eggs and vegetables are the best foods. Similarly the cold of the Arctic and Antarctic regions demands a strong protein diet such as meat and fat, while carbohy­ drates and fruit arc the foods for the Tropics. When used with discretion, these various diets will suit man’s needs. Dr. L. I. Bogart in Nutrition and Fitness, says that “90% of digestive distress attributed to the kind or combinations of foods eaten is due rather to when over-tired, to taking at one meal too many unfavorable emotionable or mental states, to eating whtn over-tired, to taking at one meal too many foods which are difficult to digest than to the sort of IJpod.” There is no association of acidosis with the water-brajih or heart-burn commonly found in hyper­ acidity-of the stomach. LOOKING BACK 23 YEARS From the Files of The Oxford’Tribune, Ingersoll, Canada, Thursday, June 8th, 1916 The ROYAL VISIT By 5. J. DORNAN, C.W.N.A. Repre.ent.tivo on the Press Pilot Train Third Release Covering the Visit of Their Majesties to Western Canada and the Pacific Coast Short Courses Popular With Indians Short courses in agriculture and home economics , are getting a popular response from Canada’s Indians, ,according to the Indian Affairs Branch of the De- . partment of Mines and Resources. Attendance at the courses held recently on the . Six Nations Reserve, " near Bransford, Ontario, wiys tripled compared with \’ previous years, and apart from those taking the regu- lar classes-a large number of Indians attended lec­ tures on subjects of particular interest to themselves. These courses are arranged to provide practical education in the way of farming and home-making that should be valuable to the young Indians. Al­ though arranged primarily for the young people, the old^r Indians are also invited to attend. The course in agriculture includes a study of the various breeds of live7 stock, including principles of breeding and practical work in judging cattle, horses and other animals. Elementary instruction is given which in­ cludes information ■ on the substitution of cheaper for more expensive foods jn balancing rations. In 'poultry raising the Indians are taught selection of «, breeding stock, feeding, housing, killing and prepar­ ing for market, as .well as prevention of common diseases. Other lectures coyer field crops vegetables and small fruits, weeds soils and fertilizers. The home economics course for the young women covers foods and their preparation, emphosing the im­ portance of the proper foods to provide normal devel­ opment and maintenance of health. Under instruct­ ion the students are required to use and alter pat­ terns, cut, fit and make garments. Other items of Mrs. W. T.

Mrs. Stephen Noxon received a message this mor­ ning announcing the death of her nephew, Lieut. C. A. Wilson of Edmonton, in the Zillebeke engage­ ment. Mr. Wilson was <in his 28th year and was prior to his going overseas at the outbreak of the ,war. a successful (barrister in Edmonton. Mrs. Wm. J. Tune, Francis street, was a recent guest of her sister, Mrs. Cash in St. Thomas. Mrs. William Brown of Ingersoll, Ont, announces the engagement of her daughter, Janetta Bell, (Net­ tie), to Mr. Joseph Garfield Gibson, barrister-at-law, of Toronto. The marriage will take place very quietly late fn June. The remains of a former Ingersoll lady, Mrs. Mat­ thew Bixel were laid to rest last Thursday afternoon in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery. The pall bearers were John Paterson, Marshall McMurray, Geo. Beck, M. J. Morrison, J. E. Boles and-Wm. Rosa. Born—In Ingersoll, on Tuesday, June 16th, 1916, to Mr. and Mrs. Ewart Wilson a daughter. A pretty wedding was solehinized at the Hill Street Methodist .Parsonage, 151 Colborne Street, when Miss Hazel Jbyon of Dutton, became the bride of Lawson Eckhardt, of Ingersoll, on Tuesday after­ noon. John Thompson of Toronto, spent a' few days at his home, Canterbury street, last week. Vancouver, May 30, 1939 Leaving Winnipeg, where the re­ ception was really colossal, the train ran into Portage exactly on time and was greeted by a huge crowd massed around the station; there was only a short stop but there ya8 ample evidence of the western loy­ alty which we first saw at Winnipeg. After dusk set in we entered the approach of the C. P. R. station at Brandon and here was the most astounding display of the entire trip; banked on a natural hill which sloped back 1 to Railway Avenue, were eleven thousand school child­ ren from Brandon schools and one hundred rural districts in that por­ tion of Manitoba; added to the chil­ dren' were 20,000 adults from the city and district; the reception plat­ form was bathed in floodlights which made it as bright as day. The rous­ ing reception given the press train was ample evidence that Their Majesties were in for a real royal acclaim. Both trains were stopped at Ken- may for sleeping, but left early next morning on the way to Regina; pass­ ing through Wapella Moosomin, Vir­ den, Whitewood, Wolseley, Broad view and Indian Head, all of these points were gaily decorated and each had its quota of citizens who gave a splendid account of themselves by cheering; at many of these points it was quite noticeable the number of aged persons w'ho (were ready to greet their King., and Queen by means of waving a flag. Arrival in Regina saw the sun shining in all its splendour; the writer received & welcome on the platform from Premier W. J. Pat­ terson and Mr. D. B. MacRae, the latter requesting that we go on the radio foe. several minutes with a greeting to the people of our homo province; to do_this we were rushed up to the roof of the ’Union Station in an elevator and there answered several questions put to us by Mr. Speers of CKCK, the pioneer broad-, casting station of Saskatchewan. C/ming down from the roof wc had missed our “press car” and prepared to wait until after Their Majesties had arrived and left the station; as a consequence we stood at the main entrance to the station and witnessed one of the greatest demonstrations of loyalty of lhe entire tour; thous- r.ncs lined all approaehes to the station and every budding -.ad its full quota of cheering populace, this reception was so demonstrative that several men whom we know person­ ally to be not easily effected had tears streaming down their faces. As one man said to me “isn’t she a wonderful young woman and he is so youthful”; it was indeed very dram­ atic to see the reaction of this im­ mense crowd to the smiling counten­ ance of Her Majesty and the re­ spectful salute of The King. The reception and acclaim of the capital city of Regina extended to Their Majesties left nothing to be wished for; the keystone province of the Dominion took this lovely Scottish lady and this noble English gentle­ man, Our beloved King and Queen, to their hearts, and shouted, cried and even screamed their welcome. When it came time 'to say farewell, Reginians did it well. At Regina the press men and women were the guests of'the city business men to an informal reception in the ball room of the Hotel Saskatchewan and this “get-together” vfas one of the highlights of the press trip so far and that is saying a lot for we have been royally received at every point. This writer enjoyed almost a com­ plete rest day in Regina for it was here that I saw my ,wife and family and\,met scores of friends; this can be better appreciated when I tell you I have been longer away from my home and office on this trip than I have in the past twenty-five years. . Shortly after leaving Regina we received another tumultuous greet­ ing when we reached Moose Jaw; here another radio broadcast took place from the roof of the station with Charles Jennings, chief an­ nouncer of CBC, P. F. Dimbelbe, of BBC, as guest speakers and Assist­ ant Postmaster on Royal train; Major Pascoe as Master of Cere­ monies. This city was a wonderful sight with a profusion of illumina­ tions and no end of decorations and the usual cheering thousands. I had every intention of getting up the following morning at 5.30 at Swift Current, to greet Jim’ Green- blat, President of the Saskatchewan Division, C.W.N.A., but fatigue was telling and I overslept, much to my regret At Swift Current a parcel of The Swift Current Sun was on the train for me end I had them dis­ tributed through the can; in this connection I might mention that the following papers, members of the C.W.N.A. sent me parcels of their papers and each was placed through­ out the press trains fiJonservator", Brampton, Orit; Swjfn River Star, Swift Current Sun find Alameda Dis­patch. More are yej to come so I am advised. Calgary extended a wonderful re ception to their King and Queen; the city was in gala attire and at this point there was an extensive Indian Encampment; when Then Majesties reached the Indian display the Redskins insisted that they initiate His Majesty but this was not permitted owing to lack of time; the Indians, however, stopped the Royal car by throwing Buffalo robes in its path and Their Majesties alighted And chatted with those in charge. Banff next and that means the pal- acial Banff Springs Hotel, the most beautiful hotel on the continent when luxury and grandeur of scenery is considered; owned and operated by the Canadian Pacific Railway Go., ic is situated at the junction of the fam­ ous Bojw River and Elbow River and looks out over Bow River Val­ ley; Mr. R. M. Deyell, the genial manager and his capable staff await­ ed the arrival of Their Majesties and escorted them to the Vice-Regal suite on the sixth floor. Banff was a day of rest for all concerned. Short­ ly after the arrival of the Royal party, I, in company with two friends, Mr. Ernest Bushnell and Mr. Charles Jennings, both executive officials of the Canadian Broadcasting Corpor­ ation, went for a walk to the Bow River falls and on returning up the narrow and steep pathway, we met Their Majesties attired in walking clothes proceeding, unattended, to­ ward the falls. It was a shock, but a pleasant one and was to be fol­ lowed by several such experiences while at Banff. The press men were guests at a dinner given by the Gov­ ernment of Canada, at which the Right Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, Prime Minister and all the members of the Royal suite were present; after this function there was a de­ lightful musical in the Lord Mount Stephen room; while listening to this delightful treat those along with me observed Their Majesties standmg at an alcove above; soon there came a Royal Command from Her Majesty for a particular song and this was sweetly rendered. While debating whether to take a walk or go to bed, we were pleasantly surprised to see The King and Queen walk towards the crowd and both were very grac­ ious; they chatted with many mem­ bers of the press and laughed heartily at some of the remarks made by visit­ ing journalists in the pprty. My, oh my, how very charming they both .are; such incidents as this and a score of others have completely won the hearts of every person with the press train. On Sunday morning I walked to the station and took a Icok at the beautiful little'Anglican church in" the town of Banff where Their Majesties attended a special service, before leaving on an auto drive to Lake Louise and Field. The trip through the mountains was un­ eventful until we stopped at Revel­ stoke, B.C., where I met W. S. Harris of Vernon and Mr. MacLean of Kel­ owna, B.C., two-of the B.C. weekly publishers. At 9.30 a.m., we ar­ rived in Vancouver where a tumult-, uous greeting was extended Their Majesties and which I witnessed at close range, having been assigned to the roof of shed C opposite to the ramp of the CJ\R. station. The train had scarcely rolled to a stop when Their Majesties stepped to the platform to be greete^- by a vociferous acclaim; His Majesty dressed in the smart grey uniform of his rank as Marshal of the Royal Air Force; Their Majesties were greeted by His Worship Mayor Tel­ ford and other city officials. The guard of honor was composed of the Canadian Seaforth Highlanders with their band and regimental colors. The Queen, a lovely picture of regal grace and dignity, wore her usual charming smile and immediately charmed all within sight of her sweet presence; as Their Majesties passed the press stand the . Queen bestowed a smile on the men and women who have been following the trip and re­ cording every movement ■ After a drive around Vancouver and inspection of the profusion of decorations, bunting and a score of other methods of outwardly express­ ing the loyalty of the citizens, I arrived at the new and palacial Hotel Vancouver; here I was deeply impressed and distressed with the show of military and police regula­ tions; it was about as easy to enter the Bank of Canada at midnight as it was to either enter or leave this hotel. On arrival at the hotel Their Majesties stepped out on the balcony and received a thunderous greeting from an estimated 500,000 people gathered from the city and suburbs as well as many thousands from south of the International border. The Royal party leave Vancouver this afternoon for Victoria and as the Pilot boat precedes them by one hour I will have to faring this release to a close in Order to rush it to Brampton and the capable hands of Clarence V. Charters for his atten­ tion. The next story will deal with Victoria the most westerly point Their Majesties .will touch on this 3,000 mile jaunt across this western portion of their far flung empire. Challenge .To Canadian Fanners — By —- Major General John A. Gunn In common with farmers through-' cut Canada I was greatly relieved to see that the Mother Country in her mature judgment, has given us the benefit of her long experience in international affairs and has inter­ preted for us what the 'Aade Agree­ ment of 1937 means. Mhat must touch a deep chord in the heart of every farmer who has his livelihood to make on the land is the final statement contained in the British Minister’s reply. It is worth repeating here: “I would, however, add that we realize the special consider­ ations affecting the Canadian dairy and live stock interests out of which the proposed apt- ion arose, and that if any other suggestions could be put for­ ward .which would not have the same difficulties from our point of view, we should, of course, be very ready to consider them.” Reading this one can only inter­ pret it as an invitation to farmers to study our agricultural problems along broad lines with a view to making them fit in with the Common­ wealth’s needs. To my mind this is a challenge to Canadian farmers to put their house in order by increasing their effic­ iency through adopting progressive methods. v The Federal and Provincial Gov­ ernments are providing through their agricultural colleges, experimental farms and district representatives, marked leadership in this connection. There is no production problem of any kind which faces fanners in Canada -to-day which cannot be solved by making use of these ser­ vices so cheerfully furnished. Now that the hazard is past, do not let us farmers drop back into a coma again. Let us be up and doing. Every farming section in Canada should organize study groups where individual problems may be discuss­ ed and a solution found. The thing that impresses me more than any­ thing else in connection with farm­ ing is that there is no what might be termed indvidual competition There are no business secrets. Our/operations are wide open. Our suc­ cess or failure depends largely upon our united efforts. This being the case, why can ,we not get together with a view to solving our difficul­ ties.,. What strikes me as the imme­ diate concern of every fanner is— (1) By strict sanitary methods, to improve our milk and cream production, which would immediately stimulate local and export consump­ tion. (2) Produce more and better dairy and fat cattle. (3) Make up our minds that within the next year we will pick up the slack in our export bacon quota. If every fanner already raising pigs would keep just o n e more sow, Canada would have no difficulty in taking advantage of her full quota within the next twelve months. It is in this manner that we farm­ ers can best reply to Sir Thomas Inskip’s friendly message. Deanery of Oxford S. S. By Post Examinations The following pupils of Mrs. F.

Baptist Convention Being Held in Toronto Marking 50 years of Baptist his­ tory in Ontario and Quebec, the greatest convention in the annals of this denomination will be held in Toronto from June 8 to 14. The convention will commemorate the-50th anniversary of this'church ■body in Ontario and Quebec and will also be the first ti.me that the Wom­ en’s Missionary Societies, the Bap­ tist Young People’s Union and the general convention have met in the same place, at the same time and with some of their se^ions together. The object of this convention, as outlined by Rev. J.,A. Johnston, member of the jubilee committee, is “to deepen, enrich and ennoble the Christian experience of our people and to bring inspiration and chal­ lenge to our churches.” Delegates numbering 7,500 from various parts of Ontario and Que­ bec are expected to attend. The sac­ rifice of their time and energy, the mobilization of their forces to go “Forward with Christ” and the dedi­ cation of their efforts and their work is, truly, characteristic of the Baptist faith. Stimulated and inspired by the zeal and ardor of its pastors, the growth and the development of the Baptist denomination in Ontario and Quebec during the past half century has been praiseworthy. During the next 50 years even greater progress should be noted and an even greater contri­ bution to all humanity should be recorded by the Baptist Church.

H. Edmonds and Mrs. Edmonds, who were pre­ sented to the royal couple by Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, Prime Mini­ ster of Canada. Their Majesties, accompanied by the mayor and mayoress and prime minister, then proceeded along a platform walk to the raised dais, over which the citizens who had the honour of being presented, passed. An address of welcome to Their Majesties was presented by His Wor­ ship the Mayor, while Mrs. Edmonds presented a beautiful bouquet to Queen Elizabeth, on behalf of the citizens of the Town of Ingersoll. The special military guard around the fenced-ofT enclosure', under the command of Major J. C. Herbert of the Oxford RiQes, presented arms as the royal party proceeded to the dais. Those presented to the King and Queen by Mayor Edmonds were: Senator Hon. Donald Sutherland and Mrs. Sutherland, Ingersoll; Mr. A. S. Rennie, M.P. for Oxford and Mrs. Rennie, Tillsonburg; Mayor George H. Hollier and Mrs. Hollier, Tillson­ burg, and the following from Inger­ soll: Postmaster S. A. Gibson and Mrs. Gibson, Councillor Dr. J. G. Murray and Mrs. Murray, Councillor Archie W. Clark and his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Clark, Councillor Thomas J. Morrison and Mrs. Morri­ son, Councillor Sidney H. Under­ wood and Mrs. Underwood, Council­ lor Stanley J. Smith and Mrs. Smith, Councillor George Preston and Mrs. Preston, Town Clerk Robert McNjven and Mrs. McNiven. Immediately Their Majesties and attendant staff mounted the plat­ form, 30 feet by 3(S>£eet, covered with a royal red carpet, Lieut.-Col. J. C. Hegler, K.C., of Ingersoll, Oxford County’s oldest K.C., broke the royal rtandard which fluttered in a light breeze above the royal platform. THEIR MAJESTIES WILL REMEMBER INGERSOLL AS THE CHEESE TOWN The two greatest personages in the British Empire, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, as they left Ingersoll, carried with them ^pn the Royal train, two ten pound Stilton cheese, placed on the trairt here. - Western Ontario cheese makers, interested in giving the Royal couple a sample of a Canadian product for which Ingersoll and district is noted, contacted Prime Minister King and asked permission to make the presen­ tation of cheese to Their Majesties. C. N. Seipp, R. R. No. 4, Thorndale, handled the correspondence. He wired Rt. Hon. Mr. King for permis­ sion to make the presentation of the Canadian cheese,. but as it was against the established custom of Their Majesties to accept the gift, and as presumably the Prime Minis­ ter desired them to have the cheese, he found a way out of the predica­ ment a nd, the two cheese were placed on the train during the stop,here. The Prime Minister’s secretary, E. H. Coleman, sent the following wire which is self explanatory and was the key that unlocked the barrier against the presentation. “Their Majesties in accordance with long standard custom, are un­ able to accept gifts. If however, factory desires to place cheese on Royal train, it may be delivered to Mr. Swindon, Dining Car Number Ten.” The cheese were delivered to Din­ ing Car Number Ten by/5Ir. Seipp, while the train, stopped"in Ingersoll. MOUNT ELGIN GIRLTALKED WITH ROYALTYAT WHITE RIVER When the Royal train stopped at White River, “Canada’s coldest spot”, on May 23rd, among those to be pre­ sented to Their Majesties was Miss Pauline Duffy, B.A., a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Duffy, Mount Elgin, who is one of the teachers on the staff of the White River Contin­ uation School. Miss Duffy attended the Mount Elgin Public and Contin­ uation Schools and is a graduate of the University of Western Ontario. She has been teaching for the past three years, two of which were spent at Blind River. It was at White River that the Queen was presented with a mass of wild Mayflowers planted in a real birch bark canoe, three feet long. The canoe was made by Elzcar Urs- sian, who took three days to fashion it by hand from small cedar twigs r.nd real birch bark. Miss Pauline Duffy, along with the postmistress, Miss Ethel McDougall, picked the flowers that were planted in the canoe. On the presentation craft were the words: “White River, May 23rd, 1939.” One paddle had printed on it, “Margaret Rose,” and the other “Elizabeth.” In accepting the gift from eight­ year- old Joyce Adams who made the presentation, Queen Elizabeth said, “I’ll take this canoe home to my children.” The stop at White River lasted ever half an hour* and the school children of the village sang for the Royal party while there. They were taught their vocal numbers by Miss Duffy. HEARTBURN KEPTHIM AWAKE Afraid to Eat Square Meal What a worry he must have beento his wife! No food agreed withhim.

Rhubarb—or pie plant, if you prefer grandmother’s word for it— has been a harbinger of spring for many generations, but rhubarb pie used to be a temperamental deli­ cacy because it was often too juicy Today we take a tip from the chefs and use Ingredients to thicken the juice so that it won't overflow its bounds. So here is a specially luscious and delicious rhubarb pie. Just get together with one and one-half tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca, one and one-third cups sugar, one- fourth teaspoon salt, teaspoon grated orange rind, tablespoon melted butter, four cups cut rhu­ barb and one recipe pie crust. Combine ingredients and let stand about 15 minutes. Line a nine- inch plate with pastry rolled one- eighth inch thick, allowing pastry to extend one inch beyond edge. Fold edge back to form standing rim. Fill with rhubarb mixture Moisten edge of pastry with cold water; arrange lattice of pastry I strips across top. Flute rim with I fingers. Bake in 400 degrees F oven1 for 15 minutes, then decrease heal to 350 degrees F. and bake 30 min­ utes longer Pecan Tarts Pecan tarts may not have the therapeutic value of a pie filled with rhubarb, but they make a mighty nice spring offering just the same. The recipe calls for one-half cup water, three and one-half table, spoons qulek-cooking tapioca, two- thirds cup sugar, one-eighth tea­ spoon salt, one cup dark corn syrup, three slightly-beaten eggs, two tablespoons butter, two-thirds cup coarsely-chopped pecan meats and eight unbaked three and one-half, inch tart shells. Combine water, tapioca, sugar and salt in a sauce- pan and mix well. Bring mixture quickly to a full boil over directheat,, stirring constantly. Remove from fire. Add corn syrup, eggs and butter and stir until blended Cool, stirring occasionally (mixture thickens as it cools). Place about tablespoon of nuts in bottom of each unbaked tart shell; fill with tapioca mixture and bake in hot oven <425 degrees F) for 20 minutes or untilbrowned.

Addrm a o f W rlromr ®hpir fUajratwH A t Jiu p rsoU To Their Most Excellent Majesties The King and Queen. Sire and Madame: To-day, Ingersoll has been indeed honoured bya brief stop of the Royal train bearing our SovereignKing and Queen on their sojourn in Canada. On behalf of your subjects of the county of Oxford andthe town of Ingersoll, a hearty welcome andassurance of loyalty is extended. We exceedingly regret that your visit to• Ingersoll is of so short duration, but we readilyunderstand that the call upon yoyr presence on such a triumphant tour must of necessity be guided bytime. Oxford county is one of the most loyal in thisDominion. It was founded by Loyalists that begatLoyalists. Just over 100 years ago many of thesailors and soldiers • from the Napoleonic warscrossed the Atlantic and engaged themselves withdifferent problems in a dense forest. Far from thetoll of Trafalgar and the blood-soaked fields ofFlanders they, unhesitatingly turned from platoonto plough and from sails to seeds. Linked withindomitable foresight and fortitude they have witnessed the transformation of timberland intofarm land and from farm land into fruitful fields.It is befitting that our forefathers be mentioned sothat Your Majesties can view the essence of theirtoil while the train proceeds through the county. If time had permitted, it would have been our greatest desire for Her Majesty the Queen to haveseen a piece of her native Scotland that has beentransplanted only a few miles from this station. Ithas been said that the Zorras and Embro are moreScottish in custom and tradition than people in Old Scotia to-day. Settled in the thirties and forties ofthe last century by Rugged Highlanders in a terri­tory that boasts of hundreds of hills and dales they,with ardent ambition, axe and oxen have left us aninspiration and heritage that only the dust of timecan efface. These pioneel's included the Suther­ lands the McKays, the Rosses, the Munroes, andother equally well-known families. The very first cheese factory in the Dominion ofCanada was established in this county and Ingersollig.noted for being the centre of this very importantindustry and its allied trades. Cheese products have contributed much to prosperity and promin-ence"with the county of Oxford and the town ofIngersoll. In closing may I, on behalf of the town ofIngersoll, again thank you for your presence onthis auspicious occasion and assure you of the loyalty of your subjects of Ingersoll and Oxfordcounty. Sincerely yours, ALEX. H. EDMONDS,Mayor of the town of Ingersoll.Ingersoll, Canada,June 7, 1939. (The above address as presented to Their Majesties by Mayor A. H. Edmonds, was prepared by Sister Maura ofSacred Heart Convent, London, in lovely script with colored design at the top of the Royal Standard. The arrangementsfor the work were made by Mother Superior Wenifreda, ofSt Joseph’s Convent, Ingersoll.) MOUNT ELGIN FARMERS ATTENTION!

There were the Texas Haverils, big lean men with blue­black beards and challenging eyes.There were the Panhandle Haverils still farther westward. Then, stillfarther west were the New Mexico Haverils, the Sundown Haverils asfi.ey came to be known.Of the Sundown Haverils there war one called Ban-y who in manywcys could have been looked on as Mo embodiment of the outstandingentities of the whole family.His father, Ber. Haveril, was still z young man. lusty and rugged andviolent, generous and kindly enough with his small flock at most times,V'tje short of a devil when in drink, xili mother, Lucinda, was one ofOu Oakwoods of Virginia who stillclung, tenaciously to their own fam­ ily traditions and pride.It was she who had given her youngest his name, which wasn’tJarry at all but Baron. She saidproudly that there had been a Baron Oakwood long ago, which meantuothing to little Barry himself. In his latter ’teens Barry lefthome. He didn’t know why he went kWay. He didn’t think about it ItWas the forests pulling him.During the six or eight weeks be­ fore he had any thought of turningb*ck homeward he made many long «ploratory trips toward both northend west through the mountains. -Only twice in that time did he seehuman beings.One day, toward sundown, he sat 03 a rock in front of his cabin look­fag down into the long sinuous val- Lr below, a sight he seldom tiredtrooding over. He had named it/or himself Sun Creek Valley. He heard rifle shots muffled with distance in an intervening neck of♦he woods. He had never heard soOany shots so close together and Wondered how many men therepere and what they could be shoot- .hf at. He got his answer almostInstantly. There were several menshooting at a single rider who hadfled on ahead into the lower endof Barry's Sun Creek Valley. through his left shoulder, he crawled into Barry’s bunk and layquiet.When Conroy got out of bed to move restlessly about he began ask­ing questions. He wanted to know how it was that Barry lived hereall alone, where he had come from— and why.Why W he come? Well, hedidn't rightly know. He’d just leftone place and gone another. Con­roy watched him narrowly, plainlybelieving that he was being told ameager part of the truth. Thenhe asked, still eying Barry with bright suspicion as though watchingfor sign of another lie, what his name was"Barry. Me, I’m Barry Haveril.”Conroy started laughing. “Say, that's funny,” he said, “I'ma Haveril, too, one o' the Texas Haverils; but my name’s Jesse Con­roy. Ever heard that name, Barry?”“No,” said Barry. "I never. But if you’re a Haveril how’s your name Conroy?"“Shucks” said Jesse. “It’s myol’ lady that's the Haveril, an’ she married a man name of Conroy."Barry pondered. “I’d reckon thatmakes you anyhow a half Haveril,"he said..Thereafter they called each other Cousin Jesse and Cousin Barry, un­til Jesse took to calling Barry just plain Sundown.“I'd like to hear about the bandits that chased you up here. CousinJesse," said Barry one day.“I ain't finished with Them hom­ bres, Sundown," Jesse said angrily.“Shore, I’ll tell you about 'em." He told his tale forcefully andclearly, and Barry Haveril believed every word of it There were sixof them, said Jesse. They were Bud Walters, a cowboy: Bill andTom Bcdloe, ranchers near Tylers-ville; Sam Johnson, teamster and deputy sheriff and all around crook;Sff Cody, the gambler; and Dan ardy. Most folks didn't suspectthem for what they were, they were that crafty. But Jesse Conroy knew!Hadn't he seen them when they held up the Cold Springs stage;they’d killed the driver and the guard and got away with the strongbox. Then they had seen Jesse Con­ roy, who just happened to be cut- and lingered there like a lover'sgaze. Then his feet began shufflingin the dead pine needles. Hecouldn’t think of anything to say. A* the days passed, young Con­roy grew steady on his legs again and hi* wounds healed and thehealthy tan came back into his face.Barry could see the restlessness surge up higher and higher in him every day.One morning in a still dim bluishdawn Jesse Conroy slung-his buck­ skin bag to his belt, shouldered hiscarbine and left“So long, Cousin Barry," he said. “So long, Cousin Jesse,” saidBarry. Barry watched him out of sight,only vaguely wondering where he was going Then he returned to hiscabin and sat on the step and up­holstered his treasure. He began thinking of his folk,especially of his sister,, little Lucy. He wondered too about ZacharyBlount; had the teacher — lawyer now in long-tailed coat and high hat—carried her off? He rolled his pack, closed hisdoor, shouldered his rifle, and withthe comfortable feel of a heavy long barrel bumping at his hip, turnedback toward his father's place. He came within sight of the clearingand the rock-and-log cabin toward the end of the second day; the sunwas below the tops of the pines so that already it was twilight all aboutthe house, and he heard the call andsaw the flickering wing-dip of a first night hawk. Otherwise all wasvery still He experienced a queer, disturbing feeling, a swift con­sciousness of desertion. The track down to the lower meadow and thenarrow crooked path to the spring house were weed-grown. Then he found his mother's let­ ter. Over the fireplace, a wansquare in the dimness, was a sheetof paper on a nail. Barry took it down and read it sitting on thestoop. The first words were, “To Robert or Baron, whichever comes homefirst.” Robert was Barry's brother, the oldest of the three sons. Therest of a hastily written letter an­ swered all Barry’s questions forhim. First of all, Lucy had married He saw the flash of reddish-yel­low fire when the fugitive, fleeingno longer, fired at his pursuerswhom Barry could not see. ,If it hadn’t been so far he would have drawn to go down and findout about things Also it was swiftly growing dark; it would be a moon­less night and whatever was hap­pening down there would be over in a few minutes or would have toawait^sunup. But before sunup he was on hisway to investigate. The dawn was brightening and he had traveled halfthe distance when a voice called to him from a brush thicket:"Drop yore gun! Drop it quickor I’ll kill yuh?* The speaker was not ten stepsaway. Barry let his rifle slide out of his hands and felt a queer prick­ling chill along his blood as he jerked his head about to stare. Atfirst he could scc.nothing but graybuck brush and gray rocks. Then he saw the muzzle of a rifle barrelresting on a flat-topped boulder. "Step over this way,” said thevoice. "Step, kid, or I’ll shoot yuh daid.”Barry obeyed.That was how he first met up with Jesse Conroy. This Conroy,on the day Barry first saw him, was about twenty-three years oldand, coiled as he was behind the rock, with his bright black eyes glit­tering amj an ugly twist to hiswhitc-'iqj(rd mouth, he made Barry think of a rattlesnake, he seemedjust that full of the menace of sud­ den death He was a dashinglyhandsome young devil and none the less devilish for an almost girlishlyfine-featured face. There wasenough light for Barry to make out that he was pretty badly hurt.Conroy was suspicious of him at first, afraid that he might be oneof the crowd .that had killed his horse under him and shot him downlast night. Once that he learned otherwise his manner changed."I’m hurt right b'd," he said,"but I’ll make it yet. Especially if I can have help. Those fellers thatrode me down, they’ll be cornin’ back after a while. But they won’thurry. I knocked over anyhow two an’ mebbe three, an’ I’d of got ’emall if one o’ their bullets hadn’t ofglanced off’n a rock aif drilled me.” “Why’d they want to drill you?”asked Barry. "They’re bandits, that’s what,"said Conroy, "Killers. Now yuhgot to help me clean out afcre theycome'jneakin' back."“I’ll go get me my rifle,” said Barry.“Shore.” nodded Conroy. "Thencorrie give me some help. I c’n hardly walk, but if I had both laigs shot off I’d somehow make it.”After they had done what theycould do for Conroy’s two wounds, one through his left prm. one “Drop yore gun I” said the voice. ting into the stage road from a sidetrail, and they knew it was all up with thefn unless they rubbed himout."I’ll get ’em some day. CousinBarry,” Jesse went on. “Yuh setif I don’t. But for a while I better go slow.”Presently a thin smile touched his lips as he said idly: “What doyuh think o’ this here six-gun o’mine, Sundown?" “I never saw one like that,”breathed Barry almost reverentially. "Try a shot with it,” offeredJesse. "I’ll show yuh.” Barry tingled; he held the weaponlovingly; he lowered it and raised it just as Conroy had been doing,“I’ll show yuh,” said Conroyagain. Barry sat humbly listening as Jesse, leaning against the cabinwall, explained and demonstrated. Instantly he realized that his cousinwas as deadly with the Colt as hehimself was with his rifle. Jesse said, "Here's some cart­ridges,” and poured them into Bar­ ry’s eager palm. And then he saidlaughing: "Yuh c’n have it. Sun­ down. I'm givin' it to yuh.”Barry just stood there, shells inone hand, gun in the other, and gawked at him. He knew that hehad heard the words correctly; it must be that they meant somethingelse."Jesse laughed again, his hand­ some dark eyes flashing.“Shore." he said. "I'm givjn’ yuhmy gun, Cousin Barry. It's yore*nright this minute.”Barry looked at him with shining >yes. But that look was only afleeting one since in a flash his eyes returned to the red-butted revolver Zachary Blount and the two wereliving in Tylersville; Zachary was practicing law and was associatedwith a great man, Judge Parker Blue. Through Zachary, Judge Bluehad sent an offer to Barry’s father to go Ihto the cattle business withhim: on shares it was. So all the family were moving down into thecow country, onto one of theJudge's several spreads. There wasa postscript: "Whichever of youboys reads this first, let him leave it here for the other.”Well, his fnother and father and his brother Lute were on a cattfcranch now. And Robert was some­ where or other. In the morning he decided to go out of his way a bit in making hisreturn journey. That was because it dawned on Barry that he aloneof his family might guess whatRobert was up to. “Anyhow I'll go past Tex Humph­ reys place,” Barry decided. Barry happened to know thatRooert was crazy about one of the Humphreys girls. So now, turning his back on the old log home, he headed tow rd theHumphreys’ horse ranch. He meant just to drop in and sav “Howdy,"and ask casually, UScen any o’ mv folks lately, Tex?" But there wasto be no such casual talk that day . At the foot of Black Mountainm a peaceful and quiet little whis­ pering glen shut in by quiveringaspens, he came suddenly, all with­out warning, upon the stark horrorof a thing which only a short timebefore, surely not more than a daybefore, had been Robert Haveril (To Be Continued) AVON k ■ Mr. and* Mrs. Melvin Early of De­ troit, were Sunday guests of Mr. andMrs. Robert Pullin.

Vouchers aggregating about 3,000,- 000 lbs. of butter were distributed among the provinces on a pro-rata basis, according to the number of families on relief. Ontario’s propor­ tion on this basis was a little over 1,000,000 lbs. Agreement with the Government stipulated that distribu­ tion throughout the Dominion would be on a basis of 80% of vouchers to families now on relief ,doubling present issue of butter until supply exhausted, and 20% to families in urban centres not on relief but in need of this assistance. Distribution of relief vouchers is being accomp­ lished through official, municipal and township relief organizations, while distribution of non-reilief vouchers •will be through recognized welfare investigating organizations in each centre. The greater portion of On­ tario’s vouchers have already been shipped by the Red Cross to designa­ ted relief agencies in all parts of thd province. The remaining shipments will be completed within the next few days. Brought to the attention of the meeting was the resolution from the National Council of the Canadian Red Cross to the effect that this So­ ciety is organizing immediately for such work as was done by the Red Cross during the Great War at home and abroad and is enrolling nurses, V.A.D.’s and other helpers to be call­ ed upon for disaster relief in Can­ ada or for such other duties as may be required of the Red Cross by the Canadian Government. The Red Cross invites all persons and organ­ izations interested in these services to enroll themselves at their local Red Cross office giving full particu­ lars of their qualifications. For the second successive .winter, a Red Cross nurse has been stationed at Tobermory, northern tip of the Bruce Peninsula, in order to bring medical care within reach of this community when snow and blocked road cut them off from other medical help.

The evolution of the Combine to the small, compact model nowmade available has revolutionized harvesting, making it an easily undertaken task for the regular help of the farm. Its production at acost to the farmer of but one-third the price of the earlier, bigger models, is an evidence of the contribution made by the implement maker to help the farmer meet the problems with which he is con­ fronted. The lower operating costs of this machine, and thfrreduction it enables to be made in the cost of harvesting, saving as it does upto 15c a bushel for complete harvesting, has meant, in a great many instances, a profit instead of a loss to the farmer. Power of course is the basis of the great mechanistic progress ofagriculture and the record of attainment in making more efficient, less costly, and lower operating cost models available is an achieve­ment that cannot be beaten by any other industry. To-day’s modern streamlined, high efficiency tractors make earlier models look likepre-historic monstrosities and sell for about one-half the price, costing less than half to operate. Massey-Harris is pleased to have taken a leading part in develop­ing machines which are destined to play so important a part in making agriculture profitable.

Moderate to heavy rainfall has been beneficial and has improved the con­ dition of crops in areas where soil drifting has occurred. In Southern and Central Manitoba, Southeast and Central Saskatchewan and Southwestern Alberta precipitation has been light and1 good rains are needed to maintain present pros­ pects. Cutworms and wireworms are* prevalent but no important damage is reported. An outbreak of grass- hopped is threatening crops, but measures are being taken to combat these'insects. In Quebec Province the season is larger than average, but seeding is now well advanced, early growth improving and apple bloom promising. In Ontario, while cool weather retarded growth, fav­ orable conditions now prevail, and crops are making rapid growth, al­ though some Southwestern sections are in nded of rain. Seeding of Spring grains is nearing completion. Fruit tr$es have blossomed well. In the Maritime Provinces ploughing' and seeding, hitherto delayed are now well under way. Heavy bloom is indicated in Annapolis Valley or­ chards. In British Columbia seeding of field crops has been completed in good time, good crops of hay are in­ dicated and prospects are favorable for orchard fruit and berries.” American Beauty roses from her grandchildren, gifts of money from the family, and friends also sentflowers and messages of congratula­ tions and good wishes.Mr. and Mrs. C.

How To Combat Household Pests Throughout the world there is con­ stant warfare between mankind and the insects, stated Dr. Arthur Gibson, Dominion Entomologist, in a recent address. In the whole world over 600,000 different kinds of insects have been studied and classified, and probably as many more distinct species await classification. Fortun­ ately only a compartively small num­ ber of insects infest houses, but those who do are objected to strenuously. Every dwelling in Canada is subject to infestation by these creatures. The well-known housefly found in all parts of the world spreads patho­ genic organisms by carrying these on the hairs or other external surfaces of their bodies to human foodstuffs, including liquids, or even to the hu­ man body. This insect is notorious for the part it plays in the dissemin­ ation of dangerous diseases, such as typhoid, infantile diarrjioea, tuber­ culosis, cholera, an'd dysentery. From what has been said, it should be realized that measures should be TRY IT THE "SALA DA" WAYInfuse 6 heaping teaspoons of Sslsds Black Tea In a pint of fresh, boiling wster. After 6 minutes strain liquid into 2-quart container; while hot, add 11 to 1 % cupsof sugar and juice of 2 lemons, strained; Mir until sugar Is dissolved; fill containerwith cold water. Do not allow tea to cool before adding cold water or (quid will become cloudy. Serve with chipped Ice. The above makes 7 tall glasses. "S A L A M B E S S T E A taken to exclude the housefly from dwellings and prevent it from con­ taminating food. Clothes moths and carpet beetles cause substantial damage to materials cf animal origin, such as clothing, up­ holstered furniture, furs, and car­ pets. These insects are present in greatest numbers in spring and sum­ mer. Materials subject to attack sholud not be left undisturbed for long periods, particularly during the summer, in cupboards, attics, trunks, and other receptacles, unless precau­ tions are taken to protect them. Other unwelcome insect visitors found in dwellings are bedbugs, fleas, cockroaches, silverfish, and ants. Bedbug control not infrequently requires fumigation with a deadly gas, which should be used only by an experienced licensed operator. If the infestation is light, control may be obtained by spraying crevices and cracks in walls or other places where the bugs may be hiding. A useful spray may be made by adding eight fluid ounces of creosol to 1 gallon of water. The same mixture is useful for destroying fleas. Infestations of cockroaches, silverfish, and ants may be disposed of by dusting sodium fluoride in the places frequented by these insects, care being taken to keep domestic animals or children away from the powder which is poisonous. Full information on the destruct­ ion of insect pests may be obtained free of charge from the Division of Entomology, Dominion Department of Agri&lture, Ottawa. Not only do officer* of the Division of En­ tomology deal with problems relating to insect enemies destructive m homes, but they also investigate the lives and habits of insects which at­ tack farm, fruit, and vegetable crops, end products kept in store; in fact, all kinds of insects which attack commodities of value. ■* LAWN MOWERSSharpened and Repaired I can give you prompt ser­vice on this type of work.
