Thompson entertained relatives and friends numbering 35 from St. Thomas, London, Blenheim, Thamea- ford and Dorchester, a« their home on the second concession, on Thurs­ day evening last, it being the occas­ ion of their 20th wedding anniver­ sary. To the strains of the Wedding March played by Mrs. Walters, the bride and groom led the way to the dining room where dinner w» served at tabes which were pretMfy decor­ ated with bouqets ofjfpnng flowers and tall ctatdles iiyffieir silver hold­ ers. Mr. i^oy Hunter. brother of the bride, acted asXoastmaster, and ap­ propriate fehojg addresses were givenby Rev. w /j- Taylor, Mr. J. Car- rothere, Mr. E. L. Crockett and Mr. Gordon McCallum. Mr. Frank Rickard favored with vocal solos, accompan­ ied by Miss Helen Rickard, and a piano instrumental was rendered by Mrs. Walters. The remainder of the evening was spent in contests, Chinese checkers and cards. Mr. and Mrs. Thompson were recipients of many lovely gifts and also received a number of cards offering congratu­ lations on their anniversaiy. The first April meeting of the Ing-‘ erroll Town Council was held on Monday evening in the council chamber. Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray presided and all members were in attendance. The only communication was a request from the Public Lib­ rary Board that $300.00 be placed to their credit. This was granted’on motion of Councillors Morrison and Clark. Committee reports recommended payment of accounts. The Police Committee report also contained the recommendation that Wallace Phil­ lips be appointed special constable at a salary of $15.00 per year as re­ quested by the Ingersoll Board of Parks Management. On motion of Councillors Under­ wood and Bower, the Norsworthy Chapter, I.O.D.E., was granted per­ mission to hold a tag day on Satur­ day, April 27th, as per their request Considerable discussion ensued on the clauses of a by-law sponsored by Councillors Morrison and Clark to license automatic amusement games, automatic pin machines, automatic music boxes or any other similar iu- tematic device. The by-law set the fee at $100.00 for the first machine and $10.00 for each subsequent machine. As a result of the by-law’s passing it is not lawful for any per­ son to have a machine in his or her possession whether it is used or notwithout first securiiffc a license. The by-law became effective on „ ------ April 1st, and everyone desiring a'"penditure made on the roads, during license has to first make application to the town council for same and it is set out that no person shall trans- : fer a license. No person under the 1 age of eighteen years, may operate one of these machines and any lie- < ense holder permitting children un­ der that age to play the machines will be found guilty of breaking the law and will be subject to a penalty not exceeding $50.00 for the first offeree. The feeling was expressed that as the machines are now in operation in the town and that as they are not considered against the law it was only right‘that the town should lic­ ense them and derive some revenue for the corporation in the case of machines owned by others than town residents were causing money to be taken out of Ingersoll. Councillor Bower asked the ques­ tion, why should an age limit of eighteen be set, when the devices were not considered as gambling machines. He believed that the young people should be permitted to play them if they wished. It was pointed out that if an age limit were put in the by-law it would give the police power to stop young people operating the machines, as a few cases had come up where children had spent money on these machines when they were given the money to buy other things with by their paZ- enta./ u The by-law was finally passed in committee of the .whole with Council­ lor Clark in the chair, without any ^changes in the form in which it wax * originally pryented. Councillor George Preston enquir­ ed if any communications had been received as yet from the other mun­ icipalities regarding the holding of meeting in Woodstock to discuss the matter of approaching the Dom­ inion Nature' Gas Company in re­ gards to securing, reduced gas rates, for the towns and cities in this, dis­ trict Mayor Murray replied in the nega­ tive and Councillor Preston then sug­ gested that Ingersoll take action awK have the mayor call a meeting/^representatives from Woodstock, Galt, Preston, Paris and Brantford, to come here to, discuss the matter.

Across Canada next week liter­ ally thousands of men and women ■in all ,walks of life will prepare for one of the largest house to house canvasses ever made in the Dominion. Collectively they will be seeking $1,038,000 to help the Canadian Y.M.C.A. help the Can­ adian army, navy and air force win the war. During the course of their can­ vass they will be called upon to answer thousands of questions, from the simple query of some Mrs. Jones who wants to know "What is the Y.M.C.A. doing for my boy Arthur in camp at Aider­ shot?” to the practical question from a businessman, “What did the Y.M.C.A. accomplish in the last war?” To help canvassers answer these questions the War Services Com­ mittee of the Y.M.C.A. has pre­ pared a special booklet, written in question and answer form. While it is primarily a statement of plain facta, including official govern­ ment records and a complete audited statement, it nevertheless contains, behind the figures, some of thf drama of tho Great War story which is being repeated again today.

INSURANCE PATERSON’S TAXI a Pharmacy, 80 Thames St. ingenroll Kiwanis Club in the splen­ did work now being accomplished through the. society. The thanks of the gathering were extended to the speaker by Kiwanian Dr. C. A. Osborn. During the evening, the member* stood jn tribute to the memory of Jate ex-president Fred H. Adams, and sang a verse of the hymn, “Abide With Me.” Members of the Ingersoll Kiwanis , Club had the pleasure of hearing an outline of the work carried on in ] Oxford County by the Children’s Aid Society, when they were address­ ed at their regular meeting on Thurs­ day evening, by Richard G. Clowes, Ex-Mayor of Woodstock, who is now superintendent of the Children’s Aid Society for Oxford County. Part President Albert J. Kennedy occu­ pied the chair and the speaker was introduced by Kiwanian T. D. Mait­ land. Mr. Clowes (paid tribute to the work done by the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club in the interests of underprivil­ eged children in Ingersoll and dis­ trict and said that while, because of necessity, as little publicity was given as possible, there was never­ theless a great many accomplish­ ments that .were a real credit to the local organization. He mentioned that accidents had deprived many children of the rightful guiding hand of a parent. Public sympathy would for a time be with such cases, but this would not maintain life and a place in society for them. This was where the Children’s Aid Society did a great work. The speaker reminded his hearers that in the majority of their homes and the homes of many of their friends, children would no doubt have all that was good or needful for them in life. But in their varied program of help to underprivileged children, the Kiwanians must come in contact with many who needed assist­ ance in other ways and a little en­ couragement and guidance to' many others as time .went on. Mr. Clowes pointed to the great loss, removal of «ich a society would -be to the coun­ ty and added that this might not seem so to some, but it would un­ doubtedly prove to be the case if the society were suddenly to become abandoned and he mrpressed the hope that it would continue to be­ come more efficient. He felt that its officers were not aiming too high in its program of assistance to children, for there were many in’Oxford who had benefitted from help and guid­ ance given through its channels and he felt much more could yet be ac­ complished. The speaker went on to say that the Children’s Aid Society was not interested in taking away children from their rightful homes, but rather was trying to build up and maintain families. Some few cases where the morality of the homes or of persons in it is questionable, must be carefully treated, but children were not taken away because of lack of funds in any particular fam­ ily, he added. Mr. Clowes impressed on his hear­ ers the fact that it was not the nat­ ural resources, the material wealth alone, the industries of the country that were its assets, but its boys and girls, the future citizens, who must carry the load of responsibility for , the existence of the country after thoee present now have gone on. Here it was that the principle of “big brother” help was most worth while. He urged his hearers to choose , someone they might know of who (might at this very time, be straggling with a need for actual help, or who , might benefit greatly from a little , interest or a guiding hand at a cru­ cial moment in his life. “Believe me,” said the speaker, "such help given by any of you will net you a big kick.” In closing, the speaker told of the wious^ypes of .organizations under which the children were grouped by the Children’s Aid Society. There were at present 155 children in the protection group; 74 in the unmar­ ried parents act class; six in the shelter at the present time; 42 in boarding homes; 46 in free homes; 34 under adoption probation; 49 in in wages homes; three in mental In­ stitutions, and four in correcttorihl institutions. The very few cases men­ tioned in the latter two classes was most gratifying to the officials., Mr. Clowes ndHed that some 20 children were adopted permanently last year through the effort* of the Society. He said the society was interested, too, in the work of the juvenile de­ linquent*.

T R IBU N EW. R. VEALEProprietor and EditorPBONES—Tribune Office, 11 - Residence, &M— Memtar of —The Canadian Weekly Newspapers’ AMOclationTHURSDAY. APRIL 4th, 1940 Price Regulation of Farm Product* There has never been a time in history when prices were not interferred with to a certain extent, but at the present time the trend ia toward a greater de­ gree off regulation. Writing in the spring issue of the Quarterly Review of Commerce, published by the tauine-is students of the University qf Western On­ tario, G. E. Lattimer, Head of the Department of Agricultural Economies at Macdonald College, Que­ bec, gives a very comprehensive survey of the regu­ lation of prices in the agricultural field. He discusses the history of such regulation and the effect the war St- likely to have on the situation. Regulation takes various forms, Professor Lattimer potato out; direct and indirect. The most common direct method in providing goods on order, while the indirect method takas many forms among which are taxation, bonuses. quotas, tariffs, cartels, currency manipulations and so forth. Prior to the outbreak of the war, most regulation was aimed at keeping prices up, but the outbreak of hostilites has changed this and the present aim is to keep prices dqwn. At the pree- ent time, Professor Lattimer continues, prices are being regulated to insure a regular supply and the method used to accomplish this is generally the for­ ward contract. The regulation of farm prices during the thirties, although aimed at keeping prices up, met with, on the whole, very indifferent success. It resulted, moreover, in a great deal of unemployment. In Canada, during the early thirties, farm production was maintained and prices declined, while, on the other hand, the .prices of many other goods were maintained and production of these goods declined, re­ sulting in unemployment. Jt was absence of regula­ tion, •argues Professor Lattimer, which permitted farm' prices to fall. After the fall in prices about 1930, the whole world turned to stricter regulation of farm products with a view to keeping prices up, by means of quotas, cartels, destroying surpluses and so on. Canada re­ mained freer from this than any other country. The outbreak of the war, however, switched attention to the setting of maximum rather than minimum prices. There is little danger of the voldme of business in food products being lessened greatly by regulation. Professor Lattimer thinks, because of the absolute need for a certain amount of food. Regulation might, in the long run, secure cheaper costs of production by eliminating wide swings in prices and production. Estimate of Coat Fast Year of Warla >500,000,000War eo*t to Canada, in the coming fiscal year Isestimated at >500.000,000 Thia la nearly three timesthe expenditure in the fieri year of the tari war.Canada’s military contr ibution in the war of 1914-18was largely one of men. Now the contribution ia eneat men phis machine*, and the machine heavily in­creases the cost. Here are a few cost comparisons with ths last war: An army division costs about twice as much. This is due to mechanised equipment. At this stage of the last war, Canada’s naval equip­ ment and personnel consisted of two light cruisers and 1500 men. In the-frrt full fiscal year, the Naval Service spent less than >4,000,000. The Naval Service now has a personnel of 6,000 officers and men. Its strength ri six destroyer* and a flotilla leader with five naval mine-sweepers and 20 auxiliary cruft. Estimated cost for the first fiscal year ia >40^000,000. The building programme calls for the construction of 90 vessels totalling nearly >50,000,000. In the first year of the last war, Canada had no Air Force. The Royal Canadian Air Force now com­ prises 8,000 officers and men. This does not include the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan. Estim­ ates of Canada’s share in the plan, up to September 1st next are >50,000,000. During the full fiscal year ending March 31, 1941, it is estimated Canada will spend approximately $100,000,000 on the Common­ wealth scheme. This sum is part of the estimated total cost of >500,000,000.

LLOYD - Manager Ingersoll Branch - Manager Woodstock Branch * Anticosti In the dying minutes of the day, before we follow the trail upstairs to the land of nod, and when the fire is burning low, our thoughts wander. We wonder sometimes if an enemy submarine or a bombing air craft will try to escape the .watchful eyes of our brave sailors or the skilful boys who are patrolling the* air, and attempt to come up the St. Lawrence. Dur­ ing the Great War enemy submarine* arrived on this side of the Atlantic and did damage. And we remember that two or three years ago an enemy plan to have some of their nationals secure possession of the Island of Anticosti was thwarted. Anticosti is a great strategic island, of which we do not hear very much. It is a huge island, roughly oval in shape, lying between the Gaspe Peninsula and the mainland to the north of the Gulf. It is 122 miles long, its greatest breadth 30 miles, and thg area is over 3,000 square miles. It da about one-third larger than the much better known Prince Edward Island further down the Gulf. Indeed we know very little about Anticosti. Histor­ ians pass it over lightly. Why we know so little about it is probably because for many years it twas privately owned. It was the private sporting preserve of the Menier family, often referred to as the Chocolate Kings of France, who secured possession in 1895. It was probably the largest private holding in North America. Long before that, however, in the 1600’s, it war the seig­ niory of Louis Jolliet. After his death about the year 1700, the island frequently changed ownership. It is now owned by pulpwood interests. The origin of the name is difficult to trace. Cartier called it De de 1'Aasumption in 1534. Early histor­ ians and explorers call it Natiskotek, a Montagnais Indian word which means “where bears are hunted.” Bears are still so common that they are regarded as a pest. The name Anticosti is attributed to a Spanish ecclesiastic, and derived from two Spanish words,ante meaning before and costa,/meaning the coast. Many folk will regret that the fine old Indian name has disappeared officially. Perhaps one day it .will be brought back. One of the troubles which prevented an exclusive development of the island is the absence of many good harbour?. - Ellis Bay, now known as Port Menier, is the nearest approach to « sheltered harbour. Admiral Bayfield, the famous British naval officer who chartered the waters of the Gulf was in Anti­ costi in 1828, and describes his visit to the scene of a marine tragedy near the east end of the island. He discovered a . small hut containing the remains of a shipwrecked crew a£d the evidences of cannibalism. "There was,” he writes in his journal, “a pot in the - fireptace with human flesh in it, and some pieces in a large chest. I saw a species at almanac on the wall in chaflc." A solo by Mrs. H. Cline was given at the A. Y. P. A. of St. James’ Church on Monday night. Miss Ledgley gave a reading. The president, C. W. Riley occupied the chair.

In a spirit of optimism, the Royal Winter Fair held at Toronto, is now preparing to carry on again this year. The holding of the Fair of course wBl be con­ tingent on what arrangements can be made with the Department of National Defence for the use of build­ ings at the Canadian National Exhibition. But Inas­ much aa the Canadian National Exhibition has arranged!, to have all buildings cleared of troops for their August show, there seems to be a good chance -for the Winter Fair to make the asms arrangement.

Toronto, April 5-The annual diph­ theria prevention campaign of the Health League of Canada will be launched throughout Ontario during the week of April 7-13th, it was an­ nounced today by Dr. Gordon Bates, Director. “Toxoid Week,” the name given to the campaign, has been con­ fined to Toronto since 1929, but dur­ ing the past few years efforts have been made to spread the educational campaign throughout Ontario. In many parts of Ontario, Medical Of­ ficers of Health are urging parents to have their children immunized against diphtheria. Toxoid hap been in use in a large number of Ontario cities and towns for several years, and amazing re­ sults have been achieved. In several large centres, medical authorities have claimed “No deaths from diph­ theria," as a result of the widespread use of Toxoid. Some cities with pro­ gressive public health departments boast of “No deaths fropi diphtheria for 10 years.” In Toronto, through active co-oper­ ation with the Board of Health, the Public Schools and the Seperate School Board, the number of diph­ theria cases has dropped from 1,022 in 1929, to 26 in 1938, and seven in 1939. Two deaths from diphtheria occurred in Toronto In 1938 and one in 1939. In all these cases death could have been prevented through the use of Toxoid. Death toll in Ontario from diph­ theria 10 years ago was 262. In 1987 th* .number of deaths throughout the whole of Canada was 369. In 1937, 30 deaths from diphtheria occurred in Ontario. In 1938 the number dropped to 12. Last year there were 7. As diphtheria is especially fatal to children between six months and six years of age, emphasis is placed by the Health League of Canada on watching the pre-school children. One method used in the Toronto campaign is to reach a large per­ centage of the parents, of younger children through bending a message home through the pupils at school. “Death through diphtheria can be prevented,” Dr. Gordon Bates, Gen­ eral Director of the Health League of Canada, said today, “Life is im­ portant enough in peace-time, but in war-time it is doubly important- Canada enn make a gnat contribu­ tion toward winning the war by keeping its people healthy.” Dr. Batea urged Medical Officers Good News For Travellers Good news for travellers is found in this week’s announcement of Grey­ hound Lines that sweeping reduct­ ions in fares have been made to al­ most all United States points eaat of Chicago and St. Louis. This is in keeping .with the Greyhound policy of providing first class transporta­ tion at the lowest possible cost. In addition tn regular Greyhound trips, these new low fares will also apply to special trips to the New York World’s Fair and all other all-ex­ pense tours. With their new streamlined super coaches, equipped with the latest improvements including air condi­ tioning, the Greyhound Lines always offer the most interesting method of travel. Depots are always right downtown, close to stores, theatres and other centres of general interest. All routes.are scenic ones, and as a con­ sequence passengers find every mile of their trip a more pleasant one. LITTLE CHATS — on — FARM MANAGEMENT DAIRY FARM LABOUR Labour cost is the largest single itenj of expense in dairy farming, from 20 to 30 per cent of the copt of producing is involved in labour. Not only does the laboftr amount of a considerable sum but it is also one of the. recognized economic factors to be considered in the production of any commodity. In order to make progress in farm management it becomes necessary to have some easily calculated standard by which labour efficiency may be measured. Standards of measurement in thisconnection are gradual^- being de­ veloped for dairy farmers through the Ontario Dairy Farm Management Study. This investigation ia being conducted co-operatively by the Ec­ onomies Division, Marketing Service, Dominion Department of Agricul­ ture, pttawa, and the Ontario Agri- culturak-jCollege, Guelph. More than 700 da Ir ^farmers of the Province of Ontario '’ire keeping records .of their compete farm btudnen. These records are Specked at the farm and taken to Ottib.a for analysis. Two yearn Bf study indicate that the ouh reeefota of a farm business par man provides a useful standard of measurement of labour efficiency in dairy farming^ To obtain this the total labour time of all farm workers is reduced to a “man equivalent.” The term “man equivalent" means the labour of one man working full time for 12 months on the farm. Members of the family working for part of the day only or doing less than an'adult’s (work, and seasonal and occasional help are reckoned pro­ portionately. The cash receipts in­ clude all cash sales of the farm bus­ iness. A farm with cash receipts of $2,800, and a “man equivalent” of 1% would have a cash receipt per man of >1,600. It was found in the Study that in all the fluid and processed milk zones, under conditions similar to the year ending April 30, 1938, the average dairyman needs to secure $1,500 cash receipts per man to se­ cure operator earnings approximat­ ing $1,200. Operator earnings close to-$1,000 Were obtained where the cash receipts per man were $1,300 and where the xash receipts per man fell as $800 the operator earnings were discouraging. Though it was found that the most successful dairymen use the greatest amount of labour, not all dairymen, however, should take on a large labour staff. Those dairy farm oper­ ators who .have the ability to man­ age labour in such a way’as to se­ cure a high cash receipt per maa may well be>encouraged to use more labour.

St. E. - Opp. Library PHONE 165 The regular monthly meeting ofthe Lady Dufferin Chapter, I.O.D.E., w u held at the home of Mra. E. A. Wilaon, with a large attendance of members present. A number of knit­ ted articles were completed and an other shipment will be sent to the sailors at an early date. It was de­ cided to knit during the Spring for the Red Crom. Mrs. C. K Long gave a splendid report of the contents of the ship­ ment made for Finnish Relief, don­ ations from local businessmen a* well as from others who were in­ terested and anxious to help in this work, were much appreciated. Sweaters, Sox, scarves, blankets, underwear and a well chosen lot of wearing apparel, made this donation one to be proud of. Plans were made to assist in the local Tag Day for the Canadian In­ stitute for the Blind and some very handsome leather belts, made here under direction of the Institute, were shown and orders taken for delivery later in the season. Mrs. Arnold Branch gave a very’ interesting talk about one of the I newer I.O.D.E. Chapters in Montreal, * ter, _ whose membership is composed of ‘doctor’s wives.

Long, was chosen to act as delegate to the On­ tario Provincial meeting in Hamilton this month. At the annual dinner the speaker will be Capt. Cavell, and his subject, “The Empire at War.” For the study period, Mrs. Long gave a most interesting and inform­ ative address on the “People of Fin­ land," tracing the history of the first settlers in what was at that time, Western Russia, to the present day. In the comparatively short time in which Finland has been a free dem­ ocracy, the advancement of its people and customs has been unpar­ alleled in modern history and its ed­ ucation system under government control provides complete technical or university training to all who desire it. At the close of the meeting a so­ cial hour was enjoyed, the assisting hostesses being Mrs. C. K. fjbng, Mrs. M. Walton and Miss McKellar. The May meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. R. A.

The distinguishing feature* of true sponge and angel food cake* are that they contain no shortening and no baking powder. They are leavened solely by air beaten into the eggs. Mock sponge cake can bo made how­ ever, with baking powder and fewer eggs but now that the price of eggs is lower, we suggest that the home­ maker try her hand at the real thing. The points to remember in making a sponge cake are to use the finest and lightest flour on the market and to sift it sevenfl time to incorporate as , much air as possible, to beat egg | whites until they are stiff enough to hold up in peaks but not dry, use fine sugar only and in eonbining the ingredients, employ only the folding motion and fold only enough to mix Ingredients.

He attend­ ed school at Culloden and later bis parents resided for a time at Grand Valley and Markdale. The family came to Ingersoll in 1904 and Dolph Staples, as he was known to all. started in to work with the late R. A. Skinner in his livery stable. He learned the undertaking business with George and L. Walker, and was employed following that with the late R. A. Skinner and F. W. Keeler in the MacIntyre Housefurnishing Company. During the war of 1914- 1918 he worked as a munitions in­ spector and when the war ended he purchased a Ford car and entered the taxi business, in which he continued until about a year ago. He was also examiner for driver*’ permits for the Ingeraoll district, for the past twelve years. No one was better known as a manager of a baseball team in Wes­ tern Ontario than Dolph Staples. He made friends with both players and officials where ever he went. For many yeans he managed the local team and piloted it to numerous group championships. His Ingersoll “A” team lost out in the Intercounty finals in 1929 to Galt, but won out the following year and continued to the Ontario Championship, winning the Spaulding Trophy. His intermed­ iate "B” entry captured the Inter­ county championship in 1936 and 1937 and the latter year also took the Provincial Title and the Toronto Evening Telegram Challenge Trpphy. Las? year 'because of his illness, Ing­ ersoll was without a Junior or Inter­ mediate entry in the O.B.A.A., for the first time in over fifteen years. He was the oldest manager in the Intercounty League, both from a point of age and years of service when he retired last year. He was always ready to help the Intercounty League and his advice and experi­ ence was always sought after by the league officials by whom he was highly esteemed. In fact he was so well known where ever baseball was played, that one could not accompany him to any game, where there was not someone who could call him by name, stated an Intercounty League official when-speaking to The Tri­ bune. ' He had been an invalid for practic­ ally the post year, residing at the home of his brother, John A. Staples, 114 Charles street east, until his condition became grave and he was taken to Alexandra Hospital oh Fri­ day afternoon. Mr. Staples was unmarried. Sur­ viving to mourn his passing are five sisters and one brother as follows: Mrs. Merrit Lovell. Fergus; Mrs. Rob­ ert Loughecd, Grand Valley; Mrs. Thomas Sandick, Cherry street, Ing­ ersoll; Mrs. John McTavish, Sea­ forth; Miss Celethe Staples, Reg. N., on the staff of the Stratford General Hospital, and-John A. Staples, Ing- ersolL The funeral was held from the Preston T. Walker Funeral Home, King street west, on Wednesday afternoon. Despite the inclement weather, there was a very large at­ tendance of relatives and friends and a most impressive service was conducted at 2.30 o’clock, by Rev. Charles D. Daniel, minister of Trin­ ity United Church. Many former members of the teams which Mr. Staples had managed along with club officials and representatives of sport organizations throughout Western Ontario gathered to pay their last respects to one who was always very highly regarded for his sportsman­ ship. A great many beautiful floral tributes iwere further indication of the high esteem in which deceased was held. < Temporary entombment was made in the Ingeraoll Mausoleum, with in­ terment later in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery.

Faced with the possibility of an entire shut-down in apple exporta to Great Britain next fall and winter, which would leave an extra six mil­ lion bushels to be consumed in Can­ ada, the Ontario Apple Growers' Association meeting in Toronto have recommended every effort to reduce production costa this year. It ■was pointed out that every ap­ plication recommended in the Ontario spray calendar is essential and that if one or more were omitted, much of lhe benefit of previous sprays would be lost For example, there would not be much sense in produ­ cing wormy apples free from scab or scabby apples free from worms. The directors of the Apple Grow­ ers* Association, advise the use of the cheapest effective spray materials and advise close study of the two main spray schedules recommended in the Ontario spray calendar copies of .which may be obtained from Agri­ cultural Representatives or by writ- i;xg direct to the Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto. The Bordeaux-Lime Sulphur sched­ ule cost* about one-third leas as far as materials are concerned and is very effective, but not quite as safe as the non-cawrtic spiny schedule which under normal conditions is to be preferred. If weather conditions make it pos­ sible, the delayed dormant and pre­ pink sprays could be merged. This can often be done in orchards where it is not necessary to spray for San Jose scale. The directors also recommended the elimination of undesirable var­ ieties and old trees from all orchards, particularly in districts heavily in­ fested with codling moth They also discouraged the planting of apple trees in tender fruit districts because of the high cost of codling moth control in such sections.

Limited VANCOUVER CALGARY WINNIPEG TORONTO MONTRFAl A War-Time Risk There are many risks in the busi­ ness of farming, some avoidable, and others unavoidable states the Agri­ cultural Supplies Board, and observes there is one very dangerous risk that can be avoided very oasiiy—that of being insufficiently informed in deal­ ing with your production problems. For years agricultural scientists and experimentalists have been at work in laboratory, bar, and field. Their object has been to supply the farmer with practical, complete and up-to- the-minute information on the best practices in crop and animal pro­ duction and the prevention-of losses through pests and diseases. With the benefit of accumulated knowledge and the added incentive of war-time production requirements, these men are working, more industriously than ever, if possible, in their efforts to assist and serve the producer. Partial information is just as dangerous in farming as in any other business—«uch risk may be avoided by utilizing advice and information readily available from Provincial and Dominion sources, dealing with prac­ tically every phase of the business of farming. Winter does not prevent the preparation of a good seed-bed of information. Inquiries for further in­ formation should be directed to the nearest Dominion Experimental Farm or Station, Agricultural Col­ lege, Provincial or Dominion Depart­ ment of Agricultu**.

The ninth meeting of the SeniorMusic Club w u held on Wednesdayevening at the home of Mr. and Mr*. H. K. Edward, Canterbury street The special guests of the evening were the husbands of the members. The meeting opened with the singing of “0 Canada.” The president, Mm. H. G. Furlong, in a few apUy- choeen words, cordially welcomed the many guests and expressed the hope that this unique occasion would re­ sult in a closer understanding of the Club’s activities. Dr. H. G. Furlong then presided for the programme which was provided by the men. Dr. L. W. Staples gave an Interest­ ing reading on French-Canadian Melodies. The subject of characteris­ tic national songs is always intrig­ uing and French-Canadian history is particularly colorful. The close blending of French and Scottish mel­ odies dating back several centuries forms a group of charming songs with an antigue Old World flavor. Several dramatic native songs of labor and fun and tenderness were described. The reading closed with, an appropriate quotation from Sir George Cartier, writer of “0 Can­ ada.” The opening piano numbers were given with the distinguished quality of tone required in these composi­ tions. The Raindrop Prelude is excel­ lent programme music, realistic in that it imitates the never-ceasing beating of the rain against the win­ dowpanes and impreasionistic m that the ceaselessly re-iterated tones sug­ gest a mood of sadness and medita­ tion. The vocal duet following was of special appeal and much enjoyed. The piano numbers of Moekownki and Gottschalk, were brilliantly exe­ cuted, receiving much aplause. Sev­ eral groups of vocal solos were sung with distinctive inteipretation. The pleasing contrasts showed careful thought in the choice of songs. In the violin selections, the deeply-mov­ ing “Air”, by Bach, composed for the sonorous “G”-string was later followed by Boccherini's gay and sprightly "Minuet”,. possibly the the most celebrated minuet ever written and which made the name of Boccherini famous in the musical world. “Il Trvvatore”, played as a piano duet, was captivating. /Its beautiful melodies, its forceful rythmic patterns were played with fascinating abandon. Mrs. E. J. Chisholm and Mrs. G. D. Beck on behalf of the club, voiced appreciation for the very splendid program. Dr. Furlong expressed his pleasure on being present and hoped there would ibe other such happy occasions. On behalf of'the guests, he thanked the club for the invita­ tion. A pleasant social time followed. Assisting, the hostess with refresh­ ments were Mrs. E. Bartley, Mrs. R. Folden, Mrs. W. J. Tunc, kin. R. El­ ford, Mrs. L. W. Staples and Mn. F. C. Elliott.

Many whose work calls them totravel the roads daily, were more ^hen pleased to see the snow disap­pearing so rapidly on Friday, follow­ing the previous week of daily drift­ing snow which made many of the roads impassable during the week­end. The milk truckers had great dif­ ficulty in getting their daily supplyto the various dairies and often Hadto go many miles out of their ordin­ary routes to make the trip at all.The mail couriers also had great dif­ficulty, trying to get the daily maildelivered to its respectful owners. One of the local mail route men hiton a good plan/ to distribute hisshare, taking it on a hand sleigh orwith one of the patrons to the cheese factory, which was about the centreof his route, and there he handed thepatrons their mail when they arrived.The head routes were also out of schedule as it was impossible to getthrough many of the roads. Thereare quite a number yet of the con­ cession' not open for motor traffic.The A. Y. P.

Some Essential*Brooding ChicksThe normal profitable egg-producir< life of the farm hen is *o shortthat, if the firmer is to maintain hisflock on a sound economical basis, ha.to faced with the necessity of re­placing a large number of his birdseach year, says W. T. Scott, HeadPoultryman, Dominion Experimental Station, Harrow, Ont. If his usual practice ia to buy baby chicks from a hatchery and brood them himself, the poultryman mu* provide good brooding conditions, in order to de­ velop the clucks into profitable laying stock. Stunted chides and a high mortality may be the result of poor brooding and the loss cannot be re­ placed entirely. Late replacements are responsible for delayed maturity, small eggs, and low production in fall and winter when prices are at their peak. * As it is a bad practice to mix chicks of different ages, and as the brooders are available for more than two hatches only undef very favor­ able weather conditions, sufficient equipment should be provided to ac­ commodate at least half, if not all, of the chicks without crowding. The early hatches require the bropder heat for seven or eight weeks, and the temptation to make room for the second hatch by depriving the first of the heated brooder before they are comfortably feathered is dangerous. A sudden drop in temperature will re­ sult in chilling, followed by pneu­ monia and a high death toll. The utmost care and the absolute elaborate equipment will not raise vigorous, profitable chicks that have inherited poor vitality or susceptibil­ ity to disease. Nor can those chicks that have mot reverses in the brood­ ing stage be raised profitably. The essential* that insure success are good stock, good dry draught-free houses, reliable heating, clean litter, and sufficient “waste proof” feed hoppers to .provide room for at least seventy-five per cent of the total chicks to feed at one time. With a temperature of 95 to 100 degrees at the edge of the hover, a good chick starter mash always before them, clean water to drink, a hopper of grit and some succulent green feed, there should be no difficulty in brooding the baby chicks satisfac­ torily. ♦They Make Delicious TeaSALADA* TEA BAGS Clean Seed Bed Best Insurance For Crops The use of clean, well graded seed is one of the best forms of crop in­ surance, states R. A. Derick, Cereal Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. The fanning mill, which was onee referred to as the farmers'“plant breeder,” helps to maintain | the high quality of a crop as well a» to offer a means of keeping weeds down to a minimum. The work done ! by a fanning mill is threefold. First, the dirt and trash is removed by the upper or scalping sieve. Second, the “wind blast” gets rid of chaff and light, poorly-developed kernels. Third, the small seeds such as pin oats, shrivelled grain, and weed seeds are separated by the lower sieve. The power cleaning- plants which are so well distributed throughout the grain growing areas are usually equipped with modem machines which not only remove foreign mat­ ter, small inferior seeds and weed seeds, but also giade the sample ac­ cording to size and separate different kinds of grain. None of the cereal crops requires cleaning and grading So much as oata which contain large numbers of small kernels known as , pin oate, and many light poorly filled grains in unfavourable seasons. Off-coloured grain, which may give the appearance of being unsuitable for seed, may often be cleaned and graded into an excellent seed sample. It is sometimes better economy to clean up a poorly coloured sample of home-grown grain/than to pur­ chase seed elsewhere. There is al­ ways the danger of introducing other varieties as well as weed ;strangers when seed is brought in j from another source, unless it is reg- i istered or certified aa to grade and variety. The preparation of seed for spring sowing should not be delayed, for with the usual rush of spring work, the job of cleaning seed may be left undone. APRIL SHOPPING DAYS ....
