ALEX. G. WILSON NOW
OPERATING FORMER
BIGHAM'S DAIRY
Alex. C. Wilson, since 1936 Sales
Manager of the City Dairy, Toronto,
took over the Bigham Dairy here on
April 1st, and is now operating it
under the name of Witeon’s Dairy.
He has associated with him in the
business, his three sons, Thomas,
James and Douglas, the former hav
ing come here this week from the
Walkerside Dairy at Windsor.
Mr. Wilson, who is a native of
Dumfries, Scotland, is no stranger to
many in Ingersoll, having visited
here on numerous occasions. His
family have also spent part of their
vacation in Ingersoll each summer
with relatives, for the past twenty
years. He came to Canada in 1913
and has been associated with the
dairy industry since that time. His
first position was with the; Essex
Farm Dairy, operated by the Walker
family, founders of the former town
of Walkerville. He remained contin
uously with that concern and at the
time the Walkerside Dairy was pur
chased by the Borden Company he
was vice-president and sales man
ager. Mr. Wilson continued his asso
ciations in the management of Wal
kerside Dairy with Borden Company
until 1936, when he was transferred
to Toronto as sales manager of the
City Dairy, the largest dairy in
Canada.
Upon learning that the Bigham
Dairy was for sale, and having a de
sire to make his home in Ingersoll,
Mr. Wilson made a bid and was suc
cessful in purchasing the business.
Mr. Wilson in speaking with The
Tribune stated he plans a number
of changes and with the assistance
of his sons and the present staff he
will endeavor to make Wilson’s Dairy
one of the model plants in the prov
ince, exercising every possible care
to provide the latest methods of sani
tation and cleanliness in the hand
ling of quality dairy products.
A dairy bar*is being operated at
the plant and delivery service of dairy
products will be made to all parts
of the town at any time in response
to telephone calls.

Ingersoll “Y” Girls
Ontario “Y" Champions
The Ingersoll “Y” girls are again
Ontario “Y" cage champions. Win
ning the third and deciding game in
this year’s final serie*, in a game
played Tuesday night in Galt on the
home floor of the eastern aection
winners, the locals annexed the title
by two games to oqe. The game score
was 17-14, and if points on the round
had counted, the Ingersoll squad
would have been ahead by a mere
point, as on the three games, the
first one played here last week, Ing
ersoll’s total score being 60 to Galt
“Y’s”’ 65. It was the best fought the
league has ever witnessed, and there
was little to choose between the two
teams, the locals’ experience, how
ever, serving them well.
Ingersoll is to be congratulated on
having this team both from the point
of view of their ability, and their
display of sportsmanship. The girls
are to be congratulated on their
showing in the face of many difficul
ties. They may be able to arrange a
Toronto game to wind up their sea
son.

A More Beautiful Canada
The old &:iying that a home is not a home until ft
is planted iS true to-day as ever. Every un plan ted
hocne in Canada ean be made more attractive by the
judicious use of trees, shrubs, vines, flowers and a
well-kept lawn.
We are influenced by our surroundings to a
greater degree than we sometimes realise. Children
are particularly sensitive in this regard. Surely a
home in and around which flowers are grown » a
better place to bring up cmldren than a home where
no attention is paid to these friends of the plant
kingdom. If children are taught to love flowers and
become familiar with them they will be filled with
love for these things and there will be less room in
their hearts and minds for the things that hurt and
destroy.
Canada is a kind of rare natural beauty fn m the
Bras de’ Or Lakes in Cape Breton Island to the
Mountain Ranges of the Pacific Coast. Nature ha#
endowed this country with the most beautiffil and
the greatest variety of natural scenic grandeur to be
found anywhere in the universe, mountains, lakes,
streams, forests, plains, waterfalls, all are to be
found in great abundance. The things which are
unsightly and unlovely are made by man and it would
seem that the least we can do is to make these man
made places sufficiently attractive that they will, in
some measure at least, be in keeping with the great
natural beauty to be found throughout this great
Dominion.
There are many good reasons why every house
holder, rural or urban, should do his or her part
toward making the home surroundings more attractive.
In the first place, the money spent for nursery stock
or other planting material is a good investment and
will increase the value of a home to a much greater
extent than the amount spent for planting material.
Further, in the full and satisfactory life there must
be found time for both mental and physical relaxa
tion and where can one find a more satisfactory place
to get away from war-time stress and strain than
among the flowers of the garden.
Another reason for putting forth a special effort
m home beautification work just now is to make Can
ada more attractive to tourists. The tourist trade
from the United States is very important to Canada
a the present time and anything that can be done to
help increase it will be a benefit to the Dominion as
a whole.
We frequently meet with the objection that gardens
and flowers cost too much or that they take too
much time. The truth is that it is not so much a mat

“Take Care of The Pennies”
One little item buried in this week’s news appears
as a striking commentary on the trend of present day
business in Canada, and the need for the most critical
care in its management. That item showed that a
large Canadian company achieved a net income of
about five million dollars on its petroleum sales during
1939. And the intriguing information which accom
panied the announcement was this—the net profit on
the sale of every gallon was only 53/100ths of a cent
Put it another way, this concern had to sell nearly
a billion gallons of petroleum products to make this
net profit of five millions.
The significant point of the news for Canadian
taxpayers is the eye-opening fact that the cost of
producing and marketing this company’s goods had
only to rise over half a cent a gallon, to leave a loss
for the year instead of a profit.
The moral, of course, is obvious. Whereas some
50,000 Canadian taxpayers are shareholders in this
company, every taxpayer is a shareholder in the gov
ernments of Canada, which are carrying dn big busi
ness on a scale a thousand times larger.
If then, this larger business of ours is to get back
on the right side'of the ledger, there must be scrupu
lous care in watching costs.
With war charges mounting against the Dominionin sobering totals, ft is'high time all governments, do
minion, provincial and municipal, learned anew the
old homely motto, “Tafte care of the pennies and the
dollars will take care of themselves."
Wood Ash For Fertilizer
A few days ago we had some valuable information
from the chemists of the Department of Agriculture
about fertilizers, a subject that is of vast importance
at this time when so many plans are being made
to speed up production to meet the exigencies
of war. ifere ts some more that may be helpful before
the winter's ashes are otherwise disposed t>f.
Approximately 10,000,000 cords of fuel are cut
and burned in Canada every year, and a great deal
of the ashes are thrown away, although they havea definite agricultural value es fertilizer.
At the outbreak of war in September, 1939, the
prospect for adequate potash . aupp'iy for fertilizer
purposes was none too encouraging as it was thought"
that European supplies would-he cut off, and United
States production was not supplying Canada to any
great extent. However, the situation in this respect
has since changed very, much, the prospect now being
good for a continued and ample supply.
The production of potash in the United States has
been stepped up to a point believed to be sufficient,
to meet the requirements of the North American con
tinent, and, in addition to this, production interests in
France have announced that an ample supply to Canada for this year la awured. As a matter of fact,
large quantities of French potash are now In Canada,
no that any fear of potash shortage in the immediate
future would appear unwarranted, and farmers may
continue to buy their potash requirements for fertil
iser purposes as before the war.

A S. RENNIE, HP.
BIG EIGHT SPEAKER
Oxford's Member in the House
of Commons Gave Talk on
Points of Historical Interest
That Hava Been Preserved
Throughout Canada
Despite most unfavorable weather
conditions, the open meeting of the
the Big Eight Society held in the L
O. O. F. Hall on Wednesday evening,
April 17th was very largely attended.
The guest speaker woo Mr. A. S.
Rennie of Tillson burg, who was re
cently re-elected as member for Ox
ford in the House of Commons. Mr.
Rennie was accompanied to Inger
soll by Mrs. Rennie, and there were
many ladies present to welcome her.
President S. A. Gibson acted as
chairman of the evening and ex
tended a most cordial welcome to
the members and visitors. A splen
did entertainment was provided pre
vious to the address of the guest
speaker, by Prof. J. Everett Meyers
of London, his daughter and another
assistant. This program of sleight-
of-hand and mystic magic greatly
delighted everyone present.
Mr. C. H. Sumner, honorary presi
dent of the Big Eight Society, intro
duced Mr. Rennie. He said, “Oxford’s
member of parliament has won his
way to the hearts of the people he
represents because of his true under
standing of human values and his
courteous and friendly manner.
Mr. Rennie expressed his delight
at having an invitation to attend a
meeting sponsored by the Big Eight,
and, congratulated the members on
the work they had done in the past
to help make things better in the
town of Ingersoll. He announced his
subject as "Stories in Stone,” and
said that under this heading he wish
ed to merely draw the attention of
his audience to some of the deeds of
those men who were associated with
the early life of our country, now
written in bold type on the pages of
the History of Canada.
He explained that several years
ago a board had been set up by the
Federal Department of the Interior
to look over the thousand or more
sites throughout the Dominion that
were of historical interest in the
building of Canada. Of these sites
about three hundred had been chos
en, and the'department has been en
deavoring to rebuild the selected
sites to make them as nearly as pos
sible like they were originally so
that they will be marked for the
future generations to call to mind the
important points of history in con
nection with the building of this
great Dominion.
The speaker described visits to
several of the places that had already
been marked, in the Maritime Prov
inces, Quebec and Ontario, and
called particular attention to things
that might be noted at Parliament
Hill in Ottawa, including the monu
ments in front of the Houses of
Parliament and the great Peace
Tower, whose walls stands four
square to the winds of heaven.
“There is the heart of Canada,”
said Mr. Rennie, “it embodies the
spirit of the Canadian people.” The
preservation of these historic sites
portrays a feeling of one generation
for the sacrifices that have been
made by those who have passed on,
and will portray to those who come
after us these important settings.
A brief description of the new
National War Memorial at Ottawa
that was unveiled last year by the
King and Queen and the great Can
adian Memorial at Vimy Ridge, was
given by Mr. Rennie who’ also re
lated the story of the opening of the
bridge that spans the St. Lawrence,
across the Thousand Islands and
joins Canada and the United States.
This joins up one third of the popu
lation of Canada and one quarter of
the population of the United States,
who are resident within a fadius of
three hundred miles, said the
speaker.
In conclusion, Mr. Rennie express
ed the opinion that despite the cost
it was a worth while thing to rebuild
some of the old historical points of
interest so that the younger genera
tion may sed what the pioneers had
accomplished. "Monuments,” ho rcid,
"are erected to the memory of the
sacrifices made by great men in the
interests of the people, and declared
Canada is playing her part to-day to
cherish the memory of those who
have played their part in the past
years for their country. Canada is
calling for big men who will! put self
to one side, men who are prepared to
make their contribution to help the
mother country prosecute the war
so that peace may be restored once
again for all.”
Joseph M._ Wilson moved a vote of
.thanks to the speaker for his kind-
neas in coming to Ingersoll and for
his very fine talk. This was seconded
by J. Ferris David.
"Now, Willie, you must not be
selfiA. You should let your brother
have the sled half the time,
"Yqs, mother,” replied the lad, "I
do. I have it going down the hill and
he has it coming up.”
Jones—“Wtut’o young Arthur
doing now?”
Brown—Riding about all day with
his pockets full of money.”
Jones—“Has he come into a for
tune?”
Brown—"No, he’s a bus con
ductor.”
Wife’ ( to husband inquiring what
she thought of his speech)—“You
didn't make the most of your oppor
tunities.”
Husband—“What opportunities?'’
Wife—“Why, the opportunities
you had of sitting down.
Form Master—“There are direct
and indirect taxes. Give me an ex
ample of indirect taxation.”
Pupil—"The dog tax, sir.*'
Master—“How is that?”
Pupil—“The dog doej not have to
pay"

FOR WAR SERVICES
A NATIONAL EMERGENCY
TODAY, in Camps, Barracks, and on ships ... in Canada and overseas . . . thousands of
Canadian boys,41re facing the grim realities of War.
To maintain their MORALE, is essential to Victory.
Just before his death, the late Lord Tweedsmuir, himself a life-long member of the Y.M.C.A.,
wrote:—/nn the last war, it (the Y.M.C.A.), was an organization of inestimable value to the fighting forces, and played no small part in keeping up the health and morale of our men. Now itsservice^ will be more in demand than ever.”
On April 11th, Lord Athlone, Canada’s Governor-General elect, cabled this message, his first toany,group in Canada since his appointment:—“As President of the Y.M.C.A. War Emergency Committee for England, wish you (Canadian Y.MC.A.) all success in your appeal.”
T H E "Y " I N A C T IO N
/ Immediately following the outbreak of war, the Canadian Y.M.C.A. offered its services to thef Government. Even before the Government could acknowledge its grateful acceptance of the offer,
the “Y” had swung into action from coast to coast.
44 “Y” Buildings throughout Canada were thrown open to troops in training for baths, swim
ming, physical training, and general instruction . . . The aggregate attendance at Feb. 29th hadreached an impressive total equivalent to 918,177 soldiers, sailors and airmen.
25 Red Triangle Huts or centres were opened where troops were concentrated. Entertain
ment was provided, free literature, games and stationery provided, canteens qet up, informaleducation work organized and hundreds of voluntary workers enlisted to carry forward thisservice.
To England with the first Canadian Contingent went six “Y” secretaries to study the requirements in England and France and lay the foundation for work overseas.
The Canadian Y.M.C.A. has been appointed to finance the operations and conduct the pro
grammes of the new Beaver Club, Canadian Leave Centre in London.
When the Canadians go to the Battle areas, the “Y” will be with them—as in the Great War.
ALL THIS REQUIRES MONEY
Dr. Sidney E. Smith, President of the University of Manitoba, and of the “Y"” National Council said: “Contributions (pf this kind) are cheap premiums from those of us who are not risking
our lives on the battlefields, on the sea, Or in the- air.”’
$1,038,000.00 IS URGENTLY NEEDED to continue and extend “Y” Services to Canadian
Troops in Canada and Overseas, (For the 16 month period, Sept. 3rd, 1939, to Dec. 31st, 1940).
This is on a strict Budget basis—
$541,250 is for Services to Troops Overseas.
$496,750 is for Services to Troops in Canada.
THE ACCEPTED SHARE FOR INGERSOLL AND
DISTRICT IS *4000 .00
Citizens at home must support the men who risk their lives to insure that we can live theway we want to live. •
Our boys did not sign up to fight in only two or three or four engagements; they volunteeredfor the Duration of the War.
Can other Canadians call quits when they have contributed to two or three or more worthyfunds for the benefit of our enlisted men?

BRITAIN 8 NEW ARMY BOOT

The output of the BrUteh tw- t

greater than the figure of 130,000

| Mr. Chamberlain at the beginning of
the year, and th« production, which
he coflgmred with that of 120,000
pah* of <»my boot* a year tn peace
time, i* steadily increasing to the
neighborhood of 7,000,000 pairs a
year.
The British Army's new boot I*
sixteen ounce* lighter than the one
which bncdfne famou* during the 1**1
war. Trade expert* have been »o
successful in combining durability
with lightness and good fitting that
when the official pattern was sealed
they dubbed it “the country gentle
man’s regulation boot”
The British Admirality is buying
some twenty kind* of boot*, »h*es
and slippers. Minesweeper’s knee
boot* are tested with nine inches of
water over a period inside each and
if a drop leaks the boot is rejected.
For airmen there are knee boots
lined throughout with natural lamb
fleece and for every man in the air
there are forty on the ground wear
ing Air Force ankle boots.
The British boot trade is prepared
for any further demands upon it
Large quantities of a special type
are now goingafrom British factories
for the French Army and from
1914-1918 Britain equipped not only
the British forces but in part the
armies of France, Italy, Russia, Ser
bia, Rumania and the United States.
BRITAIN’S CARGO FLEET
To Be Kept Up By Ma** Production
There .will be an important differ
ence in Britain's mass production of
cargo vessel* for the war between
the methods of 1914-18 and those of
to-day.
Formerly, the practice was to
evolve a number of standard de
sign* for cargo vessels and to place
orders with shipyards for numbeis of
vessels of those types more or less
indiscriminately. Experience showed,
Iwwevel, that shipyards specialising
in certain types of tonnage—os most
of them do—found it difficult to
adapt their, methods and equipment
to the standard type*.
The system likely to be adopted in
Britain in the present emergency is
quite different. The authorities will
require the various shipyards to con
centrate upon building vessels of

Farm Management
What Is Your Farm Worth?
Increasing interest is being shown
in the ownership of farm land. This
is characteristic of war periods. It
may be that a farmer will be ap
proached by someone asking the
selling price of his farm and in many
cases this is not an easy thing to
state. Farm values are determined
by several different methods but prob
ably the most usual is by comparing
the merits of the farm under con
sideration with those of some other
nearby farm which, has recently
changed hands at a known price. In
some localities no sales have taken
place and it is "necessary to place a
value on it tyy guegs.
To the buyer who of necessity
must pay for the farm with operation
profit, the farm value is very closely
linked , with its productivity. The
problem of securing a satisfactory
measure of farm productivity a* a
basis of value is now being <oolved.
The Economics Division, Market
ing Service, Ottawa, and the Ontafio
Agricultural College, Guelph, by
means of the Ontario Farm Manage
ment Study, have found that cash
receipts in comparison with’' ihyest-
ment gives a measure of productive
value, and this is expressed as the
number of years it takes for the
cash receipts to equal the capital in-j
vestment.
A study of 334 whole milk-shipper
farms for the year ended April 30,
1938, shows that it requires the cash
receipts of 4-6 year* to equal the
total value of the farm, live stock
and equipment. Another group of
258 farms, from which milk was
shipped for manufacture, required
5.2 years for the cash receipts to
equal the total capital value.
By using these ratios of turnover
to capital a farmer can arrive at a
fair valuation of his farm. Cash re
ceipts are made up of all farm sales
during the year. In order to make a
fair estimate of these an average
should be used of the receipts over a
period'of years. This average, multi
plied by the figure given above, ap
plicable to the type of dairy farm -will
give the productive value of the
total farm capital. If, from this sum,
the value of live stock, machinery
and other moveables fe deducted, the
balance I* a valuation for real estate.

£1,000,000 A DAY
Subscribed By Britons For 100 Days
One hundred million pounds in
one hundred days has been volun
tarily lent to the State by the people
of Britain in response to the Gov
ernment’s appeal to "lend to defend
the right to be free.”
The King, referring to this “re
markable result”, said “it is a fine
example of the determination of my
p’eople to dedicate their energies and
their resources to the winning of
victory and peace.”
The investors were almost all
“small men”—such as workers in
offices and factories—and their total
comprised £49% million in National
Savings Certificates price 15 shill
ings each, and £5014 million in De
fence Bonds of £5 each.
In spite of this huge sum from the
ordinary citizen’s saving, the totalamount of deposits in the £ost Of
fice Savings Bank and the Trustee
Savings Bank has risen, after allow
ing for all withdrawals, by £8,-
000,000 since war began.
The State is also richer by an in
crease in .the yield of taxation: Re
ceipts in early March were already
up by £110,000,000 for the financial
year, and of this additional buttress
to the nation's financial stability
about £90,000,000 belongs to the war
period.
To maintain war supplies both for
the Services and for export trade,
the Ministry of Supply had ordered
£140,000,000 worth of raw mater
ials up to the end of the first six
months of war, and are now spend
ing at the rate of £16,000,000 a day
to keep industry fed with the sinews
of war and overseas trade.

from all over Canada will be preaent.
From February 1st, to March 3 let,
1,702 cases were shipped to the Can

England. They contained thousands
upon thousands of the articles made
by the women of Canada-hoepital
necessities and knitted articles.
Thirty case* of hospital supplies
were sent during the eame period to
the French Red Cross Society; 244
cases, including clothing for refugee
women and children, to the Finnish
Red Cross; 44 cases to the evacuee
children of London; 34 cases for
Polish refugee*.
Large quantities of woollen ar
ticles of clothing so necessary in the
the English winter climate have been
distributed to the Canadian men in
the Aldershot area by the Society’s
Comforts Committee in London, and
grateful appreciation of the comfort
of home-made socks has been ex
pressed by many officers on behalf
of their men.
Dr. Fred W. Routley, National
Commissioner, yesterday received a
report from the oerseas Visiting
Committee that volunteer visitor* had
been recruited and were now attach
ed to many hospitals in England and
Scotland. It is the duty of these wo
men to look after Canadian men ly
ing wounded in these hospitals and
relay their needs to the London of
fice, from which parcels are forward
ed regularly. Wherever necessary,
messages are sent by the hospital vis
itor to the patient's anxious parents
in Canada.
"This service, which, unfortunate
ly, must grow to large proportions
as the war goes on, is one of the
most improtant pieces of work done
by the Canadian Red Cross Society,”
Dr. Routley stated.
