U M y "SHOP Di INGERSOLL DAYS” ARE REPORTED A SUCCESS Merchants Appear Well Satis­ fied With Business Accord­ ed Them Last Week-end. Prise Winners Selected By Mayor Murray. Crampton W. A. To Celebrate Their 38th Anniversary Crampton—The Crampton Worn- Reports received from Ingersoll Business Firms who co-operated with The Ingersoll Tribune in sponsoring "Shop in Ingersoll Days”, last week­ end appear to be most satisfactory. The majority of those taking part state they are quite well satisfied with the extra business that rolled into their cash registers last week, while some state that their receipts were not much above the average. From the coupons that were turn­ ed in it would appear that a great deal of interest was taken in these special days by the people of the town as well as from the surround­ ing districts. Many were in town on Saturday evening that were heard to remark they had not been in Inger­ soll on a Saturday night for some months. The business firms co-operated wholeheartedly in sponsoring these special shopping days and the win­ dows of the stores were bedecked with pennants, banners and cards, inviting the people to "Shop Here.” Thirty prizes totalling over $50.00 in cash, were offered, -and coupons were given with each 50c purchase. Thousands of these were turned in, in fact enough to fill a large barrel. The draw was made by His Worship, Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray, on Monday and the winners are announced below: 1st prize, $10.00—Mrs. R. J. Al- brough, 321 Bell street, Ingersoll. 2nd prize, $5.00—Mrs. Albert Har­ ris, R.

McLean, B.A., Preached Inspiring Sermon At Annual Divine Service on Sunday Evening. Ingersoll branches of the Indepen­ dent Order of Odd Fellows, Samari­ tan Lodge, No. 35; Unity Encamp­ ment, No. 21; Canton Ingersoll, No. 19, and Keystone Rebekah, No. 69, held their annual divine service on Sunday evening May 19th, when they paraded to the Ingersoll Baptist Church and occupied the centre pews for the service. No doubt due to the unfavorable weather conditions, less than one hundred members of the order were in attendance. The breth­ ren mef at the lodge rooms and par­ aded along Thames street to the church, where an impressive service was conducted by the minister, Rev. George A. McLean, B.A. The paiade was marshalled by P.G. Bro. W. L. Gregory and P.G. Bro. Howard Payne. A short song service opened the service. For this Miss Edith Making was at the organ and violin accom­ paniment was given by Carl Ed­ monds and Keith Geddie. The choir was under the direction of Mr. Ed­ monds, who presided at the organ after the song sen-ice. They gave as an anthem, the hymn, "God Save Thy People.” A much enjoyed solo was rendered during the sen-ice by Mr. L. M. Sommer. Rev. Mr. McLean, on behalf of the Baptist Church and himself, gave a most cordial -qyglcome to the visiting Odd Fellows and Rebekahs. He de­ clared that while he was not a mem­ ber of any fraternal society, he was acquainted with the work that was done by many such organizations and he held the most profound admira­ tion for the Odd Fellows because of what they had done and what they stood for. “When I think of your symbol, the three links and your motto, "Friend­ ship, Love and Truth ’, said Rev. Mr. McLean, “I feel that the three links, binding together as they do, Friend­ ship, Love and Truth, is a wonderful principal upon which to have your order founded.” Upon the centre link, love, everything depended, for if it were broken the other two links could not be held together, he said. Love he believed, was most fondly expressed, not in the love of getting, but in the love of giving. It was the speaker's belief that as men and wo­ men, the members of the order were actually carrying-out in their every day life the principals upon which the Independent Order of Odd Fel­ lows had been founded. The text from which Rev. Mr. Mc­ Lean based his discourse, was taken from the last part of the thirteenth verse of the thirteenth chapter of 1st Corinthians, “And the greatest, of these is love.” He remarked that the meaning of this was that love is the greatest and most dominating influ­ ence in everyone’s heart and we should keep this in mind until the time would come that we would be like Him, whose example we "should all try to follow. In closing his address, Rev. Mr. McLean left with his hearers the-ap- peal to consider love as the greatest of all things in this world and he ad­ vocated that the members of the order present at the service, strive to continue to carry out th? princi­ pals involved in living an unselfish life.

Seven Municipalities Were Represented At Meeting Here Representatives of seven Western Ontario municipalities met in Inger­ soll last week to consider making overtures to the Dominion Natural Gas Co. for a reduction in natural gas rates. Ingersoll and Woodstock council gas committees were asked to secure additional data and to arrange for a more representative meeting at a later date. The seven municipalities represen­ ted were Woodstock, Galt, Brantford, Preston, Hespeler, Dorchester and IngersolL Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray of Ingersoll, was voted to the chair and W. R. Marshall, Ingersoll, was named as secretary. , Councillor George Preston, Inger­ soll, outlined the information he had to date in his fight for lower gas rates and his final decision to have a jneeting called in Ingersoll to get some timely action on the matter. A few speakers presented ideas and facts that had been gathered at a meeting held some years ago in Brantford at which about 40 munici­ palities were represented. It was felt that the fight, in a general way should be taken up anew from the Brantford angle of that time, data of which was all available. The Ingersoll and Woodstock gas committees agreed to go further into the matter, secure certain additional data, and then get in touch with the places represented at the Brantford meeting. The meeting was more of a “fact finding” gathering, and a nuc­ leus for further action. F. E. Keatle Is Local Oldsmobile Dealer In last week’s issue of The Inger­ soll Tribune a mistake was made in the dealer's name that appeared at the foot of the Oldsmobile advertise­ ment. The local Oldsmobile dealer is Mr. F. E. Kestle, and not Odell and Allen, The advertisement is repeated in this week’s issue of The Tribune over the name of F. E. Kestle, Gen­ eral Motors Dealer, who has had the local agency for Chevrolet and Olds­ mobile Automobiles and Chevrolet Trucks in Ingersoll for a number of years. The Tribune regrets the error and asks readers to note that the correct dealer’s signature appears under the Oldsmobile advertisement on page 5. Canada’s War Effort Portrayed In Picture The director of Public Information for Canada in association with the National Film Board of Canada, are sponsoring a series of one-reel motion picture films dealing with the Canad­ ian War Effort, under the general title, "Canada Carries On.” The first film in this series called, “Atlantic Patrol,” was shown on Monday and Tuesday of this week at the Mait­ land Theatre, Ingersoll. The picture dealt with the oper­ ations of the Canadian Navy in con­ voy work, and was an interesting portrayal to the Canadian people of thqir war effort in a truthful and dramatic fashion. Mr. and Mrs. George Fisher L- Honored By Friends About 25 friends of Mr. and Mrs. George Fisher, William street, paid them a surprise visit on Saturday evening last, in honor of their 34th wedding anniversary, when they were made the recipients of a handsome chenille bedspread, the presentation being made by Wallace Lee, while an appropriate address was read by W., Chaiton. During the evening cards were enjoyed, and later delicious re­ freshments were enjoyed, including a handsome, gaily decorated wedding cake, which the friends had taken with them, and a jolly social hour was spent, at the close of which all wished Mr, and Mrs. Fisher maqy more anniversaries.

One of Ingersoll's best known cit­ izens, John Edgar Hargan, dearly beloved husband of Annie Jones, passed away at the family residence, 218 Oxford street, shortly after nine o'clock on Sunday evening, May 19th, following an illness that had confined him to his bed for the past six weeks. Mr. Hargan had been in poor health for the past two years but his con­ dition did not become grave until about a month ago and for the past week little hope was held for hia recovery. He was born at Seaforth, Ontario, a son of the late William and Annie Hargan, and came here with his par­ ents to live about 46 years ago. He had been a resident of Ingersoll con­ tinuously since that time and for the past 45 years had been employed with the Morrow Screw & Nut Com­ pany Limited. He started with that firm and had served in various capa­ cities until the time of his death when he occupied the position of Works Manager and Assistant Treas­ urer. He was also a director of the 1 company. Mr. Hargan was of a retiring dis- I position and never sought public of-1 flee, although he had been an ap­ pointee from the town council on the Board of Education for many years, until poor health forced his retire­ ment in December, 1938. He was chairman of the Board of Education for the year 1928 and served aa chairman of the Finance Committee irom that time until he retired from the Board. He was a member of Court Oxford, No. 12, -Canadian Or­ der of Foresters. Mr. Horgan was a member 'of Trinity United Church. Previous to church union, he served as a member of the Board of Stew­ ards of the Ingersoll Methodist Church and continued in that office as a member _ of Trinity United Church up to the time of his death. He occupied the position of chairman of the Finance Committee of the Board of Stewards qntil two years ago. Deceased was an active member of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club until 1938, and since that time continued as a privileged member. While the Ingersoll Curling Club was in oper­ ation he took a keen interest in cur­ ling., He was also a director for sev­ eral years of the Ingersoll Commun­ ity “Y.” Left to mourn- his passing besides his widow are three daughters and one son, Catherine D. Hargan, Lon­ don; Norah E. Hargan and Margaret H. Hargan, at home, and W. Alan Hargan, a medical student at the University of Western Ontario, Lon­ don; also two sisters, Misses Mabel Hargan and Elva Hargan, both of Ingersoll, to all of whom the sym­ pathy of their scores of friends is extended. The funeral was held from the family residence, 218 Oxford street, ion Wednesday afternoon, with a private service at 2.30 o'clock, fol­ lowed by a public service in Trinity United Church at 3 p.m. Interment was made in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery. The service in the church was very largely attended and there were a great many beautiful floral tributes testifying to the esteem in which deceased was held by a wide circle of friends. Members of the staff of the Morrow Screw & Nut Company Limited, attended in a body. The impressive service was conducted by Rev. Charles D. Daniel, minister of Trinity United Church.

VEALEProprietor and Editor PHONES—Tribune Office, IS - Residence, 5a6 — Member of —■ The Canadian Weekly Newspapers' Association THURSDAY, MAY 23rd, 1940 Defense of Canada Regulations One of the duties of Parliament during the course of the next few weeks will be to review the Defense of Canada Regulations under the War Measures Act. There have been assurances from Ottawa that this will be carried out. With the present war now unfolded on a scale that already threatens to make historians drop “Great” from the "Great War of 1914-1918,” this country, in line with our allies, has come to grips with the realization that we are in all truth fighting to the death. This being so, there is likely to oe sterner measures adopted by the Canadian Govern­ ment to see to it that the war effort is not hampered by subversive interests within the Dominion, nor impeded by the activities of enemy agents or the unguarded talk of citizens at large. But it seems we are still some short in matching the drastic attitude of England towards the enemy. When it was announced that the British government was bringing down legislation providing for the death penalty in extreme cases of espionage or sabotage, Ottawa indicated semi-officially that Canada was not considering following suite. The new trend was revealed only this last week, when after a cabinet meeting to reconsider Canada’s position in the light of Hitler's invasion of Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg, Premier King announced that certain steps were being taken by which Canada ■would render still more help to the allies. In making this anouncement, Mr. King said he could not tell Canadian citizens what these steps were, for "obvious reasons.” Canada is extremey vulnerable to ‘‘fifth column” ) efforts of enemy agents because of her friendly rela­ tionship with the United States. In that country, a neutral administration cannot keep German sympa­ thizers under the close scrutiny which would be per­ mitted under other circumstances. And since we are doing our utmost to encourage tourist traffic from the United States, it becomes an easy matter for enemy agents to get into Canada under the guise of United States citizenship. This is one situation which may give legislators some cause for concern during the general view of the sit­ uation. At the moment there appears but two courses to take on this phase of the problem. Either we keep restrictions cased as they are at present along the border, in the interests of tourist revenue—or we scrutinize visitors much more closely in the interests of public safety. All this is predicted on the assumption that the United State will stay neutral. If the swiftly changing picture of Nazi aggression in Europe should swing the great neighboring republic into the war, then present difficulties would dissolve. There may be more general interest in what the House of Commons decides to do about censorship. As the war has gone thus far in Canada, censorship has been applied in a comparatively loose fashion. Officials have been appointed to stand guard over newspapers and other publications over radio sta­ tions, ingoing and outgoing mail. Rut they have worked in a so*mewhat lenicn tmanner. Only where the protection of Canadian troops depended on cloak­ ing their movements and in the publication of tech­ nical information of military value has this new de­ partment shown an iron hand inside the glove. Whether parliament will require the censors to broaden their activities remains to be seen. Without doubt, there will be spokesmen in the House who will draw attention to the loose check on war news as published and broadcast in Canada. - There is a growing feeling that the public has been unduly alarmed on occasion, made pessimistic at times, by an hysterical presentation of certain phases of the great war story being unfolded from Europe day by day. And should this question be brought up for consideration by members in the House, many complications will arise. If the country attempts to curb the individuafnews broadcaster who plays on the emotions of his listeners by employing the artifices of the dramatic actor m an attempt to inject an air of vital importance to ev­erything he says, what happens to th</newspaper pub­ lisher who places screaming "banner qines on stories day after day, regardless of the relative importance of the news he is presenting? What is to be done about similiar broadcasting which pours across the border from radio stations in the United States? If a restraining hand is to be laid on Canadian newspapers and other periodicals in governing the use of news services from the United States, what happens to the uncensored newspapers and magazines which are sold freely throughout Canada. "As’the war rages over a 300-mile front.” says The Toronto Globe and Mail, "it is imperative that the Dominion Government take stock of its war pro­ gram.” And not only take stock, tout also get on with production in a hurry. Considering that it “foresaw” this struggle long before it broke out, Mr. King’s administration ‘can scarcely be complimented on the use to which, to date, it has put its foreknowledge, auhe.va ' Ottawa announces that the government hopes to cut Canada’s relief bill in half during the present fiscal year—or from >26,000,000 to >13,000,000. The provinces would-share in this apparent saving, as relief payments have been placed bn the name basis M last year, 40 per cent by the Dominion, 40 per cent by the provinces, and 20 per cent by the municipali­ ties. The only fly in the ointment-ffi'Qurt the Domin­ ion will set a limit this year on the amount of money to be contributed for relief. In the event that the figure fixed by the Dominion falls short of the re­ quirements of the provinces, the deficiency would have to be made up by the provinces and the municipalities.

At every port or entry American visitors will shortly come across the border to see Canada and Canadians at war, to get their extra ‘‘day in ten” free of charge to visit and revisit our cities, lakes and playgrounds. There is no need to stress the rea­ sons why this year's tourist business is a vital part of Canada's war c f- fort. For one thing, we must ha/e American dollars to fight the war. Since we can no longer borrow money in the U. S., the American dollars our tourist visitors will exchange at the border to pay for their Canadian holiday will be a major source of funds with .which to pay for essential raw materials which Uncle Sain sells us. Another potent reason is that Ly being interpreters as well as good hosts to these 15 or 20 million viat­ ors, we can immeasurably aid the al­ lied cause. How are we going to be sure these American visitors will come in record-breaking numbers? How are we going to make sure that our cab- their part to dicuss “the issues at stake” when they arrive? How arc we going to make sure that our cab ins and facilities meet reasonable standards of comfort and cleanliness? The Federal Government, each provincial government and scores of municipalities already have their own travel or tourst bureaus. Other in­ terested agencies, the railways, oil companies, hotel and steamship firms , are equally busy sowing the seed which they hope will bnng rich harvest. x I The 63rd Battery arrived in Ingersoll about 3.30 o’clock Monday afternoon.

Full particulars from any agent What seems to be lacking is a nation-wide co-ordinated effort to bring home to the man in the street, to community leaders, to service clubs, to employers and employees, to the local innkeepers and tourirt camp proprietors the fact that the tourist business in 1940 is just as much a part of the country's war effort as the making of shells or growing of wheat. A fe4v days ago Ottawa announced another national effort which seen;# to parallel closely the tourist situa­ tion. A country-wide sales prograr. under men with proved business and sales experience organized to mer­ chandise War Savings Certificates. The organization is headed by W. H. Somerville, general manager, The Mutual Life of Canada, and de Gaspe Beaubien, president David & Frere Ltd., Montreal. These mec were co-opted from their peacetime occupations. They will enlist the ser­ vices of thousands of men and women irt every walk of life to put over. this phase of the nation’s war effort A similiar organization seems nec­ essary to make Canada tourist con­ scious in terms of the opportunities and responsibilities which lie at hand. Such a body should co-ordinate tne work of existing agencies. It should enlist the support and interest of every citizen in doing his or her part to put tourism in Canada "over the top.” —Reprinted from The Finanoul Post, May 18th, 1940.

These and particularly those called Vesicants were a German revival of barbarism although opposed to in­ ternational law, and national agree­ ment The commonest one used was mustard gas which one is likely to be used again by the Germans if the wind is favourable. Mustard gas, is an oily yellow to a dark brown liquid, soluble in oil and spirits, neutralized by bleaching powder and with great power of penetration. It smells like garlic and acts both like a liquid and as a vapour. The liquid effect: 1. In the eyes there is an imme­ diate irritation producing ulceration of the mucous membrane, oedema of the lids and closing of the eyes In about an hour. 2. ■ On the skin there is no imme­ diate effect but a little erythema which develops in about two hours and in from 12 to 24 hours by a blister. Enough of the liquid to stick to the point of a pin is suffic­ ient to cause a blister half an inch jn diameter surrounded with intense oedema and inflammation to a total width of 1V4 inches.

In the eyes there is irritation and inflammation, with swelling and temporary loss of vision which de­ velops within 24 hours. 2. In the respiratory tract, irrita­ tion and coughing with loss of voice. 8. On the skin—redness and irri­ tation with possibly small blister later on. Another Vesicant made, but not used by the United States called Le­ wisite, became known at the close of the Great War. It .is considered a very dangerous product. Colorless, the liquid gives the smell of geran­ iums It is readily destroyed by water and any alkali. In action it resembles Mustard gas but acta much more rapidly. Thd liquid in the eyes produces an immediate inflammation and ulceration wtih permanent in­ jury; it blisters the skin in 15 to 30 minutes. The vapour causes severe irritation to the nose, fortunately forcing people to at once put on respirators. If not used, the victim may develop pneumonia in 24 hours. On the skin the vapour of Lewis­ ite is less irritating than Mustard gas. Both Lewisite and Mustard gas in liquid form penetrate clothing, leather and wood. Clothing has to be boiled or steamed; leather steamed 6-8 hours and wood has to be dried in an oven or burned. If clothing or leather goods can be thrown away, they should be buried and covered with chloride of lime. ^Uhen tytui Se*ut MONEY Im MAIL HEALTH LEAGUE of CANADA WAR GAS You don’t mail actual money, of course—you go to our nearest branch and purchase a Money Order, which you can safety post as a present to someone, or i a pay a bifl.

Aseltine Awarded Trophy By Adjudicator As Best Male Performer The Ingersoll Little Thealre Guild war enthusiastically praised by Miss Nella Jeffries of Toronto, for its production of the satire, “Cupid Rampant," when presented Thursday night in the London Drama Festival. They received further honor when Howard S. Aseltine playing the role of the orderly was awarded the trophy for the best male per­ formance in the entire festival. Miss Jeffries in her adjudication, noted that the audience enjoyed, “Cupid Rampant" tremendously. “I have seen this play done twice before,” she said, “but at neither time did the audience enjoy them­ selves as much as at tonight's per­ formance." Regarding it as a very neat, work­ manlike job, she admired especially the /trikingly good effects so simply achieved in costume and set, and praised the military precision so necessary and so well sustained. She stated that this play could hardly win a festival award because, it being the type of play it was, it did not require a great deal of acting. "What it needs is force and pre­ cision, not only in action, but in speech and I feel that this group successfully attained them," said the adjudicator. In selecting Mr. Aseltine for the best male performance award, Mias Jeffries said that she based her de­ cision on the poise, authority and fine sense of humor with whwh he portrayed his part. The St. Peter’s Dramatic Society of London, captured first place for its presentation of the drama, “Hu Great Dark,” and “Cupid Rampart,” (Ingersoll) *hlong with two other plays was suggested for honorable mention. Members of the cast of the success­ ful local play were: Margaret Bow.r, Muriel Sommer, Howard Aseltine, Allister Murray and Jack Hutt. The play was directed by Miss Estelle Carney; stage manager, Miss Jean McKenzie; costumes, Miss Betty Crawford; make-up, Mr. and Mrs. C K. Long; special effects, Hal. Stev­ ens and Stanley J. Smith. Canadian Legion Aska Suppression Of “Fifth Columns” Urgent demands that the Domin­ ion Government take immediate steps to suppress “Fifth Column" ac­ tivities in Canada, to ban German language publications and all Ger­ man language-meetings, as well as to investigate non-enemy aliens, espec­ ially those whose countries are dis­ playing anti-British tendencies, arc contained in resolutions being re­ ceived at Dominion Command head­ quarters of the Canadian Legion, J. R. Bowler, M.B.E., general secretary of the Legion anounced recently from Ottawa. The resolutions are being wired from Legion branches in many parts of Canada and immediately upon re­ ceipt are placed in the hands of the Government, Mr. Bowler stated He added that they will be dealt with during the Legion’s Dominion con­ vention to be held in Montreal this month. Interment of all German citizens now resident in Canada and investi­ gation of all enemy aliens who have become naturalized since the close of the first Great War is also urged in the resolutions. Non-enemy aliens should be registered and their mi­ gration from one part of Canada Lo another should be allowed only un-tler special permit The resolutions also demand that all interment camps be placed under the administration and control of units consisting ex­ clusively of ex-service men espec­ ially enlisted for this purpose. Mr. Bowler said that a number of (the resolutions expressed disapproval >of releasing so many Germans who hid previously been in interment camps and strongly recommended the Government to take immediate action against all subversive elements that might endanger Canada’s war effort.

Pu High The May meeting of the Nors­ worthy Chapter, I.O.D.E., was held at the home of Mrs. F. Heath Stone, Thames street south. Considerable business was transacted and the re­ gent, Mrs. R. G. Start, presided. The financial report of Tag Day held recently to raise money for the Milk Fund was read by the treasurer and showed that the sum raised was an increase over that of the past few years and this was most gratifying. Letters of thanks were read in­ cluding one from the Canadian Leg­ ion for the $10.00 donation received fromzthe chapter and another from Provincial Headquarters in acknow­ ledgement of the comforts sent to Finland. A letter received from Pro­ vincial Headquarters from the Lotta Sward Auxiliary of Oulu, Finland, states that the articles of clothing have reached the needy people and sincere gratitude was expressed to all Canada who. have contributed or taken leadership in this kind of work. The report of the war work con­ vener, showed the following returns to the Red Cross during April: 15 pairs socks, eight pairs men’s pyjamas, one pair boy’s pyjamas, 2 girls’ nightgowns, one pair bloomers four pairs bootees, two scarves, one sweater, three pairs wristlets. Dur­ ing the summer months, the mem­ bers plan to make layettes for the evacuees and refugee children in England and will also make up com­ plete sets for'the Army and Navy, comprising of two pains- socks, a sleeveless sweater, helmet, acarf and mitts. The members will collect good used fiction for Camp Libraries. Mrs. L. W. Porter, delegate to the annual meeting of the Provincial Chapter held in Hamilton last month presented a splendid report and one which served to inspire the members to exert their best efforts in continu­ ing to assist in the great work of this nation widr organization. Of particu­ lar interest to the members was the fact that the Norsworthy Chapter re­ ceived special mention as being the first to make and send in complete sets for the Navy. Mrs. L. A. West­ cott extended a hearty vote of thanks to Mrs. Porter for her most interest-* ing and comprehensive report. Assisting the hostess' at the tea hour were Mrs. James Sinclair, Mrs. L. W. Staples, Mine E. A. Seldon and Miss Margaret Wilson.

PHONE 57 Little Chat* on Farm Management This is the concluding article of a aeries of "Little Chats on Farm Management.” An attempt has been made in the series to acquaint readers with the latest findings in farm management research. Crop Yield* and Farming Success The dairy farmer’s cash income from crops sales in Ontario normally is relatively small. The crops which he produces are used, largely, as raw products in milk production. The croping program on the dairy farm, however, is important. Dairying is recognized as an effective method of marketing the roughages and cereals produced on the land operated. To some consider­able extent, limits on the size' of/ dairy enterprise are set by the quan-<itity of crops grown. An abundance I of crop may be provided by either a'| small yield per acre or a large num­ ber of acres or by a high yield per acre from a comparatively small area. The latter plan is definitely more profitable as is shown by stu­ dies of the business of both dairy and hog-producing farms in the province. An analysis of the dairy farming business, extending over several years, is now in progress in Ontario and a one year study of the hog bus­ iness has just been made. This work I is conducted jointly by the Econom­ ics Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, and the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph. Data, selected to show the effect of crop yields per acre on operator earnings, are taken from these studies and deal with the farm business year ended April 30, 1938. On 334 farms from wmeh milk was shipped for fluid consumption the average operator earnings were $798. On those farms where the crop yields per acre were 20 per cent or more below the average yield on all farms, the earnings averaged $280. The average earnings were $1,000 per farm where the yields per acre of crops were greater than 20 per cent above the average of all farms. Here the difference between earnings of those having poor and good crop yields per acre amounted to $720 per farm. A similar study was made of the business of 258 farms from which milk was sold for manufacture into cheese, condensed products or butter. The average earnings of the farms with low yields were $258 as com­ pared with $938 where high crop yields were secured. Due to improve­ ment in crop yields the average earnings were increased }>y $680. Quite as striking results were found to prevail on the hog farms. The average crop yields pere acre of the more important crops on these dairy farms are presented and may serve as measuring rods relative to crop yields—oats, 31.8 bushels; wheat, 28.3 bushels; barley, 27.6 bushels; mixed grain, 33.9 bushels; corn silage, 9.3 tons, clover adn tim­ othy hay, 1.6 tons, alfalfa hay, 1.9 tons, cereal hay, 1.3 tons and pota­ toes, 119 bushels. Practically all farmers attain crop yields for one or more crops which exceed the averages here shown on certain fields of their farm. In order to attain high operator earnings, however, the average crop yield for the total acreage of each crop should exceed the averages quoted. The Provincial agricultural repre­ sentative for each county is available to provide information regarding seed, fertilizer and cultural methods pertaining to ail farm crops of his county."He may well be consulted as a means of gaining the necessary information as to how that good crop yield may be attained with its conse­ quent increased earnings for farmers. The seregant was asking the re­ cruit why walnut was used for the butt of a riflew“Because it is stronger.” “Wrong!” “Because it is more elastic.” “Wrong!” “Perhaps its because it looks nicer than any other kind,” volunteered another timidly. “Don’t be an ass,” snapped the sergeant. “Simply be­ cause it was laid down in regula­ tions.” up to 2 0 % on Insurance Premiums with O In many communities fire insurance premiums are reduced as much aa 20% when Brantford Asphalt Slates are used to added protectionfrom fire.
