War Production In Britain
No one who understands the immensity of the task
ef turning over the industry of a country from a
peace to a war basis will have been surprised at Win
ston Churchill’s recent statement, that Britain is
only a partially armed nation. Under the modern
conception of total war a nation is only fully aipned
when industrial war production reaches a maximum
such as to keep fully equipped the largest possible
fighting force. The number of men who can profit
ably be trained to fight is limited by the capacity to
equip them adequately.
Ernest Bcvin, British Minister of Labor, has stated
that in January, 1941, more British people were en
gaged in muntions production than at the peak of
the last .war, in July, 1918. But the standard of
equipment has gone up since then, and far more muni
tions will be needed for, say 4,000,000 soldiers in this
war than for 5,000,000 in the last.
To achieve the desired results requires the most
exact organization of all the major activities of the
country. Control at the top is essential, and the mass
of the people have asked nothing better than that
they should be told by the Government what each
ahould do in the common cause. From the moment
that conscription for the army was adopted it was
generally agreed that the same fundamental must be
applied to civilians, and that the Government should
have power to control property and profits, and the
labor of men and women, rich and poor alike.
The machinery to be set in motion was intricate.
The fighting services had to decide what equipment
they needed. The supply departments placed orders
on a gigantic scale with firms capable of adapting
their plants. There was immense demand for machine
tools and skilled labor. More tools had to be manu
factured, more labor trained. Cure had to be taken
that the rate of production of one part of a weapon
kept pace with the rate of production of other parts
manufactured in perhaps many other-factories.
It was essential that skilled men should be carefully
distributed to meet the needs of competing industries
and the Services.’ Registration for service in the
Forces has now been followed by the industrial regis
tration of the civilian population by age-groups—-
that is, by the making of lists of those who may be
called on to serve the State in national industry.
Compulsion in like manner is applied to employers who
if engaged in vital war work, have no longer tho
right to dismiss their employees except .for miscon
duct; and the Government has the power, sparingly
exercised, to take over and run industrial undertak
ings.
How far this vast machinery of production has
been organized to the best passible advantage cannot
.yet be fully judged, but there is no doubt that, equip
ment is now* coming into production on a scale, that is
literally enormous.—The Christian Science Monitor.

Editorial Suggestion
In talking to Canadians from London recently,
Sir Robert Kinderriey gave this country startling in
formation about the way Great Britain has carried
out a War Savings ■Program since the start-of- the.
war fifteen months ago. The President of the National
Savings Committee in England stated that in these
fifteen months the small man has saved through sav
ing certificates, defence bonds, savings banjes and a
few odds and ends, the sum of six hundred million
pounds—almost three billion dollars in Canadian •
money.
And Sir Robert made an interesting comparison
When he revealed that subscriptions to large loans
during that period of fifteen months was eight hun
dred and seventy-five million pounds.
In other words, the wage earners, of Old England
are contributing a total mighty close to the total
loaned by citizens of mean*, and corporations.
Even after discounting the vast difference between
the population of Canada and the population of
Great Britain, Canada's attempt to secure one hun
dred and twenty million, in a year from War Certificate loam suffers by comparison,
True, the ma-raj. of people in England have a deep
incentive to provide every last available shilling for
the war. effort.Over there, they fully realize the threat
that hangs- over .their freedom and their home*.

Recent surveys suggest that “anappreciable number of our urbanpeople are not properly fed,” saysDr. E. W. MdHenry, of the Schoolof Hygiene, University of Toronto,
in an article in a recent imue of the
Canadian Public (Health Journal.
Admitting that low incomes are a
partial cause of this condition, Dr.
McHenry adds that another factor
enters, and one .which is easier to
remedy—that of lack of nutritional
knowledge, "including not only in
formation regarding the right food to
use, but also the most economical
way of buying and preparing foods.”
In this connection he acknowledges
the work done by the nutrition
classes operated in Toronto by the
Health League of Canada.
Speaking of the insufficient use of
milk, Dr. McHenry pointe out that,
in the case of families with incomes
of $1,500 to $2,400 a year, this is
most noticeable in teen-age girls, the
probable explanation being the "cur
rent desire on the part of girls to be
slim.” He comments: “These girls
obviously lacked information about
foods, because they gave up the use
of milk and ate generously of other
foods which are more fattening.
Dr. McHenry does not advocate
the "fortifying” of white bread with
the addition of thiamin. This, he
states, is only one of a group of eight
or nine members of the vitamin B
complex, all of which are needed.
The addition of thiamin therefore
will not sufficiently raise the lbw
nutritional value of white bread.
Preferable, according to the Doctor,
is wheat germ, 5 per cent of which
is equal to 20 per cent of whole
wheat. White bread improved with
wheat germ, he adds, is little changed
in either appearance or flavor from
ordinary white bread.
Defining an adequate diet as one
which satisfies the individual’s ener
gy requirements, provides sufficient
jprotein and supplies all the needed
mineral elements and vitamins, Dr.
McHenry points out that this becomes
practical only when it is translated
into actual foods.
Reminding bis readers that the
Department of National Defence re*
centiy took steps to raise the nutri
tional value of army rations, Dr.
McHenry says:
“There are good reasons for think
ing that raising the nutritional status
of civilians also would be valuable.
We would all agree that nutrition is
’ a ^ctor in maintaining public health;
this is a time, to maintain public
, health on as high a level as possible.
The studies of Haggard at Yale Uni
versity have shown that working effi
ciency is influenced by nutrition. If
we are to produce war supplies in
tensively it will be advisable to have
our workers properly fed.”
. Toronto—Considerable interest in
plan* reported under way for a Plan
for Hospital Care throughout On-
tariOj was expreased recently by offi
cials of the Health League of Can

understood that the Plan would be

Forecast White Grubs
May Be Abundant
In a forecast of the appearance
of white grubs in Ontario and Que
bec in 1941, G. H. Hammond, Divis
ion of Entomology, Science Service,
Dominion Department of Agriculture,
says a widespread and extremely
injurious occurrence of second-year
grubs is expected throughout a large
part of the central and southern
portion of Quebec. . A similar condi- ]
tion will obtain iff the Oshawa and i
Niagara areas of Ontario. No
economic damage is expected to occur
in the Oka-St Jerome-Montreal area
which may cause severe defolii
of shade trees, particularly ash,
lar, and elm, and will provide
from which a severe oulbreal
the second-year stage grubs ma
expected in 1942.
where the grubs will start the season
in the third year of their develop
ment, spending the winter as adults
in the soil.
Throughout the greater proportion I
of Ontario, however, an abundant I
flight of June beetles is expected.1
“By Jove,” said a stranger at a
dance, “what a long and lanky giri
that is over there I”
“Hush,” his host whispered. “She
used to be long and lanky—but now
adays she’s tall and stately. She'a
just inherited a million."

Dramatic Keynote of NewWartime Session> It must be reported by this strictly> impartial and experienced observerI that the grave, bitter and uncom-
f promising attitude of comparative ail-
, ence in official sources or extensive
I gossip behind the scenes in the lobbies
;and elsewhere in the nerve center of
Canada, Ottawa, on the real basic
. rehsons for pertain vital actions as
» revealed in the Gpvernment’s prob-
, uble legislative programme in the
r new fateful wartime session of
, Parliament indicates quite clearly
, that history-making decisions may be
> reached in the new few weeks which
j will affect the future existence of
every man, woman and child in this
(country, with the hint that the gath
ering of the people’s representatives
5 may be marked by actions involving
drama, excitement and suspense such
as the capital of Canada has not wit
nessed in its entire history and that
much history-making news and sen
sational surprises ipay result from
the Government’s avowed forceful
and dynamic “ all out” war pro
gramme in 1941 against <the enemies
of the British Commonwealth ofNations. ,
There is no doubt in well-informed
.sources thaj the "all-out” war effort
may produce some changes in the
war administration or personnel
from time to time, but notwithstand
ing all the widely-publicized stories,these Changes will not be extensive.
They will depend entirely upon de
velopment in the session itself and
on the gravity of the* situation
abroad. It is true that the demands,
for unusually heavy sacrifices, includ
ing the task of carrying on two or
more portfolios at the same time,
have shown themselves lately in the
wear and tear of ministerial strength
of the Cabinet, and the newly-ar
rived legislators have not failed to
note this fact Hon. J, L. Ralston,
Minister of National Defence, has
been suffering from sciatica. Hon.
P. J. A. Cardin, Minister of Public
Works, has been forced to take a
brief holiday due to ill health. Rt.
Hon. Ernest Lap^yite, Minister of
Justice, is known to have felt the
effects of his strenuous, war duties. A
somewhat similar story can be told
about the other Ministers, including
Hon. Angus Macdonald, Hon. C. G.
I Power, Hon. J. L. Ilsley, Hon. C. D.
Howe, Hon. James Gardiner, Hon. T.
A. Qrerar, Hon. C. Gibson^Hon. Wil
liam Mulock, and the Hon. James
Mackinnon, all of whom have been
called upon again and again to as
sume additional duties for the work
of other* of the cabinet on account
of the strain of war work. Neverthe
less. suggestions which have been
widely publicized about creating a
War Cabinet or a Union Govern-
have not received a favourable re
ception in official circles. Though a
Mar Cabinet operated overseas in the
last war, including occasional visits
to its meetings by Canadian . Mini»-
tere, yet no such War Cabinet was
established in Ottawa. There was *
Canadian Ministry^ overseas, but a
War Cabinet carried o’n in this coun-
try just as it is ^oing’in this con
flict. Thia War Committee meets
daily when this is possible and the
Cabinet meets as a whole every Tues
day and Thursday, unless events'
warrant other gatherings of that
body. In other words, there ire no
sgin* of any .change* such as sugt
ge»ted by common gossip through
out the country, but startling changes
and history-making news of another
character may result from the Gov
ernment's "all out” war effort and-disclosure* in the new dramatic -war
time session.
distribution of the seats in Parliament by proportional estimation ofpopulation and of provinces. It is thebasis for figuring all subsidies paidto the provinces and for solving
problems of a social nature, auch as
unemployment insurance*. There
fore, if the Government should fav
our a policy of discontinuing or de
laying the census in 1941, it would
require an amendment to the con
stitution and it would interfere with
the whole democratic principle ofrepresentation in .Parliament during
a very critical period when the
masses are sensitive on this point.
Farmer’* War Problems Under
It is known along Parliament Hill
that the authorities are worried over
the situation which the war has
caused to the farmers of Canada
since these hard-working producers
of primary articles are dissatisfied
wth the financial arrangements and
returns for their’ work. There is
conflict of opinion on matters of
policy in solving the wheat problem,
including the guaranteed minimum
price, the storage rates, processing
tax, and control of acreage, with
compulsion measures being resented
by most producers, and the same
dissatisfaction exists in regard to
other arrangements for minimum or
pegged prices for primary products.
In fact, the whole situation is likely
to be reviewed by the Government,
and after the survey, appropriate ac
tion will be taken so that the far
mer of Canada may get an equitable
treatment in the economic set-up of
this country during the war.
In face of the boasts of the enemy
about the alleged destruction caused
to ocean shipping, yet in Ottawa it
has been disclosed that during the
whole of the past year merchandise
exports from Canada alone reached
•the imposing figure of $1,179,000,000
or an average of $98,000,000 per
month, with the United Kingdom get
ting 43 per cent of the total exports,
other Empire countries 13 per cent,
the United States 37 per cent, and
foreign countries 7 per cent.
Butter Price Ri»e Seem* Likely
There is a strong possibility that
the • vital domestic commodity, but
ter, may rise in price, though the
War Prices Board pegged its price
one time and recently the Dairy
Products Board was empowered to
fix a minimum,price. It is not cer
tain what the price will be or
when it will be increased, but it will
be the subject of a careful review in
April when the butter crop of the
next season can best be sized up. At
the same time time, an investigation
is likely in the case of cheese, since
Canada’s "agreement to ship 112,000,-
000 pounds of cheese monthly to the
I'nited Kingdom has a direct relation,
ship to the butter situation in this
country. ♦ (Reproduction Prohibited,

My Old Home TownIt’s soothing to visit my old HomeTown, 4Where as a bare-foot boy I played:To sit at the triank of a long lovedtree,Or sleep in its sheltering shade.I love to retrace my childhood stepsO’er a well remembered hill;Or again to follow the banks of a
stream,
That turned the stones of the mill.
How well I remember the old “Upper
Dam,”Where in Summer\wimming we’d
go;
Or skating in Winter on the river
above,
After clearing the ice of its snow.
In memory I follow the wandering
banks,
As it lazily flows o’er the lea.
Clearly I see the bends in the stream,
As it loiters lazily to sea.
Ah, well do 1 know eath street in
the town;
Again and again have I trod
The entire lengths of the old wooden
walks,
And cinder paths laid in the sod.
It’s joy when again I visit the town,
A few known faces to view.
But most of my friends have now
“Crossed the Bar," ’
The welcoming hands are few.
My Old'Home Town, where early 1
learned
A Mother’s, a Father’s care.
And each time 1 visit the old abode,
I sense their presence there.
My sisters and brother still fight the
good fight,
The bond thus closer drawn;
But 1’11 love the old town, MY OLD
HOME TOWN,
’Till they shall whisper “He has
gone.”

ask Mr. Castle to come over.”
Jeffrey appeared almost at once.. He was in hi* *hirt sleeves, his vest
was unbuttoned and he had a pencilbehind’one ear. "HelloI” he saidin mild surprise, closing the door.
"What’s up?"
"Get your things. You're goingout with me," his wife directed
briefly.
“Going out? What's happened?
Anything wrong?"
"Nothing serious. You're goingout to the country club to fill in a

"But this is Friday, isn’t it?"
Jeffrey looked puzzled.

“Yes? Why?"
"Well, it was kind of you. Butnaturally I’m not going. What

So matters stood one June morn
ing when Audrey was called to the
telephone and heard: "Audrey?This is Mr*. Castle speaking. How
are you?"“Why . . . why, I’m quite well,

"The Judge happened to find outyesterday that tomorrow is Mr.

Audrey was thinking swiftly andreaching a conclusion before Mrs.
Castle had .finished. It would not belair to Vic refuse. "I shall be
very glad to come,” she answered.
"Thank you, my dear. I will sendDean for you about seven-thirty.
And, if you don’t mind, I shall nottell Victor. It will be a little surprise. Thank you so much. Good-
When the chauffeur deposited her
at the front door of the big-house,it developed that Victor had not yetarrived, and Audrey experienced
something of a shock when Mrs.Castle accompanied her up to the
dressing room near the head of the
stairs.The older woman had changed
perceptibly. She seemed muchsmaller and there was almost a suggestion of frailty. But there was a
more subtle change, a touch of wistfulness in her quiet voice. And- itshpwed in her eyes when she re

delightful to have young people inthe house again. We have both be-,

since he went back to the city to-stay and she was denied' any hopeof his return.

BE^S, BULLS and OYSTERSDogs of various breeds, fowls,chicks, pigeons, even oysters andbees, -are unexpected items in thelivestock safely shipped from Britainoverseas during 1940. Preliminary
estimates put the total value of it at
a figure not far short of £800,000.
Seventy per cent of this is ac
counted for by horses, either for
breeding or racing. Thoroughbreds
were sent to the United States, Can
ada, South Africa, Argentina, Chile,
Brazil, Colombia, Trinidad and Bar
bados. Hunters were taken by Can
ada and U.S.A., as were Hackneys
and Clydesdale.
The U.S.A, was in fact Britain’s
biggest horse buyer by far last year
for she also took polo ponies, Shet
land ponies, Arab horses, and Suffolk
Punches.
Altogether, 1627 gorses were ship
ped from Britain during 1940, com
pared with 724 the year before and
1200 in 1938.
Cattle were the next most import
ant export, about one-sixth of the
total value. Shorthorns were sent
to U.S.A., Canada, Argentina, Uru
guay and Kenya. Of the dairy
breeds Kenya took Ayrshire* and
English Jerseys; Brazil, Ayrshire*;
Nepal, British Friesians.
Of the famous British beef breeds,
Aberdeen Angus cattle went to Can
ada and Argentina, Hereford* to
Argentina and Uruguay and a South
Devon bull to Colombia..
A feature of the sheep exports
was the growing popularity of the
Kent or Romney Marsh, breed,
which was shipped to India, Argen
tina, Chile, Peru, Uruguay and the
Falkland Islands.Argentina took the greatest var
iety of sheep breeds; in addition to
Kents her quota included Lincoln
Longwools, Hampshire Downs, Rye
lands, Southdowns, Shropshires, Bor
der Leicester* and Oxford Downs.
Canada had Suffolks, Hampshire
Downs and Southdowns; Chile, these
two last; India, in addition to Kents,
bought Southdowns, Hampshire
Downs, Border Leicesters, Cheviots
and Wensleydales; Uruguay took the
Lincoln Longwool breed; Egypt, the
Suffolk.
Pigs of the famous Large White
breed were sent to Canada.
All this livestock is valuable pedi
gree stock sent overseas for breeding
purposes: a proportion of it is being
used to maintain the standard of live
stock in countries from which food
stuffs come back to Britain.
These exports are thus making a
double contribution to Britain's war
^effort; and the £800,000 estimate of
their value.shows a big increase over
1939 when it was £683,000,

ETCHINGS OF BOMBED LONDON
A war-time vogue for British
etchings has sprung up in South
America.
In peace-time the chief demand
foi them came from the lands now
temporarily occupied by Hitler. The

success, to South America.

NEW LANCASHIRE FABRIC
Lancashire announces a new cot
ton suede fabric on the lines of
what was once made in Germany
and Czechoslovakia.
Its use* are most varied. Already
it is being made into windproof jack
ets and it is hoped to develop the
material for curtains and upholstery
fabrics to take the place of jacquard
velours and plushes from the Con
tinent.
Much new machinery has been ixu-
stalled to produce the suede which i*
being made in printed as well as ia
piece-dyed style*. It will thus b^.-
welcomed by the makers of both
slippers and gloves. _
At the party, Gerald and Betty
had been playing one of those old-
fashioned games with forfeits, and
the girl had been ordered to give the
young man ten kisses.

It is now possible to cut coal,
without any men at hand, on a steep
coal face with a gradient of 60 de
grees.
This remarkable advance in the
technique of coal mining, has been
brought about by a famous engin
eering firm in Scotland.
' The clue to |he new use of these
“irotr'men,’’ as miners in early days
called the coal-cutting machines, lie*
in the ingenious design of the hy
draulic winch which, from its posi
tion on top of the coal face, direct*
the mechanical coal-cutter with ex
treme ease and certainty. For ex
ample, the strong wire rope connect
ing the winch to the coal-cutter
draws the machine up the steep face
at any one of seven speedi.
Safety devices operate at all
point*. The pull on the rope, cannot
exceed the fixed maximum, which is
more than enough to haul the mach
ine up the face during the hardest
cutting, and, should the picks or
teeth of the cutter be blunted or
the machine be jammed by timber,
work come* to a standetill.
After a little experience, the haul-
ags operator in charge of the winch
on top of the coal face can teU how
the machine i* cutting, the hardna**
of the material and the sharpness of
the mechanical picks, aa accurately a*
if he were actually clove at hand to
the coal-cutter itself.

Potato Outlook 1941
It is anticipated that the United
States demand for Canadian seed’;
potatoes will be considerable during
the spring of 1941, although totalshipments in 1940-41 will not likely I
reach the total of one and a quarter
million bushels shipped during 1939-
40, says the Current Review of Agri
cultural Conditions. Exports to
South American countries and Cuba
were satisfactory during the fall of
1940, and a comparatively new mar
ket developed when shipments of over
%13,500 bushels were made to South
Africa.
Prices for the 1940 crop have been
low compared with 1939, although
there has been some evidence of a
seasonal rise in prices as the season
advances. Shipments from the Mari
time Provinces to Ontario have been
particalarly heavy. The low prices
have resulted largely from the pres
sure of the increased supply on the
domestic markets, but at January 2,
1941, stocks of table stock were not
excessive. Stocks of seed on the other
hand were considered higher than
usual at that time. Exports of seed
to the United States during the fall
season of 1940 were relatively low, as
a result of the large crop harvested
ia that country.

Value of MilletIn Hog RationsWith the development in recentyears of varieties of millet which
will yield large quantities of grain
or seed, the question haa arisen as
bo its feeding yalue for live stock. In
order to investigate the feeding
value of millet to hogs, an experiment
was undertaken in the summer of
1940 by the Division of Animal Hus
bandry, dominion Experimental
Farms Service. The hogs were divid
ed into three lots. Lot 1 was fed a
standard feed mixture made up of
oats, wheat, and’ barley, along with
a protein-mineral supplement. In lot
2, half tho barley fed lot 1 (the
check lot) was replaced by millet
which made up 25 per cent of the
grain part of the ration. In lot 3,
millet replaced all the barley fed lot
1, that is, millet comprised 50 per:
cent of the grain ration.
The results of the experiment in
dicated that millet, when comprising
up to 50 per cent of the grain ration,
compares very favorably with barleyin the production zof bacon hogs. In
fact, in rate of grain, the millet-fed
hogs exceeded the standard (check
lot, No. 1,) while in feed utilization,
that is, the amount of feed required
to make a pound of grain, there was
little to choose between any of the
lots. The'quality of the carcasses
produced by millet was almost up to
that of the barley-fed lot, the only
difference J>eing that tho millet-fed
pigs were inclined to be slightly
shorter.

Harold Lucas, first vice-presidentof the Middlesex branch Federationof Agriculture, and Ed. Bond, director of Mount Biydges, were thespeakers at an evening meeting heldunder the auspices' of th CrumlinWomen’s Institute. The speakers setforth the chief aims of the federation as being a “square deal” for the
farmer and prices more on a levelwith the earning of industry and
labor, which were largely based on1926-29 figures. The farmers wereurged to establish a strong organiz
ation by co-ordination of the variousgroups and phases of agriculture intoone united factor and by stickingfirmly to the principles of the. federation regardless of politics. It washoped to presently station a man atOttawa to represent the farmers*interests. During the evening pleasing vocal duets were rendered by
Mias Marilyn, and Master BeverlyGumb of Thorndale and a piano number by Miss Annie Baskerville ofCrumlin. Following the programme
refreshments were served. by theW. 1.
The February meeting of the Women's Institute was held on Thursday
afternoon at the home of Mrs. R.Jelly with a good attendance ofmembers and visitors, and the president, Mrs. J. Oliver, presiding. Themeeting opened with the Institute
Ode and the Lord’s Prayer in unison.The motto was given by Misa Jennie
Calvert and was entitled, "The BeatDoctors are Dr. Diit, Dr. Quiet andDr. Merryman." The roll call waaanswered by a baby picture of>e*chmember, this being* fallowed later by
a contest of namh^r the pictures.Mrs. Erwin Wallis favored with a

A decline in price* of grain in
1940 caused a drop in the index of
farm product prices, states the Cur
rent Review of Agricultural Condi
tions in Canada. On the other hand,
wholesale prices gained slightly dur
ing the year and at the dose were
-about two points higher. An inerts*-
in wholesale prices is expected in
1941, and some improvement is anti-,
cipated in prices of farm products,
particularly live stock and animal
products.

Reports On War Savings
Campaign Across Canada
Reports from every last corner of
Canada on the progress of the cur
rent War Savings Campaign indicate
that the average citizen is taking a
tremendous interest in the home
front battle to secure two million
regular War Savers.
First reports cause committee of
ficials to believe that the smaller
communities in Canada are setting
the pace for larger centres. In Hil
ton, a little prairie town in Mani
toba, the first canvasser .made seven
calls. When be had completed them
he had seven pledges. Three of the
seven had pledged themselves to in-
uvesl' a total of 1,220 dollars’ worth
of certificates during the year.
Out in Regina, some 250 men, in
cluding reserve platoon of veteran
Home Guards assigned their entire
pay, nearly $18.00 each, to the pur
chase of War Saving* Certificate*.
They invested a total of more than
$1600.
One message, considered mo® sig
nificant by committee executive, re
ported twelve Regina firms in which
one hundred per cent of their em
ployees have signed pledges yielding
a’ total of 2,315 dollar* per month.
Sine*- this comes from 463 workers,
the average monthly pledge for this
'group is $5.00.
Typical example of the general
trend is the action of a sport* club
in, a Nova Scotia town, which con
verted its sinking fund into certifi
cates.
Civil servants throughout N«w
Brunswick are pressing home the
campaign among their own'members.
While members in all service* have
already joined the Payroll Saving*
Plan, * strong effort ia being made
to secure one hundred per cent co
operation.
While grownup* are buying certi
ficates, Canadian children are in
creasing their purchase of stamp*.
In one public school in Quebec, 36
teachers and 1,000 pupils have sal
vaged three tons of waste paper and
Vr300 bottles. These they have sold,
the money being converted into
War Saving* Stamp*.
