RED STAR CHEESEFACTORY DESTROYED Fire Friday Afternoon Causes Over $22,000 Loss as Cheese Factory nnd Barn of Os­ mond Clifton, West Zorra, Are Completely Gutted. One of the most serious fire lossesin this district in some time caused,damage in excess of $22,000 last Friday afternoon, August 21st, whenthe Red Star Cheese Factory, owned and operated by Lloyd Brown WestZorra Township, about six ntilesnorth of Ingersoll, was completely destroyed and sparks from that con­flagration set fire to the large barn of Osmond Clifton, about a quartermile north, on the opposite side ofthe road, and burned it to the ground with all the season’s crops.Melvin Cuthbert who lives on the first farm north of the Red Star fac­tory, on the same side of the road, about 5 o’clock Friday afternoon,noticed smoke and flames comingfrom the boiler room of the fac­ tory, which was a separate buildingto the south west of the factory,and notified the proprietor, Lloyd Brown who with Ken. Carey, thecheese maker, Robert McDonald and Dick Blades and Watson Muir wereworking in the factory at the timeand who were unaware of the fire A call was put in to the IngersollFire Department and the people of the district were contacted by tele­phone to render assistance. When thefire was«observed in the boiler room it had gained such headway that thehose from the pressure water system could not be used.A bucket brigadeattempted to save the factory, but a high south west wind fanned theflames on the main factory buildingand it was only by heroic efforts ofthe neighbors that the house, which.was only thirty feet from the fac­ tory, was saved as the wind fannedthe flames in a northerly direction. The large barn of Osmond Clifton,which stood nearly a quarter of amile north of the factory on the east side of the road, was directly inthe path of the wind and sparks and burning embers from the factorywere blown on the shingle roof ofthe barn and every attempt to save it proved futile. It too was com­pletely destroyed with all the sea­ sons crops including about 70 tonsof hay and 2000 bushels of grainwhich had been threshed the dayprevious. This loss alone is estimatedat over $6000.00 with only about $3,000.00 insurance.The Red Star cheese factory wasone of the district's landmarks. It was 87 years old and was the oldestoriginal cheese factory building in this district. It was built in 1855and for half a century had been inthe Brown family. Nearly 52 years ago it was taken over from the lateJames Ireland, by James Brown, who now lives retired on Victoriastreet here, and was operated byhim until he turned it over to hisson. Lloyd- Brown in 1924.In 1938 the factory was exten­sively remodelled by Mr. LloydBrown and at the time of the fire was regarded as one of the mostmodernly eluipped factories in Wes­tern Ontarif. About 25 cheese a day were being made there. A modernrefrigeration system was installed in th factory-and some 160 cold storagelockers were rented to district resi­dents and these were all filled at the time of the fire resulting in a heavylow to their owners as the goods stored there were not covered by in­surance.In speaking to The Tribune onTuesday, Mr. Brown stated thatthere were about 105 cheese in stoi- age at the time of the fire. He Es­timated the loss at over $16,000.00which he stated was only partially covered' by insurance. When ques­tioned as to his intentions of re­building he said this depended en­ tirely on whether he could get mat­erials but if it were possible he would rebuild at once. He spokeappreciatively of the assistance ren­dered by the people of the districtin saving the house. There was noth­ing saved from the fire and the ruins were still smouldering on Tue*daydespite a heavy rain that visited thedistrict over the week-end.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 27th, 1942 Help For University Students The University of Western On­ tario has been notified that the need for trained personnel in Canada’s ■war effort is so great that the Dom­ inica Department of Labour will­ing to provide financial aid '’$1^ the form of loans to full-time students of University grade (other than first year students) registered in a course leading to a degree. Students in Medicine who sign a written wit­ nessed agreement that they will en­ list in the armed forces when they enter the scond last year of their course; students in science (physics, chemistry, mathematics) and engin­ eering who sign a written wit­ nessed agreement that on graduation they will make their services avail­ able to the national war effort where needed in the capacity for which they have been trained^ will te granted loans not exceeding 9300 each a year. The candidates for these loans are to be selected by a com­ mittee in the University on the basis of academic merit plus financial need. ' Such selection shall’be con­ fined to those who without assist­ ance could not continue their Uni­ versity course. No interest is to be charged on any loan until the re­ cipient has left or graduated from the University. The loan shall be used for those purposes which shall be most beneficial to the student such as the payment of tuition and other fees, for board and lodging and the purchase of text books.. In times of war the maximum effort is expected of every man and every woman. The highest training and the best qualifications are de­ manded not only by the State, but by all phases of industry and com­ merce. This is why a college or uni­ versity training is so vital and so urgent. The Garden Party held under theauspices of the Soldiers’ League on the school grounds, Wednesday,was a great success. The First Hus­sars Band of London furnished the program. The supply of produce at the mar­ket on Saturday was good. Potatoessold at 50c a peck; cabbage, 10c each; cucumbers, 25c a small bas­ket; corn, 20 cents a dozen;brambleberries, 23c a box; butter, 47c per lb.; eggs, 45c per doz. *• There is a heavy toll of the men<rcm Ingersoll vicinity in the recentcasualty list.

Cheese Production Maintains Increase Cheese production continues to show a phenomenal increase over a year ago. In June, output was 26 per cent over June, 1941. For the six-month period of 1942, 83.2 mil­ lion pounds were produced, compar­ ed with 59.2 million pounds in 1941, an increase of 65.6 per cent. Cheesepryduction during the winter months was considerably above normal, as more cheese factories operated throughout the entire winter than usual. Many factories which did not operate throughout the entire winter commenced operations earlier in the spring than was the custom. The contract price of 20 cents per pound, plus Dominion payments on high scoring cheese and the Ontario two cents per lb. bonus, are giving the cheese patron the highest return for many years. Production during th* next few months, says the July issue of tfte Current Review of Ag­ ricultural Conditions in Canada, may • not eyqerd the output in the corres­ ponding months of 1941 by as great a percentage as in the early months o? 1942, but a continued high out- •put is expected. There does not seem to be any difficulty in sight in fill­ ing the British agreement of 125 million pounds by March 31' of 1943.

O T TA W AWEEK BY WEEK— By Doan Wilson —POLITICAL AWAKENING ,There are only two vacant Beatsin Canada’s Parliament where by­elections will be necessary probablybefore next session. One is Winni­peg, North-Centre, which was ren­dered vacant by the death of J. S.Woodsworth, and the other isCharlevoix-Saguenay, where Hon.Pierre Casgrain resigned from theCabinet to go on the bench. An­ other seat involves a case where amember who was unseated by court, namely, R. G. Davidson, Stanstead,but no writ may be given out untilthe- House of Commons’ committee reports on it and this has not beendone. Nevertheless, there is much discussion behind the scenes alongParliament Hill about the politicalactivities of all parties at the pre­ sent time. The Conservatives areholding a conference in Port Hope,Ontario, and it is generally ex­ pected that this will producesome progressive plans for the party. The C. C. F. party is veryactive throughout the country, par­ticularly at this time in Saskatche­ wan, Ontario and Quebec, with thispolitical movement showing defin­ ite signs of increasing strength onthe national scale. Although it isclaimed the visit of the Hon. J. G. Gardiner, Minister of Agriculture,to the West right at the end of thelast session was not any move ofpolitical significance, yet there are.sound opinions to the contrary. DELIBERATION ON PUBLICITY If is apparent in the pation’s cap­ital that the subject of Canadianpublicity of the war effort is underserious consideration once again bythe Government since Charles Vin­ ing, who investigated the matterfor the Federal Cabinet and whosereport Premier King refused to table in Parliament, has held severalimportant conferences in the capi­tal lately. It is expected that prac­ tical results in the form of a changein, the present set-up may emanatefrom these deliberations. NO OTHER REASON In face of suggestions to the con­trary, yet the Department of Fin­ ance in Ottawa is putting out atwelve-sided five cent coin with noother object but to replace the pres­ ent coin which used up much valu­able nickel since a hundred five cent pieces weigh a pound of solid nickel.The substitution of copper and zincin these coins will save at least fifty tons of nickel a year. Likewise,there is no intention V at present to call in the five cent cbfns^of nickelnow in circulation. THE PEOPLE AND THEIRMONEY No Extra Sugar For Pickling Extra sugar will not be. allowed for home pickling, according to an announcement made by the district Prices and Suppy Representative of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. \ The official pointed out that there have been a number of applications for extra sugar for pickling but if persons wish to use sugar for this purpose they must take the same out of their present allotment. Industries canning piekies will have their demands limited to 70 per cent of the amount of sugar they used last year. This applies only to firms who were in business in 1941. William Hutchison of Princeton, has harvested 1,200 bushels ofwheat from 39 acres and sold it for92.30 a bushel, netting him the handsome sum of nearly 13,000,which entirely disperses the theorythat “there is no money in farming.” The marriage of Mias Beatrice James of Dereham Township, toMr. Thomas Williams of Ingersoll,was solemnized at the Baptist par­ sonage, Ingersoll, on Wednesday,August 29th, 1917, by Rev. JosephJanes, M.A. Miss Annie Vance, formerly of Ing­ersoll, was married to Phillip Thorpe,in Toronto on Saturday, August 26,by Rev. Ronald MoEchem. The Barraelaugh Shoe Store haschanged hands after enjoying the patronage of this community formany years. R. J. Johnson of Ixandon,is the new proprietor. Miss Kathleen Gibson Is visiting with relatives in Toronto. Arthur Simmons of St. Thomas,was visiting relatives at DerehamCentre, on Saturday. When it was announced in Ottawathat Canadians .would receive a cost of living bonus amounting in theaggregate to about ' $1,000,000 a week because the official cost of liv-ing index had risen 2.4 poinusince wage and price controls were created in October, 1941, the man-in-the-street throughout Canada be­ gan to realize the grim wartimetruth that not only unprecedentedheavy taxation of all classes but drastic controls are the surest meansof preventing inflation and economic disaster. In other words, in face ofthe thorough and unique control system over wages and prices inCanada, yet an index rise of 2.4 per cent or points in the cost of living,would seem to be enough reasonfor uneasiness and doubt about the efficiency of the economic ceilings,especially since even under normal conditions without controls such anincrease in such a period of time would be termed considerable andominious. But the headlines in the news, papers do not tell this story freefrom obscurities and doubtful mean­ ings, because, if the situation orcircumstances are studied properlyalong Parliament Hill in their true perspective, it is discovered that thedrastic economic control system in Canada has been somewhat quitesuccessful so far in stopping a per-tinacious inflationary movement andm providing economic or monetarystability of a kind that has neverbeen more favourable in the econ­ omic history of any nation at war. indeed, the drastic controls overwages and prices were a daring and new experiment and they were insti-tuted in Canada at a proper strate- 122a ThS f>cU indic«t« beyond‘h,\ KOBdww ut anX that prices Miv Wer‘‘ sta rt‘nr to rise rap- tO .Carn n’oro “nd with •Sp1end T10** and m ore 12 logical conclusion that intime confusion and chaos wouldhave been widespread m the econ- 2 * d ~stic control»m om «T “ J W lhe ‘L’hould •* Points out•t tins time that this m not lneZ_ h ^at’7n n°r Pa™do’- There is a °f “"^rtainty ortion^th™ ’UCh eccnom ic opera­ tion than there « >a the military X "UOn ”nLCe- element of J ’^^^h o u rt/^n an riJ fc're. ** S * mXustn ^/aon ^ lx ? « ”re‘them, yet in actuality it X2S L!2 'n th>t pric«U ”ntro«ed much morer**d* JTOth>r* th* impulses of per­ ron,. Thw meat, that it b withinfiitio7a.m/f po“ibil*ty to brake in­ flation and to create economic stab­ility by policies of control, though he people of Canada may become tax and control slaves for the dur­ation so that they may be free men and women after thia war.It does not even require a veter­ an observer to be gifted with a silver tongue or to be possessed ofgreat persuasive power to depict what happened since the wage andprice control system was Institutedby the Government in Ottawa. First,the workers’ wages have been pro­tected because they offered a defin­ite and fixed degree of security interms of purchasing power. Sec­ond, the primary producers havebeen protected as to the securityof prices. Third, the manufacturershave been protected both in regardto prices and wages.Then again; in actual practice thesuccess of Canada’s control system so far has been obvious because ofany comparison with the state ofaffairs in the United States andGreat Britain, Just before Canadaestablished her remafrkable • control system, that is in September, 1941,the cost of living in Great Britainhas risen 28 per cent at a time when the index in this respect in Canadawas 114.6, with Great Britain’s in­ dex having risen since then morethan 2.4 points reported for Canada.The United States Jhas had a make­ shift control system so far but costshave risen very high in certain dir­ections, with the authorities in Washington studying the Canadiancontrol system very closely because they really believe that it is the bestpossible protection against Inflationat the moment.Of course, the drastic controlsystem over wages and prices can be perfect as a defence systemagainst inflation and the present sy­stem has many problems which are unfamiliar to the man-in-the-stree*.with the biggest problem right nowbeing in regard to farm commoditiesand their relationship to the rise inthe cost of living. It does not imply that the wage and price control as adefence system against inflation hasbeen penetrated seriously by the rise of 2.4 points in the cost of liv­ing index or the extension of bonus payments. In fact, the authoritiesclaim that the increase in foodprices are due 87 per cent alone to beef and potatoes and in view ofthe huge demands of the markets inCanada, in United States and GreatBritain this situation in regard toagricultural products was not en­tirely unexpected.When higher prices were availablefn the United States market, beef was sent there in large quantitiesbut this has been stopped since'War­ time Foods Limited bought cattlesupposed to go : to that market atthe propei' prices and turend them over as beef to the domestic marketat Canadian prices. Though whole­sale beef prices were regulated, yet the prices of cattle themselves werenot directly controlled. Then again,beef prices have gone up becausebeef was used extensively instead ofpork which was in turn exported in tremendous quantities to GreatBritain, with the contract to Sep­ tember, 1942, involving an exportto Britain of no less than 600,000,-000 pounds of bacon and hams. Moreover, the export to Britain ofbeef itself has been increased over 50 per cent in recent years.Though potatoes were not origin? ally under the ceiling jjet potatoes’were put under in February. Ashortage required a higher ceiling for new potatoes. Last year therewas a short potato crop but the pros­ pects are good for this year.It is enough to report that evenm the current problem of foodprices, which are being blamed somuch for the new increase in the cost of living index in Canada, thecomparison is favourable to the control system so far in this war.i" . ? Xin,t tI,ree y«ars of the lastWorld War, 1914, 1917, food prices rose 41.1 per cent, but in the sameperiod of this war the rise has beenonly 24.6 per cent by 1942, with the main differences between the twopercentages arising from the factthat in the last World War threeproducts alone, namely, beans, po­ tatoes and eggs rose 116.9,96.2 and74.3 respectively by 1917 but in thiswar by 1942 no such spectacular price increases have occurred com-paratively as only a limited rise has taken place in nine products, name­ly, beef, veal, cheese, rice, prunes,tea. coffee, white vinegar and bacon.In addition, immediately after thethe last World War, food prices rose rapidly, but the present controlsystem should provide a check on >ny such spectacular movementafter this war is finished. In short,the point to bear in mind for the man-m-the-street is that Canada’sdefence system against inflation isbeing maintained in a remarkable manner and not only compares mostfavourably with all other systems in all other countries at war but evenwith our own record in this respectin the past.—(Reproduction- Prohi­bited.)

The rule of thumb has been abandoned with therationing of tea and coffee. Every tea leaf and every ground of coffeemust now be made to count. Thenaw regulations of the WartimePrices and Trade Board allow one ounce of tea OR four ounces ofcoffee (not both) per person, perweek, for those over 12 yean of age. The tea quota allows enoughfor 12 cups and the coffee quota for30 cups during the week. In the ease of coffee concentrates or substi­tute*, your ration coupon will allowthe purchase of a quantity suffldentto make 12 cups. There are several factors thatmay make a great difference In stretching out your allowance—theblend, the grind or grade, the pot,the measurement*, the temperature,of water, the steeping and storagemethod. GENERAL DIRECTIONS ; 1 Buy freshly ground coffee. A*k your grocer to grind it mediumcourse for boiled coffee, fine lot.the percolator and extra fine forthe drip or vacuum. (Gl**« vacuum coffee-makers require avery finely ground coffer so thatall the flavour is drawn out)2^ Store in ’an absolutely clean container with a tight-fitting hd,preferably a glass jar. Exposureto air cause* a k>«s of flavour. 3 Keep coffee in the lower part ofthe electric refrig rotor; groundcoffee will keep it* flavour longerin a cold atmosphere Keep teain a dry place. 4 Measure water and tea (or eof-fee) aRurately—with a meas­ uring spoon and an eight-ounee th* waUrto a full boil. as. actively boiling water release* the be»t coffeeflavour. 5 Make only ** much tea or eoffeeas you wish to serve If at any time you do have some tea er coffee left over, store it in a cov­ered jar and place in the elec­ tric refrigerator to serve as aniced drink or flavouring for amilk shake, punch or dessert. 6 Steep tea or coffee at least 5min., instead of the usual 2 mins.Using a glass coffee maker,steeping is done by allowing thwcoffee and water to remain In the upper bowl for 6 mln. by leavingon the warm element. This extra steeping will give you good re­sult* from less coffee. 7 Never fail to wash the inside of /the eoffee maker or teapot ‘ scrupulously clean with bakingsoda and water—using a brush for the spouts, Any used filterbag must be thoroughly washed;a coffee bag with the remains of former coffee, makings will ruinthe fresh coffee flavour. TAKE A TIP1 If you use both tea and coffee and have 2 ration cards in yourhome, use one card for tea andone for coffee. 2. Black tea is made from f rmen-ting the tender te? 'uvea;green tea ia unfermented tea; "orange pekoe" refer* to thesize of the leaf not a particularflavour or grade.
