The following interesting letter
has been received by the Kiwanis
Club from Corporal C F. Hodgett:
Sicily, 16th August, 1943
To the Members of the Ingersoll
Kiwanis Club:
Dear Friends—I am very pleased
to say that yesterday I received your
three hundred cigs., which were post
marked 13th April. Gosh they sure
took a long time to catch up with
me. They say a “rolling stone gath
ers no moss,” but please do not
blame me for the rolling. It just had
to be done. I hope you can find my
most sincere thanks for the cigs, in
these few lines, i. -
By now, you ail will have heard
that we are in a different part of
the Globe to what we were when I
last wrote you. Anyway, I am glad
to say that I had an uneventful voy
age and am now enjoying the heat
and the dust of this island, Sicily.
We have travelled many miles and
I can assure you that most of the
troops have swallowed many ounces
of Sicilian dust. Some parts of the
towns, are exempt from the latter.
We, (I mean the Ingersoll boys),
are anxiously waiting for the time
when we can drivo on No. 2 High
way. There are several Ingersoll
boys in thia are*, and I see them
daily. They often want to buy some
of the commodities that we have in
the Auxiliary Services.
We are fortunate in being able to
pick grapes off the vines, with a few
unripe peaches and green oranges.
Oh, for the “Niagara Fruit Belt” It
just makes our mouthy, water to .
think of same. Maybe we shall be
able to visit the belt again, who
knows? ,
Well, until that “Great Day” j
arrives, I will say Cheerio. Thanking .
you all once again, and trusting this ;finds you all 'and your ’families
joying good health.'
I remain, yours sincerely,
Charlie.

TAKE A TIP:
Apples and vegetables from the
small gardens must be carefully
stored tjhis year, since imported
vegtables j»re expensive and pro
cessed vegetables are not available

1. The storage space is most
important. A separate room in the
basement of your home with a win
dow in it is advisable.
2. Do not hang cabbages upside
down, unless the temperature is
close to freezing, because moisture
collects in the leaves causing
growth.
3. Store pumpkin and squash by
wrapping well in two folds of paper.
Only dry and well matured ones
will keep.
4. Dry onions should be stored
ih a temperature of 40‘-50* just
above freezing.
. 5. Carrots, beets and turnips
should not be washed. t)ry and pack
in leaves or sand in a dark but ven
tilated room; keep at 38". Use a

You’ll find this treatment is effect

to remember—most people, when
they clean their refrigerator, neglect

vent the hot grease from popping

colander over the pan. It’s little

and it can be washed out quickly
and easily afterwards in soapy-rich,

FIRST REAL CANADIAN MONEY
Canada’s first dollar bills were issued by the Bank of Montreal
which began business in 1817. Up to that time, only foreign cur
rencies were in circulation in Canada, and as the country had no
money of its own, most domestic business was done by barter.
The illustration on the 82 bill it believed to represent one of
the steamboats, belonging to the Honourable John Molson, that
plied on the St. LawTence at the time. Mr. Molson, who was the
most outstanding merchant of Montreal in the early part of the
nineteenth century, was president of the Bank of Montreal from
1826 to 1334.
If you?re at all conservation-
minded, you’ve probably tried to
think of a use for napless powder
puffs and failed completely. They’re
certainly too small to use as dusters,
and it would take decades to save
enough to make a quilt. Hold on a
minute though! They’re very handy
for cleaning silverware. Just apply
the polish with one, and use another
to do the buffing. Be sure, however,
that they’re thoroughly clean. Wash
them out after every using, in

That .clean bright, cheery look is
the very reason you decided to slip
cover your chairs in the first place,
isn’t it? So keep that look about
them. Suds them often because most
slip-covers can take it. Before wash
ing, shake and brush them free of
dust, and baste the pleats’ in place.
This will simplify the ironing and
make perfect pleats. Make the job
of washing them a quick, careful
one. No presoaking, and wash no
more than five minutes in gentle,
fine-fabric suds that arc safe for
anything safe in water alone. For
stubborn spots work in dry flakes
with fingers. Then rinse thoroughly
and use turkish towels to help you
get the water out Don’t, whatever
you do, let. slip-covers lie around
damp. When you're ready to hang
them to dry, use two or more par
allel clotheslines and pin the pieces
to both of them. This helps to dry
them smoothly and quickly and in
chair or davenport shape. It also
prevents ugly sagging, which iron
ing or fitting won’t correct.

concrete replica of the cheese wTU
unveiled by Dr. J. A. Ruddick, who
had supervised \he work of collecting
and pressing, the curd for the famous
cheese.
The cheese was the product of
several Lanark County Cheesemak

ed, it was estimated that the quan
tity of milk used would produce
about 22,000 pounds of cheese.
Publicity for the Canadian cheese
industry, which )xas the reasojn for
the mammoth cheese, was obtained
in full measure from* the time the
chpese 'left the Perth station on a
special train and this publicity was
given an extra spurt when the
cheese crashed through the floor of
the exposition building as -it was
being moved to the space prepared
fo^it. Size was not the only, quali
fication of the cheese for Lt won the
Exposition's Diploma* and Bronze
Medal.
Later the cheese was shipped to
London, England, where if was cut
with considerable ceremony in the
spring of 1894.
It is interesting to note,that the
nearest approach in size to this
cheese was the 7000 pounder made
here in Ingersoll in 1866.
DRAMATIC SUDDENNESSEver since Prime Minister Mackenzie King had indicated what pos
ition or attitude his Government
would take in regard to holding of
a general election in this country,
this statement had only failed to
clear the political air. Indeed, it had
actually intensified the political at
mosphere along Parliament Hill and
the result had been that such polit
ical speculations or activities have
increased in scope and intensity be
cause there has been a strong feel
ing in opposing political camps that
Premier King had revealed in reality
that it was quite possible under cer
tain circumstances a federal elec
tion could be called in Canada with
dramatic suddenness, depending up
on developments in the war, particu
larly in the event of a sudden end
of the war or any other entirely
unexpected immediate occurrence.
Speculations on such occurrences are
only speculations. However, specu
lations on the possibilities of a sud
den general election have been rel
evant in political circles by the
strong statement made at a gather
ing in Ottawa by E. J. Jolliffe,
C.C.F. leader in Ontario who warned
amongst other things that a general
election in Canada may be called at
any time.
LIVELY DISCUSSIONS
There has been lately consider
able discussion behind the scenes
along Parliament Hill about post
war plans or preparations . on the
part of the Federal Government
with reports at home and abroad
being suggestive of some of the ac
tivities in the next session of Can
ada’s Parliament and being suggest
ive that the Government of Canada
may have to formulate sooner or
later some specific policies on immi
gration as part of its plans and pre
parations for the post-war period,
particularly since there had been
much dissatisfaction for many years
regarding this country’s immigra
tion policies. However, lately there
have been reports outside Ottawa
as well as talk behind the scenes in
the nation's capital that immigration
conditions will likely change after
this war since there have been in
dications that large scale immigra
tion to Canada will be sought not
only from the British Isles but from
the European continent as well as
other parts of the globe, though
there has been no concrete evidence
so far in Ottawa that there will be
any radical changes of immigration
policies immediately or that there will
be any startling changes until the
situation as a whole will be capable
of the most careful examination in
light of the now international set
up after this war, .with a hint of
suchlpossible changes of policies
being contained perhaps in the de
velopment in the United States
where a movement has been made
to change the exclusion order against
the Chinese,
WAR PLANTS AND LAY-OFFS
In view of the complaints or alle
gations heard in labor circles on ac
count of a number of lay-offs of
workers in war plants in Canada,
including the occurrence in one war
plant where between 400 and 500
workers were said to have been
affected, it has been disclosed by
usually well-informed sources in the
nation’s capital’ that order cancella
tions or temporary changes in war
industries forced ’such inevitable
effects, with the point being stressed
strongly that the labor situation as
a whole has been only, very slightly
affected by these lay-offs, that wor
kers have to be absorbed on other
employment in the same industry if
possible, or in other essential war
.work.. and that such continuous
changes have to be expected in ac
cordance with the requirements or
developments in the war.
TWO EXTENSIONS
Ever since Canada’s Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court in Ottawa, Sir
Lyman Duff, had reached the usual
age for withdrawal from active du
ties on the nation’s highest Bench,
that is seventy-five years of age, it
has been deemed advisable in the
best interests to continue his term on
nd less than two previous occasions,
though numerous stories had been
heard about likely successors to this
to^> position* on the Canadian Bench
with the second prolongation of his
term supposed to end in January of
1944.'
REMARKABLE RECORD
Attention has been drawn to the
report that though ’Canada has been
paying about one-half of the war
costa out of current tax collections
m compared with only $0 per cent
in the United States, yet when Canada’s last victory loan was held inthe spring about 40 per cent of thewar loan had been purchased by in
dividuals and this had shown that
2,660,000 subscriptions were obtain
ed, or one for each 4% persons of
this country. This has made a very
deep impression in view of the Octo
ber 51,200,000,000 objective in
Canada’s Fifth Victory Loan which
has an equivalence to the $15,000,-
000,000 objective of the/UnitedStates Third War Loanf though
Canada’s record of meeting its war
costs out of current tax collectionsis much higher than the/ United
States. \
INSURANCE ON PUBLIC
PROPERTIES
When the Minister of Public
Works, Hon. Alphonse Fournier, re
ported the amount of war risk in
surance taken out by the Govern
ment in Ottawa, he revealed that
amount to be then *179,160,470 on
properties valued at $199,067,189,
or 90 per cent risk with the
premium being $270,000. The in
sured properties included harbours
and river works, public buildings in
and out of Ottawa, expropriated
properties in the capital furniture
and rented quarters in and outside
Ottawa, National Art Gallery’s works
of art, Canadian war memorial col
lections and so forth.

THE COMING OF
PEACE
— by —
Eveline A. Long
The teeming millions of the earth’s
people are awaiting the coming of
peace. The end of the armed
struggle, they see as terminating in
the overthrow of the Totalitarians,
but not all of us see that much to
be desired event as the beginning of
a peaceful world. A peace of the
kind we are all hoping for, the kind
that the Four Freedoms outlined for
us, is not won by the mere cessation
of ,war. It has to be planned for,
worked for, and that unceasingly.
Even now, when the end of the
struggle looms nearer, when super
ior might, superior numbers, and
superior facilities of every kind are
said to be in the hands of the Allies,
dissention appears among them.
There are signs that the perpetual
Struggle for the supremacy of trade
among the nations is still thy one
concern of the politian who must
have fine promises to present to
electorate in order to win fine votes.
It makes no difference to them* if,
to gain the approval of powerful
backers they create dissention among
friends. They are willing to distort
or malign an allied nation’s motives,
simply to curry favour with the per
ennial haters. If this is to go on,
with each ally eying suspiciously the
actions of every other ally, how can
peace be, even if the war be won?
If we cannot trust one another now,
when we each need,the other desper
ately in order to finish, the fighf,
which the enemy so nearly won, how
expect trust and co-operation after
the war is done? The problems of
the Peace are going to be vast
enough, without trouble in our own
ranks to make them more difficult,
and just as the war is going to be
won by a pooling of resources, the
harmonious working together of the
various services of the combined for
ces and the generous contribution
of money and work from countless
^usands of little people, so in the
same way can the peace be won.
Individuals have submitted with a
certain amount of grace to stringent
regulations; have given up regula
tions; have given up here and there,
some of their prized rights; have
saved and lent money they would
have enjoyed spending, and, have
made sacrifice of life and limb, in
order to put an end to a devastating
war. What individuals can do, na
tions can do. They too can bef regu
lated if a sufficiently strong] force
be elected to see it done. The rugged
one who stretches ont his rapacious
individualist among the nations, the
paw to seize another's land or an
other's commerce, can be controlled,
if he knows he is going to bare to
fight the rest of the world to do it
If selfishness among people and
among nations isn’t to be exercised
by persuasion, then they must be
taught that selfishness and greed
are no longer to be blandly allowed,
as we allowed the, rape of Ethiopia.
It is quite probably that a stern de
termination and a very little force
will teach them that self-interest
will be better served by playing safe
and. agreeing that discretion is the
better part of valour.
Self-interest, both individual and

Crate Fed Chickens
Worth More Money
In the keen demand for poultry
during wartime, crate fattening of
chickens before marketing is apt to
be overlooked. This means a mone
tary loss to the poultryman and less
value to the consumer. The chief
advantages of crate fattening are
that chickens gain more weight in
the same time on less feed while
being fattened in crates than they do
on range; they grade higher and sell
for more cents per pound than un
fattened low grade birds; properly
fattened chickens of Grade A Milk-
fed quality are the "repeat order”
birds; their flesh is more tender and
has a more pleasing flavour; and
the fat that can be interspersed by
crate fattening through the tissues
under the skin is far more useful in
a culinary way than is excess fat in
the abdomen.
A recipe for a typical fattening
ration is made up of equal parts of
finely ground oats, wheat, barley or
buckwheat mixed into a fairly thin
batter with sour milk. The chickens
should be fed twice a day, with
water or milk available for the birds
to drink during the day.
All birds do not fatten in the
same period of time. Some of the
birds will be properly finished before
the others. It is good feeding prac>
tice, say the Dominion poultry auth
orities, to separate the poor feeders
from the heavy feeders and give the
poor feeders a few days extra in the
crates.

The return to Canada of a pro
portion of the Canadian Forestry
Corps from lumbering operations in
the United Kingdom is announced
by National Defence H.Q. The Brit
ish Government haa agreed that the
output of timber for the war effort
of the United Nation* can be in
creased by using these stout fellows
in the forests throughout Canada
where the resources and quality of
timber are better than those now
available in Great Britain. Lumber is
one of the "musts" for the United
Kingdom now as always.
Ottogoseip: The City of Ottawa
is studying a post-war program in
volving 3900,000 -worth of new
sewers and 26% miles of new pave
ment and sidewalk costing another
$900,000 . . . Construction is start
ing on a new 80,000 square foot>an
nex to house Ottawa’s largest cafe
teria which will feed 7,000 civil
servants . . . There is such a demand
for conversational Russian that a
class is being started by the High
School of Commerce ... A staff of
400 at national registration head
quarters keeps busy, making some
133,000 changes a month in the re
cords of about nine million Canad
ians.
A few highlights of the Joint
Agricultural Committee meeting
recently completed in Washington:
Conclusion was reached that an ex
pansion in output of certain pro
ducts is possible, but increase in
over-all production is limited by
acreage, manpower, equipment, fer
tilizer. Particular attention was paid
to suggested increase in U.S. wheat
acreage from 54 million acres in
1943 to 68 million next year, made
imperative by abnormal disappear
ance of wheat currently for feed
and industrial alcohol. Maintenance
of dairy production by using grain
and protein feeds was stressed, with
preservation of total food value in
milk best accomplished by convert
ing as much as possible into cheese,
dried milk, etc. Canadian members
pointed out needed expansion in
this country included special crops as
oil crops. Peas and beans were con
sidered well suited for relief-feeding
in liberated areas.
The Consumer Branch of the
W.P.T.B. in Ottawa under the dir
ection of Byrne Hope Saunders,
better known as Chatelaine's editor,
are asking Canadian women to fam
iliarize themselves with the working
of retail meat charts. Initiated into
the ways of charts through the beef
order of the W.P.T.B., the job of
shopping for meat is now further
simplified by the addition of a lamb
chdrt^ which wall show the ceiling
price of any cut at lamb. Any wo
man who doesr/t know her cuts, can
learn to distinguish between loin rib
roast, leg or breast of lamb by
studying the cutting chart, accom
panying all price charts. Featuring
slightly lower prices than those
which have prevailed, the lamb seems
a break for the nation's biggest cat
erers, the housewives.
Odds and Ends: Good fur catches
for the Eskimos have made them
fork over income tax; Mounted Pol
ice fill out forms, make necessary
assessments . . . Maybe it’s the
greater purchasing power, but Can
adians are biting into plenty of
meat, with a moderate increase in
1942 over 1941. The estimated per
capita consumption of all meats (in
cluding offals) in 1942 was 135.2
pounds, an up of two pounds over
the previous year . . . Ban against
Jehovah's Witnesses, Technocracy,
Inc., and Ukrainian Labor-Farmer
Temple lifted . . . Canada’s rehabil
itation plan, for men and women of
the Armed Services, including finan-'
cial aid and vocational training for
all veterans, is ahead of all other
parts of the British Commonwealth
and Empire, being used as a model
for similar planning in the U.S.A.,
says Major H. M. Bell, Veterans’
Welfare Officer. Pensions and
Health, Ottawa . . The Canadian Red
Cross Society has undertaken to pro
vide 100,000 parcels of food . for
French prisoners of war in Germany,
as well as medical supplies and vita
mins for children and nursing moth
ers Jn -Poland . . . The new -synthetic
rubber tires are very apt to go
“boom" at over 35 m.p.h., at over
load, or if tires should be under-in
flated, is warning from rubber con
troller. Big truck kind is most liable
to give trouble if used improperly.
The order by the department of
labour declaring the* meat packing
industry essential to the war and
national interest has a background.
It has been estimated that meat
packing plants in Canada will pro
duce the astounding volume of 1,
577,000,000 pounds of meat pro
ducts during 1943. Of this an estim
ate is that nearly 50 per cent will
go directly into distribution for
war purposes. Obligations' to Great
Britain will take care of between
ten and fifteen million pounds of
bacon 'alone, -"iwhile the Canadian
Armed Forces will be fed with 102,-
686,000 pounds of meat, products.
Consolidation by the Prices Board
on three previous orders clarified
maximum price regulations for used
stoves, ranges or other heating or
cooking appliance* range from 90%
of listed retail price when new or
rebuilt, or equivalent appliances a
year or under in age, to 60% for
those more than four years | old.
This applies in like extent to coal
and wood appliances. Ranges and
stoves are about as valuable these
days aa horses in the good old boss
tradin' days.
The Swedish liner Gripsholm
which is expected to arrive ■ in New
York early in December, will bring
a good-sized Canadian party, repatri
ated—in an exchange with Japanese.
The majority of the Canadians
are missionaries, members of relig
ious orders, business men and their
wives and children. More than half

sects in recent years has added to
the difficulties and cost of producing:
crops eligible for certification, and
that the higher ceiling allowed for
seed potatoes is a proper acknow
ledgment of a special and more ex
pensive product.

Certified Seed Potatoes
Now Under Price Ceilings
Ceiling Price* On
Vegetables
The order establishing ceiling
prices for vegetables, was not an
easy one to write, according to Don
ald Gordon, chairman of the War
time Prices and Trade Board. Be
cause of the fact that many thous
ands of people throughout Canada
produce vegetables under different
circumstances, the price fixing order
was attended by many difficulties
and complications. However, when
the new order has had a trial, the
Board will be, prepared to make ad
justments that experience finds ad
visable. Ceiling prices per pound for
growers and shippers when soiling
to wholesalers are: beets unwashed,
two and one-quarter cents, washed
and scoured, two and one-half cents;
cabbage, two and one-quarter cents;
red cabbage, three and one-quarter
cents; carrots unwashed, two cents;
washed and scoured two and one-half
cents; parsnips, unwashed, four
cents,^washed and scoured, four and
one-half cents; turnips and rutaba
gas unwashed, one and three-quarter
cents, washed and scoured two and
one-quarter cents. When growers
sell direct to retailers their ceiling is
the original ceiling plus a maximum
markup of 15 per cent of their
total selling price to retailers. Sell
ing direct to consumers growers
have a ceiling equal to the wholesale
ceiling plus a maximum markup of
30 per cent of their total selling
price to consumers.
A big mistake many table potato
growers make is' to think that any
potatoes of good appearance will
make good seed potatoes. The fact is
potatoes may carry virus diseases
which cannot be recognized in the
; tuber but which seriously decrease
• the yield and quality of the crop.
1 The potato crop in Canada in
1943 averaged only 135 bushels an
acre, which leaves a very small mar
gin of^profit for the producer. It is,
moreover, not economical to plant
poor seed, because of the increased
acreage and labour required for the
: crops that are so urgently needed in
1 wartime. By means of seed potato in-
• spection conducted by the Plant Pro-
■ tection Division, Dominion Depart-
• ment of Agriculture, in all the prov-
■ inces, experienced growers are
1 assisted in the production of Certi-
t fled Seed Potatoes sufficiently free
■ from virus diseases to produce high
s and profitable yields of table pota-
> toes, and also in the production of
! Foundation and Foundation A seed
• potatoes which are required for
• planting by seed potato growers.
r In a recent order issued by the
C Wartime Prices and Trade Board
> establishing ceiling prices for pota-
1 toes, recognition has* been given to
I the value of potatoes certified by the
I Dominion Department of Agriculture
f as seed potatoes. "Certified” seed,
■ which is suitable for table stock pro-
f duction, has a ceiling of one cent a
r pound over that for the table grade,
1 Canada No. 1. The higher quality
- "Foundation A” and “Foundation"
r seed have ceilings over Canada No.
1 1 of one and one-half and two
5 cents a pound, respectively.
