The same request is also directed to advertisers. 1946.Loans are made by the Board tonay debts, to buy live slock, equip­ment i*d farm lands, to erect build­ings and to make other farm im­provements. The maximum amount that may be loaned to any one far­mer is $5,000 on first mortgage or$6,000 on first and second mortgages. The loans are repayable onterms of from five to twenty-five years by equal yearly or half-yearlypayments. The rate of interest charged is 4 ’is per cent on firstmortgages and 5 per cent on secondmortgages and on arrears. It is noted that the chief purposesfor which farmers have been bor­ rowing money from the Board havechanged during the last few yearsIn 1910-41 about 77 per cent of the money loaned wms used to pay debtsand 9 per cent used to buy landwhile in 1945-46 only 53 per cent ofthe money loaned was required topay debts and 36 per cent used topurchase land. A similar trend wasevident in respect to increased ex­ penditure for improvements to build­ings. etc.Of the money loaned to date, thereport shows that 52 per cent was loaned in the four western provincesand 48 per cent in the five eastern provinces.In the seventeen years of its ex­ istence. the Board has lent over$54,600,000 to 26,589 farmers and of the above amount $30,435,000 hasbeen repaid. Another noticeable fea­ture of the Board’s operations is thelarge number of borrowers who haveretired their loans or who havemade substantial reductions in theiroutstanding mortgage debts.The report also shows that the in­terest in arrears for more than siftmonths on all ousstanding firstmortgage loans amount* to only $6,800. ceiitu, Cuinornia, sun of Mr. and Mrs. A.

Robert A. Brown, School Atten- Priceless Rewards For Free Farmers The free farm folk of Canada, free from debt, free from supervision, free from drudgery, free from cities, are the most blest of all peoples. They can be satisfied with little or no return from their farm work because they are not depending on it to meet capital costs. They come as close as any can to living in heaven on earth. There are only a few free farm people in Can­ ada. A small fraction of Canada’s farms have sufficient help to make possible a reasonable 60- hour work week. Farmers who keep livestock, without sufficient help, most farmers, must work from 72 to 84 hours a week, with no holidays. Drudgery destroys their freedom and robs their lives of recreation. The free farmer and his wife, who enjoy good health, and have sufficient help to enable them to do their share of the farm and house work in 60 hours a week, with ample leisure for the enjoy­ ment of their environment, are the freest and hap­ piest people in the world. Nature is their personal possession. They level in the glory of the early morning. The ceaseless changes of the sky are their unending delight. The seasons unfold fully to them. The trees in green, in autumn color and at rest in snow, are their constant joy. The bright sun, the sharp out­ lines of the hills, the wide clear vistas, alternat­ ing with the mist and haze, and the softly shaded landscape, are their panorama. Lakes, rivers and ponds, reflect the chameleon magic of the heavens in water, and on ice and snow, for their pleasure. The deep woods afford an exclusive haven for their refreshment in ail the year. Truly, the cup of these farm folk runneth over. Their’s is a solid satisfaction in their working partnership with Providence. An instinctive seren­ ity rewards their faithful trusteeship; Confidence in the eternal rightness grows through their striv­ ing to find and further its purposes. They live and work with life, see all of its comprehensible meaning, share its worthwhile rewards, and enjoy the comfort that comes to those who play their part in feeding mankind. They live close to the eternal verities.—From “The Scene", by John Atkins. Mr. Lou Thompson of Rodney, spent the holiday at his home here.

MILLFEEDS DEMAND EXCEEDS SUPPLIES Present prospects indicate thatthe flour milling industry will operate to capacity during the greater partof the 1946-47 season and produce aquantity of millfeeds about equal tothat in the 1945-46 crop year. Thedemand is expected to remain equally large, with hogs and dairy cattle con­suming the bulk of the out-turn.During the 1945-46 season, theproduction of millfeeds broke allprevious records with an-out-tum of slightly more than 880,000 tons.Despite this record, the demand bythe Canadian feeders for these flour­ milling byproducts continues to ex­ceed available supplies. To ensure that the greater share of the feedsare made available to the Canadianfarmer, exports have been restricted by permit and at present only ex­tremely small amounts are exportedDuring 1945-46, ninety-five per cent of the total supply of 829,999 tonswas consumed in Canada and 4 per cent exported. During the five-yeaiperiod (1935-39) only 67 per centof the average annual supply of559,693 tons was consumed in Can­ada. with 31 per cent being exported. HARRIS ’CHAPTER R.A.M. OFFICERS ELECTED dance Officer and Weed Inspector, enclosing annual reports.The Hospital for Sick Children so­liciting a grant Ontario’s $100 Million Northern Frontier A new 8100 millions industrial empire is seen rising today above kike Superior’s craggy north­ ern shore by Financial Post writer Ronald Wil­ liams. This 20th century pioneering means jobs for at least 5,0u0 workers, three brand new midget cities of 3,000 population—all in the name of the pulp and paper industry. “It’s pioneering with all the conveniences of modern living," says Williams, “hot and cold run­ ning water, soda fountains, movies, barbershops, beauty parlors, banks, hardwood floors, electric lights, groceterias, labor unions, pension schemes, sick benefits, bridge parties (and poker), paved streets', front lawns, radios - - all the comforts of <city life, 1,000 miles northwest of Toronto and Montreal. "The old north with its lonely solitude, its hunt­ ing and fishing and its breath-taking scenic gran­ deur, is still there but during the past two years something new has been added daily. The re­ sources of the north are now being scientifically tapped and paper men say the development isreally just beginning," On Tuesday evening a joint meeting of King Hiram and St. John’s Lodges, A.F. and A.M., was held in their rooms, when the following officers were installed by Kt.

We entered it with high hopes, but it let us down sadly. It was to have been the year of industrial revival, with work for all and everyone eager to work. It turned out to be the reverse, and brought happiness to no one, Now there is an opportunity to begin again. In Ingersoll, there is a tremendous amount to be done. It is doubtful whether the citizens of our town have had/siuch opportunities since the time of .the great expansion in the fifties, and sixties, when many new factories were established here’ and Ingersoll really got on the map. ; If all work together loyally in 1947 they will be amply rewarded with citizenship in one of thefinest towns in Canada. Thursday, December 26th, 1935 PERSONALS Mr. Frank McDonnigal and daughter Rheodina of Montreal, are Christmas visitors at the home of O. C. Hughes, John street. Mr. and Mrs. Alex.

Mr. William Kennedy of the Bliss Electrical School of Washington, D.C., is spending his holi­ days with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Ken­ nedy, Duke street. Students of the University of Western Ontario, who are visiting at their homes in Ingersoll for the holiday are: Misses Grace Grieve, Jean McKenzie, Irma Hutt, Messrs. Donald Wilson, Harold Smith, Donald Wade and Howson Johnston. Life Cannot Exist Without Water A communication from Australia brings word of a devastating drought in Central Queensland. It is said to be the worst in forty years in an area covering hundreds of square miles of territory. Livestock and vegetation, even trees, are dying for want of water. Losses are already heavy, and are expected to be even more so. In those areas where water conservation methods have been introduced, the situation is less serious, which demonstrate* the wisdom of such methods. Water is an absolute necessity on any type of farm, and neglect to conserve it is sure to be costly, sooner or later. Until a large-scale conservation project for Western Ontario can be undertaken, individual property owners, both rural and^urban, can do a great deal through tree-planting. The election of officers took place at a meeting of the local Branch of the Canadian Legion last week which resulted as follows: President, Com. F. Cotterell; 1st Vice-President, Com. J.

Our refusal to see is proof of our blind-enss and the ease with which a falseassumption can drift into acceptance and become part of the faith of anation.Wages are not paid out of capital,they are paid out of production. Theowners of a shoe factory pay for raw materials, overhead expensesand the labor involved in convertingthe raw materials into the finishedproducts. They accept the balance,after all these payments, as compen­sation for their own effort, but allthis must come out of the productproduced, there is no other source,The share of labor is faitly con­stant. It varies somewhat with out­side conditions. It declines with in­flation, wages rarely move up as fastas prices. It rises with deflation,wages will not tumble from an in­flated level as rapidly as prices. Intime of war earnings rise becauseproduction rises. In the first GreatWar labor was robbed by inflation— in the last one prices were held downby bonuses, controlled by regula­ tions, labor got more.Am I right?

Labor has never given any consideration to thebasic factors which control the level , of wages and salaries. It seems. so1 easy to force up wage rates in thisand thus increase earnings, it re­ quires reason and understanding to go behind the obvious to seek and find the truth. . .The other point is that tne big disputes finally come before the gov­ ernment, the government means tnepartv in power, and the party inpower will not decide against labor. The Member of Parliament careslittle for what happens to in­vested capital he is interested in votes. The labor unions know this. The public is indifferent. So we goon raising wage rates despite tne fact that over the longer period this process is fatal to the broad interestsof labor as a whole. All efforts shouldbe directed towards increased pro­ duction. Only by this means can a nation prosper and, without nationalprosperity, group prosperity cannotlong continue. J.

J. Deachman of the United States, Great Britainand Canada, there are always anumber of marginal corporations,companies which sometimes make afair profit, at other times are in thered. If we are going to restrict freeenterprise, if we are going to robthe industrial life of the country byunfair and unjust taxation, or wagerates, beyond capacity to pay then the marginal companies must passout of business. We shall have stag­nation, new businesses will not beborn. We shall to that extent reduceproduction. There is a fine illustration of thisin recent developments in mining. Tightening the wage rate limits thefield of operations. Cutting the costof living and costs of production in­creases our available natural re­sources. It is only another evidence of the fundamental truth that 'thegains from improvement in themeans of production, wherever thereare such gains, should be passed onto the consumer in a uower price ofthe products produced. In that wavall classes gain. When we reverse this principal we raise the nominalrate of wages and salaries but robthose who gain by an increase in thecost of living. Then my friend went back fur­ ther than, this and put forward the claim that whatever might bk saidof capitalism as we have it today,it was desperately hr ’ ciuel atthe time of the Inq >.l Revolu­ tion and in the days of The Chartistmovement. Who can doubt it? Man’strail across the face of the earth hasoften been marked by cruelty. Yet through it all we moved upwards,seeking always for a better way.What happened in that period?Man began to harness power to in­dustry. The United Kingdom was a capital hungry country. The ordinarymeans of credit creation scarcely ex­isted. The banking system had notreached the position it now holds.The leaders of industry might havelowered prices and thus raisedslightly the standard of living. Onthe other hand they might us^ theirprofits for the more rapid applica­ tion of new methods of production.It was only natural that they shouldselect the latter course. Thejt looked forward to an expanding tra le, to a phenomenal increase of product­ion. They used their profits lor theexpansion of industry, for*the in­ crease of employment and eventuallyfor the betterment of conditions ofthe- nation as a whole. The rdsult—their country made phenomenal pro­gress—greater then than ji anyother country in the worl g Of course, the Socialists m!gli. have tackled the job. Oh no! Socialismcomes after production is well estab­lished. It takes over what othershave built. It does not build from the bottom.Nothing sc inspires men to effort as the conception that they are going to build great industries whichwil’ not only bring them profit butbenefit the nation as a whole. Donot laugh lightly at the last sug­gestion—making money is not everything in the eyes of the buildersthen is the pride that flows from seeing the structures rise. WERE THEY WISE? It was improvement in the meansof production which enabled Eng­land to save Europe at the time ofthe Napoleonic struggle. We ,havea parallel tb this in the developmentof. Rvwija..^..The leaderVwere impressed by the idea that theywere going! to be attacked and theyhad some justification for this. Theyturned tb<ir efforts towards indus­trial production, they did notattempt to taise the standard ofliving of tileir own people beyond a level whicl would make them cap­able of effilent work. They pro­duced capital goods. They expanded their industiies. They developedtheir armies ! Eventually came war and victory, because they were pre­pared. .In the tl jusands of industrieswhich constitute the industri Keeler & Johnstone FUNERjWc HOME Wood«&ol^Phone - 213 Jng ^oll Phone No Toll Ci Zenith 47006 FUEL PUMPSCARBURETOg LONDON • ONTARIO l RSOLL UTO ■CTRIC (Fleischer It Jewett, Ltd.) NEED Ask usadvantagesLENSES. Some people have long memories.I was talking to a chap yesterdaywho said: "Corporation profits arefar too high.” What he might have said was: "Some corporation profits are too high.” That would have pre­sented an arguable point but myfriend ignored the fact that in theUnited States, the home of big pro­fits, there have been very sharplosses and in some years there wereno net profits, that is taking industry as a whole. I mentioned not long ago the case of the Lincoln Electric Company of Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. James F. Lin­ coln, the head of that company,spoke not long ago In the city ofToronto. He has succeeded in Aiakingbig profits, reducing the price of theproducts he sold, paying his men thehighest wages of any corporation inthe world.
