THE COAL SITUATION Continuance of the coal miners' strike and the railway employees' strike in the United States, compels the. consumers of Oshawa, along with consumers generally throughout the province, to give serious considera- tion to the problem of next winter's fuel supply. It is not desirable that with those obtained in Ohio wil be made and the relative merits of the two treatments will be established.

Thera. are few householders in the province who have next winter's coal supply in their bins. Now that the strike is on many people are mak- ipg inquiries from the dealers with a. ylew to getting in a few tons. They find, in most cases, that the dealers have not the usual stocks from which to draw, and that no coal can be se- cured, unless perhaps in the small sigés. Even if the mines opened to- morrow ft ies stated that the stocks are so exhausted throughout K the Unjted States .that it would be im- possible for Canada to secure the quantity usually shipped to this country. Inasmuch as the strike is not over, and may not be for some- time, the quantity of coal which Can- ada may expect_ is daily growing smaller. _. The United States Government is #0 pessimistic at averting the coal famine, that the Interstate Com- merece Commission yesterday took over the mechanical operation of all United States raflroads as the first step to ahsolute government control of, the movement of coal. Mayor Maguire, of Toronto, sees the danger of Torontonians in the strikes, and has teken the imitiative to avert a sop] famine in that eity. Action must be taken, however, in a nationsl and provincial way. The Dominion Government may, the sftustion improves at once, have to reinStitute fuel control, as will also the Ontario Government, The Town. Counefl must also keep the situation before it. One tows, ac- cording to press reports a few days ago, purchased a wooded property with the double purpose in mind of supplying work to mnemployed next winter and also providing fuel. Might it not be well for the Osh- awa Council to urge on the Ontario and Dominion Governments the ne- cessity of keeping a close watch on the situation, with a view to again establishing fuel. control should the situation becomes worse? . BO ve ser as SA " AIRPLANES ws. CATERPIL- Yet another field of service has been found for the ajrplape and one that has already been essayed with merked success. Recent experiments in Ohio heve shown it to be possible for caterpillars and other pests that wreak havoc im orchards and forests to be exterminated by a bombard- ment with chemicals from the air. Alter a six-acre catalpa grove near Dayton had been stripped bare of leaves. by caterpillars in two succes- sive seasons and signs of a third year devastation hed become apparent, some imaginative member of the Obie Department of Agriculture con- ceived the ides of destroying the pests by means of a pojsonous sub- stance rained from the afr.

What Ryan's method of measurement is the report of his researches does not tell ug.

In Dr. Steinmetz's arranged in groups of fifty in two rows. has been accumulated "the lightning flash is seen, the thunder rolls--re- presented by a loud snapping sound ~--and the bolt strikes." Of the effect of his artificial light- ning, Dr. Steinmetz is quoted in- the New York Times as saying that a small tree exposed to the discharge is torn to pieces and a piece of wire vapishes in dust. Theoretically, man could produce the real thunderstorm, but no one could stand near enough to the huge machine to make obser- vations. The "Wizard of Schenece- son: When Edison ran his first circuits for electric lighting in New York City, he used 200 volts. Today we fare sending electric power lacross the country of 200,000 volts. Thus in forty years, since Edison's first installation, we have increased the thousandfold; we have produced and played with over 1,000,000 volts, and the voltage of the thunder cloud is only fifty times higher than what man has produced. So, you see, the step from the highest voltage now used to that of lightning is less than was the step which the electri- 'cal industry has taken in forty years. Arithmetically, this is an indispu- table way of putting it, but there may be a limit to man's ability to produce voltage. In forty years more the voltage of the thunder cloud 'may still be unatained. Dr. Stein- metz's experiments have a useful pur- pose; he hopes that they will con- tribute to the development of light- ning arresters. Nature's bolts, it is not maintained, can ever be harness- ed and used by man for they come and go in a hardly calculable frac- tion of a second. But Dr. Steinmetz may discover how lightning can be surance companies would no longer class it as a risk.

Carman Ashley's Memory Only Clear Back to Last Sunday "I have not the faintest idea where the car came from," stated Mr. Car- man L. Ashley when interviewed by The Reformer iast night regarding the motor accident in which he was seriously injured a week ago last Saturday night. Mr. Ashley, it will he remembered, is a Belleville hoy who was riding a motor cycle east from Whithy when he was struck by R. J. Flekming's car. Last night was the first opportuni- ty the press has had of questioning Mr. Ashley but he remembers noth- ing previous to Sunday, on which day '| he states his memory started to be- come clear again, Mr. Ashley was driving a Harley-Davidson single passenger machine the day of the ac- cident. Questioned as to whether or not he were heading for Toronto that day Mr. Ashley stated that he could not remember what his plans were, It had slipped his memory even as to what night it was, He stated last night that he never saw the car, the first thing he remem- bers about the accident being the fact that someone was carrying him and placing him in an automobile. He does not know the name of these people. Mr. Ashley is an experienced mo- torist and has been driving a motor cycle for some time. He stafes that if he had seen the car he is certain that he would not have struck it Asked if the car came from a side road or struck from behind Mr. Ash- ley stated that he could not answer. He was driving at a moderate rate of speed only, as he has his Harley-Da- vidson so fixed that it cannot go at any great speed. On one other oc- casion Mr. Ashley was mixed up in a motor accident when he ran into a motor on a high level bridge near Niagara Falls. He was able to walk home after that, however, This pre- vious accident was due to poor vis- ion due to the structure of the bridge. Dr. R. F. Maclaren, of Whithy, is attending the injured man. He has compound fractures of both legs and several severe injuries to his body, as well as abrasions of the face. These injuries and the bruises have healed, however, and the Hospital reports that Mr, Ashley is progress- ing as nicely as could he expected as far as the fractures are concerned. ft will be some time before he will be able to leave the hospital. No. 6-BRANTFORD AND THE OLD MOHAWK CHURCH Thus far we have covered Louis- bourg and Prince Rupert; Niagara and Quebec and Lake Louise, and now we are in Ontario again, and once again hard by a typical inland Canadian River, the Grand. The ob- jeetive spot is the Telephone City of Brantford, and the name of the place suggests the Little Trip. Brantford has been evolved from Brant's Ford, and Brant's Ford tells of the first ferry across the stream, and the Mohawk Chief, Joseph Brant, who opened up that primitive route in a then primitive part of the unpeo- pled country. For the Red Men had been given a tract of land along the Valley of The Grand for many a mile, in what has turned out to be ome of the richest areas in (he province. Today a fine and thriving city strad- dles the stream. But its namesake has net been forgotten. In the centre of Vietorfa Park is a striking statue of the famous red warrior, whose name has an honored place in Cana- dian history. It is said that when Tecumseth first met General Brock, the Shawnee Chief remarked: "There is a Man." One can say the of a league. same when looking upon the figure was placed the first church-going bell that ever tolled in the new province, presented by King George, while an- other of the treasures of the church is a communion set given by Queen Anne, Adjoining the church is the grave of Brant, where his dust rests not far from the city that bears his name, It must ever be remembered that Brant remained loyal to Britain amid many temptations to throw in his lot with the Americans of that day. Another point of interest in this Little Trip is the Mohawk Village, a short distance farther along the river, where the Council House of the Six Nations stands and in which the solemn conclaves of the red men of the Reserve are stil held. Their annual meetings are still of pictur- esque interest, especially when 2a paleface or ome of their own race is made a chief. On every hand are reminders of the great Mohawk Chief--a man of remarkable rectitude of character and influence, whose fame and. re- nown still survive after the lapse of a century or more. Today the Land of Brant is well worth a visit by the Canadian sightseer. Hard by is the famous Bow Park Farm, once owned by Hon. George Brown, and also near by Tutelo Heights, where the Grain Movement Heavy--DBrock- ville Thinks Strike Partly Responsible Traffic of the Canadian National Railways are very heavy at the present time, stated Mr. W. H. Hutchison, local C.N.R. freight agent, to The Reformer, with large shipments of Canadian grain being transported eastwards Bay ports. Most of this grain is re- ceived at Midland and makes its way east by way of Lindsay and Peterboro. Questioned by The Reformer as to whether or not there had been an in- crease In freight traffic over the C.N.R. lines due to the railway strike stated that Information of such a character would have to come from the divisional freight superintendent at Toronto. Brockville the strike in the railroad shop crafts in the States is having an effect on the freight traffic over the Grand Trunk, which within the past few days has almost doubled through that divisional point. The increase in the business hand- led by the railroad is attributed to a desire on the part of shippers of the Middle West to have their products and merchandise reach the Atlantic seaboard in the shortest period of time and without delays, which are inci- dental to the operation of a railroad upon which labor troubles prevail. By routing their shipments over the Grand Trunk, these shippers are im- mune from the delays which are oc- curing upon United States roads. They | also receive the benefit of the fast freight service which at all times de- livers shipments at the Atlantic ports hours ahead of its United States com- petitors. The increase in traffic is giving ad- ditional employment to train crews at Brockville upon the runs between ville and St. Albans Vt. At St. Alban's it is reported that the Central Vermont, with which the Grand Trunk connects, is experiencing no difficulty in manning its shops with skilled mechanics, who are takimg the places of those men who are on strike, NO WARTS "What have you in the shape of | cucumbers this morning?" !
