Sl vy 4 > LY i 'Kany | Se By Dr. M. Shhh PROBLEMS OF EVERY DAY - --re LIFE M. Lappin i Ape An anxious mother has written for my advice regarding her little girl, and it seems to be a casé of what psychologists call "defence mechan- ism", She .writes: "Some days our little gir) (aged 12) complains of vart- ous kinds of pains-and does not want to go to school; | have had ber. ex: aniined twice by our doctor who says she is quite fit'and there Is nothing wrong with her. We have noticed that her pains come regularly on the same days and if | 'allow her stay [rom school, the pains she complains of seem to pass away after a few hours and she is all right , ,.. " It you are doubtful about your fam- fly doctor's decision have another doc- tor look her over just to make sure, but | am inclined to think be is right, although as | have said before in this column, | do not give medical advice, It may be that, if you go into the matter you will find the cause of all her trouble in school, Perhaps there is a teacher whom she fears, or a sub- ject she does not like, and the wish to escape, working subconsciously or unconsciously within her, produces the symptoms of which she com- plains, Then, when she has escaped the dreaded ordeal, the symptoms dis- appear and she Is all right again, Now it is not quite true to say that such pains are imaginary, They are very real, but they are produced by fear, so do not harshly accuse the child of shamming or of deception. Get to'the root of the matter by in- quiring what takes place at school on those particular days when your little girl complains of these symptoms. You will probably discover it is some- thing that can be easily rectified. It you discover that it is some dif- fieulty at school which she ought to face up to and is seeking to escape, then: you must encourage her to face up to it, Show her there is nothidg to.tear, and make her feel that even ber teachers do not expect from her more than the best she can do, Should you find that it is some particular teacher of whom she is-afraid, a talk with the teacher 'might put the mat ter 'right and create a better under- standing between teacher and child, At all ebents, children ought to be trained to face life and that can never be done by over-indulging them' with kindness and sheltering them from every difficulty and hardship, It will not do to give in to your little girl It the doctor insists there is nothing organically wrong, then he is prob- ably right, and you must look for the cause elsewhere, You will probably find it just where 1 have indicated you will. 4 Of course you must not be cross with the child and scold her, That would be cruel and would only tend to aggravate the symptoms, Be kind- ly, firm and reasonable and show her how these fears must be overcome, otherwise she will never be able to meet the problems of later life, NOTE: The writer of this column is a trained psychologist and an au- thor of several works.

A new vein showing good values has been uncovered between the No. 1 and 2 veins on the Red Lake pro- perty of Faulkenham Lake Gold Mines, according to 'I. W. Dean, vice- president and managing director, who is visiting the property. No. 1 vein, which is a feldspar porphyry dyke, has been sampled for a length of 750 ft. Some 23 ft. sampled gave an average value of $21 over an average width of 56 inches. [I'ne dyke, which is from 10 we 15-ft; wide: and well minera.'zed, kas been traced for 1600 ft: No. 1 vein, which is wid n- ing to the east, has been opened for for another 100 ft. Drilling has started on the Faulkenham Lake group of claims, and it is expected the vein will be cut shortly. A crow of men have started further surface exploration on the Pipestone Bay group of claims, and it is planned to drill this. property as soon a8, pos- sible, The new vein intersected in the 201 crosscut at.Golden Gate Mining Co. has now been drifted on for some 30 ft, with the last face assaying $46.55. over 24 inches.

It is eypected that the vein 'will be reached within the next three weeks. Recent results at the property are reported to have attracted a group of financial interests, and it may be expected that an enlarged campaign of underground _develop- ment will be started at an early date. Darwin Gold Mines has opened up spectacular values in raising opera- tions in the new east-west vein on the 6th level, according to Mine man- ager Frohberg's report on July opera- tions. Raising had progressed at the timo of the report, to 36 ft. above the drift with the vein consisting of high grade quartz with large amounts of finely disseminated gold. Work for the period ended Aug. 8th has opened up 108 ft along the 8th level of the Grace vein, with the vein con- tinuing in a strong condition and showing medium values.

Making Progress With Live Stock 'Cannot Be Made Properly On Poorly Farmed Land There are quite a npmber of farmers who still view the breeding of pure-bred live stock as a sort ot specialized farming. Until such an opinion is discarded there is little hope for speedy progress towards a better farming movement. Stock rals- ing is not a specialty, should not be viewed in that light. The breeding and raising of pure- bred cattle or cattle of the highest quality is inseparable from practi cal and up-to-date farming. Live stock cannot be raised at a profit on poorly farmed land. All breeders are farmers, and farmers that go in for keeping live stock should be skilled in farming as well as in breeding. The poorly bred stock that a far- mer could struggle along with a few years ago, and enjoy the conditions of a primitive existence, cannot now even give farmers that comfort. In the near future this- traith will be mere evident on farms that market high priced crops through ill-bred live stock. Farmers raise live stock as a means pect.

The "Countess" Is Dead Springbank Snow Countess, 81871, ; the world's greatest life-time producer of butterfat is dead. She died at the Springbank Farm of her owner, Mr, T. R. Dent; Woodstock, Ontario, on Sunday August 9. In December of last year at 15 completed her latest R.O.P. test with 18991 lbs. of 4.30% milk, 882 lbs. of butterfat; setting a new lifetime production of 9062 lbs. of fat. Her highest year production, 1126 lbs. fat from 25,763 lbs, milk, was made in her 6-year-old form. She is the only cow that ever lived to have made three records above 1100 lbs. of fat or five above 1,000 Ibs. fat; six above 900 lbs. fat or eight above 800, Ibs, at, " "sixteen-year-old Holstein cow, years of age she mark over all breeds, with a total [ lol converting certain crops and crop f 'residues into marketable products. Then why choose the worst market, which a poor quality of live stock sets up, and cast aride the good mark: et with unlimited demand which a well-bred herd can provide on every farm. The "great co-operative 'move: ments that are now engaging the at tention of organized efforts with farmers, are largely over the market. ing of farm products to hest advan: tage, and the same principle must be taken up by the individual farmer in organizing his farm business, 80 that his farm crops are marketed to best advantage by keeping the best class of live stock.

In the fiscal year 1912-13 when immigration. was highest, the J12-months' figures were 382,841, _ Most of the immigrants this year were women and children of men al: ready in Canada, Adult- females to- talled 2,163, children under 18 years 1,853, and adult males 1,236. The im- migration for the corresponding peri- od last year was 4,961, There was a slight falling-off in immigrants from the British Isles and the United States and larger contri- butions from the 48 other races from which Canada drew population. The British Isles sent 912 persons, two less than the corresponding per- fod last year, and United States sont 2,129, which was 167 less than the first half cf 1935: Of the 48 races and other than from the British Isles and United States, Ruthenian headed the list with 213, The Northern European rac. es was headed by German with 143.

The unusual publicity of the case is immaterial. What does mat- ter is that another career, and ultimately another life, have been sgerificed to the Moloch of inherit- ed, unreasonable fears. That Mr. Zioncheck wag. mentally unbalanced has been alleged by medical men and other authorities, presumably com- petent. It was not proved in court and accordingly cannot be asserted. This is precisely the point of the tragedy and of (he lesson. Only a senseless relic of barbaric thinking could cause something which, after all, is a disease, often completely curable, usually amenable in some degree to medical treatment, still to be regarded in this enlightened twentieth century as though it were a crime and a disgrace. Students. of folklore might .find it interesting to trace the origins of this 'curious delusion. Nothing like it existed in ancient or pre-historic times, for insanity then was deemed a. god-sent gift of second sight. Even in the: medieval centuries Walsh and others have proved a considerable understanding of in- sanity, no small skill in curing it and absence of the present popular myth that any brain disorder is dis- graceful. This belief may have for parent the false dogma that in- sanity usually is inherited. Or per- haps it came from former theories of witcheraft, holding the insane to be possessed of evil spirits and such a possession a sign of eriminal com- munion with the devil. Whatever the origin of the belief, it certainly is time to bamisi "..

Instead, everybody does precisely what the victim of threatend brain disease should do. A physician is called instantly.

A certain tolerance is allowed un- der the Act in consideration of varia- tions which naturally must occur. However, of the three hundred sam- ples or more tested annually, more than half have shown a greater length to the pound than the label called for, In samples which did not meet the guarantee, the deficiencies in length 'per pound were inconsiderable, and only in occasional cases did the de- ficlency exceed the limit allowed, Since 1930, the proportion of samples found to have shortages has not amounted to three per cent of the to- tal number of samples tested, the pro- portion in 1935 being less than halt of one per cent.

It is better to leave the birds without feed for the first twenty-four hours after putting them in the crates than to overfeed them. For- the first few days the birds should be kept fairly hungry and never satisfied until they become used to their confined quarters. After that as much feed as they will take may be given two or 'hree times a day. After every food, however, the % troughs should be cleaned, and a supply of grit should be available tivo or three times a week. oH Managing Hotels 0, 0.
