The prevalence of unemployment and the general insecurity of life in re- cent years has not only delayed mar- riages, but has reduced the size of families; This may be a 'emporary phenomenon, destined to disappear as economic conditions improve. In some countries the rapid dc:'ine in birth rates is causing alarm, but in Canada it is assumed that the sag is temporary and that there will be an increase as the effects of economic recovery make themselves felt. There has been a long-term down- ward trend in birth rates for the past thirty or forty years, but this has been more than offset by a de- cline in death ates. Since 1930, however, there is a further sag below the trend line, and this undoubtedly is associated in some degree with the economic conditions.-- The Winnipeg Tribune.

Redistribute Reich Farm Lands BERLIN -- Millions of German farms will change hands, it was esti- mated last week, through a nation- wide redistribution program designed to increase the country's food pro- ducing cf{fi~iency, The prezeam was outlined in a 20- page deerce published in news 3 but not effective until next Jan. 1. The vast project also includes reclamation and land levy --somewhat silimar to capital levy --provisions by which hundreds of thousands of Germans now without land will get. - farms. The basic idea is the pooling of all land into districts of convenient sizes after, which the districts will be redivided into individual farms with deductions for creation of new farms and financing of improvement for district collectives. Approximately 4,000,000 farmers and settlers are involved, with an aggregate of 50,000,000 acres of ag- ricultural lands technically subject to modification or change of owner- ship.

"ers are not specifically exempted in the decree, it was assumed they will be treated the same as other farms "in the redistribution program. "Splintered" Holdings It was explained semi-officially that redistribvtion is made impera- tive by the existence of some 15,- 000,000 acres of "splintered" hold- ings which constitutes a serious bar- rier to efficient food production, especially in" Western and Southern Germany. The peasant now holding four or five small "splinters" which are diffi- cult to work Dlecause they are iso- lated one from another amid "erazy quilt" boundarics of the farming community, will gain through the re- distribution scheme a single, compact piece of land which he can work ef- ficiently. Redistribution wil be effect- ed through the creation of redistri- bution collectives, each of which may include one or more farming communities.

They also have the habit of democracy; as Lord Tweedsmuir has just said, the are "engaged in the same job." Politics in the Dominion has all the heat and fury and humor and hum-bugging of ours. After an election there is the good temper which marks or used to mark the end of American battles on the stump. Both nations are federations, if Pro- fessor Turner was right in his theory of the federation of geographical sections rather than of states and provinces. The Prairie Provinces might be compared profitably with the Middle West. The attacks on big business, the wrath against the bank- ers in Montreal and Toronto, recall the hymn of hate which our politi- cians have chanted so sng against Wall Street. Relief and rchabilitation are Can- adian problems as they are ours; and now the organization of labor is bothering Canadian statesmen. Both nations have to deal in their demo- cratic ways, essentially the same for all their differences, with the same matters of national movement. The Canadian method is always worth watching. Lord Tweedsmuir "was too modest when he predicted that in time the United States would "get --that is, "learn" a good deal from Canada. She taught us much about prohibition. One sorely need- ed lesson she is giving us every day scems little taken to heart. In that country of immense range the erim- inal law, whether in cities or isolated executed speedily and effectively. Trials are short. The courts ave not theatres of cheap windy oratory, petti- fogging tact'es to delay or .defeat justice. Lord Twoedsmuir spoke of "the physical frontier" of Canada. The frontier of the United States disap- pearcd more than 40 years ago. Ace cording to Roscoe Pound, our seanda- lous criminal trials are inheritances of the frontier.

This is a question which in these davs of large corporations with wide- spread ramifications and of chain stoves is often asked. And it is a curious thing that it is in the United States, which has op- posed branch bank systems, that chain stores have had their greatest development, In Florida, however, leg- islation "was introduced to ban chain stores from the state, It was thrown out of the state senae, but it is never heless symptomatic of a new trend. On the other hand, in Canada anti- trust legislation has been strengthen- ed, though in the United States there are forces working both for and against at the present time, In spite of the apparent trend to- ward business mergers, a writer in Harperis Magazine, declares "the evi- dence 1s overwhelming that the small business man has a chance," The small man's chance he says is "to exploit new ideas" -- something that too often big business is afraid of. Big business, he argues, is handicap- ped "because its owners put too much emphasis on finance." Most of big business were small to start with -- and the same thing may happen again Cockerels and Off-Type Pullets There is a time in the early part of the scason when cockerels of a pound and a half in weight will bring just as much as a three-pound bird later on. Therefore, what is the use of keeping cockerels for extra weeks, feeding extra corn and other grain into them, just for the pleasure of their company? This early sales time is also the best time to dispose of the poorer pullets, the ones not likely to grow into good layers and breeders. Birds that are off-type, of low vitality, of poor form, all should go to market to give the very best chance to the good birds kept for the future laying and breeding flock.
