Dairy Production Down in Ontario Toronto, May 21.--(CP)--Produc- tion of dairy products was reduced in Ontario during April and March as compared with last year's fig- ures, it was shown today by the Ontario Agricultural Department. Production of creamery butter fell by 12.8 per cent and cheddar cheese 42.3 per cent in April com- pared with April, 1947. The output of creamery butter for the first four months of 1048 totalled 15,988,800 or 11.3 per cent less than the corresponding period of last year. Cheddar cheese pro- duction for this period shows a de- lcline of 36.2 per cent. The total amount of whole milk used in Ontario for production of creamery butter, cheddar cheese, ice cream, concentrated whole milk products and fluid milk and cream sales during March shows a de- crease of seven per cent for March, 1947. The amount used during the year's first three months decreased by 7.6 per cent. Although the great fire of Lon- don in 1600 did a tremendous amount of damage and destroyed many great buildings, only six people were killed. As Motorbike L.. Bone | Honored By Alumnae DR. C. R.

Growing Township Of Pickering To Ask School Area "A lot of our time has been wastod," was the reaction of one member of Whitby Board of Education yesterday upon learning that Pickering township council has decided to re- commend to the Ontario County council and the Department of Education that a new High School area be established in- cluding the township of Pickeringj alone. It had been believed that the proposed school area would include most of the township of Pickering, the township of Whitby and the town of Whitby. Anticipating this, Whitby town council had recently given their sanction to the plan with the stipulation that when a new school was built the local high school should be turned over to Whitby Public School Board. One reason for this decision by Pickering township is said to be that the township believes that if the larger area is created, repre- sentatives having a primary in- terest in the town of Whitby would dominate the new board. It also believes that the new school might be located in a corner of Pickering township in a position far from the homes of many of the pupils. The Pickering council further believes that their township is large enough (over 10,000 people includ- ing Ajax) to support such a plan.
