McDermott of Sandoon Farm, Goodwood, has demonstrat. ed the method. He has taken 450 ed the method. He has taken 450 acres of sandy, impoverished soil 3% miles west of Uxbridge and per- suaded it to support his 80 head registered Shorthorn breeding stock. Some of the land is still in the process of reclamation; other parts are in woods and will remain wooded so long as he has control of the farm. The venture began in 1941. Mr. McDermott is general manager of Canadian ts, a To- ronto financial firm. He has had ample funds with which to prose- cute his plans -- a good deal more money than the average farmer has at his disposal. But he insists that he has done nothing that can- not be done by any other farmer, | though the process will take long- or 3 the money isn't readily avail- able. Mr. McDermott's land cost him less than an average of $35 an acre to buy. But it is now produc- ing several crops of alfalfa a yedr, dent corn for feeding equal, he be- lieves, to good crops of the Cana- dian corn belt in Southwestern On- tario, turnips and corn silage. This is process: First, the eroded, sandy knolls are planed down with a bulldozer. Next, all the barnyard 'manure his cattle pro- duce, and any that he can buy, is harrowed into the str. re- mains of the grass roots. T, as recommended on a soil analysis by the Ontario Agricultural Col- lege is added. Rye is sown. It is plowed in as a well-grown green manure crop. Then land is sown with alfalfa and brome grass. All around Sandoon Farm are bald, sandy knobs and bare sand choking out the native Canadian blue grass. Not because there isn't enough water in the area. There is plenty of water. It's' only | the 125 feet below the McDermott ranchhouse, perched on a ridge 1,120 feet above sea-level, only a few feet below the Dagmar ski run's hest point. Down in the valley, water oozes quietly out of the sand, on top of the clay of |hard pan, provides spring water for several trout ponds. But if this sand is overgrazed, there is soon no humus to hold moisture at the grass roots. Then the topsoil blows merily into the next county, and the incdutious farmer is starved off his land. Grazing on Sandoon Farm is close- ly watched. The one section of Can- adian blue grass that has been re- tained as open range has been har- rowed and fertilized with both man- ure and commercial chemicals. The cattle prefer it to the lusher alfalfa pastures nearby. Mr. McDermott is growing pro- gressively less corn. He is going into grass silage next year, and will have only a small crop of dent corn for cob feeding. Even this small area of corn will have to be rotated about the farm on & long- tern basis to maintain the level of soil fertility and freedom from erosion that is his objective. Admittedly, the money to buy the best seed, the right implements, to hire the right farm managers and help, has been an important factor. Admittedly, it is easier to re- claim light soil than heavy soil -- am probably easier to lose it But A. C. McDermott is confident that his venture will have more than repaid all the money and thought he has put in it within 15 to 20 years -- depending on the beef market. None of the buxom, stolid Shorthorns from Sandoon g0 to beef, of course. But if the Tiarket is hen rs eagle to sell them for ces as breeding stock. Particularly when you keep on picking up grand -champion- ships at the CNE, and prizes at Chicago stock show. Stop Using OPP in' Strikes Asks the TLC OTTAWA (CP)--The Trades and Labor Congress of Canada Friday pledged support to striking Ontario members of the AFL-TLC Team- sters Union. In an emergency resolution adop- ted at its annual convention, it said it will use all its facilities to "persuade the Ontario cabinet to stop using the Ontario provincial . police in the role of strikebreak- ers." The resolution was adopted unan- imously by the 600 delegates after getting a telegraphed request from the Windsor and Hamilton locals COMING EVENTS GENERAL MEETING Park Club House, Aug 17th, ments free bingo. SUNNYSIDE refresh- Fair Executive To Be Honored Following a custom which has been followed for some years, the Oshawa Rotary Club, at its lunch- eon on Monday, will act as hosts to the executive of the South Ontario Agricultural Society on the Monday prior to the opening of the annual Oshawa Fair. The president and officers of the society will be seated as head table guests for the occasion. The guest speaker for the occas- jon will be William P. Watson, Live Stock Commissioner for the Pro- vince of Ontario, who is one of the outstanding agriculture author- ities of Canada. This meeting has been arranged, as in past years, as an indication of the support accorded to paiva] Oshawa Fair by the Rotar- ans. Nearly 11,500 acres of waste land were reclaimed in the first six (189b) months of India's community pro- m., C; Lat. Auth. IndianCampCloses With Big Pow-Wow One little, two little . . . 80 little Indians held a heap big pow wow last night to entertain their re- spective mawhoos and pawhoos who had made the quarter of a moon trek out from the happy hunting ground of Oshawa to watch the fearless braves do their heap good stuff. (Translation into pale- face language: The week-long CRA day camp in the woods at North Oshawa Park closed last night with an Indian style concert whieh the campers' parents attended.) The roaring flames of the bon- fire licked hungrily at the dark- ness and lit up a fierce circle of gaudily painted warriors. Then out of the night all covered with goo, a into the gin au phe Bare step) an Indian fresh from Stepped 'twas dangerous Chief Magoo. ' "I, Chief of the Sioux challenge the drummer of the Crows to a standing on the head longest con- test." Then up stood the man with the dirt on his face. "If tribe does not accept chal- lenge -- is great disgrace." MORTAL CONTEST Valiant to the end, the con- testants meet in the centre of the circle. As the 'mortal battle' is about to begin, the supporters of each brave start up an unearthly war whoop designed either to en- courage their own man or scare the opponent right off balance, it's hard to say which. At the very last moment one of the warriors hesitates. A dramatic pause comes over the assembled throng, right down to the last pa- poose. By the Great Spirit of the running waters, and besides Gee Whiz, what's this? Quickly comes the explanation: "I had to take off my glasses." The frenzied chant of the tribe halts long enough for a worried brave to ask: "Can you see O.K. without 'em, Ike?" Ugh! He could, he did and he won. MANY CHALLENGES Like the raindrops that fall in the spring, the challenges came thick and fast. There were wrist twists, cock fights, hand wrestles, laugh contests, talk fests and leg wrestles. One of these last showed originality comes in handy even in a primitiye setting. In a leg wrestle with the Moheg- ans the Crows sent out the Siamese. twins. The double entry won easily. It should be explained that this twinship was not congenital; in fact the only bond the warriors had was a belt that bound their ankles. All the time these events were going on, parents and younger bro- thers and sisters peered anxiously and in some cases enviously over the squatting braves. AWARDS PRESENTED At Pow Wow's end the awards were given out. All the redmen got at least one piece of wampum, a crest with CRA Day Camp 1953 on it. Others got awards for tracking --those who had found a certain number of stones laid along the trail and who had discovered the person hiding at trail's end. Craft awards went to those who made the best costumes, teepees, wigwams, tom-toms, weapons, etc. Also there were tabs or bars for proficiency in sports. And each member of the Chief Tribe, the Crows, received a memento of that achievement. When it was announced that there would be a repetition of the event next year, guttural assents could be heard from the tribes. How! Heap good idea. Ugh! WINNERS OF AWARDS Winner of sports swards were: Mike Kennedy, Dale Southwell, Larry Williams, Tom Quinnones and Dave Weeks. Bars for tracking were received by Jim McCristall, Larry Williams, Gerald Wilson, Grant Fry, Leslie Dutton, Gary Wilkins, Del OSHAWA Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WHITBY VOL. 12--Ne. 190 OSHAWA-WHITBY, SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1953 PAGE THREE SIGN OF THE TIMES ad By JERRY NOONAN More people voted against Mike Starr in this riding than voted for him. That casts no discredit on the Progressive Conservative can- didate or upon this riding since the same situation prevailed in the majority of constituencies across Canada; the winner was elected by a minority of voters. Here 12,491 people are satisfied with Mr. Starr as their represent- ative. But 17,205 people are dis- satisfied -- that is a majority of 4,714 on the side of the dissatisfied. On the national scene, the Lib- erals are said to have swept the country. They received 48 per cent of the vote. But that leaves 52 per cent against them. It is said Canada in effect asked the Liberals to continue as they have been doing. The Liberal gov- ernment is said to have received a sacred mandate. Their polici are said to have been approved by the majority. But have they been? $2 PER CENT AGAINST In terms of seats alone, they have -- 171 out of 265. However, in terms of people -- and shouldn't democracy always be conducted in terms of people -- the Liberals did not receive a majority, but a minority. Fifty-two per cent were against them. There are more Canadians with- out direct representation at Otta- wa than there are with. Of course deavor to work for all his con- stituents no matter what party they belong to. Much of the time, though, this isn't possible. If it were, why would the other par- ties bother contesting the seat? In his riding 17,205 people are without direct represéntation compared to 12,491 who are repre- sented by the man of their choice. And these figures are not out of the way. Two of the four candi- dates here did not win enough there had been a close three-way fight the losing majority would 'have been greater. As it is at, ost its vote. FIGURES FOR CANADA If Ontario riding were average for the 265 ridings in Canada, and there is no reason why it couldn't be, the same percentage can be 3,276,000 voters were defeated by 2,574,000 voters. The actual esti- Election Aftermath Suggests New Plan the winning candidate does en-|pe votes to save their $200 deposits. If | an 56 per cent of the populace |deed d. applied to the whole country. Thus: mated vote was 2,700,000 for the Liberals and 3,200,000 against them. Well, does the majority rule in a democracy or does it? Does the present' voting system. give just representation or doesn't it? No Herman, it wasn't those pesky reds! In fact this challeng- ing situation has been going on for a long time. It's quite reasonable that when three men are in the race, the winner gets less votes than the other two.- The only way to fix it up is to have two winners. And that more or less is what of multiple constituencies several times larger than the present ones where possibly 4 out of 5 candi- dates would be elected out of 7 or 9 candidates. In this case, of course, the voter marks the ballot 4 or 5 times in order of prefer- ence usually. Thus practically ev- eyone will have some repesenta- tion -- someone out of the 4 or 5 -- and everyone will have some say in the election of at least one candidate. No vote is wasted. RESULT MIGHT BE BAD An independent candidate has a chance, and therein lies the great est disadvantage. So many inde- pendants and representatives of minority groups such as vegetar- ians, prohibitionists, anti - vivi- sectionists, etc., might be elected that parlament would be a chaos of divergent opinion. No party would have a clear cut majority and the result might similar to France's situation at present where no government has enough power to pass the bold legislation the country needs. Members would not be so depend- ent on the party for election and party discipline would be ineffec- tive. No party discipline means no sure votes and thus no sure sup« port. In addition, the totalling of votes by this new system requires a car- load of mathematicians with two adding machines in each hand. Most of the disadvantages of this proportional representation system are carried to the extreme here, And its possibilities may be in- angerous. Nevertheless, ti is obvious -- or should be -- even from this brif sketch that the old voting system is not adequate. If government is to be repre- sentative of the people, some move has to be made toward the propor- tional representation voting sys- tem. First man with a solution wins a cigar. Haensgen, Peter Yourkevich, Grant Southwell, Robert Glover, Ron Wood, Tom Quinnbnes and John Turek. Craft awards were won by Tom Quinnones, Ron Wood, Billy Jones, Peter Yourkevich, Dale Southwell, John Tureck, Gerald Nelson, Grant Fry, Leslie Dutton and Dick Tay- or. Set Up Ontario Siberia For Thugs Is MLA's Idea TORONTO. (CP)--A Siberia in Ontario might be the answer to the criminal who treats jail as a sec- ond home, J. S. Dempsey, Pro- gressive Conservative member of the legislature for Renfrew South, said Friday. He told the legislature's select committee on reform institutions that some of Ontario's jails are too comfortable, and suggested the province buy land in the Cochrane area where a jail could be built that would offer a tougher life to prisoners. : "If men knew they were going to a Siberia they wouldn't be so anx- ious to get back to jail," he said. He suggested prisoners be taken from the balmy weather of south- ern Ontario to a more rugged life in the north. Reforms Minister Foote said new reform institutions are being built in the southern part of the pro- vince because they are closer to county jails. Mr. Foote said a new method of handling hardened prisoners will be tried at the province's jail at Millbrook. Prisoners will be organ- ized in groups, he said, instead of being segregated. Thus the num- ber of guards needed to look after them would be reduced. Mr. Foote said construction of a campus-type prison to replace dor- mitories now in use at Burwash reformatory near Sudbury is being planned. He said the new set-up there will provide each group of 50 men with a sitting room, complete with fire- place, which they will all share. In addition eath man will have his own room, he said. Headed U. of T. Mining Dept. BRACEBRIDGE (CP) -- Prof. Charles Gunning Williams, 71, for- mer head of the department of mining engineering at the Univer- sity of Toronto, died Friday after suffering a stroke at his Muskoka ct summer home. Born in London, Ont., he at- tended the University of Toronto and was graduated with honors in 1905. He was president of the Profes- sional Engineers of Ontario and of the Toronto branch of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. In 1943 he served on an eight- man 'government commission set up by George Drew, then premier of Ontario, to examine the Ontario mining situation.

CUBED Next week is Oshawa ending Saturday night, with province, and next only to Exhibition. Extension of the period of the Oshawa Fair to four days has en- abled the directors and the com- mittees in charge to make provi- sion for an expanded prize list, and over $5,000 will be paid out in cash prizes to successful exhibi- tors. In every department of the Fair, there has been a revision up- wards of the prize lists, in keeping with the advance to 'Class B" status, ahd Secretary Lew W. Mc- Conkey reports that the advance entries and applications for ex- hibition space are far ahead of last year's and come near to constitut- ing a record. EXTENSIVE EXHIBITS There will, this year, be an ex- tensive area devoted to industrial and commercial exhibits, including everything from automobiles and trucks to screen doors and win- dows, Oshawa industries and busi: ness men are giving excellent sup- port to the Fair, in anticipation of the enlarged Fair and the extra day will bring out larger crowd than ever before to view their displays. In the live stock departments, a generous prize list is expected to bring out an abundance of entries from the farmers of the surround- ing district, 'and it is also expected that horses and cattle will be en- tered by exhibitors from beyond the confines of Ontario and Dur- ham Counties. A new feature this year, and one which should be of special interest to the children, is a section for goats. This takes the place of the swine classes, which have had to be dropped this year, on Department of Agriculture in- Oshawa's Fair Now Has Class B Rating Opens Wednesday To Be 4-Day Event Fair Week. On Wednesday, the. South Ontario Agricultural Society's annual show will open its doors to the people of Oshawa and the sur- rounding district. This year, it will be a four-day Fair, the new rating of "Class B" placing it on a par with the outstanding fall fairs of the the "Class A" fairs like the CNE, Western Ontario Fair and the Central Canada Pe La structions, because of the outbreak of hog cholera in Ontario. FINE ENTERTAINMENT Entertainment features of the Fair will be outstanding. The Fair will be opened to the public on Wednesday evening with a grand variety show, directed and arrang- ed by Evalyne Johnston, well - known Oshawa entertainer. This show includes a great array of exceptional talent, and will pro- vide a full evening of sparkling entertainment. There will also be grandstand performances on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evening. Each afternoon there will be harness horse races in froat of the grandstand, and between races, classes of light horses will be judg- ed and show their paces in front of the stand. I JUNIOR FARMER DAY On Friday, the Junior Farmers will have their day, with the Achievement Days of the Oshawa Kiwanis Grain and Dairy Calf Clubs being held then. There will also be a tractor safe driving com- petition on Friday afternoon, open to members of the Brooklin Junior Farmers' Club. . The officers, directors and com- mittees of the South Ontario Agri- cultural Society have been working zealously for the last few months to make the 1953 Oshawa Fair an outstanding event, and are looking to the people of Oshawa and On- tario and Durham Counties to give their whole - hearted support and patronage to justify the inclusion of the extra day, and the raising of the Fair to "Class B" status.
