today i have been n a hay field every fanner in the ottawa val ley is making hay thee days and he is very busy for hay is perishable and time is precious writes rev i g berry ma bd in the ottawa journal this hot july afternoon i have been in a hay field on the high ridge where the land begins to dip dowi to the banks of the ottawa river 1 have seen the men at work farmer and son and extra man for the haying the field lay in a soft warm haze but from the river there came a slight breeze which tempt cd the hot cloverladen air and which brought relief to the men perspir ing under the burden of their steady labor it is warm work haying but this has been such a good season i have not seen such rich abundant clover with its sweet red brown flow er as 1 have seen in the fields here in the hayfield the uneven rattle of the hayrake limbering along was the only sound and at intervals a word or two from the men i knew that what was going on in this field was going on in a score of other fields all around haymaking leaves no time for any thought except the actual worn u hand but when the afternoon had run its course when supper was over in the low cool summer kitchen it was not hard to think of old days and to let memories deep down in the mind rise to the surface modern machinery had not come with its speed and its material gains yet with some lowering and loss of hu man values and humanity perhaps the farmer does not trouble himself with thoughts of how things have changed he knows that he has to keep up with the inevitable march of the times and fall into line with others yet something has been lost from the old haymaking financial for there was more of a personal note and interest in it then it was a craft which had been practiced from time immemorial and handed down with its secret and its skill free from the demon of speed who drives so many people on in our time it was a work which was done with the thoroughness and pride of doing a thing well no one who has had the rare pleasure of reading hilaire bellocs delightful essay the mowing of a field will fail to see these things from the early morning when he awoke to think of the mowing took a scythe from its nail sharpened it and began to mow the grass while the dew was still on it working on with a monotonous regularity unit the swathes were raked into cocxb tall and steep to keep off the dew and struggling blades were raked al so till the whole field was a clean floor for the tedding and the carry ing of the hay next morning there was a certain tradition and ritual about it all which centuries of hay making had fashioned but then his whoje hayfield was only two acres a test of 400 lbs of wendigo gold mines ore conducted by c i l lab oratories to determine the exact char acter of

business we have a picture of it drawn by the novelsit con stance holme the brown hot faces of the men the cotton frocks and bonnets of the girls the roan horse piled to its shoulders with the hay the

distances the most perfect hours of country life were at hand something of this still survives in our fields today but times are chang ing and we are changed with them let us hope that mechanization will not kill man and the finer qualities of his life place of execution there seems to be considerable approval of the idea that the time has arrived when tho death penalty should be inflicted not in the com munity where the murder occurred but at some central place in the pro vinces or at the penitentiaries writes the brantford expositor there is a good deal to be said for this view if after murderers are tried and condemned they were transferred immediately to the peni tentiary there to await the time of execution which could be carried out with as little publicity as possible it would save a lot of turmoil and curiosity that invariably accompany bankings in small communities canadians are quite generally agreed that the death penalty for murder is necessary for the protec tion of society and if this is so then it should be imposed in a manner that will disturb the public as little as possible new york times governor lehman designated last week as safety week tiiereup n the

or unimproved parent with a purebred by continuing to use a purebred sire on each successive gen- eration thus produced the herd soon comes to have great uniformity and a high economic value but as breed ing stock they are worthless with cattle the first cross will make all the calves half bloods and thereafter if superior bulls are used the progress toward higher levels is certain eventually the unimproved blood practically disappears but such animals can never be registered if grades are bred to grades no progress is made the upward pull comes through the purebred sire only no proniising bull calf even from a high- record grade cow should ever be re tained for use as a sire he may look right but all improvement stops when he enters the service where marked improvement in a grade herd is shown by the first- cross daughters of a purebred bull it is considered advisable for several reasons to breed him back to his own daughters the failure to make a full and consistent use of sires of the same breed in grading is the most glaring mistake made by livestock farmers today in dairy herds the temptation to use a bull of some fattest breed on highgrade cows of a low fattest breed should be discouraged stick to the same breed of sire or dispose of the herd and make a new start in producing cattle cither for direct utility purposes or breeding stock there is with possibly one exception no practical advantage in crossing distinct breeds the fancy that de sirable but opposed characters can bo easily made to blend by this method has beer the undoing of many cattle men do not cross breeds strive to improve the breed already in hand friend of miners to the long list of canadian edi tors who have died since the new year must be added the name of j w h sutherland editor and

talked with them since their return from moose uiver then in simple but eloquent langu age he told the story of what had actually taken place in that long fight they felt they had done noth ing extraordinary it was all port of their daily task they did not look on themselves as heroes when the speaker sat down there was not one of those present who was not touch ed by his recital the debate

with 3000 employees of the company in the united states in a pension plan recently announ ced the plan went into effect in canada on july 1st 193c under the plan the amount of pensions depends on the workers wages and the length of service with the wrigley company wrig leys have always been intensely interested in the welfare and securi ty of their employees and have always manifested this interest to the fullest extent in order to credit employees wbo have been with the company for many years before the start of the plan wrigleys have made a cash contribution to the fund of almost 100000 to cover these years of previous service thus any employee who has been with the wrigley company for 25 years and whose salary is now 200 v month would have an automatic pension of suoog per month on the average the company and the employees pay into the fund an equal amount each month the employees contribution amounts to about four cents on every dollar earned the retirement age is set at 65 years life expectancy is esti mated at 12 years above ag3 55 however in the event of eeath or discontinuance in the employment of the wrigley company or in the case of early retirement employees may withdraw the funds which they have paid into the plans pli3 interest compounded at 3 annuvlly pay ments and pensions are all based on a percentage of wage multiplied by the number of years with the company as an example for employees long with the company a man who has now been with wrigleys for twentyfive years earning a salary of 20000 would if he continues with the company for twenty more years earn a pension of 11000 per month and if he lives out the normal expectancy of 12 years he will have withdrawn a total of 15- 81000 although his contributions would amount to only 102000 friend

in accordance with regulations under hie live stock and live stock products act a national swine con ference bad been convened in the previous year to consider the serious difficulties then being experienced in marketing canadian bacon in great britain the one major problem being the inferiority of canadian btcon the conference appointed a perman ent committee known as the joint stock committee and the live stock branch of the dominion department of agriculture was requested to cc- oblish and administer an indepen dent grading service tho joint swine committee was ap pointed to act in an advisory capacity to the dominion department of agri culture in the development of hug grading and other policies pertaining to the swine industry it is composed of two representatives of the domin- j ion live stock branch two of the ikukiii- industry ono each for the province of quebec the western live stock union the eastern live stock union and two from the can adian council of agriculture cogni sant of the limitations of live grading and familiar with the grading systems in other countries the joint swine committee writes l w pearsall of the live stock branch dominion de partment of agriculture in the latest issue of the c s t a review re commended to the department of ag riculture that experimental work be undertaken to determine whether a system of carcass or rail grading would be practical and adaptable to conditions of marketing and slaughter ing of hogs in canada following somo preliminary work to establish tentative carcass grades the hog grading regulations were amended on march 17 1034 to pro vide carcass grading on a voluntary basis so that experimental work as- recommended could be commenced consequently carcass grading on a voluntary basis for purely experi mental purposes was started in pot erboro out in july 1931 and later in the year at stratford during that year 3577 hogs were carcassgraded and the growth of the system may be gauged by tho fact that in three months of 193fi the number of hogs graded was 57007 tho dominion department of agri culture having assumed the responsi bility of providing as impartial and adequate grading service as a basis of trading between producer and the packer has endeavoured with the ad vice of tho joint swine committee to make available a method of grading that experienco in other countries in dicates to be efficient and equitable the necessity for further improve ment in the quality of commercial hogs is obvious taken unfortunately for the com pany the crops refused to ripen
