turning more and more toward na tionalism closing of national areas already has thrust serious difficulty in the way of the development of british air highways notably on the india route conditions

out the example set by the granting of exclusive rights to certain com panies at other ports on the atlantic routes is presumably one which new foundland and therefore the british empire will be unable to ignore it is clear that the safeguarding of british flying interests will call for energy and foresight on the part of the best empire experts the future of newfoundland as a strategic point presents an especially interesting problem whether or not develop ment there will take the form of an oceanic airport in which several na tions will be interested presents a question demanding an

exclusive rights in the azores but britain here also pos sesses a strategic point of first im portance in bermuda if bargaining for the right to fly over the atlantic becomes necessary it is certain

the fall fair the remarkable attendance of 0- 000 persons at the burford fair has led the woodstock sentinelreview to comment on the significance of these local exhibitions and their value to the community motor transporta tion has undoubtedly contributed to tl e extension of the sphere of influ ence of the fall fairs exhibits are brought from considerable distances cattle horses and other live stock were brought from as far as the vi cinity of london and toronto to bur- ford to compete with the local pro ducts thus the competition was made keener it is said that some of the stock shown was not placed in as high a rank at burford as at the western fair in london perhaps it is better that local pro ducers should be subjected to outside competition as it is likely to improve the quality of the exhibits the ob ject of these fairs is to provide com petition and encouragement for the farmers within reach of them now that motor transportation is available the range of the fair is extended the success attending some of the local fairs shows that the smaller ones have their places as well as the larger exhibitions at toronto and london anything that is calculated to pro mote excellency in agriculture is worthy of the greatest support and commendation the directors of the burford fair deserve hearty congratulations on the splendid success achieved this year notwithstanding the disadvan tages of the prolonged dry spell the exhibits were of a remarkably high order and they showed what can be done even under unfavorable circum stances the burford fair has achieved a notable place among the fall fairs of western ontario be cause of its real merits brantford expositor the song of the auto my auto tis of thee short cut to poverty of thee i chant i blew a pile of

for numer ous species of bacteria which harm less in themselves are able to grov j in and spoil the flavor of the milk while care and cleanliness in milk ing and subsequent handling will keep down the number of bacteria in the milk to a minimum there will always be a smail number present as it leaves the udder if the number always remained the same as when j the milk is first drawn into the pail there would be little need to worry over spoilage but unfortunately for the dairyman bacteria are able to multiply at an enormous rate under favorable conditions some species are abe to double their number every half hour so that one bacterial cel at the start would increase to 1024 cells at the end of ten hours when we remember that the milk delivered to the city housewife is generally at least thirtysix hours old the impor tance of preventing bacterial growth is obvious to check the growth of bacteria milk must be cooled promptly to a suitable temperature promptness of cooling is of value in conserving the socalled germicidal property of the milk as experiments conducted by the division of bacteriology central experimental farm have demon strated this simply means that where milk is cooled without delay and held at a temperature kgh enough for moderate growth of bac teria to take place th rate of growth will be much slower than if cooling had been delayed cooling to a low- enough temperature simply means making conditions so unfavorable that the milksouring bacteria will be un able to grow this limit i reached at about 150 f hence the efficient dairyman strives to cool the milk to below this temperature and to keep it there at all times details of im proved methods for the cooling of milk construction of insulated cool ing tanks etc are given in bulletin no 1c5 cooling

found about five years ago by a farmer while digging a ditch at gal tabeck near the town of varberg on the west coast south of gothemburg it was carefully dug out and a con siderable part of it was preserved so as to allow a complete reconstruction which was carried out by experts with infinite care the ship is about fif teen yards long clinker built of oak boards joined with oak iails and beau tifully shaped it is regarded as having been a most seaworthy vessel with considerable loading capacity and carrying a mast with a square sail with assistance from oars as well by means of a careful analysis c the surface of the hull and of the surrounding geological conditions the age of the ship nas been fixed at about 400 ad this shows that the art of navigation is several centuries older in scandinavia than archaeolo- igsts have hitherto been able to de duce and the shi also revealj a very- advanced skill in shipbuilding at that remote period after having rested in the earth for more than 1500 years the galtabeck ship is now given a place of honor in the museum chileans use nitrate to aid wheat crop santiago chile chileans at last have begun to practice what they preached greater
