tne tribune stouffvilk ont thursday october 24 1916 wptb and questions answers q when i returned from the arm i after four years overseas am i responsible for my wifes debts please advise me as i am being threatened with a garnishee and will 1 loe my job a we wish we could help you but such matters do not come within the jurisdiction of the wartime prices and trade board we sug gest that you contact a lawyer at once and be guided d3- his advice if necessary go to your employers and explain your difficulties they will no doubt be glad to help an em ployee instead of firing him q i have four small children and live out of town so only get to town about once a week i am never able to buy a bar of soap or soap flakes and feel i am not ask ing too much when i ask for my fair share of one box a week my grocer says he hasnt any but i am sure he must get some what can i do about this can he be forced to give me my share a we sympathize with you in not being able to get soap we know it is difficult with small children we have already mentioned the many- reasons why it is not practical to ration soap at this time and will write them to you personally we cannot force a grocer to sell mer chandise to anyone but perhaps if you explained your situation to him he would save you something from his next shipment we can only hope that industrial disputes which are causing this serious shortage will soon be settled and soap and soap flakes will again appear in ad equate quantities q i have just opened a large pack age of soap flakes the box is 9 from the top to bottom and the top three and a half inches are empty this is equivalent to more that thirtythree and a third price increase could you tell me the reason for this a the soap flakes which you have bought were packed by one of the leading manufacturers in the coun try and we are sure this firm would not deliberately misrepresent the size of the package it would seem to us that this was an error on the part of one of the packers but we will pass the complaint along for investigation i had a portrait of myself and my late husband done by a tor onto studio the proof looked to be quite good but the painting changed the expression entirely i paid 495 for the portrait and 850 for the frame the prices wouldnt be too bad if satisfac tion was guaranteed can any thing be done about insisting on good work for my money a we wish we could warn every housewife in canada against solici tors who canvas from door to door and promise all sorts things which could never possibly be delivered for the prices asked from your letter we believe you received a coloured photograph and when the final results depend entirely on in dividual skill in this work it is very difficult to decide whether or not you received value for your money the cost of portraits is no longer under price ceiling regulations and each studio may set their own prices tour case is a very sad one and we are sorry there is nothing we can do to help you r ex a l stouffville high school cops field day championship next week wednesday thursday friday saturday oct 30 31 nov 12 boadways drug store stouffville ontario look for bills in the

clarence wideman is informed in view of this information it might be well for farmers owning stock of this kind to check up on their hold ings just in case there is a heifer missing from the pasture despite the bountiful wheat crop which has just been harvested in canada as well as in some other countries the demands of a hungry world for this staple food remain high and canadas export require ments are very large canada this year has an excellent potato crop during the coming months it is hoped that a generous use of this vegetable will be advo cated and practiced substituting potatoes wherever possible for breads and other flour products will enable canada to spare more wheat for overseas shipment apart from wheat conservation aspects both the supply and the price of potatoes favour an increased consumption this year the september estimate placed 194g potato production at 14628000 cwt an increase of 24 over the smaller than average crop harvest ed in 1945 and 0 greater than the five year 193943 average substanti ally heavier average yields per acre account for this years increase the average production this season is estimated at 86 cwt per acre compared with 71 cwt in 1945 and 78 cwt during the 193943 period the 520600 acres planted in 1946 represent a 25 increase over the acreage planted in 1945 and 02 decrease from the average 193943 acreage the ceiling prices in effect for potatoes this year are the same as those which prevailed a year ago in most cases potatoes sold at ceil ing prices throughout last year at the present time they are selling considerably below ceiling prices potatoes can be bought to good ad vantage now for winter use where storage facilities permit stouffville high school won the high school championship at the annual interschool
