the tribune stouffville ont- thursday july 31 1947 having ox the sabbath s- metbing of an unfamiliar nature greeted the eye of motorists in the waskerton district last sun day and it was the sight of farmers hauling in hay on the sabbath day enquiry revealed the fact that one of these farmers had already ot a considerable quantity of hay through the continued wet weather of the past ten days and the sun day harvesting was an attempt to save a large amount which had been cut and was ready for the barns in this instance it was a work of necessity but it is hoped that it will not come into common practice in this fair land where the lords day is observed as a day of rest from labour there is ample evidence that canadians are slowly but surely drifting into the american way of treating sunday as a day of recrea tion a day on which all manner of work is done about the home garden and lawn evidence of this trend is not lacking right here in our own district where on sundays the sound of the saw axe and even the lawn mower have disturbed the quiet and oeace which usually pre vails our fathers and forefathers accomplished great things without sunday labour and it is to be hoped that the average canadian will refrain from desecrating the sab bath and continue to heed as in the past the biblical injunctions of six days shall thou labour and remember the sabbath day to keep it holy

on at charge of joyriding was placed on suspended sentence for sentence before magistrate frank s ebbs in magistrates court the magistrate ruled also that the costs of the court would have to be paid by chase or his family the charge arose out of an inci dent during the early morning hours of july s when testimony indicated that chase had taken a total of three trucks from his employer contractors haulage pickering two of the vehicles were recovered a short distance from the scene of the incident later that morning but the third vehicle was not located until the following day when chase following his arrest led officers to the place where he had hidden it when questioned by police chase bad told the officers that he had taken the vehicles in an attempt to reach his home because of a sudden longing to go home which he claimed overwhelmed him chase also admitted to the officers that he had been drinking and at the original hearing this fact caused the magistrate to reprimand the farm homes lack plumbing convex i kxlks canadians claim to have a high standard of living and yet only three out of five of our homes have inside running water v c hodg son president of the canadian institute of plumbing and heating said last week in addition to supplying equip ment for the present record home building program the industry faces a vast potential market in canadian homes already built out of approximately 2000000 homes in the dominion more than 1350- 000 have no bath tubs and more than 1250000 have no inside toilet facilities in addition more than 1500000 are without furnace heat ing systems while the industry has reached a record rate of production it still is not able to meet the demand for equipment for new homes much less provide replacements for equipment in older houses he said it is now no problem to have running water in the farm home with modern electric equipment available for pumping water from a well or other source it is tin officially reported notwithstanding this fact that only 25 per cent or less of the homes in whitchurch and markham townshin rural areas have no inside bath or toilet facil ities busy bee is back ox inionuctiox beelieve it or not there seems to be every reason to hope there will be a good supply of honey this year for the first time since 1935 t ii shield generalmanager of the ontario honey producers co operative has reason to believe there will be a normal crop although heavy rains delayed the spring by two weeks mr shield explained the weather has been favorable and at this moment we have about 10 percent of a normal crop if the weather stays warm for the next 10 days or so there should be a very good crop last year the busy bee produced practically no honey it was the worst year since 1s97 and it wasnt a labor shortage there just wasnt any honey in the flowers and we dont know why said mr shield the only explanation we can offer is either atmospheric or soil con ditions went wrong in 1945 the crop only amounted to 13 to of normal which explains the fact that although no honey was exported from canada except by special permit during the war there just isnt any to be had must sort some before your start smacking your lips in anticipation remember that much of this years crop will have to be stored away to build up a backlog and also according to mr shield about half of the honey pro duced by ontarios 0000 owners of bee colonies never finds its way to neighborhood stores i is traded or given away by the farmer to friends explained the official many producers are just amateurs who produce as a hobby and never sell nevertheless if and its a big if 1 the weather remains favorable the oncefamiliar carton of the delicious syrup should begin to appear about midaugust or early september and at a reasonable price naturally beekeepers cost have risen just like all others asserted mr shield but if we get the crop were hoping for the price shouldnt be so very far above pre war levels has other jobs pieasant as this prospect appears producing honey is not the chief value of the bee he has a multi tude of uses most important of which i- pollination for so per cent of all fruit is pollinated by the honey bee the remaining 20 per cent is accounted for by the wind and wind bees mr bee was also a war worker and an important one beeswax- was used in the manufacture of tracer shells delicate aircraft in struments and in weapons so im portant that they are still on the secret list consider the fact that one bee must consume pounds of honey fjefore he produces one pound of beeswax and you have an idea of its value but the war i- over and if our hardworking little friend- get cooperation from the weatherman and can rehabilitate successfully breakfast is going to
