that the entries must be sent he also acts as secretary for the ontario beef cattle improvement association under whose auspices the show and sale is held mr watson urges both prospec tive sellers and buyers of beef bulls to keep the sale in mind since he considers it is one of the best places to either buy or sell such animals in ontario the fin ancial assistance offered by the ontario department of agricul ture on bulls bought by ontario farmers at this sale is a help to both parties it amounts to one- third of the purchase price up to a maximum of 150 assistance per bull this assistance to ontario farm ers in purchasing the high quality bulls offered at the sale means it provides a real opportunity for them to get a really good sire for their beef herd at a reasonable price for the seller it helps assure a good auction sale where his surplus purebred breeding stock can be sold to the highest bidder the location of the sale on march 20 1951 is the royal winter fair building

i the perfect woman patricia roc quality was a big feature in the seventeen higli yield potato clubs organized in ontario this year according to it e goodin assist ant director of the crops branch of the ontario department of agriculture as an indication of the interest in these clubs mr goodin points out that 313 growers took part in them which gives an average membership per club of 20 persons all of them had high goals fif teen clubs were shooting at a pro duction of 500 bushels per acre and one had goo bushels per acre as its goal the seventeenth did not set specific production goal but was simply aiming at potato improvement these goals seem high in rela tion to a provincial average yield of 102 bushels per acre but the overall result of the competitions show they were none too high i the average yield achieved by the growers taking part was 425 bushels per acre and the top pro ducers this season had nearly twice that yield from their special plots c h chapman of nippissing in the parry sound district was top man with an estimated yield of 807 bushels per acre and two other growers had yields above the 800 bushel mark nearly twenty per cent of the growers taking part exceeded the 500 bushel objec tive adopted by the majority of the clubs these clubs are sponsored and organized by the county and dis trict branches of the ontario crop improvement association but in addition special incentive was added by local areas or organiza tions in north simcoe several crop competitions were joint pro jects of the local agricultural societies and the county crop improvement association then the potatogrowing areas of duff- erin middlesex peel parry sound and south simcoe gave sub stantial prizes for quality this was not only on the basis of marketable tubers per acre bui in some cases for preparation of exhibits and for condition of potatoes in storage another interesting feature of this eighth year of these high yield potato clubs is thai this years average production is the tiighcst recorded so far from a variety standpoint it is worth noting that twelve of this years prize winners grew chlppewas with katahdins stand ing next in line from the stand- point of yield and quality new house of commons boasts unique lighting one of the most complicated largescale illumination projects was shown to the public for the first time when the new house of commons was recently opened in london employing the latest lighting techniques and equip ment skilled engineers accomp lished the mammoth installation in such a way that it does not detract in the slightest from the traditional atmosphere of the previous house of commons which was destroyed by fire in the bombing raids of 1911 the result is generally acknowledged by all who have seen it to be an engineer ing and artistic achievement of un usual merit lighting of the main chamber and adjacent offices lobbies com- cathode all of which are control mittee rooms and halls was under- ed by a dimming system that taken by the general electric enables the illumination to be co ltd of england the largest manufacturer of illuminating and electrical equipment in the british commonwealth engineers of this company represented in canada by its subsidiary british general electric co canadian ltd worked closely with the architect in charge of the rebuilding pro ject sir giles gilbert scott the outstanding features of the lighting system are most apparent in the main chamber where the complete absence of any visible lighting fixtures or units is immed iately noticeable all lighting units are hidden thus enhancing the traditional antique appear ance of the great room despite the fact that thev are invisible more than 1800 fittings and 1000 lamps most of them of the fluorescent type were used in the project the main lighting of the cham ber is entirely by means of fluor escent lamps both hot and cold increased gradually to the level desired so that members are not disturbed by the sudden switching on of the lamps the principal source of lighting in the chamber is provided by 15 cold cathode units mounted in the ceiling above a laylight the five main panels of the laylight are each subdivided into 30 smaller panels and the whole laylight and its subdivisions is framed in carved oak a cold cathode unit is mounted behind every ceiling panel the glazing of the panels is tinted oak colour so that by day the whole roof appears to be of timber with carved ornamenta tion control of the chamber lighting is normally effected from the engi neers control room in the base ment of the house pushbutton switches for remote control of the motordriven dimmers are mount ed on a panel beside the engi neers desk enabling the illumin ation to be increased or decreased
