New Potato Regulations J. T. Cassin, head of the Ontario Potato Marketing Board, has sent out notification that on and after Feb. 14, 1935, the price of potatoes delivered on track to warehouse in any city in Ontario shall not be less than 50 cents per 90 lb bag, plus tolls and charges, and no potatoes less than E. Canada Grade No. 1 shall be marketed in any. place in the Province of Ontario. All potatoes moving by carlot must receive inspection at point of shipment, but in case of an inspector not being available, must receive inspection at point of destination'. Inspection stations are established at Toronto, 16 Market Street; Weston, Chry sler Garage; Thornhill, Chevrolet Garage; Markham, Beares' Garage; Hamilton, Wilson's Warehouse, 53 Mc-Nab Street, N.; Melbourne. Campbell Bios. Garage; Hillsburg, Borden's Garage; Orangeville, Aitchenson's Garage; Beeton, Cities Service Garage, and also at Oshawa, Trenton and Windsor. All potatoes moving by carlot from, through, or to districts where the above named stations are situated, must report for inspection. At such farmers' markets as London, Hamilton and Toronto, where farmers are moving minimum loads of potatoes or mixed loads of potatoes and other vegefcahles, they may proceed to these markets where a Federal Inspector will be in attendance to give inspection on potatoes that are being offered for sale at these markets. PUBLIC MIGHT BENEFIT FROM UNUSED ELECTRICITY A correspondent the other day asked some pertinent questions of At-toi ney-General Roebuck and the Hydro Commission--one especially which we are curious to see answered. This particular query was: And why, if they are paying for large blocks of unused power, have they discovered no means to give the electricity-using public some benefit from this excess? Have they done anything to make their rate system more flexible? Or do they prefer to "dump the fruit in the lake" for fear of injuring prices? They have in most municipalities an excess rate of around one cent a kilowatt hour for the use of current above a certain amount (which you may discover after careful inquiry). What has been done to encourage the use of this excess? And why while it lasts, and where otherwise feasible, could they not make a still further excess rate of a quarter of a cent, or even give it away? It would at least encourage people to use more current, and when rates have to be restored to normal, users will have acquired the habit. OUR AIM The main aim of the wgakly naws,., paper, as the name implies, is to give news of its own district. It may have other aims, such as to give the merchants a chance to tell of their goods in its columns or to try to influence public opinion through its editorials; tout first of all it must give news. Some of this news is not easily obtained and no editor can cover it all without assistance. Especially is it true when you have visitors. A great many of the ladies think that the personals are the most interesting reading in the whole paper. Your visitors are usually glad to have their names appear, so send them in. Sometimes people come in and give the impression that they are asking a favor when they want us to insert the names of their friends who have been spending a few days with them. No person need feel that way about giving us news for we are glad to get it. CAN YOU BEAT IT? It's a queer world. In summer we want to be cool and go north.to get that way. Lot of money and unrest would be saved if we could'switch things around so we could want to be warm in summer and cool in winter.
