Sdlmon Pack Probably Light for Two Years TOKON'TO, - - A guarded prediction the Maritiiiio Provinces mlKht see a scarcity of salmon this year and next was made before the Uoyal Society of Canada by A. G. Huntsman, professor of marine liiology at the University ot Toronto. Dr. Huntsman told the bio- logical Hiieiices section of the society recent ilry summers in the Marltimes made it probable that there would be a scarcity of salmon during the next two seasons, particularly in view of the fact scarcities had been found In roughly every 9.6 years In conjunction With decreased rainfall In correspond- ing circles.

May Mantle Fruit Trees DKTKOIT, â€" A mantle and skirt of cellulosic material, to bo worn by tho fruit and nut trees, which would bar unfrleiully Insects and keep frost from taking its toll of buds and blos- soms, was described at the third Dearborn conference ot the Farm Chemurgic Council by William J. Hale, research consultant of Midland, Mich. The skirt of this arboreal garment. Dr. Halo said. Is perforated to permit free access ot air and bees. Cellulosic material, he explained. Is permeable to light which permits normal photo- synthetic reaction \fithln the leaf and fruit. In order to combat freezing of the buds on a dressed-up tree. Dr. Hale explained chemists have devised a liquid spray which forms a temporary film over the perforations, thus seal- ing tho garment and resulting in tem- peratures from five to twenty degrees warmer inside than outside. In due time the film disappears and tho res- piration ot the tree Is restored to nor- mal. The garment Itself Is weather re- sistant, he said, and added that a gar- ment for a single peach tree will not bring over 10 cents in the soiling price.

Lt'.uder Scorns Radio BOI.LVWOOI), â€" Sir Harry Latul- 9r turned dawn a big money offer for ^ tcn-nUiiiile radio appi^arance, yet hu iang liin â- ;?

The friend is Cttplaln Oeorgo lliU, OTTAWA.- -Sluirp on the heels ot Premier Hepburn's announcement that neither the City of Toronto nor any oilier niunicipnllly stands a chance of obtaining an iiuveased re- lief grant frmn the Province of On- tario, it l)ecanie known tiiis week that tho PVderal (iovernment is working toward aliandonment of the dole in its many forms. Dominion authorities admit that relief aiipropriations cannot be sud- denly cut off without causing seri- ous haiilsliip, but a tlefinite policy has been embarked upon to curtail expenditures which liavc reached the gigantic total of .?750,O00,n00 in Federal. Provincial ami Miinii'ipal Hudgets since tho depression tlirew more than a million Canadian men, women atid children on relief. Agreement* Terminated This week end marked the con- clusion of tho two remaining relief agreements between the Dominion and tlio Provinces of N'ova Scotia and New Brunswick. This \ eek it Is expected the Min'ster of ! "Imr, Hon. Norman Ilopers, will iir ' j known the ])rincipnl features i !' the new (leal with the Pro\in.e.; for grants- in-aid, on which there has been an average cut of 25 per c<ent. liccause of extraordinary condi- tions in the Prairie Provinces, It has not been possible to reduce Federal grants to them by 25 per cent., but a much lessened relief demand In the Maritimes has made possible a cut there cxceeilinpr '^r> per cent. The Dominion has set aside $10,- 500.000 as grants-in-aid to the Prov- C-N inces this year as against nearly ?2'J,000,000 last year. More Drattic Cut Foreseen A more important cut has been effected in public works relief pro- jects undertaken jointly by the Do- minion and the Provinces, the re- duction here being about 40 per cent., and it is rumored that in the next fiscal year there will be a much more drastic cut. One reason is that by that time most of the public projects, which can be justified even as relief measures, will have been completed, and another is that the experience of the last six or sevun years shows them to be unecon- omical, that the taxpayers do not get their' full money's worth. For the present year, too, over $12,500,000 has been set aside for solely Federal relief public works, although there are many other schemes in the same category, bringing the total up to a much larger figure. Additional to the grants-in-a'd and the public works are a number of other outlays during the present year by the Department of Labor, the total being $16,300,000 and vot- ed by Parliament as special supple- mentary estimates. This sum in- cludes $2,000,000 for direct relief to the dried-out areas, another $2,000,- 000 for the prairie rehabilitafon plan about which Hon. James Gar- diner, Minister ot Agriculture, will have further discussions in the West; $1,000,000 for the youth movement, and nearly $7,.350,000 as the Federal contribution to Provincial and Mu- nicipal relief projects. Saving on Relief Camps Canada is saving some $5,000,000 annually by the closing of the chain of relief camps for single, homeless, unemployed and the placement of /IC.OOO men and women on farms un- der tho joint scheme of the Dominion and tlie Provinces. That number, mostly young men, were established on farms (luring the past winter r.nd a survey just completed shows that a surp. isingly large number so plac- ed have decided to remain on the land during tho .spring and summer sea^on:•. Moreover, it is believed the farm placen-ent scheme has »â- ) a consider- able extent, broken down tramping in Canada. The spect;!cle of hun- dreds of men riding freight trains is no longer to be seen, and Federal authorit'es declared that the pro!)- 1cm of the transients, which was so aryle two or three years ago, is no longer serious. yot only has the farm placement sche â- e absorved twice the num'jc;' of uneriployed who wer? formerly accommodated in the relief camps, but it has resuUeil in the closing nf a drab nnd costly chapter in t' - Canadian depression story, and tlie permanent abolition of concentra- tion camps which cost the nat on some .'^^•_'.'>.000.000 and were at tl-e .same time breeding places for com- inunism. Farm Placement Benents In these camps .ojjeiml as an em- ergency measure (lurin;j; the (•â- •orst l)eriod of the depression, the men were 'ri' en food, I'iothing, shelter and an allowance of 2() cents a day. It cost the nation $(12.50 a n.onth to keep a man in camp. More wholesome conditiur.s now exist, thanks to the farm placement plan. I'nder that scheme tho men, working' as farm laborers, were jiaid $5 a month throughout the winter, and a bonus of $2.50 a month f they stayed on the farm until March 31, The farmer employing them also received n small sum from the Gov- ernment. Women working as domes- tic servants on farms received t'le same remuneration as the men. Speaks For Paroled Men Prison Chaplain " Declares Ryan Case Retards Worthy System INGERSOLL. â€" Discussing crime before the Kiwanis Club here, Rev. E. Donald Stuart of the staff of the Ontario Reformatory, Uuelph, held that the home in many cases was the real breeding place of crime. I do not mean the better regulated homes, of course," he said. "I mean the type of homes where boys are not given the grit to resist crime. No less than 40 per cent, of our men at Guelph come from broken homes â€" homes which the father has deserted, or the mother has deserted. If you remove the unhapp'ness from the homes of the country you will have done much to remove crime. "The case of Red TCyan did much to set back to parole system in the public mind because of its wide pub- licity. You never hear of the other paroled men who are trying hard to get back into society. Of over 800 paroled men, last year, only nine per cent, broke. You will have to keep in mind that society produces pr son- ers and that they are social material. It is sinful waste to let that material go wrong if it can be saved," said the speaker, urging a greater meas- ure of applied Christianity. Lengthen Periods To See Quints Aftar June 15th Girh Can Ea Viewed Two Hourj U'ailv CALLANDER. â€" So many thous- ands are eager to see the Dionne (|uintuplets as they passed their third birth.iay on May 28th that Dr. Allan Roy Dafoo decided to lengthen the periods they appear each day before the public. The rush of visitors over the holi- day week end convinced him the ."lOO.OOO who saw tho fam.ous young- sters last year will be increa.'-ed to 750.000 in 1937. The babies now play before the pubic for two half-hour perioiis cac!i day. So that as many as possible may see the youngsters, Dr. Dafoe has decided that after June 15 the I'ublic will be received from 0.30 to 10. .30 in tho morning and from 2.30 to 3.30 in tho afternoon. .At present the <:uints may be seen from !',30 to 10 and from 2.30 to 3. All times are eastern standard. The babies were shown as usual on their birthday. The only inter- luplion to their regular routine on that day was an international broad- ca.>-t late in the afternoon, when ef- fort;-, were made to have tlicm spc: k into a mcrophone. Breeders-' PoollnQ Thetr In^eresfs Every farmer with sufficient fe- males to warrant should h-ive a good, purebred sire of h's own. Where this ii not po.ssible three or four men r.iay pool their interest.; and own and use collectively a very superior sire. This is good business and has given notable results in several in- stances. The money invested gets more breeding iiiiality .inct the sire 's so handled as to derive most from him as an investment. Co-operative and community ownership insures the use of a good sire to all in the group whether large or small breed- ers, and exerts a tremendous educa- tional effect which results in higher ideals of breeding than would other- wise be attained. NEWS PARADE Commentary on the HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEKS NEWS - By Peter Kaudal This Year's Crop of Graduates The annual job hunt is on as hun- dreds of nervous young men and young women come rushing out of colleges everywhere in a wild dash to make their impression on the business world. For some years past, the happy hunting grounds of indus- try have been anything but kind to these would-be hopefuls and there is many a graduate wondering if the time and effort were worth the price. For these and their younger fe'low collegians, tiie Investor's Syndicate, of Minneapolis offers a ray of hope. According to a recent survey con- ducted by the Syndicate, "employ- ment prospects of this year's college graduating classes are only a little less favorable than those of the 1929 graduates, and substantially better than tho June 1936 classes. . . En- gineering, business administration, teaching and general business classi- fications are offering employment in greatest volume." Curiosity prompted a test of this .statement in a Canadian coHego. A class of twenty men expecting to graduate next month were interview- ed on their chances of securing em- ployment and tho results were very surprising. Of the twenty, seventeen had offers of jobs as early as April, while a number had even been placed in the awkward position of turning down opportunities that last year's graduates would have considered golden. It is interesting to compare the qualifications of the 1937 gradu- ate with those of the ideal model in other years. The 1937 model is a pretty good all-round man with a general background not only of clas- sics, but of the more practical sub- jects like economics, political prac- tice, accounting and finance. His four years at college have not represented four years of life in another world, but four years of familiarization with thj problems both past and current of the world he must learn to live in after the parents on the heme farm have ceased to foot tho bills. He has no illusions about the world he is going into. He knows there must be a period of apprenticeship in which he may even have to sweep the floors and dust the office desks, but in place of the "world owes me a livin;;'' attitude of a few years ago, there is a quiet confidence in his own abilities to succeed on the merits of his own demonstration. He is, in most cases technically trained for his job and business men say thai given an opportun'ty to try his training out en practical problems, he will go ahead fast enough to justify his years of education. Golfmaniac The summer sportsmen arc begin- ning to come out of their winter shells in the wake of the optimists who have been haunting tho nation's golf courses ef many weeks now. A well-known Toronto business man told us the other day that he thought he might have to give up business if it did'i't stop raining every Satur- day â€" he barely recovered from one cold before the next Saturday's drenching came round again. Atlantic Crossing Of such use is the airplane. Though accidents have been frequent with this mode of travel, it is difft- A Beautiful Task cult to imagine what progress would have been made in many out-of-the- way parts of the world without this means of transportation. The last remaining ocean to be spanned by regular service, preparation of ships for the Atlantic run is in progress both in England and in America. At the Boeing Aircraft Plant in Seattle, Wash., a giant 72-passenger ship is being built for Pan American. The super liners will be powered with new secret engines developing 6,000 horsepower and will have a speed of around 200 miles per hour. Test flights are scheduled for the early fall with regular service before the end of the year. Endeavour I And gales remind us that the old fighting spirit has not departed from "the men who go down to the sea." Unreported for nine days. Endeavour I, T. 0. M. Sopwith's big challenger to the American Cup, was sighted off Nantucket. Left to her own re- soui-ces when her tow line parted from the tender 1,000 miles from no- where, the Endeavour carried on in a fifty-mile gale. It may be slow in comparison to modern means of power but there is many a sail man will tell you that he would sooner be on her in rough weather than the greatest steamboat ever built. A Hazardous Quest A Russian airplane landed at the North Pole last week with eleven men who form the advance guard of a group of scientists engaged in studying polar weather conditions. After preparing the ground for heavier planes, seven men will return to the base of the expedition on Rudolf Island. Four men plan to stay at the polar observation station for a year. Since their position is on a floating ice field, subject to con- stant cracking, the post is looked upon as a hazardous one. It is ex- pected that the data collected will be of invaluable service in predicting weather conditions in the northern hemisphere. Million Dollar Deluge .\nd all this time, the wheat men in the Western Provinces have been saying: "What a waste of good water!" We met a Regina man the other day who leaves standing in- structions to his office staff to tele- giaph him when it rains. The tele- grams haven't been for some time and this particular man's temper has been getting worn to the thin edge. Over the week-end the long-awaited telegram arrived: "Forty-mile gale all day Saturday (stop) rain general (stop) store windows smashed." It sounded pretty desolate until he started to wave the yellow slii. in the air and inform us that a few million dollars to his customers meant more than a few blankety blank windows.

Tin Can Airships .A.nd in spite of the discredit brought upon the airship by the re- cent Hindonburg tragedy, John L. Dingell, member of the American House of Representatives, is to spon- sor a bill for the building of a $6,- 000,000 "tin can" ship. Dingell bases his proposal upon the success of a navy ship made of metal and in ser- vice since 1929. According to tests made at regular intervals, the air- ship is in as good condition today as it was when first delivered. The Old Ord^r Changeth Almost in sight of his century mark goal, the nonagenarian Ameri- can dime magnate has "gone the way of all flesh." John D. Rockefeller died peacefi'iy at his Florida estate after ninety-seven years of a life in which he is said to have amas.sed the greatest fortune ever known. Through companies which controlled substantial portions of the nation's income ho administered a fortune of five billion dollars, while his gifts to public institutions are said to be past the five hundred million mnrk. Those who knew him in the early days of his struggle have called his tactics ruthless but the use to which his great fortune may be put in ad- vancing tho general good of civiliza- tion may v.el! outbalance his untold sins.
