E FOUR THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE ' ¢ ' wl MONDAY; NOVEMBER 25, 194% WN OF WHITBY. LATEST NEWS OF HE COUNTY T Whitby Editor, W. J, Duthie, Business Office, Miss G. Macpherson Phone 708, All Departments Nominations Earlier This Year To Bring Out More Voters And Votes The elections for Whitby municipal offices are earlier ) is year, and so are the nominations. In fact Nomination Day is on Friday, only four days away, but indications so {ar do not point to a particularly active campaign. ¢ A few months ago, the members @fithe Town Council voted to set = voting day on the secend Saturday ih» December, hoping to get out siore than the 30 per cent who cast figeir ballots last year. They picked Suturday because they thought all citizens of the town would have time on that day to pay a short viit: to a polling. booth, feeling that Monday, the traditional washday, was not the best day in the week for holding an election. The earlier date is also hopefully put forward to attract more voters, the Council feeling that in the midst of the holiday season, people were too busy to give more than eursory attention to the electing of representatives for the municipal Jioverument. Acclamations Last Year ¢ Trying to predict just who will fun for what office is almost as fiard as trying to say what a lively four-year-old child will try to do fiext. Last year acclamations were given to the three senior members of the Town Council, Mayor R. M. Deverell, Reeve J. E. Shields and Deputy Reeve Andrew Muir, to the two members of the Public Utility Commission and to the Board of Education, and eight men ran for the six seats on the Council. This year a vote is guaranteed be- cause there are three bylaws which have to receive the approval of the people before they become law, those to grant fixed assessments to the Brunton Lumber Company, W. J. Anderson Company Ltd, and Woodland Products. These bylaws must recelve the assent of two thirds of those voting before they can; be enforced. ther there will be an election for civic offices is harder to prog- nosticate. So far no applicants for the position of mayor have declared their intentions, and if the present mayof chooses to run again ib seems more than likely that he will be accorded 'an acclamation. For thes mals of reeve and Seputy reeve, wi represen e on the County Council, nothing definite is in neither Mr, Shields nor Mr, Muir have stated that they will not be in the running again this year. Picture Is Vi ague The picture among the council- lors is even more vague, although at least one of the present members has stated on several occasions that he has absolutely no intention of asking for public office again this year, As for the other members this will be the week during which they will make up their minds. Thére is even some talk of a woman candidate for a seat on the Council, but nothing very definite as yet. On the Board of Education there will: be three vacancies, for Public School Trustees, to be filled at the elections, the terms of Mrs. Frank Wells, D. J. Kean and R, A. Hutch- ison ending on December 31. Also to be filled will be two posts of the Public Utility Commission. The nomination meeting will be held in the Town Hall on Friday ni , and the filing of qualifica~- tions will be allowed until p.m. the following might, with the elec- tion two weeks later.

Second Win For Vets 26-0 By DAVE HAIRE The Vets won their second conse- cutive victory from the High School at the Town Park Saturday after- noon by Whitewashing the students 26-0. The High School were out- numbered by the Vets and played against a much heavier team. As the score indicates the game was very one-sided but the students bat- tled till the final whistle. For the Vets Price led the scor- with three touchdowns and Saloway was next with a touchdown and a convert, Bragg rounded off the scoring with a major. Gledhill, the huge snap for the High School, turned in a good game and - did most of the tackling as well. Big Plans Ahead The Vets are considering entering an intermediate team next season but right now they lack support. So anyone wishing to render some help to the cause can do so by get- ting in touch with Lawrence Hef- fering or J. Price. Line-ups: H.S--Ends, Mowat, J. Haire; snap, Gledhill; inside, Love; backs, D.

Cox of 704 Lans- downe Street, Toronto, was forced off the road when Chiddenton, heading west, pulled out to pass a truck. The Cox car overturned in the ditch, doing considerable dam- age to the roof, but no serious in- juries were reported. The accident was investigated by Provincial Con- stable C. Hefferon. Exhibitions Are Show Windows Of Agriculture ---- The role of exhibitions in the past in the upbuilding of Canada's agri- culture cannot be overestimated, Dr. E. 8. Archibald, Director, Experi- mental Farms Service, Dominion Department of Agriculture, told the Canadian Exhibition Association at its annual meeting held recently in Toronto. The many years of con- structive encouragement and guid- ance given to Canadian agriculture placed the Dominion in an enviable position of potential production when, during the last Great War, enormous demands were made on Canada for foodstuffs, Canadian exhibitions have shown the superiority of Canadian food products. These exhibitions both directly and indirectly have advanc- ed the work of scientists who had created new and better wheat and other grains and discovered ways and means not only of better breed- ing but better feeding, finishing and producing better bacon, beef, cheese and other dairy products such as powdered and condensed milk and other foods such as processed vege- tables and fruits. All these have been given a forward lift and en- couragement by exhibitions. Ex- hibitions, said Dr. Archibald, were the show windows of agriculture and of the improvements made. Canadian agriculture- has to be sold to Canadian at home, Often the expression is heard in Canada "Of course we cannot produce as good butter as New Zealand" or "Danish bacon is of course better than Canadian bacon". Few people, said Dr. Archibald, realize that when Canada wins world champion~ ships at a great Show, such as the International at Chicago, it is be- cause Canada is producing the best wheat in the world for bread-mak- . Actually, ucing the best prod oral | cheese in the world, although there is still room for improvement, A big percentage of Canadian bacon is as good as Denmark ever pro- duced. Canada produces the best quality vegetables and fruits. Being northern grown, they are higher in vitamin content and bf fine flavour. Canada is prod the best eggs, and her grading 'system of eggs, which has been greatly assisted by exhibitions, is a pattern for the rest of the world. These are examples as to what Canadian fairs and exhibitions must do to convince Canadians that they "have within their power the prdouc- tion of the finest foodstuffs and that they can never slacken vigil- ance and care in production, care- ful handling, storing, packaging, transporting, ' and processing, in order to guarantee that high quality which would justify the stamp or brand "CANADA". Canadian Cruisers Due in Mexico .» Acapuler, Mexico, Noy, 45 -- (AP)--Two Canadian cruisers an' an aircraft carrier are sched- uléd to arrive here No., 26, the Neval base commander .as an- nounced, He said the ships were 'bring- ing a. detachment of Canadian -City inauguration troops to take part in,the Mexico Day parade Dec..1 when Miguel Aleman takes office, " i BELLEVILLE COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE =Cut Courtesy Belleville Ontario Intelligencer Quality Of Canadian Eggs Much Improved By Science By GEORGE KITCHEN Canadian Press Staff Writer Ottawa, Nov, 25, (CP)--This is the story of the birth and develop- ment of the humble Canadian egg --the eating kind, of course--which is gradually 'moving into the heavy- weight class. That means, just in case it skip- ped your notice, that the egg you ate for breakfast this morning was heavier, healthier and better looking than those you had five, 10 or 20 years ago. , Chances are that it had a tough- er shell, though it wouldn't actual- 4 bounce if you dropped it, and hat the "white" was thicker, too, which means tastier-looking eggs for those who like them poached. And, to top it off, there are more of the new variety because the Ca- nadian hen is laying them faster. Credit for this achievement in bringing a better egg to the Cana- dian breakfast table goes to the men of the poultry production ser- vice of the Federal Agriculture De- partment and a flock of hens known as the blue-bloods of the barnyard. The experts are the men who ad- minister the Department's "record of production" policy, which aims at the improvement of Canada's poul- try industry by placing stress on the use of approved, thoroughbred family stock as laying flocks. The service keeps tab on the pro- duction of selected flocks of certl- fied birds and has proved over the years that an average production of 250 eggs and more per bird is possible with the use of selected ens that while the estimated annual average production of all Canadian hens was placed at 116 eggs in 1944- 45, the average reached by Cana- dian R.O.P. breeders registered with the service was 182 eggs. One se- lected group of birds reached an all-time high average of 225 eggs. The statistics of one breeder alone show the results of good stock. In 1920-21 he entered 300 hens in the service's annual survey and they produced an average of 155 eggs. In 1944-45, 626 hens from the same farm laid an average of 236, The grand champion' among all The figures show, for instance, I the hens under the service's sta- tistical eye is one which laid 354 eggs in a single year. This was beaten out by a common barnyard hen which produced 356 in a year but proved to be only a freak and of little use in the plan of breeding improved stock. There's one thing the service has to guard against, They have to make sure the hens WINTER MEANS HARD STARTING @ Q \ HAVE A BATTERY Let us put your battery in tip-top shape now, 50 that when zero weather starts soon, you'll be able to step on the starter . . . and start!

Unwanted Visitor Comes To Canada 'Two specimens of an unfamili- in Toronto, Montraal. and other parts of East- ern. Canada recently have been identified by Dr. C. R. Twinn, Di. vision of Entomology, Science Service, Dominion Department of Agriculture, as the brown dog tick. The discovery is an interest- ing one, says Dr. Twinn, because the species in Canada has been recorded only in a few places, The brown dog tick is an Old World species which established itself in the northern States, and is now srreading northwards. The gormal hos. -is dogs and these animals and their surround- ings may become heavily infested. A particularly troublesome fea- ture is that the various life st .ges of the tick may become es- tablished in homes where infest ed "dogs are kept. In other words, this tick is a domestic pest. Where prevalent, the ticks may occur in great numbers around baseboards, window und do 1 ca- sings, curtains, and furniture. A favourite hiding place is also un- der the edges of rugs. . In the United States, DDT has been successfully used in control- ling this species. Infe.ied dogs should be dusted with 10 per cont DDT powder or washed with water containing one per cent of DDT as a wettable powder, To rid the ticks from houses, all possible hiding places should be sprayed with a 5 per cent residual spray, r: a 10 per cent dust may be us- ed, blowing it into cracks, crev- ices and other places. Particular attention should be given to the treatment of dog kennels and oth- ¢. places where dogs sleep, Drug Thefts Due To Huge Prices Windsor, Nov, 25... -- (CP)-- The high vrice obtained for ille- gal drugs--from $3 to $5 for a grefn of morphine--compared to the legal price of $4.76 for 25 grains, was blamed for numerous drug thefts in Essex county this year by Cpl.
