Anne Church, had been turned over to men who gave the password "Holy Virgin of Czesto- chowa," and who produced a re- ceipt, . The treasures, formerly a part of | the collection of the Royal Castle of Wawel in Cracow, had been spir- ited out of Poland ahead of the ad- vancing German armies in 1040. On arrival in Canada, they 'were placed in the records building, in the government-owned central ex- perimental farm here. Dr, Fiderkiewicz claimed that last {may the former legation staff mov- jed 34 trunks from the farm, place | ing 24 of them in the church at Ste. Anne and eight at, the Ottawa cone | vent, Two others were placed in | the vault of an Ottawa branch of | the Bank 'of Montreal, and these have been found intact, Rumors have been heard from {time to time in Ottawa that the {Polish election next month may bring developments in the case. These rumors--no one knows ex- actly where they started--were to the effect that the location of the treasures might be disclosed if if, in the elections, a government "pro- perly elected by the people" takes over from the present regime, de- scribed by some former Polish rest- gents as being: "Russian-dominat- ed." Dr, Fiderkiewicz has stressed that | does not accuse the Roman | Catholic Church in any complicity in the crimes, When the case first came to pub- lic attention, a publication of the Polish embassy in London, charged that members of the Canadian clergy were implicated in a cone spiracy to keep the treasures in Ca- nada, Profitable Way to Feed'Winter Steers Profits from winter steer feeding are largely governed by the relative market value of steers in fall and spring with the cost of feed, labour and housing, Other factors to be considered include the selecting of good feeders and general manage- ment, says E, Van Nice, Dominion Experimental Station, Scott, Sask. When feed grain is available at 1 to 1% cents per pound and.reason- able gains are obtained, a spread of two cents per pound between buy- ing and selling price gives a good profit. Long yearlings are usually fed from 130 to 150 days and calves ap- proximately 200 days. No horns should be allowed in the feed ot and dehorning trials at the Scott Station indicate that a steer dehiorned at the beginning of the feeding period cannot be expected to make fhe total gains of a similay steer already dehorned, consequent. ly in buying feeders horned cattle are not worth as much. If only a few steers are to be fed, stall feeding is suggested, but if many are to be fed, lots of 10 to 20 are more satisfactory than larger groups. Water and salt should be kept constantly before the animals. The tank heater is valuajle to take the chill from the water f§ the cold weather so that plenty ill be drunk, Loose salt for the animals is preferable to blocks, One to two pounds of feed per head dally, ac- cording to the size of the animal, is sufficient at first and increases or change of mixture should be made gradually, In the trials at Scott, wheat, bar- ley, rye and oat have been compared; each fed alone and a fifth lot was given a mixture of equal parts of each, In an average feeding period of 138 days, mixed grain gave the greatest average gain per head of 209 lb, wheat 202 lb, barley 189 lb, rye 185 lb, and oats 181 1b. A medium grind was found more satisfactory than finely ground grain, Rye chop becomes quite pasty if finely ground and has a further dis. advantage of frequently Soniaining ergot which is harmf Bev gg Sri e grass ip oat sheaves and at ain Their "gen a full ration of chop, was in. order mentioned. It was also foun that in seasons when a green growth was in the oats bef con ed but reasonable realized by its use with ration when hay was ni at a normal price, ® Only perfect toa Is packed Daly's.

But in regard to soil conserva tion for the food of tomorrow Dr. Archibald issued a warning, Because he said, of the {vastly increased pro- | duction by Os a in agricultural / war, many | . Canadians werg prone to be very . complacent as Canada's produc- ing abllity and seach the dangerous assumption that! that feat could be repeated with no special thought of soils conservation. Actually there is evidence that | over a period of years Canada's pro. | d ability Is declining, and that, | in spite of the fine work of plant | breeders toward producing heavy | yielding varieties of better quality and resistant to disease and insects, | these insect plagues were on the increase and had been so for fifty years. Jrodustion and ty of our pro- or bring it to an end. The state-owned South African Airways intends to operate all main | line services in the Union, and | leave the operation of feeder air | services open to tender against state-operated feeder services. Conditions of tender for operating feeder services provides for the possible expropriation of a feeder | service by the state, The'test of the gbvernment"s intention will be whether privately-owned air ser- vices feel they have a fair chance to tender successfully against the state-owned South African Airways. In the path of private enterprise's bid to be in the forefront of civil aviation development in South Af- rica, is one major difficulty-- the lack of landing grounds and air- fields on routes left open to private companies. Many airfields in or near towns which are potentially good markets for air transport, are still operated by the Department of Defence. Other airfields left open to private companies have fallen into disre- pair because of the war, The construction or repair of these airfields is the concern of town municipalities, but the gov- ernment has made plans to grant financial assistance to those muni- cipalities whose airfields are includ ed in the proposed network of feed= Another obstacle in the path of private companies is a warning to commercial air operators by the Minister of Transport, Hon. F. O. Sturrock, that when conditions are | normal, it is "inevitable" that the government must sooner or later assume control of the air, with the object of eliminating economic competition and generally keeping {civil air transport "healthy."
