" PAGE TWELVE THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE i MONDAY, JUNE 4, 1951 . New Type Silo May Improve Farming Methods FARMER Borer" " Y MAY BE IN THE MAKING a On farm owned by naval veteran . Alvin C. Beggs, of Sunderland, Ont., 40 volunteer workers from the Veterans' Land Act department built a new-type trench silo, which if proven successful following thorough, practical test on June 15, will become standard equipment for the 10,000 or so veterans under VLA. And if the whole idea catches on the rural landscape of Ontario will see a big change, with gradual disappearance of the round tower- like silo, that features many farms today into ground. The "digging bee" was the result of a decision by | officials to try out this new-type trench silo which had arisen as to pros and cons of a silo which is| built underground and not over- | head, { ~--Central Press Canadian. | vitality, in the streets of Tel-Aviv | was not the Hora nor the dance of | the Sub-Compmission on Freedom | of Information, but the Beseda, a | Moravian f8lk-dance which I had | learned for the first time during |the war in Manchester, where I | had to perform it on the stage of | the Anthenaecum to celebrate the | Czechoslovak Independence Day, | dressed as a middle-aged Sub- | carpatho-Russian yokel.

SCOWL AT JUDGES « When art, in the shape of an ad- miring owner, has brushed and combed' him and tied a ribbon round his neck and put him in a show cage, does he always try to look his best? He does not, and his dirtiest look is too often re- served for the judges. Foreign cats may leave their sulkiness at home, and this may explain why none of the British. champions, who have been competing in Rome against the cream of the continent, was able to win the cup for the best cat in Europe. That Southway Nicholas, an American-owned blue Persian from Switzerland, defeated them is not so bad, provided they took his vie- tory in the true British sporting spirit. It would be nice to think that they miaowed '"Congratula- tions, Bid boy," and added a few well-chosen purrs about letting the best tom win. Unfortunately, sus- picion must linger as to the sound- ness of a cat's idea on what is | and is not cricket. TASK FOR PROS An initiate in the mysteries of the feline show-bench will apprec- iate the fine points of this contest. Other people, who cannot claim to move in aristocratic cat circles, but under whose roof a eommon- or-garden puss lives very much at home, must content themselves by specudating on what would con- stitute perfection in him. . An ideal, Platonic cat may sound a contradiction in terms and, yet, it ought to be possible to imagine one. Close the eyes and a vision appears of an animal fat, but not too fat, and friendly, but not too friendly. Before it jumps up on to a lap it looks to be sure that it will be welcome and, before it settles down there, it scorns to revolve in circles to poke its tail between the face and book or sewing of its victim, or to stretch out its claws into a leg. It never sneers at its food. Milk with a little water in it is not treated with disdain. Reminder that dinner-time is near is made in a polite miaow; raucous, per- emptory demands never pass the barrier of those suave whiskers. No hair from that sleek body is found on a counterpane and kit- tens are born and bred in the receptacle provided for them. SPARE BIRDS Purring drowsily in the spring sunshine, the perfect cat watches birds without interfering with their housekeeping. If mice invade the 'larder, it kills them without more ado and without carrying its catch into the dinjng-room. If the meat ration lies eXposed all the af-! ternoon on the kitchen- table, it | will be as safe as if cats were | vegetarians. If a ball of wool is left on an armchair, it is not found later hopelssly ravelled under the d Roof Mai Service D. PARKHURST Carpenter and Roofer ' 272 Grooms Ave. Diol 3-4274 J. H.

Next day at the silent hour of dawn Haman was hanged in the courtyard of the royal palace on the -very gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. DAY OF REJOICING Because the Jews--not a very happy people--still had no date in| their calendar for dancing in the streets and shouting from the roof- tops, they thought that this occa- sion might do for rejoicing as well as any other.

Let it be black or white, tabby or tortoiseshell, let ginger be hot on its fur -- every kitten should be taught to follow in its pawmarks. Mankind, shamed by its perfection, will blush to recall the odious old sayings. No one will speak again of swinging a cat or of letting it out of the bag or of watching which way it jumps and how it walks on hot bricks. Mr. T. S.

A 12-man Supreme Court jury convicted him of murder in the death of 13-year-old Lura Grant after deliberating two hours. Mr. Justice A. M.
