6 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Friday, October 4, 105% Editorials : Times-Gazette (Oshawa, Whitby), bi'shed by Times-Gazetts Publishers. Limited. Tae Day Eicon. Birect Soath, Oshawa, Ontario Times-Gazette Carriers Going on Trip to Buffalo At the present time a keen salesmanship contest is being waged by the carrier boys . and girls of The Times-Gazette, with the award for those successful consisting of a three day®' -trip, with all expenses paid, to Buffalo and Niagara Falls. Already a sub- stantial number of this newspaper's car- riers have qualified for the trip, and many others are not far short of their goal. It is likely that from 50 to 60 Oshawa and dis- trict boys and girls will have qualified be- fore the contest comes to a close. While it is possible that mogt of the boys and girls in the contest look upon this trip as an enjoyable holiday outing, which it un- doubtedly will be, the entertainment fea- tures are overshadowed in value by the im- portance of the educational aspects of the trip. The boys and girls who make up the party will have opportunities given to few to observe at first-hand some important pro- jects. For instance, they will see the power plants at Queenston in operation and under construction, and will be given a clear ine sight into the vast power potentialities of Niagara Falls. Their visit to the Buffalo Museum of Natural History will in itself "provide a liberal education. They will see some of the finest United States naval air- craft in action at a naval air station at Ni- agara Falls, N.Y. These features of the trip alone justify terming it an educational expedition of the finest type, much more valuable in its own way than many days in school. Therefore it is the hope of the management of The Times-Gazette that as many as possible of the paper's carrier boys and girls should be- come eligible to make the trip. Perhaps our 'readers can help to increase the number by the assistance they give to their own car- riers to qualify. Liberal Nomination Fight Shows Healthy Democracy The fact that two candidates have indi- cated their intention to allow their names to go before the Liberal nominating conven- tion to select a candidate for the federal election on Monday next is a healthy sign. It indicates that there will be a lively inter- est in the affairs of the party when the con- vention assembles at the Whitby Town Hall. This is further shown by reports that there may be other names before the meeting in addition to those of John L. Lay and Robert J. Harris, who have already thrown their hats into the ring. One of the weaknesses of democracy is that of persuading well qualified candidates to enter the field as standard-bearers of the parties of their choice. There have been oc- casions in this riding when nominations by political parties have practically gone beg- ging because of the unwillingness of party members to accept their responsibilities of citizenship to the extent of standing as can- didates.. On too many occasions, there has been no opposition to the man who was the choice of the party executive, so that he had no opportunity of testing the will of the people as to his candidature. Because of this, it is encouraging to note that there is going to be a keen battle for the Liberal nomination. Both of the men who have made known their intentions so far are well qualified by ability and experi- ence to make a good run in an election cam- paign, and to be worthy representatives of the riding if either one should be elected. Regardless of which receives the nomina- tion, by contesting the nominagion they are making a contribution to the functioning of democracy in Ontario Riding. Soil Fertility and Nutrition Announcement by Dr. J. A. Anderson, chief chemist to the Board of Grain Com- missioners that this year's record wheat crop is one of the three lowest in protein in the last 24 years, is regarded as disturbing news by the Lethbridge Herald. It is disturb- ing because the protein content of the wheat crop, on the average, is below what is re- quired for the making of good bread. Mil- lers demand a wheat of about 14 per cent protein content, and this year's average is about 12% per cent. Therefore grain ex- perts are figuring that it will be difficult to sell Canada's 1952 wheat crop because of this factor. This condition in Canada's wheat can be taken as a danger signal, a warning perhaps, to Canadian wheat farmers. It ties in with the fact that the nutritional value of food depends on the condition of the soil on which. it is produced, The chemical contents of the soil are transmitted to the crops grown. If the soil is deficient in certain chemical ele- ments, the crops will also be deficient in them. That is what has occurred in the case of wheat. The matter goes even further. The nutritional value of butter or cheese or milk depends largely on the chemicals in the soil \ Editorial Notes The Community Chest is everybody's business, and everybody should contribute.

DAILY AVERAGE CIRCULATION for SEPTEMBER 10,360 < - on which the feed for the dairy cattle is grown. If the soil is run down, has lost its fertility, which means its essential chem- icals and minerals, then the food products resulting will lack proper nutritive qualities. We can recall a few years back attending a 4-H Club camp in South Carolina, where children from the farms of that state were in attendance. We noted their under-size and under-nourished appearance as compar- ed with our own Ontario Junior farmers. Commenting on this to one of the experts of the South Carolina College of Agricul- ture, he replied that this was due to the soil of South Carolina being very badly worn out, and lacking the elements required to give their food a proper nutritive value. What has been found in the 1952 Cana- dian wheat crop, then, can be taken as a' warning that the fertility of our soil needs attention. Farmers need to make sure that they put back into it, regularly, those ele- ments which build up fertility, and at the same time build up the nutrition required in their products. They need to enlist the as- sistance of our agricultural scientists to en-: sure that the goods Canada produces will not suffer in quality.

West Ready For Sub War But Shy Ships OTTAWA (CP) -- Britain's First Sea Lord said yesterday the west- ern powers have devices capable of coping with the latest submar- ines but a shortage of fighting ships to use them. 'Talking freely about the sort of sea war that could be anticipated in any armed conflict with Russia, Admiral Sir Rhoderick McGrigor told a press conference that--if it came--it would undoubtedly be ushered in by intensive submarine and mine-laying operations by the Soviet. It happens, he added, that the worst naval shortages among the Atlantic Pact powers are in anti- submarine escort vessels and mine sweepers, the types that would be most needed. Canada has ordered 14 new-type anti-sub = escort vessels and as many new minesweepers but pro- duction has been delayed. None of them yet is in service. A reporter asked Sir Rhoderick, here for talks with Canadian de- fence l..ders aiter a visit to the Far East, whether the west has kept pace with the spectacular schnorkel submarines initiated by the Germans and now in Russian use. The answer was: "I can fairly say we have made very great pro- gress in anti-s:bmarine develon- ments--in hunting, 'ocating and destroying. them." Nobody could tell unless they were tried out in actual warfare just how the devi- ces would stand up. But he didn't think they would be outmatched, The first prohibition law in the United States was adopted by Maine in 1846.
