Because there are some that would rather feature a sentational lie than what in skilful hands might be an equally arresting truth is perhaps all the more reason why the North should appreciate the attitude of the big daily newspapers that pwize fairness, friendâ€" iiness and accuracy. In this connecâ€" tion the intelligent kindness of The Toâ€" ronto Mail and R@mpire in regard to North Land affairs is worthy of note. Friendliness is a fine thing, but intelliâ€" gent friendliness is a gem, indeed. \This statement is suggested by an editorial in a recent issue of The Toronto Mail and Empire. The point of view of The Mail and Empire should be appreciated more than all the protestations of friendship that could be made. The editorial in question says:â€" "Abnormalities of climate often reâ€". ceive undue attention, to the injury of the localities concerned. Snow and ice are associated with Northern Ontario during the winter, but they are really aedvantageous, for many of the usua: operations of those months would be impossible without them. But the proâ€" minence given to occasional blizzards and to severe drops in the temperature leave a wrong impression of the counâ€" try. For the benefit of those who may have been misled in the past, we draw attention to the beautiful weather enâ€" joyed this autumn in the North Land. "The air on most days has been like summer," says the issue of The Porcuâ€" pine Advance of Timmins published on November 20, "and flowers have been blooming and blossoming in the gardens of the town and district without any protection except the fine weather itâ€" self." Marguerites were picked up in cne garden on November 18 and fresh pansies in another on the same day. A garden in Gold Centre, Schumacher, also boasted of choice piansies at the same period. "This remarkable autumn seems to have been general in New Ontario, for The Fort William Timesâ€"Journal of November 20 says it seems to be hardly late in the fall, a thunderstorm the previous night and rain that day being not at all different from those of Auâ€" gust. Fhe flower gardens did not come to their usual end in their prime by frost. There was nothing like it this year. "This season," it says, "proves more emphatically than ever what may be accepted as truth almost year in and year out, that there are mighty few plac»s in Canada that can beat Fort William when it comes to climate." The Timesâ€"Journal, however, does not fAatter itself that there will be no cold weather. It admits that, for all it knows, winter may be lurking around the corner. So far as we know, it has net yet arrived." Ottawa Journal:â€"Japan is becoming Americanized. Thé prime minister was shot by a gunman.

Accordingly The Advance is publishing herewith a letter from R. M. Hopper, Dominion Exprrimental Farm, Brandon, Manitoâ€" ba. It is possible that when "Lap" Laâ€" prairie reads this he will start adverâ€" tising the turkeys for his Charity Turâ€" key Stag as "fed on pure castor oill." Growing boys and girls are also likely to endorse the idea of feeding cod liver cil to the poultry in the hope that there will not be enough to go around. It is a fact, however, that cod liver oil has proven of much value to countless numâ€" bers of children, building hsalth anc strength from weakness, and the exâ€" periences of expert poultrymen with the use of the oil for chicks and older birds has been equally satisfactory. In his letter in regard to the matter Mr. Hopâ€" per says:â€"â€" ' "Minerals such as calcium and phcrous are required in comparatively large quantities by laying hens and pulâ€" lets for the manufacture ‘of eggs and egg shells. The digestion and assimilaâ€" tion of minerals require one of two things: an abundance of direct sunshine or an abundance of vitamin D. The supplying of vitamin D to poultry or exposing them to direct sunshine brings added health and increased egg producâ€" tion. Where birds are closely housed during winter such as is the case in most parts of Canada they receive very little direct sunshine, and with the raâ€" tions fed, poultry frequently do not receive all the vitamins they require for profitable egg production. Cod livâ€" er oil is rich in vitamin D and is one of the reliable sources of this feed. "Three extensive tesis with cod liver oil were conducted at the Dominion Exâ€" prrimental Farm, Brandon, during the period from January to April in the years 1928, 1929 and 1930. The results from the three tests were uniformly in favour of feeding cod liver oil.. The birds receiving oil produced 20 per cent. more eggs than those that did not reâ€" ceive oil. The hatching results also showed a considerable increase as an average of fifteen more chicks were hatched from each hundred eggs laid by the oil fed birds than from the eggs laid by the birds that did not receive oil. The chicks hatched from the eggs laid by the oil fed birds had greater vitality as the mortality or death rate up to the time they were five weeks old was 10 per cent. less than with the chicks hatched from the eggs laid by the birds that did not receive oil, The combined increase in egg production, hatching, and in the vitality of chicks, proved cod liver oil to be profitable when used in the ration for poultry during winte. "The value of cod liver cil as a pou!â€" try fsed deprinds entirely on its vitamin ccntent, and only reliable tested brands should be used. Crude cod liver oil is suitable for poultry and is not expenâ€" sive to purchase. There arse several system of feeding cod liver oil that will prove satisfactory. Mixing one pint of ol to each hundred pounds of dry mash is a good method. The oil will mix readily and withsut forming lumps in a flakey meal like bran; the oil laden bran can then be mixed uniâ€" formly in the dry mash, insuring an aven distribution of the cod liver oil. Where the oil is to be fed in the wEt mash or Oother fsed, cne or two teaâ€" spoonfuls to each twelve birds have been found adequate. "o~rr~‘iâ€"n tha: May be of Value to Local Poultry Breeders. Only Reâ€" iabe Brands of Cod Liver Oil Shcould be Used. "In the ration for early hatched chicks cod liver oil has also been found to be of value in promoting growth and preventing legâ€"wsakness. Feeding at the rate of onz to two pints of oil to each hundred of fead has been found suitable amounts for chicks." CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER LAID AGAINST CONDUCTOR Last week at Cochrane R. George, conductor on the Canadian National Railways, was arrested on a charge 0 manslaughter as a result of an enguiry made into the death of Eino Bock, who was killed in a fall from a freight train at Kapuskasing on September 5th. Sergt. Gardiner, of the provincial police, made the arrest. The accused was immediately released on $4,000.00 bail provided by two business men of Cochâ€" rane. According to the theory of the prosecution it is said that Bock was forced to jump from a moving train on which he was stealing a ride. One 0® the witnesses giving evidence at the inquest said that when Bock refused to jump off the freight train when discovâ€" ered stealing a ride, the conductor hit him over the head with his lantern. The evidence at the inquest showed that as it was ten o‘clock at night, Bock would not be able to see where he was jumping. The pzeliminary trial of the accused conductor will be held at either Cochrane or Kapuskasing. The CN.R. this year has had more than ordinary difficulty with men stealing rides on the trains, on many occasions there being a number of ‘"side door Pulman car" travellers on the one freight. Someâ€" times, it has been reported, there were so many of these free travellers on the one train that the crew of the train woukl not be able even to order them off.

Due to the general market conditions, there has been a substantial reduction n the noldings of Dominion and Proâ€" vincial government securities and in Canadian municipal securities and Briâ€" tish, foreign and colunial public securiâ€" ties. As a result, call loans in Canada are $17,840,690, down from $27,460,856. and call loans in Great Britain and the United States have declined to $60,921,â€" 712 from $68,028,615.

Tha somewhat smaller volume of business being done throughout the country is reflected by a reduction in current loans in Canada to $290,872,423 from $335,301,194, while current loans outside of Canada are $42,547,341 as 2egainst $43,188,318.
