Jack The Advance of July 30th, 1919, had the following front page article: "When asked as to the progress of the threeâ€" day campaign to raise $10,000 for a club house for the G.W.V.R., as anâ€" nounced last week, Secretary W. S. Macpherson said this morning that everything was goim well and the canvassers were getting good results. though no returns had been made from the first two days of the campaign. As will be noted by the advertisement in this issue, the committee is issuing a booklet to explain the plans and purâ€" poses of the campaign, and that the time for the drive has been extended. As the advertisement phrases it:â€"*"The Citizens‘ Committee appointed to inâ€" stitute? collections for the Memorial Fund of the Veterans find a certain haziness in the minds of many as to the details of the plan. Accordingly, the campaign time has been extended, and a booklet prepared giving full dâ€" tails." At the regular mecting of Tisdale township council, held at South Porâ€" cupine twenty years Frank C.

Mr. Robertson was quoted as saying that the strike was caused by the reâ€" fusal of thr mines to deal with the men. This attitude, he thought, reâ€" sulted from a prejudice against the Western Federation of Miners. This prejudice at one time was fully justiâ€" fied, ho considered, but the Miners‘ Union of 1919 should not be classed with its predecessors of ten years preâ€" vious in his estimation. The men had agreed to Government proposals for a conferene and discussion, but the mines declined the suggestion. The men urged the Government to taks ers Cheques. ..

As announced previously, a twoâ€"year heavy development program was planâ€" ned for the purpose of determining the ore possibilities and probable average mine grade.

'Furthcrmore, we had not heard of !patcnt pirates because under our law patent piracy is, I think, not possible, although of that I am not sure. But it was brought home to Banting and Best and their colleagues that, though insulin was only in the initial stages of its development had not been perfected for clinical use, it was Oobâ€" vious not only that there would be great and ursent demand for the proâ€" duct but also that some material _matelal improvement in the product would probably be made quite soon, which improvement might ‘be made outside the university by some party actuated by profit motives who mignt cbtain a patent that could be adminâ€" istered purely for his own benefit or the benefit of his company, were the University of Toronto not to obtain a basic patent to which improvement patents would subsidiary,. "Fear of the dangers of such a deâ€" velopment proved within a few months to have been warranted. A material improvement in the process of preâ€" this improved process was patentable, it could have developed that the whole world would have had to pay excissive tribute to the inventor of this process had there not been a basic patent standing in the way, and had our nocks not been saved by a happy comâ€" bination of other fortunate cireumâ€" stances. It was only in these cireumâ€" stances that it proved possible to avoid dangers which were originally feared and which sasily might have actually materialized within a year of the first clinical use of insulin. This fact and also the story behind a pattnt of a machine to reduce and prevent wore recently revealâ€" ed at a conference on medical patents conducted by the American Medical Association at Chicago. During the discussion, F. Lorne Hutâ€" chinson, Toronto Comptroller of the Connauzht Laboratories and Execuâ€" tive Secretary of the Insulin Commitâ€" tee, University of Toronto, pointed out that though the need of . protection through patenting was not frequent, the case of insulin was one example which did demonstrate that need. » Toronto, Aug. 9â€"It is now 17 years since insulin was first used clinically but in spite of its worldâ€"wide fams, few persons, even in Canada, have ever heard that the discovery of Sir Fredorick Banting and Dr. Best is protected by a basic patent..

In regions where there is not a too heavy rainfall or where watering is not carried out, applicaâ€" tions of copper nitrate have been found advantageous., Dr. McRostie of Ontario Acricultural College has had remarkâ€" able results in controlling dandelions by this method. He recommends two applications in July, August, or Sepâ€" tember, at the rate of one and a half pounds of copper nitrate to seven and a half gallons of water per 1,000 square feet, The young seedlings woud have to be killed by application the following year. It has not been determined how many years this application could be used safely, for ultimately the accumuâ€" lation of copper would become toxic to the grass itself, The nitrate, will, of course, stimulate the grass and the copâ€" per suppresses or kills the dandelions It is well worth a trial, says Mr. Davis, where dandelions are very troublesome. improved by some one who might take a patent on the improvement and colâ€" lect excessive royalties from it.
