reason 90 per cent of the cream shippers in the local district sell their cream to the stouffville creamery the reason for this is that they get best results try it stouffville creamery co closed every evening excepting saturday phone 18601 numerous enquiries are being made about the farm creditors arrangement act which the king government has submitted to the supreme court of canada to test the validity of the bennett legislation in that behalf so far no decision lias been handed out and the act is still the law of the country what ever the findings are it is hoped that some sound legislation will come out of it with ontario disputed agreements between borrower and lenderswhere the parties could not agree the county chairman of the board sent the case on to a board of three members in toronto and hundreds of cases that came before the local boards last summer and autumn are still unsettled and neither mortgagees nor mortgagors know where they stand in regard to pay ments of both interest and principal the intention of the act was to relieve farmers from paying exces sive interest rates on mortgages and where excessive prices had been paid for farm properties in war days when high prices for produce prevailed to have the price of the property reduced by a reasonable i mutual agreement j in many instances satisfactory adjustment were arrived at but other purchasers who had not paid an ex- horbitant price for their farms nor an abnormally high rate of interest made unreasonable demands for re ductions both in principal and interest that those who held the mortgage and whose livelihood was based on the annual payments of interest could not come to terms with the purchasers and as before stated the disputed cases are still hanging fire what will be the outcome of the supreme courts decision on those cases where an agreement was arriv ed at by the local board if the act is ulta vires or unconstitutional it will be necessary for legislation to be passed by the federal parliament to confirm agreements already arriv ed at and with unsettled cases it will be as you were or the whole arrangement now before the board at toronto are off the result of the farmers credi tors act has been to stop loans from banks to all who have taken advan tage of the act to make mortgages on farm property hard to secure and a general alarm in all mortgage our

natural reaction to change is resist ance and the more logical hip change the stronger the resistance annually there is a dispute about daylight saving and it still is not adopted nationally there is a hazv but effective opinion among the fun damentalists at least that our clocks and watches were set by moses on mount sinai and that it would be impious to alter them it impiety is involved in so simple a matter as setting back a clock how much more serious in the change of our whole calendar yet every business man will admit it pressed that our present calendar is cockeyed the two halves of tha year are of unequal length the quarters are not the same oir children still have to memorize thirty days hath september etc in the march issue of the cana dian chartered accountant the editor reviews the present status of the movement for calendar reform char- tered accountants are naturally among those greatly interested in the- movement for accounting frequently makes necessary the comparison or one period with another and the lack of periods of equal leucth brings dismay to their orderly souls our present calendar he points out goes back two thousand years tt the days of julius caesar with cer tain adjustments made in 1582 it became known as the gregorian cal endar this was adopted by the british empire in 1752 and is now in general use throughout the world the problem of reforming the cal endar is principally a matter of find ing a satisfactory formula for a change without making the change so sweeping that it could not pos sibly secure general approval one objection to the thirteenmonth cal endar is that the number thirteen is unpopular anyway and the public would not welcome it the main objection is that thirteen is not con veniently divisible into halves dr quarters the present movement for calendar reform retains the twelve months under their present names in fact the alterations are so slight that they would be hardly noticed yet they accomplish all that chartered accountants and busi ness men generally desire the proposed calendar now known as the world calendar has twelve months totalling 364 days the 3g5th day will be a holiday following the last day of december leap year day will come every fourth year probably at the end of junethe year is divisible into two equal halves of 1s2 days each and four equal quarters of 31 days each the world calendar provides a fixed date for easter april s we view this change with some personal regret for being of a mathematical rather than a religious turn of mind we used to while away many a dull sermon hour in our boyhood by com puting coming easter dates from the involved formulae for golden num bers at the beginning of the prayer hook we cannot concoct a metrical ver sion of the world calendar but its simplicity makes one unnecessary january april july and october will have 31 days and all the rest will have 30 all 31day months begin on sunday february may august and november will begin on wednesday the others will begin on friday the date of easter will fix tne dates of other religious holidays other holidays will be celebrated on the same dates as at present the only months that will bo changed in length are february march april may august and december in order to bring about the change with the least possible confusion it is proposed to make it effective on january 1 1939 the world calen dar association had worked to make the change on january 1 1933 that date being sunday not being suc cessful then it has had to make its objective six years later and a fur ther sixyear delay will be imposed if public opinion cannot be sufficient ly educated within the next three years in canada the support for reform has been organized under the ration al calendar association which is affiliated with similar associations througnout tne world the real im petus to the present movement came from the international chamber ot commerce in 1922 when it took a lead in the matier and brought it to the attention ot the league of na tions the following year the league appointed the communications and transport committee to make a spe cial study of the problem and was thereby instrumental in securing for it the consideration of every nation many other proposals for reform have been seriously considered but the world calendar is now the only one which receives strong general support thus for nearly fourteen years a reform which nearly everyone will admit is needed and to which no serious objection can be raised has struggled ahead strawberry plants for sale
