WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 193? THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE runs into several hundred thousand ctJes annually, under normal con- ditions; in 1929, for example, it totall- ed over 329,000 cases. Large sales of the sardines are made in various foreign countries, as well, of course, na in the domestic market. Time For Serious Study Herring Industry Is Worth Much To Canada Herring are perhaps of too common occurrence to be rated as aristocrats among the fishes but they're worth a good many hundred thousand dollars to Canada every year.

It may be expected to /be back to such figures again when the economic eituation has improved. Herring are taken in the sea fish- cries of both Canada'-- coasts as well as in the inland fisheries of Quebec and Ontario and in some waters ot the Prairie Provinces. The largest production is in British Calumbia. Tlie common herring of the Atlantic is described by Halkett as "bluci-sh, being shiny silvery below; it may reach a length of about sixteen inches." The same authority says of the Pacific herring that "like the common herrnig it is folueish in col- our, is silvery on the sides and be- low, and may reach a length of abput a foot and a half." HAVE MANY USE.S Herring taken in the freshwater fisheries are all marketed fresh,, but the sea herring are sold in many different forms. For use as food they are sold fresh, canned, smoked, dryxalted, boneless, and pickled, and they are tasty eating. In British Columbia the greater part of '.the yearly catch is drysalted for exrlprt to China, although there is some p^o- duction of smoked herring. Canning pickling, etc., are done on the Atlan- tic coast but no drysalting. On both coajts there is some utilization of these fish in the manufacture of fish meal and oil and in New Brunswick an interesting feature of the herring in- dustry is the use of the scales in pro- ducing an essence which is employed n making artificial pearls. It is in New Brunswick, too, that the im- of expenditures and to undertake foi the present only those that are Absol- utely essential.

Collegiate, the public and separate schools was $367, 789.23 ou; c'f a total estimated expenditure of $1,361,731.60 almost one-third of the money raised by direct taxation was allotted for school purposes. The past decade or so has witnes- sed a broadcning-out in our educa- tional programmes, both in the cur- ricula and in extending education to a larger number of our youth. Lib- eral grants by the government were an inducement for school bcardj to spend more money and we got into a spending habit that must be curbed until we regain our equilibrium fin- ancially. In the interim there should be serious thought as whether 100 per cent, value Is being obtained for the money spent under the present educational system. Kitchener Rec- ord.

There is a good reaso-r improper diet, constipation and lack for saying that the person with a clear skin, which is free from blemish, looks healthy for he likely is. The skin is an organ of the body, and so it reflects tl.o general condition of the body, whether th', be .'avorably or unfavorably. Blemishes of the skin are not ser- ious, but they are annoying, and they cause discomfort and embarrassment of fresh air, exercise and sleep. In general we may say that an un- hygienic Hie may be reflected in- these skin conditions, and that where attention is given to the simple rules of healthy living, they are far less likely to occur. When blackheads and pimples do occur, attentfon is given to the gen- eral habits of the patient's life rathei to those who are afflicted with them, than to the skin. The diet must be Blackheads usually develop on the considered. Any insufficiency of face, but they arc seen sometimes on j green vegetables and of fruits is the back and chest. It is during idolescence that they generally begin to show themselves, and they tend to disappear as the individual grows older. The blackheads arc due to the block- ing of the pores with the secretions of the gland which are excessive.

The blackhead act? as a foreign body and irritates the pore. Pus-forming germs may get into this plug of blockcd-up secretions and if so, they cause pimples which may extend and cause boils. The condition is most common among among those individuals who have an oily skin. However, as we Cleanliness of the skin is necessary if the skin is to be healthy. The face is to be washed regularly with a non-irritating soap and water. The idea that soap and water are harmful to the complexion, and that the face should be cleased with creams only, is all wrong. Greases mechanically plug up the pores, thus helning black- heads to form; what is needed is washing to clean the skin. A good complexion comes from within and is an cxpres-aion of per- sonal health. It cannot be bought and applied on the outside. NEW PROCESS FOR HONEY Dr. Dyce, who haj achieved promin- ence in connection with the invention of a new method of processing honey, is and has been for several years u member of the 0. A. C. Faculty. The discovery of this new process was made as the result of research con- ducted by him while on leave of ab- sence and taking post-graduate work at Cornell University. The process i.s now recognized as being of great value to the honey industry and Dr. Dyce is deserving of commendation for having applied for patents in both the United States and Canada, and for turning these over to Cornell University for the United States and o O.A.C. for Canada. Stated briefly, the process is one of pasteurizing the honey at a certain temperature to prevent fermentation and .then cooling it rapidly to avoid loss of flavor. Ten per cent, ot previously processed honey is stirred into the liquid honey after it is cool- ed. This acts as a starter which promotes rapid granulation, so that within a few days, at a lower torn- norature, the whole mass takes on f fine, smooth, uniform, semi-solid tex- ture; is safe from fermentation, ami retains its natural delicious flavor This processed honey is very satis- factory for table and kitchen use.

MC.MASTER MCDONALD The home of Mr. and Mrs. Angus McDonald, Singhampton, was the scene of a pretty wedding on Wed- nesday, January 27th, at dour o'clock, when their eldest daughter, Sara Isobel, became the bride of Mr. Wai- ; ter McMaster, Maxwell. The cer- ' emony took place in the living room beneath an arch of evergreens, centred \vith a white wedding bell. The officiating minister was Rev. Shannon of Singhampton Presbyterian church. Thn bride entered the living room on the arm of her father to the strains <>f the wedding march, played by Miss Mary Batcman. She looked lovely n a blue canton crepe dress with shoes to match. Her bridesmaids were Misses Elsie and Margaret McDonald, sisters, who were frocked in flowered chiffon dresses, shoes and hoes to match. The groomsman was Mr. William McMaster, brother of the orronm. The groom's gifts to trip bridemaids were silver bar pins, tc the groomsman gold cuff links, to the organist a string of pearls. After the bride and groom had re- ceived the congratulations of their friends, a wedding breakfast was served. The table fas charmingly arranged with pink and white stream- ers and corner bows. A three-storied wedding cake centred the table. Friends of the bride made charming assistants. Mr. and Mrs. McMaster left later on a honeymoon trip to Toronto and other points, the bride travelling in a brown crepe dress, chonga coat and matching accessories. On their return they will be at home to their friends in their new home at Warcham. with travelling brushes to keep it clean. A second weed screen in the deck just behind the cylinder was also recommended. This screen woulo catch most of the light weed seeds such as sow thistle, which ordinarily go out with the straw. Other observations made in the survey were that 10 per cent, of the threshermen were careless, inexper- ienced and inefficient and that the work done by this group was uni- formly poor. Some farmers in their anxiety to get the threshing over in a hurry would not give the thresher time to adjust his mill or clean it properly, and in some cases he was not allowed to put en enough wind to clean the grain properly. These cases were, however, the exception rather than the rule. Grain and weed screens in some cases did not receive enough care. Some mills were too large for On- tario conditions. Some tractors were too small to keep up steady speed, all of which resulted in poorly cleaned grain. As it is now becoming the practice to market commercial grain direct from the threshing mill without furth- er cleaning, it B most important that the grain come from the threshing mill in a fairly clean state, and one of the objects of the Brotherhood of Threshermen is, through their organ- ization to improve the quality of work done by the average thresher.

PAT About Threshing Of all reports submitted at the recent 18th annual convention of the Ontario Brotherhood of Threshermen, one of the most interesting was that of G. W. Michael, Dominion Seed Branch, Harriston. This report cov- ered a survey of Western Ontario threshing mills, which he made last autumn. Mr. Michael pointed out that light (Train, and price of cutting, made 1931 a difficult year. Further, ho found that most of the common makes of threshing mills were efficient providing they were in good state or repair and adjusted pro- perly. The survey revealed, how ever, that the weed screen in the shoe of most mills was entirely inadequate, the usual width of this screen being only 12 to 15 inches, and in some cases the screen was either plugged up or covered with n board. As there is plenty of room in the shoe of all sills for a screen at least four feet wide, Mr. Michael recommends that n scroon from thvee to four feet wide be made Stamford equipped in all new mil's and that this screen be equipped S.
