Recent League of Nations troubles h.ave brought the question to the fore and a statement by Agnes Mac- phair. M.P., has started a bit of dis- cussion. Miss Macphail is quoted as saying: "I'm North America conscious. Why should you, why should I, why should North .America take Europe seriously?

But the thing is not so simple as that for while Europe is still, as an American cabinet min'ster remark- ed during the war, "Three thousand miles away," it is more closely thin ever tied up with us. Miss Macphail's statement was made at a U. F. 0. convention in Toronto and that seems a peculiar that is the cheapest to produce. At the Central E:cperimental Farm, Ottawa, it has been shown that it takes 44 pounds of mixed grain to produce a pound cf ch'cken. With grain at one cent a pound, • therefore, the extra pound of flesh Empire countries with last year's fig is develope.i at a cost of about five ures in brackets; Australia, $2,403- eign countries increased by 21 per cent, or more than $6,000,000.

Quite aside from any political or cultural debt the country may owe to Europe or any hereditary senti- mental interest it n'.ay have, that continent pro\'ides Canada with its main market for wheat, for bacon, Work frequently gets us , for canned milk, for fruits, for cop- . . Worrv never, never per. for zinc and so on. I The farmer and the rest of the people of Canada thus have a very definite reason to worry over what goes on in Europe. cents counting the milk that is used. This extra five cents means from two to five cents a pound more for the whol bird. Incidentally the fee<ling of mixed grain to poultry provi ies a goo<i market for coarse grains. In recent years m'xed grain has sold as low as 50 cents per 100 pounds at the elevators. Had this grain been fed to chickens of good type, and the chickens sold at even 10 cents per pound, 100 pounds of gr:i:n instead of bringing the farmer 50 cents a* the elevator would have brought his over $2.00 per cwt. through the fat chicken route. The place for this extra feeding is before the birds leave the hands of the producer. The lack of quality in much of Canada's dressed poultry is one reason why Canadians are comparatively small eaters of poultry, the per capita consumption being about 10 pounds as against 18 pounds in the United States.

How To Reduce The Best Poultry In a recent radio talk prepared by the Dominion Poultry Husbandman it was pointed out that both the pro- ducer and the consumer should real- ize it is poor business to sell or buy poultry which is thin in flesh. To sell a bird not properly finished does not pay the producer, for he misses his best opportunity to make a profit. It is false economy for the consumer to buy such a bird even price per pound may be lower, for he gets too iittle flesh and too much waste. There are two main liflferences in the eating of the thin bird and the flesh bird: One is the increased pro- portion of edible meat on the fat bird compared with the thin bird and «oor, and she watched with interest!

SEVEN YEARS' AGONY ENDE D BY SAS KASAL First Bottle Brousht Relief from Painful Rheumatism lead this letter: "I had rheumatism f«r seven years and never lei t me night «r day, puns something awful.

An ordinary thin or range bird at 10 cents a pound is dearer than a well-fleshed bird at 15 cents per pound, because the difference in weight that the fleshed bird has is made up almost entirely cf flesh, the waste, such as bones, read and feet, being practically the same w^hether thin or fleshed. There is also a not- able difference in the quality of the flesh. The flesh on the thin bird is tough and dry, and what little oil or juice there may be, has a tendency to dr>' out in cooking. The producer is evidently rather too willing to market his poultry without finish, and the consumer too often has no choice in the matter, because there is not enough of the quality product to go around. The producer is working against his own best interests every time he markets an unfinished! bird. It is this last pound or two put on in »he finishing One never knows where fire will strike. Every minute of the day, ev- ery day of the year over $100.00 worth ct property Is destroyed in Canada. You can do your part In minimizing this terrific drain upon our human and physical resources by observing the following nine rules for Fire Pre- ' vention: ! (1) Keep matc-hes In a closed mftal container, inaccessible to children. ' Handle them carefully and dispose of them properly, making certain they are extinguished before you let them : leave your hand. j (2) Always disconnect electric irons, toasters, heaters and similar; appliances from the sockets when ! through using them. Never use any i substitutes for approved fuses. (3) Inspect, clean and repair your chimneys and flufs before Winter ar- rives. (i) Place hot ashes In metal can-- and dump them in places free from combustible material. Set On Wheat Crop Toronto. â€" Preliminary govern- ment estimate of the value of the Canadian wheat crop is nearly $197,- 000.000 or about $3!o00,0ii0 less than last year, it was stated in the week- ly grain report of the Canadian Bank of Commerce. The prairie crop ac- counted for $153,000,000 of the to- ta'. $5,500,000 less t'nan in 1934. Winter wheat conditions in the Un- itde States were generally favorable, the report continued, adding that more moisture would be desirable in the southwest. The acreage seeded for the 1936 crop is larger than last season. Harvesting has started in northern Argentina, but will be somewhat later than usual in the south, where useful rains have fall- en recentlv. London. â€" A far-reaching scheme for cutting down damage done by fire â€" it amounts to approximately £10,000000 ($50,000,000) a yearâ€" Is to be lau:iched in this country. The plan has the backing of gov- ernment departments, municipal au- thorities, the Royal Institute of Bri- tish Architects, ouilding and engi.n- eering experts, and the great tariff insurance companies. Sensational changes in building materials and methods of construc- tion, and sweeping revision of prem- ium rates for fire risks, are only two cf the important outcomes expected from the scheme. A fire testing station â€" only one of its k:nd in the world â€" has just beer. completed at Boreham Wood. Elstree. It is on the work to be carried out here that the hopes of bringing down fire damage by millions of pounds a year are based . The station has been set up by the Fire Officers' Committee â€" an organ- ization comprising all the tariff firi; insunince companies. Its most remarkable feature is a building which contains three mobile furnaces, each capable of testing building specimens at temperatures ranging from 1.000 to 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit, and for periods of ex- posure from half an hour to six hours. Special machinery wor'King under pressure of up to 4,500 pounds to the square inch, has been provided for applying the necessary "load" to specimen walls and columns while they are being tested. The increasing financial toll exact- ed by fires and the development in recent years of new building mater- ials and methods cf construction spurred the fire officers' committee to search for a standard method of assessing the fire-resisting qualities of the various elements in the con- struction o: a build'ng â€" r.cors. walls columns, and so on. A specification for "fixe reslstanct incombustibility, and non-inflamma- bility of building materials anv.' stracture" was eventually evolved by the British Standards Institution. It established five grades, accor ing to the severitv of the tests .ip- plied. This specification is kn-.>wn as 'No 476." There will be two immediate re- sults of this advance in the fight against fire waste; local author-ties and others interested in the building side cf fire control will be urged to make use of specification "No. 476" in preparing their requ'.reraents. and those manut'a-.-turers who wish to do so will have their products tested and graded . "Revolutionary building cha:".gC5 are almost bound to come," said an expert recently. "Local authorities will hardly be able to avoid stipulating for the standards specified, and manufactur- ers who do not submit t'neir products for test or whose products fai! ' to reach the standard will be at an ob- vious disadvantage.
