J THURSTON, AaMciato Editor ACCIDENT LEADS TO MAJOR INDUSTRY A cow Icicking over a lamp, they say, started the Chicago fire. A spider climbing a thread brought Bruce of Scotland victory. But these and many other like historical inci- dents pale before the story of the hojsewife whose carelessne-ss founded one of the most important phases of the Canadian fish industry. Away back in a Scottish village a housewife left a haddock hanging fnim the rafters of her cottage as she went out for the day. She had left it too near the peat fire, however, and when .«he returned the fish was all dried by the smoke from the fire. She decided to cook It anyway and the result was so appetizing lli.it she news spread like wildfire and smoked fish becam,. a national delicacy. Today the popularity of smoked fish has spread everywhere and the appetite for this delicacy has founded Canadian or;ranizations of interna- tional repute, some of which have been established for a century and more. The Canadian climate has been found ideal for the production of this delicacy and oth«r cored fieh and to- day the Dominion holds a foremost place in the world trade in the export of dried, smoked and pickled fish.

J. KENNEDY Phone 37 We Deliver Woodlot Is Valuable Farm woodlots should prove a val- uable asset to farmers who arc for- t unate enough to own one. The wood- land.'* or woodlots could be made to yield a good in»ome if they receiv«»d more attention. (hazing by live stock and burning probably do more damage to farm woodlands than any other agencies; and the foresters therefore recom- mend fencing of the farm woodland from live stock and taking particular rare t» see that fire does not burn ver the woods. Pasturing a wooiUniul tends to trample the litter or duff laider the I'nrest trees, packs the soil so that runoff and erosion are encouraged and prevents the growth of the new crop of trees which comus up under nor- ma,! conditions to replace the trees that are harvested. Such treatment of a woodland also reduces the actual growth of the trees themselves be- cauiH' abnormal conditions are brought about. Woodlands do not re(iuire the sarne sort of care as orchards, but farmers who want to obtain most profitable returns from their woods will need to give the tives .some attention. In- stead of cutting out the best trees for lumber too soon, and alIowii>g the scrub and cull trees to remain, the faster-growing, quality trees should be given an opportunity to mature and I he poorer trees should be cut out and sold for fuel, fence posts, pulpwood or other products as opportunities occur. A few scrub trt-es may be nllowv' to remain in a woodland if they orovide food and shelter for various forms of woodlife, because wild-life is a val- uable woodland crop. During the past several years, more than one farmer hai^ naid his taxes iMid obtain"d extra cash by ^n\v of lumber products, and has discoveiod that a well-maintained woodland is Craigie Lord Roberts Craigie Lord Robert's (2080.5) Im- ported Clydesdale Stallion, will leave his own table Monday, May 17i Pro- ceeding to Sam McLean's for noon, thence to Edward Gilkes, Hopeville, for night.

You'll be surprised at the number of people who really want you to have a telephone. Many of them don't even know you but they're in- terested nevertheless because of what your tele- phone means to their service. Too few tele- phones curtails service and the value of each individunl instrument as well. The more tele- phones in service. c!k- greater the value to each user. From the viewpoints of both service cost and service scope, every farmer is interested in seeing that every other fanner has a telephone.
