Recognizing the condition Liniment. _ * « Farm fires each year reach a staggering total in this province and a writer on the subâ€" ject recently pointed out the absolute necessity of exercising caution when working around stacks or farm buildings. The only "safety first" rule worth observing in this case is not to smoke at all when in orâ€"near the buildings, but to confine all smoking to the dwelling or the fields. + Most barns and outbuildings in Ontario are wooden structures and they contain material that is inflammable in the highest degree, Not only is there hay, straw, sheaf grain and other material that a spark, under favorable conditions, will set ablaze, but in many barns today there are gasoline engines and tractors, and gasoline often too carelessly stored. Gasoline vapor escapes, and when it reaches the right mixture with air becomes an explosive of tremendous power, rightly comâ€" parable with dynamite. A match, a lighted pipe or a cigarette is quite enough to start an exâ€" plosion that almost invariably ends in a disasâ€" trous fire. It is, of course, best to keep all gasoâ€" line and gasoline equipment in a cement or metal building at a distance from the wooden buildings. Even if this is done, and it is altoâ€" gether too rare today, there should be no smoking in the barn. Carrying matches loosely in the pocket, a common habit with smokers, also deserves unâ€" reserved condemnation, according to this writer. A man may pull out his handkerchief and inadvertently cast out a match that may in time cost him his barn. Safety matches, or, still better, patent match lighters, which are now sold very cheaply and can be filled from the gasoline supply, are just as useful and much safer. Throwing away matches without makâ€" ing absolutely certain that they are out; knocking out a pipe carelessly, or throwing away a cigarette butt, are all incipient causes of fires. z* "Thirteen hundred and fiftyâ€"eight inâ€" different men, women and children started fires last year in this Province by the careless use of matches, and throwing lighted cigar and cigarette butts thoughtlessly on inflammable material," says a leaflet from the Ontario Fire Marshal‘s Office. "They would not like to be called incendiarists or to be prosecuted for arson, but nevertheless they are responsible for losses amounting to $721,227." The observance of precautions such as those mentioned above would materially assist in preventing fires. A timely subject of discussion at the meetâ€" ing of the Canadian Bar Association last week was the question as to the kind of sentence to impose to deter those criminally inclined from committing offenses against the law. Inâ€"the report presented by the Committee on Criminal Justice, it was recommended that the criminal code be so amended that instead of a "catâ€"o‘â€"nine tails," a strap "at least two inches wide" be used whenever whipping was awarded for any offence by a Canadian court. In connection with the stealing of autos it was recommended that instead of the present penâ€" alty of not less than one year‘s imprisonment there should be an alternative of two months‘ prison imprisonment, coupled with the penalty that in the second month the convicted person should be "whipped with a strap, not less than five strokes and not more than ten strokes." As far as habitual criminals are concerned the committee urged that they be sentenced for such long terms as would ensure they are not a menace to the country. The committee also favored a system of parole, provided by legisâ€" lation in each province, in criminal cases for effectively dealing with all feebleâ€"minded and mentallyâ€"afflicted, both in court and confineâ€" ment. The sucessful birth of a baby, thmc\__’ Caesarean . operation, seven Thinutes after its nfother had been run over and killed in a street accident in London, Englandâ€"is now the . talk of the British . medical world. £ There has been a disposition of late on the part of the courts to favor a shorter sentence in certain cases and to impose "whipping." Some criminals do not fear a term in prison BABY !8 BORN THROUGH A CAESAREAN OPERATION SsEVEN MINUTES AFTER MOTHER DIES Mrs. Nellic Raston, the cightsenâ€" yearâ€"old â€" wife of an «namployed painter‘s assistant, was expecting to become a mother in about three weeks. Rarly in the evening, while crossing the street, Mrs. Raston was rum over. by a motor truck, the wheols crushing hor head. The body was carired Into the nearby office of Dr. Mintrman two minutes lator, whore ha immediately realized she THE PUNISHMENT OF CRIMINALS | she was in, and recalling one such case in medical history about sixty years ago, Dr. Mintsman at once decided to perform the Caesarean operation in the hope of saving the child. % !ov-‘-h-mhmmmumu baby girl into the world. The inâ€" fant was half suffocated, but after two minutes of artificial respiration and hot and cold water applications she showed signs of, consctousness, the doctor wrapped the child in cotâ€" ton wool and riished hor«to the hospital where she was placed in an incubator and completely recovered. She then welghed five pounds and fourteen cunces. She still Iives and shows every Tndication of continning to &o so. e | _ It is regrettable that there should have _been a considerable waste of money in the !development of Port Nelson which has been reâ€" .jected in favor of Fort Churchill, According to |informution given the House last session by Mr. Dunning, the Nelson terminals had cost '|$6,242.000 up to March 31, 1926; He further | informed the House that the additional cost for completion of these terminals had been esâ€" ;timated at $20,600,000. Should Fort Churchill prove less expensive to develop and equip, as is ‘icontended, there is, therefore, considerable margin for saving to offset the moneys spent !at Nelson. Mr. Dunning likewise told the ‘House that it would take six years to complete ‘the preparations at Port Nelson. The Minister of Railways, Hon. Mr. Dunâ€" ning, recently announced that Fort Churchill is to be the terminus of the Hudson Bay Railâ€" way, the Minister basing his decision on the recommendation of the« British engineer, Fredérick Palmer, whom the department enâ€" gaged to report on the matter. Although a considerable amount had been expended on Port Nelson in previous years, it is generally conceded by those who have investigated the situation, including the Minister of Railways himself, that Fort Churchill possesses superior advantages. It is the intention that the Hudson Bay route be in actual use by 1930 and lthat part of the western grain crop of that year be sent to Europe by this short cut. | HUDSON BAY RAILWAY TERMINAL | | _CHOSEN | The instructions given Mr. Palmer, the English engineer, called for harbor accommodaâ€" tion ‘for six cargo ships in port at one time with working berths for three of the six. The expenditure on the railway itself up to March 31st, 1926, was $15,245,000. Since that time there has been voted $8,130,000 for this purpose to cover the present season and up to the end of March next. The quesfigl as to whether the Hudson Bay route would be practicable has been deâ€" bated over a long period of years. It has now been definitely decided to build the railway t5 Hudson Bay and to make Fort Churchill the terminal. Many westerners have long urged the construction of the railway and the provision of port facilities at the Bay. Now that the imâ€" portant work is to be undertaken it is hoped that it will fulfill to a reasonable extent at least the hope of those who have been urging its conâ€" struction. This development, as has been emâ€" phasized, will give still another direction to Canadian expansion and may ultimately mean much to the west. It is encouraging to note that 9,513 fewer persons left Canada for the United States in the year ended June 30th, 1927, than in the year ended June 30th, 1926. = The wisdom of spectacular flights induced by the offer of prizes, which have recently reâ€" sulted in the disappearance of aviators who have probably lost their lives, is being c_alled into question. It is pointed out that it has cost $300,000 to compete for the $85,000 in prizes offered for the Honolulu airplane flight and seven human beings are missing in the Pacific. Experts say that the spectacular event has contributed nothing to the science of aeroâ€" nautics. A The spread of the benefits of electricity is to be seen in the fact that somewhat over half of the homes i1 Canada are now wired for elecâ€" tricity. There are approximately 1,800,000 houses in Canadg and slightly over 1,100,000 domestic consumers of electric current, most of the unwired homes being on farms. Farm areas, however, are receiving the benefits of electricity in increasing numbers as the system isextended.

Ontario farmers are putting up a strenwous fight against the efforts which are being made to set aside or render ineffective the grading regulations as applied to the marketâ€" ing of hogs. The situation, briefly, would appear to be that the Dominâ€" ion Swin Conference held at Ottawa in April last, passed a resolution to the effect that hog grading at stockâ€" yards, abattoirs, and where neces sary should be compulsory and that the information regarding the grade should be retutned to the producers. The purpose of the resolution was to ensure as far .as posible that the premium on select hogs should find its way into the pockets of the proâ€" ducer. It is contended that the proâ€" posed new regulations drafted by the Dominion ‘Department ‘of Agriâ€" culture do not faithfully intérpret the spirit of the Dominion Swine Conference resolution and That little "or no improvement in the situation can be looked for until the compulâ€" sory feature of the grading regulaâ€" tions is put into force and â€"lived up to. g In a memorandum to farmers‘ clubs throughout the Province, Secretary J. J. Morrison ‘of the U.F.QO. calls for immediate action and urges the clubs to exert every influence towards impressing upon the Government the viewpoint of producers in regard to hog grading. He points out that the regulations were instituted ‘by the Department of Agriculture some years ago for the purpose of improving the type of bacon hog, in order that it might compete on the British market, and that the regulations worked well for the time they were lived up to. More recently, However, other interests have circumvented the regulations, with the result that few farmers have have been selling their hogs on a graded basis, the regulations ‘meanâ€" while becoming very much of a farce.
