_â€"â€"_â€"_â€" _Ths Waraeruoo CmronicLsr ‘PAGE TWO After the war, when the monarchy disapâ€" peared and Austria became a Republic, the new Viceâ€"Chancellor set out in search of adventure. As a member of an irregular band, he tried to free Silesia from the Poles. In 1923 he conâ€" sorted with Hitler in Munich and is said to have The new Viceâ€"Chancellor of Austria, Prince Ernst Ruediger von Starhemberg, is a man of 35, a Fascist, a monarchist and an aristocrat with an intense reverence for the traditions which were the pride of one of the proudest Austrian families. Though little known to the world, he has played a large part in recent happenings in his troubled country. The "Hunger March" was put on as a publicity stunt. The marchers will not be interâ€" fered with unless they destroy property or reâ€" sort to physical violence. Thus far they have conducted themselves in an orderly manner. The leaders in speeches at Queen‘s Park condemned "the system", "capitalism", "the capitalistic press", and denounced as "demaâ€" gogues" Premier Hepburn and members of his Cabinet. b The people of Ontario can see no good reason why there should be a Hunger March as there is no hunger in Ontario. The organâ€" izers, admittedly Communists, were responsible for labor troubles at Stratford, Kitchener and other places and would overthrow the present form of government if they could. Their deâ€" mands on the Government could not be met without placing further financial burdens upon the people. |_AUSTRIA‘S NEW VICEâ€"CHANCELLOR This week, hunger marchers, about two thousand strong, reached Toronto after several days‘ march to make demands on Premier Hepâ€" burn and his Government. The people of Canâ€" ada have been most sympathetic with the unâ€" employed victims of the world‘s depression which is now lifting. They have been given food and clothing and no person allowed to suffer. The Federal Government has decided to hold byâ€"elections to fill the vacancies in several constituencies on September 24th. Three of the vacancies were caused by deaths, Hon. E. B. Ryckman, in Toronto East; Dr. William Spankie, in Frontenacâ€"Addington; and Lieut.â€" Col. T. H. Lennox, in North York. They were all Conservatives. The vacancy in Elgin West was caused by the resignation of Mitchell Hepâ€" burn to lead the Ontario Liberal party to victory. The vacancy in Kenoraâ€"Rainy River‘ was caused by the resignation of Hon. Peter Heenan to join the new Provincial Government.| ~ _ Whether the causes of fires be spontaneous combustion, smoking, careless use of matches, defective lighting equipment, careless use of modern equipments in hay making and curing, or careless handling of inflammable materials, the farmer and thresher must accept the reâ€" sponsibility for controlling these fire hazards. At the meeting of the Underwriters‘ Associaâ€" tion held at Toronto this year, Prof, W. C. Blackwood, B.A., B.Sc., of the:Ontario Agriculâ€" tural College at Guelph, touched on the points referred ‘to by Mr. Woods. He said that barn fires can be fully eliminated as far as losses by spontaneous combustion or at threshing is con-‘ cerned, if farmers would insist on threshing machines being equipped with a suction sprayâ€" attachment and grounding of metal parts. Hay must also be salted when storing it in their barns. Recently a Grimsby farmer suffered a $10,000 loss when his large barn was burned following an explosion believed to have been caused by gasses forming and igniting straw and accumulated dust in the threshâ€" ing machine. Mr. J. H. Woods, manager of the North Waterloo Farmers‘ Mutual Fire Insurance Company, and a former successful Woolwich Township farmer, inspected the loss at Grimsby for his Company. He reports that the fire was directly caused by dust and static which ignited when it passed through the thresher. Farmers, he said, had been warned over a period of years and urged not to allow threshing machines to operate on their farms unless equipped with a proper sprayer at the base of the blower and grounding of the metal parts of the machine. If these precautions are taken, declared Mr. Woods, farmers need not fear a fire loss from this source. A'fi”“ummnfio ‘Town of Waterloo and Waterloo County, issued at Waterioo, Ont., every Thureday by D. Bean & Soms, Ltd., owners and publishers, The Chronicie is a member of "Class A" Weekly Group of the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association, and the Ontarioâ€"Quebec Newsâ€" This is the season of the year when many barn fires occur and farmers naturally are very much concerned regarding possible losses to property which usually come during threshing operations. SUBSORIPTION RATES: Anywhere in Canada, $2.00 a year; in the United States, $2.50 a year, payable in advance. _ ADVERTISING RATES: On application. Advertising copy must reach the office not later than Monday noon to insure insertion. HUNGER MARCHERS‘ DEMON:â€" STRATION FARMERS CAN PREVENT FIRES BYâ€"ELECTIONS ; The Hepburn Government has renewed '$15,0()0,0()() of shortâ€"term treasury notes at 3.58 per cent. The Henry Government paid 4 lper cent. in March. The saving is $68,000 per ~year. The public generally will approve the Attorneyâ€"General‘s action in breaking the conâ€" tract of the Chicago Century of Progress with the Corbeil father of the quintuplets,. The five children, now two months old, need every nursâ€" ing and medical care and cannot be exhibited without impairing their health. * ‘ The action of the Hepburn Government in refusing to place the usual exhibit in the Ontario Building at the Canadian National Exhibition and disappointing thousands of people is most regrettable. Is the province to be without the usual attractive displays while thousands of people view the fine displays of Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, India and Ceylon. The saving to be effected by the government seems small as compared to the benefit to be derived by the advertising and promotion of sale of the products of Ontario. _ Whether you like Hepburn or not, he must be given credit for carrying out promises made before the election. One more month and the summer wiil be pretty well gone. Time to have the coal bin repaired and filled. So far as thoroughbreds are concerned, the depression seems to be over, if indeed it ever affected them. The Derby winner, Windsor Lad, has been sold for $250,000, the largest price ever paid for a horse. The new owner must expect to make his profit, if profit is to be made, from stud fees, because it is unlikely that the horse could ‘ever win, in the engagements for which he remains eligible, a fifth of the purâ€" chase price. No interference with the teachers‘ superâ€" annuation fund is contemplated by the Ontario Government, it is learned. A rumor widely circulated during the election campaign was to the effect that the Liberal economy program included the fund, but no such move is proposed. Assessors in many rural municipalities are getting after the small stands or booths along the highways and causing them to contribute their share of business tax, the same as the regular stores and other business places. Still, it‘s better to live in Ontario than Germany. In Germany, the alternatives are to commit suicide or be shot. In Ontario, to resign or be fired. The amended liquor regulations forbid slot machines in standard hotels with beer licenses. If slot machines are not fit company for beer, are they fit company for boys? Cut them all out, and save the kids‘ pennies. Happy is he who can just keep his place on the sidelines and watch the rest of the world get excited over nothing. If all the ‘getting excited" could be limited strictly to causes that amount to something, probably the average length of life of humans would be extended nearly to the century mark. Most of the worrying that burns out human mental bearings is over possible evils that never come to pass and imagined wrongs that if left alone soon right themselves. + Of course the reporter asked Mr. Morin the secret of his long life. He didn‘t know. He had lived pretty much as other people live and had made no effort to keep in any straight and narrow path that seemed to lead to longevity. But in one of his chance remarks was a stateâ€" ment worth considering. He said: "I just watch the rest of the world get excited over nothing.". taken part in "the inglorious "beer garden putsech." Following Hitler‘s failure, the Prince nturnedtoAqu.andmtodfllllwl-' vate army on his estates, hoping to restore the monarchy. Mussolini, ‘Italy‘s idol, is said to have supplied munitions and equipment and had 100,000 men at his command. The government recognizing his influence, made him Minister of , the Interior. He later resigned and again took control of his army. Shortly after Chancellor z Dollfuss, assassinated last week, assumed the , dictatorship, the Prince accepted the invitation f to rejoin the government. t The Prince demanded that the Social Demoâ€" crats be crushed and in carrying out his wishes a civil war occurred which ended in Dollfuss‘ death. The new Viceâ€"Chancellor, Prince vyon Starhemberg, is a sonâ€"inâ€"law of the King of Italy. It is interesting to recall that an Austrian visitor to Canada last winter said that if the monarchy should be restored it might not be in the person of a Hapsburg, but in that of the Prince who is now Viceâ€"Chancellor. The German press predicted yesterday that the new Austrian cabinet headed by Dr. Kurt Schuschâ€" nigg would not last. Thomas Morin, a citizen of Detroit, celeâ€" brated his 100th birthday the other day. He spent the greater part bf the century in good hard work on Michigan farms beginning with the rigors and privations of pioneer days. wWHY HE LIVED TO BE 100 YEARS EDITORIAL NOTES fTHE WATBRLOGO CHRoONICL®E Moved by John Steckle seconded by J.

TAX RATE IS 15 MILLS For County and A Muchâ€"Banned Weed There is proba‘bly no weed in the universe so much legislated against as Clover Dodder, which was introâ€" duced into Canada from Europe. It is a serious pest. Alfalfa dodder has given trouble in Southwestern Onâ€" tario and in the Prairie Provinces where it is known to have continued in alfalfa for three years. Badly inâ€" fested fields should be plowed under before aeed forms. ‘ Pasture for Pigs Pasture for pigs may undoubtedly be made good use of on the averâ€" age farm. This method of feeding, however, has disadvantages, partiâ€" cularly with the active bacon hog, owing to the opportunity for excesâ€" sive exercise from the standpoint of fast finishing and the liability of little pigs to etunting through sunâ€" burn and. the combined effects of sunburn and dew. With plenty of ékim milk or buttermilk, both the experimental evidence and that of practical feeders would indicate that growing bacon hogs may be fed for market more economically indoors or in well shaded pene, supplied with racks for green feed, preferably in the form of alfaifa or clover. Racks are essentlal to the prevention of waste, Fresh Water important When all classes of live stock do wot have access to fresh water, they suffer considerably during the hot weather. ‘The owner in turn suffers, is the animals, deprived of the reâ€" quired amount of water, do not put on flesh or produce milk as they otherwise might. A good water supâ€" ply is a neceseity on every live stock farm, and provision should be made to make it available to the animals. Aithough _ there _ are _ several methods of preparing meal mixtures for feeding pige, the following rules are recommended as safe practices in producing hoge of the desired type: (1) Grind all grain. Fine grindâ€" ing is recommended especially for young pigs. (2) Soak meal mixture between feeds; do not use too much water but feed as a fairly thick slop. (3) Hand feeding is the best method for securing hoge of a desirable type. (4) If necessary, a selfâ€"feeder may be used after pigs have reached the growing stage of development. (5) Keep pails, troughs and other feedâ€" ing equipment clean. Mouldy or deâ€" caying matter will cause feeding troubles, and (6) Supply clean drinkâ€" Ing water, It is & simple matter to control bacâ€" terial growth in milk. At 40 degrees F. there is practically no change in the number of bateria at the end of 24 houre; at 50 degrees the number increases four fold and at 60 degrees nearly a hundred times as many as at the start. Milk should be cooled as promptly as possible. Freshly drawn milk contains a substance known as lactenin which is able to restrain bacteria for a certain period. If the cooling is delayed the effect soon pasées off; by prompt cooling the lactenic effect may be extended even to 24 hours or longer. Pullets will develop with greater uniformity if separated from the cockerels when they are eight to 12 weeks of age. The males are domiâ€" neering and tend to claim the feed hopper epace that has been allotted to the females. Furthermore it is good economy to sell the males beâ€" fore they become staggy.
