While cheese prices | ]MT: FIVE YEARS AGgo March 20, 1930 $2,388,457 was spent by the comâ€" bined municipal governments of Waâ€" terloo County in 1928. a recent reâ€" port reveals. â€" As in other places, there has been an agiâ€" tation on the part of some to have the salary or wage of the city or town civic employee inâ€" creased. To force the taxpayers, who have been struggling to retain their homes, to grant inâ€" creased rates of pay to civic employees is unâ€" wise. Whether salary or wage cuts in private employment are a cause of or the result of the depression is a debatable question. But there can be no doubt that high taxes help to create and are helping to prolong the economic breakâ€" down. In an editorial commenting on the new unâ€" employment â€" insurance aet, the Woodstock Sentinelâ€"Review, for many years a strong Liberal newspaper, states: Hon. Arthur Roebuck, Attorneyâ€"General of Ontario, says the Dominion Government‘s new unemployment insurance bill strikes "a direct blow at organized labor." Nr. Roebuck has rushed in, as usual, without consideration of what he is saying. According to the Canadian Press summary of the bill, it specifically proâ€" tects the worker "from being deprived of benefit because he refuses to accept a job at wages beâ€" low what he ordinarily received or because of labor affiliations." Organized labor is further recognized in the following provisions: "A claimant will not be required to accept work made available because of a trade dispute, nor an offer of employment at less than the rate of wages he habitually received from such work. Nor will he be disqualified if he refuses work that wou!d prevent his becoming a member or continuing as a member of any union of workers." , â€" Many people in Canada could never underâ€" stand the economics of the Roosevelt New Deal whereby it is proposed to improve business conâ€" ditions in the United States by destroying hogs, plowing up cotton and subsidizing farmers not to grow wheat. In the opinion of the editor of the Chicago Tribune, this policy is now proving a blighting one. Hundreds of men have been laid off in the stockyards at Chicago as there are fewer jobs RELIEF MEDICAL DESTROY FARM PRODUCTS â€" HELP PROSPERITY Chronicle Fyle Gleanings WORKER PROTECTED RATE APPLIED The Wilmot Towneship Agriculâ€" tural Society in Waterloo County is to be congratulated on launching a new program. A series of educationâ€" ai meetings has been commenced. At the first of these, the main subjects for consideration were "Control of the Wanble Fiy" and ‘"Reforestation". Two other meetinga of a similar naâ€" ture, but on other subjects will be held this spring. The eradication of couch graes, otherwise known as quack, twitch or scutch grass, is one of the hardest problems with which the farmer has to deal. Few people realize the enormous quantity of couch grass roots which exist in infested soll. Teets conducted by the Central Exâ€" perimental Farm at Ottawa show weights of roots ranging from 1,531 to 6997 pounds to the acreâ€"as much a« a heavy crop of hay. No wonder it is hard to clean out when it spreads by roots as well as seed. Thoroughly cleaning out the roots is the one effective way of getting rid of couch. Trapne«ting being to the laying tlock what the scale and Babcock test are to the dairy herd, it is the only means of accurately determinâ€" ing the production of the individual hen. At the Cap Rouge Experimenâ€" tal Station, the hens are selected by the trapnesting method and the poor layere are marketed after their first year‘s laying. Hatching egge are se lected from High producers, and should weigh at least 24 ouncesper dozen. Unthrifty chicks, and cockerâ€" ele expect those from the best hens are marketed during the summer. This organization plans to serve all farmers in the Society area, with a general agricultural program in stead of being eatisfied to function in‘ the holding of a fair only. On March $th the South Ontario Agricultura) @ociety gave a compiiâ€" mentary dinner to members who had cat straw $5.75 to $740 Trapnest is Bect Test Agricultural Features Cleaning Out Couch on both the overseas and Canadian markets have gone lower the past season, butter prices in Canada have improved. As a result the agriâ€" culturist has turned the milk output to the manufacture of butter. Official records show that the dairying industry in Canada, during 1934, based on butter fat produced, was greater than any other year in history. It is forecast that when the federal minisâ€" ter of finance, Hon. E. N. Rhodes, brings his 1935 budget before the House of Commons, he will be able to announce a surplus on ordinary account. This means that, so far as the ordinary expenditures are concerned, there will be a balanced budget, almost entirely because of the increased revenues which the national treasury has enjoyed in the last year. Mrs. Harrison, of New York, one of the best dressed women in the United States, was peeved the other day when she was reported as spending $50,000 a year on dresses and the upâ€" keep of her wardrobe. She declared it was absurd, perfectly silly. "Why, with all the entertaining and travelling I do, I don‘t spend more than $20,000 on clothes," she declared. Not since war times have the capitals of the world spent such an anxious weekâ€"end as that precipitated by Germany‘s frank scrapping of the Treaty of Versailles in creating a 500,000 conscript army. Apropos the importance of "hoss racing" to Canadian fall fairs, it may interest rural people to know that British agricultural fairs have neither horse races nor midway. There is nothing whatever in the way of entertainment ; just the livestock, grains, etc. The show is everything. It is all a matter of taste, and Canadians might think these shows dull. There can‘t be any reasonable objection to the Government taking over the quintuplets. They are essentially a monopoly. A MERE NOTHING FOR CLOTHES * EDITORIAL NOTES FAIRS IN ENGLAND ...Southâ€"Western Ontario: A fair supâ€" ply of timothy and timothy mixtures and alfaifa is stlll available in the Owen Sound district and there has been some movement of alfalfa reâ€" cently for meal manufacturing pyrâ€" poses. There is a shortage of hay in a number of counties in this part of Ontario but this is being offeet largeâ€" ly by other roughage such as corn stocks and straw aupplemented perâ€" haps with molaeses, so as to winter the atock without hay. There was a fair corn crop las year in most counâ€" ties, which produced a fair quantity of good allage and besides many farâ€" mere have plenty of grain, all of which leasens the need for hay. It is believed that most counties will have eufficient fodder to carry their stock until at least April ist, at which time there should be a fair demand for hay from outaide eources. (Prices being paid growers, per ton, at principal market centers leas freight costs are: for timothy No. 1, $16 to $17.50; No. 2, $14 to $16; No. 3, $12 to $14; wheat straw $7 to $8; Hay Market Report Eastern and Northern Ontario: A ‘There is etill plenty of hay available and farmers who have held their hay since last autumn for firmer prices are now wishing to sell so that deal ers are able to discriminate as to price and quality, About 400 tons of hay have been graded in eastern Onâ€" tario during the past month for shipâ€" ment to the Maritime provinces.
