PAGE TWO General Motors and other motor companies have policies in effect to improve wages and general working conditions as fast as improved conditions warrant from time to time. The bargaining policy remains as it was before the strike, the corâ€" porations adhering to the prinâ€" ciple of negotiating with recogâ€" nized representatives of any | union or group.

In the United States these strikes have been destructive without bringing benefit to any one group. The shipping strike cost the workers an estimated loss of $400,000,000 in wages and tied up business. The wages lost through the Genera® Moâ€" tors strike has also been huge and estimated at $1,000,000 daily. It also halted operations in numerous industrial plants which made parts for General Motors products. Another seriâ€" ous side of the "sit down" strikes idea is that it encourâ€" ages defiance of law and it has been necessary to bring out troops with machine guns in orâ€" der to maintain order.

The Social Credit government‘s default on election promises containing the alluring proâ€" mises of a $25 monthly diviâ€" dend for every adult, shows that its backers underâ€"estiâ€" mated the difficulties of making such radical changes in the monetary system. Despite the Aberhart experiâ€" ment, the province of Alberta is better off today than at any time in the past eighteen months. This is not to be credited to the government but rather to general improved conâ€" ditions in Canada. In his message to his people the other day, Premier Aberâ€" hart said: "We are more and more convinced that the new economic order can only be introduced by constant and gradual pressure until our people realize its truth and full value." The question of conâ€" tinuing the experiment will probably be determined by the people in an election in the course of the next three months.

RURAL MAIL CARRIERS DESERVE A BETTER DEAL (Dunnville Chronicle) In the House of Commons recently T. A. Thompson, M.P. for Lanark, inâ€" troduced a protest well _worthy of the serious consideration of the memâ€" bers, when he referred to the deplorâ€" ably small remuneration being given by the Post Office Department to mail couriersâ€"those men who cover the rural mail routes, day in and day out, through fair weather and foul, thus providing the farmers with a daily mail service to their doors. ‘These men secure their routes tkrough the medium of public tender which has many points in its favor. But even public tender can often work out to ‘be a hardship. Many men during recent years have found the greatest difficulty in earning a livelihood, of finding a job which brought in ready cash. As a result. when tenders were called for coverâ€" ing a rural mail route there were alâ€" ways ‘plenty of applicants who were quite ready to take on the job at less than the work was being performed for. The presnt appointee either had to cut the price of his previous tenâ€" der or see the job ‘turned over to another who felt he could work for less. This state of affairs bas conâ€" tinued until in many instances the work was being performed for a pitâ€" tanceâ€"the one redeeming feature ‘being that the work was being paid for in cash and the pay was sure. Happily, in this land the people are almost unanimous in paying tribute to the King. It was pointed out by Mr. Thoimpâ€" son that in cities and the larger towns where there was house to delivery of mail, the tender system of securing appointment was not in vogue. In these cases the men emâ€" ployed were engaged through the Civil Service Commission at a stated salary, thus recognizing that a laâ€" borer was worthy of his hire, and as long as he performed his work faitl&ully and honestly his position was not thrown open to public comâ€" petition every so often. ‘There is much to recommend this latter methâ€" od and the Post Office Department "would do well to give serious considâ€" eration to the suggestion. WHEN TO SBNG ‘THE KING‘® Press Comments drainage of the land, the quantity of humus in the soil that will hold mois ture, the suitability of the fertilizer for the crop on which it is to be used and the placement of the fertilizer when it is applied. â€" Experiments disclose that the proâ€" per placement of fertilizer is about as important as the plant‘ food conâ€" tent of the fertilizer itself and that when broadcast much waste of plant food is bound to occur. Realization of this fact is becoming more general every day and farmers are advised to study the fertilizer placement question with a view to obtaining better results. Information regardâ€" ing this may be obtained from Domâ€" inion Experimental Farms and the Agricultural Colleges. Even though the laying flock was apparently healthy last year, the pulâ€" lets are apt to suffer severe losses if the laying house is not kept thorâ€" oughly _ cleaned â€" and â€" disinfected. Many times some of the hens are carriers of highly infectious disease germs which may infect the pullets, yet little affect the old laying stock. For this reason, pullets should alâ€" ways be housed in separate quarters. It should ‘be remembered that even a good disinfectant cannot penetrate large cakes of filth and kill the hidâ€" ing disease germs. Complete removal first of all dirt and filth is necessary. It is well to move the roosts, nests, and other equipment out in the sun for a few days after they are cloaned and disinfected. ‘To prepare the house for the pulâ€" lets the litter and droppings should be removed and all extraneous matâ€" ter scraped loose from the floor, walls, dropping boards, roosts, feedâ€" ers, waterers, and other movable equipment. These parts of the house should then be well soaked and scrubbed with a good disinfectantâ€" using lye water solution at the rate of one pound of household lye to 12 or 15 gallons of cold water. If tuberâ€" culosis has been in the flock in the past, it is well to spray the house with a cresol dip. The following rolled grain laying mash is taken from Farm (Poultry bulletin ‘Number 379, issued by the Ontario Department of Agriculture, 0.C.A., Guelph. Crushed or rolled grain is preâ€" ferred by chickens to finely ground grains, particularly such grains as wheat, oats and barley. These grains when ground and wet are of a sticky nature, and this may be the reason for the hens‘ preference for crushed grains. The refuse hulls should ‘be removed daily. Good results in egg production and hatching power of eggs were secured in 1934 and 1935 from a ration conâ€" sisting of equal parts of crushed oats. crushed wheat, crushed barley. To each one hundred pounds of the above grains was added one quart of gpod grade of cod liver oi from November 1st to April. It is neces sary to feed some clover leaves or tay .and to supply animal protein such as milk powder, beef meal or fish meal, or all three, in separate hoppers or containers. ‘These feeds do not mix well with crushed grains. Birds to date have shown no disposiâ€" tion to eat an excess of these maâ€" terials if supplied constantly. ‘Ykimâ€"milk or buttermilk fed at the rate of twentyâ€"five pounds daily to each hundred hens. provides enough animal protein without supplying any | cther. such as fish meal or meak meal ‘ The best hatches were secured from the eggs laid by hens receiving milk only as the anlm@l p!'oteln, iSupply a hopper each of grit, oys ter shell and bone meal. Crushed Grain Laying Mash Carriers of Disease If care is given as to feeding a reaâ€" sonable amount of crushed grain daily, there will be little wastage. Where the birds are forced to eat all the hulls there is at times trouâ€" ble with their gizzards becoming imâ€" pacted sufficiently to cause death. At the Dominion Experimental 6taâ€" tion at Scott, Sask., several tosts have been made comparing the use of cod liver oil and pilchard oil for the purpose of preventnig the cripâ€" pling of pigs in winter. Tt has been observed that the trouble usually apâ€" peared among pigs which had been exposed to very little sunshine. Some of the early tests were conducted with fall pigs which were farrowed in August and allowed to run outside until the cold weather came, with the result that no crippling occurred and practically no difference in gains reâ€" sulted from the different treatments with or without oil. The following year. fall pigs were confined to buildâ€" ings from birth where no direct sunâ€" shine was received. Soon after waenâ€" ing, these pigs were divided as evenâ€" ly as possible by placing pigs from several litters in each pen and weighâ€" ing each pig individually. The same grain ration. was given to each lot. ‘Cod liver oil was added to the chop for one lot at the rate of one ounce per pig daily and the second lot reâ€" ceived no oil. A third lot was given jhe same ration of chop with one ounce of pilchard oil per pig daily. The lot getting no oil showed markâ€" ed signs of crippling early in Decemâ€" ber and one pig from this lot died on the 35th day of the test, and 11 days later, another was lost from the same Ict. The trial was closed on the 89th day when the six remaining pigs were all lame and two required asâ€" sistance to reach the trough. In the two lots getting oil, there was no gain per pig was 108 pounds in the ’cod liver oil lot, 101 in the pilchard oil lot and 79 pounds each for the remaining pigs in the lot which re ‘celved no oil. Feed scratch grain, as usual, of the kinds of grain you have. You could feed whole wheat as scratch grain, and crushed oats and barley as a ‘Pigs may be fed successfully durâ€" ing the winter if conditions and feed are satisfactory. One of the most common difficulties confronting the winter feeder is crippling. The cost of living is once more a problem to many who have just about decided to get along without it and buy a car. Both oils leave an undesirable fishy taste in the pork unless disconâ€" tinued about six weeks before marâ€" keting or killing for pork. This may be done even in midâ€"winter without danger of crippling if the oil has been fed for some time previously. ‘The crippled pigs which had not received any oil were given oil in the chop at the rate of one ounce per pig daily. after the test was comâ€" pleted. No further deaths occutred and all pigs recovered from their lameness in a short time and were eventually marketed, although some joints were still crooked. ‘These oils, practially equal in vaâ€" lue, can ‘be purchased for about $1.00 per gallon the pilchard oil is usually a little cheaper.
