A few years ago Canada reâ€" fused to buy when offered the whole of Labrador for $30,000,â€" 000. This summer mineral reâ€" sources worth hundreds of milâ€" lions of dollars are being proved up in that black territory. Many of the residents in this area are veterans from the last war, and while they are tolerant probably beyond what many who were not overseas would be, there is a limit to what even they will stand. It is to be hoped that after their meeting with the Waterloo council, something definite will be decided upon, and that comâ€" pletion of the Area to the point where it is fit to live in will only be a matter of a very short time. Possibly the Waterloo P.U.C. deserve the blame for the lack of lighting in this Area, but not all complaints stem from lack of proper lighting. Main other complaint is of course the roads, or rather the lack of them. At present it would be disastrous for anyone to drive in this area at a speed in excess of 10 mp.h. Even that speed is too fast for the most part, and of course when it rains, you just don‘t drive your car either in or out of the area, for the roads become a sea of mud. Now, however, even before the complaint is formally preâ€" sented to them, council seems to be on the side of the Area residents and also seem to be putting most of the blame for the bad conditions on theâ€" shoulders of the P.U.C.

Now even the soâ€"called small cars can attain the speed of 60 miles per hour almost while you are saying it Some of them have top speeds as high as minety and one hundred miles per hour . . . but they are probably easier to handle at 60 than the old cars were at 30. ‘ The big flaw is of course the human element. It was in existence with the old cars, but because of their lower speed, it didn‘t show up the same as it does today. Then, too, there wasn't! one car on the road back in the thirties to every five that there is today. 1 Even as late as the 1930‘s, speed in excess of 60 miles per hour was something more talked about, than was attained by the cars of those days. Some of the larger cars, would travel at that speed if they were pushed hard enough, but it took an expert driver to hold them on the road. Probably one of the main troubles of this modern age is the speed that we live and play at. Modern cars are built far stronger than they were when the old Model T first was introâ€" duced to a wondering public, but they are also a great deal faster. No one knows just what speed they had reached before their vehicles ieft the road on a sharp curve, but it must have been high when both cars were demolished, one of the drivers killed and the other one seriously injured. Sudden death reached out its grim fingers for the lives of two young men the other evening, when because they couldn‘t settle an argument as to how fast their respective cars would travel, they decided to change cars and drive over a section of road that they both knew had more than one bad curve on it.

The field was an alâ€" falfaâ€"timothy sod and was broâ€" ken up two weeks before seed ing operations were performed and therefore a high yield was not expected.

Treatâ€" ment must be given during the early stages, preferably in the drinking water, as then there is heayy water consumption resultâ€" ing from the high fever. | ’ The first evidence of the disâ€" ease is an abrupt decrease in food consumption, particularly of scratch grain. Mash consumé)tion may decrease, but this evidence is less pronounced. Chickens usually stand around inactive with little or no interest in food. Food consumption on the next day is almost at a standstill. Afâ€" fected birds make no attem‘;)t to move, and can be picked up easily. In the advanced stages the head and feet are cold, the comb and wattles turn blue, and the crop is usually full and hard. Digestion and circulation appear to be almost stopged. and indiâ€" viduals may tremble and shake just before death. _ Blue comb, or pullet disease, resulted in fairly heavy losses in Ontario poultry flocks last fall. Several causes have been sugâ€" gested for this disease, but I feel convinced that a train of cireumâ€" stances leads to this trouble, raâ€" ther than any one specific cause The feeding of new wheat has been suggested by some, but I have seen many cases in flocks where no new grain was being fed. As observed here the dls-} ease occurs chiefly in pullets that { are just coming into high proâ€" duction and are put into winter quarters during extremely hot, humid weather. If new grain poisoning is found in a few members of the flock it is advisable to give the remainder of the birds a dose of Epsom saits in the drinking waâ€" ter at the rate of three quarters gf gs pound to each one hundred birds. If there is any market for used Prevention consists of feeding no new lg\rain for several weeks after it has been threshed, and then gradually chalgfing from old to new grain. any birds have died through picking up grain from the ground where threshing has recently taken place. w New soft wheat is more palatâ€" able but less digestible than hard wheat. If given the opâ€" portunity chickens gorge themâ€" selves with it, and soon become sick and die. Apparently some toxic substance is present in the grain which, if taken in suffiâ€" cient quantitgs, resuits in death. Affected bir usually die beâ€" fore any symptoms of sickness are observed. On postâ€"mortem the crop is found to be packed with soft grain. The entire léngth of the intestine is inâ€" flamed, there is sloughing of the “'I,";f' and the contents are a bioody slimy mass. In the p'n.st.h many . chickens have died as the result of (;eï¬â€˜l- ing on new grain, y wheat, Most Ontario pontrymen are aware of this, and during the past few years comparativeâ€" ly few birds examined in our laâ€" boratory have shown evidence of new grain poisoning.
