I\ofi::fi Taine, who lives in a small vi in Dorset with his wife and two young sons, is Hewever, the fortunate point about this situation is that it is up to the public to decide whether vast newspaper empires shall continue to build up their nefarious monopolies. The bedrock of the Four Freedoms is freedom of the press, The independent press has shown, by its record, courage to strive for progress and justice. If the independent press is crushed, Canada will have lost its greatest protection against tyranny. The erection of huge newspaper empires, and consequently monopolization of disemination of public information, has in some cases already destroyed independent newspapers. Public support of the independent press is needed if the public is to be spared biased news reporting and politically slanted jourâ€" Despite the frequent pronouncements on the vital necessity of freedom of the press, the press in Canada has seldom been in more dire peril than at the present time. Purpose of the Week is to focus public attention on the importâ€" ance of freedom of the press. (London Free Press) Thanks to centinuing fine weather fall fairs in Southern Ontario have done well this year. From every district come reports of record exhibits and attendance. Especially, the small rural fair which has featured its local background and enhanced its community roots has been repaid by large crowds. The local fall fair provides the scene in which the friendly rivalry of district farmers can be demonstratâ€" ed through exhibits, and when the weather is fine an enjoyable gathering of the clans. THREAT TO FREEDOM (The Edmonton Sun) National Newspaper Week was observed throughout the land last week of Oct. 1 to 6. However, that threat which is today so obvious, has come from within the ranks of the press as much as from without. Nowadays nearly everyone has more leisure time than ever beforeâ€"with the possible exception of newspapermen. Week!y workâ€" ing hours are shorter, holidays are more numerous and modern gadgets make work around the home easier. But leisure time and relaxation are not necessarily the same. The Scout movement has been most active in Waterloo during the past years, but a larger membership is the ultimate objective. Your contribution and financial support on "Apple Days" will do much to further the splendid work of the Scouts and will give encouragement to the leader who are giving their time and efforts gratis. We believe that keeping up with the times, being conversant with the problems that confront our modern civilizationâ€"the threat of communism, industrial disputes, hot and cold wars, spiralling prices and all the other factors that make this a hectic ageâ€"is a sign of healthy citizenship of our own land and of the world. But when we find our nerves rubbed raw and our fear of the shape of things to come getting the better of us, the best thing we can do is stretch out and "just relax." Most of us work just about as hard filling up our leisure time with "useful" pursuits or with frantic recreation as we do on the job. For a lot of us the ability to take life easy is a lost art. We have forgotten how to relax. * This Saturday will be "Apple Day" in Waterloo and Kitchener. Scouting plays an important role in the Twin Cities, and it is the one day of the year whereby local citizens can give their wholeheartâ€" ed support. Buy an apple and show that you are keenly interested in the welfare of the youth of this community. Members of the Scout troop will call at your home, your office, or place of businessâ€" given them a substantial donation for "an apple". Laziness, in moderation of course, is a worthwhile art that many of us need to regain so that we may renew the vigor of our minds and bodies to meet the pressure of these energetic times in which we live.

More harm is done to the farm wood lot by pasâ€" turing than any other factor. _ . From what we‘ve seen during the past several years, the ?rac- tice of pasturing young cattle in wood lots seems to be growing in many quarters. . . Whether or not these farmers have any interest in the ultimate yield potential of the wood lots, they go ahead with the wastage any way. The{ seem to feel that the cattle will fatten up enough under these circumstances without â€" any _ assistance. And they‘re always surprised when the animals haven‘t grown the way they should. Even though young cattle will browse in wooX lots, this tyfoe of fodder isn‘t their naâ€" tural food. As a result it takes forty acres of bush land to equal the food value in one acre of good pastureland. . . But the more seriâ€" ous result of woodland browsing is that it drains the trees of nourâ€" ishment with the disappearance of small, earthâ€"retaining trees. _ This pasturing of cattle in wood lots is so common, you know, that in many sections it‘s doing terrible damage. And little or no thought is given to the consequences. In many cases this is ignorance, and many it‘s indifference. This latâ€" ter is the real danger. _ {os The Conservation Association has issued a bulletin over the sigâ€" nature of Secretary W. E. Steele, outlining the steps that will be taken to combat this menace. This is a highly important piece of conâ€" servation information, and everyâ€" one to whom it is sent should deâ€" rive some inspiration. It stresses the importance of wood lots and and the danger of letting them disappear through misuse. _ We suppose that "grass roots conservation‘" is the best way to describe the work that is being done to combat the pasturing of wood lots. A tremendous amount of thought is now being applied to this problem by the different zones of the Ontario Conservation Association. And it‘s a very comâ€" mon problem, too. | _ â€" @ Mrs. H. R.
