â€"Editorial Comment East of Eden is an American saga, running in time from the Civil War, to the First World War, in place from a Connecticut farm to a California valley. Esâ€" sentially, it is the story of one family, the Trasksâ€"a father and his twin sons and their errant mother. What happens to the Trasks, against the background of what was happening to others, gives the book its superb storyâ€" telling drive and also its human significance. e Koestler, Arthur: ARROW IN THE BLUE," an Autobiograâ€" phy, N.Y., Macmillan, 1952. Mass terror, prisons and conâ€" centration camps, political corâ€" ruption, the criminal abuse of powerâ€"Arthur Koestler‘s writing furnishes a devastating record of the grimmer aspects of our time. Yet in writing of his own experiâ€" ences, the author of "Darkness at Noon" shows he can be unexpectâ€" edly gay, detached, and selfâ€"criâ€" tical, without losing his fundaâ€" mental seriousness of purpose. Zaidenberg, Arthur: "ANYONE CAN SCULPT, N.Y., Harper, Bros., 1952. This book is designed to teach the rudents of making simple sculptured figures and animals. Under Mr. Zaidenberg‘s able guidance, and using the conveniâ€" ent materials now available, amaâ€" teurs with no previous experience good and evil. In recognizing his burden, the characters take on a stature that makes them spokesâ€" man for the struggling human race. Included in the collection is the tale of Ernest Hemingway‘s oneâ€" man liberation of Paris and of Madame Chiang‘s highâ€"handed treatment of the working press back in the days when she made her home in Chungking. There is an intimate portrait of Hitler when he was still an aspiring German politician holding his staff meetings in an obscure Baâ€" varian tearoom, and an onâ€"theâ€" spot report of Ernie Pyle‘s death as he covered the war in the Paâ€" cific. There is an amusing acâ€" count of Clement Atlee‘s nearly missing a transatlantic broadcast. Included, too, is one of George Bernard Shaw‘s last interviews and a conversation with Jan Maâ€" saryk only weeks before his death. EDEN", N.Y., Viking, 1952. One of the remarkable qualities of John Steinbeck as an author is that he practically never goes over the same ground twice. A mature writer, established in the first rank of creative artists of his century, he still finds new maâ€" terial and he still tries new techâ€" niques to tell his stories. iez Each is an individual, rounded with life; the book is an asserâ€" tion of the individual human soul, with its Godâ€"given power for Hartwell, Dickson and Rooney, The reference book, Quick Canadian Facts, states that $200,000,â€" 000 will be spent developing Labrador iron deposits before any ore is taken out. The New York magazine, Steelways, says that the steel company at Sault Ste. Marie is at present spending $50,000,000 on expansion, after spending $38 million during the 1940â€"1950 period. And al} this is only part of the great private investment that is being poured into the Canadian steel industry. As supplied by the Waterloo Public Library By MARGARET McCUIâ€"LOUGH. Librarian Steinbeck, John: "EAST OF in modeling or carvir There have been a few suggestions lately that government (proâ€" vincial and/or federal) should step in to develop iron ore deposits and manufature steel. It‘s a suggestions that comes easily, until consideration is given to just how much of the public‘s money would have to be gambled with. Would the Canadian people want to provide such vast sums of additional tax money to finance a nationalized steel industry? Would the Canadian people believe that a government board could operate the industry as efficiently as private management, or as carefully spend the hundreds of millions needed for upkeep and expansion? Would the anadian people prefer to have political rather than econoâ€" mic factors decide where steel mills should be built or iron ore mined? The idea that the Canadian people would want to put govâ€" ernment, any government, into the steel business is far fetohed.

Unfortunâ€" ately, they are unable to cope with some artificial conditions in which they are wintered in cold climates. â€" Gorsline, Douglas: "WHAT PEOâ€" PLE WORE", a visual history of dress from ancient times to the twentiethâ€"century America, N.Y., Viking, 1952. Never before has there been a costume book anything like this one, either in form of presentaâ€" tion or in scope. Here in one hanâ€" dy volume is a comprehensive survey of the history of dress in the Western Worldâ€"a unique viâ€" sual encyclopedia that includes a detailed section of Americana. This is a book for the lay reader or the professionalâ€"for anyone interested in or seeking data on fashions through the ages. Comâ€" prising nearly eighteen hundreg line drawings, the book covers Western fashions from 2750 B.C. Suitable ventilation should also be provided. If botton entrances are used quilts of warm material or inner covers with ventilating opening should be put on top of the frames and a loose insulating material on tor of that. There should also be a well ventilated material on top of that. There should also be a well ventilated airâ€"space between the insulation and the cover of the wintering case. Colonies being wintered in more than one storey should be given a small (one beeâ€"way) top entrance. Normally, bees change the air in the hive by fanning with their wings but in low temperatures tgey become too inactive to do that. When bees are wintered in orâ€" dinary hives with entrances close to the ground and covered with snow, there is only a little moveâ€" ment of air inside. Excess moisâ€" ture accumulates and creates a condition injurious to the bges.' Tests made at the Kapuskasing Station, indicate that much of the loss caused by dampness and milâ€" dew can be prevented. Bees can be assisted by feeding early enough to allow them to thoâ€" roughly ripen and cap the stores before the temperature drops too low. The bees may take syrup from the feeder paid and store it in the combs at temperatures too. low for them to ripen and cap it. Any such stores remaining unâ€" capped during the winter are likely to be diluted with moisture from the atmosphere within the hive and consequently become unfit as a winter feed. _ The presence of mould in the spring indicates that the method of preparing hives for the winter should 6e modified. in modeling or carving can proâ€" duce interesting results. When combs of honey are used for winter stores, sufficient syrup should be fed to enable the bees to complete any partly filled areas. _ to 1925 A.D.

Farmers who trap on their own landâ€"are not required to buy a trapper‘s license, but acâ€" cording to regulations passed this year, they must have their traps marked. They are also required to forward a return of their take to the local Conservation Officer each year. Forms for this purpose may be obtained from the Conâ€" servation Officer.

All Officers have been provided with marking sets and will allot a number to each trapper. _ TOP $600 â€" AVERAGE $346 AT SPECIAL HOLSTEIN SALE The annual Fal} Special Holâ€" stein Sale held Oct. 22nd at Sumâ€" mit View â€" Farm, Bridgeport, brought a total of $21,825 on the sale of 63 head for a general averâ€" age of $346.

After fall plowing and seeding is done and up to the time that 6"â€" 8" of snow has fallen, is, for the farmer, the ideal time in which to cut logs from his woodlot. In many woodlots this should be considered an essential part of the farm management program. The farmer who owns a good woodlot must realize the necesâ€" sity for carrying out periodic harvesting operations. If this work is not attended to, large trees will become over mature and will start to show rot. It is only common sense on the part of the farmer to see that this does not happen by cutting the trees before it is too late. However, â€" many _ landowners have the mistaken idea that it is good gonservation to never cut a tree unless it is dead or dying.

About 3.5 million trees went to our home market. When our American neighbors gather about the Christmas tree, one in four families sits by a tree that grew in Canada. Last year Canada supplied 25 per cent of all Christmas trees used in the United States.
