Hemi Talk on New Car The annuai meeting of Tyrone Women's Institute was of special interest not oniy because of the election of officers but also bç- cause of the excellent address given by MIrs. Russell Wright on "New Canadian Industries." This extremeiy interesting, as well as instructive subi ect, ably given in the speaker's usual pleasing manner, brought forth loud applause and many fine com- ments. Mrs. Wright deait with but a few of Canada's new indust- ries, taking the foilowing as of primary interest: penicillin, deh- ydration of eggs, fruits and vege- tables, rubber from the Russian dandelion, plastics and some of the refugee industries. Penicillin is made from whey at St. Laurient, Quebec, and also in Toronto. Some by-products are poultry and live stock feeds. Something of the processing re- quired to make this "magic" drug, its preparation for generai use and some of its uses were toid briefiy. This drug has been on sale in drug stores since March lst, but the warning is given to use wisely and preferably only under the physician's supervision, as an immunity to the drug can be buiit up. It wouid then prove useless in a reai case of need. There are several dehydrating plants in Canada for the drying of eggs, which have proved so help- fui to British housewives, and aiso of vegetables' and fruits. Now, it is possible to dehydrate potatoes, carrots, cabbage, etc., to contain oniy one sixth of one percent moisture. Leafy vege- tables require no soaking, others from one to four hours. There 15 very littie food vàlue iost, they are tasty and in most cases re- W. H. BROWN DEALER FOR Case Farm Machmnery- Firestone Tires DeLaval Milkers and Separators Beatty Bros. Stable Equipment 91 King St. W. Phone 497 Acting Representative For Huron County, Announcement was made today Agricultural Extension for On- tario, of the appointment of Leroy G. Brown, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Brown, Orono, who for the past six months has been assistant agricultural representative for On- tario County, to the post of acting Agricuitural Representative for Huron County, with headquarters at Clinton. Mr. Brown has been appointed to thig position to carry on the work in Huron during the serious îllness of F. K. B. Stewart, the regular Agricultural Repre- sentative, who has been ill for some time. Owing to the fact that the International Plowing Match is being held in Huron this fall, it was feit that an acting repre- sentative should be appointed. Leroy G. Brown is a native of Durham County and a graduate of the Ontario Agricultural Col- lege of the year 1942. After grad- uation he served for a time as assistant agricuitural representa- tive in Grey and Middlesex Count- les, and then enlisted in the R.C. A.F. After three years service with the Air Force, he was de- mobilized and last fail was ap- pointed assistant representative in Ontario. He takes over the duties of his office at Clinton on May 1. Orono Officer Takes Irish Bride1 rs Informative tiadiau -Industries semble ciosely the original pro- duct. The story of how the Russian dandelion seed, haif pound, came to the University of Toronto, is an outcome of a war incident. This dandelion will produce 130 lbs. of rubber per acre and the processing is very simple. It was first discovered in 1931. The root is cooked gently, crushed, washed and pressed . The problem is not what to do with the rubber but rather how to cultivate the dan- delion successfuily in Canada. Plastics is much like a fairy story. Even the materials for manufacture and the process are weii nigh fantastic, to say no- thing of the dozens of uses made of this useful and fascinating materiai. Plastics are made from cotton linters, milk, coal tar, air and water, carboiic acid is the basic ingredient. They are iight- er, stronger and more resîstant to water than many of the materiais used formerly. Celiuloid and cel- lanite were the first plastics; bakelite and nylon are later ones. The uses vary from brushes to furniture, from dishes to shoes and stockings. Some of the Refugee Industries briefly deait with, as these are a complete story in themselves, were: kid gloves at Prescott, where 5,000 dozen pairs per year are turned out by Fischai and his helpers; Bata shoes at Frankfort and Port Hope; Alaska pine in- dustry from the homely hemlock in B.C.; ham curing by special processing in Saskatoon, known only by the maie members of the Solomon family. Mention was aiso made of the number of brul- liant doctors fromn various count- ries in Europe who took refugee in Canada and will this faîl grad- uate from our Universities and be free to use their skill in their chosen land. We must also mention that in the case of the plants at Prescott, Frankfort and the Alaska Pine, homes are provided by the own- ers of the plants and many priv- ileges given the workers. These are weei-kept, properous and happy settiements of new and old Canadians. With reference to the many qand varied, and marvellous in- dustries developing in Canada, the speaker concluded her story which this review gives in sket- chy form. Thanks was tendered to Mrs. Wright by group leader, Mrs. A. Richards, also to Veron- ica Friend for two very pleasing piano selections. The meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Friend under the leadership of President Mrs. L. Annis. The interesting roll cali, name an article made of plastic, brought forth the following list of articles seen by the mnembers: pot handies, door handies and knobs, plates, furniture, purses, picture frames, spoons, spectacle 1frames, shoes, cups, covering for fruit baskets to replace leno coverings. Letters of appreciation for fruit were received from Mrs. Partner and Mrs. B. Moore. Mrs. Rosevear was named to contact the church rboard re the park. Mrs. S. Hoar -was appoînted district director for 'the coming year. The comfort committee report for the past year was read. The secretary's report gave a comprehensive view of a very successful year's work. There are 31 members; held a meeting each month; heard five speciai speakers who were, Mrs. Waldon, Mrs. S. E. Werry, District Presi- dent; Miss Aked, Dr. G. Miller, Inspector T. R.

G. James, who lately arrived from overseas to rejoin her hus- band. The feature story in the magazine is an illustrated com- mentary on the current food pic- ture in the U.S.A. as compared with that in the British Isies. The story is one of the striking things lately taking place to awaken those on this side of the ocean to the very grave and pressing need to save more food for the millions on the verge of starvation in Europe. "Iliustrated" sent one of ils leading writers to New York, ac-- companied with a photographer, to get the story and pictures of present quantities of foods on display in stores and also the a- mounts of food wasted. The pic- tures tell graphically of the huge supplies availabie and shots of. garbage cans show the great ex- tent of xvaste. The story brings out the fact that there is no rationing save for sugar, an obli- gation stili imposed under the worid pool. The author comes to the con- clusion that New York wastes more food in one night than the people of ail Engiand get in three days. And a photo of one shop shows 30 different kinds of foods that have not been seen on Eng- lish counters sînce 1940, and with littie hope of seeing any of these for the next three years if present conditions prevail. Publication of stories of this kind, ail based upon facts and authenticated by pictures, have fui, wiil still abide. iss Steel, Supt. of Nurses, th Unit, Cobourg, addressed meeting, explaining the na- and scope of the work.

So the campaign as typified in "Iiiustrated" has gotten results. incide with the fact-finding miss- ion overseas of Ex-President Her- bert Hoover. The seriousness of the situation was emphasized by the world broadcast of Mr. Hoover at Easter. That these facts have now struck home in America was aiso brought out in the simuitaneous broadcasts of President Hoover and Ex-Mayor LaGuardia who now heads U.N.R.R.A.
