THNURSDAY. .-TNE 2.rd. 1940 ______________________ TH E AJ liIAN ST bATEMAN, BOWMANVIMLE.ONTARIO Women's Local Conimillee Red Cross Sent 2,285 Nuch Needed Garnients To Children & Nothers in Gt.,Britain Dear M-. Editor. At a recent meeting of the Exec- utive body of the local brancb of the Canadian Red Cross Society, 1 was amazed at the extent of the work done by the Women's Work Committee under the chairman- zhip of Mrs. D. F. Henry. From February 16 to May 20 of this year, this very active commit- tee completed and shipped 'to the Canadian Red Cross Society ware- bouse in Toronto no less than 2,285 n'eful and mucb needed garments dnursery accessories for chil- XN-en and niothers of Great Brit- Smn. The ladies of this committee are to be praised for this very com- nlendable effort for such a worthy cause and for the efficiency of the organization within such a com- rnittee. It is weil to note at this point that, some $70000 of the money collected locally during last year's campaign was expend- ed for the material used in the making of those many hundreds of garments. I am relying on your usual cour- tesy that you will include this let- ter in your next issue of The Statesman thus giving your read- ers some idea of the work carried on by the local branch of the Red Cross Society. In addition to the work of the Womnen's Committee, which never stops in peace or war, much of the money qpllected lo- cally bas been expended on the purchasing of Cod Liver 0i1 whicih bas been distnibuted among the children of the schools with the co-operation of the Durham and Northumberland Counties Healtn Unit. I am sure that our people here will flot let such a wonderful work go by the board for the lack of funds. Every cent that is spent by the local Red Cross branch must come from voluntary contribu- tions of the people of this area. The campaign is now in progress. Won't you give ahl you can?

Cartnwright Couple Married at Nestletc SOME HINTS ON BROILER REARING The aim in rearing broilei chickens should be to get them tV market size with the least possiblE cash outlay, an~d yet provide thE necessary care to ensure goo< quaiity in the product. Good quali. is directiy associated with pro- fit, for continued consumer de- marud cannot be expected when, due to faulty rearing practices, thin unsightiy birds are marketed, Perhaps the principle error to bu avoided is failure to allow suffi- cient space for growth, particuiar- ly when chicks are hatched early in the year. At the Dominion Ex- Perimental Station at Harrow, Ont., saYs W. F. Mountain, Head Poultryman, records of broiler development show that Barrec Rock chicks averaging 11/2 ounces have increased their initial weighl over 20 times within a period of ten weeks. If size increases can be considered relative to weighl gains , the number of chicks start- ed should be based on an aliow- ance of two square feet of floor space for each bird. Later hatched chicks that have access to outside runs can do with less floor space, but whatever the time of the year, overcrowding shouid be avoided. Sanitation, which remains an im- portant factor in the cootrol of di- sease and insect infestations, is difficuit to maintain if overcrowd- ing is permitted. Speciaiiy designed broiler ma- shes can be procured but many farms have home produced feed which aid in reducing costs. Skim mulk, if available, should lie used. Green feed, either growing in convenient yards or chopped Up and fed in troughs, makes palat- able supplements, rich in minerais and vitamins. The freshness of feed is also important, for not only do broilers show a keen appetite for freshiy mixed mash, but cer- tain properties which fresh feeds contain, tend to, diminisb in stor- age. Peru bas winter and sum- mer at the same time. When it's JImet on. the -coast-andvice versa. And S.. I.« Y,,r 0wY, Complet.

This display is made Up of work done by a group of people in Bowmanviile who have spent their spare time learn- ing the art of leathercraft and have now many handsome pieces of leatherwork to show. A class in leathercraft has been held at the Lions Community Centre every Tuesday night for the past year. Under the capable guidance of Mr. M. Slute, a teach- er at the Central Public School, 29 grownups, High School and Public School students have spent 2 hours once a week learning this interesting and useful art. Last week, a Hobby Fair was held at the Community Recrea- tion Association Centre in Osha- wa and this group of local people entered the work they had done as a group project and were suc- cessful in winning a special award for class work of unusual and non-competitive character. In this display were beautifuily tooled women's handbags, key cases, wallets, bookends, book covers, zipper notebooks and even a pair of slippers Mrs. Forrestt Diiling won two awards for a black purse that she had made. When this ciass was started last year, the first articles that were made were small objects such as key and comb cases. However, it wrasn't long until other articles requiring more skiil were attemp- ted. As the students of this type of work becomes more adept, more intricate designs are worked requiring a great deal of skill at tooling. There is no end to the va- nious designs and colours that can be used in leather work. Leathercraft makes an except- ionally interesting hobby and next year when the ciass is started again, it is expected that there will be many new members. The leather and the tools for these classes are obtained fromn the Lew- is Craft, Toronto, and Hobby Craft Peterboro. Mr. Slute as wel as teaching craft at the Central Public and in- structing the class in leathercraft at the Cornmunity Centre spends another evecing teaching new Ca- nadians 'ow to speak English. The foliowng are those who be- long to the leathercraf class that meets every Tuesday evenng: Mrs. F. Dilling, Mrs. A.

Currants are natives of cool, moist, northern climates; are har- dy and will withstand extremely low temperatures if windbreaks are provided. Black currants thriv'e well under the climatic con- ditions that prevail in central Canada, particularly on heavy well-drained soils, and yields up to four tons an acre may be ob- tained. Red and white currants yield even heavier crops than the black. The pamphlet, Currant Culture, gives full information for the three kinds. on cultural methocis, proper fertilization, pruning, and suitable varieties. It may be ob- tained from the Dominion Depart- ment of Agriculture, Ottawa. Ask CURRANT CULTURE There is good news for those people who are interested in grow- ing currants. Thanks to the per- sistent efforts of plant breeders, the long-dreamed-of black currant resistant to white pine blister rust -a very serious disease where the five needled pine is grown exten- siveiy for timber-may soon be a reality. Currants should flot be planted in districts where white pine is considered of commercial impor- tance, as they are hosts to white pine blister rust. This bush fruit can, it is pointed out in a Domin- ion Department of Agrculture pamphlet, Currant Culture, be grown successfuliy where white pines are of nio economic impor- tance, if timely and careful spray- qnTr eq A WT A M A iff onq A F"Vffse A l? lsolvmr A lkvvý v ý - . -.- Power is so characteristically calm, that calmness itself has the aspect of powver, and forbearance implies strength.
