Af- ITALIAN WINS $5,000 FOR LARGEST FAMILY Florence, Italy, May 2,.--Mus:o- lini's efforts to raise Italy's birth rate--has turned eut well for Glu- seppe Pini, a bricklayer living iu this city, who has won 'the prize of 100,000 liras, about $5,000, for having had four children born to himself and his wife between Oc- tober 28, 1922, and the same date of 1928. The magic value of the first date consists in thé fact that it was the *|day of the Fascist march on Rome, * {when Mussolini became Italy's dic- tator. He is the father of eight chil- dren, of whom the last four were born within the required time. He is 39 years old. Pini's wife hag had a child al- most every year since she married in 1918. It is characteristic of the attitude towards the weaker sex in this country that neither official re- ports of the award nor the papers make any allusion to Jer. All the praise, and presumably, all the money is for the father.

For all uses listed on the label and many others-- cutlery, refrigerators, mirrors, stoves, stone steps, etc., there is nothing else like Old Dutch. Old Dutch keeps everything spick and span and assures that most important feature of good house. keeping, Healthful Cleanliness. Old Dutch does this by removing the unhealthful invisible impurities as Old Dutch is composed of a natural detergent of distinctive character, free from harsh, scratchy grit, acid and caustic. To the eye a fine powder--the mi- croscope shows that its particles are flaky and flat shaped. Like thousands of tiny erasers they remove all uncleanliness without scratching. Scratches are catch-alls for dirt and impurities. As Healthful Cleanliness is the safeguard to health, so Old Dutch is your safeguard to Healthful Cleanliness. There's nothing else like it. Made in Canada utch /®= f = lags the Pest Never Equalled [or50 Years Luke spent Sunday in| NO RELIEF IS SEEN IN GRAIN TIE-UP Absolute Deadlock in Effect; Millions of Bushels Halt- ed in Transit Port Colborne, May 2.--"Worse and more of it" was the phrase us- ed this morning by marise men in 'describing the grain jam here which is more serious than ever. Ten upper lake vessels are tied up with a total of about 3,898,000 bushels of. grain, the elevator is jammed with 3,000,000 bushels and there is no relief in sight, There {s a strong possibility of things becoming worse for on the way are four more upper lakeg boats with another 1,- 304,000 bushels. No a]leviation being in sight the crews of several of the boats were paid off yesterday. This leaves a host of unemployed men clutter- ing the town, as they will wait un- til the vessels are ready to sail and sign on again. Transportation officials were thoroughly disgusted and had no hope for relief for many days to come. They again declared that more elevator facilities should be erected both here and at Montreal. One pointed out that additional capacity to the extent of 10,000,000 or 15,000,000 bushels could be us- ed in Port Colborne alone. He de- clared that at present there was. not sufficient leeway between the upper lakes and Montreal. One or two days' tie up at the latter point was sufficient to jam things here. This, he strongly felt, should pot | be, declaring that there should be at least one week's and better two week's storage gpace here. The situation taken on the whole id entirely without precedent anu never before has there been such a general tie up. It was reported here this morning that Montreal had about sixty vessels waiting to unload and only four were able to be taken care of, In addition, Buf- falo is plugged and about six mil- fon bushels are on board craft wait- ing to discharge there, The following is the list of ships here and their cargoes: Osler, 455,000 bushels; Goodyear 550,000; Asheroft, 500,000; Soodoc 250,000; Prindoe, 200,000; Glen Bagles, 525,000; Midland Wing, 257,000; Valcartier, 671,000; Maur- tian, 240,000 and Vandoe, 250,000. Enroute are: Royalton, 385,000; Ontago, 253,000; Collingwood, 281,- 000; and Mathewston, 385,000. ITALUANS RETURN T0 FARM DISTRICTS Premier Mussolini's Cam- paign Is Moving Stead- ily Ahead Rome, May 2.--Premier Benito Mussolini's campaign to put Ital- fans '""back on the farm" is moving steadily ahead. The "Government on Saturday night announced an order for the People who prize the finer things of life usually demand Red Rose Orange Pekoe Tea. A money-back guarantee with every package. REDRO TEA isgood ted" RED ROSE ORANGE PEKOE is extra good gradual sending back of unemploy- ed persons in Rome to their na- tive villages. The order applies to those who recently have emigrated to the capital. Some hundreds of these unem- ployed live in temporary huts ou the outskirts of Rome. The hus will be pulled down. Roman-born occupants- will be provided with other accommodations in newly- built working-class quarters. The others will be sent back to their original homes. The Premier has made frequent appeals to citizens in the last year, urging them to stay in the farmina districts, and not to migrate to the cities. He has pictured the less attractive angles of city life, and has warned workers that they would be much better off in tne country. Among the most important pub- lic works which the Premier nua launched in his campaign to ims prove agriculture is the reclama- tion of a large area of land in the Torralba district of Sardinia, The King and Queen, accompan- jed by Princess Giovannia and Princess Maria, left for Gaeta at noon Monday, en route to Sardinia to inaugurate the project. They will embark on the royal yacht, Sa- vola, at Gaeta. The King also will inaugurate a number of other pub- lic projects during a three-day visit. The reclamation will make pos sible the cultivation of a formefly impoverished and dry area. A mod- ern system of irrigation has been installed, and the area will be col- onized by settlers from the Vene- tian provinces. The area will be divided into six large farms. A vils lage of 200 rural dwellings already has been erected. It will be named after Mussolini. Highest Quality FRESH PINEAPPLE LARGE WINESAP APPLES CHOICE NEW POTATOES HEAD LETTUCE .
