the editor corner rental regulations help war veterans under amendments to rental regulations hon orably discharged veterans of the canadian armed forces may obtain occupancy of homes owned by them at the time of enlistment on a three months notice to vacate this amendment was recently introduced by the wartime prices trade board in order that dis charged servicemen could more quickly j rehabilitate themselves in their oldsurroundings and is particularly timely in view of the large numoers of men now return ing to civilian life it has also been provided that if the serviceman was living in a home owned by his par ents the parent may give a three months notice to vacate to the present tenant if he wishes his returned son or daughter to occupy the premises again niagara falls moving southwards niagara falls means different things to different minds to the newlyweds it spells honeymoon to the old woman of the joke it represents only a tumble waste of water to the geologists of the royal on tario museum it poses an interesting problem of time and erosion before the great lakes existed or the glaciers invaded ontario the lake erie basin was drained by a stream called the erigan river it is believed to have cut across to the lake ontario basin near dundas the glacier advancing southward scraped the erigan val ley full of drift and when the lastglacier left the region the old valley was sealed up thelakeerie basin fill ed up with water and spilled over the escarpment at queen s ton niagara falls originated at that time and the river began the cutting of its gorge which has re quired about 25000 or 30000 years the falls are re treating up the river now at the rate of three or four jeet a year as established by a number of surveys at this rate they would reach lake erie and start to drain it in about 45000 yean this is a long time from the human standpoint but very short in geological history man may delay the advance of the falls up the river by building protective works of some kind to decrease the rate of cutting of the horseshoe falls urge maintenance of meat production a recentcircular from the lnduitrialandde velopment council of canadian meat packers contains an interesting analysis of the future of the canadian meat industry and warns farmers not to concentrate on grain production to the exclusion of meats here is how the council sums up the situation there are strong indications that the shelves of the meat cupboards of the producing countries are becoming bare some day mother hubbard may not find a bone for the dog in this war meat supplies have been kept mov ing from every country and there does not appear to tstrrbackoartywherxljjjlr has bee set up to feed the peoples of liberated and conquered coun tries some of the liberated countries are seeking to make additional provision for supplies on their own account we are just beginning to feel the impact of these things odds and ends of surpluses of meat pro ducts as well as main stocks are disappearing all the evidence tends to confidence in the production of animal products of every kind it is now clear that the worlds meat shelves arc depleted mother hubbard is looking for a bone and that the odds and ends are being gathered together it is said there is a shortage of 2500000 tons or 5000 000000 pounds in terms of beef at 500 lbs per head it is equal to 10000000 cattle or 36000000 hogs at 140 lbs of pork per head the whole of the cattle po pulation of canada or about 60 per cent of the present hog population of the united states would be required to fill the immediate deficit the ration of bacon in britain is being cut to the lowest point it has reached since the beginning of the war partly because of canadas failure to maintain exports the countries of europe now beginning tp emerge from the devastation are besieging the more fortunate countries begging for meats and fats it is to be expected that in the process of the rehabilitation of agricultural production in europe those crops which can be used directly for human con sumption will be first restored to normal volume these are mainly wheat rye barley oats potatoes and green vegetables- until europe has restored normal cereal grain production it would appear that there will be cxtraor- dinary demands on the grain supplies of the countries i that produce a surplus of animal products in other t words the need for cereal products for direct human consumption in europe will compete with the need ior grains to- feed animals to supply meat for europe con ditions will therefore tend to retard animal production these arejhe shortterm period prospects however in a comparatively short time production of crops which may be used directly for human consump tion will return to surplus supply at that time those countries and those farmers which have persisted in their normal production of meat animals will once more prove the soundness of their course for a time it will be easy to sell grain for cash but we have only to look back over the recent past to see written large in our agricultural records the folly of losing a sense of balance production canadas main opportunity in surplus animal production is in the supply of the british bacon market in 1932 hog prices fell to very low levels many far mers cursed the hog business within a year hog prices had risen to the point whereby hog production became the farmers salvation grain prices remained pros trate during the war there were considerable periods when although nominally at fair prices gaircould not be cashed because it could not be- moved hogs were and are in continuous demand our opportunity in the british market is the greatest it has ever been the requirement to realiza- m tion of this opportunity is the steady unfaltering main tenance of a good volume of high quality product by doing a part each producers will help heroic britain to balance her food supplies j nonfraternization in 1919 our local postmaster ltcol g b s cousens has showed us some documents from the last war which in view of present discussions of the nonfrater nization orders for our troops in germany are of gener al interest that german uprisings were feared as late as six months after cessation of hostilities is shown in a brigade order dated may i 7th 1919 whicrcgives de tailed instructions to be followed in the event of such uprising a secret document dated april 19th 1919 says it has been reported that at a recent meeting held in unoccupied germany the proposal to kill on one night all british and french officers in occupied territory was accepted in principal although there appears to be no immediate danger yet a warning of this nature cannot be ignored the letter goes on to give specific instructions to officers regarding carrying of revolvers armed patrols and the investigation of englishspeaking germans directory f r watson da 1uubl offlo bonn i to dr j burns milne announcement our place of
