ISSUE 20â€"1946 BRIDES REPLACE PLANES ON CARRIER'S DECK Famed British aircraft carrier "Indefatigable" starts the most unusual voyage of her career at Ports- mouth, England. She is carrying 109 brides of Au-,tralian and New Zealand servicemen to their new homes "down imder." Strikes Don't Fit In With Farming Farmers Must Accept Losses When They Withhold Products .Among tlic more sensational headlines dealing with the latest meat crisis in the Toronto area were the ones hinting at a strike of Ontario beet producers, says tlie Financial Post. Details were ne- cessarily vague tor tl-,e very good reason that sucli a proposal is just about unadulterated nonsense. The strikes don't fit in with farming any more than schemes for the five-day week or the ciglit-iicur day. About the nearest thing of that kind was the refusal of millions cf Russian "kulaks'* to co-operate with the Soviet authorities 25 years ago. The result was mass starva- tion, with the farmers themselves the chief victims. Nature Asserts Itself The basic difficulty in enforcing a farm strike or five-day week is the refusal of Nature to play ball. Grass and cattle will continue to grow. Calves, lambs and chicks continue to be born. Cows must be milked and pigs must be fed no matter what tli; owner may think about it. if he refuses to cut the hay or milk the cows, then he himself is the first to lose. Like the indiv' lual businessman, the fanner's main interest must be pro- duction, as continuous and econ- omically as possible. Switch May Be Necessary it is ridiculous for the producer of beef cattle or any other farm conunodity to think of witliholding any marketable product for any length of time. Once it passes the right stage for processing, it begins to deteriorate or it runs up storage charges. If grain-fatteijcd cattle are turned out to grass, they will lose tlieir finisii and all the work and iced that went into that finish- ing is largcj^' wasted. Once hogs are brought to the approved -00- odd pound market weight, they must be butchered or they will be docked for excess fat and coarse- ness of flesh. .\nd even the unfor- tunate who ha^ never left the city pavement knows what happens to fruit and vegetables if kept too long. it, as a result of excessive cost or low price, T product fails to pro- duce a consistent profit, the far- mer will, if he can, gradually switch to somethiti, else, but he only pyramids his losses by re- fusing to sel' what he has already produced.

WHY HAVE* ' SOKE iFEET> IH ^ROS! ^LWmc SPOTS OF SPORTS By FRANK MANN f^AKl^iS >tat»«»«»««»»«»»i \ A Ol3i lilt L.nt]C ) a »»â- <»«»â-  â-  ««â- Â»Â»Â»< Prior lo last Saturday's Ken- tucky Derby it had been a con- siderable stretch of time since last we had the pleas- - - privilege of hearing Mr. Ted Husing steaming up the air-waves. But we hadn't been listening to him for more than half a minute before we again became conscious of certain sen- timents wliich, in former days, always used to come over us when ever we heard that particular microphone-artist in action; said sentiments being, (1) What a master of the situation he is; (2» What a marvellous flow of lang- uage lie possesses: and (3)Wha: a severe pain in the neck he gives us. « » * These, of course, are strictly per- sonal cntiments, although we know of several who share them. But it's a funny thing how just the very tones of some broadcasters voices can seem to set your nerve? on edge We know tiuite well that Brother Husing rates very close to being tops in his profession, and that it little behooves the likes ot us to be critizing one so eminent. .\nd yet. somehow or other, it's impossible for us to listen to him without the feeling that there ari; two of ' im there â€" the one doing the job, and the other standing off and admiring tlie super-superlative job the first is doing, « 4c 4< However, the actutil race sound- ed O.IC. good old Clem McCarthy calling same in his usual workman- like and efficient fashion. And t!ie snooty remarks we have just pas.-- ed about Mr. Husing are no doub: nothing but a case of sour grapes because we didn't have a $10 wag- er on the winner, who certainly didn't perform like any eight-to- one shot. In our own defense v\e m' ;ht state that we did consider very seriously making a small in- vestment in ASS.\ULT, being de- terred from so doing by only three small nattefs â€" lack of cash ni pocket, lack of credit with books, and inability to decide between ASS.VL'LT and some nine other starters. * * * A constant source of amazement to us is finding out how many tilings liicre are we feel absolutely confident of knowing â€" and then discovering, in a pinch, that w\.- don't know them .,t all. For in stance, right after the Kentucky Derby, already referred to, a junior member of the familj, who had been languidly listening to Clem McCaithy describe .'VSS.^UL^ winning by eight lengths, popped up with a seemingly-innocent query. It was, "Say, i)op, just how far is a length;" * « * Ue were immediately beset with one of those severe coughing spells which always seem to attack a per- son â€" and which come in so very handy â€" at such junctures. Bui this one aid no good at all. Xui even waiting for our coughing to subside, and sliowinj: an utter lacK of s\n;pathy for our sufferings, our whole mob was on the trail, insist- ing on a definite answer to a defin- ite kpiestion â€" Just what distance consti'iilcs 'a length" in horse rac ing. * * * As soon as we had cooled out somewhat, we had recourse to t'lc record-books to try and find,^ oui what really docs constitute length. .\nd, v,hile no doubt there is a definite rr.linp some place n other, the nearest we could con-o to it was in Frank Menke's booi- where it saysâ€" "the average race horse is something over eight fee: in length while rmuiing with ncc'; -stretched out." ♦ -• And so, pending the receipt ol more accurate information, that is where we propose to leave the matter. .\nd if, some evening, cur- ly-haired little Iodine should look up at you out of her big blue orbs and say, "Daddy, how far is a length" y<ni can tell her with our coniplimems, that eight feet is close enough to beinj correct as to make no matter. And then, gently but firmly push the little darling off to bed or. first thii.g you know, she'll be asking you if, in timing horse-races, the time is taken from exact instant wh.en the barrier is sprung. With regard to that Ir.st one. we may say th.at the time is not taken from the springing of "he barrier â€" but mig!;t add that prtibably nine out of ten folks who attend horse races think that it is, and wha' difference does it really make, after all? V,"ith which profound thought wc will mercifully leave vou for another week. Farmers Combine To Do Their Buying We do not advocate that farm- ing should be in the hands of a few big organizations, but there is no reason why adjacent groups ot farmers shouh'. not combine to do their buying in the same way thdt co-operative groups combine to do their selling, says the St. Thomas Times -Journal. There arc regions in Canada where from 12 to 20 farmers ha%'e got together under this system. Instead of each man buying his own equipment, his own seed. fortilfeers and other needs, they buy as a unit. By co-operative efforts they get their seeding, plow-ing and other work done at the right seasons, and by buying in quantities they get their supplies cheaper. Thus iii-tead of hundreds ot thousands of fanners working as indiviUial units at higli individual cost which prevents them getting what they regar! as fcononuca. prices rot their produce, they would reduce ovcrliead costs and would not require to ask the un- fortunate city people to pay con- tinually higl'.er prices out of fixed incomes.
