liquidation annihilation etc in reference to engage ments in all sectors the use of these words in the final victory have more meaning than casual reading of them in the columns may infer final victory is not likely to tunc as a result of territory gained but rather when the last fanatical nazi has been liquidated such terms may mean one of two things dead or a prisoner of war more and more it appears that the only solution is to have each german placed in the position where he himself is convinced that he is no superman and the german nation is not destined to rule all other nations just when complete liquidation of the german war machine will be accomplished is never certain but at the present rate of disintegration the time can not be long not many of us believed that the over running of france by the allies would be as rapid as it has been just a little over two months ago the first landing was made and splendid progress is now being made the gain of territory is splendid but the liquidat- i ion of the german war machine is important only coniplete annihilation will serve any purpose in main taining peace over a long periol of years l v i a silun in tim the growing season is n earing an end and the farmer will soon be on the last lap of his outdoor work for another year a suggestion that autumn and winter is the rightuiimetotcparfbrjrtjnadu cry may not be untimely heaven knows there are plenty of chores around a farm at all times to keep the farmer busy and hired hands are few and far between these days of labor shortages things that dont have to be done right away are likely to be postponed and sometimes forgotten altogether but it should be remembered that machinery- vital labor saver when manpower is at a premium only does its job well when it is in good shape the cost of maintenance increases rapidly too when machines are allowed to run down too many farmers neglect their machinery plows cultivators mowers hay rakes and other tools can be seen out in the open when not in uac gathering a beautiful coating of rust a machinery shed should be a must on every property that plow that was bent when u hit the big stone in the back 10 acres may not be needed right away but the winter is just the time to have it straighten ed so that it will be ready for spring that mower that has chipped cutting blades should be put into shape and the binder with the broken slats should be repaired the federal government recently removed certain duties on agricultural equipment with a view to re ducing the price to the farmer and increasing the availability of supplies but it is certain the number of farm machines available during the next few year will be limited canada and the united states will be called upon to send farm toots to liberated countries in europe to help reestablish agriculture on a sound footing this will be a heavy drain on the output of factorial which normally supply canadian needs the man who keeps his machinery in repair dur ing the remaining war period and the first years of peace will he helping himself and the other fellow who just cant keep his old machinery working any longer of chive already advanced that it say he comtmtimg it does appear that one of canada big tasks dar ing the years that follow the war will be raisins food for europe hungry millions the advances of the allies in italy and france have progressed far enough to bring the realization that the first necessity of the liberated people is food if the allies cannot supply it i hey will be looked upon by many of the liberated people as ao better than the rule from which they have been liberated it as quite evident that the needed foodstuffs cannot be secured from the countries that have been overrun by the ravages of war it t from this con tinent that the supplies will have to come largely the canadian farmer therefore will play an im portant part in these postwar years on him dc volves the task of helping restore some order in europe because order cannot come while people arc hungry much it being done to increase product ion here wc have evidence of good crops trut year and the hope they cartall twf garnered if you can help in any way in storing these cropi or awjsting on the farm the food production line you will be helping imroenurly in the volution of the big problem now facing the allies in europe v ihan now to own a lloase in spite of the fact that not a place of residence jaava liable and scores of people are forced jscctac outside the municipality and come in and out to work each day there is no evidence of expensive building in acton perhaps the present discouraging lack of supplies is the prime reason and home builders cn scarcely be blamed because discouragement is met at every turn the new housing legislation recently introduced should make it easy for those in event moderate circumstances to build a home in the postwar period on a 4000 house 90 per cent of a loan can be secur ed and for the houses above that amount the amount of the loan is decreased but acton is most inter ested in the moderate priced home important provisions of this part of the act iu dude a reduction in the rate of interest payable by the borrower to 4 per cent loans are to be for a period not exceeding 20 years except houses con structed in an area which in the opinion of the min istcr is adequately protected by community planning and appropriate zoning restrictions in this case the term of the loan may bcbetween 20 and 30 year v business directory ok w g c kenney csuooas a or
