phone 113 georgetown ure vehicle the reason for this rather surprising definition is that the purpose of the bylaw was to restrict the traffic on certain resi dential streets and to forbid heavy vehicles to use them it was then found that the lawmakers had tor- gotten that deaths would occur rather thaia amend the bylaw which reserved the streets for pleasure ve- hlcles the city fathers chose to widen the definition in the course of the inquiry into ontarios highway transportation now proceeding before mr justice chemer iffaas been- alleged in onebrier that ontarios l were- built prt maraly for the use of pleasure ve hicles the makers of this statement while using it as the basis or an argument that commercial veitcles should pay the lions share of high way maintenance and construction carefully avoid the definition of their terms in common speech the terms pleas ure vehicle and passenger automobile are interchangeable but if an at tempt were made to establish a differ ence between pleasure and commer cial vehicles for purposes of taxation ontarios legislators would quickly find themselves encompassed with some dlfflult problems for example when a man drives his car to hit office in the morning it probably is a commercial vehicle i certainly is commercial when he drives it to sell an order to a customer if he then drives to the golf course the same car becomes a pleasure vehicle if a farmer drives his family town to see a movie and on the same trip takes a lew bags of potatoes in the back seat to sell to a grocer is his car a pleasure or a commercial vehl- cle lt his wife drives to town on a shopping expedition how is the lrlp to be classified there were vehicles and roads ontario long before there were either railways or automotive vehicles ix those days no- one would have serl ously argued that the sole purpose of the roads was to let the young bloods rf-the- village take their girls buggy rides roads then as well as now were for the general good the community serving all classes of population growth of motor traffic has nuae necessary the construction of roads and more expensive roads and the construction and maintenance must be paid for it seems fair that a large share of these charges should be met by the motor vehicles and that their share of the costs should divided proportionately to their of the roads but lt must also be re membered that the roads serve the buyers of goods as well as the sellers and transporters the timrnttm costs should not be borne entirely by the motor vehicles the opesrtion of the eyibv tax automatically divides the motor vehi cles share with fairness the heavi er vehicle uses more gasoline per mile and contributes more towards high way maintenance no other form of motor taxation has yet been suggest ed that is not an arbitrary method of allocating the costs birds butmerely cradles for their young a walk through the woods in winter shows them to be utterly de serted but on such a walk one may catch glimpses of the rather- pitiful attempts of the winter birds to find shelter at evening the crows may be een flying in rocks to the nearest nine forest to spend the night no trees offer such shelter to the birds as do the evergreen conifers they are haven not only for the crows but for goldfinches sparrows and any oners winter nights close in around the main trunks they fuddle and the heavy- green branches ward off wind and snow but even there- in very cold weather the birds do not appear warm often they cling by one foot with other ltfed and tucked under a wing hollow trees that are not already taken by squirrels are fine bird shelters but since birds do not ake up sq permanent a winter residence as the squirrels they are apt to find them all occupied any tree thathappens to be cover ed over with vines that will hold a snow canopy affords a shelter hat the birds seek for and in thickets and viae tangles all over the woods we may hear a fluttering that gives away the secret of bird shelters snow buntings and juncos like to crawl by way of some natural nole into a snow bank for a nights sleep phoebes find niches in stone walls to tuck themselves into woodpeckers that go south for winter leave holes in the tree trunks that smaller birds rsparrows waxwlngs nuthatches una chickadees can creep into other woodpeckers stay north and make use of their own excavations at night corn shocks and hay stacks stand ing in open fields attract winter birds by their warmth and the waste galn that may be left in them meadow larks sleep beneath tufts of snowladen grass on the ground quail coveys huddle under the snow pressed close together for warmth sleeping as the meadow quail always sleep with heads pointing outward formin a circle a crust of tee flown over a field of snow may leave beneath it a circle of little dead quail that tells a tragic story wild fowl take night refuge wherever there are low marshes and have learned to settle dose to the bordering sedges in winter where tiie water is less apt to freeze but there tragedy may overtake them from some hunters gun lying in wait behind the sedges but bird tragedies are frequent an winter nights from natural causes having no regular holes or lairs almost all other wimrii have they are very much at the mercy of winter a manmade bird shelter with food suppliedhow they welcome it and there is no better way to become ac quainted with the bird kingdom than to build a blrdhouse in the back yard and watch- for who may enter lt on winter days to say nothing of the satisfaction it gives to think of at least a few of our feathered friends finding refuge on cold nights in a shelter we have provided doris m slates in our pumb animals on the same bench two battered ould wrecks were sit ting on a bench in the pwk when one remarked tbi a man who never took advice from anybody shake brother said the other im a man who followed everybodys advice a barley test in halton on the farm of f c wllhnott son milton an interesting test on barley was conducted during the past summer mr willmotts sou in the particu- lar field in which the test was carrieo on is a clay loam slightly acid in re- action and low in available nitrogen phosphorus and potash last spring the department of chemistry ontario agricultural college in cooperation with the local office of the depart ment of agriculture laid down a series of onenaif acre tests on mr willmotts barley field the plan is to run this test through a rotation of at least three crops hence ajthmrgb returns are very interesting the en- tire reportl5itllng made at this time on one of mr willmotts plots 3136 was applied at 250 lbs per acre this was co with fertiliser the preceding crop was oats in 1930 no manure was added tbe313e yielded 487 bus per acre while the unfertilized yielded 384 dub per acreleavmg a gain of 123 buin- els of barley for the two bags of fertiliser the fertiliser would cost fsub and the barley at current prices i 53c would be worth ss34 this would leave a net profit of 336 per acre resulting tram the use of ferti liser mr willmotts fertilizer grain was much plumper than was the un fertilized it made an earlier start came nut- in head earlier and ripened more evenly than did the adjoining unfertilized grain the catch of alfalfa will undoubt edly show the results of the ad ditional

health and to actual disease if some part of the body has become diseased then as part of the treat ment for the patient a diet should be used- which will not throw any extra strain upon an already weak ened or diseased organ thus facllf- atlng the recovery of that organ the kidneys have the task of rid ding the body of much of its waste material in nephritis or brlghts disease the kidney is not able to function properly the treatment therefore aims to relieve the kidney of as much of its burden as- possible there is no diet which is suited to all cases of kidney disease the prop er diet in any individual case de pends upon the nature and extent of the disease people have read that acid foods are harmf ulr andtheystart to live on what they think is a non- acid diet without even knowing what are the acid and what are the alka line foods as a matter of fact a diet made up of an excess of alkaline foods is actually harmful and lt is certainly not the best diet for damaged kid neys there should be a balanced diet so that therejs no maiked ex cess of either alkaline or add foods a slight excess of alkaline loods la generally desirable the acid foods are meats poultry fish eggs and the cereals alkaline foods are the fruits and vegetables it is a surprise to many people that the citrus fruits leave an alkaline ash after they are used up in the body and that oysters leave an acid ash practically this means that the diet should include a liberal amount of fruits and vegetables there is a real difference between a saltfree diet and a saltpoor diet in some cases of nephritis it la necessary to cut down the amount of salt used because the kidney has dif ficulty in secreting lt which leads to edema or swelling a salttree met requires medical supervision a salt- poor- diet can be secured through not adding salt to the food at table and by avoiding salted fish nuts and other salted foods when diet is a part of the treat ment for any disease lt requires just as careful prescribing and supervision as does any other port pf the treat ment diet is certainly not a cure- all but lt is of importance in the treatment of some diseases self-ex- perlmentatlon by trying various diets- is dangerous because of the harm which lt may cause questions concerning health ad dressed to the canaldan medical as sociation 184 college street toronto will be answered personally by
