.'*^'! May Solve Ontario's Hockey Problem â€" Tlie outdoor rink shown .ibove is an arcliitects draw- injj I tlu' kind <if outdoor, artilicial ice rinks wliicli have become so popular in recent years, all over liie I'nitcd States, especially in New York City where the Rockefeller I'laza is a skatinpf surface of this kind. The huildinf; at the end is a dressing room, refreshment booth, and refrig- eration i)Iant. Ten of these rinks are being built in Toronto and there will l)e two of them in Flainilton. The refrigerating pipes are enil)edded in the polished composition floor so that it niaki's a s])lendi<l surface for roller skating and summer dancing. Canadian farmers, and i>.pcci;illy those ill the poultry Inisincss. owe a real doht of gratitude to VV. A. Brown, (.'.B.IC, \ ho recently retired to private Hie after .^9 years witli the Dominion Deparlincnt of .XBri- cuhurc. l"(.r many of those years he directed tlic activities of the Poul.ry -Marketing and Production Service, and it was under his guid- ance tliat the poultry industry de- veloped fr<ini sonietaing of a side- line to fanning, into the highly eflficicnt and widespread organiza- tion it is today. ; • " » » An Ontario man, Mr. Brown, was born '>5 years ago in Meaford and attended the Ontario Agricul- tural College at Guelph aad the University of Maine. He turned down several promising offers of icadeniic work to join the Depart- ment of .Xgriculturc, in 1911, as a poultry specialist. * * * He pioneered in national poultry breeding jjolicies, and had the sat- isfaction (if seeing them established in Canada long before they became common in any other country. (Of course, there is still Russia to be heard from. Probably they'll be telling us that one of their scien- tists did all that Brown did, and more, several hundred years ago. But that's by the way). « * • Other projects sponsored by this leader in our poultry industry were national grading standards for eggs and poultry, Wlien they were established in Canada in 1915 they were unknown in other coun- tries. A refinement of this basic principle of national grading is shown in the establishment of reg- istered egg grading stations, all operated on the same method, from coast to coast, * ♦ • As chief of the poultry services, the procuring and marketing of the tremendous quantity of eggs and •Kg powder shipped to Britain dur- ing the Second World War were largely Mr. Brown's responsibility. That the job was well done is shown by the fact that over 505,- 000,000 dozen eggs were shipped in fresh, (Irieil or frozen form, valued at $191,000,000. In addition, $45,- 000,000 worth of dressed poultry was sold to the United Kingdom and the United States. • ♦ ♦ The high regard with which Ca- nadian egg products were received on the British market is a fitting tribute to Mr Brown's untiring ef- forts. That they nut with such praise goes back, in large measure, to his pioneer work in establishing national grading standards a gen- eration ago. And I am sure every reader of this column will join with me in wishing Mr. Brown many years in udiich to enjoy a -.veil- earned rest, » • » Thousands of farmers â€" and other folk, too â€" have gone about mixing their own concrete, and then won- dered why the job didn't prove any too satisfactory. Tlie Kxpcrimcntal I'arm at .Swift Current hands out some valuable advice on this im- por;ant matter, and starts off by saying â€" DON'T use too imich wat- er in mi.xing concrete, and DON'T FORGET to screen pit-run gravel. » ♦ » Think of a brick wall. Here large pieces of baked clay (bricks) are held together with mortar. A mor- tar that is too "sloppy" oozes out, and a weak wall will result. In many ways, concrete is similar to a brick wall. Coarse material is held together by mortar. The mortar in this case is a mixture of sand, Portland cement and water. This is mixed along with the coarse ma- terial all in the one operation. * * * The strength of the mi.\turc when it has "set" will depend upon the amount of water used in relation to the cement. Note this point. It is the amount of wafer used in rela- tion to the cement that is so im- portant. * * * The dealer from whom you buy your cement will be able to get useful bulletins on • ixing and using concrete for you. Ask for "Quality Concrete" and "What the Farmer Can Do With Concrete." These are published by the Port- land Cement Association. ♦ ♦ * It pays to screen pit-run gravel. Then use the coarse and fine ma- terial according to the directions. If too much fine material is used in relation to the coarse material, more cement will be required. At the Swift Current station, most pit- run gravel contains too much sand. It was found that a man's wages could be paid screening the gravel. A good workman would handle enough material in an hour to save nearly one sack of cement. • * ♦ Properly graded aggregates (sand and gravel), the right amount of water and cement, will give a dense and strong concrete at a minimum cost. aittine Bull - El tofo took a- tumble during tins bulllight m Vfexiro City, and landed in what appeared to be a sitting position. Whirling his cape as he gracefully avoids the bull s •larp horns is Antonio Vaiesquez, one of Mexico s top mata- . ,r.s. BnllfiBhting was a feature of the recent Spring Festival in Mexico City. He Wrestles With His Daughter's Killer Every day. Captain J!ni Roose, late of the Foreign Legion, wrestles with the lioness which caused the death of his ten-year-old daughter â€" and his brother. As well as grappling v, ith the lioness, as part of his act at a French circu.s, he puts his head in her mouth, persuades her mate to take a piece of meat from between "his lips and lick his face. During the war Jim Roose was a prisoner. His brother managed the show for him, and his daughter t:sed 10 come and go in the cages ar.d play happily with the lioness, v.-ho returned her affection. But one day the little girl's hair was bleached, .Slie entered the cage as confidently as ever â€" but the lion- ess failed to reco.tjnize her. Mis- taking her for a stranger, the beast leapt . , , and within a few nioments the little girl was dead. Some time later the lioness sav- aged Jim's brother, who also died from his injuries. When Jim came back from the war he grimly re- solved to carry on the show in the true circus tradition. He re-trained the lions and now tries to forget that the lioness was the killer of his Icved ones. The rum-aiid-brandy method of catching is being used in New South Wales, where rabbits arc made drunk and then gathered up. Amatcur hockey in Southern On- tario is in a rather bad way, and it i.sn't â€" as some allege â€" beciuse the rising generation prefers to take its physical exercise via radio or tele- vision. The condition is caused simply by the scarcity of proper playing surfaces. * * * We recall one "crooshi,tl" game down in Ottawa many years ago when the Toronto St. Pats upset the highly favored .Senators with the players practically skating on bare boards, and a weird hockey spectacle it was, at that. But, by aiid large, a certain amount of ice is necessary if the "world's fastest sport" is to be a success. * * * And, of recent years, the weather- man has been clean neglecting to provide natural ice in reasonable quantities over a very large section of this fair province of ours. The result is that the kids in such sec- tions don't get the necessary prac- tice, so that big-league scouts â€" out to get the replacement material â€" now head north and west, and pay little attention to what was once the greatest breeding-ground on earth for hockey stars, * * It- Many Ontario centres have been attempting to combat this condi- tion by building covercd-in artificial ice arenas. But this appears to be a rather risky proposition. With building costs what they are today, the "nut," or original investment, is pretty steep, especially when the CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING A0EMT8 WANTED TO SELL Skin's Gardtn Tractori, verr profitable line.

It is the outdoor artificial rink. « » » Although new to Canada, this t.vpe of rink is by no means a Johnnj-come-lately. .-Vs far back as 1S89, there was one built in that tiear Paris, although you can't prove this by us, and the nuich pub- licized and photographed one at Rockefeller Plaza, New York, is also of this nature. * * ♦ The rink â€" that is to say the play- ing surface â€" consists of a polished concrete slab, and the ice-making is done once a week or so by a boost- er freezing unit, then kept in skat- ing condition by au.xiliiry units that are part of the plant. Of course, if the mercury drops low enough, natural freezing takes the place of artificial at a considerable saving, * * â- > W'e are not able to say â€" except approximately â€" just what the ac- tual cost would be, as comiiared to a regular type enclosed artificial ice arena. However, a committee from 01. e Southern Ontario community recently went into the matter, and this is what it found out, * ♦ • To build a complete, covered arena would co.^^t them anvwhcre from $80,000 to $125,000â€" figures far too high for tlicni even to con- sider at this stage. But they could have an outdoor affair of the kind we have been discussing for around $30,000 â€" with the "booster freezing unit" setting them back about ?35,000. * * • Even this would appc.ir to be pretty steep, but it isn't as bad a.i it looks at first sight. That's be- cause the aforementioned commit- tee found that there is a strong possibility that they wouldn't have to buy the booster freezing unit at all, .-Vs we understand it, these units are portable, and can he trav- elled around the country, visiting a number of places to do the neces- sary "new" freezingâ€" the perma- nent auxiliary units keeping the ice in proper condition between visits, * » * Now we wouldn't like anybody to get the notion that we're tryint; to peddle this idea in any way, shape or form. We don't even know the name of the people who make the rinks, or the freezing units. Our entire knowledge con- sists of what we have been told, or have read in the papers. Still, when it is said that no less than 10 of these outfits are going to be built in Toronto, and two in Hamilton, it would seem that they must have some merit. And we think there ate many places in Ontario that would do well to look into them before committing themselves to expenses they might later regret â€" or sitting back and grousing, ".\w, heck, the kid.s around liere are just too lazy to take an interest in play- ing hockey; they'd sooner go to the movies."
