MATHER, Divisional Manager b A I~ Iti~t. . ~ ZU V ~ "Native Indian girls ai North- ern British Columbia are grate- fui fan the protection and shelter affordcd by The Salvation Armyls new Home in Prince Rupert,"' de- clanes Colonel Anchibald Layman, Chief Sccnetany-ai The Army in Canada. He told how The Salva- tion Anmy, wonking with the De- pantment ai Indian Afairs, had been succcssful in strengtbening character and building moral among the native girls. The Home provides haven ion Indian girls visiting or taking cm- ploymcnt in the city. Pncviously, unfortunate conditions existed, Colonel said. Having no reput- able accommodation girls wene cxposed toalal the risks and haz- ards ai a part city. Unden the management ai Maj- or Mrs. Chambers, matron, the Home openates at capacity on a non-profit basis. Mrs. Chambers, who was stationcd at several Red Shield centres overseas, was ai- fectionately known ta tbousands ai Canadian servicemen as "Aunt Jenny." A widow, she wanted ta join ber five sons who were in Canada's armed farces. Naw she is becoming widely-known as a champion ai the native girl's best interests. The Salvation Anmy began its wonk among the natives ai North- cmn British Columbia in 1897, Col- onel Layman said. Then it was a matter ai taking religion ta the Indians and Alaskans. Since, the Colonel said, The Army bas taken education-it aperates day schools in remotè areas-and social wel- fare. The Prince Rupert Hame is the latest development and bas adequatcly proven its nccessity. Out ai funds subscribed ta the1 1947 Red Sbield Appeal which!1 begins on September 15 with a objective ai $ 1,000,000, it ishoe ta develop this and ather pro- jccts, the Colonel said. 1 stallation of new water tank Tod's corner.

DECLINE IN O-UTPUT In its survey of the production ai dairy products, the recent issue ai the Curnent Review oi Agri- cultural Conditions in Canada says that, while total milk pro- duction in May and June was slightly less in 1947 than in 1946, the 1947 production in July was 9ppnoximately the same as in 1946. Creamery butter production continues ta show some increase but increascd consumer demand bas kept stocks at a level just slightly bigher than a ycan aga. Cheese production continues ta decline. Production for the first seven months oi 1947 totalled 68 million pounds, or about 16 mil- lion less than in 1 946. Cheese tcndened ta the Dainy Pnoducts Board fon export to the United Kingdomn totalcd 184,811 boxes by August 8, 1947, as compancd with 552,210 boxes by the correspond- ing date ai 1946. With restrictions lifted, ice ceam production continues ta in- crease substantially aven 1946, with increases ai 50 per cent and 41.9 per cent in June and July, rcspectively. Concentratcd milk products anc alsa sbowing increase in production, and up to the end ai July, whole milk products wcrc up 2.8 per cent, and milk-by-prod- ucts wcne up 24.3 per cent aven the conesponding months 1946.

More than ever its "All-Dominion" character is ta be intensiiied. Thus plans begun in 1925 are broaden- ed ta make the Sced and Grain Show one independcntly Canadian in tone, scape, and standing, ne- lying on its own standards and merits. Tities as well as awands ta the chief winner in wbeat, bar- ley, and oats, like "Canada's Wheat Ace," will stress the ncw- er importance ai the Royal aim for aIl activities. An innovation ai the same trend is in modernized plant for dis- playing fanm pnoducts whieh re- quire cold stonage for good mer- chandising. With the aid ai the Dominion gavernment, extcnsivc, electric refnigeratian is being in- stalled.

Herdsmen's prizes for onderly neatncss are ta be more widely ai- fered sa that quite irrespective ai quality in the animaIs, the ap- pearance ai stalîs in aIl barns shahl be mare attractive ta the general public. In this way it is cxpect- cd that cventually the Royal shaîl serve as a world's mode loi live- stock exhibiting. Under the prcsidency ai James A. Northcy, wba was chairman ai the poultry committce for 20 Years and who bimself bas exhib- ited unbrokenly since the i irst F'air ai 1922, a dloser "'tic-up" is being made betwcen the large in- dustrialized commercial egg-lay- ing side ai poultry-keeping and the more bighly skilled mating and line-brceding results obtaincd by small 150-bird ilocks in over a hundred different types at the 'iancy" poultry show in the Up- Per Concourse. Outcomc of years of thougbt and patience wanted ao breed in a desined feather pen- cilling shown in the section will be an eye-opener, no doubt, to working farmers who in the pLrst have mast ncglected its merits.
