~- ~ - - - ~. -~ PAOLE EmGKT "0 CANADAN WYAUaSMAN, EWrN'fu MAR by £LOI£ CARRLtTHEIRS LUNNEZ MORE ABOUT HUGRENDEN Two replies came following9 our inquiry about. the en'gin o the name "Hughenden", ic 'was the narne given by Jsp Bnittain ta his house on Liberty Street North in Bowmanville. This spacilus brick resîdence was erected in 1885. From one reader we learned that there is a town of Hughen- den i Buckinghamshire, Eng- land, a few miles from High Wycombe. The Bittain family came from Lincolnshire, but it is possible they may bave had &orne connection with the town of Hughenden. Another possibil- ity is that the Miss Wilson whom Joseph Bittairin married as hi., second wife, came fromn there and the new home in Canlada was so namned out of sentiment. This la only con- jecture, and if anyone connect- ed with the Brittain family knows the stary of the name, it would be af interest ta us and a number of others. A reply also came from Mr. James P. Lavekin, whose fam- ily is an aid one in Clarke Township. Mr. Lavekin who riow lives in Toronto, la pres- dent of the Durham County Club there this ycar. He writes that "}Iughenden" was the riame of the country estate of Benjamin Disraeli, Eanl of Peaconsfield, who became Prime Minister of England. Thr elstate is now the property af the National Trust in England. Mr. Lovekin goes on to say that the house in Bowmanville and the town in Saskatchewan M MM M0N E Y AVAILABLE FOR MORTCACES Ralph S.

"On a world wldc scale li leas than two centuries, the in- dustny bas grown fnomn a few bundred tans af acid treateà bones (phosphate) ta millions af tans ai fertilizen ln 1956."1 As a district saiesman Mr-. Giibart has bis work divided into twa parts. The first is ta eall on dealens negulanhy ta dis- cuss pnices, new fentilizer de- velopmnents comopetitors' activi- ty and ta solicit new business. The second phase of bis work he termed as service or mis- sianary work at the customner level. This includes free soil testing, explaining the uses of new fertihizers ta indîvidual growers, crop inspection and many other mattens ai a senil technicah nature. Contributions The main contributions af fentihizer have been in better- ing the lot ai the farmen and pnaducing mare nutritiaus cropa. "A carnet pnoduced an pon land does not have the sarne nutnitional value ai a carrot pnoduced an rich fertile land. AIse animais raised on soil lacking major food elements, secandany food elements or even trace elements do not have the same vigar or health as animals raised on land in top production." Explaining how fentilîzers can add inestîmably ta a farm- er's profits, Mr. Gilbant said, "A wise investment ai one dol- lar can bring back a return o! .4 according to the latest 1956 report." In clasing the speaker re- minded the club of the ever growing scarcity o! food in the Fan and Middle East and how the increasing population of the Western Wonld could tax the present food production. "Our oad ta survival niay depend on crop produictioii with yields unheard of todiy. Should Ibis corne 1 feel confi- 1 dent agriculture chernicals wil play as in the past a very dra- matie part." Mr-. Gilbart was inti-oduced by District Convenor Walter De Geer and thanked by Forbe: Heyland.
