Hipel, of Preston, Ont., will enter’ the cabinet, of Premier M. F. Hep- burn as minister of labor. The portfolio has been administered by the minister of lands and forests since death of the former labor minister, Hon. M. M. McBride. Urges Nation To Take Over Food Control Virtual nationalization of the food industry of Great Britain, anti the creation of boards to en- sure low prices in the interest of public health, are advocated in a sensational document which has been drawn up by a body of emin- ent scientists and public adminis- trators who have been studying the grave effects of malnutrition in the country. Famous Scientists The memorandum, issued by the Committee Against Malnutrition, points out that the majority of people of Great Britain at present cannot afford to buy certain es- sential foodstuffs. Among the famous scientists contributing to this memorandum, are Dr. Julian Huxley, secretary â-  of the Zoological Society; W. E. Le Gros Clark, Oxford professor of anatomy; A. St. G. Huggert, professor of physiology at London University; Sir F. Gowland Hop- kins, professor of bio-chemistry at Cambridge University, and V. II. Mottram, dietetic expert of Lon- don University.. Food boards, the scientists say, should be established under the control of a responsible cabinet minister tor control prices in such a way as to ensure supplies which are not at present ensured by the operation of the law of supply and demand. To Ensure Good Quality -7' The boards would also market these supplies through public con- cerns, thus ensuring low prices and good quality. It is argued that a steadily ris- ing demand for foodstuffs would encourage the producers to" be much more enterprising. It is also advocated that the Government make itself respons- ible for free dinners for all school children.

Coleman Lantern Defies Hurricane Hurricane winds exceeding 100 mileS Per hour cannot extinguish the light of a Coleman Pressure Mantle Lantern, according to tests conducted recently by engineers of the Cessna Aircraft Company of Wichita, Kansas’. A standard Coleman Gasoline Lantern, Model No. 242-B, was Placed in a wind-tunnelâ€"a device designed to create winds of any desired velocity for use in the test- ing of airplane parts and construc- tion. The lantern then was sub- jected to a gale of 105 miles per hour. Mr. Tom Salter, the aircraft engineer in charge of the test, gave the Coleman Lamp and Stove Co. an affidavit statihg that the Cole- man Lantern would give depend- able lighting service under this terrific wind velocity. The extreme power of a bundred- mile-an-hour xvind can be better ap- preciated when it is remembered that a genuine hurricane, as offi- cially defined by the Weather Bu- reau, is a wind “exceeding 75 miles per hour.” Newspaper readers will recall the many hurricanes which have bat- tered the state of Florida. In 1935 a hurricane which struck Florida literally demolished almost every structure â-  within its thirty-mile path. More recently, ou Sept, 1 of this year, newspaper reports de- scribed a violent typhoon which battered Tokyo, Japan. According to reports, the typhoon “left in its wake vast destruction across East- ern Japan.” Hundreds of people were injured and many were kill- ed. Railroad and communication services were paralyzed. And the wind, said by: the weather. bureau to be the worst in 30 years, was blowing 75 miles per hourâ€"or 30 miles per-hour less than the wind resisted by this gasoline,lantern. Coleman engineers explain that the Coleman Lantern’s ability, to, withstand high winds is due to the manner in which the heat resisting glass globe is designed to deflect moving air away from the lighted mantels. Openings which admit air for combustion are sized and placed in such a manner as to prevent di- rect blasts of air from striking the point of illumination. This same globe protects the Coleman Lantern from insects and from rain, making it the greatest outdoor light. (Conducted by Professor Bell of the O. A. C., Guelph) 1. Q. ‘Will you please advise me if lime would take the place of fer- tilizer (second place) when prepar- ing the spring soil for seeding, and also on the corn soil, and would it benefit the hay and pastures? I do not feel that 1 can afford to buy commercial fertilizer, and I have heard lime is a good substitute, and much cheaper. I have been told my land heéd-s lime.” â€" W. C. M. of Liricolmn Co. A. Regarding the use of lime 1 would say definitely that lime will not take the place pf fertilizers, any more than a horse will take the place of a dairy cow. Lime is used, to sweeten the soil; fertiliz- ers carry plant constituents such as Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid, and Potash, none of which are carried by lime. If your soil needs lime to correct its acidity, lime is what you must add because fertilizer will not cor- rect soil acidity. - What you had better do is . to send a sample of your soil to the Department of Chemistry, and let us test it and advise you, what treatment the soil requires! In sending the sample, 1 would sug- gest that you send about a cupful in a small cotton bag. -â-  Q. “Last Fall I sowed some Fall Wheat along with fertilizer. The Wheat was treated and stood too long, and it did not come up. Will the fertilizer be of any value to any other grain that T will sow this Spring on the same land? Or would It" be advisable to sow the Spring Wheat on the same land? Is there more than .one kind of Spring Wheat, and if so, which kind is the hestJt H. .1. of Haltoh Co. A, There is ho reason why Spring- Wheat, or any other Spring grain sown on your Fall YVheat field should not benefit from the fertili- zer, that was applied to your Fall Wheat where the Wheat did' not come up. 1 would suggest tha| in sowing the spring grain ybu fol- low the same direction as when the Fall Wheat was sown. It is general- ly found that fertilizer drilled in with grain gives better results than the same fertilizer broadcast. This is because it is concentrated near the roots of the young " growing crop. Hence, iw you drill along the same drill rows as followed when Fall Wheat was sown, in all prob- ability you: ’ will strike thé same drill rows in a great many instanc- es, whereas, if you cross the rown, the benefit will occur simply on the four corners where the drill rows cross. What Science * Is Doing * TWO NEW SATELLITES The Carnegie Institution of Washington has announced that, two new satellites of the planet Jupiter have been discovered by its Mt. Wilson Observatory in Cal- ifornia. Jupiter, largest of- the planets, was the firsts heavenly body to be studied with a, telescope. Galileo, with the first crude instrument, a wooden tube fitted with lenses and only about two feet long, discover- ed four Satellites of the planet in 1610. Subsequently five others were found. The satellites announc- ed today have been designed, as “Numbers. 10 and 11.” “MIDGET SUN” PERFECTED Perfection of “midget sun” in the form of a tiny mercury lamp that produces from a thread of metallic vapor no larger than a toothpick light twelve times as brilliant as the ordinary 1,000-watt incandes- cent filament lamp and gives three times the: amount of light for the same current consumed, was an- nounced simultaneously by the General Electric Company and the Westinghouse ..Electric and Manufacturing. Company. The mer- cury vapor'attains a brilliance of about onevfifth of that of the sun’s surface. The ne»: lamp is expected to re- volutionize lighting practice in â number of fields. Green, Brown, Blue For Men This Autumn And Winter You Will See .Fresh Tones in All.of Them; Shirts To Blend What will be the fashionable colors for men’s suits this autumn and winter? And what will be, the correct accessories tes accompany them? The British Color Council has answered these questions. Blue, brown and green are sug- gested for suits. Two new blues are introduced, a dark shade re- flecting the blue-green of the sea; college blue; a darker but warmer tint. Blue-green is indicated for the lining of both. Brown also has two fresh col- ors: a warm, deep shade named Barbadoes; a darker tone describ- ed as Indies brown. A lining matching the former, suits both cloths. The council further spon- sors regent green, a deep shade with lining in accord. Selecting the Right Tie Which are the most attractive shirts to go with These, suits? For the blue group, apart from white, there are three shades of blue and a gray that matches the sea gull’s feathers. To accompany brown kits, we have cream, ivory, parch- rhent, and pine-frost,1 the last a light green. Green outfits require shirts in gradations of that color, medium gray with a touch of green, silver-grey. Men are keen on tics and the council gives guidance to becom- ing selections. For- blue suits, chocolate, Oxford blue, peony red and purple, navy find favor. Cham- pagne, cream, maroon and peat brown represent "suitable ties for brown kit. While silver grey, bot- tle green, Cambridge blue and gold pass the test with green clothes. This should help those who give ties as presents. , SOUND AFFECTS VISION Sound improves the visibility of some colors and interferes with the seeing of others. Results of dn : in- vestigation on a single color were reported by P. A. Yakolev. of the Helmholtz Institute, of Ophthalmol- ogy in Moscow, in 1935, A. report of a more extensive series of experi- ments is communicated by him in â-  “The Journal of the Optical Society of America.” There are important implications in these-experiments, not only phy- siological, but psychological as well. Interdependent relationships between taste and smell are well known. These Russian experiments indicate that there are similar re- lationships between hearing and seeing. According to them a picture seen in silence will have its color values changed when viewed to the accompaniment of sufficient noise.
