Britain Again Demands Fruit Southwestern Ontario Packers Export to United Kingdom As Markets Reopen He'd up tor, some considerable time due to the European war scare export movement of top quality ap- ples from Southwestern Ontario’s fruit belt has resumed and a num- ber of carloads are leaving .'Chat- ham, Port Lambton and Ruthven, says the Windsor Star. While the apple harvest as a whole has been light this year, some fairly large quantities of the prime grade fruit are being picked in Essex, Kent and Lambton coun- ties at present. Choice Cranberry Pippins, Kings, Jonathans and also Greenings are on their way to mar- ket in the Old Country. Want Canadian Apples The off season for many of the larger orchards in this area has had the effect of bringing smaller growers into line for export ship- ment. Several are exporting to Great Britain for the first time. It is believed that demand for Can- adian apples on the Old Country market is holding up well. Hemisphere Reaps Biggest Crop In World's History ROME â€" The northern hemi- sphere this year will harvest the largest wheat crop in history, the International Institute of Agricul- ture estimated last week. The Institute forecast a crop of 105.600.000 metric tons for the area. In 1937, the harvested crop was 91,- 700.000 metric tons, while the re- cord 1928 world wheat crop amount- ed to only 109,000,000 tons. European production this year, exclusive of Russia, according to the Institute will total 48,000,000 metric tons, while North American growers should reap a 35,700,000 ton crop. The institue estimated the Asiatic production exclusive of Rus- sia and China, at 18,700,000 tons and African at 3,200,000 tons. Aviation In Canada Gains 3,000,000 More Miles Covered lit Commercial Flights in 1937 Than in 1936 Commercial aviation in Canada lilt a new high during 1937, when 10,626,630 miles were flown as com- pared with 7,803,942 miles in 1956 and 7,522,102 miles in 1.935. In these flights 2,004,087 ton miles were carried in 1937 compared with 1,- 164,617 in 1936. Freight and express accounted for 1,891,674 ton miles in 1937 and mail for 112,413 ton miles. This compares with 1,075,029 ton miles of freight and express and 89,588 ton miles of mail in 1936. To Mining Areas The principal activity of commer- cial aircraft in Canada during the year 1937 was the carriage of the freight, passengers and mail to the mining fields in the more remote parts of the country. The freight carried consisted largely of mach- inery and supplies for mines in the northern part of Quebec, Ontario and the western provinces, and the new mining areas have been open- ed up in the Northwest Territories due to the introduction of aerial transportation, and many regions rich in mineral wealth are now within a-few hours flying time from large centres of population. Scat- tered throughout most of the min- ing country of the North are num- erous lakes which provide suitable landing for aircraft with floats in summer and with skis in winter. ) Apart from its importance as ' a means of transporting men and the supplies to remote mining areas, the airplane is used to advantage in Canada for forest fire prevention work and in mapping.'

She tried tablets. She tried pills. All without avail. Only Kruschen could help her. “T used to get very bad head- aches,” she writes. “No tablets or pills of any kind could relieve them. One morning, casually, I tried Kruschen Salts in a glass of hot water. J continued taking it, but I have not had one of those awful headaches since. Kruschen suits me better than anything else. I find it very good.” â€" (Mrs.) L.À.W. Headaches can nearly always be traced to sluggishness of the kidneys., liver and intestines, and to the unsuspected retention in the svstem of stagnating waste material which poisons the blood. The numerous salts in Kruschen stimulate the internal organs to healthy, regular action so that no cloo-gip" waste is allowed to col- lect. Your inside is kent clean and serene. And that is just how Kruschen Salts brings ouiek and lasting relief from headaches. Will Study Chinese Women in Battle Mrs. Charlotte Haldane, wife of. Professor J. R. S. Haldane, fam- ous British scientist, has gone to China where she will spend six weeks studying the work of wom- en in the fight against Japanese aggression.' “One of my aims,” says Mrs. Haldane, “is to visit women’s regi- ments1 and battalions. They have their Joans of Arc and Florence Nightingales. When 1 return, 1 in- tend to Write a book about them, and I shall speak at a number of meetings. “Horrors don’t get people down. They make them more determined. 1 am going to show how women can help in this resistance.” What Science * Is Doing * UNIVEERSE MAY BE STATIONARY Dr. Edwin Hubble, noted astron- omer who has been reaching stag- gering distances into space with the world’s largest telescope, try- ing to learn the secret of the uni- verse, reports: “The results, at the moment, do seem to favour the concept of a stationary universe, but they do not definitely rule out the possibil- ities of an expanding universe. The judgment is probably reserved until further information becomes avail- able.” TO CURE PNEUMONIA Pneumonia, “king of diseases,” may be conquered through a new laboratory product developed by experiments with sulphanilamide, Sir.

The HOOK SHELF By ELIZABETH EEDY ‘WITH MALICE TOWARD SOME' By Margaret Hulsey It’s on the “Best Seller” list, and everybody’s reading this book that lutes the hand across the sea (if we may be allowed to mix oUv me- taphors). A great many things that we knew vaguely to be wrong or funny about the English have been caught and bottled by the author so they can’t get away. And there we have them! Margaret Halsey is the wife of a young Ph.D. who went to England on an exchange professorship. And while her husband taught, the au- thor saw life as it was being lived in a small English village. A nice, sweet little book of essays about the English countryside should therefore have been the result. In- stead this demure lady, possessed of a superlative sense of humor and leaking acid at every pore, care- fully worked at an etching of Eng- land that will cause a war between the two English-speaking nations i£ it gets into the right hands. “With Malice Toward Some.” By Margaret Halsey, illustrated by Peggy Bason, 278 pp. Toronto: Mis- sion Book Co. $2.25. The new product is called M and B 693. “All work on it has indicat- ed a specific curative effect in the case of pneumonia,” he said. “It will not cure all cases because the most patients come to the doctor only when near death.” Experi- ments showed that in 100 cases studied 27 untreated patients died. Only eight treated ones died, and of these six died in the first week be- fore the drug could demonstrate its curative power. FROZEN FISH REVIVED Pish and frogs, both cold blooded animals, can be frozen solid and re- vived repeatedly without apparent ill effects if electrical currents are used in the reviving process, Dr. L. C. Ravail, of New York, reported at the recent annual meeting of the American Society for Biophysics and Cosmobiology. One of the fish had been frozen more than one hundred times, in some of the ex- periments staying in the liquid air for three hours. The requisites for keeping fish alive in repeated tests are quick freezing and thawing out under the influence of a high frequency elec- tric current. SAYS FEVER HELPS In speaking of fever in Urology and Cutaneous Review, Dr. F. H. Redewell says: “Fever is a process which aids: in the removal or destruction of in- jurious substances which get into the body. It results in an increase in leucocytes (the white corpuscles or disease fighters in the body), an increase in the rate at which all the body processes work, and a great increase in elasmatoctes (the large blood cells) the increase re- sistance to infection, in the blood, in the lymph (the other portion of the circulation) and all tissues of the body. To-day, instead of reducing the temperature, it is not unusual for physicians to use methods â€" elec- tricity or others â€" to increase the temperature of the body thus act- ually increasing its fighting or dis- ease resisting forces. Will Mark Grave . Of ‘Beautiful Joe’ Meaford Women’s institute P|an to Immortalize Dog Made Famous Through Writ- ings of Marshall Saunders Monuments and plaques have been erected around the world to great statesmen, famous cows and important historical events. Now the Meaford Women’s Institute plans to mark the grave of “Beau- tiful Joe,".a dog. Tq Erect A Fountain Many years ago a mongrel dog lived his span and died in Meaford. During puppyhood his ears were clipped. He was “just plain, dog.” Finally he found love and care so abundant that to cover up his mis- fortune and the tragedy of his ap- pearance his mistress named him “Beautiful Joe.” Miss Saunders wrote about him, in the book 1 Beautiful Joe,” and now the Women's Institute will im- mortalize him further, A stone will mark thé resting place and. a foun- tain will be erected where1 all the dusty, weary dogs will be sure of a refreshing drink. Caught a Doe In His Arms There’s a new game in Alfcoma districtâ€"home of the famous Al- goma wolf â€" catching deelr by hand. Robert Agnew, cott^ging at Harmony Bay on the Bajtcha- wana road, near Sault Ste. Marie, saw a two-year-old doe in aJ bay 75 feet off shore. About that time the department of highways road grader came along with Ed. Labelle and Max Wannamaker. Labelle took off his shoes and socks, rolled up his pants and waded into the water. NOT ALL ROSY MEMORIES A bunch of lovely roses graced the table, in my hall, And oh, the memories they brought to those who came to call! An older woman sighed as she, re- called the days of yore; When in her own small garden, she grew roses by the score. A maiden saw a lover, who has sent her flowers bright â- â€" An old man viewed the grave of his adored one, passed from his sight. Each mind saw something differ- ent, smiles, tears and sighs, yes, all Were found in those same roses, on the table in my hall!

R. Routledge told the jury. “We will have accidents unless some protection is given. If there had been Tenctirg at the track; it" would have controlled the- running horse,” he declared.
