THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE,; ONT. THURSDAY. OCT. 31', TO35 7 MOTOR SHOW EARLY THIS YEAR 1936 Models Will Be On Display In November Announcement has just been made by the Canadian Automobile Chamb. er of Commerce that the National Motor Show will be held in Toronto November 9-16, instead of in Jan. nary as in past years. This new move by the Motor In. dustry has been undertaken with a view to levelling off peaks and valleys of employment in this seasonal in. "All manufacturers are co.operat-ing enthusiastically in this plan," de. «lared J. L. Stewart, General Manager of the Canadian Automobile Chamber of Commerce, today. "It is our belief that, by advancing the beginning of n.w model production from the first of the year to the fall more constant employment, spread over more months, for workers directly or indirectly dependent upon automobile manufacture will result." New 1936 models of ail makes of automobiles will be presented at the National Motor Show, and the public may be assured of a brilliant and dramatic presentation." E.

Ask Your Doctor and Find Out Don't Entrust Your Own or Your Family's Well - Being to Unknown Preparations THE person to ask whether the preparation you or your family are taking for the relief of headaches is SAFE to use regularly is your family doctor. Ask him particularly about "ASPIRIN." He will tell you that before the discovery of "Aspirin" most "pain" remedies were advised again;t by physicians as bad for the stomach and, often, for the heart. Which is food for thought if you seek quick, safe relief. Scientists rate "Aspirin" among the fastest methods yet discovered for the relief of headaches and the pains of rheumatism, neuritis and neuralgia. And the experience of millions of users has proved it safe for the average person to use regularly. In your own interest remember this. "Aspirin" Tablets are made in Canada. "Aspirin" is the registered trade-mark of the Bayer Company, Limited. Look for the name Bayer in the form of a cross on every tablet. Demand and Get "ASPIRIN" i the a Leader-Post.) LONDON. Through the courtesy of Sheed id Thomson, of Hibernia Chambers, London Bridge, I had the opportunity of making a blind test on the tenderness and flavor of Canadian bacon as compared with Danish and Pol Eleven o'clock was just far enough away from an 8.30 breakfast for appetite keen enough to appreciate a meal and not ravenous make just anything taste good. The bacon was brought in on a big side dish, piping hot and just crisp enough, smelling invitingly. Which was which? I sampled first, Mr. Sheed second. We tasted and favored each piece in turn very thoroughly and carefully. The bacon was cut from the loin, that portion that comes at the end of the ham and beginning of the ribs, called in England "the coffee house cut" ■it!, i erely 1 After Mr. Sheed had finished, the expert who had brougnt the bacon :Well?" and looked at me. I pointed my choice, first, second and third; Mr. Sheed followed and the choice duplicated mine. Now turn to look at the expert and say, "Well?" He laughed and said, "your first choice is Canadian, your second Polish and the third Danish." free to confess there was not any great spread between the Canadian and the Polish, but to my taste, the Canadian was a little the Danish was distinctly inferior to both. This is considered by the trade the best form of test. Next we visited the sides from hich the cuts had been taken and ere Mr. Sheed pointed out the place where Canadian sides usually lacked, namely -- the cushion of lean on the back that should be deep and firm. This particular side was better in this respect than the average of Canadian, Mr. Sheed claimed, but even so it was not quite so deep as either the Polish or Danish. This being back bacon, which is so much eaten in England, this is a very important point. We next went down to Thames side, where a lot of bacon had been unloaded that morning ai several bales opened. Some of these sides had been badly butchered and two had actually a piece gouged out of the cushion, just where depth most to be desired. Other sides showed a fair depth of cushion but )t one of them quite so good as the e one seen upstairs. Otherwise, e sides were good and well set up. Discussing the whole subject with Mr. Sheed, he again emphasized the great need of Canada getting her hogs on the market at, say, six iths, but well finished at that age. He very properly took the that if one firm could turn out bacon on a blind cooked test that found superior to both Polish and Danish, others could do the r, and it was highly important for Canada's standing in the trade that it should be done. Am sorry to say that the bacon 3 both thought the best did not me from Western Canada but from Kitchener, Ontario. These remarks by Mr. Sheed should be considered :arefully by hog raisers in Western Canada, as he is regarded only a high authority on the subject of bacon, but as a fair and impartial judge of the product. SOIL SURVEY Economic Phases Of The Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Programme. comprehensive study to lend utilization in Saskatchewan and Alberta is being conducted as a part of the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation programme inaugurated by the Do-'on Government. The Economics Branch of the Dominion Department of Agriculture is responsible for the project which is being car-on in Saskatchewan in co-oper-i with the Department of Farm Management of the University of Saskatchewan. In Alberta, the Pro-incial Department of Agriculture actively assisting in the study. Joseph Coke, Chef of the Farm Management Division and Assistant Commissioner who is supervising the Dominion Government's partici->n in this undertaking, has just returned to Ottawa and reports that field work for this year is already completed. Detailed information has been secured from 850 farmers in n municipalities in South West-Saskatchewan, including such points as Chaplin, Coderre, Shamrock, Gravelburg, Lafleche, Wood Mountain and Glentworth. In Alberta, the area surveyed is in the th central part of the province I' surrounds Vulcan, Lomond, Wheat Centre, Retlaw, Barrons, Carmangay and Champion. Five hundred and thirty-four farmers in this district have co-operated in this tudy. In addition to data obtained from farms still in operation, considerable information has been secured regarding abandoned farms municipal records are being used to provide data on municipal eceipts, expenditures, tax arrears ind assessment of farm properties.

Approved by boards of WINDSOR SALT Tear Off and Mail Today In carrying on this subject, nomic analysis is being related to the soil survey which has been carried on in these provinces in previous years. Data are being secured on size of buildings, land tenure, crop yields and live stock production, farm receipts and expenses, cropping practices, live stock carrying capacity, indebtedness, operator's history, settlement of the area and 'farm abandonment. When these data have been analysed tne information obtained snould be a guide to the future policy of utilization land in these areas. This study is the first of its kind to be carried on in Canada and it is anticipated that other areas will be included next year. Information regarding the economic farms located on different types is essential to an appraisal of the efficiency of methods and prac-_ tices adopted by farmers and the possibility of obtaining a satisfactory living from farms located in such areas, together with the practices which might enable farmers to continue to farm such lands. As yet, no conclusion can safely be dra^n from observation made. It is recognized too, that any policy which might arise as a result of such studies would largely be put into effect by provincial governments, but before any policy is possible, facts regarding the situation are essential. The study is to provide such information. In Saskatchewan, the work is being directed by Dr. W. Allen of the Department of Farm Management, University of Saskatchewan while in Alberta, G. H. Craig of the Economics Branch, Dominion Department of Agriculture is in charge. New York Publisher Weds Sylvia Sidney - Syli l Sidn< tite, dark-haired film star, and Bennett Cerf, New York publisher, were married by Superior Judge Marvin T. Phelps in Cerf's hotel suite.

Not for a long time have there been so many showers, such frequent publication oi banns, and so many fluttering conferences over trousseaus. District news is frequently concerned with the doings of Cupid, who is shooting his arrows with speed and accuracy. The fact is that the weddings which are causing such a bustle around the farms are a symptom of the times. Young farmers are still living up to their proverbial reputation for caution. They are noc prone to take great chances like their city cousins, nor are they marrying to get on reliet. They have seen a change come over agriculture. Cupid's visit to the farm is coincident with the return of prosperity.--Hamilton Spectator.

Beach Thomas called in the London Spectator for information concerning induced dormancy in vegetation. While traveling in northern India one of his pondents found that the nati deners half exposed the ro their roses to the air in the hot, dry •season, thus checking their growth which otherwise would wear them out. Sir William recalled that Africa rose bushes are dug up and laid in dark places for considerable periods. Not only does this give the bushes rest, but it is asserted it strengthens them against certain fungi. The notes on this topic brought prompt response from an authority on the subject, Ronald G Hatton, Director of the Imperial Bureau of Fruit Production, who wrote to the Spectator a -letter in which he said in many parts of the British Empire "the successful establishment of commercial orchards of such temperate fruits as apples and pears is ■seriously hampered by the difficulty of inducing the trees to rest sufficiently to produce a sizable crop." The Imperial Bureau of Fruit Production, which is situated at the East Mailing Research Station, Kent, w collecting information on the general subject of artifical wintering of plants Mr Hatton adds that in Banga-re, the capital of Mysore, in south-n' India, it is "confidently affirm-!" that the success of apple culti-ition is entirely due to induced dormancy in which exposure of the is practiced. He describes the of recently procedure thus: In the months ' October-November and April-May, when there is n0 risk of rain, the soil around the tree is removed to a distance of from two to four feet from the stem until the main lateral roots are exposed These roots are left uncovered, all water being withheld the leaves with and are removed by. hand-stripping One to two weeks later a compost of well-powdered dung or artifical manures and red loam in equal proportion is packed into the excavation above the roots. If there is no rain the trees are subsequently well irrigated about twice a week. Blossom appears in a fortnight and the fruit is ripe in five months. Four weeks after the harvest the treatment is repeated for the next crop. The usual life of a tree under this treatment is under twelve years but two crops of apples are obtained every year or fourteen months. that have been The marvels that have rought by cattle breeders in increasing the weight 0f steps fed for market and in bringing milch cows to high productivity have attracted wide attention. Not less marvelous triumphs have been won in the vegetable world. The greens grocer of today, thanks to modern transportation and scientific treatment of seed bed, plants, blooms and fruit', can offer at all seasons of the year'an array of delicious foods that far surpass those which his predecessor offered only a generation ago. -New York Sun. London Doctor Has New Theory D.oesn't Believe in Loading Child Up with Fats in Autumn There is a most interesting new theory out about autumn feeding for young children. A Harley street (London, Eng.) doctor has expressed the opinion that there is absolutely no •ound for the belief that one should art loading up a healthy young child ith fats immediately the autumn begins. s theory is that as in the spring the diet should now be light and not His ideal diet for children of from ne months to five or six years Is a whole cereal---either Scotch oatmeal, e wheat or maize--plus plenty of milk, vegetables and fruit. Be is particularly emphatic about proper amount of Vitamin B plus mineral salts for the child at this time of year. Vitamin B is the anti-neurotic vitamin, and is one of the most dir. ficult to retain in cooked foods. It is present in whole-grain cereals ---if they are healthily grown and very carefully prepared and cooked, and it is also present in all vegetables, milk and eggs. It is entirely destroyed by overcooking of vegetables and fee addition of soda and some salts.
