Yi # Fah 9, 1930) ' ---------------------- LACK OF ORGANIZATION ™* oi5 "rs" Pag roo {Had to Return Howe Island | _Declared . the Greatest | Handicap to the Dairy ! Industry. E. H. Stonehouse, president of the } 2. Passengers and 8eek Shelter. Up until Thursday afternoon at 30 o'clock, the steamer Wolfe 1s' Ontario Milk Producers Association |lander, which was due to arrive at and of the National Dairy Council of | Canada, was in the city, Thursday, on his way to Oléssa where he ad- dresses a méeting of dairymen in the evening. He was to have spoken at Verona Wednesday night, but the! meeting was postponed. When interviewed by a representa- tive of the Whig, regarding the dairy industry, Mr. Stonehouse stated that the greatest handicap to.the industry at the present moment was inade- quate organization for the purpose | of distribution. This he said, has | got to be changed for the failure of the governments to make pasteur- izing of milk compulsory befare dis- tribution in the cities, is nothing less |! than criminal, When asked if the conditions in Kingston fell within this category, he sald that it was unfortunately so, and the people were exposed to epidemics of disease. All milk produced in the district should be handled at a central depot and pateurized before being offered for consumption. But {ts not here only that the dairy industry suffers. The tendency of the dairy farmer in recent years has been to breed for production while overlooking quality, so that we now have the testing qualities lower then they should be, about 3 per cent. being the common test, whereas, the 4 per cent cow is the ideal one. For this reason, the Ayrshire breed pro- mises better results in the rougher parts of the province than the Hol- stein, The Ayrshire will thrive on land where she has to forage for her food, while the Holstein must be looke dafter or it will go down rapid- ly. The value of milk products pro- duced within the province this year was $100,000,000, an excess over last year of $30,000,000. This splendid result was due to the pre- vailing high prices, rather than to any actual increase in production. The prices for milk and cream were high throughout the season, while cheese, the basic product of the whole dairy industry, brought a high pri¢e. But if Canada is to hold her pre-eminent position in competition with other countries there are sever- al things that demand our very close ateation. First we have got to im- prove our methods of production and marketing. We must produce a sanitary article, and Improve the butter-fat content which has been falling off for some time. This can only be done by work'ng along I'nes that will give an ileal strain ol eat- tie for the local Jand coaditions. The ing to the campaign for greater pro- duction and we now see the result of the mistake. The two chicf factors entering into the dairy industry are home con- sumption and: the export demand, and we must look after the market- ing if we would obtain all that we should. The export prices have much to do w.th the home market prices, but we can improve the local demand by educating the people to |. increase their consumption of milk, eream and cheese. The National Dairy Council has come to regard home consumption as the chief thing in the industry and we have got to improve our methods of distribution. In Canada, the consumption of milk * {370 pints per liem, per person, while the consumption of cheese is less than 3 Ibs, per person for the whole year. Our people have not learned the real value of dairy products in the dietary, and it Is perhaps our own fault for not improving our methods of production and distri- bution. Mr. Stonehouse will deal withall phases of the dairy industry, and he has much to say regarding the manu- facture of 'cheese. He would build larger and fewer factories per mile, and provide better housing accomo- "dation for the oheese makers. EX-MAYOR NEWMAN ! IS MOST INDIGNANT Olaims That therOity Council of 1919 Was Quite 0 "The finances of the city were not wrecked by the council of 1919," in- _ dignantly declared ex-Mayor H. W. Newman on Thursday, in referring to the statement of City Treasurer Bar- | jclation on Tuesday evening. "The city's money was spent on civic works solely, and not one cent of it was wasted. It is represented by perman- ent work, and the city treasurer knows it." 2 bd - Ex-Mayor Newmdn gives credit to all that the present year's council bas done, but sees no reason why any reflections should be cast upon its essors. He considers the state- ment merely as an attempt to make cheap capital for the coming munici- hp election, and the statements ould not be taken seriously by any one, he says. The administration of 19)}9 was distinguished by the most efficient, clean and honest discharge of the duties entrusted to the council and mayor, says Mr. Newman. Returns to Law. .

President of United States Shows Effect of Strain. Gradual improvement in the con- dition of President Wilson, whose {llness for the last eleven mont.is fre- quently has caused his medical ad- visers to worry over the possibility that he would never fully be restored to health, is seen in the authorized statement from Dr. Cary T. Grayson, the President's physician, that Mr. Wilson is again back to his normal weight of 179 pounds. * Dr. Grayson would not admit that he was wholly satisfied 'with the pro- gress made by the White House. pa- tient, though he professed gratifica- ion at the improvement noticeable 'n the President. In an effort to accelerate the re- covery of Mr. Wilson, Dr. Graysor has prescribed a dally program of 2alisthenics for the President.

Exercise his left arm by extending and withdrawing it. Climb stairs with a cane to exer cise his leg muscles. Shaves himself sometimes with a safety razor.
