Page 6 The Haileyburian Thursday, June 25, 1959 Across the Kitchen Table By MRS. MAC One hears so much these days about '"'do-it-younself' projects and "making something out of some- thing else" such as a dressing table stool out of a backless chair, : or a garden table out of an old treadle sewing machine stand, that it really seems rather nice to hear of something being used for what it was intended and I really giggled about this little poem which I clipped out of ithe Christian Science Monitor: SPICY ADVICE Nan bought an old spice cabinet _ mellow and fine, Her friends were all envious ("Wish it were mine"), Said Ruthie, "I'd plant it with ivy and things." Said Ann, "It is perfect for trink- ets and rings." "Oh no, not for me,' who was cute, "Yq fill it with paper clips, pens and desk loot.' D'you know what Nan did with- it, in spite of advice? She used it, of all things, to hold --spice! ' put in Rose * Last Thursday I went up to see Mr. Pickard's iris blooms. To \say they were beautiful, is putting it mildly. They are (breath-itaking. The most marvelous shades and colors, many of them 'that he his raised himself firom seedlings. Afiter admiring 'the iris, Mrs. Pick- ard showed me her African Violet collection and they were just as beautiful in their class as Mr. Pickard's iris. The multitude of looms on them ttesitify to the lov- ing care they receive. = Seale Sathorn Isn't June a lovely month? But then isn't 'any month a lovely month?

And there is the joy of finding in the morning, fresh with dew, ithe first rose bud bursting into bloom. It's so nice too, to waken just as the sky is beginning to turn a rosy pink 'and hear the birds in the 'tree outside the window, singing its heart out in a song of praise. Of course I didn't say anything abou! getting up at that time of morning. it?s wonderful to go back 'to sleep with the bird's music in your ears knowing that you do not have to | get up for another hour or two. June is Dairy Month in Canada "Make Dairy Foods Daily Foods' is 'the theme adopted by the Cana- dian Dairy Industry for the most intensive sales campaign in its his- tory, during the month of June. In addition to special advertis- ing by processors 'during the month of June, the Dairy Council is making over one million copies of dairy food recipes available to consumers through tthe retail food trade, Special programs featuring the project will,/be undertaken at the local level from coast to coast. In a statement addressed to the President of The National Dairy Council, Prime Minister Diefen- baker observed 'that-- "This promotion shows enter- prise on the part of the Canadian dairy industry and a realization that in these days of stiff competi- tion it is not enough 'to find a good product--you have to find a mar- ket for it too. "Dairy products are not only the foundation of much of Canada's farm economy, but a valudble part of the national diet as well. In- creased consumption by Canadians of their farm-produced foods is the best assistance we can give to the agricultural industry of ithis coun- try." : The need for an expanded sales drive by the Industry becomes ap- parent when it is realized that an all-time record milk production in excess of 18,000,000,000 pounds, about 1,000 pounds per person, is estimated for the current year. At the start of the dairy year, May 1st, surplus stocks of some 50,000,000 pounds of butter and more than 60 million pounds of skim milk powder were hanging over the do- mestic market. Butter consump- tion has shown a sharp decline during the past year. The Canadian dairy processing and distributing industry is made up of several thousand small, me- dium and large companies. These include privately-owned compan- ies and voluntary co-operatives, the latter accounting for about 25 per cent of the total multi-billion pounds of milk processed in Can- Dahlia Blooms A Dahlian in bloom in June is the strange phenomenon re- ported by Jack Sutherland, an avid Cobalt gardener. Mr. Sutherland was working in his garden when he noticed that his Dahlia normally .a_ fall flowering plant, was developing good healthy blooms. Not being a gardening authority we are at a loss to account for this Perhaps some of the other green-thumb enthusiasts of the district can give us some as- sitance in explaining this. ada each year. The gross annual value of the Dairy Industry reaches a total of one billion dollars, making it one of the largest single industries in Canada. Dairy processors, manufacturers and distributors are spending more than $5,000,000 each year to dairy foods and expand 'the mar- set for the milk production of Can- ada's dairy farmers. Although fluid milk and butter together accounted for almost three-quarters of Canada's milk supply, fluid milk sales during 1958 'accounted for 48 per cent of dairy farm cash income, buiter 37 adventise and promote the sales of]. per manufacturing milk 9 per cent." Data published by the Canada Department of Agriculture show that the farmers' share of the con- sumer's dollar amounted to 77 per cent, cheese 6 per cent and;cent in the case of butter and 59 per cent for fresh fluid milk. These returns compare with 48 per cent for pork, 43 per cent for potatoes, 19 per cent for canned peas' and 13 per cent for bread.
