Big Increase In Hogs For Market Canadian Farmers Are Upping Production to a Great Extent That Canadian farmers are def- initely on .the road to increased hog production is indicated by the report of hog marketings for Oc- tober, 1939, There wére close to a half<million hogs marketed in the Dominion during the month, which the: for any one month on record. October Was Big 'Month - Increases in October, 1939, over "the corresponding month of 1938 were substantial and occurred in every province, Advanced produc- tion was to be expected in West- ern Canada where livestock hold- ings were seriously depleted due to drought in recent years and are now being brought back to nerm- al. The increases in Ontario and Eastern Canada, however, indicate a general trend towards more hogs. This is logical in view of the large supply and reasonable price of feed. The marketings according to provinces in October, 1939, were as follows, with the figures for October, 1938, in brackets: Mari- time Provinces 9,086 (7,973), in- erease 13 per cent; Quebec 56, 146 (35,010), 60 per cent; Ontario 205,581 (158,539), 29 per cent; 15 Manitoba 53,269 (23,893), 12: per cent; Saskatchewan 36,512 (8,875), 811 per cent; Alberta 128, 121 (61,419), 98 per cent; prand total 488,685 63 per cent increase, 59 Airlines Are Serving Canada Range from T.C.A. Down tq. Bush Operators with Single Plane Since thé licensing of airlines by the board of transpor: com- missioners came into effect Jast February 11, there have been 50 dicenses granted, it js learned at Ottawa, The licensed air services rang- ed from transcontinental organ- izations "like Trans-Canada- Air Lines down to small bush operat- ors with a-single plane. With commercial aviation in Canada expanding, airlines now come under the regulations of the board and must be licensed as a public carrier. The licensing . sys- tem is shared by the board and the civil aviation branch of the trans- port department, The advent. of war has made" little "difference in airlines' oper- ations. Licenses granted in Sep- tember totalled six, compared with seven in August. October licenses were . five, and there were two issued before Nov, 22, Basic rates for freight and pass- engers must be stated in the ap- plication "for a license, and the air rates are subject to regulation of the board if there is a com- plaint registered.

It has been said that most ha- "sion, says Dr. Morris Fishbein. Recently psychologists at Calum- bia University made a study of 20 people over a period of 20° days to find out just how much chewing served as a means of relaxation, studied first-while not chewing, se cond, while chewing ordinary chewing gum, and third, while al- lowing a flavored candy wafer to melt in the mouth, ot Decreased Ten Per Cent. It was necessary first of all to find some measurement of tension or strain. This was done by watch. ing each one of the persons ron- cerned throughout a working day and recording restless movements,- In many of these subjects it was found that tension as measured by decrease of restless movements was decreased about 10 per cent. during chewing. Y : Studies were also made to deter- pine whether indulgence In such a hahit had any relations to fat- fgue. Fatigue produces: increased psychologic tension. When people are tired from over-work and over- strain, the use of tea and coffee other hand, it "was found in these --sludies, chewing tended to de- crease tension, The amount of mug. cular effort involved is hardly sut- ficient to increase fatigue.
