But then, how * can it be otherwise. New houses are definitely needed, and they ~ can't be built in mid-air. But it is not only for houses that land is required. Each new commun- ity that is opened up must also "have roads, stores, schools, gas= 'stations, parks, theatres and last but not least, churches. However;--farm acreage taken over for such projects cannot be nearly as great as that which is sacrificed for the erection of huge industrial plants, and for the construction of super-high- ways. It has worried us for some time. Travel the new Barrie _ highway for instance How much farm land was taken over forts construction?" Or the new Ford plant -- taking in some of the best. farms inh the district. Now chain stores are building on the outskirts of many. cities -- big stores, complete - with parking lots. Almost every city is push- ing its outskirts farther out in- to. the -country. Real estate agents are having a field day among nearby farmers, who, attracted by good, -cash offers, and having: in 'mind -the decline in farm produce prices, are usually ready to make a deal. Of course, if farm property is re- quired by the Department of Highways, the have much say in it anyway. And think of the land that must be' taken over where a clover=" - leaf is necessary!. Modern highways follow a * straight line, insofar as that is possible, so there can be little choice as to what farm land is taken over once a survey is completed. But such is not the case with industrial plants. They can. be here, or they can he there -- according to the best interests of the company. Whe- ther the land required is highly productive or not makes little difference. : Py But I wonder . . there be some form of control governing the sale of agricul- tural land for industrial pur- poses? Surely there is plenty of waste land that might be used to good advantage instead of being left to grow. weeds. That farmer doesn't - : couldn't 3 much productive: land has al- ° ready been sold to industry is lit- © tle short of a crime. Can't some- thing be done to put the brake on before it is too late -- before we wake up and wonder what happened to all our good high- way farms? Not only puichased land is affected; grading and building highways indirectly affects other farm land, stilt in production -- . changing the natural drainage of the land on either side of-the __60__pullets last week, For the __be more excited : the like, havé no realization of cases younger men are holding down jobs and trying to farm at the same time. But even these farms should not be sacrificed to the bulldozer. The fertltity* is. there, and should. the time ever come -- and with increased population it well may -- when farm produce is miore urgently needed, then these farms can be put into peak production once again -- if help is availaple and returns for farm produce make it possible. 'Well, having got that off my - chest I'll -go out' and find out how production has. been going on' around here. We imported first few "weeks looking after them is fun.

I wouldn't want to raise turkeys for that same reason. ° THE LEGAL MIND Once a ranch hand was up for trial for horse thieving, and they couldn't find twelve jurors wiling to give him: a.fair shake in. court. The judge roared, - "There'll be no hanging in this town while I represent law and order! Round up twelve lawyers and herd'em into the jury box." By combing the, surrounding country they managed to find twelve men with law degrees of sorts, and the long-delayed trial got 'under way. The townsfolk expected a quick verdict of "guilty," and so did the judge, -but the: twelve lawyers stayed locked in: the jury room for eight solid hours. Finally the judge summoned them and de- manded, "Haven't you danged_| fools decided- on a verdict yet?" ° "Heck, Judge," demurred- one of the jurors, "we got our verdict in three minutes.
