Still, north and south do not figure in the proverbial lore of the Dutch. The saying must date from that early period when Dutch commerce still hugged the shuttled back and forth between. east and west, that is, the har- bors of the Baltic and Portugal.» For they called the trade with vthe countries around the Baltic Sea the eastern trade and that with England, France, and Por- tugal the western trade.

On present-day school maps the North Sea appears west of Holland, and the Zuiderzee, which means southern sea, ap- pears east; on the old maps their positions. are in dccordanee with their names. When a burgher of Leyden walks out of the city in the direction that the modern cartographer calls west, "he leaves it by a street called Noor- deinde (north end); The Hague counts among its chief thorough- _fares a Westeinde (west end) which in the modern school at- las is shown to run south; and the sea which the Dutch call Oostzee (east sea) is not to be looked for in the Orient but is none other than the Baltic.-- From "The Pageant of.Nether- lands History," by Adrian J. Barnouw. Ever since the beginning of the last war Canada's.farm im- plement industry has had .boun-- tiful years. During the war it -was armament that kept the fac-- tories busy on such a scale that farm machinery had to take sec- ond place. mT With the end of hostilities the industry was ready to swing into ° full production of . agricultural implements and took all possible advantage of the situation. Pro- ductivity increased to such an extent that 12 per cent more em- ployees produced 160. per cent more goods in the six years from 1945 to 1950. Profits Up : The industry, however, did not follow the sound old principle that with_reduced cost per unit - the selling price should be re- duced accordingly. Quite to the . contrary prices were jacked up - with the result that by 1950 the share of wages and salaries in the farm machinery dollar (at the plant) was down to 28.9 per cent from 42.4 per cent in 1945, while gross operating profits had . increased from 9.9 per cent in © 1945 to 16,8 per. cent in 1950, 'ac- cording to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. HA Caught in Squeeze , | To replace wornout machinery and to make up for the shortage of help farmers have been buy- ing heavily in the post-war years. They have paid cash and signed notes for the machines and impléments they simply had to have to get their work done and are deep in debt to the com- panies. : In 'the past 18 months they _ were! caught between 'the high ..Plain Horse Sense.. by BOB ELLIS ___ tify me getting." prices they had to pay for every little bit they were buying and the falling prices of their own products. Buying and selling, they were dealing with large cor- porations who carried on their businesses after the principle "I will get all the market will jus- Put. On' Pressure - The effects of this price and profit policy are. now becoming evident. The chickens are com- ing home to roost. The compan- ies have priced themselves out of the market and sales have fallen off to so low a point that already 4000 workers had to be dismiss- ed. This is bound to draw wider circles and will affect basic steel, rubber and others, causing unem- ployment .and in turn decreased consumption of farm products which means more surpluses and lower prices. Farmers might do well to put more pressure behind the de- mand of the Interprovincial Farm Union = Council, submitted on March 16, 1953, to the federal government for "either a parlia- mentary commission of enquiry on farm implement costs, distri- bution prices, ete.; or that an in- vestigation be: ordered by the combine investigation committee of these farm implement compan- ies' opérations." : This column welcomes sug- gestions, wise or foolish, and all criticism, whether constructive or destructive and will try to answer any question.

' the Gazette, a feature which was - Nowadays- most folks take sports pages -- and sports col- umns -- pretty much for granted, and many of the younger fans might find it hard to believe that there was a time, not too long ago, when sports news -- such as it was -- would be scattered throughout a paper instead of be- ing all bunched in one section. * - * Here in Canada we give the late H. J. P. Good -- father of the lamented former sports wri- ter Charlie Good credit for being the first to put all the sports items together. Over in the States the pioneer was Ri- chard Kyle Fox, who emigrated from Ireland to New York backs in the 1870's, practically penni- less, and took a job selling ad- vertising for the Wall Street Journal and then for the National Police Gazette. The latter ---- printed on pink paper as.:some -oldsters will recall -- was on the verge of bankruptcy and Fox, by taking shares of stock instead of cash, by 1876 was boss of the affair. - * Ld 'Ensconced 'as publisher, Fo x revolutionized the Police Gazette .. with a series of daring ideas, at least two of which became ems blazoned in history. First, he hired several oufstanding artists, who adorned his stories with some of the most magnificent oy A SBITC . talgic pages of "The Pictorial His- "time like gander-pulling, skittles, woodcuts ever to appear in a ° periodical. These were the fore- runner of the fabulously success- ful modern fabloid (picture newspaper). * .* * . Next, Fox had a hunch people... really were interested in sports, despite. the highly disorganized state of athletic activity: He asta- blished a regular sports section in then totally unknown in the daily. newspapers and magazines . L] L] Prize fighting was illegal in 1880. Yet when a match was made between Joe 'Goss and heavyweight champion Paddy Ryan that year, Fox assigned several artists and reporters to give the fight full coverage. * LJ] . Fox's hunch paid off handsome- ly. After the big bout, the Police Gazette had the only full account, replete with vivid ringside pic- tures which attracted more at- tention than the Garfield - Han- cock pradidential campaign! For weeks, the Qazette presses kept rolling to fill the demand, Cireu- t ---- & lation doubled . . : and Fox prov- ed in dollars and sense that the people were hungry for sports news. : : * * EF "To competé: for circulation, other journals began - assigning reporters to sports events. From the ranks of these men came the sports experts and the columnists. But it was Fox and the Police Gazette who fathered the mo- dern sports page.

Sullivan and Jake Kilrain. That blistering fight-to-a-finish went 75 rounds, lasting 2 hours and 16 minutes before Sullivan kayoed his foe to win the $10,000 National Police Gazette championship belt plus the $20,000 stakes. This bout is pictured in the Durant-Bettman volume, and listed as the only existing photograph of a bare- knuckle prize fight. * - - . Baseball and America are as closely associated "as ham and eggs, or apple pie and coffee. Yet the "Pictorial History" points.out that there is only one purely American sport -- that's basket- ball. This game, which has sup- planted soccer as the most popu- lar sport in the world today, was the brain-child of oné man, the Canadian Dr, James A, Naismith.
