For the security of the home, Canâ€" adians, indeed, might render thanks to Heaven for the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans. The writer had recently visited Warsaw, where he witnessed one of the usual "test air raids." All traffic ceased in the busy city, lights went out and at "zero hour" there arose the distant din of the sirens and then the humming overhead of scores of airplanes. In fear of what might be the people wended their way homeâ€" ward in the darkness. And in key gities all over Europe, these "test air raids" are the usual run. The cabled article is penned in Antwerp, a port which is leading the world in outgo cargoes of all kinds of munitions and war implements, also inward shipments, the ultimate destination of which is Germany. Belgium munitions companies are reaping a harvest, a strange thing when looking back on what Belgium suffered from the last war. The writer may well be regarded «s an international authority, one of the most astute and judicial whose articles for years past have been ®nything but sensational. The introâ€" spection of Duranty cannot be disâ€" eounted, because it is backed up by the feverish piling up of armaments of every nation in Europe and as Duranty states, there are only two exceptions in these nations, whose atrming is attributed to the necessity of defence, and to the necessity of strength, either to maintain peace or to ward off invasion when and how war comes. Italy and Germany are the two exceptions, the inference beâ€" Ing plain that both are building up for acgression. (St. Catharines Standard) Walter Duranty, for years the resident correspondent of the New York Times in Moscow, sends a €opyright article to the Toronto Telegram in which the writer draws the conclusion that the only bright spot in the European picture for the aversion of war in 1937 is based on the hope and nothing but hope. The hiatus between the present and the war‘s ovtbhreak is attributed to the fact that the German machine will not be ready until 1937. The linguistic conssouences of an atmosphere surcharged with utterâ€" ances from broadcasters in all parts of the Empire and of various deâ€" grees of culture, cannot be too seriâ€" ously considered. English is the langâ€" vage of commerce and industrv, of civil and rcligious freedom; of the highest civilization so far known. Let us guard it when it goes out upon the air. WAr?. DANGER _ But today when the radio is breaking down all lincuistic barriers England listening to France, Canada listening to Germany, Europe to Am erica, we must be on our guard to preserve the priceless traditions of our English speech. A great reâ€" sponsibility rests upon those who broadcast the spoken word. Just as we are zealous for printed English vocabulary and ecnstruction, we must have like zeal for the spoken word which is broadcast upon the air. ' A proper appraisement of the Eng. lish language is much needed at the present time when the spoken word over the air is in some measure takâ€" Ing the place of the printed word. The printing press is to be given . much credit for standardizing Eng-‘ lish of the first class. Those re-’ sponsible for the printed word have made it a chief concern to conform | their speech to the highest standardsf of usage, and no newspaper, magaâ€". #ine, author or writer with a name departs from these standards. t best translation of the Bible, and the highest moral tone.

It centres around the butter | made in New Zealand and that made fln Denmark and the Irish Free State. It is well known that Danish and Irish butters have long held their own in the Old Country markets, and that ‘lato comers like New Zealand, Ausâ€" tralia and Canada have had to take second place. The reason for this is the system employed. Denmark and Ireland send their whole milk to the factory where it is separated and the butter made, whilst the other countries employ the separated meth. od, that is the milk is separated from the cream on the farm, and the cream then sent on to the creamery, Both methods bhave their advantages and also their disadvantages. Where the whole milk is shipped the separate milk is returned to the farmer to féed pigs and poultry, and it is claimed that sometimes this milk is the source of disease germs that cause serious trouble on the farms, especially if it the balance at 4% interest.

I think I heard some such not find yourself in talk about Canada and the home mar. having to wash a who! ket a few short years ago and as & to get the upper edge farmer I am still holding the bag. °* l of not using protectors. on this matter I have before remarkâ€" ed on the liking the British farmer is evincing for protection. He is goâ€" ing in for all he can get. One of his latest moves is on the canning quesâ€" tion. He says and possibly with some cause, that he can supply all the tinned milk England can consume, up comes the British fruit farmer with a further claim that the supplies of tinned fruit imported from abroad vote to other sides of farming, and keeps up a steady flow of milk to the factory. On the other hand the opâ€" ponents of the separator claim that cream das to be held over in many cases so long that super acidity is caused, and to overcome this the butter maker has to use neutralizaâ€" tion. Anyone who has had anything to do with a creamery will admit this, but in a dairying country like New Zealand, they counter this attack by claiming as an advantage that it brings the distant farmer within range of the creamery; it avoids the‘ spread of disease through mixing and redistribution to suppliers of separat. ed milk at the creamery it avoids economic waste of carting whole milk and separated milk; it saves labor | on the farm and at the factoryâ€"the milking and separating process can proceed simultaneously.

Where . mild flavoured honeys were used to | replace sugar, the flavour of the finished product was much improv-’ ed, It must be remembered, how-i ever, that approximately oneâ€"fifth | of the honey is water, therefore, the liquid portion of the recipe must be reduced by oneâ€"fifth.

Do not deâ€" pend wholly on the overturned sheet to do the entire protecting of the upper edge of your blankets and do not find yourself in the position of having to wash a whole blanket just to get the upper edge clean because I‘ll explain. Don‘t wash blankets clean as you do other clothes, just suds th@m and wring them clean. Make a doubleâ€"action suds, using twice as much soap as you use in l washing, and use the water lukewarm. Have the wringer loosened, and after getting the blanket thoroughly wet in this heavy suds, wring it at once through the wringer. Keep sudsing and wringing until the blanket is completely cleaned. Three suds and three wrings will nearly always clean a blanket, but keep on until you have done six sudsings and six wringings, if the blanket requires that much cleaning. Now put the blanket through a light suds, wring and then put it through two lukewarm rinses and the covering is ready for the line. In hanging to dry, be sure you hang the blanket so the colored stripes in the ends are vertical in order that no color runs into the main color, and pull the blankets into shape on the line. You will find your blankets so‘t and fluffy and clean. l Do you know that the rubbing of woollen fibres against each other is the main reason for blankets shrinkâ€" ing and the nap felting? asks M.

When he became Sir John Buchâ€" an, a lot of us said: "Well, he earned his honors, but no title ever can swell that Scot‘s head." Then in 1918, he was Col. John Buchan of the British wartime press bureau, shrewd, kindly, and deft, handling a bunch of rampaging American correspondents as gently as though they were so many newâ€" laid eggs and he, personally, had laid every last one of them. (Irvin S. Cobb) When I first knew him, he was plain John Buchan, writing the best Scotch novels since Robert Louis Stevenson. A cow in the Gueiph herd freshenâ€" ed on March 24th, and her R.O.P. test on April 2nd was 5.0%, while on June 3rd it was 2.7%. She was very fat at calving time and lost considerably in weight during the first two months. Variations from Day to Doy The morning and the evening milk from four cows was tested and weigh. ed separately for the whole lacation period, to determine what variations occurred within the whole period. The following table illustrates the wide range in tests on individual cows: _ No. of cow L. Test H. Test Av. Test The practical conclusion is evident: cows should be stripped clean at every milking. Variations Due to Condition of Cow Cows freshening in high condition will supply usually, for a period of time, 20 to 30 days, test abnormally high. The butterfat increased regularly and considerably to the last pound drawn. The solids not fat increased slightly to about the middle of the milking, and declined toward the end. ’ In some tests made at the Agricul. turale College, Guelp*, the milk was drawn from the cows under test in one.pound lots. Several tests of difâ€" ferent cows were made, but one set of figures will fairly well represent the general results. In this one tost the first pound drawn tested 1.7% in butterfat and $.22% in solidds not fat; the sixth pound gave 3.9% in b.f. and 9.07 in s.nf.; and the thirteenth and last, 6.2 in b.f. and 8.42 in s.n.f. The composite test was 37 bf. and 8.7 s.nf. Variations (From the Ontario Milk Producer) It is pretty well known that the foreâ€"milk drawn from a cow is low in butterfat, and the afterâ€"milk, high.
