Color Is Important Color in apples is important to growâ€" ers and to consumers. For the growâ€" er there is the practical advantage that wellâ€"colored apples are not nearly so subject to injury by storage scald as are apples in which the color is imperfectly developed. Buyers have a decided preference for wellâ€"colored apâ€" ples, whether they are yellow or red, _ According to chemical tests carried out by the United States Department of Agriculture, it is not rouge that puts the blush on the cheeks of apples, but a chemical substance that sports the aweâ€"inspiring title of 3â€"galactosiâ€" dylcyanidin. If an apple merely has 3â€" galactosidylquercetin it is usually yellow in appearance, but 3â€"galactoâ€" sidylcyanidin is the stuff that makes one of those nice red skins you love to crunch, The tests have shown that this substance is present in yellow apples of the Grimes Golden variety, but it is not identical with or responsâ€" ible for the yellow color of the skin. In red apples the unseen coloring matâ€" ter is acted upon chemically and changed to red idaein, which is a simâ€" pler name for 3â€"galactosidytcyanidin. They have not yet identified the conâ€" ditlons that cause this change from yellow to red.

Later the farmer was conducting his visitors about the place when a rooster began a lusty crowing: Two parsons were having lunch at a farm.

This research does not compare the merits of yellow apples and red apâ€" ples. It does bear out the popular idea that to be good, red varieties ought to be red and yellow varieties yellow. and are willing to pay higher prices for them. There is good reason behind the preference, For the consumer, good color is a practical and easy guide to selection of good ripe fruit. {JAV!

"In 1837 there was a substantial inâ€" crease in the price of some lines of material, but we are hopeful that there will be recessions in price durâ€" ing the year," Airâ€"Conditioning to the Fore ‘‘During the year we had a heavy airâ€"conditioning programme in connecâ€" tion with our passenger cars, and 126 cars were airâ€"conditioned," Mr. Vaughan added. During the year the following new equipment was delivered to the Naâ€" tional System by car builders in Canâ€" ada, Mr. Vaughan announced. Fifty first class coaches; 10 mail and exâ€" press cars; 2,665 box cars; 49 flat cars; 15 ballast cars; 30 and cars; 300 gondola cars; and 175 freight reâ€" frigerators. In addition, 125 freight reâ€" frigeratore were built in C. N. R. shops. "Our shops were also operated to greater capacity during the year, which was necessary to meet the equipment requirements of the railâ€" way, and, therefore, more material was required for that purpose." Fifty Firstâ€"Clase Coaches "Our total purchases of material in Canada in 1937 approximated $62, 506,000. Of that amount approximateâ€" ly $15,140,000 went for new equipâ€" ment, and $11,216,000 for Canadian fuel used on our locomotives and in our boiler houses, stations, coaches, etc, Approximately 315,700,000 t't of forest products were bought in Canâ€" ada by the Canadian National Railâ€" ways in 1937, which consisted of maâ€" terials for construction and repairs to equipment, buildings, etc. Of that quantity 225,700,000 feet are repreâ€" sented by track ties." HOW‘S vour STOMACH? "We expended considerably more for the purchase of material and supâ€" plies in 1937 than in 1936," Mr. Vaughan said. "That was necessitated by the increased business handled, which required the running of more passenger and freight trains to meet the needs of increased traffic. Conâ€" sequently, more fuel was burned and a larger quantity of train and other supplies were used." We a_llA feel this way at times: Purchases made by the Canadian National Railways during 1937 amountâ€" ing to over sixtyâ€"two million dollars from approximately ten thousand Canâ€" adian firms assisted very materially in bringing various branches of Canaâ€" dian industry back to normal condiâ€" tions, R. C. Vaughan, Viceâ€"President in charge of purchases, stores and steamships, stated in an interview at Montreal last week in which he reâ€" viewed the year‘s activities of his deâ€" partment. $61,000,000 Spent By the C. N. R. During 1937 From Almost Ten Thousand Canadian Firms. Money Spent Was Boon to Industry In the Larder Lake district of Ontâ€" ario, great activity is apparent. At the Barber Larder property mining plant The Province of Quebec is the scene of great activity. East Malartic Gold Mines, now developing underground, shows definitely a "big mine‘" outlook. Adjoining on the east, the Rand Malâ€" artic property reports good diamond drilling results. On the Lacoma proâ€" perty in Tavernior township exceptionâ€" al results are reported from first new work underground. The East Lacoma people are planning diamond drilling. In the west section of the Province, Powell and Beattie show healthy deâ€" velopment.

By the purchase of fifty airâ€"conditioned firstâ€"class coaches of the latest design during the past year, we have attained the objective of hayâ€" ing all principal mainâ€"dinc traings fully airâ€"conditioned." Mr. Fraser stated that passenger traffic on Canadian National lines had shown an increase of fifteen per cent. during the year. "Increase in train travel generally resulted from the upâ€" ward trend in spending power that was noticeable during the greater part of the year," he said. "Frequent low fare excursions between Canadian citâ€" ies and towns, and to points across the international border, brought bunâ€" dreds of thousands of people to the railway for short coach trips. Good progress was made in the airâ€"condiâ€" tioning of our passenger equipment, We have had airâ€"conditioned standard and tourist sleeping cars, dining cars, compartment, observation and library the improvement in general business, resulting in an increase in freight tonnage handled of approximately ten per cent. over that of 193¢. Progress In Mining Development "‘Mining developments in Northâ€" western Ontario and Quebec have shown remarkable progress during the past year. The opening of that porâ€" tion of the Canadian National Railâ€" ways‘ new Senneterreâ€"Rouyn line from Senneterre to Val d‘Or on November 29 provided muchâ€"needed rail faciliâ€" ties to the numerous mines located in that area." "The year 1937 was one of steady progress in the volume of freight traffic handled, as well as changes and improvements effected in our serâ€" vice to the public," said Mr. Fraser, "While there was a heavy falling off in grain shipments, resulting from the very light crop in parts of Western Canada, this was more than offset by MONTREAL, Jan. 11.â€"The volume of freight and passenger traffic carâ€" ried over lines of the Canadian Naâ€" tional Railways during the past year shows a considerable improvement over that of 1936, Alistair Fraser, Viceâ€"President in charge of Traffic, stated in a review issued here last week. Passenger Traffic Is Up 15 Per Cent. Alberta reports much good news, inâ€" dieating this Province as a potential big source of oil supply for the British Empire.

Farmers may keep only what the y need for their families. For feeding bread crops to livestock they may be fined heavily, Making Country Selfâ€"Sufficient According to G. L, Steere, American agricultural attache at Berlin, these strenuous efforts have succeeded in making the country 1 per cent. selfâ€" suflicient. But many farmers are evading the rigid quota system, Gangs of syndicates, operating strings of highâ€"powered cars, sell coveted foodâ€" stuffs widely, and individual bootJeg gers travel about on trains with food conceated in falseâ€"bottomed trunks and suitcases. The penalties are sovâ€" ereâ€"fines, prison, and in the case of largeâ€"scale operators, death, Yet the Minister of Agriculture estimates that oneâ€"third of all food produced is sold surreptitiously, Darre‘s supervisors stalk the farâ€" mer‘s fields, squinting, estimating. When the potatoes start to grow the supervisors point to empty spots and order a new planting there. German agriculture is literally one vast corporationâ€"the National Food Corporation, At its head is the Minâ€" ister of Agriculture, R.

Hans can own his farm, but he cannot own what he produces, vast corpor: Corporation, ister of Agri a man with that concern most every j it. Let‘s consider how Hans Vogel, typical German former, fits into the intricate economic plan of the Nazi state. Before the dictatorship Hans killed each fall four or five fat pigs and made them into a winter‘s supply of sausage and headcheese, Now he brings all his pigs to the Nazi control station and receives for them the Govâ€" ernment price. He has a fat steor to gell in the market, Exciting places, these German markets used to be. The trader beat his paim as he names a figure. The farmer beat his palm as he named another. And the chaffor ing proceeded until at last a bargain was made. Now, in the market metaâ€" morphosed by the Nazis an officer comes along, glances at the beast, names a figureâ€"and Hans must take To every farm in Germany the Gov ernment men come to make sure that the amount of milk the farmer delivâ€" ers is precisely the amount he draws from his cows, says George â€" Kent, writing in the Country Home Magaâ€" zine. For the farmer must bring all his milk to a control station, He canâ€" not retain even a pint to churn butter for the family, ‘The skim milk he needs for his pigs he must buy back. The price he gets is fixed for everyâ€" thing he grows. cows are filing into the barn: They take the stools from the farmer‘s wife and the hired girl, sit down and begin milking. ‘They strip the 40 cows and set down figures in their notechbooks. is a Tough Proposition for the Farmer Who Owns His Own Farm But Can‘t Control Hi Agriculture Under * The Oover_nnept men arrive as the Nationa!
