J. Eric Hurry's Patosie Farm herd at Winsloe has achieved the outstanding distinction of being the highest producing herd in Canada regardless of age or times milked daily. The report-

Mr. I-Iurry's eight cows, on test produced an average of
10.854 lbs of milk containing’ 550 lbs. butter fat for an aver- age of 341 days per lactation.
Two cows outstanding in the
performance were Patosie Rosie and Patosie Verbena.
Rosie has just completed her tenth lactation of 12.224 lbs of v milk, 608 lbs butter fat to bring r her recorded lifetime production

The Annual Meeting of rate- payers of Mount Stewart was held on Feb. 4 1958 in the Village School with ‘the Chairman of
Commissioners Mr. J. R. Doyle presiding. Number of ratepay- ers present including Commis- sioners Russeal Mxclln-tyre and Earl Jay was 20.
Minutes of the last Annual meeting held on Feb. 5, 1957 was read by the Village clerk, R. H. Inness; these minu- tes were regularily moved and adopted as read although some disatisfaction was expressed due to the fact that as yet the Village has not received the commun- ity dump provided for in the 1957 minutes. ‘
The auditors financial state- ment as prepared by the local Bank Manager Mr. Harold Shaw
was read by the Village clerk and copies of same given to ratepayers present for personal security. It was r gularily moved and adopted hat this statement be adopted as read.

Budget for coming year as
;By GERRY McNEIL Canadian Press Staff Writer EDMONTON (CP) —~ Alberta
moose need a lot of room when they eat, or they can starve to death in no time.
“One or two per square mile can be a crowd,” says Bob Webb, 25 - year - old provincial game biologist, who job it is t=o see that the moose didn’t eat themselves out of existence.
At a rough estimate 50,000 of these sleepy-looking kings of the forest amble in Alberta, mostly in the foothi ls or the sparsely.- populated northern areas.
Sedentary a nima 1 s, ideally adapted to north temperature cli- mates, they may move onlyftwo miles from their birthplace in their lifetime. Ranging in weight from 600 to 1,200 pounds, stand- ing taller than a man, they are still seldom seen.
PRIZED TROPHIES,
“The difficult part for the hunters is to "' d the moose.” said Bob. “Killing him is usua ly easy.”
They are the most desired of Alberta's big game animals. In 1956, hunters bagged 4,507 moose, compared with 6,379 deer and 1,319 elk.
Despite the big kill, biologists felt the moose population was large enough to permit an open season on cows in 1957. An es- timated 1,000 were killed, ‘along with 4,000 to 5,000 bulls.
' “We try hard to balance the herd through hunting seasons to keep the herd through hunt- nig seasons to keep the popula- tion in line with an abundance of nutritious foods,” the biolog- ist explained.
BIG APPETITES
Moose are heavy eaters. When they run out of ha"dwood——birclh

One Or Two Moose Per ‘ Square Mile Can Be A Crowd
I ily," says Bob, “t-hey injure rtrees, cutting down their winter food. If an area is ,closely browsed, it means too many moose are around.
“Sonic areas can support more moose than others. That’s why a northern season may be longer than one in the foothills”.
Game biologists make aerial surveys in the winter to deter- mine the number of new calves and the number of moose in an area. In the summer, they check browse conditions.
When winter comes in areas that have been over-browsed, the moose is forced to ea-t foods that aren’t good for him, parasites multiply and he weakens consid- erably.
NATURAL REMEDY
Other methods besides con- trolled; hunting keep moose feed- ing areas from becoming over- crowded. Timber operations for instance open forest areas to new growth, on which moose thrive. Forest fires used to serve this purpose. .
‘“The Indians knew this," says Webb, “and they would burn out an area to restore falling moose populations. Any area can sup- port more moose after a bum.”
Science knows the process as
succession first in a burned or cleared area. Then come smaller birch and willow trees followed by pine and aspen. Spruce and fir constitute the for- est. uiitil old age, fire or man re- moves it. -
Treaty Indians in Alberta.‘ not subject to game seasons, and far north residents, shoot many moose for food al‘ year round. Predators like wolves, mostly killed in recent years, present few problems to the modern moose. ,
“Eventually we’ll prob- able have to restrict licensing,” says Bob, “but right now the moose shot in our six-week sea- son play a big part in balancing the herd."

Canada Research
Uses Toy Planes,
OTTAWA (CP)— The Canadian armament researcl and d. ‘op- ment establishment at Valcartier, Que., is saving money by using
_ toy airplanes in its aeroballistics
range. _
It seems that nearly every British and American scientist visiting the establishment near Quebec City,‘ wants to see the range in operation.
Canadian scientists used the run demonstrations by using care- fully machine operation models which are relatively expensive.
Then they found that a small metal model of a jet fighter plane turned out by a certain toy man- ufacturer served the purpose just, as well.

The landing gear of the toy plane is filed off and the modei is fired from a 17-pound anti- tank gun with the rifliii-g re- -moved.

Parliament Moves To Protect
‘Children Of B
By WALTER DAVIS
LONDON (Reuters) —— Parlia- ment extended a fatherly hand Friday to 20,000 children a year coming from broken homes.
The Commons gave _ second reading—approval in principle—- to a bill declaring parents should not be granted a divorce or_ _Ju- dicial separation until provision has been made for their chil- dren’s future welfare.
One of the ma-in purposes of the private bill—known as the “children’s charter" and sup- ported by both sides of the ‘House ——is to curb growing juvenile de- linquency resulting from broken homes.
Labor member Arthur Moyle. who sponsored the bill_,.sa1d that since 1938‘ divorce petitions have increased by 200 per cent. Last year, they totalled 25,000.
Under the proposed law, courts would ensure that a child is pro- vided with a suitable home before the parents gain a divorce. The courts would have the power to
‘commit a child to the custody of
a third party or to a local au-
thority.

are not necessary, the courts would arrange machinery to su- pervise the youngsters’ welfare.
Somerville Hastings, Labor, said for the first time the law would be ensuring that the wel- fare of a child from a broken home is considered before that of the parents.
Mrs. Jean Mann, 67, a dimminu- tive Scottish Labor member, said that broken homes might result from teen-age marriage and hav- ing several children before the age of 21. .
Mrs. Mann wed as a teenager and had three children by the time she was 24. Her husband died in January at the age of 80.
“I still think I would have been better off to take my mother’s advice and wait until I was 21,” she said. ‘‘I did feel I had been deprived of those teen-age years and I still think that a little hesi- tation is a good thing."
