also. When wheat yields of 50 to 60 bushels to the acre are gathered on rare occasivﬂi. 01' 125 bushels 0f oats, we tell the world, but we can quit crowing when we learn of an average of 2II bushels of potatoes to the acre in New Brunswick last year.

“And while our grain growers just plant the secd and leave the rest to Providence, the potato growers have much cultivating to do. Their crop is produced with sweat, if not with tears and blood. And with that labor and a. smaller price than for wheat last year, we can understand the feeling that ‘somebody should do something’ about the potato industry.

“Most 0f New Brunswick's surplus is sold in Quebec and Ontario. That explains a lot. It al- ways seemed strange that the Maritime: do not produce enough dairy products and meats for their 0\vn use. But they are so busy hocing the potatoes and exporting t0 other parts, that they haven't enough time t0 milk cows and feed pigs. “Growing seed potatoes is the cream 0f the business. They bring a big price, and the Mari- time soil seems marvellously suited to producing good seed. Nearly all the foreign trade is in this product. It goes not only t0 the United States, but also to Argentina, Cuba, Uruguay, Venezuela, Brazil, Mexico and South Africa. “Unfortunately, some excellent products fail to find large enough markets. \Vheat and seed potatoes are in the same boat. Figures published by the Financial Post show that in I939 New Brunswick produced over 2,000,000 bushels 0f certified seed potatoes but could sell only half 0f them. \Ve are all waiting for the wider markets of the new and better era.”

The foregoing statements may not be entirely accurate so far as Prince Edward Island IS con- cerned, but they indicate at least a sympatllﬁtlC tmdcrstanding of one of our major farm pro- blems. If otir representative-s in Parliament were

growers as \\'e.stcru iiiciiibci's arc in (liscttssitiq the wheat question, we might in timc get 501110 consideration from the king Government.

Anglicans and Nonconformists in Blackpool, England, have adopted the Sword of the Spirit, a movement forwarded by Cardinal Hinsley. "I think the movement is one of the good things 0f God, and I am prepared to back it one hund-

red per cent," said Rev. \V. Yates, Vicar of St. John's Anglican Parish Church, at a recent meet- ing in the town, addressed by Miss Barbara Ward. Rev. Alan Dale, secretary 0f the local Free Church Council, said that the occasion was his initiation into the Sword of the Spirit move- ment, but he was perfectly certain that the Free Churches 0f the town would stand whole- heartedly f0r any movement which clarified the peoples minds. ‘l l. ‘l l‘

IVestern Canada farmers reduced their wheat acreage this summer by 37 per cent, or 10,798.- 571 acres from last year's acreage, it is reveal- ed in figures released by federal Agriculture Minister Gardiner. The acreage sown to wheat in I940 on the prairies totalled 27,750,000 acres on which 520,623,000 bushels of wheat were grown. Reduction 0f wheat acreage by farmers followed an an- nouncement by the Government that the Canad- ian Wheat Board will accept delivery of 23o,- 000,000 bushels of wheat during the crop year starting August I. Farmers were promised pay- ments 0f $4 an acre for putting reduced wheat acreage into summcrfalloiv and $2 an acre for wheat land sown t0 coarse grains, rye grass and clover- -

One 0f the problems of the National Com- pulsory Unemployment commission during the past two weeks has been to enlist the smaller em- ployers. Repeatcd appeals were scnt to them, and the response has since been highly satisfactory, so that only a few remain to apply for cards for their employees. But the bulk of the work is im- posed on the employers, for they not only have to contribute two-fifths of tlic fuud but they also are responsible through the card system, for the collection of their employees’ weekly or monthly contributions, also two-fifths of the fund con- tributions. Administrative costs of the scheme, however, have been considerably exaggerated. It was stated last year in the llouse by Labor Min- ister Norman McLarty that the cost of admin- istering the scheme would be at least $3,000,000 a year, and this might rise to a maximum of $5.- 000,000, and that the total personnel required to manage it might be as high as 3,000 persons. At the prcscn: time the prrwiiiiiel is only a fraction o_f that nitmber. Wliru the schcmr bccauic opera- ttve 0n july I thcre wcrc only 800 employed, and ivhile this number will rise as the H5 rlis-

Testing A Tank

The tank had Just come out of the workshop after repalr and was belng tested t0 flnd out If there was any fault. In the workmanahlp before the tank was returned to Its unlt. ‘Ihe testing-ground was a pleoe of country over which, In ordlnery circumstances. I should have hesltsted to walk. Boulders, brick; and broken tree stumps Jutted out of It like alanonds on n peace-tune cake. High piles of rubble swItch-backed Into deep , muddy holes. And, as If the natural |obstacles of the pllce weren't haz-

ardous enough, huge tree trunks had been cast among the rubble; pits, wlth an Incline of one In two. ihad been excavated Ilka bunkers On s nightmare golf course.

When I arrived, the tank was waiting. Stuck on the top of It was a shape whIch, but for a. grinning row of white teeth, might: easily
