Fest work remained for the board mg its vast organization which had |prelld throughout the Empire. He believed that it might eventually bring about the exportation oi chil- led fish from the Maritime Provin- ces to England in as fresh a con- dition as they could be landed at Halifax, and the exportation of lresh fruit and chilled beef from umpire countries to the‘ United Kingdom. Tests leading to this de- velopmefit were already well ad- vanced, he said.

A million pounds a year had been expended in building up the Empire marketing board, Col. Amery said, and the work was divided into three divisions. The first was to bring io the people of the United- King- dom a realization of what the rest of the Empire could produce; sec- ondly, to create a market intellig- mce service that would bring to- iether the widely separated Empire producers, and thirdly, to apply modern research in the discovery oi means of improving quality and quantity oi production. -

with by the present conference, it being pointed out that with the {ranting oi preferences to stimulate intro-Empire trade, the purpose for which the board was primarily or- ranized would have been achieved.

Nr. Baldwin said that he mg hi; °°11°l8iioo IPDrcciated how difficult it wee w maintain the high ideals "14 l!" up to ill! speeches given before the assembly had opened, 3° T109611. md believed, however, that all would carry away from it an "elevation of mind and conse- cration of fellowship to soften the l-Bllfiflties" of the future, and to help each other in the paths that were to be followed. One of the great difficulties confronting stat- esmen was the temptat to de- vote themselves too much to details, To succumb to detail was to loge one's whole soul.

"As a statesman,” he said, "I oi- ten feel beyond the stream oi let- ters, speeches and despatch boxes and hear the still, small voice that questions my meanings and forces me to stand in the full glare of the white light of eternity, and. it is

eceseay to withdraw for a few minutes that we may heed that voice which makes us think."

I-le reflected how empires oi old had written their history in brass and parchment. They now lay be- neath the sands oi the desert. blotted out and trampled upon by the footsteps oi man. These, said Mr. Baldwin, might seem curious thoughts at the moment, but he expressed them for one purpose. which was to impress upon his hearers that "we must build up our Ennplre for perpetuity."

family in this that we owe one common allegiance to one Kins and one Emperor," Mr. Baldwin said. “But we are more than a family.

which together we helped to save for mankind."

"We, are heirs to the Roman Empire," the British leader con- tinued. He reminded his hearers oi the words oi Prudentius, uttered 1,- 600 years ago:

past has prepared the road for the coming oi Christ."

He quoted this to show what the words could teach in this 20th century. Progress was not inevit- able. The Roman Empire was larg- ely the result of its political sophis- but that political genius did not prevent the downfall oi the Caesars And that challenge exsted today. The world stood 0n the FY6019!“ of bankruptcy in the midst oi plenty. Were statesmen imbued with the spirit that no toil would be (o0 great. no effort too Severe and no patience too protracted to discharge the tasks before them?"

The Empire was an achieved ex- ample oi a League oi Nation's, the

_ maintenance of which in the midst

of the welter oi uncertainty that surrounded it today was vital. To each Dominion iell the responsibil- ity of preserving its own soul, oi having pride in its history, its lit- erature, art, education and spiritual life. While this might entail sacri- fices at times, when national con- sciousness developed, each must be true to civilization as a whole. ~

With regard to education, nothing was more important in a young country than the maintenance of its standards in this respect. The great universities oi Canada were preserving these standards, a con- dition essential to a civilized and cultivated state. It was, not a ques- tion oi intellectual snobbery but a question oi people recognizing the difference between first class and inferior work.

“It enables the people to row!- nize," he added, "whether an achi- evement is a real achievement or only humbug."

A5 this figure is arrived at from an aver- Blle of twelve years’ results it is oi more than ordinary interest. The number of eggs required to pay the cost of feed per bird varies, of course, with prevailing market pri- cm from year to year. During the period oi the report it has ranged from as low as 50 eggs in 1922,to a peak of 60 in 1930, while it took 51 to pay the feed cost in 1931. It is also interesting to note that the same cost study shows ihat an average oi 15 eggs is sufficient to pay the cost of feed per bird dur- ing the winter months only.

SOAP BUBBLE TESTS STEEL

When engineers at the Universi- ty of Michigan want to find out whether the steel beams oi a bridge will carry the load expect- ed to flow over it, they ask a soap bubble.

These bubbles reveal the strength of the beams so accurately that they are being used in a ma- thematical iormula to picture the stress in the mctnl parts of com~ plicated shapes, says Popular Me- chanics Magazine. The procedure is explained by Dr. P. Allerton Cushman, of the college oi engin- eering, who says that by mapping the contour of a flimsy soap bub- ble over the cut but model o f a cross section of a machine cr sky- scraper beam, engineers can deter- mine quickly just how much twist- ing or bending stress will affect the original of the model.

The apparatus that records these findings is surprisingly simple. Halfway down in a square box, a brass sheet is scaled with a nor- tion of metal cut out in copy of the cross section of the article tobc tested. Topping the box is a glass plate, inset with a depth guagc. A film oi soap solution is drawn across the cut out design and the water is forced into the lower part of the box, causing the confined air beneath the plate to push up the film, and with the depth gauge the varying level of the film is measured from the glass top.

Many readings are taken. curves are plotted between points nnd a

shoulders of the Prime Minister oi Canada. And Canada must be con- gratulated on the quality and fibre of the men who have held that great office since i867. The Prime Minister is the one man who must see Canada as Canada. He must view it nationally, as a great na. tion; and you must know what that means-the difficulties of it. Viewing Canada, 3,000 miles across, and helping to unify it in thought and in action-it is by his success in that that he will ultimately be judged. He must have the sympathy and support of all Canadians who love their country."

“From the conference may come not only material bcnefizs. but a great advance in our the. _hts and an appeal to the youth of tile Com- monweaith to make it who. it ought to be," Mr. Baldwin concluded. This he characterized as "a metaphori- cal throwing ofl our coats and har- dening the hands.” The conference would set forth the unity of the Commonwe lth. In the words of Professor Eddington: "Our life on earth is but the opportunity to work pi; and participate in the work

DOMINION EXPERIMENTAL FARMS EXHIBIT AT THE C. N. E. (Experimental Farms Note)

In addition to the usual educa- tional exhibit staged by the Do- minion Experimental Ferrrls at the ‘Canadian National Exhibition this

Year. a huge diorama is being in- ; stalled on which will be shown the ilocaticn of the 26 Branch Experi- Qmcrltal Farms and the various in- ldustries of the Dominion. Agricul-

ture, of course, predominates. The ,wheat fields of the West are ‘shown. mixed farming and the dairy industry in the East are clearly portrayed, while the indus- tries such as lumbering, mining. fishing, waterpower, tourist traffic. transportation, etc., are all illus- trated and each city in Canada is realistically shown in cut out rc- lief.

Platforms will automatically rise from invisible openings in the pic- ture on which will be displayed some of the originations of the Do- minion Esrperimefitnl Farms which mean millions of dollars to the farmers of Canada each year.

Such valuable contributions will be exhibited as Marquis, Reward. Garnet, Huron and Ruby wheats, from the Cereal Division: Melba HD1115. early tomatoes, Bantinfl corn, Ruby rhubarb; a new egg plant, from the Horticultural Divi- sion; corlffication of seed potatoes and raspberry stock from the Bo- tanical Division; registered pedi- gree poultry breeding stock from the PoultryDivision: an improved clover from the librage Crop Divi- sion, etc.

This diorama will be located in the Upper West Annex of the C011- eeum and will illustrate in a gra- phic way the services being ren- dered by the Dominion Experimen- tal Farms to agriculture and the assistance being given to the de- velopment of the mariy resources of Canada. '

FLOWER BUSINESS INDUSTRY

IS HUGE

DETROIT’, Aug. 15-More money is invested in the flower business of the American continent than in the steel industry, according to Thomas Luke, president of" the Florists‘ Telegraph Delivery Asso- ciation, who recently addressed members of that body's school oi design in attendance here.

As a. qualifying statement, _ Mr. Luke declared that last year the public spent more than $80,000,000 on flowers and plants. In spite of hard times he said, florists in gen- eral have done exceptionally well. "It takes more than hard times to down romance and sentiment ex- pressed by flowers," he emphasiz- ed. ‘

In the picking up of business Mr. Luke envisioned a quick re- turn of affairs to normal.

More than 1,000 members of the association attended the school of design at Detroit, among pupils being florists from every state of the union and two provinces of Cnada.

Kiplings Paper

(Simla Correspondent of Christian Science Monitor.)

The newspaper on which Rudyard Kipling once served as an assistant editor, the Pioneer, has passed from British control to Indian-making one of the most significant pieces of "Indianization" that has occurred in this country in ‘recent years. First published in 1865, the news- paper has conscientiously served Anglo-Indian interests in India, and its change to an Indian-owned pub- lication is viewed in India as some- thing in the nature of a minor im- perial event.

Since its foundation the Pioneer has virtually always represented the best characteristics of the Brit- ish connection with India, and for many years was considered the most important newspaper in the coun- try. Kipling served on the Pioneer, at Allahabad, and the Civil and Military Gazette, at Lahore, be- tween 1882 and 1889. It was as a re- sult of his connection with these newspapers that he developed his flair for portraying Indian life and mariners, .and it was in the col- umns of the two newspapers that he developed his flair for portray- ing Indian life and manners, and it was in the columns of the two news- papers that his flrst sketches of the Indian scene were produced.
