PRICE SPREADS
A matter of prime importance to the farmers and of course to the consumer as well is the cost of moving food ilrom farm to the table of the donsumer. As more and more of the population col- lec-ts in urban centres the ser- vices and methods necessary to feed the population become more complicated and latterly much ~more expensive as w-ages tend to rise and additional processing is required.
At the present time for every dollar t-hat the consumer spends in food approximately 45 cents is eaten up by transportation, costs, packaging, advertising, pr- ocessing, market margins, inter- est a-nd to some /extent specula- , . tive profits.

'T|MELY NOTES ON FUR FARMING
The Hudson’s Bay Company fur sale in New York last week was a very successful one. 98 per cent of the 47,776 miscellan- eous dressed mutation mink was sold, with very strong prices. These were consigned by EMBA, and their next sale at Hudson’_s Bay Company, New York, will be in April.
The summing up by the auc- tion company was: “This was another terrific sale. We are very well satisfied with the results; there was excellent attendance throughout, with very good ac- tivity in all color phases” Here are the top prices — Ceruleans brought a top price of $62 for males and $24.50 for females.. Ste- warts brought a top price of $52 for males and $23.50 for females. BOS saw a top of $53 for males and $27 for females. Azurine Ho- mo Sapphire males brought a top of $94 and $49 for females. Jas- mine sold at a high of $70 for males and $39 for females. Argen- ta BOS brought a high of $32 for males. V
The Minneapolis branch sale of the New York Auction Company (Minnesota Inc.) was largely at- tended and there was great en- thusiasm. A lot of 8,000 standard mink were 94 per cent sold; the collection was tlescribed as a very ordinary one with no fine strings; best price for standard males was $35, and $17.25 for fe- males. 9,000 Silverblue and 5,000
‘EMBA Argenta were 80 .per‘ cent
sold, with prices firm. Good strings of Silverblue males brought $35. TOO MANY SEALS
A _despatch from Washington, D.C., dated February 17, states that the U.S. government plans to kill off 90,000 seals (60,000 :- dult males and 30,000 females) in
the Pribilof Islands off Alaska in
order to reduce the fur seal pop- ulation now numbering some one and and onexhalf-million animals.
In the past years, the Pribilof natives, working for, the govern- ment, have pelted :about 65,000 fur seals annually, thking only a- dult male animals. Since produc- tion has greatly increased over the years, the government feels the quality of the fur -seal herds will be improved, and females will be able to produce more pups per capita, the reasoning being that there will be morefood avail- able '
The United States and Canada are both interested in the seal population of the Pribilof Islands, and a great deal of the credit for the flourishing state of the seal industry must go to the late W. Chester S. McLure, who was an authority on that subject and whose advice, coupled with that of American experts, resulted in the present success of the indus- try.

Five Die In Ontario Fire
ENA, Ont. (CP)—Five persons have died as the result of a fire which swept through a one-storey log cabin early Sunday at this isolated northwestern 0 n t a r l 0 hamlet.
A 26 - year «old mother, Mrs. Kenneth Linklater, died in hos- pital in Kenora from injuries suf- fered when she made a desperate attempt to rescue her three in- fant sons from the blazing cabin.
The sons — Roderick, two months, Leslie, 18 months and Albert, 3-—and her brother-in-law Alvin Linklater, 25, perished in the fire. Her husband Monday was reported in good condition in Kenora hospital. .
Ontario provincial police said Mr. and Mrs. Linklater were driven out the front door into the snow when the fire started.
The woman ran barefooted to the rear of the dwelling, smashed a window and crawled through in an attempt to reach her children.
St.‘P'ius Tenth Parish C.W.L. Holds Meeting
The regular monthly meeting of the St. Pius X Sub-division of -the Catholic Women’s'League was held in the parish hall, Parkdale on Sunday afternoon, March 2nd.
The president, Mrs. Percy Mac- Donald, presided and the meeting was opened with the League ‘prayer offered by the Spiritual ;Director, Rt. Rev. R. V. Mc- 3‘ Kenzie. ,
The secretary, Mrs. (Dr.) J. I.
iliggins read the minutes of “the
‘ previous monthly meeting and these were adopted.
The corresponding secretary, Mrs. Eugene Gorman, read let- ters from Mrs. Allan MacDonald, provincial finance convenor, re- garding the annual art drawing; Mrs. Joseph A. MacDonald, Tignish, exhorting the members to a proper observance of the season'of Lent; , Mr, George Haines, chairman of publicity for the Friendship Club of the Blind.
The treasurer‘s report was presented by Mrs. George ‘ Che- verie and approved.
The president advised the mem- bers that the annual C. W. L. Report Book was available for all interested to read.
Mrs. John Beaton reported having attended the Red Cross dinner in February and Mrs. Joseph Molloy reported as repre- sentative of the Red Cross dis- aster Committee in the Park- dale area. She asked the mem- bers for donations of used cloth- ing and household articles for this good cause.
A sum of money was voted to Monsignor McKenzie for the building fund. ’
- The president reminded the meeting that the annual meeting would take place in the parish hall on the first Sunday in April.
A letter was received from the national president of the C. W. L. Mrs. Margaret R. Bussieres con- taining the text of an address de- livered by His Holiness Pope Pius XII to as Congress of Catholic Women’s Organizations.
This address was read, in part, and Monsignor McKenzie addres- sed the meeting and very elo- quently commented on various items contained therein, especi- ally on Holy Father's theme of Truth, Love and Action. Under the Apostolate of Truth, pointed out women’s sphere in relation- ship to God, Christ and her de- pendence upon the Church as the teaching authority of God’s re- velations. Under the Apostolate of love he- pointed out that this would come from their practicse of the Apostolate of Truth namely as a living Charity. This would extend to all mankind and to all the’ world. Practise of it would make Charity grow within one- self. Under the Apostolate of Action he stated that women en- lightened by Truth and inspired by Love would become a guiding light and an encouraging force. The way would not be easy but God’s benign sympathy would lighten the burden and help hem to reach the goal. The Holy Father finally reminded them that serious threats hang over humani- ty and the message of the Re- demption must be brought back to the mind and hearts of the men and women of the world.
The meeting closed with the League prayer.
Loses Life In Carrier Crash
HALIFAX (CP)——A Banshee jet fighter rolled over the side of the carrier B o n a venture Tuesday, killing the pilot, Lt.-Cmdr. Brian Bell-Irving, 32, of Vancouver.
The navy said the jet made a normal landing on the carrier, which is taking part in exercises in southern waters, but the plane's brakes apparently failed as it taxied forward. It bounded over the side of the landing deck.
The destroyer - escort Haida, one of 12 Canadian ships taking part in the exercises, recovered the pilot’s body.
This is the second Banshee pilot to lose his life since the southern exercises began several weeks ago. Lt. W. T. B. Troy, 29, of Campbellton, N.B., died when his plane crashed off the Florida coast.

He addressed a Canadian Con- ference of 'Education workshop studying education for leisure.
He said the leisure time needs of working people must be seen within the framework of time available. - ‘ MANY FACTORS INVOLVED
Shift work, the home-to-work travelling entailed in industrial city living and low incomes that affect the amount of home privacy and money available for leisure activities must be consid- ered, he said.

At earlier workshop sessions, chairman Walter Herbert of Ot- tawa urged a thoughtful, long- term plan for leisure education so people would realize there are many ways to use spare time.
Mr. Herbert, director of the Canada. Foundation, said there may be a need for a national agency to concern itself with fu- ture increases in the amount of time not required for promoting economic welfare.
“I’m convinced that if we don’t start seriously thinking now, we are‘ going to be faced in the rea- sonably near future with a,.seri- ous situation by not being able to help people cope with leisure time.”

JOINTLY CONTROLLED _
Under the arrangement with Britain, the launching sites will be jointly controlled. Information from London is that Britain will pay the $90,000,000 cost of 9011- strucbing the sites and the United States, in addition to providing the weapons, will furnish air force crews to man the sites inl- tlally.
Later the RAF will take over the British bases. RAF _crew| now are in the U.S. training on the Thor and Jupiter.
