UNIFORMITY

The Danes still continue to dom- inate tlw British baoon market and the reason is not far to seek. The secret‘ is uniformity. Statistics show that 85 percent of Danish hogs “produce a qualify of bacon that ranks as "firsts" in the Brit lsih market and commands top pric- es. I in Canada we produce some "firs-lsf’ but we do not realize top prices for the simple reason that with our "firsts" there is u. mix- ture ‘of seconds and even ‘thirds and the lot naturally brings a low- er average price.

Canadian bacon ranks high m the-llritish market. it comes next to‘ Irish and Danish and rank-i higher than American: With a uni- form system of breeding the right bacon lwa. careful inspection of the product and insistence npon exporting only the best. nets done in Denmark and lrelnnd. we could" command us‘ high s- price as these. i ‘lb reach this uniformity of grade should be Canada's aim in hog pro- duction. lt may uost something to get moi-int- higher muss but it pays. “At presentcanmlu supplies‘ only 10.3 per cent of the bacon pur- chased ln Great Brltalnf-Dcnmark supplies 41.9 per cent, the United Slates MA and mhericountries 6.7. There .is no reason why Canada should not secure at least as large a show of the trade as the United States. yet. we are competing with the United States both ln "our home Jiarkct and in the British market because we admit American pork into Canada under a duty which ‘is no bnr to its importation. The Canadian bacon business like other lines of Canadian in dustry. requires some protection from the more cheaply produced products of the United States.

Strange to say. it is in the cold weather that many homes and offices are. often found to be much too hot for health. The fur- uaoc in the basement or cellar at such times is going at full blast and the distributing pipes are hot. Perhaps if there wares thermomet- er the room or office it would at the time register 80 to 85 degrees of hent and so warn the occupant. Too often it is not there.

if you were to ask your

on ailment in the human family he

would tell you that it was con- stipation.

And the next’.

Well what people call "colds” would likely be the next most

common ailment. Your doctor would tell you an- other thlng and that is that the ordinary common cold, ls the first cause of many serious ailments of the "chest, kidneys and other organs of the body. 0i‘ course some head colds are simply duo to dust. For instance if you handle a number of books that have been put away for some time, the dust will irritate your nose and throat and you'll have a typical head cold. However most colds are due to something lowering your resisting powers. The whole tone of your body he- comes lowered. Sudden changes in temperature, wet weather, over- eating uuderoatlng, overwork. in- sufficient sleep, are factors. Your common sense tells you that you can't be careless, can't "take it chance" and not expect to have to pay for it. iilany a draft hasbeen blamed for causing a cold, because in a crowded room some one has open- ed a window. if the people in that room have been sitting with their outer wraps on. or have allowed the tempera- ture of the room to go away up, their bodies will be bathed in per- splration. The ‘cold air striking that hot body may check the per- spiration and start a llltle trouble. Someone, has well said “it's the indoor man that catches the ‘ cold, not the outdoor man. that L, out in the cold all the time" What's the pointf. That bad air, air that has been used by loo many people, air with the dust and organic particles from other people, breathed by someone who is not at par physic- ally. ls really the actual cause of the common cold. You know, as I've said before, most of the troubles you suffer from are always in you. They are in your intestine, your breath, your loose. or mouth. oven in your lungs land liven-They do no harm as

__,V.._.

During the week ending Jany 3rd, 139 visitors called at the Cau- adlan Office of whom 98 obtained interviews and l4 .eg~lste ed. Since the matter was taken up by the High Commissioner with the Imperial Shipping Committee. the discrimination which existed in Atlantic freight has now ceased. Unfortunately, instead of lowering the rate on Canadian flour. tb that on American, the latter had been raised to the Canadian rate which is by no means so satisfactory. This matter will be discussed by the High Commissioner at the next meeting of the Board.

The High Commissioner has no cepted nomination as one of the Vice-Presidents of the Internation- al Advertising Convention which is being organised in connection with the forthcoming British Empire Exhibition .

The High Commissioner recent- ly took up with theilrltlsh Empire Exhibition Authorities the subject of the statements made that Can- ada was using Baltic timber. A letter of apology has now been re- ceived by the High Commissioner from John W. Simpson and Max well Ayrton, and this they have promised to circulate to the Board of the Exhibition and those Domin- lou and Colonial Authorities to whom the statements have been made.

All the orders, amounting to about one hundred. issued by the Ministry of Agriculture respecting the outbreak of foot and month di- sease in the United Kingdom, which are likely to have an effect on the Canadian cattle trade have been communicated by cablegram or letter from the High Commis- sioner's Office in London, to the Department of Agriculture in 0t- tarwa.

‘The High Commissioner's Office has investigated the representa- tions recently made concerning the hardships caused to British Army Officers settled in Canada, by the present method of deducting Bri- ilsh income Tax from pensions. The British Authorities state that if any officer who is eligible to make a claim will promptly do so after April 5th lu any year. they will scethat it is disposuxl of quick- ly. To officers in doubt a prelim- inary enquiry Form can be issued. and arrangements will probably be made for the officer paying im- perial Pensions, Ottawa, io be fur nlsbcd with n supply oi‘ those Forms. It should he made clear that pensions of lndlnniirmy- of- flcers are not liable to United Kingdom income Trix, while the officres are resident outside the United Kingdom, but private iii- come derived from the United Kingdom is liable to tax.
