', LIVE STOCK MARKETING

_-.-_-

The Maritime Live Stock Marketing Board. 1110., the annual‘ meeting o! which was held recently in Charlot- leinwn. has clearly demonstrated its illﬂiliiiess to the farmers oi these Provinces. In 1927 the stock mar- keted through the Board amounted to $550,000; in 192B in $675,000, and tho present prospects lildicaie that the umount this year will’ reach the million dollar objective. This increase in three years speaks for itself.

The Board, which functions‘ as a marketing agency for the Maritime 11v, stock shiping clubs and operates throughout the twelve months/of the year, has for its object a return to the m9...» of the highest market price for his stock at the least pos- sible overhead expense. It has been ‘operating since its organization in

July. 192i, at one per‘ cent. of the selling price. This has been made possible by the gratifying patronage accorded by Maritime farmers, and‘ u this patronage increases the util- lly or the organization is beconlin? more and more apparent. working in harmony with the Federal and Provincial Departments of Agricul- ture, the Board has succeeded in spreading the production and mar- keting of h s, lambs and veal calves m,” g greats.- portion of the year than has hitherto been possible.

‘GENERAL HIGGINS’ roux.

The visit to Canada at the end of this month of General Higgins. com- mander-in-chief of the Salvation Army. is one of more than ordinary importance. The tour. which will in- clude_ Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick but unfortunately not Prince Edward Island, will occupy seven lveeks, and will take the General in- to Western Canada as fer as Cal- gary. ncwroundiiind wiii also be visited for the first time by a Salva- tion Army General since the found-_ er's tlmejmany years ago. '

zens generally would have been de- lighted to have welcomed General Higgins to this Province, but it has been found xbsolutel necessary in limit the itinerary to divisional cen- tres, and Saint John and Halifax take precedence in this respect. That the newly elected General of what has been ilvtlngly described a themight- lest army in the world will be cor- dially welcomed in our sister Marl- time Provinces and throughout Can- ada, goes-without sayiris-

General Higgins. of course, is no stranger to Canada. “As chief of stat! he took part in the annual congresses at Winnipeg and Toronto several years ago, and crossed the Dominion on a business trip in January last year. As far back as 1907 he accom- panied the founder on his campaigns in cbnado. and Japan. still earlier he had been chief secretary for the United States for eigtht years under Commissioner Booth-Tucker, who commanded the whole force in that country till Commander Evangeline Booths appointment in i905.

It was the present General who directed, under General Branlwell Booths command, the varied services organized for the welfare cf British soldiers during the Great War, for which King George gave him a well- deserved one. ‘

This condition bad been gududuy brought about by the ringing of the bell and placing the food immediately before them, but finally‘ the bell itself was suﬂiciont to start the juices ﬂow- ing. ‘

And the other digestive juices of the stomach and pancreas also begin. to ﬂow at the thought, sight, or smell of food.

Now this seems only natural when we remember that sight, smell, and taste, are really part of the brain, and the brain then sends the nerve impulses down to the mouth, stom- Bcii- I-iid Dancreee, which start the Juices ﬂowing.

However here is something b, llttls different that will cause us to do some thinking about food, appetite, and digestion.

TEACHERS’ TRIALS.

Bin-As so much is written at pre- sent re education in our province, p 16W thouehis from‘ a rural school teacher may not be lmlgg,

0n Tuesday last many of us began i119 year's work with very vague knowledge concerning the‘ boon whichareinbeusedthisyear. The “m”? "0"! l! iliiﬂlliiihas we on tho subject could furnish nothing by way of new texts. The only alter-no. tive was to await the leisure of our Educational Board. ‘

merit of thirty-two pupils. These are divided into eight grades: two pupils are still toiling tomasier the dipbii- bet. {our are taking matriculation Work. whereas five more. Grade 1X. are being introduced into the mys- teries of Latin. French Algebra and 060m ‘ .v- _ O1 these five pupiisthree have not yet been successful in ob- taining Public School N Certiﬁcates (two ougb failure to pass exam- inati and one through illness.) To prevent an extra grade these pupils must b6 Pfﬂplrcdto write Grade VIII examinations from Grade Ix. According to the only course of studies, which we have. at" present (which bears no ‘datel, to Grades I. and II., must be taught: Reading, Spelling, LIBWIR. Writinl. Draw- ing, Arithmetic, Nature, Hygiene. Physical draining“ Manners and Morals, Singing. To those are added, in Grade III.. Geography and His- tory; in Grade VII., Current Events; in Grade 12., French, Latin, Algebra, and Geometry. It certainly taxes ouch nerves, time and ingenuity to "concoct" a practical time-table cov- ering these subjects with eight grades. In a school such ls this there must be an average of about sixty distinct classes a day. Dividing up our pre- sent 6-hour day, less two 10-minute recesses, there would bean average oi tour minutes and forty seconds for eschnclass. Can you imagine a‘suc- oessful Latin lesson or even‘ a Junior Arithmetic drill-despatched at that "rate of steam"? Yea, lsurely shall we agree that our present educational
