Mayor Edwin C. Johnstone Monday night instructed Police Chief. C._ W. MacArthur to carry out an ‘eviction order issued some time ago by the Council while functioning as the City’s Board of Health.
The subject developed following the monthly report delivered by the City Health Officer, Dr. Wen- dell MacDonald, in which he noted that the biggest problem facing the municipality from the standpoint of health, was the continued lack of accommodat- ion for persons in the lover in- come brackets.
Asked by the Mayor to state whether or not a certain family had been removed from a house previously condemned, the City Health Officer replied in the nega- tive, adding that he understood such action had been deferred un- til the advent of better weather.
STRONG ME_ASURES NEEDED
Noting that information at his disposal indicated that this fam- ily ( a mother and eight children) had been re-located several times and returned to these condemn- ed quarters on each occasion, Councillor Foster declared that “strong measures” were nec- essary to safeguard the proper‘

ties and health of adjacent citi- zens.
“Is it possible that we (the Board of Health) have been over- ruled in this matter?” he asked.
“These are poor people.” C0011- cillor Gormley said, “who bought this place not knowing that it had been condemned for further hu- man habitation.. .They should re- ceive some redress."
Admitting that the committee had informed him about this no- tice several days ago, Chief Mac- Arthur declared he was at a loss to know what to do with the fam- il .
3:‘The City has no accommoda- tion for such people," the Chief said, adding that he did not feel like putting them out on the stree ."
Councillor O'Neill advised the Chief to Contact Sister Mary Henry at the Catholic Welfare Bureau and Mr. Eugene Mac- Donald of the Department of Wel- fare. ,
I'm sure that they will have a
solution /for this problem,” Councillor 0’Neill said. BIG FISH

The request that negotiations be reopened was made by the union in the light of the recent
decision handed down by the Pro- vince's Supreme Court in respect to the appeal made by the Sum- merside civic employees union. The Court ruled that it was

P.E.l. Department of Agriculture
A milking machine needs to be taken apart so that all surfaces that come in contact milk are brushed in a. dairy wgshing solution after each milking. This is easy to learn to do in less than ten minutes per unit with any modern milking machine. A cleaning rod should be used for the long milk hose.
Apply the same principles as for other utensils. We need to 1. Rinse the machi-ne by drawing a pail of full fresh, clean, cold water through each unit im- mediately after milking before the vacuum pump is shut off. 2. Then use two ounces or four tab- lespoons of washing soda to a pail of warm water at 125 degree F. draw-ing it through the machine. 3. Next, take apart all the milk tulbes. teat cup infla- tions, valves, pail head and pail then brush with the warm dairy soda solution. 4. Rinse all parts with clean, warm water to re- -move the washing solution. 5. Scald with boiling hot water and store in a clean dry place.
T‘-he tea.-t cup assembly re- quires further attention between milkings to prevent an increase in the number of,bacteria. Af- ter the washing treatment, the best way for the average farmer and fill it with a 1-2 per cent so- and fill itwibh a per cent so- -lution of lye so that all surfaces that touch milk are completely in contact with the solution un- til the next Just before Tmilik-ing again, the lye solution needs to be discarded and an ap- proved sterilizing solution drawn through the machine. It is easy to take care of a milking ma- chine in just a few minutes if it is alwavyus done correctly after every milking so that it is never allowed to get dirty.
The lye -solution should be pre- pared in the following manner 1. Mix one can of lye with a gallon of water. This is known as the stock solution. 2. Then add 3 or 4 ounces of stock solution to a gallon of cold water, invert bottle and place on rack.
PREPARING COWS
1. All cows in the herd should -be -treated as an individual. Some cows have a nervous disposition and should be treated according- ly. .
2. Cows easily mi-liked should be attended to first. .
3. Cows udder should be kept clipped.
4. Before milking -the cows, the udder should be washed and mas- saged for at least twenty seconds with a damp cloth at a temper- ature of 130 degree F., then re- move a couple of‘streams of milk from each teat into a strip cup as the first milk removed from the udder its very high in bacter- ia. After this is done the mach- ine is attached to the udder and the milking proceeded with.
5. Try and get cows to milk fast, do not leave machine on ud- der for more than three minutes. Then strip by hand. Thro » h time she will need very lit le stripping by hand and while one cow is milking the other cow can be prepared.
-6. After machine is removed from the udder, teats could be clipped in Chlorine solution be- tween cows.
7. ’Dhe cow.is a. wonderful ma- chine, she circulates 400 gallons of blood through her system in order to produce 1 pound of milk.
8. Sanitation must be practis- ed at all times.
GRADE BUYING OF MILK ~
The first item under panel dis- cussion at the Cheesemakers’ general meeting at Holiday Inn, Red Deer, March 11, was “Pur- chasing Milk from Producers on a Grade Basis.” Chairman of the discussion L. M. Silcox, Supervis- or of Dairy Factory Inspection stressed the need for only top quality milk going into the cheese vat to bring forth a top quality cheese. Modern methods make it easier for the producer to turn out such a product. It's unecono- mical when he doesn’t use tliem. Still some borderline milk is com- ing in to lower the quality of the rest of the vat. What to do about it?
Panel members D. J. Prince, Calgary, J. J. Klassen, Coaldale and J. Duerksen, Linden were un- animous in their opinion that
. when they bought qua-lity milk
it resulted in improved cheese. To grade cheese milk i-t must undergo the reductase and sedi- ment tests. These show the pro- ducer at a glance what grade his
milk belongs in. Because cheese is also graded on a sediment test it is important to sell the pro- d-ucer on the idea of clean milk rat-her than cleaned milk, says D. H. McCal-lum, Dainy Commis- sioner, Alberta, Department of Agriculture.
New regulations tighten these testing requirements, and it was decided that those who shipped reject milk would first be in- «formed, then visited to help tliem improve their condition, and fol- lowing no improvement be cut off from shipment.
INJURED FRUIT TREES
Fruit trees suffering from win- ter injury, mice injury and me- chanical injury can be invigorat- ed and restored to profitable pro- duction by two simple orchard practices — bridge grafting and inarching. If bridge grafting and inarching. are employed follow- ing severe winters, many of the trees which later die from severe trunk and crotch injuries, would now be producing commerical crops.
Birdge grafting and inarching are best done in the early spring just as soon as the bark slips easily. This is usually after the first flush of sap hasgtaken place and the buds on the tree have
begun to swell. The operations
can, however, be carried out at any time during spring when the bark is slipping but it is better to bridge when dormant scions and seedlings are avilable. Seed- lings that have leafed out can be used but are more difficult to transplant. Additional information in connection with bridge graft- ing and inarching operations is obtainable from the Provincial Department of Agriculture, Box 2000 Charlottetown.
SELECTING LUMBER:
Hammer and saw dusted off, the budding carpenter is anxious to get his hands on some lum- ber. What should be look for? Boards of sufficient strength and quality suited to the job he wants to undertake. As hardwood is gen- erally manufactured into floor- ing and furniture, softwood, used for construction, will probably be his choice. '
‘Quality and strength of wood are affected by grain, defects, and indirectly by moisture con- tent. For strength look for a straight grain‘ running parallel to the sides of the board. Knots, checks and splits weaken wood and so lower the grade. Freshly cut or green lumber should not be used in house construction. Al- though cheaper than dried lum- ber, it soon proves some expen- sive when difficulties such as shrinkage, nail popping, warping. checking and cracking arise:
Now for the forms of softwood lumber. Dimension lumber in 2 or more inches thick. It must be strong, stiff and uniform in size as it is used for framing, joists, rafters and studs. High quality dimension lumber permits only defects which do not impair strength. Common boards less than 2” thick are for general pur- poses. Square edged, they are planed on one or more sides and edges. Finish lumber is used for interior, exterior trim and flooring, and consists of select quality. Only a few small imper- fections are allowed. While di- mension lumber is judged primar- ily on the basis of strength boards and finish lumber are graded on the basis of appearance.
Buying lumber of insufficient strength and quality is naturally unwise, says Miss Sanderson; buying better quality than is needed is extravagant. Figure out what your particular job requires —- approximate grade and type. Then write down thickness, width and length of each piece needed and the number of pieces of each size.
Store lumber in a dry place to avoid warping, staining and oth- er possible ill effects and stack as it’s done in a lumber yard. When storing outside put in on a level foundation off the gorimd. Protect from rain and ground moisture with tarpaulins.

Was Engaged In Operation
A Charlottetown boy, Dr. son L. Saunders, was a member of the team that performed suc- cessfully an operation that made
history at the Royal Victoria Hos- pital in Montreal last week.
The operation was performed on Louis Burns, 25, of Frederic- ton, who was on the operation table for eight hours and for 55 minutes of that time the func- tion of his heart in pumping blood through his system was taken over by a heart-pumping machine used on a human being for the first time at the Royal Victoria. The delicate operation to repair a leaky valve in his heart requir- ed donation of 30 pints of blood through the transfusion service
oi the nospmd. Engaged in the operation was
g team of five surgeons. three I
anesthetists. four specially train- ed nurses and an electronic en-
gineer from 8 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon.
The machine siphoned the blood from the right side of the heart, pumped it over a series of metal screens and returned it to the patient by means of a second pump attached to a lag artery. For 55 minutes the chambers of the heart were dry and sur- geons were able to see exactly where the trouble was and to Work directly on the heart, which continued its regular beat.
Dr. Saunders is a graduate of Dalhousie University at Halifax. He is taking a postgraduate course in surgery at the Royal Victoria Hospital. He is a son of Mr. and ‘Mrs. L. W. Saunders, 96 Prince Street.
