The annual field days for these stations are now being held, and our farmers are availing themselves of the opportunity of see- ing at first hand what is being accom- plished in the way of scientific crop production. Forming today is a scientific profes- sion in which success is dependent upon keeping abreast d the timI. That the twelve illustration stations throughout the Province perform a valuable service in this connection will be seen from the published out- line of the major projects under way. These are: (i) the introduction oi pure bred bulls into districts where ueodi fi fie weighing and testing of die milk from individual cows; (2) applying the practice of harvest cul- tivation, a , “ice which has prover: very eflective in the control of weeds; i (l) compiling cost of production data; (4) applying nitrate fertilizers to tim- gmy; (5) comparing manure and fer- tilizer for potetoa; (e1 demonstrat- ing new concentrated fertilizers; ('7) mtg-oducing new crops and varieties; 1nd (s) promotion of vegetable gar- lene end flower sfl-rdens.

The sharp note sent recently 1 Turkey is the man responsible io only a routine threat were it not fo: one fact: the Soviet Ambassador to Tizrkey is the man responsible for stirring up the trouble. When Red Russian diplomats write the ultimatums which local states- men obediently sign the outside world can be expected to sit up and take notice. On the surface the present trouble between Turkey and Persia seems ordinary enough, says a contempor- ary. Wild tribesmen from Persia have invaded Turkey and were sever- ely punished for their attempt. They have fled to Mount Ararat. where. owing to a peculiarity of the border, they can be reached only by Persian consent. ‘Iurkey wants that consent, o‘: threatens to change the boundary to suit himself. As is well known, Turkey and Russia. have recently worked closely together. But Persia has also been under the influence of Moscow, The references of the Turkish Premier seem to indicate that one our other of the t/wo Islamic nntiom is slipping out from the Russian orbit. and the sltuati is worth yvatching.

FOOD AND WORK ; a youngster one of my chores .; to tidy up the back yard. It was her a large yard. and so I invited ~. boy next door to help me, in re- ‘n for which I offered to help him ‘ his wood. Nhile there was a certain novelty me ln handling the saw I had to unit that sawing wood was a much n-der job than tidying up the yard. nus I found myself stopping very {ten to ‘grease’ the saw so that it :ould go through the wood more easily. However as we were good friends and wanted to get away to play or fish it was to our mutual advantage m help one another at our respective chores. Why do I mention this? Because as there is a difference be- tween sawing wood and tidying up a yard, so likewise is there a differ- ence in the amount of work between that of a hard working mechanic and an office man. Now while a certain amount of food is necessary irres-< pective of physical work done never-. theless a hard outdoor worker re-i quires twice the amount of the ln-‘ door worker. ' And yet we find the oiflce man often eating three large meals a day, with an extra meal at night at a party, bridge game, or even as a regular habit at home. What does this mean? That his system has to handle this extra quantity in the best way it can. The usual way of course is for his body to simply store this extra food away as fat, and so we find such a. large number overweight. This puts extra and unnecessary work upon the heart. With others it means a lot of extra work on stomach. intestine, liver, kid- neys and skin, because the majority of these big eaters take little or no exercise. \ Oi course some of these big eaters boast that they belong to the no of a potential menace.

Well, an engineer of repute and experievce. one who him- 'self has put up some of the buildings, advises us that there is no danger whatever. at least so far as New York is concerned. New York is built on solid rock, as is generally known. and nobody can ‘tell how deep it goes or what is un- lderneath. Our engineer says he suspcctg one might bore for miles and still find rock. At any rate the ledge is capable of sustaining enormous weight. But it doesn't have to. As- tonishinsly the erection of a mil building seldom adds to the dead ‘weight of New York City, because the rock excavated to make way for the skyscraper is likely to weigh more than the building that goes up. ‘Phat new tallest structure in the world. the Chrysler Building. consid- ,erebly lightens the burden of the world‘; crust. it weighs appnodm- ately 00.000 tons.
