Shsrkey Associated Press Foreign Staff) GENEVA. Jan. 20—_iA. P.)-—The League of Nations Council met in ~ a. long-awaited session today but made no move to settle the Italo- Ethlopian war. Despite a new protest from Eth- "lopia for aid, the Council rejected a pies from Emperor Hallo Selassie to send a commission of inquiry to the war zone and to give the Elmpire financial aid. Baron Pompeo Aloisl, the Ital- ian delegate. attended in the Council session but was silent.’ One Italian said: “Italy herself will arrange the Ethiopian ques- tion. We shall not accept any League-imposed peace." The Emperor asked for new eco- nomic sanctions against Italy and for funds. The committee of 13— ‘which is the council without Italy and Ethiopia-turned down his financial request on the ground that the League convention pro- "vlding for financial aid for the ‘victim of aggression has never gone into force. . It characterized as tune" the Negus’ request commission of inquiry. ..Ethiopla’s request for stronger sanctions was turned over to the committee of 19, which meets Wednesday to discuss the general sanctions situation. This group was created to handle all sanctions. It. was believed the committee will appoint experts to determine the effect of existing sanctions and whether a boycott oi oil, coal, Lron and steel could usefully come into force and hasten the end of "inoppor- for a - the war. , It was officially reported that ‘Nazi defiance cf the League in is causing considerable uneasiness among council mem- bers. A report by the League com- missioner in Dunzig today said the Danzig Senate's ideas seemed bas- ed on Nazi principles instead oi the Danzig constitution. ,LONDON, Jan. 20—(A. P.)- Great.

Iii-Canada at the present time the revival oi interest in the breeding of horses is on, of the moot striking of the many activities of the Iibminion in live stock pro- duction. There should be no ques- tion u to the necessity for this in- creased activity. There is a short- lle cfdraft horsesnot only in Canlda but in the United States and Great Britain and it takes at least five years to produce and raise a hmse to the age oi four years. ‘Alootlleaunualwastsgeof horses in the Dominion clue to disease, old age, and other natural causes. is very considerable. While thg number of horses on farms in June, 1885. showed an in- crease over that of June. 1984. it has taken the increased-product‘ of colts in 193s and 1934 to reach the point where tho annual in- crease exceeds the llaérrral wastage of mature animals. At the same time, it must be remembered that the colts oi i984 and 1985 will not enter the ranks of the four-year- oid work horses until 1928 and 1999, while the annual wastage goes on all the time. In appreciation of the situation. the Dominion Department oi Agri- culture has continued its Policies for horse improvement, and breed- ers in increasing numbers are For Canadian Horses Mr. and Mrs. John K.

The Clubbing Policy, for example, which is effective in the Prairie Provinces. makes it possible for communities of fann- ers to secure the services of the best stallions available and retain them in the district from year to year, thus fostering community breeding and co-operstive effort. The Dominion Department of A8- riculturc on its part makes a grant’ to organized horse-breeding clubs of 50 pol- cent of one-quarter of the service fee for each mare prov- ing to be in fo‘ai. In 1935 there were 206 such clubs in operation. Under the Dominion-Provincial Premium Policy, effective in the provinces of Eastern Canada, in British Columbia, and in Saskatch- ewan, the Dominion Department of Agriculture and the Provincial De- partments concerned join on a fifty-fifty basis in inspecting atel- lions and paying an annual 911m‘ ium to the owners of approved 1'68- istered stallions, based on the number of mares left in foal. In 1935 the owners of 539 stallions were eligible for the premium. _ ‘Ib encourage the production of saddle horses, hunters, and horses suitable for remolult. 9°11“. ind light delivery owners. an annual grant is made by the Dcminififl Department. of Agriculture under the Breeding station Policy to the proprietor of a stallion who owns or controls at least three thorough- bred stallions of hunter type. and the services of which are available for mam of the district served by the station. Nine such stations operate across Canada, and in each or m, past three years Canadian station-bred horses have been pur- chased by the Governments of ‘Ih-inidad and Barbados where the animals have proven highly 58W- gutory in constabulary work.

Eighty Per Cent Incolne Roumania From Farming Eighty per cent of the income of the people of Roumania is derived from agriculture so that crop conditions have a very great bear- ing on national finances Poor crops and falling prices in re- cent years have seriously affected the national finances oi Roumania but the prospects for the 1986 sea- son are favourable. In 1934 Great Britain replaced Germany as the chief source of supply for imports, a position Germany held ‘ for a number oi years by a. large margin. For the first seven months of i935. however, imports from Germany were double those from Great Britain for the same period the year previous. During this period, im- ports from the United States drop- per from 996.6 to 170.1 million lei. Canada supplies a comparative- ly small share of the market, most- ly automobiles and rubber tires. Germany takes the greater quantity of Roumanian exports. followed by Great Britain. France, Austria, Italy, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Egypt, Holland, Greece, Belgium.

This does not neces- sarily mean that a drift does not exist, but only that it is not large enough to definitely show itself in the seven lnterveing years .The un- avoidable errors entering into even the best observations would be just about sufficient to mask a displace- ment of the two or three feet a year that has been suggested.

Timothy Seed Supply Plentiful This Year The supply of timothy seed this year will far exceed the demand, consequently the price than it has been for a long .tlme and there is exceptional Oppcrtun. ity for farmers who require seed to purchase only the best quality. At the time of writing the price of no, 1 seed in Montreal is hundred pounds. This is 95 percent is lower $4.50 per of the price demanded last season.

Down in British Malaya the inhabitants are now able t0 procure frozen strawberries from the tempo ate zone supplies have been coming from the United States but inquiries have been made as to sources of supply in Canada, ac- cording to the Industrial Depart- ment of the Canadian National Railways. The strawberries are put up in 30-pound tin pails and placed in mid storage in Singapore. As the strawberries are required. the pails are taken out of cold storage and repaoked in pint milk bottles and sealed with the stand- ard paper milk-boltle cap. About 1B pint bottles are obtained from ‘a 80- pound tin. The milk bottles do double duty, being used alternately for milk and strawberries. Here would seem to be an opportuniby for strawberry growers in the Maritimes. While strawberries are the only berriu now being . sold. there are possibilities that other kinds of fmsen berries would find a market. The demand is mainly from European residents and bet- ter-class Chinese and Eurasians, who though native born, readily acquire a. taste for such delicacies The potential market is placed at about 70,000. ‘--_J‘T"'-——--?——> Tree Planting on Prairie Farms The work beingksn-ied On by "is TM Planting Division at the Forest Nursery Station of the Do. minion Department of Agriculture at Indian Headfhas made possible the beautifying of thousands of WUSDCDI Chflfldihfi firm homes 3,5 well- as Prflviding the shelter which 15 5° "$5"? 0n the prairies. Many outstanding 5 gardens have been made possible only by the sheltering effect; of belts of trees which also store up reserve moist- ure in the form of snow drifts and encourage all kinds of wild life. A well sheltered farmstead is a. much more comfortable place for stock to winter. and in which w do the chores. The results obtained with trees are directly proportional to the amount of care given them, and by proper cultivation the ef- fects of even drought and winter kflllnr can lamly be overcome. The person who makes a hobby of growing and caring for trees generally meets with success in his efforts. and the care given the trees, instead of being regarded as work. is really a pleasure. The choice of a hobby on western farms is somewhat limited, and one which would have a practical as well as en aesthetic value should find wide favour. There are many who have had this idea for years and where this has been s0. beautiful sur- roundings have resulted. even in the most unlikely places. By alter- ing on" outlook on life, work be- comes a pleasure and the world a much more pleasant place in which to ilvc. A number of farmers are inclin- ed to think that they have not the time for this kind of work although they realise the many advantages and will drive for miles to a picnic where some neighbour has well cared for trees. Such places are gathering for the whole com- munity. ral farmers have sul- geeted that would consider en- gaging some e 1y person, inter- ested in trees, who would do noth- ing else but elm for them in re- turn for his board and a small al- lowance. 1111s suggestion might solve difficulties for both parties. 052E TOWN, Jan.
