An apple a day keeps the doctor away, we The Barrie Examiner adds :â€"“Tw0 apples a help beep the Germans away.” â€" St. Marys Argus. I Sabotage and the necessity for guarding against it ‘is ex lained in a memorandum to industrial executives 'issue this week by the Industrial Accident Prevention 'Associations. The message points out that sabotage is 'an actual fact and must be fought both by industry and ‘the public in Canada. Sabotage, states the bulletin, may ‘take the form of such methods as: Concealed damage to raw materials at sources of supply or during transporta-: tion to points of processing; damage to processing equip- ment; damage to finished product: destruction of manu- facturing plants by fire or explosion; concealed damage to important parts of manufactured articles, possible of detection only after being placed in use; concealment of explosives or incendiary bombs in bulk shipments. or in a ship or freight car transporting such merchandise; in- terruption of manufacture by destrustion of or damage to power plants and power lines. Since the agricultural production of any area is prim- 'arily dependent on the nature of the soils in that area, ‘the information obtained by means of the soil survey 'has manifold uses. One of its most important functions ‘is that it serves as a fundamental basis for classifying“ 'and systematizing the results of cropping, cultural and ‘fertilizer experience and experiments. It is a well known ‘fact that soils vary tremendously in their power to pro- ‘duce crops and in their response to various cultural and ‘fertilizer treatments imposed on them by man. Hence ‘the experience gained on one type of soil may not necess- arily apply to another type of soil even in the same dis- ‘trict. It is only by means of the soil survey that the great 'body of information accumulated on crops cropping prac- tices can be utilized to best advantage. ' Soil survey information can and has been used with ‘marked success in directing settlement to the better soil ‘types, in the planning of proper land utilization, in the 'assessing' of land in accordance with its productive power, lin the direct solution of soil problems and in focussing 'attention on present or potential agricultural problems related to the soil. Lastly, but not least, the soil survey 'gives an inventory of the soil resources of the country, 'a knowledge which is of paramount importance from the ‘national viewpoint. Briefly stated, the object of soil surveys is to classify ‘and describe the soils according to their characteristics, Lparticularly with reference to the growth of crops or natâ€" ive vegetation and to show on suitable maps the location land extent of the diffeent soil types. states A. Leahey, ‘Division of Field Husbandry, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. The soil survey also includes the recognition of 'other factors, especially physical ones, which influence the present or potential agricultural production of the sur- ‘veyed area. ' The soil survey of York County carried out this year ‘under the direction of Mr. W. M. Cockburn, District Re- presentative of the Ontario Department of Agriculture 'should prove of great value to York County farmers. ' The financing of the present war is a question that ‘concerns all of us. Writing in a current issue of The Canadian Chartered Accountant, Professor McQueen of ‘Manitoba University makes the observation that this gen- ‘eration in Canada which must fight the war must also ‘pay the war and that those who tell us that we can make posterity pay are deceiving both themselves and us. We 'shall fight the war by diverting our men and resources 'and equipment away from employment in the usual chan- nels into war channels, and the shortage of things we 'have customarily enjoyed will be felt by this generation 'and only to a very limited extent by posterity. There is 'one exception to this proposition, he states. which has ’only to be noted to be dismissed. Could Canada float loans ‘abroad, which‘ means of course in the United States, for 'her war expenditures she could now, with the proceeds “of those loans, command present American goods for war 'or civilian uses and posterity would have to return the equivalent, of those goods in the future. But we shall 1not be borrowing in the United States or elsewhere abroad 'for many reasons and when we borrow from ourselves by means of domestic issues there is no shifting of the burden ‘to posterity. We divert resources to get war supplies and‘ ‘when the war is over these resources will be allowed to ‘return to their normal employment producing things for ‘posterity. This is a reality from which there is no escape ‘and there is no possibility of burdening the future for the 'sacrifices of the present by taxation, or inflation or dom- ‘estic borrowing. Whether then we resort to inflation, ‘taxaltion or to domestic borrowingâ€"the only lines that will be open to usâ€"the war generation pays the cost of ‘the war. Which of these three methods of finance we ‘should go with each method, the Minister of Finance dis- ‘cussed in a manner that will mark the Budget Speech of 'the Special Session of 1939 as a new high in Canadian ‘public finance documents. In that speech the Minister 'dtated: “First of all let me emphasize that however we ‘finance the cost of the war, whether by taxation or by 'borrowing or by inflation, we cannot escape its real cost.” ‘Such statement, adds Professor McQueen. is completely ‘in the tradition of sound economics and will read as well ‘thirty years from now as it does today.

Ingram has decided; that Dr. Abraham Gerald Ginsberg- of London, Ont., cannot change his name to Avron Gerald Kingsley. This is the first decision made in that district under the changed laws recently enacted ‘by the Ontario Legislature which re- strict to considerable degree the rights of people to assume new names. The written judgment finds “that it is neither fair to Dr. Ginsberg nor to his prospective patients to leave them under the impression that. in calling in Dr. Kingsley they are calling in a physician who is not Jewish. Dr. Ginsberg desires to use the name Kingsley for the purpos e ment “Perhaps it would be a good idea to abolish elections altogether and then all of us would save so much money we could be fairly rolling in it! And think of what a happy prospect for the politicians who happened to be in office when the permanent moratorium on elections came into force.” There is no doubt that the great majority of the peOple of this prov- ince take the view that; Mr. Hepburn and Mr. Gross should reconsider be- fore taking this drastic step. As the Midland Free Press says, no fault will be found with them if they change their minds.â€"â€"Orilllia News Letter. . It is these who believe that Pre- mier Hepburn has had a moderately good record who regret most his in- sistence of going through with the proposal of the Hon. Eric CTOSS, \minister of Municipal Affairs, to \implement legislation which would Indefiniter suspend municipal elec- ‘tions. This most untimely antiâ€" ‘I'emocratic movement, which has been roundly condemned by Liberal and Conservative supporters alike, (has done more to swing popular «sentiment away from the H'epiburn government than any legislation \which he has ever proposed and] there is no question that if he does- n’t change his mind it will be someâ€" thing which won’t be forgotten when the next provincial does roll around, In case the Premier or the Hon. Mr. Gross have any doubts in re- gards to the general feelings to- wards the legislation, they can find out the almost a hundred! per cent unfavorable reaction- by glancing over almost any paper in the prov- .iinlce, the Toronto excepted. Perhaps a typical ex- pression is that given recently in the Windsor Star when it said of the argument advancedI that the election suspension would save money. “Carrying this idea to its logical conclusion, an election every four years would mean just that much more in saving. And then if elections could be held! only at eightâ€"year intervals, think of what a tremendous amount of monev the taxpayers would have â€" or would they?

But in our humble opinion there is at least one paper'pulblished right in our own city that is at the pre- sent moment carrying on a campaign based on political animosity which is infinitely more dangerous than the Clarion.

The King Government accepted this arrangement whole heartedly and placed everything we have at their disposal and with a full and! complete knowledge of the whole situation the two bodies are carry- ing on to the complete and enthusi- astic satisfaction of the British Government. And if the War Coun- cil of the Empire is loud in its praises of what Canada is doing majority of non-pollucal partisans will agree that his rise to power marked an improvement over the previous Henry regime. Every fair- mi<nded citizen will agree that Preâ€" mier Hepburn deserves credit for what he has done, even if he failed in some of his promises. A review of his record will show that he has done much» which has» lightened the load on taxpayers, which even parti- sans should not overlook. As ex- amples, all taxpayers benefit from the reduction: which the premier ef- fected on interest on government loans, and the majority of people have been saved much inconvenience by the removal of the former nuis- ance amusement tax. Motorists also 'benefitted from the reduction ef- fected in the cost of license markers even if he later took some of it back in the form of an increased \giasoline tax. The premier, however, ierased- much of the sting- of this added burden [by increasing the municipal subsidy and thus to an extent lightened the burden on real estate.
