A FARMERS PHILOSOPHY It is refreshing at times to turn from the war news in the daily pap- ers to the far from war-like stories in the agricultural press. censorship, one fears that what is published in relation to the war may not be a complete story, and thus each scrap of news becomes the basis for speculation about the truth behind it. As an intellectual exerâ€" cise, this search for truth ’healthy as working out cross-word lspuzzlies, but less rewarding, because there is nothing to indicate the right answer. The pages of the agricultural press picture another world. The names of Adolf Hitler or Joseph Stalin have little significance there, unless by chance they have been be- stowed on prize hogs. Much more important are such names as Klay- more Roy-a1, Macdonald Dorothy or Johanna Pabst Rag Apple.

Their tures reveal a pride of race has-ed on real achicvcircnt. They are conâ€" tent with their lot, unworricd about war or cconomics. World politics ‘docs not affect. their primary duty of supplying milk and beef and 102!- thcr to the human race. It may he illilt the inherent sanity of the aver-age Canadian farmer comes from his association with the animals who hold thomwelves aloof from the turmoil of the world. He is not free from cause for worry. but he always has so much to do that his time for worry is restricted. He comes, no doubt, to accept the joys and sorroivs of life with the same nonchalance as his cattle ac- cc-pt his ministrations, taking for granted that his hard tasks are im- portant in the general scheme of things and leaving the outcome to a higher power. The city man, who may get more in the way of mater- ial reward. has reason to envy the farmer's philosophy.â€"â€"Printed Word. Tl'RNIP WAXING INDUSTRY When some smart person thought of \Vaxing Turn'ps so that they would be sealed with all the natural juices, he started something that has grown into a large industry, obâ€" serves the VValkerton Herald-Times. Several thousand dollars worth of turnips are waxed in Stouffville evâ€" ery winter at the Drewcry plant, al- though R. E. Brown ships by truck and railways 35 or 45 car loads evâ€" ery season unwaxed. Walkerton and Mildnmay in the INorthern district, have waxing plants and since they have started, the freight business from that town has increased by leaps and bOundIs. Blackwlater too, ships 50 cars a seaâ€" son. Over fifty carloads from Walkâ€" lerton have been shipped so far this lfall, some going as far as Texas. The freight-on one of these cars to Texas is $400. so that when the lmiddleman gets his share for handil- fing, the lowly/turnip becomes a cav- liar of vegetables. Of course, down 'south they call turnips “rutabagas”. A name unknown to our Oxford dic- tionary, and if they call it that they ldeserve to pay more for it. Pass Iup and have another helrping of turâ€" nips, the vegetable with the 'vitaâ€" Imins.â€"-Stouffville Trilbune. lMORE TOURIST ADVERTISING NEEDED Every so often when the mood ‘hits us, we take down our hair and cry out against rising governmental hosts. What‘s :more, we intend to keep at it. ‘ However, certain departments of government have not only escaped criticism on this score but have vacâ€" tually been encouraged by us to inâ€" crease budgets on the basis that ‘such spending was a good investâ€" ment for the country. Notable among such government agencies was the Canadian Travel Bureau which is ‘soon to ask Parliament for its 1940 ‘advertising appropriation. Things being as they are, 194-0 is Canada’s outstanding opportunity to make money out of the tourist busi- ness. The American traveller who formerly went to Europe will find a logical outlet for his vacation d-ol- lar in this Dominion where the cur- rency discount brings him at least pic- ' l l l l l l TliE LIBERAL.

The life of this little child may depend on the PROMPT ACTION of The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. Centralized here under one roof is every facility known to medical science for the effective prevention and cure of childhood disease and deformity. More than 9.000 little children were treated here last year. ONE-THIRD of these children came from Ontario Municipalities outside the City of Toronto. ' i Most of them were children of parents unable to pay the low Public Ward rates. But they were not denied any treatment or care that would assist in their recovery. This humane policy resulted in a ;deficit of $90,000 last year. We appeal to responsible, charitable, Ontario citizens for donations to help us meet this deficit and for practical encourage- ment to continue and expand this work next year. Please . . . the life of a little child may be saved because you were kind and benevolent today. Send your donation, large or small . . . NOW.
