"We must never forget. that pro- duction is only hall the story. We 3:: :.r..::ii::r w-- um or marketing and I think we have " " now reached the point when wo must be thinking of the Iacillties which will be required tor the handling of the sale of cattle. hogs, sheep and lambs.
I fully realize the importance or this matter, and I am quite pre- pared to give every consideration to the provision or facilities and services which are required by the agricultural industry or this prov- But. I believe that if this problem is to be solved in a way. that will be of the greatest benefit to this province. the producers. must take an active interest in itnwith the active and energetic cooperation and support of the" farmers of this province. this problem should not be too difficult of solution."

Strange But True
Dy 1. I. Mullahs, It you were travelling on
the desert mountains or theiweuern United States. you would but sounds like shots from a small
cannon. From where do these crackling noises come? The sounds you would hear are rocks breaking up. Where the air is dry and cools quickly at night, the rocks shrink rapidly and break apart with considerable noise.
In the Grand Canyon the rocks change color constantly as the sun shines upon them. This is what makes the canyon one oi! the most. beautiful natural wonders o! the world. ,
It's amazing the distance sand travels in wind storms. -Heavy gales have been known to carry sand :11 the way across the Med- iterranean Sea to Spain and France. .
The great lcecsp of Greenland is estimated to be at least 1500 miles long and 300 to 600 miles wide. and it reaches to a height of almost two miles in the center. When sec- tions of this lcecap break away and fall into the sea they create dangerous icebergs. it was one of these that sank the Titanic with such a loss of huma lives.
The biggest icecap earth cov- ers most or the continent of Antarctica.
If you are interested in finding out how far away lightning is dur- ing an electrical storm. just count the second it takes the sound of thunder to reach "you. If it takes five seconds the lightning may be reckoned as being one mile away.
Thunderciouds are never very high above the earth. I recall that back in 1947 when I flew from Vancouver B.C.. to Edmonton. A1- berta, I could see the sun shining above the clouds as our plane flew over the Rockies. It was thunder ing and lightning at the time while the plane traveled in bril- liant sunshine some two miles a- bove sea level.
Old Sol makes all the weather. I! it were not for the sun we would have a heartless world. minus winds or rain. Of course the moun- tains and the rivers and the oceans
