If eaten at the end of a heavy meal, as is common custom, it may tax the digestive organs, but if eaten as the main dish at a meal which is finished with a light dessert, it is not likely to cause any digestive disturb- ance. When used in cooking, care should be taken that the cheese is not heat- ed too high a temperature as heat will toughen protein foods and make them harder to digest. Cheese is very thoroughly digested. It is all, or nearly all, used by the body to build new tissues and to provide energy for the body to do its work, and for older boys and girls, as well as adults, it is one of the best muscle builders.

Hog Production In Canada Western Canada Taking Lead In Production Of Hogs The geographical trend of hog pro- duction in Canada is interesting. In 1923, 63.8 per cent. of the total hog production was marketed in Ontario, and only 30.8 per cent. in the three prairie provinces. In 1933, 42.8 per cent. of the hogs was produced in Ontario and 55.6 per cent. originated in Western Canada. The plentiful supply of suitable hog feed in the form of coarse grains would suggest, says the annual report of the Do- minion Minister of Agriculture, that Western Canada will continue to be the dominating factor in hog produc- tion.

Tam going to devote my space this Week to giving extracts from some of the interesting readings that have been mafled to readers in the past Week. The problems they embrace will find a counterpart in the case of many of my readers and will, for that reason, prove particularly inter- esting and helpful. J. S., Vancouver—Your girl friend is very proud and sensitive. She is Probably too solicitous of other peo- ple's She is loyal—int ly so to her own personal standards. And she will expect the same rigid code from you. She will be hard to live up to, because she is relentlessly opposed to human frailty. This is not because she is essentially harsh, or callous, or lacking in sympathy. But she has probably been brought up in an at of almost p conduct. I am afraid that you are going to have a very difficult time convincing her that your attentions to the other girl were merely pla- tonic and friendly, Just the same, T suggest that you be quite dignified about the matier. Perhaps, if you show her my letter to you, it will be of some help. irs. A., Brandon—yYour trouble with your husband arises from your lack of understanding and patience. You are invariably ruled by your mind. Your head dictates your views. And, so very often, it is necessary to show some of the milk of -human kindness—and this comes from the heart. Do not Le overbearing. Your husband is having a trying time, like SO many other men to-day. He is undoubtedly doing his best to provide the things which you need. He doing his best for you. And because he is unable to provide you with everything you would like, you sug- gest that he is unaggressive and lacking in ambition and push. Bear in mind that it is always easier to catch flies with sugar than with vinegar. Show your husband more sympathy and tolerance, Miss C. W., Regina—The young Man Whose writing you sent me is a procrastinator, he lacks driving power and accepts things as they are, with- out looking for or expecting any im- provement. He is hardly the right type of man for an ambitious girl like you. Your doubts about him show that you have already thought along this line, and I suggest that you give up expecting the impossible You are still young—only 19. There is lots of time for you to find a more suitable partner. Miss G., Calgary—I think you are troubling yourself unduly about your ae boy friend's feelings for you.

Although still outstanding as a Producer of beef cattle, Alberta has mase rapid progress in dairying. In 1906 there were 42 creameries oper- ating in the province producing near- ly 2,000,000 pounds of butter. At that time there were 100,000 milch cows in the province. In 1933, the previous peak year, there were 96 creameries and 446,000 milch cows. During the past ten years the indus- try has reached a very high standard of production, through various sys- tems of grading of cream and but- ter, and of herd testing.

Old Debt Settled Irishman Was Paid For Meat Machine That Produced Bombs William McLaron now a resident of Montreal, Canada, has been awarded damages amounting to $770 for a sausage-making machine destroyed by Free State troops during the Anglo-Irish troubles more than a de- cade ago. McLaron said the machine turned out sausage by day, but at night a simple change in its mechanism con- yerted it into a bomb maker for the Republican army. Both its sausage and bomb producing days were ended when the Free Staters learned about it. Bermuda's Rail Figures Bermuda's government-owned rail- way, just twenty-one miles long, car- ried 661,524 passengers last year. Trains traveled a total of 220,089 miles, transporting 11,020 tons of freight. With no automobiles per- mitted on the island, there were 40,- 852 bicycle owners last year.

Next day the animals were back home haying made the trip in thirty The homing instinct which is so strong in pigeons and dogs also shows itself in cattle at times. The English language was despised by Francis Bacon, who strove to write chiefly in Latin. Despite this fact, he is chiefly known for his mas- tery of English prose the rge of negatively charged | bodies. Several years later it was observed that crystals of a mineral called fluorite not only became elec- — trically charged by heat but also by j exposure to sunlight or to the light — from an electric arc, both of which | are rich in ultra-violet light. Quartz | becomes charged when exposed 4 | sunlight, the edges of a quartz prism being alternately negative and posi- 3 tive. An insulated metal plate be-, ‘ comes highly charged when exposed — to sunlight. Science has shown that every material is electrically sensi- tive to light, regardless of the state ; of that material. All substances give off electrons when exposed to a suit- able source of light. . we Ultra-violet light will cause solids especially metals, to give off elec- trons. All such electrons which are ejected from any material by light — are called photoelectrons. When light — falls upon films made from the alka-— line metals, photoelectrons are eject ed from these metallic films at hig speed, and it is possible to measure — their speed, the speed depending upon the kind of light which hits the films, — Thus the blue light from the star Sirius will cause more powerful, — though less numerous, electron ejec- “ul tions than full sunlight. * The distance which the light travels through space has nothing whatever to do with its effect when — it strikes and ejects photoelectrons in ~ photoelectric cells. Thus the light which travelled through space at the speed of 186,000 miles per second fot 40 years before striking the negative a Exposition, was just as “strong” when — it approached the telescope as when it left the star Arcturus 40 years be- fore at the time of Chicago's 1893 Columbian Exposition.
