To The Honourable Albert Matthews,
Lieutenant-Governor of the Province of Ontario.
May It Please Your Honour :
The undersigned has the honour to present the Annual Report upon the
Prisons and Reformatories of the Province of Ontario for the year ending 31st
March, 1941.
Respectfully submitted,
H. C. XIXON,
Minister.
Honourable Harry Corwix Xixon,
Provincial Secretary of Ontario.
Sir:
Last year in presenting to you the reports on this branch of the service, I
reported a small decrease in the number of persons committed and those sentenced.
For the year ended March ?>\. 1941, on which I am now presenting statistics there
was a further reduction of 2,200 and 916 respectively. Thus for the two years
there has been a decrease from the all time high of 1939 of eleven per cent in the
number committed and eight per cent in the number sentenced. The following
table shows the number in all the years from 1913 forward.

Note: The fiscal year was chanfred in 1935 to end Alarch 31.
A decrease in the number of prisoners was expected and forecast because of
war conditions, in particular increased economic activity, with enlistment for
active war service a contributing cause. The prison population in Ontario since
this war commenced has, at a higher level, practically paralleled that for the same
period of the 191^^1 — 1918 war.
Some ex-prisoners and some who otherwise would be potential prisoners
have been absorbed by industry, the army, the navy and air force and these are
probably the best of the whole group. Some of them will do well ; approximately
fifty per cent of our prisoners are below normal intelligence ; only fifteen per cent
or less have received any secondarv education. Many are more or less unreliable,
[5]
REPORT OF Xo. 18
but there are many others who will be useful citizens if they can be fitted into their
proper niche in society.
The comparatively small decrease in the past two years clearly indicates that
in general as vet, those who are inefificient. careless livers and have disregarded the
statutes are unwanted by industry and our war services. If and when all other
man power sources have dried up and the demand continues, the story will
probablv l)e different and we may expect the same rapid decline in prison popula-
tion which occurred in the last half of the previous war.
In the three of the four main classifications of crimes there were decreases in
the number sentenced. These were crimes against the person, crimes against pro-
perty and crimes against public order and peace. However, in the fourth, crimes
against public morals and decency, there was a disquieting increase since last
year from 576 to 843 (46 per cent). However, it should at the same time be
noted that this group was only 3^% of all the prisoners sentenced. This deplor-
able increase is likely a natural reaction to war and therefore temporary.
During the past two decades there has been increased failure in home training
of children by parents. In the prosperous twenties (1920 to 1930) it was called
the "Revolt of Youth'". Certainly, many young people broke from home restraint
and went wrong with the resultant rapid increase in our prison population. In
the depression years, economic conditions had two effects. i\Iost of our young
people were up against stark, hard facts and that condition has produced a splendid,
straight thinking and plain speaking generation. There has been, however, a
minority who weaker or more unfortunate, unable to find work and their proper
place in society, resorted to crime. All of us should henceforth take care that a
proper programme of activity is arranged so our young people can do useful work
and retain their self-respect.
Nature absorbs a vacuum and many social service organizations to some
extent took up the work which parents were failing to do. Full credit should be
given to all those citizens who earnestly and generally efficiently, took up the
burden and much could be said of the work which they did in preventing crime and
helping faltering youth. I refer to these facts because the need is still great and
has been aggravated during the war by war conditions, including the absence of
so many fathers.
The institutions caring for the prisoners operated efificiently. Good discipline
was applied and training given. The great majority of the prisoners as usual,
served their sentences obediently. As usual, the small minority who required extra
discipline were chiefly young and previously undisciplined. As in the previous
year there were frequent enlistments from our staff's to the war services. Replace-
ments have been sufificient but are increasingly difficult as the available supplv of
potential officers is shrinking. Furthermore, those who might be otherwise eager
to enter our service are aware that apjK^intmcnts now are temporarv and will
probably be filled when our enlisted officers return.
Because of war requirements, two more of our institutions, the Ontario
Reformatory. Mimico, and the Industrial Farm. Monteith. were in Julv, 1940.
transferred to the Federal authorities for the duration of the war. However, in
PRISONS AND REFORMATORIES FOR 1941
the Summer and Autumn we took off the crops of the Mimico farm with j)rison
labour taken daily from the Toronto Gaol.
The temporary loss oi these two institutions following the previous loss, also
because of the war. of the Industrial Farm. Langstaff. forced us to concentrate
our Reformatory prisoners in the Ontario Reformatory, Guelph. and the Industrial
Farm. Burwash. including the latter's subsidiary, the road camps east of Longlac.
This loss of institutions, to a large extent, disrupted our classification of prisoners.
Our worst longer term repeaters are still sent to Burwash and its road camps
and the others to Guelph. The great majority of prisoners, however, are given
short sentences and serve them in the gaols.
The closing of the Mimico and Monteith institutions required agricultural
re-adjustments. At both we had jutre bred livestock which was the result of many
years careful breeding. This was transferred to Guelph and Burwash and it was
necessary to build additional barns. This was done by using prison labour to the
fullest extent.
Farm crops generally were good and in spite of the wet harvest season,
damage was small. It is necessary in the 1941 crop season to re-adjust various
crop acreages chiefly in vegetables, to maintain continuity of supply to other insti-
tutions.
I wish to commend for your attention the attached reports from the Board
of Parole and the Superintendents. Also I wish to commend them and other
officials and officers for their loyal, efficient attention to duty and to express our
appreciation of your guidance.

Deputy Provincial Secretary.

16 REPORT OF Xo. 18
Reformatories
THE ONTARIO REFORMATORY, GUELPH
May 26, 1941.
Dear Sir :
The attached statistical report of the Ontario Reformatory, Guelph, covers
the fiscal year ending March 31, 1941.
2,056 were committed to this Institution during the year, which is an increase
in commitments of 695 over the preceding year. The total number in custod\-
during the year was 2,899. Our average daily population for the year was 829.5.
an increase of 105.54 over the preceding year.
578 admissions were under the age of twenty-one years. While this six year
group, comprising the ages fifteen to twenty years, is the largest of any age group
in custody here, it is 126 less in number than the same group for the preceding
year. Enlistments and better opportunities for employment seem to be reducing
the number of these lads getting into trouble.
264 of our commitments were convicted for the first time ; 368 were convicted
for the second time ; 276 were convicted for the third time ; 985 were convicted
for more than the third time and 163 were convicted of non-indictable offences,
which are not finger printed and thus no criminal record was available.
Leaving this group of 163 out of the total, we find our percentage group as
follows :
Number convicted for the first time 13.94>;
Number convicted for the second time 19.44^
Number convicted for the third time 14.58* <
Number convicted for more than third time 52.04'^r
100.00'<
It is interesting to note the slight rise in those convicted for the second time
and then the drop for those convicted for the third time. One might hazard an
opinion that this is almost the final turning point. Either the inmate stops crime
at this point or he goes on to become a definite recidivist and to belong to our
large repeater group of 52% of our total commitments.
138 Industrial School l)()ys were committed during the year, which is 34 less
than in the previous year. 523 had been in this Institution at some time pre-
viously, 79 had served previous i)enitentiary sentences. 221 had been in other
provincial or state reformatories and 482 had served gaol sentences.
Intelligence and educational tests were given to all inmates serving over three
month sentences, 379 ])sychiatric examinations were made in the vear by our
Medical Officer. Our inmate population roughly falls into the following groups :
PRISONS AND RRFORMATORTKS FOR 1941 ^
Mental defectives 19'/r
Dull normal intellij^ence 35%
Ncirnial intelligence 46%
This division into these three groujjs does not attempt to give a picture of the
attitude of any individual in any one of these groups to the great prohlem of
RIGHT and WRONG. In the eyes of the law. the criminal is ])resumed to be as
normal and sane as the non-criminal individual, though the law sees in his
criminal activities the predominant behaviour of a particular individual ; criminal
l)sycho])athology sees criminal behaviour as only one aspect of the life of the
individual. The average citizen outside has been conditioned from childhood by
])ressure from all sorts of social, moral, cultural and religious forces, and he has
no great difficulty in deciding what is right and wrong. He is not afraid of the
law and does not come in conflict with it because his life agrees with the cultural
demands of society. However, even the "average citizens" have many different
conceptions of what is right and wrong. For example, this average citizen may
be most honest in all his personal business dealings, but he may see no harm in
cheating a large corporation.
The criminal has not been conditioned from childhood by the proper pressure
of social, moral, cultural and religious forces and he has difficulty in deciding this
question of right and wrong. He may be only wrong on certain of his concepts
and it is quite the common thing for him to look with disgust on other criminals
who commit acts which he would not be guilty of committing. Sexual offenders
may be men of high moral fibre paradoxical as it may seem.
Our inmate rated as of normal intelligence may be a neurotic. He knows the
dift'erence between right and wrong but he gets himself in a maze of conflicts and
is unable to make the choice which is accepted by society. After the deed is done
he has a strong feeling of remorse, but the law only sees his factual behaviour.
Our inmate rated as normal or of superior intelligence often is a psycopath.
He does not use his intelligence for socially useful purposes. He behaves like the
mental defective, as if he lacked intelligence, but perhaps what is most important
he has no feeling whatever for right or wrong. He has remorse only for himself,
when he is caught, but does not feel any guilt. The psycopath lacks moral sense.
The mental defective must be looked upon as an individual witli limitations of
intelligence. He is unable to understand right and wrong, and so the promptings
of his conscience are very dull or absent entirely. Mental deficiency does not
preclude the possibility of his grasping the concept of right and wrong, it only
limits the concept. He also may have coexistence of neurosis, psychosis or psycho-
pathy. In the mental defective, punishment cannot increase his intelligence and so
his grasp of the situation remains the same. After he has served his sentence he
is just as likely to indulge in criminal behaviour as before because the punishment
has not reached the source of his criminality nor can it improve the intelligence
back of it.
The psychopatli lacking the sense of right and wrong, but with a complete
appreciation of moral values, will indulge in the same criminal behaviour regard-
less of the number of sentences that have been imposed and served.
REPORT OF Xo. 18
The neurotic driven by impulse to commit a particular crime such as pyro-
mania, cleptomania, exhibitionism, etc., will accept punishment but it will not reach
the source of his crime because it fails to reach the unconscious motivation. This
then is the reason our Reformatory is filled with repeaters. A normal inmate may
profit by his sentence, in knowing the difiference between right and wrong he
accepts the punishment he deserves, and decides he will have no more of it. He
does not return.
The educational status of our inmates is low. Only 10% have entrance stand-
ing or better. 70% are below grade VI, 207 were illiterate.
An interesting educational survey was completed during the year. 360 letters
were sent to the various schools, inmates had attended. 320 or 84% of the letters
were answered. In 196 cases or 61.25% the inmate gave his correct educational
standing, but the teachers remarks might qualify this standing by stating, — "He
was so troublesome he was passed into this grade because his previous teacher
got tired of him." "He was too big to be kept with the smaller children," etc., etc.
In 124 cases or 38.75% a higher standing was claimed by the pupil than he had
attained. In 160 cases the inmate found it necessary to repeat grades in public
school work. Tests given by our teacher showed that over 50% of those inmates
credited with entrance standing obtained less than forty marks. Very few of the
inmates show an interest in current events. A check has been made on this to a
limited extent, and it has been found that world events more than a year old, or
even of a more recent date mean absolutely nothing. For example, very few can
recall for what Dunkirk is famous.
No reading to any extent is done previous to commitment. Many admit they
never read a complete book before they entered this Institution. Those that have
read confine their efiforts to the cheapest class of lurid magazine. This in itself
might account for the loss of any educational knowledge they had, in a short length
of time.
95% of these inmates have never had a true hobby. Alany list reading and
some few sports, but on questioning them closer it appears they feel they must
give an answer and they pick on either of these subjects. Their interest in sports
is not actually taking part in the play but watching, and reading meant getting the
current issue of some of the now banned magazines.
The school had a successful year. Twelve pupils wrote their entrance examin-
inations and twelve passed, four with honours. Good progress was made with the
illiterate and junior classes. The night vocational classes were well attended.
The library books at the end of the year totalled 4.387. 2.350 volumes were
received during the year 2.155 were discarded from our library from overuse.
405 were sent to the Girls' Training School. A great deal of reading was done by
inmates in the cell block.
Physical training classes were held five nights a week. This is compulsory
for all physically fit young men. Basketball games, and monthly boxing bouts
were held during the winter months.
The general health of the inmates was good. One death occurred from cardiac
decompensation. Twelve major and fifteen minor operations were successfully
PRTSOXS AND REFORMATORIES EOR 1941 19
performed in the Giieliili hospitals, where a total of tliirty-one patients were
treated. The dental clinic gave some 2,879 examinations and 1,783 treatments.
Fifteert inmates were transferred to mental hospitals for treatment. 66 commit-
ments had syphilis or 3.21 '^J. 11 had gonnorrhea or .53%. Two escapes were
made, hoth were recaptured. Discipline was w^ell maintained during the year.
All the industrial departments operated throughout the year. The total in-
dustrial revenue was $530,220.72. Our total profit from all industries was
$19,695.03.
In the ahattoir our total sales of products amounted to 2,143,046 pounds, with
a value of $293,775.01. The auto marker plant produced 807,713 pairs of license
plates. Our cannery production was goods to the sales value of $77,628.71. The
machine shop had a production of goods valued at $12,846.27. The planing mill
turned out products valued at $8,642.71. The tailor shop production was $48,311.52.
The woollen mill production was goods valued at $29,449.80.
On our farm the crops were good, hut excessive rain in the fall somewhat
hampered the harvest. Our farm recoveries amounted to $44,475.80, an increase
of $9,230.00 in value over the preceding year. 493 hogs were raised and sold to
our abattoir at a value of $8,756.40. Our dairy herd produced 794,007 pounds
of milk at a value of $14,483.61.
We are very grateful to those who, during the year, provided entertainment,
religious services, and gave spiritual advice to our inmates.
I wish to commend my staff to you for their conscientious and loyal service.
I wish to thank the Honourable Mr. Nixon, yourself and your staff for the help,
courtesy and kindness extended to us throughout the year.
Yours very truly,
J. D. HEASLIP, M.D.,
Superintendent.
20 REPORT OF X" 18
THE ONTARIO REFORMATORY. MIMICO
May 27th. 1941.
Dear Sir : —
I have the liDuour to submit this report covering the activities of the Ontario
Reformatory, Mimico, for the year ending March 31st, 1941.
Since my last report numerous changes have taken place at this Institution.
Early in July 1940 the main block of buildings, including dormitories, kitchen,
offices, power plant and industrial buildings were taken over by the Military
Authorities. This resulted in drastic changes in our personnel and program for
the year. The inmates were transferred to the Ontario Reformatory
Guelph and Toronto Jail. Some of our officers were transferred to Guelph,
several enlisted in the army and a few remained to operate the farm lands
not taken over and harvest the crop sown in the spring. The herd of pure bred
Holsteins. built up to considerable proportions, all being registered and on R.O.P.
Test, and comparing favorably with outside herds as to milk production and butter
fat test, were transferred to Guelph. Our hogs were also transferred to Guelph
and our poultry stock was distributed between the Training Schools at Gait and
Bowmanville. Our horses were retained to take care of the farm and harx'est the
crop.
The farm work has been carried on by having a number of inmates brought
out from the Toronto Jail each morning and taken back again in the evening.
Harvesting was completed under trying conditions. Owing to heavy rains and
windstorms, crops, which were very heavy, were flattened entailing extra labour
and considerable loss of grain and straw. Had normal conditions prevailed the
yield of grain would have been exceptional — for instance 12 acres of fall wheat
yielded 573 bushels or an average of 47^ bushels per acre.
A summary of the production from our livestock prior to transfer and the
larger items of the garden and farm crops turned over to other Institutions is
given below.
Livestock : — 43 Hogs for slaughter.
7 Cows for slaughter.
5 Calves for breeding.
87,735 lbs. of Milk.
Poultry : — 356 doz. Eggs.
Garden and Farm : — 573 bus. Wheat
1.500 bus. Oats.
225 bus. Barley.
1 27 tons Hay. '
97 tons Straw.
14.631 lbs. Beets.
54.289 lbs. Cabbage.
I'RISOXS AND REFORMATORIES FOR 1941 21
32.805 lbs. Carrots.
37,000 lbs. Mangels.
15.542 lbs. Onions.
12,714 lbs. Parsnips.
99.695 lbs. Potatoes.
2,500 lbs. Rhubarb.
2,795 lbs. Tomatoes.
18,500 lbs. Turnips.
The health of our inmates was good. There were no outbreaks of illness due
to care exercised by Dr. D. S. MacLennan, Institution Medical Officer and Mr.
J. H. Deacon, our male nurse.
I desire to express my personal thanks to Honourable Mr. Nixon, yourself
and members of your staff for valued advice and counsel and to the staff of this
Institution for loyal support. I wish also to express my thanks to Reverend M.
G. B. Williams, Anglican Church, Rev. C. E. Dyer, United Church, Reverend
Father McGrath, Roman Catholic Church and the Salvation Army for untiring
efforts in caring for the spiritual welfare of our inmates.
Yours sincerely,
J. R. ELLIOTT,
Superintendent.
22 REPORT OF X .. 18
ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE INDUSTRIAL FARM, BURWASH. ONTARIO.
April 1st, 1940 to ]\Iarch 31st, 1941.
I have the honour to forward the following report for the year ending March
31st, 1941.
Owing to the Department of National Defence taking over some of our
Institutions for Internment Camps, considerable changes have .been made these
last two years. Our Branch at Monteith was transferred in July of 1940, and
the prisoners transferred, some to the District Gaols and some to Burwash. Those
of the Staff who wished to be were transferred to Burwash, and all the stock,
machinery, etc., were returned there also.
The plan of sending inmates up to Seagram to work on the Trans-Canada
Highway worked out very successfully. They did a lot of work, and except for
a verv few, behaved themselves and were able to earn a little money to help re-
establish themselves, after their release. The inmates under experienced Officers
and Guards from Burwash, and a resident Engineer of the Department of High-
ways, erected camps, cut logs, helped operate a portable sawmill, cut logs into
lumber to build more camps, operated trucks and graders, dug ditches, graded
roads and cut down right-of-way so well that at least eleven miles of road will
be completed by this fall, with about thirty miles of tote road cut for the hauling
of supplies and equipment. Seventeen inmates escaped or attempted to escape,
but all were recaptured.
At Burwash, we had a very successful but busy year ; having plenty of rain,
when needed most. We had a very heavy crop of hay and will have some stacks
left over for next year. Our grain was good but owing to the wet fall, it was
hard to harvest, and a small quantity spoiled ; our potatoes w^ere poor as the wet
weather rotted them in the ground ; but our garden vegetables were good, and
being well stored, we are using cabbage, beets, parsnips, turnips and carrots today
that are just as firm as the day we stored them. This helped considerably in
keeping down the cost of our meals and also gave the prisoners fresh vegetables
to eat.
Our cattle, sheep and pigs increased greatly and from our dairy herd we
had an abundance of fresh milk. Owing to the difficulty and cost of buying horses
every year, to replace those dying off, and to enable us to get a younger and better
grade of horses, the Department bought us fourteen young mares and a registered
Belgian Stallion. By these means, we propose to raise our own colts, and in time
this should prove a very economical way of getting and keeping young, strong
horses for work.
Last summer all inmates not engaged in Camp or Farm duties were kept
stumping and clearing land for cultivation and the stumps were split for firewood
for use at the power house. We ploughed one hundred and fourteen acres of new
land last fall, and this will be cultivated and seeded this summer.
PRISONS AND REFORMATORIES FOR 1941 23
Due to the closing of Monteith and the transferring of the stock, we had to
build a new barn. Although we started late, in three months, with prison labour
only, we completed a barn 96 ft. by 45 ft. with feed room and roothouse at one
end and stabling for forty-four cattle. In the winter the prisoners were engaged
in the bush, one large gang cutting firewood for our heating plants and another
gang cutting, skidding and hauling twenty-two thousand logs to our sawmill to
be cut into lumber this summer. This should give us around a million board feet
of good lumber.
Although our count of prisoners was higher than ever before, owing to the
closing down of some of our other Institutions, discipline was excellent during the
entire year. Only fourteen men attempted to escape but all were recaptured and
there was no trouble, agitation or complaint. The men, doing much good work,
were fed nourishing, well-cooked meals. When weather permitted they were
allowed to play baseball on Saturday afternoons. In wet weather and in the
winter they were allowed to box, play cards, checkers and dominoes. At Christmas,
they had a concert arranged with their own talent and with their own orchestra.
They are allowed papers, good magazines, and books. With a loud speaker
installed in every dormitory and camp they hear all news broadcasts, good plays
and music. The health of all inmates and staff was excellent throughout the
year.
Discipline among the staff was very good. Quite a number of the staff
enlisted in the Army, Air Force and Navy and a number of new Guards were
engaged to replace them. Our new Guards were all given lectures on organization
and administration of prisons and reformatories, and of this institution in par-
ticular. They were also given lectures on discipHne, conduct and the handling of
prisoners. A course of instruction was given in musketry for rifle, revolver and
practice shooting at our rifle range, and all succeeded in passing the test.
In conclusion I wish to thank The Honourable Harry Nixon and yourself for
your valuable advice and counsel throughout the year, and those members on your
staff' who work with us; also Major Talbot, of the Salvation Army, a man who
works long and hard for the spiritual welfare of our prisoners, and also the other
Ministers of the Gospel who visited us at different times.
I would like to point out that my staff has worked efficiently and hard, and
that the smooth-ruuning of this Institution today is in a large measure due to their
loyalty and devotion.
Yours very truly,
H. W. Powell,
Superintendent.
24 REPORT OF Xn. 18
MERCER REFORMATORY,
Mav21. 1941.
Mr. C. F. Xeelands,
Deputy Provincial Secretary,
Parliament Buildings,
Toronto, Ontario.
Sir:
I have the honour to submit the Annual Report of the Andrew Mercer
Reformatory for Females for the year ending March 31. 1941.
The population at the beginning of the year was 124. During the year 350
w^ere admitted. 63 were released on parole. 5 were released by Order-in-Council.
11 by ])ayment of fine and 1 by remission of sentence. As will be seen from the
attached statistical tables, 7 of the 350 inmates received sentenced of less than 30
days, 58 were under 60 days, 27 were under three months. Such short terms give
no opportunity for satisfactory training in any one craft. Four inmates were
under 16 vears of age when admitted. Diversity of sentences for the same oflfence
causes confusion and discontent in the minds of those sentenced.
I wish to draw your attention to the fact that from time to time among the
commitments are those who are mentally defective, insane or physically unfit. Their
condition often is obvious even to a casual observer, and their admission here
interferes with the administration and discipline of our institution. During the
year 6 were transferred to mental hospitals. I recommend that a mental examin-
ation be given each person admitted to this Reformatory.
The separation of the different classes confined here would have better results
if we were able to complete the segregation by having separate diningrooms for
them.
Interior improvements begun during the year are still incomplete. The in-
stallation of the new locking system throughout the building, and the modern type
fire-escape built within the walls of the west section and with numerous exits from
each floor, provide much greater safety. The building is now well equipped with
fire-escapes.
A small greenhouse, in which to preserve and cultivate our plants, is badly
needed and such an addition would have an aesthetic as well as an economic value.
We also require a fireproof shed in which to store paint, to obviate the fire hazard
in the present arrangement of storing paint in the basement of the building.
I am most grateful to the clergy and Sunday School teachers who have given
so generously of their time and endeavour, and to all others who have contributed
in various ways to the comfort and entertainment of the inmates. Whatever good
work may have been accomplished in this institution has been due to the co-oper-
ation and continued efforts of the meml)ers of the staff.
May I ex])ress my gratitude for the kindness and assistance which I have
received from you. sir. and from the officials of your Department during the past
year.
I have the honour to be, sir.
\Vnir obedient servant.

Board of Parole
AXXUAL REPORT OF THE ONTARIO BOARD OF PAROLE
For the Ykar Ending Marctt 31st. 1941.
The great essential work of the Ontario Board of Parole is the re-establish-
ing of the offender and his restoration to society as a respected citizen ; yet. there
is an unsentimental monetary side to the work as well. A man inside an institution
is a decided liability, owing to the cost of maintenance b}^ the Province, but on
going out to remunerative work he becomes an asset, whole families are by the one
process removed from dependence upon charital)le organizations and municipal
relief. The Ontario Parole System has, through its efforts during the year just
ended, proved an effective instrument of rehabilitation. Through the closer super-
vision of men and women under this system, particularly toward home and family
obligations, a decided improvement has been evidenced. Closer co-operation with
both municipal and j^rovincial police, assisted materially bv the public, owing to a
more sympathetic understanding of the system, a finer spirit of human relation-
ship now exists. The Board, we believe, through its officers, has now created a
better understanding with men and women under its supervision.
Owing to conditions which existed until recently it was difficult in many
cases for inmates who had been granted parole to secure employment. l)ut in the
majority of cases this was arranged.
The personnel of the Board was not changed during the year and is composed
of : J. F. ?\IcKinley, L. J. Long. A. F. Hatch. R. S. Clark. W. B. Common and
Mrs. D. Strachan.
The Executive Staff of the Board is comprised of C. F. Swayze, Chief
Officer and Secretary, G R. Trunibell, Assistant Parole Officer, four stenographers
and one filing clerk.

The Salvation Army
A REPORT OF THE PRISON, JAIL AND POLICE COURT WORK
IN THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO.
For the Year Ended September 30th, 1940.
We submit a brief report of the work done by The Salvation Army in the
Prisons, Jails and Police Courts of Ontario.
Our officers are continually in touch with the inmates of the various Institu-
tions, and every man on discharge — if he has no place of residence — may be accom-
modated at our Home during such time as he is seeking work or arranging to
return to relatives. In Toronto there is a special building for the accommodation
of discharged prisoners, and a number of officers are exclusively employed in look-
ing after the interests of discharged men and their families.
It is very difficult for a man leaving prison to regain his former place in society,
but many do so, and often the way is made easier for the man by arranging with
out officers prior to his release, to meet and welcome him.
Of course it is generally known that in the case of law-breakers the real
sufferers are the wives and children. Prisons as a rule, are far more comfortable
than many of the homes in which the families live, and prison fare is far better than
that which many working men can supply their families.
Prisoners' Welfare Work
It is well that even the law-breakers should be spared unnecessary punishment
while in prison, but it is sad that the innocent should suffer at home for the wrong-
doer. The Salvation Army, as far as the funds at its disposal will allow, strives to
alleviate the condition of the dependents of prisoners. In practically every town and
city our officers are available for visiting the families of men in prison and helping
the man on his return home.
The experience of The Salvation Army goes to prove that there is no factor
in the permanent reformation of the wrong-doer so powerful as the effects of
religion, therefore, it is to the spiritual nature of the prisoner that Salvationists
urgently appeal by means of personal interviews and religious meetings. Thus to
the thousands of religious services conducted in the Ontario Prisons during the year,
and the hundreds of personal interviews, plus the contacts in their own homes, and
in the Social Service Office on their release, may be attributed in a great measure
the change of heart an encouraging number of discharged prisoners experience.
In closing I want to put on record our gratitude and thanks to the superin-
tendents and officials of the various Institutions, also the magistrates and crown
attorneys for their real sympathy and help in cases where they feel that mercy can
be extended yet justice done.

TO THE HONOURABLE N. O. HIPEL,
Minister of Public Welfare.
I beg to submit herewith a report covering the activities of the Department of
Public Welfare for the fiscal year commencing April 1st, 1939 and ending March
31st, 1940;
The period under review encompasses the first seven months of the second
World War. in the field of Unemployment Relief, for example, the impact of the
conflict upon this country's welfare serv'ices was not immediate; Unemployment
Relief continued as a major problem with relatively small improvement noted during
the period covered by this report.
In later months, however, the slight downward trend in evidence in the early
part of 1940 became accentuated and the question of providing relief for employ-
able persons is confidently expected to become a diminishing problem as the War
continues. The problem of the unemployable person and his dependents continues,
however, and as this is written, it is this class which forms the bulk of persons in
receipt of relief.
At the same time other welfare services stand to be affected by the accelerated
economic pace which wartime demands. Greater opportunities for employment have
made it possible in a great many instances for persons in receipt of provincial aid,
either through old age pensions or mothers' allowances, to receive a greater measure
of assistance from children and other relatives, thereby relieving the demands upon
the Provincial Treasury. As a corollary, however, new problems have arisen as a
result of the war in the field of Children's Aid work, a salient feature of which is the
vastly increased number of adoptions completed. In the main this development is
the result of a desire on the part of the families concerned to make adequate provis-
ion for children who had been living in their homes for some years, and whose
security might be threatened in the future by the uncertainty of war.
The improvement in the economic picture reposes in the Department of Public
Welfare an even greater responsibilty than existed before in exercising careful sup-
ervision over all welfare expenditures in order that full advantage might be taken
of this altered situation. Although the aggregate expenditure for welfare services
must decline to some extent, it is essential that the high standard of investigation
procedure, with its attendant safeguards, be maintained in order that there be no
weakening in the high standard of administrative work attained in recent years.
In this connection the Department recognizes a two-fold responsibility — to the
taxpayers of the Province who must provide the funds to assist those in need; and
to the persons who have a just claim upon provincial assistance. It is too frequently
overlooked that the present organization of trained investigators is designed to pro-
vide assistance and advice and to ensure sympathetic consideration of every case.
Although not coming within the full scope of this report, it must be mentioned
that early in 1940 the Provincial Government, through its Department of Public Wel-
fare, indicated to the Federal authorities its willingness to co-operate to the utmost
in any progi-am which might be undertaken having as its object the placing of Brit-
ish children in homes of this Province for the duration of the War. With the active
assistance of Children's Aid Societies and officials throughout the Province, extensive
plans were made in this direction and the interest of the people as a whole solicited.
The response was marked and promises well for the ultimate success of this most
worth-while undertaking.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
G. S. TATTLE,
Deputy Minister of Public Welfare.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE OLD AGE PENSIONS COMMISSION
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE
Fiscal Year Ending March 31st, 1940
The Old Age Pensions Act came into effect in the Province of Ontario on No-
vember 1st, 1929. Since that date there has been a g-radual increase in the number
of beneficiaries. At the end of this fiscal year, 59,717 persons were in receipt of
this form of assistance, representing an annual outlay of $13,073,021.00.
The fiscal year under review covers the first seven months of the preseat World
War, a conflict which affects every department of govei-nmental activity as well as
the personal interests of every individual citizen. Insofar as Old Age Pensioners
are concerned, it is heartening to report that even those who are receiving state aid
have not been remiss in manifesting the spirit of self-denial and loyalty. Many of
our pensioners are working daily, as much as they can, sewing and knitting articles
lor the soldiers, while in some cases, those who have been receiving this assistance
have requested that their pensions be reduced and even suspended for the duration
of the War. It is with pardonable pride that the Commission brings to the attention
of the taxpayers of Ontario this spirit of self-sacrifice.
The children of many pensioners are now serving in our armed forces, with the
result that insofar as dependency can be proven, their parents have become eligible
for Federal assistance, thus relieving our Province from further responsibility as
regards the Old Age Pension.
Many difficulties in the administration of the Act which had heretofore been the
cause of regrettable delay, have been overcome. It is hoped that with the continued
and closer co-operation of all bodies having to do with this service, further progress
can be made to expedite the passing of applications by the Commission so that the
applicant may receive a decision at the earliest possible moment.
Recognition is due the Municipal Clerks of the Province and the Local Boards
for the excellent seiwice they are rendering the Commission in can-ying out their
duties under the Act. Another important activity which merits mention is the work
of the Provincial Investigators, whose duties take them into every corner of the
Province.
Special attention has been paid by the Commission to the recovery, where pos-
sible, of funds advanced to pensioners whose estates disclose assets following their
death. The amount of such recoveries has been increased during recent years at a
rapid rate.
The Old Age Pension Commission is also charged with administration of the
Act as it affects blind persons. With the end of the present fiscal year there were
1,333 such cases in Ontario, representing an expenditure of $301,859.00 during the
year.
In conclusion the Commission is pleased to report a more co-operative spirit
shown by our citizens as a whole and particularly by the legal profession of the
Province, who are in a position to x-ender marked assistance to the end of just and
efficient administration of the Act.

Chairman.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MOTHERS' ALLOWANCES COMMISSION
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WELFARE
Fiscal Year Ending March 31st, 1940
In reviewing the work of the Mothers' Allowances Commission for the fiscal
year ending March 31st, 1940, it is well to point out that the proper care and up-
bringing of children concerned in these cases is the first consideraition guiding the
Commission in administration of the Act.
While the Commission must render the final decision as to eligibility, that
decision hinges upon many factors in which various agencies are concerned. First
of all comes the report from the Local Board which, being situated in the community
in which the persons concerne.d reside, is in a position to pass upon the circumstances
as set foi-th in the application. This is supplemented by a detailed report from the
Commission's investigator, whose training makes it possible for each case to receive
careful and sympathetic treatment.
During the period presently under review we are pleased to i-eport that increased
opportunities lor employment have made it possible in many instances for children
to contribute to the support of their mothers, thea-eby relieving the charge upon the
treasury of this Province. In addition many sons of widowed mothers have joined
the armed forces, assigning pay and allowance to aid in the upkeep of the home.
Nevertheless, the work of the Commission and its staff is still onerous and each
case, because of changing circumstances in and out of the home, requires continued
attention. A competent staff of investigators covering every section of the Province
is in constant touch with beneficiaries and in many cases is able to render valuable
assistance and advice in meeting the manifold problems arising in the home.
The problem of the permanently unemployable husband has been receiving the
careful attention of members of the Commission. This has been one of the most
difficult aspects of Mothers' Allowances administration in view of the numerous "bor-
derline" cases in which it is difficult to obtain agreement by medical authorities as
to the degi'ee of incapacitation. Early in 1940 a new method of handling such cases
was established with the co-operation of the Department of Health and although it
was not in full operation until after the period covered by this report, most satis-
factory results can be expected.
The question of granting an allowance to a widowed mother with assets in in-
surance is also being handled efliciently from the standpoint of both the fomier and
the taxpayer as well. In this connection the Commission wishes to mention the fine
co-opei-ation extended by the Judges of our Courts, the Official Guardian, insurance
companies and the various fraternal organizations and service clubs.
The Mothers' Allowances Act in the year now completed, entailed an expendi-
ture of $5,057,286.00, representing assistance to 12,138 homes.

MINISTER OF PUBLIC WELFARE 25
REPORT OF THE MOTHERS' ALLOWANCES COMMISSION
MEDICAL BOARD
Toward the end of this fiscal year, a new departure was approved, with respect
to Mothers' Allowances paid on the basis of incapacitation. Arrangements were in-
stituted, whereby the Department of Health would act in a medical advisory capacity
CO the Mothers' Allowances Commission, reprardinp; men whose families were receiv-
ing Mothers' Allowances or were applying for such Allowances.
The duties of the Medical Board thus formed in the Department of Health were
to be: —
(a) — To conduct a complete medical audit of the 3,285 incapacitation cases for
whom Mothers' Allowances were being paid, as of May 20th, 1940. This
sui"vey would include: —
1. — Extracting the medical evidence already on the Mothers' file in each case.
2. — Consti"ucting a confidential medical file.
3. — Making a critical analysis of the available evidence and, where this evidence
was not considered adequate, arranging to secure, through examinations by
private physicians, investigations in hospitals, etc., the necessary evidence.
(Ari-angements were made for the Department of Public Welfare to pay for
examinations by private physicians, where such examinations were consid-
ered necessary).
4. — Issuing a certificate to the Mothers' Allowances Commission in each case,
whenever sufficient evidence had been secured.
(b) — To receive the medical evidence submitted with each new application for
Mothers' Allowance on the basis of incapacitation; to construct a confiden-
tial medical file for each such case; to secure the new medical evidence as
required and finally to issue a certificate to the Mothers' Allowances Com-
mission, stating whether or not the man in question is believed to be per-
manently unemployable.
(c) — To present to a "Medical Appeal Board" the information regarding those
cases where an appeal is filed and additional medical evidence is received,
against a previous cei-tificate issued in any case by this Medical Board.

Deputy Minister of Health.

28 REPORT OF THE No. 19
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF INVESTIGATORS
FOR
OLD AGE PENSIONS AND MOTHERS' ALLOWANCES
April 1st, 1939 — March 31st, 1940
The investigation of Old Age Pensions and Mothers' Allowances has been car-
ried out during the fiscal year under review according to the policy introduced in
1937.
The division of the Province into thirty-three districts, and the employment of
fifty-six investigators, four of whom aj-e special investigators, has been maintained.
In Old Age Pensions investigations, many calls are frequently necessary to
acquire suflficient authentic information to complete the record of First Investigation.
All documentary evidence as required by the Act must be furnished. Pi'oof of age
and residence qualifications are necessary. Assets, income and all pai-ticulars per-
taining to property and property transactions must be verified. A certified state-
ment of the unmarried children's earnings must be attached to the record of First
Investigation, if earnings are in excess of the minimum wage class. In many cases
the applicant is frequently handicapped by physical weakness, and it is difficult to
obtain the information necessary. This necessitates tact and patience on the part of
the investigator,, and a thorough understanding of human nature.
The assistance given by the Municipal Clerks is gi'eatly appreciated by the
investigators.
In addition to dealing with new applications, the investigator completes an an-
nual report on each pensioner, in order that the Commission may be kept informed
of changes in the economic status of the pensioner.
Investigation on Blind Pensioners is carried through as for Old Age Pensioners.
Investigation on Mothers' Allowances cases is caiTied out with emphasis on the
value of keeping families intact. One of the major acti\dties of the investigator is
to serve in an advisory capacity, in solving essential problems.
In addition to investigation of new applicants, a report is completed each year
and frequent calls are made on many of the Mothers' Allowances beneficiaries.
In the Province for the year under review, 82,318 calls were made by the staff
of investigators, who travelled thousands of miles regardless of weather and road
conditions. The expenditures in salaries and transportation amounted to $108,152.12.
It is planned, during the next year, to enlai"ge on the scope and responsibility
of the special investigator, so that each will become more responsible for the work
of the investigators in her district, rather than sei-ving as extras, as in the past.
Through this personal contact, it is hoped that each investigator will develop a more
thorough understanding of the requirements of the Commission and thereby record
her findings in such a way as to more adequately aid the Commission in reaching
their decision.
Respectfully submitted,
(Mrs.) MARY M. POWELL.

REPORT OF THE
No. 19
DIRECT RELIEF COSTS
For the fiscal period April 1st, 1939, to MaTch 31st, 1940, the Dominion-Pro-
vincial Agreement covering Unemployment Relief provided for a Dominion contribu-
tion of 40% to Material Aid expenditures (food, fuel, clothing, and shelter). In
addition to these categories the Province and its municipalities included medical re-
lief.
Prior to the 1939-40 fiscal period. Dominion contributions to Material Aid were
on a monthly grant-in-Aid basis, which resulted in a much lower contribution from
the Dominion than that received under the new agreement.
Total gross expenditures, and Dominion-Provincial-Municipal contributions for
the fiscal period 1939-40, and comparative periods, were as shown in the attached
schedules.

MINISTER OF PUBLIC WELFARE 31
In the coui'se of the past year the Department continued the policy of assisting
local authorities in reviewing various phases of relief administration. Particular
attention was given in this respect to the cities of Windsor, Niagara Falls, St. Cath-
arines, and Hamilton in addition to many other smaller centres. The co-operation
given this Department by the municipalities concerned has permitted improvement
in dealing with relief administration in an orderly manner and has tended to stand-
ardize the procedure in dealing with the problem and schedules of relief granted.
During the past year with the decided upward trend in employment conditions
due in the main to war industries, much more co-operation has existed as between
the Unemployment Relief Offices in the various municipalities and the Employment
Service Offices. This team-play has been most effective in placing unemployed per-
sons in gainful occupation.
JAMES S. BAND,
Chief Inspector.
32 REPORT OF THE No. 19
FARM REHABILITATION PLAN
From May 1st to December 31st, 1939, there were 60 families, or 406 persons,
occupying' 60 farms, witli a combined acreage of 5,235 acres. During the period
from December, 1939, to March 31st, 1940, five unsuccessful settlers were removed
from the farms; two of these joined the Army. During this time the expenditures
were : Livestock, $14,669.54; Equipment, $7,180.83; Seed, Feed, etc., $4,817.58;
Total, exclusive of rent, $26,667.95. Rentals paid were $8,304.02, while $17,588.55
was the amount granted in material aid.
As these people were receiving food, clothing, fuel, etc., before placing them on
the land, at a greater cost and at least a similar amount to that paid in farm rental
was paid for city rent, it is assumed fair to deal with the cost of these settlements for
the firi-t year on a basis of the cost of livestock, equipment, seed, feed, etc., namely
$26,667.95.
The appropriation for each settler is $600 for livestock, equipment, seeds, etc.,
or a total of $36,000 for the &0 settlers. This leaves a reserve of $9,332.05 to be
carried over for further purchases that will be required in the spring of 1940.
The value of crops grown and increases of stock amount to $21,451.86, which
comes within $5,216.09 of paying equipment costs for the season.
The rental plan provides for the payment of an amount not exceeding $200 per
year for a three-year period, when required. Therefore, $12,000 was provided for
rent for this year, while $8,304.02 was the amount paid.
Number of municipalities participating in the Plan 11
Number of placements on March 31st, 1940 55
Number of persons in families on March 31st, 1940 370
Average persons per family on March 31st, 1940 7
Total acreage as of March 31st, 1940 4,S82
We appreciate the assistance and co-operation rendered by Mr. R. S. Duncan,
Director of the Ontario Department of Agriculture, also his able Agi-iculLural Repre-
sentatives in the different districts who have inspected these farms on different occa-
sions and have so cheerfully responded to any appeal for information and advice.
VACANT LAND CULTIVATION SCHEME
On September 22rLd, 1939, all municipalities and unorganized districts in the
Province were notified that an Act, entitled "The Vacant Land Cultivation Amend-
ment Act, 1939" was passed, effective at once. This permits any pei'son to apply
to the official designated by the municipality in which the applicant resides for a
permit to cultivate and plant vacant land supplied free under the Act.
Each family on the active files of the local relief departments are required to
take a garden plot or cultivate a backyard garden, or produce medical certificate for
inability to work. Their permit is supplied free, with a supply of seeds, including
potatoes and plants, also ploughing is done and fertilizer supplied when necessary.
Any cost incurred to be borne proportionately by Federal, Provincial and Municipal
contributions.
The application of the Act utilizes to the fullest possible extent the employabil-
ity of any relief recipient, man, woman or child over sixteen years of age who has
not already been applied to some other pur-pose.
All produce gi'own by relief recipients must be retained by them for their own
use.
It was also suggested that a communal plot be set aside^ and cultivated by group
effort on a voluntary basis for the benefit of any totally unemployables.
Evei-y local Council is expected to utilize the powers of the Act for the good of
any other person (not on relief) who wishes to obtain, under permit, a gai'den plot
for the use of his family; in such cases, however, a fee, not to exceed $1.00 and cost
of seeds, equipment, etc., is to be borne entirely by the individual.
Immediately following this announcement progi-ams were submitted for approv-
al, and, on accepUince by the DopartmeTit, fall ploughing completed so that the land
would be in condition for early spring planting.
MINISTER OF PUBLIC WELFARE 33
This Spring, seeds, including potato plants, etc., have been purchased and it is
expected that all who pai'ticipate in the jrarden scheme will produce vegetables in
sufficient quantities to more than serve the purpose for which it was intended, which
IS, that the value of the produce grown will offset any loss that may be occasioned to
the purchasing power of the relief recipient's vouchers as food commodities increase
in price.
Many community plots have been arianged for, service clubs, organizations,
manufacturers and citizens are co-operating by supplying land, tractors, fertilizers
and seeds. These same people and many others have volunteered their services for
cultivating and planting so as to supply those less fortunate with vegetables for the
coming winter,
J. D. CLARKE,
Inspector,
Farm Rehabilitation Plan.
Residence Province of Ontario
The residence regulations pertaining to the twelve months gainful employment
period has worked out satisfactorily. A considerable number of cases have been
cleared with the municipalities by the Provincial Inspectors and this Department and
the responsible municipality established for relief purposes. This has avoided the
dumping of families from one municipality to another which was previously being
done by some municipalities. Charge-back accounts between municipalities have
also been cleared satisfactorily.
Inter-Provincial Residence
In order to clarify an,d to have similar residence regulations applicable and uni-
form between all the provinces, on March 16, 1939, the matter was taken up with the
Dominion Relief Commissioner, Ottawa, with the result that the previous residence
ruling of three complete years was changed to read "the individual or family must be
self-supporting by gainful occupation for twenty-four months before gaining resi-
dence when moving to another Province." The clause was embodied in the Federal
and Provincial Agreement dated August 4th, 1939, signed by the Dominion Govern-
ment andl all Provincial Governments.
A considerable number of famlies were removed from the Western provinces to
Ontario and where they wei'e unable to become self-supporting after a reasonable
period, they were issued ti'ansportation and returned to the Province from which they
had moved, all cases previously having been taken up with the responsible Province.
Some families removing from the drought areas in Saskatchewan have been as-
sisted by the Province of Saskatchewan to move to Ontario, relief being granted
through the Ontario municipalities and paid by the Province of Saskatchewan. As-
sistance has been given the Province of Saskatchewan in these cases to re-establish
these families on farms in Ontario and the Provincial Inspectors of this Province
have investigated some of these cases at the request of the Saskatchewan authorities.
Where families have not been able to become self-supporting by gainful occupation
they have been returned to Saskatchewan and such return agl'eed to by the latter
Province.
The inter-provincial residence regulations are working out very satisfactorily.
Transportation
Where a man has been able to obtain bona fide employment, he and his family
being in destitute circumstances and in receipt of relief assistance, transportation
has been provided in conjunction with the municipalities to enable the man and fam-
ly to become self-suppoa-ting and thus reduce the relief rolls.
Dependents of Internees
Commencing in the month of September, 1939, w^here the head of the family
has been interned and dependents were thereby left in destitute circumstances, as-
sistance has been issued to the dependents by the municipal relief departments at the
prevailing relief scale in the community in which they reside on receipt of approval
from the Dominion Relief Commissioner, Ottawa.
The accounts are foi-warded monthly by the municipalities to the Provincial Re-
lief Branch and re-imbursement is made at 1009c by the Federal Government.
ARTHUR T. BOSANQUET,
Inspector.
34 REPORT OF THE No. 19
REPORT OF THE CHILDREN'S AID BRANCH APRIL 1, 1939 — MARCH 31,1940
During the past several years, many local Children's Aid Societies have recast
the organization. This effort was most opportune and has now placed them in a
position to cope with increasing requirements for service as a result of the war.
Each of the Societies has undertaken extra work for the Dependents' Allowance
Board. In some instances this has taken the form of investigatnons for the purpose
of obtaining information for the granting of allowances. In others, it has meant the
supervision of families and the administration of allowances.
While sei-vices of this nature have increased, the regular work of the Societies
has not been neglected. During the year- under review, the Societies were called
upon to deal with 4,577 new complaints of neglect involving 15,661 children. Of the
15,661 children, 1,095 were committed to the care of the Societies as wards. The
remainder of the children remained in their own homes under the supervision of the
Societies. The families, therefore, continued to take their place as a unit in the
community. The programme of prevention accepted by the Societies thus not only
kept the families together but saved the municipalities considerable sums in main-
tenance payments.
Once again, however, it is necessary to emphasize that the whole programme of
family readju.stment has meant that the type of children being committed to the
Societies as wards has increasingly been of those who have to be maintained in pay
care. Either through physical or mental handicaps or because of age or improper
training, they are not easily placeable in free or adoption homes.
Notwithstanding the difficulty referred to above, the number of adoptions com-
pleted for the year has shown an increase. For the year ending March 31st, 1939,
986 adoptions were completed. For the year ending March 31st, 1940, 1,241 adop-
tions were completed. The statistics show that with one exception each of the war
months for the year under review has shov\'n an increase in adoptions completed over
the non-war months. This is explained by the fact that many men who have enlisted
wanted this matter settled before they left for overseas. The same safeguards with
respect to adjustment of the child in the home as hitherto applied have, however,
been maintained. It has also been necessary to keep a careful check lest children be
taken for adoption for the sole purpose of obtaining additional allowances.
At the end of the year the Societies had in care 10,521 childi'en, — a slight de-
crease from the previous year. Of these, 5,458 were in free, wage or adoption piro-
bation homes at no charge to the municipalities. The children in care continue to be
visited at regular, and in many instances, increasing, intei-vals by a representative
of the Society. Periodic health examinations and i-egular checking of school attend-
ances combined with these home visits tend to assure that the children in care enjoy
& proper and normal home life.
A slight falling off in the number of unmarried parents' cases is noted. Col-
lections for the maintenance of children born out of wedlock have increased from
$91,825.76 for the year ending March 31st, 1934, to $94,130.48 for the year ending
March 31st, 1940.
The Provincial Officer has the direct responsibility for administering the Unmar-
ried Parents' Act and the Adoption Act. The representative of each local Children's
Aid Society acts for the Provincial Officer under the above Acts in a local commun-
ity. All matters dealt with under the Children's Protection Act are handled by the
local Society which is a locally autorcmous organization. Ceriain supervision over
the Societies is maintained by the Children's Aid Branch. Finances of these Societies
are chiefly obtained from local private and municipal sources supplemented by certain
provincial contributions. Total expenditures of the Children's Aid Societies for the
year amounted to $1,398,266.75.
It is gratifying to note that the uniformity of practice developed on a Province-
wide basis has placed the Societies in a position to render such service as they may
be called upon to give on the "Home Fi'ont."

Provincial Superintendent.

42 REPORT OF THE No. 19
CHILDREN'S INSTITUTIONS
April 1, 1939 — March 31, 1940
During the year under review, forty-two children's institutions in the Province
provided 673,874 days' care at a total cost of $778,959.82. The average cost per
diem is approximately 85c.
Each of the institutions is subject to periodic visits by Provincial Inspectors
whose reports indicate that the physical care given the children is fairly adequate.
Some units have a dearth of recreational outlets and the programmes could be
strengthened in a number of cases if more consideration weft-e given to the emotional
and cultural xleveloimient of the children in care.
Each institution, before it may qualify for a Government gi'ant, must be approv-
ed under the Charitable Institutions Act. When so approved, it is eligible to receive
a grant of 5c or 10c a day per inmate, depending on age. Such grant is paid twice
yearly. For the past year $64,338.07 was paixi by the Province in grants.
Several institutions arrange to have their children attend nearby schools thus
eliminating the necessity of maintaining a school within the institutional building.
This and many other methods are utilized to make the child's st^y within the instit-
ution as nearly homelike as possible.
B. W. HEISE,
Provincial Superintendent.

REPORT OF REFUGES, HOMES FOR AGED AND INFIRM
The principal aim of all Refuges is to provide a haven for all those aged or in-
ftrm who are dependent and require food, shelter, clothing and other necessities.
The Department of Public Welfare advises -with all Boards of Management, the
Superintendents and Matrons, and all interested persons so that eveiy facility for
ti.e betterment of the Refuges may be secured, and charitable and kindly treatment
be extended to all residents.
The keen sense of responsibility evidenced by most officials is veiy gratifying
to this Department and all are to be commended and thanked for their excellent co-
operation.
The steady increase in the per diem maintenance cost for the last few years may
be attributed to the many improvements and additions to main buildings, the instal-
lation of fire prevention equipment, new barns, etc.
Below you will find statistical figures for all Refuges:

No changes occun-ed in the membership of the Commission during
the fiscal year, April 1st, 1939, to March 31st, 1940, now under
review.
The several meetings of the Commission have been well attended
and all members have shown a keen interest.
No staff changes have occurred during the period. Prompt and
efficient sei"vice has been rendered by all members.
Following the end of the fiscal year, an audit of the books and ac-
counts was performed by a representative of the Provincial Aud-
itor's Department. All books and accounts were reported to be in
order and to corrrectly reflect the operations and transactions of
the Uommisfe.on throughout the yeai. I'inancial staltments will be
found appended hereto.
Services to wards in general is covered by a special statistical re-
port appended hereto. It will be noted that during the year the
number of wards requiring attention from the Commission has been
decreased from 49 to 36. This reduction was due to the marriage
of 3, the coming of age of 9 and the death of 1.
Wards welfare investigations and placements also showed a further
decrease this year to 126 compared to 165 for previous year.
Again this is due to decreasing number of wards and permanent
establishment.
1. Emergency grants for the year number 1,595 as compared with
1,975 for previous year.
2. Geneial 'nformation and advice services rendered to ex-service
men and dependents totalled 2,177 compared with 1,624 for
previous year.
3. Ofiice interviews for this period were 5,546 as compared with
6,184 for previous year,
4. Special information and advice re pension claims, War Veter-
ans' Allowance procedure, etc. number 384 as compared to 314.
The assistance from this fund to widows of veterans, widowed by
the war served 157 cases of emergency or special need during the
past year as compared with 119 in the previous year. The corp^is
of this fund was subject to further increases during the year.
The mci-e precise definition of the scope of application of this fund
as accepted late in the previous year was responsible for increased
services during the year under review.
The Commission were able to secure relief from General Taxatioh
on the one remaining lot of this Estate with the result that income
now exceeds carrying charges. Interest in Real Estate in this area
is steadily improving.
In the settlement the muck soil continues to prove highly product-
ive. Difficulties are still being experienced due to Highway Im-
provement aflfecting road ditches, this tending to aggi'avate drain-
age difficulties.
Negotiations with the Highway Department were continued in an
effort to find a solution of the drainage problem.
Throughout most of the area under crop the quality of vegetables
was excellent, but in some areas excessive moisture adversely
affected the crops.
60 REPORT OF THE No. 19
The health of the settlers and their families has been generally
g-ood, while the drilled well continues to provide a plentiful supply
of first class water.
Some vacancies have again occurred in the group of settlers, through
retirement from settlement to take up other work, or because of
physical inabilities to carry on.
Vacancies thus created have been filled, with the exception of one
which was most seriously affected by the drainage difficulty. It is
felt that the Settlement is serving a very useful purpose in re-
creating ambition and interest in the minds of some who have been,
depressed by unemployment conditions. The Commission has con-
tinued its policy of insistence on harmonious and co-operative re-
lations between the settlers, and is of the opinion that such has been
reasonably maintained.
Supervision was maintained throughout the planting, growing and
harvesting season by a staff member, who sp-ent two days or more
each week with the settlers. This served a most useful and helpful
service and was very much appreciated by those concerned.
With the increased clearing and larger market at Camp Borden, the
prospects of this settlement would be much brighter if the drainage
problem could be definitely solved.
General In reporting on the year under review, we must again gratefully
acknowledge the co-operation of the Honourable the Minister, De-
partment of Welfare, for the interest he has shown in the general
activities of the Commission and for his helpful co-operation.
The Commission also desires again to gratefully acknowledge the
co-operation of Veterans Organizatons; The Canadian Red Cross
Society; I.O.D.E.; The Last Post Fund and all other Organizations
and individuals who have in numerous ways been helpful during the
year.
Respectfully submitted,
E. A. BAKER, Chairman.

Sir :—
I have the honour to suhmit herewith the Fourteenth Rejiort of the Liquor
Control Board of Ontario for the twelve months' fiscal ]^eriod which ended the
31st of :\Iarch, 1940.
Financial Statement
The Balance Sheet, certified to by Alessrs. Robertson. Robinson. ]\lcCannell
&: Dick. Chartered Accountants, shows the amount of fixed assets to be $121,271.10.
This amount represents the value of the Board's real estate, consisting of the land
and buildings situated at 154 Wellington St. \V., Toronto, and 201 Victoria Ave.,
Fort William, occupied as Warehouses, and. the value of all furniture, equipment
and alterations in the various premises occupied by the Board, less depreciation,
which, since the commencement of operations in June, 1927, has been provided to
an extent of $1.001 ,446.32.
Other assets totalled $3,223,645.25 being com])rised of the following items : —
Cash on hand and in transit from branch banks $ 248,635.10
Accounts Receivable — liospital cliarge sales, beer levies, duty recoverable
items, freight claims, fines, etc 257.495.53
Inventories of liquors and supplies 2.701.772.96
Prepaid items 15.741.66
Liabilities amounted to $2,212,217.96 as follows: —
Accounts Payable — for liquors and supplies, accrued charges, etc 2,188,751.56
Due Provincial Treasurer — for permit sales and confiscated stock 23,466.40
Two factors contributed to the substantial increase in stock inventory value
from $2,181,229.31 at the previous year end to $2,701,772.96 at March 31st. 1940.
These were :
(a) Increased Dominion duties on spirits of $3.0<3 per proof gallon which
applied as from September 3rd, 1939.
[51
REPORT OF THK No. 20
(b; The carrying of greater stocks of imported goods as a precautionary
measure against the possibility of prices being raised and deHveries being
pre\ented through enemy action.
Sales of permits during the twelve months amounted to a net figure of
$487,736.38 which with the amount unpaid from the previous year of $2,133.30
totalled $489,869.68 of which $475,000.00 was remitted to the Provincial Treasurer,
in accordance with the requirements of the Liquor Control Act of Ontario,,
Section 18 (2).
The item of $8,596.72 represents a balance due to the Provincial Treasurer for
forfeited liquor, which was purchased by the Board after careful examination, and
in accordance with the provisions of Section 132 (2) of the Act.
Contingent liabilities amounted to $2,410,108.00. These items comprise the
value of undelivered orders and. also, the amount of customs or excise duties which
will have to be paid on the goods which were in bond on our premises March 31st.
when the same are cleared. These items are not chargeable against, nor do they
effect the operations of the Board for the period under review.
The Profit and Loss Account shows sales for the twehe months from Liquor
Control Board Stores of $22,820,689.73.
The same account shows a gross trading profit of $8,642,906.51 with total
expenses including depreciation and items written oft, of $1,862,047.59 which
resulted in a net trading profit of $6,780,858.92. This latter sum together with
other revenue which amounted to $3,783,317.97 resulted in a total profit of
$10,564,176.89. which is carried to the Surplus Account.
For the pur]wse of comparison, the ]iercentage that the cost of stock sold,
miscellaneous earnings and expenses and other revenue bear to the sales are given
for the fiscal year of 1939 and the twelve months' period herewith reported upon.
The Surplus Account shows a balance at the commencement of the period
of $47,198.57. this being the amount of accumulated profits from previous years'
operations which had not been transferred to the Provincial Treasurer. Added to
this is the twelve months* profit of $10,564,176.89, which, together with $3,677.07
representing sundry adjustments, resulted in an amount of $10,607,698.39. From
this sum, $9,475,000.00 was remitted to the Provincial Treasurer. The total
payments to the Provincial Treasurer during the twelve months were, therefore: —
On Account of Profits $9,475,000.00
On Account of Permits 475,000.00
$9,950,000.00
Besides the Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss Account, and the Surplus Account
a statement showing the Ex]-)enses of Administration and Operation (Schedule H
for the twelve months is also attached. Individual percentages which these exj^nses
bear to the total sales are given for the twelve months and also for the jireceding
fiscal period. On March 31st, 1940, the staff comprised 8S>7 employees. 62 of
these being part time or seasonally employed as against 829 permanent and 44 jtart-
time enij^loyees at the previous year-end.

Win FRIES
In co-operation with the Hoard, the I'rovincial Department of Health con-
tinued its analytical work with res])ect to the products of all Ontarif) wineries, for
the purpose of ensuring conformity to satisfactory standards. This constant super-
vision through periodical analyses has resulted in continued improvement in quality
in all types of native wine. During the year 311 samples were tested.
In September 1939, the Domininon Government, through an amendment to the
Special \\'ar Revenue Act. raised the gallonage tax in native wine. As a result of
this action, selling prices of native wine were ad\anced on September 14th, 1939.
No changes in ownership of Native Wine Licenses occurred during the year
although the coqiorate name under which T. G. Bright & Company. Limited, had
been licensed was changed on September 29th. 1939 to "Bright's Wines, Limited."
The following transfers of Sales Ofifices to other premises were authorized
during the vear : —

10 REPORT OF THE No. 20
During the year, the tonnage of grapes used in the manufacture of wine,
concentrates, grape juice, and brandy, was 13,679 tons for wine; 2,242 ton? for
concentrates; 559 tons for grape juice; and 2,370 tons for brandy.
One hundred and eighty-four tons of cherries were also used for wine making.
During the preceding year, 179.940 gallons of native w-ine were distilled into
grape spirit for wine fortification, while during the year under review 176,564
gallons were used for such purposes.
The sale of Canadian Brandy — a product of the Ontario grape — continued in
good volume, amounting to 13.859 gallons.
At the close of the year, there were twenty-three winery licenses operative,
tliis number being unchanged from the end of the previous year; direct sales to
customers being made from the premises of seven wineries and forty-two branch
retail sales shops.
HoME-]\L\DE \\"ixE Permits
Regulations designed to check the bootlegging of home-made wine were
promoted by the Board and became effective January 1st. 1940. These regulations
require that any person manufacturing more than 100 gallons of home-made wine
must obtain a permit from the Board. The issuance of these permits commenced
on Januarv 10th. 1940. and up to and including March 31st, the end of period under
review, 733 home-made wine permits were issued. From the applications sub-
mitted, a computation shows that 1,386 tons of Ontario-grown fruit were used in
production of the home-made wine covered by the above permits and that 167,178
gallons were made. It is confidently expected that the regulations in question will
control the situation and eliminate a lot of abuses heretofore existing.
AfTHORITIKS FOR THE SaLE OF BkKR AND W'lXE.
Complete details by Municipalities of the number of Authorities which were
issued, cancelled, suspended or surrendered during the year, together with rein-
statements, are set forth on Schedule IV.
On March 31st, 1940 — the end of the fiscal year— there were one thousand,
one hundred and seventy-six Hotel Authorities in operation, two hundred and
thirty-four Club Authorities, one hundred and niiK't\-(nie Military Mess Authorities
and one Railway .Authority.
Authorities were issued for si.x months to fifty-one Summer Hotels. Ot
these, two were extended to an annual basis after payment of the required
additional fee.
Eflfective September 18th. 1939, the fee for Hotel, Railway and Club
Authorities was increased from six to seven cents jx-r gallon of beer purchased.
No increase was made with resjx'ct to the levy on wine liought (5%) and the
minimum fee of $300.00 per annum for full year Ht)tel and Railway Authorities,
$150.00 for six months' Summer Hotel Authorities. $100.00 for Social Clubs and
$50.00 for Soldier and Labour Clubs remained unchanged.
LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD FOR 1940 11
The annual fees for Steamship Authorities and ^Military Mess Authorities
were continued at $50.00 and $10.00 respectively.
The Board's stafT of inspectors visited and reported regularly upon all author-
ized premises. Full co-operation of Municipal and Provincial Police throughout
the Province was obtained and resulted in improved conduct and management of
numerous premises. It has been found that, generally, Authority Holders desire
to conduct their businesses and prO])erties in strict compliance with the Act and the
Regulations but there are a few who are interested primarily in profits without
regard to ]-)ublic reaction. These are, however, small in mniiber and are, of course,
subject to greater supervision at all times.
Payments to Muxicip.alities
In accordance with the Act and the governing Order-in-Council, the Board
paid to the various municipalities 20% of the fees received from their local hotel
authority holders. Three hundred and twelve municipalities ])articipated in this
disbursement which totalled $223,639.75. same being paid May. 1940.
Hotels
On i\Iarch 31 st, 1940, one thousand three hundred and thirteen Standard Hotel
Licenses were effecti\'e, of which one thousand one hundred and seventy-six pos-
sessed an Authority to sell beer and wune ; thirty-eight were holders of Light Beer
Permits and ninet\'-nine helfl only the Standard Hotel License. There was no
change in fees.
As mentioned previously, the Board receives a detailed annual report from
its twenty-three Inspectors covering all Hotels in the Province, and additional
thereto, conduct reports at least once a month. Further progress has been made
towards the improvement of hotel accommodation throughout the Province.
Special attention has always been given to the question of fire prevention and the
safety of guests. Close contact has been maintained with the officers of the
Provincial Fire ^Marshal's Department and the Department of Health with a view
of continuing the improvement of conditions in hotels and other authorized
premises.
Permits
From April 1st. 1939 to March 31st, 1940, there were 45,016 individual
Annual Liquor Permits issued. The sales of Single Purchase Permits totalled
2,732,493. Individual Permits sold to non-residents, valid for a period not
exceeding one month, numbered 17. In addition 2,007 Special Permits were issued
to Physicians, Druggists, Hospitals, etc.
During the year, the Board continued to give full co-operation to municipal
officers and departments administering relief.
In many municipalities relief authorities keep hotels and other authorized
vendors of liquor supplied direct with up-to-date lists of persons on relief, and, in
keeping with the Board's policy, every endeavour is made to prevent such persons
from buying intoxicants.
12 REPORT OF THP: Xu. 20
In accordance with the requirements of the Act, the Board, after thorough
investigation, deemed it advisable during the year to issue 3.001 Prohibitory Orders.
Such action followed either notification relative to conviction for violation of the
Act, or the receipt of a request or recommendation fnjm some interested party,
such as a relative, friend, magistrate, ])olice officer, physician, relief officer, etc.
These Prohibitory Orders comprised 657 full Board Orders which precluded the
individual concerned from purchasing alcoholic beverages from any source, of
which 31 resulted from Judges' Orders of Interdiction and 42 from conviction for
intoxication while in charge of a motor vehicle. In 71 other cases it was deemed
advisable to afTord the individual restricted purchasing privileges only.
The remaining 2,273 were Orders which cancelled the individual's privilege
to ])urchase alcoholic beverages for home consumption.
With respect to the 2.273 cases referred to, 859 were the result of con-
victions having been registered under the Criminal Code of Canada for intoxication
while in charge of an automobile. A further 799 followed the conviction of the
individual for violation of the Liquor Control Act, and the j^remises of 578 of these
were declared a "public place" within the meaning of the Act. The other Orders
were issued as being in the best interests of all concerned according to the judgment
of the Board from the available information at hand.
During the year, after full investigation and consideration, it was decided
to revoke 350 of the Prohibitory Orders which had been made efifective at some
prior date.
1,634 Special Permits were issued to Druggists. These Permits allowed
the druggist to purchase alcohol in limited quantities for compounding and
pharmaceutical ]HU-poses and also accorded him the privilege of buying rubbing
alcohol for re-sale. The premises of all holders of Druggists' Special Permits
were subject to periodical inspection, and, in addition. Druggists were required to
file monthly with the Board a report of all rubbing alcohol sales.
Efforts were C(jntinued to ])revent the use of rubbing alcohol as a l)everagc
and during the year the names of two hundred and forty-eight addicts were posted
with all druggists in the larger communities of the Province.
For failure to comply with the Board's Regulations, it became necessary
during the year to cancel or suspend eight Druggists' Special Permits.
Gener.\l
In conclusion, the Board herewith records its appreciation for the earnest
efforts of the Staff throughout the year.
I have the honour to be. Sir,
Your obedient servant,
A. St. C. GORDON.
Chief Co)iunissio)icr.

ONTARIO AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
With the declaration of war in September, the College was faced with
new problems. In addition to increased work on the campus, there was a
much larger demand on members of the staff from the people of the
Province. Individuals, as well as organizations, were giving consideration
to production and marketing. They were seeking assistance on better plans
and methods. This offered an opportunity to give valuable assistance.
Members of the Staff have taken an active part on the Ontario Feed Board,
the Ontario Fertilizer Board, Poultry Industries Committee, Animal
Nutrition and other committees.
In early September, the Chairman of the National Research Council
issued a statement to all universities and colleges urging students to con-
tinue their courses and to prepare themselves for the larger work which is
bound to come through the years. This appeal met with a most favourable
response on the part of the young people. They have taken their work
seriously and have applied themselves in an effective manner. A wide-
spread interest was taken in the Canadian Officers' Training Corps which
was under the leadership of Major E. W. Kendall, assisted by members of
the Staff. The Corps had an enrolment of 254. More than one hundred of
this group made plans to take part in the Summer Camp held at London
in June.
In January, 1940, courses in Foods and Nutrition were organized for
R.C.A.F. chefs with the object of teaching these men the best possible use
of army rations. Sixteen chefs are accommodated during each six-week
period. In the preparation of the courses, helpful assistance was given by
Dr. F. F. Tisdall, Chairman of the Committee on Nutrition of the Canadian
Medical Association; Miss V. M. Ryley of the T. Eaton Co., and Miss E.
Middleton of the Central Technical School, Toronto. In these courses we
have had the full co-operation of the Departments of Animal Nutrition,
Macdonald Institute, Animal Husbandry, Horticulture, Bacteriology,
Biology, Dairy, Poultry and Trent Institute.
Under the Dominion-Provincial Youth Training Scheme, forty-seven
young men took a Two-Weeks Course in Agriculture, February 19 to March
2. These young men were under the leadership of Mr. Alex. Maclaren.
ATTENDANCE
Attendance at the College continues at a high mark. The dormitories,
laboratories and classrooms are filled to capacity.
In the general courses in agriculture there was an enrolment of 598.
Macdonald Institute had an attendance of 220. The special Two-Weeks
Courses in Agriculture, held December 27 - January 9, had a total of 749.
The Summer School for Teachers, Dairy Short Course and other courses
brought the total enrolment of the year to 2,372.

Superannuation of Dr. 0. J. Stevenson
After twenty-three years of continuous service, Dr. 0. J. Stevenson,
Head of the Department of English, retired on June 1, 1939. Dr. Steven-
son has long been interested in Canadian literature and art and was made
a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in recognition of the services he
has rendered. He is the author of many text books which are in general
use in schools of the province. He was editor of the Canadian School
Shakespeare and author of "A People's Best" and "The Unconquerable
North."
A graduate of the University of Toronto in 1893, Dr. Stevenson was
Associate Professor of Education at Queen's University for four years.
Later he served as Head of the Department of English, College of Educa-
tion, Toronto, and in 1916 joined the staff of the Ontario Agricultural
College as Professor of English.
Appointment of Dr. G. E. Reamun
Dr. Reaman came to the College as Head of the Department of English
on September 1, 1939. He brings to this position a wealth of experience
and a deep interest in young people and farm life.
After graduation from the University of Toronto in 1911, Dr. Reaman
travelled in the British Isles and on the Continent. In 1920 he took his
Doctor's Degree at Cornell University where he specialized in Rural Edu-
cation and Rural Economics. During the past six years he has served
as Principal of the Glen Lawrence School in Toronto where he taught
English and Moderns.
Professor E. H. Garrard Heads Department of Bacteriology
On September 15, 1939, Professor E. H. Garrard was appointed Head
of the Department of Bacteriology.
Professor Garrard was graduated from the Ontario Agricultural
College in 1927 and has been associated with the Department since the
fall of 1928. He went to the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, on
exchange with A. Jones, 1937-38. His time there was spent on research
problems relating to bacon spoilage. In 1938, he was granted the M.S. A.
degree by the University of Toronto.
Professor Garrard, with outstanding administrative ability, a re-
search worker and a teacher, gives to this Department strong leadership.
8 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Death of Dr. Roland E. Stone
Another great loss has come to the College through the death of Dr.
Roland E. Stone, Associate Professor in the Department of Botany.
Dr. Stone had been with the College since September, 1912, during
which time he was a force among the students. In his research work
in Plant Pathology he gave valuable assistance to farmers. He was an
enthusiastic follower of athletics, serving for a number of years as
Assistant Coach of the Rugby team.
Dr. Stone was born at Harvard, Nebraska, November 4, 1881. After
graduating from the University of Nebraska, he received his Master's
Degree from Alabama Polytechnic Institute and later took his Doctor's
Degree at Cornell University.
Farm and Home Week
Farm and Home Week, held June 19 - 24, brought to the campus,
from all parts of Ontario, more than 17,000 farmers and their families.
The opportunity to meet members of the staff and study the work of the
various departments is sincerely appreciated. One is impressed with the
keen interest shown in the many projects under way and the demand for
information. Much evidence is available to show that the time is used
to good advantage and that the farm and home practices benefit in a very
direct way from the information gained. Farm and Home Week is a
demonstration of the extensive contacts made by the College with the
farmers of the province.
RESEARCH AND SERVICE
In addition to the work of instruction in the regular and short courses,
research, extension and service activities are carried on throughout the
year by the various departments of the College. It is the constant
endeavour of the College to be of help to the farmers in the solution of
their problems. Some projects of interest are briefly summarized here.
The Utility Value of a Pig Brooder
A pig brooder capable of accommodating six sows and their litters,
similar to one used with success in the Canadian West, is being tried for
Ontario conditions. It is designed to be used in the production of winter-
born litters.
Ribofiavin
After prolonged investigation, a new method for measuring the ribo-
flavin (vitamin B_. or G) content of feedstuffs has been developed. The
measurement of the variation in riboflavin content of many Canadian
feeds will be undertaken as rapidly as possible.
Simplified Diets
In the endeavour to establish a simplified diet for chicks, it has been
definitely shown that there is a decided difference in the nutritive require-
ments of males and females. There is apparently also a considerable
difference in the requirements of different breeds.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE
Spraying Versus Dusting Potatoes
Eight years' experiments indicate that spraying and dusting are about
equally effective in controlling fungous and insect pests and increasing
yields, if thoroughly done with a high-power duster or sprayer.
Serological Ayialyses
During the past testing season, 230,256 samples of poultry blood were
tested by the agglutination test for pullorum disease. This represents an
increase of nearly 20,000 over the previous year.
Preserving Cream with Salt
Salt definitely inhibits oxidase positive bacteria responsible for offen-
sive flavours. Cream preserved by the addition of 7 per cent salt and
made into butter scored as high as butter made from normal cream, and
in some instances higher.
The European Earwig
This imported insect made its first appearance in Ontario in 1938.
Control measures tested in the village of A>i;on, in Grey County, gave very
gratifying results, demonstrating that this insect can be successfully
combatted.
Turnip Aphid Controlled by Nicotine Dust
The turnip aphid, often called the mealy bug, and a real menace to
turnip crops in several counties, was successfully controlled by means of
either nicotine dust or soap solution.
Flour Testing
In the flour testing laboratory of Trent Institute, chemical analyses,
milling tests and baking tests are made on wheat, flour and other baking
ingredients.
Breeding Complete Rust Resistance into Oats
From crosses between the leaf rust resistant Erban oats and the stem
rust resistant Vanguard an attempt is being made to secure types of oats
possessing resistance to both types of rust and to smut.
Breeding Better Grasses and Clovers
Strains have been bred from material gathered in old pastures in
Great Britain, Scandinavia and Russia, as well as in Canada and the
United States of America. These strains of grasses and clovers are higher
yielding, more leafy, disease resistant, winter hardy, and perennial than
the common stemmy types now being grown.
Co-operative Testing of Cereal Varieties
The fact that there is no such thing as a best variety or strain for the
whole Province of Ontario has received further support through co-opera-
tive tests. The real problem appears to be to find a variety or strain best
suited to local conditions.
10 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Poultry Disease Control Measures
The past season presented a major disease problem during the
hatching and brooding period. Infectious bronchitis and infectious
trachaeitis were extremely prevalent, and in some cases mortality was
very high. Very effective preventive and control measures were developed
which proved valuable in checking the outbreaks of infection and should
help to prevent future outbreaks.
Easy to Make Farm Cheese
A hard cheese of the Gouda type, resembling the cheddar variety,
is very suitable for manufacture on the farm. It requires a relatively
short time to make and is ready for use in a few weeks. The methods
are simple, and utensils found on the farm can be used.
An Efficient Wax Moth Fumigant
An inexpensive new fumigant, Methyl Bromide, has been discovered
for the control of the wax moth. It satisfies all requirements, destroying
both eggs and larvae.
Preventing Crystallization in Winter Feed of Bees
The addition of a small percentage of honey to sugar syrup, or vice
versa, prevents crystallization for a period of at least four months.
Mineral Feeding of Cattle on Pastures
The rather low phosphorus content of certain soil types produces
plants low in phosphorous, causing mineral deficiency in the cattle grazing
on these pastures. Studies are being conducted on several important
grazing areas to determine if the feeding of bone meal will prove beneficial.
Detecting Tampering with Milk
On request of the Milk Control Board of Ontario, the use of the
Lactometer and the Babcock Fat Test for detecting tampering with com-
posite samples of milk was studied. It was shown quite plainly that no
reliance can be placed on the methods, as only the very grossest interfer-
ence with the sample can be detected with certainty. Chemical analysis
of the sample is necessary to establish the certainty of tampering, and the
lactometer cannot even be used as a "sorting test."
COLLEGE FUNCTIONS
Baccalaureate Service
The annual Baccalaureate Service for the graduating classes of the

Davey (winner for 1939). The students of the Ontario Agricultural
College made a presentation to Dr. 0. J. Stevenson, retiring Head of the
Department of English.
Alumni Reunion
The Annual Reunion for graduates of the Ontario Agricultural Col-
lege and Macdonald Institute was held June 23, 24 and 25, when more than
1,500 people participated in the celebration of the sixty-fifth anniversary
of the founding of the College.
Events honouring two former members of the Ontario Agricultural
College faculty provided the highlights of the gathering. At a dinner in
Creelman Hall, Professor H. H. Dean, for many years Head of the Depart-
ment of Dairying, was tendered an illuminated address on the occasion
of the fiftieth anniversary of the O.A.C. Review. Professor Dean was the
first editor of the College publication.
In tribute to the memory of the late Professor W. J. Squirrell, former
Head of the Department of Field Husbandry, graduates of Year '33 pre-
sented to the College a memorial plaque to be placed in the Field Hus-
bandry Building.
The speaker at the luncheon was Dean H. Harold Hume of the College
of Agriculture, University of Florida.
Canadian Author Lecture
On Monday evening, February 19, 1940, the Canadian Author Lecture
was given by Mr. Frank D. McDowell, author of "The Champlain Road."
Another important feature of the evening was the University of Toronto
Symphony Orchestra.

There were approximately 125 in attendance and the programme comprised
the following topics :
Chemical Tests for Urinalysis.
Encephalomyelitis of Horses.
Plans for the Control of Bang's Disease.
Treatment and Control of Parasitic Diseases.
Modern Methods Employed in the Sanitary Control of Dairy Products.
Enteritis of Cats.
Kennel Management and the Control of Distemper.

The Relationship of Faulty Nutrition to Disease.
During the months of December and January a series of lectures and
demonstrations were given to students attending the Farmers' Short
Course and Dairy Course at the Ontario Agricultural College. The course
embraced the following topics :
Prevention and Control of Animal Insect Pests.
Mineral Deficiencies Affecting Far^n Animals.
Preventable Diseases of Horses and Cattle.
Preventable Diseases of Sheep and Swine.
Care and Management of Breeding Animals.
Care and Management of the Young at Birth.
Cleaning and Disinfection of Stables.
Examination of Horses for Soundness.
RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATION
During the year, considerable time was devoted to research and inves-
tigational work. Some of the diseases receiving attention are briefly
summarized herewith and detailed reports relating thereto are appended
separately.
Malignant Equine Influenza: Two outbreaks of influenza affecting
horses were found to be of unusual interest on account of their malignant
character. A report of these is appended.
Isolation of the Virus of Equine Encephalomyelitis by Blood Culture:
A report is submitted describing a method for the isolation of the Eastern
strain of encephalomyelitis virus. The chief advantages of the method
are that the virus may be isolated during the course of the disease, hence
the isolation and diagnosis may be made much earlier than when post-
mortem methods are employed.
Fatalities Among Piglets Due to Overdoses of Iron: Quite frequently
losses have been reported among suckling pigs following the administration
of reduced iron as a preventive against anemia. In all of the cases investi-
gated, the amount of iron had been far in excess of the prescribed dose.
Experiments made indicate that even a fairly large dose of reduced iron
does not have a fatal effect upon perfectly healthy pigs. However, pigs
with poor resistance or which have a sub-clinical infection may succumb
rapidly to an overdose.
REPORT OF MINISTP:R OF AGRICULTURE 15
PrevaUing Disea^ses of Sioinc: During the year, more especially
throughout the fall and winter months, diseases of swine were particularly
stressed. The diseases which most frequently came under observation
were hog cholera, swine erysipelas, necrotic enteritis, and swine plague.
A report is submitted dealing with some of the important aspects of swine
diseases.
Experimental Hemorrhagic Septicemia in Swine: A large number of
experiments have been undertaken to produce typical hemorrhagic septi-
cemia infection in swine. These experiments indicate that it is extremely
difficult to reproduce in healthy swine a disease comparable to the natural
infection with hemorrhagic septicemia. The results are described in an
appended report.
Fatal Anaphylaxis FoUoicing the Use of Anti-Hemorrhagic Septicemia
Bacterin: Two occurrences of severe fatal anaphylaxis are described in-
volving the loss of several animals. Attention is drawn to the seriousness
of such unfortunate consequences during immunization and the necessity
for guarding against anaphylactic shock is emphasized.
Stiff Lamb Disease and Aphosphorosis : An outbreak of disease among
lambs is reported which responded to the administration of large doses
of phosphoric acid. The resemblance between stiff lamb disease and acute
phosphorus deficiency is noted.
CLINICAL AND EXTENSION SERVICE
This service has been developed to meet the needs of veterinarians
and owners requiring assistance. The nature and extent of the services
rendered are briefly summarized as follows :
Animal Clinics: Clinics are held each week throughout the College
session to which animals of all classes may be brought for observation. All
animals are carefully examined and medical treatment is prescribed and
surgical operations performed as may appear desirable. The greater part
of the clinical service is furnished during the session when the students
are in attendance. Several case reports are appended to illustrate the
scope of this useful work.
Horses: The majority of these were surgical cases, of which 175
were successfully treated. Approximately 100 visits were made to extend
treatment to horses at the Ontario Agricultural College. In addition, 62
horses were vaccinated against virus encephalomyelitis.
Cattle : Many of the cattle cases represented herd conditions. Among
the diseases predominating being Bang's disease, sterility, mastitis, calf
scours, calf pneumonia, Johne's disease, actinomycosis and hemorrhagic
septicemia.
16 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
In co-operation with the various live stock breeders' associations,
definite plans have been arranged for the control of Bang's disease on an
experimental basis, as follows:
1. By testing individual herds and segregating or removing the
reactors.
2. By testing herds in prescribed areas and removing all reactors.
3. By the adoption of calfhood vaccination in badly affected herds.
A total of 25,519 cattle were tested under these plans and the results
are contained in a separate report.
Swine: There has been a marked increase in the number of swine
cases. These comprised surgical cases and many diseases affecting litters
and herds. Among the diseases predominating were anemia of young
nigs, gastro-enteritis, pneumonia, parasitism, nutritional deficiencies,
hemorrhagic septicemia, swine erysipelas, necrotic enteritis and hog
cholera.
Sheep: The majority of these cases represented flock maladies and
comprised parasitism, hemorrhagic septicemia, goitre, nutritional im-
balances, pregnancy and lambing troubles.
Small Animals: Over 200 dogs and cats were submitted to the clinic
for examination and treatment. While the majority were surgical cases,
there were also a large number of disease conditions treated, including
mange, eczema, distemper, chorea, gastritis, and dietary conditions.
Fur-bearing Animals: The diseases and general welfare problems of
fur-bearing animals on ranches were given all possible consideration. Con-
siderable investigational work was undertaken relating to losses occurring
on mink ranches in York and Perth Counties. The disease proved to be
distemper. The experimental use of hyperimmune serum and tissue vac-
cine as agents in the control of distemper was tried in both mink and
ferrets but they appeared to be of doubtful value. Diagnostic work was
also undertaken in the examination of specimens sent in for laboratory
examination. The material submitted included food substances and fecal
matter from fur-bearing animals. The laboratory work also included
autopsies on 142 animals as shown in the following outline :

Preparation of Antigen: Ninety-six thousand six hundred test doses
of S. pullorum antigen, and positive and negative control sera, were pre-
pared and supplied to registered veterinarians for the agglutination test of
S. jyullorum infection. Seventeen thousand test doses of Br. abortus anti-
gen were distributed to veterinarians for the agglutination test for
Infectious Abortion of cattle (Bang's disease).
Agglutination Tests: During the year, 25,519 blood samples were
submitted to the agglutination test for Bang's disease. Included in this
number are 3,153 from cattle intended for export or exhibition purposes,
and 3,933 from cattle in herds under Ontario Veterinary College super-
vision.

POULTRY LABORATORY SERVICE
This consists chiefly in the routine examination of diseased poultry
sent or brought to the Laboratory. No serious outbreaks of disease were
encountered, but the incidence of coccidiosis, pullorum disease of chicks and
nutritional ailments remains at about the same level. In a great many
instances these conditions could have been prevented if proper control
measures had been employed.
Advice is always given as to the handling of the flock to prevent the
spread of infectious diseases.

HOME ECONOMICS DIVISION
Eight students were in the Senior Year in Home Economics and 13
girls in the Junior and Homemaker Classes. During the year several
graduates found interesting employment. There is an increasing demand
for girls with training to fill positions in the tourist business.
The Clothing Laboratory has been brought up-to-date with efficient
cutting tables and modern type lighting fixtures. A plan for renovating
the Foods Laboratory has been commenced with the installation of two
unit kitchens.
The curriculum of the Department has been adjusted to meet the
war-time circumstances, with stress placed on healthful living and eflScient
expenditure of money. The students have been taught knitting and war-
time sewing, and have made a contribution to war work.
The Clothing Laboratory has been available to local women for Red
Cross sewing.
The Staff conducted lectures in the Home Economics field, supervised
the students' residence and in addition have taken part in rural women's
activities. The meetings attended were District and Area Conventions of
the Women's Institutes and local Institute Branches and Clubs. Meetings
attended during the year were 47, with a total attendance of 2.400.
DIVISION OF ANIMAL AND FIELD HUSBANDRY
Pure Bred Livestock
The purchase of the young Ayrshire herd sire, Pine View Ferdinand
(221307), was the outstanding addition made to the livestock during the
year. The Ayrshire herd was further strengthened by securing two
"typey" young cows.
The Holstein Herd continues to show steady improvement in type and
production. During the year 8 mature cows were entered for Selective
Registration and graded 4 Gold Medal and 4 Excellent.
All milking females of Holstein, Ayrshire and Jersey breeding are
entered in R.O.P. and during the year 16 cows and heifers qualified.
The Pure Bred Yorkshire Herd made a very satisfactory showing
during the year. The demand for Pure Bred breeding stock was particu-
larly keen and during the year 47 sows and 32 boars were sold.
Commercial Livestock
During October nineteen head of grade beef heifers were purchased,
with a three-fold purpose in mind :
1. To provide satisfactory breeding and market classes for judging
purposes with the regular students ; a limited number to be used for
slaughtering.
2. To demonstrate proper methods of handling and showing, as well as
caring for and feeding beef cattle.
3. To provide a means of marketing surplus hay and ensilage grown on
the School farm.
The lot consisted of 6 Aberdeen Angus, 6 Hereford and 7 Shorthorns, and
during the winter months they were periodically weighed and a check
made on their gains.

Lecture Course
During the year this Division gave a course of lectures to the regular
students, Short Courses and Summer School, in Animal and Field Hus-
bandry, and attended 17 Field Days, 53 meetings and judged at 15 Fairs.
DIVISION OF CHEMISTRY, SOILS AND FERTILIZERS
In 1939 a beginning was made at Merrickville in conducting a Perma-
nent Fertility Experiment which will be continued throughout an entire
crop rotation. Two additional locations at Bainsville and Jellyby were
selected to commence in 1940.
In co-operation with the Cereal Division of the Central Experimental
Farm, 12 testing plots were laid out in Eastern Ontario from Hastings
County east. At 7 of these locations fertility tests were conducted, using
3 fertility treatments on 2 varieties of oats and 3 varieties of barley.
Demonstrational plots were laid out and supervised with results taken
and the residual effect of fertilizers recorded from selected farms through-
out Eastern Ontario. This work was carried out on Cereals, Corn, Potatoes,
Turnips and Pa.sture.
Soil Testing Service was given to all who forwarded samples — with
over 800 samples tested, and recommendations made on results obtained.
This service is increasing. Several farmers are returning for an annual
test.
During the year 8 Short Courses were addressed, with an attendance
of 247, and 13 Field and other meetings with an attendance of 1,480.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 23
DIVISION OF AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING AND DRAINAGE
This Division acted as Drainage supervisor in Eastern Ontario, work-
ing under the direction of the Drainage Department, Ontario Agricultural
College, Guelph, Ont. During the year 68 visits were made, of which 34
were advisory, 2 inspections totalling 30,245 ft. of drains and 32 prelimi-
nary surveys for which 70,837 ft. of profile were made. In addition, 150
acres were systematically surveyed, thereby laying out 91,102 ft. of drains.
A successful Drainage Demonstration was held during the Provincial
Plowing Match at Brockville and in Glengary County. The Tile Drainage
Act is being used to a greater extent by farmers in Eastern Ontario.
During the year equipment was added to this Division, which included
miscellaneous tools to make more complete the equipment for woodworking
and mechanics. The Massey-Harris Co. replaced their No. 101 Senior
Twin Power Tractor with No. 101 Junior Twin Power Tractor. The Ford
Motor Co. placed with this division their Ford-Ferguson tractor with plow
attached for class purposes.
Explosives Demonstration, October^ 1939
Through the co-operation of the Canadian Industries Limited,
instruction and practice was given to the Senior Class in the handling of
explosives and their use in blowing out stumps and breaking stones.
Tractor Demonstrations
Expert mechanics from the Massey-Harris Company and the Ford
Tractor Company demonstrated their tractors to the Senior Students.
During the year 12 meetings were attended.
POULTRY DIVISION
The usual lectures were carried on with the regular students in Agri-
culture, the Short Course and the Teachers' Summer School. During the
vear considerable extension work was carried on: Farmers' Meetings
attended, 15; Short Courses, 9; Boys' and Girls' Poultry Club visits, 14;
School Fairs judged, 7; Fall Fairs judged, 2; Farm visits re disease, etc.,
102. Total attendance at meetings, 2,475 people.
Some further work is being carried on toward improving the Poultry
Plant.
The new Course of Lectures and practical work in Farm Meats proved
very interesting to the students, and this work is handicapped by lack of
facilities and equipment.
DIVISION OF HORTICULTURE
During the course of the School year, lectures and related laboratory
work were given to the students in Agriculture, in Horticulture, Botany,
Plant Pathology, Entomology and Genetics, and selected work to students
in Household Science and Short Courses.
During the early spring and again during the late summer months,
visits were made to the farm homes of students in Agriculture then regis-
tered at the School. The first visit was made to discuss with student and
parents the possibility of improving and in some cases re-arranging the
farm home surroundings. The second visit was made with the object of
24 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
noting the progress that had been made, and possible difficulties that may
have arisen. These visits seemed to meet with marked appreciation,
interest and co-operation.
The "hardy" or "double-worked" orchard, started three years ago,
was added to with further new stock given by the Division of Horticulture
of the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. The trees first planted are
now being "worked over" to some of the varieties particularly recom-
mended for Eastern Ontario conditions.
A considerable number of herbaceous perennials were distributed to
rural schools.
Illustrated lectures were given to a number of organizations. Horti-
cultural Societies and Clubs on a variety of subjects, as well as several
practical demonstrations.
Further assistance was given to a number of orchardists and vege-
table growers in dealing with sprays or other suitable means of control
for certain outbreaks of diseases or injurious insects.
A word of thanks for donations of material, in the form of trees,
shrubs and seed for trial purposes, mentioning particularly the Horti-
cultural Division at Ottawa, who have enabled us to grow a fairly
representative selection of new varieties of apples, strawberries and pears.
DIVISION OF DAIRYING
The 46th Dairy Course had a full attendance of 37. Six late applica-
tions to take the course had to be refused owing to lack of accommodation.
The new Dairy Building, which will be completed for the next term, will
provide room for all applicants. Thirteen Counties were represented :
Addington 1, Carleton 3, Dundas 1, Frontenac 3, Glengarry 7, Grenville 2,
Hastings 5, Lanark 5, Leeds 2, Lennox 2, Prescott 1, Russell 2, Stormont 3.
During the Course seven special dairy lectures were given by members
of the Federal and Provincial Dairy Branches with instruction on butter
and cheese grading by the Federal Grading Staff. About 40 visitors
attended these lectures.
Two changes were made on the Dairy Staff, D. Connell, Instructor in
Cheesemaking, and G. Pollard, Instructor in Milk and Cream Testing,
succeeding J. F. Robinson and H. B. Sandwith respectively, who received
promotions to other positions.
The Montreal Provision Trades Association, Branch of the Montreal
Board of Trade, again donated $100 to be distributed in prizes as an
encouragement to the students and recognition of the valuable work
carried on by the School.
Cheesemakers Short Courses were attended at Selby (near Napanee)
and Casselman during the month of April.
During the summer the general plans for the new Dairy Building
were completed.
Work as required by the Dairy Branch was carried out during the
spring, summer and autumn. This included visits to 52 cheese factories,
addresses at 17 Buttermakers' and Cheesemakers' Clubs and other
meetings.

HORTICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION

RESEARCH PROJECTS
A Study of the Extent to which Apple Orchard Cultivation may
Economically be Reduced: In the Report of the Minister of Agriculture
for the year ending- March 31, 1939, a chart is given to show the yields
of five apple varieties in an experiment comparing cultivation until May
15 with cultivation until July 15, followed in each case by seeding to a
green manure crop. In the fall of 1939 it was necessary to remove the
remainder of the two filler varieties, Duchess and Wealthy. The following
chart (Fig. 1) shows the size, as measured by area of cross section of
trunk, and yield per tree in pounds, for these two varieties. The numbers
of trees of Duchess and Wealthy represented in the chart are the same —
Regular Cultivation, 12 ; Regular Cultivation plus manure. 3 ; Minimum
Cultivation, 12; Minimum Cultivation plus manure, 3. (A slight difference
will be noted in the 1929-35 yield between the two charts. In the 1938-39
report all trees were included. Here only those remaining until the fall
of 1939 are used.)
Apart from the differences due to cultivation, the natural differences
between the two varieties are of interest. Wealthy is the much larger
tree as gauged by area of trunk cross section but Duchess has produced
more fruit. The extra yield and growth response of Duchess where manure
was applied may be due to this plot being naturally poorer at the beginning.
With Duchess yield responses from manure have been quite striking.
Heavy applications of commercial fertilizer had been given this orchard
without any appreciable results. In the fall of 1935 a heavy application
of manure (20 tons per acre) was given to plots 2, 3, 6 and 7. During
1936 there was little evidence of a growth response. For this reason the
same application was repeated in the fall of 1936. During 1936 the growth
response was quite pronounced in the green manure crops and was
reflected to some extent by the appearance of the trees in the autumn.
Realizing, therefore, that the soil was poor, another application of 20 tons
per acre was given to these plots in the fall of 1937 and 30 tons per acre
to the remainder of the orchard. In the fall of 1938 the whole orchard
was given another 20 tons of manure per acre. Thus the manure plots,
beginning with the fall of 1935, have received 80 tons of manure per acre,
while the other plots, beginning with the fall of 1937, have received 50
tons of manure per acre. Judging from results from earlier applications,
there would probably be little effect up to 1940 from the 50-ton application
to plots 1, 4, 5 and 8. Manure has increased the gro^^i;h of these trees
more than their yields but, as the former result comes first, yield differ-
ences would undoubtedly have followed had it been possible to leave these
trees in the orchard.
In this chart the yields for the regular cultivation plots (July 15) are
shown to be very definitely ahead of those receiving minimum cultivation
except for the Duchess plus manure plot. The differences between treat-
ments at the end of 1938 were not so striking. For Duchess the yields
were almost the same. The change in result is brought about by the
presence of a partial biennial bearing habit, the "on year" differing under
26

No. 21
cultural treatments. For the standard varieties, when records for a suffi-
cient number of years have been accumulated, this difference should iron
itself out pretty well. With these filler trees, however, their removal
renders it impossible to gather further data, making necessary the accept-
ance of the figures as they are. We are, however, pointing out that the
relative differences in yields have fluctuated between years. With this in
mind, one should probably estimate the real differences in yields between
plots as about somewhere between those shown in Fig. 1. When one con-
siders the extra cost of production (approximately two months extra
cultivation) and the reduction of fruit colour and finish this extra yield
would seem to be of doubtful economic gain.
The response from the application of manure would seem to indicate
that manure could well be substituted for cultivation in many orchards of
low fertility. The use of manure has not only increased yields but the
soil improvement itself is appreciable. Cost of manure has deterred many
growers from using it but if a goodly proportion of its cost could be
charged against the cultivation which is regularly done the net cost would
be much less.

REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 27
FRUIT BREEDING
The fruit breeding? programme was dealt with in some detail in the
report of the Station for the year ending March 31, 1938. The present
report deals simply and briefly with the value of certain Station seedlings
for quick freezing purposes.
Quick Freezing Tef<fs. The present importance of fruits which are
satisfactory for preservation by quick freezing methods, together with the
fact that most know^n varieties are not particularly suited to this purpose,
led to a systematic freezing test of all of the seedlings and named varieties
of fruits produced at this Station. This was a co-operative enterprise with
the Department of Horticulture of the Ontario Agricultural College.
Special attention was given to peaches, strawberries and sweet
cherries because there was a special need for good freezing varieties among
these fruits both here and in the United States. The result has been the
discovery of one particularly satisfactory seedling in each of these fruits
and several other varieties which may be classed as reasonably satisfactory
for freezing purposes. The seedling strawberry has been named "Van-
rouge," and the cherry is called "Velvet." The peach will receive a name
this season. All three varieties when frozen have been examined in the
United States in competition with available varieties there and there is
now no question of their importance in the already large and rapidly
expanding industry' of quick frozen fruits.
The breeding program with these fruits was not designed to include
the establishment of good varieties for freezing but the result of this
program to date has been the production of an exceptionally large number
of varieties suitable for freezing. This fact has attracted considerable
attention and deserves further analysis.
VEGETABLE BREEDING
Asparagus : Selected Mary Washington plants, whose progenies have
given the best yields in trial plots, have been divided and re-planted in
order to secure an increased supply of seed of these improved strains for
distribution and further progeny tests.
Early Cabbage: An early uniform strain of Golden Acre was selfed
and seed from one plant is being grow^n for trial in commercial lots.
Early Tomatoes: Selection work is being continued on the early
staking variety Harkness which was developed from an Experiment Sta-
tion cross. Registered seed of this variety is now^ available in commercial
quantities,
Italian To7natoes: In addition to the selected hybrids of Italian
strains, all of which have well flavoured, medium size, quite firm fruits,
several new hybrids were obtained from Jan Ru crossed with large fruited
varieties such as Ponderosa, Oxheart, etc. These hybrids which are now
in the second generation are expected to produce types desirable for can-
ning for the British market.
Sweet Corn: Considerable progress has been made in sweet corn
breeding. Numerous inbred lines have been carried on which eventually
will be used for making new crosses.
28 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Seed of seven of our new early hybrids has been produced so that they
can be given a second test at this Station but none of this will be available
for distribution. If any of these appear to be of real value for commercial
growers, seed will be produced in large enough quantities that a more
extensive test may be made.
Over thirty pounds of seed of the three most promising Vineland
Golden Bantam hybrids has been supplied this year to the Canadian Seed
Growers' Association, who will distribute it for a semi-commercial test.
One farmer near St. Catharines is producing seed of one of these hybrids
(No. 3261) for sale to growers. Also some of the Junior Farmers of
Lincoln County are using this hybrid for the production of sweet corn for
market and it has been given a very favourable reception by the trade.
Elite or Foundation Stock Seed of the following vegetable varieties is
being produced and maintained : Prizetaker onion, Bender's Surprise
melon, Hamilton Market and Windsor peppers. Hescrow cucumber. Golden
Acre cabbage and Harkness, Bonny Best, Rutgers and Marglobe tomatoes.
VEGETABLE VARIETY AND STRAIN TESTS
Asparagus: The selected strains continue to outyield the commercial
seed lots. The difference in favour of larger plants which had been started
in the greenhouse and transplanted to the nursery rows has disappeared
after three years yield records. This indicates that it is the strain or
variety rather than the comparative size of the young plants that should
receive first attention when starting an asparagus bed.
Tomatoes: Many strains and varieties of tomatoes are being tested,
both for the early staked crop and the later or canning crop. The Hark-
ness is the most popular variety for staking and Chalk's Jewel or Bonny
Best for the canning trade. The Rutgers gave much the best yield and
held its foliage much longer than did the Bonny Best strains.
Sweet Corn: The usual testing of varieties and hybrids has been
carried on and this is becoming more and more necessary as new ones are
being offered by the seed houses from year to year.
Now that the value of hybrid corn is being realized by commercial
growers there appears to be some danger that the use of hybrid corn will
be exploited. It will be well for growers to investigate carefully before
paying the higher prices demanded for this type of corn and to remember
that hybrid corn is not necessarily better than ordinary corn just because
it is hybrid. There are poor hybrids as well as good. The former are no
good at any price, while the latter may easily be worth double the price of
the ordinary run of varieties.
Standard and new varieties of various vegetable crops were grown
and observed as to their value for production in Ontario. A few of the
outstanding new varieties are as follows : Imperial 44 lettuce. Masterpiece
celery. Windsor pepper, Plentiful green bean. Straight Eight cucumber.
New Hampshire eggplant, Delicious and Buttercup squash. A good crop
of Pole Lima beans was harvested, Carpenteria being one of the best
varieties for freezing as well as for yield. The King of the Garden variety
gave a good yield but lacked the green color desired.

EXTENSION
Orchard Fertility Studies: Orchard fertility surveys were inaugurated
in 1936 and to date the following areas have been surveyed : 1936, Niagara
Peninsula; 1937, Elgin, Kent and Essex Counties; 1938, Lake Huron Area
(Lambton County) ; 1939, Burlington-Dixie Area.
During 1939 the fruit-growing areas from Burlington to Dixie and
as far north as Milton were surveyed. Data on the type of orchard
management, use of fertilizer and cover crops, and the fertility level of
the soils were obtained. The area surveyed in 1939 showed rather low
nitrate levels as compared with Lambton County area samples the year
previous. Practically all the orchards sampled showed phosphate levels
medium or higher, while approximately 70' r of the orchards showed
medium to high potash levels. Calcium levels were good in all orchards
sampled. In general, sod orchards showed less nitrates than cultivated
orchards but the minerals were about the same.
Seventy-five orchards were sampled in the 1939 survey. Types of
orchard management were divided as follows: Sod, 25.7%; Clean Culti-
vation, 70.3 ""f ; Sod Strip, 4.0 ^r. The types of cover crops used were:
Weeds, 28.6%; Rye, 39.4%; Buckwheat, 31.7%, and Oats, 5.3^^'. Sixty-
five vegetable soils were also included in this survey. These showed con-
sistently higher levels than the fruit soils, the nitrates being particularly
high.
A summary of all the surveys 1936-1939, inclusive, shows that about
two-thirds of the farmers are using commercial fertilizers to supplement
applications of manure or other crop refuse, whereas the remaining third
never use commercial fertilizers. Nearly all the fruit and vegetable men
use barnyard manure in varying amounts and a small percentage are
supplementing this with crop refuse such as old hay and straw.
Soil Analysis: A total of 427 soil samples from district farmers were
analyzed and reports sent out during the past year. For Project 271, "A
Study of the Extent to Which Apple Orchard Cultivation may be Econom-
ically Reduced," 624 moisture samples were taken and 224 Nitrate
Nitrogen determinations were made. For Project No. 361, ''Soil Organic
Matter Studies," 218 Nitrate Nitrogen determinations were made. 1,168
soil samples were tested in connection with the orchard fertility survey
made in the Burlington -Dixie area.
Nursery Inspection for Varietal Mixtiires: Over 1,200,000 salable
nursery fruit trees were examined for varietal mixtures in the summer of
1939. This is by far the largest number examined in any one of the last
15 years. The trees incorrectly named, slightly over 12,000 in number, or
1 ' ( of the total, were either broken down or labelled correctly.
Spray Service: A total of 1,323 growers in the Niagara Peninsula
received the Spray Service circulars, 15 of these being mailed to each
grower during the spraying season.
Meetings: During the year members of the staff gave addresses at
48 meetings, at which there was a total attendance of 3,209 persons.

WESTERN ONTARIO EXPERIMENTAL FARM, RIDGETOWN
The season of 1939 was a peculiar one for crop production in South-
western Ontario. Sufficient rainfall for the crops in some districts produced
good yields, while in other districts it was very dry. The rainfall at
Ridgetown during the year was a little above the average but the months
of May, September and November were much below average insofar as
precipitation was concerned.

LIVE STOCK
Cattle —
During the year we purchased a Shorthorn bull to head the Shorthorn
herd. This herd has done very well. One of the heifers we purchased gave
over four thousand pounds of milk in her first lactation as a two-year-old.
Five other heifers have freshened and some of them are doing very well.
Three heifers and one cow were sold during the year and nine calves were
born. The Shorthorn herd now numbers twenty-three head.
During the winter of 1938-39 eight Hereford steers were taken in
to feed and we were paid 8V-> cents a pound for each pound gain, 2,450
pounds or an average of 306 pounds from the first of December to the
first of May, and we received $208.25 for them.
Swine —
Our Yorkshire herd has developed well during the year. Three sows
were qualified in Advanced Registration and a number of other litters are
now on test. Two young boars were purchased from Advanced Register
breeding during the year and one of them is at present being kept as the
main sire in the herd.
Thirty-eight young boars were sold for breeding purposes in South-
western Ontario during the year, and sixty-seven young sows.

EXTENSION WORK
Extension work continues to take considerable time. Ninety-four
Agricultural meetings were attended. Thirty-one organizations visited the
farm during the year.
SOIL TESTING
Soil testing service continues to be a main activity and brings us into
contact with a lot of farmers' problems.
SWINE AND POULTRY PROBLEMS
During the year eighty-five farmers have visited the farm with
poultry or hogs for post-mortems. Besides these, twenty-two trips were
made to farms for the investigation of disease problems which have been
presented. The majority of these troubles was internal parasites but other
diseases were found in many cases.
INSECTS AND PLANT DISEASES
There continues to be considerable inquiry regarding insects and plant
diseases. Where possible, these problems are handled by the Experimental
Farm staff. At other times, a consultation is made with other workers on
these problems. It is interesting to note that the campaign against com-
mon barberry was proceeded with considerable vigour during the spring
of 1939. Considerable benefit has been noted as the 1939 season was freer
of rust in fall wheat than any season during the past ten years.
LANDSCAPE WORK
The Experimental Farm continues to give advice on laying out private
and public grounds. This necessitates a number of visits being made
throughout the year, and plans for tree and shrubbery planting have been
submitted to the interested parties.
SEED CLEANING PLANT
The Seed Cleaning Plant continues to be of service to the farmers in
the district. While there were not quite as many bushels of grain cleaned
as last year, yet there was a greater variety of seed brought to the plant
for cleaning. It has been interesting to note that several samples of seed
cleaned in our plant won prizes at the Chicago International Show, as well
as other Fairs in Ontario.
CROP EXPERIMENTS
The Experimental Farm at Ridgetown has been co-operating with
the Field Husbandry Department, O.A.C., Guelph, in conducting a Hybrid
Corn test for the past three years. The result of this test has shown that
some hybrids are much superior to the open pollinated varieties which
have been grown in Southwestern Ontario in the past. They also are
drought resistant, show less tendency to lodge and are not so susceptible
to disease.
82 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Hybrid corn is quickly replacing the old type of corn in Southwestern
Ontario. Two years ago a Hybrid Corn Committee was appointed to look
after the hybrid corn work in Ontario. Last year the Experimental Farm
conducted a number of demonstration test plots with the co-operation of
the Agricultural Representatives in the five counties in Southwestern
Ontario. Last fall, from the data secured from demonstration plots and
the other test plots, the Hybrid Corn Committee made and selected varie-
ties to be recommended for Southwestern Ontario. The list was divided
into three groups, Early, Medium and Late,

Summary of Results in Spraying and Dusthig Potatoes
Potatoes were planted in June, and during most of the time Dooleys
were planted, but in 1938 Kahtadin were planted. Spraying and dusting
started in July when plants were about 8" high. Applications were made
from a week to two weeks apart, depending on weather conditions.
Power machinery were used for both spraying and dusting. Spray
(Bordeaux mixture) was used at the rate of 80 to 100 gallons per acre
and Dust (copper-lime) at the rate of 25 to 45 lbs. per acre. Five applica-
tions of each were given. In most cases the first two with a poison and the
last three without a poison. Check plot was sprayed with poison only, to
control insects — usually two sprayings.

34 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
In 1938 only three applications of dusting and spraying were made.
Due to rains and spreading of the potato tops, it was impossible to go
through the plots to make a fourth application without doing a large
amount of damage to the tops with the horses and machinery.
HORTICULTURE
Peaches, cherries and apples yielded heavy crops, both at the Farm
and throughout the district.
Frequent showers, as sweet cherries matured, washed off protective
sprays before they had an opportunity to dry and, consequently, there was
considerable rot.
This year demonstrated that the recommended sprays for sour cherries
will not in exceptional seasons prevent yellow leaf and consequent early
defoliation. Possibly a basic copper solution might be more effective.
Considerable success in protecting cherries from starlings was
obtained by the use of an automatic exploder using calcium carbide.
A spring greenhouse crop of Michigan State tomatoes yielded at the
rate of 2.57 lbs. per square foot of ground space, a decidedly profitable
crop.
POULTRY
Despite the increase in the number of commercial hatcheries, there
has been a steady demand for hatching eggs from the surrounding com-
munity. The sale of cockerels from bred-to-lay Rocks is also well utilized
by local poultry keepers.
Diagnosing of poultry diseases is an important and much used function
of the Poultry Department.
SWINE EXPERIMENTAL WORK
During the past few years tests have been conducted in finishing
bacon hogs on corn feeding. This varied considerably from year to year,
particularly in regard to the grade of hog. With this in mind, an experi-
ment was conducted to ascertain the amount of protein necessary in a
ration when corn was used as an only grain feed. A number of hogs were
selected around one hundred pounds in weight and divided into three
groups. Group No. 1 got sufficient protein supplement to bring the ration
up to 10 /< protein. Group No. 2 received enough protein to bring the
ration up to 11 '< and Group No. 3 received enough to bring it up to 12',( .
The following is a summary of the results :

At a little under one hundred pounds in weight, hogs were put on this
experiment. They were well grown but lacked flesh. When live hogs sold
at a little less than eight cents per pound, the price allowed per hog on the
start was $8.00 apiece and the average selling price on the market was
$11.50. The corn for this experiment cost one cent per pound, protein
supplement two cents per pound.

SWINE EXPERIMENT— CROSS-BREEDING
The winter of 1939 we received a request from the Ontario Berkshire
Club to do some cross-breeding between the Yorkshire and the Berkshire
breeds. This work has been going on for over a year and is still in
progress.
Two Berkshire sows were purchased and were bred to a Yorkshire
boar. We also used a Berkshire boar on a number of our Yorkshire sows.
There has been no noticeable difference in the way the pigs were crossed
insofar as rate of gain, economy of gain and type of carcass were
concerned. There was a distinct advantage, however, in the use of the
Yorkshire sow when the cross was made as somewhat larger litters were
obtained in this w'ay.

This table shows that the Cross-breds w^ere ahead insofar as rate of

percentage and, consequently, did not give as much profit in the end as the
pure-bred Yorkshire.
BABY BEEF EXPERIMENT
During the past few years considerable work has been done in regard
to curing hay on tripods. This gives a better quality hay. This was tested
out in baby beef production. Two lots of baby beeves were fed during the
year.
Lot No. 1 were fed a mixed meal combined with oats, w^heat, barley,
corn and alfalfa hay. Lot No. 2 received ground soy beans, in addition to
the mixed meal and alfalfa hay. Lot. No. 1 required 682 lbs. of meal and
332 lbs. of alfalfa to make 100 lbs. gain. Lot. No. 2 required 605 lbs. of
meal and 60 lbs. of ground soy beans and 280 lbs. of alfalfa hay, conse-
quently there was very little difference in the way these two lots did. If
the hay had been a poor quality, there probably would have been a great
deal more difference or, in other words, baby beef could be fattened suc-
cessfully on mixed home-grown meal and well-cured alfalfa hay.
FARMERS' WEEK
The tw^o-year course in Agriculture w^as discontinued this year due to
lack of a residence for the students. Rather than hold a Short Course for
just the young men of the district, it w^as decided to put on a Farmers'
Week, to deal with the main problems in Southwestern Ontario Agricul-
ture. This was held during one of the coldest weeks of the winter but the
attendance was excellent; in fact, we had around six hundred different
farmers attending.
PIG CLINICS
In order to meet the problem of swine diseases in Southwestern
Ontario, it w^as decided to hold a two-day session on swine diseases. We
advertised for farmers who were having trouble to bring their pigs in and
we had Dr. Schofield and a couple of local veterinarians assist us in this
work. We had an attendance of between two and three hundred farmers
and about fifty pigs were brought in on this occasion.

STATISTICS AND PUBLICATIONS BRANCH
The work of the Statistics and Publications Branch embraces the
preparation of agricultural statistics for the Province and the printing
and distribution of publications dealing with farming subjects.
The compilation of statistics relating to all phases of agriculture was
carried out with excellent co-operation from a large body of farm corre-
spondents, cheese factories, creameries, commercial dairies, canning
factories, and other establishments engaged in the processing and distri-
bution of farm products. The statistical information is made available
to the public, without charge, through the medium of the Monthly Crop
Report, the Monthly Dairy Report, seasonal Fruit and Vegetable Crop
Report, and the Annual Statistics Report.
The numbers specified of the following publications were printed for

During the year three new Societies were authorized — Chelmsford,
St. Charles and tjpsala, all in Northern Ontario. Sturgeon Falls and St.
Joseph Island were reorganized, having been dormant for a number of
years. The Glengarry and East Stormont Society was dissolved to operate
as a Crop Improvement Association. New Liskeard was dissolved and
Priceville was dormant. Three hundred and ten Societies were active.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 37
Agricultural Societies had perhaps the most successful year in their
history, with particular emphasis on service rendered to rural Ontario. In
striking contrast to their operation a few years earlier, when activities
were confined almost entirely to the conduct of Fairs, Societies in 1939
promoted a wide range of projects based on the needs of the respective
communities served. The following will indicate the nature of these
enterprises :
Field Crop Competitions.
Purchase and distribution of registered grain and certified seed potatoes at cost.
Spring Seed Fairs.
Society composite exhibits at large shows.
The operation or sponsoring of seed cleaning plants.
The maintenance of pure-bred sires.
The importation and distribution of breeding females.
.Junior Clubs.
Rural Beavtification Contests.
Reforestation.
Agricultural Meetings covering the following subjects: Weeds and Weed Control,
Soil Fertility Problems and Soil Testing, Preparation of Grain and Seed
with Special Reference to Cleaning, Grading and Treatment for Disease,
Feeds and the Feeding of Cattle and Hogs, Co-operation and Marketing of
Farm Products.
Short Courses.
T. B. Control (Restricted area meeting and sign-up).
Fall Fairs.
Spring Stock Shows.
Christmas Market Fairs.
This broader programme has received further encouragement by the
"objects" of the new (1939) Agricultural Societies Act.
There was a remarkable increase in Field Crop Competitions from
134 the previous year to 193 in 1939. Owing to the organization of Crop
Improvement Associations, which conduct Spring Fairs, grants in 1939
for this purpose were paid to 16 Societies only.
Under leadership of the Farmer's Magazine, 48 Rural Beautification
Contests were held and 20 of these were sponsored by Agricultural Socie-
ties. Many organizations improved Fair Grounds by tidying, painting and
planting trees and shrubs.
Livestock: Grants for maintenance of pure-bred sires were paid to
12 Societies as follows: Stallions 2, Bulls 69, Boars 28, Rams 15; total 114.
Spring Stock Shows were held by 6 Societies.
Fall Fairs: It is doubtful if Societies ever staged more impressive
shows than were held in the fall of 1939. Over 60 per cent indicated an
increase in exhibitors and exhibits. Unfortunately, there wasnot a corre-
sponding increase in gate receipts, as about 65 per cent of Societies
reported a decrease as compared with the previous year. No doubt the
declaration of war, just as fairs were opening, was a contributing factor.
Though considerably above average, the weather was not as favourable as
in 1938. Wet Weather grants were applied for by 52 Societies and only
76 per cent of gate receipt losses w-as covered. In contrast to the average,
a number of Societies enjoyed a remarkable increase in gate receipts and
the following Societies holding "one pay day fairs" are to be congratulated :

Many Societies made special efforts to create more interest in home
communities by providing commercial and other classes to encourage the
rank and file of local farmers.
Holstein or "Black and White" County Shows were held in conjunc-
tion with 15 Fall Fairs. In each case more county breeders exhibited and
local interest was thereby extended. This plan brought out 144 head at
Napanee, 126 at Markham and 115 at Roseneath.
By co-operation of the Ontario Cream Patrons' Association, educa-
tional exhibits of cream were sponsored by 18 Societies. These exhibits
were staged in conjunction with competitive classes for which attractive
prizes were offered. There were two divisions:
(1) For 50 pounds of cream from any one dairy herd of 10 cows or more.
(2) For 30 pounds of cream from a herd of less than 10 cows in milk at
Fair time.
Orillia had 29 entries in this competition. Teeswater and Caledonia
each had 14, while Markdale and Arthur had 11. Several other Societies
modernized their prize lists in this respect and a few had cream grading
competitions for juniors which were found to be quite educational.
Classes for pens of market hogs to be sold and slaughtered offer
splendid opportunities for Societies to give practical encouragement and
at the same time interest families which might otherwise not exhibit at
Fairs. In 1939, Canada Packers Limited gave financial assistance to 12
Societies, and similar support was given by the T. Eaton Company Limited
to 10 Societies. In each case, pens of 5 market hogs were required and
these were sold for slaughter and prizes were awarded on a rail grade
basis. The 5 Societies with highest entries are listed :
South Perth (St. Marys) 180
Moore (Brigden) 105
Caledonia 85
West Elgin (Wallacetown) 82
Teeswater 80
ONTARIO ASSOCIATION OF AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES
The annual Convention of the Provincial Association was the largest
ever held. Plans whereby Societies might make the greatest contribution
to the war effort featured the programme. Association meetings were
held in all districts. An important two-day Convention at Dryden was
attended by delegates from all Societies west of the Great Lakes.
Service Diplomas were awarded by 102 Societies to carefully selected
persons, one in each community, who had rendered unselfish service to
agriculture and rural life.
During the year the Association became a membei' of the Ontario
Chamber of Agriculture.
School for Judges: Young men and women from Central and Western
Ontario, at their own expense, attended Schools at the Ontario Agricul-
tural College for practice and instruction on Fall Fair judging, as follows:
19J9 Classes X umber
April 20, 21 — Dairy Cattle and Swine 45
April 20, 21 — Beef Cattle and Sheep 43

REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 89
Lists of those attending Schools were sent to Societies and most of
them received one or more judging appointments.
ONTARIO PLOWMEN'S ASSOCIATION
Interest in good plowing is still mounting, as evidenced by a marked
increase in entries at the International Match and more activity through-
out the Province. In 1939 Senior Matches were conducted by 83 Branches
of the O.P.A., being 3 more than were conducted in the previous year and
the largest number ever held. Three new Branches were organized:
Chelmsford Sudbury District
Collingwood Township Grey County
Manitoulin Manitoulin Island
Junior activities were increased by the holding of 12 Junior Matches.
11 Home Plowing Competitions and 48 Demonstrations. Departmental
instructions and judges were supplied for all of the Junior events and for
all but 2 of the Senior Matches.
International Plowing Match, Brockville
As national leaders had urged that Agriculture should be geared to
wartime efficiency, it was decided, shortly after war was declared, that
the International should be held and, if possible, promoted with more
enthusiasm and efficiency.
Their Excellencies the late Baron Tweedsmuir and the Lady Tweeds-
muir visited the Match on Thursday. They enjoyed chatting with contest-
ants, and Lord Tweedsmuir, not satisfied with talking about plowing, took
the handles and plowed a furrow, to the delight of spectators.
In spite of inclement weather, the programme each day was completed
and a new record for entries was established. The total of 681 entries in
4 days was 94 higher than last year, and 90 higher than the previous
record established at Fergus in 1937. Local entries on Tuesday totalled
125, being higher than any previous year, excepting at Maryvale Farm in
1934, when competition was open.
The large increase in entries was due chiefly to a substantial extension
of prizes offered. The application of a sliding scale in large classes encour-
aged new competitors, as in classes with over 15 entries there was an
additional $4 prize for each 3 entries. For instance, in Class 2, with 47
entries, 11 prizes were paid in addition to 10 advertised in the prize list.
The total expended in awards was about $2,200 higher than in 1938.
The ''King's Plate" of the Match was the Trans-Atlantic Class, spon-
sored by the Salada Tea Company of Canada Limited. The winners were
awarded medals and trips with all expenses paid to the British Isles:
Gold Medal— Edward Timbers, Milliken.
Silver Medal— R. G. Brown, Gait R.R. 7.
Junior Farmers were very much in evidence at Brockville. The new
Inter-County (Tractor) Class brought out 11 teams of 2 plowmen each.
The James McLean Memorial Trophy was won by the Dundas County
Team with 129 14 points. Coach — H. W. Graham. Team Members — Arnold
Watson, Lunenburg, and Raymond Beehler, Crysler.
40 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
The classic Inter-County (horse) contest provided the largest entry
on record, with 22 teams and 66 young men under 20 years of age, plowing
in one field. The Farmer's Magazine Trophy was won by the Haldimand
County Team with 2191 :> points. Coach — A. Gordon Skinner. Team
Members — Howard Fess, Selkirk ; Rhys Bacher, Cayuga, R.R. 3 ; Harold
Nie, Nanticoke, R.R. 1.
The exhibit of farm machinery and home conveniences was more
impressive than in any previous year. There was a marked improvement
in the effectiveness of displays.
Educational exhibits, always an important feature, were arranged by
the following:
Experimental Farm Systems. Ottawa.
Ontario Veterinary College, Guelph.
Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph.
Agricultural School, Kemptville.
Provincial Department of Health.
Publicity and Extension Branch, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.
Forestry Branch, Ontario Department of Lands and Forests.
Hydro-Electric Power Commission, Ontario.
Crops Branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture.
Ottawa Valley Seed Growers' Association.
Apart from some interference by unfavourable weather, educational
demonstrations were very satisfactory and included the following :
Multiple Hitch.
Farm Drainage.
Cultural — Draft of Implements.
Oxen Plowing.
Plow Setting.
Anatomy and Care of Horses' Legs and Feet.
Seed Cleaning.
Weed Killing.
Electrical Equipment — - Farm and Home Conveniences.
Soil Testing.
Horse Shoeing Competitions attracted large crowds daily. Class win-
ners were as follows: Alex. Cleland, Barrie: L. Miller. Frankville; and
C. Sheppard, Toronto.
Due to an increased [)rizo list with -SO awards totalling $500 and the
energetic promotion of the Horse Committee, the average quality of plow
teams was high and the Horse Show on Friday impressive. Awards were
won by:
1 — Clark Dairy, Ottawa
2 — Stewart McConnell, Osgoode Station.
3 — Charles Short, Lindsay.
Prizes amounting to about $7,000 were provided by:
The United Counties of Leeds and Grenville.
The Town of Brockville.
The Ontario Department of Agriculture.
The Federal Department of Agriculture.
and other municipalities, corporations and jiublic-spirited citizens.
Annual Convention:
Over 300 delegates and others interested in good plowing attended the
successful Convention held in Toronto in February, 1939.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 41
HORTICULTURAL SOCIETIES
The declaration of a state of war immediately raised the question of
whether beautification might be left in abeyance or decreased for the
duration of the war. Experience during the 1914-1918 period may serve
as a guide:
No. of Government Apjyn.
Year Membership Expenditure Societies for Grants
1913 11,422 $32,701 71 $12,000
1914 13,209 33,764 74 12,000
1915 14,465 48,021 79 12,000

1918 17,558 53,822 97 17,000
1919 24,877 68,974 93 17,000
These figures show there was an increase of 70 per cent in the number
of Societies, the total membership was more than doubled, and the expendi-
ture for horticultural purposes was multiplied by 3. This may be taken
as evidence that in trying times people require a hobby which affords
recreation and spiritual rest. We may therefore proceed on the assurance
that Horticultural Society activities are fully warranted and a well-planned
programme should be promoted with more enthusiasm than in times of
peace.
During the year seven new Societies were authorized, as follows :
Matheson; Selkirk; Port Dalhousie; Innerkip; Larder Lake; Omemee
District; and Freelton. Ten were reorganized, including: Osgoode (Ken-
more), Cochrane, Hagersville, Bronte, Norwich, Mitchell, Forest Hill and
Markham. Five were dissolved or recorded as dormant. The total active
Societies show an increase of 10, being 245, but satisfactory reports have
not been received from all of these.
The main features of the 1939 programme are listed, wdth the
response to each, as indicated by reports.
1 — Civic Improvement — promoted in some form by 75 per cent of Societies
2 — Rural Beautification — sponsored by 60 per cent of Societies
3 — Juvenile Programme — sponsored by 60 per cent of Societies
4 — Garden Competitions — sponsored by 50 per cent of Societies
5 — Highway Tree Planting — sponsored by 35 per cent of Societies.
The Royal Visit offered additional opportunities for service. Many
Societies planted trees in commemoration and others were responsible for
impressive civic decorations.
Rural Beautification: Satisfactory progress has been made in the pro-
gramme to beautify rural Ontario under the direction of the Departmental
Committee. In four counties where concentrated campaigns were organ-
ized, remarkable improvement has been achieved. In Carleton during the
year 40 meetings were held and 205 contestants entered competitions for
which a total of $500 was offered in prizes. An average of 100 forest trees
each was distributed by 48 schools. Sixty lawn mowers were distributed
throughout the county.
42 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
In Haldimand, the 10 Point Plan outlined at the last Convention was
carried through successfully. Thirteen schools were landscaped and trees
were distributed to all pupils in the county. Some 114 trees were planted
to commemorate the visit of Their Majesties. Some 765 shrubs were
planted on school properties and the majority of these were in good con-
dition. Approximately 205,000 trees were planted throughout the county.
Similar work, though not quite as extensive, was done in the Counties of
Lambton and Northumberland. Rural beautification, however, was not
confined to a few counties but has been general throughout the Province.
To co-ordinate the efforts of officials concerned and to promote more
general improvement of Rural Schools an inter-department committee was
convened in December 1939, composed of representatives from the Depart-
ments of Education, Forestry and Agriculture. During the winter plans
were developed which resulted in a marked increase of activity in this
important phase of rural beautification.
ONTARIO HORTICULTURAL ASSOCIATION
The Annual Convention of the Provincial body was well attended and
enthusiastic. The general programme of the Association reached prac-
tically all parts of Ontario.
Meetings for officers were held in 11 Association Districts. Summer
meetings or field days for members were held in all districts in Old Ontario
with one exception.
The Association gave financial assistance to 38 Societies for the
expense of speakers. During the year a new record book was designed
and a quantity purchased for resale to Societies at cost as required.
As a service, the Association is now in a position to lend slides to
Societies as three sets have been purchased for that purpose.
Junior Flower Judging Competitions were conducted in five Associ-
ation Districts. Teams representing the following Societies were first
prize winners:
District Place of Competition Society
2 Arnprior Arnprior
4 Woodville Lindsay
6 Hamilton Hamilton
7 Guelph Guelph City
10 Tavistock Woodstock
The first Junior Championship Judging Competition was held at the
1940 Convention, open to a prize winning team from each of the above
Districts. The Black Leaf 40 Trophy was won by the District No. 10 Team
sponsored by the Woodstock Society. Coach — Fred Fairs. District Director,
Woodstock. Team — John Dewan. Allan Harley and Jack Fletcher.
Rural School Improvement Competitions were conducted in seven
Association Districts. The winner in each case was entered in a Champion-
ship Contest. The J. E. Carter Trophy for highest score in the Provincial
Competition was awarded to S.S. 4, Crahame, Northumberland County,
District 4. Teacher— Miss C. Hubble.

Association Awards in 19 89:
Silver Medal and Diploma — Rev. H. A. E. Clarke, Cornwall.
Diploma — Fonthill Society.
J. E. Carter Gold Medal — H. Occomore, Guelph.
Service Diplomas were provided to 60 Societies.
AGRICULTURAL REPRESENTATIVE BRANCH
FOREWORD
The duties of the Agricultural Representative are many and varied.
His programme, like that of the farmers whom he serves, had to be
adjusted to meet changing conditions caused by the outbreak of the second
world war. Although the agricultural products most needed by the
Allies have not yet been clearly defined, except in the case of bacon, the
Agricultural Representatives have adopted a policy embodying three
fundamentally sound principles of agriculture :
1. Increase the yield per acre by the use of clean, plump seed of suit-
able varieties, the practice of adequate tillage methods and the
maintenance of soil fertility.
2. Improvement in quality of live stock and field crops.
3. Maintenance of the regular system of farming with more emphasis
on economic production, rather than the extensive mass production
of any one crop or breed of live stock.
In cases of economic stress or national emergency calling for careful
study of all agricultural problems, the work of the Agricultural Repre-
sentative is multiplied.
During the year A, V. Langton, Agricultural Representative in Glen-
garry and East Stormont, resigned to take up farming, and J. A. Dalrymple
of Smithville, who has been acting as Assistant Agricultural Representative
in Prince Edward County, was appointed to the position of Agricultural
Representative in Glengary and East Stormont.
LIVE STOCK IMPROVEMENT
Horses
The Agricultural Representatives provided transportation for Stallion
Inspectors when they made their annual fall inspection.
Bot Fly Control was encouraged. Special programmes, including
treatment for Encephalomyelitis (sleeping sickness) were organized in
localities where outbreaks of this highly fatal disease were feared. Excel-
lent results were obtained with chick vaccine.
Several field days and horse shows were arranged. The Stratford
Horse Show, operated by the Perth County Horse Breeders' Association,
has the local Agricultural Representative as Secretary-Treasurer.
Cattle
T.B. Restricted Areas: All preliminary organization for circulating
petitions and completing the canvass for the establishment of the county
or district as a T.B. Restricted Area is assumed by the Agricultural Repre-
sentative. (See Live Stock Branch for report on progress of testing.)
44 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Warble Fly Control: In Oxford County warble powder was provided
by the County Council annually from 1934 to 1938 and all cattle were
treated. No powder was provided for 1939 but distribution was made
again in 1940. The total cost in 1934 amounted to 81,984.00. This was
gradually reduced in five years to 8252.44 in 1938, but jumped again after
the lapse of one year to $800.80. This report, as well as results obtained
in special work on Barrie Island, gives definite proof of the value of annual
treatment for warbles.

Bull Loaning Policy
The Agricultural Representatives co-operated with the Dominion
Production Service in organizing Bull Clubs in Northern Districts. The
service of these good bulls has done much toward the improvement of
cattle in districts where farmers have diflJiculty in financing the purchase
of a good bull. Report of bull clubs now in operation :

REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 45
Sheep
Some 16 drenching demonstrations were held, at which 1,056 sheep
were treated for internal parasites. It is estimated that more than 42,000
sheep were treated in 1939, while 2,020 sheep were dipped in demonstra-
tions. It is estimated 120,000 sheep were dipped or otherwise treated for
ticks and other external parasites.
The Representatives also assisted materially in the organization of
Lamb Fairs and the co-operative marketing of wool and lambs.
Swine
Advanced Registry Swine Breeding was organized in Waterloo
County about six years ago and by the organization work of the Agricul-
tural Representatives, Advanced Registry Swine Clubs, Boys' Swine Clubs,
Boar Clubs and by private purchase. Advanced Registry stock has spread
to nearly every county in Ontario.
With indications of a greatly increased swine population, the signing
of the British Bacon Agreement and the hope of encouraging the produc-
tion of winter litters and to reduce the mortality in winter farrowed pigs,
the Agricultural Representatives organized and held 171 special swine
meetings, with a total attendance of 7,605.
Quarterly Pig Survey
The Agricultural Representatives co-operate very closely with the
Dominion Marketing Service in estimating the pig marketings over three
months' periods. A special attempt was made to encourage more boar
owners to fill out quarterly reports and thus increase the efficiency of
the survey.
South Simcoe made a complete boar census, resulting in a greatly
increased number of boar owners co-operating in the survey.
Rail Grading
In order that farmers might get a clearer picture of the set-up neces-
sary for grading hogs on the rail and to see first hand the actual grading
process, groups of farmers were invited by one of the large packing plants
in Toronto to spend a day at the plant. Groups visited the plant as follows :

POULTRY
Poultry Culling
Some 103 Poultry Culling Demonstrations were held in 21 counties,
with 12,000 birds culled in demonstration. It is estimated 371,000 birds
were culled in Ontario in 1939. There are 601 Ontario Breeding Station
flocks in Ontario.
Through culling and worming demonstrations, post-mortem exami-
nation of diseased birds, along with recommendations for proper feeding,
sanitation, care and management and the selection of good breeding stock,
mortality in poultry is being gradually reduced and vigor and production
increased.
Agricultural Representatives are closely connected with the Poultry
Industry from the Breeding Station flock, producing high class hatching
eggs, to the marketing of poultry and eggs.

FIELD CROP AND SOIL WORK
In January, February and March, 1940, as a war measure, a special
Field Crop Programme was inaugurated, with the object of encouraging
farmers to use quality seed, of which there was an abundance, to practise
adequate tillage and to maintain the fertility of the soils at a satisfactory
level. With a labour shortage which has indications of becoming more
acute, it was felt that material increase in crop production could be brought
about in this manner, without bringing into production much additional
land of doubtful producing ability.
Crop meetings were held in every county ; some counties prepared and
forwarded special crop letters to every farmer.
A comprehensive seed survey was made and lists of available seed
supplies of good quality were compiled in a 76-page mimeographed book,
which was given wide distribution.
As a result of the survey and the Field Crop Programme, more high
quality seed of suitable varieties was used than ever before.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE
HAY AND PASTURE PROGRAMME
Hay and pasture crops in Ontario constitute 52'/< of the total crop
acreage. These crops are often referred to as the lowest cost feed crops
and the most neglected crops in Ontario Agriculture.
On January 24, 1940, the Ontario Hay and Pasture Committee was
organized, representing the Ontario Department of Agriculture, the
Ontario Agricultural College, the Kemptville Agricultural School, the
Ridgetown Experimental Farm and the Dominion Production Service. A
long-time programme of Hay and Pasture Improvement was planned.
Immediate recommendation was made for the printing and distribu-
tion of 30,000 copies each of Bulletin No. 406 and Extension Circular
No. 28, 10,000 copies of a circular on Tripod Curing of Early Cut Hay
and 20,000 copies of a circular on Pasture for Poultry. Some 5,000 posters
were prepared and distributed. A summary of work accomplished to
date on hay and pasture improvement was assembled and copies submitted
to Agricultural Representatives for reference purposes.
The reorganization of all crop improvement work under the County
Crop Improvement Associations, commenced in 1938, was continued in
1939.

Soil Improvement
Farmers are turning more and more to the soil test as the basis for
soil management. Twenty-one Representatives' offices are equipped with
soil test kits. The Counties of Peel and York have granted financial assist-
ance to this work so that tests can be made of soils on practically all the
farms.
LEAF AND STEM RUST OF GRAIN
Oxford County reports that an Oat Variety test plot was damaged by
stem rust and a barberry bush was discovered growing within 125 feet
of the plot. Incidentally, Vanguard and 22-00-6 came through almost
100% clean. Within iVo miles of this plot a serious leaf rust infestation
was traced to an old buckthorn hedge. In this case Erban oats stood up
and were easily cut, while Alaska and Gopher varieties close by were flat
on the ground and of little value.
These experiences have resulted in a vigorous campaign to clean out
all existing buckthorn and common barberry shrubs. Several demonstra-
tion meetings have been held. The corn borer inspector has been empowered
to have these shrubs destroyed and all teachers in rural schools will teach
at least one lesson on leaf and stem rust control.
48 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Fanning Mill Screen Service
In counties where it is difficult to purchase adequate screening ma-
terial, the Agricultural Representatives provide this service at cost. In
South Simcoe 65 fanning mills were equipped with new screens at a series
of 6 crop meetings. In York County more than 30 screen sizes and types
are carried and hundreds of requests are received annually for this
material.
Orchard Spray Service
Some 4,941 fruit growers in 27 counties received the series of spray
service letters. All of these growers received at least 8 letters and some
received as many as 15 during the spraying season,
CONSERVATION AND REFORESTATION
The Agricultural Representatives co-operate very closely with county
and district reforestation committees. In fact, three of the five Zone Secre-
taries are Agricultural Representatives.
The reforestation and conservation programme in Ontario continues
to make substantial progress. A new County Forest was established in
the Counties of Leeds and Grenville, with the purchase of 1,100 acres of
land.
Zone meetings and field days were held in all five zones. The number
of forest trees distributed has increased from 16 million in 1938 to 17
million in 1939.
Many counties are expanding their county forests, introducing school,
junior farmer and Boy Scout plantations. Towns and villages are practis-
ing conservation by planting areas around their sources of water supply.
HOME BEAUTIFICATION
More attention is being devoted to the appearance of the farm home
and much has been done in the way of planting, leveling, repairing, paint-
ing and cleaning up.
Some 47 Home Beautification Contests were conducted with a total
membership of 993.
In Bruce Count}' the Bruce Beautification Bureau was organized with
a membership of well over 1,000. The programme includes 18 school
planting demonstrations, a large number of meetings, a combined refores-
tation and beautification field day and tour, a clean-up week. etc. Members
receive a reduction of 35 S on certain nursery stock and 20 '< on certain
paints.
In Northumberland County 10 woodlot meetings were held, largely
with school children, with an attendance of 1.143. S. S. No. 4 Cramahe.
in Northumberland, won the Carter Trophy for the school showing the
greatest improvement in school ground appearance in Ontario.
In Haldimand County the Home Improvement Association was formed
in February, 1939. Achievements are : Membership, 808 ; affiliated
organizations, 35 ; clean-up campaigns, 6 ; trees planted to commemorate
the Royal Visit, 114 ; press articles, 10 ; schools undertaking school planting,
11; meetings, 35; attendance, 3,079; other achievements included exten-
sive tree planting, home grounds improvement, house painting, cemetery
improvement, etc.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 49
In Carleton County the Rural Home Beautification Association has a
membership of 1,100. 23 meetings were held, with an attendance of 1,892.
248 farm homes were given landscape service. There were 5 Home
Beautification Contests, with a membership of 205. The financial state-
ment shows receipts to the extent of $549.75, all of which was expended
on the work.
FARM TOURS
Farm tours are becoming more and more popular. Invariably these
trips are planned, organized and managed by the Agricultural Represen-
tative.
PLOWING MATCHES
Some 72 County Plowing Matches were held in 1939, with competitors
totalling 2,628 and a total prize list amounting to $19,627.10.
SEPTIC TANKS
Some 127 septic tanks were built with the use of the forms located at
the offices of the Agricultural Representatives. There is now a total of
1.133 septic tanks in Ontario built in this manner.
FARM LABOUR
The Agricultural Representatives received 1,690 applications for farm
help and the following were placed :
Single Men 1,060
Married Men 66
Boys : 46
1,172
Some of these placements were made with the co-operation of
Employment Bureaus.
JUNIOR EXTENSION
Rural School Fairs
106,919 pupils made 203,667 entries in 509 School Fairs held in 1939.
The total attendance amounted to 128,140 children and 133,791 adults.
294,260 packages of grain, vegetable and flower seeds were distributed to
school pupils in the spring.
Rural School Fairs are a joint project carried on by the Departments
of Agriculture and Education. While the general supervision and manage-
ment is vested in the Agricultural Representatives, the Public and Separate
School Inspectors share equal responsibility in drafting prize lists, judging
exhibits and competitions dealing primarily with school work, the day of
the fair. The Agricultural Representative, in addition to sharing the
responsibility of organization and management, assumes the full responsi-
bility for the packaging and distribution of seeds, prize lists and entry
tags, securing of judges, transportation of tables, poultry coops and other
equipment and all clerical work in connection with each fair.

Short Courses in Agriculture
Courses in Agriculture of from one week to two months duration
were conducted for young- men who cannot be spared from duties at home
to attend a longer course at an agricultural school or college. The courses
are organized on the request of the local people who supply the accommo-
dation. The Department of Agriculture supplies the instructors and
equipment. The Agricultural Representative is in charge of the course
in each case.
Due to the outbreak of war and the necessity for conservation of
public funds, the usual practice of holding a number of three-month
schools was suspended this year.

A large number of special courses of from one to four days duration
were held, comprising a wide variety of agricultural subjects. The study
of specific subjects through the medium of study groups is proving popular
in a number of counties and districts.
JUNIOR FARMER ASSOCIATIONS
Junior Farmer Associations are a natural outgrowth of short courses
and are organized to maintain short course associations and to provide an
opportunity for further study and community work. Junior Farmer Asso-
ciations render distinguished service to the Agricultural Representative in
the organization and conducting of many junior activities in the respective
counties. There are in Ontario 130 Junior Farmer Branch Associations
and 17 County Associations. One hundred and nineteen of these Associ-
ations report a membership of 3,220.
"Junior Farmer News," a mimeographed monthly publication edited
by the Agricultural Representative Branch, is forwarded to the association
secretaries and is designed to provide information and ideas for regular
meetings and to serve in bringing about a clearer and more personal
relationship between the various associations throughout the Province.
JUNIOR FARMER PLOWING COMPETITIONS
Thirteen Home Plowing Competitions and 8 Junior Plowing Matches
were held, with 304 Junior Farmers competing. Junior Plowing Competi-
tions usually preceded by plowing demonstrations, given by an expert
plowman, provide an excellent elimination contest for the selection of
teams to represent the county at the International Plowing Match.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 51
Judging Competitions
Realizing the practical educational value of being proficient in judging
live stock and seeds, young men and boys entered the various county and
district events in greatly increased numbers. Forty-four County Live
Stock and eight Seed Judging Competitions v^ere conducted by Agricul-
tural Representatives, with a total of 2,313 Junior Farmers taking part.
These figures do not include judging competitions at fairs, seed fairs and
field days.

At the 13 Class B Fairs special Junior Farmer programmes were
arranged in stock and seed judging, rope and halter work, team demon-
strations and inter-club calf and colt competitions.
In lieu of the Winter Fairs, which were suspended, the Ontario Pro-
vincial Winter Fair Association staged an excellent Seed Fair in the King
Edward Hotel, a prominent feature of which was the junior section. Each
Grain and Potato Club in Ontario was eligible to make three entries.

MASSEY FUND SCHOLARSHIP
A number of counties, in conjunction with the Massey Fund, provide
scholarships to send worthy boys to the Ontario Agricultural College at
Guelph. The Agricultural Representative is invariably one of the selecting
committee and the award is made on the applicant's ability as evidenced
by Junior Farmer, agricultural and community work. If the qualifications
of two or more applicants are very nearly equal, then a written exami-
nation is given.
Counties participating in 1939 were Bruce, Carleton, Dundas, Glen-
garry, Haldimand, Kent, Norfolk, Perth, North Simcoe, South Simcoe,
Stormont and York.
The County of Leeds, through three public-spirited citizens, provides
scholarships of $100 each to four students from the county attending the
Kemptvilie Agricultural School.
52 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
4-H CLUB CONGRESS, CHICAGO
Five young women and seven young men. selected for some outstand-
ing accomplishment in their respective counties, attended as a group the
National 4-H Club Congress held in conjunction with the International
Live Stock Show at Chicago. C. D. Graham, Agricultural Representative
for Peel County, had charge of the party and Miss Lulu Row, of the
Institutes Branch, acted as chaperone for the girls.
CLUB CAMPS
The report on junior work would not be complete if mention was not
made of the club camps organized by the Lakehead Exhibition and the
Central Canada Exhibition.
In co-operation with the Port Arthur -Fort William Kiwanis Club,
the Lakehead Exhibition held a three-day Junior Farmer Camp. A build-
ing was provided for the showing of exhibits. The following special
projects were sponsored : 1 Calf Club, 1 Grain Club, 2 Sheep Clubs, 3
Potato Clubs and 1 Home Garden Club.
At Ottawa, the Central Canada Exhibition Association organized a
Boys' Calf Club Camp. One hundred and seventy-eight boys were housed
in tents for five days. An equal number of calves were provided with
accommodation in six large tents nearby. In addition to calf and show-
manship classes, judging competition and parade of calves, the camp
members were provided with meals and a full five-day programme, includ-
ing trips to points of interest in Ottawa and a seat on the grandstand for
one of the evening performances.
BOYS' CLUB WORK
Club work with boys between the ages of 12 and 20 continues to hold
its popularity and is making excellent progress. The Agricultural Repre-
sentative assumes responsibility for the organization of boys' clubs,
assisted by a volunteer club leader and a committee of three (one of whom
is the Agricultural Representative). Each club is sponsored by a local
organization which, in addition to taking personal and direct interest in
the club members, agrees to pay one-third of the prize money and often
arranges suitable credit on which club members can purchase a good calf,
pair of pigs, group of sheep or a flock of baby chicks.
In the live stock clubs, particularly those of calf, colt and swine, the
membership has increased from year to year. In many cases the Ontario
Live Stock Branch Officers contribute their services to the work, particu-
larly on Achievement Days. The Live Stock Branch also contributed
$712.50 in grants to 52 colt clubs and $1,640.32 to 88 calf clubs.
In 1939, 5,085 boys and girls were enrolled in 316 clubs — an increase
of 759 club members and 45 clubs over the previous year.

LIVE STOCK BRANCH
HORSES
It is generally conceded that the number of stallions enrolled in any
year is a very good criterion of the amount of breeding being done. In 1939
there w-ere 1,701 stallions standing for public service, the greatest number
in any year since 1919, when 1,729 were enrolled. This number gradually
and steadily decreased each year until 1932 when 1,013 horses w-ere en-
rolled. In 1933 there w^as an increase and this condition has continued up
to the present time, reaching the high figure of 1,701 in 1939. It would
appear that horse breeding in Ontario is now- on the same basis as in 1919.
General conditions in agriculture and industry have had a decided
influence on the trend of horse production. The period covered by the early
1920's witnessed the introduction of mechanical power on the farm. It
also marked a period when the price of farm products w^as highly satis-
factory, so much so that many farmers began to show a preference for
tractors. Automotive power began replacing horses in industrial centres.
These two conditions resulted in a reduced demand for horses. When the
depression came in the late 1920's and early 1930's farmers again began
thinking in terms of horses. They realized that they could produce the fuel
required for horse power, w^hich was not the case with the tractor. During
the first years of the depression horses that were becoming old should have
been discarded but were forced to carry on. It was inevitable that sooner
or later replacements would be necessary. After the low point in the cycle
was reached in 1932 the trend began to show an upw-ard turn. The increase
has continued to the present time. During the last few years horses have
found a ready sale at good prices, but a slight dropping off in demand was
noted in 1939. As a result of increased breedings in previous years it would
appear that the supply has again caught up with the demand.
54 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
At the outbreak of war many farmers began thinking of increased
production. Implement manufacturers were quick to sense this situation.
Most fairs following the outbreak of war were featured by large displays
of farm machinery, which resulted in many sales. Undoubtedly many pur-
chases were made in anticipation of higher prices for farm products. The
advance in farm commodity prices to date has not been up to expectations
and Ibis condition has caused a temporary lull in implement buying. Never-
theless, if the prices of farm products advance, tractors may again replace
horses on many farms. In view of this possibility, coupled with the fact
that the war has not as yet created any new demand for horses, it w'ould
appear that Ontario has reached another stage in the cycle — a stage when
horse breeding may be on the decline.
STALLION ENROLMENT
The Ontario Department of Agriculture has been endeavouring to
improve the horses of the Province by regulating the kind of stallions that
can be used for public service. There were 174 Form 1 horses and 215
Form 2 horses enrolled in 19o9. All amounts paid by the Province are
duplicated by the Federal Department of Agriculture. The Ontario Depart-
ment, through its Live Stock Branch, paid out $12,050 for premiums in
1939 to the owners of 263 stallions.
Following is an analysis of the stallions qualifying for premiums
according to breeds: Percherons. 104; Clydesdales, 98; Belgians, 31;
Thoroughbreds, 10 ; Standard Breds, 7 ; Hackneys, 6 ; German Coach, 4 ;
French Coach, 2; French-Canadian, 1.

CATTLE
It is estimated that Canada produces an annual suriilus of almost a
quarter of a million cattle. The i)est market for the surplus cattle is in
the United States because of the proximity of the important markets of
that country to the areas of production in this Dominion. A duty of three
cents a pound was imposed on Canadian cattle entering the States in 1930.
and on January 1st, 1939, a new Canadian- American agreement became
effective and under the terms of that agreement the duty was reduced to
one and one-half cents a pound. Canada is permitted to supply 51,720
cattle during each quarter of the year and exports amounted to 191.101
head. Of this nunibi-r Ontario furnished 61.837 head of beef cattle and
6,537 head of dairy cattle.

SWINE
There have been two major developments affecting the swine industry
of Canada in the past eight years. The first one took place in 1932 at the
time of the Imperial Conference, when Canada and Great Britain entered
into a trade agreement with respect to the export of bacon. Since the
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE
war began the British Government agreed and guaranteed to purchase
5,600,000 lbs. weekly from Canada. Great Britain has further intimated
that she will purchase as much more as possible, but has given no definite
guarantee covering amounts in advance of those stated above.
Early in August, Ontario packers announced that on and after August
24th they would purchase hogs on the basis of rail grade and rail weight
only. This announcement was received by producers with mingled feelings
of praise and protest ; nevertheless, the practise has continued and is
gradually becoming more popular. Producers are beginning to realize as
never before the importance of marketing hogs at the proper weight.
Ontario still produces more hogs than any Province in the Dominion. In
1939 Ontario marketings were 1,667.991 head, and at inspected Packing
Plants marketings amounted to 1,384,996 hogs. The total inspected
marketings for the Dominion were 3,628,369 head. 32.01 per cent of
Ontario's hogs graded select.
Certain well-defined areas within our Province continue to produce
hogs of relatively poor quality. These areas include Southwestern and
Eastern Ontario. The Ontario Department of Agriculture has directed
its main efforts toward improving the quality of hogs produced in those
sections that are below average.
BACON HOG CLUBS
Most boars owned in the Province are maintained for public service,
and exert a wide influence over the type and quality of hogs produced in
any community. Departments of Agriculture realize that the best way to
improve our commercial hogs is by exercising some measure of control
over the type of boars used for public service, consequently they are
sponsoring a policy known as the bacon hog club policy. Under the terms
of this policy, boars are loaned to communities in which clubs are organ-
ized. The policy is applicable in only those sections of the Province where
good boars are not readily available. This clause has been interpreted by
the Departments as referring particularly to Southwestern and Eastern
Ontario. The above facts are further borne out by the type and quality
of hogs produced in those sections, which hogs are vastly inferior to those
produced in Central and Western Ontario. The policy is administered by
officers of the Ontario Live Stock Branch, with the Federal Department
sharing equally in all costs excepting administration. Any money obtained
from the sale or salvage of old boars is retained by the Ontario Depart-
ment.
Following is a summary of bacon hog clubs up to the end of the fiscal
year:

During the year 100 boars were purchased, some for new clubs and
some for replacement in old clubs, at a cost of 83,567.25. Transportation
amounted to $471.82. bringing the total cost up to S4.039.07. Since one-
half was refunded bv the Dominion Department, the net cost to the
Province was $2,019.53.
This policy grants authority to place boars under special circum-
stances. This privilege has been exercised in only those districts where
farmers have shown a special desire to improve the standard of their
hogs, for example, in some communities farmers, and more particularly
junior farmers, have displayed an inclination to purchase pure-bred sows
of Advanced Registry breeding for the purpose of participating in a bacon
litter competition, or of testing pigs under the Advanced Registry policy.
To assist these men in becoming established in the pig business, the
Departments have placed boars under the terms of the bacon hog club
policy. Boars were placed under such circumstances in the Counties of
Oxford, Halton, Grey and Durham. A number of farmers in Oxford
County tested sows that had been mated to the club boar stationed there.
The results were highly satisfactory, and as a consequence that boar is
now a qualified sire.
SOW DISTRIBUTION
The bacon litter competition has been sponsored for the purpose of
encouraging the distribution of good sows. Farmers signifying their
intention to participate must procure pure-bred sows. Prizes are offered
for the outstanding performance of these sows. Such points as size of
litter, rate of gains and quality of hogs marketed are considered in award-
ing prizes. Three competitions were completed during the year, as
follows :
Number
Number Qualifying for Cost to the
County Participating Prize Money Ontario Dept.
Renfrew 12 4 $20.00
Haldimand 11 3 15.00
Simcoe 28 9 45.00
During the fall months large numbers of pure-bred sows were placed
in the Counties of Leeds. Glengarry and Renfrew in anticipation of com-
petitions being conducted in 1940-41. A number of pig clubs were formed
last year where the members obtained pure-bred weanling pigs.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 50
The Ontario Department co-operated with the Federal Department
in sponsoring the brood sow policy. Extensive plans were made for placing
sows following the outbreak of war. Such plans were interrupted when
serious outbreaks of hog cholera occurred in various parts of the Province.
Health authorities refused to permit the movement of sows from packing
plants and stock yards to country points. Members of the Department
then made a survey of sows available in the hands of breeders. Practically
all the good pure-bred sows available during the fall months were pur-
chased and distributed, a great many going into the three counties
mentioned above. A number of sows were held by breeders, bred, and
finally offered for sale at a public auction held in the County of Kent
during the month of January. Forty-eight bred sows were sold in that
sale at an average price of $45.25. A carload of sows was also shipped
to Cochrane District, in Northern Ontario. The cost of sow distribution
in the Province was shared by the Federal Department.
BOAR PURCHASES
In addition to the boars purchased for clubs organized in Ontario,
members of the Live Stock Branch staff purchased or assisted in the
purchase of boars for other Provinces. During the month of October
two carloads of serviceable age boars were procured for distribution in
Saskatchewan. In December another carload was purchased for that
Province, and also a carload of younger boars for the Province of Alberta.
BACON HOG FAIRS
Following is a summary of bacon hog fairs held in the Province
during the year :

Cobden 50.00
Classes for both breeding stock and market hogs were featured.
Entries in the latter classes were sold by sealed tender, and in all cases
the prices received were considerably in advance of those prevailing on
the market at the time of the fair.
SHEEP
The sheep industry in Ontario underwent some decided changes in
1939. A brisk upturn in business appeared owing to the declaration of
war. While this upturn was not at all violent, there was quite a consider-
able demand for breeding stock.
60 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
The Ontario Department of Agriculture assisted the Ontario Sheep
Breeders to import five stud rams from England and Scotland. These
were brought out in an effort to supply Ontario flocks with new blood,
which has been badly needed. Suffolk, Hampshire, Southdown and
Leicester rams were placed in stud service at the 0. A. C, Guelph, for the
use of Ontario breeders, while the Lincoln ram was placed in Western
Ontario. Many breeders in the Province took advantage of this to secure
new blood in their flocks.
LAMB FAIRS
During the season of 1939 lamb fairs were held at various points in
the Province, principally in the northern districts. These were held in
co-operation with the Federal Department of Agriculture, the purpose
being to assist the sheep breeders in those areas to market a uniform type
of lamb, and also to encourage co-operative marketing on a graded basis.
Prize moneys were paid at each fair and were contributed on an equal
basis by the Ontario and Federal Departments of Agriculture.
Clubs were formed during the past year in the Thunder Bay area, for
which the Ontario Department of Agriculture purchased 11 Hampshire
rams. A pure-bred Southdown club was also formed in the County of
Brant, for which six Southdown rams were purchased. Following is a
list of lamb fairs held in the Province, and also a list of sheep clubs to
which prize money was paid :

ASSISTANCE TO EXHIBITORS AT FOREIGN EXHIBITIONS
The Ontario Department of Agriculture has each year given financial
assistance, amounting to 50 'r of the freight charges, to live stock associ-
ations exhibiting at Foreign Exhibitions. Each year many of our exhibitors
take advantage of such assistance. It makes possible many sales which
otherwise would not take place, and it also serves as an advertising medium
for Ontario live stock. This assistance was given to cattle, sheep and
horse associations and amounted to $1,067.70, being divided as follows:
Cattle, $607.08; Sheep, $261.59; Horses, $199.03.

SWINE CLUBS
Swine Clubs in Ontario are becoming more popular, and in 1939
were decidedly prominent in swine improvement work. Selections are
made in most cases from herds where Advanced Registry work is practised.
The distribution of these animals in sections of the Province where the
percentage of select hogs is low has very materially assisted in improving
our commercial hogs. The Durham County Swine Club was the successful
winner in the inter-club competition at Guelph, This is one of the counties
in which selective swine improvement work has been practised. The
Ontario Live Stock Branch contributed $40 towards prizes in this com-
petition. Following is a summary of the Swine Clubs held in the Province
during 1939 :

Local Poultry Associations
The Ontario Live Stock Branch has been assisting Poultry men
through grants to Local Poultry Associations. The following is a summary
of assistance rendered during 1939 :
Number of Associations holding a Show during the fiscal year 18
Number of Poultry Judges and Lecturers supplied 16
Total amount of Grants paid to Local Associations $831.00
Total Expenditures in connection with Judges, Lecturers, etc. $177.23
LIVE STOCK PROTECTION ACT
This Act gives protection to the owners of cattle or sheep killed or
damaged by dogs. It provides the municipality or the owner with the
right of appeal in cases where there is dissatisfaction with the award made
by the Local Valuer. The Act is administered by the Ontario Live Stock
Branch and when appeals are lodged qualified Live Stock Valuers are sent
to investigate the loss and make final awards. During 1939 appeals were
received from the Counties of Ontario, Perth, Halton and Dufferin.
BRANDING OF LIVE STOCK ACT
Under the terms of this Act, the Director of the Live Stock Branch
is designated as "Recorder of Brands" for the Province. Since this Act
was amended to include poultry, many poultry men have been taking
advantage of it. It is generally believed that the branding of poultry has
been a strong deterrent in poultry stealing in the Province. A total of
2,643 poultry brands have been recorded to March 31st, 1940.
LIVE STOCK ASSOCIATIONS
The office of Secretary of a number of Ontario Live Stock Associations
is held by members of the Ontario Live Stock Branch. These include the
following Associations :
Ontario Horse Breeders' Association.
Ontario Cattle Breeders' Association.
Ontario Sheep Breeders' Association.
Ontario Swine Breeders' Asosciation.
Ontario Yorkshire Breeders' Society.
Ontario Berkshire Breeders' Society.
Ontario Tamworth Breeders' Society.
Ontario Aberdeen Angus Breeders' Association.
Ontario Poultry Association.
Canadian Pony Society.
Canadian Shire Horse Breeders' Association.
Ontario Poultry Confederation.
The executive work in connection with these organizations is carried
on by the Secretary. In addition to holding annual meetings, some of
these organizations hold other meetings of a special nature during the
year. Some of these events during 1939 were :
(1) The Sheep Breeders' Field Day, sponsored by the Ontario Sheep
Breeders' Association, held during the month of June at the Ontario
Agricultural College, Guelph.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 63
(2) The Yorkshire Field Day, sponsored by the Ontario Yorkshire
Breeders' Society, also held at Guelph during the month of June.
(3) The Aberdeen Angus Sale, sponsored by the Ontario Aberdeen
Angus Association, held in LxDndon during the month of June.
(4) The Yorkshire Sale, sponsored by the Ontario Yorkshire Breed-
ers' Society, held this year at Dresden in Lambton County, owing to the
cancellation of the Royal Winter Fair.
ONTARIO PROVINCIAL WINTER FAIR
Owing to the outbreak of war, the Ontario Provincial Winter Fair
which has been held in the City of Guelph each year, was cancelled. The
home of the Fair was taken over by the Militia, with the result that other
arrangements had to be made. In an effort to accommodate live stock
exhibitors who had fitted commercial cattle, sheep and swine, a "Com-
mercial Live Stock Show" was held at the Union Stock Yards, West
Toronto, under the management of the Ontario Provincial Winter Fair.
This Show was merely for the purpose of selling to advantage the animals
which had been fitted for both the Royal and the Guelph Winter Fairs.
The Live Stock Sale at the Show brought a total of $26,966.62. The Union
Stock Yards assisted very materially in making this Show a success.
Accommodation was provided and every assistance possible was given by
the management of the Stock Yards. The actual prize money paid out at
this Show was $2,236.
A "Seed Show" was also held under the auspices of the Ontario Pro-
v^incial Winter Fair in the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, during the week
of February 12th. This Show was sponsored to provide an outlet for the
seed men who were formerly dependent on the Winter Fairs for a place
of sale. This Show was quite successful and very much appreciated by
the seed men of Ontario.
WOMEN'S INSTITUTE BRANCH
ORGANIZATION
Thirty-eight Institutes were organized and 19 disbanded, making the
present number of active Institutes 1,391 (including 96 Junior Institutes)
with an approximate membership of 40,300.
District Annuo! Meetings
Annual meetings were held in 98 districts, with a total attendance
of 11,385. A representative of the Women's Institute Branch was present
at each meeting to assist in planning the home economics programme.
Conventions
Thirteen area conventions were held, with a total attendance of
approximately 4,035, the majority being delegates from Institutes or
districts. A representative of the Women's Institute Branch attended each
convention, as did the President of the Federated Women's Institutes of
Ontario. Several of the areas were privileged to hear Mrs. Alfred Watt,
O.B.E., London, England, President of the Associated Country Women of
the World. Seven areas gave special prominence of Health, featuring
Cancer Control. They were indebted to the Society for the Control of
Cancer for the presentation of this subject by doctors who are making a
special study of cancer.

FEDERATED WOMEN'S INSTITUTES OF ONTARIO
The Provincial Board met in April and November. The officers for
1939-40 were as follows :

The Federation has been honoured b^' having The Lady Tweedsmuir
act as Honourary President and regrets the loss of an enthusiastic sup-
porter and inspiring leader, occasioned by the return of The Lady Tweeds-
muir to England.
The Treasurer's Annual Report showed receipts of $7,946.47 and dis-
bursements of 84,750.17, with a balance of $3,196.30.
The War Charities Fnnd
In January 1940, the Federated Women's Institutes of Ontario estab-
lished a Central Fund for War Charities, in accordance with the War
Charities Act (Ottawa). This fund is to be used (1) to assist Institutes
in outlying districts, or those which are unable to raise funds locally, by
supplying them with wool or other material for war work, (2) to con-
tribute gifts of money or equipment to meet bona fide appeals, and (3) to
provide a reserve fund which will be quickly available in the event of
emergency or disaster. This fund is administered by a special committee.
By an appeal to Institute members only for a contribution of 5 cents
each, the sum of $1,147.83 was raised by March 31, 1940.
Committees
Standing Committees continue to function and Special Committees
have been appointed to investigate phases of special war work.
Special War Work
Most of the Institutes are co-operating with the Canadian Red Cross
Society in their activities for the relief of suffering and the promotion of
health. Others are co-operating with the Navy League, the Salvation
Army or the I.O.D.E. Thirty-two Institutes have registered under the
War Charities Act. It is regrettable that figures cannot be secured to
record the contribution which rural women will make through agriculture
to Canada's war effort.
Scottish Rural Wome)i's Institutes
A group of 60 members of the S. R.W.I, toured Southern Ontario
between July 29 and August 7, 1939. They visited several Institutes en
route, but were particularly enthusiastic about their visit to Stoney Creek,
which they considered "a pilgrimage."
Foreign Affiliations
Correspondence has been arranged through the Women's Institute
Branch with Institutes and similar organizations in other Provinces of
Canada and in other countries, as follows: Australia, 20; England, 35;
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 65
New Zealand, 32; Scotland, 7; South Africa, 4. Since the outbreak of
war the Federation of British Women's Institutes has made a special
appeal for "Letter Friends" to counteract the effect of war in narrowing
horizons and to help prevent the feeling of isolation.
Put}iann Memorial Fund
Through this fund, which is furnished by the Federated Women's
Institutes of Ontario and administered by the Women's Institute Branch,
18 bales, with an approximate weight of 1,865 pounds, were sent to vari-
ous parts of Northern Ontario. Fewer appeals for aid have been presented
than for the past three years, due, in part, to the fact that fewer homes
have suffered from forest fires.
CO-OPERATIVE PROGRAMME IN HOME ECONOMICS
The Women's Institute Branch continues to be responsible for an
educational programme to promote efficient homemaking. As in previous
years, provision was made for the study of each of the following : Clothing
and Textiles, Foods and Nutrition, Health Education, Home Crafts, Hous-
ing, and Administrative Leadership. Instruction was given through local
leader training schools, three-day and five-day short courses, speaker
service and officers' rallies.
Because the programme year (July 1 to June 30) does not coincide
with the fiscal year, it is difficult to give a clear and accurate picture of
the work accomplished through the Co-operative Programme. But some
idea of what has been done may be gathered from the reports presented
by the home economics instructors.

68 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
One unit, "The Club Girl Entertains," was added to the homemaking
club programme for the fall and winter of 1939-40. Twenty-seven train-
ing schools were held in this unit, resulting in 218 clubs, the largest
number of clubs to carry on the same unit at the same time since the
inception of homemaking club work, in 1935.
During the winter of 1939-40, 433 clubs were carrying on with 2,951
active members.
Winter Short Courses
From November 1939 to March 1940, 43 one-month courses in Home
Economics were held in conjunction with courses in Agriculture organized
by the County Agricultural Representatives. In every course Foods and
Nutrition were taught and, in addition. Health Education was included in
14 courses and Clothing in 17. The total enrolment was 1,194, v/ith an
average attendance of 21.
Special two-week courses were held in four centres, with an enrol-
ment of 104 and an average attendance of 20.
Girls' Conference
In May 1939, the fourteenth annual conference of rural Ontario Girls
was held at the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, with 446 in attend-
ance. This conference is organized and carried on by the Women's
Institute Branch co-operating with the staff of the College.
GENERAL ACTIVITIES OF THE WOMEN'S INSTITUTE BRANCH
Stajf Co7iferences
Two staff conferences were held during the year. In December 1939,
the home economics coaches met for three days to plan the junior pro-
gramme for the year. In March 1940, the staff of speakers for district
annual meetings in 1940 met to discuss the presentation of the Co-operative
Programme in Home Economics at these meetings.
Packet Loan Collection
To assist members in the preparation of programme material
during the past year, 881 Institutes were served with information on such
subjects as : Education, Health and Child Welfare, Legislation, Canadian-
ization, and Home Economics.
Distribution of Literature
Four issues (168,000 copies) of "Home and Country," financed by
the Women's Institute Branch and the Federated Women's Institutes of
Ontario, were printed and distributed free of charge to each Institute
member.
A bulletin on conservation of fruits and vegetables, prepared jointly
by the Home Economics staff of Macdonald Institute, Guelph, and the
Home Economics Department of the Kemptville Agricultural School, and
the Women's Institute Branch, was made ready for distribution in May
1940.
Other literature printed during the year included the Co-operative
Programme in Home Economics for 1940-41 and the revision of the leaf-
lets on Fruits, Vegetables and Salads.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 69
New mimeographed material was prepared for distribution to leaders
and members of the senior clothing project "Lingerie," and in the junior
clubs. "The Club Girl Entertains."
Corre.^povdence
In addition to 90 circular letters with a circulation of about 27,760,
approximately 17,000 letters were sent out during the year.
Legifilative Grants
The total amount disbursed as grants to districts and to Institutes,
which asked for this service and had met the necessary requirements, was
$6,229.50. Of this amount $3,766.50 was paid to districts and $2,463.00
to Institutes.
CO-OPERATION WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AND AGENCIES
The Women's Institute Branch wishes to acknowledge the assistance
given so generously by other Branches of the Deoartment of Agriculture,
especially the Ontario Agricultural College and Macdonald Institute, the
Agricultural Representatives Branch, the Fruit Branch and the Agricul-
tural and Horticultural Societies Branch.
The Women's Institute Branch co-operated with the Agricultural
Representatives Branch and the Horticultural Societies Branch by pro-
viding a lecturer on "Beautifying the Home With Paint" for a series of
12 meetings on Home Beautification in Carleton County, having an
attendance of 892 men and women.
With the co-operation of Macdonald Institute and the Ontario Agri-
cultural College, a two-day school for judges of Home Section exhibits at
fall fairs was held at the College. There was an enrolment of 44. Instruc-
tion and limited practice in judging were included. Assistance v/as given
by members of the Women's Institute staff at the Women's Section of the
Agricultural Societies Convention in Toronto, and at several district
meetings of the Agricultural Societies.
Co-operation has been continued with such organizations as the
Ontario Association for Adult Education, Canadian Red Cross Society,
Canadian Welfare Council, Ontario Society for Crippled Children, Cana-
dian Association for Prevention of Tuberculosis, St. John Ambulance
Association, Canadian Institute for the Blind and the Canadian National
Exhibition.
OUTLOOK
The primary function of the Women's Institute Branch is still to
provide an educational programme in homemaking. Our continued objec-
tive is to maintain high standards of home life, remembering that homes
exi.st primarily for the promotion of satisfying home life and the develop-
ment of every member of the family.
The outbreak of the war has, of necessity, affected our viewpoint.
Special emphasis has been placed on two phases of homemaking — good
nutrition and the conservation of all goods. The Women's Institute pro-
gramme should be sufficiently elastic that it may meet the unforeseen
demands which will be made upon Ontario women during war-time.
70 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
FRUIT BRANCH
Following a normal winter and light crops of several of our tender
fruits in 1938, expectations were for larger crops, particularly of peaches
and grapes, in 1939. The completed figures as issued by the Statistics
Branch show substantial increases in strawberries, peaches, grapes and
apples, with slight decreases in pears, plums and cherries. Increased
plantings in peaches and apples are beginning to show in these statistics
as the new orchards come into bearing, and marketing problems will
increase unless even larger quantities are absorbed by the processing
industry.
The vegetable season was favourable for production of one of the
best crops in years. Demand for processing was lighter in some lines and
the acreage under contract was considerably reduced, particularly in
tomatoes. The late canning season was stimulated by the war situation
and as a result a good clean-up was made of all field tomatoes. The winter
market was also much better for carrots, potatoes, etc., which will prob-
ably result in heavier plantings of these crops.
During the height of the tender fruit shipping season, the outbreak
of war, with the unfortunate sugar situation that followed, disrupted
markets to such an extent that prices were disastrous. The processing
schemes under the Farm Products Control Act helped save the situation
as prices for the main canning crops were stabilized earlier in the season
and the canneries absorbed a large percentage of the crop.
With a particularly heavy crop of grapes, fresh fruit prices were low
and the situation was aggravated by the buying on behalf of the distilling
interests of large quantities at prices much lower than for wine purposes.
Growers reported that some sales for the wineries were made contingent
on the furnishing at reduced prices of a certain percentage for distilling,
both deliveries being made to the same plant.
Accurate figures are now available of the total amounts of both fruits
and vegetables used by the various processing interests. The Statistics
Branch reports that, despite lower unit values in many lines, there were
increases in gross values over 1938. Totals were $3,730,179 in vegetables
and $2,080,873 in fruits, the largest item being tomatoes, with beans,
grapes and peaches in order of importance. About 550 million pounds of
produce were delivered from the farms to the factories.
Orchard inspection was continued in co-operation with the Federal
Department of Agriculture, the fall work just starting when war broke
out. As no information as to exports was available, the inspection was
completed with the hope that part at least of the crop could find an outlet
in Great Britain. The great bulk of the export varieties were found free
of apple m.aggot and. despite the partial embargo enforced against both
Canada and the U.S.A., finally found a market in Great Britain to jhe
extent of over 60,000 barrels.
The commercial apple crop again showed an increase, being over the
million barrel mark, the figure attained previous to tlie disastrous freeze
of 1933-34. With large plantings during this period not yet in bearing,
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 71
the prospects are for a further increase in coming years. Outside altogether
of the situation caused by the war, it would be a wise policy for our grow-
ers to eliminate the older trees and undesirable varieties from their
orchards.
The zoning of our markets for apples by the Federal Government,
together with the advertising carried on, successfully disposed of the 1939
crop even if early prices were quite low. The advertising arranged by the
Ontario growers themselves in the spring cleared up what looked like a
surplus of Spies from the 1938 crop, while the radio and other publicity
arranged by the growers and dealers during the fresh fruit season also
lielpod materially with the disposal of the various fruits and vegetables.
Inspection of nurseries under the Plant Diseases Act was intensified
so as to complete the list of such firms carrying on business and to see
that their stock complied with the regulations required both for local and
inter-provincial markets. There are now registered 96 nurseries and a
further 12 are under inspection with a view to having their premises also
licensed.
During the summer, the cold storage plant at Brighton was repaired
by the Public Works Department. A new roof on the entire building was
found necessary and this allowed of a change in the height of one room,
increasing the storage capacity and permitting of better storing of the
fruit therein. The building was again filled to capacity as was the nearby
storage at Trenton. With the coming into bearing of many new plantings
of Mcintosh and Spy in Northumberland and Durham, there will undoubt-
edly be a shortage of refrigerator space for apples soon in the district east
of Toronto.
Owing to the above conditions, it was necessary to arrange for storage
of considerable quantities of apples in Montreal and subsequently to look
after the same as to condition. Our staff carried out the necessary work
and assisted later in the disposal of the fruit for export and on Montreal
market.
The vegetable field man covered all parts of the Province in as far as
time would permit. Meetings of local units of the Vegetable Growers'
Association, together with judging of the crop competitions carried on by
the members, formed the greater part of the work. Judging of gardens
and field crops and lectures on home gardens to Horticultural Societies,
Women's Institutes and Agricultural short courses were included in his
activities.
Among other lines of work were lectures on the Reserves, arranged
by the Federal Department of Indian Affairs. Great interest is being
shown by the residents of these Reserves in their gardens. Similarly,
community and veterans gardens are now being carried on in a great
many localities and as a result of recent legislation relief gardens have
been added. The Department has furnished the services of its Vegetable
Specialist to advise on many of these projects.

CROPS, SEEDS AND WEEDS BRANCH
The activities of this Branch during 1939 consisted of the installation
and supervision of seed cleaning plants ; administration of the Weed Con-
trol Act ; experimental work with chemical weed killers ; demonstrations
with chemicals; registration of threshing machines; purchase and ship-
ment of seed grain to Northern Ontario; administration of the lime sub-
vention policy; advertising and payment of prize money to Ontario
exhibitors at the International Grain and Hay Show, Chicago ; tests with
seed treaters and fanning mills ; publication of a new weed bulletin ;
chemical pamphlet and pamphlet on the hulling of clover ; payment of
grants to district and county seed fairs; maintenance of a Secretary-
Treasurer's office for the Ontario Crop Improvement Association ; organ-
ization of Branches of the Association ; assistance at seed fairs ; and annual
meeting and seed display.
SEED CLEANING PLANTS
Under the seed cleaning plant subvention policy, Federal and Pro-
vincial assistance in the form of a grant is available to any person, group
of persons, organization or company who install a seed cleaning plant.
This grant may be paid on 50 'r of the invoice price of machines, plus
50 9f of the freight, not to exceed $500.00 in any one case. Certain pro-
visions must be complied with in order to qualify for this grant.
New seed cleaning plants were installed during the year at Chesley,
Honeywood, Alvinston, Bowmanville, Belleville and Napanee.
Eighty-nine plants have been installed to date. The following is a
brief summary of the work done by these plants during the past five years :
1934-1395
1935 - 1936
1936-1937
1937-1938
1938- 1939
TESTS WITH SEED TREATERS
In co-operation with the Ontario Agricultural College, tests were con-
ducted with six seed treaters which are recommended for the treatment
of seed with mercury dust, the object being to determine the efficiency of
the various machines on the market with a view to being in a position to
recommend one or more machines which may be used by individual farm-
ers and also included as part of the equipment in central seed cleaning
plants. Samples of seed were sent to the Botany Division. Central Experi-
mental Farm. Ottawa, before and after treatment for pathological tests.
Reports regarding the results of the tests, together with suggestions
regarding how the machines might be improved, were sent to each manu-
facturer. Improvements have been made to the various machines which
have improved their efficiency and it is expected that definite recommen-
dations will be made in the near future.

LIME SUBVENTION POLICY
The lime subvention policy between the Provincial Department of
Agriculture and the Canadian National, Canadian Pacific and associated
railways was continued. Under the policy, the railways have agreed to
reduce the freight 25 '^ on carload shipments of agricultural limestone.
The Provincial Department of Agriculture pays 50 'r of the reduced
freight, the maximum grant being 81.00 per ton.
The following amount of limestone was moved under the policy during
the past two years :
1939 _ Number of Cars, 100 ; 3,354.70 tons of Limestone
1938 — Number of Cars, 130; 4,471.12 tons of Limestone
a reduction of 30 cars.
DISTRICT SEED FAIRS
Three district seed fairs were held during the year.
A crop meeting, a judging competition and a seed sale were held at
each of these district fairs. Several educational exhibits were set up at
each fair, including one from this Branch of the Department of Agri-
culture. These fairs gave all interested in crop production and crop
improvement an opportunity to discuss their problems ; to see what could
be produced in the district ; to dispose of their surplus seed and to purchase
their seed requirements. The quality and quantity of exhibits and attend-
ance at each fair was most gratifying.
ONTARIO CROP IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION
The Ontario Crop Improvement Association, which was reorganized
two years ago, had a successful year, with 23 Branches organized during
the vear, bringing the total to 40. Some 74 projects were conducted in
1939.
During the spring months 14 seed fairs were held by Branches of the
Association, 1,617 exhibitors entered 2,753 samples representing 58,960
bushels of seed for sale; 12,185 attended these fairs and crop meetings,
which formed part of every fair.

The annual meeting in Toronto was the best in the history of the
organization. A seed display in connection with the meeting consisted
of representative quantities of seed for sale. Information regarding the

ADMINISTRATION OF THE WEED CONTROL ACT
Considerable progress was made in the eradication and control of
weeds during 1939. Approximately 1,000 weed inspectors were appointed
by the municipal councils throughout the Province. Six District Weed
Inspectors were appointed by the Department of Agriculture, their duty
being to supervise the work and to co-operate with all concerned in the
administration of the Act.
Information and supplies in connection with the work were sent out
to all municipal weed inspectors from this office.
This Branch endeavoured during the year to make the general public
more weed conscious. Our District Weed Inspectors discussed weeds and
weed control at short courses, seed fairs, crop meetings and weed meetings.
County and municipal councils were visited. A timely article on "The
Weed of the Week" appeared in the press during the summer months. An
educational exhibit on Field Bindweed, Clover Dodder and Leafy Spurge
was set up at several seed fairs. Public opinion regarding weed control
is becoming more favourable each year.
Clover Dodder, Perennial Sow Thistle, Wild Carrot, Bladder Campion,
Chicory, Leafy Spurge, Cypress Spurge, St. John's Wort, Hawkweeds and
Blue Weed are considered as being our worst weeds in the Province.
Indifference on the part of some municipal councils regarding ihe
administration of the Act, and appointment and payment of inspectors
constitutes one of our greatest problems.
During the year 7,085 threshing machines were registered under this
Act; 4,807 of this number were registered as being for hire, 2,278 as
being not for hire.
CHEMICAL WEED KILLERS
Much more interest was shown in chemical weed killers in 1939.
Thirty-six county demonstrations were conducted throughout the Province.
This Branch paid for rental of sprayers and purchase of material for each
of these demonstrations and also supervised the work, the object being to
stimulate more interest in this method of eradicating weeds, particularly
from roadsides.
Some 2,800,000 lbs. of Stephen Weed Killer, a new patented prepara-
tion controlled in Ontario by the Province, was used, in addition to
considerable Atlacide and Sodium Chlorate. Twelve new power sprayers
were purchased by various counties and municipalities; 18 sprayers were
rented and it is estimated that approximately 125 municipalities used this
means of eradicating roadside weeds.
Some 10,000 chemical pamphlets were distributed and a talk was
given over CBL the latter part of June on chemical weed killers.
Experimental work is being continued by the Branch at the Ontario
Agricultural College with a view to making available a chemical which
will be effective and cheap and which can be put up ready mixed in small
quantities.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 75
PURCHASE OF SEED GRAIN FOR NORTHERN ONTARIO
The purchase of seed grain for Northern Ontario was undertaken by
this Branch. The districts of Kenora, Rainy River, Thunder Bay, Algoma,
Sudbury, Nipissing. Temiskaming, Manitoulin and the counties of Victoria
and Renfrew were included under the policy.
All the grain purchased was graded in accordance with the Canada
Seeds Act and no seed grain lower than a No. 1 grade for purity and
germination was distributed, with the exception of grain which graded
No. 2 on account of the presence of other cultivated grains and color. The
Plant Products Division. Production Service, co-operated in the grading
of this seed. The distribution was taken care of by Agricultural Repre-
sentatives in their respective districts.

INTERNATIONAL GRAIN AND HAY SHOW
This Branch undertook to stimulate interest in this show among
growlers throughout the Province. Circular letters and prize lists were
distributed. Exhibits were collected at the Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph, and the Department of Agriculture, Essex, and forwarded to
Chicago.
Som.e 103 entries were sent from Ontario, including 03 of grain and
40 of corn. Ontario exhibitors won 70 prizes, including 10 firsts and 6
championships. Total prize money paid by Ontario was $360.
76 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
GENERAL CROP IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME
The following educational exhibits were set up at several district
and county seed fairs, also at the International Plowing Match and King
Edward Hotel during Convention Week: "Seed Cleaning Plants"; "Pas-
ture Improvement" ; "Smuts of Cereals" : "Fanning Mill Screens" ;
"Ontario Prize Winning Samples at Chicago."
Seed cleaning demonstrations were attended in several plants and
demonstrations on the reconditioning of the fanning mill were conducted
at several seed fairs and crop meetings.
Crop meetings in fields and halls were attended in several counties
and conferences of seed cleaning plant operators were held at the following
points : Ridgetown, Guelph, Belleville and Kemptville.
Timely news articles on crop production and crop improvement were
forwarded to the press from time to time during the year. Some 10,000
hay pasture posters were printed and distributed and a pamphlet on
reconditioning the fanning mill was given wide distribution.
THE CO-OPERATION AND MARKETS BRANCH
The activities of the Branch are devoted to finding new and larger
markets for farm products to take care of expanding production ; to
improving distribution and marketing methods as now generally adopted
and to getting greater net returns for the primary producers.
In Northern Ontario and in Northwestern Ontario this work is being
undertaken by Marketing Promoters located at New Liskeard and at Port
Arthur, respectively. These Marketing Promoters serve the farmers in
their respective districts by giving guidance in the crops to produce and
by finding outlets for the surplus products.
Temiskaming and Cochrane Districts
The sales of local grown farm produce during the year under review
were much below the volume of the year previous and while prices were
slightly higher the farmer's income was lower. Only 12 carloads of hay
were shipped, compared with some 50 to 200 carloads each winter during
the three years previous. The Marketing Promoter at New Liskeard has
encouraged feeding more live stock as an alternative market for grain and
fodder crops grown locally. An improved price for live stock has been
reported.
The reputation of Northern grown seed grain and of clover and grass
seeds has been maintained by insisting on a rigid inspection at the three
seed cleaning plants.
Potato crops varied widely. On suitable soil excellent yields of good
quality tubers were grown, whereas much of the crop on unsuitable soil
types proved disappointing and Eastern potatoes had to be shipped into
the area to meet the demand.
Raising of more live stock is now in evidence but the local abattoir
has been forced to close down, which may tend to discourage the raising
of live stock.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE
The Marketing promoter, on request, has acted as local fruit and
vegetable inspector. Much time was devoted to promote producer owned
and controlled buying and selling organizations.
The following illustrate the varied types of organization set up :
New Liskeard Milk Producers,
Noranda Milk Shippers,
Temiskaming Canning Co.,
Timmins Farmers' Market,
Cochrane Grading Plant,
Producers' Co-operative, Charlton,
Producers' Co-operative, Matheson,
Cheese Factory Patrons' Association, Cochrane.
Rainy River, Thunder Bay and Kenora Districts
Much progress has been made during the year in the production and
marketing of farm products in these districts. An agricultural conscious-
ness has developed in rural and urban areas. Farmers are changing their
production to those commodities which are required for local consumption.
Farm crops are being marketed to a greater extent through live stock
products. There has been a marked improvement in the proper preparation
of products for market, and farmers seem to realize more than ever before
that quality counts.
Many contacts, made between producers and consumers in former
years, have been followed up. New contacts were made for farm products
to the value of $21,346.27. Many contacts were also made for goods,
which were not followed up and reported.
One hundred and three farmers in Kenora area signed contracts to
grow malting barley. Eleven thousand bushels were marketed to the
company and in addition large quantities obtained for feeding purposes.
The project is being continued in 1940 and is also being extended to
Thunder Bay District.
Assistance was given in marketing clover seed and satisfactory out-
lets secured.
Attention was given to the City Markets and all report a record
season.
A survey was made of camp requirements for farm products and
information passed on to interested parties.
As Milk Control Board Representative, 54 investigations and reports
were made. Five prosecutions took place in the, area.
Old Ontario
Throughout the year members of the Branch have attended numerous
meetings seeking to encourage primary producers to organize for market-
ing as well as for the purchase of needed supplies. Some contacts have
been made with existing co-operatives in an endeavour to have improve-
ments made in the business administration of the companies.
78 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
The Assistant Director has again been appointed Secretary-Treasurer
of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario and of the Ontario Vegetable
Growers' Association. This contact has kept the Branch closely in touch
with producers' problems of which in more recent years marketing has
been one of the more pressing.
Thedford Cold Storage Co. Ltd.
This company was in arrears of interest and principal on a loan pay-
able to the Provincial Treasurer and the Government was forced to take
over the property of the company to protect its interests and operate the
plant for the benefit of the producers of celery and apples in the Thedford
district.
Certain repairs had to be undertaken to put the equipment in good
running condition and it was deemed advisable to rearrange the storage
chambers by providing three pre-cooling rooms for handling the celery.
This work was completed in time to handle the crops before severe weather
set in. The commodities stored comprised 18,347 crates celery, 2,837
hampers apples and 46 hampers lettuce. General satisfaction has been
expressed regarding the operation of the plant during the past winter.
Confidence largely has been re-established and in the course of time the
growers may be able to unite and co-operatively market their products.
Potato Fieldman
Extension work in disease control by demonstration plots by holding
meetings and by circulation of pamphlets and other literature has been
undertaken by the Potato Fieldman on this Branch. Efforts have been
made to develop markets for seed potatoes and for table stock potatoes.
Practically all the fully certified seed grown in the Ontario section
was purchased by growers for planting. A large portion of the crop that
passed field inspection for Certification but was not graded to the standard
of Certified Seed was also purchased for planting. This grade, when
treated, made very good seed for commercial crop production. In the
spring and fall of 1939 and in February 1940 five cars of Certified
Katahdins were shipped to New Brunswick and British Columbia, which
proved satisfactory. United States buyers were quite anxious to buy all
the Certified Chippewas that had been produced in Ontario but none were
shipped out of the Province and practically all of that variety produced
in 1939 were purchased for planting in 1940.
Interest in the larger use of Certified seed was stimulated by illus-
trating to growers the losses they were sustaining by producing crops
containing high percentages of disease. This was done by showing to
growers the amount of disease in their fields as compared with disease-free
crops, and by addresses at meetings explaining the detrimental effect that
diseased table stock has on the market.
Disease Control and Varieties
With the introduction into Ontario of the Katahdin and Chippewa
varieties the percentage of bacterial and virus diseases and also Late
Blight Rot has been greatly reduced. But these two varieties are more
susceptible to common scab which is causing some trouble and experi-
ments are being conducted this season for control of this disease.
The Netted Gem (Idaho Baker) has been planted to a greater extent
than formerly and some satisfactory crops were produced last year. The
acreage in this variety will be slightly increased this year.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 79
FARM PRODUCTS CONTROL BOARD
Under the Farm Products Control Act, the Farm Products Control
Board is given authority to create and supervise the operation of local
boards for regulating- the marketing of designated farm products. The
two chief features of the Act are, briefly :
(1) Provision to enable those who produce and market farm products to
constitute marketing machinery of their own through which they
may regulate the movement, direct the sale and determine the prac-
tices that shall prevail in the distribution of such products.
(2) Provision for the investigation of marketing conditions and practices
in connection with any designated farm product.
LOCAL BOARDS ESTABLISHED UNDER THE FARM
PRODUCTS CONTROL ACT TO MARCH 31st, 1940
The Ontario Cheese Producers' Marketing Board: As reported last
year, this was the first local board established under the Act. The purpose
of the scheme is :
(1) To require all cheese to be sold in Ontario on local cheese boards
under uniform rules and regulations;
(2) To defray the necessary expenses of the local board by a service
charge of five cents per one hundred pounds of cheese marketed.
The extent the local board has achieved its aim and object of stimu-
lating competition in buying cheese is evident from the figures that for
the year under review 93.14% of the cheese graded in Ontario was sold
on local cheese boards, whereas only 36.60% of the cheese graded was
sold on local cheese boards in 1935, the year operations commenced.
Approximately 87,212,341 lbs. of cheese were made in Ontario in 1939
from milk shipped by some 20,000 farmers; an increase in production of
1,252,418 lbs. from 1938.
The Ontario Peach Growers' Marketing Board: Some 611 growers
sold 8,557 tons of peaches for processing in 1939, which had a money
value of $374,402.44. This was a substantial increase from the 5,157 tons
of peaches sold by 460 growers for processing in 1938, which had a money
value of $251,298.95. The 1929 negotiated minimum price was 214c per
lb., compared to 2"i,5C per lb. in 1938. Subsequently "V" type peaches
were reduced to a minimum of 2c per lb. this year for all deliveries after
September 4th. Processors' tonnage of peaches from their own farms is
not included in the above figure.
Peaches for the wholesale and retail fresh fruit trade are exempt
from the plan.
The Ontario Asparagus Groovers' Marketing Board: Approximately
600 growers sold 2,070,922 lbs. of asparagus for processing in 1939, which
had a money value of $172,608.53. This compares with 1.241,035 lbs. of
asparagus sold for processing in 1938, which had a money value of
80 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
897,479.51. The 1939 asparagus negotiated minimum price of No. lA
(5") was lOi/oc per lb., No. IB (6") was 914c per lb., Utility Grade was
7c per lb., and No. 2 Grade 5c per lb., compared to the 1938 asparagus
negotiated minimum prices of No. IB (6") at 10c per lb., Utility Grade
7c per lb., and No. 2 Grade 5c per lb.
Asparagus for the wholesale and retail fresh vegetable trade is
exempt from the plan.
The Ontario Pear, Plum and Cherry Grotvers' Marketing Board: This
local board was established early in the 1938 crop year after a poll of the
growers concerned.
The purpose and operation of the local board is identical to the
asparagus and peach marketing plans.
Some 2,200 growers sold 1,997 tons of cherries, valued at $133,081.85 ;
799 tons of plums, valued at $20,851.30, and 5,003 tons of pears, valued
at $141,711.27, for processing in 1939, compared to the sale by some 1,560
growers of 1,985 tons of cherries, valued at $196,575.16; 385 tons of
plums, valued at $10,868.75, and 4,751 tons of pears, valued at $124,533.79,
for processing in 1938. Processors' tonnage of cherries from their own
farms is not included in the above figures.
Pears, plums and cherries for the wholesale and retail fresh fruit
trade are exempt from the plan.
General: It will be noted from the foregoing that these three grower
boards handling five commodities for processing only did a combined total
business in excess of $842,655.39 in 1939, compared to $678,414.30 in 1938.
Export Bonuses: A most interesting feature of these marketing
agreements is the bonus plans at present in operation on asparagus,
cherries and peaches whereby the growers concerned have voluntarily
agreed to assess their product so as to create a fund to develop export
trade.
The 1939 assessment on asparagus was 14c per pound of the total
pack and amounted to $5,177.35. This will be paid back pro rata to
processors exporting canned asparagus out of Canada provided those
processors had not imported any fresh asparagus for processing for
export.
The 1939 assessment on cherries (red sour varieties only) was Vic
per pound of the total pack. The fund thus created amounts to $10,482.34,
approximately, and will be pro rated back to processors exporting canned
cherries out of Canada on the same conditions as the asparagus fund but
with the additional provision that processors will be guaranteed a bonus
of Ic per pound on exports not exceeding 25% of the total quantity
processed.
The 1939 assessment on peaches applied only to the 2ioc per pound
product and was 14.C per pound of the total pack. The fund thus created
amounts to $34,314.27, approximately, and will be distributed like the
cherry bonus arrangement, except that the guarantee to processors is loc
per pound on exports not exceeding 50 'a of the total quantity processed.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 81
From the foregoing it will be noted that growers have put up $50,000,
approximately, this year of their own money to bonus the export of their
own product in processed form. The result has been a largely increased
export trade in Ontario canned asparagus, peaches and cherries at com-
petitive export prices. More particularly, the larger proportion of the
total canned goods pack has been sold on the domestic market at usual
higher prices than those obtained on the export market but growers' total
returns for fresh fruit have not been lowered to the export price level.
The Erie-St. Clair Onum Growers' Marketing Board: The Erie-St.
Clair Onion Growers' Marketing Board was established September 7th,
1939. The purpose of the plan, which was requested by a large majority
of the growers of all nationalities located chiefly in the highly fertile
marsh districts around Leamington, Jeannette's Creek and Erieau, Ont.,
was to set up a central co-operative selling organization through which
would be sold the Onion crop produced in the Counties of Essex and Kent.
Subsequently the Ontario Onion Growers' Co-operative Co., Ltd., was
appointed the central selling organization and took over the grading,
packing, storing and marketing of the 1939 crop.
A further feature of the plan was an agreement arrived at between
the Erie-St. Clair Onion Growers' Marketing Board and its selling agency
and the Dominion Government, under the authority of the Agricultural
Products Co-operative Marketing Act, whereby the latter guaranteed any
loss that might be sustained if the selling agency had to dispose of onions
below a scale of agreed on average prices. These permitted initial advances
to be paid to the growers as soon as the onions were stored in approved
warehouses with a final payment due, depending on the season's business,-
after the selling agency had disposed of the whole crop, usually in April
or May of the following year.
CONCLUSION
At the close of the fiscal year the Farm Products Control Board was
also engaged in conducting polls relative to the continued operations of
the Pear, Plum and Cherry Growers' Marketing Scheme and the Erie-St.
Clair Onion Growers' Marketing Scheme. Both these marketing plans
included agreements for a further vote of the producers concerned before
they would operate in connection with the 1940 crops.
CREDIT UNIONS
Many people in Ontario are vague as to the meaning of credit unions,
yet there have been credit unions operating in Ontario for several years.
A credit union is a co-operative savings and loan organization. It may be
defined as a group of people organized for the purpose of pooling their
savings as shares or deposits so that from the funds thus accumulated
loans may be made to members for provident or productive purposes at
low rates of interest.
More specifically, a credit union is a co-operative organization with
three main purposes : first, to promote thrift amongst members by provid-
ing a system for accumulating small savings in periodic instalments;
second, to provide credit for members at low rates of interest ; and, third,
to provide a method whereby through self-help members can be educated
and encouraged to solve their financial problems generally.
82 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
In 1922, the Ontario Legislature enacted the Co-operative Credit
Societies Act. The Act was finally proclaimed and came into force in 1928.
Since that date 24 charters have been issued incorporating credit unions.
In view of the fact this original legislation contained no provision for
supervision or control over credit unions it was more or less inevitable
that abuses should creep in. Lacking powers of investigation, the Province
finally ceased granting new charters some four years ago.
At least 15 of the originally incorporated organizations have progres-
sive memberships and for the most part have been following standard
credit union practice. These are :

The nine remaining incorporated credit unions in most cases have not
operated since obtaining their charters and in all probability will be
dissolved.
The chief development in the Ontario credit union movement during
the year under review was the approval of "The Credit Unions Act, 1940."
The same bill rescinded both the Co-operative Credit Societies Act, 1922.
and the Credit Unions Amendment Act, 1939. The credit union legislation
of the Maritime and Western Provinces, together with that of the United
States, was studied at length and throughout the new Ontario bill the
highest standard of credit union practice was incorporated. Incidentally,
no organization may u.^e the words "credit union" henceforth without
being incorporated under the new Act.
Forms of memorandum of association, standard by-laws, and other
regulations have now been approved and applications for credit union
charters are again being received.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE
83
Section 47 of the Credit Unions Act, 1940, requires all credit unions
organized thereunder to make reports to the Department at least annually
and pursuant to this provision the Inspector of Credit Unions has caused
such annual returns to be rendered not later than March 1st in each year.
These returns, consolidated for the fiscal year just closed, reveal a steady
financial growth by the 15 incorporated credit unions in the Province on
the active list, viz.:
Credit Unions operating 15
Total Membership 8,809
Total Number of Borrowers during the year 4,309
Total Share Capital $ 390,838.41
Total Deposits $1,041,371.27

Total Amount Loaned since organization $8,293,588.72
Total Assets $1,657,909.13
*Total Guarantee Funds $ 159,228.41
* Reserve against uncollectible loans and losses. Must be invested in investments
authorized by The Trustee Act (Ontario).
The fact that credit union charters have not been available during the
past few years has not prevented a now increasing number of organiza-
tions throughout Ontario going ahead without incorporation and calling
themselves "credit unions." The total sums of money which have been
received on shares and on deposit and loaned out by such groups is sub-
stantial. While complete figures of these societies have yet to be obtained

All of the above unincorporated "credit
Department has been in touch are awaiting the opportunity to take out
charters as soon as these are again available. It is interesting to note
that from this group has recently come the leadership for the next step
forward in achieving the "co-operative ideal of higher federation for the
interchange of experience and the promotion and protection of the move-
ment." Credit Union Chapters, comprised of the credit unions operating
84 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
in the Cities of Windsor, Hamilton, Toronto and adjoining districts, are
being organized and considerable development work has already been
undertaken toward the organization of a Credit Union League in Ontario,
comprised of all the chapter organizations and individual credit unions
operating in areas where chapter affiliation is impossible. Such Provincial
Credit Union Leagues have already been set up in the Provinces of British
Columbia, Saskatchewan, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Centraliza-
tion in Quebec, the home Province of Canadian credit unions, is even more
advanced, w^here a Provincial federation conducts not only a promotional
and educational programme but which also exercises wide powers of
inspection and supervision.
In the five months the Department has been associated with credit
union operation and development it seems apparent from the interest
shown that economic circumstances and conditions are combining to bring
about a substantial expansion of the movement in the Province.
HEARST DEMONSTRATION FARM
The growing season was excellent, with all grain maturing. Seeding
commenced May 30th and haying operations started July 15th. Some 80
tons of Alfalfa and Red Clover mixture were harvested.
Field Husbandry
Cartier Oats, the only variety sown, took 92 days to mature. The
average yield was 26 bushels per acre, due to hail storm that threshed half
the crop. O.A.C. No. 21 Barley took 91 days to mature, the yield being
41 bushels per acre.
Animal Hushayidry
The herd of Ayrshire cattle is composed of 12 cows, eight two-year-
old heifers and four one-year-old heifers. Some of the grades are being
discarded and four were replaced by registered cows. The farm now has
16 registered and 8 grades. The herd is headed by Solway Hyacinth,
imported in-dam from Scotland, and will be replaced by Kapuskasing
Supreme.
One team of horses is kept on the farm.
Four sows were kept and pigs sold to farmers for breeding purposes.
Five boars were also distributed in this district.
A small flock of 120 Barred Rocks were kept and 250 pullets, when
six weeks old, were sold to farmers at cost price.
One carload of cows and one carload of brood sows were brought
to the farm, sold and distributed. This is an effective way to increase
good live stock in the district.
The Agricultural Representative is in charge of the farm and has his
office there. Many farmers were visitors during the year.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 85
MILK CONTROL BOARD OF ONTARIO
The Milk Control Board, which operates as a Branch of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture, has completed its sixth year of operations.
As in former years, the purposes of the Milk Control Act have been
carried out in that the business of milk distribution and milk manufacture
has been supervised in such a way that major difficulties have not arisen.
Price structures have been maintained on a level fair to all concerned and
the interests of the primary producer have been protected.
The present policy of the Board is partially given in a letter which
was addressed by the Chairman of the Board to the Ontario Milk Pro-
ducers' League and the Ontario Milk Distributors' Association during the
past year. The main parts of this letter are as follows :
"There seems to be general agreement that control is essential
to the welfare of the industry and of the public. The last five years
have been formative ones in which the industry has been adjusting
itself to control measures. Naturally, during these years the Milk
Control Board has dealt with many situations in much more detail
than would have been necessary if control had not been new. We feel
that the stage has now been reached where the industry is fully con-
versant with the Milk Control Act and its Regulations, and should be
in a position to practice more self-government.
"Our future policy, accordingly, will be one of promoting more
self-regulation by the industry. There are many matters that the
Board has dealt with which, we feel, can now be very well handled
through the Association, both producer and distributor, individually
and working together.
"We suggest, therefore, that your Provincial organizations en-
courage your members to work through their locals and the locals
through the central organizations in order to achieve the goal of more
self-regulation. It is gratifying to see the way some very important
problems have been dealt with by your respective organizations; for
example, the bottle situation by the distributors and the quota problem
by the producers with the co-operation of the distributors. Similar
methods could be used in dealing with many problems.
"We seem to have increasing demands on our time and it will be
necessary to refer more problems back to your respective organiza-
tions. We are not wishing to shirk any of our responsibilities and
assure you that we will give our utmost co-operation to bring about
a programme of orderly marketing of milk in the Province of
Ontario."
The result of the recognition of this relationship has been that the
Board is more generally looked upon as a necessary body of reference than
in the past and as a consequence the work accomplished during the year
1939 can be considered extremely satisfactory.
Because of the fact that in accordance with the provisions of the Act
the Board's report has been filed with the Legislature, it is not deemed
necessary to include a full report of the Board's activities herewith but
only to suggest that the report shows the work of the Board in regulating
the milk industry has again been well received by those interested in the
milk business of the Province,
86 REPORT QP^ MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
REPORT OF PROVINCIAL ENTOMOLOGIST
RESEARCH AND EXPERIMENTAL WORK
Stored Grain Insect Control
On a large number of farms, wheat and, to a much less extent, other
grains are infested with one or more species of granary insects. When
these are abundant they cause the grain to heat and, if nothing is done
to cool it, to mould and become spoiled. This matter has been of great
interest to the writer and much attention has been and still is being given
to its solution. Granaries have been examined to see the facts ; the results
of fumigation by the owners with commercial fumigants have been
observed; a series of controlled fumigations with different materials has
been carried out at the College ; and a circular giving instructions for the
control of the insects sent last fall to all the agricultural representatives,
to a number of leading agriculturists, and to the press.
Some of the more important matters learned during the study are :
1. The source of the infestations in the granaries is not the grain
from the field but the presence of these insects in the granary or store-
room. Holding grain over from one year to another greatly favours the
presence of insects.
2. Most of the fumigation done by the farmers was a failure, partly
because the fumigant was used too weak, partly because the bins were not
nearly airtight, and partly because they were not covered after treatment.
3. Farmers should try to destroy all or as many as possible of the
insects in the granary or barn before putting in the new grain.
4. An excellent method of freeing grain from insects is to run it
through the fanning mill at low temperatures. If the right screens are
used, almost every insect can be separated from the grain, and as the low
temperature quickly makes the insects dormant, they can be gathered up
and destroyed.
Further tests of fumigants are being made, after which a new circu-
lar on control will be written for use in a campaign for a clean-up before
harvest.
The European Earwig
This imported insect, found for the first time in Ontario in the Village
of Ayton, in Grey County, in 1938. had become so numerous by September
of that year that it was decided to test control measures in 1939 in the
whole village (population about 400) and the surrounding land for a few
rods back. The Department supplied the materials for the tests, namely :
sodium fluoride, molasses and bran, and the villagers co-operated in
spreading it over the gardens, lawns and adjoining fields and also where
necessary in the houses.
The first application was on July 3rd and a second application was
given two 'days later. The results, as finally observed by two members of
the department, were very gratifying. Shortly before treatment, one of
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 87
these men had counted 1,560 earwigs in IV2 hours. After the treatment,
in the same length of time, only 7 earwigs were found by the above two
members of the department. A dozen housewives were interviewed. These,
without exception, said that they and every person they had spoken to
were delighted with the results and that there was now scarcely an earwig
in any house, not even in the houses where they had formerly been most
numerous and had caused the most worry. We are, therefore, confident
that this insect can be combated successfully if it should spread through
the Province and become a serious menace.
Sugar Beet Nematode
Shortly before the time for harvesting sugar beets we received word
of a serious outbreak of the much-dreaded sugar beet nematode, Heterodera
t^chachtii, in a ten-acre field of sugar beets a few miles northeast of Sarnia.
Prof. L. Caesar as representative for the Province, Dr. George Stirrett
for the Federal Division of Entomology, and Dr. Brown for the Dominion
Sugar Beet Company, jointly investigated the situation and found that
the beets in this field were, as reported, heavily infested with the nematode.
An examination of this and other districts showed that the outbreak was
apparently limited to this one field. A conference was then held and it was
decided that the grower of the beets should be allowed to take them to
the factory on condition that they were first treated with formaldehyde to
kill as far as possible any nematodes present and that certain definite
precautions were then taken to prevent danger of spread in hauling the
beets to the factory and handling them there. It was agreed that no more
sugar beets should be grown on this farm until all danger from the
nematode had disappeared. This will probably mean anywhere from 5
to 10 years.
Rabbit Control
The last few years the large European hare, or so-called jack rabbit,
has spread over almost every fruit district in Ontario and may now be
considered as the greatest enemy of young orchards. We have been testing
control measures for two years. These studies so far indicate that satis-
factory control probably can best be secured by a combination of several
measures, namely : shooting, poisoning, wrapping the trees with burlap
or other fabric, repellent washes, and the placing of prunings in heaps
here and there throughout the orchard.
As for repellents, in 1938 we tested an emulsion of resin residue and
found that it was a good repellent, but in seeking a supply of this in 1939
it was discovered that the cost of the material, which has to be imported
from the Southern States, was prohibitive. Therefore, in 1939 we tested
a solution of resin in alcohol and also a resin-soap emulsion. Both of
these gave good control on young trees all through the early and middle
part of the winter, but about the middle of March suckers treated with
either of these mixtures and placed in snowdrifts had begun to be attacked.
This may indicate that in a bad season a second application may be
necessary.
Strychnine used with slices of apple or with alfalfa was found to kill
the rabbits readily but has the objection that great caution is necessary,
otherwise live stock may be poisoned. We are planning further work
with strychnine, especially along the line of finding more satisfactory
baits.
88 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Prunings cut in late fall or early winter and left on the ground in
heaps were seen to be very attractive to the rabbits and evidently thereby
saved many young trees from being attacked.
Wraps made of burlap or canvas about three inches wide and wound
tightly around the trunk and lower branches as high as found necessary
and then firmly fastened there are being much used and are very helpful.
They can be used year after year if properly dried and stored.
Spray Experiments
Again, as in previous years, the Ontario Reformatory and O.A.C.
orchards were used for spray experiments. The Botany Department will
report on the fungicidal aspect of this work. So far as the insecticidal
aspect is concerned, the most important developments this year were
demonstrations of the relative merits of stickers as a means of holding
the arsenate of lead on the trees long enough to dispense in many orchards
with the need of a second apple maggot spray. The experiments indicated
strongly that the best sticker was a 1^( white oil emulsion and the next
best bentonite, preferably with a spreader such as skim milk powder.
Ferric oxide, so far as the eye could see, was also an excellent sticker,
but a chemical analysis revealed that it did not hold the arsenate of lead
on nearly so well as either of the above. Soy bean flour, so often spoken
of as a good sticker, was of little value in our tests.
The main objection to the oil emulsion is that on some varieties it
tends to cause spotting of the fruit because of the fact that the spray
collects in large drops which remain on the fruit and keep the sun from
coloring the part beneath. Whether this will be important enough and
extensive enough to be serious remains to be seen. Oil, of course, has an
added advantage over other stickers in that it helps greatly in the control
of codling moth.
Another important result from this year's tests in the Reformatory
orchard was that, where a second cover spray with arsenate of lead was
used and applied to the underside of the leaves, bud moth injury was
lessened 20 to 50 per cent. This extra spray also had much value in the
control of the codling moth. Bud moth this year in many orchards
throughout the Province was for the first time a very serious general pest.
Turnip Aphid
About the middle of August the common cabbage aphid, often called
by growers the mealy bug. had become so abundant on turnips in Middle-
sex, Brant, Waterloo, Wellington, and a few other counties that it
threatened to destroy the crop. Prof. Caesar, on learning of the outbreak,
at once went to Middlesex and conducted a series of experiments with
sprays and dusts to determine the best method of control.
Good results were obtained with a 4'- nicotine dust and also with a
solution of 1 lb. of soap in 5 gallons of water. It was necessary, however,
in all cases to hit the insects in order to insure a kill. To hit them with a
spray, it had to be driven up from beneath and also had to cover the
crown or tip of the plant, as this latter part was regularly heavily infested.
To do this a spray rod about 3 feet long with one or two angle disc nozzles
on the end had to be used. In the case of dusts, it was found that hand
dusters were too slow for any large acreage, but that a power duster with
a canvas trailer to concentrate the dust on the plants would work well.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 89
Unfortunately, very few farmers were equipped either with a sprayer
or with a good duster. In future outbreaks it may be necessary for the
farmers to chib together and buy or rent a power duster in order to get
rapid and satisfactory control. Orchard sprayers can be used by equip-
ping them with nozzles arranged to shoot from both sides as well as down
from the top.
Onion Maggot
This year again, lubricating oil emulsion, calomel and corrosive
sublimate were tested as controls for the onion maggot. During the
preceding two years calomel had given the best results and was found to
be much the simplest method, but this year at Collingwood in a heavy
infestation the lubricating oil emulsion proved to be more effective than
calomel. Corrosive sublimate gave very poor results and showed no
superiority over the untreated checks. It will, therefore, be discarded as
a control for the onion maggot, though still giving good results in the
control of the cabbage maggot.
The price of calomel has gone up so much as a result of the war that
it has been decided to postpone further experiments with it until the price
returns to normal.
Testing Corn for Resistance to the Corn Borer
This work, in co-operation with the Field Husbandry Department, has
been under way now for two seasons. Forty-nine hybrids or varieties
were tested in 1938 and fifty-seven in 1939. Most of the hybrids, when
compared with our popular varieties, showed a considerable degree of
resistance and had also the very desirable merit of standing up much
better under attack of borers or of storms. This makes it much easier
for farmers to cut the corn low enough to make burial with the plough
easy. The work will have to be continued, however, for several years yet
before definite recommendations can be made to the growers.
EXTENSION
Spray Service Supervision
This work was carried on in conjunction with the Department of
Botany. There is little new to report except that there was an increase
in the number of local spray supervisors and that all the men were given
a two-day training course at Guelph before beginning their duties. The
course covered lectures and discussions not only on insects and diseases
but also on orchard fertilizers, pruning, bridge-grafting, and methods of
spraying, the last three being taught in the College orchard. The local
supervisors reported later that the course had helped them greatly in their
efforts to be of service to the growers.
Inspection Tours and Personal Calls
Prof. Caesar has tried every year to visit all the fruit districts and
also as many other districts as he can in order to have a personal knowl-
edge of the insect conditions all over the Province and thereby be able to
render better service to the public. He has also endeavoured to answer
in person special calls for consultation and advice as one of the most
effective methods of rendering aid.
90 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Miscellaneotis
Addresses were given as usual at most of the fruit conventions and
also at some other agricultural meetings.
Press letters were prepared on insects of special importance and sent
out to the press and to the agricultural representatives.
The spray calendar was revised in company with the other members
of the committee for this purpose.
Correspondence was a very important duty and required much time
and thought.
ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES
The chief administrative duties were the supervision and enforcement
of the regulations under the Plant Diseases Act pertaining to nurseries,
peach yellows and little peach, Oriental peach moth, apple maggot,
European corn borer and black knot.
Nurseries
All nurseries so far as known have now been registered and inspected
as far as was found necessary. The total number of the nurseries was
103. This work could not have been completed had it not been for the
addition of an extra nursery inspector during this last season. The
nurseries on the whole are almost free from any serious insect pest or
plant disease.
Peach Yelloivs and Little Peach
There was a large reduction in the number of trees which had to be
destroyed for these two diseases, there being only about one-third as many
infested trees in 1939 as in 1938. This is partly the cumulative result of
good inspection and partly the result of the scarcity of the plum leaf
hopper which is the main agent in the spread of these diseases.
Oriental Peach Moth
So well is this pest being held in control at present by parasites and
other natural control factors that the only regulation felt necessary to
enforce in connection with it was the sterilization of containers used for
peacTi fruit by the canneries and the treatment of peach refuse to destroy
any larvae or pupae present. Both of these were looked after.
Apple Maggot
Although the regulations dealing with this insect were on the average
well enforced and some progress made, the progress has not been as great
the last two years as we had hoped for. The explanation seems to be that
we are passing through a cycle of seasons which are so favourable to the
insect that it is almost impossible to bring about a rapid reduction without
destroying all neglected orchards for a mile or more on all sides of every
commercial orchard. We do not wish, however, to imply that most of our
commercial orchards are infested by the apple maggot, for they are not;
and the great majority of those infested have only a very light infestation,
in many cases only a few apples on two or three trees, sometimes only
on one tree.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 91
European Com Borer
The enforcement of clean-up was just about the same as in 1938.
Most j2:rowers did their work well without any compulsion; a relatively
small number tried to evade the task and hampered the work. However,
prosecutions were seldom necessary.
At the end of the season it was found that in most of the counties
formerly worst infested, such as Essex, Kent. Lambton, Middlesex and
Elgin, there had been a considerable decrease of the insect, but that in
the area all along north of these right through to Peterborough and also
from Kingston to Ottawa and Montreal, there had been a large increase
in the percentage of stalks infested. In fact, many of the counties in
these areas were more heavily infested than the counties in Southwestern
Ontario. In seeking for the cause of this state of affairs we found i:hat
the increase, like most of the increases wherever they occurred, coincided
closely with the presence of a good supply of moisture during the critical
months of June and July when the moths are emerging, the eggs being
laid, and the young borers hatching out and trying to work their way into
the stalks or other thick parts of the plant where they would be safe from
the sun's rays and from drying winds and enemies. The presence of
moisture is very favourable to the insects in the above stages and is
sufficient in itself to account for increases. We must remember, however,
that the increases this year nearly all occurred in areas where there was
no compulsory clean-up of corn remnants — that is, in counties where
the Act was not in force.
Black Knot
Inspection for this disease was limited largely to the localities where
the inspectors, during their other duties, had observed its presence in
1938, or to localities from which complaints had come in with regard to
this disease. The great majority of plum and cherry orchards are quite
free from it. Cities and towns are usuallv the worst infested.
DAIRY BRANCH
In the year 1939 all creameries, cheese factories, and combined cheese
factories and creameries applied for a license to operate as required by
Section 2, sub-section 1 of the regulations pursuant to the provisions of
the Dairy Products Act of 1938. It was the first year a license to operate
as issued by the Dairy Branch was required.
Many operators had considerable improvements to make in their
plants and equipment before they were issued a license and they were
given an extension of time to enable them to complete these improvements.
The licensing resulted in a noticeable improvement in the equipment and
sanitary condition of many of the plants and has raised the standard of
Ontario creameries and cheese factories.
Licenses were issued to 297 creameries, 645 cheese factories and 40
combined cheese factories and creameries.
All creameries and cheese factories were re-inspected for their 1940
licenses during the latter part of 1939. A much larger percentage of the
plants were approved for license on the first inspection without having to
make any improvements, than was the case in the previous year.
92 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21

Cheese Factory Instruction —
A great deal of time was devoted by the instructors to checking the
development of rancid flavours in cheese. This flavour defect was the
most prominent defect in Ontario cheese in 1939. In many cases it was
traced to the milk supply on the farm. Frequent visits to the producers
of poor quality milk on the part of the instructor, checked the development
of rancid flavours in many instances.
In 1939 the methylene blue test was used extensively to determine
quality of milk as it arrived at the factory and was instrumental in de-
termining the source of poor quality milk.
Methylene Blue Score Cards were introduced in 1939. These cards
were sent to the producers by the instructors and indicated the quality
of milk produced. These cards also gave instructions for improvement
of the milk supply.
The fermentation test and sediment test were also used extensively
by the instructors to determine quality of milk.
In 1939 instructors made 19,922 methylene blue tests; 8,312 fermen-
tation tests and 6,417 sediment tests. They visited 3,264 milk producers
where poor quality milk was being produced and were successful in assist-
ing the producer to produce better milk. This work had a direct result
on the quality of the cheese as an immediate improvement was noticed at
factories where producers were visited by the instructor. Many factories
manufacturing a large percentage of second grade cheese were able to
manufacture first grade cheese entirely.
The instructors tested approximately fifty per cent of the milk
samples at the cheese factories and made 12,388 visits to assist cheese-
makers in the manufacture of high quality cheese and eliminate mechan-
ical defects caused by improper methods of manufacture.
94 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
Creamery Instruction —
The creamery instruction and extension programme adopted and put
into practice by the creamery instructors for 1939 was as follows:
1. To endeavour as far as possible to have the certificates in every
creamery held by the proper persons and to impress upon each and every
certificate holder their duties and responsibilities as such.
2. The application of more uniform methods of scoring the certificate
holders on cream grading and cream testing.
3. The elimination of mechanical defects in butter.
4. Extension of service to the producers in regard to the improve-
ment of the quality of the cream.
5. Continued assistance with the work of buttermakers' clubs.
The quality of cream received at the creameries as reported by the
instructors was poorer for the first half of the year than for the same
period in 1938. After two months of closer checking of the grading at
the creameries by the creamery instructors, the creameries themselves
began to grade cream more closely to the correct standards. This resulted
in an improvement in the quality of cream received at the creameries in
the higher grades, they had to take more care of their cream. The last
six months of 1939 showed a decrease of approximately 3 per cent in the
amount of second grade cream as compared with the same period in 1938.
Similarly the quantity of special grade cream improved about 1 per cent
for the same period compared with the previous year. The instructors
reported 4.1 per cent of the cream received at the creameries to be special
grade and 10.3 per cent to be second grade for the year. This is an
increase of 0.9 per cent in the amount of special and first grade cream
produced compared with 1938.
It is estimated that cream producers lost over 8100,000 in premiums
in 1939 for producing second grade cream.
In co-operation with the Dairy Products Division, Marketing Service
of the Federal Department of Agriculture, a record of all undergrade
churnings of butter graded by the dairy produce graders were reported
to the Dairy Branch together with the defects of each churning. Each
instructor was immediately notified of the defects in the butter made at
creameries in his group.
As considerable butter was being placed in undergrade because of
faulty workmanship, efforts were concentrated on this problem. These
mechanical defects were tabulated in an effort to find which were the
most serious and to ascertain the causes. In order that our efforts to
eliminate these defects would be more effective, they were to have a bear-
ing on the standing of the certificate holders should any of them fail to
rectify their trouble after being given instruction as to how it could be
done. Free moisture was the mOvSt serious mechanical defect, comprising
51.67 per cent of the total. Uneven colour was responsible for 21.3 per
cent of the total defects, followed by poor packing and finish of 12.0 per
cent, faulty texture 9.9 per cent, undissolved salt 4.3 per cent, and
neutralizer flavour 0.9 per cent.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 95
Ten certificate holders who had most of their butter graded did not
have a single mechanical defect recorded against them. Eight had only
one defect, ten had two, and seven had three defects. While the above
includes only about 11 per cent of the total creameries, it nevertheless
is a creditable showing and indicates that it is possible to keep these
defects to a minimum.
As the instruction programme adopted for 1939 entailed considerable
work within the creameries themselves, the producers did not receive the
individual attention as was planned. However, where necessary cream
producers were visited, but these for the most part were those who com-
plained about their grades, weights or tests. General producer instruction
was conducted as in the past several years by giving special lectures on
this subject at the agricultural short courses conducted by the Agricul-
tural Representatives' Branch, and the Dairy Branch in co-operation with
the Ontario Cream Patrons' Association, assisted in the dispensing of
information of this nature at fall fairs.
Some 33 agricultural short courses were attended at which the
aggregrate attendance was close to 1,400. Cream quality competitions
were sponsored by some 35 fall fairs at which the creamery instructors
acted as judges. Junior farmers' cream grading and judging competitions
were also conducted at several fairs including two seed fairs.
One new buttermakers' club was organized in 1939 in the North Bay
district. One which had been dormant for a few years reorganized in
the spring. There are now seventeen buttermakers' clubs in operation in
Ontario.
ONTARIO DEMONSTRATION FARM, NEW LISKEARD
The season of 1939 was unfavourable for crop production, partic-
ularly on low, flat or poorly drained farms and this was true of the
Demonstration Farm. Many rolling farms had better than average crops.
The spring was wet, backward and excessive moisture delayed most of
the seeding on the New Liskeard farm until well into June and con-
sequently a large percentage of the harvesting was done in September
when the weather was dull and damp.

96 REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
FIELD HUSBANDRY
No small plot work was carried out this year as it was felt that plots
of one acre or more were better for demonstration purposes and more in
common with the farmers' conditions.
The following table gives the acreage yield and time of maturity of
most of the crops grown on the farm :
GRAIN

Alaska Oats 6
Cartier Oats 8
Erban Oats 13
Mixed Grain (Oats and Barley) 15

Spring Wheat 8
Potatoes % 68 bags
CANNING FACTORY PEAS
Ac7'eage
Alaska 8
Wisconsin Sweets 8

Thomas Laxton 8
The price paid by the factory for shelled peas was $38 per ton. Half
of each variety was fertilized with 2-12-10 at the rate of 250 lbs. per
acre, but there was practically no increase in yield on the fertilized
portion,
HAY
Hay was a good crop and of good quality, as it was practically all
cured without getting wet. Increased tonnage from alfalfa or an alfalfa
mixture as compared to timothy was clearly demonstrated,
SILAGE
Three crops were used for silage. Pea straw from the canning fac-
tory, sweet clover and second crop mixed hay which was 90' < alfalfa.
The ensilage kept well and gave satisfactory feeding results. The
sweet clover froze considerably around the outside of the silo. The pea
straw will be more satisfactory than the other two crops for feeding
in late spring and early summer when the weather is warm. Often only
small quantities are used, as it heats once and then cools off. Conse-
quently it keeps fresher and sweeter in warm weather.
The alfalfa ensilage had 50 lbs, of molasses added per ton of green
fodder and was more palatable than the other two crops. This was par-
ticularly noticeable when fed to calves,
LIVE STOCK
The live stock division consists chiefly of supplying foundation stock
and assisting in arranging for the purchase of breeding stock from other
districts.
REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE 97
The Annual Auction Sale of surplus live stock was held on August
16th. The interest and attendance at the sale has been increasing each
year and it appears to be an efficient means of distributing live stock
throughout the north. Some live stock was shipped over three hundred
miles. The prices exceeded those obtained by private sales.
SWINE
One brood sow was purchased from the Ridgetown Experimental
Farm, raising the number of sows to six. We have had low mortality and
no young pig troubles. The sows were fed Potassium Iodide and the
young pigs reduced iron or Ferric Sulphide.
SALES FOR THE YEAR 1940-41
Boars sold for breeding purposes 24
Sows sold for breeding purposes 29
Sold for meat 20
CATTLE
The Dual Purpose Shorthorn cow is steadily gaining in popularity
among the settlers and farmers of the Northern District not supplying a
fluid milk market. There has been an increased demand for breeding
stock. All desirable females were kept to increase the breeding herd and
no females were sold except those culled out and sold for beef. Eight
bull calves were sold during the year and no market cattle were fed.
All our cows are entered for R.O.P., except those reserved to raise
our bull calves as only the heifer calves are pail fed.
HORSES
Three purebred Percheron stallion foals were raised and one mare
is in foal again. The mares were all inoculated for joint ill and the foals
were all born healthy and strong. This was a point of special interest
to many of the farmers as joint ill is very prevalent in some localities. The
mares were fed Potassium Iodide during the winter.
SHEEP
A flock of fourteen Oxford Down ewes were purchased for the Dem-
onstration Farm late in October.
POULTRY
The work in the poultry division has chiefly been the production of
foundation stock for local farmers and also supplying advice on poultry
management and disease problems.
There has been an increased demand this year for breeding stock,
both male and female and also hatching eggs. The White Leghorn flock
was disposed of and only the New Hampshire Red and Barred Plymouth
Rocks were kept.
HORTICULTURE
The farmers have been encouraged to plant trees and shrubs around
their farm buildings. A number of raspberry canes were distributed.
A bed of strawberries was planted and also a number of trees were
planted last year on the Demonstration Farm. It is expected that tree
planting will be extended in future years.
9R REPORT OF MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE No. 21
EXTENSION
Thirty meetings and eight fairs were attended during the year.
Fifteen organizations or groups visited the Demonstration Farm.
SOIL WORK
A constant check has been kept of the soil analysis on the Dem-
onstration Farm and many farmers have been assisted in obtaining in-
formation regarding their soil by sending soil samples to the Ontario
Agricultural College. A full report on these samples has not been issued.
However, tests taken so far indicate a definite deficiency in phosphorous
in the majority of the samples, even on virgin soil and many samples
showed definite acidity.
Four fertilizer plots were laid out in different sections of the District,
but the seeding and harvesting conditions were so adverse that the results
obtained were of no valve.
DEMONSTRATIONS
Pasture. White blossom sweet clover was used again this year as a
means of bridging the pasture crop from the time the common pasture
grasses begin to dry up, until the second crop clovers are available. This
has proven successful and fall wheat has been a satisfactory crop to follow
the sweet clover.
Curing of Hay. The tripod method of curing hay was used on the
Demonstration Farm and created considerable interest. This method is
practical in Northern Ontario as there is usually too much moisture in
late June and early July to make hay the regular way. Many farmers
are planning on putting some hay on tripods this year.
Hog Pastures and Self Feeders. The pasturing of hogs on clover and
grain, supplemented by grain feeding in self feeders plus buttermilk, has
been of considerable interest to many farmers. The hogs were fenced
with a single wire electric fence.
An old poultry brooder house was again used for wintering breeding
sows and has proven satisfactory. The sows are allowed to run at will
and feed out of a self-feeding grain hopper. They wintered in good con-
dition and farrowed litters ranging from 10-12 healthy pigs.
Reinforcing of Manure. Stable phos was used in most of the stables,
and as a result the floors were much dryer and there were fewer offensive
odours.
SUMMARY
Many of the farmers of Northern Ontario are taking more interest
in the management of their farms and live stock.
More mail enquiries were received this year seeking advice on care
and management of live stock and general farm problems. A larger num-
ber of farmers visited the Demonstration Farm and were particularly
interested in improved varieties of grain, fertilizer experiments, and the
care of live stock.
In feeding demonstrations farm officials endeavoured to emphasize
the value of feeds that farmers can produce themselves, such as green
feed, milk or milk products, thereby eliminating the purchase of large
quantities of expensive concentrates. This has been especially true in
poultry and swine feeding demonstrations.

PART I — AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS
The gross value of agricultural production in Ontario during the year 1940
is estimated at 8363,584,000. This is a decrease of practically $8,500,000 from
the value of farm output in 1939, which amounted to 8372,087,000, but is higher
than any other year since 1930, when the value amounted to $416,162,000.
Compared with the previous year, field crops in 1940 showed a decline of
$15,425,000, tobacco a reduction of 89,144,000, and clover and grass seed a
decline of more than 50'>r, dropping from 81,381,000 to 8642,000. On the other
hand, dairy production rose from 887,654,000 in 1939, to 898,933,000 in 1940,
farm animals from $61,196,000 to $63,681,000, and poultry and eggs from
$22,875,000 to $24,438,000.
For the whole of Canada the gross value of agricultural production in 1940
is estimated at $1,235,714,000, a slight gain over the year 1939, when production
was valued at $1,224,616,000.

Net profit for the year stood at $1,154,719.78, being an increase over previous

6 THE REPORT OF THE TEMISKAMING AND No. 23
FINANCIAL
During the year under review, the current Bank loan was reduced from
$3,825,000 to S3,300,000, a reduction of S52o,000. Debentures due February
1st, 1940, to the value of $111,000 were paid off, making total debt reduction
for the year of $636,000.00. New equipment and other betterments of facilities
were financed from current income.
TRAFFIC
The most notable feature in traffic was the increase in the movement of
freight commencing about September 1st, 1939, and being coincident with the
outbreak of War. For several months before the \\ ar began freight had been
moving in larger volume than in 1938, but during the months of September,
October and November 1939, the increase, measured by Net Revenue Tons,
moved one mile, was about 40% over the same months in 1938. The greatest
increases in car loadings were in lumber, pulpwood, pulp and paper, and ore,
while at the same time there was a very heavy movement of general merchandise
to the mining Communities.
While the volume of freight being moved stood at record figures, passenger
traffic continued to decline throughout the year. As noted in previous years,
this condition of declining passenger trafific may be expected to continue, and the
only thing that can be done about it is to reduce the passenger train mileage as
far as may fairly be done without depriving the people of reasonable passenger
service.
At the time of writing, the prospects for heavy traffic in 1940 are good.
GENERAL
The road bed and all rolling stock have been kept in first class condition, and
the railway is prepared to meet any demands which may arise as result of War
conditions.
Economic conditions throughout the north are good. New buildings are
not being erected to the same extent as in former years, and in some sections,
retail trade appears to be quiet. There is a very heavy demand for all forest
products. While some mines have curtailed their activities to some extent,
others are producing in greater volume, with the net result that mining activity
remains at a high level. There is every reason to believe that the market for the
products of the north will continue to be good, and that the Railway will continue
to be called upon to move these products to a greater extent than e\er before.
Throughout the year, investigations have been continued to learn the value
of the lignite deposits at Onakawana, in co-operation with other Departments of
the (Government. A great amount of valuable information has been developed,
and investigations are being continued.
N I PISSING CENTRAL RAILWAY COMPANY

the Nipissing C\MUral Railway is submitted. These statements are self ex-
planatorv, and it will be observed that this Company had a small Net loss of
$8,973.84 for the vear.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

THIRTY- FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
Ontario Municipal Board
To December 31st, 1940
PRESENTED TO THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY
BY COMMAND
(7)
THIRTY- FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT
of the
Ontario Municipal Board
To December 31st, 1940
In pursuance of Section 108 of "The Ontario Municipal Board Act" (R.S.O., 1937,
Chapter 60), the Ontario Municipal Board beg leave respectfully to submit their
Thirty-fifth Annual Report.
'THE ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD ACT"
Since the revision of the Statutes of Ontario in 1937, "The Ontario Municipal
Board Act" was amended by Statutes of Ontario, 1938, Chapter 37, Section 18; 1939,
Chapter 47, Section 26; and 1940, Chapter 20.
APPLICATIONS TO THE BOARD
There were 1173 applications to the Board during 1940 (exclusive of Public
Vehicle and public Commercial Vehicle License applications), and in regard to 153
of these Public Hearings were held. The applications included a great variety of
matters falling within the jurisdiction of the Board and those granted are set out in
a list contained in the "Abstract and Summary" appended to this Report, indexed
under "Orders issued by the Board." Copies of formal Decisions issued are also con-
tained in the Abstract and Summary, indexed under "Decisions of the Board" and
also under the names of the Parties.
SITTINGS OF THE BOARD
The Board held meetings for the transaction of routine business and the dis-
posal of applications every juridical day throughout the year. Many of these apppli-
cations, though dealt with informally and disposed of without the necessity of Hear-
ings, entailed in many instances a considerable amount of inquiry and consideration
on the part of the Board, especially those coming under the provisions of Section
70 of the Board's Act, which section requires all capital undertakings and expendi-
tures therefor by Municipalities to be approved by the Board.
REVENUE
Ontario Statutes, 1939, Chapter 47, Section 26 (3), Section 107 of "The On-
tario Municipal Board Act," being the section respecting the Board's fees, was re-
pealed and re-enacted. The new section came into effect on the 27th day of April;
1939, and the fees are now payable in cash ON THE APPLICATION instead of in
Law Stamps on the Board's Order.
During 1940 the Board's fees on applications amounted to $16,169.71. In this
amount is included fees on applications for Public Vehicle and Public Commercial
Vehicle Licenses — $3,430.76 collected by the Department of Highways and credited
to the Board.

lO THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
APPROVAL OF UNDERTAKING OF CAPITAL EXPENDITURES BY
MUNICIPALITIES
(Section 70 of "The Ontario Municipal Board Act", R.S.O. 1937, C. 60)
On the 18th April, 1935, legislation came into effect whereby a Municipality is
prohibited from exercising any of its powers to proceed with, authorize or provide
any moneys for any undertaking, work, project, scheme, act, matter or thing, the
cost or any portion of the cost of which it is intended or required to be provided or
raised by the issue of debentures of the Municipality, until the approval of this
Board is first obtained. This enactment over-rides the provisions of any general or
Special Act and necessitates a great many applications to the Board. A list of these
applications granted will be found in the Summary, included in the list indexed
under "Orders issued by the Board." Written decisions will be found indexed under
"Capital Expenditures" and also under the names of the Applicants.
Six hundred and sixty-eight applications in respect to proposed expenditures,
totalling $15,882,908.02 were considered by the Board and approval was refused in
respect to approximately $600,000.00 of this amount. It should be noted, howevei;
that since Municipal representatives are now aware of the fact that they must obtain
the Board's approval of proposed capital undertakings, a large percentage avail
themselves of the opportunity of discussing their proposed borrowings with the
Board and in many instances are advised that the Board would not be willing to
grant approval. Accordingly formal applications in these instances are not filed and
do not show in the Board's records.
It should also be noted that the existence of this legislation gives the Board an
opportunity to advise and control with regard to the type and term of the deben-
tures to be issued. In this connection the Board has pursued the policy of approv-
ing only instalment debentures as opposed to sinking fund debentures and is gen-
erally requiring the term of repayment to be shorter than formerly, believing that
the saving of interest effected thereby accrues to the benefit of the municipal rate-
payers.
A recital in the debenture by-law of the Board's approval under said Section
70 is now obligatory, pursuant to an amendment passed at the 1939 Session of the
Legislature (Chapter 30, Section 17), adding paragraph (e) to subsection (1) of Sec-
tion 305 of "The Municipal Act".
The following list, (generally speaking), shows the maximum debenture term
allowed by the Board under this restrictive policy: —
Sidewalks 10 years
Curbs and gutters 10 years
Pavements 10 years
Watermains 15 years
Sanitary Sewers 15 years
Trunk Sewers 20 years
Buildings, including School 20 years
APPROVAL OF RATEPAYERS
By Section 59 (f) of "The Ontario Municipal Board Act" the Board is given
power to direct that before any approval is given to the exercise of any powers
by a Municipality or to any By-law passed by it, the assent of the electors thereof
or of those qualified to vote on money by-laws shall first be obtained, notwithstand-
ing such assent is not otherwise requisite. By virtue of this legislation the Board
is continuing its policy, adopted in 1938, of insisting that major capital expenditures
the cost of which would be met out of general rates, be submitted to the ratepayers
for their approval before being presented to the Board, and further the Board is of
the opinion that a representative vote can be taken only at the same time as the
municipal election. The result of this policy in many instances has been the re-
jection of the proposed expenditure by the ratepayers.
ARBITRATIONS
In 1940 the Board acted as Arbitrators in connection with 6 applications, 3 of
which were made pursuant to section 79 of "The Highway Improvement Act" for
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 11
the fixing of compensation to be paid to the Claimants for property expropriated in
connection with construction of the King's Highways, where the amount could not
be arranged between the Parties. Of the other applications one was made pursuant
to "The Power Commission Act," one pursuant to Section 59 of "The Ontario Muni-
cipal Board Act" (as enacted by Section 1, Chapter 20, O.S. 1940) and one pur-
suant to "The Grand River Conservation Act, 1938."
RESTRICTED AREAS
Under Section 406 of "The Municipal Act" (R.S.O. 1937, C. 266) the Board
considered 27 applications for approval of Municipal By-laws placing restrictions
on certain areas as to use of land and the erection and use of buildings thereon;
also, under subsection (2b) 49 applications for variation of restricted areas already
established. The applications granted are shown in the Summary in the list of
"Orders issued by the Board".
REFUNDING PLANS OF SUPERVISED MUNICIPALITIES
Pursuant to the provisions of section 32 of "The Department of Municipal Affairs
Act" (R.S.O., 1937, C. 59), the Board during 1940 considered and approved plans for
funding and refunding the bonded indebtedness of the following Supervised Muni-
cipalities: Township of Sandwich East, Township of Sandwich West and Town of
La Salle.
EXTENSION OF PUBLIC UTILITIES
(Section 407 (2) of "The Municipal Act")
During 1940 the Board approved of extensions to Public Utilities in an amount
totalling $640,865.46, covering 21 applications. These are shown in the Summary
in the list of "Orders issued by the Board".
FLOATING INDEBTEDNESS
(Section 59 (d) of Part IV, R.S.O., 1937, C. 60, as re-enacted by O.S., 1939, C. 47,
S. 26 (1).
Under this legislation the Board issued Orders in respect to 12 Municipalities
authorizing debenture issues totalling $695,878.91. It should be noted that this meant
a considerable saving of expense to the Municipalities concerned, as special Acts
of the Legislature would otherwise have been necessary.
(Section 59 (dd) of Part IV, R.S.O., 1937, C. 60, enacted by O.S. 1939, C. 47, S. 26 (1)
11 Municipalities took advantage of this legislation, which came into effect on
April 27th, 1939, and applied to the Board for authority without assent of the elect-
ors to retire certain of their debentures redeemable before maturity. The total
amount authorized by the Board was $1,505,212.77.
DIRECT RELIEF FUNDING
The policy of the Board to curtail, as far as possible, the funding of direct relief
costs by Municipalities has resulted in only 1 application being filed with the Board
during 1940 in respect to a portion of their expenditure in this regard, which appli-
cation was granted. This represents an improvement over the three preceding
years when, in 1937, 10 municipalities applied for and received approval to the
funding of a portion of their direct relief costs, in 1938, 5 applications were filed of
which only 3 were granted and in 1939 the 3 applications filed were approved.
The Board's hopes for the gradual termination of the practice by Municipalities
of funding this type of expenditure are therefore justified.
12 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
ASSESSMENT APPEALS
There were 17 Assessment Appeals to the Board during 1940, pursuant to sec-
tion 84 of "The Assessment Act" (R.S.O. 1937, C. 272), involving property assessed
at $2,564,193.09. Of this number 4 appeals were withdrawn, formal hearings were
held in regard to 12 and 1 was held over for hearing in 1941. The total amount
involved in the appeals heard by the Board was $1,828,304.62.
Copies of the Board's written decisions will be found in the Summary, indexed
under "Assessment Appeals", "Decisions of the Board" and also under the names
of the Parties.
"THE MUNICIPAL FRANCHISES ACT"
(R.S.O. 1937, C. 277)
Under section 6 (c) of this Act the Board granted approval of a Municipal By-
law granting to the London Street Railway Company a transportation franchise for
one year for operation of a bus service within the limits of the City of London.
Pursuant to section 8, the Board heard two applications by Gas Companies for
Certificates of PuIdUc Convenience and Necessity to construct works to supply and
to supply gas to residents of certain Municipalities. Copies of these Certificates
will be found in the Summary, indexed under "Certificates of Public Convenience
and Necessity", "Decisions of the Board" and under the names of the Applicant
Companies and the Municipalities concerned.
VALIDATION OF MUNICIPAL BY-LAWS AND DEBENTURES
(Section 64 of Part IV R.S.O. 1937, C. 60)
98 applications were made to the Board in 1940 for validation of Municipal By-
laws and certification of the debentures authorized thereunder. The total of such
debenture issues was $4,216,453.02.
While purchasers of debentures are frequently satisfied with Orders of the Board
under section 70 of the Board's Act, it has been found, particularly in regard to the
larger issues, that a further Order of the Board validating the By-law and providing
for certification of the debentures, facilitates the marketing of the issue.
PLANS OF LAND SUBDIVISIONS
Under "The Planning and Development Act" (R.S.O., 1937, C. 270, section 5 and
6), "The Land Titles Act" (R.S.O., 1937, c. 174, section 112) and "The Registry Act"
(R.S.O., 1937, C. 170, Section 83 (15) ), 40 plans were presented to the Board for
approval and certification.
PROVINCIAL RAILWAYS
Extensions of and improvements to Provincial Railways during 1940, as report-
ed to the Board will be found in the Summary, arranged alphabetically under the
names of the several Systems reporting.
Annual Reports, to December 31st, 1940, by Railway Companies under the
Board's jurisdiction were received, of which a summarized tabulation has been pre-
pared for publication herein. The Board has no means of auditing these reports as
received and cannot therefore guarantee that the figures taken therefrom are cor-
rect or accurate.
Under "The Railway Act" there were 13 applications to the Board in 1940.
Applications were received regarding the operation of buses in connection with
the street railway systems of the Cities of Fort William, Kitchener and London.
A tabulation of Accident Reports received by the Board from Provincial Rail-
ways during the year 1940 is included in the Summary and shows that 20 persons
were killed and 1,558 injured during the year.
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 13
PUBLIC VEHICLE AND COMMERCIAL LICENSES
Pursuant to "The Public Vehicle Act" (R.S.O. 1937, C. 289), and "The Commer-
cial Vehicle Act" (R.S.O. 1937, C. 290), no Public Vehicle or Commercial Vehicle
license, respectively, may be issued by the Department of Highways without the
approval of the Board being first obtained as evidenced by a Certificate of Public
Necessity and Convenience of the said Board furnished to that Department, and then
only in accordance with such Certificate. Upon the granting of a Certificate by
the Board the Department may then, in its discretion, issue or refuse a license.
The Board set aside 37 days during the year for hearing the applications for
Certificates of Public Necessity and Convenience. In addition the Board has set
aside each Friday morning to deal with the matter of transfers and other details
brought before it by the Public Vehicle Division. The Board also during 1940 gave
appointments for similar hearings at Port Arthur and Fort William, Kirkland Lake,
Cornwall, Sudbury and North Bay.
During the year 44 applications were made for Public Vehicle Licenses and 819
for Commercial Vehicle Licenses. These include applications for extensions to and
clarification of existing licenses, and the following is a classification of these and dis-
position made of same: —
Class Class Class Class Class Class Class

In supporting an application before the Board the applicant may appear in pers-
on or be represented by his Solicitor, or, under exceptional circumstances, if unable
to attend, may submit evidence in the form of letters, petition or affidavits. The
Board hears and considers the evidence for and against and also takes into considera-
tion the facilities extended by existing licensed operators and its decision is based
on whether public necessity and convenience requires the service for which the
application is made. During the past year the Board has required that sufficient
evidence be filed with each application for a license or extension to a license to
justify the application being listed for hearing. This has tended to shorten the list
as well as to insure that applications are supported when listed for hearing.
All transfers of Public Vehicle and Public Commercial Vehicle licenses are sub-
ject to the approval of the Board and care is taken to prevent anything that might
appear to be trafficking in licenses. Transfers of important licenses are usually
made the subject of a Hearing and evidence is heard for and against.
The Department of Highways has referred to the Board during the year the
applications of Class "D" operators for substitution or addition of contract ship-
pers. Such applications are now made the subject of Hearings.
Through the co-operative efforts of the Department of Education and the Public
Vehicle Division of the Department of Highways, an effort was made to have all
motor vehicles carrying school children licensed under a school bus permit. These
applications were dealt with by the Board and permits issued for which no fees
were charged and the result has been that 110 School bus applications were receiv-
ed during the year. Of these 97 were granted. 8 cancelled, 3 discontinued, 1 is not
operating and 1 has lapsed. The chief objective of this effort has been to require all
such vehicles to carry insurance as provided by "The Public Vehicle Act."

Front Concession, Yonge Township in the County of Leeds.

— and —
THE DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS,
Respondent.
L. V. Fitzpatrick, Esq., K.C For the Applicant,
R. J. Driver, Esq., K.C , , For Tenant, Margaret McMillan
H. J. Sims, Esq., K.C For the Respondent.
JUDGMENT
This is an application on behalf of the Claimant for the determination of the
amount of damages to be paid to her by the Department of Highways for land ex-
propriated by the Department for Highway purposes.
The Claimant is a married woman and is the residuary legatee under the will
of her father, William McMillan, and her mother, Margaret McMillan, has a life
estate in the west half of Lot 9 and the East quarter of Lot 10, Broken Front Con-
cession, Yonge Township, County of Leeds.
The farm is situated along the St. Lawrence River. The Claimant says it con-
tains about 125 acres. The plan shows 93^2 acres. The farm house and small bam
are built near the St. Lawrence River, and are surrounded by a garden plot, some
small fruit bushes and some fruit trees. On a small point jutting into the River are
two cottages owned by residents of Brockville who each pay $15.00 per year rent
for the land on which the cottages are built. The balance of the river frontage is
not suitable for summer cottages.
Most of the farm is covered with water or is low lying. Besides the garden plot
there are 7 to 9 acres of workable land. There are two wood lots one of which
can be approached only by boat. The farm and farm buildings are reached bv a
Township road, a winding road unimproved through a bush. The distance by the
road from the buildings to the main road is about four miles. The road is almost
unpassablc in winter. Rocks are jutting up in portions of the road which make it
dangerous for automobiles. The house is not occupied in the winter, the residuary
legatee being a married woman resides with her husband on his farm and the
mother occupies the house during the summer. The mother sometimes rents part
of the house by the day or week to tourists.
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 21
The farm was purchased by the late William McMillan in 1897 for $1100.00. He
erected a barn. The property is assessed at $850.00.
Geo. A. Clow, the husband of the Claimant says that he worked the farm. He
uses the land north of the highway about 40 acres (except 9 acres) for pasture. In
addition there are 9 acres of workable land and about 50 acres of bush land. He
values the land north of the new highway at $2500.00 for pasture. He values the
land (about 12 or 14 acres) south of the highway at $6000.00; $3000.00 for the house
and barn and $3000.00 for the river front. He refers to the sale of a small farm to
the Sifton Estate, about 15 acres with a small house for $15,000.00.
On cross examination he valued the tillable land at $75.00 per acre, and the
river frontage, 1300 ft. at $3.00 per foot.
Geo. Clow, the father of Geo. A. Clow, figures there would be 3000 cords of
stove wood on the land, and the land, after removal of woods, would be worth
$1000.00. He placed a value of $4000.00 on the land north of the new highway and
$6000.00 on the land south of the highway for lots 800' frontage at $6.00 per foot.
In cross-examination he said he was not a valuator, but that he had 80 acres on No. 2
Highway which is assessed at $3000.00.
D. R. Davis, an Insurance and Real Estate Agent in Brockville, claimed also to
be an appraisor, but in cross examination admitted that his appraising was as to
damage by fire. He placed a value of $4000.00 on the land north of the highway
after being told as to the lumber. He said that on the river front there were two
good points, that it was not now ready for subdivision but had a potential value
of $2500.00. Total valuation $6500.00. In cross examination he admitted that his
knowledge of valuation of river frontage west of Brockville was not so good as East
of Brockville where river frontage would sell at $10.00 per foot. He said there
were large boulders in front of the East point and it would be necessary to remove
these.
J. A. McDonald, a farmer, valued land with bush north of Highway at $33.00
per acre, the house at $2,000.00, barn $275.00 and shed at $50.00.
Benjamin Ferguson, a farmer, valued land north of highway with the timber
at $35.00 per acre and the buildings the same as Mr. McDonald.
Walter Fulford, a farmer, 4 miles west of Brockville, has developed some river
frontage and has made sales at $10.00 per foot. He says that Clow's irontage com-
pares with his but is 6 or 7 miles West. He valued the land south of the highway
at $6000.00. He said his access to highway was good and about GO rods away.
For the Defence:
Jean A. Lewin, the deputy Registrar of the Surrogate Court produced the papers
filed on application for Probate of the Will of William McMillan, wherein the Ex-
ecutor, Margaret McMillan, the widow, and Archibald Elliott swore that the value
of this farm was at that time (February 1907) $1100.00.
Joseph Elwood, a Real Estate Agent of South Falls, examined this farm. He
figured there would be 25 acres in both wood lots and that there would not be
sufficient lumber on it to interest a lumber man. He enumerated different farms
he was offering for sale. He said the farms today were worth about 50% of what
they would sell for 20 years ago. He valued the farm at $1500.00.
Walter Gardiner, an appraisor for the Commissioner of Agricultural Loans, has
known the property for 20 years. He placed the value at $1800.00.
Victor Purvis, Reeve of Young Township, valued the farm at $2000.00 and
something additional for river frontage. He pointed out that the assessment was
$850.00; that formerly assessments were two-thirds of value but that the percentage
has been lowered on farms farther back from the road.
Norman Richardson, Chief Property Valuator for the Department of Highways
said that he took the whole farm because the north part was of little value and
there were no building on it. He valued the farm at $2000.00 which included the
river frontage.
He pointed out that the Sifton purchase was for 100 acres and the price paid
was $3500.00. It was a purchase to add to the location of the property then held
by the Sifton Estate.
22 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
He admitted he had offered $2700.00 for the property in order to avoid litigation.
At the request of the parties the Board inspected the property. The only land
suitable for summer cottages is now occupied by the two cottages mentioned in the
evidence. The balance of the frontage is rocky and not protected by trees. The
house has been recently painted and is in a fair state of repair, but the furnace is use-
less. The barn is in poor repair and is not suitable for cattle. The other buildings
are of little value. The balance of the land is of little or no value as a farm. Much
of it is covered with water and bush, and the balance is low. Only between 7 and
9 acres is workable. No farmer will pay much for a farm on which there is only
7 to 9 acres of tillable land, even if the balance could be used for pasture. The
farm is poorly situated and the road leading to it is extremely poor.
If Geo. A. Clow was honest in his statement of values — 50 acres bush $3000.00,
land north of the highway for pasture $2500.00, land south of highway $6000.00,
buildings $3000.00, he must have been greatly influenced by his statement that the
Sifton property (15 acres and a small house) was sold for $15,000.00. His statement
was wrong. There were 97 acres instead of 15 acres, and the purchase price was
$3500.00 not $15,000.00 and the purchase was by the Sifton Estate to add to their
then holdings.
The Board cannot accept the evidence of Geo. A. Clow or his witnesses, as to
value. The Board cannot believe Mrs. Clow when she says that she was offered
$8000.00 for the property south of the highway by an American whom she never
saw before or since. The evidence of these witnesses is most unreasonable.
The Department has agreed to take over the leases of the two cottages and to
allow Mrs. McMillan the use of the house, garden and fruit trees and bushes dur-
ing her life.
The Board is unable to find that this property is worth $2700.00 the amount
offered by Richardson, and the offer must have been made to avoid litigation as he
says. The Board finds that a fair value of the said lands is $2000.00, in addition
tu the use hereinbefore mentioned reserved to Mrs. McMillan. There will be no
damages allowed for forcible taking.
There will be no costs to either party and Order will be issued accordingly, the
Board's fee of $40.00 on the application to be paid by the Department of Highways.

P.F.A.-9572
IN THE MATTER of Section 76 of "The Highway Improvement Act"
(R.S.O. 1937, Chapter 56), and
IN THE MATTER of the expropriation by the Department of Highways
of the Province of Ontario of certain lands owned by Mabel Milligan
and being part of Lot i, Concession 1, Township of North Grimsby,
County of Lincoln, and
IN THE MATTER of the determination of the proportion of the fixed
amount of compensation as between the said owner and R. Murgatroyd
and Sons, Mortgagees.
F. R. Murgatroyd, Esq for the Mortgagees, F. Murgatroyd and Sons
H. C. Moore, Esq For the Department of Highways
JUDGMENT
THIS IS A CLAIM for compensation for the expropriation of 2.858 acres of land
being all of the southerly portion of Lot Number 1, Concession 1, in the Township
of North Grimsby in the County of Lincoln, an orchard farm in the Niagara Penin-
sula, by the Department of Highways for highways purposes.
On the 5th day of June, 1937, Highway Plan No. 134 comprising an area of 1.174
acres was registered. On the 19th day of September, 1938, Highway Plan No. 172
comprising an area of .121 acres was registered. On the 16th day of May, 1939,
Highway Plan No. 193 comprising an area of .020 acres was registered. On the 25th
day of November, 1939, Highway Plan No. 210 comprising an area of 1.543 acres
was registered. The total area of the various takings is 2.858 acres and is the south-
erly portion of the farm belonging to Mabel Milligan on which R. Murgatroyd and
Sons hold a mortgage for $2,000.00 at the times of expropriation. On the 17th day
of February, 1924, one William Hunter who was the owner of 14 acres of land more
or less gave a mortgage to Robert C. Murgatroyd and Ellis W. Murgatroyd doing
business under the name and style of R. Murgatroyd and Sons for the sum of $3,-
500.00 with interest at 7 per cent. On the 18th day of March, 1927, William Hunter
sold to Mabel Milligan 9 acres more or less of the said lands and the said Mabel
Milligan assumed payment of $2250.00 of the said mortgage which was chargeable
against the said 9 acres. The mortgagees discharged 4.792 acres of tlie said 14 acres
for the sum of $1250.00 or at the rate of about $250.00 per acre.
The Department of Highways agreed with Mabel Milligan to pay the sum of
$1600.00 as full compensation for the taking of the said lands and all damages
suffered by her and paid to the said Mabel Milligan the sum of $1000.00 on account.
No Notice of Expropriation was given to the Mortgagee.
R. Murtgatroyd and Sons gave notice to the Department of Highways of their
mortgage and the Department of Highways suggested that they should pay to the
said R. Murtgatroyd and Sons the sum of $600.00 as compensation for the damages
to them resulting from the exercise of the power to expropriate. R. Murgatroyd
and Sons claimed that $600.00 was not sufficient compensation for the damages suf-
fered by them and claimed that they were entitled to payment to them of the full
sum of $1600.00 which sum they agreed was sufficient to cover the damages suffer-
ed by them.
The Public Works Act (R.S.O. 1937, Chapter 54, Section 21), provides:
"The Minister shall make to the owner of land entered upon, taken or used
by him or injuriously affected by the exercise of any powers conferred by
this Act due compensation for any damages necessarily resulting from the
exercise of such powers, beyond any advantage which the owner may derive
from the contemplated work, and any claim for such compensation not mutu-
24 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
ally agreed upon, shall be determined as hereinafter provided."
In the Interpretation section of this act, Section 1 (g) provides:
" 'Owner' shall include a mortgagee, lessee, tenant, occupant, person entitled
to a limited estate or interest, and a guardian, executor, administrator or
trustee in whom land or any interest therein is vested."
R. Murgatroyd and Sons, the mortgagees, claim that they were entitled to be
paid the full sum of $1600.00. The Board must decide what sum of money the Min-
ister should pay to R. Murgatroyd and Sons for compensation for damages to R.
Murgatroyd and Sons resulting from the exercise of the powers beyond any ad-
vantage which the owner may derive from the contemplated work.
No evidence as to values or damages was given by the Murgacroyds, they
claiming that they were entitled to be paid the full sum of $1600.00 agreed upon.
For the Department of Highways, Joseph J. Smith, one of the valuators for the
Department since 1937, and a man who has had a vast experience in purchasing,
owning and valuing orchard land in the Niagara Peninsula, said that the land was
level and fairly good except in the south west corner containing about 1.27 acres
which was a ravine through which a creek ran, the banks of which were a poor
soil showing shale. The balance of the land taken comprising 1.58 acres, is much
better land and would be as good as the land on the rest of the 9 acres. In his
opinion the 1.27 acres in the ravine would not be worth more than $100.00 per acre
but the land west of the ravine would be worth from $275.00 to $300.00 per acre.
He says that the building of the highway has increased the value of the land and
that practically all of the poor land of the farm has been expropriated. He says
that in his opinion the farm would sell for as much today as it would have sold for
prior to taking the 2.858 acres. In cross-examination he referred to the fact that
the buildings on this farm were approached, prior to the construction of the high-
way, by a narrow road which crosses the railway tracks going south. He said that
at first he valued the land taken at $450.00 but by reason of the taking and other
damages, he made an offer of $800.00 to Mrs. Milligan, the owner. He says that the
offer was later increased to $1600.00 in order to prevent a lawsuit.
Mrs. Milligan said that she had received $1000.00 and that in her opinion the
$1000.00 paid was for the damages for loss of crops, and for trees which were taken
out and of which they lost the use. She says that they got no revenue from the
farm for two years by reason of the work that was being done by the Highways
Department.
In determining the amount of compensation, the law is well settled that the
value to the claimant of the total farm before taking should be taken, and that its
value after the part is taken shall be ascertained and that the owner should be
paid the difference between the two sums: Re Ontario and Quebec Railway and Tay-
lor (1884) 6 O.R. 338; James vs. Ontario and Quebec Railway (1886) 12 O.R. 624, 15
O.A.R. 1; Re Hannah and Campbellford E. Ry. Co., (1915) 34 O.L.R. 615. The Board
finds that in June, 1937, before the taking, the farm was worth the sum of $3610.00
and the value of the farm after the taking to have been the sum of $2910.00, the
latter sum including the amount by which the value of the farm has been increas-
ed by reason of the construction of the new highway. In the opinion of the Board,
the proximity of the right of access to this new highway constituted an advantage
which the owner will derive from the contemplated work within the meaning of
Section 21 of The Public Works Act: Re Toronto and Hamilton Highway Commis-
sion and Crabb (1916) 37 O.L.R. 656, 663. Deducting the latter sum from the form-
er leaves the sum of $700.00 as representing the total value of the lands expropriat-
ed and the injury caused to the remainder of the farm by the expropriation. Inter-
est at 5 per cent, should be allowed on $287.54 from the 5th day of June 1937 on
$29.64 from the 19th day of September. 1937, on $4.90 from the 16th day of May
1939. and on $377.92 from the 25th day of November, 1939.
Section 32 of The Public Works Act provides:
"The compensation agreed upon or adjudged for any land or property ac-
quired, taken, or used in or injuriously affected by the exercise of any of
the powers conferred by this Act shall stand in the stead of such land or
property, and any claim to or encumbrance thereon shall, as respects the
Crown, be converted into a claim to or upon such compensation and shall
no longer affect such land or property so acquired, taken or used."
In the case of Bigelow v. Austin (1922) 23 O.W.N. 230, Middleton J as he then
was, said at p. 230:
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 25
"Plainly the proceeds of the expropriation of lands belong in the first place
to the mortgagee. The question whether his security is ample or scant is quite
irrelevant. To the extent that the mortgage-debt is reduced, the creditors
benefit. The mortgagees claim is incontestable."
The Board finds that R. Murgatroyd and Sons are entitled to the sum of $700
with interest
On 1.174 acres from June 5th, 1937, on $287.54 $48.61
On .121 acres from Sept. 19th, 1937 on $29.64 4.58
On .020 acres from 16th May, 1939, on $4.90 35
On 1.543 acres from Nov. 25th, 1939 on $377.92 17.19
and that on payment of the said sums to R. Murgatroyd and Sons, they shall release
the said expropriated lands from their mortgage and that their mortgage shall be
reduced by the sum of $700.
R. Murgatroyd and Sons claimed $1600.00. The Department of Highways ver-
bally offered $600.00. The damages found are $700.00 and Interest. Under the cir-
cumstances there should be no order as to costs, except the Board's fee of $15.00
which the Board orders to be paid by the Department. The said fee having been
paid by R. Murgatroyd and Sons, it is ordered that the Department shall reimburse
them.

for fixing by the Board of compensation to be paid to Howard L. Trick-

JUDGMENT
The Department of Highways expropriated 12.1 acres for right of way purposes
and 8.66 acres south of the Highway, being a part of the farm of the Plaintiff in
Lots 17, 18, 19, Broken Front Concession in the Township of Yonge in the County
of Leeds. The lands expropriated are the St. Lawrence River frontage of the Claim-
ant's farm.
The Claim was heard by the Boai'd at Brockville on the 10th day of July, A.D.
1940.
The Claim as filed is as follows:
1. Right of way $100.00 for 12.1 acres $1210.00
2. Lands south of right of way 6.66 acres. All this land is marsh land for
which he claims $100.00 660.00
3. 2 acres of this property is suitable for cottage property and he claims
for this $600.00 1200.00
4. Deprived from use of River for watering cattle 1000.00
5. Building a road from his house to new highway 500.00
6. Damage on account of house not facing highwax 300.00
7. Damage for ditching 150.00
8. Loss of 1938 crop 100.00
$4,120.00
H. L. Trickey, the Claimant, states that the farm was a good dairy farm com-
prismg 260 acres, all fronting on the River. His house and barns faced the Township
Road, along which tlu> mail was deUvered and milk and cream collected, that since
the new highway is constructed the Township road will not be used, his house
is facing from the new road; and mail is delivered on the new road and milk and
cream are collected from the new highway; and he will be compelled to build a
new road from his house to the new highway, for all of which he claims damages.
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 27
He also claims that before the new highway was constructed he kept sixty cattle
but since he has kept only forty-five to fifty. He did not give any reason for this.
He also said that when it is wet he cannot get to the new road and must use the old
road. He claimed that part of the land taken was choice work land and he some-
times put in crops on part of it. Other years he used it in the Spring and Fall for
pasture and sometimes he harvested the mash hay. He has a creek running past
his barn.
With reference to Claims 1, 2 and 3 the Claimant asks $100.00 per acre for the
land taken, about twenty acres (2 acres of which he claims to be more valuable
than the rest by reason of the fact that it might be used for cottage purposes. He
admitted that it is low marshy land except a very small portion, that he used it for
pastui'e in the Spring and Fall, and sometimes tilled a part of it. The Coutoux
plan Exhibit 3 filed by the Department shows that in the right of way there is 6.91
acres which is called high ground (above water level on June 27th, 1940) and 5.10
acres of marsh (below water level June 27th, 1940). South of the right of way there
is 2.56 acres of high ground and 6.10 acres of marsh. For 18 acres of this he claims
$100.00 per acre. Such a price is most unreasonable for land and marsh of this
character.
With reference to the two acres claimed as being suitable for cottage purposes —
the easterly point, referred to by the Claimant as being rather low, is shown on Ex-
hibit 3 as "Marsh: Crop of Marsh Hay." The westerly point, two portions of which
are shown as 'Marsh' and the balance as 'Crop of Marsh hay' is shown as being 248,
or about 3 feet higher than water level 244.96. Neither point has ever been used
for cottage purposes and the Board doubts that it will ever be so used under any
circumstance. The Board finds that the lands taken are of little value as farm
land; that its only value is as pasture land and for the harvesting of marsh hay. As
pasture it would be of some value in the Spring, and for marsh hay it would be
of some value if the crop is harvested early and before it gets rank. Its use during
and after the summer would be of little or no value either as pasture or for hay.
The land expropriated is only a small portion of his marsh lands, his whole frontage
on the river and for some distance back, being marshy low lying land, some covered
with rushes and the balance with what he calls marsh hay. A fair value for this
land would be $20.00 per acre.
With reference to Claim No. 5 — the ingress and egress to and from his farm
have not been interfered with, and no actionable damage has been sustained by rea-
son of this.
Claim No. 6. This is not a matter for which damages can be recovered.
Claim No. 7. Damage for ditching. At some points north of the highway fence
the Department has sloped the Claimant's land toward the ditch. The damage for
this is almost negligible.
Claim No. 8. Loss of 1938 crop. No evidence was tendered to show when this
land was expropriated but the Claimant in his evidence said that on the 13th of
July, 1938, he was approached by the Department with an offer. The 'crop' would
be a crop of marsh hay. Damage, if any, on this claim would be small.
With reference to Claim No. 4 — damage from loss of use of river for watering
cattle. This claim has given the Board some trouble. One thousand dollars is
claimed for this. Cattle were pastured on this frontage during the Spring and
Fall, leading to the conclusion that it was of value as pasturage during the rainy or
wet seasons. The land north of the new highway is little if any higher than the
land expropriated and some of it is not so high as the River high water mark. A
creek runs through the Claimant's land and he has other sources of water supply.
But even so there is no doubt that there is some damage to the defendant by being
cut off from the River and in the opinion of the Board the Claimant should be
allowed $300.00 on this claim.
The Board, therefore, finds that the damage suffered by the Claimant is as fol-
lows:

JUDGMENT
THIS IS A MOTION on behalf of the Respondent, to set aside the procedeings
launched by the Applicants.
By Chapter 20 of the Statutes of Ontario. 1940, The Ontario Municipal Board
Act was amended by adding thereto the following clause:
(ii) hear and determine the application of any municipality to confirm, vary
or fix the rates charged or to be charged in connection with water sup-
plied thereto by any other municipality.
Four applications were made by the Applicants under the Legislation to the
Board to fix the rates to be charged to the said four municipalities by the City of
Ottawa, and this is a motion by the City of Ottawa for an Order declaring that the
legislation did not apply to the Respondent. The motion was heard by the Board
at the Board's Chambers at the City of Toronto on the 29th day of May, A.D. 1940.
Counsel for the Respondent argued:
1. That the legislation was one sided legislation by reason of the fact that
only the municipalities to which water was supplied had the right to launch
an application, and
30 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
2. That the legislation permitted municipalities to which water was being sup-
plied by another municipality to treat agreements as scraps of paper and
3. That the legislation did not apply to the City of Ottawa by reason of the
fact that the City of Ottawa had special legislation with reference to its
water works.
With reference to the first and second of these contentions, these arc matters
with which the Board, on this motion, has no right to deal. In connection with the
third contention, the City of Ottawa Waterworks Act, 35 Victoria, Chapter 80, was
a special act passed in the year 1872 under which a water commission was estab-
lished in the City of Ottawa for supplying water to the City of Ottawa for the use
of its inhabitants. Amongst other things the act provides:
2. It shall be the duty of the said commissioners to examine, consider and
decide upon all matters relative to supplying the said City of Ottawa with
a sufficient quantity of pure and wholesome water for the use of its in-
habitants, and also to build and construct necessary water works, buildings,
machinery, and other appliances requisite for the said object.
10. The board of commissioners for the time being shall regulate the distribu-
tion and use of the water in all places and for all purposes where the same
may be required, and from time to time shall fix the prices for the use
thereof and the times of payment; and they may erect such number of
public hydrants and in such places as they shall see fit; and direct in what
manner and for what purpose the same shall be used, all which they may
change at their discretion: Provided always, that all hydrants, conduits,
or other appliances required and furnished for the purpose of extinguish-
ment of fires shall be placed as the corporation of the City of Ottawa shall
direct, and shall be under their exclusive control and discretion when
erected.
11. The commissioners shall have power and authority and it shall be their
duty from time to time, to fix the price, rate or rent (such price, rate or
rent not being less, after the completion of the water works, than suffi-
cient to pay the interest and sinking fund upon the debentures issued for
the construction of water works, and the expenses of maintaining and
working the same), which any owner or occupant of any house, tenement,
lot, or part of a lot, or both, in, through, or past which the water pipes
shall run, shall pay as water rate or rent, whether such owner or occupant
shall use the water or not, having due regard to the assessment and to any
special benefit and advantage derived by such owner and occupant, or
conferred upon him or her or their property by the water works, and the
locality in which the same is situated and such water late or rent as shall be
assessed by such commissioners upon such owner or occupant, shall be and
continue a lien and charge, unless paid, upon such real estate; and the
water commissioners shall also have power and authority, from time to
time to fix the rate or rent to be paid for the use of the water by hydrants,
fire-plugs and public buildings.
12. That each vacant lot of land in the City of Ottawa, fronting on the streets
under which the water pipes shall be placed shall, provided the pipes run
past the said lot, be rated and taxed by the said commissioners .due regard
being had to the assessment and to the advantage which the said lot shall
derive from water works.
13. The commissioners shall have full power from time to time to make and
enforce all necessary by-laws, rules and regulations for the collection
of the said water-rent and water-rate and for fixing the time and times
(which shall be quarterly) when, and the places where, the same shall be
payable: and the said water-rents and water-rates when collected shall be
paid over to the chamberlain of the City of Ottawa, and by him placed to
the credit of the water account:
27. The water commissioners shall have power and authority to supply any
corporation, person or persons with water although not resident within
the City of Ottawa and may exercise all other powers necessary to the
carrying out of their agreements with such persons as well within the
townships of Nepean, Gloucester and the incorporated Village of New
Edinburgh as within the City of Ottawa: and they may also from time to
time make and carry out any agreement which they may deem expedient
for the supply of water to any railway company or manufactory; provided
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 31
that no power or authority shall be exercised under this clause without
the consent and approbation of the corporation of the City of Ottawa.
With particular reference to Section 27, the meaning of the word "corporation"
was fully argued by Counsel on behalf of all parties, and it was contended by all
counsel that corporation did not mean a municipal corporation but referred particu-
larly to a "company." There is no interpretation of the word "corporation" in the
act. Mr. Proctor for the City of Ottawa argued further that there was no power
in the Municipality of Ottawa under the special act or under other acts, to supply
water to outside municipalities.
The Public Utilities Act and Suburban Area Development Act were both re-
ferred to and it was contended that neither of these acts would empower the Board
of Control of the City of Ottawa or the City of Ottawa to supply water to the ap-
plicants.
The City of Ottawa Act of 1872 provided that a Water Works Commissioner
should have control of the water works of the City. In 1879 by a special act, the
control of the water works system was changed from the water commissioners to
the Corporation. By a special act in 1913 the control of the water works was put
under a water commission which was elected. In 1916 by a further special act the
control and management of the water works system of Ottawa was changed to the
Board of Control of the City of Ottawa, end the water works system is today man-
aged and controlled by the Board of Control of the City of Ottawa.
In the year 1936 By-law No. 8267 of the City of Ottwa was passed. This was
a by-law respecting water works and by Section 2 of the said By-law the control
management and maintenance of the water works is hereby vested in the Board of
Control of the Corporation, which shall attend to and discharge, (subject to approval
and directions of the Council of the Corporation), all the duties required by an Act
passed in the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Her Late Majesty Queen Victoria,
chaptered 80, and entitled an Act for the Construction of Water Works for the City;
of Ottawa, or under any Act or Acts passed in amendment or in substituton there-
for, in whole or in part, to be attended to or discharged by the Water Commission-
ers or by the Water Works Committee in the said Acts mentioned.
Clause 3 of the said By-law provided that the water works of the Corporation
and the operation thereof shall be supervised and administered by an engineer, who
shall, under the direction and control of the Board of Control, perform the follow-
ing duties and his duties are named.
By clause 7 of the said by-law the water rates are fixed. Clause 46 of the by-
law deals with non-resident rate agreements and provides that no person shall be
permitted a supply of water for use in any building outside of the City of Ottawa
unless he has obtained permission therefor by resolution of the city council adopt-
ing a report from the Board of Control recommending his application, nor until the
applicant shall have executed an agreement according to the form set out in Sched-
ule "A" thereto. Clause 56 of the By-law provides that the rates for water supplied
to residents of an adjoining municipality shall be approved by the engineer and
shall be fixed and incorporated in an agreement in writing between the Corporation
and the corporation of such municipality. Schedule "A" to the By-law sets forth
the agreement with non-resident water consumers. Schedule "B" to the By-law sets
forth a list of the agreements entered into with adjacent municipalities.
There is no provision in the special act whereby an agreement shall be entered
into by the Corporation of the City of Ottawa with the applicants in this matter so
that the agreements which have been entered into must have been entered into
under and. by virtue of By-law No. 8267. Under the special legislation the Board
of Control should enter into agreements for the supplying of water.
The Board therefor finds that the agreements with the respondent in this mat-
ter have not been entered into by virtue of the special legislation of the City of
Ottawa (Act of 1872 and amendments) hereinbefore referred to and that therefor
the applicants have the right to apply to the Board under and by virtue of Section
59 of the Board's Act as amended by Statutes of Ontario, 1940, Section 1, and the
motion of the respondents is therefor dismissed. Costs of this motion are to be de-
termined by the Board on hearing the application.

32 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
P.P. A-9303
IN THE MATTER of Section 15 of "The Grand River Conservation Act,
1938" (Chapter 15).
BETWEEN:
THE NORWAY REALTY COMPANY LIMITED
Appellant,
— and —
THE GRAND RIVER CONSERVATION COMMISSION.
Respondent.
(Appeal from Decision of the Grand River Conservation Commission,
fixing the amount of compensation to be paid to the Appellant in respect
to the expropriation on Part of Lots 7 and 8, Concession 4, in the Town-
ship of West Garafraxa in the County of Wellington, consisting of 200
acres more or less with buildings thereon).
COUNSEL:
H. J. McNulty, K.C. For the Appellant
H. J. Sims, K.C For the Respondent
THIS IS AN APPEAL by the owner from the award of compensation of the
engineers appointed by the Grand River Conservation Commisison in respect to a
farm of 200 acres. 137 of which has been expropriated by the Grand River Com-
mission for the purposes of the Commission under the powers conferred upon the
Commission by the Grand River Conservation Act, 1938, Cap. 15.
An offer of $9,640.00 for the said expropriated lands was made by the Commis-
sion on the 2nd day of March, 1940, but this was refused by the owner on the 11th
day of March. 1940. On the 11th day of April, 1940. the Board appointed Wed-
nesday, the 8th day of May, 1940, at 10 a.m. at the Public Library in the Village of
Fergus as the time and place for the hearing of the appeal herein, and at that
time the full Board heard the evidence tendered by the appellant and the respondent,
and at the request of both parties viewed the property.
At the trial the appellant contended that the balance of the lands were of little
or no value to it because there were no buildings and it would not be wise to
build new buildings on a 63 acre farm. Since the hearing the parties have entered
into an agreement by which the Commission agrees to purchase the balance of the
lands and both parties agree that the price of the whole farm shall be fixed by this
Board. A copy of the said agreement has been filed with the Board.
The farm is described as the South West half of Lot 7 and the South West
half of Lot 8 in the Fourth Concession of the Township of West Garafraxa in the
County of Wellington and contains 200 acres more or less. It is situated on the
allowance for road between the Third and Fourth Concessions of the Township
which allowance for road ends at the Grand River at the south corner of the farm.
The frontage on the road is 4010 feet and of this 2960 feet is high land and is the
front of the part not expropriated by the Respondent. East of tliis frontage the
land falls gradually to the banks of the Grand River, and with the exception of the
63 acres, all of the said lands will be flooded by the works undertaken by the
Commission. The buildings are east of the 63 acres, not on the higher land but well
situated. They consist of a brick house built in 1883 but in a good state of repair.
a large frame barn in a fair state of repair, and some smaller buildings not of much
value. There is a row of evergreens west of the house. The orchard is of no value.
There is no water at the barn, the well having failed some years ago.
At the north east corner of the farm there was a bush covering some 16 acres,
and at the north west corner there was a bush covering some 17 acres, both of
which were sold by the Commission for $810.00, and at the time of the inspection
by the Board, had been cut down. The balance of the land has been cultivated.
The farm is not well situated being at the end of a blind road often blocked by
snow and it is then necessary to make a road through the fields.
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 33
In 1909 the farm was sold by Richardson, the then owner, for $18,000.00. In
1914 it was sold for $12,500.00. After sales in 1916 and 1917, it was sold by the then
owner to Ryan and Stapleton who incorporated the Norway Realty Company, the
present owner. Since 1924 the farm has been rented. The rental is now $200.00 a
year and taxes. The Norway Realty Company is a holding company for the Staple-
ton Estate which controls many properties including this farm. D. B. Stapleton is
the Secretary-Treasurer and Managing Director. He said he had been on the farm
only 6 times in 21 years. In 1919 the rent was $600.00 and taxes. In 1924 the half
interest of Ryan was purchased for $8000.00 but this was not cash.
The Grand River Conservation Act 1938 states that the Board of Engineers
shall determine the amount of compensation payable. This Board was composed of
H. G. Acres, G. C. Fairchild, and Herbert Johnson, all eminent engineers, but they
felt they were not qualified to place a value on the property and they appointed
Messrs. R. H. Smith, a farmer who formerly resided in Garafraxa who has been
Reeve and Councillor of that Township, who knew the values of farms, and the
sales of farms in the vicinity, and who knew the farm in question well, and J. L.
Gregson, the Township Clerk, who knew the value of farms in the vicinity, who
knew of sales of farms, and the assessments, to place a value on the farm in ques-
tion.
The evidence of these two men impressed the Board favourably. They had
gone carefully into the different aspects of the valuation and were fair. Mr. Smith
said that the former tenant had been sold out; that he left the farm in poor shape
and dirty, due to lack of tillage; that water was procured from the river, a dis-
tance of about 1000 feet; that the buildings were old and would require a heavy
expenditure to keep them up; that the farm is not well situated as the access to it
is by a blind road which is usually closed in the winter by reason of snow; that it
is 2^-2 miles from a school. He values the farm at $11,000. Mr. Gregson agrees
with this valuation.
Mr. B. J. McCabe, a Real Estate and Insurance Agent at Guelph, was called by
the Appellant. He deals in the sale of farms, but had sold no farms in this Town-
ship. He says it is an ideal stock farm, well located, good soil and well drained.
He examined the timber and logs cut down and values this at $2,500.00. He values
the land at $37.50 per acre and the buildings at $5500.00. His valuation of the
buildings is the same as the valuation placed by Messrs. Smith and Gregson. They
differ in the valuation of the land and the bush.
Smith and Gregson both agree that $30.00 per acre is a fair value for the land.
They are neighbours. They know what farms in that vicinity have been selling
for; they are supported by the Assessor who assesses land for full value, and the
Board finds that the value placed by them should be taken in preference to the
valuation placed by McCabe.
There is much difference in the valuation of the timber. This has been cut and
some of it removed. McCabe values this at $2,500.00 but does not show any qualifi-
cations as to his ability to value it. D. H. Storey, a saw mill operator, said that he
looked at the 16 acre parcel of bush land two years ago and he thinks it was worth
$1500.00. He looked at the logs cut on the 17 acre parcel and values it at $1,100.00.
He valued the spruce trees at $100.00. The Commission did not advertise the two
wood lots for sale. They asked several parties for bids and the highest bid they
got was $810.00. The Board was not impressed by Storey.
Smith and Gregson were of opinion that the price obtained by the Commis-
sion, $810.00, was fair, as the wood was mostly cedar, beech and soft elm and show-
ed considerable rot.
Upon due consideration, however, the members of the Board find that the price
of $11,000.00 recommended by the Engineers was fair, taking into consideration the
conditions and location of the said lands and buildings and the values of lands in
the said area at the time of the taking.
Accordingly the appeal is dismissed and the appellant having paid the Board's
fee of $25.00, there will be no order as to costs.

ALGONQUIN CORPORATION LIMITED
Appellant,
— and —
THE MUNICIPALITY OF THE VILLAGE OF BURK'S FALLS,
Respondent.
N. S. Robertson, Esq. Counsel for the Appellant
C. S. McGaughey, Esq Counsel for the Respondent
DECISION OF THE BOARD
THIS IS AN APPEAL from the decision of the Judge of the District Court of
the District of Parry Sound with regard to the Assessment of land and buildings in
the Village of Burk's Falls heard on Thursday, the 12th day of September, 1940, at
the same time as the appeal of Knight Brothers.
The Court of Revision reduced the assessment on Lots 11 to 15 Syples Street
by $3,000.00 but upheld the assessment on all other properties. The learned Judge
dismissed the appeal from the decision of the Court of Revision.
The only real evidence as to the value of these properties was again given by
Smith, the assessor, who maintained that his assessments were extremely reason-
able. There is a factory and other buildings on these lots and they are assessed
at $700.00 per lot. The contention of the appellant is that these lots were not more
valuable than the lots further down the river and that they should be assessed for
$75.00 per lot. There is no evidence to support this contention. The lots below have
been said to have been filled by muck, logs, sawdust, etc., and Lots Numbers 11 to
15 are much better situated.
Having viewed the properties and heard the evidence of the witnesses, the
Board is unable to find that the assessments as fixed by the Court of Revision are
in any way unreasonable and the appeal is therefore dismissed.
The appellant having paid the Board's fee, there will be no order as to costs.

Respondent.
N. S. Robertson, Esq Counsel for the Appellant

DECISION OF THE BOARD
THIS IS AN APPEAL from the decision of the Judge of the District Court of
the District of Parry Sound with regard to the Assessment of land and buildings
known as mill site, dam, etc., Syples St., W. pt. blk. A. and B and Intake, and office,
flume and bulkhead, and was heard by the Board in the Council chambers in the
Village of Burk's Falls on Thursday, the 12th day of September, 1940.
The Appellants had constructed a dam in the River from which they developed
water power and electrical energy, and they, under an agreement which will expire
this year, supplied electric lights and power to the Town. Their mills had been
operated by this power and electrical energy. Some years ago the Company went
into liquidation and for several years some portions of the buildings have been
leased to and used by one Klein and Company. Other portions of the buildings are
used by both the appellant and Klein and Company. It is admitted that arrange-
ments would be made between the appellant and the lessees as to payment of the
business tax found to be due.
For some years the appellant has enjoyed a fixed assessment on its property
and this agreement expires this year. The properties have been assessed annually,
but this year, by reason of the expiry of the fixed assessment, the assessor says that
he made a more careful assessment and in some instances the assessment was in-
creased. The assessments made by the assessor were as follows:
Land and Buildings Business
Mill site, dam, etc 5,000.00
Syples St., W. Pt. Blk. A. and B. and Intake 8,000.00
Office, flume and bulkhead 15,000.00 7,000.00
$28,000.00 $7,000.00
On appeal to the Court of Revision the assessment was reduced to $20,000.00 on
Land and Buildings and $5,000.00 for Business. On appeal to the County Judge,
this finding was substantiated and the appeal was dismissed.
To support its contention that it was over assessed, the appellant called the
Town Assessor, W. H. Smith, who said that he inspected the property carefully and
that even now he did not consider the appellant was assessed for full value. His
direct examination was really a cross examination without objection by Counsel
for the Respondent. With reference to item 1, when it was pointed out to him
that some of the timbers in the dam and on top of the dam showed evidence of de-
cay, he said that the dam itself was of a value of $1,000.00; that the land including
water rights was worth $4,000.00. He did not say, as argued by Counsel for the
Appellant, that the land was worth $3400.00, nor in the opinion of the Board did he
place himself in the position of placing that value on the land. The Members of
the Board understood him to say that the dam as a structure by itself was worth
36 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
$1,000.00. The lands included in mill site, should not be compared in value to other
lands in the town or even other lands owned by the appellant.
In Item 2, the west part of Blocks A and B and Intake, in his examination Smith
assessed the land at $3,000.00 and the structure at $5,000.00 but claimed they were
not assessed at actual value, but he kept the assessment down because he wanted
the appellant to continue operating. He had increased the 1939 assessment and
Counsel contended that this was increased because the appellant refused to reduce
power rates to the Corporation. There is no evidence of such a motive. There is no
evidence to disprove Smith's estimate of the actual value.
In Item 3, Office, bulkhead and flume and land $15,000.00, there is no basis for
the argument that the values of these properties would not be increased by reason
of being along the river.
Smith, the assessor, was called by the Appellant and the Board is therefore
asked by the appellant to accept his evidence. His evidence was fair and not tinged
with any animosity. He could not in any way be considered an adverse witness.
There was no evidence offered by the appellant to show that his assessments were not
fair and reasonable. Evidence to the effect that the properties were not being oper-
ated to the same extent as formerly is not evidence refuting his valuations. There
is evidence to the effect that efforts are and have for some time been made to
effect a sale. Culbert's evidence of an offer of $25,000.00 is not evidence of value.
He is a Service Station Operator. He said that that is all that he could afford to pay.
Having heard the witnesses and considered their evidence and having at the
request of both parties, examined the properties, the Board finds that it should not
interfere with the findings of the Judge and the Court of Revision. The appeal is
therefor dismissed. The appellants having paid the Board's fee, there will be no
order as to the costs.

BOARD'S DECISION
This was an appeal pursuant to Section 84 of the Assessment Act on the 1939
assessment of 55-59 King Street East in the City of Hamilton, and was heard by the
Board, all members sitting, at that city on the 4th of March, A.D. 1940.
V. H. Edwards, and Stewart Chambers gave evidence for the appellant to the
effect that the assessment of the land was in excess of the actual value of the same.
A. A. Parker, Fred S. Lumsden and Thomas Crompton gave evidence on behalf
of the respondent city to the effect that the assessment under appeal was justified.
It is noted that the land assessments in the block were raised in 1939 and while
the Board views with some misgiving an increased assessment on the type of pro-
perty under appeal, namely, a business block in an old and central section of the
city, nevertheless the members have been unable to come to the conclusion that the
present assessment is in excess of the actual value of the land in question. The
appeal is accordingly dismissed.
The appellant having paid the Board's fee upon the issuance of the appointment
and having failed in the appeal, there will be no further order as to costs.

BETWEEN:
LONDON REALTY COMPANY LIMITED,

THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF LONDON,
Respondent.
COUNSEL. P. J. W. Glasgow, Esq Counsel for the Applicant
H. Davidson, Esq Counsel for the Respondent
THIS IS AN APPEAL pursuant to Section 84 of "The Assessment Act" heard
by the Board, all members sitting, at London on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th days of April.
The property in question consists of the lands and building comprising the Hotel
London in the City of London. The 1939 land assessment was $106,920.00 and the
building assessment was $681,080.00, a total of $788,000.00. The Court of Revision
reduced the building by $28,000.00 leaving a total assessment in appeal of $760,-
000.00.
H. F. Struckctt, hotel manager, John Putherbough, a general contractor, and
H. G. Wright, hotel company executive, were called as witnesses for the appellant,
and H. E. Radford, H. J. Bennett, F. England, assessor, T. C. McBride and H. J.
Walker were called as witnesses by the respondent.
The questions relating to the value of the property, namely, the business in-
volved, cost of construction and the present value of the land and building, were
gone into very thoroughly by both parties and resulted in direct conflict of evidence.
The case is a difficult one in so far as the nature of the property puts it in a
class by itself in the City of London. After careful consideration, however, the
Board is unable to find any justification for the increase in assessment proposed by
the 1939 assessment. It is noted that the last four years inclusive placed the land
at $106,920.00 and in fact it is admitted by all parties that there is no quarrel with
the land assessment. With regard to the building assessment, it is noted that in 1936
it was $681,080.00. in 1937 $618,080.00 ,in 1938 $618,080.00, and in 1939 the assessment
department reverted to the assessment made in 1936 of $681,08000. The members
of the Board were unable to find in the evidence any justification for the said in-
crease and would view with misgiving any policy of assessment whereby assess-
ments were either decreased or increased without some pertinent reason.
The Board accordingly directs that the 1939 assessment be as follows:
Land $ 106,920.00
Buildings .' 618,080.00
TOTAL $ 725,000.00
and business assessment accordingly.
There will be no costs payable with the exception that since the appellant has
paid the Board's fee of $25.00, that the said sum of $25.00 shall be payable by the
respondent to the appellant.

This is an appeal from the decision of the County Court Judge, upholding the
Assessment by the Court of Revision, on the land being Lots Numbers 1372, 1376
and 1386 on the plan of Symington Avenue, and the buildings erected thereon, and
was heard by the Board at its Chambers in the Parliament Buildings in the City
of Toronto on Monday, the eleventh day of March, A.D. 1940.
T. H. Hancock, the manager of the appellant company, gave evidence to show
that up to the time of the depression this company had done a very large business,
which had fallen off very materially. He felt that the falling off of the business
was by reason of the fact that most of the building had been carried on during the
past few years on the outskirts of Toronto and that by reason of the situation of
his property, he was not getting his share of the business. He said that he would
sell for less than $50,000.00. He pointed out that he carried insurance of $300,000.00
which was a blanket insurance on the buildings, lumber and machinery. He said
that his lumber stocks were about $200,000.00 and that his machinery would be valu-
ed at about $100,000.00. He also claimed that the lands were not suitable for a
lumber business at the present time, that most of the lumber was brought in by
truck, and that the railway sidings did not add much to the value of the property
for a lumber business. In cross examination he admitted that he did a gross busi-
ness of $320,000.00 last year, and that when the subway was built in 1928, he had
claimed damages of $250,000.00 and that he had received $150,000.00 damages. This
subway took no part of his land but by reason of the subway there is a ramp in
front of most of his land. Within the past few years, he had built a box factory at
a cost of $10,300.00 and had done other repairs in 1932, 1936 and 1938.
Thos. A. Patterson, the Director of the Mickle-Dyment Lumber Company, point-
ed out that there was too much competition for the larger lumber companies as out-
siders and the smaller lumber companies were selling at less cost, and that none of
the lumber companies are doing the business that they formerly did.
J. D. Copeland of the Laidlaw Lumber Company, gave similar testimony, and
Harold Walker, a realtor of Toronto, suggested that the property should be divided
by the extending of Campbell Avenue south to Bloor Street, and that 2.7 acres west
of the westerly limit of such extension would be industrial property and worth
perhaps $10,000.00 per acre. He suggested that the appellant could move to Leaside
and purchase property which would be as valuable for his business as the present
property, at $5,000.00 per acre.
A. W. Hutchinson, a realtor of Toronto for 25 years, also suggested the extension
of Campbell Avenue to Bloor Street, and that if the part east of the extension were
broken up into building lots, the appellant might get more for it. He also suggested
that if the westerly part could be sold for commercial or factory purposes, he might
get a higher price for it. He valued the property as a residential property at $46,-
000.00 but had not valued it as an industrial site.
H. A. Wickett, a building contractor of Toronto, valued the building on the pro-
perty separately. Building No. 9 on the plan, the service station, he valued at $3,-
42 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
336.00 for the building and $1500.00 for the tanks and pipes. This is less than the
assessed value of this building. His valuations on the other buildings were much
higher than the assessments.
V. H. Edwards was called by the respondents and valued the land at $78,803.00
being $18,000.00 per acre. He claimed that the property had more value as an in-
dustrial site. He valued the buildings at $56,000.00.
The Board has considered this matter very fully. This business is a going con-
cern, and the business of the appellant has been carried on on this property for a
number of years. With the exception of the assessment on Building No. 9 on the
plan, the Board must find that the assessment is not higher than the value of the
buildings but finds that the assessment on the service station being No. 9 on the plan
which assessment is at present $7,000.00, should be reduced by $2,000.00.
The Board has considered the assessment on the land and has also looked at the
assessments of the neighbouring properties. In view of the situation of the easterly
2.7 acres, being that part of the appellant's property lying to the east of the exten-
sion of the easterly limit of Campbell Avenue, the Board believes that it should
be assessed at $14,000.00 per acre. This land, although facing on Bloor Street, is
affected by reason of the building of the subway and the ramp to support the land.
The Assessment on the balance of the said property should be at the rate of $16,-
000.00 per acre.
The Board finds that the assessment on the buildings should be reduced by $2,-
000.00 and that the assessment on 2.7 acres of the land should be reduced by $2,000.-
00 per acre making a total reduction in the assessment of $7,400.00, and that the
roll should be amended accordingly.
Formal Order of the Board will issue upon application of the appellants, and
the appellants having paid the sum of $25.00 for the Board's fee on the issuance of
the appointment herein, costs in the said sum of $25.00 shall be paid by the respond-
ent to the appellants.

JUDGMENT
This is an appeal from the decision of the County Court Judge, upholding the
Assessment by the Court of Revision on the lands and buildings in regard to the
assessment on Lot 204 Cheritan Avenue and 95-97, 99-101, 103-105, SW pt. Lot 200,
S. pt. Lot 202, 107-109 and Pt. Lot 203 Chatsworth Drive, and was heard by the
Board at its Chambers in the Parliament Buildings in the City of Toronto, on Tues-
day, the fifth day of March, A.D. 1940.
Evidence was presented by A. K. Kingsmill on behalf of the appellant, and by
V. H. Edwards on behalf of the respondent. The appellant attempted to show that
the lands were assessed for more than their actual value. The city attempted to
show that in the assessments the full frontage had not been assessed and asked the
Board to assess the properties in accordance with their contention.
After considering the whole matter, the Board finds that neither the buildings
nor the land in question are assessed at more than their actual value. With refer-
ence to the measurements, the Board refuses to make a finding and suggests that if
there has been a mistake made by the assessor in the measurements, that this should
be corrected by the assessor on his next assessment. Both the appeal and the
cross appeal will therefore be dismissed.
Formal Order of the Board will issue upon application of the respondent and
the appellant having paid the sum of $25.00 for the Board's fees on the issuance
of the appointment herein, there will be no Order as to costs.

NORWICH UNION LIFE INSURANCE SOCIETY,
Appellant,
— and —
THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF TORONTO
Respondent.
Harold E. Manning, K.C For the Appellant
F. A. Campbell, K.C For the Respondent
JUDGMENT
This is an appeal by the Norwich Union Life Insurance Society from its assess-
ments on Lots Numbers 46, 48 and 50 on the north side of King Street east in the
City of Toronto from the judgment of the County Court Judge who dismissed the
appeal of the Appellant from the decision of the Court of Revision, and was heard
by the Board at its Chambers in the Parliament Buildings in the City of Toronto
on the 22nd day of February, 1940.
Lot Number 50 is 24 feet 3 ¥2 inches frontage and 100 feet 2 inches in depth, and
the land is assessed at $950.00 per foot with the buildings at $17,000.00. Lots 46 and
48 King Street are lots having 19 feet 8 inches frontage with 100 feet depth, and
are assessed at $800.00 per foot frontage and the buildings thereon are assessed at
$5,000.00.
The appellants claim that the assessment on both land and buildings is too
high and they claim that the buildings add no value whatever to the land. The
rental of the buildings in 1939 amounted to $10,194.75, but the appellants claim that
the expenses of operating the buildings amounted to $9,900.88 leaving a profit of
$293.87.
W. H. Bosley, a witness for the appellant, has managed the building for a num-
ber of years and claims that the building on lot 50 is 54 years old and was formerly
a bank building. The building at 46 and 48 King Street was an old hotel and the
floors of the two buildings are on different levels. He points out that in nine years
operation of the two buildings, there has been a loss to the owners of $22,779.18 al-
though there was a small profit of $293.93 in the last year's operation. He says that
he has been offering to sell the property and that the largest offer that he received
for both buildings was $25,000.00. $3,800.00 of which was to be cash and the balance
to be secured by a mortgage on the properties. This offer was refused but the
appellant did offer to take the $25,000.00 providing $5,000.00 in cash were paid.
The buildings are both fairly well rented. He claims that the buildings add nothing
to the value of the land and that the land at 50 King Street is not worth more than
$600.00 per foot and the inside property is not worth more than $450.00 per foot. On
the appeal before this Board last year Mr. Bosley valued the land at 50 King Street
at $800.00 per foot and the inside property at $600.00 per foot, but he says that he
was wrong.
Frank McLaughlin also called by the appellant, says that the property is worth
about $25,000.00 and pointed out that the Shaw and Begg Building was assessed at
only $50,000.00 and that the Union Trust Company Building, a two-storey building
which was a better building than the buildings of the appellant, sold for $25,000.00.
He also says that the present rentals are fair rentals and that the expenses charged
by the appellant against rentals are not out of the way. He further claims that
the buildings add nothing to the value of the land.
ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 45
V. H. Edwards called by the city who has been in the real estate business for a
number of years, says that he can not see any change in the value of this property
from one year ago. He says that the land at 50 King Street is worth $1250.00 per
foot and that the inside land is worth $1050.00 per foot. He claims that the corner
building adds $18,620.00 to the value of the land and that the inside building adds
$5,125.00 to the value of the land.
H. Nixon, the Deputy Assessment Commissioner for Toronto, reviewed the
assessments of these properties during the past few years and pointed out that the
assessment on the total property was reduced from $154,979.00 in 1932 to $60,810.00
in 1939 or a reduction of 63%, that the land was reduced from $104,929.00 to $38,810.-
00, and that the buildings were reduced from $50,000.00 in 1932 to $22,000.00.
Mr. Bosley, on being recalled, said that in 1939 the insurance on the buildings
was reduced from $90,000.00 to $30,000.00. This was objected to by the owners and
after consultation with the owners, the insurance company placed the insurance at
$60,000.00, but later this was reduced to $50,000.00, and the insurance on the build-
ings now remains at $50,000.00.
The assessments on the land seem to be in line with the other assessments on
King Street. The north east corner of King and Toronto Streets having a frontage
of 23 feet 5 inches and a depth of 81 feet 6 inches, is assessed at $900.00 per foot.
The land to the west of the Appellant's property is assessed at $800.00 per foot.
In view of the fact that the rentals from the buildings amounted to $10,194.75
during the year, the Board is unable to find that the buildings do not add any value
to the land. The evidence did not show that there had been any depreciation in
the value of these buildings since the present assessments were determined by the
Board last year, but in view of the fact that it has been shown to the Board that
the Williams Building is assessed at $8,000.00, there seems to be a discrepancy in
the assessments of the present buildings with the Williams Building. Under all of
the circumstances and in considering the evidence placed before the Board, the
Board finds that the buildings in question are assessed at too high a figure, and
finds that there should be a reduction of $1,000.00 in the assessment of the inside
building and $3,000.00 in the assessment of the comer building.
The Board therefore finds:
(1) That the assessment on Lot 50 for the land at $950.00 per foot should be
$23,077.00 and the assessment of the building on the said parcel should
be $14,000.00.
(2) That the assessment on Lots 46 and 48 for the land at $800.00 per foot
should be $15,733.00 and of the building on the said parcel should be
$4,000.00.
Formal Order of the Board will issue upon application of the appellant, and
the appellant having paid the sum of $25.00, for the Board's fees on the issuance of
the appointrnent herein, there will be no Order as to costs.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
P.F. A-8990
IN THE MATTER of the Application of the City of Toronto, pursuant
to Sections 69 and 70 of "The Ontario Municipal Board Act" (R.S.O. 1937
Chapter 60) for an order dispensing with the assent of the electors to
the passing of a By-law authorizing the issue of $329,000.00 debentures,
the balance required for extending and making additions to the Toronto
Waterworks System and empowering the said Corporation to provide
moneys to the said amount for the said purposes.
R. C. Baird, Esq For the Applicant
A. M. Dewar, Esq. For Property Owners' Association
DECISION OF THE BOARD
This is an application by the Corporation of the City of Toronto authorizing the
issue of the debentures in the amount of $329,000.00 required by the Corporation in
extending and making additions to the Toronto Waterworks System by Statutes of
Ontario, 1925, Chapter 113.
The City of Toronto was empowered, without submitting the same to the elec-
tors qualified to vote on money By-laws, to pass by-laws for the issue of thirty year
serial debentures to an amount not exceeding $14,000,000.00 to raise money for ex-
tending and making additions to the Toronto Waterworks System. From time to
time debentures were issued during the following years for this purpose but in the
sale of the debentures it was found that the interest rate was too low to provide
the full amount of the debentures, and that in the sale of those debentures it is
found that there is a deficiency of $256,773.87 and that the sale expenses, printing
of the debentures, legal opinions, etc. cost $20,898.49 and it was further found that
in completing the said works there was an extra cost of $51,327.64 incurred, the said
three amounts mentioned totalling $329,000.00. and the City of Toronto now applies
to the Board to dispense with the vote of the ratepayers and that the issue of the
debentures for the said amount be authorized.
The motion was heard by the Chairman and he advised that he would report
favourably to the other members of the Board. The Chairman has now reported
to the other Members of the Board who have considered the matter, and the Board
finds that an Order should be issued that the application be granted dispensing with
the assent of the electors to the passing of the said By-law.

ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 47
P.F. A-9200
IN THE MATTER of the application of the Corporation of the City of
Toronto pursuant to Sections 69 and 70 of the Ontario Municipal Board
Act for authority to dispense with the vote of the electors with respect
to the construction of a new sewage treatment plant at an estimated
cost of $5,600,000.00 and for an order empowering the said Corporation
to authorize, proceed with and provide moneys for the said work.
C. M. Colquhoun, Esq., K.C., and
R. C. Baird, Esq Counsel for the Applicant
DECISION OF THE BOARD
This was an application:
(1) To dispense with a vote of the ratepayers of the City of Toronto pur-
suant to the Board's powers contained in Section 69 of The Ontario
Municipal Board Act, and
(2) For approval of the undertaking of a capital expenditure in the sum of
$5,600,000.00 as required by Section 70 of The Ontario Municipal Board
Act.
The applications were presented by the City Solicitor and the Mayor and Mem-
bers of the Board of Control spoke in support thereof. No opposition to the project
was voiced at the hearing, notice of which had been published in The Globe and
Mail, Toronto Star, and Telegram on the 17th day of February, A.D. 1940.
With regard to the application to dispense with a vote, the Board is granting
the same. The matter in substance was approved by a vote on the question by the
ratepayers and it is acknowledged by all parties that the present application is
substantially of a technical nature.
With regard to the matter of approving the capital expenditure, the Board is
satisfied that the expenditure is a necessary one, after perusing the available tech-
nical reports and hearing evidence tendered by the elected representatives of the
city. Accordingly, the Board's Order of approval will issue as of this date.
The contentious matter at the hearing was with regard to the term of deben-
tures to be issued. The Board had suggested in a letter to the City of February
12th, that it should consider a term of ten years for the debentures having in mind
the fact that the debentures would be issued from time to time over a period of
four years or five years, which would result in a fifteen year period of repayment,
and having in mind also the fact that the approval of the Department of Health to
this work was subject to the condition that the final stage of the complete treat-
ment plant will be undertaken within four years of the completion of the first
stage. The whole cost of the two stages is estimated to be $9,499,000.00 so that the
debentures for the completed work would likely spread the repayment over a total
period of 30 years.
Mr. Colquhoun argued that a ten year term would necessitate a tax rate which
could not be borne by the ratepayers. From the figures given to the Board by
those representing the city on the application, it is shown that
(1) For a ten year term, the interest would amount to $980,000.00.
(2) For a twenty year term, the interest would amount to $2,280,000.00.
(3) For a thirty year term, the interest would amount to $4,115,470.00.
and that the corresponding annual levies covering both principal and interest would
be as follows:
$658,000.00 for ten years,
1394,000.00 for twenty years, and
$324,000.00 for thirty years.
48 THE REPORT OF THE No. 24
With regard to the ten year term, the Board agrees with counsel for the appli-
cant that the annual charges to cover principal and interest would be unduly high.
The members of the Board are convinced, however, that the proper term for the
debentures is twenty years having in mind that while it is true the annual charges
necessary to meet such debentures would exceed the charges necessary to meet
thirty year debentures by $70,000.00 a year, that a saving in interest amounting to
$1,835,470.00 can be effected if the 20 year term is adopted.
The Board realizes that debentures for the payment for works will be issued
from time to time over a period of perhaps four years, and the Board approves of a
term of twenty years for each of the successive issues in a total amount of $5,600,-
000.00
With regard to the question of the Board's fee on the application, if the usual
tariff were followed the fee payable would, in the Board's opinion, be excessive.
Having regard to all the circumstances the Board fixes its fee at $1,000.00. The
formal Order of the Board will issue upon the request of the applicant and upon
payment of the Board's fee.

ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 51
DIRECT RELIEF— FUNDING A PORTION OF
IN THE MATTER of the application of the Corporation of the
City of Toronto for an Order of The Ontario Municipal Board ap-
proving of the undertaking of a capital expenditure for Direct Relief
for the year 1940, amounting to a maximum of $646,000.00 which is the
estimated amount exclusive of administration cost and cost of items
not admittable of government rebate of the Corporation's share of the
cost of Direct Relief in excess of $500,000.00 for the year 1940.
DECISION OF THE BOARD
THE CITY OF TORONTO has applied to the Board for approval of the funding
of $646,000.00 being the estimated amount in excess of $500,000.00 of the Corpora-
tion's share of the cost of Direct Relief for the year 1940. For some years past the
City has budgeted currently for $600,000.00 for Relief purposes exclusive of admin-
istration costs and has been allowed by the Board to borrow by way of debentures
the balance of the current Relief costs.
The Board's policy with regard to borrowing money on debentures to pay for
the cost of Relief has been to require all Municipalities to increase the annual levy
in the tax rate and to shorten the debenture term so that at the earliest date
possible all Relief moneys shall be levied for in the year in which thev are expend-
ed.
It is noted that the debenture charges to be levied for in 1940 covering former
Relief expenditures, as compared with those necessary in 1939, dropped from $2,-
572,019.00 to $1,958,656.00.
The Board has considered the matter fully and feels in view of the circum-
stances it would be a backward step to reduce the amount to be placed in the cur-
rent levy of the City of Toronto to meet its share of the estimated expenditure for
relief in 1940, and accordingly the Board would not be prepared to approve of the
items set out above, namely, $500,000.00 to be placed on the current budget and
$646,000.00 to be borrowed. The Board is prepared, however, to issue an Order of
approval as of this date under "The Unemployment Relief Act" permitting an issue
of debentures for the City of Toronto for 1940 in the sum of $546,000.00, the term
of the debentures to be two years. This would necessitate the City placing in its
current estimates the sum of $600,000.00 exclusive of administration costs, the same
sum which has been placed in the said estimates heretofore.

ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD FOR 1940 53
RELIEF FROM RE-BUILDING OF BRIDGE
P.F. A-9274
IN THE MATTER of Section 480, subsection (9) of "The Municipal
Act", and
IN THE MATTER of an application by the Corporation of the Township
of Adelaide for relief from its obligation to rebuild the bridge on road
used in lieu of Town Line running easterly from Highway No. 81 to
the junction of Millwood Road in the Township of Adelaide and Head
Street in the Town of Strathroy.
COUNSEL: J. G. Logan For certain Property Owners
Ian MacRae For the Town of Strathroy
BOARD'S DECISION
This is an application by the Township of Adelaide in the County of Middlesex
pursuant to the above legislation asking that the township be i*elieved of any duty
which it may be subject to to rebuild a bridge on the road used in lieu of the town
line running east from Highway No. 81 to the junction of Millwood Road to Head
Street in the Town of Strathroy.
The application was heard by the Chairman and Vice-Chairman at the Town
Hall, Strathi'oy, on the 25th day of April, 1940. Ambrose Topping, Clerk of the
Township, and H. Currie, Reeve, outlined the reasons for the application, namely,
that in their opinion it would be a saving of expense if the bridge did not have to be
built, the same having been washed out by a flood.
Two property owners, Shannon and Rose, gave evidence to the effect that they
would be adversely affected both in the matter of the use and value of their lands
should the bridge be not replaced.
Evidence before the Board varied as to the cost of the bridge from $2700.00 to
$1800.00 and it was further pointed out that should the bridge come up to certain
specifications, a grant could be obtained from the Department of Highways. The
Boai'd was further informed that there was a question of whether Strathroy would
be contributing or not, but the question of whether the Town of Strathroy had any
duty to contribute was not before the Board at the hearing.
After consideration of all of the evidence, the Board has come to the conclu-
sion that the circumstances do not warrant the Board exercising its discretion to
relieve the Township of Adelaide of any duty which it may have to rebuild the said
bridge. In the opinion of the members of the Board, the saving to the Township
would be negligible taking into consideration the contributions from other sources
and payment of compensation to affected property owners. Accordingly the appli-
cation must be dismissed.
The Township of Adelaide has paid the Board's fee of $25.00 and there will be
no further order as to costs.
DATED at Toronto this 15th day of May, A.D. 1940.
R. S. COLTER,
Chairman.
D. S. CHARLTON,
Vice-Chairman,
W. P. NEAR,
Commissioner.

CHAIRMAN'S LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL
To His Honour
The Honourable Albert Matthews, LL.D.,
Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario
May It Please Your Honour:
The undersigned respectfully presents the Thirty-Third Annual Report
of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario for the fiscal vear which
ended October 31, 1940.
The record of the Commission's work presented in this Annual Report
relates to three principal fields — the co-operative municipal field, the field of
rural supply, and the northern Ontario field. The first two cover the Com-
mission's activities on behalf of the co-operative systems, and the last relates
to its trusteeship of the Northern Ontario Properties on behalf of the Province.
Throughout the various sections of the Report dealing broadly with physical
operation of the plants, constructional activities and financial statements,
these fields of activity are clearly differentiated.
The Report also presents for the calendar year 1940 financial statements
and statistical data relating to the municipal electric utilities operating in
conjunction with the several co-operative systems for the supply of electrical
service throughout the Province.
War Activities
The past year's work of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of
Ontario has been dominated by the necessity for co-ordinating its activities
to the war effort of Ontario and of the Dominion. In all departments, first
place has been given to the task of ensuring that for the war industries of
Ontario there should be ample supplies of power available wherever and
whenever needed.
The beginning of the fiscal year in November 1939 found the Commission
in a favourable position with respect to power supplies and the promise then
made that Hydro could, during 1940, meet a greatly increased demand for
power for industries manufacturing munitions and war supplies has been
satisfactorily kept without undue difficulty.
The changing war situation resulting from the collapse of France made
it necessary to accelerate greatly the pace of Canada's war effort and this
vi THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
stimulated demands for power. When additional supplies of power are to be
provided from water-power developments, plans must be made well in
advance. Continuous attention has, therefore, been paid by the Commisison
to the problem of ensuring that the power resources of Ontario shall continue
to be ample to service all war demands. During the past year the Commission
advanced the date of taking 20,000 horsepower from the Maclaren-Quebec
Power Company from November 1st to July. Other possibilities of increas-
ing its power supplies are being examined.
In providing supplies of power under war conditions, the Commission
must plan for the energ>' requirements as well as the peak demand of the
primary load. In other words, not only must the generating capacity of the
system be ample to meet the total demand at peak loads, but the water flow
at the power developments must be sufficient to keep the generators working
at the required capacity for a greater proportion of the day or week. Higher
energy requirements make a greater demand upon stored water.
Ogoki River and Long Lake Diversions
One of the more important actions taken during the past year for in-
creasing Ontario's power supplies was the arrangement made with the
United States whereby Canada is enabled to utilize immediately for the
increase of power output at Niagara for war purposes an additional flow of
water equivalent to that which will be added to the Great Lakes as a result
of diverting water from portions of the Albany river watershed adjacent to
the height-of-land north of lake Superior.
The Long Lake project was completed in 1938 and was used during 1940
for the transportation of pulp wood. Since the arrangement was reached
with the United States the completed works have been used to divert some
1,100 cubic feet of water per second to the Great Lakes. Towards the end of
the year work was started on the Ogoki diversion which, when completed in
about two years' time, will divert an additional 4,000 cubic feet of water per
second through the Nipigon lake and river to the Great Lakes. The ability
to put to use an additional water flow of 5,000 cubic feet per second through
the power plants on the Niagara river as a result of the friendly co-operation
extended by the United States to the Dominion of Canada is of special and
immediate value, both with respect to peak demands and energy- require-
ments.
St. Lawrence River Project
Although the diversions into the Great Lakes from northern Ontario
have been dealt with on the basis of a friendly understanding with the United
States, they have, of course a bearing upon the much larger considerations
relating to the improvement of the St. Lawrence river for navigation and for
power. This subject is again prominently before the people of Eastern
Canada and in connection with future power resources of Ontario is of basic
importance. The St. Lawrence river improvement is undoubtedly an enter-
prise that will profoundly influence the growth and progress, not only of
Ontario and Quebec, but of the whole of Canada. As a project it is now
linked up with the steps being taken jointly by the United States and Canada
for the defence of the Americas. It is evident that changing world conditions
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION vii
must profoundly modify many of the views previously held respecting this
threat undertaking. During the past year certain investigations and studies
relating to power developm.ent on the international section of the river were
carried on by the Commission. United States authorities also were actively
investigating this project and several joint meetings of the technical advisers
of each countr>- were held during the year.
Operating Conditions
No special operating difficulties were experienced during the year. Ser-
vice interruptions were few and no major failure of equipment occurred.
Precipitation on most of the watersheds supplying the Commission's gener-
ating stations was sub-normal early in the year but the spring run-off filled
the storage reservoirs and water conditions at the close of the year were satis-
factory.
Interruptions to service due to lightning, sleet and gales were relatively
few and little damage was done to lines or equipment. There was only one
complete interruption during the year on the 220,000-volt lines supplying
power to the Niagara system from eastern sources.
To an increasing degree generating plants and transmission and distri-
bution net- works operated by the Commission on behalf of the various co-
operative systems and Northern Ontario Properties tend year by year to
become linked together, in so far as the physical properties are concerned.
Thus, the Niagara system is linked to the Georgian Bay system by frequency-
changers at Mount Forest and Hanover. It is also linked to the Eastern
Ontario system by a frequency-changer at Chats Falls. These frequency-
changers and their associated tie transmission lines are of sufficient capacity
to permit interchange of substantial blocks of power from one system to an-
other, so that diversity in the time of peak load, fluctuating energy require-
ments, or variations in power supplies available from different power plants,
may all be co-ordinated to smooth out the demand curve to the advantage of
the inter-connected systems.
Not only are the Commission's own plants inter-connected but connec-
tions are also available to certain municipal and privately owned local systems.
At times during the past year the Commission was able through these connec-
tions to render valuable assistance to the local systems of the Orillia Water,
Light and Powder Commission, the Rideau Power Company, the corporation
of Fenelon Falls, the Cam.pbellford Water and Light Commission, and the
municipality of Renfrew, w^hen the output of their own generating facilities
was restricted by conditions beyond their control.
The pooling of power resources by the co-operative systems of southern
Ontario contributes to the advantage of all three systems, as it reduces the
amount of reserve plant required. Instead of three different reserves of plant
capacity being maintained, all reserve plant becomes available to any system.
In northern Ontario also, inter-connection by means of long tie lines has been
beneficial between certain districts. For example, the inter-connection
between the generating stations serving the Patricia-St. Joseph district pre-
viously made, was of special benefit in 1940 as it enabled the Commission to

transfer to the Ear Falls generating station part of the load carried on the
Rat Rapids generating station. This was done for the purpose of raising the
level of the English river below Ear Falls to improve navigation and also to
limit the draw-down of the elevation of lake St. Joseph.
Load Conditions
Increased deliveries of power for war industries, and increased use of
power for commercial, domestic and rural service, all stimulated by the in-
creased industrial demand, featured the operations of the Commission dur-
ing 1940. For the war industries additional power in large amounts was
required and supplied. As was forecast last year, all these extra demands
were satisfactorily met and attention was directed to the various means of
ensuring ample supplies of power for the future.

Up to September 1940 the increase of the total primary peak load for all
systems, was about 14 per cent, or little more than 200,000 horsepower. During
October,November and December the monthly increases for total primary load
ranged between 6 and 7 per cent, increases of 100,000 to 120,000 horsepower
over corresponding months in 1939. This lower apparent rate of increase
was due in part to the continuation of daylight-saving time in many munici-
palities of the Niagara system, and also in part to the fact that in the corre-
sponding months of 1939 a rapid growth in load had taken place.
It is not possible to evaluate with exactness the effect of the extension of
daylight-saving time. However, taking into consideration the various
factors involved, it is estimated that the reduction in peak load attributable
to this cause was, during the closing months of 1940, from 65,000 to 85,000
horsepower. Making the appropriate adjustment for this factor the average
X THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
of the monthly primarv' peak loads during 1940 was nearly 24 per cent higher
than in 1938, an average gain of about 12 per cent per year for the two years.
The total output of energy- in all systems for primary purposes in the
fiscal year was 7,838,000,000 kilowatt-hours, being 19 per cent greater than
the corresponding output of energy^ in the previous year and by far the largest
output of primar>^ energy delivered by the Commission in any one year. The
higher increase in energy consumption, as compared with the increase in peak
demand, reflects longer hours of use in war-time production.
In addition to meeting all primary demands the Commission utilized its
reserve capacity to produce an additional 1,850,000,000 kilowatt-hours for
secondan^ power purposes during the year. Much of this was employed in
war materials production.
Increased Mining Load
Again, as for several years past, a remarkable growth in load took place
in the northern Ontario mining fields. The average of the monthly peaks of
the total primary load of all districts was about 20 per cent higher than in
the previous year. In December 1940, the combined monthly primar\' peak
of the Northern Ontario Properties reached about 205,000 horsepower.
The accompanying tabulation gives for the months of October and
December, 1939 and 1940, the primary^ peak loads of the co-operative systems
and of the several districts of the Northern Ontario Properties. It also gives
similar data for the total primary and secondary loads.
'Additions to Generating, Transmission and Distributing Equipment
The multiplicity of demands for increased supphes of electricity through-
out the Province as a result of war activities, and the increased demand for
power for commercial, domestic and general industrial use, makes necessary-
not only the provision of additional power supplies but also the construction
of transmission lines and transformer stations for the wholesale delivery of
the power, and a great increase in distribution facilities throughout the
Province.
This heavy demand for additional electrical service during the past year
has necessitated an amount of engineering and administrative work that is
unprecedented in the Commission's history. The aim of the Commission
has been not merely to supply a demand that has materialized but to antici-
pate where possible demands for Hydro service for war purposes.
The extension to the Ear Falls development in northern Ontario refer-
red to in last year's report was completed in June 1940. The unit added,
first placed in service in January, has a rated capacity of 7,500 horsepower
under a head of 36 feet. The total installed capacity in this development is
now 17,500 horsepower.
To serve the growing demands of the Georgian Bay system, work was
commenced on the Big Eddy development on the Musquash river. This is
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION xi
situated about nine miles below Bala and four miles below the Ragged Rapids
generating station which was brought into service in 1938. It will have a
turbine capacity of 10,000 horsepower under a head of 36 feet and will con-
tain two units. It is expected to come into operation in November 1941.
In the Eastern Ontario system, plans were made for a developm.ent at
Barrett Chute on the Madawaska river. This development is situated about
five miles above Calabogie village. It will contain two units with a total
rated capacity of 56,000 horsepower under a head of 154 feet. To improve
the run-off on this river the Commission is constructing a storage dam at the
outlet of Bark lake about 67 miles up-stream from Barrett Chute. Both the
development and the storage works are expected to be available for service
in 1942.
Before the war the Commission planned and in part carried out a gen-
eral strengthening of its transmission lines and distribution networks.
Since the war started further improvements have been made in many areas.
In July 1940 a new 110,000- volt single-circuit line on steel towers between
St. Thomas and Windsor was placed in service. This line, which has a capac-
ity equal to the other two existing lines on double-circuit towers, has greatly
improved operating conditions for the western section of the Niagara system.
In the eastern section of the Province substantial progress was made on
the construction of a new 220,000-volt line which, when completed, will extend
from the eastern boundary of the Province, the Quebec border, to a new
transformer station being constructed at Burlington. At the end of Decem-
ber about 225 miles of towers and footings had been erected and 125 miles of
conductor had been strung.
The receiving transformer station is being designed for an ultimate
capacity of 450,000 kv-a. The initial installation will be two banks of three
25,000-kv-a single-phase transformers together with necessary equipment.
Other activities in connection with the Niagara system include the completion
of three large transformer stations at Toronto, Thorold, and near Simcoe.
Another transformer station is under construction at Hamilton and additional
transformer capacity has been installed at many other stations.
In the Georgian Bay system at the Hanover frequency-changer station an
additional unit of 6,750 kv-a was installed. It is operated in parallel with
the original 5,000-kv-a unit for the interchange of power with the Niagara
system.
In the Eastern Ontario system the capacity of the Ottawa transformer
station was increased; a new transformer station was constructed to supply
power to the National Research Council, and additional capacity provided
at many distributing stations.
In Northern Ontario more than 43 miles of transmission circuits were
erected and additional transformer capacity was installed at many stations
distributing power to the mines.
In rural Ontario the construction of about 1,400 miles of rural primary
line was authorized to serve applications from some 10,000 new rural con-
sumers.

Research Work
Since the last war an important contribution to the growth and progress
of this Dominion as a scientific and industrial state has been made by research
workers. Fortunately Canada has been farsighted in supporting this funda-
mental aid to industrial progress.
The Testing and Research Laboratory of the Commission is giving
valuable technical assistance to the Department of Munitions and Supply
and to the United Kingdom Technical Commission in connection with elec-
trical matters.
Capital Expenditure
Extensions to generating stations, transmission lines, rural distribution
networks, storage works, etc., during the year necessitated a capital expendi-
ture of $11,188,042.25 as compared with $9,136,803.86 in the previous year.
In the co-operative systems, apart from rural extensions, the chief capital
expenditures were made for important extensions and additions to trans-
mission lines and to transformer stations. In the Northern Ontario Proper-
ties, the chief capital expenditures made were for extensions to transmis-
sion lines and transformer stations feeding mining properties.

Efficient Utilization of Hydro Service
The Commission's programme of sales promotion was necessarily modi-
fied during the past year to meet the changed conditions imposed by the
war. A large number of factory inspections were made, and special engi-
neering reports prepared, to assist plants producing war materials to oiDerate
more efficiently. This free engineering advisory service on lighting, motive
power, and heat treatment, was welcomed and used to excellent advantage
by many industrial organizations throughout the Province.
While increasing attention was given to this industrial work, domestic
and rural problems were not overlooked. In the rural area, in particular,
every effort was made to foster the use of electricity on the farm in ways that
would release manpower and enable the farmer to produce in greater volume
at lower cost.

xiv TfllRTY-THlRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Financial Operating Rt-siilfs for 1 940
Increase in the use of power in industry, caused by the intensified war
effort, had a notable effect upon revenues of the Commission. Sales of
power direct to large industries increased the revenues of the Niagara and
other co-operative systems by some $2,2fX),CXX), notwithstanding that the
increased demand for primary power restricted the amount of energy avail-
able for sale as secondary power. The war effort also increased the power
demands of many municipalities as compared with the previous year, par-
ticularly during the first eleven months. In October 1940, the extension
of daylight-saving time lessened the increases in municipal loads and in
the consequent revenue derived by the Commission.
For all classes of service combined, the increase in revenue was more
than $4,750,0C0 or about 14.5 per cent for the four systems operated on behalf
of municipalities. The increase in exp>ense for power purchased, for opera-
tion, maintenance and administration and for interest, including exchange
premium, was less than 4 per cent. This made it possible for the Commission
to set aside an increased provision for reserves, particularly for the rate stabi-
lization funds. This action gives practical expression to the policy announced
early in the war, of anticipating and as far as possible eliminating drastic
changes in the interim rates for power during any period of post-war re-
adjustment. At the same time it facilitates financing essential war-time
construction.
The Northern Ontario Properties yielded an increase in revenue over
1939 figures of more than $80(J,000 or 19 per cent. As the increase in expense
for operating items and interest charges was only some $250,000, there is an
increased balance available for reserves.
Revenue of Commission
The revenue oi the Commission at interim rates from the municipal
utilities operating under cost contracts, from customers in rural F)Ower dis-
tricts and from other customers with whom on behalf of the municipalities
the Commission has special contracts, all within the Niagara, (icorgian Bay,
Eastern Ontario and Thunder Bay systems, aggregated $37,399,535.90. The
revenue of the Commission from customers served by the Northern Ontario
Properties, which are held and operated in trust for the Province, was
$5,0(56,193.82, making a total of $42,465,729.72.

* * *
In concluding this review of the 1940 activities of the Commission
reference should once again be made to the excellent co-operation the Com-
mission has received from the partner municipalities and all officials of the
local Hydro utilities. Without the whole-hearted support that has been
given, the Commission's task in meeting the power demands of the war
year of 1940 would have been much more difficult.
My colleagues, the Hon. William L. Houck and Mr. J. Albert Smith,
join with me in acknowledging the faithful and efficient service given by
the Commission's staff, many of whom have worked exceptionally long hours
to meet war-time emergencies. Our thanks are also extended to the Press
for its continued interest and support.
Respectfully submitted,
T. H. Hogg,

THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
OF
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
of Ontario
FOREWORD
and
Guide to the Report
THE Hydro-Elecinc Power Commission of Ontario administers a co-
operative municipal-ownership enterprise, supplying power throughout
the Province of Ontario. The Commission was created in 1906 by special
act of the Legislature and followed investigations by advisory commissions
appointed as a result of public agitation to conserve the water powers of
Ontario as a valuable asset of the people and to provide a more satisfactory
supply of low-cost powder in Southern Ontario. In 1907 The Power Com-
mission Act (T-Edward VH Ch. 19) was passed amplifying and extending
the Act of 1906 and this Act — modified by numerous arr ending acts which
now form part of the Revised Statutes of Ontario. 1937, Chap. 62 — con-
stitutes the authority under which the Commission operates.
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario consists of a Chairman
and two Commissioners, all of whom, are appointed by the Lieutenant-
Governor-in-Council to hold office during pleasure. One of the Commission-
ers must be a member of the Executive Council and tw-o may be members.
In 1909, work was comm.enced on a com.prehensive transmission system
and by the end of 1910 power was being supplied to several municipalities.
The Commission has now been supplying electrical energy for more than
thirty years and the Report contains diagrams depicting the growth of
the enterprise. During this period the costs of electricity to the consumer
have been substantially reduced and the finances of the enterprise have been
established on a secure foundation.
At the end of 1940 the Commission was serving 886 municipalities in
Ontario. This number included 26 cities, 104 towns, 304 villages and police
villages and 452 townships. With the exception of 14 suburban sections of
townships known as "voted areas", the townships and 119 of the smaller
villages are served as parts of 184 rural power districts.
Financial Features of Co-operative Systems
The basic principle governing the financial operations of the undertaking
is, that electrical service be given by the Commission to the municipalities
and by the municipalities to the ultimate consumers at cost. Cost includes
not only all operating and maintenance charges, interest on capital investment
and reserves for renewals or depreciation, for obsolescence and contingencies,
and for stabilization of rates, but also a reserve for sinking fund or capital
payments on debentures.
xxvi THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The undertaking from its inception has been entirely self-supporting and
no contributions have been made from general taxes except in connection with
service in rural power districts. In this case, the Province, in pursuance of
its long established policy of assisting agriculture and with the approval of the
urban citizens, assists extension of rural electrical service by a grant-in-aid of
the capital cost and in other ways as specified and detailed in the Report.
As the principle of "service at cost" is radically different from that ob-
taining in private organizations, where profit is the governing feature, it
naturally results in different and in some ways unique administrative features.
The undertaking as a whole involves two distinct phases of operations as
follows:
The First phase of operations is the provision of the electrical power —
either by generation or purchase — and its transformation, transmission and
delivery^ in wholesale quantities to individual municipal utihties, to large in-
dustrial consumers, and to rural power districts. This phase of the operations
is performed by The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario as trustee
for the municipalities acting collectively in groups or "systems," and the
financial statements relating to these collective activities of the municipalities
are presented in Section IX of the Report. Each system of municipalities, as
provided in The Power Commission Act, forms an independent financial unit"
and the accounts are therefore segregated and separately presented for each
system. In order, however, that there may be a comprehensive presentation
of the co-operative activities of the undertaking as a whole, there are pre-
sented, in addition, for the four main systems and miscellaneous co-operative
activities, a balance sheet of assets and liabilities, a statement of cost distri-
butions, a tabulation of fixed assets, and summary combined statements
respecting the various reserves.
The Second phase of operations is the retail distribution of electrical
energy to consumers within the limits of the areas served by the various
municipal utilities and rural power districts. In the case of rural power districts
which usually embrace portions of more than one township, The Hydro-
Electric Power Commission not only provides the power at wholesale, but also
- on behalf of the respective individual townships — attends to all physical and
financial operations connected with the distribution of energy at retail to the
consumers within the rural power districts. Summary financial statements
relating to the rural power districts are also presented in Section IX of the
Report, and a general report on their operation is given in Section III.
In the case of cities, towns, many villages and certain thickh- populated
areas of townships, retail distribution of electrical energy provided by the
Commission is in general conducted by individual local municipal utility
commissions under the general supervision of The Hydro-Electric Power
Commission of Ontario. The balance sheets, operating reports and statistical
data relating to the individual urban electrical utilities are presented in Section
X of the Report.
F^or the Northern Ontario Properties held and operated by the Commis-
sion in trust for the Province there are also presented in Section IX financial
statements including a balance sheet, an operating account, and statements
respecting reserves and capital expenditures.

Co operative Systems Operating
From time to time in accordance with provisions in The Power Commission
Act various groups of municipalities have been co-ordinated to form systems
for the purpose of obtaining power supplies from convenient sources. In some
cases these small systems grew until their transmission lines interlocked with
those of adjacent systems and it proved beneficial to consolidate the trans-
mission networks and the financial and administrative features. In the well
settled parts of the Province, known as Old Ontario, this process has now
reached a more stable condition and the municipalities of the southern part
of the Province are now combined in three systems: the Niagara system, the
Georgian Bay system and the Eastern Ontario system. One other system
of partnership municipalities is known as the Thunder Bay system.
The Niagara System is the largest and most important system. It em-
braces municipalities in all the territorx^ between Niagara Falls, Hamilton and
Toronto on the east and Windsor, Sarnia and Goderich on the west. It is
served with electrical energ\^ generated at plants on the Niagara river, supple-
mented with power transmitted from generating plants on the Ottawa river
and with power purchased from Quebec companies.
The Georgian Bay System comprises municipalities in that part of the
Province which surrounds the southern end of Georgian Bay and lies to the
north of the territory^ served by the Niagara system. It includes the districts
surrounding lake Simcoe and extends as far north as Huntsville in the Lake of
Bays district and south to Port Perr\-. Its power supplies are derived chiefly
from local water power developments.
The Eastern Ontario System serves all of Ontario east of the areas com-
prising the Georgian Bay and the Niagara systems. It includes the districts
of Central Ontario, St. Lawrence, Rideau, Ottawa and Madawaska; formerly
separate systems. Its power supplies are from local developments supple-
mented by purchases from other sources.
The Thunder Bay System comprises the cities of Port Arthur and Fort
William, adjacent rural sections, the village of Nipigon, and the mining district
of Longlac. Two developments on the Nipigon river supply power.
Northern Ontario Properties
In addition to its operations on behalf of the partner municipalities, the
Commission, under an agreement with the Province, holds and operates the
Northern Ontario Properties in trust for the Province. For the purposes of
financial administration these properties are treated as one unit. The
Northern Ontario Properties lie in the portion of the Province north of Lake
Nipissing and French River areas, exclusive of the territory served by the
Thunder Bay system. The principal areas in this vast territory at present
receiving service are the Xipissing District centering around the city of North
Bay on the shore of lake Nipissing: the Sudbury District comprising the city of
Sudbur\- and the adjacent mining area known as Sudbur\- Basin: the Abitibi

XXX THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
District comprising the territory served by 25-cycle power from the Abitibi
Canyon development, together with a small area in the southern portion of the
district of Sudbur\' in which mining properties are served with 60-cycle power;
the Patricia-St. Joseph District comprising the territor\' within transmission
distance of the Ear Falls development at the outlet of lac Seul on the English
river including the Red Lake mining area, and the territorv- immediately north
of lake St. Joseph in the territorial district of Patricia served with power from
a development at Rat Rapids on the Albany river. Included in the Northern
Ontario Properties are rural powder districts on Manitoulin island, and others
adjacent to the communities served in the various districts of Northern
Ontario.
The geographic boundaries of the various systems and districts are show^n
on the maps of transmission lines and stations at the back of the Report.
The power supplies for the systems and Northern Ontario districts are
listed in the first table of Section H of the Report on pages 8 and 9.
The Annual Report
The table of contents, pages xxi and xxii lists the matters dealt with in
the Report. At the end of the Report there is a comprehensive index. To
those not conversant with the Commission's Reports, the following notes will
be useful.
In Section II, pages 7 to 34, dealing with the operations of the systems,
are a number of diagrams showing graphically the monthly loads on the
several systems and districts. Tables are also presented showing the amounts
of power taken b}' the various municipalities during the past two years.
The rural distribution work of the Commission has proved of widespread
interest and special reference to this is made in Section III on pages 41 to 60.
In Sections V and \\ will be found information respecting progress of
work on new power developments and on transmission system extensions,
together with photographic illustrations.
About one-half of the Report is devoted to financial and other statistical
data which are presented in two sections IX and X already referred to above.
Frequent enquiries for the rates for service to consumers are received
by the Commission. For the urban municipalities served by the Commission
these are given in statement "E" starting on page 344. For the rural power
districts they are given in a table starting on page 52. Certain statistical
data resulting from the application of the rates in urban utilities are given
in statement "D". This statement is prefaced by a special introduction
starting on page 326.
In its Annual Reports the Commission aims to present a comprehensive
statement respecting the activities of the whole undertaking under its adminis-
tration. Explanatory statements are suitably placed throughout the Report.
The Commission receives many letters asking for general information respect-
ing its activities, as well as requests for specific information concerning certain
phases of its operations. In most cases the enquiries can satisfactorily be
answered by simply directing attention to information presented in the Annual
Report.

RIGHT-OF-WAY AND PROPERTY
THE increased scale of operations, closely associated with Canada's war
effort, resulted in a 35 per cent increase in right-of-way requirements,
largely in the industrialized areas of the Province.
Power Development Lands
A right-of-way 100 feet in width and about 4 miles long for a roadway
and transmission line extending from the Ragged Rapids development to the
Big Eddy development, both on the Musquash river, was acquired. Ad-
jacent to the Ragged Rapids plant the right-of-way was obtained from a
number of private owners, but for most of it the fee was acquired from the
Indian Branch of the Department of Mines and Resources, as the site for the
development is situated within the Gibson Indian Reserve. By agreement
with the Canadian Pacific Railway a siding at Bala was provided.
To provide better access to the Ragged Rapids and Big Eddy develop-
ments and to eliminate a hazardous highway crossing of the Canadian Pacific
Railway, the Commission joined with the town of Bala, the townships of
Wood and Medora and the railway company for the relocation of the highway.
In connection with the new power development at Barrett Chute on the
Madawaska river near Calabogie, right-of-way for 3 miles of roadway and
transmission line from the Black Donald highway was acquired. Sand and
gravel areas were also purchased and a siding at Calabogie was rehabilitated
and extended by agreement with the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.
Further claims respecting property abutting Chats lake were settled.
Transmission and Distribution Lines
Rights for 271 miles of the original steel transmission line erected in
1909 were renewed. A greatly increased main line construction programme
necessitated the acquisition of 5.613 easements, 1,051 crossing agreements
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 3
with other corporations, 1,358 tree trimming agreements, and settlement of
748 damage claims. The fee of approximately 50 miles of main transmission
line right-of-way was also acquired, involving 186 purchase agreements.
Transmission line rights of importance were acquired in the following
systems:
Niagara System — Urban development adjacent to several of the larger
centres made it necessary to purchase the fee of rights-of-way in order to
make permanent provision for essential transmission lines. These purchases
included property to complete a strip of over-all width of 200 feet extending
from Dundas transformer station southerly for 1.5 miles, and a strip of 100
feet of over-all width extending from the east limits of Kitchener through
the southerly portion of the city to the Canadian National Railways' main
line from Kitchener to Stratford.
A right-of-way was acquired for a 110,000- volt transmission line 109
miles long from St. Thomas transformer station to Essex transformer station.
Perpetual easements 100 feet wide were acquired for the easterly 103 miles,
and for the westerly 6 miles the fee of a strip of land adjacent to the existing
owned right-of-way was purchased to provide an over-all width of 158 feet.
An agreement with the Province of Ontario provided for the sale of
former radial railway lands extending from immediately west of the Humber
river to Mimico creek upon which was located the main circuit steel-tower
line from Niagara Falls. All lands lying south of the Canadian National
Railways were surrendered to provide a terminus and grade separation for
the Queen Elizabeth Way entering Toronto from the west. In order to
maintain the continuity of the important right-of-way entering the city
from the west, a strip of land 150 feet in width to the north of the Canadian
National Railways and extending easterly from Salisbury avenue to the
Humber w-as transferred to the Commission.
The remaining former radial railway right-of-way and lands lying be-
tween Mimico creek and Oakville were transferred to the Niagara system
and will be held in reserve until the Commission's requirements are deter-
mined.
A lease was negotiated with the Canadian National Railways for the
construction of a 110, 000- volt steel-tower transmission line from St. Clair
avenue northerly along the right-of-way of that railway to Fairbank junction,
and easterly to the new Fairbank transformer station on the northerly edge
of the Canadian National Railways belt line and immediately east of Danes-
bury avenue.
220,000-volt lines — A perpetual easement right-of-way 150 feet in
width was acquired from Baudet at the inter-provincial boundary at the
easterly extremity of the Province to a junction with the Gatineau lines in
Whitby township, a distance of approximately 270 miles. Certain revisions
to the fourth unused Gatineau line were required in order to bring the new
line to a point in Pickering township where the Beauharnois lines diverge to
cross the Metropolitan area of Toronto.
From this latter point, rights 150 feet in width are being acquired ex-
tending westerly to an intersection with the Canadian Pacific Railway main
line in Scarboro township. Commencing at the Canadian Pacific Railway
4 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
and extending westerly to Leaside junction, the fee of a strip 350 feet in
width is being acquired. Negotiations are be ng conducted for the acquisi-
tion of the fee of a strip 150 feet in width from Leaside junction to Leaside
transformer station. From Leaside junction westerly to Etobicoke creek
through Metropolitan Toronto a strip of minimum width of 350 feet is being
purchased so as to provide a permanent right-of-way to protect the present
and future projected needs of the Commission with respect to east and west
transmission line requirements.
Other lines of importance for which perpetual easement and clearing
rights were acquired are as follows: Decewsville to Rainham junction;
Rainham junction to Rainham distributing station; Rainham junction to
Jarvis; Lawrence avenue junction to DeHaviland; Bendale junction to Agin-
court; Lawrence avenue to York Mills; Sun Brick to East York; Kent to
Prince Albert junction; Hamilton to Windermere junction; Escarpment
junction to Smithville; Fairbank to Glencairn; Fairbank to Forest Hill;
Fairbank to York "C"; York "C" to York "A"; and Fairbank to Kodak
junction.
Georgian Bay System — Perpetual easement rights 66 feet in width and
rights to clear were acquired for a 110,000- volt wood-pole line from Ragged
Rapids to Nobel.
Eastern Ontario System — Perpetual easement rights were acquired
for a 110, COO- volt wood -pole transmission line extending from Chats Falls to
Federal junction, the centre line of which is spaced 100 feet from the existing
220,000-volt line of the Niagara system.
The fee of additional property was acquired near Ottawa from Federal
junction easterly to a point near Hawthorne, a distance of six miles; this
strip parallels an owned right-of-way, and will provide an over-all width of
225 feet. Negotiations are proceeding for the acquisition of the fee of a
66-foot strip extending from near Hawthorne northerly to the National
Research (Ottawa) transformer station intersecting the Canadian National
Railways right-of-way at Cyrville junction.
The right-of-way of the Canadian National Railways extending from
Ottawa to Hawkesbury was offered for sale and the opportunity was taken
to purchase that portion extending from Herdman Bridge to Cumberland.
The easterly end of the right-of-way extending from Cumberland to Cyrville
junction provided an excellent right-of-way for the tie-line from Lievre junc-
tion to Cyrville junction, and the westerly portion thereof is expected to be
of very considerable value as a ready means of entrance to the east limits
of Ottawa.
Perpetual easement rights for a right-of-way 66 feet in width and 56
miles long, from Frontenac transformer station near the north limits of
Kingston to Sidney transformer station near Trenton, were acquired for a
steel transmission line. The rights were extended westerly from the latter
point to the reinsulated line from Newcome junction to Oshawa transformer
station; this completes the 110,000-volt transmission line rights required for
the new supply of power to Oshawa transformer station.
Rights were acquired for a new 44.000-volt line from Cornwall trans-
former station to Howard Smith Paper Mills.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 5
Northern Ontario Properties- Perpetual easement rights were ac-
quired for transmission Hnes from Kirkland Lake transformer station to
Lake Shore Gold Mines in the Abitibi district, and from Couchenor-Willan
to McMarmac Gold Mines, and Uchi switching station to Jason Gold Mines,
in the Patricia-St. Joseph district.
Station Sites
Some of the more important station sites acquired included the following :
Burlington transformer station, immediately east of the town line be-
tween East Flamboro and Nelson townships and adjoining the Canadian
National Railways' main line to the north. This site contains an area of
approximately 80 acres, and includes a number of small holdings with
dwellings which must be removed. Arrangements were made with the
Canadian National Railways for a private siding.
At Fairbank a large area was acquired for a transformer station and for
future expansion; a number of buildings on the site were removed. Arrange-
ments for a siding were made with the Canadian National Railways.
In Oshawa a transformer station site is being acquired.
A site was purchased for a transformer station at the northwest corner
of Brownleigh avenue and Centre street, Crowland township, adjacent to the
eastern limits of the city of Welland and adjoining the Atlas Steels Limited
property.
In Sudbury, at the corner of Brebeuf and Kathleen streets, a transformer
station site was acquired.
Other important sites for switching, distribution or rural stations were
acquired at the following places:
East York, Bartonville, Perth, Stayner, Thornhill, Port Hope, DeHavil-
land, Mountain View Airport, Sharon, Wasaga Beach, Agincourt, Bolton,
Brantford Airport, and Rainham.
Of agreements totalling 7,719 negotiated for rights on privately-owned
properties, only six owners appealed to the valuator appointed under The
Power Commission Act.
Sales and Leases
The policy of disposing of excess lands was continued and many proper-
ties were sold.
Lands owned by the Commission in connection with power develop-
ments, and also lands comprising several hundred miles of right-of-way not
wholly occupied by the Commission's equipment, were leased wherever pos-
sible to adjoining property owners subject to joint use thereof. Practically
all of the residences owned by the Commission were occupied under lease.
A substantial increase in the number of revenue-bearing leases was effected.
THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Surveys
In connection with the purchase of station sites, transmission hne right-
of-way, and miscellaneous properties, the renewal of rights, the acquisition
of easements and crossing agreements, the settlement of damage claims and
other matters as referred to in the foregoing summary, a large number of
surveys were made.
Among the more important surveys were those made in connection with
the renewal of the rights on 200 miles of the original 270 miles of line con-
structed in 1909; the purchase of 40 miles of lands for transmission line
entrances to important urban areas; the 109 miles of right-of-way between
the St. Thomas and Essex transformer stations; the 270 miles of right-of-way
from the east Provincial boundary at Baudet to Whitby township, and the
power development, transmission line, and roadway lands in connection with
the Big Eddy and Ragged Rapids developments of the Georgian Bay system.
Records
The following is a brief summary of the records made:
(1) All current deeds, including plans attached, were copied in the title
record books, and title record plans brought up to date.
(2) Plans were indexed for all purchases, sales, easements, leases, licences of
occupation, crossings and title records.
(3) The following were indexed: 216 deeds of land; 773 trimming rights
and 3,189 transmission line easements.
Taxes
Assessments covering Commission-owned properties were received from
265 municipalities. Where assessments were not in conformity with the
provisions of The Power Commission Act, appeals were made, resulting
generally in a reduction of assessment and taxes.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION
SECTION II
OPERATION OF THE SYSTEMS
NO special operating difficulties were encountered during the year ; service
interruptions were comparatively few, and no major failure of equip-
ment occurred. Precipitation on most of the watersheds supplying the
Commission's generating stations was subnormal during the early part of the
year, but during the spring run-off storage basins were filled and water con-
ditions at the close of the year were satisfactory.
Load Conditions
The total output from all generated and purchased sources amounted
to 9,686,402,421 kilowatt-hours. This was the largest output on record,
and exceeded that of the previous fiscal year by 13.9 per cent. The October
peak load, including primary and secondary power, was 1,954,069 horse-
power, slightly lower than the October, 1939, peak.
The output for primary power purposes also exceeded all previous
records. It amounted to 7,837,727,173 kilowatt-hours, an increase of 19.2
per cent. The monthly primiary peak loads, without exception, exceeded
all recorded maxima for corresponding months in any year. Compared with
the previous year the increase in primary peak loads during the first eleven
months of the year was in the order of 14 per cent, but as a result of day-
light-saving time being continued beyond September, the October primary
peak, amounting to 1,783,962 horsepower, was only 6.9 per cent greater than
the October, 1939, peak.
The greater portion of the current year's increase in primary load was
centred in the Niagara system, and arose in a large measure from the greater
demands of the electro-metallurgical and electro-chemical industries in the
production of war material. Numerous other plants manufacturing war
material also contributed to the year's growth, as did the greater than normal
use of electricity in the commercial and domestic fields occasioned by the
war effort. Both the Georgian Bay and Eastern Ontario systems recorded
substantial increases in load, a considerable portion being directly attribut-
able to the production of war material. In the Northern Ontario Properties

* Because the peak loads on the various generating plants and purchased power sources usually occur
at different times, the sum of the individual peak loads would not represent the sum of the peak loads on
the s\-stems. These, in the case of each system, must relate to the maximum load occurring at any one
time. Consequently, the column headed "Peak load' is not totalled.

CAUTION: The figures for "Maximum normal plant capacity" reflect the capacity of the
various plants under the most favourable operating conditions which can reasonably be consid-
ered as normal, taking into consideration turbine capacity as well as generator capacity, and also
the net operating head and available water supply.
Owing, among other things, to changes in generating equipment due to wear and tear or
the replacement of parts, also to changes in limitations governing water levels and effective net
heads, the maximum normal plant capacity is not a fixed quantity but is one which must be
revised from time to time.
It is particularly important to bear in mind that the column headed "Maximum normal
plant capacity" cannot be taken as an indication of the dependable capacity of the various plants :
in some cases it is, but in many cases it is not. Chief among the factors which govern the
maximum dependable capacity of an hydraulic power plant and which are not reflected in
column headed "Maximum normal plant capacity" are abnormal variations in water supply
and operating limitations encountered when plants are so situated on a given stream as to be
affected bv one another.

THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
the substantial growth of recent years has continued, the total primary peak
load rising from 168,000 horsepower in October, 1939, to 202,000 horse-
power in October, 1940, an increase of 20.1 per cent, which was about the
average increase for the year.
Details regarding the load of each of the co-operative systems and of
the several districts of the Northern Ontario Properties are given in the load
graphs in this section of the Report.

Maintenance
All lines, stations and equipment were regularly inspected and main-
tained in efficient operating condition. Except where special emergencies
demanded immediate attention, this work was carried out in accordance
with regular schedules undertaken to prevent failures of equipment and
service interruptions. The thorough and successful nature of the inspection
and preventive maintenance work performed is indicated by the absence
of serious failures of equipment. Such damage as was experienced from
lightning, sleet and wind was promptly repaired, and a rapidly increasing
demand for power was met with few interruptions to service.

Forestry
The Forestry division continued its regular transmission and rural-line
clearing operations to protect the Commission's lines, equipment and service
from tree interference.
Reforestation was continued, but confined to replacement plantings on
non-revenue producing lands in the Niagara system.
The year's operations involved treatment of 78,300 trees and 1,545 pole
spans of underbrush spread over 3,313 miles of power transmission, telephone
and rural distribution lines.
Tree clearance was also obtained for approximately 197 miles of line
in connection with the construction of new transmission and rural lines and
the rehabilitation of certain existing lines. This work necessitated the treat-
ment of 8,400 trees and 107 pole spans of underbrush.
Line-clearing operations were performed for fifteen municipalities.
This work involved treatment of 3,800 trees spread over 58 miles of local
primary and secondary lines.
NIAGARA SYSTEM
The total average output of energy on the Niagara system reached the
highest level in its history. It exceeded the output in the previous year by
18.1 per cent. Approximately 79 per cent of the total output was supplied
for primary power services. Compared with the previous year the average
output for primary power purposes was 19.6 per cent greater. In every
month the primary peak demand exceeded that of the corresponding month
of the previous year. During the first eleven months of the year this increase
was of the order of 15 per cent, but in October, when municipal demands were
curtailed by the extension of daylight-saving time, the increase dropped to
4.8 per cent.
Capacity in excess of that required for primary services was used to
produce approximately 1,540,000,000 kilowatt-hours for delivery to the
secondary power market. This represented about 21 per cent of the total
energy output.
Operation of the transmission lines was very favourable throughout the
year. Interruptions to service caused by lightning, sleet and gales were
relatively few, and little damage was done to lines or equipment. On the
220,000-volt lines supplying power from Eastern sources there was only one
complete interruption during the year.
In general, the Niagara river plants, together with the available supply
from Eastern power sources, have been operated to obtain the greatest pos-
sible amount of power and energy. Practically no trouble was experienced
from ice conditions in the Niagara river during the winter. On one occasion.
12 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
January 14, a large ice jam formed in the lower river which resulted in a
reduction in the output of the Ontario Power plant of some 25,000 horsepower
for the greater part of one day. Assistance was given to the Niagara Hudson
Power Corporation between January 19 and 23, when the output of the
Schoelkopf plant was reduced by ice at the intake.
The output of the two units at the Canadian Niagara Power Company's
plant reserved for the Commission's use was available to the Niagara system
throughout the year. There were no deficiencies in this supply, and all the
power and energy to which the Commission was entitled under the terms of
the power agreement was delivered.
Except for No. 2 unit, which was out of service for four months for
complete overhaul, all units at the Chats Falls generating station were avail-
able for operation throughout the year. During the spring run-off, when
the Ottawa river flow was in excess of that required to generate full power
delivery under the terms of the Ottawa Valley Power Company agreement,
the Chats Falls generating station was operated to a maximum in order to
utilize as much of the river flow as possible. Natural flow conditions on the
Ottawa river drainage basin were below normal during the winter of 1939-40,
and although the freshet peaks did not approach those of a normal year,
river flow and storage conditions at the close of the year were above average.
The frequency-changer set at Chats Falls generating station was avail-
able as a reserve source of supply for the Eastern Ontario system during the
year. On a few occasions it assisted in carrying the Eastern Ontario sys-
tem's primary peak load. In November, 1939, it was used extensively to
transfer power for secondary use on the Eastern Ontario system, and for
the same purpose occasionally thereafter until August 3, 1940, when the set
was operated at part capacity to supply a portion of the export load at
Massena, New^ York.
The DeCew Falls generating station operated to use all the water avail-
able during the year. On August 27, diversion from the Welland canal was
increased by 330 cubic feet per second under a supplemental lease with the
Department of Transport. Load demands on the Dominion Power and
Transmission division, in excess of the capacity available at DeCew Falls
generating station, were met by the frequency-changer set at Niagara Falls.
This set was available throughout the year except during two short periods
in June and August when it was disabled. During these periods the capacity
of the Dominion Power and Transmission division was augmented by a
supply of power from a generating station of the Department of Transport
on the Welland ship canal.
The Hamilton steam station was available as a limited standby reserve
for the Dominion Power and Transmission division. No assistance was
required from this station during the year. The boiler plant was used for
generation of steam for commercial purposes up to the end of March.

On November 1, 1939, an additional 60,000 horsepower became available
to the Niagara system from the Gatineau Power Company, completing full
delivery under the terms of the power agreement with this Company. By
arrangement with the Maclaren-Quebec Power Company the increment of
20,000 horsepower due November 1, 1940, was taken on July 11, at 60 cycles,
increasing the total delivery from this Company to 80,000 horsepower.

Note: The yearly peak demands of the individual mimicipal Hydro utiUties and also of
the rural power districts do not all occur during the same month of the year nor, for any given
municipality or mral power district, do they always occur in the same month in successive years;
in nearly all cases however the yearly peak occurs during the second half of the calendar year.
For this reason a comparison of the peaks occurring during the second half of the year as shown
in the tables of this Section shows most satisfactorily the general trend of the local loads.

GEORGIAN BAY SYSTEM
The total energy output of the Georgian Bay system exceeded that of
the previous year by 14.6 per cent. There was, however, practically no
growth in peak load until the month of October when a munition plant,
which went into production about the middle of September, gradually in-
creased its demand until by the end of the year about 4,000 horsepower, of
an ultimate demand of 5,000 horsepower, was being taken. The October
peak load was 42,217 horsepower, exceeding all previous records and exceed-
ing that of October, 1939, by 21.5 per cent. Lack of peak growth during the
summer months, when demands on this system are usually at a maximum,
indicates the saving that can be made in bulk power supply by the adoption
of daylight-saving time in parts of the area served. On the Georgian Bay
system, in the summer of 1940, twelve municipalities adopted daylight-saving
time. This advanced the time of the municipal peaks in those communities

one hour, with the result that although there was a substantial growth in the
individual municipal loads during the summer, the diversity caused by-
changing the times of the peak loads in those twelve municipalities was suf-
ficient to permit serving the whole system with practically no increase in
system load.
From about the first of December, 1939, until the commencement of the
spring run-oflf in April, 1940, river flows on this system were considerably
below normal, necessitating a comparatively large transfer of power from
the Niagara system during this period. All storage reservoirs were filled
early in June, and, with heavy rainfall in August and September, stream flow
conditions at the end of the year were well above normal. During the year
21,968.000 kilowatt-hours were transferred to this system from the Niagara
system, representing about 15 per cent of the total Georgian Bay system
requirements.
Assistance was given the Orillia Water, Light and Power Commission
to the extent of 1.850,000 kilowatt-hours, chiefly during the period of Novem-
ber 28. 1939, to April 2, 1940, because of low water conditions at their plants.
There were no serious interruptions of power service during the year.
In order to provide additional capacity for the Georgian Bay system,
a second frequency-changer set of 7.500 horsepower capacity was installed
at Hanover and placed in service on June 19, 1940.

EASTERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
The primary load on the Eastern Ontario system, which started to show
a substantial increase near the close of the previous year, continued at a
high rate of increase throughout the current year. The primary peak oc-
curred in September, and amounted to 155,174 horsepower. It exceeded all
recorded maxima and was 9.3 per cent greater than the primary peak of the
previous year. The extension of daylight-saving time to the winter months
did not produce any appreciable saving on the peak load of this system. The
total primary energy, which amounted to 562,238,265 kilowatt-hours, re-
presented an increase of 13.5 per cent over the previous year.
Secondary energy, amounting to a total of 77,251,800 kilowatt-hours,
was delivered to the steam generator at the Howard Smith Paper Mills
between November 1, 1939, and August 3, 1940, when this delivery was
discontinued in order to provide transmission facilities for the supply of
40,000 horsepower, via Cornwall, to the Aluminum Company of America at
Massena, New York. Of the above amount 60,700,000 kilowatt-hours were
supplied direct from the Eastern Ontario system generating and purchase
sources, and the balance by transfer from the Niagara system. In addition,
a small amount of secondary energy was supplied to the Aluminum Company
of Canada at Kingston. Following August 3, to the end of the fiscal year,
24 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
such surplus energy as was available on the Eastern Ontario system, amount-
ing in all to approximately 7,200,000 kilowatt-hours, was in effect transferred
to the Niagara system for disposal in the secondary power market of that
system.
The system's power resources, including generating capacity and power
purchased under contract, were in general sufficient to meet all primary
demands. However, on a few occasions in September and October it was
necessary to call on the Niagara system for assistance to meet the system's
primary peak demand, and on one occasion, January 17, it was necessary to
call for the operation of the frequency-changer station at Chats Falls in order
to augment the Central Ontario district generating sources when trouble
developed on the Kingston-Belleville tie line.
There were no serious interruptions to service of any customer on this
system during the year.
Stream flow conditions on the rivers in the Eastern Ontario system
were considerably below normal up to the spring run-off due to the lack of
the usual amount of precipitation in the fall of 1939. The spring break-up
came later than usual, and the run-off during the freshet period was less
than in a normal year. However, precipitation following the freshet period
averaged well above the normal expectancy, and storage reserves were con-
served against anticipated heavier power demand in the fall and winter.
Valuable assistance was rendered at times during the year to the local
systems of the Rideau Power Company, corporation of Fenelon Fals, Camp-
bellford Water and Light Commission and the municipality of Renfrew,
when the output of their own generating facilities was restricted by conditions
beyond their control.
During the year new transmission lines were placed in service to safe-
guard present supplies, and provide service for new customers. On Novem-
ber 3, 1939, a 44,000-volt wood-pole line of approximately 2.5 miles in length,
providing a second circuit to the Howard Smith Paper Mills from Cornwall
transformer station, was placed in service. A 110,000- volt wood-pole line
between Ottawa transformer station and Chats Falls generating station, of
approximately 30 miles in length, was placed in service on March 27, 1940.
This line now makes the full capacity of the Chats Falls frequency-changer
station directly available to Ottawa and the eastern portion of the Eastern
Ontario system. On February 25, 1940, a new 110,000- volt line was made
available to serve the Aluminum Company of Canada's new plant at King-
ston from Frontenac transformer station.
On August 3, 1940, a new 110,000- volt wood-pole line of approximately
20 miles in length, extending from the Masson generating station of the
Maclaren-Quebec Power Company to Federal junction near Ottawa, was
placed in service. This line, together with the transmission facilities of the
Maclaren-Quebec Power Company, provides a direct supply of 60-cycle
power to the Eastern Ontario system from the High Falls plant of the
Maclaren-Quebec Power Company. Provisions under the 25-cycle contract
supply to the Niagara system permits the taking of a part of this supply at
60 cycles whenever the Commission so desires. Since August 3, these facili-
ties have been used by the Niagara system to supply a portion of the 40,000
horsepower exported to the Aluminum Company of America at Massena,
New York.

was, therefore, limited to an average weekly withdrawal of 8,400 cubic feet
per second. As the lake level continued to recede, withdrawal was further
reduced late in January, 1940, and since February 5, has been limited to
that required for primary load purposes. Consequently there has been a
comparatively small amount of energy available this year for the use of the
paper mills in the electrical generation of steam. Arrangements, similar to
those existing in 1939, were continued during 1940, whereby the paper mills
under the control of the Abitibi Power and Paper Company were permitted
to obtain secondary power from the Kaministiquia Power Company, a sub-
sidiary of the Abitibi Power and Paper Company, through the Commission's
transformers and over the Commission's transmission circuits. After Feb-
ruary 1, however, little use was made of these facilities.
The demand for primary power on the Thunder Bay system has, on
the average, been 15 per cent greater than in the previous year. However,
the primary peak demand was slightly less, falling from 98,934 horsepower
in the previous year to 97,855 horsepower. This was due chiefly to the sea-
sonal demand of the grain elevators at Port Arthur and Fort William being
lower than usual.
Power service to all customers in this system was well maintained. All
generating and transformer stations, and all of the transmission lines have
functioned reliably and satisfactorily.
The precipitation on the watershed supplying the Nipigon river plants
was 16.94 inches, which is much below average. The elevation of lake Nipi-
gon on October 31, was 849.33 as compared with 850.94 for the same time
last year.

consumption, however, was 7.3 per cent greater. Precipitation on the water-
shed of the plants supplying the Nipissing district was below normal most
of the year, and was even insufficient to fill all storage basins during the
spring run-off in April and May. Consequently, from the commencement
of the year to April and, also, in July and August, it was necessary to transfer
to the district large quantities of power from Crystal Falls generating station in
the Sudbury district. Water conditions at the close of the year were satis-
factory.
Manitoulin District
Operating conditions were normal on the Manitoulin district. The
peak demand of the district rose from 273 horsepower in October, 1939, to
330 horsepower in October, 1940, due largely to the extension of rural service.
Sudbury District
The maximum 20-minute peak on the Sudbury district was 22,707

siderable portion of this increase resulted from supplying about 2.000 horse-
power of temporary power to the Huronian Company in January. February
and March, when the Company was short of water at its own plants. Energy
consumption during the year exceeded that of the previous year by 4.7 per
cent.

Precipitation was sub-normal on the Wanapitei and Sturgeon river
watersheds during the early part of the year. However, storage basins
supplying the Sudbury district were completely filled in June following the
spring run-off, and river flows for the remainder of the year were maintained
satisfactorily.
On March 31, the voltage of the Crystal Falls-Coniston tie line was
raised from 22,000 to 110,000 volts following the installation of 8,000-kv-a
transformers at both the Crystal Falls and Coniston generating stations.
The tie line was re-insulated last year for the higher voltage. This change
permits the transfer of the full capacity of Crystal Falls generating station
to Coniston, which at 22,000 volts was not heretofore practicable.
Abitibi District
Output of the Abitibi Canyon generating station, as governed by flow
and storage conditions on the Abitibi river, was at all times adequate to meet
the primary demand in the Abitibi district. The phenomenal growth

experienced in this district for the past several years continued, the primary
peak rising from 130,968 horsepower in October, 1939, to 164,879 horsepower
in October, 1940, a gain of 25.9 per cent. The average primary load was
24.6 per cent above that of the previous year.
32 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Precipitation in the watershed supplying the Abitibi Canyon generating
station was subnormal during the first half of the year, and it became neces-
sary late in November to conserve water storage by curtailing the second-
ary energy supply to the Smooth Rock Falls station of the Abitibi Power
and Paper Company for the electrical generation of steam. Further cur-
tailment of this supply, without curtailing mill production, was arranged
early in February by the part-time transfer of certain quantities of power
to the Smooth Rock Falls station from the Island Falls generating station
of the Abitibi Electrical Development Company. On April 23, with the
commencement of the spring run-off, these measures were discontinued as
the output of the Abitibi Canyon generating station was then adequate to
meet all primary and secondary power demands. All storage basins were
filled early in June, and water conditions in this district were satisfactory
during the remainder of the year.
No special difficulties were encountered in the operation of this district
during the year. The forebay boom at the Abitibi Canyon generating sta-
tion broke loose, due to shore ice, and was lost on May 13. It was replaced
by a specially designed boom on July 4.
Through the year there were no serious interruptions to customers'
services. High-tension oil switches, with suitable relays, which were placed
in service at the Timmins transformer station in August, have tended to
reduce the number of automatic line outages caused by lightning south of
Timmins.
Patricia-St. Joseph District
The load trend of the Patricia-St. Joseph district was upward during
the year. The peak rose from 11,792 horsepower in the previous year to
14,209 horsepower, an increase of 20.5 per cent. Energy consumption in the
district was up 31.5 per cent.
To provide for the rapidly increasing load, the capacity available for
the Patricia-St. Joseph district was increased early in January, when a third
unit was placed in service at the Ear Falls generating station. In general
the Ear Falls and Rat Rapids generating stations were operated in parallel
throughout the year. Late in the summer, part of the load formerly carried
on the Rat Rapids generating station was transferred to the Ear Falls gen-
erating station, so that by increasing outflow from lac Seul through this
station the level of the English river below Ear Falls could be raised to im-
prove navigation. This transfer of load also reduced the draw-down of the
elevation of lake St. Joseph, and maintained more efficient operating condi-
tions for the Rat Rapids plant. Towards the end of the year, the outflow
from lac Seul was further increased at the request of the Lake-of-the- Woods
Control Board, and the majority of the load of the Patricia-St. Joseph dis-
trict was then carried by the Ear Falls generating station. Precipitation in
the watersheds supplying this district has been below normal, with the result

SECTION III
MUNICIPAL WORK
THE Commission acts in an advisory capacity to the municipalities with
which it has contracts, and assists the municipal officials to purchase,
construct or extend distribution systems. As provided under The Power
Commission Act, all rate adjustments are approved by the Commission,
therefore, a study of the operating conditions of all utilities is made annually
and adjustments recommended.
In rural power districts, the Commission on behalf of the township cor-
porations operates the rural power systems and distributes electrical energy
to the customers of the respective corporations in all such rural power districts.
NIAGARA SYSTEM
Under the terms of contracts entered into during the fiscal year 1938
the Commission took delivery of the following additional amounts of power
from:
Horsepower
Gatineau Power Company and Gatineau Transmission Com-
pany 60,000
Maclaren-Quebec Power Company and The James Maclaren
Company Limited 20,000
Total additional power taken 80,000
The municipal load supplied showed an increase of 9.2 per cent in urban
municipalities and 11.3 per cent in rural power districts.
Engineering Assistance to Municipalities
General engineering assistance was given to nearly all municipalities of
the Niagara system respecting the operation and management of their local
Hydro utihties.
Certain municipalities received special engineering advice and assistance
respecting matters which are more fully referred to below:
36 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Agincourt — Increased load in the police village of Agincourt and in
the Scarboro rural power district required a new substation at Agincourt.
Aylmer — The distribution system on the main street was rebuilt and
enlarged; this involved the removal of the poles and the installation of
modern street lighting.
Bolton — To provide for increasing loads in Bolton and the surrounding
district, formerly fed from Kleinburg, a distribution station was constructed
near the south limits of the village.
East York — ^Two distributing stations, numbers 1 and 3, were put into
service April 27 to supply power formerly received through the Toronto
Hydro-Electric System. The office building is being enlarged.
Etobicoke Township — A new distributing station in the Kingsway
district was put into service on June 14, to relieve overloading of other
stations in the township.
Forest Hill — On April 30 the work of enlarging Forest Hill station
was completed and all power requirements of the Village supplied from this
station, thus terminating the arrangements for a supply from the Toronto
Hydro-Electric System.
Grimsby — The work of changing over the distribution system for 25-
cycle operation was started and it is expected the conversion will be com-
pleted in 1941. A new substation of 1,500-kv-a capacity was erected for
serving Grimsby and the adjacent rural power district.
Hamilton — Owing to a great industrial expansion, additional high-
tension station facilities, consisting of two 25,000-kv-a transformers together
with the required low-tension feeders were installed. Low- tension tie lines
giving duplicate service to existing substation facilities were also constructed.
Ingersoll — The distribution system was changed from 2,300 volts delta
to 4,000- volt grounded wye system; this involved changes and an increase
in capacity in the step-down station receiving 26,400-volt power.
Kitchener — Following a study of present and future load requirements,
a substantial increase in the Kitchener substation capacity was undertaken.
The transformers at substation No. 1 are being replaced with modern equip-
ment; the capacity of substation No. 3 is being doubled, and two new unit-
type substations are being designed and will be installed early in 1941.
All transformers are similar, having a normal rating of 3,000 kv-a, or
3,750 kv-a under forced-air cooling. The primary voltage is 13,200 and the
secondary 2,300 star connected.
London — An additional 3,000 feet of 13,200-volt cable and a new
1,500-kv-a outdoor substation was installed in the east-end industrial section.
North York Township^To take care of the normal growth of this
municipality, as well as a war industry, a new station was put into service.
St. Catharines — Practically all domestic and commercial-lighting cus-
tomers served by the Lincoln Electric Light and Power Company, Limited,
are now served from the 25-cycle system and a large portion of the 66-2/3-
cycle distribution system was dismantled.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 37
St. Thomas The main bus in the St. Catharines street substation was
rebuilt with heavier conductor with an emergency bus added as well as dis-
connecting switches on each side on the feeder breakers. Ground relays are
to be installed on the two incoming 13,200-volt feeders to operate in con-
junction with the 13,2(X)-volt reactor at the St. Thomas transformer station.
Scarboro Township To improve voltage conditions in the south-
westerly section of the township and to relieve the load on the main Scarboro
stations, a new 1,500-kv-a station was put into service.
Smithville During the year this police village entered into a cost
contract with the Commission for a 25-cycle supply. The necessary changes
in the distribution system and customers' equipment were made and the
municipality is now operating on 25 cycles from a new substation.
Tillsonburg — The substation was rehabilitated and modern equipment
installed. At the same time provision was made to receive 26,4()0-volt
supply, as the Woodstock high-tension station supply feeder voltage will be
changed during the coming year from 13,200 to 26,4()0 volts.
Windsor — A 26, 400- volt tie line of 4/0 copper was completed between
No. 1 substation Windsor and No. 1 substation Walkerville. This completes
an alternative 26,400-volt feed to all the substations in Windsor. Work
was commenced on a new 26,400-volt, 4/0 copper feeder from No. 3 sub-
station to Sandwich substation, where the wooden switch structure is being
replaced by a modern steel structure.
Woodstock — At the Woodstock high-tension station preparations were
made for a change in the supply feeder voltage from 13,200 to 26,400 volts.
GEORGIAN BAY SYSTEM
The total increase in average load sold over the previous year was
10.5 per cent, although the highest twenty-minute peak established was
only 5 per cent greater than that of 1939. This variation is due to the
adoption and continuation of daylight-saving time in several towns on the
system. Otherwise, the increase in the peak load would possibly have been
greater than that of the total load sold.
No change occurred in the number of urban municipalities, or rural
power districts served by the system during the year, the total being sixty-
four of the former, and forty-eight of the latter. The average load sold
increased by 9.4 per cent to urban municipalities, by 17.4 per cent in the
rural power districts, and by 10.7 per cent for system customers. War
industries were responsible for a large increase established near the end of
the year by system customers.
General engineering advice and assistance was given to all urban
municipalities on the Georgian Bay system in connection with the operation
of local distribution systems. Certain municipalities received special en-
gineering advice and assistance regarding matters referred to below.
38 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Alliston Estimates were submitted for an improved street lighting
system in the business section.
Camp Borden — A large portion of the distribution system was recon-
structed and the voltage changed from 2,200 to 4,000. The substation
capacity was increased by the installation of a new bank of transformers.
Uxbridge — New electrically driven pumping units for domestic supply
and fire purposes, with gasoline auxiliary were installed in connection with
a new water works system.
EASTERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
The power sold on the Eastern Ontario system showed a sharp increase
in 1940, principally due to munitions load or to industries directly affected
by war conditions, and with a few exceptions the load increased in all munici-
palities and rural power districts.
The total amount of power delivered to urban municipalities and rural
districts amounted to 117,795 horsepower in 1940, an increase of 8.8 per cent.
The Eastern Ontario system is now taking all the power available from
the Commission's generating stations on this system and is also taking all
the 60-cycle power provided under the Commission's contract with the
Gatineau Power Company. A new generating station is now under con-
struction on the Madawaska river, and for immediate future requirements
the system can obtain a supply of power from the Niagara system through
the frequency-changer at Chats Falls.
General engineering assistance was given to nearly all municipalities on
the Eastern Ontario system in connection with the operation and manage-
ment of their local Hydro utilities.
Certain municipalities received special engineering advice and assistance
with regard to matters detailed below.
Belleville — The city is preparing to add 1,500 kv-a in transformer
capacity to its substation.
Iroquois — The village has entered into a cost contract with the Com-
mission and commenced to take power on February 10, 1940, from a new
substation in the village.
Kingston — Growth in load due to added industries in and adjacent to
the city will require a new substation.
National Research Council — To give service to the new laboratory
of the National Research Council, near Ottawa, the Commission has con-
structed a 110,000- volt line and a new substation.
Peterborough — Extensive changes in the distribution system have been
undertaken. A large munition load will be served direct from the high-
tension lines.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 39
THUNDER BAY SYSTEM
Three urban and two rural areas are served by the Thunder Bay system,
viz: the cities of Port Arthur and Fort WilHam, and Nipigon village; and
the Thunder Bay and Nipigon rural power districts. Large industrial supply
is given mostly to pulp and paper mills, terminal grain elevators, and mines
in the Sturgeon river and Longlac districts west of lake Nipigon in which
ten producing gold mines are now served. Although the power loads of the
terminal grain elevators have suffered some curtailment on account of war
conditions, the demands of the pulp and paper industry were greatly in-
creased, which, together with a considerable growth in the mining load as
well as in that of the urban and rural districts, has created a net increase
for the total load sold of 13.8 per cent over 1939. The municipal load shows
an increase of 8.5 per cent ; the rural load 32.5 per cent and the mining load
6.9 per cent. One pulp mill, which was idle for the greater part of the
previous year, was again placed in operation, and one of the large pulp and
paper mills increased its load by 14.6 per cent.
Due to low precipitation in the fall of 1939, and the winter of 1940, and
reduced flow on the Nipigon river, the power supplied on an "at-will" basis
for electric steam generation at pulp and paper mills was curtailed, resulting
in a loss of revenue from this class of service. However, the general load
increase in all other classes of customers served, except that of the grain
trade, resulted in a gross revenue gain of 5.6 per cent.
Engineering assistance and advice relative to the operation of the local
distribution systems was given to the cities of Fort William and Port Arthur,
also to Nipigon township. All of the ten mining properties served were also
visited periodically for the purpose of assisting in the power supply problems
of these customers.
NORTHERN ONTARIO PROPERTIES
The Northern Ontario Properties comprise the generating plants and
transmission lines in the areas of northern Ontario lying north and west of,
and including Sudbury and North Bay between the Quebec and Manitoba
boundaries, excluding the territory served by the Thunder Bay system.
These properties are held in trust and operated by the Commission on behalf
of the Province. Operations in this territory involve power supply to fifty-
one mining properties, two cities, four towns and ten villages, hamlets and
mining townsites, as well as power supply to the Canada Northern Power
Corporation, which operates in the northern portion of the same area and in
portions of the province of Quebec adjacent to the Ontario boundary.
As in previous years, since the Commission first entered this field in
1929 there was, during 1940, large expansion in load growth, the increase
in load sold being 31,000 horsepower or approximately 20 per cent.
All of the mining properties served, as well as the municipal and townsite
distribution systems, were visited periodically for the purpose of rendering
engineering assistance on power supply problems. Similar assistance was
also given to a number of mines in the prospect stage.
40 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Nipissing District
This district includes the area adjacent to the city of North Bay, the
town of Powassan and the village of Callander, together with the North Bay
and Powassan rural power districts. Three generating plants on the South
river, and the Crystal Falls development on the Sturgeon river, form the
sources of power supply. The increase in load sold over the previous year
was 5.4 per cent. During the year the distribution system in the city of
North Bay was sold to the Corporation, after enabling and money by-laws
were voted on and approved by the ratepayers. Power purchase and sale
agreements were executed between the Commission and the Corporation.
The Commission operated the distribution system in North Bay from the
date of transfer, June 1, until the end of the year. In 1941 the system will
be operated by a local Commission.
Sudbury District
This district includes the city of Sudbury and areas adjacent thereto.
Power is supplied from three hydro-electric developments on the Wanapitei
river and the Crystal Falls development on the Sturgeon river. Power is
supplied to the city of Sudbury, the town of Capreol, the hamlet of Garson,
the Sudbury rural power district, and for m.ining purposes to The Inter-
national and Falconbridge Nickel Companies. The load sold to the city of
Sudbury increased by 11.3 per cent, and the total district load sold increased
by 7.1 per cent during the year. To provide for load growth a second sub-
station was placed under construction in Sudbury.
Abitibi District
The Abitibi district includes the areas served by the Abitibi Canyon
development. Power is supplied chiefly for mining purposes in the mining
districts of Porcupine, Kirkland Lake, Larder Lake, Matachewan, and Sud-
bury, and to The Canada Northern Power Corporation. The increase in
load sold in this district over the previous year was 20.9 per cent. In addi-
tion to power supply for thirty-one mining customers, service is also giv^en
to four mining townsites, one town and one village, all of which have shown
an increase in both load sold and additional customers served.
Patricia-St. Joseph District
This district comprises the combined areas served by the Ear Falls
development on the English river, and the Rat Rapids development on the
Albany river, both of which feed into one interconnecting network of trans-
mission lines. Power is supplied to eleven mines in Red Lake, Woman
Lake and Pickle Lake mining districts and to the mining townsites of Red
Lake and Cottage Cove, the hamlet of Hudson and the town of Sioux Look-
out. A contract was negotiated with The Dryden Paper Co. Ltd. for a
large block of power on an "at-will" basis to be delivered early in the new
year. The total load sold in this district increased 30.7 per cent.

RURAL ELECTRICAL SERVICE IN ONTARIO
Hydro service brings to Ontario farmers a high standard of living and relief from many arduous
tasks in house, dairy and barn
RURAL ELECTRICAL SERVICE
IN ONTARIO
THE year 1940 completed a period of twenty years during which the
Commission extended rural lines to serve consumers in areas known as
rural power districts. It is nearly thirty years since the Commission first
supplied rural electrical service to consumers. During the first ten years,
service was supplied to townships and in most cases lines were constructed
from existing municipal urban systems. During the last twenty years the
supplying of electrical service in rural districts has been undertaken by the
formation of rural power districts, whose boundaries are not arbitrary
geographical limits, such as define the areas of townships, but depend rather
upon the economic distance which may be served from a distribution centre.
The land area of the Province of Ontario extends over a vast territory of
363,282 square miles, of which about 35,700 square miles are occupied for
agriculture. The total rural population in the area served by The Hydro-
Electric Power Commission, or in adjacent areas within transmission distance
of the Commission's power supply, is approximately 1,100,000.
There are 184 operating rural power districts, and power is delivered to
approximately 123,000 rural consumers, comprising farms and dwellings in
various groups. The consumers are situated in 422 organized townships;
16 unorganized townships and 119 police villages, villages and towns, and
are served over a network of rural primary lines which aggregate 19,492
miles. In addition to the 438 townships served by rural power districts, 10
townships are served jointly by rural power districts and voted areas.
Durmg the past year the mileage of rural line extensions approved for
construction in rural power districts in Ontario was 1,340. In all, 9,865
42
THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
consumers were added. The aggregate load supplied to all rural Hydro
consumers in the Province amounted to 70,018 horsepower, an increase of
13.6 per cent over 1939.
Census data indicate that there are approximately 200,000 farms in
Ontario, varying from one acre to six hundred acres or larger. It would be
erroneous, however, to conclude that hydro-electric service will eventually
extend to such a number of fcirms. Approximately ten per cent of these are
very small, and service to them, if available, is supplied by the Commission
under rates applicable to non-farm classes. There are also large numbers
of farms jointly owned and tenanted, some having no residential buildings
on them, and there are also a large number situated in remote districts out
of reach of Hydro lines and stations.
During the period that the regulations respecting service to rural con-
sumers required a minimum of three farm contracts per mile of primary
line, the Commission made surveys in various parts of the Province and
estimated that approximately 75,000 standard or large farms would com-
prise the probable ultimate total of farms that could be served on this basis.
Since that time new regulations have been made permitting service on the
basis of two farms per mile, which necessarily has increased the number of
additional farms that may be served.
For the next year it is anticipated that the miles of primary line con-
structed will be about 80 per cent of the number constructed during the past
year. As the lines extend into the more remote districts, however, the
average number of farms that can be served per mile of line and the number
of farms remaining to be served will become smaller, and therefore the mile-
age of rural lines constructed each year will decrease.
Recent estimates of the major electrical appliances used in rural power
districts are set out in the following table:

Standard Number of Consumers per Mile
Effective May 1, 1938, the Commission received authority by Order-in-
Council to construct rural primary lines on a basis of two farms per mile
under existing rates. This new basis does not include service to summer
cottages, which remains on the previous basis of three farms per mile. The
standard number of consumers required per mile varies according to the
class of service rendered. For this purpose a unit rating is allocated to each
class of consumer. A total of ten units per mile made up by various classes
of consumers is required before construction work is undertaken.
The following table shows the number of units for each class of service;

THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
Cabin Service
Arrangements were made during the year to provide the Commission's
rural customers with electric service to cabins at special rates, which call for
a service charge of 30 cents gross per cabin per month and five kilowatt-hours
extra per cabin per month to be added to the first kilowatt-hour block. The
rates are subject to the usual ten per cent discount for prompt payment.
This cabin service is supplementary to the regular supply contract and ap-
plies to the months of June, July, August and September of each year.
Maximum Consumption Charge
The Commission has found that the maximum economic limit of the
first domestic use through the rural power districts of the Province is 6 cents
per kilowatt-hour. In all rural power districts the first consumption rate
is fixed at a maximum of 6 cents per kilowatt-hour. The second rate has a
maximum of 2 cents per kilowatt-hour which applies to all districts.
Low Third Consumption Rate for Long-Hour Users
In 1934 the Commission made available for rural consumers a special
energy rate for long-hour users of power. This low rate particularly affects
under-earth heating (hot-beds) and heating of water. Where the extra use
of energy may be obtained from the present equipment, a third follow-up
rate per kilowatt-hour of 0.75 cents gross is given in all districts. The first
rate remains unchanged, except that as pointed out above it is subject to a
maximum of 6 cents per kilowatt-hour, and the killowatt-hours to be charged
at the first rate remain unchanged. The number of kilowatt-hours to be
charged at the second rate varies both with the class of service and the first
kilowatt-hour rate. At the head of the table of rural rates at the end of this
section is a schedule which shows the class of service, the number of kilo-
watt-hours per month to be charged for at the first rate, and the number of
kilowatt-hours at the second rate according to the governing first rate.
Average Cost to Rural Consumers Decreasing

*It may be observed that the number of consumers reported here does not agree with those
shown in other sections of the Annual Report of the Commission. This is due to the fact that the
figures given here represent consumers actually billed, whereas elsewhere in the Report the tables
show the number of contracts executed to the end of the fiscal year. In many cases service is
not given until the following year.
Rural Loans
Under The Rural Power District Loans Act, 1930, authority was given
to The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario to finance the instal-
lation of wiring and the purchase of specified electrical equipment by rural
farm consumers.
To October 31, 1940, 2,377 applications had been received and of these
1,772 loans were completed. As all applications for loans are governed by
regulations made subject to the provisions of the Act, it will be seen that
quite a number fail to meet the requirements of these regulations.
To October 31, 1940, 792 loans had been repaid in full either through
the maturing of the loan or because of the improved financial position of the
borrower.
During the fiscal year ended October 31, 1940, there were received
284 apphcations which, with the 48 carried over from last year, were disposed
of as follows:
Loans completed 247
Withdrawn 27
Did not meet requirements 6
Cheques issued but refused by applicants and cancelled 7
Not approved 40

SECTION IV
SALES PROMOTION
IN last year's report an outline was given of the changing circumstances
connected with the Commission's growth and available power supplies
which recently made it profitable to establish a Sales Promotion department.
Before the first year's work of the newly-formed department was com-
pleted the war had begun to change the situation again and sales promotion
activities were necessarily modified to meet the new conditions.
Ontario's position as the chief industrial province of the Dominion gave
added importance to the industrial and lighting services of the Commission
in connection with war activities and stress was laid on assisting industry to
use electrical energy- in the most efficient manner and to use more of it wher-
ever such use would contribute to greater production or better products.
This advisory service was welcomed by the municipal utilities and by
industrial consumers and has assisted them to make advantageous changes
in equipment or methods.
In the rural power districts effort was made to foster those uses of
electricity on the farm and in rural industries that would release man-power
and enable the farmer to produce greater volume at lower cost.
Industrial Work
Co-operating with the municipal Hydro utilities a total of 869 calls
were made on 377 industrial plants. On the initial calls the service offered
by the Commission was explained; on subsequent calls detailed attention
was given to plant operations which usually resulted in suggestions for im-
provements to operating conditions or practice. In some plants complete
surveys were made and recommendations submitted. Where the sugges-
tions in these reports were adopted gains up to 30 per cent of efficiency in
motor loading and up to 10 per cent in plant power factor were frequently
made.
New tools and processes have been introduced and tried out in industrial
establishments. An interesting example is the use of infra-red lamps for
drying and baking processes. With the co-operation of the Commission's
laboratories testing equipment has been provided and Hydro consumers
62 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
may now, at a reasonable cost, have their processes analysed to determine
whether the use of these new developments would be profitable.
Domestic and Rural Activities
Co-operation with municipal Hydro utilities has been given to encourage
further domestic use. Hydro Homemaker Forums were conducted in 48
municipalities, with a total of 102 sessions. The gross attendance at these
schools was 39,400, or an average of 387 per school.
In the rural areas, the Hydro Display Coach was shown in 31 rural
centres to a total of 12,200 consumers, and prospective users. This travelling
display was also used to advantage at 15 Fall Fairs before an estimated total
audience of 20,000 people.
Lighting
A substantial increase in lighting advice service was recorded. The
most insistent demands for this service came from industries being adapted
to war work and from schools.
The necessity for good lighting for efficient war material production is
well recognized. Many problems in industrial lighting were solved during
the year; most of them on an emergency basis requiring fast service. A total
of 65 industrial establishments for war supplies were given lighting surveys
followed by recommendations for improved lighting equipment.
Improvements in lighting and wiring followed reports on 268 schools,
most of which adopted the suggestions made. The interest of rural school
boards has been exceptional, and has resulted in the installation of adequate
lighting in a large number of country schools.
During the year, the Lighting section issued 833 reports, with a recom-
mended increase in lighting load of 5,905 kilowatts.
Advertising
The Commission's advertising programme, following that established
in the previous year, was divided into four different classifications: institu-
tional, domestic, rural and industrial.
A type of institutional advertising copy was inaugurated dealing with
the work of Hydro and electric power supply in aid of the war effort, and
emphasizing its vital and important position. In the industrial advertising
field, stress was laid on new applications of electricity, and on the value of
adequate lighting to munition industries.
The media selected for this advertising campaign were such as to ensure
maximum coverage at lowest cost. An analysis of circulation of the various
publications used assures that the advertisements reached nearly every
home, farm, and industry in the Province.
A number of bulletins and pamphlets were prepared and issued, dealing
with domestic and rural applications. These were advantageously used by
municipal Hydro utilities to develop increased uses of energy- in these mar-
kets.

Sales of Lamps and Equipment
The sale of electrical supplies and equipment including water heater
material, to Hydro municipal systems has amounted during the year, to a
total of $414,676, an increase of $180,900 over the previous year. The dis-
tribution of Hydro lamps to Hydro systems was well maintained, and the
total sales during the year show a substantial increase.
General Comments
Since the work of the Sales Promotion department has been so largely
concentrated on assisting war services, it is difficult to enumerate the load
increases attributable directly to sales promotion activities. However, it
can confidently be stated that an increase in energy supply of 25,000,000
kilowatt-hours resulted, providing a continuing annual increase in revenue
of approximately $375,000 to the municipal systems.
During the coming year, the war service work will be continued and
augmented.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 65
SECTION V
HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION
DURING 1940 the situation respecting power supplies to meet growing
Hydro loads made it necessary to do preliminary work on certain new
developments and to investigate other power sources. At the Ear Falls
development in the Patricia-St. Joseph district of northern Ontario, No. 3
unit was completed. In July, work commenced on the construction of the
Big Eddy development on the Musquash river to serve the Georgian Bay
system, and in September the Barrett Chute development on the Mada-
waska river to serve the Eastern Ontario system was started.
NIAGARA SYSTEM
Hydraulic engineering investigations and studies in connection with
potential sources of additional power for the Niagara system were chiefly
concerned with two matters — the proposed peak load plant at DeCew Falls
and the diversion of northern waters to the Great Lakes.
DeCew Falls Peak Load Plant
The existing DeCew Falls plant, which supplies power to the Dominion
Power and Transmission division of the Niagara system, has a capacity of
about 50,000 horsepower, generation being at a frequency of 66-2 3 cycles.
The plant supplies power to a number of municipalities in the Niagara
peninsula, and is necessarily separate from the 25-cycle supply also given in
that district. The D. P. and T. division is connected with the 25-cycle
system by a frequency-changer set at Niagara Falls, through which a peak
supply of about 10,000 horsepower may be introduced into the division to
supplement the output of the DeCew Falls plant.
During recent years, many municipalities and customers formerly sup-
plied at a frequency of 66-2 3 cycles have been transferred to the 25-cycle
system, but the natural load growth of the remaining customers in the
D. P. and T. division has been approximately equal to the reduction effected
by these transfers. It is necessary, therefore, to maintain the present
plant in operation while the proposed new plant is being built.
3— H.E.
66 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The DeCew Falls plant receives its water supply from lake Erie through
the Welland ship canal, and has large storage basins to enable the uniform
supply from the canal to be used at a varying rate suited to the fluctuating
daily load demands in the division. Prospective increases in the peak-load
demands on the 25-cycle system and the probabihty that additional supplies
of water would be made available for generation of power in the locality
have prompted a series of investigations of the manner in which an extension
or reconstruction of this plant might be used effectively in the 25-cycle sys-
tem. The problem is complicated considerably by the high state of develop-
ment of the terrain through which structures and channels for the convey-
ance of water must be built, and also by the necessity of maintaining the
present plant in service for some time.
The investigations indicate that it may be possible ultimately to build
a plant here having a peak capacity of 200,000 horsepower in four 25-cycle
units of 50,000 horsepower each, involving the discontinuance of 66-2/3-
cycle generation in the final stage. It is probable that the capacity of stor-
age basins will be increased somewhat and that, for the complete develop-
ment, extensive works will be required in Twelve Mile creek and in the old
Welland canal from St. Catharines downstream, through which the water
discharged from the plant must flow to reach lake Ontario.
At the Queenston plant a programme of work on the cliff to provide
effective protection to the plant has been instituted. Cyclopean rip-rap
was placed to protect the bank of the Niagara river along the power-house
railway, some distance downstream from the power house.
Long Lake and Ogoki Diversions
The Long Lake diversion project was used in 1940 for the transporta-
tion of pulpwood from the Kenogami watershed to lake Superior. Following
the understanding reached with the United States respecting the use of waters
to be diverted into the Great Lakes by Canada, the diversion of the flow of a
part of the Kenogami river to the Great Lakes system, via Long lake, was
brought into operation. Careful consideration has been given to the pro-
cedure to be used for accurately measuring the amount of water diverted.
Surveys, investigation of foundation conditions and office studies were
continued in connection with the Ogoki diversion project, and preliminary-
designs have proceeded to the extent necessary to permit commencement of
construction of the works required for the project.
GEORGIAN BAY SYSTEM
The load demands of this system have continued to grow rapidly and.
in spite of the installation last year of a second frequency-changer set at
Hanover, having a capacity of 7.250 kilowatts, it became necessary to com-
mence construction of a second plant on the Musquash river. Between lake
Muskoka and Georgian bay there are on the Musquash river five possible
power concentrations. One at Bala is partially developed at present, a
second at Ragged Rapids was completed during 1938. and construction has
commenced at the third at Big Eddy, about four miles below Ragged Rapids.

Big Eddy Development
The Big Eddy plant will operate under a head of about 36 feet, — the
headwater approximating the tailwater level at Ragged Rapids — and will
contain two generating units, the turbines being of the propeller type with
a rated capacity of 4,950 horsepower each. Work commenced in July 1940,
the first item of construction being a roadway, about four miles long, from
the Ragged Rapids development to the area close to the new power-house site.
By the end of the fiscal year, temporary camps had been constructed at Big
Eddy, and earth and rock excavation for the canal and for the power house
had commenced.
Certain studies were made concerning possible future developments at
other sites on the South Muskoka and Musquash rivers.
EASTERN ONTARIO SYSTEM
Barrett Chute Development
Major activities in the Eastern Ontario system were in connection with
the development commenced at Barrett Chute on the Madawaska river.
Barrett Chute is one of seven new developments projected on this river,
and is situated immediately above Calabogie lake about 31 miles from Arn-
prior. The development will concentrate at this point a total fall of 154
feet occurring under natural conditions in some five miles of the river, and will
comprise a concrete dam across the river channel above High falls and a
power canal, 38 feet wide and 2,000 feet long, extending from the pool above
the dam to headworks some 600 feet from the shore of Calabogie lake. From
the headworks, two steel penstocks, 14 feet in diameter and 550 feet in length
will extend to two units in the power house, each having a rated turbine
capacity of 28,000 horsepower, giving a plant rating of 54,000 electrical
horsepower. The turbines will have single, vertical, Francis type runners
in steel-plate casings, and discharge through elbow-draft tubes. They will
run at 164 r.p.m. and generate their rated output under a head of 150 feet.
At the same time as the development is under construction, storage
facilities on the river will be increased by building a concrete and earth fill
dam at Bell rapids to raise the level of Bark lake some 25 feet and to provide
storage capacity therein for 215,000 acre-feet, which may later be increased
to 270,000 acre-feet by raising the lake an additional five feet.
Before a decision was made as to the appropriate capacity for the Bar-
rett Chute plant and the required increase in storage facilities, a thorough
study was made of the relation of the Madawaska sites to the rest of the
Eastern Ontario system and, in fact, their place in the power supply for the
whole of souihern Ontario. These investigations indicated that it was feas-
ible and desirable to provide for capacities at the various sites on the river
considerably greater than those which would be warranted if they were
isolated from other power sources.

BARRETT CHUTE DEVELOPMENT — MADAWASKA RIVER
Canal excavation, near canal intake — December 14, 1940
70 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The Eastern Ontario system which operates at 60 cycles receives its
power supply, in part, from hydro-electric developments on the Trent,
Mississippi, Madawaska and other rivers; in part, from Quebec power
sources by purchase; and, in part, also from the 25-cycle Niagara system
through the Chats Falls frequency-changer. Investigations indicated that
it would be advantageous to conserve the water stored in the Madawaska
storage basins through certain of the spring, summer and early fall months
by transferring through the frequency-changer at Chats Falls a larger amount
of power than has been customary in the past, in those months when surplus
capacity exists in the Niagara system.
As an isolated plant, the Barrett Chute development would probably
be capable, with suitable storage facilities, of carrying a load of 36,000 horse-
power. Because of the variation in load demands throughout the year and
the arrangements for transfer of power from one system to another, it was
determined that the optimum capacity for the site was about 54,000 horse-
power. The economic capacity of other sites on the river is similarly in-
creased over that anticipated some years ago, when the river was studied
separately. Upon the complete development of the river, an additional
supply of approximately 150,000 horsepower will be obtained from six sites
at present undeveloped. Additional storage of some 200,000 acre-feet will
also ultimately be constructed.
Construction commenced on the Barrett Chute development in Sep-
tember 1940, the first work being the betterment of an existing road and the
building of approximately three miles of new road between Calabogie and
the power site. By the end of the calendar year the road to the site was
completed, temporary camps were being erected, and earth excavation had
commenced. At the same time, some of the preliminary work had begun
on the improvement of the road from Barry bay to the Bark lake dam.
Preliminary studies were made in connection with other power sites
on the Trent and Mississippi rivers.
THUNDER BAY SYSTEM
In the Thunder Bay system work was confined to field investigations
of the flow of the Nipigon river; estimates and studies of additional installa-
tions at Cameron Falls and Alexander plants; a new development at Pine
Portage and other sites, and the relation of the proposed Ogoki diversion
to these sites.
NORTHERN ONTARIO PROPERTIES
Sudbury and Nipissing Districts
Field investigations were made of the flow in the Sturgeon and Wana-
pitei rivers, with a view to improving the efficiency of the use of water at the
Crystal Falls plant on the former, and at the Coniston. Stinson and Mc-
Vittie plants on the latter. In the case of the Wanapitei river plants, the
investigations had also in mind the possible increase in capacity of the
plants by reconstruction of certain units and installation of additional units.

Surveys in considerable detail were made for a power site at Five Mile
rapids on the French river. At this site a head of about forty feet may be
developed, the forebay at the proposed development being slightly below
the level of lake Nipissing. The survey included the taking of topography
along the intricate courses of the river from the power site to lake Nipissing
and, in greater detail, at power-house and dam sites. Continuous records
of water levels were obtained at certain key points for the determination of
hydraulic gradients and flow distribution in the various channels.
The French river site has certain advantages if used in connection with
the 25-cycle Abitibi district, as it will be possible to draw on the water stored
in lake Nipissing, through those months when the water supply in the Abitibi
river is deficient. Used thus, as an integral part of the Abitibi district, the
site may be developed for possibly 25,000 horsepower. Its capacity, if
used independently or as a part of the 60-cycle Sudbury district, would be
very much less than this.
Surveys and studies continued in connection with power sites on the
Mississagi river.
Patricia-St. Joseph District
At the end of 1939, the third unit in the Ear Falls plant was approaching
completion; it was brought into service in January 1940. The new unit con-
sists of a vertical turbine, rated at 7,500 horsepower at 36 feet of head,
with automatically adjustable blade runner of the Kaplan type, directly con-
nected to a 6,000-kv-a. generator. The Ear Falls plant, which is described
in some detail in the last Annual Report, now has an installed capacity of
17,500 horsepower.
Preliminary investigations were also made in connection with the
Manitou Falls power site some fifteen miles downstream from Ear Falls
plant, and on possible channel improvements at Manitou chutes lying be-
tween the two power sites.
HYDRAULIC INVESTIGATIONS
The growth in the number of water power developments owned and
operated by the Commission; the more complete utilization of the individual
sites; the development of additional storage and particularly the intercon-
nection of developments on different watersheds have made the collection
and analysis of hydrometric data of much greater importance and value.
Systematic collection and study of data relating to the flow of streams,
the topography, forest cover and storage possibilities of their watersheds
and detailed information respecting lakes and power sites, is essential to the
efficient operation of existing power plants and the most economical design
of future developments. To be of maximum value these data must extend
continuously over many years. Their lack is a serious handicap. The
Commission has given increasing attention to this matter during recent
years as a routine administrative feature of its Hydraulic Engineering de-
partment.

SECTION VI
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION
CONSTRUCTION work proceeded on an extensive scale in the co-oper-
ative systems during 1940 and was also active in the Northern Ontario
Properties. The rapid growth in industrial load originating with the pro-
duction of munitions and other war necessities, together with a growth in
domestic and commercial demand stimulated by these activities, required
engineering studies and careful planning for efficient power supply. This
planning involved the rearrangement of certain distributing circuits and the
advance purchase of transformers and oil circuit-breakers which require
considerable time to produce, in order to ensure availability of such equip-
ment for war load installations which in many cases are of an emergent
nature.
At the end of this section is given a tabulation of the transformer and
distributing stations where major construction work affecting the transformer
capacity was undertaken and to a large extent completed during the fiscal
year. At other stations similar work is under way and scheduled for com-
pletion in 1941.
Besides changes in transformer capacity important work of a less exten-
sive nature in both the generating and transformer stations of the Commission
was carried out where required, such as the installation of additional switch-
ing equipment, improved relaying and protective equipment and larger
capacity metering equipments.
Transmission line construction in 1940 centred around the industrial
communities of southern Ontario. In the previous year it had centred
around the mining communities of northern Ontario. In all, 281 miles of
new transmission lines were placed in service and extensive revisions and
improvements were made in existing lines.
The largest single item of transmission line expenditure was on the
220,000-volt steel tower line from the Ontario-Quebec boundary near the
St. Lawrence to serve the Toronto and Hamilton areas. This line was 40
per cent completed in 1940 and is scheduled to be placed in service in 1941.
Two maps at the back of this report show the transmission lines and
stations of the Commission in the co-operative systems and Northern Ontario
Properties. A tabulation of transmission line mileage placed in service

during the fiscal year is given at the end of the section, together with a brief
summary of the more important projects completed during the year.
Co-operative Systems
On the Niagara system the three transformer stations under construc-
tion in 1939 were completed and placed in service during the year. One of
these is Toronto Fairbank, a 50,000-kv-a transformer station located in the
northwest section of the city; another is Allenburg transformer station,
67,500-kv-a capacity and located at Ontario Paper Company's plant at
Thorold; the third is Norfolk transformer station, 6,0(X)-kv-a capacity, near
Simcoe.
Among the transformer stations included in the tabulation but which
were not completed in 1940 is one being constructed at Burlington for the
supply of additional power to the Niagara system at 110,000 volts from sources
in Quebec and eastern Ontario over 220,000-volt circuits. Designs are being
prepared for a station with an ultimate capacity of 450,000 kv-a. The site
has been purchased and construction work was started in November 1940.
Most of the equipment for the initial installation has been purchased and is
expected to be placed in service by June 1941. This initial installation will
consist of two 75,000-kv-a transformer banks with a spare unit and two
voltage-regulators. The transformers are rated 25,000-kv-a, 25-cycle.

At Hamilton a two unit 50,000-kv-a transformer station similar to
Toronto-Fairbank is under construction. One of the units has already been
placed in service. Additional transformer capacity was installed and placed
in service at Toronto-Bridgman, St. Thomas, St. Clair, Brant and Wood-
stock transformer stations.
In July 1940, the new 110,000-volt single-circuit line on steel towers
between St. Thomas and Windsor, 103 miles, was placed in service. This
line, which has a capacity equal to the other two existing lines on double-
circuit towers, has greatly improved operating conditions of the western
section of the Niagara system.

TRANSMISSION LINES IN TORONTO — NIAGARA SYSTEM
Narrow-base towers on 110.000-volt line from St. Clair Avenue
junction to Toronto- Fairbank transformer station
Substantial progress was made on the construction of a new 220,000-
volt line which, when completed, will extend from the eastern boundary of
the Province, the Quebec border, to the new transformer station at Burling-
ton. At the end of the fiscal year about 150 miles of towers and footings
had been erected and 75 miles of steel-reinforced aluminum conductor had
been strung.
In the Georgian Bay system at Hanover frequency-changer station an
additional frequency-changer of 6,750 kv-a capacity was installed. It is
operated in parallel with the original 5,000-kv-a unit for the interchange
of power with the Niagara system. Two 5,000-kv-a generating units have
been purchased for the power development now under construction at Big
Eddy on the Musquash river. A 6,000-kv-a distributing station was in-

supply of power to a munitions plant. Increased transformer capacity was
provided in 12 distributing stations.
In the Eastern Ontario system a new 3,0(X)-kv-a transformer station
was constructed to supply power to the National Research Council at Ottawa,
and an adjacent rural power district. The capacity of the Ottawa trans-
former station was increased by the installation of an additional bank of
three 5,000-kv-a transformers, and additional transformer capacity was
provided at many distributing stations. Many sections of the high-voltage
network were strengthened by the construction of new lines and the re-
habilitation of certain sections.

The third generator unit, 6,(XX)-kv-a capacity, was placed in service at
Ear Falls development in the Patricia district. Additional transformer
capacity was installed at Ramore, Timmins, Larder Lake and Pamour
transformer stations in the Abitibi district. The re-insulation of the trans-
mission circuit from Crystal Falls generating station to Coniston generating
station for 110,000- volt service was completed and an 8,000-kv-a, 3-phase
step-up transformer installed at each end to effect a tie-in to the original
circuits. More than 43 miles of transmission circuits were erected through-
out the various districts.
Rural Power Districts
The rural power lines throughout all the systems were extended approxi-
mately 1,550 miles for the supply of power to the rural districts; 570 miles
of these extensions were in Niagara system; 366 miles in Georgian Bay
system; 405 miles in Eastern Ontario system; 82 miles in Thunder Bay
system and 127 miles in Northern Ontario Properties.
Office Building
Ten additional office floors and two penthouse floors were added to the
Commission's six-storey office building on University avenue, erected in
1934. The enlarged office space will relieve the crowded condition that

Distribution Lines
At the end of this section is a tabulation of the mileage of distribution
lines constructed by the Commission in rural power districts, and the num-
ber of consumers served. The capital investment in these rural power dis-
tricts at October 31, 1940, was approximately $36,600,000.

THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
In addition to the extensions in connection with rural electrical service,
the Commission during 1940 extended power lines to serve aerodromes
established in connection with the Empire training plan and constructed
distributing systems on the aerodrome sites.
The lighting of the Queen Elizabeth dual highway was extended. In-
stallations were completed from the western limits of Toronto to Brown's
Line, from Burlington to Burlington Beach and from Burlington Beach to
the vicinity of Niagara Falls. The total mileage added during the year
was 41 . 6 miles. Construction work was also commenced on the 16-mile
section between Oakville and Hamilton.
A number of highway traffic signals were installed in various parts of
the Province.

SECTION VII
TESTING— RESEARCH- INSPECTION
PRODUCTION AND SERVICE
THE Laboratories have been more active than ususal in nearly all sec-
tions in carrying on research work and investigations, in routine testing,
in factory inspection of electrical equipment being purchased by the Com-
mission or the municipalities, and in examination and testing of devices
and fittings in the interest of public safety.
The Research Committee, organized in 1933, directs the work of six-
teen subcommittees each of which is studying some specific practical prob-
lem related to the design, construction, operation or maintenance of the
power systems. These subcommittees have been very effective in develop-
ing new ideas and in improving the characteristics of various materials and
equipment. A new subcommittee, formed during the year, will study
methods of suppressing radio interference from power lines.
In 1940, a change of great importance was made in the method of carry-
ing on the approvals testing of electrical equipment. On May 1, the Can-
adian Engineering Standards Association assumed responsibility for this
work, and since that date all correspondence and negotiations regarding
approvals testing of electrical equipment in Canada has been carried on by
the Association. The name of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of
Ontario is no longer used in this connection.
In view of the importance of this change, a brief history of the steps
leading to it is given.
The Commission organized its Approvals Laboratory about 1918 for
the purpose of carrying on testing only in Ontario. Its activities were,
however, considerably expanded when the first edition of the Canadian
Electrical Code appeared in 1927 and it undertook work for other provinces
at their request, so that for the past ten or more years it has carried on ap-
provals testing and factory re-examination in all parts of Canada and also
for a large number of United States manufacturers who applied for approval
under the terms of the Canadian Electrical Code. This condition appeared
undesirable from the point of view of national acceptance of approvals
regulations, and in 1938 a conference of provincial inspectors from all prov-
inces passed a resolution requesting the Canadian Engineering Standards
90 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Association to assume responsibility for the approval of electrical equip-
ment. With this resolution the Commission agreed and when the task was
accepted by the Canadian Engineering Standards Association the Commis-
sion's officials, in conjunction with representatives of the Canadian Engi-
neering Standards Association and the National Research Council, gave every
assistance in working out the details connected with the change. On May 1,
1940, the transfer of responsibility was officially made and the new order
has been accepted by electrical inspection departments and industry in
general with enthusiasm.
The Canadian Engineering Standards Association organized a special
Approvals division which will be financed entirely from the approvals fees
and will not be a charge on other standardization work of the Canadian
Engineering Standards Association. The administration of the division is
in the hands of an administrative board of three members, the chairman
being the chief testing engineer of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission,
the secretary being the secretary of the Canadian Engineering Standards
Association; the third member is the engineer in charge of the electrical
laboratories of the National Research Council. In order to secure the
necessary contacts with and support from the provinces, an Approvals Coun-
cil, which is an advisory body, was also formed consisting of the chief elec-
trical inspector in each province.
The Commission's Approvals Laboratory still carries on most of the
testing and inspection work as an agent of the Canadian Engineering Stan-
dards Association. Consequently, the transfer of responsibility has involved
little change either in the staff or equipment of the Approvals Laboratory.
The Approvals Laboratory and Electrical Inspection department have
co-operated throughout the year to render important service in testing var-
ious types of appliances, wire and wiring devices, and in inspecting installa-
tions to insure protection against fire and electric shock. Due partly to
this activity, electrical accidents in the Province have been few.
The photographic, blueprinting and photostat department, the produc-
tion and service department, machine shop, carpenter shop and garage also
have completed a large number of orders for the various types of work that
they handle for other departments.
TESTING AND RESEARCH LABORATORIES
Routine and General Testing
The Laboratories each year conduct a large number of routine tests on
different types of material and equipment, and inspect various work for the
Commission and for municipalities during construction in the manufac-
turer's plants and erection in the field. These services are maintained to
insure the highest quality in material and workmanship in order that the
equipment will be satisfactory in characteristics and in operation, with a
minimum of maintenance and expense, and that power interruptions will be
avoided as far as possible.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 91
Materials and Equipment Inspection
Transmission Line Materials
The inspection of transmission line materials which pass through Strachan
avenue stores has included crossarms, brackets, insulator pins, clamps of
various types, general hardware, wire and cable. The amount of copper
wire, steel-reinforced aluminum and galvanized steel cable inspected was
4,058 tons, about fifty per cent more than last year. A large number of
vibration dampers for the new Beauharnois power line also were inspected.
Electrical Equipment
Electrical factory inspection included 214 power transformers, having
total capacity of 371,850 kv-a, which was a larger number and more than
twice the transformer capacity inspected in the previous year. Nearly
seven times as many oil circuit-breakers were inspected with an increase of
26 per cent in total capacity, and 6,155 disconnecting switches, totalling
16,988,000 kv-a, nearly eleven times the circuit-breaker capacity inspected
last year. Distribution transformers amounted to 2,900; line and bus
insulators increased to the total of 352,950 units. Metal-clad switchgear
for several installations was given detail inspection at the factories.
Gradient tests were made on about 3,500 transformer and oil-circuit
breaker bushings in position and those showing abnormal conditions were
r emoved and reconditioned.
Routine tests were made in the Laboratories on 5,644 pairs of linemen's
rubber gloves, 2,776 samples of insulating oil, 1,680 instrument and distri-
bution transformers, 261 thermostats and 10,000 insulators, a large increase
over last year in nearly all items. Miscellaneous safety equipment also was
tested. Watthour meters repaired and checked numbered 2,674 and 154
indicating instruments were calibrated.
Mechanical and Structural Equipment
The mechanical equipment inspected included ten oil-storage tanks,
one heating boiler, and ten street car axles. Structural equipment included
433 window sashes. In addition, various other items of equipment for
generating, transformer and switching stations were inspected. The fabri-
cation of tanks and other parts for transformers and oil circuit-breakers, and
housings for metal-clad switchgear and unit substations has been followed
through the factories. Special attention was given to welding and painting.
Concrete
Three resident concrete inspectors and three part time assistants were
stationed on two construction jobs. These inspectors tested the aggregates,
supervised processes and generally checked the quality of the concrete.
Field inspections of four structures were made to observe the condition
of the concrete and to record any evidence of deterioration so as to give them
the necessary attention.
Field surveys for materials were made prior to construction work at
three sites: — Big Eddy, Barrett Chute and Bark lake.

Protective Coatings
The inspection of paints and other protective coatings has shown a
definite increase. 537 samples having been tested at the Laboratories. Ex-
posure tests were made on some paints with special wood -preservative
properties.
Steel and Timber
A total of 8,416 tons of steel was inspected, of which 94 per cent was
tower and station steel for new installations, and most of the remainder was
for reinforcing. About 11,700 pine and cedar poles also were inspected
and of these 27 per cent were rejected as not suitable for any purpose of the
Commission. A number of stop logs for the dam at Virgin Falls were ex-
amined.
Lamps and Lighting Equipment
A total of 84,400 lamps were tested at the factory and 4,833 life tests
were made at the laboratory, the latter being an increase of 24 per cent over
the previous year. Four special tests were carried out, and 35 tests made on
automobile equipment for the Department of Highways. Also four candle-
power distribution tests were completed. As in previous years, a number
of reflex signals, samples of safety glass, auto headlight devices and direction
signals were checked to determine their characteristics.
Research
Research work is carried on continually in both the laboratories and the
field to improve the characteristics and quality of materials and equipment
in order to insure the highest efficiency and continuity of service and to
reduce cost wherever possible.
Vibration of Transmission Line Conductors
The study of vibration in power line conductors was continued and
valuable information obtained to guide the engineers in the design of new
lines. Mathematical studies were directed chiefly toward the design of
test equipment and the characteristics of dampers and conductors.
The experimental test spans referred to in previous reports were in
almost continuous operation in connection with studies of the protection
required for the St. Thomas- Windsor line and the new 220.000-volt Beau-
harnois-Burlington line. Specific recommendations were made in both
cases for the installation of dampers. Some special cables were tested on
these spans to obtain comparative information on their inherent ability to
suppress natural vibrations.
Further experimental work was done to determine the physical char-
acteristics of dampers. Energy loss measurements on several types of
dampers were made at Stanford University, a member of the Laboratory
staff being present.
Two fatigue testing machines were in continuous use on aluminum and
galvanized steel wire. Two additional machines were ordered: one arrived
in September and has since been in operation. Fatigue, bend and twist

Right — The combined bridge and electronic amplifier used with the gauge. By means of this
equipment, together with an oscillograph, rapid variations of very small strains in the
strand are recorded
tests were completed on a large amount of steel wire removed at different
stages in the hot dip and electro-galvanizing processes.
A number of vibration fatigue tests were made on the Laboratory span
to determine the endurance of certain cables, clamps and connections. The
study of the forces developed and the vibratory displacement near the
clamps has been continued on various types of cable.
Electrical Insulation
A new method was devised, and equipment assembled, for detecting
the presence of conducting material in moulded and sheet insulation.
Treatment of line insulators to prevent radio interference was a subject of
active study. Klydonographs were installed at one large station to record
the frequency and magnitude of lightning strokes, and readings were taken
periodically.
Remote Control of Loads
Various systems of off-peak control of loads such as electric water
heaters, have been investigated and engineering assistance was given to a
number of municipalities where installations were contemplated.
Rural Applications of Electricity
Investigations of the characteristics of grain grinders were continued
and a machine was constructed which incorporated the features developed
in previous work. The objective in these studies is the design of a suitable
grinder in small size which will sell at a reasonable price to meet the require-
ments of a large number of rural customers.
The equipment previously installed at the Ontario Agricultural College
in Guelph for experiments in soil heating and the application of artificial
illumination to plant growth was in use during the fall, winter and spring

months. These investigations have resulted in a number of commercial
florists adapting these methods in an experimental way to further production
in their own greenhouses.
Electric Welding
A method of comparing stresses in welded joints, before and after
stress relieving, was developed and will be useful in determining the quality
of welds. The information gained in welding studies was found valuable
in the inspection of welded tanks and other equipment fabricated for the
Commission.
Radio Interference
Field tests of radio interference were made on several power lines of
various voltages using a radio noise meter specially adapted to this purpose.
The effects of such factors as temperature, humidity, proximity of ground
wires and telephone lines were studied.
The interference caused by household appliances and other low-volt-
age devices was measured on a large number and variety of units.
Methods of suppressing radio interference and the determination of
probable allowable limits were the objectives in these studies.
Electronic Applications
Studies of direct-current power transmission were continued and a
bibliography of historical and recent technical articles was prepared. The
problems of relaying and communication on the 220,000- volt power systems
received further attention.
Domestic Hot Water Tanks and Heaters
The study of corrosion in domestic electric hot water tanks has been
continued to determine the effect of size or surface area of the heating element
upon the economy of operation and life of the elements. The behaviour of
different elements in galvanized iron and in non-ferrous tanks was studied
and some specially coated or covered elements were tested. Trouble with
fuse links in thermostats also was investigated and a more suitable arrange-
ment of link was found.
Masonry Materials
Several important problems relating to mass concrete construction
were studied. These included methods of crack control, special form lin-
ings, types of cement, artificial cooling, the use of large aggregates, construc-
tion joints and winter concreting. Special attention was given to the study
of concrete durability, and refrigeration equipment was installed for use in
further investigations. The deterioration of cement in storage was further
studied, also water movement through concrete and methods of curing con-
crete while retaining the moisture. Existing concrete structures were exam-
ined to observe the deterioration and determine the necessity of repair.
A specification for concrete jobs requiring less than 500 cubic yards of
materials was completed. This w-as designed to meet the needs of foremen
on small construction projects and to insure greater uniformity in concrete
work.

Paints and Protective Coatings
Approval tests were made on a number of brands of paint, and also
comparative studies on cap sheet roofing felts and roofing plastics.
Some of the more recent types of paints exposed in the Ottawa and
Niagara rivers were inspected and tests were made on a new non-skid floor
paint.
The corrosion of buried pipes and cables was studied as part of an investi-
gation into the corrosive properties of soils with a view to applying suitable
protective coatings.
Petroleum Products
A method of refining used lubricating oil was developed and a large
amount of oil at Queenston was reclaimed by this means. A new type of
oil filter was designed and built and a new filter paper for oil was tested.
The effect of light on oil in clear and coloured containers was studied.
Treatment of Wooden Transmission Structures
The application of sand creosote collars for preservation of wood poles
was continued and split collars for reinforcing and treating poles have been
applied more extensively. Solid cylinders were used on a number of poles.
The inspection of a group of eastern cedar poles in service was com-
pleted. A number of poles erected in 1935 and treated in various ways
were examined to determine the effects of this treatment.
Joints in Electrical Conductors
Observations were continued on a number of joints in electrical conduc-
tors to determine the rate of deterioration and increase in resistance by the
effect of weather, without flow of current. Some field investigations were
made on joints which failed in service and on several other joints which had
developed dangerous high resistances. An extensive programme of joint test-
ing was started and a method developed which would avoid the necessity of
cutting out large numbers of joints, allowing them to be welded while in
tension.
Grounding
The problem of grounding transmission and distribution systems in
rural areas was studied using driven electrodes, and the resistances of more
than 6,500 existing consumers' grounds were measured. Tests were com-
menced on standard ground rods, portions of which were galvanized, to
determine the life of these rods in certain soils, and the advantages of galvan-
izing.
Miscellaneous Research
Studies and investigations also were carried out on a variety of other
matters. Chemical tests were made on submarine cable, cooling pond water,
wood fuel and a substitute for rubber. The study of soil mechanics was
continued. The stress-strain characteristics of gasket materials was investi-
gated, and development tests were made on a new type of gap for use in

ROCKWELL HARDNESS TESTER
Used in determining the hardness of metals
place of lightning arresters. Power line interference with telephone circuits
was given considerable attention and the determination of stress by photo-
elasticity was studied with a view to installing suitable test equipment in
the Laboratories.
New Equipment
Several important items of testing equipment were developed and built
at the Laboratories during 1940. These include a live-line vibration recorder
for use on power line conductors, an electric strain gauge and calibrator to
measure dynamic stresses in the individual wires of a vibrating cable, an
instrument to provide a continuous record of cable displacement near the
clamps during fatigue tests, and an inertia amplitude recorder, designed on
the magnetic principle, for use on conductor vibration tests.
New instruments and other equipment purchased for use in testing
include a radio beat-frequency oscillator and audio oscillator for vibration
studies on cables, strobotac and strobolux instruments for observing the
motion of vibrating and rotating bodies by the stroboscopic principle, a
strip-chart recording wattmeter for use with continuous amplitude apparatus
in vibration tests, a vibration generator for use on the third laboratory cable

Specifications and Committee Work
Meetings and conventions of the following organizations were attended
by members of the staff: — Canadian Engineering Standards Association,
National Research Council, Canadian Electrical Association, Engineering
Institute of Canada, American Institute of Electrical Engineers, American
Concrete Institute, Portland Cement Association, American Society for
Testing Materials, National Fire Protective Association, Radio Manufac-
turers Association, Niagara Peninsula Maintenance Association, The On-
tario Municipal Electrical Union, and the Association of Municipal Electrical
Utilities.
APPROVALS LABORATORY
Reference has already been made in the introductory paragraphs to
the change in status of the Approvals Laboratory which has necessitated
some change in the accounting system and a much closer contact with the
staff of the Canadian Engineering Standards Association. The Approvals
engineer attended most of the meetings of the administrative board of the
Approvals division which are held monthly in Toronto, Ottawa or Montreal.

98 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The inspection and approval of appliances and fittings has continued
through the year. A total of 705 applications for approval were received,
366 special inspections were made and 4,123 reports were issued on factory
inspection. The quantity of labels sold for cord, wire, cable, conduit, etc.,
showed an increase of 35 per cent over the previous year, the labels for con-
duit alone increased about 57 per cent, due to the increased activity in the
building trades, in the erection of factories for munitions, hangars, barracks
for the army and air force, and other war and housing requirements.
A total of 453 factory inspections of wiring materials was made and
842 reports were forwarded to manufacturers.
ELECTRICAL INSPECTION DEPARTMENT
This department handled the largest volume of work for any year since
it was organized in 1915. The increase in number of inspections apparently
was due to the accelerated industrial activity brought about by the war.
New manufacturing, ordinance and aircraft plants, and other military proj-
ects, together with the construction resulting from the Commonwealth Air
Training Plan, augmented the work of the department in inspection of both
wiring installations and special equipment designed for war materials manu-
facture.
Statistical
A total of 119,271 permits was issued, about the same as last year,
and 214,212 inspections were made, an increase of 2.8 per cent.
Fires Attributed to Electricity
Among the fires reported as caused through defective wiring and equip-
ment, and investigated this year, twelve were found due to these conditions.
The particular causes were, short circuits in armoured cable and fixture
wire, loose connections at meters, oil-burner ignition equipment, and an
electric iron left heating and unattended in a commercial establishment.
While some of the other fires may have originated in electric wiring or equip-
ment, the evidence available did not substantiate such a conclusion.
Electrocutions and Fatal Accidents
Five persons were electrocuted through coming into contact with elec-
tric wiring or equipment under the jurisdiction of this department. Two
were children who touched brass lamp sockets that had been installed within
reach of grounded material; two were electricians who attempted to work
on live circuits before opening the disconnecting switches, and one was an
electrician working on a dead circuit in too close proximity to live overhead
conductors.
Ground Tests
A total of 3,798 ground resistance tests were made in isolated commun-
ities and rural districts.
Infractions of Regulations
Forty- two persons and companies were prosecuted for various infrac-
tions of the regulations governing the installation, sale and disposal of
electric wiring and equipment.

The Canadian Electrical Code
Members of the Laboratory and Electrical Inspection staffs attended
thirty-three meetings and assisted in revision of sections of Parts I and II
of the Code, and in compiling sections of Part IV.
There was nothing particularly active this year regarding Part I of the
Code, on electrical installations, apart from applications for interim revisions
being received. These were considered and necessary steps taken at the
meeting of the central committee held in Toronto in September.
The work associated with Part II of the Code, which deals with the
approval of specifications for electrical equipment, included compilation
of material and preparation of preliminary drafts, attendance at meetings
and preparation of minutes, revisions of drafts, and also a large amount of
correspondence and frequent interviews with sub-committees and manu-
facturers.
Five specifications were issued by the Canadian Engineering Standards
Association making a total of 53 specifications completed and issued to date.
There are at present 35 specifications either in the process of being issued
or in some earlier stage of preparation.
Active work was carried on in connection with Part IV of the Code
which will establish standard instruments for measuring radio interference.
100 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
set tolerable limits for interference and specify ways and means of reducing
interference from electric circuits, apparatus and equipment to the limits
specified. Government regulations now being drafted make this work more
urgent and important than heretofore. The Laboratories have made measure-
ments of radio interference of a large number of pieces of electrical equip-
ment known to be a source of interference. Measurements of field strength
adjacent to power lines also have been made. The results of these studies
are now available to the Code authorities. A Specification covering construc-
tion, test and application of components of radio interference suppression
devices has been advanced to second preliminary draft form, having been
discussed with industry, inspection authorities and the Department of Trans-
port at an autumn meeting held in Toronto.
PRODUCTION AND SERVICE DEPARTMENT
The operations of the Production and Service department were similar
in nature to those of last year and, determined by the value of the work done,
showed an increase of 13 per cent. Every effort was made to co-operate
with other departments in the development of new tools, apparatus and
equipment.
A total of 1,655 orders were completed by the machine and carpenter
shops. The work of the garage included overhauling 72 trucks, recondition-
ing 15 items of gasoline driven equipment for the Construction department
and completing 624 orders for miscellaneous truck repairs.
The systematic inspection of the Commission's fleet of 329 trucks was
continued, it involved 1,294 individual inspections in the field.
Motor vehicles and other equipment purchased included 59 trucks, and
25 trailers. Of these trucks 39 were replacements and the remaining 20
were additions to the fleet. Winch and derrick equipment also was pur-
chased for 11 trucks.
The fleet mileage was in excess of 3,500,000 miles which constitutes a
progressive increase of approximately 1,000,000 miles or 32 per cent over
that travelled four years ago.
The Truck Committee studied types of truck bodies used by other
utilities, and concerted effort was made to improve the equipment and reduce
the number of body types needed to meet requirements. Two types of all-
steel truck bodies, equipped with compartment space suitably sub-divided
to accommodate tools and equipment were purchased for experimental
purposes.
PHOTOGRAPHY, PHOTOSTAT AND BLUE PRINTING
The photographic orders amounted to 741, slightly less than in the pre-
vious year, but both blueprint and photostat orders have shov.'n marked
increase. In blueprints, 7,190 orders were filled, requiring a total of 121,254
prints, an increase of 30 per cent. For photostat prints there were 607
orders, about 10 per cent more than last year, which indicates that the
equipment installed about three years ago is being used to an increasing
extent.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Relating to
Properties Operated by The Hydro-Electric Power Commission in the
Niagara, Georgian Bay, Eastern Ontario and Thunder Bay
Systems on Behalf of Municipalities
and to
Northern Ontario Properties Held and Operated by the Commission
in Trust for the Province of Ontario, and
The Hamilton Street Railway Company — A Subsidiary of
Niagara System
IN this section of the Report financial statements relating to the activities
of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission, segregated into certain distinct
divisions, are presented. The first division relates to those activities on behalf
of the co-operative municipahties, which are partners in the main "Hydro"
undertaking comprising the Niagara, Georgian Bay, Eastern Ontario and
Thunder Bay systems. The second relates to the administration of the
Northern Ontario Properties which are held and operated by the Commission
in trust for the Province of Ontario. The third relates to The Hamilton
Street Railway Company, a subsidiary of the Niagara system.
Co-operative Systems
In the Foreword to this Report a brief reference is made to the basic
principle governing the operations of the "Hydro" undertaking in supplying
electrical service at cost, and to the wholesale and retail aspects of the work.
A description is also given of the several systems into which the partner muni-
cipalities are co-ordinated for securing common action with respect to power
supplies, through the medium of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
which, under The Power Commission Act, functions as their Trustee.
Although for the purpose of financial administration the various systems
are separate units, there is a similarity of procedure with respect to their
operation which enables certain financial statements, as for example the
various reserves, to be co-ordinated and presented in summary tables.
104 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
The first set of tables in Section IX gives collective results for the co-
operative activities related to the four systems. These tables include a
balance sheet; a statement of operation and cost distribution as
detailed in the "cost of power" tables referred to below; schedules respecting
fixed assets, capital expenditures and grants rural power districts,
power accounts receivable, funded debt issued or assumed, renewals
reserves, contingencies and obsolescence reserves, stabilization of
rates reserves, sinking fund reserves and the account with the Pro-
vincial Treasurer of the Province of Ontario.
The tables which follow these general financial statements relate more
particularly to the individual municipality's aspects of the wholesale activities
of the Commission and for each system show the cost of power to the in-
dividual municipal utilities, the credit or debit adjustment that is made at
the end of the fiscal year, and the sinking fund equity that has been acquired
by the individual municipality. There is also included for each system a
rural operating statement.
The charges for power supplied by the Commission to the various muni-
cipalities vary with the amounts of power used, the distances from the sources
of supply and other factors. The entire capital cost of the various power
developments and transmission systems is annually allocated to the connected
municipalities and other wholesale power consumers, according to the relative
use made of the lines and equipment. Each municipality assumes responsi-
bility for that portion of property employed in providing and transmitting
power for its use, together with such expenses — including the cost of pur-
chased power if any — as are incidental to the provision and delivery of its
wholesale power. The annual expenses and the appropriations for reserves
are provided out of revenues collected in respect of such power, through the
medium of power bills rendered by the Commission. The municipalities are
billed at an estimated interim rate each month during the year and credit or
debit adjustment is made at the end of the year,* when the Commission's
books are closed and the actual cost payable by each municipality for power
taken has been determined.
Included in the municipality's remittance to the Commission for the
wholesale cost of power — besides such current expenses as those for operation
and maintenance of plant, for administration, and for interest on capital — are
sums required to build up reserves for sinking fund, for renewals, for contin-
gencies and obsolescence, and for stabilization of rates. The first -mentioned
reserve, namely, sinking fund, is being created on a 40-year basis for the
purpose of liquidating capital Uabilities. The other reserves are, respectively,
being created to provide funds for the replacing or rebuilding of plant as it
wears out, to enable the undertaking to replace existing equipment with
improved equipment as it becomes available through advances in science and
invention, and to meet unforeseen expenses which from time to time may
arise.
*The financial year for the Commission ends on October 31. The financial year for the
municipal electric utilities, however, ends on December 31. and the municipal accounts are made
up to this date, and so recorded in Section X.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 105
The ultimate source of all revenue to meet costs -whether for the larger
operations of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission or for the smaller local
operations of the municipalities — is, of course, the consumer. Out of the
total revenue collected by each municipal utility from its consumers for ser-
vice supplied, only an amount sufficient to pay the wholesale cost of power
supplied by the Commission as outlined above is remitted to the Commission;
the balance of municipal electrical revenue is retained to pay for the expense
incurred by the local utility in distributing the electrical energy to its con-
sumers.
Tabular Data
The following comments relate to the tabular data presented:
Balance Sheet. — The first tabular statement given in Section IX
is a balance sheet showing the assets, and the liabilities of the several
co-operative systems.
Statement of Operation and Cost Distributions. — This state-
ment is a summary of operating expenses and fixed charges as shown
in the "cost of power" tables relating to the individual systems as re-
ferred to more particularly below.
Fixed Assets. — Details are given concerning the various fixed
assets of each system and of the miscellaneous properties, whilst similar
details are shown of the capital expenditures for the year ended October
31, 1940.
Capital Expenditures and Grants — Rural Power Districts. —
This schedule gives summary information respecting the total capital
expenditures on rural power districts and grants-in-aid of construction
paid or payable by the Province with respect to such rural districts.

amounts collectable from all classes of power consumers and include?
the annual adjustment figures from the "credit or charge" statements
for municipalities. The main details of those debit balances three
months or more overdue are stated.
Funded Debt Issued or Assumed. — This schedule presents a
complete list of the securities issued or assumed by the Commission on
account of the several systems, and the Northern Ontario Properties.
It should be noted that where securities have been issued to finance
properties operated for others, this liability is only shown in memoran-
dum form on the balance sheet of the Commission, whilst the direct
liability is shown on the balance sheets of the Northern Ontario
Properties.
106 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
Renewals Reserves,
Contingencies and Obsolescence Reserves, and
Stabilization of Rates Reserves,
These schedules show the provisions made to, the expenditures
from, and the balance to the credit of, these reserves for each of the
systems and other properties included in the power undertakings
operated on a cost basis.
Sinking Fund Reserves. — This schedule summarizes the appro-
priation of principal and interest with respect to these reserves for each
of the systems and certain other properties.
Account with the Provincial Treasurer. — This schedule lists,
both for the Niagara and other systems operated on a cost basis, and
for the Northern Ontario Properties which are held and operated by
the Commission in trust for the Province, the advances from the
Province of Ontario and the repayments which have been applied to
reduce this liability. It should be noted that Provincial advances to
finance Northern Ontario Properties are shown in memorandum form
only on the balance sheet of the Commission as the direct liability is
carried on the Northern Ontario Properties' balance sheet.
Following these statements, which are common to all systems, there are
given for each of the individual co-operative systems four tabular statements
as follows:
Cost of Power statement, which shows the apportionment to each
municipality of the items of cost summarized in the operating account,
as well as the apportionment of fixed assets in service listed in the
balance sheet and the amount of power taken by each municipality.
It should be noted that the cost of power given in this table is the
wholesale cost — that is, the cost which the Commission receives for the
power delivered from the main transformer stations serving the local
utility. In the case of municipal electrical utilities not directly admin-
istered by the Commission, the respective costs of power appear in
Statement "B" of Section X as "power purchased".
Credit or Charge statement, which shows the adjustments made
in order to bring the amounts paid by each municipal electric utility
to the actual cost of service. The credits and charges for the municipal
electric utilities are taken up and given effect to in the accounts of
"Hydro" utilities.
Sinking Fund statement, which gives the accumulated total of
the amounts paid by each municipality as part of the cost of power
together with its proportionate share of other sinking funds.
Rural Operating statement, which summarizes for the rural
power districts of the system the various items of cost , and the revenues
received, in connection with the distribution of electrical energy to
rural consumers.

Northern Ontario Properties
The statements and schedules respecting these properties which are held
and operated by the Commission in trust for the Province of Ontario include
the balance sheet, operating and income accounts, schedules of fixed assets,
renewals reserves, contingencies and obsolescence reserves, and sinking fund
reserves. These schedules are similar in form to the corresponding schedules
relating to the co-operative systems.
The Hamilton Street Railway Company
This is a subsidiary of the Niagara system of the Commission. A balance
sheet and operating and income account are presented.
Municipal Utilities
All municipal "Hydro" utilities have current expenses to meet similar to
the expenses of the Commission and have adopted the same financial proce-
dure with respect to their operations. In other words, concurrently with the
creation of funds to liquidate their debt to the Commission and to provide the
necessary reserves to protect generating, transforming and transmission sys-
tems, the municipalities are taking similar action with respect to their local
"Hydro" utility systems.
The balance sheets, operating reports and statistical data appearing in
Section X, under the heading of "Municipal Accounts", relate to the operation
of local distribution systems by individual municipalities which have con-
tracted with the Commission for their supply of electrical energy. To this
section there is an explanatory introduction to which the reader is specially
referred.
Auditing of Accounts
The accounts of The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario are
verified by auditors specially appointed by the Provincial Government.
The accounts of the "Hydro" utility of each individual municipality are pre-
pared according to approved and standard practice and The Public Utilities
Act requires that they shall be audited by the auditors of the municipal
corporation.

SECTION X
MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTS
and
Statistical Data Relating to Hydro -Electric Distribution Systems
Operated by Individual Municipalities Served by
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
of Ontario
The Municipal Accounts section of this report presents in summary,
and individually, the results of the operation of the local electrical utilities
in municipalities owning their own distributing systems and operating with
energy supplied by or through The Hydro-Electric Power Commission.
Financial statements prepared from the books of these "Hydro" utilities
are submitted herein to show how each has operated during the past year,
and its financial status at the present time. Other tables give useful statis-
tical information respecting average costs for the various classes of service
and the rates in force.
The books of account of the electrical utilities in all municipalities which
have contracted with The Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario for
a supply of power are kept in accordance with an accounting system designed
by the Commission. During the year 1940 this standard method of account-
ing was installed in Iroquois and North Bay.
Periodical inspections are made of the books of all "Hydro" electrical
utilities and local officials are assisted in the improvement of their office
routine with a view to standardizing, as far as possible, the methods employed.
In the majority of the smaller municipalities much of the book-keeping for the
electrical utilities is performed by representatives of the municipal accounting
department of the Commission as a measure of economy. This arrangement
insures the correct application of the standard accounting system, with re-
sultant uniformity in classification of revenues and expenditures; secures true
reflections of the actual operating results for the year, and greatly enhances
the comparative values of the reports.
The first financial statement in this section presents consolidtaed balance
sheets for each year since 1913, and thus shows the march of progress. It
combines the balance sheets of the local municipal utiUties of all the systems.
It is worth noting that the total plant value has increased from $10,081,469.16
188 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
in 1913 to $97,914,199.95 in 1940, and the total assets from $11,907,826.86
to $172,584,735.09. The Habihties have not increased in the same proportion
as the assets, rising from $10,468,351.79 to a maximum of $52,685,316.86 in
1932, and receding to $26,923,638.58 in 1940. The reasons for this are the
regular fulfilment of debt retirement schedules under serial debenture pro-
visions or by maturity of sinking funds, and also the fact that much of the
cost of the increasing plant value has been financed out of reserves and surplus
without increasing the capital liabilities of the respective utilities. By this
procedure the funds of the systems are used to best advantage. Examination
of the results will also show that there is a steady decline in the percentage of
net liabilities to total assets; being from 88.0 per cent in 1913 to 17.4 per cent
in 1940. The equities in The Hydro-Electric Power Commission's systems
automatically acquired through the inclusion of sinking funds as part of the
cost of power are not taken into account in arriving at these percentages.
The second financial statement presents consolidated operating reports
for each year since "Hydro" service was inaugurated and combines the results
from the local municipal utilities of all the systems. After providing for every
cost of operation and fixed charges, including the standard provision for depre-
ciation, the combined operating reports show a net surplus of $1,655,300.24 for
1940. (See also diagrams in Foreword to Report.)
The five statements, "A" to "E", following the two consolidated reports
show the financial status of each municipal utility and the results of opera-
tions, giving classified information respecting revenue, operating costs, num-
ber of consumers and consumption, cost of power to municipalities, power
and lighting rates charged to consumers, etc. In statements "A" and "B".
the municipalities are arranged alphabetically under each system; in state-
ment "D" the municipalities are arranged in three groups — cities, towns and
small municipalities; in statements "C" and "E" all municipalities are
arranged alphabetically.
Statement *'A" presents the balance sheet of each electrical utility.
The plant values are shown under the general subdivisions specified in the
standard accounting system and the other items on the positive side of the
ledger which are included in total assets are self-explanatory with the excep-
tion, perhaps, of the item entitled "equity in H-E.P.C. stsyems." The sink-
ing fund portion of the cost paid year by year to the Commission for power is
for the purpose of ultimately retiring the capital liabilities incurred by the
Commission on behalf of the municipalities. A municipality's aggregate
equity in the Commission's systems at any time is the total of the sinking fund
payments that have been credited to it, together with interest. The total
sinking fund equity acquired by these municipalities to the end of 1940 is
shown in the consolidated balance sheet to be $52,457,676.76.
In conformity with a policy of service at cost to the customer, refunds by
cash or credit are made during the year in many municipalities from surplus
funds accrued to the credit of municipal services, such as street lighting, water
works, sewage disposal, etc., and to individual customers. The amounts of
the accumulated surplus rebated equalled, in different municipalities, from
five per cent to twenty per cent of the previous year's revenue. The total
thus returned to customers during the year 1940 amounted in round figures
to $337,000.00.
I
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 189
In each case the balance sheet includes the credit or charge representing
the difference between the monthly payments for power at interim rates and
the cost of power as ascertained by the Commission upon annual adjustment.
The reserves for depreciation, and the acquired equity in The Hydro-
Electric Power Commission's systems, are listed individually and totalled;
and under the heading "surplus" are included not only the free operating
surplus but the accumulation of sinking fund applicable to debenture debt
and also the amount of debentures already retired out of revenue.
The depreciation reserve now amounts to 28.5 per cent of the total depre-
ciable plant, while the depreciation reserve and surplus combined have already
reached the sum of $89,876,828.10, approximately 91.8 per cent of the total
plant cost.
Statement ''B" shows detailed operating reports for each municipal
electrical utility. It gives annual revenues from the various classes of con-
sumers; the items of expenditure which make up the total annual expenditure
and the sums set aside for depreciation. The population served by each local
utility and the number of consumers of each class are also shown.
The item "purchased power" in this statement includes the debit or credit
balances ascertained by the annual adjustment of the cost of power supplied
to the municipalities by the Commission.
Of the 295 municipal electric utilities included in this statement, 244
received from consumers revenue sufficient to meet in full all operating ex-
penses, interest, debt retirement instalments, and standard depreciation re-
serve allocation and to yield an aggregate net surplus of $1,768,767.53 for the
year; 41 were able to defray out of revenue all such charges except a portion
of the standard depreciation allocation aggregating $54,953.21, in the case of
10 utilities the revenue was less than the total operating expenses, interest and
debt retirement instalments by $8,924,15.
Statement "C" shows the installation of street lights in each munici-
pality together with the rates approved by this Commission, the revenue for
1940, and the cost per capita in each municipality.
Statement "D" presents statistics relating to the supply of electrical
energy to consumers in Ontario municipalities served by the Commission. It
shows the revenue, kilowatt-hour consumption, number of consumers, average
monthly consumption, average monthly bill and the net average cost per
kilowatt-hour both for domestic and for commercial light service in each muni-
cipality. For power service this statement shows the revenue, the number of
consumers and the average horsepower supplied by the municipal utility.*
For further reference to this informative statement, consult the special intro-
duction to it on page 326.
Statement "E" presents the cost per horsepower of the power provided
for and delivered to the municipalities by the Commission, and the local rates
to consumers in force in the respective municipalities, during the year 1940,
for domestic service, for commercial light service and for power service.
*The statistics include retail power only. Wholesale industrial power as supplied by the
Commission direct, is reported in Section IX.

Note: The "Cost to municipality in 1940" represents the charges billed to the municipality
by the utility for street lighting service in the calendar year. This total charge differs in some
cases from the total computed for the installation at the rates shown, for the following reasons: —
First: Certain equipment may have been in service for less than twelve months. Second: More
equipment than shown for December 31 may have been in ser\ice earlier in the year.
••Population not shown in Government statistics, s Series system, tn Multiple system.
ttCertain additional street lighting costs for special service are paid direct in form of
debenture charges.

326 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
STATEMENT "D"
Statistics Relating to the Supply of Electrical Energy to
Consumers in Urban Municipalities Served by
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
Regarding the results of Hydro operation from the standpoint of the
consumers, the following tabulation gives much useful and interesting infor-
mation. For each main class of service in each urban municipal utility receiv-
ing power at cost from the Commission, Statement "D" lists the revenue, the
consumption and the number of consumers, together with unit average costs
and consumptions and other pertinent data.
The policy and practice of the Commission has been, and is, to make as
widespread and beneficial a distribution of electrical energy^ as possible, and to
extend to ever\^ community that can economically be reached by transmission
lines, the benefit of electrical service. Even where, in certain localities, by
reason of the distance from a source of supply or on account of the small
quantity of power required by the municipality, the cost per horsepower to
the municipality — and, consequently, the cost of service to the consumer —
must unavoidably be higher than in more favourably situated communities,
service has not been withheld when the consumers were able and willing to
pay the cost.
The accompanying diagram summarizes graphically certain data of
Statement "D" respecting the average cost to the consumer. It will be
observed that the total amount of energy- sold in municipalities where circum-
stances necessitate rates which result in the higher average costs to the con-
sumer is relatively insignificant. With respect to power service, it should be
noted that the statistics of Statement "D", and of the diagram, cover mainly
retail power service supplied to the smaller industrial consumers. The aver-
age amount of power taken by the industrial consumers served by the
municipalities is about 45 horsepower. The Commission serves certain
large power consumers direct on behalf of the various systems of municipalities.
It should be kept in mind that the revenues reported in Statement "D",
and used for purposes of calculating the net unit costs to the consumer, are
the total revenues contributed by the consumers, and provide, in addition to
the cost of power, sums specifically applicable to the retirement of capital,
and also operating surplus which is in part applied to retirement of capital
or extension of plant and is in part returned in cash to the consumers.
It should also be noted that average costs per kilowatt-hour or per horse-
power if employed indiscriminately as a criterion by means of which to com-
pare the rates or prices for electrical service in various municipalities, will give
misleading results. The average cost per kilowatt-hour, as given in State-
ment "D" for respective classes of service in each municipality, are statistical
results obtained by dividing the respective revenues by the aggregate kilowatt-
hours sold. As such, the data reflect the combined influence of a number
of factors, of which the rates or prices to consumers are but one factor. Owing
to the varying influence of factors other than the rates, it is seldom found that
in any two municipalities the average cost per kilowatt-hour to the consumers,
even of the same classification, is in proportion to the respective rates for ser-
vice. Instances even occur where for a class of consumers in one municipality,
the average costs per kilowatt-hour are substantially lower than for the same
class in another municipality, even though the rates are higher.

THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
With respect to domestic service, for example, instances may be observed
where two municipalities have identical prices or rates for domestic service,
but the average cost per kilowatt-hour to the consumer varies by as much as
50 per cent or more. Such variations are due principally to differences in the
extent of utilization of the service for the operation of electric ranges, water
heaters and other appliances, an indication of which is afforded by the statis-
tics of average monthly consumption.
In the case of power service, average unit costs are still less reliable as an
indication of the relative rates for service in different municipalities. In the
case of hydro-electric power supplied to industries at cost, the rate schedules
incorporate charges both for demand and for energy consumption, and thus,
although the quantity of power taken by a consumer — that is, the demand
as measured in horsepower — is the most important factor affecting costs and
revenues, it is not the only one. The number of hours the power is used in
the month or year — which, in conjunction with the power, determines the
energ\^ consumption, as measured in kilowatt-hours — also affects the costs
and revenues. Consequently, in two municipalities charging the same rates
for power service, the average cost per horsepower to the consumer will vary
in accordance with the consumers' average number of hours' use of the power
per month. A greater average energy consumption per horsepower increases
the average cost per horsepower and decreases the average cost per kilowatt-
hour to the consumer, and vice versa*
*In view of the fact that the data of Statement "D" have been misinterpreted in the making
of certain comparisons as to the cost of electricity in various territories, it is desirable to add
a word of caution respecting their significance. Essentially, the average cost or revenue per
kilowatt-hour is not a criterion of rates even with similar forms of rate schedules and for the same
class of service. Particularly is this true when revenues and consumptions of all classes of service
and of all kinds of rate schedules, are indiscriminately lumped together in order to deduce a
so-called "average cost or rate per kilowatt -hour" for all services.
In one cotnmnnity rates for each class of service, and the cost to every consumer in each class for
any given service and consumption, may be substantially higher than in anotJier community, and yet
there may be in the former community a lower "average revenue per kilotcatt-hour."

It will be observed that in Case A the rates both for residence and for power service are 33
per cent higher than in Case B, but the average revenue per kilowatt-hour is nearly 9 per cent less.
In this instance, the explanation lies in the relative quantities of energy sold to each class.
Service to large power consumers entails a smaller capital investment in distribution lines and
equipment and lower operating costs per kilowatt-hour delivered, than does servnce to domestic
and to commercial light consumers, and even where the rates for all classes of service are low.
produces a smaller average revenue per kilowatt-hour. Consequently, if one electrical utility
as compared with another sells a larger proportion of its energy for power purposes, its "average
revenue per kilowatt-hour" may easily be lower than that of the other utility even though its
rates for every class of service are substantially higher.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 329
Although the derived statistics of Statement *'D" are valueless as a means
of comparing the rates in one municipality with those in another, they never-
theless fulfil a function in affording a general measure of the economy of service
to consumers in the co-operating Ontario municipalities — an economy that
has resulted primarily from the low rates themselves, and secondarily from
the extensive use of the service that has been made possible by the low rates.
Actual bills rendered to typical consumers for similar service under
closely comparable circumstances constitute the best basis for making com-
parisons. In researches respecting rates to consumers therefore the actual
rate schedules of Statement "E" should be employed, and not statistics of
average revenues per kilowatt-hour, as these are valueless for rate comparisons
- — and particularly so when all classifications of service are combined.
In any consideration of the relative economies of electrical service in the
various municipalities — whether based on the actual rates for service as set
forth in Statement "E", or on the derived statistics resulting from the rates
and other factors as presented in Statement "D" — full account should be
taken respectively of the influence upon costs of such factors as the size of
the municipality, the distance from the source of power, the features of the
power developments, the sizes and concentrations of adjacent markets for
electricity, and the sizes and characters of the loads supplied under the
various classifications by the local electrical utility to the consumers.
In Statement "D" account has been taken of the sizes of municipalities by
grouping them according to whether they are (i) cities — over 10,000 popula-
tion; (ii) towns of 2,000 to 10,000 population; or (iii) small towns (under 2,000
population), villages, and suburban areas in townships (which are comparable
in respect of conditions of supply to the smaller towns and villages). The
populations are also given, and the situation of any municipality with respect
to transmission lines and power supplies may be ascertained by consulting the
maps at the end of the Report.
A feature of the electrical service in Ontario municipalities served by The
Hydro-Electric Power Commission is the strikingly large average annual con-
sumption per domestic consumer. There are very few Ontario urban muni-
cipalities where the average annual consumption per domestic consumer is
less than 600 kilowatt-hours. Of the 87 cities and towns with populations
of 2,000 or more — in which over 85 per cent of the domestic consumers of
the undertaking are served — no less than 78 have an average annual con-
sumption per domestic consumer in excess of 1,000 kilowatt-hours; of these,
56 have an average annual consumption per domestic consumer in excess of
1,500 kilowatt-hours, and 25 have an average annual consumption per
domestic consumer in excess of 2,000 kilowatt-hours.
The high average consumption for domestic service results essentially
from the policy of the undertaking in providing service "at cost"; the rate
schedules designed according to this principle automatically encourage liberal
use of the service. Under the standard rate schedules employed by Ontario
municipalities, follow-up rates of 1 cent and 1.25 cents (less 10 per cent) are
in common use, and as a rule even where the higher initial rates per kilowatt-
hour obtain, it is only necessary for the domestic consumer to reach a monthly
charge of from $2.00 to $3.00 to obtain the benefit of a follow-up rate of 1.8
cents net. The cost of electric cooking is thus within reach of most of the
domestic consumers in Ontario. Electric water heating is also encouraged
by low fiat rates for continuous heaters and by installation of equipment
without capital cost to the consumer.

THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF
No. 26
STATEMENT
Statistics Relating to the Supply of Electrical Energy to Consumers
For Domestic Service, for Commercial Light Service
Group III— SMALL TOWNS (less than 2,000 population),
Note — The power used in the smaller places and rural districts is, and possibly must always
be, a relatively small proportion of the power distributed by the Commission. Thus, the power
used by the small municipalities in the following group, which includes small towns, villages and
certain suburban areas in townships, is less than 10 per cent of the power distributed by the
Commission to Ontario municipalities. This relatively small proportion of the total power,

344 THIRTY-THIRD ANNUAL REPORT OF No. 26
STATEMENT "E"
Cost of Power to Municipalities and Rates to Consumers for
Domestic Service — Commercial Light Service — Power Service
in Ontario Urban Municipalities Served by
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission
for the year 1940
In Statement "E" are presented the rate schedules apphcable to con-
sumers for domestic service, for commercial hght service and for power service
in each of the co-operating municipalities receiving service at cost through
The Hydro-Electric Power Commission.* The cost per horsepower of the
power supplied at wholesale by the Commission to the municipality, an
important factor in determining rates to consumers, is also stated.
Cost of Power to Municipalities
The figures in the first column represent the total cost for the year of the
power supplied by the Commission to the municipality, divided by the number
of horsepower supplied. Details respecting these costs are given in the "Cost
of Power" tables relating to the several systems, as presented in Section IX,
and an explanation of the items making up the cost of power is given in the
introduction to that Section.
Rates to Consumers
The Power Commission Act stipulates that "The rates chargeable by any
municipal corporation generating or receiving and distributing electrical power
or energy shall at all times be subject to the approval and control of the
Commission, "t in accordance with the Act and in pursuance of its fundamental
principle of providing service at cost, the Commission requires that accurate
cost records be kept in each municipality, and exercises a continuous super-
vision over the rates charged to consumers.
At the commencement of its operations, the Commission introduced
scientifically-designed rate schedules for each of the three main classes into
which the electrical service is usually divided, namely: residential or domestic
service, commercial light service, and power service, and the schedules in use
during the past year are presented in the tables of this statement.
*Except townships served as parts of rural power districts, for which consult latter part
of Section III.
tR.S.O. 1937. Ch. 62. Sec. 89.
1941 THE HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER COMMISSION 345
Donu'stic Service: Domestic rales apply to electrical service in residences,
for all household purposes, including lighting, cooking and the operation of all
domestic appliances.
During the past few years most of the urban municipal utilities have
further simplified the domestic rate structure by abolishing the service charge,
and making a suitable adjustment in the first consumption rate. Where the
service charge is retained at 33 and 66 cents gross per month the charge of
33 cents per month per service is made when the permanently installed
appliance load is under 2,000 watts, and the charge of 66 cents per month
when 2,000 watts or more.
Commercial Light Service: Electrical energy used in stores, offices, churches,
schools, public halls and institutions, hotels, public boarding-houses, and in
all other premises for commercial purposes, including sign and display lighting,
is billed at commercial lighting rates.
Water-Heater Service: For all consumers using continuous electric water
heaters, low flat rates are available consisting of a fixed charge per month
dependent on the capacity of the heating element and the cost of power to the
municipal utility. Such heaters are so connected that the electrical energy
they consume is not metered. For new installations the necessary equip-
ment, including heater, thermostat, efficient insulation for water-storage tank,
and wiring, is installed by a large number of municipal Hydro systems,
without capital cost to the consumer, f
Power Service: The rate schedules given for power service in Statement
"E" are those governing the supply of power at retail by each of the local
municipal utilities. The Commission serves direct, certain large power con-
sumers under special contracts, on behalf of the various systems of municipali-
ties.
The rates for power service, as given in the tables, are the rates for 24-hour
unrestricted power at secondary distribution voltage. For service at primary
distribution voltage the rates are usually five per cent lower than those stated.
In municipalities where load conditions and other circumstances permit, lower
rates are available for "restricted power," discounts additional to those listed
in the table being applicable.
The service charge relates to the connected load or to the maximum
demand, as measured by a 10-minute average peak, where a demand meter
is installed. The prompt payment discount of 10 per cent on the total
monthly bill is given for settlement within 10 days.
Under the tabulation of rates for power service there is a column headed
"Basis of rate 130 hours' monthly use of demand." This column shows
approximately the net annual amount payable for a demand of one horse-
power, assuming a monthly use of 130 hours, which includes 30 hours' use each
month at the third energ>^ rate. Broadly, the figures in this column serve to
indicate approximately the relative cost of power service in the different
municipalities listed.
tin addition, the municipal Hydro systems supply booster water-heating equipment to
furnish extra requirements beyond the capacity of the continuous heater ; current for the booster
heater is measured and charged for at the regular rates.

REPORT FOR 1940
OF
The Workmen^s Compensation Board
ONTARIO
Offices :
4th Floor, Canada Life Building,
350 University Ave., Toronto.
To His Honour the Lieutenant-Governor:
The Workmen's Compensation Board begs to submit its Report for the
year 1940.
GENERAL REVIEW
During the year 1940 employment in industry under Schedule 1 of The
Workmen's Compensation Act increased steadily and this increase has been
reflected in both assessments received and in accidents reported. The provisional
pay roll in Schedule 1 for 1940 was estimated at $628,161,000, at an average rate
of $1.02 on every $100 of pay roll; for 1939 the provisional pay roll was estimated
at $530,262,800, at an average rate of $1.06.
Accidents and Benefits
During 1940, there were reported to the Board 81,116 accidents, as com-
pared with 60,520 in 1939, and 59,834 in 1938.
The total benefits awarded during the vear amounted to $7,282,877.57, com-
pared with $6,152,407.53 during 1939, and $6,464,261.19 during 1938.
Of the total benefits awarded during the year, $5,874,627.42 was for com-
pensation, and $1,408,250.15 was for medical aid.
The total benefits awarded from the commencement of the Act (January 1,
1915) to January 1, 1941, amounted to $142,236,433.09, and the total accidents
reported during the same period were 1,454,793.
Assessments
The provisional assessments for 1940, including estimated adjustments,
amounted to $6,409,486.96, as compared with $5,637,916.40 provisionally esti-
mated and $5,830,424.56 actually assessed for 1939. For 1940 the average rate
was $1.02, as compared w^ith $1.06 for 1939, and $1.31 for 1938. The provisional
surplus to the credit of the classes at the end of 1940 was $2,013,381.13, as
compared with $2,648,711.01 at the end of 1939.
Finances
After outstanding liabilities are properly valuated, there remains a pro-
visional surplus of $2,013,381.13 standing at the credit of the classes comprising
Schedule 1, in addition to a Disaster Reserve of $239,782.27, a Reserve for
Depreciation of Securities of $897,708.95, an excess of $456,825.45 in the Silicosis
Account of cash over liabilities for silicosis in the mining industry. This makes
a total of $3,607,697.80, as compared with $4,251,721.90 at the end of 1939.
These assets in excess of liabilities are in addition to accrued interest on in-
vestments.
6 Workmen's Compensation Board No. 28
This balance of $3,607,697.80 is the working capital of the Board after pro-
vision has been made for all outstanding liabilities. It has been collected from
the employers largely by way of assessment, in addition to what has actually
been required to meet the losses arising from accidents and the expense of ad-
ministering the Act, and the cost of employers' safety associations.
In addition, there was at December 31, 1940, $26,187,374.37 in the Pension
Fund, which is not a reserve but a fund to pay pensions to widows, children, and
disabled workmen, which pensions run for life or lesser periods, and which were
calculated on an actuarial basis, the liability being equal in amount to the fund.
From time to time actuarial revaluations of the liabilities are made to ensure
the proper amount being kept in the fund.
Investments
All the Board's funds, with the exception of cash necessary for current opera-
tions, are invested. In Schedule 1 these investments, calculated on amortized
values, totalled $35,704,661.97. From investments a rate of 4.52 per cent, was
received in 1940, as compared with 4.38 in 1939.
At the end of 1940 there was in default in Schedule 1 $115,251.28, consisting
of $100,327.60 principal and $14,923.68 interest, as compared with a total of
$334,362.17 at the end of 1939, and $358,395.17 at the end of 1938. During
1940 the accruing interest in default totalled $2,949.37, as compared with
$48,534.09 during 1939, and $60,892.19 during 1938.
The Board's portfolio of investments shows 68 per cent, held in obligations
of the Dominion and Ontario Governments, and 32 per cent, in municipal and
county direct or guaranteed debentures.
Safety Associations
The Board has increased its aid to Safety Associations. During 1940,
$241,760.00 was paid, as compared with $218,511.25 in 1939. The Board has
appointed an Accident Prevention Officer as liaison with these Safety x\ssociations
and to assist them in securing data and material.
Rehabilitation
The work of rehabilitating injured workmen has been considerably "stepped
up," one department of the Board working full time, the Physiotherapy and
Occupational Therapy Clinics have been amalgamated, new premises leased, and
the work intensified.
Public Relations
The Board has continued to assist groups of employers and workmen better
to understand the workings of Workmen's Compensation, and has extended its
scope. More and more groups are asking for this service.
Contents of the Report
The chapters following contain the particulars of the Board's operations
during 1940, and the Appendix a resume of operations since January 1, 1915.

CHAPTER I
SCHEDULE I INDUSTRIES FOR 1940
As some of the industries covered by the Act are under the collective Ha-
bility system (the employer not being individually liable for accidents to his
workmen but being assessed to provide a general fund out of which accidents
occurring in his class of industry throughout the Province are taken care of)
and others are under the individual liability system (the employer being liable
to pay for accidents happening to his own workmen), separate financial state-
ments have to be made for each. The industries under the collective liability
system are included in Schedule 1, and those under individual liability in Schedule
2, the former comprising much the greater number.
This chapter deals with Schedule 1 industries for 1940. Schedule 2 in-
dustries are dealt with in Chapter II, while Chapter III deals with the work
handled in both schedules and the administration of the Act generally during
the year. Chapter IV with the different funds in both schedules and their stand-
ing at the end of 1940, and Chapter V gives financial and statistical information
for 1939 which was not available when the report for that year was made.
Provisional Financial Statement
The provisional financial statement for the industries in Schedule 1 for 1940
is contained in Table 1. To show the standing for the year, estimates have
to be made of adjustments of assessments according to actual pay rolls and on
the retroactive rates (the assessments for the year being first levied on an esti-
mate of pay roll and at a provisional rate), and estimates also have to be made of
compensation and medical aid still to be awarded for accidents happening dur-
ing the year which have not yet been finally disposed of by reason of the injured
workman being still under medical treatment or reports not being received.
These estimates contain also all liabilities for claims of previous years yet out-
standing and provision for claims of prior years which may subsequently be ad-
justed. Final figures for the year 1940 will be shown in the next subsequent
report in the same manner as the final figures for 1939 are shown in Table 15
of this report.
The difference is to be noted between the amount of compensation and medi-
cal aid awarded for the year's accidents and the amount awarded during the year.
The latter is partly for the prior year's accidents, while upon the other hand it
does not cover all the liability for the current year's accidents. The more cor-
rect system of charging each year as far as possible with its own accidents, and
for that purpose keeping the year's accounts open till the end of the subsequent
year, has been adopted, rather than the looser method of taking the amount
awarded during the year as the cost of the year's accidents and leaving alwa^^s
an outstanding liability unprovided for. For the purpose of information and
comparison, however, the amounts awarded during the year are shown in Chapter
III.
Accounts for Each Class
The industries in Schedule 1 are divided into classes, and as each class
(subject to any transfer that may be made to it from the Disaster Reserve in
any case of undue burden) bears its own accident cost — the employers in the class
being in effect a mutual insurance association — separate accounts have to be
kept for the different classes. Each class is credited with its own assessments,
its share of interest and other income, and with any transfer made to it from
8 Workmen's Compensation Board No. 28
Disaster Reserve, or credit from any other source, and charged with the cost of
its own accidents, its share of administration expenses, the cost of its safety
association if it has one, and with its share of any amount set aside for Disaster
Reserve.
The figures for each class, and the provisional surplus or deficit for the year,
and the balance forward from prior years, and the provisional surplus or deficit
for all years, are shown in Table 1. The final figures for each class and also
the figures for the different groups within the classes (as in Table 15) will be shown
in the next report. The assessments are fixed according to the accident cost and
other expenses and charges in each class and group and having regard to the other
income and credits.
The classes are numbered and the nature of the industries in each is shown
at the bottom of Table 1 and full enumeration of the industries will be found in
Schedule 1 of the Act and in the Board's rate book, the latter also showing the
grouping within the class.
Assessments and Other Credits
The total assessments in all classes in Schedule 1 for the year 1940, includ-
ing estimated adjustments, amounted to $6,409,486.96. In assessments are
included collections for default in making returns or payments and interest for
underestimate of pay roll. The other income and credits for the year consisted
of interest on investments and funds not elsewhere credited; reimbursement
for veteran cases received from the Department of Pensions and National
Health; cost of accidents collected under Section 107 for failure to furnish pay
roll prior to accident; recovery from third parties under Section 8; receipts by
virtue of special orders under Section 90 (5); collections under Section 114 (3)
from employers for failure to furnish particulars of accidents, refunds of accident
cost and from the Province of Ontario for blind workmen. Other income and
credits amounted to $236,788.90. The total income and credits for the vear are,
therefore, $6,646,275.86.
Compensation and Other Charges
The compensation and medical aid for Schedule 1 industries for the year,
including estimate for what is still to be awarded for accidents happening during
the year and for prior years' accidents, amounted to $6,202,407.44. There were
other outlays amounting to $748,161.07, including administration expenses of
$475,090.48; mine rescue work, $15,477.04; Section 8 disbursements, $2,688.91;
safety associations, $241,760.00; and occupational therapy, $13,144.64. The
total expenditures and charges for the year, including liability for pneumoconio-
sis outstanding of $1,420,064.29, and adjustments for prior vears' accidents, were
$8,370,632.80.
The provisional deficit for the year, including pneumoconiosis outstanding
and the carry-over for prior years' claims, was $1,724,356.94, which, deducted
from the surplus forward from prior years, of $3,737,738.07, makes a net pro-
visional surplus of $2,013,381.13 at December 31, 1940.
Number of Employers
The total number of employers listed in Schedule 1 at the end of 1940 was
24,385, as compared with 24,973 at the end of 1939. The number in each class
and group of industry is shown in Table 2.
Wage Expenditure
The estimated total wage expenditure in Schedule 1 industries for the year
1940, calculated on provisional figures, is $628,161,000, as compared with
$530,262,800, in 1939. The amounts for the different classes of industry are
shown in Table 3.
1941 Schedule 1 Industries for 1940
The Board has no similar data lor Schedule 2 and Crown industries as in
these the employers pay for accidents to their own workmen and are not re(|uired
to make pay roll returns or pay assessments upon them as in Schedule I. riic
pay roll would probably be about one-third that ol Schedule 1.
Average Rates of Assessment
Assessments in Schedidc 1 are in the form of a percentage of pay roll, and
the average rate or percentage over all the classes actually paid by the employers
can be ascertained by relating the total assessments to the total wage expendi-
ture. This, on the piovisional figures, gives an average rate of assessment for
1^)40 ol $l.t)li on every $100.00 of pay roll. 'I'he average rate for all years since
the commencement of the Act was $1.18. The decline in the over-all rate was
due in part to refund of differential rating plan penalties collected in 1937 and
1958 and later refunded.

CHAPTER II
SCHEDULE 2 INDUSTRIES DURING 1940
Table 4 is a statement of the compensation awarded and the moneys handled
during 1940 in Schedule 2 industries (in which the employer is individually liable
lor accidents to his workmen). Dominion Crown Cases under the Act by
Dominion legislation and Provincial Crown Cases referred to the Board for ad-
justment are included.
The total amount of compensation awarded in Schedule 2 industries and
Crown cases during 1940 was $1,022, 157.92. Of this amount, $211,040.37 was for
workmen of municipal corporations; $186,182.30 for steam railroads; $9,776.01
for electric railways; $86,782.06 for navigation companies; $1,951.10 for express
and sleeping-car companies; $5,769.05 for telephone and telegraph companies;
and $37.85 for all other industries in Schedule 2; $365,069.32 for Dominion
Crown Cases and $155,549.86 for Provincial Crown Cases. Of the total amount
awarded, $572,810.72 was for pensions in pension cases and $449,347.20 was for
cases not pension cases and for compensation not pensions in pension cases.
In pension cases, except in the case of municipal or government bodies or
departments thereof, not so desiring, deposits must be made by emploj'ers in
Schedule 2 industries. Particulars of these are given under "Deposits under
Section 28". Under "Claimants' Moneys" are included moneys held by the
Board under awards in which in the interest of the claimant, or for some other
reason, payment of the amounts held is deferred to a later date, as in the case of
minors. "Deposits under Section 32" are amounts deposited with the Board
to enable the Board to make prompt payments without waiting for receipt of
cheque from employer.
Employers in Schedule 2 are assessed their share of the expense of admini-
stration as set out in Table 8. For 1940 that share amounted to $17,550 00 as
compared with $16,944.00 in 1939, and $32,565.12 in 1938. Proportionate to
the amount of compensation awarded, administration expenses in Schedule 2
and Crown Cases were 3.94 per cent, in 1940 as compared with 4.06 per cent, in
1939, and 6.71 per cent, in 1938.
Further information as to Schedule 2 funds and particulars of Schedule 2
investments are given in Chapter IV, and in Tables 9 and 14, and in the Ap-
pendix.

*Half year only. fNo provision for medical aid.
The increase in benefits from the early years is largely" by reason of increase
in wages, compensation being for the most part a percentage of wages, and ad-
ditional industries have been covered, and some material changes were made
in compensation. The large total for 1920 is by reason of the retroactive in-
crease in widow's' and children's pensions, and the small amount awarded during
15
16 Workmen's Compensation Board No. 28
1915 is by reason of many 1915 accidents not being, nor capable of being, finally
disposed of till the following year. The amount of benefits awarded for each
year's accidents, as distinguished from the amount awarded during the year, is
shown in Chapter V.
Accidents Reported During the Year
During 1940, 81,116 accidents were reported to the Board. These in-
cluded some not serious enough to involve payment of either compensation
or medical aid and for which no claim was made, and others for which claims
were made but were not allowed by the Board.
At the close of the year there were 2,028 claims in assembly, as compared
with 1,447 at the end of 1939, notice of the accident having been given but re-
ports necessary to deal with the case not yet having been received.
The number of accidents reported each year, and the total number since the
commencement of the Act, are as follows:

ployer.

Awards Changed
In addition to claims compensated, as shown in Table 5, the Board in 1940
opened for further award 806 claims which had been settled previously.
Cheques, Assessments, Mail, and Callers
In all, 329,001 cheques were issued during 1940, an average of 1,112
daily, and there were 35,645 assessments made, including refunds. About
6,700 pieces of mail were handled daily, and the average number of off ice callers
was 78 a day.
Receipts and Payments
The receipts and payments during the year are shown in Table 6, the state-
ment for Schedule 2 including Crown cases. Explanation of the items and the
funds referred to will be found in other parts of the report. A summary of re-
ceipts and payments since the commencement of the Act is given in the Ap-
pendix.
Payments to Safety Associations
The safety or accident prevention associations are organizations of employers
established under the authority of the Act by the employers in 22 out of the 24
classes of industry. They are under the management of the employers but the
expenses are paid by the Board out of the Accident Fund.
The total amounts so paid are set out in Table 7, which table also shows the
amount paid out on account of mine rescue work in Class 5.
Administration Expenses
The administration expenses of the Board, analyzed under the different
headings, are shown in Table 8. The gross administration expenses during 1940
were $545,746.72, which included special statistical services for which refunds
have been received of $8,150.00, and accountable warrants of $3,785.00,
and salary advances to members of the staff of $725.57, making the total ad-
18 Workmen's Compensation Board No. 28
ministration expenses $535,086.15, as compared with $470,959.49 during 1939.
The employers pay the whole expense of the administration of the Act. The
amount is divided, according to the number of accidents handled, among
Schedule 1 (Accident Fund, Silicosis, Mine Rescue and Rehabilitation Clinic
Accounts), Schedule 2, and Dominion and Provincial Crown.
The amount charged to the Silicosis Account was $16,572.08; to the Re-
habilitation Clinic, $1,000.00; to Mine Rescue Work, $751.29; to Schedule 1 em-
ployers, $474,535.78; to Schedule 2, $17,550.00; to Dominion Crown, $17,732.00;
and to Provincial Crown, $4,945.00.
The cost of office furniture, fixtures, and equipment, including permanent
equipment, has always been charged to administration expenses in the year in
which payment therefor was made, and no entry for which has ever been made
in the standing of the funds. The value of this furniture and equipment at the
present time is estimated at about $36,000.
The total administration expenses for 1940 less expenses of supervising work
in connection with Silicosis, Rehabilitation, Clinic, and Mine Rescue Stations
(not properly administrative work) and handling claims for silicosis, were 7.07
per cent, of benefits awarded, being 7.58 per cent, of benefits awarded in Sche-
dule 1, and 3.94 per cent, in Schedule 2 and Crown cases.
A charge of $13,144.64 was made for occupational therapy, there being
$21,593.43 less $30.00 accountable warrants to members of staff, and $8,418.79
credit balance from physiotheraphy clinic, the two clinics being amalgamated
from October 1, 1940. This amount of $13,144.64 was pro rated among the
classes in Schedule 1.

CHAPTER IV
CONDITION OF FUNDS
A general statement of the condition of the funds In Schedule I and in Sched-
ule 2 is contained in Table 9, and particulars of the various funds and of the
Board's investments are given in Tables 10 to 14. A summary since the com-
mencement of the Act will be found in the Appendix.
Schedule 1 Funds
The Schedule 1 funds are known and referred to as the "Accident Fund".
They comprise, in addition to current funds out of which temporary payments
of compensation, medical aid and administration expenses are paid, the Pension
Fund, Disaster Reserve, and Compensation Deferred. The standing of the
Accident Fund, showing assets and liabilities, at December 31, 1940, is shown
in Table 9. The balance of assets in excess of liabilities at that date was
$3,150,872.35, being $239,782.27 Disaster Reserve, $2,013,381.13 standing at the
credit of the Classes December 31, 1940, and $897,708.95 reserve for depreciation
of securities. This is exclusive of office equipment and furniture mentioned in
Chapter III.
Pension Fund
The Pension Fund, representing the outstanding pension liability, comprises
the largest part of the funds standing to the credit of Schedule 1. The purpose
of the Pension Fund is to take care of future payments of pensions which have
already been awarded. Actuarial tables, embodying the contingencies of death
and remarriage, have been compiled to show for each age and kind of pension
the average amount (sometimes referred to as capitalized value) necessary to
complete pension payments. When a pension is awarded this average amount
is transferred from current funds to the Pension Fund. All payments of pensions
are made from the Pension Fund. Since the amount transferred in any one in-
stance is the average amount required, no re-transfer is made should a residue
be left at the expiry of the pension, nor is any additional transfer made should the
amount be exhausted before expiry of the pension.
Particulars of Pension Fund
Table 10 gives particulars of the Pension Fund for each class. The balance
in the fund at the commencement of 1940 was $24,838,874.49; $2,461,542.51
was transferred during the year for pension awards; $1,260,480.73 interest was
added and $2,373,523.36 was paid for pensions. The balance in the fund at the
end of the year was $26,187,374.37.
The transfers for pension awards during the year included $108,541.58 from
Silicosis Account to provide for pensions in cases of Silicosis in Class 5.
Disaster Reserve
The Disaster Reserve is a fund set aside under the provisions of Section 101
(2) of the Act to meet any unforeseen disaster or other circumstance which might
unduly burden the employers in any class of industry. The fund has been
accumulated by a transfer of one per cent, of the gross assessments up to the
end of 1922, and for the year 1928. These are the only moneys set aside or held
by the Board which do not directly cover liabilities actually incurred by reason
of accidents which have already happened.
23
24 Workmen's Compensation Board No. 28
The standing of the Disaster Reserve is shown in Table 11. The balance
at the end of 1940 was $239,782.27; $11,431.18 interest being added to the
$228,782.11 in the fund at the beginning of the year, and $1,363.25 being
withdrawn.
Reserve for Depreciation of Securities
During 1936 a reserve for depreciation of securities was established. This
reserve is made up of excess over book values when investments are sold, and up
to 1939 of excess interest not allocated to the Pension Fund, Disaster Reserve,
and Compensation Deferred. Withdrawals are made on refunding debentures

CHAPTER V
1939 OPERATIONS
This chapter deals with the year 1939, containing information which was not
available when the report for that year was made.
It gives the final financial statement for Schedule 1 mdustries for the year,
estimates of the adjustments of assessments and of the outstandmg compensa-
tion and medical aid having to be used in the provisional statement given in
Table 1 of the 1939 report; and it gives statistical information as to the accidents
which happened during 1939, their causes, the nature of the injuries suffered, the
number, time loss, total and average cost of the different classes of cases, and
the age, wage, nationality', and marital condition of the injured workmen.
This information is contained in Tables 15 to 26.
Final Financial Statement, Schedule 1, 1939
Table 15 gives the final financial statement for Schedule 1 industries for
1939, provisional figures for which were given in Table 1 of the 1939 report. It
shows the income and credits and the expenditures and charges and the balance
for each class of industry; also the actual assessments and accident cost and other
items of income and expenditure for each class, and the assessments and accident
cost for each group of industry within the class. The list of industries included
in each class and group will be found in the Board's rate book, the list of industnes
in the different classes is also printed with the Act, and their general nature is
indicated at the bottom of Table 1 of this report.
The net income and credits for all classes for the year were $6,129,577.52,
and the net expenditure and charges $6,035,438.42, leaving a surplus for the year
of $94,139.10. Adding the surplus forward from prior years of $3,643,598.97,
leaves a net actual surplus of $3,737,738.07, as compared with a provisional or
estimated surplus of $2,648,711.01, the disparity being largely due to claims
(especially for pneumoconiosis) for accidents occurring in 1939 and prior years
not being finally disposed of in 1940.
Assessments and Accident Cost
The assessments and accident cost (the latter comprising compensation and
medical aid and payments on account of rehabilitation but not including pay-
ments from the Silicosis Account) in Schedule 1 for each year since the commence-
ment of the Act, and the totals to the end of 1939, are as follows:

Pay Roll and Rates of Assessment
As assessments are in the form of a percentage of pay roll, the average rate
paid by the employers in Schedule 1 can be determined by dividing the total
assessments for the year by the total pay roll. The following table shows the
total amount of pay roll and the total assessments and the average rate for $100
pay roll for each year:

Final Accident Figures, 1939
Table 16 shows the number of accidents happening in 1959 (in all industries
under the Act) for which payment of compensation or medical aid was made.
The total number was 53,110, of which 215 were death cases, 1,020 involved some
degree of permanent disability, 21,203 temporary disability cases, and 30,672
cases which involved medical aid only. Ordinarily Schedule 2 cases involving
medical aid only are not included, as in these cases medical aid is furnished
directly by the employer.

Accident Frequencies, Schedule 1
Comparison of accident frequencies can be made by correlating the number
of accidents with the total number of full-year workers, data for this being avail-
able, however, only in Schedule 1. Eliminating accidents in which medical aid
only was paid, the number of accidents for each 100 full-year workers for the
different vears are:

Statistical Distributions
Tables 17 to 26 give statistical details regarding accidents and workmen,
including, where the data is available. Schedule 2 and Crown cases as well as
Schedule 1. Considerations of space preclude more extensive tabulations, but
the original material is retained and still fuller information is always available
concerning the accidents in any of the different classes of industry.
Month of Occurrence
Table 17 gives the month of occurrence of all accidents. The month in
which the greatest number of accidents occurred during 1939 was October, with
5,536, and the month with the lowest number was April, with 3,112.
Accidents According to Locality
The distribution of accidents according to the county or district in which
they occurred is contained in Table 18. York had the highest number, with
13,259, and next in order were: Temiskaming-Cochrane, with 5,946; W'entworth,
with 2,905; Thunder Bay, with 2,426; and Essex with 2,398. The greatest num-
ber of deaths (35) were in Temiskaming-Cochrane; there were 27 in York; 17
in Thunder Bay; 15 in Sudbury; and 9 in each of Lincoln and W elland.
Time Loss, Age, and Wage
In Table 19 are given the average age and wage of workmen receiving com-
pensation and the total and average time loss for each class of industry, and for
each category of disability. The average age for 1939 was 36.28 years. The
average wage for 1939 was $20.40, as compared with $19.84 for 1938, and $19.97
for 1937. The total time loss in temporary disability cases was 572,553 days, or
an average of 27.00 days, as compared with an average of 27.07 davs in 1938 and
27.25 days in 1937.
Compensation and Medical Aid Costs, Schedule 1
Table 20 contains the total and average cost of compensation and medical
aid by classes in Schedule 1 for each kind of disability.
The total cost of all accidents was $5,371,473.15, of which $4,201,888.72
was for compensation (including payments for rehabilitation but not for silicosis
cases) and $1,169,584.43 for medical aid (except in silicosis cases).
Of the $4,201,888.72 compensation cost, $1,812,604.85 was for temporary
disability cases, $1,675,797.70 was for permanent disability cases, and $713,486.17
was for death cases.
The average cost of temporary disability cases was $141.69, of which $100.39
was for compensation and $41.30 was for medical aid, the average in 1938 beinc

The average cost of permanent disability cases was $2,033.51, of which
$338.81 was for temporary disability, $1,457.33 was for permanent disability,
and $237.37 was for medical aid.
The average cost of death cases, where there were dependants, was $5,971.55,
and the average cost of all death cases was $4,558.87, of which $28.29 was for
1941 1939 Operations 45
temporary disability, $129.91 for burial expenses, (including transportation of
body), $4,275.39 for deatli benefits, and $127.28 for medical aid.

The average cost of medical aid in medical aid only cases was $6.03, as com-
pared with $5.99 in 1938 and $5.76 in 1937.
Allegiance of Injured
Table 21 shows the allegiance of injured workers who received compensation,
as taken from their own reports. There were 20,359, or nearly 91 per cent, of
British allegiance, and 2,079 of foreign allegiance. Among the aliens the most
numerous were: Finns, Poles, Russians, (including Ukrainians), Italians, Jugo-
slavians, and Czecho-Slovaks.
Sex and Marital Condition of Injured
Table 22 gives the sex and marital condition of those receiving compensation.
There were 21,775 males and 663 females. Of the males, 12,925 were married
and 172 of the females. There were 390 widowers and 37 widows.
Duration of Disability
Table 23 shows the week of termination of temporary disability cases. In
nearly 41 per cent, of the cases the disability terminated in from one to two weeks.
In 45 cases the disability lasted for more than a year.
Nature of Injuries
The first part of Table 24 shows the number of various kinds of temporary
disability injuries in the different classes of industry; the second part gives an
analysis of the permanent disability cases, showing the number of injuries to
the several parts of the body and the percentage of impairment of earning
capacity; and the third part of the table shows the number and nature of the
industrial disease cases.
In 1939, there were 6,365 cuts, lacerations, and punctures; 3,738 bruises,
contusions and abrasions; 3,522 fractures; 3,703 sprains, strains, twistings and
wrenchlngs; 1,402 crushes; 778 scalds and burns; 607 injuries to eyes; 176 dis-
locations; and 396 herniae.
Among the 1,020 permanent disability cases were 13 permanent total dis-
ability cases, and 355 exceeded ten per cent, of working capacity.
There were 24 industrial disease cases, of which 12 were temporary dis-
ability cases, 7 were permanent disabdity cases, and 5 were death cases.
Included In these totals are 13 cases of silicosis and pneumoconiosis, 10 cases of
lead poisoning, and 1 case of cyanide poisoning.
Causes of Accidents
Table 25 gives the prime causes of accidents in 1959. iMachlnery was
responsible for 11,588 out of a total of 53,110, or nearly 22 per cent, of all cases,
as compared with 22 per cent. In 1938, and 18 per cent. In 1937.
Death Cases
The nature of awards, the number, relationship, and residence of dependants,
are shown in Table 26.

THE WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION BOARD OF ONTARIO.
Toronto, Ont.
Dear Sirs:
I have completed a continuous audit of the books of the Board for the year ended 51st
December, 1940, and have obtained all the information and explanations I have required.
In my opinion the attached statements of Receipts and Pa^Tnents, Table 6, Schedules No.l
and No. 2, truly and fairly set forth the cash transactions of the Board for the year ended 51st
December, 1940.
Bank balances at the close of the period have been verified by direct communication with
the Board's bankers.
The amortized book value of the investments held by the Board at 51st December, 1940, was
$59,184,989.68 and I confirmed by a physical examination the securities representing these
investments as at that date. Debenture principal and coupons, due and unpaid at 51st December,
1940. amounted to $115,251.28.
Respectfully submitted,
ALEXANDER G. CALDER,
Chartered Accountant.

The course was arranged in co-operation with the Ontario Fur Breeders'
Association and comprised lectures and demonstrations on the following
subjects:
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939
Mink Mating and Its Preparation.
Mink Raising Problems.
Problems in Making Good Pelts.
Mink Pelts Demonstration.
Research Work with Fur Animals.
Food Poisoning Investigations.
Projects at Government Illustration Stations.
Principles of Fox Breeding.
Fox Raising Problems.

Special Course for Veterinarians
During the month of July a special course for graduate veterinarians
was provided in co-operation with the Ontario Veterinary Association.
There were approximately 125 in attendance and the programme comprised
the following topics :
Chemical Tests for Urinalysis.
Encephaloynyelitis of Horses.
Plans for the Control of Bang's Disease.
Treatment and Control of Parasitic Diseases.
Modern Methods Employed in the Sanitary Control of Dairy Products.
Enteritis of Cats.
Kennel Management and the Control of Distemper.
Diseases of Swine.
Regional Anatomy for Intravenous Medication.
The Relationship of Faulty Nutritioyi to Disease.
During the months of December and January a series of lectures and
demonstrations were given to students attending the Farmers' Short
Course and Dairy Course at the Ontario Agricultural College. The course
embraced the following topics :
Prevention and Control of Animal Insect Pests.
Mineral Deficiencies Affecting Farm Animals.
Preventable Diseases of Horses and Cattle.
Preventable Diseases of Sheep and Sivine.
Care and Management of Breeding Animals.
Care and Management of the Young at Birth.
Cleaning and Disinfection of Stables.
Examination of Horses for Soundness.
Research and Investigation
During the year considerable time was devoted to research and
investigational work. Some of the diseases receiving attention are briefly
summarized herewith and detailed reports relating thereto are appended
separately.
Malignant Equine Influenza: Two outbreaks of influenza affecting
horses were found to be of unusual interest on account of their malignant
character. A report of these is appended.
Isolation of the Virus of Equine Encephalomyelitis by Blood Culture:
A report is submitted describing a method for the isolation of the Eastern
strain of encephalomyelitis virus. The chief advantages of the method
are that the virus may be isolated during the course of the disease, hence
the isolation and diagnosis may be made much earlier than when post-
mortem methods are employed.
THE REPORT OF No. 29
Fatalities Among Piglets Due to Overdoses of Iron: Quite frequently
losses have been reported among suckling pigs following the administration
of reduced iron as a preventive against anemia. In all of the cases investi-
gated, the amount of iron had been far in excess of the prescribed dose.
Experiments made indicate that even a fairly large dose of reduced iron
does not have a fatal effect upon perfectly healthy pigs. However, pigs
with poor resistance or which have a sub-clinical infection may succumb
rapidly to an overdose.
Prevailing Diseases of Swine: During the year, more especially
throughout the fall and winter months, diseases of swine were particularly
stressed. The diseases which most frequently came under observation were
hog cholera, swine erysipelas, necrotic enteritis, and swine plague. A
report is submitted dealing with some of the important aspects of swine
diseases.
Experimental Hemorrhagic Septicemia in Swine: A large number of
experiments have been undertaken to produce typical hemorrhagic septi-
cemia infection in swine. These experiments indicate that it is extremely
difficult to reproduce in healthy swine a disease comparable to the natural
infection with hemorrhagic septicemia. The results are described in an
appended report.
Fatal Anaphylaxis Following the Use of Anti-Hemorrhagic Septi-
cemia Bacterin: Two occurrences of severe fatal anaphylaxis are de-
scribed involving the less of several animals. Attention is drawn to the
seriousness of such unfortunate consequences during immunization and
the necessity for guardir.g against anaphylactic shock is em.phasized.
Stiff Lamb Disease and Aphospho7-osis : An outbreak of dire.ns? amon.?:
h\mbs is reported which responded to the administration of large doses
of phosphoric acid. The resemblance between stiff lamb disease and acute
phosphorous deficiency is noted.
Clinical and Extension Service
This service has been developed to meet the needs of veterinarians
and owners requiring assistance. The nature and extent of the services
rendered are briefly summarized as follows:
Animal Clinics: Clinics are held each week throughout the college
session to which animals of all classes may be brought for observation.
All animals are carefully examined and medical treatment is prescribed
and surgical operations performed as may appear desirable. The greater
part of the clinical service is furnished during the session when the
students are in attendance. Several case reports are appended to illustrate
Iho scope of this useful work.
Horses: The majority of these were surgical cases, of v/hich 175
were successfully treated. Approximately 100 visits were made to extend
treatment to horses at the Ontario Agricultural College. In addition. 62
horses were vaccinated against virus encephalomyelitis.
Cattle: Many of the cattle cases represented herd conditions. Among
the diseases predominating being Bang's disease, sterility, mastitis, calf
scours, calf pneumonia, Johne's disease, actinomycosis, and hemorrhagic
septicemia.
In co-operation with the various live stock breeders' associations,
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939
definite plans have been arranged for the control of Bang's disease on an
experimental basis, as follows:
1. By testing individual herds and segregating or removing the reactors.
2. By testing herds in prescribed areas and removing all reactors.
3. By the adoption of calfhood vaccination in badly affected herds.
A total of 25,519 cattle were tested under these plans and the results
are contained in a separate report.
Swine: There has been a marked increase in the number of swine
cases. These comprised surgical cases and many diseases affecting litters
and herds. Among the diseases predominating were anemia of young pigs,
gastro-enteritis, pneumonia, parasitism, nutritional deficiencies, hemor-
rhagic septicemia, swine erysipelas, necrotic enteritis, and hog cholera.
Sheep: The majority of these cases represented flock maladies and
comprised parasitism, hemorrhagic septicemia, goitre, nutritional im-
balances, pregnancy and lambing troubles.
Small Animals : Over 200 dogs and cats were submitted to the clinic
for examination and treatment. While the majority were surgical cases,
there were also a large number of disease conditions treated, mcludmg
mange, eczema, distemper, chorea, gastritis, and dietary conditions.
Fur-Bearing Animals: The diseases and general welfare problems
of fur-bearing animals on ranches were given all possible consideration.
Considerable investigational work was undertaken relating to losses occur-
ring on mink ranches in York and Perth Counties.. The disease proved to
be distemper. The experimental use of hyperimmune serum and tissue
vaccine as agents in the control of distemper was tried in both mink and
ferrets but they appeared to be of doubtful value. Diagnostic work was
also undertaken in the examination of specimens sent in for laboratory
examination. The material submitted included food substances and fecal
matter from fur-bearing animals. The laboratory work also mcluded
autopsies on 142 animals, as shown in the following outline:

Preparation of Antigen: Ninety-six thousand six hundred test doses
of S. pidlorum antigen, and positive and negative control sera, were pre-
pared and supplied to registered veterinarians for the agglutination test
of S. pullorum infection. Seventeen thousand test doses of Br. abortus
antigen were distributed to veterinarians for the agglutination test for
Infectious Abortion of cattle (Bang's disease).
Agglutination Tests: During the year 25,519 blood samples were
submitted to the agglutination test for Bang's disease. Included in this
number are 3,153 from cattle intended for Export or Exhibition purposes,
and 3,933 from cattle in herds under Ontario Veterinary College super-
vision.
The results of these tests are as indicated in the following table:

Poultry Laboratory Service
This consists chieflv in the routine examination of diseased poultry
sent or brousrht to the laboratorv. No serious outbreaks of disease were
encourtered, but the incidence of coccidiosis, pullorum disease of chicks
and nutritional ailments remains at about the same level. In a great many
instances these conditions could have been prevented if proper control
measures had been employed.
Advice is always given as to the handling of the flock to prevent the
spread of infectious diseases.

CO-OPERATIVE PLANS FOR THE CONTROL OF BANG'S DISEASE
C. D. MCGILVRAY
In co-operation with live stock breeders and practicing veterinarians,
the following plans are provided for the detection and control of Bang's
disease.
Routine Testing of Individual Herds: This plan is available for the
blood testing of herds by veterinarians in general practice for their clients.
The blood samples are submitted by the veterinarian and the blood tests
are made by the college staff. The results of the tests are reported on
test charts furnished by th's coH'^ge. The test^ conducted under this plan
during the current year are as follows :
Total number of cattle tested — 21,341.
" negative 17,312 — approximately 811/2%
" " " doubtful 1,088— " 5 %
" positive 2,941— " 131/2%
Supervised Testing of Herds hi Prescribed Areas: Where a sufficient
number of owners in a prescribed area desire to have their herds tested
and supervised for the control of Bang's disease (Contagious Abortion in
Cattle) the Department of Agriculture, through the Ontario Veterinary
College, will co-operate with owners and their veterinarians under the
following arrangement :
1. That a group of 10 or more owners occupying contiguous premises
in a prescribed area may submit a petition or signed request on a form
supplied by the Department signifying their desire to have their herds
tested for the control of Bang's disease under the supervision of a qualified
registered veterinarian.
2. Under the proposed plan the Department will assume payment of
the veterinarian's fees at the rate of 20 cents for each animal tested or
any other basis mutually agreeable, and will also provide the necessary
test charts, the sterilized vials for the blood samples, and make the re-
quired agglutination tests, free of charge.
3. The cost or expense of any additional work or extra visits by the
attending veterinarian, apart from that required in the actual testing of
cattle for the control of Bang's disease, shall be borne entirely by the
owner of the herd.
4. That owners will agree to have their herds placed under either one
of the following plans, depending on the extent to which they are affected,
as shown by the test results :
Terms Under Which Herds are Accepted:
Plan A :
1. By having all cattle in the herd over 12 months of age blood tested.
2. If less than 10% of the herd reacts to the test, that the reactors will
be immediately removed from the herd.
12 THE REPORT OF No. 29
3. That the herd be retested at intervals of 30 to 60 days until the
entire herd is negative.
4. That any additional reactors be likev^ise removed from the herd.
5. That all reacting cattle be ear-marked with the letter B, or removed
direct under a permit to an abattoir for slaughter without undue delay,
and that they be kept segregated pending their removal.
6. That reacting cattle must not be sold to enter other herds in order
to prevent them creating new centres of infection or disseminating
infection.
7. That new additions to the herd be obtained only from other nega-
tive herds, or have been submitted to the test before being admitted to
the herd, and be kept segregated for 30 days and again tested.
8. That the premises be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected from time
to time as may be required.
9. That the cattle showing a definite reaction to the test shall not
be retested.
10. That cattle showing a doubtful reaction to the test shall be re-
tested again in from 30 to 60 days. Animals again doubtful to the retest
may then be regarded as reactors and dealt with accordingly.
11. That the non-reacting cattle to the initial test shall be again
retested in from 30 to 60 days after the removal of the reactors.
12. That after a negative test of the entire herd is obtained, that the
herd shall be submitted to a further test in three months' time, and again
in from three to six months' time, and to semi-annual or annual tests
thereafter.
13. That cows shall not be taken to other herds to be bred unless they
are definitely know'n to be negative herds and likewise no cows from other
herds shall be bred unless they also are from known negative herds.
14. That when all the animals in a herd are negative to the test,
owners will then be expected to take the necessary steps to have their
lierdn listed as negati\e herds under the provisions and regulations of the
Health of Animals Branch.
15. That failure on the part of an owner to comply with the purpose
and intent of the plan for the control of Bang's disease in their herd shall
be regarded as sufficient cause for the cancellation of Departmental help
and co-operation.
Plan B:
1. In the case of any herd having over 10% reactors, and the owner
is unable to bear the immediate sacrifice of so many of his cattle, that an
agreement be entered into with the view of ultimately developing a clean
negative herd from the non-reactors and the calves with the least material
sacrifice.
Areas Established
Under the foregoing arrangement three prescribed areas have been
established, known respectively as :
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939 18
1. Schomberg Area: Includes 38 herds comprising 543 cattle.
2. Durham Area: Includes 31 herds comprising 315 cattle.
3. Northumberland Area: Includes 55 herds comprising 870 cattle.
Results of Tests in Prescribed Areas
The tests of all cattle in these areas have not been completed as yet,
and the results furnished cover only the Schcmberg and Durham areas:
Total number of cattle tested — 913.
" negative 820 — approximately 90%
" doubtful 66— " 7%
" positive 27— " 3%
Following the completion of the initial tests, all reactors have been
removed and further tests will be made at regular intervals until all
reactors have been detected. Owners will then be expected to take the
necessary steps to prevent reinfection and to have their herds listed as
negative herds under the regulations of the Health of Animals Branch.
Selection of Herds For Calfhood Vaccination
A selection and test was made of 201 herds comprising 7,954 cattle.
Following the test the herds were grouped into two classes as being either
slightly affected or badly affected.
(a) Slightly Affected Herds: In this class were included all herds
containing less than 15% reactors. Following the initial test the reactors
were removed and the doubtful ones segregated. Further tests were made
in from 30 to 60 days until there were no further reactors. The owners
were then advised to have their herds placed under the supervision of the
Health of Animals Branch for further tests in order to have them
officially listed as negative herds.
This group comprised 145 herds and the results of the initial test
were as follows :
Total number of cattle tested — 5.287.
" negative 2.375 — approximately 92%
" " doubtful 101— " 3%
" positive 144— " 5%
(b) Supervised Calfhood Vaccination in Badly Affected Herds: In
this class were included all herds containing over 15% reactors. Vaccina-
tion was restricted to calves between four and eight months of age. The
vaccine used was Cotton's No. 19 strain Brucella abortus. Following
vaccination the calves are being tested at regular intervals of from 30 to
60 days until their first gestation period is completed. The experimental
or controlled use of vaccination was commenced during the month of May,
1938, and sufficient time has not elapsed to properly determine its value
This group comprises 56 herds containing 2,667 animals of which 999
were calves of vaccination age.
The results of the tests before vaccination were as follows :
Total number of cattle tested — 2,667.
" negative 1,686 — approximately 63%
" " doubtful 151— " 5%
" positive 830— " 32%

Comments on the Results Following Vaccination
All owners were definitely requested to furnish a complete statement
as to the results experienced in their herds. The replies received were all in
complete agreement that no ill effects were observed in any of the calves
following vaccination. Every owner likewise desired to continue having
their calves vaccinated. In checking up the test results it does not appear
to be of any particular significance whether the calves are negative or
positive to the test before being vaccinated. A very considerable number
(approximately 20 ^ ) of the calves negative to the test before vaccination
remained negative for one month or longer after vaccination.
Some of these calves then became positive to one or more subsequent
monthly tests and then became negative to further tests in about two or
three months' time. Quite a number of the vaccinated calves seemed to
shift from a negative phase to a positive phase from time to time, or from
positive to negative from time to time. Likewise many of the calves
positive to the test before vaccination were negative to the test within
from 30 to 90 days following vaccination.
In fact, the test results in vaccinated calves of that age may not be
of any particular significance. Under the plan being followed the vacci-
nated calves are being kept in the abortion affected herds and thus con-
tinually exposed to possible infection. After all the value of calfhood
vaccination may ultimately require to be determined on the protection
afforded in reducing the abortion rate in heifers during their first and
second pregnancies.
In the meantime no difficulty has been reported by owners as to the
vaccinated heifers failing to conceive to service.

DISEASES OF SWINE
F. W. SCHOFIELD AND R. T. INGLE
During the last few years diseases of swine have become a matter
of ever-increasing importance. Most farmers now realize that pigs raised
in a scientific manner may be quite a profitable undertaking. They are
alert to the serious nature of disease and are usually willing to co-operate
in methods of control and prevention.
The veterinarian, who only a few years ago was rarely called upon
to treat sick swine, now finds that a good portion of his revenue is derived
from this source. At the same time he is greatly handicapped by an
inadequate knowledge of the common diseases of these animals. Anyone
who has studied the infectious diseases of swine discovers that it is far
from easy to make a correct diagnosis in many cases due to the similarity
between the symptoms manifested in the acute infections. Even when
the disease has been studied clinically and a careful post-mortem exami-
nation made, the bacteriological findings not infrequently upset the
diagnosis which had been made on clinical and pathological grounds. True,
there are typical cases of hog cholera, swine erysipelas and hemorrhagic
septicemia which allow of ready diagnosis, but a large minority are
atypical and confusing.
Due to a special grant from the Department of Agriculture, we have
been able to carry on some special research into diseases of swine which
we believe will be productive of good results as the work progresses. A
brief note follows dealing with some important and interesting aspects of
the most common diseases of swine which we have encountered during
the past year.
Hog Cholera
During the winter months outbreaks of this disease occurred at many
points in the western part of the Province. In many instances the outbreak
was the first recorded for that particular area. The disease was chiefly
spread through the medium of the small pig sales which in recent years
have sprung up all over the Province. Operating in conjunction with the
sales are the live stock truckers who become effective agents in spreading
the disease. Many a farmer bought pigs from a trucker only to find out
in a day or two that the pigs were diseased and that hog cholera had been
introduced to the premises.
Mention should be made of the work already reported, in our finding
a constant leuco-penia in cases of hog cholera.^ This significant blood
change was first reported by Kernkamp. Several others have confirmed
his findings. In some cases a white cell count is a distinct aid in diagnosis.
Petechial hemorrhages in the cortex of the kidney and in the mucous
surface of the bladder proved to be the most diagnostic changes encount-
ered at post-mortem. In over 200 post-mortem examinations made during
the year the spotted kidney has only been seen on one occasion, apart from
cases which later proved to be hog cholera.
Swine Erysipelas
This disease is definitely on the increase and is occurring among swine
to a much greater extent than at present recognized. During the year
16 THE REPORT OF No. 29
many outbreaks have been diagnosed either by clinical or bacteriological
examination. The agglutination test with "Schroeder's antigen" has
proved to be of definite worth in several doubtful outbreaks. In one out-
break the owner lost ten out of twenty pigs, and most of the remaining
pigs exhibited a dry gangrene involving the skin of the back and extending
from the tail to the ears. Hemorrhagic lesions in the skin, or the presence
of numerous hive-like elevations of the skin with or without stiff or painful
joints are the symptoms most frequently seen. Swine erysipelas serum
has given uniformly good resulcs in acute cases. The infection seems to
persist for a long time in a piggery.
Hemorrhagic Septicemia
Acute and fatal infection of swine with the P. sidseptica does un-
doubtedly occur in both young and mature swine. The organism is by far
the commonest to be found in cases of chronic pig pneumonia. The fre-
quency with which it is responsible for acute outbreaks of disease among
swine is a debatable matter. Available evidence would indicate that it does
not occur with anything like the frequency attributed to it. In our experi-
mental work we have found it most difficult to infect healthy swine even
when pure cultures of recently isolated strains are used.
The practice of inoculating swine with anti-hemorrhagic septicemia
bacterin has become widespread among the farmers. It is purely emperical
and should not be encouraged.
In the pulmonary form the lung shows congestion, hemorrhage and
cedema. The lesions are much more marked in the anterior and medial
lobes. The oedema is sometimes even more pronounced than in swine flu.
The bronchial lymph nodes are acutely inflamed. In fact most of the body
lymph glands shows acute inflammatory change. If the nasal passages
are exposed acute rhinitis is commonly present. In the intestinal form
there is an acute gastro-enteritis. This is frequently associated with some
pulmonary change.
Sai^monella Infection
This has not been common ; only a few cases of genuine infection have
been recorded.
Swine Flu
This infection is quite common and in most cases the characteristic
post-mortem appearance of the lungs is present. In one very large piggery
every litter became ill at about two weeks of ago. Coughing, high tempera-
ture, loss of weight and anorexia were the chi^f symptoms. The mortality
was not high but the pigs failed to put on weight and remained in very
poor condition. A tissue vaccine was prepared from the diseased lung in
an early infection. This seemed to give good results when used as a
preventive. The H. suis is not uncommonly found when culturing infected
lungs.
Parasites
Ascaris infection is now rarely found, the majority of farmers "worm"
the pigs just before or after weaning. The beneficial results are very
apparent. Also, general sanitation has greatly improved.
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939 17
Mortality Among Piglets
We encountered a number of cases during the winter months of sows
losing their litters a day or two after birth. Death was due to septicemia.
The most prevalent organisms were streptococci, colon and P. sui.septica.
In almost all cases the feed had been poor in quality. We believe that
the absence of vitamin A was the chief cause for the lack of resistance.
The frequent lack of any green feed for months at a time is a serious
defect in the rations of many sows. Cod liver oil or some other vitamin-
bearing food must be fed during the winter months. Concentrated cod liver
oil such as haliver oil given during the first few weeks to the piglets
frequently has very beneficial results.
In conclusion, we would say that there is a large and important field
here and one that requires long, continued and systematic study before
the many important problems which it presents can be solved.

FATALITIES AMONG PIGS FOLLOWING OVERDOSES OF IRON
F. W. SCHOFIELD AND R. T. INGLE
Since the recognition a few years ago of anemia as a very prevalent
and fatal disease among piglets, iron, as a preventive, has been used on
an ever increasing scale. In most cases the iron is administered by the
owner who has little idea of the size of the correct dose. Iron as ferri
reductum (reduced iron) is the form chiefly used, and this, due to its
extremely fine nature, has a tendency to hold together so that large doses
are easily administered. Unfortunately, due to the belief that iron was
quite harmless, a carelessness in dosage frequently occurred and in quite a
few instances w'ith disastrous results.
The History in Fatal Cases. The history in most cases is very similar.
The owner had treated the litter of pigs with reduced iron when four or
five days old as a preventive against anemia. From six to twelve hours
after the treatment the pigs which had been quite bright and healthy
began to look sick. They were dull, listless, with occasional spells of
shivering, and ceased to nurse. In from twenty-four to forty-eight hours
they began to die. Sometimes the whole litter would succumb, in other
cases just a few pigs were affected.
The quantity of reduced iron administered in these fatal cases varied
greatly, but was usually between .5 gm. to 1.5 gm. Roughly from two to
five times the maximum dose advocated.
What is the Cause of Death? At first we believed that the iron itself
had been toxic, and death due to iron poisoning. This vie\y had to be
discarded, because such doses were frequently being given with no unto-
ward results. The clue came with the study of the post-mortem lesions.
In many cases examination of the carcass show^ed strong evidence of
septicemia. Most of the body lymph glands were congested and oedema-
18 THE REPORT OF No. 29
tous; acute congestion and oedema of the lungs was common, while in
others varying degrees of gastritis and enteritis were present. Cultures
made at death or shortly after showed various organisms, the chief being
colon, streptococci and pasteurella. These did not represent post-mortem
invasion.
The conclusion at which we arrived was that iron in excess has a
tendency to cause a break in the defence mechanism, allowing organisms
already present in the respiratory tract or intestine to penetrate and
cause serious infection.
The following case is cited as offering evidence which strongly sup-
ports this view :
Two litters of pigs, A and B, of approximately the same age and in
equally good condition, were given reduced iron in excess, 1.5 gms. per
pig, or five times the proper dose. In one litter (A) all of the pigs except
one remained healthy, and this one which died hp^d been transferred from
the other litter (B). In litter B, within twenty-four hours all of the pigs
— nine in number — were affected. They appeared dull, nursed with indif-
ference and lay in the straw most of the time. Within forty-eight hours
four of the nine pigs had died, the remainder recovered. Post-mortem
examination of the pigs showed very marked congestion and cedema of
the lungs with fluid in the thorax in every case. In two of the four there
were different degrees of gastritis and enteritis, but in neither was the
inflammation severe. The spleen was enlarged and dark in all ca-es.
The kidneys were pale. Cultures from the lung gave pure colon in all
cases. The colon did not represent terminal or post-mortem infection,
as the pigs were in good condition. Further, a blood culture made from
one of the sick pigs gave a pure culture of colon.
The Disease Reproduced Experimentally
In this experiment, seven six-day-old pigs were used. They appeared
to be perfectly healthy, but they were located on a farm where losses in
piglets have frequently occurred during the last few years.
Three of these pigs were given by mouth 1.5 gms. of sulphate of iron,
which is equivalent to 300 mgs. of Fe. All of these pigs died within
forty-eight hours. The post-mortem findings were very similar to those
seen in the natural cases described above. The organisms present were
P. suiseptica and coli.
Two pigs were fed reduced iron ; one received 300 mg.. the other 600
mg. Both of these pigs remained perfectly well.
One pig was given 300 mg. of iron as ferric chloride. This pig died in
twenty-four hours. Thero was rio indication of septicemia, and death was
most likely due to the toxic effect of the iron.
Conchisio7is. (1) That overdoses — more than 300 mg. of reduced
iron or 900 mg. of sulphate of iron — may cause death of piglets.
(2) That death is not due to a direct toxic effect of the iron, but rather
to an indirect effect upon the defence mechanism.

STIFF LAMB DISEASE — AN APHOSPHOROSIS ?
F. W. SCHOFIELD AND A. F. BAIN
Noting the pronounced similarity in the gross appearance of the
skeletal muscles in "stiff lamb" disease with that seen in "stiff calf"
disease, we decided to treat the disease in lambs with phosphoric acid
which had already given excellent results in the calves.
Stiff Cah-es. The cases occurred on a farm where for several years
the owner had been losing nursing calves all showing the same symptoms
of stiffness, myasthenia, paresis, emaciation and death. There was no
elevation in temperature or other signs of infection. Post-mortem showed
widely distributed degeneration of the skeletal muscles which were a pale
pinkish gray in colour.
Samples of blood from the dams showed a deficiency in the inorganic
phosphorus, an average of 3.7 mgs. The cattle did not show any signs of
mineral deficiency. With the liberal feeding of bone-meal to the cows,
and dilute phosphoric acid to the calves, there were no further losses.
Stiff Lambs. The stiff lambs occurred in a flock of about twenty ewes
which were in very poor condition when purchased in the fall. They had
been wintered on hay and mangels and had put on weight. Grain was
fed for two weeks before lambing and for a few days after. The lambs
were three weeks old and appeared well when put out to pasture. In
three or four days time several of the lambs were noticed to be quite stiff
in their movements. Within a v/eek twelve lambs were affected. The
symptoms were characteristic of stiff lamb disease.
Treatment. All of the lambs were given a dessertspoonful of dilute
phosphoric acid in a little milk twice a day for three days, and then a
teaspoonful twice a day for the remainder of the week. One of the worst
cases, a weak lamb, died after marked improvement in locomotion. Post-
mortem examination revealed pneumonia.
The remainder showed great improvement in three days, and in two
weeks all had entirely recovered.
Unfortunately there were no controls, but the recovery was so remark-
able that we report the cases hoping that it will interest others to try
the same treatment for this obscure disease.
Inorganic phosphorous determinations made on the blood of the dams
and the sick lambs gave inconclusive results. Ewes, phosphorus ranged
from 3.57 - 6.80; lambs, from 5.88 - 9.0 mg. %.
THE RAPID ISOLATION OF THE VIRUS OF EQUINE
ENCEPHALOMYELITIS

Although the diagnosis of infectious diseases does not necessarily
depend upon the isolation of the specific organism, the demonstration of
20 THE REPORT OF No. 29
the specific bacterium or virus offers the most conclusive kind of evidence.
In the disease which we are now discussing, accurate diagnosis by clinical
observation, serological or other laboratory tests is not at present possible,
the actual demonstration of the virus is therefore essential. It is true
that when the disease occurs in epizootic form diagnosis on clinical and
epizootological grounds is not difficult, but the diagnosis of isolated cases
is a very difficult matter and usually requires the demonstration of the
virus. The histo-pathological changes, while of great significance, are
hardly specific enough to warrant a diagnosis in all cases. The isolation
and designation of the virus is therefore of unique importance in the
diagnosis of encephalomyelitis. A simple, accurate and rapid method of
diagnosis is of great importance in both human and animal infection.
The methods to be described have been worked out with these fundamental
requirements constantly in view. Whether the methods described will
prove to be equally applicable to the disease as it affects man mu-^t be
determined in the future.
Isolation by Blood Culture Into the Guinea Pig
AND Chick Embryo
The advantage of this method is obvious in that it enables a diagnosis
to be made while the disease is in the earliest stage. One does not have to
await the death of the animal as in other methods. Moreover, should the
animal recover, one is not cheated of the information desired.
Blood is drawn directly from the jugular vein into a sterile 50 cc.
vacuum bottle containing 5cc. of 5% sodium chloride. Fifty cc. is the
quantity usually drawn. It is very important that the sample be taken
during the first few days of the disease, i.e., during ths febrile period. At
this time the virus may be demonstrated in quantities as small as .01 cc.
The virus will remain viable in the citrate solution at summer tempera-
tures for at least four days. A small quantity of the blood — .1 cc. — is
inoculated aseptically into each of several eggs which contain eight to ten-
day chick embryos. A similar quantity is inoculated intra-cerebrally into
several guinea pigs, while 10 cc. of the bV-od is inoculated intra-peritone-
ally into the same animals. The eggs are candled at 24 and 48 hours to
see whether the embryo is alive or dead. If dead the embryo is removed
and examined for the typical hemorrhage le-^ions on the skin, cultured
aerobically and anaserobically, then frozen at about -5"^ C. Emul^^ions are
made from the chick or membranes up to 10 •'', filtered, and guinea pigs
inoculated which have been immunized against the Eastern and Western
strains respectively. Or specific immune sera — Eastern and Western —
is added to the emulsion dilutions and guinea pig protection tests carried
out.
The guinea pigs which have been inoculated are kept under observa-
tion and the temperature taken night and morning. Pigs coming down with
infection usually shoAv a rise in temperature — 103° - 106° F. — com-
mencing on the second or third day. Anorexia, depression and paresis
usually accompany the fever. The majority of the guinea pigs inoculated
die in a state of paralysis in from four to ten days. The pigs should be
kept under observation for at least three weeks, as when a very small
quantity of the virus is present symptoms and death may be greatly
delayed. This, however, chiefly in animals which are inoculated intra-
peritoneally.

It is important to note that the blood culture technique has only been
employed in the isolation of the Eastern type of virus. It remains to be
seen whether it can be used successfully in isolating virus of other types.
MALIGNANT EQUINE INFLUENZA
F. W. SCHOFIELD
An unusual outbreak of what was diagnosed as influenza occurred in
a large stable of work horses. No new additions had been made, and none
of the animals had been off the estate, so that the source of infection
remained unknown. The clinical picture was not that of influenza, but
that of a severe septicemia, especially so in the first two cases.
Case 1. Nine-year-old gelding in good condition. Had worked all day
and seemed perfectly well. Evening meal refused. Temperature 100%°,
pulse 56, breathing slightly accelerated. Appeared sleepy and depressed,
and was undoubtedly a sick horse. The eye was slightly congested and
jaundiced. There was no discharge from the nostrils. On the following
day the depression was more marked, and there was an anxious expression
on the face. The temperature remained the same. Laxatives and stimu-
lants were given. On the third day the horse lay down, and was unable
to rise. Temperature 100°, pulse weak and fast, respiration accelerated.
The horse died during the night after struggling violently for some hours.
Post-mortem showed some congestion of the lungs, the trachea and
bronchii were covered with ecchymoses and petechial hemorrhages. The
abdominal viscera were normal.
Malignant influenza. Section of trachea showing hemorrhages.
22 THE REPORT OF No. 29
Case 2. A fourteen-year-old gelding in good condition. Had worked
all day and was only noticed to be sick in refusing the evening meal.
Examination showed temperature 102°, pulse 60, and respiration slightly
increased. The head was down and the animal appeared to be quite sick.
On the following day the patient was definitely worse ; there was constant
spasm of the diaphragm, slight muscular tremors, especially of the
pectoral muscles, and marked depression. Inco-ordination of movement
war^ pronounced and the animal rapidly became delirious, unmanageable,
and went down. After a few hours of violent struggling the horse died,
just tv/enty-eight hours after the onset of the disease.
Post-mortem examination showed the same ecchymoses and petechial
hemorrhages of the trachea and bronchii. Petechial hemorrhages were
also present in the adipose tissue and fascia in the sub-scapular region,
the flank and the thigh. Some of the hemorrhage was due to bruising, but
much was deep-seated.
Case 3. Roan gelding weighing about 1,850 pounds, in good condition,
and had worked all day, but noticed not to eat the evening meal. Exami-
nation showed temperature 106° F., pulse 60, respiration slightly increased.
There was marked depression, the patient frequently moved from foot to
foot. On the following day the temperature was i06"",';°, the legs were
slightly swollen, and when walked the animal seemed stiff. The eye was
definitely congested, and the depression was more pronounced. At this
time, 3 p.m., anti-influenza serum, 200 cc, was given intravenously.
Observed at 11 p.m., the temperature was down to 103°, the patient was
eating a little hay and appeared bright. A further inoculation of 100 cc,
was given on the following day. The horse made a rapid and complete
recovery.
Case Jf. Brown mare, in good condition, had worked all day, but was
noticed not to eat the evening meal. Examination showed temperature
106,2°, pulse 60, and marked depression. The legs were slightly stocked.
Muscular tremors were frequent. On the following day the condition was
the same with the addition of a slight watery discharge from the eyes and
nose. Anti-influenza serum, 200 cc, was given intravenously. In sixteen
hours the temperature had dropped to 102.4°, pulse 46, and the patient
was bright and eating mash and a little grass. Within a few days recovery
was complete.
At this time every horse in the stable was examined, the temperature
taken, and 5 cc. of anti-influenza bacterin given. No further cases
developed.
Bacteriological Findings. Cultures made from the trachea gave
P. equisepfica and S. equirihis, with a few colonies of a hemohi:ic strepto-
coccus. A guinea pig injected into the thorax with a scraping from the
trachea died in thirty-six hours with acute sero-fibrinous pleurisy.
P. equiseptica was present in pure culture,
A seven-year-old gelding was inoculated intravenously with 20 cc. of
blood taken from the third case. Five davs later this horse developed a
temperature of 103°. The temperature varied from 103° to 105° for the
following three days, and then subsided. No other symptoms were noticed
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939 23
except a slight watery discharge from the nose which continued for a
few days.
Blood Examinatio7i. A white cell count in two cases showed no
appreciable variation from the normal.
The severity of the infection, the absence of the usual symptoms of
equine influenza and the remarkable response to the serum made these
cases of peculiar interest. Several similar outbreaks have been reported
during the last few months.
DISTEMPER IN MINK
Lionel Stevenson and F. W. Schofield
During the spring and summer months a number of serious outbreaks
of distemper occurred on the mink ranches in this province. For some
time doubt was expressed as to whether the epizootic was true distemper.
This important point was definitely settled by the use of ferrets as experi-
mental animals. The ferret is highly susceptible to distemper and mani-
fests typical symptoms when infected. Ranchers had been advised to use
anti-canine distemper serum as a preventive and large quantities were
used on several ranches. On the whole the results were very disappointing,
little or no benefit being derived from its use. The use of autogenous
tissue vaccine gave very much better results as a preventive.
Distemper' in the Mink. This disease occurred in two main forms,
e.cj., the nervous and the systemic.
The nervous. This form was characterized by convulsions in which
the animal would cry loudly for several minutes at a time. Often this was
the only symptom noticed. In other cases, however, there was a slight
watery discharge from the eyes, and the mink had been off feed and
somewhat listless for a few days.
The systemic. In this form the first evidence of sickness is in the
indifi:'erence of the mink to food. It frequently remains hidden in the nest,
and shows no interest in its environment. A slight watery discharge from
the eyes and nose appears. Soon the eyelids show yellow crusts along the
borders, and the lids may be stuck together. There is a catarrhal con-
junctivitis. At the same time a slight nasal discharge appears and the
"lips and cheeks are highly congested. The skin of the abdomen is frequently
hypersemic, also that of the foot pads, which seemed to be very painful.
The temperature is between 104 -106^ F. The disease usually lasted from
five to ten days, the animal becoming progressively weaker and emaciated.
Recovery is rare, the mortality being almost 100%.
Post-Mortem. The changes v;ere as a rule not marked. The lung-;
were congested, but pneumonia was rare; the spleen was usually several
times the normal size, dark and friable. Congestion and enlargement of
the liver is common. In some cases there was a marked gastro-enteritis.
Apart from the enlarged spleen pathological changes were not marked.
A verv acute dermatitis of the foot pads and adjacent skin was frequent.
24 THE REPORT OF No. 29
The disease in the ferret is almost identical with that seen in the
mink. The incubation period is from five to ten days, when a rise in
temperature occurs.
The Prophijlactic Value of the Anti-Canine Distemper Serum. Young
ferrets were used in this experiment, as mink could not be procured. As
already mentioned, most ranchers had not found the ^erum to have any
value as a preventive, although large doses were used (5 cc.) and repeated
ten days later. Four ferrets were given 2.5 cc. each of the serum and later
the eyes and nose were swabbed with infected exudates taken from acute
cases. In ten days the serum was repeated. All of the ferrets came down
with typical distemper and died within a month. This experiment was
repeated, using two injections ten days apart of 5.0 cc. of anti-canine
distemper serum. The results were practically the same in that all the
ferrets became infected and died.
Tissue Vaccine as a Prophylactic. The vaccine was prepared by
triturating the lung and spleen with sand until a very fine paste was pro-
duced. This was now diluted in saline solution, one part to ten of saline.
The virus was killed by the addition of .4 // of formalin. The vaccine was
used in quantities of 1.0 cc, followed by a second dose of 2.0 cc. in ten
days.
On one ranch eleven hundred mink were inoculated, and two hundred
kept as controls. In the vaccinated group the death rate began to drop
in two weeks. In four weeks the death rate was down 50^. At the end
of six weeks there were no more deaths. In the control group of two
hundred mink the death rate continued without any change.
The rancher had used large quantities of the serum with no success.
Quoting from his report, he says: "One cannot draw definite conclusions
about the effectiveness of tissue vaccine but from our experience I think
it is worth while — I would certainly try it again."
CLINICAL CASE REPORTS
R. A. MclNTOSH
LEUKEMIA IN A COW
Leukemia is defined as being a fatal disease in which there is a marked
increase in the number of leucocytes in the blood, together with an
enlargement and proliferation of the lymphoid tissue of the spleen, lym-
phatic glands and bone marrow. In clinical cases, every lymph node in
the body is enlarged. The disease is attended with progressive anemia
and increasing exhaustion.
In animals, the disease is sometimes spoken of as pseudoleukemia.
Lymphoblastoma and 1\ mphocytoma are other terms applied to it. It is a
condition in which there is a definite neoplastic disturbance of the blood-
forming- tissues, thus the tumefaction of the lymph glands. It has been
determined also that in some instances there is no increase in the number
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939
25
of leucocytes and the condition is then referred to as an aleukemic
lymphocytoma.
Leukemia Case — Showing the Tumified lymph glands.
The illustration included in this report pictures a case of this nature
in a Holstein cow six years of age. The owner first noticed a swelling at
the base of the right rear quarter of her udder and shortly afterwards
in the loose fold of the skin on the right flank. Veterinary assistance was
acquired and an exploratory puncture of the flank was made to determine,
if possible, the character of the contents of the lesion. No exudate was
found. An incision was made in the enlargement, but again without
finding any pus cavity or fluid content. This healed, but the tumefaction
of the gland continued. Two months later, the writer had tho opportunity
to examine the case and all of the superficial body lymph glands showed
this tumefaction as is revealed in the picture. The animal was progres-
sively becoming more emaciated and because of pressure in the laryngeal
region, due to the enlargement of the retro-pharyngeal lymph gland,
laboured breathing and coughing were quite marked. Samples of her
blood were taken for a white blood cell count and found not to be above
normal. The cow was disposed of as a canner and, unfortunately, the
opportunity of following the case through was not accomplished.
NECROTIC STOMATITIS IN CALVES
This is a condition apparently becoming somewhat prevalent. On a
number of occasions cases of this nature have been submitted to the
clinic for examination and diagnosis. In some instances, the ov.-ners stated
that veterinary examination and advice had been acquired without a
diagnosis having been given.
26
THE REPORT OF
No. 29
The disease is caused by the Actinomyces Necrophorus, a soil-borne
organism which finds a suitable habitat in damp, decaying vegetable
matter. It also causes what is commonly spoken of as a sore mouth in
young pigs, lip and leg ulceration in sheep and foul-in-the-foot of cattle.
Numbers of calves kept in the .same pen in which manure and filth
accumulates are more often affected. When the organism becomes preva-
lent in the pen, the calves, undoubtedly, pick it up from the contaminated
bedding and possibly from troughs, mangers, and pails from which they
are fed. The eruption of teeth and abrasions they cause on the gums and
the inside of the cheek provide an avenue for the infection to get into the
tissues, after which characteristic lesions appear. Quite often lumps
appear on the sides of the face and thsir prasence is often the first indi-
cation the attendant observes in these cases. The circumscribed enlarge-
ment is due to the tumefaction of the facial tissues around the necrosing
centre of infection. Affected calves string mucous and saliva from their
mouths and often it has the highly offensive odor of decaying flesh. Such
salves may drink their milk, but may refrain from eating. They become
gaunt in appearance, unthrifty, and scouring is quite frequently observed.
If the condition is neglected similar areas of necrosis may occur in the
region of the pharynx and larynx, resulting in difficulty in swallowing and
breathing and also coughing. Infected material may be swallowed, cause
a degree of enteritis and in some instances passes through the wall of
the intestine into the blood stream to later lodge in the liver. If such
lesions develop, it invariably causes the death of the affected animal.
The following report and illustration indicate one of the more severe
cases in which the liver became involved. The owner brought in the
carcass of a calf v.'hich had died en route to the college. An inquiry into the
history of the condition revealed that six calves had been lost which were
Cut Section oi the Liver sliowins W'liitc N'ecrotic areas in tlie Pareiichvma ot the ^laiui;
THE VETERINARY COLLEGE FOR 1939 27
similarly affected. The calves were kept in a common pen and pail fed.
Practically all of them had shown swollen faces and then gradually became
worse and died. In the post-mortem examination of this one there was a
necrotic lesion in both cheeks and on opening the carcass lesions were
observed in both of the lungs and the liver. The liver was extensively
involved as is seen in the accompanying illustration. There was also some
indication of a gastroenteritis. It should be observed that once the liver
becomes involved, the temperature of the affected animal becomes quite
high and they become quite seriously affected. This is due in part, at least,
to toxemia for there is no possibility of the toxic material being eliminated
as for instance when the lesions are confined to the mouth.
To control the condition, it is advisable to isolate the affected animals,
thoroughly clean out and disinfect the pen in v;hich they were kept and
not allow them to have any roughage until pretty well recovered. Whole
milk, flaxseed tea and calf meal will suffice for the diet during the interim
of recovery. The treatment of the diseased areas in the calves' mouths
requires the curretting of the lesions and the application of Lugol's solu-
tion of iodine. In some instances, it may be necessary to make an external
opening in the facial lesions in order to successfully remove the necrotic
tissue and provide ample drainage.
PREGNANCY DISEASE IN A EWE
The subject of this clinic was a pure-bred Southdown ewe aged four
years. She was a member of a flock of twelve. During the winter they
had been fed mixed hay (clover and timothy), turnips, and towards
lambing time a little oat grain. They were housed in a pen connected with
a yard in which they could exercise at will.
This animal was first noticed sick four days prior to submitting her
to the clinic. She was dull and stupid, shook her head and ears and ground
her teeth. She drank a little, but would not eat at all. These symptoms
became more pronounced and when examined she was very stupid, acted
as if she were blind and would not move when approached. A sample of
urine was obtained and a test applied for ketone bodies. The reaction was
markedly positive.
A diagnosis of Pregnancy Disease was made and she was immediately
given 300 cc. of a 40 '^ dextrose solution intravenously. Cascara and
molasses were given also by the mouth. The next day some improvement
was evident, and she was given 250 cc. of the dextrose solution. On the
third day, she was quite improved. She ate hay and grain, drank freely
and was' quite active. Her senses had returned to such an extent that she
was quite timid and would try to avoid anyone on their approach. On the
fourth day, she continued to be quite bright, but showed some uneasiness.
A few hours later, labor pains were in evidence and two still-born feti
were removed. Unfortunately, the second fetus was difficult to remove
because of malpresentation. Subsequently the ewe succumbed, evidently
due to a metritis.
The reason for including this case report is to reveal the cure of the
acetonemic condition by the use of the dextrose solution. Had it not been
for the obstetric difficulty, it is felt that the patient would have recovered.

HIGHWAYS OF ONTARIO
By R. M. Smith, Deputy Minister
This report covers the twelve months ending March 31st, 1940.
During that period the Revenue of the Department reached a record high
of approximately §34,000,000.00, an increase of more than 87,400,000.00 over
the immediate preceding twelve months. Of this increase something over
$6,()00,000.00 was from Gasoline Revenue, reflecting the first year's increase
of two cents per gallon in the ta.x, but accounted for in part also by an increase
in gallonage sold. Motor \>hicles Revenue accounted for an additional 8780,-
000.00 of the increase.
Expenditure of the Department for the period of this Report came much
closer to the total Revenue figure than for several years.

An examination of the following pages will show that an ever higher standard
of both construction and maintenance methods is being applied to the King's
Highways of Ontario, adding to their beauty and to the safety and comfort of
everyone using them. Better equipment and the application of more scientific
methods each year reduce the discomforts of mud and dust in summer and the
hazards of ice and snow in winter.
Both Northern and Southern Ontario received attention in the Construction
program of this period. The highways of the North are being quickly extended
and rebuilt to Southern standards, providing improved transportation facilities
for miners, farmers and lumbermen, and luring the tourist farther and farther
into this Province of beauty and romance.
Progress was made on the new development between Nipigon and Geraldton
and a start was made east of Geraldton on the gap between that point and
Hearst, which, when completed, will provide an all-Canada route east and west
across Ontario.
vSubsidies of over So, 200, 000. 00 were paid to counties and townships to assist
in their roads programs, and in this connection an expression of appreciation
is due to their engineers as well as to those of the several suburban commissions
for the results obtained by their efforts. Close co-operation between municipal
officials and the Department has helped in unifying methods and in obtaining
a maxinnnn of economv.
Registration of motor vehicles showed an increase over the all-time high of
the previous year of 2.3% and totalled 724,477.
With a continuous increase in tlie Nolunie of trallic, refiected in more registra-
tions and more gasoline sold, a corresponding increase in highway accidents has
been prevented by improvements to and a more rigid enforcement of the High-
way Tratlic Act.
[10]
HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT IN ONTARIO FOR 1930 1_1
The year 193*1 will hni^ rtiiiain a iiieinorable one:
Their Majesties, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, visited Ontario early
in the sunnner, st<»{)ping at most of the larger centres as well as points in the
more sparsely settled North.
Her Majesty, niatii Elizabeth, dedicated the new divided highway, which,
when completed, will connect Toronto and Fort ICrie. This highway proudly
bears her name, "The Queen Elizabeth Way. "
Late in the same sunnner, Canada quickly followed the Mother Country in
the declaration of war against Nazi (Germany, and almost innnediately Ontario's
men in hundreds and then in thousands joined the varicjus branches of Canada's
armed forces. The Department of Highways has shared in this, through the loss
of many valuable men to the Army, the Navy and the Air Force, with every
prospect of seeing still more leave safety and security to help preserve our
priceless heritage of freedom.

12 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY Xo. 32
REPORT OF GASOLINE TAX REVENUE
By S. O. Cuthbertson, Chief Inspector, Gasoline Handling Act
To R. M. Smith, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Highways.
The gross gasoline tax collections for the Province during the fiscal year,
April 1st, 1939, to March 31st, 1940 (both dates inclusive) amounted to 827,428,-
149.51. During the same period, there was refunded to farmers, manufacturers,
motor boat users, airplane users, etc., the amount of $2,322,790.39. After having
refunded the latter amount, the net gasoline tax for the period mentioned above
amounted to $25,105,359.12, being an increase in excess of $6,500,000.00 over
the same period in the previous year. The increase is accounted for, in some
part, to the increased gasoline tax which became effective midnight, March 31st,
1939. The tax was increased from 6c per Imperial gallon to 8c per Imperial
gallon. There was, however, an increase in the gasoline gallonage sold during the
period to which this report refers.
During this same period, there was received $5,279.03, being revenue derived
from gasoline handling license fees, and $700.00, being revenue from fines imposed
for infractions of the Gasoline Handling Act.
During the period covered by this report, increased efforts have been made
to eliminate fraudulent gasoline tax claims. Dealers who have not complied
with the Regulations under the Gasoline Handling Act have had their gasoline
handling licenses either suspended or cancelled; and, in cases where it has been
definitely established that fraudulent claims have been filed with the Department
in order to defraud the Government, court actions have been instituted in order
to protect the revenue of the Department. Investigations are continuing which
reveal, from time to time, fraudulent claims, and cases are submitted to the
courts to be dealt with.
Audits of collectors' records are conducted periodically to verify the monthly
gasoline tax returns.

ANNUAL REPORT FOR 1939
KING'S HIGHWAY OPERATIONS
A. A. Smith, Chief Engineer
As in previous years the operations on the King's Highway system were
carried out with the object of providing safe, all-weather roads for the motoring
public. In all new construction work undertaken, safety has been the first con-
sideration in the design and location. Two major changes were made in the
Standards of the divided highways now being built on the more heavily travelled
routes. The first was the adoption of a pavement width of 23 feet, composed of
a driving lane of 11 feet and a passing lane of 12 feet. The second was the provi-
sion for twin structures at all bridges, giving complete separation of opposing
traffic lanes.
Considerable attention was given to the erection of traffic control devices.
In addition to the conventional traffic signals previously put into service, amber
flashing lights were installed at several points. Resurfacing was carried out on
some of the older pavements and driving conditions were improved by additional
zone markings, guide rail and reflectorized signs. Summer maintenance included
the application of dust layer on all main gravel roads.

Dedication Ceremonies at Queen Elizabeth Way Si. CaihariuL.-,, 7tli June, 1939
The usual winter maintenance programme was carried on. All King's High-
ways in Southern Ontario and the leading highways in Northern Ontario were
kept open during the winter months. For ice control on new concrete pavements,
the Department undertook the use of heated sand in place of chemically treated
sand. Two hot sand plants were built, one east and one west of Toronto, and
satisfactory results obtained.
Following the outbreak of war in September 1939, many members of the
Department staff were granted leave of absence to enlist for active service or to
join the staff of the Departinent of National Defence. The Surveys Branch assisted
in the laying out of the airports being constructed under the Empire Air Training
Plan. The methods of aerial mapping used in highway location were very valuable
in this work.
Summary of Construction Projects
During the visit of Their Majesties to Canada this year, the Queen graciously
consented to open the Toronto to Fort Erie divided highway and granted permis-
sion to call the road The Queen Elizabeth Way. The opening ceremonies were
carried out by Her Majesty the Queen on June 7th, 1939, at the junction of
Niagara Street and the Queen Elizabeth Way at St. Catharines.
Work on this highway was actively continued. The Henley Bridge near St.
Catharines and other bridges at Jordan, Fifteen Mile and Sixteen Mile Creeks
were completed. Grade separations were built at Lake and Niagara Streets in
St. Catharines, at the Martindale Road and at the Cushman Road where High-
way 8 intersects the Queen Elizabeth Way. Paving was complete on the Stoney
Creek Traffic Circle and approaches forming the intersection with Highway 20.
Grading and structures were in the course of construction from Thorold Stone
Road to Lundvs Lane and on the approach to the Rainbow Bridge at Niagara
Falls.

On the western entrance to Toronto on the Queen Elizabeth Way, twin
bridges were under construction at the Canadian Pacific Railway, Salisbury
Avenue and the Canadian National Railway. Concrete overpasses were being
constructed to accommodate Grand Avenue and Kipling Avenue over the new
highway. A reinforced concrete retaining wall and overpass bridge were under
construction at the junction of the Queen Elizabeth Way and Highway 2.
At the eastern entrance to Toronto, pavement was completed on the divided
highways from the grade separation at the Scarboro Cenotaph to Birchmount
Avenue on Highway 2 and to Eastwood Avenue on Highway 5. Lighting installa-
ticni was carried out in this area. A new bridge was completed over Highland
Creek on the continuation of the divided highway from Toronto to Oshawa. A
grade separation was completed east of the Rouge River on this same highway.
The paving of Highway 90 from Barrie to Camp Borden was started and the
base course completed before winter set in.
In Northern Ontario further sections of Highways 11 and 17 wore brought
tij) to Class "A" standard. On Highway 1 1, considerable work of regrading was
done between North Bay and Temagami and between Englehart and Kenogami
Lake. The new road from Matheson to Pamour was put in condition for winter
travel. Twenty-six miles of hot-mix pavement w.^re laid during the season between
North Bay and Englehart.
On Highway 17 between Chalk River and Sault Ste. Mari.>, several short
sections were r^graded to Class "A" standard. Ten miles of hot-mix pavement
and twenty miLs of concrete pavement were laid. Several bridges and one
()\crhead were constructed. West of the head of Lak^' vSup.Tior, mm miles of
nuilch were laid and two bridges built.
On other northern highways a fairly extensive programme was carried out in
regrading to higher standards, resurfacing and l)inlding bridge's. The highway

SURVEYS' BRANCH
Land Surveys
Land Surveys were made aflfecting 1,702 owners. This meant the surveying
and monumenting of 460 miles of widened highway, the planting of 4,550 monu-
ments and the acquisition of 4,282 acres of land; 41 gravel pits, 11 park sites
were surveyed and 9G miles of road allowance was staked.
To enforce regulations controlling development of abutting property 48
building and fence surveys were made. Three surveys were made for the Depart-
ment of PubHc Works and one for the Department of Mines.
Location and Engineering Surveys.
The Location branch made 180 miles of road traverse and 150 miles of road
diversion or new location. This included profiles, cross-sections, contours and
soundings.
Airports
Between November 8th, 1939, and March 3 1st, 1940, the Surveys' Branch
surveyed for the Department of Transport, Ottawa, 32 airport sites. This work
was done in connection with the Commonwealth Air Training Plan.
The site itself was usually about 1,000 acres in extent and plans were prepared
showing all buildings, structures, pole Hues, etc., including all tt)pography and
contours at 2-foot intervals. The drainage was investigated and soil tests taken.
These 32 ports necessitated surveying an area of 34,800 acres. In addition a
zoning plan was prepared for each port. This plan covered about 9 square miles
surrounding the aerodrome site. All topography was taken and 5-foot contours
were shown. The height of all obstacles in this area such as trees, buildings, pole
lines, etc., was obtained. The total area included by the zone plans was 437
square miles.

Increasing control over developnicnt along divided highways makes it neces-
sary to have an up-to-date plan as constructed of those highways which have
been designated as divided highways. The Location branch has been making
traverses and preparing plans at a scale of 50 = I inch which enable application
under the regulations to be dealt with, without an inspection on the ground except
in special cases.
The Location Branch is making increasing use of aerial photography for
preparing study plans of new locations. A machine called an Epidiascope was
constructed by means of which large areas can be mapped from the photographs
with very little field work. This permits of a more comprehensive study of the
route and the alternatives. Aerial pictures have been used for road locations in
Northern Ontario for some time now but it is only in the last year that a method
was devised which enable them to be of equal value in the south.

REPORT ON BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION UNDERTAKEN BY THE
HIGHWAYS DEPARTMENT AND COMPLETED DURING THE
YEAR 1939
Arthur Sedgwick, Chief Bridge Engineer
During the year a total of 9,542 lineal feet of bridges was completed by the
Department, among which were a number of important structures, which are
briefly noted below on account of their size or advanced design.
C. P. R. Overhead on Queen Elizabeth Way
This is a grade separation project consisting of a series of reinforced concrete
slab spans on concrete bents with a total length of 300 feet. The balance of the
structure is made up with earth fill approaches.
Echo Bay Bridge
This is a steel beam bridge consisting of a Oo-foot navigable centre span and
two 43-foot side spans forming anchors and cantilevers to support a 4()-foot
suspended portion in the (io-foot centre span. The spans rest on creosoted timber
pile piers and bents. An additional 20-foot span was placed at each end. No
abutments are used. The location is on Highway No. 17, east of vSault Ste. Marie.
Chippawa Creek Bridge
This bridge is on Highway No. 17 north of Sault Ste. Marie and consists of
a 100-foot span concrete arch with earth-filled spandrels.
Fifteen and Sixteen Mile Creek Bridges
These are on the Oueen Elizabeth Way in Louth Township. These bridges are
located in earth fills over peat-filled lagoons at the mouths of both creeks. The
earth fill was dynamited to the bottom of the muck. The bridges were designed
as three spanned continuous steel rigid frame girders with steel columns resting
on piled foundations. Owing to the earth fill not fully replacing the muck bottom
there developed a movement of the same and it became necessary to extend the
bridges at each end so as to keep the earth end slopes as flat as possible. This
was done by driving steel pile bents and extending the bridge with 20-foot steel
girder spans.
Frederickhouse River Bridge
The controlled water level of this river widens the waterway to a width of
some 900 feet. A 250-foot truss span was constructed to provide facilities for
towing pulp log booms down the river. The bed of the river is clay of varying
degrees of softness overlying bed rock some 60 feet below water level. The water
itself was about 10 feet deep. The great expense of building the pier foundations
for this long span by the usual method of cofFerdamming and unwatering opera-
tions was avoided by using 12-inch steel H-columns for steel piles which were
driven to bed rock and were long enough to project above the water level. The
piles were then surrounded by reinforced concrete placed under water from the
river bottom upwards. The reinforced concrete piers were then continued upwards
and joined near the top to form a concrete bent instead of a solid concrete pier.
48 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY Xo. 32
Highland Creek Bridge
The existing bridge on Highway No. 2 is 30 feet wide. This was not wide
enough to accommodate the new four-lane dual highway now constructed to
this point. Accordingly an additional structure 36 feet wide was built beside
the existing structure to allow the dual highway to be continued eastward with-
out contraction for deviation of the same. A novel feature of the construction is
the principal of composite construction between the concrete floor slab and the
steel top chord. The floor slab is therefore utilized to relieve the steel top chord
of part of the live load stresses. The floor stringers w-ere also made continuous
over the tops of the floor beams and were spaced 10 feet apart.
Henley Course Bridge
This structure is on the Queen Elizabeth Way and spans the old Welland
River near St. Catharines. It consists of a series of reinforced concrete arches
up to 150 feet in length. Above the roadway the structure has been embellished
with symbolic stone work at each end.
Port Stanley Bridge (King George VI)
This structure is a bascule lift span over Kettle Creek at the southern end of
Highwav Xo. 4. It consists of two 85-foot leaves w^hich provide for a boat
channel with a clear width of 150 feet. The lifting mechanism is electrically
operated. There is a 30-foot roadway with two 6-foot sidewalks. A unique feature
is the open grid steel floor for both roadway and sidewalks. This steel gridwork
provides a strong but lighter floor and at the same time prevents snow and ice
accumulation and lessens wind resistance when the bridge is being opened. This
is the first installation of this type of floor in Canada.
Mimico Creek Bridge
This is a triple span rigid frame concrete girder and slab structure on Queen
Elizabeth Way consisting of a central span of 80 feet with 40-foot flanking spans.
The girders are supported on concrete legs which rise from solid piers reaching
up to high water mark.
Muskrat River Bridge
This structure is on Highway No. 17 in the town of Pembroke. It is a rein-
forced concrete extension to three concrete arches which were built in the vear
1887.
Wanapitei River Bridge
This structure is on Highway No. 17. It consists of a series of steel beam
spans supported on steel and concrete bents. The water is controlled at this
point at a level about 20 feet deep. The river bed consists of up to 60 feet of
mud above bed rock. Hollow steel column piers were formed of 12 pieces of
sheet piling driven to rock. The interior of the pier above the top of the mud
was then filled with concrete. The steel piles thus provided the supporting power
above the rock while the concrete served to stiffen the piling and to unite the
12 pieces of piling into a monolithic unit.
Several twin concrete rigid frame structures were built over Queen Elizabeth
Way to provide grade separations.
Plans were prepared and work supervised for various permanent structures
required by northern organized township councils, which have jurisdiction over
all structures within the township but for which the Department provides the
major share of the cost.
Plans were also examined and approved for all structures inidertaken by
counties and townships in Old Ontario.
A complete list of all structures completed by the Department during the
year is shown in Appendix Xo. 4.

1939
REPORT UPON THE WORK OF THE MUNICIPAL BRANCH FOR
THE YEAR 1939
J. A. P. Marshall, Chief Engineer of Municipal Roads
The notable feature of this season's work has been the general adoption of
methods which up to the present time were more or less in the experimental
stage. In many counties and townships the laying of a system of all-weather
road surfaces has been started with the definite programme of placing a dustless
surface on all main roads in a set period of years. Using the type of low-cost
construction best adapted to local needs and materials available, the municipali-
ties have followed the practice recommended by the Minister of Highways early
in the year. More than 150 miles of this type of surfacing has been laid, notably
in the counties of Kent, Norfolk, Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry, Oxford,
Huron, Lambton and Leeds and Grenville.
Having a long term programme of construction has emphasized the necessity
of preparing the base on which the low-cost pavements may be laid. Shaping
and consolidation of the sub-grade has been more widely recognized as a vital
part of the work and during the past year many miles of grade have been pre-
pared for next season's paving.
Maintenance work during 1939 has shown a similar tendency to put experi-
mental methods into general use. In co-operation with the Ontario Department
of Agriculture, a determined effort is being made to wipe out the noxious weeds
from the roads of the province. Weed control by chemical means has become an
important part of the municipalities' road programme. The past year has seen a
great increase in the mileage of road kept open for winter traffic. Improved
snow fighting equipment and the increased use of snow fence has made this
possible. It is now generally recognized that for snowplows to work efficiently,
the road grade must be as wide and straight as economically possible. Thus
construction methods have been adapted to a new maintenance need.
County Roads
Since the passing of The Highway Improvement Act in 1901 and to the end
of 1939 a total of §144,291,907.44 has been expended on construction and mainte-
nance of county roads, of which the Province has contributed $68,385,148.24.
This includes the county expenditure during 1939, on which the provincial
subsidy was paid in 1940.
At the end of 1939 the Province was paying subsidies to the counties on
8,325 miles of county roads — approximately 15 per cent, of the total road
mileage in the area covered by the County Road System.
Expenditure on county roads in 1939 was as follows:

same were purchased; also 1 roller and 3 other snow ploughs for trucks. The
roads were well maintained with power maintainers and trucks with blades.
Sixty-five miles of road were treated with calcium chloride. Forty-one thousand
cubic yards of crushed gravel were used, and 22 miles of snow fence erected.
Perth — Grading was completed on 5J^ miles of road, 2S pipe culverts were
installed, 5 concrete culverts built and 2 bridges over 10-foot span.
Bituminous double surface treatment was put on 20 miles of road and one-half
mile of tar retread built. One tandem Diesel power maintainer was purchased
for use on construction and maintenance, also 1 four-wheel-driven truck.
Roads were maintained with the use of power maintainers and 142 miles of
road resurfaced with gravel. One hundred and fifty-three miles of road kept
clear of snow. This is the first year Perth County has undertaken snow removal.
Thirty miles of snow fence were erected.
Waterloo — Grading to proper grade and cross-section was done on 9.5 miles
of road; 128 pipes installed, 3 concrete culverts built, and 1 extension of a bridge;
3.25 miles of road were double surface treated, and 13.25 miles of road were
stabilized with clay, gravel and calcium chloride; 8.2 miles of road were surface
treated and 3 miles treated with oil. Sixty-four miles were treated \vith calcium
chloride. The whole county road system was excellently maintained with power
maintainers, and trucks with blades; 33.146 cubic yards of gravel were used.
Wellington — Grading to proper grade and cross-section. Gravelling was
completed on 22 miles of road and 8 miles were widened. Three hundred and
sixtv pipe culverts and 280 entrance culverts were installed and 1 concrete
culvert was built.
Five and three-quarter miles of bituminous low-cost surface was put down
on well prepared base, using asphalt and tar. One four-wheel-driven truck with
snow plough and blade was purchased.
Twelve miles of road were surface treated with bituminous material and 240
miles of road treated with calcium chloride. The surfaces were excellently main-
tained with the use of power maintainers and truck. Two hundred miles of road
were kept clear of snow, and 340 miles of road protected with snow fence where
required. Fifty-eight thousand yards of gravel were used.
District No. 4 — Brant, Haldimand, Lincoln, Welland and Wentworth.
Brant — The County of Brant graded and gravelled approximately 8.2 miles
of road. They also placed a gravel mulch surface on approximately 9.1 miles.
The county road system was maintained to a high standard and all roads were
kept clear of snow for the winter months.
Haldimand — The County of Haldimand graded and gravelled approxi-
mately 2.5 miles of road, constructed 1 concrete culvert and 4 concrete bridges.
The largest bridge was a three-span, 17 ft.-40 ft. -17 ft. The end spans were
designed as a cantilever. vSeven and three-quarter miles of stabilized road was
54 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY Xo. 32
laid and 03 miles of black top roads were surface treated; 0.6 miles of plant mix
was laid on the Indian Line and 2.9 miles of road were surface treated for the
first time. The county roads were all maintained to a high standard and were
kept open for the winter months.
Lincoln — The county graded approximately 9^/'2 miles of road and con-
structed 1?4 miles of waterbound macadam. Thirty-five miles of black top roads
were resurface treated. A number of metal pipes were replaced with vitrified
tile and they were embedded and covered in approximately 6 inches of concrete.
The county roads were maintained to a high standard and all the roads were
open for winter trafhc.
Welland- — The county graded about 4.4 miles of road and surfaced 2.5 miles
with stone. They surfaced 1.8 miles of surface treated macadam with a black
base top. They constructed 1 bridge and 1 culvert; ll^ miles of surface treated
roads were widened to 20 feet by adding to either edge with a penetration. The
county maintained their roads to a high standard and all roads were kept open
for the winter months.
Wentworth — The county constructed 1 mile of stone roads and built i^
mile of penetration surface. They also constructed 4^ 2 miles of retread. Twenty
miles of black top road was resurface treated. The county maintained the road
system to a high standard and kept all roads open for winter traffic.
District No. 5 — Counties of Bruce, Dufferin and Grey.
Bruce — Construction: The major items of construction carried out in Bruce
during 1939 consisted of the building of 3 reinforced concrete bridges on the
Elora road south of Burgoyne. The two larges ones were about 120 feet over all
and were a combination of rigid frame and cantilever design. These two were
identical. The smaller one w^as a 40-foot span rigid frame design. Approximately
5 miles of additional retread was put down on this road, completing this type
of surface from Walkerton to Dunblane. If their average program of construc-
tion is maintained in 1940 it is quite probable that this road will be completed
into Southampton.
Considerable widening and grade reduction was undertaken, notably between
Hepworth and Lake Huron on Road No. 8 and east of Burgoyne on the road
from Tara to Port Elgin.
Equipment: The more important items of equipment acquired during the
year consisted of 1 heavy duty power maintainer equipped with snow plough, 1
Diesel type power unit for crusher operation, and 1 Diesel caterpillar tractor. A
new snow plough and wing was purchased for use on their F. W. D. truck in
lieu of the one previously supplied by the Department for use on King's High-
ways' snow removal work. I.esser items of equipment included a machine for
the manufacture of snow fence, a vibrator for use on concrete work and various
shop equipment and tools for use in the machine shop.
Maintenance: Three crushing plants were operated by the county during the
season and a considerable quantity of crushed gravel was obtained from the
township municipalities at the rate per culjic yard prevailing on their individual
contracts. This practice was followed where a township had a setup convenient
to where gravel was required on county roads in the vicinity.
Demands for winter snow clearing are yearly becoming more insistent, and
this item is entailing an increased expenditure as time goes on.
IMPROVEMENT IN ONTARIO FOR 1939 55
Tlu' niorr lifa\il\- traxt-llfd j^ruvi-l roads in the s\stfiii wc-rc- IrtaU-d witli
calcium chloride as a dust layer and stabilizer, and pro\ed very satisfactory.
The demand for dust prevention on the roads is constantly beconiin;,' more
pressing;, and aside from the safety element, it would appear that from the stand-
point of conservation of material this practice is amplv iustitied.
Dufferin — Constructit)n : A limited construction jjroj^'ram was undertaken
dnrinj; the year. Bridj^a- work was limited to one small houndarv line bridj^e and
the extension of 2 culverts on the road north of ('.rand X'allev. At several points
on the system, stretches of wideninjj; and j^^rade reduction were undertaken,
notably on the Hockley Road, on Road 10 in JMulmur at Lot 23, and on Road
14 near the Grey boundary. Several corrugated iron and creosoted wood culverts
were installed.
Maintenance: General maintenance was carried out over the entire system
with crushed gravel, which in this county is crushed to -^4 inch. An increased
mileage was treated with calcium chloride this year, and very satisfactory results
were obtained. During the winter of 1938-39 a snow clearing program was
inaugurated and the main county highways were kept open for winter travel
the greater part of the winter.
No major additions to county road building equipment during the year.
Grey — Construction: No major construction projects were undertaken on
the county system during the season. However, several miles of road have been
widened and graded by the power graders. Excellent results have been obtained
by these machines where the roadsides are reasonably free from obstructions,
and no considerable grade reduction is required. Several corrugated iron pipe
culverts were installed during the year.
Maintenance: One of the major items of maintenance is occasioned bv dust
prevention and stabilization of the gravel roads which comprise the county
system. Calcium chloride is used for this purpose in this county. The average
rate of application over approximately 112 miles was 5.2 tons per mile at an
average cost of S152.89 per mile. It is the opinion of the road authorities in
this county that the expenditure for this purpose is well warranted due to the
fact that a much greater proportion of the gravel applied to the roads is retained
rather than blown away in dust, and the amount of dragging required to keep
the roads in good riding condition is very materially reduced. Many of the
roads thus treated were not dragged at all during July and August.
Although the county owns and operates five power maintainers, the full
time of two of these machines was taken up by the township municipalities
which rent them for part of their maintenance work. In this connection increased
advantage is being taken by the townships of this service, and it appears to be
working out to the advantage of all concerned.
The policy in this county of not snow ploughing any of the county roads is
still adhered to, although in many quarters the demand for this winter service
is becoming more insistent, and it would appear that some attempt at snow
clearing will have to be made before many seasons pass.
One heavv power maintainer was acquired late in the season, making a total
of six of these machines now in the county.
Grey-Owen Sound Suburban Roads — The chief item of construction under-
taken by the Commission during the past season was the improvement of the
approach to Owen Sound from the southwest by way of what is known as the
Kilsyth Road. The dangerous sharp turn at the south city limits and the gradient
of the adjacent hill to the west was greatly improved.
56 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY No. 32
On the road leading north from the city along the west bay shore, approxi-
mately two miles from the end of the present pavement was graded and widened,
and the grades improved.
Apart from the above, the activities of the Commission were confined mainly
to general maintenance of the roads under their jurisdiction.
District No. 6 — Counties of Halton, Ontario, Peel, Simcoe and York.
Halton — Construction : Continuing with its annual low-cost paving program,
the County of Halton constructed 4.8 miles of bituminous gravel mulch pavement
on Road 5so. 8 extending from Milton to Hornby. I'nder agreement with the
Town of Georgetown the county constructed three quarters of a mile of vStancol
pavement on the Georgetown connecting links. Stancol shoulders 4 feet in width
were constructed on each side of the 10-foot concrete pavement on Road No. 3
in Concession I, north of Dundas Street in Trafalgar Township. A total of 4J^
miles of road was graded to standard width and surfaced with crushed gravel.
Maintenance: Maintenance work consisted of the application of approxi-
mately 5,800 cubic yards of crushed gravel, 71^ miles of dust laying with calcium
chloride, 70 miles of roadside weed spraying, and routine dragging of the roads
with power equipment. The county operates a very efficient gravel crushing
plant which supplies the bulk of surfacing material used. All roads were kept
open for traffic during the winter months by means of snow ploughs and trucks.
The county purchased two small trucks during the year.
Ontario — Construction: A total of 5.1 miles of bituminous retread was

of Udney. A total of 7.01 miles of road was graded to standard width and 5.56
miles surfaced with crushed gravel. This included 1.5 miles on Road No. 1,
Concessions IV and V, Uxbridge Township, which involved considerable heavy
work in improving the grade and alignment of this road.
Maintenance: Maintenance work consisted of the application of approxi-
mately 8,600 cubic yards of crushed stone and gravel; 43^2 miles of bituminous
surface treatment; about 50 miles of dust laying with calcium chloride; 27 miles
of roadside weed spraying and routine dragging of the roads with power equip-
ment. The county operates two crushing plants which produce practically all
the surfacing material used. All roads were kept open for traffic during the
winter months with snow ploughs and trucks.
The countv purchased an up-to-date weed-spraying machine and one truck
during the year.
Peel — Construction: A total of 1.8 miles of bituminous gravel mulch pave-
ment was constructed; 0.8 miles on Road No. 1, Lots 9 and 10, Toronto Town-
ship, north of vStreetsville; 0.8 miles on Road No. 9 in Concession II west,

Two 20-foot span reinforced concrete slab bridges were constructed.
Maintenance: Maintenance work consisted of the application of approxi-
mately 11,900 cubic yards of crushed gravel; 20 miles of dust prevention treat-
ment with oil ; 7') miles of dust prevention treatment with calcium chloride and
routine dragging of the roads with power ecjuipment.
The roads were kept open as far as possible during the winter months with
snow ploughs and trucks.
Simcoe — Construction: A total of 5.75 miles of road was graded to standard
width and surfaced with crushed gravel as follows: 1 mile on Road No. 4, Lots
3 to 5, Flos Township; 2 miles on Road No. 5, Lots 21 to 24, Tossorontio Town-
ship; 0.75 miles on Road No. 11 in Concession III, Oro Township; 1 mile on
Road No. 7, opposite Lot 28, Concession I, Sunnidale Township, and 1 mile on
Road No. 19 in Concessions II and III, Medonte Township.
All of the grading work was done with county-owned equipment, consisting
of a 60 H.P. caterpillar Diesel tractor, a leaning wheel grader and a 5-yard
Continental scraper at very reasonable cost.
A 30-foot top width of roadway was provided in all cases and a high standard
of grade and alignment attained.
Three concrete slab culverts and two steel arch culverts were constructed.
Maintenance: Maintenance work consisted of 0.6 miles of bituminous surface
treatment; 45 miles dust-prevention treatment with calcium chloride; 14 miles
of clav-gravel stabilization, the application of about 40,000 cubic yards of gravel
and stone, and routine dragging of the roads with power equipment.
Two hundred and twenty miles of road were kept open for traffic during the
winter months by means of snow ploughs and trucks.
The county added to its grading equipment during the year by purchasing
a 5-vard Continental scraper. The county also purchased a F. W. D. truck
equipped with St. Paul under-body blade. This truck was put into service for
road dragging during the year and gave very satisfactory service. Towards the
end of the vear a snow plough and wing were purchased, mounted on the F. W. D.
truck, and the unit put into service for snow clearing.
York — Construction: The main construction projects carried out during
the year were as follows: 2.54 miles of bituminous penetration macadam on
Road No. 8 from Victoria Square to Gormley. Completion of the 1938 grading
contract on Road No. 23, Lots 11 to 26, East Gwillimbury Township, and con-
struction of a creosoted timber bridge, 30-foot span, and 30-foot roadway on
Road No. 23 opposite Lot 20, East Gwilhmbury Township.
The county also contributed to the cost of paving under the new subway on
Kipling Avenue.
Maintenance: Maintenance work consisted of the application of about 4,500
cubic yards of gravel and 912 tons of stone; 51.6 miles of bituminous surface
treatment; 80 miles of dust-prevention treatment with calcium chloride; routine
dragging of gravel roads with power equipment and bituminous crack filling and
patching of concrete and bituminous pavements.
The countv purchased a new line marker for zone-painting purposes and two
trucks in addition to small items of equipment.
Considerable attention was given to zone painting and the erection and
maintenance of symbol signs and guard rails. The county is to be commended
for the verv fine appearance of the roads generally and the efforts made to
provide for the safety of the travelling public.
58 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY Xo. 32
District No. 7 — Counties Xorthumberland and Durham, Peterborough, Prince
Edward and Victoria.
Northmnberland and Durham — The purchase of a 60 H.P. Diesel tractor
with power controlled grader, and LaTourneau scraper, marked a new period of
road construction in the counties. Ten and one-half miles of road were completely
rebuilt. \'ery steep grades were reduced, new culverts installed and the roads
widened and all surfaced ; also the fences were set back to provide a 66-foot right-
of-way. Operating costs on the grading were as low as .0()C per cubic yard. The
crushing equipment was improved by the installation of a vibrating screen and
in consequence the crushed gravel delivered on the road was far superior to that
of previous years. The application was also greatly reduced.
The stabilization of gravel roads with calcium chloride, which commenced
in 1938, was continued last year, with the addition of 30 miles, making now a
total of 70 miles of road in this category. A building for the housing of the
counties' equipment was erected at Cobourg at a cost in the neighbourhood of
$2,800.00. A G & C truck was added to the fleet to be used for gravelling and
slowploughing operations.
Peterborough — Perhaps the most important individual job in the county was
the construction on the road leading from Westwood to Highway Xo. 7 of a
twin span rigid frame, reinforced concrete bridge, each span 37 feet 11 inches.
The bridge was designed bv Mr. A. E. Chalmers, Countv Engineer, at a cost
of $5,800.00.
Seven and three-quarter miles of road were brought up to standard cross-
section and 2-^4 miles of asphaltic mulch were laid.
The dust-prevention program was continued, 63 miles being treated with
calcium chloride and 6 miles treated with sodium chloride.
(Jne Frink \'-type snow plough with 11 -foot wing was purchased.
Prince Edii'ard — Xew construction consisted of 4 separate jobs totalling 3
miles. Heavv hill cutting was encountered and in some cases the cuts were sloped
out to the full width of the right-of-way to avoid bad snow condition. The sur-
facing program was continued, 2^ o miles of tar retread, and ^ 2 niile of tar mulch
being laid.
Three and one-half miles of bituminous roads received surface treatments.
Dust-prevention treatment was carried out as formerly, 13 miles treated with
oil and 15 miles with calcium chloride.
The following machinery was purchased: One Adams Xo. 50 power grader
with snow-plough wing; 1 used White steam engine; 1 Adams snow plough; 1
Frink snow plough.
Victoria — In \'ictoria County 10^2 miles of road were constructed, the
most important section being a relocation of Road Xo. 5 on the west side of
Pigeon Lake. One and one-half miles of tar retread were constructed, one section
extending work north of Oakwood and the other east of Fenelon Falls on the
Bobcaygeon Road.
Xine miles were added to the system of calcium chloride stabilized roads,
making a total of 7<S miles. The standard of this type of road ranks among the
highest in the province.
Two \'-type snowploughs with levelling wings were purchased, which greatly
improved the control of snow.
IMPROVEMENT IN ONTARIO FOR 1«).30 59
District No. 8 — Counties of Frontcnac, Hastings, Leeds and (Jrcnvillc, and
Lennox and Addington.
Frontcnac Kinj^'ston suhiirl)an construction consisted of 2 miles of asplialt
plant-mix top, built with the suburban-owned plant on the (ilenburnie Road. A
narrow concrete culvert was widened on Road No. lA by havinj( ten feet added
to each side. ( )n the county roads, it was realized that the old macadam roads
were wearinj^ out. To overcome this, the County Road Committee raised the
road rate one mill and borrowed the suburban pavinj^ plant. Five and one-half
miles, 1() feet wide, was paved with this help and an excellent start made to
put the roads Imck in shape. The fill was widened at Buck Lake Bridge, and the
rock drilled for wideninj^ alonj,^ Wolfe Lake on Road No. 3.
Machinery: A new Walters truck was purchased to replace the one destroyed
by fire, also 1 new Veager pump for dewatering work w^here coffer dams are used.
Maintenance: All roads were kept open for winter motor traffic with the
two ploughs, and trucks owned by the suburban roads, and county roads. Bush
was kept down with chemical weed killer. Calcium chloride was used extensively
and all roads maintained properly.
Hastings — The two gaps totalling 13^3 miles in length (on the Madoc Road)
left in 1932 were paved with an 18-foot wide mulch type commercial plant-mix
asphalt material known under the trade name "Stancol." The material was
mixed at the contractor's plant at the Fuller Pit, and hauled, laid and rolled
early in September. The grading, ditching, shouldering, culvert installation,
guard rail erection, and all other work was done by county forces, and gave a
great deal of employment. One large cut, involving roughly 4,000 cubic yards,
was made to secure better vision and grades south of the C. N. R. crossing.
A short gap on the county pavement in Marlbank \'illage, comprising some
60 feet between two railway tracks, was paved with material from the same
source.
The low sections of the approaches to Black Creek Bridge on the .Sulphide
Road were raised with rock fill taken from rock cuts at high points. This fill
was to prevent flooding as the road was impassable to traffic every spring owing
to the rise of Stocco Lake.
A new motor grader was purchased.
Maintenance: Three steel bridges were scraped and repainted. New timber
flooring was placed on county bridges at Cannifton, Milltown.
The field tile on Road No. .5A, Sidney Township, which had been down for
40 years, was taken up, cleaned, the broken tile replaced and again installed
to improve drainage.
Twentv miles of county roads were treated with calcium chloride at an
average cost of .S132.00 per mile, and 32 miles were treated with oil or asphalt
at an average cost of §259. 00 per mile.
Extra material was placed on the roads from two county crushers operating
at Coe Hill, Moira Lake, Tyendinaga Township, Stirling, Springbrook, Tweed and
Marlbank.
One new carload of snow fence was purchased and the roads were kept open
in winter by contract.
Leeds and Grenville — The united counties of Leeds and Grenville have a
definite program for low cost pavement and this year paved 13 14 miles, bringing
the total mileage of pavement to date up to 81-^4 miles.
60 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY No. 32
Two bridges were built; the Garreton Bridge on County Road No. 20 is a
steel bridge, 54-foot span on concrete abutments and the Otter Creek Bridge in
the Smith's Falls Suburban Area is a steel bridge 30-foot in span built on the
old abutments.
Extensive grading for alignment grade or davlighting was done on County
Roads Nos. 1, 3, 5, 16 and 20.
A new Adams motor grader was purchased, making one for each of the
united counties, and a machine shed built near Brockville to house the machinery.
Maintenance: Gravel roads were thoroughly maintained with the two motor
graders. Brush was cut, the ditches cleaned, and all roads were kept smooth.
Two extra carloads of snow fence were purchased and erected to help with snow
removal. Winter roads were kept open as usual by the bonusing of Snow Clubs
at a price per mile.
Lennox and Addington — Owing to the attempt at debt reduction and the
diverting of some road funds to the general account to help cover the cost of
Equalized Assessment, there was very little construction work in 1939.
The construction consisted of 8 miles of right-of-way widened with new fence,
a few hills graded to improve the drainage and 22 corrugated iron pipe culverts
installed.
Maintenance: All gravel roads were maintained by power grader and kept
in'good condition during the year. The more important gravel roads were treated
with calcium chloride and patched with gravel and loose stone as required.
Approximately 26 miles of hard-surfaced roads were surface treated and patched.
vScreened gravel and limestone chips were used for cover material. The work of
surface treatment and crushing was done by day labour with county equipment.
Weeds and brush were cut over the entire system and weed killer was used.
District No. 9 — Counties of Prescott and Russell, and Stormont, Dundas and
Glengarry.
Prescott and Russell — After paying a large sum for back debts, these counties,
under the guidance of their new engineer, Mr. R. Boismenu, found it impossible
to carrv on an extensive program. However, their progress was favourable.
County Road No. 9 in Plantagenet North Township was widened to 66 feet
and 2 miles were graded to standard dimensions. Twenty-eight pipe culverts
were installed.
The Dawson Bridge was rebuilt. It is of timber construction, 40-foot span
and has a centre pier. The Bearbrook Bridge, 80-foot span, steel superstructure
with concrete abutments, was practically rebuilt.
All the county road system was well maintained, and considerable attention
was given to the patching of bituminous surfaces. Sixty miles of snow roads
were kept open.
Stormont, Dundas and (llengarry — In these three united counties a total of
19 miles of bituminous retread were laid over a two-foot gravel base, and a surface
treatment was applied to 23 miles of bituminous roads. Twenty-two thousand
cubic yards of gravel were used in resurfacing. Two and a half miles of road were
widened (two different stretches) to (Ui feet, and graded. This was the initial
step in a widening program outlined for all roads where new construction is
necessary. Two hundred tons of calcium chloride were used as a dust layer on
the more heavily travelled gravel roads.
Six new 3} 2-ton trucks equipped with new ploughs and wings were purchased
and used in maintaining snow roads throughout the entire system of 464 miles.
IMPROVEMENT IN ONTARIO FOR 1939 61
District No. 10 — Counties of Carleton, Lanark and Renfrew.
Carleton — A good deal of work was done in the county this year and a total
of 21 miles of road was surfaced with either surface treatment or low-cost bi-
tuminous surface.
The Ottawa Suburban Commission completed the widening of the Richmond
Road through the Village of Westboro, thus finally removing all traces of the
bottle-neck in the \'illage of Westboro and Ottawa West.
The Commission also did some widening farther out on the Richmond Road
and started to widen the River Road between the airport and the city in order
to relieve congestion.
The low cost surfacing in the county system was added to during the year.
Considerable attention is also being paid to maintenance.
Lanark — Two more old timber bridges were replaced this year, one being
45-foot span and the other 20, and a bad swamp area was got rid of by detouring
the road around the swamp on solid ground.
The Rideau Ferry Road had another mile widened on the surface, while low-
cost surfaces were put on two other roads for a distance of approximately one
mile each.
A light power maintainer for use in the narrower county roads and in the
townships was purchased and also a snow plough for their F. W. D. truck, and
the latter was able to keep open a considerable mileage of roads this winter.
The Smith's Falls-Lanark County vSuburban Roads Commission was revived
during the winter and has assumed charge of about six miles of Smith's Falls-
Merrickville Road.
Renfrew — The construction programme in this county was continued during
the year and about eight miles of road were built this year in three townships.
A considerable addition was made to the mileage of stabilized road and also
in the wav of dust layer, in both cases calcium chloride being the stabilizing
medium.
A three-ton truck, concrete mixer and a leaning wheel grader were purchased
during the year.
Township Roads

dust prevention. Five hundred and sixty-two miles were kept free of snow by
mechanical equipment. Forty-five thousand and two cubic yards pitrun gravel.
7,9()0 cubic yards crushed gravel and 24,949 cubic yards crushed stone was
applied to the roads.
Lanibton — The work consisted of laying 3 miles of drainage tile along the
roads, grading 53 miles to standard, installing 85 metal and 4 concrete culverts.
Six concrete bridges were built. Four miles were tieated with oil and 8 miles

District No. 2 — Toicnships in the Counties of El^in, Middlesex, Xorfolk and
Oxford.
A total of 1 13,701 cubic yards pitrun gravel, 78.74 cubic yards crushed gravel
and 17,<S97 cubic yards commercial crushed stone were applied to the township
road systems. Four new power maintainers were purchased, which showed a
distinct improvement in road surfaces. Nine new snow ploughs purcha.sed show
the increased desire of municipalities to keep roads open in winter. Forty-three
miles were treated with dustlayer for the prevention of dust, as well as conserva-
tion of metal. A marked improvement was shown on all township roads, showing
an increasing desire of the municipalities to modernize the standard of their
roads. vSix concrete box culverts, 4 concrete bridges and some 135 corrugated
iron pipes were used. Approximately 28 miles of existing road were graded to
modern highway standards.
District No. 3 — Townships in the Counties of Huron, Perth, Waterloo and
Wellington.
Huron — Construction consisted mainly of ditching and installing pipes and
the building of culverts. Maintenance consisted of dragging and resurfacing,
using approximately 84,862 cubic yards of gravel. Weeds were cut and several
townships undertook spraying.
Perth — Construction consisted of 4 bridges over 10 feet and installation of
pipe culverts with approximately two miles of new grade. Roads were main-
tained and resurfaced, using approximately 77,600 cubic yards of gravel. Five
power maintainers are owned by townships.
Waterloo — Construction consisted of ditching approximately two miles of
road and grading 4 miles, and the installation of pipes. Roads were well main-
tained with power equipment, and the use of 40,500 cubic yards of gravel. Every
township in Waterloo County has its own power maintainer.
Wellington — Construction consisted of ditching approximately three miles
of road and grading 6 miles, and installation of pipe culverts. One bridge over
10 feet and 3 concrete culverts were built. Roads were maintained with power
maintainers and small graders. County equipment was used in several townships.
Seventv-seven thousand, nine hundred and ninety-seven cubic yards of gravel
were used.
District No. 4 — Townships in the Counties of Brant, Haldimand, Lincoln,
Welland and Wentworth.
The townships in this district constructed two bridges and seven culverts
of concrete. Thev graded 85 miles of road and gravelled 63 miles. Sixty-eight
and one-half miles of black top road were resurfaced and 6 miles of road were
surface treated for the first time. The townships maintained their roads to a fair
standard for the past year and kept open by mechanical equipment for winter
traffic over 1,100 miles of road.
64 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY No 32
District No. 5 — Ton'nships in the Counties of Bruce, Duffer in and Grey.
The township activities for the year in this district will be slightly below the
average for the past few years. There was, however, an increase in the number
of bridge replacements in the district. This was due, I consider, to the fact that
many townships have been postponing the renewal of bridges during the years
of depression, and many of these have arrived at the stage where it was imperative
that they be replaced. This situation will probably hold for the next few years.
Fourteen such bridges, ranging from 12 feet to 80 feet in span, were replaced
by townships in this area during 1939, several of them being used bridges which
had become obsolete for service in the county systems and King's Highways.
Seventeen concrete slab and steel arch culverts were installed, and approxi-
mately 80 pipe and tile culverts placed.
Approximately 50 miles of new grade was put up, and one township purchased
a power maintainer. This makes a total of 6 power maintainers owned and
operated by the townships. In addition, they are making increasing use of
county-owned equipment on a rental basis.
Owing to the favourable prices obtained in recent years for crushing and
hauling gravel, several townships which operated their own crushing plants have
laid them up or scrapped them.
District No. 6 — Townships in the Counties of Halton, Ontario, Peel, Simcoe
and York.
A total of about sixty-eight miles of construction grading was done, of which
about 58 miles were surfaced wuth gravel.
Ten bridges and 51 concrete and steel arch culverts were constructed and
numerous pipe culverts installed.
In the Townships of York and North York, a total of 2^ miles of black base
pavement were constructed as a local improvement. In the Township of East
York, 2.2 miles of surface-treated stone pavement were constructed.
A total of approximately 285 miles were treated with dust preventive, both
oil and calcium chloride being used.
Five additional townships in District No. 6 purchased power graders during
the year.
Five townships purchased snow ploughs and towards the close of the year a
number of other townships were planning to make arrangements for snow
ploughing during the winter.
There is a growing demand throughout the rural districts foi snow-clearing
services during the winter months and it seems as if the majority of townships
will have to make some provision for dealing with this problem.
District No. 7 — Townships in the Counties of Northumberland and Durham,
Peterborough, Prince Edward and Victoria.
Northumberland and Durham — Generally speaking, the construction activi-
ties of the townships were curtailed, or, at least, confined to bridges. In Man vers
Township a 75 foot steel span was built across the East River. Brighton Town-
ship constructed a 12 by 5 reinforced concrete bridge, and continuing its policy
of building a bridge a year, Percy Township constructed a 24 foot steel and
concrete job over the Burnely Creek. A special note was the decision by South
IMPROVEMENT IN ONTARIO FOR Wr.V.) 05
Monaghan Township to discard statute labour and to operate under The High-
way Improvement Act (the last of the Mohicans). Four townships in the county
made use of calcium chloride as a stabilizer.
Pctcrhoroui^li — Main construction activity was as follows: In Anstruther
and Chandos Townships, the road leading from Apsley to the west bay of Loon
Lake received special attention. One hill was cut down and straightened and the
rest of the road made passable to the summer trafhc. .Special attention was paid
to drainage, numerous cedar culverts ])eing built. In North Monaghan, three-
quarter miles of asphalt-gravel mulch were laid. Douro Township built three-
quarter miles of new road to develop the south shore of Clear Lake as a tourist
resort.
Several townships kept their main road open during the winter by snow
ploughing.
Prince Eihcani — Work in the townships was of a general maintenance
nature. Appro.ximately four miles in Ameliasburg Township were stabilized with
calcium chloride.
\ 'ictoria — The work was principally of a routine maintenance nature.
\'erulam Township purchased a crushing plant, which received considerable use,
and ( )ps Township rebuilt and put in service a crusher that had been idle for
several years.
District No. 8 — Townships in the Counties of Frontenac, Hastings, Leeds and
Grenville and Lennox and Addington.
Frontenac — Thirteen and three-quarter miles of gravel or crushed stone was
placed on new grades. Of this mileage, one-half mile was new road, and the
remainder was existing road improvement. Sixty-seven metal and concrete pipe
culverts w^ere installed, twenty-eight wood and three concrete culverts built.
Machinery Purchased : Horse-drawn snow ploughs, 1 ; truck snow ploughs, 1 ;
pull graders, 1; trucks, medium, 1.
Maintenance: Brush was reinoved from the sides of roads, the total clearing
amounting to 14 acres. Nine hundred and forty-three miles were kept smooth
with pull graders and 1 mile treated with calcium chloride. For \vinter traffic,
324 miles were kept open for motor traffic. All roads were kept in excellent travel
condition during the summer.
Hastings — One-half mile of asphalt penetration pavement was built on
MacDonald Avenue, a boundary line road of the City of Belleville. One and
one-half miles of new road, also thirteen and one-quarter miles of existing road
were ditched, graded and covered with crushed stone or gravel. Seventeen
hundred and fifty feet of guide rail was erected, 62 metal culverts, 147 wooden
culverts and 1 concrete culvert were built. Three wood bridges over 10-foot
span were constructed.
One horse-drawn snow plough, 2 truck ploughs, 2 medium-pull graders, 1
light motor grader, and 2 light crushers were purchased.
^Maintenance: Two hundred and forty-three miles of township roads were
kept open for winter motor traffic. Eight hundred and seventy-seven miles were
kept smooth with pull gradeis and 200 miles with motor graders. Fourteen miles
were treated with calcium chloride.
Leeds and Grenville — One mile of tar penetration and 2.85 miles of plant-mix
asphalt were built; 4.65 miles of gravel or crushed stone was laid on new grade.
One new steel bridge, 32-foot span, was built on concrete abutments.
Gli REPORT UPON HIGHWAY Xo 32
One truck snow plough, 1 light motor grader, 1 medium motor grader were
purchased.
Maintenance: Five hundred and twenty miles were kept smooth with pull
graders, and 446 miles with motor graders. Two and one-quarter miles were
treated with calcium chloride. Very few roads were kept open for motor traffic
during the winter and only 149 miles were ploughed.
Lennox and Addington — Three miles of gravel or crushed stone was placed
on new grades. Eight metal, and concrete pipe culverts, 19 wood and 2 concrete
culverts were built. Five wooden bridges over 10-foot span were constructed in
the northern townships.
^lachinerv Purchased: Horse-drawn snow ploughs, 13; pull graders, medium, 1.
jMaintenance: Five hundred and sixty-five miles were kept smooth with pull
graders and 75 miles with motor graders. Thiee hundred and thirty-two miles of
winter road were kept open for motor traffic with horse-drawn and mechanical
ploughs. All roads were kept passable for traffic during the summer. Five miles
were treated with calcium chloride.
District No. 9 — Townships in the Counties of Prescott and Russell, Stormont,
Dundas and Glengarry.
Prescott and Russell — These townships are steadily increasing their mileage
of gravel-surfaced roads, and are using a better grade of gravel each year. Four
and one-half miles were graded and gravelled. Longueuil Township built a
reinforced concrete culvert 40 feet wide and 5 high. A concrete culvert was built
in Clarence Township; 32 pipe culverts were installed. The usual maintenance
work was well done.
Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry — A concrete bridge was built in Roxborough
Township. Seventy-three pipe culverts were installed and 2 metal arch culverts
were constructed. Two and one-half miles of new grades were gravelled. A
bituminous surface treatment was given 3 miles and 53 miles were treated with
calcium chloride for dust prevention. A total of 68,000 cubic yards of gravel
were used in resurfacing the township roads.
District No. 10 — Toicnships in the C\)unties of Carlcton, Lanark and Renfreu'.
Carleton — Maintenance was the chief feature in the townships in this county
this year. The Township of Xepean purchased a power grader and have used it
to considerable advantage. The Gloucester Township machine has also been in
full use all year and successful use of these machines has created an awakening
interest in the remainder of the townships as to the advantages of machinery for
maintenance and construction of township roads.
Lanark - As in the last few years, the work in this county has been almost
entirely maintenance, although a small amount of work has been done in improv-
ing visibility in naiiow rock cuts.
Renfrew — There is now only one township in this county not working under
the Highway Improvetnent Act, and the work undertaken in the townships are
principally of a maintenance nature and the work done reflects the willingness
of the authorities to co-operate with the Department in road improvement. The
townships are endeavouring to build up gradually the requisite machinery for the
maintenance of roads.
IMPRCn'EMENT IN ONTARIO FOR 1939 07
District No. \\ -Tou-nships in the District of Miiskoka and the Provisional
County of Haliburton.
Halihiirton — All townships in this district are now operating under the
Highway Improvement Act. Maintenance work was efficiently carried out over
the entire county. All bridges and culverts were kept in good repair. Many
bad hills and sharp curves were eliminated. Roads were improved to open up
Lake .Shore property to tourists and summer cottagers. Considerable road
widening was done in various townships.
Mnskoka — One and one-half miles of gravel mulch surface was laid on the
Port vSandfield Road, Mcdora Township. Considerable widening of present
narrow roads was carried out. General maintenance work was efficiently done.
Bridges and culverts were kept in good repair and ditches cleaned out. Many
of the main roads in the townships are now being snow ploughed. Improvement
of road surface during tourist season was very noticeable in all townships. Many
bad curves were eliminated.
District No. 12 — Ton'nships in the District of Parry Sound.
With an increase in by-laws in 1939, favourable progress was made in the
improvement of roads in townships operating under The Highway Improvement
Act. Improvement in alignment and widening of narrow grades and drainage
work was carried out extensively in all townships, and new roads, opening up
summer resort properties, were established and, in most cases, constructed.
Maintenance work was efficiently carried out over the entire district. All
bridges and culverts were kept in good repair.
Shawanaga and Parry Island Indian Reserves took aid under The Highway
Improvement Act for the first time, and the appreciation of aid given was shown
by the excellent work.
District No. 13 — Townships in Nipissing and Most of Sudbury.
There has been little work of an outstanding nature in this district but the
principal features are as follows:
The Township of West Ferris constructed 1.2 miles of light gravel mulch with
an 18-foot roadway. This was the only hard-surfacing undertaken. .Sixteen
bridges were extensively repaired or entirely reconstructed. Department of
Highways day labour gangs performed the work on nine of the larger ones. In
^VIcKim Township a 30-foot creosoted timber bridge on piles was built, providing
an 18-foot roadway. All others were of untreated native timber — the largest
being in Calvin Township over the Amable du Fond River, with an approximate
length of 100 feet and a 14-foot roadway.
Approximately 500 culverts were built or repaired and of these only 32 were
of other than untreated timber.
There were no large road construction undertakings. Of the 7.60 miles of
new road shown as constructed, very little has yet been completed to the extent
of being gravelled.
The construction expenditure returns are considerably higher than last year.
Much of this is due to extensive reshaping and gravelling of existing roads and
might be more properly classified as extraordinary maintenance.
68 REPORT UPON HIGHWAY No. 32
The only power equipment purchased was a two-ton truck by McKim Town-
ship. Two garages were built and six medium-sized horse-drawn graders pur-
chased.
Dust layer has been used in Chapleau and West Ferris Townships only. A
general policy of snow-ploughing is carried out in Chapleau, McKim, Xeelon
and Garson, West Ferris, East Ferris, Widdifield and Blezard.
With the exception of the West Ferris mulching no crushed gravel or stone
has been used.
Many of the townships have shown a definite improvement in the conduct
of their work. Unfortunately vStatute Labour ideas are deeply rooted in the
minds of many township residents and it is very difficult to create a desire for
efficient and economical methods. The creation of better roads is still secondary
to earning money on the roads to pay taxes.
District No. 14 — Townships in Temiskaniing and Part of Cochrane (South).
Some 25 miles of road were reconstructed during the year, much of which
consisted of widening of the old "single track." The comparatively wet season
placed considerable emphasis on drainage; this is reflected noticeably in the
figures for ditching, both in construction and maintenance. There were 73 pipe
culverts installed.
Over 50,000 cubic yards of gravel was placed on the roads , about half of
which was crushed.
Four wooden bridges were rebuilt and two were replaced with permanent
structures and one with a concrete culvert and fill.
Dust Prevention: Oil or calcium was applied to about 40 miles of road.
Snow fence was erected, a total of 17^4 miles, and 60 miles of road were kept
open to traffic all winter with snow ploughs.
District No. 18 — Algoua, Manitonlin and Pari of Sudbury.
vSmall timber bridges were replaced in the following townships: (1) Ruther-
ford and George Island; Tehkummah (8); Thessalon (I); Korah (2); McDonald
(3); Baldwin (1); Plummer, additional (1); Hallam (2), and Sandfield (1).
Nairn Township built about a mile of new road north of the Spanish River
to avoid running alongside the river where road was continually caving in.
Hallam Township completed a new cut-olT in Lee\'alley where work had been
commenced a few years ago and never completed.
Ale Donald Township widened and improved greatly the road from Echo
Bay to the northern boundary to facilitate timber operations and open roads to
lakes for tourists.
All townships have commenced to widen and improve contour of roads.
Other than the above, most of the work was gravelling and general mainte-
nance. It has been necessary to apply most of their effort to this work up to
the present to make these roads really passable, as it has only been recently that
they have been properly organized.
IMPROVEMENT IN ONTARIO FOR 1930 G9
District No. M) — Townships in the District of Thunder Bay.

ROAD CONFERENCES
It has been customary for our Branch of the Department of Highways to
call a conference in Toronto, during February, of all the county and township
road superintendents and engineers who are working under The Highway Im-
provement Act. In 1939 the annual conference celebrated its twenty-fifth
anniversary and was unique in that, for the first time, possible representation
covered the entire province.
Several items of interest to county road superintendents remained unsettled
from the February conference and it was planned to hold a smaller, a special
conference later in the year to discuss these matters. In the meantime the need
for several administrative changes arose and a meeting was convened by the
Municipal Roads Branch on November 29th and 30th. This was followed by a
meeting of Branch oiTicials on December 1st.
For some years it has been felt that an improvement could be made in the
system of keeping county and township road accounts, particularly with a view
to obtaining more uniform and accurate cost records. Mr. G. E. F. Smith, Chief
Accountant of the Department, suggested several changes based on a province-
wide study of the various systems at present in use. The proposals outlined by
Mr. Smith will be put into effect during 1940.
There has been considerable difficulty as well in the matter of purchasing
machinery. In accordance with the regulations concerning the purchase of
supplies and materials by nuniicipalities, the Department has had no other choice
but allow subsidy on the lowest tender submitted on machines meeting certain
specifications. It has been argued that, over a period of years, economy of
operation will offset a higher initial cost. The Department has considered many
systems of avoiding disputes and unfairness in this comiection and has finally
come to believe that by subsidizing a fair rental price which will cover initial
cost, depreciation, interest and repairs, it will be possible to satisfy all parties
IMPROVKMENT IN ONTARIO FOR UYM) 7]_
concfriR-d. Tin- rental rate will ht- the same for all imiiiicipalities for similar
machines. ( )peratinj( costs vary ^aeatly throu^'hout the province, so operators'
wajjes, fnel, oil, etc., will be subsidi/ed as formerly.
The Department wishes to thank the county and township engineers, contrac-
tors, machinery firms and others who so heartily co-operated by furnishing
operating records and other statistics.
1940 CONFERENCES
Due to prevailing conditions at the beginning of 1940 it was deemed inadvisa-
ble to hold the annual conference on road improvement for county and township
road superintendents and engineers.
At the beginning of 1940 four district conferences were held but only two came
within the 1939-40 fiscal year. The first was held at Chatham for the municipali-
ties of Essex, Kent and Lambton counties on March the 12th and 18th, 1940,
and was the Twelfth Annual Conference for District No. 1. The second was the
Thirteenth Annual Conference at London on March loth and HJth, 1940, for the
county and township road superintendents in District No. 2, which takes in the
counties of Elgin, Middlesex, Norfolk and Oxford. Both were highly successful.
INDIAN RESERVES
Parry Sound, Shawanaga and Gibson Indian Reserves took aid under The
Highway Improvement Act for the first time in 1939, thus raising the total of
Reserves eligible to seventeen. The total expended on Reserve roads was S41,-
250.24, and the government subsidy $22,048.42.

CONCLUSION
Several county engineers left soon after the outbreak of war to take their
places in the armed forces of the Empire and the Department has asked that
municipalities adopt the system in vogue in the provincial government of making
only temporary appointments to fill such vacancies so that when a man returns
from active service he may resume his previous position.
The Department desires to acknowledge the friendly co-operation of the
county and towmship engineers and road superintendents and of the vSuburban
Commissions in the work carried out during the year. The Department is espe-
cially pleased over the attitude of the various municipalities toward the reduced
appropriations made necessary by war conditions. The thoughtfulness and
efficiency with which the appropriations w^ere used is much appreciated.

REPORT OF MOTOR VEHICLES BRAN'CH, \\m) 113
Report of the Motor Vehicles Branch, 1939
To The Honoirabuk T. B. McUiesten,
Minister of Highways.
Sir:
I have the honour to submit herewith a report of the activities of the Motor Vehicles Branch
for the year 1939:
This report includes:
(a) A detailed summary of the motor vehicle permits and drivers' licenses issued for the
1939 license year ending March 31, 1940.
(b) A statement, duly certified by the Provincial Auditor, showing the revenue derived
from all sources during the fiscal year ending March 31st, 1940.
(c) Reports dealing with the Accident Recording and Financial Responsibility Divisions
of the Branch during the calendar year.
Motor Vehicle Registrations
Vehicles registered during 1939 exceeded the total for any previous year in the history of
the motor vehicle in this Province. Comparative figures for 1938 and 1939 and the percentage
advances from the 1938 totals are shown in the table below:
Type of Permit 1938 1939
Passenger 580,364 593,693 2 . 3% Inc.
Commercial 81,642 82,206 0.7% Inc.
Two-Purpose 1.876 1,893 0.97o Inc.
Trailer 39,059 41,586 6.5% Inc.
Motorcycle 5,206 5,099 2.1% Dec.
Total 708,147 724,477 2.3% Inc.
Drivers' Licenses
Driving licenses (including 99,360 Instruction Permits) issued during 1939 totalled 998,932
or 2.4 per cent, more than the 1938 total (975,722).
Revenue
The Branch collected almost three quarters of a million dollars more revenue than during
the previous fiscal year. Gross revenue amounted to .§8,938,843.86. After deductions covering
commissions, refunds and adjustments §8,681,936.75 was transmitted to the Treasury Depart-
ment.
Public Vehicle Division
During the operating year of 1939 the number of Public Vehicle and Public Commercial
Vehicle registrations was increased about 8.5%, with an increase in revenue of .S20,635.35.
The high standard of Public Vehicle operations throughout the Province has been maintained
and the policy of refraining from granting licenses over duplicating routes, except where proof
of public necessity and convenience is shown, has resulted in improvements in equipment and
dependable service to the public.
The Public Commercial Vehicle operators have co-operated splendidly with the Department
which has resulted in fewer prosecutions for major infractions of the Commercial Vehicle Act and,
as a whole, these operations have been raised to a much higher standard.
The year witnessed an increase in the number of "school buses" operating in various parts
of the Province from twenty in 1938 to sixty-one in 1939.
No fee is charged for these buses which are used solely for the transportation of pupils to
and from school and which have proved very beneficial, particularly in rural districts.
Public Vehicle registrations totalled 899, an increase of 71, while Public Commercial Vehicle
registrations increased by 627 to 7,949. The revenue of this Division amounted to §428,003.51.
Accident Recording Division
Reported motor vehicle trafiic accidents (involving personal injury or property damage in
excess of .§50.00) totalled 13,710 during 1939, and resulted in 652 deaths, injury to 11,638 persons
and a direct damage loss to vehicles and other property amounting to SI, 860,264. There was
a slight reduction from the previous year's totals in the number of accidents and injuries, but
an increase in the number of deaths and in the amount of property damage reported. The death
rate showed very little change from 1938 and was considerably below the 1937 rate.
(More complete data with regard to Ontario accident experience during 1939 are given in
the summary appended hereto. Also refer to special study covered in the 'Ontario Traffic News'
for June, 1940.1
m REPORT OF Xc) 32
In addition to its duties as a central bureau for the collection, compilation and analysis
of motor vehicle accident statistics, this Division has given increasing attention to the individual
driver, in particular, those who have shown* frequent or flagrant disregard of the regulations,
and those who because of lack of experience, or age, physical or mental handicaps are more
accident-liable. The importance of this field of activity has been recognized by the various law
enforcement agencies, insurance companies, health departments and the medical profession, as
well as a large number of the general public and an increasing number of cases requiring attention
have thus been brought to light and dealt with each year. These efforts directed towards the
individual, together with enforcement and educational efforts designed to bring the rules of
safe practice to the attention of the general public, would seem to be the fields of activity by
which this Division may produce the most beneficial results in promoting safer travel on the
streets and highways of Ontario.
Financial Responsibility Division
During this year there were 6,317 suspension orders issued by this Division. Of these, 5,211
applied to both drivers' licenses and motor vehicle permits and required the filing of proof of
financial responsibility. Most of the others affected drivers' licenses only and were effective for
various periods of time. On December 31st, 1939, there were 14,252 financial responsibility
orders in effect.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
J. P. BiCKELL,
Registrar of Motor Vehicles.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
DIVISION FOR THE YEAR 1939
For the first time in five years the total number of suspension orders issued fell below the
total of the preeeding year. This was a result, not of decreased activity in this Division but of
a change in the legislation governing the issuance of financial responsibility suspensions, and
by the enactment of the "careless driving" provision to replace the former "reckless driving"
provision which had been nullified by Dominion legislation covering the same offence. The
alteration with respect to reckless driving required the issuance of a financial responsibility sus-
pension only when the offence caused an accident and was made retroactive to the date the
Dominion legislation became effective with the result thai a substantial number of suspension
orders issued during 1938 were rescinded. The careless driving provision did not authorize sus-
pension of license by the magistrate and required the filing of proof of financial responsibility
only when the offence was connected with an accident. For purposes of comparison the suspen-
sions resulting from both careless and reckless driving have been grouped in this report under
the former heading of reckless driving.
As in previous years, reckless driving convictions accounted for the greatest number of
suspensions, in 1939 almost 50% of the total. The number of suspensions as a result of convictions
for having care or control of a motor vehicle while intoxicated decreased appreciably.
During the years 1938 and 1939 there were 287 unsatisfied judgments for damages occasioned
by motor vehicles reported to the department. This was approximately oO% of the total reported
during the previous seven years. It is a consequence, however, of the reduction of the
minimum under which action can be taken, with respect to judgments for property damage
only, from -SIOO.OO to S2o.OO, rather than to any apparent tendency of judgment debtors to
ignore their obligations. During these same years 90, or approximately one third of those sus-
pended for this reason, did arrange for settlement of the judgments and were reinstated upon
the filing of proof of financial responsibility.
The campaign for the removal of unfit drivers from our roads by the use of the authority
vested in the Minister of Highways to revoke driving privileges was continued and some 700
suspension orders were issued under this authority. Those affected were deemed unfit to hold
drivers' licenses because of mental or physical disability or because of operating records which
showed them to be incompetent, irresponsible or contemptuous of the requirements of law. In
most cases these suspensions are intended to be permanent. The splendid assistance and whole-
hearted co-operation of the Department of Health has been an important factor in this campaign.
Table I appended hereto shows the number of financial responsibility suspensions which
have been issued in 1938 and 1939, and during the entire period this legislation has been in effect.
Table II shows the number of suspensions rescinded during the same periods. Comparison of
the two tables shows that there were 14,252 financial responsibility suspensions remaining in
effect on December 31st, 1939.
Table III shows the number of suspension orders for various causes which did not carry
with them the requirement that proof of financial responsibility be filed. These include suspensions
made effective by the courts throughout the Province as well as those given effect by the Depart-
ment. No statistics are prepared as to the expiration of these suspensions so that it is not possible
to state how many remained in effect at the end of the year. It can be estimated, however, that
not less than 2,000 were still effective at that time. Adding the financial responsibility suspensions
it may be seen that at the close of the year more than 16,000 persons were denied the use of
Ontario streets and highways as operators of motor vehicles.

Report of the Commissioner of Police for Ontario
From January 1st. 1940, to December 31st, 1040
Ontario Provincial Police,
Headquarters, Toronto.
The Honourable the Attorney-General,
Parliament Buildings, Toronto, Ontario.
Sir:
I have the honour to submit herewith my report covering the activities of
the Ontario Provincial Police together with statistical data for the period January
1st to December 31st, 1940.
The continuation of hostilities between the British Empire and Germany
with the inclusion of Italy necessitated considerable augmentation of the Force
for protective measures by the appointment of auxiliaries with corresponding
increase of duties imposed upon all ranks of the Force.
The highly creditable manner in which the citizens of the Province have come
forward to collaborate with the Force in the formation of protective bodies is
most praiseworthy.
The following voluntary auxiliary bodies affiliated with this Force have
been formed and are functioning in an excellent manner.
The Volunteer Civil Guards with a strength of approximately 40,000.
The Ontario Volunteer Constabulary.
The Mobile Column, A.R.P.
Occurrences reported to and investigated by the Force compare favourably
with former years, there being a slight decrease in both major and minor offences.
The Force has been active to restrain gambling places and houses of ill-fame
where the responsibility of law enforcement was ours.
When complaints were received regarding gambling in municipalities that
had a properly organized police force, such complaints were forwarded to the
authorities of the municipality concerned with the intimation that if assistance
were required to deal with the matter such assistance would be given by the
members of this Force.
Very extensive efforts have been made during the year by means of radio,
the press, public speakers and other methods, in an earnest endeavour to lessen
the alarming number of fatal accidents on highways throughout the Province.
There is some evidence that the continued intensified efforts are having good
effects.
I have personally visited and inspected the Headquarters of all twelve
districts during the year.

REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE
No. 34
At each District Headquarters the members of the Force were addressed
collectively and individually and inspection made of uniform, office equipment
and automobiles.
I also conferred with Crown Attorneys, Magistrates and the local Police
Officials regarding matters affecting law enforcement and found a general spirit of
co-operation and good-will combined with confidence in the work of members
of the Force.
Staff Inspectors have also periodically visited District Headquarters and
Detachments advising and instructing the personnel in matters affecting the
Force.
Data relating to the general activity of the Force will be found in the reports
submitted by District Inspectors and the Officer-in-charge of the various Branches
and Auxiliaries under sub-heads of this Report or on file in my office.

CHANGE IN PERSONNEL
On May 21st, 1940, Herbert S. McCready, ex-Sergeant of Detectives,
Toronto Police Department, was appointed Deputy Commissioner of Police for
Ontario.
Acting Chief Inspector A. B. Boyd of the Criminal Investigation Branch
was retired on superannuation June 1st, 1940. Inspector Boyd had been a
member of the Force attached to the Criminal Investigation Branch for upward
of thirty years during which period he had given to the Province faithful and
efficient service.
By Order-in-Council dated February 29th, 1940, District Inspector W. T.
Moore was retired on superannuation by reason of physical disability (impair-
ment of sight). Inspector Moore was an able administrator and left behind him
an enviable record of efficiency during his connection with the Force.
During the period January 1st to December 31st, 1940, the following appoint-
ments to and retirements from the Force became effective: —
Appointments
Deputy Commissioner 1
Provincial Constables 3
(Two of the above were promotions — one clerk and one
chauffeur.)

MEMBERS OF THE FORCE "KILLED ON DUTY"
Provincial Constable A. J. Ferguson, Motorcycle Patrol, Hawkeshury Detachment
On May 23rd, 1940, whilst Provincial Constable A. J. Ferguson of the
Motorcycle Patrol was patrolling King's Highway Number 34, near \'ankleek
Hill, he collided with the rear of an automobile and was thrown heavily from his
motorcycle, receiving serious injuries from which he died the same day.
Provincial Constable Ferguson was an excellent patrol ofificer doing difficult
work in a praiseworthy manner. He gained and held the respect of the com-
munity in which he worked and his death was a distinct loss to the Force.
Provincial Constable H. H. Dent, Rockland Detachment
On June 20th, 1940, Provincial Constable H. H. Dent of Rockland was
shot and killed at Navan Station by a foreigner whose suspicious actions he was
investigating.
A short time later the murderer (whose fingerprints identified him as John
Miki, a Finlander of Montreal) was shot and killed by Acting Sergeant A. Stringer
of Timmins who was spending his Annual Leave at Nav^an and responded to the
alarm. Sergeant Stringer, as soon as possessed of the facts, took the revolver
from his dying comrade and courageously pursued the murderer into the adjacent
bush. The murderer, who was armed with a .45 calibre Colt automatic pistol,
fired three shots at close range at Sergeant Stringer without effect and was shot
and killed b}- one shot fired by Stringer from Constable Dent's revolver.
All Provincial Constable Dent's ser\'ice with the Force had been spent at
his original post, Rockland, where he was held in the highest esteem, not only
locally but throughout the whole Count\- of Russell. The spontaneous expressions
of sympathy from all sections of the public and members of the several Police
Forces he came into contact with, coupled with the striking tribute to his sterling
worth voiced by his minister at the funeral, left no doubt as to the value of
Constable Dent as a law enforcement officer.
Provincial Constable D. L. Pickell, Motorcycle Patrol, Miniico Detachment
On July 2nd, 1940. whilst Provincial Constable D. L. Pickell of the Motor-
cycle Patrol was patrolling the Queen Elizabeth \A'a>' he was thrown from his
motorcycle and crashed heavily to the cement roadway. He was given medical
1940
ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE
15
attention at the scene of the accident and taken to St. Joseph's Hospital where he
died without regaining consciousness.
Provincial Constable Pickell had been appointed less than three months and
was still on probation. He was an e.xtreniely fine type of man with apparently
all the requisites to make a valued member of the F"orce.

CONDUCT AND DISCIPLINE
The conduct and discipline of all ranks has with a few exceptions been
excellent, and the members of the Force have shown a commendable spirit of
loyalty and efficiency in dealing with all matters brought to their attention.
The value of the work done by members of the Force on detachment duty
cannot always be measured by statistical records. There are many problems
satisfactorilv handled that are not statistically recorded.
COMMENDATIONS
Sixty-one members of the Force were commended in Police Orders during
the year for their devotion to duty and the exceptionally efficient and thorough
manner they carried out their duties in connection with the matter under inves-
tigation or as the case may be.
16 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
ARMS AND EQUIPMENT
Since the outbreak of the present war, all members of the Force have been
equipped with 12-gauge "riot type" repeating shotguns in addition to their
present issue of .38 calibre Colt revolvers.
Every District Headquarters has also been supplied with a quantity of
30.30 calibre Winchester carbines and Thompson Sub-]\Iachine guns, and the
personnel have been trained in the proper use and care of such weapons.
SERVICE REVOL\ER COMPETITION

In the Ontario Section of the Revolver Competition held by the Chief
Constables Association of Canada, 1940, the team representing this Force under
the expert tuition of their Captain, Sergeant D. H. Darby, Motorcycle Patrol,

OFFICE AND CELL ACCOMMODATION
New buildings were erected at the following detachments: —
Favourable Lake, Berens River Mines Detachment, District of Patricia:
A new detachment was opened at Favourable Lake in December, 1939, to
provide Police service for the new mining district under development in that area.
At first difficulty was found in locating any place suitable for living quarters
or office accommodation and the detachment was given facilities in one of the mine
bunkhouses.
Eventually an arrangement was effected with the Berens River xMine Com-
pany to construct a building containing living quarters and cell accommodation.
The detachment now occupies suitable quarters with good facilities fot a
married man in addition to an up-to-date office and cement cells for prisoners.
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL I*OLICE 1_7
Cold Park and WaWa DcUicIimi nts. District of A lipoma:
Owing to the closing down of a number of dAd Mines in the Gold Park
area and the consequent reduction of population, the i)uilding which was put at
our disposal, by the mining companies, for use by the Gold Park Detachment as
living quarters and Police Ofiice, was sold over our heads.
The detachment was transferred to W'aWa where iron deposits were being
developed by the Algoma Ores Limited and ovar a thousand persons were resident.
The same problem was presented here, lack of living and office accommoda-
tion. To assist in rectifying this, the Helen Iron Mine, as an inducement to keep
the detachment at Wa\Va, constructed (for the use of the member of the Force
doing duty there) a frame building on cement foundation containing living
quarters, Police Office and cell accommodation.
The building is on the mining company property and is favourably
situated about three hundred (300) yards from the Railroad Station on the
Algoma Central Railway.
Red Lake Detachment, District of Patricia:
During the summer of 1940 a much needed want was filled by the erection of
a building containing Police Office and cells for use by the Red Lake Detachment.
The building is single storied, 12 feet by 24 feet, built on Crown Land on a
60-foot water front, divided into two sections, one for an office and one containing
two cells, and was erected by arrangement between the Mining Company and
the Department of Public \^'orks, under the supervision of a member of the
Force.
The management of four of the six gold mines supplied the labour and the
services of a foreman carpenter and the Department of Public Works provided
the material for the building. The cells were formerly used in a Police building
occupied by members of the Force when a detachment was located at Gold
Pines. As Red Lake and surrounding territory developed, Gold Pines was
practically abandoned, the building was sold and the detachment and cells
transferred to Red Lake.
Until the building was completed, each time an arrest was made the prisoner
had to be detained in a hotel room by the officer until he could be taken outside
or the Magistrate came in, as the case may be.
Pickle Lake Detachment, District of Patricia:
By arrangement with the management of the Pickle Crow Gold Mines, a
suitable building, containing living quarters. Police Office and cells, was erected
during the summer of 1940.
In the agreement it was provided that the Province would supply the cells
to be erected in the building.
With the co-operation of the Department of Public Works, two cells which
were not in use in the basement of the Court House at Kenora were dismantled
and shipped, one to Pickle Lake and the other to Uchi Lake, where they were
erected in the new building thereby providing safe detention for prisoners until
thev could be dealt with.
18 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
Uchi Lake Detachmeyit, District of Patricia:
Similar arrangements as made with the Pickle Crow Mine Officials were
made with the Lake St. Joseph Transportation Company, Limited, to provide
for our detachment at Uchi Lake. A building containing suitable living quarters,
including Police Office and cell facilities, was erected.
This building was erected during the summer and by agreement the Province
supplied the cells in a manner similar to that carried out at Pickle Lake.
The thanks of the Department are due the mining companies who co-
operated in supplying living and office facilities at the above detachments,
thereby enabling the members of the Force to give more efficient service at these
outlying and difficult posts.
CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION BRANCH ACTIVITIES
During the year officers of this Branch investigated nine murder cases, the
most of which were domestic, one for gain, the balance being as a result of drinking
bouts, with an element of domestic trouble added.
Firearms were the weapons used in nearly all these cases, a butcher-knife
was used in one. It cannot be said that any of the murder cases arose from
present war conditions, directly or indirectly.
The work of the staff of this Branch has been most satisfactory, and cases,
particularly those of a serious nature, have been investigated with a high degree
of efficiency, which resulted in conviction in a large majority of cases.
At the beginning of the >ear, Edward F. Wright, clerk in the office, was
appointed a Constable of the Force, attached to the Criminal Investigation
Branch, and since that time has been in charge of the photography and finger-
print section. His work has been accepted as evidence in many cases throughout
the Province, particularh- in that of photography. Constable Wright has also
assisted and co-operated with other Departments of the Provincial Government
in photographing various documents, in which Infra-Red photography system has
been used, with great success.
The Anti-Sabotage Squad has operated extensively over the Province,
particularly in those centres where industries are engaged in war work, and I
am pleased to report that serious cases of sabotage are at a minimum.
I have pleasure in reporting that during the \ear continued co-operation
has been had from the police departments of Canada and the LTnited States in
conducting investigations from this office, particularly the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police and the Toronto Police; also the police of both railway systems
and other municipal police within the Province.
On the 1st of June, Albert B. Boyd, Acting Chief Inspector, who had been
a member of the Force for over thirty years, and who had investigated with a
large measure of success man\- major crimes in his time, retired on superannuation.
Inspector Boyd had rendered faithful, conscientious and efficient service to the
Province.
On May 21st, Herbert S. McCready, formerly Sergeant of Detectives,
Toronto Police Department, with which service he had been for twenty-eight
years, was appointed Deputy Commissioner, Ontario Provincial Police.
1940 ONTARIO rRQVINCIAL POLICE 19
The Deputy Coniniissioiier was also appointed a Magistrate in and for the
Province of Ontario, on the 18th of September, 1940.
Also attached are particulars on the formation of the Civilian Defence
Committee (A.R.P.) scheme, organized throughout the Province.
CIVILIAN DEFENCE COMMITTEE (A.R.P.)
An Order-in-Council dated September 12th, 1940, reads as follows: —
"Whereas the Federal Government has provided for the appointment
of a Civilian Defence Committee (A.R.P.) by Section 33, Subsection 1, of
the Defence of Canada Regulations for the better protection of the people
of the Province of Ontario against hostile action;
"And Whereas the objects of the said Civilian Defence Committee
(A.R.P.) are as follows:
(a) To create in the Province of Ontario a volunteer civilian organization
to meet emergencies occasioned by war.
(b) To protect life and property in Ontario from every form of attack.
(c) To assist the civil powers by co-operating with all police and other
law enforcement agencies.
(d) To combat subversive activities.
(e) To assist in fighting fires resulting from sabotage or other acts of
war.
(/) To instruct the civilian population in emergency services.
(g) To co-operate with and assist all Federal and Provincial authorities
in the performance of duties relative to the objects of this organiza-
tion;
"And Whereas by letter dated the 12th day of September, 1940, the
Honourable the Prime Minister of Ontario has requested the Honourable
Ian Mackenzie, Minister of Pensions and National Health, to appoint the
Honourable Gordon D. Conant, Attorney-General for Ontario, as Provincial
Chairman of the said Civilian Defence Committee (A.R.P.) for the said
Province of Ontario, with power to add such persons as the Chairman may
determine, without remuneration, to make effective the said Committee in
Ontario.
"And W'hereas the Honourable Gordon D. Conant, as Provincial
Chairman of the Civilian Defence Committee (A.R.P.) for the Province of
Ontario, has appointed the following to the offices set opposite their respective
names —
Chairman — Honourable Gordon D. Conant, K.C.
Vice-Chairman — H. S. McCready, Deputy Commissioner, O.P.P.
Secretary —
Directors
1. Director of Police Services — H. S. McCready, Deputy Commissioner
of Ontario Provincial Police.
20 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE Xo. 34
2. Director of Fire Services — W. J. Scott, Fire Marshal.
3. Director of Medical Services — Dr. B. T. McGhie, Deputv Minister
of Health.
4. Director of Public Utility Services — R. A. McAllister, Deputy
Minister of Public Works.
5. Director of Transportation — R. M. Smith, Deput\- Minister of
Highways.
"The Prime Minister, therefore, recommends that the objects of the
Civilian Defence Committee (A.R.P.) of the Province of Ontario, and the
appointments as above set out, be approved b\- Your Honour.
"The Committee of Council concur in the recommendation of the
Honourable the Prime Minister, and advise that the same be acted on."
Following this, meetings were held to discuss the system to be adopted and
it was decided that the plan of organization should follow that established in
Great Britain with certain modifications to suit Canadian conditions and varying
needs.
After consultation with representatives of the Military Districts 1 and 2,
and the Federal A.R.P. Officer, fourteen vulnerable areas were established, and
the municipalities included in each area listed. Th,s list was later revised to
include a number of municipalities contiguous to those in the original list.
The Councils of these municipalities were furnished with copies of an
Organization and Instruction Manual prepared for the purpose of instructing
them how to proceed to form local committees.
On Tuesday, November 5th, 1940, the Provincial Committee co-operated
with the St. John Ambulance Association and the St. John Ambulance Brigade
at a very successful demonstration at the \'arsit>- Arena.
During the week of November 18th-23rd, 1940, a course of instruction in
Civilian Defence Organization and Air Raid Precautions was given to a group
consisting of members of the Provincial Police, Highways and Health Depart-
ments. From this group, fourteen regional officers from the Provincial Police
and Highwa\s Departments were appointed, one for each of the regional areas
designated. The duties of these officers are to act as a liaison between the
provincial and local committees, and to assist in the organization locally.
Consideration has also been directed to additional training which will be
given to the members of the various services under this Civilian Defence Com-
mittee scheme, viz.. Police, Fire, Medical. Public Utility and Transportation,
and it is proposed that additional handbooks will be printed for this purpose.
These will be printed in sufficient quantit\- to supply the officials and the in-
structors in the various services concerned.
The equipment and material which has been provided b\- the Federal
authorities has been allotted on a iwpulation basis to the various municipalities.
Up until December 31st. 1940. Civilian Defence Committee units were
organized in the following municipalities:
Niagara Falls, Chippawa, Owen Sound, Sarnia, Point Edward, St. Catharines,

SPECIAL BRANCH
At the outbreak of war, a "Special Branch" was created to combat sub-
versive activities and specialize in anti-sabotage and counter-espionage opera-
tions. Priniarih-, the personnel consisted of an Inspector in charge, a clerk-
stenographer and four special agents. The Branch has been augmented and now
includes an Inspector, two clerk-stenographers and ten special agents, under the
direct supervision of the Deputy Commissioner of Police.
Owing to the fact that this was a new Wing of the Criminal Investigation
Branch, certain difficulties were to be expected. The nature of the work demanded
that the activities of its members be cloaked in secrecy. Investigations since the
inauguration have touched upon the activities of some 20,000 persons.
During these investigations, innocent persons were sometimes reported to
be members of subversive and outlawed organizations. In order to spare un-
necessary embarrassment, all investigations are carried out in a very discreet
manner. One of the chief difficulties encountered in making investigations
concerning possible subversive acts has been the great reluctance of the majority
of persons reporting such cases to give evidence in court.
The Branch co-operates closely with the several other Police organizations
in Toronto and adjacent municipalities, also with the divisional headquarters
of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Federal Bureau of Investigation at
Washington, D.C., Detroit, Buffalo and Albany. In instances where flagrant
violations of the Defence of Canada Regulations have been followed by prosecu-
tion and conviction, recommendations have been made urging internment for
the violators, which have resulted in internment in a number of cases.
Whilst the danger of direct acts of sabotage to industrial plants engaged in
the production of essential war supplies, vital lines of communication, power
plants, etc., is ever present, an even more dangerous situation has developed
during the past few years. Reference is made here, of course, to the foreign "ism"
advocates who, protected by guarantees of freedom of speech, assembly and the
press under our democratic system, seek to overthrow that system. By means of
"boring from within" tactics they have succeeded in working their way into
various legitimate organizations and endeavour to control the policies of such
organizations.
The following associations, societies, organizations, etc., have been declared
to be illegal since the outbreak of war, viz.: —
The Auslands Organization of the National Sozialistische
Deutsche Arbeiterpartei ;
The Deutsche Arbeitsfront ;
The Canadian Society for German Culture (Deutscher Bund
Fur Kanada) ;
The National Unity Party ;
The Canadian Union of Fascists;
The Communist Partv of Canada;
22 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
The Young Communist League of Canada;
The Canadian Labour Defence League;
The League for Peace and Democracy;
The Ukrainian Labour Farmer Temple Association;
The Finnish Organization of Canada;
The Russian Workers and Farmers Club;
The Croatian Cultural Association;
The Hungarian Workers Club;
The Polish People's Association ;
The Canadian Ukrainian Youth Federation;
Italian Fascio Abroad (Fasci Italiani AU'Estero) ;
O.V.R.A. Opere X'^olontarie Repressione, Anti-Fascisto (National
Organization for the Repression of Anti-Fascism);
Dopolavoro (After Work Organization) ;
Associazione Combattenti Italiani (Italian War \'eterans'
Association) ;
O.G.I.E. Organizzazioni Giovanili Degli Italiant AU'Estero
(Italian Youth Organization Abroad) ;
The Italian United Moral Front;
Technocracy Inc. ;
Jehovah's Witnesses;
The Workers and Farmers Publishing Association ;
The Road Publishing Company;
The Crotian Publishing Company;
The Polish People's Press;
The Serbian Publishing Association;
The Finnish Societ\' of Toronto.
The spreading of Nazi jjropaganda is still carried on b\' word of mouth, by
hailing an\- German success, spreading defeatist propaganda, etc.
Fascist organizations have ceased to exist as organizational subverters,
although occasional meetings of former members of such organizations are
still held.
The National Unity Part\- has more or less ceased to be an active factor in
spreading sub\ersive propaganda, due to the fact that its leaders have almost
all been interned.
The Jehovah's Witnesses sect, more recently banned, is still quite active,
but rigid enforcement of the regulations is having the desired effect. Huge
quantities of literature ha\e been seized and confiscated.
One of the chief "ism" organizations is the Communist Party of Canada,
which following the notable case in Ottawa when Harr\- and Louis
BINDER and Arthur Rov SAUNDERS were convicted of distributing sub-
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 23
versive literature, was declared an illej^al orj^anization. Its leaders are all either
interned or in hiding. Although outlawed, the Communist Party still has a large
and active underground menijjershiii who are attempting to foment labour trouble
in industries engaged in the production of war supplies.
Efforts have been made to enhance the protective facilities of manufacturing
plants engaged in the production of war materials to make them impervious to
attack from without or within. Known agitators are kept under surveillance
as much as possible in order to guard against the fomentation of industrial unrest
or any attempts to weaken the morale of workers employed in our war industries.
The Communist Party has also attempted in recent months to rouse a spirit
of resentment amongst the youth of the country who are called up for their period
of military training. Literature has been distributed in the military training
camps, colleges and schools, calling on the youth to organize and fight the present
system of Government.
Careful examination has been made of a large number of periodical foreign
language publications, as well as those published in the English language, for
subsersive material. Since the outbreak of w'ar a number of publications have
been declared illegal and banned. Some of the most important of these publi-
cations were, viz. : —
The Clarion Norodna Gazeta
Glos Pracy Pravda
Kanadsky Gudok The Road (Der Vag)
Jiskra Slobodna Misao
An extensive card index file is maintained which contains the names of all
persons suspected of possible subversive activities, members of outlawed organiza-
tions, and all persons convicted under the Defence of Canada Regulations or the
National Registration Regulations.
WAR EMERGENCY MEASURES
Commencing in April, 1939, a survey was made by members of this Force
in collaboration with officials of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission for the
purpose of preparing a plan by which adequate protection for vulnerable Hydro-
Electric plants and other vital industries Avould be provided to prevent sabotage
or destruction in the event of war.
When it because apparent that w ar was imminent the plan was put into effect,
and on August 28th, 1939, the first guards were appointed.
By arrangement with the National Veterans' Security Committee a number
of ex-service men were selected and sworn as Special Constables, prepared for
dut>' when and where required.
The policy adopted was for the headquarters of the Veterans' Committee,
Toronto, to communicate with their various representatives throughout the
Province to provide the men required; they would then be selected, examined and
appointed locally.
This policy worked very satisfactory and there was no complaint of men being
sent to other districts from Toronto.
24 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
As the plan developed a committee was formed to direct and advise, con-
sisting of members of the Attorney-General's Department, Hydro officials,
\^eterans' Security Committee and members of this Force.
An agreement was drafted containing the conditions of service which each
man employed was required to sign in addition to taking the Oath of Allegiance
and Office of Special Constable for the Province of Ontario.
A standard of height and age was set, and all applicants medically examined
by officers of the Department of Health. Insurance and accident coverage was
arranged, and members of the Regular Force were made responsible for the train-
ing and supervision of the men.
This protective Force was designated as the "X'eterans" Guard," Ontario
Provincial Police, issued with uniforms and armed with 12-gauge "Riot" Type
repeating shotguns.
When the guards were posted particular attention was paid to the Niagara
Falls area including the Queenston Plant, where barbed wire fences, barricades
and other entanglements were erected, in addition to floodlights, sentry boxes
and telephone connections.
A standard barbed wire barricade and fence was developed and approved,
and photographs and blue prints were supplied to such plants as wished to enclose
their premises with protective devices of this type.
After the guarding had been in eff^ect some weeks, a tour of inspections of
areas guarded was made and it was found that in many cases the personnel could
be decreased which was done wherever recommended by the Attorney-General
or Hydro Officials.
District Inspectors were given complete control of all guards in their respec-
tive Districts with authority to engage or dismiss as the occasion warranted.
Appointments were made on a monthly basis terminable at any time on a week's
notice, a guard, however, being instantly dismissed for cause such as misconduct,
neglect of duty, absent without leave, etc.
The R.C.M.P. assumed the responsibility for guarding the Niagara Falls
area in November, 1939, but these arrangements proved unsatisfactory and the
Ontario Provincial Police again took over the guarding on November 20th, 1939.
As a result of repeated representation made by the Government of Ontario
regarding the imperative need for a military guard in the Niagara area, the
Department of National Defence eventually became responsible for this pro-
tection.
The transfer of responsibility to the Department of National Defence
commenced June 1st and was completed by August 9th, 1940, thereby releasing
a number of guards whose services were dispensed with as the work was taken
over.
When guarding was first undertaken, the following properties of the Hydro
Power Commission were protected: —

The greatest Strength of the "Veterans' Guard" at any one time was seven
hundred and thirty-seven (737) at the end of November, 1939.
As other protective measures were adopted such as the erection of barricades,
flood Hghts, etc., it became possible to reduce the number of guards. This was
done gradually until by the end of April, 1940, the strength was reduced to
three hundred and fifty-seven (357).
After the Department of National Defence assumed the guarding of the
Niagara area, further considerable reductions were made and at present the
"Veteran Guard" numbers only one hundred and twenty-four (124), distributed

26 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
Provincial Special Constables on Reserve:
ShortK- after war was declared a portion of the Reserve Force of Constables
which had been in existence since April, 1937, was called up.
A Training School in charge of Headquarters Officers was opened at 86
Queen's Park Crescent.
The school was full\- equipped and a mobile squad under a Sergeant was
continuously training and available for emergency duty at all times. This
school was discontinued at the end of February, 1940, and the men in training
distributed among the Districts throughout the Province.
A number of additional Special Constables were added to the Reserve from
time to time to take care of the many extra duties thrust upon the Department
by reason of war measures and defence preparedness.
Formation of the Volunteer Civil Guard — an Auxiliary to the
Ontario Provincial Police:
The \'olunteer Civil Guard was organized in June, 1940, when a memorandum
was sent to all municipalities to the effect that the Province of Ontario acting
through the Ontario Provincial Police, under the direction of the Attorney-
General, was prepared to advise and co-operate with any municipality in the
Province desirous of organizing a \''olunteer Civil Guard.
This memorandum was the result of many requests made to the Attorney-
General by heads of municipalities for guidance in the formation of civil guards.
The number of these groups and the requests for Provincial co-operation
increased rapidly.
It was soon realized that these guards were of great moral value and impor-
tance in combating subversive and disloyal activities and in the maintenance
of law and order, should an emergency arise requiring their services.
At the end of December, 1940, there have been organized 200 civil guard
units, with a membership of over 40,000. Many of the officers of these units,
at considerable personal sacrifice, have devoted their time, money and talents
to the organization and training of their respective units.
While we have not, so far, suffered from any serious sabotage activities,
it is believed that the civil guards have had a very salutar\- effect upon disloyal
elements. With the existence and strength of such organization visibly demon-
strated in practically every important centre in Ontario, they have made the
public conscious of the fact that the citizens are ready, willing and even anxious
to deal with any attempted hostile action.
During the past seven months inspections of civil guard units have been
carried out by the Attorney-General and Senior Officers of the Ontario Provincial
Police in every part of the Province. At these inspections, a blue arm band,
lettered in red with the words "Volunteer Civil Guard", and supplied b\- the
Province, was presented to each and every member of the Guard.
At some of the inspections the rank and file turned out in uniforms purchased
by themselves and in many instances the units provided their own bands.
Every unit of the Guard has a Commander, assisted by other officers known
as Company Commanders. The Commanding Officer of each unit has been
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 27
sworn in as an honourary member of the Reserve Force of the Ontario Provincial
Police.
A syllabus of training has been prepared and distributed to all units, which
syllabus covers the objects of the ortjanization, the legal authority, control,
equipment, discipline and the various subjects suggested for instruction and
training.
The syllabus explains in detail the powers of arrest by pri\'ate citizens and
the additional powers of arrest by a constable, also what amount of force might
be used in making arrests, and a copy has been sent to every Commanding
Officer of a unit.
THE ONTARIO VOLUNTEER CONSTABULARY
There has been established, as an auxiliary to the Ontario Pro\incial Police,
a voluntary organization known as the "Ontario Volunteer Constabulary".
This organization comprises suitable persons who desire to render service to
the Province without pay and who purchase their own uniform and equipment.
The uniform to be worn by the members of the Constabulary with the neces-
sary insignia and rank badges has been officially approved and adopted, and its
officers are armed with service revolvers.
The propose and authorized strength of the Constabulary shall not be over
one thousand.
Its objects are to provide a highly trained and disciplined body of men
available for the maintenance of law and order, and preservation of internal
security, and generally assist the Ontario Provincial Police or other law enforce-
m.ent bodies if and when they are called upon to do so.
In addition to general extensive police training, this volunteer organization
has perfected a Mobile Column for service under the Civilian Defence Committee
(A.R.P.) scheme, and is prepared to assist municipal authorities under this scheme
in the event of emergencies arising.
REPORT RE FORMATION OF ONTARIO VOLUNTEER CONSTABULARY
Sir:
In accordance with your instructions, I beg to present a brief resume of the progress
made in organizing the Ontario V'olunteer Constabulary'. The encouragement our Organiza-
tion has received has been most heartening, and I am confident that we shall reach our
proposed strength of one thousand men early in the Summer.
Since the founding of the Ontario Volunteer Constabulary in September, 1940, two
hundred and forty-nine recruits have been accepted and placed on strength. An additional
fifty men are in the process of enlistment into the various Units throughout the Province.
As stipulated by the Commissioner of Police for Ontario, Ontario \"olunteer Constabu-
lary Districts shall be organized to coincide with the twelve established Police Districts of
the Ontario Provincial Police. To date, five Districts have been organized and District
Headquarters established.
Provincial Headquarters have been established at Toronto and office space supplied to
accommodate Orderly Room, Records' Office and Quartermaster's Department.
No. 5 District (Toronto) — Total sworn in strength to date, one hundred and fourteen
men. Drill Quarters, Lecture Hall and Orderly Room located in the Parliament Buildings.
This Unit is undergoing training in Foot Drill, Musketry Drill, Range Practice and St. John
Ambulance Course. A Mobile Column has been organized, and efficiency in the work is
rapidly being achieved. .Several other centres are in the process of organization within this
District.
28 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
No. 3 District (Hamilton) — Present strength thirty-nine men all ranks. Orderly Room
for this District is located in the Harbour Master's Building. Lecture Hall has been
secured, and permanent Drill Quarters are being arranged for. A section of the Mobile
Column has been established, and in addition to this work, the Unit is undergoing training
in Foot Drill, Musketry, Range Practice, St. John Ambulance and Signalling Courses.
No. 10 District (Haileybury, Timmins) — District Headquarters for Northern Ontario
have been established at Timmins. The Timmins' Company has a present strength of
fifty-three all ranks. Units are in process of organization at Sudbury, North Bay and
Cochrane. The Timmins' I'nit have been training extensively in Foot Drill, Musketry,
Range Practice, St. John Ambulance Courses, and are, at the present time, receiving a
course of lectures on Riot Control. A nimiber of additional applicants will be sworn in
within the next few weeks in this District.
No. 8 District (Belleville) — The present strength, twenty-four all ranks with applica-
tions being received regularly. Orderly Room, Drill Quarters and Lecture Hall are located
in the Belleville Collegiate. A branch of the Mobile Column has been established in Belle-
ville, regular training in this branch being carried out. In addition this Unit is undergoing
training in Foot Drill, Range Practice and St. John Ambulance Courses.
No. 6 District (Kitchener) — Present strength, seventeen all ranks with additional
applications being considered. This is a new Unit and have received little training.
In addition to the foregoing, Units are in the process of organization in London, Niagara
Falls and Windsor. This should be within the next six weeks, at which time a complete
report will be forwarded to your Office.
May I, at this time, tender the thanks of the entire Corps to the Officers of the Provincial
Police for their untiring eflforts in assisting us in our organization and instruction.
I have the honour to be Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Sgd.) A. Q. C. O'BRIEN,
Superintendent.
MILITARY AID TO CIVIL POWERS
In view of the possibility that it may be necessary to invoke the assistance
of the Militia to aid the civil powers in the present emergency, an Order-in-Council
was passed by His Excellency the Governor-General in Council on the 7th day
of August, 1940, whereby certain Provincial ofificials may be designated by the
Attorney-General to requisition for such aid, as set forth in the following
memorandum :
MEMORANDUM RE REQUISITIONING THE SER\ ICES OF THE
ACTIVE MILITIA IN AID OF THE CI\IL POWER
1. By an Order of His Excellency the Governor-General in Council, passed on the 7th
day of August, 1940, provision is made for requisitioning the active Militia in aid of the Civil
Power b\- certain Provincial officials who may be designated by the Attorney-General,
and for Senior Police officials functioning in place of Magistrates upon the arrival of the
Militia in the locality where required.
2. Pursuant to the said Order the Attorney-General for Ontario has authorized certain
Provincial officials to exercise the power of requisitioning the Militia.
3. In no case should the Militia be requisitioned unless circumstances and conditions
are exceptional and emergent. Before requisitioning the Militia an official should make
careful and exhaustive enquiry and should be satisfied that such action is necessary to protect
life and property and that all available police and civil organizations are unable to meet or
control the situation. The calling of the Militia is an extraordinary measure which should
only be considered in grave emergencies as it involves an impairment of civil jurisdiction
and max entail considerable expense to the Province.
4. All officials authorized to requisition the Militia, other than Headquarters officials,
will have regard at all times for the following:^ —
(a) Where circumstances and time permit they should communicate with (telephone
or telegraph) and obtain the approval of the Attorney-General, the Deputy
Attorne\-General, the Conmiissioner, the Deputy Commissioner, or the Senior
Staff Inspector, in th.it order of availabilit\".
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 29
(b) Crown Attorneys should communicate with and obtain the approval of the nearest
District Inspector or other officer in charjje of the nearest District Headquarters,
Ont.irio IVoviiicial Police, if circumstances and tinu- clo not permit of contact with
and approval from lleadquarters as per parajjraph (a).
(c) District Inspectors should communicate with and get the approval of the Crown
Attorney of the County or District in which the Militia is required, if circumstances
and time do not permit of contact with and approval from Headquarters as per
piiragraph (a).
5. Any official ref|uisitioninji the Militia must report full\' and iinint-diately to the
Attorney-General.
6. If the locality where the Militia is reciiiired is a City or Town with a population
of not less than 10,000 so that there ma\ he present more than one senior police officer as
defined by -Section 5 of the Order, and if the Attorney-General has not desijjjnated and is not
available to desij;nate a senior police officer to function. Provincial Police officers should
comnuMiicatc with and obtain instructions from the Commissioner, the Deputy Commissioner
or Chief of Staff of the Ontario Provincial Police or the Deputy Attorne\-General or a senior
Officer at Ontario Provincial Police Headquarters and be governed accordingly.
(Sgd.) G. D. CONAXT.
Toronto, August 23rd, 1940. Attorney-General for Ontario.
In addition to the Honourable the Attorney-General and the Deputy
Attorney-General, the following officials are designated to requisition such
services: All Crown Attorneys in the Province of Ontario, the Commissioner,
the Deputy-Commissioner, the Senior Staff Inspector and all District Inspectors
of the Ontario Provincial Police.
REGISTRATION OF FIREARMS AND PERMITS FOR
OFFENSIVE WEAPONS
Under the provisions of the Criminal Code, before any person can sell, buy,
give or lend any revolver, pistol or other concealable weapon, they must first
obtain a permit to do so. The Criminal Code also makes it an offence for anyone
to carry, either on the person (outside of their own premises) or in a vehicle under
their control, or in which they are a passenger, a revolver or pistol or other
concealed firearm.
Since the amendment to the Criminal Code in this connection, effective
July 15th, 1933, all such permits in Ontario are issued from my office, and a
separate branch under a Staff Inspector is maintained at General Headquarters
to take care of this work.
During the calendar year 1940, 993 new individual permits to carry revolvers
or pistols were issued in addition to many hundreds which were renewed. All
such permits are only valid for the calendar year in which issued. Many permits
issued are to members of regularly organized and approved shooting clubs in
order that they ma}' carry their weapons to and from the ranges of their respective
clubs. Many more are issued to bank employees for the protection of bank funds.
One thousand three hundred and eighty-two individual permits for the
transfer of revolvers and pistols and twenty Vender's Permits to recognized
dealers were issued during the year.
Permits referred to above are not issued automatically upon application but
only after investigation, and in accordance with the provisions of the Code,
in which the reasons for such permits are definitely outlined.
30 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
Under the provisions of the Code any person who is not a British Subject
cannot possess firearms of any description or ammunition therefor, without a
permit, and between January 1st, 1940, and June 15th, 1940, ninety-three such
permits were issued.
Under an amendment to the Defence of Canada Regulations in June, 1940,
this section of the Code was superseded by a provision prohibiting the possession
of firearms, ammunition and explosives by aliens and requiring that any such
persons having firearms, ammunition or explosives in their possession were
required to deliver them up to the nearest police officer or justice of the peace.
The Commissioner, Royal Canadian Mounted Police could, however, in his
discretion, issue permits to resident or non-resident aliens to possess firearms,
etc.
Under an amendment to the Criminal Code, effective January 1st, 1935,
all revolvers and pistols in the possession of any person in Canada were required
to he registered and later an amendment required re-registration between March
1st and July 1st, 1939, and every five years thereafter. Where change of ownership
of any such weapon occurs, immediate re-registration must be made by the new
owner. While registration may be made with the Chief Constable of any city,
town or village in Ontario, all blank registration certificates are distributed from
this General Headquarters and general supervision is maintained from here.
This registration of revolvers and pistols and the issuing of permits for the
transfer, carrying, etc., of such weapons has been of considerable advantage
to this Force, and through us to other police forces, in the tracing and recovering
of stolen weapons, also in the solution of crimes in which a stolen weapon figured.
On July 29th, 1940, an amendment was made to the Defence of Canada Regu-
lations which required that all persons having rifles and shotguns in their posses-
sion in Canada must register them before September 15th, 1940. It was found
physically impossible to complete registration by this date and it was subse-
quently extended to September 30th, 1940. In Ontario the Registration was
authorized to be performed by the following persons:
1. The Chief Constable, the Chief of Police, or head or acting head of the
Police Force of every City or Town in Ontario.
2. The Clerk of every township and village in Ontario (except the villages
and townships hereinafter named).
3. The High County Constables of the Counties of York and Lanark.
4. The Chief Constables of the Townships of York, East York, North York,
I^tobicoke, Scarborough, Teck and Tisdale.
5. The Chief Constables of the Village of Forest Hill, Long Branch, Swansea,
Humberstone, Delhi and Fergus.
6. All members of the Regular Force of the Ontario Provincial Police
stationed at any detachment in any of the following areas: The unor-
ganized districts of Muskoka, Parry Sound, Temiskaming, Cochrane,
Nipissing, Algoma, Sudbury, Manitoulin Island, Kenora, Rainy River,
Thunder Bay, Patricia, and the Counties of Haliburton and Renfrew.
Blank books of registration certificates were forwarded by the Commissioner,
R.C.M.P., Ottawa, to this office, and were distributed by the Staff Inspector
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 31
in charge of the issuing of weapon permits who was also authorized to supervise
and advise the various registering officers.
In this connection about 8,000 books of registration certificates (each book
containing 50 triplicate certificates) were distributed, in all about 400,000
certificates.
The registration certificates are printed in triplicate, the original is given to
the person registering the weapon, the duplicate is retained by the registering
officer and the triplicate sent to the Commissioner, R.C.M.P., Ottawa. It is
not known here just how many rifles and shotguns were registered in Ontario as
complete records are kept at Ottawa.
The registering of these weapons was done by the various officials mentioned
above on an entirely voluntary basis and they did an excellent piece of work and
are to be commended for the part they played in this necessary war effort.
Further, in connection with rifles and shotguns, the Defence of Canada
Regulations as amended July 29th, 1940, also required that before purchase,
sale or transfer of possession of such weapons be made, a Permit must be obtained.
This work was done by the District Inspectors and members of this Force in
unorganized Districts and the Chief Constables in the larger cities and metro-
politan townships. The forms of Permit were supplied by the Ontario Govern-
ment and were distributed from this office. We have already distributed 30,000
indi\idual permits and several thousand vender's (merchant) permits.
EXPLOSIVES
On July 4th, 1940, an Order-in-Council was passed under the provisions of
the Explosives Act, restricting the sale and possession of explosives and a permit
is now required to buy or possess explosives. This does not include ammunition.
Prior to this, hardware stores could sell explosives without permit, but now they
cannot keep explosives at all unless they have a magazine license.
Permits to buy and keep explosives may now be issued by any member of
the R.C.IVI.P. or Provincial Police, an Inspector of Mines of a Province or the
Chief of Police of a municipality wherein the explosive is to be used. This
again increases our work both in the issuing of permits and the checking, etc.,
of the proper guarding of such explosives.
The amount of work involved at this General Headquarters in the issuing of
permits, supervision and correspondence in connection with firearms and explo-
sives is very heavy' and fully occupies the time of one of my Staff Inspectors
and an assisting staff. To give some idea of this there were 8,488 letters written
from here in connection with this work during the year, an increase of 2,400 over
1939.
INDUSTRIAL UNREST
Automobile Industry — Windsor:
Owing to reports received that strike trouble was imminent at the Chrysler
Plant, Windsor, one Sergeant and twenty additional Provincial Constables
were attached to Windsor District Headquarters. October 26th to 31st, when
they returned to their respective stations.
32 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
On November 8th, thirty Provincial Constables and one Sergeant were again
dispatched to Windsor District Headquarters owing to threatened trouble from
the same source.
On November 13th, forty-six members of the C.I.O.-U.A.W. were arrested
by members of this Force and the Windsor City Police under the Defence of
Canada Regulations, to wit:
"Loitering in the vicinity of an Essential Industry."
All forty-six were convicted before the magistrate, the conviction being
upheld by the Court of Appeal.
Members of the Force doing special duty were returned to their posts by
December 4th.
Transport Workers Strike:
On November 11th, 1940, a walkout took place affecting a section of the truck
drivers and freight handlers of the Direct Winters and Martin Transport Com-
panies, with headquarters at Toronto, involving approximately seventy-five to
one hundred employees of the two companies.
Owing to threats being made to sabotage the trucks and contents whilst
en route to their destinations, the companies concerned applied to this depart-
ment and the City of Toronto Police Department for protection.
A convoy system was put into effect whereby a number of trucks proceeding
in the same direction would form a convoy w'ith a motorcycle patrol escort.
This system worked very satisfactorily and with few exceptions there was no
interference.
A number of incidents were reported where strike pickets in automobiles
endeavoured to force the transport drivers into the ditch.
Four men were arrested and convicted at St. Catharines for intimidation
and offences under The Highway Traffic Act for trying to force a truck into the
ditch which had a restraining effect and the strike died out soon after.
The Canadian Seamen s Union Strike:
Early in April a strike largely engineered by "Pat" Sullivan, President, was
called by the Canadian Seamen's Union.
This strike was an attempt to tie up all shipping from Port Arthur, Ontario,
to Halifax, N.S., affecting 6,500 seamen and 285 vessels.
Owing to threats of violence and importation of strong arm squads from other
Provinces to prevent crews from operating vessels, a number of requests were
received from heads of municipalities for assistance from the Force.
In compliance with such requests and with the approval of the Attorney-
General, members of this Force were sent to the aid of the municipalities concerned
as hereunder —
Prescott Grain Elevators:
On April 13th, 1940, one Staff Inspector, one Inspector, C.I.B., one Sergeant
and twenty-five Provincial Constables were sent to Prescott owing to information
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 35
received that violence would break out on the vessels tied up at that point from
"stronii arm" crews coming in from Montreal.
There was no disorder at this point and the men returned to their posts on
the 15th instant.
On April 20th, at the request of the Reeve of Edwardsburg Township, one
Sergeant and eight Provincial Constables were again sent to Prescott on special
duty to prevent threatened violence regarding movement of vessels.
Point Edward, Ontario:
On April 18th, 1940, at the request of the Reeve of Point Edward, Ontario,
one District Inspector, one Sergeant, and twenty Provincial Constables were sent
for special duty to assist the Municipal Police in dealing with the strike of the
members of the Canadian Seamen's Union.
During the evening of this date there was a sharp clash between the strikers
and Police when the pickets attempted to prevent crews from reaching the docks.
Some injuries were received and a ship's Captain attempting to reach his
vessel received a cut face. As a result two men were arrested and charged with
assault and resisting the Police. Both were convicted and sentenced to thirty
days' imprisonment and there was no further serious trouble.
On April 20th, at the request of the Reeve, the men were returned to their
respective Districts.
Port Colborne, Ontario:
On April 18th, 1940, at the request of the Mayor of Port Colborne, one
Sergeant and eight Provincial Constables were sent to Port Colborne to aid the
Municipal Police in maintaining law and order in the event of violent outbreaks
due to the strike.
At the request of the Mayor, on April 21st the men were returned to their
posts.
Goderich, Ontario:
On April 20th, 1940, at the request of the Mayor of Goderich, one Sergeant
and six Provincial Constables were sent to Goderich to assist the Municipal
Police to maintain order in the event of violence due to the strike.
The men were withdrawn on request of the Mayor the following day.
Midland, Ontario:
On April 20th, 1940, at the request of the Mayor of Midland, one Sergeant
and six Provincial Constables were sent to Midland to assist the Municipal
Police to maintain law and order in the event of violence arising by reason of
the strike.
The men were withdrawn the following day at the request of the Mayor.
Port Arthur and Fort William, Ontario:
Approximately four hundred members of the Union, affecting fifteen vessels
and docks, went on strike at the head of the Lakes.
34 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
The services of the members of this Force were available to assist the Muni-
cipal Forces, but fortunately there was no disorder and our services were not
required.
This strike, which was declared illegal by the Department of Labour,
Ottawa, was no doubt called in an attempt to tie up all war supplies being shipped
by inland waters, and could have had disastrous effects if it had not been dealt
with firmly.
MURDERS
Provincial Constable D. C. Shervill, Wentworth County.
The above named officer was attached to Hamilton District and on the night
of February 8th, 1938, was making a patrol of Orchard Beach, six miles east of
the City when he was shot by some unknown person.
The officer lived some seven days following his injuries and gave the following
account of the occurrence.
That he had driven to the beach alone shortly before midnight on the night
in question, had parked his car with the lights turned off and proceeded on foot
down a lane which led to the cottages.
He was passing one of the cottages when he bumped into a man, and on
challenging this man, Shervill was shot in the abdomen.
The assailant made his escape and Shervill was able to walk to his car, drive
a half-mile to the highway where he gave the alarm.
An intensive investigation followed and a number of suspects were rounded
up with no result until October, 1939, when an inmate of the penitentiary at
Kingston, named George Henry King, confessed to the shooting and is now
awaiting trial on a charge of murder,
Arnold and Nancy Welhnan, Rawdon Township, Hastings County.
The above named couple, both over seventy years of age, were found shot
to death on their farm on the morning of February 1st, 1940.
The couple lived alone and it was apparent that the shooting of Arnold
Wellman took place as he was about to milk a cow in his barn.
Mrs. Wellman was shot as she lay in her bed, a shotgun being the weapon
used.
After eliminating considerable possible factors, our attention concentrated
upon a neighbour, Fred Thain, and he was eventually arrested and charged with
the double murder.
He was found guilty at the Belleville Assizes in the month of October, 1940,
and sentenced to hang on January 14th, 1941.
Ambrose Carter, Prospect Hill, Perth County.
At 11.00 p.m., February 29ih, 1940, as Ambrose Carter, farmer, alighted
from his automobile at his home at Prospect Hill, Blanchard Township, County
of Perth, he Avas shot and killed by a discharge from a shotgun.
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 35
From investigation it was found that James Crawford, Prospect Hill Store-
keeper, had lain in wait for Carter to return home and had discharged both
barrels of a shotgun, point blank, at Carter as he got out of his automobile.
After the shooting Crawford walked home to his store where he was later
arrested and charged with murder.
Jealousy of Carter's attention to Crawford's wife was the alleged cause of
the shooting.
At the trial held before Mr. Justice Makins at Stratford, Crawford was
found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to fifteen years in Kingston Peni-
tentiary.
]\'m. Hayes, Farmer, Clark Township, Durham County.
On March 19th, 1940, William Hayes, farmer, of Clark Township, died
from injuries inflicted by Harold Eddy, a farmhand.
Enquiries showed that Eddy (who had previously been an inmate of the
Ontario Hospital) had apparently a return of insanity whilst with Hayes and had
attacked him with a chair and iron saucepan causing a badly fractured skull.
A charge of murder was prepared against Eddy but he never came to trial
having been certified insane and committed to the Ontario Hospital at Whitby.
John and Annie Milroy, Farmers, North Dumfries Township, Waterloo County.
On April 25th, 1940, Reginal White of Hespeler, Waterloo Township, was
hanged at Kitchener, for the brutal murder of John and Annie Milroy, aged
farmers of North Dumfries Township, on August 28th, 1939, as per sentence
pronounced by His Honour Judge J. A. Makins on February 7th, 1940.
William Hunt, Mrs. Elsie Hunt, Mrs. Charlotte Warren, John JIunt and June
Hunt, Scottsville, Middlesex County.
On May 17th, 1940, William Hunt, farmer of Scottsville, Middlesex County,
shot and killed his wife Elsie, his mother-in-law, Mrs. Charlotte Warren, his son
John, and his daughter June, and then committed suicide by shooting himself
through the head with the same weapon, a .44 calibre rifle, at their home near
Scottsville.
Enquiries showed that Hunt was very much distressed over the loss of some
cattle by death, also that he was in considerable financial difficulty.
James Kilpatrick, near Exeter, Huron County.
On June 21st, 1940, James Kilpatrick of near Exeter in Huron County was
killed at the home of Samuel Dodge, an Indian living at Exeter. It would seem
that both men had been drinking excessively and had quarrelled, resulting in the
death of Kilpatrick.
Dodge was arrested on a charge of murder and was committed for trial on
September 12th, 1940. He appeared before Mr. Justice Urquhart at the Fall
Assizes for the County of Huron on November 7th, 1940. On evidence submitted,
Dodge was found not guilty of murder and was acquitted.
36 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
Clement For tier, M click Township, District of Kenora.
On July 9th, 1940, Lucien Portier of Melick Township, District of Kenora,
shot and killed his brother Clement Portier at their home in the above-named
Township.
Enquiries showed that Lucien and John Portier had quarrelled over a girl
and that Lucien had fired three shots from a Winchester rifle at John but did not
hit him.
One bullet, however, entered the back of Clement, another brother, causing
instant death.
Lucien Portier was arrested and charged with murder.
At his trial before Mr. Justice Kelly, he was convicted of manslaughter and
sentenced to twenty years in the penitentiary.
Ethel Matthew, Erindale Po^td, Peel County.
On the morning of July 11th, 1940, the remains of the above-named woman
were found in the pond at Erindale.
Ethel Matthew, age 24 years, had lived with her husband, Gordon Ross
Matthew, age 21 years, on Keele Street, Toronto.
She had been missing from her home since 8.00 p.m. on the 10th of July
and her husband, who had worked until about 7.00 p.m. on that date, did not
return home until some seven hours later and reported to the police at 4.00 a.m.
on the morning of July 11th that his wife was missing.
The husband, who had at first denied seeing his wife on the night in question,
finally admitted that he had met her and taken her for a drive and that she had
fallen from the car. Being in a panic and afraid that he would be accused of
causing his wife bodily injuries, the husband placed the body of his wife in the
pond. The medical evidence revealed, however, that the woman's injuries could
not have been caused in the manner described by the husband, and he was charged
with murder, convicted at the Peel Assizes in November and was sentenced to
hang on January 23rd, 1941.
Artlmr Phillips, Perth Machine Gun Regiment, Welland County.
At approximately 1.00 a.m., July 14th, 1940, the above named was shot and
killed by one William Moulton of the same Regiment. Shooting took place at
Queen Victoria Park Military Camp, Niagara Falls, Ontario. Arthur Phillips,
age 24 years, a private in the Perth Machine Gun Regiment, died on July 14th,
1940, in the hospital, Niagara Falls, Ontario. The weapon used was an army
rifle.
William Moulton was charged with murder and was tried and convicted
on September 12th, 1940, and sentenced to hang on November 15th, 1940. On
November 14th, 1940, the sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in Kings-
ton Penitentiary.
Fred House, Indian, Six Nations Rcsenr, Brant County.
On September 20th, 1940, the dead body of Fred House, an Indian of the
Six Nations Reserve, was found in a lane on the Reserve at the rear of a house
occupied by Leonard Buck, a fellow Indian.
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 37
An investigation was carried out by members of the Brantford Detachment
of this Force and the Royal Canadian Mounted Pohce Detachment on the Six
Nations Reserve.
Evidence was obtained that Fred House and Leonard Buck had quarrelled
on the previous night and that Buck had been heard to say that he was going to
kill House.
House had died from a fractured skull, supposedly caused by an automobile
crank used by Buck.
Buck was arrested, charged with the murder of House, and on October 5th'
1940, committed for trial by the Magistrate.
Jerry Blackbird, Squirrel Island, Lambton County.
On August 17th, 1940, Jerry Blackbird, Indian, was killed by being struck
with an axe in a shack on Squirrel Island in the St. Clair River.
Enquiries made by the members of the Sarnia Detachment were to the effect
that Blackbird and a fellow Indian, named Stephen Kiyoshk, had indulged in a
drinking bout after returning from the L'nited States and that Kiyoshk had killed
Blackbird with an axe.
After the killing Kiyoshk shackled the body of Blackbird to the stern of a
rowboat tied to a dock where the Police found it.
Kiyoshk was arrested and charged with murder. His trial took place before
Mr. Justice Roach on September 12th to 19th, 1940, at the Assizes Court, Sarnia,
when he was found guilty and sentenced to hang November 26th, 1940.
He was granted a stay of execution by the Honourable Mr. Justice Kelly
until January 3rd. 1941.
Kiyoshk was a bad Indian who had been previously convicted of murder
and sentenced to hang, but the sentence was reversed on being granted a new trial.
ATTEMPTED MURDER
Velma Tanner, Richmond Township, Lennox and Addington Counties.
On April 24th, 1940, Eldon Perkins, Richmond Township, attempted to
murder Velma Tanner, age 19 years, at her home in Richmond Township.
Perkins visited Miss Tanner on the evening of the above date, taking with
him a .22 calibre rifle. During the evening a dispute arose and Perkins shot Miss
Tanner through the breast, the bullet penetrating the lung and coming out by
the left shoulder blade.
After the shooting Perkins went to the home of James C. Clarke where he
went to bed and during the night shot himself through the head causing instant
death.
38 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. U
ROBBERIES AND CRIMES OF VIOLENCE
Robbery — Bank of Toronto, Cardinal, Grenville County.
On November 30th, 1939, the branch of the Bank of Toronto at Cardinal
was held up and robbed of $2,225.00 by two armed men who ordered the Bank
Staff and four customers into the vault. When the robbers found they could not
fasten the vault, they bound the hands and feet of all seven people and dragged
them into the vault, and after obtaining all available cash, escajjed in an auto-
mobile.
The two robbers were of Jewish or German appearance, and apparently
made a clean getaway, but suspicion centered on one Harry Muller, a German,
who had resided at Cardinal several years before.
Muller was arrested in Toronto on December 11th, 1939, under the name of
Harry Miller, on a charge under the Defence of Canada Regulations and was
identified by the Bank Staff as one of the robbers.
On February 23rd, 1940, Harry Muller pleaded guilty before Judge Tudhope
of armed robbery and was sentenced to six years in Kingston Penitentiary. The
investigation is being continued and some valuable information concerning the
second man has been obtained which it is hoped will result in his arrest in the
near future.
Robbery — Canadian Bank of Commerce, Baden, Waterloo County.
On the afternoon of January 10th. 1940, the Baden Branch of the Canadian
Bank of Commerce was robbed by a lone armed bandit who entered the Bank
armed with a revolver and bound the manager, escaping with about S560.00.
The robber apparently escaped on foot as no automobile was seen in the
vicinity at the time of the robbery.
Investigation proved fruitless until February 7th, 1940, when a man giving
the name of John Kelly, no fixed abode, was arrested at Cornwall in the possession
of currency of large denominations.
He was identified by the manager of the Bank at Baden as the man who had
held up the Bank and was returned to Waterloo for trial.
Owing to his peculiar actions at his preliminary hearing he was examined by
psychiatrists and found to be insane. He was committed to a mental hospital.
Robbery — Royal Bank of Canada, Winona, Wentwortli County.
On August 14th, 1940, at about 3.00 o'clock in the afternoon, the Royal
Bank of Canada at Winona, Ontario, W'entworth County, was held up and
robbed of $3,793.93. One man only entered the Bank and did the actual robbery,
but it is thought from information secured that another man kept watch in a
parked car, the engine of which was running, directly outside the Bank. Shortly
after the robbery, the information was telephoned to District Headquarters,
Hamilton, and a Sergeant and Constables were immediately sent out to in-
vestigate.
The description obtained of the bandits was sent out by telephone to all
Police Officials and Constables in the district, also Provincial Police District
Headquarters, circling Hamilton to a radius of approximately fifty miles, but the
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 39
bandits made good their escape and are still at large, although e\erything has
been done to apprehend them.
Robbery — Edward Martin s Store, Kin^sbrid^e, Huron County.
On No\ember 15th, 1939, an armed hold-up took place at the store of Edward
Martin, Kingsbridge, Huron County. Three young men riding in a stolen car
held up the proprietor of the small store and service station and, after obtaining
gasoline and cigarettes, they made a get-away.
Intensive investigation resulted in the arrest of Alfred Dietrich, St. Clements,
Ontario, Lome LTttley and Donald Boehler, both of Kitchener, Ontario. On
January 4th, 1940, Boehler, a juvenile, was sentenced to St. John's Industrial
School for a term of not more than two years, and on January 11th, 1940, Alfred
Dietrich and Lome I'ttley pleaded guilty of Armed Robbery and Breaking and
Entering and were sentenced to three years in Kingston Penitentiary on each
charge.
Robbery — Sercice Station, East of Prescott, Leeds County.
Eugene Larment, Wilfred Byrne, Albert Henderson and Michael Nychai
were arrested on April 2nd, 1940, and charged with the hold-up of a Service Sta-
tion two miles east of Prescott on Number 2 Highway. Larment and Henderson
were sentenced to six years, Wilfred Bryne to four years Kingston Penitentiary.
Michael Nychai escaped from the County Gaol at Brockville and was later
arrested in Oshawa. He was brought back to Brockville on May 6th, and received
six years in Kingston Penitentiary with an additional sentence for escaping.
Robbery — Kenneth McKenzie, Culross Township, Bruce County.
As a result of charges laid by the Provincial Police, Walkerton Detachment,
against Wilfred Brochu of Montreal, this man was arrested by the Toronto City
Police Department on February 9th, 1940. Brochu allegedly stole 83,150.00 from
Kenneth McKenzie of Culross Township in Bruce County in the year 1936.
He appeared before Judge C. W. Owens at Walkerton on March 8th, 1940, and
was sentenced to serve four years in Kingston Penitentiary on each charge.
With the arrest of Arthur Douglas, John Douglas, Gladys Green and C. E.
Vanalistine, all of Ow^en Sound, Ontario, on November 19th, 1940, a series of
house-breaking in Grey County was brought to an abrupt halt. Arthur Douglas
and John Douglas (both coloured) received sentences of five years each in Kings-
ton Penitentiary. Gladys Green was given suspended sentence, and the charge
against Vanalistine was dismissed.
During the latter part of the summer of 1940, there was a series of Breaking,
Entering and Thefts from school houses in Brant, Norfolk, Wentw^orth, Halton
and Haldimand Counties. Members of the Force throughout the adjoining
districts worked on this inv^estigation resulting in a very successful conclusion
by the arrest of Mrs. Wilfred Crumb and her two daughters, Dorothy, aged 25
years, and Katharine, aged 21 years, at their residence in Paris, Ontario. A
search of their premises located hundreds of dollars worth of stolen property of
every description. These three women were charged under Section 399 C.C.
and on December 13th, 1940, they were all found guilty and each one sentenced to
serve a term of one year in jail.
40 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
With the arrest of William Montgomery (who used a score of aliases) on
February 13th, 1940, one of the most "successful" cheque rackets was brought
to a close. This man had been operating over practically all sections of the
Province and his victims were, for the most part, hotel proprietors. He was
arraigned before Magistrate John R. Blake in Kitchener Police Court on March
1st, 1940. He pleaded guilty to forty-five charges of false pretences, forgery and
theft of money. Many of these charges were on Informations forwarded from
points outside of Waterloo County. Montgomery was sentenced to serve five
years in Kingston Penitentiary.
On April 13th, 1940, Chas. P. McCarthy, ex-Chief Constable, Carleton
County, and holder of a private detective license, Ottawa, was arrested on
charges of "fabricating evidence". Following extensive investigations into
McCarthy's activities in obtaining evidence in certain divorce cases, he appeared
before the Magistrate at Ottawa and was committed for trial. On June 11th,
1940, McCarthy appeared for trial before Mr. Justice E. R. E. Chevrier and
jury on indictment charges of Perjury, Fabrication of Evidence and Procuring
Girls for Immoral Purposes. A verdict of guilty was returned and McCarthy was
sentenced to seven years in Kingston Penitentiary.
On information furnished by John Nicholson, Hardware Merchant of
Walkerton, Ontario, on November 28th, 1940, that a man giving the name of
John \\'est had purchased gunpowder, a file and flashlight from him, an investiga-
tion was immediately started into West's actions. He was located at the Hartley
House at Walkerton and in his room a large supply of sulphuric and nitric acid,
glycerin, sodium carbonate, eye droppers, gunpowder and a file were found. The
man's proper name was Edmund Scarr of Owen Sound, and he had recently been
released from Kingston Penitentiary. Scarr was charged with having explosives.
Section 114 C.C., and on December 6th, 1940, was sentenced to serve six years in
Kingston Penitentiary. He was further charged under Section 24 (a) of the
National Registration Regulations and under Section 466 C.C. He received
sentences of two years and one year respectively, sentences to run concurrently
with the Explosive Charge.
Mrs. Beck, age 52 years, of Strathcona Avenue, Westboro, Ontario, was
viciously attacked and criminally assaulted on March 31st, 1940. One Lester
Arbuckle was arrested by a member of this Force, Ottawa Detachment, and
through the very efficient manner in which the investigation was carried out,
Arbuckle was convicted and sentenced to ten years in Kingston Penitentiary.
MISSING PERSONS
Earl Donald Kirk and Wife, North Bay, District of Nipissing:
On October 4th, 1940, Earl D. Kirk and his wife left North Bay, Ontario,
driving a 1938 Plymouth, heading for points in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
They were last seen in Sudbury where they had a meal with the representative
of the British American Oil Company on the same date. They left Sudbury,
supposedly for Sault Ste. Marie, and have not been seen or heard of since.
Numerous friends and relatives throughout the west have been inter\newed,
including Kirk's mother and various women friends, but none have heard of or
from him since early in October. It was raining when Kirk left Sudbury, and it
is believed probable that the car may have left the road at some bad turn and its
1940 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL POLICE 41
occupants carried into some river or lake. Every effort has been made to try to
locate them but as they were not reported missing until November 11th, 1940,
it was impossible to drag the various rivers and lakes where they might have gone
off the road as at that time the rivers and lakes were frozen over and dragging
operations had to be suspended until Spring.

HIGHWAY TRAFFIC ACT
The laws governing and regulating the use and operation of motor vehicle,
on the highways are embodied not only in the Highw^ay Traffic and Allied Acts,
but also in the Criminal Code, and their enforcement has become one of the most
important of all Police duties.
In 1919 the Government of Ontario appointed two officers to patrol the
highway between Toronto and Hamilton and as good roads extended, the force
of Traffic Officers increased from year to year, operating under the Department of
Highways until 1930.
As the use of motor vehicles by the travelling public increased, their use also
became common by bank robbers, hold-up men and bandits, who often stole an
automobile to make their get-away after committing a crime.
In making plans to deal with this type of lawlessness, it was realized that the
Traffic Officers patrolling the highways were the key men in any scheme put into
operation, but unfortunately they could not be used to advantage for two primary
reasons.
Firstly — They had not full powers of a constable (their powers extending only
to the enforcement of the Motor Vehicle or Highway Traffic Act).
Secondly^ — Being directly under the jurisdiction of the Minister of Highways
the Officers of the Provincial Police could not direct their movements.
To correct this evident anomaly, an agreement was reached in March, 1930,
between the Department of Highways and the Attorney-General's Department
whereby the Traffic Officers were transferred to the Department of the Attorney-
General to become a Branch of the Provincial Police with full powers of Provincial
Constables, the only stipulation being that the Officers concerned would not be
taken from the Provincial Highways for other duties.
After the transfer became effective, the Traffic Officers were known as the
Motorcycle Patrol Branch of the Force and functioned under the central control
of an Inspector-in-Charge at Headquarters, Toronto.
42 REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER OF THE No. 34
The Province was divided into Eastern, Central and Western Areas with an
Inspector in charge of each Area stationed at London, Toronto and Brockville.
It was the hope and intention that the Traffic Officers would eventually
become an active integral part of the Force, but, unfortunately, the system of
central control did not prove a success, there being a noticeable lack of super-
vision and cohesion, and a decided tendency to operate as a separate "Force"
instead of functioning as a Branch of the main Force.
This tendency to operate independently was responsible for a noted lack of
co-operation between the members of the Regular Force and the Motorcycle
Patrol which became injurious to the prestige of the Force and caused unfavour-
able comment from Crown Officials and the public.
As the result of a survey regarding closer supervision and control, the
Honourable the Attorney-General issued instructions that the Motorcycle
Patrol cease to function as a separate unit and the supervision and control be
assumed by the District Inspectors as from January 1st, 1940, according to the
number of Motorcycle Constables doing duty in the District concerned.
The task of absorbing the Motorcycle Patrol by the District Inspectors
concerned was expeditiously and efficiently accomplished within a few weeks and
the results achieved have more than justified the amalgamation.
At the time of the amalgamation the staff employed in Headquarters Office,
Motorcycle Patrol, consisted of:
1 Staff Inspector 1 Area Inspector
1 Provincial Constable 4 Clerks and Stenographers
This office has now been abolished and the Staff Inspector and Clerical Staff
transferred to other duties or Departments.
The rank of Area Inspector was also abolished and the three Area Inspectors
demoted to Patrol Sergeants.
At the end of 1940 the strength of the Motorcycle Patrol consisted of 121,
all ranks, patrolling 4,450 miles of highways in Southern Ontario, approximately
36.7 miles per man, and the number of motor vehicles licensed and in operation
in the Province were as follows:
Passenger Vehicles 610,576
Buses 1,058
Two-Purpose V'ehicles 1,855
Commercial V'ehicles 84,980
Trailers 44.650
Motorcycles 5.403
In addition to the highways patrolled in Southern Ontario, the members
of the Force in Northern Ontario are responsible for 2,818 miles of highways
which have been designated "King's Highways" since 1935.
To give additional protection to lives and property and further improve the
supervision of the Motorcycle Patrol, the Honourable the Attorney-General in
December, 1940, approved the purchase of five specially equipped automobiles
to be used by the Patrol Sergeants in carrying out their duties.
These automobiles are the very latest in Patrol Cars, and are painted a
distinctive colour with appropriate lettering on the doors and the front and rear

PERMITS AND PROHIBITORY ORDERS RPXEIVED
FOR CANCELLATION
During the year there were 2,523 Liquor Permits and Prohibitory Board
Orders for cancellation received from members of the Force, and in each case
where the report of the Officer justified the cancellation or a Prohibitory Board
Order, these reports were forwarded to the Chief Commissioner of the Liquor
Control Board, with a covering letter recommending cancellations, and in prac-
tically every case the Permit in question was cancelled or a Board Order was
issued as the case may be.
SAMPLES OF LIQUOR FOR ANALYSIS
There were 345 samples of liquor for analysis received from members of
this Force and JNIunicipal Police Forces throughout the Province.
The work in connection with these samples is very important. When the
samples are received, a record of the seal numbers and other particulars are placed
in a record book before the samples are delivered to the Analyst. When they
are analyzed, a Certificate of Analysis, showing the strength by volume of
absolute alcohol is prepared by the Analyst and is sworn to by the person in
charge of Liquor for Analysis. These Certificates are then mailed to the Police
Officers from whom the samples were received to be used as conclusive evidence
in the Police Courts as to the strength of the liquor seized.
Reports show good results were accomplished in the enforcement of The
Liquor Control Act by members of the Force under the direction of their District
Inspectors during the past year notwithstanding the continual criticism regarding
the non-enforcement of our Liquor Laws.
INVESTIGATIONS (GENERAL)
A total of 61,234 occurrences were reported for investigation during the period
under review.
These cover a very wide range and, in addition to matters pertaining to
general law enforcement, included requests from foreign Consuls, Police Depart-
ments in United States, i\ustralia, and European Countries, also from friends
and relatives of missing persons asking for advice and assistance.

FIFTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
NIAGARA PARKS COMMISSION
To Thi- Honourable Albert Matthews, LL.D.,
Lieutenant-Governor oj the Province of Ontario.
May It Please Your Honour:
The Niagara Parks Commission begs to submit for the information of the
Legislature, the fiftv-fourth Annual Report, covering the fiscal year from April 1,
1939 to March 31,'l94().
The membership remains as during the previous year, consisting of Hon.
T. B. McQuesten, K.C., Minister of Highways, Toronto, Chairman; Dr. G. B.
Snyder, Niagara Falls, Vice-Chairman; Hon. W. L. Houck, B.S., Niagara Falls;
A. J. Haines, M.L.A., Jordan; J. C. M. German, K.C., Toronto; Ross Harstone,
Hamilton; A. T. Whitaker, Brantford; Donald McGilhvray, Port Colborne.
C. Elhson Kaumeyer, Chippawa. is General Manager and vSecretary to the
Commission.
Your Commission, within the hmits of its finances, has continued its pro-
gramme of preservation, restoration, commemoration, beautification and attrac-
tion, as will be detailed in this report, but under greater handicaps than since
the trying days of 1914-18, the years of the First Great War. With an outbreak
of a new war, though the aggressors were the same as before many plans had
to be curtailed and your Commission co-operated with the authorities. Provincial
and Dominion, in every possible way. The Commission was particularly hit,
financially, through the necessity of having to barricade the main roadway in
front of the Park Restaurant and reaching to Table Rock House, which is the
largest revenue producer of the Commission's Concessions and a favourite
particularly with U. S. Tourists. The Table Rock House remained closed all
through the Winter. In the Spring at an expense of some .110,000 the barricades
were changed so as to allow traffic past the Power Houses and to reach Table
Rock House, but when Germany invaded Holland and Belgium and carried on
total war against France and Britain the old barricades were re-erected, again
cutting off traffic from Chippawa and forcing the closure of Table Rock House
and the Tunnel under the Falls, it being felt essential that no chances should
be taken which might result in the Power Houses being sabotaged and Ontario's
power supply for war purposes cut off. Your Commission concurred in the
drastic action, feeling that it was essential that Canada's war efforts should not
be risked or handicapped when the Empire is at war with an enemy whose
avowed intention is to destroy the Empire and all its component parts.
During the war years, therefore, the Commission expects to meet its obliga-
tions but to conserve its resources, with especial regard to protection of the
vital Hydro- Electric plants which are located within its domains.

The Royal Visit
On June 7, 1939, the Queen Victoria Park, operated by the Niagara Parks
Commission, had the distinguished honour of being visited by Their Gracious
Majesties, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. Arriving at vSt. Catharines,
on the Royal Train, Their Majesties detrained there and motored to Xiagara-
on-the-Lake, that focal point of the history of Upper Canada, particularly in
the years of British occupation prior to and including the War of 1812-14, or
Newark, as this delightfully located village was known when it housed the first
Parliament of Upper Canada, Fort George (under construction), Fort Missis-
sauga. Navy Hall (also under construction) and the William Lyon Mackenzie
reconstructed home and print shop.
Their Majesties then motored via the Niagara Parks Commission River
Parkway to Niagara Falls, where the cavalcade made a brief tour of the streets,
entering Queen Victoria Park by the Mowat Gate and proceeding to the Ad-
ministration Building, where they were greeted by Hon. T. B. McQuesten,
Chairman of the Commission, who introduced to Their Majesties the members
of the Commission and, in the cases applicable, their wives. Within the Ad-
ministration Building, tea was privately served to Their Majesties, who inscribed
their names in a Golden Book prepared for the occasion and now a highly prized
memento of the visit, preserved under glass. Their Majesties then proceeded
to Table Rock, adjacent to Table Rock House, where they viewed, in private,
the majesty of the falling waters of the Great Cataract. Resuming their journey
of state. Their Majesties proceeded to the General Brock Hotel, where they
were to view the special illumination of the Falls. It was the first visit of
Queen Elizabeth to Niagara Falls, but the second for King George who, as a
midshipman on H.M.S. Cumberland, had many years before paid Niagara an
informal visit.
Your Commission has reason to believe that Their Majesties were entranced
by their vision of the Falls, and were highly pleased with the surroundings as
observed in Queen Victoria Park, named after the King's Most Gracious Great
Grandmother.
With the completion of the restoration of Old Fort Erie in 193S and its
opening in 1939, attention of the Commission was largely centred on Ft. George,
situated near the mouth of the Niagara River where it flows into Lake Ontario,
and which was built by Governor Simcoe when, after the American Revolution,
Fort Niagara, across the river was handed over to the newly constituted United
States. As recorded in previous annual reports, then Commissioner Fred Beard.
St. Catharines, worked continuously on the securing of authoritative data on
old Fort George, with the assistance of the Canadian Militia Department, and
it was possible to proceed with reconstruction of the fort with all the original
plans available. Work proceeded energetically on the site which is across the
highway from the Canadian Militia encampment at Niagara-on-the-Lake, and
arrangements are complete for its opening July 1, 1940, beyond the purview of
this report.
Story of 1"ort Ghorc.k
In this connection the following resume of the story of Fort George, pre-
pared by Ronald Way, Historian of the Commission, will be of interest: —
Built shortly before the troubled days of 1812-14 wIku ihv I nited States and Canada were
at war, picturesque Fort George at Niagara-on-the-Lake was originally designed to keep .\mericans
ofT Hritish soil. Today it is l)eing restored by the Niagara Parks Commission as a tourist attrac-
tion to hel]) bring American visitors to Canada.

8 THE NIAGARA PARKS COMMISSION FOR 1940 No. 41
There were three distinct phases in the existence of Fort George. .After the first of these
phases, and throughout the second and third, the fort was so altered in appearance and design
that it is simpler to imagine that two (iiiiic (lifTL-rent forts occupied the same site at successive
periods.
The original fort was constructed by Lt. Governor Sirrcoe Iretween 1797 and 1799 to replace
Fort Niagara which was transferred to the United .States after the American Revolution. Fort
George was the principal British post on the Niagara frontier until 1813 and occupied a height
close to the rivers bank nearly a mile above the town on Niagara. After a brave resistance by its
garrison, it fell to the Americans during the battle of Fort George on May 27, 1S13, but before
withdrawing, the British garrison set fire to the buildings and blew up the earth works.
Between 1799 and its capture and destruction on May 27. 1S13, there were no important
alterations in its structure. An official military rejiort of the spring of 1812 describes Fort George
as: "An irregular field work, consisting of six small bastions faced with framed timber and plank
connected by a loopholed stockade, 12 feet high outside where there was a shallow dry ditch."
The solid earth bastions were floored with plank to form platforms for cannon and the parapets
Ijierced with numerous gun embrasures.
There were originally two roads leading into the fort passing approximately through the
centres of the north-west and south-east lines of stockade. The ditch was crossed by small
wooden bridges and each gateway protected by a triangular outwork known as a redan. At the
beginning of the War of 1812, the southeast entrance proved to be an unnecessary source of
weakness and was permanently closed.
In 1812 the armament of Fort George consisted of 5 guns; one 12 Pdr. and two 24 Pdr. long
guns and two mortars. The three long guns were placed as follows: one of the 24 Pdr. in the
north-east bastion, the other 24 Pdr. in the north bastion, and the 12 Pdr. in the west bastion.
The two mortars were mounted in the east and south bastions.
Within this first Fort George were five blockhouses which served as defensille barracks for
the troops, separate officer's quarters, a guardhou.^e, storehouFcs, a kitchen and a powder rragazine.
There was also a small octagonal blockhouse in the redan on the south-east front. All of the
blockhou'-es were constructed of squared logs, two stories in height and had splintf r-proof roofs.
The largest of these was about the same size and design as the stone barrack in Fort Niagara,
was nine feet higher and considered to command every part of the American Fort. The powder
magazine was built of .solid masonry with bomb-proof arches. It was enclosed by a thick, high
embankment of earth, to protect it from gun-fire.
On the margin of the river and immediately in front of the fort were four clapboarded build-
ings known as Navy Hall, which had been constructed during the American Revolution to serve
as winter quarters for the officers and seamen of the provincial marine on Lake Ontario. Nearby,
was a good sized wharf and, at this period, these buildings were utilized for military stores. The
largest, frequently referred to as the Red Barracks, is in existence today and has been restored
by the Niagara Parks Commission.
Early travellers were favourably impressed with the appearance of the original Fort George.
In 1800, John Maude wrote that the situation was pretty, the fort new and remarkably neat,
built on the edge of a handsome green or common and skirted with a few tolerable houses. An-
other traveller, wlio visited the Fort in 1806 has recorded that it was built of cedar pickets and
earth, the buildings on it of much neatness. In 1807, the American, Christian vSchultz, was no
less pleased.
While the average layman was considerably taken with the appearance and apparent
strength of Ft. George, engineer officers had far less confidence in its military effectiveness. Sir
George Prevost wrote ujion his arrival in Canada, that Fort George was but a temporary field work,
incapable of much resistance against an enemy in force. In February 1913. the officer com-
manding the Royal luigineers in Canada, reported that the fort was in a very ruinous and un-
finished state, and might have been l)etter situated for it neither commanded the entrance to
the river nor protected the town of Niagara. He recommended that the lines of stockade should
be rei)laced with solid earth ramparts in order to afford adequate protection against gun-fire,
that the upper stories of the blockhouse as they were too greatly exposed be taken down, and
that the storehouse at Navy Hall be removed from the river bank to prevent their complete
destruction in the event of an attack. Within two months, the fall of Fort George to the Ameri-
cans demonstrated the soundness of this criticism.
As previously mentioned', the ori;;inal Fort George was almost completely destroyed on
May 27, 1813. Portions of the stockades and barracks not annihilated by the enemy's guns,
had been fired by the British. Only the solid masses of the bastions and the stone i)owder maga-
zine remained. In order to strengthen their hold on British territory during their more than
six months' occupation of Niagara, tlie invaders constructitl a field work upon the ruins of the
British l'\jrt. This was tl;e second I-'ort Gei)rge.
The outline of this American h'ort is ea^-ily traceable before the present restoration work.
Knclosing only one lialf ll e area of the original Fort George, its five "full" bastions were con-
nected with curtains of solid earth — a more suitable arrangement than the former British stockade.
The ditch was deep, and there was a line of picketing on the berm between the escarp and the
exterior slope of the parapet. Three long l)arracks were built by the invaders to house their
garrison. They were hastily constructed and only of a temporary nature. Being outside the new

Fort, the former British powder magazine could not be utilized, and the American magazine
was no more than a structure of logs and earth.
The main body of the Americans was encamped between Fort George and the town of
Niagara. In addition to reconstructing the Fort, the Americans extended trenches in a straight
line from its north-west bastion to St. Mark's Church in Niagara and thence south-east to the
river bank. The Fort thus formed the left of an extensive entrenched camp.
So rapid was the British advance of December 10th, 1813 which compelled the American
evacuation of Niagara, that while the enemy were able to set fire to the town, they were prevented
from seriously damaging Fort George. On December 22nd, Lieutenant-General Drummond
advi.sed Sir George Prevost, that as none of the works were materially injured, the Fort could be
placed in a respectable state of defense in the Spring without much labour.
During 1S14 and 1815, the British constructed within the recaptured Fort two large splinter-
proof barracks and a new stone powder magazine. One barrack was 110 feet long, the other
75 feet, and both 25 feet wide. In order that the building might be concealed by the ramparts,
they were low with only seven feet of interior head-room and each was divided by brick partitions
into four rooms. This second stone powder magazine survived until the beginning of the present
century.
No further improvements were made at Fort George. The war of 1812 had made obvious
the defects in the position of the Fort and military authorities were now unanimous in their
condemnation of the site. In the vSpring of 1814, the British had began the erection of a field
work at Mississauga Point, a superior site which completely commanded the mouth of the river.
Major-General Robinson wrote to Sir Gordon Drummond in July the following year that:
"Fort George is of no military value as a work of defence although it serves the very useful
purpose and also contains a magazine and Ordnance Stores. I beg leave therefore to recommend
its being left untouched for the present as it will gradually crumble away and may be destroyed
at any time in a few hours by small mines in the salient angles of the Bastions."
The decision of the commander-in-chief was set forth in a letter to Lord Bathurst of August
loth, 1915:
"It has become almost indispensable requisite for the securing of the Harbour and neigh-
boring district of Niagara to enlarge the Fort at Mississauga Point, which at the time of its con-
struction, amidst the greatest difficulties was laid out on a scale, so circumscribed, as nothing
but the existing deficiency of means would justify. In consequence, I have given orders that
the expense of keeping up old and useless Fort George, already tumbling into ruins be discontinued."
Perhaps the most important decision involved in the restoration of Fort George was the
period of its history which the reconstruction of would rei^resent. It was the first Fort George
which withstood the American attack in 1812 and within which General Brock was buried. The
second Fort as built by the Americans and afterwards occupied by the British was never attacked
and had few historical associations for Canadians. For these reasons it was decided that the
Fort might best be placed in its original state as built bv the orders of Lt. -Governor Simcoe
in 1797.
The work of restoration has been in progress since the spring of 1937 under the direction
of the Niagara Parks Commis!-ion and is expected to be completed by July 1. 1940, when the
Fort will be officially opened to the i)ublic.
The bastions, stockades and other defenses have all been carefully rebuilt according to
the original plans of the Royal Engineers. Eleven of the fourteen original buildings have also
been restored. The officer's quarters, some of the soldier's barrack rooms, the guard room, the
kitchen and the artificer's shop are being refurnished as thev were lived in bv the troops of 1797
to 1812.
The Fort will be opju from 9.30 a.m. to 9.30 p.m. daily commencing July 1st.
Re-Openino of Old Fort Erie
During the tenure of office of this present Commission, Old Fort Erie,
which has been allowed to fall into neglect, its very stones being removed for
rock gardens and other uses, has been reconstructed. On July 1. 1939, the
Old Fort was officially re-opened.
Garrisoned by soldiers wearing the picturescjue uniforms of IS 12, and with
old guns of that date reconditioned and ready to fire, the Old Fort was in gala
attire. Hon. T. R. McQuesten, chairman, and members of the Commission,
were present for the occasion. Members of the Frontier Branch, Canadian
Legion of Fort Erie, and members of the Buffalo Legion Post met at the Inter-
national border at the Peace Bridge, and marched to the Fort, headed by a

The historically accurate drawbridge over the moat into the Old Fort was
then operated, and the party proceeded to the interior of the Fort, one of the
ancient guns was fired, and the museum and other parts of the Old Fort thrown
open to the public.
A pageant covering the life of the area from the time of the Indians, through
the arrival of the French, the British, the pioneers, then the erection and defense
and capture of the Fort, was presented evenings on three occasions.

Land Purchases in Year
In accordance with its continuous policy of purchasing all abutting pro-
perties which came on the market, when a fair price was reached, the Commission
during the year made several such purchases.
The major property was that of John D. Larkin, Inc., 32 acres of land in
the Township of Niagara, purchased at a cost of 820,000. Second largest
purchase was of the Ferguson property. Fort Erie, on which were located three
houses. These were sold and removed. The purchase price was 812,000, of
which the Peace Bridge Authority paid 82,000 and received 8100.84 back from
the sale of the three houses which were removed. The Commission received
$50-4.16 from the house sale. The third major purchase was International
Railway Company property near Oueenston Heights Park, originally purchased
as a hotel site. The I.R.C. asked 80,500 for the property, but accepted 88,000
from the Commission in Canadian Funds. The property consists of 13-6 10
acres.
Other properties purchased during the year were:
Lands situated across parkway from the Whirlpool Rapids Elevator Build-
ing, 81,()0().
Two pieces of land, 2'A\ square feet westerly side of River Road, south of
Ricardo vStreet, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Mrs. Harris W. Price, 81,500.
Water lot from P. 1{. Garson, at I'ort P)rie, 5(51 feet frontage, at 85 a foot
frontage, $2,850.
Niagara-on-the-Lake, Col. C. C. Kinney property, 84,000.
Lots 13-18 inclusixe, l-'ort Ivrie, from Fort Erie Beach Company, Fort
Erie, $3,000. This and the I'^erguson purchase give the Commission the complete
water line area from the Peace Bridge to Old l-'ort Erie.
I.R.C. Suit
The International Raihvav Conipan\- entered suit against the Niagara
Parks Connnission for 8241,!)()3 in interest on the amount oi compensation it
THE NIAGARA PARKS COMMISSION FOR 1940 15
received after the Company gave up operation and ownership of its Hnes along
the Canadian side of the Niagara River in \\KV2.
Until 11)82 the Company, which is incorporated under the laws of New York
State, operated the Railway along the Niagara River's west bank from Queenston
to Chippawa, uiuk-r an agreement made on Dec. 4, ISOl, witli the Parks Com-
mission.
The agreement gave the Company the right to continue operations for
forty years and contained provisions for renewal at the end of that period.
On Sept. 1st, 1982, when the agreement expired, the company did not renew
its Canadian rights, abandoning the line, possession reverted to the Niagara
Parks Commission. Three arbitrators were later appointed to decide upon
compensation.
In 1935, following arbitration, the compensation was set at §179,104. An
appeal was launched, however, and in 1987 the amount was determined at
81,057,486 by the Privy Council.
The Commission paid the International Railway Company SI, 057, 436 plus
interest from 1935 to 1937. The Company claimed interest from 1932 to 1987,
less the $23,788 of interest already paid.
The action was heard by Air. Justice Kelly in non-jury high court. The
company was represented by J. W. Pickup, K.C., and Colonel J. W. G. Thomp-
son, the Commission by Arthur vSlaght, K.C., M.P., and R. I. Ferguson, K.C.
The Niagara Parks Commission claimed the agreement contained no pro-
vision requiring to pay interest on such compensation, and that it is immune
from liability in the action by reason of being an agent of the Crown. It also
claimed the International Railway Company was not entitled to interest on the
compensation until the amount of compensation was fixed.
The action was dismissed with costs. Reasons for judgment were given
by Mr. Justice Kelly.
The Commission was naturally pleased with this ending of the lengthy
litigation, which cost the Commission nearly -SI, 500, 000 in the award, the costs
of arbitration, appeal to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of Ontario,
appeal to the Privy Council, and finally appeal over the Interest. Unfortunately
a further appeal has been made to the Privy Council.
Original Press Secured
After long negotiations, the Commission purchased, at a cost of .$500.00
from H. J. Pettypiece of the Forest Free Press, the original press of William Lyon
Mackenzie, upon which were printed the weekly copies of "The Colonial Ad-
vocate", at Newark (Niagara) and later used in Toronto, where it was thrown
into the Bay and eventually recovered. It will be set up in the William Lyon
Mackenzie home at Queenston.
The Commission authorized its historian, Ronald Way, to secure printing
equipment which would likely have been used in the time of William Lyon
Mackenzie and "The Colonial Advocate".
In connection with the authenticity of the William Lyon Mackenzie Press,
the following letter appeared in the Toronto Globe and Mail.
16 THE REPORT OF No. 41
Mackenzie's Historic Press
To the Editor of The Globe and Mail:
Recently some doubt has lieen expressed by your readers as to the authenticity of William
Lyon Mackenzie's old hand press which has now gone to a well earned rest provided by the
Niagara Parks Commission.
The following information in regard to this Press appeared in a histor\- of Parkhill's new>-
paper prejjared and ]iublished in 1909 and may serve to clear up the doubtful points.
"Mr. Wallace Graham in equii^ijing his first plant in the Parkhill Gazette had become the
possessor of the old William Lyon Mackenzie Printing Press on which the 'Colonial Advocate'
had been printed and which, with the type, the so-called patriots threw into Toronto Bay on
June 8, 1S26. The Press was recovered and was used again by Mackenzie in the troublous times
of 1837-38. In 1S72 the Gazette office was located on King Street near the first Powell house
which was that year destroyed by fire. The fire spreading did some damage to the Gazette ]:)lant
and the Mackenzie Press was put so much out of repair that it was told to the late H. C. Baird
of the Eagle Foundry for old iron. Mr. Eaird, out of veneration for it, refrained from bre?king
it up.
"In the early eighties T. Claude Dean published the 'Parkhill Herald' for nearly two years.
Being of a mechanical turn of mind, he bought the old Press and with the services of the Eagle
Foundry staff had it put into working order once more with a rolling cylinder substituted for
the former lever attachments. In the destruction of the Herald plant by fire the old Press was
again badly damaged and once again its old irons found their wa}' to the scrap heap of the Eagle
Foundry."
Over sixty years ago, Mr. H. J. Pettypiece, Editor of the Forest Free Press, visited this
scrap heap and once again rescued the Press, having it repaired into good working order, and I
believe with the old lever attachment. Since that time the Press has been, until recently ac-
quired by the Niagara Parks Commission, part of the equipment of the office of the Forest Free
Press, and has been in constant use, I am told, as a proof press and for some job work, such as
auction sale bills.
The Press was used on a float prepared bj- one of the Toronto papers 1 1 believe it was the
Globe) during the Old Boy's celebration some ten or twelve years ago, through the courtesy of
Mr. Pettypiece.
I hope this letter will clear up any doubt as to the authenticity of this Press, and that due
credit will be given to "Mr. Pettypiece, veteran publisher, for the preservation of this historical
relic."

QuEBNSTON Restaurant
After many years' service, the Restaurant at Oueenston Heights Park,
adjacent to the General Brock Memorial, was found to be past all hope of repair.
The Commission therefore, called for tenders for a new stone structure, with
red tile roof, in keeping with the general lines of the Commissions' architecture
throughout the Parks vSystem, which was constructed early this Spring. The
old building was so dilapidated as to be entirely out of keeping with the surroimd-
ings, which include in addition to the Brock's ^lonument, the site of P'ort Drura-
mond, the Laura Secord Monument and the site of the Battle of Queenston
Heights.
The Contract for the new structure, plans for which were carefully gone
over by the Commission, and changes suggested, was awarded and completion
date set for April 1, 1040.
The old building was located without regard to possible vistas. The new
building was erected on the side of the Oueenston Ivscarpment. one story to the
south and two stories to the north, where it is possible to get a view of the Lower
Niagara River extending to Lake (hitario, one of the most entrancing views
which could possibly be obtained, though without the majesty of Niagara Falls
as viewed from the Park Restaurant in Queen \'ictoria Park.
The old building was removed after tenders had been called. Such equip-
ment as was of valtie imder the new conditions was retained and transferred.

Apprentice Gardeners' School
The year saw the cuhiiiiiation of the first three-year class at the Apprentice
Gardeners' .School at the Niagara Glen. A dinner was tendered by the Com-
mission to the ji^raduating class, the members of the intermediate and junior
classes, and the parents of the boys. To Mr. James Waters, Hamilton, was
awarded the scholarship f(jr the three years, this consisting of a year's stay at
Kew (lardens, London, Ivngland, and tra\elling expenses to and from the Empire
metropolis. (It is perhaps significant that when offered the opportunity to
withdraw from the course, taking instead a cash award, because of the threatening
war conditions, Mr. Waters decided to proceed according to the original plans
and went over, greatly enjoying the work and the contact at this famous upper
school for gardeners. No students are admitted, it should be noted, unless they
have formerly served as apprenticeships or ser\ed in horticulture actively.)
At the graduation dinner, members of the Commission spoke briefly, and
expressed their satisfaction that the classes had proven so successful. Tribute
was paid to the instructors of the class, who were also guests of the Commission
for the ceremonies. Diplomas were presented to each of the seven graduates.
L. G. Riley, the exchange student sent by Kew Gardens under the scholarship
arrangement, has fitted in splendidly with the other youths constituting the
classes.
Placement of five of the seven graduates on the Commission staff was made
as follows:
Ray Halward, propagator at the Training School.
Alfred Pain, sub-foreman, greenhouse.
Hugh McCracken, foreman, Mather Park.
William Holmes, sub-foreman, Queen \'ictoria Park.
Jack ^Slartin, treeman.
School Activities in Year
The year's activities at the School are reviewed in a report by Mr. K. M.
Broman, Superintendent of Arboriculture, as presented to the Commission
as follows: —
"I beg to submit a report of the Training School for Apprentice Gardeners from December 1,
1938 to November 30, 1939.
During the Winter of 1938 and 1939 our lecture and work schedule arranged for the term
worked splendidly. We were able to teach the students the theory behind the work they do.
They also spent 3,928 hours learning the practical side of tree-surgery and the culture of annuals
and perennials in the Park Greenhouse and Queen \'ictoria Park. When the weather permitted
they enjoyed recreation on their ice-rink behind the garage and this sport tended to bring them
into closer fellowship.
Early in April we planted vegetable seeds in the cold frames in order to have an early and
good supply of vegetables for the Restaurants. In ^Jay we transplanted these vegetables, in-
cluding cabbage, cauhflower, melons, squash, etc., to our kitchen garden in the northern section
of the School Grounds, Carrots, turnips, beets, broccoli, Kale, Brussel Sprouts, parsley, rhubarb,
corn, peas, in short everything there is a market for, were planted in the open ground in May
and we had a very good \ield of these crops.
After the lectures were over, toward the middle of April, the apprentices spent a week
learning the methods in which to make cuttings of various trees and shrubs. Thej^ were very
keenly interested in this work and thej- had very excellent results in the percentage of cuttings
taking root.
Toward the end of April, when the weather conditions were suitable and the soil was not
too wet and sticky, we started our spring planting of trees and shrubs. We planted approximately
seventy-five different species and varieties of roses, and fifteen different kinds of lilacs and spirea
in a border along the Parkway in the north of the School Gates. In addition to this we planted
hundreds of evergreens, one hundred hawthorns, three hundred poplar trees and about the same
number of pyramidal maples in the vicinity of the W hirlpool. Two hundred and fifty Amelanchier
18 THE REPORT OF No. 41
the Shad-1:)ush or Service-Berry, were planted nearby, and when their leaves turn to bright hues in
the fall they will be a sight well worth seeing.
Five hundred trees and shrubs were sent from the Nursery to be planted behind the Ad-
ministration Building and on the island of the naturalistic pond in Queen \'ictoria Park. In
our Nursery rows at the School we set out thousands of seedlings or cuttings of forsythia, snow-
berry, willow, roses, etc., which we had germinated or produced in our cold frames. F"our thousand
and fifty black walnut trees, grow-n from seed in 1938, were taken down to Xiagara-on-the-Lake to
be planted near the 14,000 pin oaks, 1,800 Norway Maples and 7,100 scarlet oak which were
planted in our sub-nursery down there in the Spring of 1938. Two hundred and seventy shrubs
of different sorts (including Taxus) were sent to Oakes Garden Theatre in the spring and one
hundred and thirty Bean-Trees were taken down to Mather Park this fall. In addition to this
we had two students go down to the Military Camp, Niagara-on-the-Lake, and assist in planting
a hedge consisting of seven hundred Caragana arborescens, the shrubs being removed from our
Nursery rows. The Coronation Oak are growing very well.
Raspberry plants, donated by Mr. Broman, were set out in the vegetable garden this year
occupying an area of four thousand and eighty square yards of land, and strawberry plants
taking up an area of three thousand four hundred square yards, and also rhubarb occupying
two thousand square yards of land.
The Flag-Pole for the school arrived Tuesday, May 16, and was put in place May 20, 19.39.
We were very pleased to be able to fly the Union Jack the day the King and Queen drove by the
School, Wednesday, June 7, at 6. .30 p.m. Many people again remarked about the Ijeauty and
splendor of our Iris borders along the edge of the Parkway and their blooms were at their best
when the King and Queen came by.
Our Peony collection planted in the Fall of 1937 and consisting of over three hundred and
thirty varieties bloomed for the first time this year and they attracted many tourists. Also, our
two hundred varieties of Phlox bloomed very well throughout the summer months even though
we had quite a dry summer this year. The collection of hybrid tea roses and the various sorts
of lilies were praised by visitors driving into the School to look around.
Quite a historical event took place at the Training School, Friday, July 14th, 1939, when the
first class of apprentice gardeners to come to the School (July, 1936) were graduated on that date.
All the Apprentices at the .School, the Staff, and the parents of the Graduating Class attended
a banquet given by the Commissioners in honour of the graduates and at which the diplomas
and scholarships were awarded to them. James E. Waters from Hamilton, received the Scholar-
ship to go to Kew^ Gardens in England and study for one year. He sailed July 21, and is enjoying
the work and experience at Kew very much.
Leonard G. Riley, the exchange student from the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, England,
arrived at the School, Saturday, July 29, 1939, and we are greatly pleased with his active interest
in the work at the School.
After July 14, we had only eighteen students at the School. We sent the students, alternat-
ing them, up to work at Oakes Garden Theatre, Queen \'ictoria Park, or the Greenhouses. In
August and September the apprentices were sent dowMi to work at Fort George and they carried
on excellent work in grading and making preparations for landscape work to be done there.
During the latter half of July and August the apprentices were busy weeding the nursery
stock, pruning, and doing general maintenance work at the School, besides making many improve-
ments in the grounds around the Lecture Hall and Residence.
Mr. Hamilton, our Botany Teacher, was able to give each of the students practical work in
botany during the summer months. He took one student with him each day to assist him in
collecting specimens of the wild ])lants found in various sections of the Niagara Parks Com-
mission's properties. The students were taught how to identify plants unknown to them at
first, and they took a great deal of interest in this W'ork.
We are quite pleased to report the excellent work of Hugh McCracken, one of our graduate
students, who came from Brant ford. He is the foreman at Mather Park, Fort Erie, and has
proven himself very reliable. Ray Halward, .Alfred Pain, William Holmes and Jack Martin,
all graduates of this year, are doing excellent work in the various jobs in which they are employed
in the Parks System.
Thursday, August 31, 1939, eighteen ai)prentice-gardeners were taken to the Canadian
National Exhibition, in Toronto, ancl they sjjcnt a very profitable day there.
During the latter part of July, August and vSeptember we had the students make many
thousands of phlox, ])urple-leaved plum, red-leaved barberry, and conifer or evergreen cuttings,
and these were placed in the cold frames. This type of work is very valuable to the students and
next spring we should have hundreds of these plants to grow and take care of, for future planting
throughout our Parks System.
Norton Weaver, a Second Year Ai)prenlice, left the School September ."), 1939, to help his
father at home on the farm.
In Octol^cr and November great cpiantilies of seed were collected from the shrubs and trees
in the nursery rows and the country side, and this seed was stratified toward late Noveml»er.
The great majority of it will be ready to be sown next spring.
Our new tractor arrived at the School, September 26th, and it has proven of great advantage.

being vt-ry i)ow'trfiiI and enal)liii« us to carry on our fall plouxHinK at a nuich urealcr rate. The
new manure-spreader has saved us nuieh time ar.d is very useful.
The new cold storage addition to the kitchen at the Training School was sorely needed and
we were pleased when it was finished by the stone masons on September 2'.Hh.
We were able to get a good start with the new students on October 2nd, as they all started
at the very same time, and they are very interested in their work.
One hundred pullets were purchased and came to the School October 4, and were housed
in the poultry buihling. They jirevent waste by cleaning u]) the scrai)s from the kitchen. The
Swans were brought down to the School in October and we fi.xed a i)ond for them and they are fine.
A new lily-bed, with helleborus in between the lilies, was i)lanted near the Kesidence starting
October 2.3, and it together with the display of hundreds of tulip; i)lanted nearby, should be
very attractive next spring.
Friday, November 3, the students held their Hallow-e'en party and dance in the Lecture
Hall and it was a great sticcess. Doctor Snyder and Mr. Kaumeyer visited it and complimented
the boys on their decorative work.
A successful Flower vShow bringing many hundreds of people was held at the Glen Restaurant,
Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Novemljer IS, 19 and 20, resjiectivcly. Attractive trees and
shridjs from the School Grounds were arranged by the students, on the verandah outside the
Restaurant and were an excellent addition to the chrysanthemums within.
This fall we have carried on a great deal of our arboretum planting. Widespread changes
will be observed in the School Grounds Iiy next sjjring. Landscajjc work is being carried on by the
a])i)rentices, down at the Mackenzie Building and Oueenston. Owing to the very favourable
weather for our outside work lectures will not commence before Christmas this year.
Two thousand six hundred and twenty-four quarts (2,024) of canned fruits, conserves, etc.,
were preserved this fall in the kitchen at the Training School. This includes tomato juice, beets,
cherries, red currant jelly, gooseberries, prunes, pears, plums, beans, peach conserve, peaches,
chilisauce, grape jam, citron and applesauce, etc. With the exception of the grapes and peaches
everything else was obtained either at the School, being grown in the vegetable garden, or from
orchards and lands belonging to the Niagara Parks Commission.
May I permit myself to saj- that the students are very interested in their work and that
the personnel at the school have all been doing very satisfactory work.

Horticultural Activities
The Report of John Oakes, Chief Gardener, Queen \'ictoria Park, covering
the year's activities, reads as follows: —
"During the months of January, February and March, lectures of floriculture, greenhouse
work, and vegetable gardening were given at the Training School from 2.30 to 3.45 each afternoon.
This included Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. No lectures on Saturday,
general supervision of the Greenhouses and Grounds along with ]3reparation for the lectures
taking up the rest of the time.
In the Greenhouse propagation starts in February and constant care has to be exercised
to see that sufBcient material is available for spring bedding and for cut flowers.
Grass cutting machinery is overhauled at this time. All the cutting units are cleaned,
repaired and ground. Queenston Heights Park. Niagara Glen, Lundy's Lane and the Old Fort
are included.
Spring work begins in April and the grounds are cleaned, slirub beds dug, and planting
and propagation carried on at the Greenhouse.
On or about the 24th of Mav spring bedding is started. During the year 1939 approximately
20,000 plants were used in the Park Beds, 1S,000 to 19,000 in Oakes Garden Theatre. 2,000 at
Queenston Heights and NOG at Lundy's Lane, also the planting of plants for cut flowers at the
Greenhouse along with the dahlias and gladioli.
Some 5,700 Crataegus comprising 140 varieties, 76 malus, 5 varieties and 5,458 flowering
shrubs, 146 varieties were sent to the Glen Nurseries. These were propagated and grown at
the Greenhouse.
A supply of flowers was commenced at the Restaurant May 19 and continued until Sep-
tember 29. During that time 246 dozen Tulips, 511 dozen Gladioli, and 2,803 dozen other
flowers was supplied. There were also several occasions when large quantities were required.
Decorative plants and palms were used during the .season, both in the Restaurant and the
Commissioners' Chambers.
Herl)aceous i)lants were sup])lieii from tlie Greenhouse Gardens to Oakes Garden Theatre,
Glen Nur.sery and the Park.
During the summer months the supervision of the grading between Table Rock and the
Canadian Niagara Power Company was carried out and seeding completed as far as possible.
The sod at the southern end of Table Rock was left to a late date to enable us to use this for
repair work in the Park Grounds.
THE NIAGARA PARKS COMMISSION FOR 1940 21
Aiipruxiniatcly 17.000 iiiw si)riiiK Flowering liulhs wt-re i)laiitf<l in Oakes Garden Theatre,

Aijproxinialely ."),000 viohis were planted at the Oakes (iarden Theatre, 7,000 in (Jueen
Victoria Park and 400 at Qneenston. These were raised al the Greenhouse.
At the Canadian National I{xhil)ition the exhibit of the Hydro Commission of Ontario was
landscaped with lawn and shrubs. This was much apjireciated l)y the Hydro Stall.
During the King's visit the decorations along the driveway, front of the Restaurant, Souvenir
Stand, Glen Restaurant, Queenston Restaurant and the Gateway at the Training .School were
hung. Special llowers l3eds were planted and the front of the Administration Building was
decorated with flowering plants.
Ciirysanthemums were grown at the Greenhouse in i)reparation for the annual Winter P'air
exhibit, but owing to the outbreak of war, the cancelling of the Winter Fair, and the closing of
the driveway i:)ast the (Treenhouse the public were unable to see them. A display was erected
at the Glen Restaurant and was fully appreciated by the public.
In the Greenhouse a supiily of cut flowers is kept up as far as possible and the decorative
plants and jialnis, which arc used extensively in the Restaurant and Commissioners' Chambers,
are cleaned and reiiotted during the winter months in preparation for the following season. 300
Cyclamen are grown.
The o]ien fall made it possil)le to do much work on the grounds in preparation for the spring
of 1940.
A desire is expressed at all time by the Horticultural Department, to co-operate with all
departments so that the work of the Park System may progress with harmony and advantage to all.
"J. OAKES",
Chief Gardener.
Appointments
Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Large, were named caretakers temporarily of Fort Erie
Pavilion, later Mr. Large was named foreman carpenter, to succeed the late
James Davidson and the post of caretaker at Fort Erie was given to Mr. P.
Hershey, Fort Erie.
Mr. J. McEniry was retired as manager of the Park Restaurant, and Mr.
J. A. Ingram, who had a splendid record of service in wide capacities, was named
to replace him.
Fatality Much Regretted
Charles Anderson, stone cutter, and James Davidson, carpenter foreman,
were in a serious accident on September 20, when the car in which they were
returning to the shops went down the ravine at the intersection of the Niagara
River Parkway and Victoria Avenue. Mr. Davidson suffered a broken back
and internal injuries, resulting in his death on October 21. Air. Anderson
sustained severe internal and external injuries.
The Board authorized payment of two months' salary to the widow of
James Davidson and the question of compensation to Mr. Anderson and Mrs.
Davidson was left to the Workmen's Compensation Board, the Commission
meeting the award made by that body.
Ben Prior, employee at the greenhouse for the past 36 years, was struck
by a car while travelling along the roadway to his home and was unable as a
consequence, to do any heavy work. In recognition of his long, faithful and
efficient work, the Commission authorized that he be kept on the pay roll at $25
a month, to do only light work at the greenhouse when his health permits.
The body of J. J. Shea was recovered from the Whirlpool on June 28.
The body of Mrs. Alaud Cross, missing since December 17, was found on
the river bank near the Whirlpool on February 12.
22 THE REPORT OF No. 41
Fire Protectiox
The question of fire protection for the properties of the Niagara Parks
Commission, stretching from Old Fort Erie on Lake Erie to Fort Mississauga
on Lake Ontario, is a vital one, and has been before the Commission for some
time. As a result of consultation with the Falls View Hose Brigade, it was
decided to pay that volunteer corps for all services rendered, and wnth Stamford
Township, arrangement was reached to pay for all fire fighting service given
within the Township limits, in connection with grass fires.
The major issue was with the City of Niagara Falls and after several meetings
with the City Council representatives, it was decided to pay 8500 a year for
complete service from the city limits on the north to the limits of Oueenston
escarpment, including the W. L. Mackenzie Home, plus a time basis for fires
handled below the escarpment. Service within the city limits will be given as
for any other property so situated.
Another agreement made with the City of Niagara Falls provided for
amicable division between the City and the Commission for snow removal and
summer cleaning of the River Road within the City limits.
Appreciation of Gifts
Your Commission was represented at the joint annual convention of the
American Institute of Park Executives and the American Parks Society, by
Commissioner A. T. Whitaker, who presented a comprehensive report on its
activities as affecting such work as is within the jurisdiction of the Commission.
Especial honour was paid to the Commission in recognition of Canadian parti-
cipation actively in the proceedings of the Convention. As a direct result of a
contact made at this and the previous convention, through Mr. Henry Teuscher,
Superintendent of the Jardin Botanique de ^lontreal, the Commission in 1940
was made the recipient of a very large and comprehensive collection of rare
trees and shrubs which test has shown to be hardy in the Montreal District
and which therefore should do exceptionally well in the Niagara District.
Through the utilization of these for cuttings in future years, it will be possible
to reproduce many of these as specimens or for even more extensive plantings in
the Arboretum of the Commission, at Niagara Glen, which in the years to come
will be an outstanding attraction and which is one of the most recent develop-
ments of the work of the Commission. Opportunity is hereby taken to express
the Commission's thanks to the Jardin Botanique de Montreal, and especially
to Mr. Teuscher for the co-operation so freely given and the generosity shown
in their valuable gift to the Niagara Parks Commission.
The City of Kitchener Board of Parks Management kindly gave to the
Niagara Parks Commission two pair of swans and a letter of appreciation was
forwarded to the Board. L^nfortunatcly. three swans were removed and killed
by marauders, their bodies being found later on. The wailful destruction was
much deplored, but even with a reward of SI, 000 offered, no clue to the miscreant
or miscreants was uncovered.
Dr. D. G. Storms presented the Commission with l,l2l)0 iris plants, and
recognition was made of this splendid example of generosity.
The Fort Erie Council offered to supply water gratis for the toilets and
rest rooms in the Mather Park Gateway and for watering lawns and gardens in
the traffic circle in front of Mather Park at the entrance to the Peace Bridge. A
THE NIAGARA PARKS COMMISSION FOR 1940 23
letter of appreciation for thf co-operation and courtesy shown by the Fort Erie
Council was sent to that body, and also inscribed on the minutes of the Com-
mission.
N'lcw Workshops Planned
During the vear the ser\ ices were engaged of Mr. Norman Mann, to prepare
sketches for a new worksht)p, to be located in an inconspicuous spot, near the
bank at the rear of the Commission properties in (Jueen \'ictoria Park where
they woidd be easy of access, yet not a blot on the landscape, as is the present
heterogeneous collection of wooden structures located midway between the Park
Restaurant and the Administration Building, inconvenient of access and holding
valuable lands which could better be used for extension of the rose, perennial
and dahlia gardens.
The first sketches submitted were considered much too expensive, and they
were revised. War conditions, however, coupled with declining revenue and
increased costs necessitated by guarding the Commission properties, forced laying
of the scheme in abeyance, to be taken up in times more propitious.
The revised sketches provide for a single storey building, all parts accessible
by truck and with separate wall of steel shutter or similar action for blacksmith,
sign painters, carpenters and machinist shops, enabling any of these to be shut
off from the main area at will. The building will be narrower than first proposed
and placed against the bank as close as possible and made also as inconspicuous
as possible. The original plans called for an expenditure of $60,000, the revised
plans §40,000.
Guarding Hydro Properties
In keeping with the policy of guarding essential points after the outbreak
of war, the Commission's permanent and seasonal police, works and horticultural
departments' staflf and extra temporary men were employed from September 1
to September 15 as guards of the Hydro-Electric Power Commission property
adjacent to the Parks Commission property. This guard duty was taken over
by the Ontario Provincial Police after that date, until November 1, when the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police took over the duties. A further change was
made later, when because of the pressure of other duties in the Dominion, the
R.C.M.P. were replaced by the Ontario Provincial Police. Later the Depart-
ment of National Defence took over the guarding of this property, but this did
not take place until the end of May, which does not come within the scope of
this report.
No Through Truckage
Since the Commission Parkway along the Niagara River was not constructed
for the handhng of heavy tractor and trailer or heavy truck traffic, and the
bridges were not built to handle such weights as are now on the roads, the Com-
mission gave instructions to enforce the ban on one of the parkways by through
trucks. Delivery trucks for points along the Parkways are allowed.
Grants For Year
Grants made during the year, as in previous years, were as follows;
Women's Historical Society of Wentworth, 8800 for care and upkeep
of Stoney Creek Battlefield Memorial.
Niagara Falls General Hospital, 8200.

Brief Notes of Interest
Steps were taken during the year to set up regulations covering the use of
display signs along the Niagara Parkwa3's within the jurisdiction of the Com-
mission, with a view to prevention of destruction of the scenic beauty. Pre-
servation of vistas is one of the fundamentals of park properties, and erection
of signs will be discouraged as much as possible.
It is the intention of the Commission that there shall be no exploitation and
as little commercialization as possible of the Commission properties.
Because of Restoration of the William Lyon Mackenzie home at Oueenston,
the Commission undertook to improve the connecting roads with Highway Xo.
8A, portion of Queen Street in front of the building was closed in this connection.

Dear Sir:
Owing to the a]:»sence of the Chairman of this Foundation on important
duties associated with Canada's war effort it has been my privilege during the
latter part of 1940 to assume his responsibilities.
I have great pleasure in placing before you our Annual Report, which
includes a financial statement and also the report of the Director in regard to
the work performed in the various laboratories.
You and your colleagues will be gratified to learn that not only have we
been able to extend our services to Industry and Agriculture, but in addition the
steadily increasing demands of the War Service Departments have been efficiently
met.
The buildings and equipment have been maintained and expanded to meet
the increased demand for service. Our finances are in a healthy condition.
I commend this Report to the attention of Members of the Government
and of the Legislature.
I have the honour to be.
Your obedient servant,
E. G. BAKER,
Vice-Chairman.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OE RESEARCH, 1940
To Edwin G. Baker, Esq.,
Vice-Chairman
Dear Sir:
Before commencing my annual report on the work of the Foundation I
desire to refer briefly to the death of Dr. T. A. Russell, a member of our Advisory
Council and a friend to whom we could always turn for help and advice. Although
the greater part of his life was spent in close association with many industrial
and financial enterprises it was in the agricultural side of our work that he
showed keen and sustained interest. For several years he presided at the meet-
ings of our Advisory Committee on Bang's disease, his own herd being one of
those placed at our disposal for observation and testing. When in good health
he constantly sent to us clippings and references which indicated the extent and
thoroughness of his own reading. Farming to him was not a hobby conducted
along wholly unpractical lines. He put into it all his business training combined
with a passionate love for the land and good stock.
During the past year the investments of the Foundation have been care-
fully reviewed at regular intervals by your Advisory Committee, and their
recommendations carried out.
In spite of the dislocation of many peace-time industries and the transfer
of men and machinery to war production the income of the Foundation received
from industry was higher than in any previous year. This has been supple-
mented by that received from various official bodies. We have endeavoured to
put into effect the policy that the services of the permanent staff of the Foun-
dation should be available to the Departments of Government responsible for
Canada's war effort. W ith the full agreement of the officers of these Depart-
ments we have been reimbursed for the salaries of additional staff and the
materials used in work which has been done at their request.
Before the summer months had passed, the majority of our regular staff
and a relatively larger number of recent additions were engaged on war work.
By the end of the year the various units were running smoothly and efficiently.
There are still variations in the daily demands for these services, but the general
trend continues upward. Our staff is becoming more familiar with service
specifications and the products covered. In a natural way they are becoming
better able to solve the problems of and to help those who are engaged in the
production of war materials. I regret that for the present it is not possible to
refer in detail to what represents by far the major portion of our activity during
the year. Your senior staff is largely composed of men who combine scientific
(7)
THE REPORT OF No. 51
ability with industrial experience and technical knowledge. It is our conviction
that in times like these our first duty is to assist in so far as we are able the
speedy production of what Mr. Churchill has so aptly described as the "tools."
Although it is not possible to refer to them in detail it will not be difficult
for you to imagine some of the problems and difficulties which such a period
brings to a research organization. The atmosphere is not conducive to reflec-
tion, and unbroken attention to a programme of experimental work is not
possible. Due to a proper attitude of mind and heart to the major problem
these conditions have brought contentment rather than disappointment and
restlessness. It has been our privilege to make some contribution to the com-
mon effort, and because of this attitude to work and to one another the change
from a peace to a war-time basis has been possible.
Before closing this introduction to my report I should like to look ahead,
to the days when Canada will once more be at peace and struggling with old
and new problems. It is, I know, your hope that we should endeavour now to
prepare to play our part. What can such a group contribute? Experience
suggests the folly of isolation in thought or action. Looking back over our
comparatively short history one thing stands out clearly, namely, that the
best results have attended our efforts when we have had the privilege of working
with others. This is another way of expressing the fact that we have a con-
tribution to make but rarely a solution. The past year, from this point of view,
has not been a waste of time or effort. One important by-product of our work
has been the opportunity presented of making contacts with those with whom
we ought to work in fields of increasing difficulty and importance. Scores of
industrial units have come to know more about the Foundation. In the near
future we hope to think out ways and means of interesting some at least in the
potential value of long term research projects. The financial problem has
diminished, and if industry looks ahead we should have no difficulty in putting
men to work in order to take advantage of favourable opportunities which exist
to-day.
In one of the late Lord Tweedsmuir's addresses he discussed the problems
associated with the great depression and the methods by which Canada could
successfully overcome them. The following are a few sentences from his address:
"To the younger nations the problem used to be simple. Push the frontier a
little further back — so ran the answer — strike out new lines, develop new wealth;
the wealth is there; it only wants hard work and enterprise to win it. The
situation is changed to-day. In a very real sense there are no frontiers left on
the physical map. They must be sought in the world of the mind and the spirit.
A country may have immense undeveloped natural resources, but these are not
wealth which can be easily and confidently realized; they do not become wealth
until and unless they can be related to the demands and the uses of the rest of
the world."
In these few lines our late Governor-General bridged the gap between the
things of the mind and the spirit and the daily life of ordinary men and women,
between the laboratory and the factory, between science and commerce. If
ONTARIO RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR 1940 9
such a relationship can be established in Canada we need not trouble ourselves
overmuch about the future. This I-'oundation will continue to play a part if we
can preserve within its walls the spirit and the method of science and at the
same time p;raduall\' win for ourselves the respect and confidence of our indus-
trial leaders.
AGRICULTURE
The war is creating new problems for those engaged in agriculture. On
the one hand certain products, notably grains, are accumulating in Canada and
prices are low. Others such as butter, cheese and bacon are in demand for
export as well as domestic consumption. In normal times our farmers would
look for and expect rising prices, but for the time being we are operating under
a controlled economy and one of fixed prices. We are unable to discuss whether
the widespread feeling among farmers that prices for their products are out of
line with labour costs, etc., is justified. We call attention once more, however,
to the problems which groAV out of the great variation in costs of production on
Ontario farms. To some extent these are beyond control and are due to normal
fluctuations in weather conditions. The human element also must be variable.
Apart from these there are the constant variations which grow out of our refusal
to correlate our agricultural economy to the characteristics of soil and climate.
If the cost of milk production varies by over 100 per cent, how is it possible to
fix a price for butter and cheese which will bring a return to all farmers and not
be unfair to the consumer? To this fundamental fact we must turn also for an
explanation of the comparative failure of farmers in Ontario to cooperate suc-
cessfully in buying or selling. Success in other countries is invariably based on
a certain uniformity in skill, conditions on the land and in costs of production.
Within our own Province this has been demonstrated by the growers of tobacco.
When a farming community is not receiving adequate returns for its prod-
ucts over a long period, certain changes take place. The social changes lie
outside the scope of our work. One change Avith which we are concerned is the
slow depletion of the soil, and the destruction of one of our greatest assets;
sometimes a permanent destruction and frequently one which makes recovery
an impossible task for the farmer of average means. Mechanization, and the
effort to reduce costs thereby, is adding to the problem. So long as an abun-
dance of farm manure is returned to the land certain essential elements for
crop growth are usually available in the soil. In the absence of this there is
evidence that such elements as zinc, boron, copper and manganese may fall
below the required concentration. To replace them as constituents of mixed
commercial fertilizers is not easy because w^hilst minute quantities are essential
it is possible to create toxic conditions by too much. Not only is it necessary
to know the requirements of particular crops but the chemical study of our
soils must include a study of the concentration of these essential elements. At
the present time we are studying the areas which show evidence of trace-element
depletion, and also characteristic deficiency diseases, e.g. boron deficiency in the
apple, sugar beet and turnip; copper deficiency in the onion and manganese
deficiency in oats.
10 THE REPORT OF No. 51
Last summer was not only disappointing to persons on holiday. The
unusually large number of cloudy days had a marked influence on the yields
and quality of certain crops. Advantage was taken of these conditions to collect
factual data showing this relationship.
During the winter months work has continued on soil samples collected in
Eastern Ontario. Maps of this area showing the following characteristics:
natural vegetation, depth to bedrock, topography, drainage, stoniness, acidity-
alkalinity, available calcium, phosphorous and potash. These maps will form
the basis of a complete report.
Summer work was devoted chiefly to preliminary studies along similar lines
in Western Ontario. When this area is completed the whole of Southern Ontario
will have been covered and the fundamental data will be available.
The changes in rural population in Southern Ontario up to 1931, the year
of the last census, have been analyzed and recorded.
A commencement has been made of a survey of land values in rural Ontario
and their relationship to soil, climate and economic factors. Experience has
shown that the assessment values do not provide a basis for accurate comparison
between areas. We are exploring the possibilities of figures secured from Regis-
try Offices relating to actual sales.
During the past five years a carefully selected group of refugees from Europe
settled in rural Ontario. It is of great importance not only for the present but
having regard to post-war conditions in Europe to know what the results of this
policy have been. A careful survey of these families has been made and our
report has been helpful to those engaged in immigration and social work. In
general it may be said that these new Canadians have been absorbed, that they
are not a burden on the community and that they are making a real contribution
to rural life.
I
PATHOLOGY AND BACTERIOLOGY
During the summer of 1939, Dr. Hadwen was loaned to the Federal Govern-
ment in order to visit and report upon the condition of reindeer herds in the far
north and also the buff^alo herd and other wild animals at Wainwright. During
the past year he has completed this work which included the examination of the
specimens and other material placed at his disposal. Because of his earlier
contacts with the buffalo herd, and his long experience with problems of this
nature, it was appropriate that he should render this service. Dr. Hadwen
recommended that the buffalo herd and other animals at Wainwright Park
should be destroyed on account of the incidence of tuberculosis and the over-
grazed condition of the Park. This recommendation has been put into effect.
Work on mastitis in cows has continued throughout the year and two
reports have been published in the literature. Our original purpose was to
develop if possible a quick and reliable microscopic method for the diagnosis of
mastitis. This has been accomplished by a detailed study of the cells present in
ONTARIO RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR 1940 11
normal and various types of abnomal milk. This method in the hands of a
trained observer is as reUable as any of the cultured methods or biochemical
tests. In addition it is speedy and should reduce the cost. At the present time
it is virtualK- impossible for the average farmer to keep the records regarding
his herd which maximum efficiency demands.
Evidence has been secured proving that the leucocytes, i.e. cells, set free
and present in milk are capable of destroying the characteristic bacteria which
are associated with mastitis.
A commencement has been made on a study of the pathological changes in
the udder of the cow caused by tuberculosis and other diseases. This is accom-
panied by a badly needed reconsideration of the development, structure and
physiology of the normal udder.
During the late autumn the staff was completely occupied in field studies,
autopsies and laboratory work arising from a widespread outbreak of some
respiratory disease among young pigs. The outbreak was characterized by
chronic coughing, gradual loss in weight and a high mortality rate. Autopsies
showed chronic pneumonia in the majority of cases and the presence of lung
worms and intestinal round worms. Cultural studies of various organs indicated
the presence of a variety of bacilli and cocci. One point in connection with this
outbreak needs special emphasis. In the middle of an area in which this disease
was widespread my colleagues visited a large breeder of hogs and failed to dis-
cover the least sign of trouble. The explanation is quite simple; good sanitation
and proper feeding. A recent article by an authority in the United States
includes the following sentences, "It is becoming more difificult to raise hogs
profitably in the United States. The trouble is parasites including bacteria, all
of which can be controlled where the will to do so exists." Ontario is now facing
increasing competition from the western provinces in the raising of hogs. It is
partly due to outbreaks similar to the one we have been studying that produc-
tion costs are high.
The investigation of the life history of a parasitic fly which attacks and
destroys the larvae of the clothes moth has progressed rapidly and successfully.
To complete our previous observations a study has been made of the influence of
temperature and humidity on the rate of development of the larvae of the para-
site. The influence of temperature is indicated by the following: the average
weight of larvae just before pupation was 8 mg. at 20°C and 4 mg. at 27°C
respectively. Other interesting facts concerning the parasite are as follows. Only
females exist and the eggs are produced by parthenogenetic fertilization. Adults
are attracted by bright lights, and may be kept alive for several weeks in the
laboratory on a diet of dilute honey. More than one egg may be deposited in
the moth larvae but only one reaches maturity. The life cycle is complete in
approximately 26 days at 27°C and in several months at 20°C.
If the parasite is to be put to work destroying clothes moth larvae, and
ultimately the moth population, it will be necessary to use some other method
for producing large numbers. There is a possibility that other hosts exist, and
a search is being made for one which is more easily handled than the clothes
1
12 THE REPORT OF No. 51
moth. This research has uncovered various other problems related to the use
of parasites for the destruction of pests, and also the nature of the physiological
relationship between the host and the parasite, e.g. what is the substance on
which the parasite feeds, why does only one egg develop?
This group of workers has given valuable assistance to their colleagues in
the industrial laboratories in connection with problems involving insects, bac-
teria, etc., e.g. moth-proofing tests, phenol coefficients of insecticides, insect pests
in foodstuffs. In addition, a number of specimens from the Department of
Game and F"isheries and the Royal Ontario Museum of Zoology have been
examined and reported upon.
TEXTILES
The work of this Department continues to expand, especially in regard to
its contacts with the various branches of the textile industries, mills, wholesale
houses, retailers and manufacturers agents. During the past two years approxi-
mately 100 new names have been added to the list of firms for which work has
been undertaken. The field of technology covered is very large, there is great
variety in the questions and problems submitted and it is a tribute to the staff
that whilst progress in this section has been maintained there has been no cur-
tailment of work relating to more fundamental problems.
A considerable proportion of the testing work in 1940 has been in connection
with fabrics and other materials manufactured for war supplies, and the
requests have come chiefly from the manufacturers and not official bodies.
Uniform cloths of different types of material and weights, silk parachute fabric,
wool linings, wool and cotton underwear material, whip-cord, khaki gloves,
parachute cords and harness, silk powder bags are some of the materials handled.
By contributing to the production of large quantities of these materials to rigid
specifications the Department has made a useful contribution to our war effort.
Tests include tensile strength, fastness to light, washing and perspiration tests,
resistance to attack by mildew, bursting strength, freedom from traces of certain
metallic impurities, structure and percentage composition in terms of various
raw materials.
Another sign of the closer relationship between the manufacturer and these
laboratories is the increase in the number of plant visits made at the request of
those in control. The fact that we are able to render some service should not
prevent a recognition of their importance to us in providing most valuable prac-
tical experience.
The war is creating problems of a somewhat different character in connec-
tion with peace-time requirements. Pressure on existing supplies of certain raw
materials is creating a need for substitutes which possess as many as possible of
the essential properties of the originals. The question of certain imported
dyestuffs and other chemicals may become more serious in the near future.
There has been in addition the usual quota of interesting and sometimes
baffling short-term investigations associated with failure to produce the required
fabric or other material.
ONTARK; research I'OUNDATION for 1940 13
To enable this type of work to be performed efficiently and with the least
interruption of other work we are slowly adding to the equipment of the Depart-
ment. The following additions have been made during the past year:
(a) Daylight lamps for the examination of coloured materials.
(b) A constant rate-of-loading yarn strength tester.
(,c) A three-unit apparatus for agitating fabrics in laundering and dry-
cleaning solutions. These tests can now be carried out in larger numbers and
under rigidly controlled conditions.
We have now completed our ninth year of cooperative work with Courtaulds
(Canada) Ltd. and other firms associated with the Quality Control Plan. It
has grown from a small group interested in knitted rayon garments until now
many fields of merchandise are covered. It is gratifying to report that 1940 was
again a record year. This has naturally brought with it a heavier load of control
work and at the same time created new and interesting problems. Towards the
close of the >ear the work and requirements of this section were carefully
reviewed by representatives of Courtaulds and the Foundation. It is a pleasure
to record that as a result of this conference the budget was considerably enlarged
and in the coming year additional staff will be available. These changes will
make it possible to devote more time to outside contacts and to a study of
problems uncovered by the routine administration of the Plan.
Our annual survey of knitted garments made according to the Plan and
sold across Canada indicates a gratifying conformity to the specifications agreed
upon.
At the close of the year eighteen manufacturers of fabrics and about eighty
manufacturers of garments were cooperating in the Plan. Several of the speci-
fications relating to important groups of fabrics, e.g. drapery materials, have
been revised. If our specifications are to fulfil their purpose and give satisfaction
to the manufacturer and the consumer they must involve tests which predict
with the maximum of accuracy the behaviour of the material under normal
wearing conditions. Each year more information is available on which to base
a critical examination of our methods, and there is every reason to believe that
the underlying conception of the Plan will gradually influence other branches
of industry. One of the problems which requires more than technical experience
is that of deciding from time to time how to effect a compromise between the
claims of serviceability and those of fashion. A careful analysis of consumer
complaints assists in our efforts to maintain the highest possible standards.
During the past year these have been remarkably few in number and in only one
case was it found necessary to change our standards or methods of testing.
The following problems arising from the Plan have been given more pro-
longed attention and are still under consideration:
(a) The relationship between seam construction and serviceability.
(b) Effects of different finishing processes on the strength of dress fabrics.
14 THE REPORT OF No. 51
(c) A comparative study of length of life of wool socks and wool plus
rayon socks.
(d) Influence of time and other factors on the extensibility of drapery
fabrics.
The research work carried on during the previous year has been continued.
In my last report I referred to the work in progress relating to the physical and
structural characteristics of silk fibres. Using the same technique our work on
the response of silk to water vapour over a range of relative humidities and
pressures has been extended to cover a number of organic substances including
alcohols, ethers and ketones. Observations have been made on the physical
properties of fibres in various stages of moisture absorption with particular
reference to their elasticity and plasticity. The data secured has provided a
mathematical basis upon which to predict the behaviour of filaments under con-
ditions of stress varying with time. The work has contributed to an interpre-
tation of load-extension curves obtained by other workers who have applied a
uniform stress on the filaments.
The study of fibres in relation to alcohol and other vapours is based on
their chemical characteristics which are similar to those of water. It has been
found that alcohols of low molecular weight are readily absorbed and given up
by silk fibres in response to changes in the atmosphere. Under a high vacuum
all the absorbed alcohol cannot be removed, but the "residue" alcohol can be
removed by exposure to a low partial pressure of water vapour or by raising the
temperature.
During this period of rapid development in textile technology it is appro-
priate that we should endeavour to make some contribution to our knowledge
of the structure and properties of a fibre such as silk. The methods and con-
clusions will greatly facilitate future studies of other materials.
The investigation of the principles of "scouring," i.e. the removal of oils
from semi-processed textile materials, has continued. During the past year a
successful attempt has been made to determine the necessary conditions in the
scouring bath for the removal of natural oils, e.g. olive oil, and the type of parafiin
oil which is used to some extent in the textile trades. The two types of oil differ
fundamentally in their chemical composition and both theory and specimen
suggest that their successful removal must take this fact into account. At the
present time the price of vegetable oils is rising due to war conditions, and
considerable economy in processing costs would be accomplished if mineral oils
could be substituted. The work this year has produced encouraging results, and
in the near future plant scale tests are contemplated. This investigation has
been partially supported by a grant received from Imperial Oil Limited.
During the year Dr. Goodings has served on the Research Committee of
the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colourists, and Mr. Staples
on committees of the Textile Section of the American Society for Testing Mate-
rials. These contacts are of the greatest vaUu^ both to the Foundation and to the
textile industries of Canada.
i
ONTARIO RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR 1940 15
ENGINEFRING AND MRTALLrRGY
My previous reference to the effects of the war on the character of the work
performed in the laboratories appHes particularly to this Division. Our own
plans have been put aside whenever it was felt that they would interfere with
the performance of duties associated with war effort. A reasonable continuity
of work is essential if success in research is to be accomplished, and this has
proved to be quite impossible during the past year. This is not to say that no
effort has been made to keep research projects alive or that no progress has been
made.
Another contributing factor to this condition has been that the staff has
grown considerably in numbers by the addition of young and inexperienced
workers. At the same time junior members of the scientific staff and technical
assistants have left the Foundation, often with the assistance of my senior
colleagues, to accept opportunities in industry. In spite of these difficulties an
expanding organization has been given a sound technical training and imbued
with a spirit of loyalty and cooperative effort.
There is another time-consuming and in a sense disruptive type of work
which brings no obvious or immediate return to the Foundation. I refer to the
many hours per week spent in discussion with visitors. The war has increased
this demand upon the working hours of the staff very considerably. I am con-
fident that it represents a definite contribution to industry which is appreciated.
During the year fifty-nine investigations have been performed for private
companies and for various government departments. Three companies paid to
the Department an annual fee for consulting service.
The physical testing laboratory has been more fully occupied than in any
previous year, the number of tests being about six times those performed in
1939. With the development of aircraft production in Canada and other new
types of industrial production the variety as well as the volume of work has
greatly increased.
Shortly before the war commenced we began to improve the facilities in
the Foundation for the heat-treatment of metal parts. In addition to providing
opportunities for research we had reason to believe that industry would take
advantage of these facilities for the treatment of relatively small but expensive
castings, etc. The experience of the past year has more than justified the
expense and effort involved. Ninety firms have sent material in for treatment,
some of them at regular intervals. Others have used the furnace room here to
great advantage in order to speed up other work whilst their own furnaces were
being installed.
Early in the year the preliminary steps had been taken to create facilities for
the testing of gauges to be used by industrial and government inspectors. The
extent to which this work has increased is indicated by the fact that in December
we tested as many gauges as in the first six months of the year. During the
year the staff engaged on this important work has increased from 2 to 15. I
feel that the senior members of the staff are to be commended for their work in
16 THE REPORT OF No. 51
training this group and for the efficient system of records which they have grad-
ually instituted. During this period of expansion and training the output of
gauges per man-hour has doubled. We are indebted to officers of the Depart-
ments of the Inspector General, the Ministry of Munitions and Supply and the
National Research Council for advice and assistance.
The machine shop has continued to render valuable service to this depart-
ment in connection with the gauge and physical testing laboratories. It has
also contributed considerably to the successful operation of all Departments by
designing and constructing experimental apparatus and testing equipment.
The following research projects have been pursued during the past year:
(a) A study of the influence of the cross sectional area of a test-piece on
the fatigue strength as measured by the Avery machine. Our machine has been
gradually modified and improved in design. The experimental side has suffered
considerably from interruptions.
(b) The resistance of various alloys to abrasion. Improvements in our
experimental ball-mill have been made allowing for very close control of the
atmosphere within the mill. A report on the experimental work of the past
three years will shortly be ready for publication.
(c) A member of the staff completed a thesis dealing with the solubility
of carbon in alloys of iron and tungsten and was granted the degree of M.A.Sc.
by the University of Toronto.
(d) Progress has been made on a study of the malleability of a white
cast iron in relation to variations in chemical composition.
Mr. Tasker continues his membership of the Research Coniniittee of the
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and more recently was
elected to the Council of the Society. Mr. Ellis continues to maintain our
contacts with the Ontario Chapters of the American Society for Metals and the
American Foundrymen's Association.
Shortly before the close of the year Mr. Ellis received word of the award
to him of a Plummcr medal by the Engineering Institute of Canada. It is
appropriate that this distinction should be conferred on him during the period
in which he is rendering unremitting and distinguished service to the Govern-
ment and to industry.
CHEMISTRY
Early in the year the preliminary steps had been taken to equip two sections
of this Division with apparatus and personnel to carry out metallurgical and
organic analyses. The extent to which the work on behalf of Go\'ernment has
increased will be made clear by stating that in January 0 samples were sub-
mitted and in December approximately 217 were received. During the year we
estimate that about 18,500 determinations were made, or 10 times the number
in the pre\'ious year. The growth has not been steady or uniform over the
entire field of technology invoked. Sharp peaks have occurred first in one
ONTARIO RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR 1940 17
section and tlu-n in tlu' otluT. Pressure on our staff and equipment in connec-
tion with a certain type of material has persisted for a time and suddenly the
demand for this particular service has ceased. Such conditions are inevitable
having regard to the supreme importance of the time factor in our war effort as
a whole. The impatience and natural criticism which are occasionally voiced
in connection with apparent delays in production lose some of their point when
we remember that the industrialists and technical personnel of Canada were
suddenK- confronted with thousands of specifications, highly specialized in char-
acter and demanding extreme accuracy. One of the gratifying experiences of the
past year has been to see the number of firms in Canada which have attained
splendid records as shown by inspection results. It is equally gratifying to be
able to report that the figures submitted by the staff have been rarely challenged
by the manufacturers. This is all the more ceditable to my colleagues if we
remember that a large proportion of the analytical procedures involved are not
commonly in use and some have had to be developed in our own laboratories.
For short periods, practicall\' the entire staff of the Division and men
drafted from others have been concentrated on this work in order to avoid
delays in manufacturing plants.
Short term investigations carried out in the Division on behalf of manu-
facturers and others show an increase over the previous year of 20 per cent.
Many of these were directly associated wath war supplies. Others arise from
the higher cost or complete absence of commodities normally used by various
industries in Canada. The following list of materials involved in the first 10 of
the 180 such investigations will indicate the variety of problems submitted to
this Division: glue, veneered furniture, w'ire screening, ozonized eucalyptus oil,
cleansing tissue, water softening agent, aluminum panels, rotogravure emulsion,
natural gas, oil sludge.
In addition to these the Division has received financial support from the
following companies in the carrying out of longer term and more important
investigations: Consumers' Gas Company, Toronto, Imperial Oil Ltd., Toronto,
\Vm. Wrigley Jr. Company Ltd., Toronto and Mallinckrodt Chemical Works
Ltd. of Canada, Montreal. It is this side of our work which must be extended
and supported by the industrialists of the Province if the potential value of the
Foundation is to be realized. The record of the past year amply proves this
statement. New processes are being developed, older ones are being modified
to give greater efficiency and new products are being manufactured.
BIOCHEMISTRY
In cooperation with the National Research Council a revision was under-
taken of existing Canadian specifications for boots to be supplied to the Army,
Navy and Air Force. Tentative specifications were submitted to the Department
of National Defence, and during a period of several months samples of leather
used by contractors were tested by physical and chemical methods. Similar
tests have been performed on behalf of the Inspector General's Department.
18 THE REPORT OF No. 51
Research work in the leather laboratory has been chiefly concerned with
further improvements in the method for intermediate alum and chrome retan-
nage of hea\y leathers. A critical comparison has been made of leather pre-
pared by these methods and standard vegetable-tanned leather. A pilot scale
investigation of rocker tan yard operation was made in order to effect the neces-
sary changes in standard practice to fit in with the needs of the proposed new
process.
Work has been in progress throughout the year on methods for the produc-
tion of organic acids by fermentation.
In continuation of the work supported by the Beamish Sugar Refineries
laboratory research has been focussed on the production of pure lactic acid for
edible and medicinal purposes. The production of commercial lactic acid on a
plant scale is now in successful operation.
During the past ten years tremendous strides have been made in our knowl-
edge of both the physiology and the chemistry of those important elements in
our diet which are called vitamins. Each year adds to the number of those
which can be either isolated from natural products or synthesized from simple
chemicals in the laboratory. The rapid growth of those industries based on
this knowledge indicates a growing recognition of its importance by the general
public. In many countries state action is being taken to compel the introduction
or retention of certain vitamins in staple foods, such as bread, and in addition
stringent regulations are being enforced to control the sale of both food and
pharmaceutical preparations.
We have endeavoured to make some contribution to these developments in
Canada by placing at the disposal of manufacturers trained personnel and
equipment to perform vitamin determinations on their behalf. During this
period of rapid development this has involved a painstaking survey of numerous
methods which have been recommended in the literature. We have been espe-
cially concerned to verify the new chemical methods which are more rapid and
therefore cheaper and more suited to the work of a control laboratory. Not long
ago it required 3 months to make an accurate measure of the Bi vitamin com-
plex by growth tests using white rats. Today the same information can be
made available in 48 hours.
For several months we carried out biological assays of materials containing
vitamin K, the constituent in blood which is anti-haemorrhagic. So far our
results have not given us sufficient confidence to undertake any outside work
involving the assay of commercial products. We suspect that the difficulty is
associated with our basal diet and not in faulty technique.
Our facilities for determining the vitamin D content of foods have been
enlarged during the year. The laboratory has been designated as one of the
official testing laboratories by the Dominion Department of Agriculture which
is endeavouring to set and control standards under the Feeding Stuffs Act.
These regulations apply to vitamin A and vitamin I). Collaborative work has
been undertaken with other laboratories to dctrmiine the effects of certain
methods of procedure on the final assay figure.
I
ONTARIO RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR 1940 19
For milk and other products intended for human consumption the rat-
curative method is used for measuring the D content. Our laboratory has not
only carried out commercial assays successfully, but by experimental work
considerabh- improved our technique giving us much greater consistency and
reliability in this important field.
After a careful study of the various chemical methods which have been
recommended for the determination of Bi we have in recent weeks concentrated
our efforts on the fermentation method. Small additions of Bi to a yeast sus-
pension in sugar solution cause quantitative increases in the production of gas.
The volumes of gas produced are measured accurately and we have been able
to obtain consistent and sufficiently accurate results. Before undertaking out-
side assay work this procedure was checked by the rat-growth method. If the
expected development of B-containing bread takes place this method should be
of great assistance in control work either in flour or loaves. The Department is
collaborating with a distinguished group of scientific men in the United States
who are working together to develop cheap, rapid and reliable methods for
these determinations.
A bacteriological method for the estimation of riboflavin has been slightly
modified and standardized. It is now being used successfully in the analysis of
human and animal foods.
To summarize: after careful checking and investigation of numerous
methods this Department is now in a position to perform accurately and eco-
nomically biological or chemical assays of vitamins A, C, D (rat and chick), Bj
constituents and riboflavin.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
Faithfully yours,
H. B. SPEAKMAN,
Director,

Minister.

Honourable Harry Corwin Nixon,
Provincial Secretary of Ontario.
Sir : —
Every year it is necessary for Children's Aid Societies, Big Brothers, Big
Sisters, Service Clubs, Sundays Schools, school teachers, courts, police, friends
and relatives, and many others to assist parents whose children are behaviour
problems. The great majority of these problem children are successfully adjusted
by the eflForts of the local citizens and officials. The failures are those who are
sent to our Training Schools. For the year ended March 31st, 1941 there were
511, an increase of 15% over the previous year's total of 444.
The attached reports of the Advisory Board and the Superintendents reveal
to some extent the thorough, careful effort which is made by trained minds of con-
scientious, self-sacrificing men and women to salvage this human material. We
are proud that in this province we have those who give such faithful service. To
help some faltering child to find his way is one of the noblest of human endeavours.
In mentality these boys and girls range from superior intelligence to morons.
They come from well-to-do comfortable homes, and from places not worthy to be
called homes. They come from the country, from the city and from places in the
far north. In academic education they vary from near illiteracy to high school.
In chronological age from ten to sixteen, mentally younger, but in evil knowledge
some of them are old — so old.
Above all other things they have missed real home life and the careful guid-
ance of kind, wise parents.
Obviously, the proper programme in the Training Schools must be just as
varied and wide as the needs of these children. They have been developed accord-
ingly and staffed with men and women who have a keen appreciation of the
requirements, combined with a liberal supply of human kindness. These men and
women, of course, have their deep disappointments, but more often they have the
deep satisfaction of seeing their wards growing into useful, successful men and
women. The fine patriotism of the graduates is proved by the large enlistments to
the war services. These Training Schools are operating at a high degree of
efficiency.
Since this war started juvenile delinquency in some of the large English cities
has increased fifty percent or more. This is not surprising to trained social service
workers, who appreciate the inevitable results of broken home life. In Ontario, the
absence of fathers, and the temptations because of war conditions are partly respon-
sible for the fifteen percent increase in the number of children sent to Training
Schools this past year. But in other years there were some who should have been
sent, but went instead to the Reformatory. A better appreciation of the good work
of the Schools is spreading. They are therefore being used more when necessary,
and the children are being sent while still at a younger, more susceptible age.
The Schools at Bowmanville and Alfred are well provided with land, buildings
and equipment. St. John's School building is old and not fireproof. A new suitable
[5]
REPORT OF No. 51
building, or buildings, to replace it should be erected elsewhere on ample acreage.
St. Mary's new School on Dufferin Street outside Toronto is almost ready for use.
The buildings of the Gait School are new, very modern and suitable, and the acreage
is adequate, but there the school population has increased away beyond capacity.
Foster home placement has been used to the fullest extent, even to the danger point.
It is foolish to place a problem girl outside the School until proper character and
habits have been sufficiently developed. Very serious consideration should be given
to enlarge present accommodation.
Again I wish to commend the innumerable citizens and officials who have so
ably assisted in the work of these Schools during the past year, and to thank you
and all our department officials for perfect co-operation.

Deputy Provincial Secretary.
ONTARIO TRAINING SCHOOLS
REPORT OF
TRAINING SCHOOLS ADVISORY BOARD
To The Honol'Rable 1 1. C. Nixox,
Provincial Sccrctarx.
Sir: —
We have the honour to present the tenth annual report of the Training
Schools Advisory Board for the year ending March 31st, 1941.
During the year we have held 51 meetings at which 4,283 cases were presented.
The record of each boy and girl in the Schools, or on parole under the supervision
of the Schools, is reviewed every four months and more frequently when special
attention is required.
The Training Schools of the Province are not penal institutions and should
be looked upon as training, re-adjusting and educational in their function.
Upon entering a Training School each pupil is given a thorough physical
examination, including tests for diphtheria, scarlet fever, and vaccination against
smallpox. A tuberculin test is also given, and if this is positive it is followed by
periodical x-ray examination of the chest. Mental examinations are given in each
case, and these prove of great value in determining specific requirements in the
training and education of the individual pupil.
The academic and vocational work carried on in the Schools is subject to
regular inspections of the Department of Education. The reports presented by the
inspectors show that the work in our Schools is conducted strictly according to
the regulations of the Department of Education, and proves to be fully up to the
standards prevailing in the Public and Separate Schools of the Province.
The policy of early return to the community, as recommended from the
sur\'ey of pupils made last year has been pursued and an increasing number of
placements are made at an earlier age than formerly.
The Board repeats its opinion expressed in former years, that there is a
definite need for an institution for delinquent defectives. These children are utter
misfits in our Training Schools and the Board does not approve of admitting them
in any instance, but in some cases they are committed by the court when nothing
can be done, except to attempt to have them transferred to the Ontario Hospital
School, Orillia.
It is obviouslv difficult to maintain a proper training programme when the
mental rating of the children ranges from 40 I.Q. to 120 I.Q. and it is felt that
the Schools should be relieved of the defective group.
During the year 16% of the new pupils received in the Training Schools were
mental defectives, and at the close of the year a total of 17% of all pupils in
residence were mental defectives.
The Board believes that cases of severe chronic illness, such as incurable
diabetes should not be admitted or committed to the Training Schools, owing to
the specific difficulties in the care required by such cases.
The Board follows the policy of paroling pupils from the Schools as soon
as possible, and recommends that not more than one ward of a Training School
shall be placed in any one home at one time.
It is understood that a child goes to a Training School because of failure in
social adjustment and as soon as it is beheved that he can take his place in the com-
8 REPORT OF No. 51
niunity it is advisable to continue education and work there, rather than have him
remain in the School. The value of home life is stressed, and if the child's own
home is unsuitable then every effort is made to find a desirable foster home at the
earliest possible moment. In order to secure a good adjustment, it may even be
that more than one foster home has to be tried.
Nine per cent, of those at present in the Training Schools are children under
the age of twelve, and our efforts to return them to some form of normal family
life as soon as feasible will be continued.
Older boys and girls who may not return home have positions secured for
them, thus enabling them to become self-supporting. This requires constant super-
vision by the Placement Officers, and in many instances continual contact is neces-
sary. Reports from these Officers must be approved by the School Superin-
tendent and submitted to the Board to ascertain that such placements continue
to be satisfactory.
Owing to present conditions and the scarcity of help, there is considerable
demand for our boys and girls, and as a consequence a goodly number have been
placed in carefully selected homes, factories and plants. Sanction was given at a
recent board meeting in which four boys and one girl were placed in munition
plants, earning from $2.00 to $4.00 per day. There is a recent case where a sixteen
year old lad was placed at wages of $72.00 per month and board, out of which
he is sending his mother $50.00 per month. Another lad of sixteen paroled to his
own home recently is earning $30.00 per week. The Superintendents of the Train-
ing Schools have been requested to encourage every boy and girl to save a portion
of their wages.
In previous reports the Board has recommended that serious consideration
be given to the possibilities of establishing more Juvenile Courts throughout the
Province, and we again wish to draw attention to this matter. In the cities where
Juvenile Courts are established, the co-operation of voluntary social agencies is of
great help. There have been cases of boys and girls who were finally committed
at fourteen and fifteen years of age, whose delinquency record would have justified
them being sent to the Training School earlier than their eventual commitment,
and would probably have resulted in a much earlier re-adjustment.
The rehabilitation of Indian boys and girls continues to be a problem. As it
is considered that Indian juvenile delinquents should receive training in Indian
Schools, your Board again recommends that suitable arrangements be made
between the Provincial and Dominion Governments to permit all Indian delin-
quents to be transferred from the Provincial to the Dominion authority.
The Board is pleased to know that a new school with increased accommoda-
tion and more extensive premises is being erected by St. Mary's Training School.
The Board regrets that Mrs. H. P. Plumptre, who had been an active member
of the Advisory Board since its inception, found it necessary last winter to resign
owing to the pressure of Red Cross war work. To fill the vacancies caused by
the resignations of Mr. C. L. Burton, former chairman, and Mrs. Plumptre, two
new members were appointed, — Mrs. William West and Mr. Charles D. Gordon.

ONTARIO TRAINING SCHOOLS
REPORT OF THE ONTARIO
TRAINING SCHOOL FOR GIRLS. GALT, ONTARIO
April 1, 1940 to March 31, 1941
During the past year, one hundred and six new girls have entered the School.
Comparison with the three preceding years shows a consistent increase of approxi-
mately twenty admissions a year. Four small dormitories have been constructed in
the cottages to help cope with this increasing population.
Academic
The junior classroom is made up of the public school grades up to and includ-
ing grade VII. There has been an average of thirty girls a month in this room
during the past year. As a majority of these girls fall in the borderline and dull
normal intelligence groups, many of their activities are of an auxiliary class nature.
Girls who have been school problems before their admission settle happily into
the congenial atmosphere of this group.
Vocational Training
The older girls who are preparing to return to the community as wage-
earners, receive training in one of three vocational groups : the kitchen group,
the power-operating group, or the laundry group. Each girl's interests and apti-
tudes are considered before she is allotted to a group.
There is a kitchen group in each cottage under the supervision of the dietitian.
These girls receive practical training in the preparation and care of food, and
every well-cooked meal enjoyed by girls and staff is a source of satisfaction and
pride to them.
This year the major project of the power-operating group has been the making
of brightly-coloured playsuits for each girl.
The girls in the laundry do the personal laundry and some of the household
linen for the School. The quiet routine in the laundry appears to have a therapeutic
effect on some of the more unstable girls. Many who enter the group rather re-
luctantly become enthusiastic workers.
During the year ten girls, two at a time, were employed in caring for the
chickens. This work requires initiative and a sense of responsibility, and is par-
ticularly suited to the type of girl found occasionally in every group : the energetic,
outdoor girl who finds housework exceedingly boring during adolescence.
Another coveted position is that of dental assistant. This girl is responsible
for the care of the dentist's office and equipment, and helps the dentist while he is
at the School.
Extra-Curricular Activities
Every girl spends certain periods each w^eek in household science, sewing,
singing, and gymnasium classes in addition to her regular group or school activities.
New gymnasium equipment installed this year has greatly stimulated the
interest in physical education. Each girl has ample healthful exercise in the
regular periods and in group games. During the spring and summer months, the
girls swim twice a week in the Y.M.C.A. pool in Gait.
Their evenings are spent in general cottage activities or hobby groups. The
aim is to develop healthy, leisure-time habits, which may be valuable to the girl

14 REPORT OF No. 51
REPORT OF THE ONTARIO
TRAINING SCHOOL FOR BOYS, BOWMANVILLE
April 1, 1940— March 31, 1941
The movement of population remained practically the same as the previous
year. The smaller number in residence during; the Fall season permitted the
closing of one cottage long enough to paint the interiors of the other four cottages.
The closed cottage served as a "spare".
The usual regular inspections have been carried out respecting buildings and
equipment, safety, water and milk, power plant, dairy herd, academic and voca-
tional education.
Many of our ex-pupils are in the armed forces. The list has steadily grown
and now numbers one hundred.
Academic Department
The academic staff's personnel was changed during the year. Two members
who obtained leave of absence were replaced.
The allotment of classes was altered slightly. The new arrangement called for
each teacher to have at least two grades to teach. The course of study was fol-
lowed closely. Visits of inspection were paid by the local inspector who reported
encouragingly on the work done in this department.
During the year the average number of pupils in the different grades was as
follows :
Auxiliary 16
Primer 1
Grade 1 1
Grade 2 5
Grade 3 11
Grade 4 14
Grade 5 28
Grade 6 29
Grade 7 35
Grade 8 23
Grade 9 14
Grade 10 3
Grade 11 2
The average number of boys attending school the full day was 45.
The Entrance results were again encouraging. Thirty-one candidates of
thirty-five writing, received certificates. The four failures included only one who
had attended the School any length of time. The most successful Summer School
yet held was that of last Summer. This was arranged for the smaller boys not
included in vocational work. The general programme for this was from
8:45 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. five days a week and 8:45 a.m. to 11:45
a.m. on Saturdays. Each morning was spent in the classroom and each
afternoon, weather permitting, found the spot which is commonly known as "The
Cedars" an animated scene until it was time to go "up the creek" for a swim. The
academic staff, with the addition of a counsellor, conducted the Summer School.
ONTARIO TRAINING SCHOOLS 15
Health, art in all its branches. Kiijj;lish. music, social studies and nature study were
dealt with theoretically in the mornings and practically in the afternoons. Special
programmes including contests and treasure hunts were held frequently.
As in former years several entries were made in the Durham County Music
Festival held in Bowmanville. Besides receiving very heljiful and complimentary
remarks from the adjudicator, those competing were successful in being awarded
bronze medals in classes for unchanged voices, tenor, baritone, and 'teen age. A
silver medal was awarded in the liass section and the school placed first in the duet
for unchanged voices competing in a field of forty entries.
As an outside teacher of instrumental music was not available this year, the
work was ably continued by two members of our academic staff. Forty-eight boys
received training in the rudiments of music and the playing of band instruments
and violins. Interest was high and a large waiting list supplied new pupils to
replace those sent out on placement.
]\Ionthly A-ariety programmes were held during the Winter. These uncovered
the usual amount of talent. A solo festival to find voices suitable for festival work
took place in the auditorium.
Talks on current events were given by senior bo}-s during the }'ear at the
daily chapel service.
During the past year there has been an increase in the circulation of library
books to the several cottages. A greater stimulus for reading has apparently been
created. Groups of twenty-four books are sent weekly to the cottages. Many
books were repaired. During the year 49 books valued at $22.24 were added to the
library. The total number of books now in the library is 2,779.
PHYSICAL TRAINING DEPARTMENT
Over a period of years we have been steadily building up a programme in
physical education to meet the special requirements of our special kind of school.
Instruction and organization are so applied that each boy finds learning and com-
petition at that level which is best suited to his capabilities. As he progresses there
are definite steps which provide an ever increasing incentive.
It should be known that most boys come to us totally lacking normal play
background. So we start with the earliest rudiments. The boy is taught to stand
correctly and to walk smartly. Through marching exercises, general calisthenics,
and a thorough training in elementary skills, the boy develops muscular control,
poise, rhythm, timing, and self assurance.
Two periods of one hour and fifteen minutes each are devoted to physical
training every morning and afternoon. There is a further period which is purely
recreational each day after school hours.
During the summer months, evenings are turned over entirely to organized
sports, as are Saturday afternoons and holidays throughout the year.
At no time are we without some organized league sport. Leagues are formed
in various major and minor series to accommodate all stages of development.
Some time ago we adopted a form of draft, whereby any team may put in a
claim for a player in a league of lower classification. Newly admitted boys are
claimed in this manner. Results have been good and the draft is now a permanent
fixture. Draft forms, as illustrated below, are readily obtainable and must be
properly filled in before any claim is recognized.
16 REPORT OF No. 51
Draft Form
Player's Name Claimed by
League From League
To replace (Released, Graduated, Claimed, Ineligible).
(Signed)
Each team may claim one player each week. Teams with poorest records
have first choice when two or more claims are entered for the same player.
Players w^ho improve earn promotion. Players are kept on their toes due to the
possibility of demotion. Losing teams strengthen and interest is maintained.
Team captains develop executive ability. Minor series games are "scouted" and
interest increased both ways.
Competition against outside teams is never stressed since our programme
allows no time for the special coaching and practicing of representative teams.
Yet when teams are picked for the occasional game they invariably do well. Eight
games of basketball were played against the Bowmanville High School ; our team
winning four and losing a like number. In hockey two games were played, again
with the local high school team. We lost one and tied the other.
The Leaders' Corps meets one night weekly and offers a course of advanced
training, largely in heavy apparatus, for boys who apply themselves particularly
well to the work and who show certain qualities of leadership. This is one organi-
zation that we would not care to do without. The leaders exert a steadying in-
fluence throughout the School. They are the ones who set the pace and by their
general attitude promote enthusiasm among the entire group. The average strength
of the Leaders' Corps is thirty boys. There are frequent changes in personnel as
boys leave the School and others come up through the ranks to take their place.
A major project last Summer was the construction of permanent wings at the
dam. This dam provides excellent facilities for outdoor swimming in the creek
that flows through the School property.
Instruction in the Gymnasium.
The following work was covered in the regular periods of instruction : march-
ing tactics, marching exercises stressing posture, poise, rhythm, timing, relaxation,
Danish fundamental and corrective exercise, apparatus work on the horizontal
bar, parallel bars, side horse, long horse, mats, ropes, skill drills, playing rules,
system of play in hockey, basketball, football, rugby, touchball, softball, volleyball,
track and field athletics and stunts and group games.
Instruction in the Szvininiing Pool.
Instruction and drills in leg stroke, arm stroke, breathing, timing, rhythm,
relaxation, racing start, racing turns, in the following strokes: (a) Crawl (b)
Back (c) Breast (d) instruction and training in springboard diving (e) diving to
recover weighted, submerged object (f) general training for muscular develop-
ment and stamina.

AGRICULTURAL REPORT
General Farm Conditions.
There was sufficient rainfall throughout the season to produce good crops on
the School Farm.
Some of the hay was injured at harvesting time by too much rain but plenty
of good hay was harvested and stored to supply all our requirements.
The grain crop generally was of good quality and well up to the average in
yield.
Corn, mangels, turnips and all garden crops were exceptionally good.
Two shipments of surplus potatoes and vegetables were made to the Girls'
School at Gait.
Practical Agriculture.
Farm Apprentices.
One hundred and twenty-nine boys were assigned to the farm for training
during the year.
These boys were all taught farm work by actually doing it from day to day.
They were divided into three groups each group working with an experienced
instructor. The boys on the groups were changed monthly so that they would
all get experience in livestock, dairy and poultry work as well as garden and field
work.
By this method they learn to do all the seasonal jobs arising on the farm from
month to month and at the end of their stay here, they have become trained and
useful farm help.
m REPORT OF No. 51
The boys are taught to milk, care for livestock and poultry, harness, hitch and
drive horses, work with farm implements and generally get a good working know-
ledge of practical every day farm work.
They also hoe, weed and work in the garden, help spray the orchard and help
plant and care for the fruit and vegetable gardens.
Sixty-three boys were placed out on farms in the Province during the year
on wage contracts. In addition to these, there were quite a number of junior boys
placed in farm boarding homes to attend school. These boys with some farm train-
ing here were useful chore boys.
Vocational AgricnUurc.
The boys in the Entrance Class had one period a week during Fall and Spring
and two periods in the Winter in the classroom study of the following subjects :
Livestock.
Breeds and breed characteristics.
Care and management of farm stock and poultry.

The herd is fully accredited and hlood tested and numbers twenty-four, headed
by a sire of good type and breeding.
We are raising sufficient heifer calves from our best cows to take care of all
replacements that are necessary to keep the herd up to full strength. A very
creditable herd is being built up on the farm both from the standjKjint of produc-
tion and breed type.
Poultry.
Four hundred chicks were purchased and a flock of four hundred hens are
maintained on the farm. The boys get experience in brooding and raising chicks
and in the care and management of laying hens. A plentiful supply of eggs is
always available and table birds for the school requirements.
Farm Improvements.
A concrete abutment was built along west side driveway leading into the
dairy barn and the driveway graded, levelled and gravelled.
Door cut through wall into dairy barn basement and an exercise yard built
on the north side of the barn for the herd bull.
New ventilators were built on the piggery to help eliminate dampness.

HORTICULTURAL REPORT
The Horticultural Department is responsible for the care of the grounds,
landscaping and greenhouse work. The grounds and boulevards are fairly exten-
sive and require considerable work during the Summer season. There are twelve
acres of lawns and boulevards to cut with lawn mowers ; the perennial borders,
rockeries, shrubbery and flower beds, to plant out and keep in order.
Landscape Work.
An area in front of the skating rinks was levelled and seeded.
20 REPORT OF No. 51
A section of the North play field was graded and levelled. This added an
additional football field to the play grounds.
Sodding was done around the Dining Hall and Kiwanis Lodge to protect
walls and make it easier to keep it clean and tidy.
The shrubbery was thinned out around all the buildings and re-arranged.
The shrubs removed were placed where needed around the grounds.
Additional planting was made in the perennial border. ]\Iany clumps of
perennials were divided and used to fill in vacant spaces in the border and rockery.
Greenhouse Work.
In the greenhouse a considerable number of boys can be kept busy through-
out the Winter season when outside jobs are scarce. The building is also used to
start all the early vegetable plants for the School garden and the annuals and
potted plants for the flower beds.
Four thousand early vegetable plants and eighteen thousand annual flower
plants for bedding purposes were started in the greenhouse during the late winter
and spring season. These all required to be transplanted twice, once in the flats
and then into the open ground.
Horticultural Apprentices.
Seventy-one boys were assigned to, and worked on the horticultural group
during the year.
Each boy had a small section of a bench in the greenhouse where he would
propagate and grow flowers from cuttings and seeds. He was responsible for the
care of this section himself.
In the growing of the vegetable and bedding plants the boys get good prac-
tice in repotting, transplanting and setting out plants in the beds and borders.
REPORT OF GENERAL MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT
This department carried on a varied program of activity, including building
repairs ranging from extensive masonry work to artistic redecorating of the in-
teriors. In the general shop program we have carried on all types of work com-
mon to the general repair shop, and in addition considerable sheet metal work.

General Maintenance.
Considerable repairs were necessary to plaster walls in the dormitories before
re-decorating, also replacements to broken floor and cove base tiles in cottages.

door sills east of dining hall, new walks and door sills at north entrance, and door
sill, masonry repairs and concrete slab at basement entrance at dining hall.
Erected a reinforced concrete retaining wall with a welded iron pipe railing at the
north side of Darch barn.
Considerable work was necessary in levelling ofT a new section of play field
and in landscaping the area on either side of the Darch Lane. This work along
with the concrete w^ork made it necessary to haul large quantities of earth for
fill and sand and gravel for concrete. In addition to this, the heavy snow fall of
this winter made it necessary to keep the snow plow busy on many occasions.
An interesting variety of practical repair and construction projects provided
useful occupation for the woodworking and carpentry workers as follows : Build-
ing of poultry shelters and feed hoppers, a door for North Cottage, benches,
book shelves and wardrobe. Turning of six dozen baseball bats, chisel and file
handles, ornamental spheres for front entrance ; repair and refinishing of School

rubbers, rubber boots, baseballs, belts, leather coats, hockey boots and slippers.
Hobby Work.
The development of hobbies occupies a large portion of a boy's leisure time
22 REPORT OF No. 51
during the Winter months. Impetus is provided by the knowledge the best pro-
jects may be entered for competition in the Annual Lions Club Hobby Show held
in the town of Bowmanville. It is gratifying that nearly 100 prizes were awarded

Social Work Agencies.
During the year much assistance has been rendered by various social work
agencies throughout the Province. Children's Aid Societies have given generously
of their time in the preparation of reports on the suitability of homes and have
aided materially in the supervision of boys on parole.
The Big Brother Alovement operates in two Ontario Cities, namely, Hamilton
and Toronto. Boys committed to our School from these centres have in most cases
been under Big Brother treatment previously and these organizations renew active
contact after the period of training is completed and the boy returns home. Pre-

REPORT OF
No. 51
Parole Conferences are arranged by the Big Brothers in both cities. All social work
agencies which have been interested in the boy whose parole is being considered are
represented at the conferences. A report typical of Big Brother work is shown
below. These figures are for Toronto :
Attendance at 12 monthly conferences.
Reviewed 92 cases.
Investigated 68 homes.
Assist in supervision of 33 boys.
The Working Boys' Home in Toronto provides an excellent outlet for the
placement of older boys whose own homes are not suitable and who are not place-
able in rural employment. Here, adequate lodging at reasonable rates, and much
needed supervision are provided. Employment is found and boys work out during
the day in various occupations. Most boys capable of further education are en-
rolled in night school courses. Nearly fifty boys have been assisted by this com-
mendable institution in the past year and at the end of March thirty-five were
still in residence there.

REPORT OF ST. MARY'S
TRAINING SCHOOL FOR GIRLS, TORONTO
Ai'KiL 1, 1940 TO March 31, 1941
Writers of prose and of poetry through the Elizabethan era and onward,
often invoked the aid of natural forces or of beauty when they put pen to paper.
With dramatic intensity they called upon light, heat, music or song for help to
make their inward vision perceptible to others. No doubt the multitude of images
which clamoured for expression make selection confusing. It is more or less comic
to measure the intellectual giants of that period as we start to gather facts for our
present lowly and obscure history. We look up to them, however, and though we
cannot achieve the stature of the giants we can, at least, build to the height of the
pygmy. The essential is that we build. Not lack of material delays the pen but
problem of choice.
At the end of March, 1940, eighty-one pupils were in residence. At the end
of March, 1941, eighty-six were in residence. Thirty-six had been admitted
and thirty-one had been dismissed. It would be possible to write at length about
each one of the collective number. The reader would find sufficient human interest,
a settled type blossoming into a diversity of characters and qualities. There were
fewer children of Central European parentage. French-Canadians and Northern
European races were in the majority. A younger average age was in evidence and
delinquency followed the line of theft in more marked degree. Better intelligence
was an outstanding feature of admissions. They are more shrewd, ruthless, keen,
selfish, restless, than former groups.
Let us study the group as an unit and with the detachment of an observer.
It is a surer method of avoiding practiced deceit, disguise, subterfuge. These
children have suffered irreparable loss by missing the memories of family life,
parents, brothers and sisters. When they look back, over a short road it is true,
they are not remembering mother and dad, the sweetness and solace of home. Few
among our pupils have such memories and to this may be attributed the unusual
expressions which f^it across countenances. One sees a hunger or a mental quest,
a sadness or a bitterness, a doubt or an amazement, when, during readings aloud,
a picture of family life is outlined. They must wonder what it would be like to
have mother and dad equally loved and equally loving, a domestic group happy and
contented in its own orbit.
The fact just mentioned is reiterent with teasing monotony. It is a significant
fact. The cause of youthfvil delinquency and its excuse as well, may be assigned,
largely, to this privation.
The lack of family ties with other causes contributing have produced a clearly
defined dift'erence between the pupils of to-day and the pupils of five years ago
(even so short a period). To-day we train children worldly wise beyond their
years, intelligent, vibrant, daring. The mental fibre is woven with little sentiment.
It does not yield to pressure easily. This is an advantage to them when they are
returned to society but it presents difficulties to present training. Authority is
resisted, obedience is flouted, reverence is disdained. There is a notable lack of
faith in Christian truths and a lack of love for religious duties.
Those wards w^ho are under supervision astonish us by the calm audacity
with which they face adjustment. They are quite intrepid, quite unperturbed.
They look upon life as an adventure and they accept what it has to oft'er with high
26 REPORT OF No. 51
courage. "I'm going to get by," is their slogan. They find assurance in their own
vivid energy, their confidence in themselves. A troubled world does not enter into
their reckoning.
The academic course showed good results. Fifteen pupils passed the Entrance
examination and the High School classes were satisfactory. Few dislike school.
There exists an eager desire to advance in educational lines. Because they have
fewer distractions they have leisure to concentrate and the greater number love
study, learning, the acquisition of knowledge. They absorb instruction. This atten-
tion produces a pleasantness and an industry in the schoolrooms. Teachers find
consolation therein and pupils find peace of mind and heart.
Vocational and artistic training occupied all spare periods. Cooking and
kitchen work take up a considerable time. The kitchen is large, well equipped, and
the children prepare all the food for their own group. They weave fabrics, make
rugs, knit sweaters, sox, mittens, baby outfits. They learn the intricacies of tatting,
crocheting and embroidery with comparative ease, and these occupations are
useful in themselves apart from the value of the finished commodity.
Handicrafts secure the attention of restless little girls who will spend long
periods of silent effort in order to master a shuttle, a hook, or a cross stitch. They
work in water colors, oils and crayons to their own satisfaction and the complacency
of their friends. Artistic talent is found, sometimes, in the least artistic setting.
When such pupils are encouraged it happens frequently that a change for the
better is in progress on the lines of character building. They grow more womanly,
more pliable, more disposed for companionship.
Recreations demanded wise and careful supervision. Space allowed for roller
and ice skating, basketball, races, swings. Indoor recreations consist of music,
dancing, games, cards, dramatics. All take part with enthusiasm. The moving
pictures are had every month and this form of entertainment is popular. An
ordered recreation is an aid to discipline and good direction.
Supervision was uneventful except for the persons actively concerned. Con-
tact with the School remained even when there were minor infractions of the
terms of parole. Domestic placement was found more satisfactory than other
employment to start. Good and abundant food, a private and personal room, the
home atmosphere were factors toward a sane and healthful adjustment. Incident-
ally, it enabled them to build up a suitable and a becoming wardrobe, so essential
to the happiness and the comfort of teen age girls.
We thank God for having been spared all serious illness. A trained nurse,
secular, has been added to the statf and this nurse is on duty eight hours each day.
The medical specialists, to whom we offer our deepest thanks, were regular in
service. All recommendations from the psychiatric were given careful attention
and Dr. Hamlin gave unremitting and precise care. General health was good.
Our task ends with the reverent duty of gratitude, ^^'e thank every member
of the Department under which our School operates for the kind and gracious
assistance always given when we ask. We are more appreciative of this and more
grateful than words can state. We thank, too. the members of the Advisory Board
for the invariable kindness and wisdom they manifest in dealing with the prob-
lems of St. Mary's Training School.
We have the honor to remain,
Your obedient servants.
The Sisters of the Good Shepherd.

REPORT OF ST. JOHN'S
TRAINING SCHOOL FOR BOYS, TORONTO
Ai'KiL 1. I'MO TO March 31, 1941
Multifarious arc the assigned causes of delinquency. Modern sociologists
and psychologists no longer follow the tenets of Lonihro.so, who thought that all
criminals are marked from birth to a career of crime, and may be readily detected
by their stigmata of degeneration. Heredity is not now looked upon as a predom-
inating factor in delinquency ; in its stead environmental influences are held respon-
sible for any deviation from the paths of rectitude. Trained workers stress the
influence of the home, the potent power for good of the father and mother, the
need for kindness, for ])lcasant and u.seful activities, both in and out of the school,
the role played by adequate recreational facilities and health, and the incalculable
value of religion, which serves as a solace in misfortune and a curb in temptation.
A training school, such as St. John's, unfortunately cannot prevent delin-
quency, at least not directly. But its influence in smoothly and steadily re-adjust-
ing the lad who may have slipped, is greater than we can readily estimate. All
noxious influences are eliminated and those elements missing in the young delin-
quent's life, which are in part responsible for his present anti-social attitude, are
deftly brought into play while he is in the training school.
First and foremost, the young lad admitted or committed to our care from
the courts, generally comes with a grudge against society, and often with a deep
resentfulness of his parents who may not have treated him with a deep sympathetic
kindness, and the discipline which he badly needed. But at St. John's he is
immediately accepted and no one questions what he has done. The past is for-
gotten,— what is important is the present, and most of all the future. The dark
clouds soon roll away and the sun shines more brightly once his initial period of
lonesomeness is over. Happiness in the school, in the limited fashion of course
that it may be achieved, is essential. No one who visits the school can doubt for
a minute that the lads are happy. Their smiling faces, their eagerness to co-
operate and their genuine interest in all that pertains to the school is an index of
the joy that pervades their life. In the stimulation of such a happy attitude the
personnel is of the utmost importance. At this point I wish to convey my gratitude
to my fellow workers, to the Reverend Chaplain, to the Brothers who labor so
w-ell and so zealously, to the men who are in charge of the shops and to the
skilful professional men of the medical services. The heart of the school, and
the predominant factor in its success is found in this competent and devoted body
of men working in closest unison.
An essential feature of re-education, and one most tangible in its results, is
the health of the boys. Careful preliminary examinations, prior to his entry, are
made either in the boy's home town, or at the Toronto Psychiatric Clinic, under
the guidance of Dr. E. P. Lewis. Frequent and meticulous examinations by our
house physician, Dr. J. J. Hurley, supplemented by visits when necessary to St.
Michael's clinic and hospital, soon succeed in restoring the boy's health, when it is
not up to standard. In this connection the following tabulation is presented :

Spinal meningitis 2 Cleft palate 1
Tonsillectomy 8 Kidney treatment 1
Circumcision 12 Tuberculin test 131
Fractures 5 Appendectomy 3

The dental care of course is important. We are fortunate in having the ser-
vices of Dr. W. H. Godsoe, who for a number of years now has been so generous
in his time and services. Dental services during the year were as follows :

202 Amalgam restorations. 5 Partial dentures.
53 Synthetic procelains. 2 Complete upper dentures.
183 Extractions. 13 Surgical extractions.
40 Treatments. 5 Removals of nerves.
The average boy, however, is of sturdy physique and is not in need of
specialized medical care. He craves vigorous and healthful activity, and at St.
John's this is forthcoming in abundance. All are encouraged to play; soon even
the veriest tyro acquires a skill and zest for sport that often elicits the admiration
of those who see our boys on the athletic fields. The best of the athletes participate
in regular city league games. For some years now they have carried off more than
their share of championships in hockey, in lacrosse and in baseball, and the teams
from St. John's are always a factor to be reckoned with when the play-ofTs come
around. We at the school look upon this participation in city leagues as one of
the best influences in the re-orientation of the boys socially. They are proud to
play for the school, and their conduct is always beyond reproach. This is not to be
wondered at, for they must satisfy rather rigorous requirements which have noth-
ing to do with athletic ability before they can become members of the various
teams. Fortunately we have in our Athletic Director, a man whose outstanding
success in coaching is due fully as much to his popularity with the boys as to his
long experience.
It must not be thought that attention is centred solely on the cream of the
athletes. They attract some attention it is true, but the essence of the athletic
program is complete participation by every boy in the school. This is done, not
merely from the standpoint of recreation, and of health. In competitive sport
our boys learn to become skilful and self reliant, to merge their efforts with those
of the group, and to curb their tempers. In our school, particularly, where we do
not enjoy the broad acreage that is the pride of many a school, with the consequent
agricultural activities that are so helpful mentally and physically, we must seek
some other means of using up surplus energy and of developing character and
initiative. It is our intensive sport program that permits us to do this, with what
we are pleased to thing, a fair modicum of success.
But one must not imagine that all is play at school. Day in and dav out. the
normal routine of class and shop sobers our lads and teaches them to earn their
ONTARIO TRAINING SCHOOLS 29
way in this work-day worM. A <jR'at part in the rchnil(hn<^f of tin- characters can
be ascribed to these daily activities. Steadfastness of purjjose. rehabihty, intkistry
and skill, are the objectives, and in most cases satisfactory attainment of these
objectives is achieved.
Finally religion is paramount in character rebuilding. The disciplinary value
that it entails is imi)ortant ; but far more important is the solace that it brings in
the dark moment of discouragement ; and for boys who have fought through
embittered defeat how often do they occur? Religion stresses the fact that they
are personally responsible to themslves and to God for their conduct. In a subtle
but powerful way it dispels a fatalistic view that they are but drifting powerlessly
in a cruel and malignant maelstrom of evil for which they are in no way respon-
sible, and substitutes the philosophy of personal responsibility and moral worth.
Without the influence of religion, all rehabilitation of our boys would be a dreary
and vain task indeed.
All these influences are moulded into a harmonious unity, but they do not
obtrude themselves and the lad is not aware of them. What he perceives is kind-
ness, activity and vigorous fun. Slowly and imperceptibly his character is moulded,
and the good that is present in every lad no matter how wayward is bound to
come to the surface. In the short time that he is under the influence of the school
he makes tremendous strides, and more frequently than not, he is completely
rehabilitated as a useful member of society.
The task devolving upon the staff of the school is an onerous one, and often
has its moments of bleak disappointment. In these moments, the understanding
and encouragement of the Deputy Provincial Secretary's Department is a reward
for our endeavours and a stimulus to greater efforts.
May I draw to your attention two noteworthy occurrences of the past year.
The Service Clubs of Toronto, and in particular the Beaches Lion's Club, have
been particularly helpful to the school. They encourage us by their presence at
our activities and recently in a more tangible fashion, by the presentation of a
splendid and costly diving float. This summer should any of these gentlemen visit
us during our swimming periods, we will be pleased and proud to stage an
exhibition for their benefit, which may not be the last word in aquatic skill, but
will certainly manifest in a boyish and exuberant fashion our gratitude.
And here we are proud to pay a tribute to our former medical director,
Dr. R. W. Boyden, who for years looked after our boys with a skill and devoted-
ness beyond praise. He has enlarged the sphere of his usefulness and has left us
to become Medical Officer of the Irish Regiment of Canada. We thank him for
his many kindnesses and admire him for his loyalty to his country. W^ith him at
Camp Borden are many of our former pupils who have proudly joined His
Majesty's Service.
Sincerely yours.
Brother Stephen,
Superintendent.

Academic Report.
We have four groups of pupils, divided as follows :
Grades 8 and 9 16
Grades 6 and 7 17
Grades 3, 4 and 5 27
Grades 1 and 2 34
The organization of the school as far as the division of grades was concerned
remained the same for the whole year. For the first time in the history of our
school a regular class was organized for Grade 8. with full-time students. The
matter of whether it was better to have the more advanced pupils work in the
shops or do intellectual labour all way in the class-rooms was debated with the
Advisory Board of the school, and wc came to the conclusion that it was better
for them to be in their respective rooms as long as possible. The New Course of
Study was followed and the results obtained were on the whole satisfactory.
Singing lessons were regularly given in all the different groups, and several
creditable performances have been staged by the pupils of all the departments.
The entertainment given around Christmas was a special treat. The programme
was varied and interesting, the behaviour and general bearing of the boys so satis-
factory that the audience we invited for the occasion found the event exceptionally
good and an excellent note for the institution. These musical and singing lessons
were very useful not only as a training for the voice and ear. but were at the same
time a great help in developing and maintaining the religious emotions in our boys.
As a consequence of this work, we were often able to sing the different religious
services in our chapel, and have the pupils participate in the singing, either of
the High Mass or the Vesper Service, specially on the great feastdays of the year:
Christmas, Epiphany, Easter and Pentecost.
In each of the class-rooms, we stressed the necessity and encouraged the
teaching of good and correct speaking, but unfortunately the pupils did not
respond as much as they should have, specially when talking among themselves in
the recreation and work periods.
In the lower grades, we employed for some time a regular teacher whose duty
was to mind the backward boys and give them special reading lessons every day
to permit them to catch up to the others and follow the general movements of their
group. We received this year ten boys who didn't know a word of reading, and
after some months of very careful work, they could read as well as the pupils of
grades 1 and 2. All these boys are full-time pupils.
Much time was devoted to drawing in those grades, and the academic methods
of conducting an Auxiliary Class were made use of with concrete material and
images of all kinds.
ONTARIO TRAINING SCHOOLS 31
We l)()Uglu tor this (li-partiiH-iu i\\cnty-li\c larj^c wall-pictures iiearing on
religious subjects, and many other useful objects for intuitive teaching. As a
hobby, those children liked to collect stamps, cut pictures from catalogues, paste
them in their scrap-book and write the names, in French as well as in English,
of the objects represented by these pictures. We also bought for these grades
thirty-six "Drawing-Books", and once a week. Friday afternoon, the teacher con-
cerned gave a very interesting lesson in c(jlouring designs. We were much satisfied
with the work done with those younger pupils, and we promoted twelve of them
in September, 1940, at the reopening of the school year. All kinds of songs were
taught to the pupils of this group. Every day, the teacher made the boys sing
either a patriotic, religious, college or humorous song.
In grades three, four and five, we still have twenty-seven full-time pupils.
The boys of this class have attracted the attention of the school and the many
visitors that came to see their very interesting exhibition of drawing, specially
the exhibition of black silhouettes mounted on glass and covered with cellophane.
500 models of all kinds were exhibited and 240 mounted on glass. When a pupil
leaves the school, he is given one of these drawings to keep as a souvenir of his
work in the drawing-class. Seventy-six wooden objects were also on exhibit there,
models carved either with a jack-knife or other small carving tools.
The circulation of the library books during the past year was kept up as usual.
Four boys are still in charge of delivering the books to the sixty-five pupils who
are interested in reading supplementary liooks. They are allowed to change them
daily if they wish. Occasionally, the children are invited to give an oral account
of their reading. Most of the reading is done in class during the supplementary
reading period set aside in the time-table for this subject, and also during recess,
outside the class-room.
The school library contains over 500 English and French books. Moreover,
the children are allowed to read the following periodicals : the Newsweek, the
World Afifairs and the Citizen. Those publications come regularly to the school
and many boys enjoy the privilege of being permitted to read them. The pupils of
Grades 7 and 8 are interested in collecting post-marks as a hobby, a very useful
occupation for rainy days. Many of the boys have their own scrap-books, and
work at their favorite pastime in their spare moments. Thirty pupils have taken
this interesting collection as a hobby and are still working at it.
Religious Training.
Our endeavours are devoted to impress upon the boys the value of religion
in life. We are aware that the main factors of delinquency are adverse home
conditions and evil company ; and many a boy comes to our school with little or no
appreciation of things sacred. Fortunately, we are well equipped to look after
their religious needs. Besides daily classroom instruction in religion, our Chap-
lain gives two formal talks a week on moral or ethical subjects. We inaugurated
in September a very profitable course in religion for the benefit of the boys who
work in the kitchen and in the dining-hall. As those children stay outside the
classroom most of the time, they are thus prevented from enjoying the benefits
given to the other pupils. This course is given once a week. In March, we organ-
ized a special retreat for all the children of the school. We had two missionaries,
and the services were conducted and the sermons delivered in English and French,
the boys being free to choose the language they preferred. As usual, we gave a
32 REPORT OF No. 51
weekly lecture to the whole school, presided at three entertainments during which
the examination results were proclaimd publicly in the presence of the boys, the
staff and a few invited friends of the institution.
Due to the close co-operation between the Superintendent and all the members
of the staff, those public celebrations were highly successful and greatly enjoyed
by all. The feast of Christmas was celebrated in the usual way. and most of the
gifts were donated by the friends of the school. Four boys were confirmed and
made their first communion in our chapel. We bought a series of religious pic-
tures to be used in the periods of ethical instruction, pictures three and a half feet
long by two and a half wide, mounted on cardboard. Those pictures proved very
useful for intuitive teaching.
In order to avoid boredom and tediousness, twice a week we say some of the
prayers aloud, during Mass, changing them from time to time, for variety sake.
Health Report.
During the year the health of the boys in the school has been very good.
There was no serious illness to report and there was nothing contagious. As usual,
the pupils received constant medical care under the guidance of Dr. Tittley. and
his directions were followed in every respect. Four cases of fractures, sustained
during play, were attended to at once. There were three tonsilectomies. but no
other operation during the current year. Our doctor made 62 visits and 353
examinations.
The school dentist. Dr. J. J. Kirby, from Hawkesbury. came to the institution
once a week, on Tuesday morning, to give his professional care to our boys. He
made 325 examinations. 249 fillings and 157 extractions. Repeatedly, he mani-
fested his satisfaction at the way the pupils were taught to clean their teeth, and
he found that the children needed very little medical attention after his first
examination.
Summer Camp.
During the summer months of July and August, we organized a regular summer
camp at Point au Chene at the confluence of the Rouge and Ottawa Rivers, a
distance of twenty-three miles from the school. Most of the boys were allowed
to stay from two to three weeks at the camp if they wished and if their conduct
had been satisfactory. We sent from twenty-five to thirty campers in each section
from July 1st to September 2nd when we broke camp and resumed the scholastic
work of the year. As this organization required many supplementary supervisors,
we were fortunate enough to find twelve good men, friends of the institution,
who were quite willing to devote a few weeks of their precious vacation months,
either in the classrooms or in organizing games on the playground, a generosity
which we highly appreciated indeed.
Physical Training.
From the standpoint of results obtained, the past year has been very satis-
factorv. The programme in physical education and organized sports was on the
whole the same as last year's. Class periods followed a definite course and in-
structions were designed to train in skills as well as in fundamentals, and to pre-
]")are the boys for full partici]>ation in all sporting activities at the school. The
ONTARIO TRAINING SCHOOLS 33
aiiimal indoor demonstration in ])hysical training was well attended and a very
successful event.
We divided the gymnastic classes into four groups, as follows :
First Grou]) 14 boys
Second Group 18 boys
Third Group 24 boys
Fourth Group 20 boys
Occasionally, specially wlun we received many new boys at the same time, w-e were
compellefl to ors^anize a temporary fifth group until the new-comers had developed
sufficient skill in the fundamentals to be able to catch up to the other groups.
Here are some of the points covered in the periods of instruction : Marching
tactics, corrective gymnastics, apparatus work on the horizontal bar, side horse,
long horse and the sword dance.
During winter, we had two rinks at the disposal of the boys, and they had
a very enjoyable season, playing games either on our ice or on outside rinks. We
organized twenty-three different hockey teams among the boys and 234 games were
played. The main teams were the Speed King which competed with the different
teams of the Ottawa River Shore Hockey League, and the Saint Joseph that was
made up of players under seventeen. The Speed King won the Mercil Trophy,
playing against La Salle Academy team, Ottawa. In the summer, baseball was very
popular with the boys, and as most of the games were played on our ground, great
interest was evidenced by our neighbours who regularly thronged to our park to
see our boys perform and thus stimulate them to greater effectiveness.
A few years ago, the boys, working under an instructor, constructed a dam
and dug a good swimming pool in the creek which flows through the school pro-
perty. During July and August, those boys who were not sent to the camp enjoyed
two swims a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. This outdoor pool
afforded excellent facilities for instruction and training in springboard diving,
swimming strokes and general training for muscular development.
At the annual demonstration of gymnastics, the orchestra of the institution
made up of thirteen players accompanied the marches and dances on their instru-
ments, consisting of mouth organs, clappers, guitar, mandolin, spoons and piano.
In order to occupy as many boys as possible on the playground, we had fourteen
swings built near the tennis court and kept in good repair all the summer.
Vocational Training
Shoe Department.
This division has been very active during the current year. We hired a new
instructor and we now have three men in charge of fifteen apprentices, of whom
twelve are full-time workers, working about five hours a day, with two half-
holidays, Wednesday afternoon and Saturday afternoon. We generally keep two
boys doing the same kind of work, changing them from time to time to give them
a general training, and at the same time create a little variety in the work. A few
alterations have been made in the shoe shop. A new electric system was installed
at a cost of $150, and other improvements Avere eflFected to facilitate the movements
of the workers and thus increase the production : two cupboards were made ; tables
and shelves changed and put in the centre of the room at the reach of every one.

Tailoring Division.
We have in this department one instructor and eighteen apprentices, out of
that number seven are half-time workers, coming to the shop in the afternoon
only. Most of the working hours were employed in mending the clothing of the
pupils. At least 200 articles of clothing were mended and put in good shape,
every week. Three former appentices who learned their trade at the school work
regularly, are earning $15 a week. As usual some of the ladies of the village of
Alfred devoted a certain amount of time in mending the socks of the children.
We bought for this department a new Chandler ^Machine at a cost of $55.
Articles made during the year :
Suits 60
Trousers 211
Night-shirts 84

Bookbinding and Printing.
Three apprentices are at present working in this department under an in-
structor every afternoon, but fourteen boys received there some training in book-
b'mding during the current year. They are credited with binding 150 books for
the school library.
We also began to organize a printing shop under the same management. For
this purpose we bought a second-hand printing-press, and the boys were kept busy
putting all the letters and characters in good shape, and shortly after its acquisition,
we made use of it to ])rint the school paper, "The Guide".
Much help was frequently given the pupils by an experienced and very clever
printer living in the village, a man ever ready to lend us a helping hand at any
time his services were needed. As a consequence of the inauguration of this new
department, some slight alterations had to be made in the Bookbinding and Print-
ing Shop which kept the boys busy putting everything around in order.
Woodwork Report.
There are now five apprentices in that department, but twenty others worked
there and received some training in woodworking before they were sent home at
the expiration of their time in the school.

roof of the main building was renewed or repaired, a work of several days.
Metal Work.
Considerable repairs were made by this section for the year just ended to
the main building and shops. Our instructor and his helper were kept busy doing
all kinds of odd jobs in and around the house. They made :
14 Swings for the playground.
1 Cement coal bin.
21 Window screens.
8 Screen doors.
5 Trucks.
They painted the wood-shop and installed the heating system ; modified the
heating system of the shoe-shop. The hot-water system of the main building was
completely renewed ; toilets were placed in the new carpentry shop and a hot water
reservoir was added in the shoe-shop. They also repaired : farm implements, lawn
mowers, scrapers, shovels, pipes, radiators, chairs, sinks, ovens, garden tools and
kitchen equipment. They distribvtted and fixed at different places in the main
building 60 evaporation cans to secure the required humidity in the house in
winter.
Dining-Hall Report.
Six boys work in the kitchen, serve as waiters in the dining-hall or work as
general helpers in the washroom, vegetable or bread rooms. Boys interested in
cooking were given practical training in the making of cookies, preparation of
vegetables, cutting meat, and making bread. They helped the chef in making the
bread for the whole house five times a week. Six boys were given employment in
restaurants in and around Ottawa.
The products canned for home consumption amounted to :
Tomatoes 1,500 gallons
Beans 500

36 REPORT OF No. 51
Miscellanies.
Many visitors came to the school, people interested in the welfare of the
inmates of the institution ; and in many instances the boys gave a short entertain-
ment in honour of the guests who came to visit them. We were favoured with the
visit of two distinguished guests, their Excellencies the Archbishops Charbonneau
of Montreal and A. Vachon of Ottawa. ]\Iost of the visitors came from those two
cities, a few from the villages around Alfred. We like those visits because they
give us an opportunity of training our boys in politeness and of giving them some
directions about good behaviour in the presence of strangers.
On the request and at the invitation of one of our friends, the staflf of our
Training School paid several visits to two other training schools of the Province :
St. John's, Toronto, and the Ontario Training School for Boys, at Bowmanville.
At the training school in Bowmanville, three members of our personnel were invited
to stay there a week each, the guests of the institution. We welcome this opportunity
to thank the Department, the Superintendent and all the staff, either for their
sympathetic assistance or their cordial hospitality which made us feel quite at home
with the teachers as well as with the boys of this well-organized training school.
AgricnUural Report.
Twenty-one boys worked on the school farm during the past year and were
given farm training. Fourteen of those boys are now engaged as farm hands in
the counties around our place.
Crops were generally good during the 1940 season. The root and potato harvests
were above the average. We are building up a good herd of Holstein cows and all
heifer calves are kept from the best cows for replacements. Seven of them are
registered under Federal Inspection.
The boys are taught to milk, hitch and drive horses, work the farm implements,
weed the garden and in general do all common farm jobs. As working on the farm
tends to establish good working habits, we require that the boys put in a definite
number of hours daily and stick to a job until it is finished.

Maple Syruf>.
The maple syrup season was rather short, but as usual the boys were permitted
to have an outing at the sugar-bush, and take their lunch at the log-cabin, a treat
enjoyed most cordially by all concerned. Ten parties, mostly from Ottawa, Hull
and the towns around Alfred, came to the sugar-bush at least once during the
season, and had a most enjoyable time there. Three boys helped the Brothers in
charge, and made themselves useful in a general way. The season was very ordin-
ary as we could get only 90 gallons of syrup as compared to the 200 gallons we
obtained three years ago.
Gardening and Horticultural Report.
Trees were thinned out and trimmed in front of the Main Building. The
perennial shrub at the front entrance was dug, trimmed and put in good shape early
in the spring ; and flowers were planted all around the west and north sides of the
property. Three boys were assigned to this work during the summer. They got
experience in planting flower beds, trimming shrubbery, transplanting plants and
assorting perennials for filling the borders. Thus, as a consequence of their esthetic
work, the general appearance of the landscape around the house was greatly im-
proved.
The staff of teachers, supervisors and servants was increased during the past
year, and is now totalling twenty-six men.
