MULTIPLE  BIRTHS 

(See  Table  No.  4) 

Table  Number  4  shows  that  there  were  725  cases  of  twins  and  six  cases  of 
triplets.  Of  the  twins  760  were  males  and  690  females  and  of  the  triplets  eight 
were  males  and  ten  females.  All  these  were  living  births.  Actually  there  were 
815  cases  of  twins.  This  leaves  a  balance  of  ninety  pairs.  Of  this  ninety,  in  sixty- 
five  cases,  one  of  the  children  was  still-born  and  one  born  alive,  in  which  case 
the  living  birth  was  classified  in  the  total  living  births;  in  twenty-five  cases,  both 
children  were  still-born,  and  these,  along  with  the  sixty-five  still-born,  where  one 
was  also  born  alive,  were  all  classified  as  still-births.  Of  the  triplets  there  were 
actually  seven  cases,  in  six  of  which  all  the  children  were  born  alive  and  in  one 
case  all  the  children  were  dead  born  and  classified  accordingly.

decrease  of  0.4  in  the  rate  and  is  the  lowest  rate  since  1918.  The  decline  in  the 
birth  rate  and  marriage  rate  is  due,  no  doubt,  to  the  economic  conditions  pre- 
vailing in  the  year  1925.  The  cost  of  living  was  high  and  a  large  number  of 
residents  of  our  country  emigrated  to  the  U.S.A. 

(See  tables  10  to  16  inclusive)

increase  being  but  0.1,  although  an  increase  of  882  in  the  actual  number  of 
deaths.

TUBERCULOSIS 

There  were  1.842  deaths  from  tuberculosis,  giving  a  rate  of  59.3  per  100,000 
of  population.  This  is  still  another  decrease  in  the  rate,  although  a  smail  one 
being  but  0.2.  The  declining  rate  of  tuberculosis  extends  back  over  a  long  period 
of  years,  showing  that  the  disease  is  well  under  control.

IXFAXT  MORTALITY 

(See  tables  1.  2.  2a,  2b) 

During  the  year  there  were  5,530  deaths  of  children  under  one  year  of  age, 
20.4  per  cent,  of  whom  died  under  one  day  and  38.3  under  one  week  (see  table 
18),  the  most  of  which  deaths  were  due  to  premature  births  and  debility.  In 
the  later  weeks  and  months  diarrhoea  and  enteritis  was  the  most  effective, 
followed  by  the  respiratory-  group.  A  complete  analysis  of  causes  by  ages  will 
be  found  in  table  20. 

The  infant  mort^^lity  rate  was  78.8  per  1,000  living  births,  which  is  3.1 
higher  than  for  1924  but  6.1  lower  than  for  1923  and  with  the  exception  of  1924 
is  the  lowest  for  some  time. 

The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  deaths  for  a  decade  together  with

GENERAL 

During  the  year  an  important  change  took  place  in  this  Branch  in  that  it 
was  transferred  from  the  Provincial  Secretary's  Department,  under  which  it  had 
functioned  for  many  years,  to  the  Department  of  Health. 


Certificates  and  Fees 

c 

The  work  of  this  branch  has  increased  enormously  in  so  far  as  the  issuing 
of  certificates  is  concerned.  Approximately  30,000  certificates  were  issued 
during  the  yeaj. 

An  important  change  which  took  place  during  the  year,  to  be  exact  on 
October  6th,  was  an  amendment  in  the  fees  for  service.  Up  to  this  date  the 
fee  for  a  search  covering  a  three-year  period  for  one  registration  was  25  cents, 
and  for  a  certificate  50  cents  in  addition  to  this  fee.  On  October  6th  the  fees 
became  50  cents  for  a  search  covering  the  same  period  and  $1  additional  for  the 
certificate.  With  the  increase  of  the  fees  for  official  certificates  the  department 
decided  to  make  searches  for  mothers'  allowances  purposes  and  for  pension 
insurance  purposes  in  the  cases  of  returned  soldiers  without  any  charge 
whatever.

Old  Records 

While  the  branch  has  no  records  of  births  or  deaths  prior  to  July  1st,  1869, 
the  date  on  which  registration  of  births,  marriages  and  deaths  became  legally- 
effective,  the  branch  had  for  many  years  marriage  registers  which  had  been 
gathered  from  some  sources  now  forgotten,  which  date  back  in  some  cases  to 
the  "forties,"  These  do  not  by  any  means  constitute  anything  like  complete 
records  but  such  as  they  are  they  are  now  available.  Although  they  had  been 
in  possession  of  the  branch  so  long  they  had  not  until  recently  been  indexed  for 
adequate  search.     The  following  is  a  list  of  these:

ANNUAL  REPORT 

OF  THE 

Department  of  Health 

of  the  Province  of  Ontario 

For  the  Year  Ending  December,  31st,  1925 


RESUME  OF  THE  TRANSACTIONS  OF  THE   PROVINCIAL   BOARD 
OF  HEALTH  BY  JOHN  W.  S.  McCULLOUGH,  CHIEF 
OFFICER  OF  HEALTH. 

This  is  the  Forty-fourth  Annual  Report  of  the  Provincial  Board  of  Health 
for  the  year  ending  31st  December,  1925. 

The  Board  held  four  regular  and  three  special  meetings  during  the  year. 

There  were  no  regulations  made  by  the  Board  during  the  year. 

In  accordance  with  the  legislation  of  last  session  of  the  Legislature,  the  work 
of  medical  and  dental  inspection  of  schools  was  transferred  from  the  Department 
of  Education  to  the  Department  of  Health,  and  the  Chief  School  Medical  Officer, 
John  Phair,  M.B.,  D.P.H.,  with  his  staff  joined  the  Department,  and  Fred  J. 
Conboy,  D.D.S.,  became  Director  of  Dental  Services. 

During  the  year,  the  Registrar-General's  Branch  was  transferred  from  the 
Provincial  Secretary's  Department  to  the  Department  of  Health,  as  the  Division 
of  Vital  Statistics. 

In  the  course  of  the  year  W.  J.  Bell,  M.B.,  became  Deputy  Minister  of 
Health.  Dr.  J.  J.  Middleton  left  the  service  for  South  Africa  where  he  has  been 
appointed  to  the  position  of  Deputy  Medical  Officer  of  Health  for  Johannesburg. 
The  positions  of  Pediatrician  and  of  Director  of  Education  are  thus  left  vacant. 
Dr.  O.  Hague  was  appointed  assistant  clinician  in  tuberculosis.  The  various 
divisions  of  the  Department  have  been  carrying  on  their  work  as  usual,  and  the 
reports  of  each  will  be  found  elsewhere  in  this  volume. 

The  Board  dealt  with  a  large  volume  of  business  during  the  year,  particularly 
in  the  approval  of  water  and  sewage  utilities. 

Reference  to  these  will  appear  in  the  report  of  the  Sanitary  Engineering 
Division. 

The  cost  of  the  biological  products  supplied  free  to  the  public  in  the 

fiscal  year  was $50,548  06 

Total  revenue 2,441  90 

Net  cost $48,106  16 

The  cost  of  Insulin  similarly  distributed 33,569  63 

$81,675  79

The  diagnostic  chest  clinic  during  the  year  1925  held  clinics  at  Sault  Ste. 
Marie,  Sarnia,  Owen  Sound,  Forest  and  Clinton.  The  physicians  of  these 
centres'and  the  neighbouring  towns  gave  splendid  co-operation. 

The  following  is  a  classification  of  the  cases  examined : 

Not  a  factor 198  48.30% 

Suspicious 80  19.51% 

Active  tuberculosis 38  9 .  26% 

Arrested  tuberculosis 27  6.6  % 

Bronchitis  non-tuberculous 27  6.6  % 

Lung  abscess 2  .  49% 

Asthma 15  3.65% 

Bronchiectasis 4  99% 

Empyema 1  .  24% 

Silicosis 6  1 .  46% 

Thickened  pleura — (following  empyema) 1  .  24% 

New  growth '. 3  .  73% 

Heart  condition  (maior) 7  1 .  70% 

Unclassified ' 1  .24% 

410 

A  small  percentage  of  those  examined  were  found  to  be  tuberculous  as  was 
the  case  in  1924.     This  finding  has  been  brought  about  by  the  elimination,  as

far  as  possible,  of  previously  diagnosed  cases  and  the  examination  of  a  large 
number  of  contacts  (especially  children)  and  suspicious  cases. 

During  the  summer  the  clinic  visited  Prince  Edward  Island  under  the 
auspices  of  the  Canadian  Tuberculosis  Association,  and  conducted  examinations 
at  ten  centres  of  the  Island.  One  hundred  and  ninety  cases  were  referred  by  the 
physicians. 

The  last  four  months  of  the  year  have  been  given  over  to  the  examination  of 
quarrymen  and  gold  miners  in  an  effort  to  estimate  the  amount  of  tuberculosis 
and  silicosis  among  these  workers.  In  all,  three  hundred  and  twenty-five  men 
were  examined.    The  results  of  this  survey  will  be  available  at  a  later  date. 

EfTorts  are  now  being  made  to  organize  permanent  tuberculosis  clinics 
throughout  Ontario. 

On  October  1st,  the  Department  of  Health  was  fortunate  in  securing  the 
appointment  of  Dr.  O.  G.  Hague  to  the  stafif  of  the  clinic.  Dr.  Hague  has  spent 
four  years  on  the  staff  of  Weston  Sanatorium  and  recently  obtained  his  degree 
in  radiology  from  the  University  of  Toronto  and  is  well  qualified  for  diagnostic 
work. 

4.  Other  Preventable  Diseases 

(a)  Diphtheria. 

The  Division  co-operated  in  the  immunization  of  147  school  children  in 
Morewood  and  several  hundred  in  township  of  Scarboro. 

(b)  Scarlet  Fever. 

With  the  institutional  physician  Dick  tests  and  immunization  work  was 
carried  out  in  134  children  at  the  True  Blue  Orange  Home,  Richmond  Hill. 
Forty-seven  children  at  the  Industrial  Farm,  Burwash,  were  Dick  tested  and  the 
positives  immunized.  On  September  16th,  the  division  co-operated  in  the  Dick 
testing  of  317,  staff  and  inmates,  at  Burwash.  Twenty-eight  positives  were 
immunized. 

The  division  assisted  the  institutional  physician  in  carrying  out  the  Dick  test 
on  all  inmates  in  the  Mercer  Reformatory. 

(c)  Smallpox. 

The  division  assisted  in  the  control  of  small  outbreaks  of  this  disease  at 
Arthur  and  Omemee. 

(d)  Typhoid. 

An  outbreak  of  typhoid  fever  at  Ontario  Hospital,  Orillia,  was  investigated. 

(e)  Milk. 

On  April  17th  at  the  request  of  the  M.O.H.  the  milk  supply  of  Oakville 
was  investigated. 

5.  Biological  Products 

Unitage  of  insulin  distributed  5,888,050,  cost $35,569.63 

Net  cost  of  biological  products  distributed 48,106.16 

Total $81,675.79

24  THE  REPORT  OF  THE  No.  14 


DIVISION  OF  INDUSTRIAL  HYGIENE 
J.  G.  Cunningham,  B.A.,  M.B.,  D.P.H.,  Director 


I  have  the  honour  to  submit  the  following  report,  the  work  of  the  Division 
of  Industrial  Hygiene  for  the  year  1925. 

The  objective  of  the  Division  of  Industrial  Hygiene  is  to  help  industry  to 
help  itself  in  reducing  the  suffering  and  loss  in  production  caused  by  ill  health, 
physical  defects,  and  industrial  accidents — one  of  the  four  great  sources  of  waste 
in  industry. 

With  this  in  mind  the  activities  of  the  division  come  under  the  following 
headings: 

1.  Presenting  to  employers  and  employees  facts  showing  that  considerable 
preventable  disability  occurs  among  industrial  workers  and  that  this  costs 
money,  whether  the  sickness  included  requires  compensation  payment  or  not. 

2.  Study  by  the  division  of  problems  in  industry  in  Ontario  affecting  the 
health  of  workers. 

3.  Recommendations  to  industry  for  the  improvement  of  conditions  of 
work  which  are  detrimental  to  health  and,  extending  beyond  this,  to  detailed 
recommendations  as  to  how  health  supervision  of  individual  workers  in  plants 
may  be  organized  and  developed. 

Under  the  first  heading  the  situation  regarding  health  of  workers  has  been 
presented  in  numerous  personal  interviews  with  employers.  This  is  probably 
the  most  fruitful  means  of  communication.  These  conversations  frequently 
arise  out  of  work  done  by  the  division's  staff  on  individual  problems  in  health 
with  which  employers  are  confronted ;  for  example,  different  types  of  occupational 
disease,  infection  of  industrial  injuries,  etc. 

About  forty  articles  have  been  prepared  and  published  dealing  with  different 
aspects  of  the  subject  of  the  health  of  industrial  workers.  These  have  appeared 
in  daily  and  weekly  newspapers  and  trade  journals.  Two  or  three  scientific 
articles  dealing  with  different  phases  of  the  w^ork  have  been  published  in  scientific 
journals. 

Current  literature  on  various  phases  of  the  subject  of  industrial  hygiene 
has  been  widely  circulated  from  a  lending  library,  which  aims  to  keep  such 
material  readily  available  for  those  working  in  the  field  of  industrial  relations  in 
industry,  or,  more  specifically,  those  contemplating  or  developing  some  activity 
in  the  maintenance  of  health  of  workers  in  industry. 

Under  the  second  heading  the  individual  problems  referred  to  the  division 
from  many  sources  deal  with : 

(1)  The  specific  occupational  hazards,  such  as  the  influence  of  heat  on  the 
eyes  of  tin  plate  workers,  eye  effects  of  wood  alcohol  in  picture  moulding  and 
finishing,  health  hazards  in  bronzing,  means  for  detecting  the  presence  of  blue 
water  gas  in  the  air  as  a  warning,  the  hazard  from  benzol  in  "Duco,"  the  health 
hazards  in  electric  welding,  means  for  prevention  of  lead  poisoning  in  hardening 
steel,  oil  dermatitis,  etc. 

From  various  sources  apart  from  trade  investigations  noted  later  in  this 
report,  sixty-one  cases  of  occupational  disease  have  come  to  the  attention  of  the 
division.  Such  of  these  into  which  it  has  been  possible  and  desirable  to  further 
inquire  have  involved  various  chemical  problems  such  as  analysis  of  floor  dust 
for  content  of  lead;  collection  and  estimation  of  benzene,  lead,  carbon  monoxide 


1926         PROVIXCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 25 

in  air;  arsenic  and  lead  determinations  in  urine  and  saliva;  rock  and  lung 
analysis  for  silica  content;  blood  analysis  for  calcium  and  uric  acid  content. 

In  addition  to  investigation  and  reports  incident  to  many  inquiries  of  this 
type  a  few  systematic  investigations  of  the  health  of  workers  in  hazardous  trades 
have  been  undertaken: 

i.  In  a  storage  battery  plant  where  the  health  of  workers  exposed  to  lead  is 
supervised  by  an  outside  physician,  120  blood  smears  were  examined  and  the 
results  checked  with  the  physical  examinations  by  the  plant  physician,  with  a 
view  to  forming  opinion  as  to  how  far  it  is  possible  to  depend  on  these  blood 
examinations  as  a  guide  for  the  removal  of  men  from  exposure  to  lead.  The 
blood  findings  proved  to  be  a  useful  guide  in  the  light  of  physical  examination 
findings  and  subsequent  experiences  of  the  men.  As  a  result  four  cases  of  early 
lead  poisoning  were  detected  and  removed  to  other  work  before  disability  occurred, 
and  six  additional  men  were  removed  following  re-examination  because  of  the 
development  of  early  symptoms  of  poisoning. 

ii.  Fifty-two  examinations  were  made  of  men  exposed  to  arsenic  in  an 
ore  smelting  and  refining  plant.  Thirteen  of  these  cases  showed  symptoms 
associated  with  exposure  to  arsenic,  such  as  rashes,  high  blood  count,  high 
haemoglobin,  low  blood  pressure,  perforated  septum.  Five  cases  showed  evidence 
of  excessive  bleeding  and  diminished  haemoglobin,  sometimes  said  to  be  associated 
with  exposure  to  cobalt.  These  cases  were  exposed  to  cobalt  dust.  It  is 
interesting  to  record  that  there  were  six  cases  of  sugar  in  the  urine  in  this  group. 
With  such  an  array  of  symptoms  none  of  these  men  complained  of  ill  health. 

iii.  One  hundred  and  ten  examinations  were  made  of  men  exposed  to  silica 
dust  in  quarries  in  Ontario.  Of  these  58  showed  no  effect;  22  were  suspicious 
of  silicosis;  22  had  definite  silicosis;  and  8  had  silicosis  plus  tuberculosis  or 
suspicious  tuberculosis. 

iv.  Two  hundred  and  thirty-six  examinations  were  made  of  men  exposed 
to  silica  dust  in  the  mines  of  the  Porcupine  camp.  In  this  group  of  examinations 
only  those  were  examined  who  had  not  been  exposed  to  silica  dust  outside 
Ontario  and  had  been  employed  in  Ontario  mines  at  least  five  years  in  occupations 
where  exposure  could  occur.  The  results  showed  98  cases  with  no  effects; 
47  cases  of  suspected  silicosis;  45  cases  with  definite  silicosis;  30  cases  of  silicosis 
with  tuberculosis  or  suspected  tuberculosis;  and  16  with  tuberculosis  or  suspected 
tuberculosis  alone.     So  that  silicosis  is  being  produced  in  Ontario  gold  mines. 

In  this  work  the  division  has  been  assisted  by  the  tuberculosis  experts  of 
the  Department  of  Health.  A  plan  for  dealing  with  this  situation  is  in  process 
of  development.  Some  steps  have  already  been  taken  to  reduce  the  hazard 
and  to  care  for  any  men  who  require  treatment. 

V.  The  inquiry  into  means  for  controlling  nickel  rash  has  been  continued. 
Investigation  was  made  in  ten  nickel  plating  plants  and  in  the  refinery  of  the 
International  Nickel  Company.  The  number  of  cases  of  nickel  rash  in  these 
plants  was  reduced  to  two  this  year.  A  report  of  this  work  is  in  process  of 
preparation. 

(2)    Ventilation. 

In  connection  with  the  work  on  nickel  rash  where  conditions  of  high  tempera- 
ture obtain  and  in  other  processes  where  high  temperature  and  humidity  are 
incident  to  the  operation,  particularly  in  the  pulp  and  paper  industry,  many 
observations  have  been  made  with  the  katathermometer  to  determine  the 
"cooling  power"  of  the  air  in  various  seasons  and  under  varying  outside  atmos- 
spheric  conditions  in  the  same  season,  with  a  view  to  ascertaining  exactly  what 


26 


THE  REPORT  OF  THE 


No.  14 


ventilation  conditions  exist  and  in  what  way  they  may  be  improved.  This 
question  is  closely  connected  with  the  problem  of  condensation  of  moisture  in 
hot,  humid  processes,  a  very  important  economic  consideration.  One  remedy 
may  meet  both  conditions  satisfactorily.  About  4,000  katathermometer  obser- 
vations have  been  made  in  the  past  year  and  from  a  study  of  these  recommenda- 
tions are  being  drafted. 

(3)  Fumigation. 

Cyanogen  chloride  has  been  used  for  fumigation  by  the  chemist  of  the 
Division  in  bunk  houses  in  the  lumber  industry  with  good  results.  It  will  always 
be  necessary  to  keep  the  use  of  cyanogen  chloride  in  the  hands  of  experts.  A 
plan  for  its  use  widely  has  not  yet  been  developed. 

(4)  Reduction  in  Severity  of  Accidents. 

Some  attention  has  been  paid  to  the  reduction  in  severity  of  accidents  in 
industry,  particularly  with  respect  to  the  number  of  cases  of  infected  wounds 
and  the  efforts  which  are  made  to  return  injured  men  to  work  as  soon  as  possible 
consistent  with  safety  to  the  worker. 

Infection  of  wounds  costs  at  least  one  million  dollars  a  year  in  compensation 
in  Ontario.  A  large  percentage  of  this  can  be  prevented  with  adequate  first  aid 
facilities,  including  personnel  and  equipment,  but  particularly  supervision,  which 
is  so  often  entirely  lacking.  The  early  return  of  injured  men  to  work  consistent 
with  good  recovery  depends  to  a  considerable  extent  upon  the  relationship 
between  the  industry'  and  the  physician.  Where,  as  is  generally  the  case,  the 
physician  has  no  responsibility  to  the  industry  beyond  his  responsibility  to  the 
employee  as  a  patient  the  subject  is  not  likely  to  receive  much  attention.  This 
matter  has  been  considered  by  the  Industrial  Medicine  Committee  of  the  Ontario 
Medical  Association.  At  their  annual  meeting  in  December  the  report  of  the 
subcommittee,  dealing  with  the  matter  indicating  the  position  of  the  physician 
in  industry  was  submitted  for  consideration  and  approval  of  the  profession  as  a 
whole.  It  was  discussed  and  referred  to  county  societies  for  further  discussion 
and  recommendations.     This  should  help  to  clarify  the  situation. 

During  the  past  year  the  trade  associations  of  the  lumber  and  pulp  and  paper 
industries  have  taken  primary  steps  to  enlist  the  co-operation  of  physicians, 
employers,  and  employees  in  an  effort  to  reduce  accident  severity. 

Under  the  third  heading  an  increasing  number  of  industrial  executives  have 
shown  an  interest  in  the  organization  and  development  of  means  for  supervising 
the  general  health  of  the  men  and  women  employed  in  their  plants.  The  number 
of  nurses  employed  in  industry  is  increasing  slowly.  The  arrangements  with 
physicians  in  individual  plants  whereby  the  physician  assumes  responsibility 
for  health  work  which  is  done  in  the  plant  and  supervises  the  health  of  workers 
on  a  part-time  basis  for  a  nominal  consideration  is  also  increasing.  It  is  in  such 
an  arrangement  as  this  that  the  suffering  and  anxiety,  the  loss  in  time  and  money 
incident  to  sickness  and  accident  in  industry  can  be  reduced.  The  Division  of 
Industrial  Hygiene  has  facilities  for  the  use  of  such  appointees  in  health  problems 
in  industry  with  which  they  are  confronted.  These  facilities  are  being  used 
daily. 

The  report  of  the  Chief  Sanitary  Inspector,  Mr.  A.  R.  White,  follows: 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  for  your  consideration  the  ninth  annual  report 

showing  work  performed  by  your  group  of  sanitary  inspectors  during  the  year 

1925. 


1926 PROVIXCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 27 

The  work  of  your  inspectors,  while  general  in  its  character,  centres  mainly 
in  and  around  the  huge  industries  which  are  scattered  throughout  Northern 
Ontario,  and  may  be  cited  as  industrial  health.  Other  general  public  health 
activities  are,  of  course,  carried  on  among  the  small  towns  and  communities  in 
the  unorganized  territory  as  will  be  noted  hereinafter. 

It  has  been  our  custom  to  present  each  year  through  the  medium  of  the 
annual  report  some  new  or  added  feature  which,  if  found  practicable  upon 
investigation  and  taken  up  by  the  industry,  might  add  further  to  the  margin  of 
safety  already  provided,  increase  the  comforts  of  the  men  employed,  and  still 
perhaps  permit  of  greater  economy  by  the  changing  of  our  plans  somewhat, 
and  also  by  the  application  of  a  more  practical  brand  of  supervision. 

During  the  year,  therefore,  while  carrying  on  our  regular  duties  among  the 
forest  products  industries  we  have,  on  occasion,  come  across  many  injured 
workmen  lying  in  the  bunk  houses  when  they  should  apparently  have  been 
provided  for  in  some  hospital.  In  dealing  with  these  cases  it  became  necessary 
to  discuss  the  reason  for  this  apparent  neglect  with  the  company  physician 
and  with  the  management  itself,  and  at  times  deal  with  direct  complaints  from 
the  injured  men.  On  investigating  these  cases  the  whole  field  of  accident 
prevention  and  of  the  mitigation  of  accident  severity  with  the  accompanying 
terrific  cost  of  paying  for  these  accidents  through  compensation  assessment, 
appeared  to  be  involved.  It  seemed  proper,  therefore,  having  the  machinery 
at  our  disposal,  that  we  undertake  a  study  of  this  whole  question  as  far  as  it 
is  related  to  the  general  lumberman  of  Ontario,  and  to  the  pulp  and  paper 
industry.  The  similarity  of  these  two  institutions  is  such  that  any  solution  to 
the  problems  of  one  must  necessarily  rebound  to  the  benefit  and  advantage  of  the 
other. 

A  study  of  the  woods  operations  of  both  industries  brings  out  the  somewhat 
startling  fact  that  up  until  the  winter  of  1925  no  work  whatever  had  been  under- 
taken among  the  30,000  men  who  labour  in  the  w^ood  cutting  camps  throughout 
Northern  Ontario  and  from  which,  during  1923,  came  the  astonishing  record  of 
3,421  men  injured  and  46  killed.  Then  add  to  this  the  record  of  our  saw  mills 
which  is  1,590  men  injured  and  6  killed.  We  have,  then,  for  the  year  a  grand 
total  covering  the  lumber  camps  of  Ontario,  with  the  saw  mills  in  connection 
therewith,  of  5,011  men  injured  and  52  killed,  with  a  cost  to  the  industries  of 
upward  of  81,000,000,  or  as  has  been  estimated  by  the  industries  themselves  an 
added  cost  of  50  cents  to  every  1,000  feet  of  lumber  produced  and  30  cents  added 
to  every  cord  of  pulp  wood  cut. 

Without  going  into  detail  as  to  the  cause  of  many  of  these  accidents  let 
me  say  at  once  that  a  large  percentage  of  these  accidents  and  fatalities  can  and 
must  be  prevented.  Let  me  add  also  that  the  disability  arising  out  of  neglect  to 
the  injured  man,  which  neglect  extends  the  period  of  the  incapacity  of  the  worker 
and  endangers  his  life,  must  also  receive  a  new  attention  or  the  industries  will 
still  continue  to  turn  out  as  a  by-product  the  cripples  and  helpless  wrecks  which 
have  been  becoming  more  and  more  numerous  during  the  last  five  years. 

The  medical  statement  compiled  from  the  records  of  industrial  physicians 
that  60  per  cent,  of  all  open  wounds  seen  by  the  doctor  are  infected  when  the 
wounded  men  come  to  him  from  the  woods,  means  that  life  and  limb  are  being 
thoughtlessly  endangered,  much  unnecessary  suffering  is  being  endured,  and 
compensation  costs  to  the  industry  are  thereby  increased  at  least  five  times  what 
they  normally  should  be.  This  in  brief,  is  the  result  of  such  investigation  as  we 
have  carried  on. 


28 THE  REPORT  OF  THE Xo.  14 

Many  meetings  have  been  attended  at  the  request  of  the  accident  prevention 
associations  of  both  industries,  and  while  the  plan  proposed  by  your  officials 
has  not  been  adopted  in  its  entire  detail,  there  is,  nevertheless,  a  sufficient 
adherence  to  our  original  ideas  which,  if  carried  out  wholeheartedly  and  intel- 
ligently, should  bring  a  very  great  measure  of  success  in  reducing  the  number  of 
accidents  and  should  also  bring  about  a  substantial  reduction  in  compensation 
costs. 

We  are,  therefore,  able  to  say  that  in  part  at  least  the  work  of  the  division 
has  very  materially  brought  to  the  attention  of  the  industries  and  to  the  depart- 
ment, the  need  for  some  new  action  with  respect  to  this  subject,  and  it  is  very 
gratifying  to  be  able  to  report  that  the  lumbermen  of  Ontario  have  already 
re-organized  and  augmented  the  present  accident  field  forces  and  have  actually 
started  work. 

The  Pulp  and  Paper  Association  have  also  completed  plans  and  are  to  begin 
work  among  the  woods  camps  almost  at  once.  It  remains  to  be  seen,  of  course, 
whether  the  present  plan  will  succeed.  It  should  be  gratifying,  however,  to 
the  Department  of  Health  to  know'that  the  work  of  its  officials  has  in  a  large 
measure,  been  the  means  of  bringing  this  m^ost  serious  matter  up  for  consideration 
and  in  seeing  the  work  actually  commenced.  To  my  mind  this  has  been  a  most 
productive  piece  of  work. 

There  has  been  nothing  of  special  interest  during  the  year  in  connection 
with  our  usual  work.  Regular  routine  visits  have  been  made  to  saw  mills, 
lumber  camps,  mines,  construction  camps,  small  tow^ns  and  villages,  etc., 
and  while  we  have  encountered  the  usual  difficulties,  such  as  I  have  reported 
from  year  to  year,  yet  we  have  continued  to  advance  in  a  sanitary  sense  and  have 
also  consolidated  our  gains  of  other  years. 

There  is  still  some  difficulty  in  inducing  the  lumberjack  to  fully  appre- 
ciate the  good  effort  which  is  being  made  by  the  employer  to  supply 
good  housing  conditions.  One  often  finds  beds  wantonly  destroyed,  cuspidors 
upset  and  ventilators  plugged  up.  As  discussed  in  my  last  report  the  education 
of  the  employee  is  noW'  considered  of  paramount  importance  for  the  future  and 
our  next  step,  but  just  how  this  may  be  accomplished  is  difficult  because  of  the 
transient  nature  of  the  employee.  Hopes  are  entertained,  however,  that  as 
wages  improve  and  living  conditions  become  more  attractive,  men  may  stay 
longer  and  may  even  return  to  the  camps  year  after  year  and  thus  begin  to  take 
an  interest  in  their  surroundings  and  in  themselves. 

Due  to  trade  conditions  the  manufacture  of  lumber  has  been  much  curtailed 
this  year.  The  drop  in  the  total  number  of  men  employed  in  the  woods  is  not 
nearly  so  great  as  it  was  at  first  expected,  however. 

There  are  throughout  the  north  150  companies  with  424  camps  which 
give  employment  to  21,916  men.  In  addition  to  these  we  have  also  situated  in 
the  unorganized  territory: 

60  saw  mills,  employing 4,657  men 

61  mines,  employing 2,300  men 

53  road  camps,  employing 1,725  men 

S3  extra  gangs,  employing 2,865  men 

5  paper  mills,  employing 3,175  men 

/  construction  companies,  employing 2,600  men 

2  fishing  stations,  employing 175  men 

We  have,  therefore,  a  grand  total  of  39,413  men  employed  in  the  685  industrial 
camps  throughout  the  unorganized  territory. 

In  connection  with  this  work  146  medical  and  sanitary  contracts  have  been 
received  and  accepted  by  the  department  as  being  satisfactory  to  cover  the 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 29 

work  to  be  undertaken.  General  information  from  the  companies  has  also 
accompanied  each  of  these  agreements  showing  the  nature  and  extent  of  the  work 
covered. 

The  number  of  monthly  reports  received  during  the  year  from  these  industrial 
physicians  is  653,  together  with  158  sketches  of  new  camp  buildings. 

The  total  number  of  camp  inspections  made  by  your  staff  of  sanitary 
inspectors  is  483.  Additional  visits  have  also  been  made  to  mines,  small  towns, 
summer  resorts,  rural  school  houses,  dairies,  fishing  stations,  railway  extra 
gangs,  saw  mills,  paper  mills  and  construction  camps  and  in  addition  our  western 
inspector,  Mr.  Millar,  has  inspected  and  taken  water  samples  from  395  ships 
calling  at  the  ports  of  Fort  William  and  Port  Arthur.  The  total  number  of 
inspections  made  by  your  staff  of  inspectors  (without  consideration  of  the  visits 
paid  to  lake  ^•essels)  is  573.  This  number  of  inspections  added  to  those  made 
by  the  contract  physicians  already  mentioned,  gives  a  grand  total  of  1,226 
inspections. 

Communicable  Diseases 

Communicable  diseases  until  recent  years  were  almost  an  every  day  occur- 
rence. Each  year  has,  however,  seen  a  substantial  reduction  in  the  annual 
case  record,  until  to-day  such  diseases  as  typhoid  fever  and  smallpox  have 
almost  vanished.  This  happy  state  of  affairs  is,  of  course,  not  wholly  attribut- 
able to  good  supervision  (although  I  am  confident  this  plays  a  major  part)  but 
rather  to  the  fact  that  the  early  cases  are  concentrated  upon  and  no  stone  left 
unturned  in  an  effort  to  prevent  the  further  spread,  which  is  usually  successful. 

The  knowledge  of  how  diseases  are  spread  is  gradually  being  imparted  to 
the  management  and  also  to  the  men,  so  that  to-day  unsanitary  conditions 
which  gave  rise  to  typhoid  fever  and  dysentery  are  becoming  less  numerous. 
Our  case  record  for  the  year,  therefore,  is  particularly  pleasing: 

Cases  Deaths 

Typhoid  fever 3  0 

Smallpox 3  0 

Mumps 2  0 

Total 8  0 

We  have  also  dealt  with  such  communicable  diseases  as  came  to  our  notice 
in  the  small  towns  throughout  the  north  and  which  included  scarlet  fever  at 
Spragge,  Franz,  Goulais  Bay  and  Walford,  and  also  with  the  smallpox  out- 
breaks at  Atikokan,  Rocky  Inlet  and  Glenorchy.  As  these  cases  developed 
in  small  unorganized  towns  I  have  separated  these  cases  from  those  which 
developed  in  connection  with  our  industrial  camp  work.  I  should  mention 
here  that  fully  six  weeks  of  our  western  inspector's  time  was  taken  up  with  this 
Atikokan  outbreak  and  this,  of  course,  curtailed  his  other  work. 

During  the  year  much  of  my  time  has  been  spent  going  over  the  various 
districts,  noting  new  developments  and  making  provision  to  meet  new  problems, 
and  also  in  improving  the  relationship  between  physician  and  management  and 
in  making  the  policy  of  the  department  better  understood. 

Opportunities  to  attend  and  speak  at  public  health  conferences  and  at  meet- 
ings held  in  the  interests  of  accident  prevention  have  been  taken  full  advantage 
of.  These  meetings  have  been  most  instructive  and  provide  a  good  indication 
of  public  opinion. 

The  appointment  of  an  additional  inspector  for  the  Cochrane  district  is 
now  settled.  The  filling  of  this  position  permits  the  taking  up  of  other  work 
without  disorganizing  our  office  routine.     This  appointment  comes  at  a  most 


30 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

opportune  time  as  the  huge  construction  work  of  our  northern  paper  mills  is 
about  to  begin.  I  look  forward  to  1926  as  possibly  the  banner  year  in  northern 
industrial  activity. 

Great  credit  is  due  our  staff  of  inspectors  for  the  painstaking  effort  put 
forward  during  the  year.  Each  inspector  has  striven  to  improve  conditions 
in  his  respective  district  and  that  these  efforts  have  been  successful  is  well 
evidenced  by  the  amount  of  work  performed,  and  by  the  almost  total  absence 
of  communicable  diseases,  which  is  after  all  the  true  indication  of  successful 
supervision. 

It  gives  me  great  pleasure,  therefore,  to  convey  to  you  this  the  annual 
report  covering  the  work  of  your  sanitary  inspectors  and  of  the  industrial 
physicians  who  have  so  successfully  catered  to  the  needs  of  industry  and  to  the 
army  of  employees  scattered  throughout  northern  Ontario  for  the  year  1925. 


1926  PROVIXCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH  31 


DIVISION  OF  CHILD  HYGIENE 
J.  T.  Phair,  M.B.,   D.P.H.,   Director 


During  the  first  two  weeks  of  January  it  was  made  possible  for  the  members 
of  the  nursing  staff  to  take  the  extension  course  in  public  health  nursing  offered 
by  the  University  of  Toronto.  At  the  conclusion  of  the  course  the  entire  staff 
moved  on  to  Sarnia,  and  I  feel  justified  in  saying  that  they  contributed  very 
materially  to  the  success  of  the  Health  \^'eek  which  was  held  there  during  the 
week  of  January  19th. 

About  May  1st,  the  scope  of  the  division  was  enlarged  to  include  the  school 
health  activities  formerly  carried  on  by  the  Department  of  Education,  the 
central  administration  of  which  had  been  recently  transferred  to  the  Depart- 
ent  of  Health.  This  amalgamation  demanded  some  readjustments,  and  the 
new  division  is  now  headed  up  by  Dr.  J.  T.  Phair,  formerly  Provincial  Chief 
School  Medical  Officer. 

The  appointment  of  Dr.  W.  J.  Bell,  who  had  for  four  years  been  pediatrician 
to  the  di\ision,  to  the  position  of  Deputy  Minister,  left  a  gap  that  will  be  exceed- 
ingly difficult  to  fill.  The  inclusion  of  the  field  staff  of  the  Division  of  School 
Hygiene,  has  resulted  in  three  physicians  and  six  nurses  being  added  to  the 
previously  existing  staff. 

The  new  regulations  governing  school  medical  inspection  and  school  nursing 
have  now  been  in  actual  operation  for  nearly  a  year  in  several  municipalities, 
and  have  apparently  more  than  justified  their  introduction.  At  the  close  of 
the  year,  seven  urban  municipalities  and  one  rural  had  adopted  the  plan  outlined. 

The  necessity  for  an  extension  of  the  work  already  being  done  in  Northern 
Ontario  and  the  more  sparsely  settled  portions  of  Southern  Ontario,  has  been 
realized,  and  the  temporary-  assumption  by  the  department  of  the  responsibility 
for  supplying  a  reasonable  measure  of  public  health  nursing  service  for  these 
districts  was  decided  upon.  This  will  be  continued  as  an  experiment  for  another 
year.  The  service  given  by  the  department  to  the  people  resident  along  the 
borders  of  James  and  Hudson's  Bay,  which  work  is  carried  on  by  Dr.  Cockburn 
of  the  medical  staff  of  this  division,  is  much  appreciated  and,  it  is  hoped,  will  be 
continued  during  1926. 

The  interest  of  the  Minister,  Hon.  Dr.  Godfrey,  in  the  needs  of  the  north 
country,  was  evidenced  by  his  active  participation  in  a  series  of  diagnostic 
clinics  which  were  held  at  various  centres  far  removed  from  the  possible  service 
of  a  pediatrician.  The  attendance  and  interest  shown  at  these  clinics  is 
convincing  proof  of  the  value  of  such  service.

THE  REPORT  OF  THE 


Xo.  14 


THE  REGISTRAR-GENERAL'S  BRANCH 

S.  J.  Manchester,  Director 


A  report  respecting  the  Registrar-General's  Branch  appears  for  the  first 
time  in  the  annual  report  of  the  Department  of  Health.  This  is  due  to  the  fact 
that  during  the  year  this  branch  was  transferred  from  the  Provincial  Secretary's 
Department,  under  which  it  had  functioned  for  man}^  years,  to  the  Department 
of  Health. 

No  attempt  is  made  to  elaborate  in  this  report  the  vital  statistics  of  Ontario. 
The  report  respecting  the  Registration  of  Births,  Deaths  and  Marriages  is 
compiled  and  issued  as  a  separate  volume. 

A  summary  is  herewith  presented.

Certificates  and  Fees 

The  work  of  this  branch  has  increased  enormously  in  so  far  as  the  issuing 
of  certificates  is  concerned.  Approximately  30,000  certificates  were  issued 
during  the  year. 

An  important  change  which  took  place  during  the  year,  to  be  exact  on 
October  6th,  was  an  amendment  in  the  fees  for  service.  Up  to  this  date  the 
fee  for  a  search  covering  a  three-year  period  for  one  registration  was  25  cents, 
and  for  a  certificate  50  cents  in  addition  to  this  fee.  On  October  6th  the  fees 
became  50  cents  for  a  search  covering  the  same  period  and  SI  additional  for  the 
certificate.  With  the  increase  of  the  fees  for  official  certificates  the  department 
decided  to  make  searches  for  mothers'  allowances  purposes  and  for  pension 
and  insurance  purposes  in  the  cases  of  returned  soldiers  without  any  charge 
whatever. 

Old  Records 

While  the  branch  has  no  records  of  births  or  deaths  prior  to  July  1st,  1869, 
the  date  on  which  registration  of  births,  marriages  and  deaths  became  legally 
effective,  the  branch  had  for  many  years  marriage  registers  which  had  been 
gathered  from  some  sources  now  forgotten,  which  date  back  in  some  cases  to 
the  "forties."  These  do  not  by  any  means  constitute  anything  like  complete 
records  but  such  as  they  are  they  are  now  available.     Although  they  had  been

DIMSIOX  OF  DENTAL  SERVICES 
F.  J.  CoxBOY,  D.D.S.,  Director 


In  presenting  my  first  annual  report  I  desire  to  place  on  record  my  sincere 
appreciation  of  the  assistance  and  co-operation  which  I  have  received  from  all 
those  associated  with  me  in  the  Department  of  Health.  As  a  result  of  this 
friendly  and  helpful  relationship,  we  have  been  able  to  accomplish  a  work  far 
beyond  our  expectations  and  we  will  start  upon  our  second  year  under  conditions 
which  are  in  every  way  most  promising. 

The  achievements  of  the  year  would,  however,  have  been  impossible  without 
the  sympathetic  and  active  support  which  the  department  received  from  the 
dentists  of  Ontario.  As  individuals  and  as  an  association,  the  members  of  the 
profession  have  done  everything  in  their  power  to  make  the  work  of  the  Director 
of  Dental  Services  as  easy  and  as  successful  as  possible. 

The  individual  dentists  have  freely  given  their  time  to  conduct  surveys, 
to  give  dental  health  lectures  and,  in  a  general  way,  to  promote  the  various 
activities  of  the  programme  presented  by  the  department.  The  time  involved 
in  the  performance  of  these  tasks  is  deserving  of  notice  as  many  dentists  were 
away  from  their  offices  for  a  number  of  days  as  the  inspection  not  only  included 
the  children  in  the  cities  and  towns  but  also  the  boys  and  girls  who  attended 
the  small  rural  schools.  The  contribution  made  is  the  more  noteworthy  when 
we  consider  that  these  men  provided  their  own  transportation  and  cheerfully 
met  other  incidental  expenses  connected  with  the  inspection. 

The  Ontario  Dental  Association  through  its  Oral  Hygiene  Committee  has 
supplied  much  material  which  has  been  used  in  connection  with  the  Dental 
Health  Educational  Campaign.  Moving  picture  films,  booklets,  slides,  news- 
paper articles  and  a  lantern  have  been  placed  at  the  disposal  of  the  department 
and  these  have  been  sent  to  all  parts  of  the  Province.  The  association,  through 
its  local  committees  has  arranged  many  public  meetings  and  has  provided 
speakers  so  that  the  importance  of  dental  health  might  be  brought  to  the  attention 
of  the  various  service  clubs  and  the  support  of  these  organizations  might  be 
secured. 

The  first  activity  undertaken  by  the  Division  was  to  arrange  for  a 
Province-wide  dental  survey  so  that  the  municipal  authorities  might  have 
an  accurate  idea  of  the  number  of  children  suffering  from  mouth  defects, 
and  the  cost  of  providing  treatment  for  those  who  could  not  receiv^e  dental 
attention  in  the  regular  way.  This  initial  inspection  is  still  being  carried 
on  and  nearly  two  hundred  thousand  children  have  been  examined.  In 
places  where  there  is  no  permanent  school  dental  service,  the  local  men  give 
their  time  gratuitously  to  make  this  examination  and  in  many  places  all  the 
dentists  closed  their  ofifices  for  three  or  four  days  in  order  to  conduct  the  survey. 
Notification  cards,  provided  by  the  Department  of  Health  and  upon  which  the 
examining  dentist  marked  the  defects  which  were  present  in  the  child's  mouth 
were  sent  to  the  parents  and  an  earnest  efTort  made  to  see  that  proper  dental 
attention  was  given.  In  many  municipalities  where  the  number  of  children 
whose  parents  could  not  afford  to  pay  ordinary  fees  was  not  sufificiently  large  to 
warrant  the  establishment  of  a  school  clinic,  a  special  arrangement  was  made 
with  the  local  dentists  and  in  that  way  the  much  needed  attention  was  given. 
The  survey  revealed  some  very  startling  information.  Of  the  many  thousands 
of  children  examined  the  statistics    showed    that  over  92   per  cent,  of  all  the 


40 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

children  had  dental  defects  in  either  their  first  or  second  teeth  and  that  these 
cavities  numbered  on  an  average  over  four  per  child.  Fifty  per  cent,  of  those 
examined  had  unclean  mouths  and  five  out  of  every  hundred  showed  such  a 
septic  condition  as  to  be  extremely  detrimental  to  health.  Less  than  15  per 
cent,  had  received  any  dental  attention  outside  of  extraction,  and  10  per  cent, 
had  irregular  or  crooked  teeth. 

Similar  investigations  made  by  the  department  among  the  workers  in 
industries  and  the  patients  in  hospitals  disclosed  the  fact  that  while  decay  was 
not  as  rampant  among  the  adults  as  in  the  case  of  the  children,  the  number  of 
cases  of  so-called  pyorrhea  was  enormous  and  the  mouth  conditions  from  the 
standpoint  of  infection  were  alarming. 

It  is  now  generally  recognized  that  dentistry  is  a  health  essential  and  when 
the  people  cannot  afford  to  pay  the  regular  fees  some  special  arrangement  must 
be  made  so  that  they  may  be  able  to  receive  dental  attention.  These  organiza- 
tions take  the  form  of  school  dental  services,  hospital  dental  departments, 
industrial  clinics  and  travelling  dentists  for  the  unorganized  parts  of  the  Province. 

Satisfactory  progress  has  been  made  in  the  establishment  of  school  dental 
services.  The  clinics  are  of  various  kinds  to  suit  local  conditions.  In  the  large 
centres  a  school  equipment  is  purchased  and  a  dental  officer  engaged  to  spend 
full  or  part  time  in  making  a  dental  examination  of  all  the  children  and  giving 
dental  treatment  to  those  whose  parents  cannot  provide  it.  In  smaller  places 
the  school  or  health  authorities  enter  into  an  arrangement  with  the  local  dentist 
whereby  the  children  are  sent  to  his  office  at  stated  times,  he  providing 
the  necessary  material  and  being  paid  a  set  amount  per  operation  or 
so  much  per  hour.  In  many  small  communities,  the  dentists  are  providing 
treatment  for  the  poor  without  remuneration  or  reward  of  any  kind.  In  con- 
nection with  the  school  work  an  earnest  effort  is  being  made  to  impress  upon  the 
dentists,  teachers  and  nurses  the  importance  of  protecting  the  deciduous  or 
first  teeth  and  the  clinics  are  kept  open  on  Saturday  mornings  in  order  that 
mothers  may  bring  the  young  children  for  examination,  advice  and  treatment. 

The  hospital  dental  departments  are  filling  a  great  need  in  connection 
with  the  treatment  of  the  sick.  It  is  conceded  by  all  outstanding  physicians 
that  it  is  impossible  to  make  much  progress  in  the  treatment  of  some  patients 
unless  the  mouth  conditions  are  improved  and  the  active  co-operation  between 
medical  men  and  dentists  in  connection  with  hospital  services  is  of  distinct 
advantage  to  the  patients.  Most  of  the  hospitals  in  the  large  cities  now  have 
indoor  departments  and  the  work  is  extending  to  the  hospitals  in  the  towns. 
In  addition  to  the  indoor  work,  some  hospitals  are  conducting  outdoor  clinics  and 
treating  many  people  who  could  not  get  dental  attention  in  any  other  way. 
The  Western  Hospital,  Toronto,  conducts  a  three-chair  clinic  and  there  are 
twenty-nine  members  on  the  staff.  The  dentists  not  only  relieve  suffering 
and  remove  infection,  but  fillings  are  inserted  and  dentures  constructed  in  order 
that  masticating  efficiency  may  be  restored. 

Very  little  progress  has  been  made  as  yet  in  connection  with  the  industrial 
clinics,  although  many  concerns  have  been  visited  and  the  benefits  of  a  dental 
service  presented  to  the  executive  heads  of  the  firms.  The  industrial  depression 
has  made  it  impossible  for  manufacturers  and  others  to  attempt  any  work  which 
might  entail  additional  expense,  but  the  educational  efforts  will  certainly  bring 
beneficial  results  as  soon  as  financial  conditions  improve.  Most  employers 
realize  the  necessity  of  keeping  the  worker  in  good  physical  condition  and  are 
convinced  that  dental  infection  to  a  very  large  extent  decreases  efficiency. 
Although  only  two  such  clinics  were  established  during  the  past  year,  we  have 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 41 

every  reason  to  believe  that  within  the  next  twelve  months  this  number  will  be 
greatly  augmented  and  the  factory  dental  service  will  be  a  part  of  every  well 
equipped  and  properly  organized  industrial  plant. 

\'ery  happy  results  have  been  obtained  in  connection  with  the  effort  to 
supply  a  dental  service  in  all  parts  of  the  Province.  It  was  recognized  that 
many  people  had  to  travel  long  distances  in  order  to  reach  a  centre  where  there 
was  a  resident  dentist.  The  result  was  that  the  people  could  not  afford  to  spend 
the  necessary  time  and  money  and  the  teeth  were  neglected.  The  department 
set  itself  to  the  task  of  providing  itinerant  dentists  and  travelling  clinics  so  that 
a  dentist  could  visit  a  small  community,  stay  there  until  the  work  was  completed 
and  then  travel  on  to  a  new  district.  The  arrangement  has  been  entirely 
successful,  the  people  have  been  well  pleased  with  the  services  rendered,  and  the 
dentists  have  received  sufficient  remuneration  to  make  the  efTort  well  worth  while. 
The  itinerant  dentist  promises  to  be  a  satisfactory  and  permanent  health  agent 
in  this  Province. 

The  providing  of  a  much  needed  dental  service  for  school  children,  patients 
in  hospitals,  industrial  workers  and  the  people  in  the  sparsely  settled  parts  of  the 
Province  is  quite  essential,  but  the  most  important  work  of  the  department 
has  to  do  with  dental  health  education.  Mouth  diseases  must  be  prevented, 
and  in  order  to  accomplish  this  most  laudable  purpose  the  protective  programme 
must  be  brought  to  the  attention  of  the  people.  The  people  must  not  only 
be  informed  that  it  is  dangerous  to  the  physical  well-being  to  allow  dental 
infection  to  remain  in  the  mouth,  but  they  must  also  be  frequently  reminded. 
They  must  also  be  taught  how  to  prevent  dental  diseases  and  encouraged  to 
follow  out  the  preventive  programme  worked  out  by  the  department.  To 
accomplish  this  purpose  hundreds  of  lectures  on  oral  hygiene  have  been  given 
and  articles  on  dental  health  have  been  placed  in  the  leading  papers.  Very 
gratifying  support  in  this  connection  has  been  received  from  Women's  Institutes, 
Home  and  School  Clubs,  service  clubs  and  many  welfare  organizations.  This 
encouragement  has  induced  the  department  to  arrange  for  a  Dental  Health  Day 
to  be  held  on  October  20th,  1926,  when  instruction  on  oral  hygiene  and  preventive 
dentistry  will  be  given  in  every  part  of  the  Province.  Physicians,  educationalists, 
dentists,  nurses  and  many  welfare  and  service  organizations  have  promised  to 
co-operate  and  the  success  of  the  undertaking  is  already  assured.

From  examination  of  the  above  tables  the  following  points  should  be  noted : 

1.  That  a  total  of  139,630  specimens  were  examined  by  the  public  health 
laboratories  during  the  year  1925. 

2.  That  the  total  specimens  examined  at  all  laboratories  showed  an  increase 
of  42,651. 

3.  That  this  increase  is  largely  accounted  for  by  increased  activities  at  the 
main  laboratory  in  Toronto  and  the  branch  laboratory  at  London. 


44  THE  REPORT  OF  THE  No.  14 

4.  That  the  number  of  diagnostic  outfits  prepared  by  the  staff  of  the  main 
laboratory  also  showed  a  marked  increase. 

A  short  summary  of  the  activities  of  the  different  sections  of  the  division 
of  laboratories  follows: 

I.  Bacteriology 
(a)  Diphtheria  Cultures. 

Swabs  coming  into  the  central  post  office  are  collected  daily  at  4  o'clock. 
These  are  brought  to  the  laboratory  for  culture. 

Direct  smear  examinations  are  made  on  all  swabs  from  new  cases.  On  those 
that  show  morphologically  typical  diphtheria  bacilli,  the  result  is  immediately 
conveyed  to  the  physician  by  wire  or  long  distance  telephone. 

Swabs  from  new  cases  on  which  direct  smears  were  made 1,396 

New  cases  showing  diphtheria  bacilli  on  direct  smear 93 

New  cases  showing  no  diphtheria  bacilli  on  direct  smear  but  which  were  positive  on  culture  270 

New  cases  showing  no  diphtheria  bacilli  on  direct  smear  and  which  were  negative  on  culture  1,033 

We  were  therefore  able  to  give  the  physician  an  immediate  positive  result 
in  25  per  cent,  of  the  swabs  whith  contained  diphtheria  bacilli. 

Two  thousand  six  hundred  and  eighty-three  more  cultures  were  examined  at 
the  main  Laboratory  in  1925  than  during  the  preceding  year. 

Four  hundred  and  forty-nine  virulence  tests  were  made  upon  guinea  pigs 
to  determine  whether  organisms  in  cultures  were  toxin  producing  diphtheria 
bacilli.  Virulence  tests  are  performed  on  cultures  from  patients  who  have  been 
more  than  four  weeks  in  quarantine,  on  contacts  and  suspected  carriers  harbour- 
ing diphtheria-like  bacilli.  This  practice  prevents  a  person  from  being  kept  in 
quarantine  any  longer  than  is  absolutely  necessary  to  safeguard  the  public 
health. 

{b)   Typhoid  Diagnosis. 

A  new  outfit  was  gotten  out  consisting  of  a  mailing  case  with  a  small  glass 
tube  for  collecting  from  3  to  5  cc's.  of  whole  blood  from  suspected  cases  of 
typhoid  fever.  This  outfit  offers  many  advantages  over  the  dried  blood  method, 
in  that  accurate  dilutions  of  the  serum  ranging  from  1-20  up  to  1-640  can  be 
made  and  the  exact  dilution  agglutinating  typhoid  or  paratyphoid  organisms 
can  be  determined.  The  blood  clot  may  be  cultured  for  living  typhoid  bacilli. 
It  occasionally  happens  that  a  sample  of  blood  will  not  agglutinate  typhoid 
bacilli  but  will  show  the  organism  on  culture.  This  occurs  in  early  cases  where 
typhoid  bacilli  are  invading  the  blood  stream  but  in  which  the  body  has  not 
gone  on  far  enough  in  the  battle  to  produce  immune  bodies  such  as  agglutinins, 
etc. 

Also  in  cases  which  give  a  history  of  previous  attack  or  of  having  received 
typhoid  vaccine  an  increasing  titre  in  specimens  taken  four  or  five  days  apart 
would  indicate  typhoid  infection,  whereas  if  the  serum  continued  to  only  aggluti- 
nate the  organisms  in  low  dilution  such  as  1-20  or  1-40,  this  would  be  against  the 
diagnosis  of  typhoid  infection. 

While  it  is  a  little  more  difficult  to  obtain  the  blood  the  advantages  of  the 
method  far  offset  the  disadvantages.  We  still  get  many  specimens  of  dried 
blood  with  such  a  small  drop  of  the  material  that  a  satisfactory  examination 
cannot  be  made. 

We  hope  physicians  will  make  use  of  this  new  outfit. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 45 

(c)  Preparation  of  Bacterial  Vaccines. 

At  the  main  laboratories  the  following  bacterial  vaccines  were  prepared: 

(1)  Typhoid  Monovalent  X'accine. 

This  vaccine  contains   1,000  million  dead   typhoid  baccilli  per  cubic 
centimeter. 

(2)  Typhoid-Paratyphoid  \'accine. 
This  vaccine  contains: 

B.  tvphosus 1,000  million  per  cc. 

B.  paratyphosus  "A" 500         "         " 

B.  paratyphosus  "B" 500         "         " 

The  reaction  following  the  administration  of  the  combined  vaccine  is  more 
severe  than  with  the  monovalent  vaccine  on  account  of  the  additional  amount 
of  bacteria  protein.  As  paratyphoid  fever  is  negligible  in  Ontario  we  consider 
that  the  typhoid  vaccine  will  give  sufficient  protection. 

(d)  Pertussis  or  Whooping  Cough  Vaccine. 

During  the  past  year  we  increased  the  number  of  organisms  from  2,000 
to  4,000  per  cubic  centimeter  in  order  that  the  previous  bulky  injections  could  be 
reduced  to  one-half  their  size  and  still  contain  the  required  number  of  Bordet's 
bacilli. 

There  has  been  a  steadih-  increasing  demand  for  this  product.  We  prepared 
and  distributed  1,000  more  10  cc  vials  of  this  vaccine  this  year  than  during 
any  previous  year. 

We  make  it  a  policy  in  preparing  and  distributing  vaccines  that  they  should 
be  used  within  sbc  months  from  the  date  of  preparation  in  the  case  of  typhoid 
vaccine  and  within  four  months  for  Pertussis  vaccine.  Each  bottle  bears  a 
serial  number  and  the  date,  after  which  the  vaccine  should  be  discarded. 

(e)  Autogenous   Vaccines. 

A  number  of  autogenous  vaccines  were  prepared  for  physicians  on  special 
reque'st.  Material  for  these  vaccines  were  taken  from  recurring  crops  of  boils, 
sputum  from  cases  of  bronchitis  and  asthma  and  chronic  diseased  sinuses,  etc. 
An  increasing  number  of  these  are  being  received  and  as  each  one  requires  the 
time  of  a  skilled  worker,  I  think  a  definite  policy  regarding  them  should  be 
decided  upon  as  there  is  no  doubt  that  a  lot  of  them  are  useless  in  therapeutics 
and  are  costly  to  the  department  in  time,  culture  media  and  animals  used  for 
purity  tests  on  the  finished  product. 

II.  Serology 
Wassermann  Reaction. 

We  have  continued  to  use  Kolmer's  method  in  all  our  Wassermann  examin- 
ations on  blood  and  spinal  fluid  specimens.  During  the  past  year  an  effort 
was  made  to  have  the  London  laboratory  serve  the  south-western  section  of  the 
Province.  Tests  are  performed  at  London  by  exactly  the  same  method.  Despite 
this  effort  we  were  called  upon  to  examine  3,081  more  specimens  in  1925  than 
during  the  previous  year.  This  represents  an  increase  in  the  volume  of  work 
of  13.5  per  cent,  over  the  previous  year.  Tests  were  performed  four  days  per 
week. 


46 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

Wassermann  tests  are  now  included  in  the  routine  of  the  branch  laboratory, 
Ottawa.     This  should  ease  the  pressure  of  work  on  the  main  laboratory  in  1926. 

In  addition  to  the  Wassermann  test,  Kahn  precipitation  tests  were  performed 
on  all  serums  received.  This  has  proven  to  be  a  valuable  check  on  the  Wasser- 
mann reaction.  Results  agreeing  as  they  do  in  over  95  per  cent,  of  cases  give 
to  all  concerned  a  feeling  of  security  and  satisfaction  which  could  not  be  obtained 
by  any  one  Wassermann  technique  alone. 

The  laboratories  were  advised  during  the  year  to  discontinue  placing 
needles  in  the  outfits  for  withdrawing  the  blood.  Whether  this  will  have  any 
effect  upon  the  number  of  blood  specimens  taken  will  be  revealed  during  the 
present  year.  The  department  now  supplies  outfits  with  needles  at  the  rate 
of  one  dollar  per  dozen.  It  is  now  nearly  six  months  since  discontinuing  the 
needle  in  routine  outfits  and  very  few  complaints  have  been  received.  The 
present  system  will  save  the  department  about  S2,000  per  annum. 

III.  Chemistry 

(a)  M  Ik  Samplis. 

The  milks  received  at  this  laboratory  for  test  are  submitted  by  the 
cities,  towns,  villages  and  rural  communities,  contiguous  to  Toronto,  which 
have  no  laboratory  or  means  of  testing  their  supply.  The  increase  in  the  number 
of  milk  samples  tested  for  butter  fat  and  total  solids  indicates  that  some  progress 
is  being  made  in  our  endeavours  to  ensure  consumers  that  the  milk  sold  in 
Ontario  conforms  with  the  regulations. 

{h)  Blood  Sugar  Determinations. 

The  increase  in  the  number  of  specimens  of  blood  tested  for  sugar  content 
from  167  in  1924  to  534  during  1925  would  show  that  physicians  appreciate  the 
decision  of  the  department  to  include  this  determination  among  its  free  routine 
laboratory  tests. 

(c)  Alcoholic  Liquors. 

The  work  conducted  for  the  Liquor  License  Commission  during  1925 
consisted  of  testing  liquors  for  alcoholic  strength,  complete  analysis  of  medicinal 
preparations  submitted  under  section  126  of  the  Ontario  Temperance  Act  and 
research  to  obtain  a  preservative  to  arrest  fermentation  in  fermentable  samples. 
While  the  number  of  samples  tested  during  the  year  for  alcoholic  strength 
decreased  from  4,195  to  3,123  there  was  an  increase  in  the  number  of  samples 
requiring  complete  analysis  so  that  this  together  with  the  research  work  on 
preservative  made  the  total  amount  of  work  conducted  for  the  Commission  for 
1925  approximately  the  same  as  for  the  preceding  year.

{d)   Coal  Samples. 

For  a  number  of  years  the  main  laboratory  has  been  testing  the  coal,  as 
supplied  to  the  public  institutions  throughout  the  Province,  for  the  Public 
Works  and  the  Provincial  Secretary's  Departments.  The  summary  shows  that 
508  samples  were  examined  during  1925,  being  an  increase  of  276  over  the 
previous  year. 


1926 PROVINX^IAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 47 

(e)  Phenarsenamine. 

The  decision  of  the  department  to  purchase  the  "606"  required  in  the  treat- 
ment of  syphilis  resulted  in  our  ceasing  to  manufacture  this  product  on  November 
1st.  During  the  eleven  months  of  manufacturing  in  1925,  there  were  produced 
8,128  grams  of  the  drug  of  which  900  grams  was  sold  to  another  province. 

The  amount  of  mercury  salicylate  suspension,  prepared  and  distributed, 
was  practically  the  same  as  in  1924. 

During  the  year  several  of  the  physicians  in  charge  of  the  clinics  treating 
public  cases  of  syphilis  requested  that  they  be  supplied  with  a  bismuth  prepara- 
tion suitable  for  intramuscular  injection.  After  some  experimental  work,  a 
suspension  of  bismuth  hydrate  was  found  that  was  satisfactory  and  of  this 
preparation  2,230  ampoules  were  manufactured  and  distributed. 

There  were  5,110  more  ampoulesof  silver  nitrate  required  to  be  manufactured 
during  1925  than  in  the  previous  year. 

In  addition  to  the  foregoing,  the  Chemistry  Section  prepared  all  the  colloidal 
gold  solution,  ammonia  free  and  ordinary  distilled  water,  buffer  saline,  blood 
sugar  reagent  for  routine  blood  sugar  outfits  and  other  reagents  required  by  the 
Serological  and  Bacteriological  Sections. 

4.  Branxh  Laboratories 

The  Department  of  Health  maintains  branch  laboratories  at  the  following 
centres: 

Fort  William  Ottawa 

Sault  Ste.  Marie  Peterboro 

North  Bay  Owen  Sound 

By  special  arrangement  Queen's  University  and  Western  University  examine 
public  health  laboratory  specimens  at  Kingston  and  London,  respectively. 

The  total  number  of  specimens  examined  at  the  various  branch  laboratories 
again  shows  an  increase  over  previous  years. 

During  the  past  year,  Wassermann  tests  were  discontinued  at  the  laboratories 
at  North  Bay,  Owen  Sound  and  Peterboro,  owing  to  the  small  number  of 
specimens  received. 

All  of  the  laboratories  serve  as  stations  for  distribution  of  outfits  and 
biological  products. 

In  conclusion,  may  I  state  that  in  my  opinion  the  formation  of  the  Ministry 
of  Health  under  one  head  has  been  of  great  assistance  in  bringing  about  increased 
efficiency,  co-operation  and  co-ordination  of  effort  throughout  the  public  health 
service. 


48  THE  REPORT  OF  THE  No.  14 


DIVISION  OF  PUBLIC  HEALTH  EDUCATION 


Lamhton  County  Health  Week. 

The  first  work  which  the  division  was  asked  to  undertake  in  1925  was  to 
assist  in  connection  with  the  Lambton  County  Health  Week,  held  in  the  City 
of  Sarnia,  January  19th  to  24th,  inclusive.  This  was  in  response  to  the  request 
of  Dr.  W.  J.  Logie,  Medical  Ofificer  of  Health.  The  programme  which  was 
planned  to  provide  for  adult  and  children  medical  clinics,  was  submitted  to  the 
members  of  the  Lambton  County  Medical  Association  and  the  Lambton  County 
Dental  Association,  who,  after  due  consideration,  approved  it  and  promised 
their  active  support.  The  societies  more  than  made  good  their  promise  of 
co-operation.  Through  the  Lambton  County  Medical  Association  the  parent 
body,  the  Ontario  Medical  Association,  was  approached  and  the  prospective 
programme  and  plan  of  work  for  Health  Week,  was  declared  satisfactory. 

Community  Interests. 

The  business  men  of  the  county,  through  the  Chamber  of  Commerce,  were 
interested,  and  contributed  both  moral  and  financial  support.  The  social  and 
fraternal  organizations  of  the  county,  through  their  representatives  at  a  public 
meeting,  endorsed  the  idea  and  pledged  their  hearty  co-operation.  These 
representati\"es  were  divided  into  groups,  and  each  group  selected  one  of  the 
days  of  Health  Week,  which  day  was  to  be  the  special  day  for  the  co-operation 
of  that  group. 

Organization. 

The  district  officer  of  health  conducted  a  series  of  meetings  at  fifteen  rural 
points  in  the  county.  The  programme  consisted  of  moving  pictures,  music 
by  local  talent  and  a  health  address  by  the  district  officer.  These  meetings  were 
well  attended,  an  average  of  60  per  cent,  of  the  adult  population  of  each  place 
being  present. 

Lambton  Count>'  was  di\ided  into  small  sections,  one  public  health  nurse 
being  allotted  to  each,  with  the  result  that  a  satisfactory  survey  of  the  county 
was  made.  A  certain  amount  of  active  health  work  was  accomplished,  and 
widespread  propaganda  relative  to  the  proposed  Health  Week  was  issued  to  the 
homes  throughout  the  entire  county. 

Advertising. 

Publicity  for  the  undertaking  was  handled  by  means  of  talks  by  physicians 
and  dentists,  whereby  75  per  cent,  of  the  school  population  was  reached.  News- 
paper advertising  in  the  city  daily  and  five  rural  weeklies  reached  its  climax  in 
the  Health  Week  Supplement;  snappy  headings,  photographs  of  the  speakers, 
articles  on  timely  health  topics,  and  programme  for  the  week  vied  with  the 
unusually  profuse  advertising  which  referred  to  Health  Week  and  endeavoured 
on  health  grounds  to  demonstrate  in  each  instance  the  importance  of  taking  the 
advertiser's  advice. 

Posters,  plain  and  illustrated,  were  displayed  over  the  whole  county,  and 
in  the  churches  the  clergy  made  special  reference  to  Health  Week. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 4Q 

An  interesting  combination  of  health  pubHcity  and  commercial  advertising 
was  evident  on  the  main  business  streets  of  Sarnia  during  Health  Week.  A 
considerable  number  of  the  merchants  very  generously  gave  valuable  window- 
space  for  the  display  of  health  exhibits  prepared  and  set  up  by  the  Department 
of  Health  and  the  local  dental  association,  while  many  others  dressed  their 
windows  from  material  out  of  their  own  stock,  stressing  in  each  instance  the  value 
of  the  articles  shown  from  a  health  point  of  view. 

Clinics. 

We  were  fortunate  in  securing  ideal  premises  for  the  clinical  work  for  the 
occasion.  The  evening  meetings  were  held  in  a  large  auditorium,  of  one  of  the 
schools,  a  commodious  hall  seating  upwards  of  1,200,  which  was  filled  to  capacity 
for  each  of  the  five  evening  meetings. 

After  conference  with  the  local  medical  and  dental  groups  it  was  decided 
to  conduct  eight  special  types  of  clinical  work: 

\.  Children's  Clinic  to  include  infant,  pre-school  and  school  child. 

2.  Adult  Medical  Clinic. 

3.  Occupational  Disease  Clinic. 

4.  Chest  Clinic. 

5.  Orthopedic  Clinic. 

6.  Eye  Clinic. 

7.  Dental  Clinic. 

8.  Ear,  Nose  and  Throat  Clinic. 

It  will  be  noted  that  the  first  five  are  what  may  be  termed  diagnostic  clinics 
and  the  latter  three  treatment  clinics. 

The  total  number  dealt  with  at  the  clinics  was  1,058. 

Consultants. 

A  feature  of  the  work  was  a  series  of  special  clinics  conducted  by  consultants 
from  the  outside  supplied  for  Health  Week  by  the  Ontario  Medical  Association. 
This  feature  provided  the  practical  opportunity  of  demonstrating  the  interest 
of  the  Provincial  Medical  Association  in  the  Health  Week  programme. 

To  the  public  it  presented  exceptional  facilities  for  clinical  consultation 
during  the  week,  and  for  the  medical  profession  it  provided  what  practically 
amounted  to  a  short  post-graduate  course  of  one  session  in  each  of  the  following 
branches,  for  which  the  special  consultants  were  supplied: 

Pediatrics, 

Internal  Medicine  and  Occupational  Disease, 

Orthopedics, 

Tuberculosis, 

General  Surgery  (Diagnosis). 

Local  Meetings 

During  the  early  part  of  the  year  we  were  able  to  meet  requests  from  local 
health  authorities  and  divisions  within  the  department,  and  supplied  speakers 
for  numerous  public  meetings  called  in  the  interests  of  public  health  (Aurora,. 
Sunderland,  St.  Catharines,    Bolton,  Hamilton). 


50 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

Ontario  Health  Officers'  Association 

The  Ontario  Health  Officers'  Association  met  in  their  eleventh  annual 
conference,  May  4th,  5th  and  6th,  when  a  very  interesting  programme  was 
presented.  The  following  officers  were  elected:  President,  Dr.  Fred  Adams; 
First  Vice-President,  Dr.  T.  W.  G.  McKay;  Second  \'ice-President,  Dr. 
Andrew  W.  Dwyer. 

Literature  Distributed 

One  hundred  and  sixty-three  thousand  pieces  of  literature  were  distributed. 
The  following  pamphlets  are  the  most  popular  of  the  publications: 

Health  Almanac, 

Baby  Book, 

Communicable  Disease  Pamphlets, 

Venereal  Disease  Literature. 

Canadian  National  Exhibition,  Toronto 

The  Canadian  National  Exhibition  was  again  the  setting  for  the  public 
health  exhibit.  The  Division  of  Child  Hygiene  had  an  interesting  exhibit 
illustrating  the  med'cal  supervision  of  the  health  of  school  children.  In  addition, 
two  physicians  were  present  each  afternoon  to  consult  with  mothers  of  infants 
and  pre-school  children.  Nurses  were  in  constant  attendance  at  the  booth, 
and  children  of  all  ages  were  weighed  and  given  a  health  tag  which  served  also 
as  a  weight  record. 

The  Division  of  Vital  Statistics  was  a  very  busy  spot,  because  in  addition 
to  a  most  attractive  exhibit,  applications  for  records  were  received  in  large 
numbers. 

The  booth  devoted  to  industrial  hygiene  illustrated  in  a  most  graphic  and 
artistic  manner  the  contrast  in  the  conditions  in  the  lumber,  mining  and  con- 
struction camps  as  they  exist  to-day  and  as  they  were  before  the  health 
programme  was  undertaken. 

By  means  of  a  large  map  of  Ontario,  attention  was  drawn  to  the  health 
services  in  connection  with  motor  tourist  traffic,  emphasizing  the  consultant 
and  inspection  services  which  the  Division  of  Sanitary  Engineering  maintains. 

The  Tuberculosis  Section  was  exceedingly  well  patronized.  The  x-ray 
films  of  actual  cases  in  various  stages  of  the  disease  were  most  arresting  and 
instructive. 

The  exhibit  of  the  Division  of  Dental  Services  was  a  centre  of  attraction 
owing  to  the  fact  that  free  examination  and  advice,  including  x-ray  when  neces- 
sary, was  available  to  the  public  through  the  co-operation  of  the  organized 
dental  profession.  One  thousand  and  fifty-five  people  were  given  this  service 
during  the  Exhibition ;  893  x-ray  pictures  were  taken. 

A  new  feature  was  the  "Book  Shelf  for  Health"  which  w^as  made  possible 
through  the  kind  co-operation  of  the  various  firms  in  Toronto  handling  books 
on  health  subjects. 

Moving  pictures  were  once  more  a  popular  feature  of  the  health  exhibit.  A 
film  on  cancer,  imported  through  the  kindness  of  Dr.  W.  H.  Harris,  was  very  well 
received.     Over  10,000  people  viewed  the  pictures  during  the  Exhibition. 

Communicable  diseases,  including  venereal  disease,  were  featured  in  a 
joint  exhibit  of  the  laboratory  and  the  Division  of  Preventable  Diseases.

DISTRICT  OFFICERS  OF  HEALTH 


DISTRICT  No.   I. 
T.  J.  McNally,  M.D.,  D.P.H. 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  the  thirteenth  annual  report  of  pubHc  health 
work  in  this  district. 

During  the  3'ear  I  made  118  official  visits  to  as  many  different  municipalities 
and  in  each  case  reviewed  with  the  medical  officer  of  health  the  past  year's 
activities  of  the  local  board  and  where  I  considered  it  necessary  had  them  sum- 
moned and  discussed  with  the  full  board  the  local  problems  of  sanitation  and 
administration. 

These  intervicAvs  have  all  been  harmonious  and  have  shown  a  rapidly 
growing  appreciation  on  the  part  of  these  officials  of  the  changed  and  broadened 
field  of  public  health  activities  engaged  in  by  the  Ontario  Department  of  Health. 

Eighty  of  the  municipalities  were  visited  a  second  time  to  check  up  the 
work  of  the  present  year  and  in  addition  other  repeat  visits  were  made  on 
account  of  some  difficulty  experienced  by  the  local  board  in  administration  or 
control  of  nuisances.  This  close  personal  supervision  of  health  work  in  the 
district  was  rendered  possible  through  the  use  of  motor  car. 

Public  Health  Nursing 

Throughout  the  year  Miss  Riddle  and  Mrs.  Bagshaw  who  are  assigned  to 
this  district  have  done  faithful  and  excellent  work.  They  spent  the  early  part 
of  the  year  in  preliminary  surveys  for  the  Lambton  County  Health  Week  held  in 
Sarnia  from  January  19th  to  the  23rd,  then  assisted  with  the  work  of  the  clinics 
and  did  the  follow-up  home  visitations  connected  with  this  demonstration. 

In  the  preliminary  surveys  they  were  assisted  by  Misses  Halley,  Castle, 
Pennock  and  Campbell  of  the  department  who  were  assigned  to  this  work 
for  a  few^  weeks  before,  during  and  following  the  Health  Week. 

After  this  work  was  completed  the  district  nurses  made  a  survey  of  the 
Townships  of  Plympton,  Warwick  and  Bosanquet  and  the  Town  of  Forest,  in 
preparation  for  another  series  of  tuberculosis,  pre-school  and  school  clinics 
which  were  conducted  in  the  town  of  Forest  by  Drs.  Bell,  Phair,  Kitley,  Brink 
and  Riddell.  The  Wednesday  afternoon  was  devoted  to  a  special  tuberculosis 
clinic  conducted  by  Dr.  Brink  before  the  Lambton  County  Medical  Association. 
Following  these  clinics  the  nurses  made  an  intensive  follow  up  visitation  to  the 
homes  in  the  aforementioned  municipalities. 

Dr.  Smith  of  the  Child  Hygiene  Division  assisted  by  Mrs.  Bagshaw  made  a 
complete  physical  examination  of  all  the  school  children  of  the  Township  of  Dawn ; 
following  this  the  nurse  proceeded  with  the  follow-up  home  visitations  until  the 
roads  became  impassable  for  a  motor. 

During  this  time  Miss  Riddle  was  engaged  in  an  intensive  survey  of  the 
Township  of  Brooke  in  preparation  for  a  series  of  clinics  to  be  conducted  in 
Petrolia  during  the  coming  year. 

Latterly  the  nurses  have  been  engaged  in  a  similar  survey  in  the  Town  of 
Petrolia. 


58 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

Lambton  County  Health  Week 

Under  this  title  the  Department  of  Health  of  Ontario  succeeded  in  staging 
the  most  successful  public  health  educational  campaign  and  nursing  demonstra- 
tion ever  attempted  in  Canada,  or  so  far  as  I  am  aware,  in  any  country,  and  gave  a 
definite  illustration  of  complete  co-operation  between  public  health  workers, 
medical  and  dental  professions  and  public  officials  as  well  as  social  organizations 
working  in  perfect  accord  in  their  respective  spheres  having  only  in  mind: 

1.  To  disseminate  information  relative  to  health  protection  and  disease 
prevention. 

2.  To  create  an  opening  for  active  public  health  work. 

3.  To  promote  a  closer  relation  and  a  better  understanding  between  the 
public  and  medical  profession. 

4.  To  stimulate  a  demand  for  medical  and  dental  health  service  on  the  part 
of  the  public. 

5.  To  introduce  a  rational  free  medical  and  dental  service  to  special  classes 
in  the  community  where  the  same  is  indicated  and  properly  rendered. 

6.  To  promote  the  control  of  matters  and  services  distinctly  medical  and 
dental  by  the  medical  and  dental  professions,  respectively. 

The  field  work  for  this  demonstration  was  carried  out  as  indicated  under 
"Public  Health  Nursing,"  supplemented  by  some  thirty  meetings  at  fifteen  towns 
and  villages  in  the  county.  At  each  of  these  meetings  public  health  films  illus- 
trating different  phases  of  the  work  were  shown,  the  afternoon  being  for  school 
children  who  were  addressed  by  the  nurse  doing  survey  work  in  the  locality, 
the  evening  meeting  for  adults  who  were  given  a  short  address  on  some  public 
health  subject  by  your  district  officer.  These  meetings  were  enlivened  with  votcal 
and  instrumental  music  by  local  talent  and  in  some  cases  ended  up  with  a  social 
tea.  In  this  way  about  90  per  cent,  of  the  local  children  and  60  per  cent,  of  the 
adult  population  at  these  points  were  brought  personally  in  contact  with  the 
public  health  workers. 

The  county  medical  and  dental  professions  freely  ofTered  their  services  in 
this  publicity  and  educational  campaign,  giving  addresses  in  the  schools  and  to 
church  societies  on  oral  hygiene  and  general  public  health. 

Eliminating  the  legion  of  minor  details  of  organization  and  of  the  Week's 
work,  it  might  not  be  amiss  to  give  a  brief  sketch  of  the  programme  and  some 
of  the  results  following  the  work. 

Each  of  the  five  days  was  occupied  by: 

1.  Clinics  for  infants,  pre-school  and  school  children. 

2.  Clinics  for  adults,  general  medical  and  occupational  disease. 

3.  Dental  clinics. 

4.  Chest  clinics. 

For  four  of  the  days  there  were  in  addition  to  the  above 

5.  Eye  clinics  1  i     ^  j  x  •  r  ^ 

^    T-  J  ^u       <.    1-    •  '!         conducted  by  speciahsts. 

6.  Ear,  nose  and  throat  clmics.       i 

On  Wednesday,  Dr.  R.  I.  Harris,  of  Toronto,  and  on  Friday,  Dr.  D.  E. 
Robertson,  of  Toronto,  conducted  special  consultation  clinic  on  referred  ortho- 
pedic cases. 

There  was  a  public  meeting  each  evening  at  which  different  subjects  related 
to  public  health  were  dealt  with  in  an  address  from  the  following  well-informed 
leaders,  the  Hon.  Howard  Ferguson,  the  Right  Rev.  M.  F.  Fallon,  the  Hon. 
Forbes  Godfrey,  Dr.  George  Young,  Dr.  J.  W.  S.  McCullough,  Dr.  W.  Seccombe, 
Dr.  Helen  MacMurchy,  Dr.  C.  D.  Parfitt,  Dr.  Frank  Woods,  Mrs.  Chas.  Thor-

burn,  Dr.  A.  E.  Webster,  Dr.  H.  \V.  Hill,  Miss  H.  G.  Campbell,  Mr.  F.  A.  Dallyn 
and  Mr.  E.  H.  Stonehouse. 

These  able  speakers  maintained  a  well-sustained  public  interest  throughout 
the  whole  week,  as  evidenced  by  the  attendance  of  capacity  audiences  in  a  hall 
seating  about  1,200  people. 

During  the  evenings  the  medical  and  dental  professions  were  engaged  in 
round-table  conferences  led  by  the  specialist  conducting  the  clinics  during  the 
day,  thus  being  prepared  for  and  stimulated  to  give  better  services  to  their 
clientele  in  days  to  come. 

There  were  about  1,100  persons  examined,  and  where  disease  or  defect  was 
found  the  family  physician  was  notified  by  private  letter  what  diagnosis  was 
made,  with  suggestions  as  to  treatment;  o"  these,  143  were  chest  conditions, 
many  of  whom  were  open  cases  of  tuberculosis,  and  of  these,  several  had  not  been 
under  a  physician  previous  to  the  survey;  following  the  recommendation  of  the 
specialist,  and  on  the  advice  of  the  family  physician,  a  number  were  placed  in 
the  sanitorium. 

All  cases  were  visited  in  their  homes  by  the  nurses  since,  and  a  very  earnest 
effort  made  to  have  all  cases  placed  under  treatment  by  the  family  physician  or 
dentist  as  required. 

A  better  understanding  has  been  developed  between  the  professions  con- 
cerned and  the  general  public  and  a  more  cordial  relationship  between  both  and 
the  Department  of  Health. 

To  those  desirous  of  obtaining  further  information  regarding  the  organiza- 
tion and  results  of  this  demonstration  I  would  refer  to  the  article  in  the  American 
Journal  of  Public  Health,  July  1925,  by  Dr.  W.  J.  Bell,  to  whose  initiative  and 
energy,  its  success  was  largely  due. 

Caxxixg  Factories 

These  factories  continue  to  give  considerable  trouble  through  their  effluents 
causing  nuisances,  Essex,  Harrow,  Leamington  and  Tecumseh,  being  the  greatest 
offenders. 

Milk 

The  milk  products  factories  occasioned  several  protests  by  creating  nuisances 
but  on'the  condition  being  officially  brought  to  the  notice  of  the  management 
correction  was  made. 

The  supplying  of  milk  for  domestic  use  in  the  urban  municipalities  is  in 
many  cases  unsatisfactory,  notwithstanding  the  best  efforts  of  the  Department, 
through  local  officers,  district  officer  and  the  engineering  staff.  The  failure  to 
have  a  satisfactory  supervision  is  due  in  most  cases,  to  the  unsatisfactory  condi- 
tion of  the  law  which  requires  the  local  council  to  pass  a  by-law  under  schedule 
B  of  the  Public  Health  Act,  before  the  local  board  of  health  has  the  necessary 
jurisdiction  to  supervise  production,  care,  storage  and  delivery  of  milk  to  the 
consumer. 

Prejudice  and  interested  influence  all  too  frequently  prevent  the  necessary 
by-law  being  passed,  therefore  I  respectfully  recommend  that  schedule  B  be  so 
amended  as  to  give  the  local  board  of  health  the  necessary  authority  to  supervise 
the  milk  delivery  in  the  municipality  without  any  amendment  by  the  local 
council. 

Meat 

The  control  of  the  slaughtering  of  animals  for  food  is  being  fairly  well  super- 
vised, but  there  is  need  for  better  arrangements  to  prevent  the  flesh  of  diseased 
animals  being  sold  for  domestic  use. 


60 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

Rural  Schools 

Improvement  is  being  made  in  the  sanitary  conditions  of  these  institutions, 
though  in  too  many  instances,  either  through  the  indifference  or  passive  resistance 
of  the  trustees,  satisfactory  water  supply  and  conveniences  are  not  provided. 

The  start  made  towards  dental  inspection  of  the  school  children  through 
the  department,  arranging  for  a  first  free  inspection  is  a  forward  movement, 
though  it  appears  to  me  that  transportation  must  be  provided  for  the  dentists 
before  many  of  these  schools  are  reached,  as  it  can  not  be  expected  that  the  dentist 
will  bear  this  expense  in  addition  to  giving  his  time  free. 

Communicable  Diseases — Smallpox 

This  year  has  been  practically  free  of  this  disease  in  this  district,  owing,  I 
believe  to  the  amount  of  vaccination  carried  out  last  year  as  a  result  of  the  serious 
outbreak  in  Windsor,  but  we  are  menaced  from  its  prevalence  in  Detroit.  The 
action  of  Windsor  Board  of  Health  insisting  that  no  child  may  attend  the  public 
schools  without  being  first  successfully  vaccinated  is  to  be  commended  and  should 
be  applied  generally  in  the  interest  of  public  health. 

Diphtheria 

We  have  now  the  assured  action  of  antitoxin  in  lessening  the  mortality  from 
this  disease,  as  well  as  passive  immunity  from  its  use  on  contacts;  and  it  is 
pretty  well  established  that  we  may  obtain  permanent  immunity  through  the 
use  of  toxoid;  the  incidence  as  well  as  the  mortality  from  diphtheria  should  be 
very  materially  further  reduced.  We  may  hopefully  look  forward  for  this 
result  now  since  it  has  been  found  that  toxoid  does  not  produce  any  reaction  in 
young  children,  and  in  very  few  cases  up  to  twelve  years  of  age  which  removes 
all  reasonable  objection  to  its  general  application  during  the  age  of  greatest 
susceptibility  to  the  disease. 

There  has  not  been  any  epidemic  of  the  disease  in  the  district  during  the  year, 
but  the  isolated  cases  are  all  too  frequent. 

Venereal  Diseases 

The  provision  made  for  the  treatment  of  indigent  cases  is  working  out  very 
satisfactorily  in  this  district,  though  I  regret  to  have  to  note  that  the  cases 
treated  as  private  patients  are  not  being  well  reported. 

The  incidence  of  this  disease  among  the  native  population  on  the  Indian 
reserves  is  very  common  and  a  Constance  menace  to  the  communities  where 
these  people  migrate  for  work  during  the  summer  season,  as  well  as  at  all  times, 
to  the  municipalities  adjoining  the  reserves. 

I  respectfully  urge  that  the  department  take  this  matter  up  with  the  Federal 
department  responsible  for  the  care  of  these  people,  so  that  some  effective  plan 
may  be  put  in  operation  to  stamp  out  this  serious  condition  of  affairs. 

Typhoid  Fever 

The  occurrence  of  this  disease  in  isolated  cases  is  all  too  frequent,  but 
serves  to  impress  us  with  the  necessity  for  eternal  vigilance  to  guard  against  the 
carrier  and  ambulant  cases,  as  well  as  to  protect  the  public  against  the  open 
menace. 

There  has  commenced  a  small  outbreak  in  Courtright,  the  danger  of  which 
was  some  time  ago  urged  on   the  local    authorities   and  the  Department  by 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 61 

your  district  officer,  as  well  as  by  the  local  officer,  who  now  is  unfortunately  a 
victim  of  the  disease.  Notwithstanding  our  protests  against  the  danger  of  the 
situation,  no  action  has  been  taken  to  protect  the  public. 

The  sanitary  conditions  at  Glencoe  are  seriously  threatening  an  outbreak, 
one  case  having  already  occurred.  The  conditions  have  been  investigated, 
reported  upon  and  recommendations  made  by  your  engineering  staff",  and  these 
reports  and  recommendations  officially  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  reeve  and 
medical  officer,  but  so  far  as  I  am  aware,  no  action  has  been  taken  by  the  local 
authorities.    Correction  of  conditions  should  be  insisted  upon  by  the  Department. 

A  few  cases  in  Chatham  were  investigated,  the  source  found  and  the  disease 
stamped  out. 

Water  Supplies  (Public) 

The  supervision  of  these  ha\-ing  been  taken  over  by  your  Division  of  Engin- 
eering, it  only  remains  for  me  to  call  attention  to  those  that  in  my  judgment 
require  active  observation,  viz.,  Courtright,  Glencoe  (private  supplies),  Kings- 
ville,  Woodstock  and  Aylmer,  owing  to  potential  dangers  of  serious  contamina- 
tion. 

Motor  Camps  and  Tourist  Refreshment  Booths 

On  the  instruction  of  the  Honourable  the  Prime  Minister,  acting  as  Minister 
of  Health,  a  complete  survey  of  sanitary  conditions  in  these  cam.ps  and  boo  hs 
was  made  in  collaboration  with  the  Engineering  Division  and,  on  the  basi  = 
of  our  report,  recommendations  for  regulations  were  formulated  by  the  Deputy 
Minister  in  conference  with  the  District  officers  and  the  heads  of  divisions  con- 
cerned for  the  Government's  action. 

Summer  Resorts 

Some  improvement  is  being  made  in  the  sanitary  conditions  of  these  com- 
munities, but  regulations  and  more  definite  supervision  are  required  than  is 
possible  under  present  arrangements  to  bring  conditions  to  such  a  standard  as  to 
adequately  protect  the  public  health. 

Nuisances 

The  correction  of  nuisances  from  such  varied  causes  as  factory  wastes, 
removal  of  night  soil,  fouled  drains,  contamination  of  streams,  slaughter-houses, 
etc.,  occasioned  about  fifty  special  visits  to  different  parts  of  the  district,  and 
diverted  the  time  and  attention  of  your  district  officer  altogether  too  much  from 
conditions  more  directly  concerned  with  the  preservation  of  public  health.  To 
overcome  this,  and  in  view  of  the  fact  that  the  Sanitary  Engineering  Division 
has  practically  taken  over  the  care  of  public  water  supplies,  and  that  the  rural 
school  boards  are  in  need  of  practical  expert  advice  regarding  conveniences 
and  well  coverings,  I  again  urge  that  a  qualified  and  trained  sanitary  engineer 
from  that  Division  be  assigned  to  the  District  Officer  for  work  in  the  district, 
but  whose  work  would  be  subject  to  the  supervision  of  the  Director  of  the 
Division. 

Public  Institutions 

The  sanitary  conditions  of  all  these  institutions  were  carefully  gone  over 
during  the  year,  and  recommendations  made  where  conditions  urgently  demanded 
improvement,  but  I  regret  to  say  that  so  far  as  I  am  aware,  without  any  action 
being  taken  to  correct  the  several  points  dealt  with. 


62 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

DISTRICT  NO.  2 

J.  J.  Eraser,  M.D.,  D.S.O. 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  herewith  my  annual  report  for  the  year  1925, 
District  No.  2  is  made  up  of  nine  counties,  covering  an  area  of  6,264,816 
acres.  There  are  192  municipalities,  made  up  of  five  cities,  seventy-one  towns  and 
villages,  and  116  townships.  It  is  impossible  to  cover  this  large  extent  of  area  in 
anything  like  a  satisfactory  manner,  and  I  would  recommend  that  Simcoe  and 
Muskoka,  which  were  formerly  in  District  No.  4,  be  handed  back  to  make  the 
districts  more  equal. 

Among  the  activities  attempted  this  year,  two,  I  think  are  deserving  of 
special  mention,  the  inspection  of  motor  camps  and  refreshment  booths,  and 
public  health  education.  Inspection  of  motor  camps  will  be  referred  to  later. 
In  the  matter  of  education  I  have  addressed  boards  of  health  and  municipal 
councils,  interviewed  newspaper  editors  and  written  weekly  articles.  I  have 
tried  to  convince  school  boards  and  boards  of  health,  that  health,  within  certain 
limits,  is  purchaseable.  The  response  to  these  attempts  is  all  that  could  be 
desired;  the  results  are  not  so  easily  estimated. 

Communicable  Diseases 

There  has  been  no  outstanding  advance  in  the  control  of  communicable 
diseases  during  the  past  year,  unless  the  work  of  D'Hherelle  on  the  bacteriophage 
opens  up  new  fields  in  immunology. 

Isolation  and  quarantine  have  been  questioned  and  discredited  by  some,  but 
only  where  they  have  not  been  efficiently  enforced.  The  public  are  showing  a 
better  appreciation  of  these  means  of  prevention  than  ever  before,  and  are  apt 
to  check  up  on  the  health  officer  who  does  not  enforce  them. 

Smallpox 

Small  outbreaks  occurred  at  Stratford,  Kitchener  and  Elora,  all  of  a  mild 
type,  there  being  no  deaths.  In  these  places  all  the  contacts  were  vaccinated, 
and  most  of  the  children. 

Chicken-pox 

There  were  two  hundred  and  fifty-four  cases  of  chicken-pox  as  compared 
with  three  hundred  and  fort\--three  last  year.  Some  practitioners  are  slow  in 
following  the  new  regulations  that  demand  that  chicken-pox  be  placarded. 
Chicken-pox  is  mainly  important  from  a  diagnostic  point  of  view,  on  account 
of  the  possibility  of  its  being  mistaken  for  smallpox. 

Measles 

An  attempt  has  been  made  to  reduce  the  number  of  measles  cases  this  year, 
for  two  reasons.  It  was  estimated  there  were  fifty  thousand  cases  of  measles  in 
the  Province  last  year;  this  is  too  many.  Measles  in  England  have  been  of  a 
very  severe  type  this  year,  the  mortality  rate  being  higher  than  that  for  scarlet 
fever. 

Diphtheria 

The  only  place  where  there  was  anything  approaching  an  epidemic  was 
Hespeler,  where  there  were  eight  cases  and  three  deaths.  All  the  school  children 
and  some  pre-school  were  given  two  immunizing  doses  of  toxoid.  A  useful  result 
of  the  epidemic  was  the  interest  aroused  in  reporting  and  quarantining  communic- 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 63 

able  diseases,  which  before  this  had  been  rather  indifferent.    A  few  municipaUties 
are  taking  advantage  of  toxoid  immunization. 

Typhoid 

There  were  two  outbreaks  of  typhoid  during  the  year.  One  of  twelve  cases 
in  Orillia  hospital  was  traced  to  a  carrier  who  had  a  biliary  fistula.  The  other 
was  at  Owen  Sound.  There  were  really  two  outbreaks  here,  one  beginning  the 
middle  of  August,  the  other  at  the  end  of  September.  While  the  latter  was 
definitely  traced  to  the  water  through  drainage  from  an  old  reservoir,  the  cause 
of  the  first  outbreak  was  not  so  clear.  The  following  sources  of  infection  were 
investigated — bathing  in  sewage-polluted  stream,  polluted  well  and  springs 
apart  from  the  municipal  supply,  possible  carrier  on  milk  route,  and  infection 
brought  from  outside,  e.g.,  off  a  boat  or  motor  trip.  One  or  more  cases  seemed 
to  arise  from  each  of  these  sources.  Since  then,  Owen  Sound  has  decided  to 
chlorinate  all  its  wate.  supp'y. 

Tuberculosis 

No  more  permanent  diagnostic  clinics  have  been  established,  but  a  good 
deal  of  interest  has  been  stimulated  by  the  travelling  chest  clinic.  The  death  rate 
for  the  Province  in  1900  was  149.8;  for  last  year  it  was  59.5.  While  this  shows 
an  encouraging  decrease,  the  work  being  done  on  incipient  cases  and  on  children 
should  further  reduce  this  mortality  rate. 

Summer  Resorts 

This  year  has  been  better  for  the  hotels  than  last,  and  some  of  them  have 
already  made  plans  for  enlarging.  The  disposal  of  sewage  in  these  enlarged 
places  has  to  be  carefully  watched.  The  time  has  come,  when  to  guard  against 
a  possible  break-down  in  any  of  these  disposal  plants,  chlorination  of  the  water- 
supply  should  be  considered.  There  is  one  hotel  chlorinating  its  supply  now,, 
others  have  been  advised  to  consider  it,  preparing  for  the  time  when  it  may  be 
necessary. 

The  resorts  of  Muskoka,  Algonquin  Park  and  Georgian  Bay  were  inspected 
as  far  as'time  permitted.  A  new  resort  was  inspected  this  year  at  Tobermory,  in 
the  Bruce  Peninsula.  A  large  number  of  tourists,  American  and  Canadian,  are 
now  going  in  there  by  the  blue  water  highway,  via  Sarnia.  Accommodation 
heretofoie  has  been  rather  primitive,  but  those  promoting  this  resort  are  very 
anxious  to  have  everything  as  it  should  be  for  the  safety  and  comfort  of  tourists. 
Lion's  Head  is  also  attracting  some  of  this  summer  trade. 

At  Wasaga  Beach  the  hotels  are  well  looked  after.  The  water  supply  is  from 
flowing  wells,  and  pasteurized  milk  is  available  from  CoUingwood.  But  on  ac- 
count of  its  easy  accessibility,  there  is  a  large  floating  population,  between  two 
and  three  thousand  over  the  week-end,  and  no  sanitary  arrangements  are  pro- 
vided. The  township  council  has  been  approached  and  plans  drawn  up  for  them 
to  remedy  this  situation. 

Tourist  Camps  and  Refreshment  Booths 

These  were  inspected  for  the  first  time,  and  in  company  with  one  of  the 
engineering  division.  The  need  for  regulations  gove  ning  them  was  clearly 
seen.  It  was  quite  plain  that  there  must  be  some  supervision  over  them,  whether 
this  should  be  local  or  central  is  not  yet  determined,  probably  both  will  be

needed.  There  was  not  more  than  half  a  dozen  in  the  whole  district  that  could 
be  said  to  come  up  to  requirements.  In  each  place  visited,  a  point  was  made  of 
seeing  some  responsible  person — the  mayor,  clerk,  chamber  of  commerce,  park 
superintendent,  newspaper  editor,  etc. 

Public  Health  Nursing 

As  many  of  the  cities  and  large  towns  in  the  district  have  now  public  health 
nurses,  a  good  deal  of  work  was  done  in  the  rural  parts  this  year.  The  schools 
in  a  number  of  the  townships  were  pretty  thoroughly  covered.  Two  weeks  in 
the  summer  were  devoted  to  the  Bruce  Peninsula,  in  conjunction  with  the  nurse 
at  the  Red  Cross  Outpost  in  Lion's  Head.  This  work  is  much  needed  and 
appreciated,  and  I  think  at  least  a  month  could  well  be  given  to  it  each  summer. 

The  nurses  were  loaned  to  Guelph  and  Orangeville  during  epidemics  in  the 
schools.  While  this  may  be  agreeable  to  the  municipality  it  should  not  be  en- 
couraged. They  are  apt  to  take  advantage  of  it.  Guelph  has  one  nurse  for  a 
school  population  of  over  four  thousand. 

The  demonstration  carried  on  by  an  urban  and  rural  municipality  combined, 
Dundalk  and  Proton  township,  was  well  received,  and  showed  what  can  be  done 
by  a  capable  health  oflficer.  In  this  case,  the  town  and  township  have  the  same 
M.O.H.  The  co-operation  of  the  school  inspector  was  also  enlisted  and  every 
school  in  the  township  asked  for  the  service. 

One  very  important  duty  performed  by  the  district  nurses  was  the  visiting 
and  help  given  the  local  health  nurses.  While  the  work  is  more  or  less  new  this 
contact  should  be  kept  up. 

The  programme  of  combined  school  and  health  nursing  has  not  taken  very 
well.  Until  the  health  ofiticer  is  better  paid,  he  can  not  devote  the  time  required 
to  do  his  part  of  the  work. 

Schools 

The  schools  now  being  built  are  paying  more  attention  to  sanitary  arrange- 
ments, and  to  lighting,  heating  and  ventilation.  More  teaching  of  health  is 
being  done  in  the  schools.  The  Red  Cross  in  co-operation  with  the  Department 
of  Education  and  the  Department  of  Health  has  taken  for  its  aim  and  ideal — 
Every  Ontario  school  a  health  centre.  Health  officers  throughout  the  district 
are  taking  more  interest  in  the  schools,  and  it  is  rare  to  find  one  who  does  not 
mention  some  improvements  that  are  being  carried  out  in  his  municipality. 
They  are  beginning  to  see  that  the  school  forms  one  of  their  best  points  of  contact 
for  carrying  out  any  health  programme  they  may  have  in  view. 

Goitre 

An  extensive  survey  was  made  of  the  school  children  in  Kitchener  for  goitre. 
At  the  same  time  they  were  examined  with  a  view  to  finding  out  the  extent  of 
diseased  tonsils  among  them.  In  all,  there  were  3,876  children  examined.  Of 
these,  1,613  or  41.6  per  cent.,  had  goitre;  1,676  or  43.2  per  cent.,  had  diseased 
tonsils.  The  result  of  the  follow-up  work  has  not  yet  been  determined.  Arrange- 
ments are  being  made  to  have  a  similar  survey  made  in  the  schools  of  Guelph. 

Matters  relating  to  drainage  have  been  pretty  well  placed  where  they  belong, 
with  the  council  of  the  municipality,  not  with  the  board  of  health.  But  four 
local  boards — Listowel,  Fergus,  Seaforth  and  Guelph,  asked  assistance  in  dealing 
with  pollution  of  streams.  One  township  has  a  judgment  against  the  town  but  the 
town  says:  show  us  how  to  remedy  the  condition  and  we  will  do  so.  And  there 
the  matter  rests. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 65 

Problems  that  present  themselves  as  matters  of  policy:  There  is  still  a  large 
expenditure  of  public  funds  used  in  inspecting  and  abating  nuisances  that  could 
be  used  to  much  better  advantage  in  protecting  and  promoting  public  health. 
The  idea  still  persists  with  some  health  boards  that  the  abatement  of  nuisances 
is  their  main  reason  for  existing. 

More  attention  should  be  given  to  the  pre-school  child.  While  the  infant 
is  best  looked  after  of  any  age  group,  the  child  from  two  to  six  years  of  age  is 
the  most  neglected  of  any  age  group.  I  believe  if  this  group  were  under  the  same 
care  and  supervision  as  the  infant  group  the  occurrence  of  communicable 
diseases  would  be  very  much  lessened.  A  study  of  this  group  would  also  un- 
doubtedly add  to  our  present  scant  knowledge  of  feeble-mindedness. 

The  problem  of  pasteurization  of  milk  seems  as  far  from  being  settled  as 
ever.  A  by-law  submitted  in  Kitchener  for  pasteurization  was  defeated  by  two 
thousand  majority.  While  a  town  would  not  think  of  chlorinating  part  of  its 
water  supply  and  leaving  the  rest  untreated,  the  same  town  will  pasteurize  part 
of  its  milk  supply  and  leave  the  rest  to  take  care  of  itself. 

The  problem  of  the  typhoid  carrier  calls  for  attention.  The  majority  of 
cases  of  typhoid  occurring  now  are  traced  to  carriers,  especially  in  rural  districts. 
A  carrier  who  is  engaged  as  a  dairyman,  cook  or  food  handler  should  be  com- 
pelled to  change  his  or  her  occupation.  In  Minnesota  when  carriers  suffer  serious 
loss  through  enforced  change  of  occupation  they  are  aided  by  a  grant  made  by 
the  legislature.  The  question  of  registering  all  carriers  has  been  raised  in  some 
places. 


DISTRICT  XO.  3 
D.  A.  McClexahax,  ALD..  D.P.H. 

The  year  1925  was  one  of  acti\ity  in  District  No.  3.  During  the  early  part  of 
the  summer  in  company  with  Mr.  Delaporte  of  the  Sanitary  Engineering  Division 
of  the  Pro\incial  Department  of  Health,  a  survey  was  made  of  all  the  tourist 
camps,  refreshment  booths, summer  hotels,  and  a  largenumber  of  private  boarding 
houses'  in  the  district.  In  all,  over  four  hundred  calls  were  made.  These  places 
at  present  are  being  carried  on  in  a  rather  haphazard  way,  some  of  them  are 
well  conducted  and  some  of  them  very  badly.  At  a  subsequent  date  a  conference 
of  the  district  officers  and  engineers  was  held  in  the  office  of  the  Deputy  Minister 
of  Health.  A  suggested  set  of  regulations  was  drawn  up,  to  be  forwarded  to  the 
Minister  of  Health,  and  if  it  meets  with  his  approval,  will  probably  be  implemented 
into  law.  These  places  after  regulations  are  made  will,  of  course,  require  super- 
vision to  make  sure  that  the  regulations  are  lived  up  to. 

Epidemiology 

My  district  has  been  singularly  free  during  this  year  from  serious  epidemics. 
There  was  only  a  small  epidemic  of  diphtheria  in  \'ineland,  which  was  due  to 
a  carrier  handling  the  milk,  a  few  cases  of  smallpox  in  Welland.  The  epidemic 
in  Welland  was  readily  controlled  largelv  through  the  energetic  measures  taken 
by  the  M.O.H.,  Dr.  Rieve. 

Your  district  officer  was  called  frequently  to  see  suspicious  cases  of  infection, 
notably  at  Wellandport,  Hamilton,  Acton,  Bridgeburg,  Dundas,  Burlington, 
Milton,  Beamsville,  Oakville,  Brampton  and  Jordan. 

We  have  had  some  success  in  co-operation  with  boards  of  health  and  boards 

3  BH 


66 THE  RKPORT  OP^  THR Mo.  14 

of  education  in  the  establishment  of  medical  and  dental  inspection  of  schools. 
The  following  municipalities  have  established  or  are  arranging  to  establish  this 
service — Aurora,  North  York,  Newmarket,  Forest  Hill,  West  York,  Paris, 
Simcoe,  New  Toronto,  Port  Colborne  and  Weston. 

Immunization  against  Diphtheria 

This  work  has  been  begun  during  the  year,  and  a  large  number  of  inocula- 
tions of  toxoid  have  been  given.  The  plan  followed  is  to  give  the  inoculations  of 
toxoid  (two  inoculations  three  weeks  apart)  without  doing  a  preliminary  schick 
test,  and  give  them  to  all  the  children  where  parents  give  their  consent.  The 
proposal  is  to  do  a  schick  test  about  a  year  after  the  administration  of  the  toxoid 
to  check  up  results,  and  see  if  reaction  given  is  a  negative  one.  About  three 
thousand  inoculations  have  been  done  outside  of  the  cities  and  towns,  and  no 
marked  reactions  have  been  noted.  I  wish  specially  to  commend  the  work  done 
by  Dr.  Farquharson  of  Scarboro  Township. 

Public  health  education  has  been  continued  throughout  the  year  by  means 
of  addresses  and  the  exhibition  of  the  moving  pictures  on  health  topics  supplied 
by  the  Provincial  Department  of  Health.  These  pictures  were  shown  at  Aurora, 
Stoufifville,  Lynden  and  Oakville.  In  addition,  a  number  of  public  meetings  have 
been  held  and  conferences  with  medical  officers  of  health,  boards  of  health, 
boards  of  education  and  municipal  councils. 

I  wish  to  return  thanks  to  all  in  the  Provincial  Department  of  Health  for 
the  fullest  and  most  considerate  co-operation  during  the  year  1925. 


DISTRICT  NO.  4 
N.  H.  Sutton,  M.B.,  D.P.H. 

I  beg  to  submit  my  report  for  the  year  1925,  for  District  No.  4. 

Both  in  office  and  in  the  field,  the  routine  work  of  the  district  has  been  large 
in  amount  and  varied  in  character.  Communication  with  M.O.H.'s  has  been 
closely  maintained  by  visits,  long  distance  telephone  and,  when  time  allowed,  by 
letter.  The  M.O.H.'s  feel  free  to  consult  me  on  any  problem  where  I  can  be  of 
any  service  to  them,  and  the  spirit  of  mutual  helpfulness  which  obtains  is  of 
great  service  to  public  health.  The  problems  on  which  I  have  been  consulted 
have  been  as  varied  as  numerous,  and  many  have  been  the  subject  of  report  to 
the  Ministry.  As  these  are  mostly  of  routine  character,  I  refrain  from  enumerat- 
ing them  here  and  discuss  in  this  report  only  the  larger  aspects  of  the  work. 

Public  Health  Nursing 

During  the  year,  demonstrations  were  held  by  Miss  McEwen,  of  the  Child 
Hygiene  Division,  in  the  village  of  Norwood  during  the  winter,  and  village  of 
Havelock  and  parts  of  the  township  of  Belmont,  during  the  spring  and  early 
summer.  The  latter  of  these  was  the  more  successful,  owing  to  the 
very  hearty  support  given  to  her  in  her  work  by  the  local  M.O.H.'s, 
who  grasped  the  possibilities  of  public  health  nursing  work  and  aided  her  efforts 
in  all  possible  ways.  In  the  autunm,  Miss  McEwen  held  a  demonstration  in 
Beaverton  and  part  of  the  surrounding  township  of  Thorah.  Beaverton  is  to  be 
congratulated  on  the  growth  of  its  public  health  sentiment,  wherein  it  is  some- 


1Q26 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 67 

what  in  advance  of  many  places  of  its  size.  I  regret  that  pressure  of  other  work 
during  the  autumn  prevented  me  from  keeping  in  very  close  touch  with  the 
demonstration  there. 

Tourist  Camps,  Etc. 

During  the  month  of  June,  with  Mr.  Gibbs,  of  the  Sanitary  Engineering 
Division,  I  visited  the  tourist  camps  and  highway  refreshment  booths  throughout 
the  district.  These  are  becoming  very  numerous,  and  especially  the  refreshment 
booths  might  be  said  to  be  springing  up  like  mushrooms.  Both  camps  and  booths, 
whether  municipal  or  privately  owned,  are  exceedingly  individualistic  in  their 
character  and  vary  from  good  to  bad  in  their  design  and  fittings,  according  as 
those  responsible  for  them  have  any  proper  idea  of  the  requirements  of  such 
places,  in  regard  to  beauty,  convenience,  sanitation  and  healthfulness.  The  data 
collected  in  these  surveys  will  enable  adequate  regulations  to  be  laid  down  for 
them.  Without  such  regulations,  it  will  be  nearly  impossible  to  curb  some  of  the 
most  greedy  and  ignorant  promoters  of  such  camps  and  booths.  For  instance, 
a  visit  to  a  local  M.O.H.,  to  inquire  into  an  outbreak  of  diphtheria,  showed  that 
this  disease  had  occurred  in  the  family  of  a  farmer,  whose  roadside  refreshment 
booth  some  twenty  feet  from  the  house,  had  been  inspected  during  the  previous 
month.  The  M.O.H.  informed  me  that  he  had  had  considerable  difficulty  in 
convincing  this  man  that  the  booth  would  have  to  be  closed  during  the  period 
of  quarantine,  since  members  of  his  family  conducted  the  booth,  and  milk  products 
from  his  cow's  were  sold  there.  The  necessity  for  safeguarding  the  water  supply 
and  for  providing  proper  sanitary  conveniences  had  been  comparatively  rarely 
appreciated  by  the  private  owners  of  camps  and  booths.  The  municipally- 
owned  camps  averaged  much  better  in  this  regard. 

Fresh  Air  Camps 

Several  of  these  have  been  established,  at  different  points  throughout  the 
district  on  the  borders  of  lakes  and  stream.s  and  these  also  vary  very  greatly 
in  their  characteristics.  Some  of  the  organizations  are  well  instructed  on  what 
conduces  to  healthfulness  in  such  camps,  w^hile  in  others,  the  sanitary  arrange- 
ments are  allowed  to  be  quite  primitive,  either  from  lack  of  funds  or  proper 
installation  or  from  sanitary  ignorance.  In  the  survey  of  these,  as  well  as  in  the 
survey  of  tourist  camps,  etc.,  my  visits  were  in  the  character  of  inspections, 
and  directions  were  given  as  to  the  installations  necessary  to  make  these  places 
sanitary  and  healthful.  The  experience  of  one  of  these  camps  in  having  some 
diphtheria  cases  arise  shortly  after  the  children  had  come  from  Toronto,  led  me 
to  make  representations  to  the  Health  Department  of  Toronto,  that  while  the 
children  were  being  physically  examined,  prior  to  their  two  weeks  in  camps,  this 
examination  should  include  swabbing  of  the  nose  and  throat,  so  that  carriers 
from  diphtheria  should  be  eliminated  or  segregated. 

Summer  Resorts 

During  the  holiday  months,  I  again  checked  over  the  summer  resorts  and 
I  am  pleased  to  say  that  much  improvement  in  the  general  conditions  has  occurred 
especially  as  regards  summer  hotels.  Water  samples  were  again  taken  from  all 
parts  of  the  Stoney  Lake  area,  and  the  purity  of  these  samples  was  in  pleasing 
contrast  to  former  years,  thus  attesting  to  the  effectiveness  of  changes  in  sanitary 
arrangements  which  I  have  instituted  in  this  area.  "Groups  of  cottages"  in 
summer  communities  have  been  more  difficult  to  control,  and  I  w'ould  strongly 

3a  B.H. 


68 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

recommend  that  the  presence  of  these  be  taken  account  of  in  regulations  of  your 
Board.  Some  of  these  groups  run  up  to  100  or  200  cottages,  and  in  such  cases 
are  in  close  proximity  to  each  other.  They  are  very  often  in  out-of-way  places, 
and  practically  out  of  control  of  local  M.O.H.'s  It  is  scarcely  necessary  to  point 
out  that  such  groups,  if  not  well  looked  after,  may  easily  become  the  very  anti- 
thesis of  health  resorts. 

Milk  Survey 

During  the  latter  part  of  August  and  early  September,  I  engaged  in  a  milk 
survey  throughout  this  district,  taking  samples  from  all  dealers  supplying  milk 
to  the  towns  and  villages  in  my  district,  and  also  the  City  of  Belleville.  The 
cities  of  Peterboro  and  Oshawa  were  not  included  in  this  part  of  the  survey,  as 
they  have  their  own  analyses  of  milk.  The  results  of  these  tests  varied  within 
widespread  limits,  and  it  was  not  always  the  villages  which  had  the  dirtiest 
supplies  or  the  high  bacterial  counts,  but  on  the  whole,  the  amount  of  dirt 
present  and  the  height  of  bacterial  counts  was  almost  surprising  even  to  myself, 
whom  previous  investigation  had  somewhat  prepared  for  these  findings.  I  had 
hoped  to  complete  the  survey  in  the  late  autumn,  by  visiting  the  premises  of  the 
producers  and  dealers  in  the  period  when  the  cows  were  stabled,  but  pressure  of 
other  work  prevented  this  from  being  done.  I  shall  endeavour  to  complete  this 
survey  in  the  early  spring,  before  the  animals  are  put  out  to  grass.  In  doing  so, 
I  shall  have  with  me  the  local  sanitary  authorities  in  each  case,  so  that  they  shall 
be  instructed  where  necessary  in  such  inspection  work,  and  that  hereafter  local 
inspection  may  become  standardized  ihroughout  my  district.  I  may  say,  that 
almost  without  exception,  the  local  M.O.H.'s  have  shown  themselves  keenly 
interested  in  this  survey  and  are  exceedingly  willing  to  lend  all  possible  assistance 
in  forwarding  it. 

Medical  Officers  of  Health 

I  feel  that  I  must  compliment  these  men  on  the  work  that  they  are  doing. 
There  are  still  some  exceptions  who  do  not  rise  to  their  opportunities,  and  some 
who  almost  obstruct  rather  than  promote  the  growth  of  public  health  sentiment, 
knowledge  and  effort,  but  on  the  whole,  they  are  taking  their  duties  seriously 
and  rendering  service  to  the  communities  which  are  very  valuable  and  out  of  all 
proportions  to  the  immediate  monetary  results  which  their  salaries  represent. 
I  am  happy  to  state  that  I  can  see  continued  and  steady  improvement  in  the 
manner  in  which  they  are  following  out  their  duties.  At  the  same  time,  I  may 
say  that  the  great  majority  of  them  in  my  district  are  becoming  more  and  more 
in  favour  of  the  full-time  area  M.O.H.  idea,  and  that  this  sentiment  is  the 
strongest  among  those  who  are  keenest  to  do  their  duty  and  who  necessarily 
regret  the  ill  effect  upon  the  general  public  health,  of  the  limitations  inherent  in 
the  present  plan  of  local  part-time  M.O.H.'s  I  have  been  pleased  to  receive  from 
all  M.O.H.'s  and  also  from  numerous  private  physicians,  glowing  reports  on  the 
results  obtained  by  the  scarlet  fever  antitoxin  now  distributed  by  the  Provincial 
Board.  From  these  reports,  I  should  judge  that  this  antitoxin  is  going  to  prove 
quite  as  valuable  in  handling  this  disease  as  the  diphtheria  antitoxin  has  long 
proved  itself  to  be  in  diphtheria. 

Communicable  Diseases 

Of  these,  those  which  are  regarded  by  the  public  and  also  largely  by  the 
medical  profession  as  the  more  serious,  are  becoming  constantly  better  treated 
and  better  controlled,  with  the  possible  exception  of  venereal  disease.     Those 


I 


1926  PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 69 

which  are  more  lightly  regarded,  as  is  the  case  with  measles,  whooping  cough, 
etc.,  have  not  shown  much  improvement  in  their  control.  When  the  medical 
profession  and  public  health  workers  have  shown  the  public  the  very  serious 
death  list  from  these  diseases,  improvement  will  at  once  set  in.  The  treatment 
and  control  of  venereal  diseases,  while  they  have  advanced  by  leaps  and  bounds, 
must  still  show  a  vast  deal  of  improvement,  before  anything  like  a  satisfactory 
situation  exists.  In  this  connection,  I  note  with  great  satisfaction,  the  great  in- 
crease in  the  attendance  at  V.D.  clinic  in  Peterboro,  an  increase  which  is  very 
marked  and  satisfactory. 

In  these  diseases,  as  in  fact  all  other  communicable  diseases,  and  generally 
in  all  public  health  effort,  the  City  of  Oshawa  is  the  bright  and  shining  light  in  my 
district.  The  M.O.H.  and  Board  of  Health  there  cannot  be  too  highly  com- 
mended for  their  excellent  work.  Of  other  communicable  diseases,  there  is 
nothing  very  outstanding  to  report,  with  the  exception  of  smallpox,  of  which  the 
Town  of  Trenton  seems  to  have  been  the  centre.  This  disease  has  smouldered 
there  for  some  nine  months,  and  has  begun  to  assume  the  proportions  of  a  real 
epidemic.  The  earlier  cases  were  of  mild  type;  some  of  these  now  occurring  are 
severe.  The  epidemic  there  has  not  been  handled  with  all  the  efficiency  which 
could  be  desired,  whereas,  in  some  other  ten  or  twelve  municipalities  to  which  it 
spread,  it  has  been  practically  stamped  out  by  the  only  possible  means  to  that 
end,  widespread  vaccination.  I  am  pleased  to  state  that  vaccination  in  Trenton 
is  now  becoming  more  general  and  results  are  at  last  being  achieved. 

The  More  Sparsely  Settled  Areas 

I  am  pleased  to  note  that  through  the  agency  of  the  Red  Cross,  the  needs  of 
the  North  Hastings  area  are  in  a  fair  way  to  be  met  by  the  erection  of  a  small 
hospital  in  Bancroft,  at  the  end  of  the  .year.  The  scheme  is  not  yet  completed, 
but  there  is  every  hope  of  it  going  forward  to  completion.  I  would  strongly 
recommend  that  some  way  be  found  of  maintaining  a  public  health  nurse  there, 
to  work  in  the  surrounding  area,  with  that  hospital  as  a  base. 


DISTRICT  NO.  5 
P.  J.  Moloney,  M.D. 

I  hereby  submit  my  annual  report  for  the  year  1925  from  District  Number  5. 

This  district  is  made  up  of  the  counties  of  Dundas,  Stormont  and  Glengarry, 
Leeds  and  Grenville,  Frontenac,  Lennox  and  Addington,  Lanark,  Renfrew, 
Carleton,  Prescott  and  Russell,  and  the  City  of  Kingston. 

The  head  office  is  at  Ottawa,  owing  to  which  favourable  location  there  is 
good  access  by  railroad  and  provincial  and  county  highway  to  most  parts  of  the 
territory.  The  work  centering  in  the  office  has  greatly  increased  during  the 
year,  advantage  being  more  often  taken  by  boards  of  health,  health  officers, 
municipal  councils  and  others  for  the  information  and  authority  which  it  affords. 

The  district  consists  of  172  municipalities,  has  been  throughly  inspected  in 
a  routine  manner  during  the  year,  also  all  requests  for  special  visits,  and  condi- 
tions requiring  special  visits,  though  not  requested,  have  received  attention. 

The  public  institutions,  thirty-four  in  number,  have  been  inspected,  regard- 
ing their  sanitary  condition,  and  report  sent  to  the  Department  in  Toronto  and 
to  the  governing  bodies  when  indicated. 

I  wish  to  record  the  hearty  co-operation  and  valuable  assistance  received

Diseases,  Dental  Services,  and  the  other  departments  located  at  the  head  office, 
as  also  the  Dominion  \'eterinary  General's  Department,  and  the  Canadian 
Tuberculosis  Association. 

Public  Health  Nurses 

The  Division  of  Child  Hygiene  had  four  nurses  giving  demonstrations 
under  my  supervision  during  the  year.  Their  work  continues  to  receive  the 
highest  praise.  This  is  due,  not  onl}^  to  the  excellence  of  the  objective  sought,  but 
also  to  the  energy,  tact  and  persistence  of  the  nurses  themselves. 

So  much  has  appeared  in  the  press  in  praise  of  the  work  done  by  Miss 
Squires,  that  I  will  only  add,  that  after  the  Glengarry  health  week  of  last  year, 
she  continued  her  work  in  the  district,  especially  around  Maxville,  until  the  whole 
county  was  thoroughly  gone  over.  It  is  likely  that  two  public  health  nurses  will 
be  appointed  in  the  near  future  in  this  county,  one  at  Alexandria,  and  the  other 
at  Maxville. 

During  the  summer.  Miss  Squires  and  Miss  Howey  carried  on  a  strenuous 
programme  in  the  rough  country  around  Arden.  I  found  everyone  very  favour- 
ably impressed  with  what  they  accomplished,  and  since  it  is  financially  impos- 
sible for  this  district  to  engage  a  full-time  nurse,  I  hope  that  this  locality  linked 
up  with  the  more  northern  country,  will  yet  secure  the  service  of  a  nurse,  aided 
by  a  liberal  grant  from  the  department. 

Late  in  the  fall  the  nurses  came  on  to  Kemptville  where  the  same 
type  of  work  as  that  carried  on  in  Glengarry  was  pursued.  Miss  Howey  remains 
to  finish  this  work  in  1926,  while  Miss  Squires  takes  charge  at  Gananoque. 

In  October  a  wide  spread  outbreak  of  smallpox  occurred  in  North  Renfrew. 
Fortunately  at  this  time,  two  nurses,  Misses  Campbell  and  Castle  were  assigned 
to  work  in  this  locality.  With  great  energy  these  two  nurses  aided  the  local  doctors 
in  a  vacciration  campaign,  covering  a  wide  stretch  of  country,  including  Golden 
Lake  Indian  Reservation,  at  which  latter  place,  ninety  per  cent,  of  the  Indians 
were  vaccinated. 

They  have  lately  got  their  regular  programme  under  way,  which  includes 
a  proposed  clinic,  series  of  lectures  with  moving  pictures,  etc.,  at  Eganville. 

Public  Health  and  School  Nursing  Programme  in  the  Town  of  Cornwall 

The  most  notable  programme  of  public  health  nursing  and  school  nursing 
carried  on  under  local  auspices  and  inaugurated  during  the  year,  was  that  at 
Cornwall.  For  many  years  the  V.O.N,  had  a  nurse  in  this  town.  The  work 
increased  in  popularity  until  this  year  they  have  three  nurses  in  this  town.  Up 
to  the  present  this  work  was  financed  by  grants  from  the  town,  Metropolitan 
Life  Insurance  Company,  and  various  public  donations,  including  tag  days.  A 
very  representative  women's  organization  had  the  programme  in  charge. 

At  first  school  nursing  was  carried  on  in  the  public  schools  only.  Later, 
arrangements  were  made  that  this  service  be  extended  to  the  separate  schools. 

A  fully  qualified  public  health  nurse,  Miss  James,  is  in  charge  of  this 
feature  of  the  work  and  is  giving  excellent  satisfaction.  As  the  people  of  Corn- 
wall considered  that  they  were  complying  with  all  the  essential  requirements  of 
the  Health  Act,  they  felt  they  should  be  entitled  to  the  Government  grant  in 
aid  of  such  work. 

Accompanied  by  Dr.  Phair,  I  visited  Cornwall  and  we  went  thoroughly  into 
the  whole  situation  and,  all  parties  being  agreeable,  the  procedure  was  made 
regular  by  the  local  board  of  health,  appointing  Miss  James  as  a  full-time  public 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 71 

health  nurse  whose  duties  would  be  entirely  taken  up  by  school  work.  The 
amount  of  medical  inspection  essential  w^as  also  agreed  upon  by  Dr.  Hamilton, 
M.P.,  M.O  H.  The  local  board  of  health  would  now  become  entitled  to  the 
annual  grant  of  S500  in  aid  of  this  work.  The  details  of  the  arrangement  were 
carried  out  with  the  hearty  approval  of  the  Local  Counci  of  Women  and  the 
V.  O.  N. 

Anti-Tuberculosis  Activities 

During  the  year,  this  work,  which  I  have  much  at  heart,  made  considerable 
progress  in  District  No.  5.  The  Canadian  Tuberculosis  Association,  Red 
Cross,  the  Division  of  the  Department  of  Health  having  this  work  in  charge,  the 
sanitorium  officials  and  local  bodies  took  an  active  part  in  its  success. 

Dr.  Brink  by  a  series  of  chest  clinics  in  many  parts  of  the  district  aroused  a 
keen  interest  in,  and  a  desire  for,  the  establishment  of  some  permanent  arrange- 
ment, by  which  they  could  be  carried  on. 

Through  the  Tuberculosis  Association,  the  Red  Cross  consented  to  bear  a 
large  part  of  the  expense  of  an  expert  to  take  charge  of  at  least  two  chest  clinics. 

Accompanied  by  Dr.  Brink,  a  meeting  was  held  with  the  Medical  Association 
of  the  County  of  Renfrew,  and  their  co-operation  secured  for  the  establishment  of 
a  monthly  clinic  in  the  town  of  Pembroke.  Similarly  a  meeting  in  Brockville 
was  held  and  a  clinic  was  arranged  for  twice  a  month  for  the  town  and  county, 
respectively. 

Dr.  Hopkins  of  the  Mowat  Sanitorium,  Kingston,  agreed  to  take  charge  of 
the  clinics  wath  the  co-operation  of  local  associations. 

In  Brockville  the  Rotary  Club  supplemented  the  Red  Cross  grant  \vith  suffi- 
cient to  cover  the  expenses  incurred. 

In  Pembroke  the  two  hospitals  bore  the  extra  expense  as  a  free  offering  to 
the  work. 

The  chest  clinic  is  carried  on  with  the  consent  and  approval  of  the  medical 
men.  It  was  recognized  that  to  make  these  clinics  a  success  it  was  absolutely 
necessary  to  have  the  co-operation  of  the  doctors.  The  arrangements  agreed  upon 
were  that  no  patient  should  be  examined  except  sent  by,  or  recommended  by,  a 
physician,  and  later,  after  careful  examination,  that  the  expert's  findings  and 
the  X-ray  readings  should  be  sent  to  the  patient's  physician  only,  together  with 
such  recommendations  as  seemed  called  for. 

While  advance  cases  were  always  examined,  special  stress  was  laid  upon  the 
examination  of  contacts.  It  was  felt  that  it  was  of  prime  importance  that  after 
a  parent  or  other  member  of  the  family,  died  of  tuberculosis,  the  remaining 
members  of  the  family  would  bear  careful  scrutiny  to  discover  if  before  death  of 
those  w^ho  died  with  tuberculosis,  they  had  passed  the  disease  on  to  those  with 
whom  they  were  in  immediate  contact.  In  this  way  very  many  cases  were  dis- 
covered, who  with  reasonable  care  might  live  out  their  allotted  span  of  life  in 
rea  onable  good  health,  and  free  from  the  danger  of  infecting  others. 

I  confidently  expect  that  during  this  year,  several  more  centres  will  be 
established  in  the  other  counties  where  the  physicians  will  be  enabled  to  get 
ready  access  to  expert  advice. 

In  view  of  the  progress  already  made  in  the  province  in  abating  this  great 
scourge  of  humanity,  it  is  reasonable  to  hope  that  tuberculosis  in  the  near 
future  will  be  very  rare  in  this  end  of  the  province. 

Smallpox 
The  district  was  unusuallv  free  from  this  disease  until  the  month  of  October. 


72 THE  REPORT  OF  THE Xo.  14 

As  showing  the  friendly  co-operation  existing  among  the  pubhc  health 
bodies,  the  first  intimation  I  had  of  the  presence  of  this  disease  was  a  telegram 
from  the  Commissioner  of  Health  of  Detroit  City,  to  the  effect  that  a  young  girl 
coming  from  Eganville,  Renfrew  County,  had  developed  smallpox,  and  that  she 
stated  that  members  of  her  family  at  home  were  similarly  affected. 

On  investigation,  it  was  found  that  the  disease  was  widespread  around  Egan- 
ville, but  that  none  of  the  cases  had  been  treated  by  a  physician. 

A  systematic  campaign  of  vaccination  was  inaugurated  in  which  the  two 
public  health  nurses  stationed  at  Eganville  materially  assisted. 

A  good  deal  of  difficulty  was  experienced  from  men  passing  to  and  from 
lumber  camps  in  the  district  of  Nipissing,  These  camps  had  many  cases  of 
smallpox,  and  until  the  unprotected  men  were  all  vaccinated,  were  a  constant 
source  of  infection.  All  the  northern  townships  of  Renfrew,  were  affected,  and 
several  cases  occurred  also  in  Pembroke,  Renfrew  and  Eganville. 

The  rest  of  the  district  remains  free  except  Rockland  where  there  were 
eight  cases. 

It  is  worthy  of  note  that  in  this  latter  town  practically  100  per  cent,  of  the 
children  were  vaccinated,  and  the  disease  stamped  out  in  a  very  short  time. 

Every  health  officer  in  the  district,  and  through  these,  every  physician  was 
urged  to  be  on  the  lookout  for  suspects  and  they  were  also  encouraged  to  inaugur- 
ate vaccination  campaigns  as  a  preventative.  At  the  end  of  the  year  the  epi- 
demic was  well  under  control,  only  a  few  cases  in  the  township  of  Admaston 
remaining. 

Scarlet  Fever,  Measles  and  Diphtherl\ 

These  diseases  were  much  less  prevalent  than  in  former  years. 

Typhoid 

Nothing  of  the  nature  of  an  epidemic  occurred  during  the  year,  and  the 
sporadic  cases  were  much  less  than  in  former  years. 

Summer  Resorts — Tourist  Camps,  Etc. 

The  Minister  of  Health  having  directed  that  data  be  collected  in  connection 
with  tourist  camps,  etc.,  so  as  to  enable  the  Government  to  draft  a  set  of  regula- 
tions governing  them,  a  very  extensive  and  careful  survey  was  made  during  the 
summer  of  this  year. 

A  detailed  report  on  each  locality,  including  water  analysis,  was  sent  to  the 
department. 

Mr.  Burn,  of  the  Sanitary  Engineering  Division,  accompanied  me  on  the 
tour  of  inspection  which  required  two  months'  time  to  complete. 

Later,  a  conference  was  held  in  Toronto  by  the  district  officers,  and  the 
other  officials  of  the  department  directly  interested  in  this  matter,  and  a  set  of 
regulations  was  drafted  for  the  Minister's  consideration. 

Until  this  investigation  was  made,  I  did  not  realize  the  enormous  extent  and 
importance  of  the  tourist  traffic,  as  it  affects  Eastern  Ontario. 

A  partial  list  of  the  locations  of  importance,  associated  with  the  tourist 
traffic,  visited  follows: 

Stanley  Island,  Lancaster-on-the-Lake,  Hamilton  Island,  Summerstown, 
Stone  House  Point,  Flanagan's  Bay,  Colqutious,  Cornwall,  Long  Sault  Park, 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 73 

Iroquois  Point,  Morrisburg,  Cardinal,  Brockville,  Rockport,  Gananoque,  Thou- 
sand Islands  and  about  twenty  other  small  resorts  along  the  St.  Lawrence  River, 
Kingston,  Collins'  Bay,  Jones'  Falls,  Sand  Lake,  Opinicon  Lake,  Chaffey's  Locks, 
Fosters,  Newboro,  Big  Rideau,  Little  Rideau,  Westport,  Belford  Lakes,  Sand 
Lake,  Portland,  Oliver  Ferry,  Beckett's  Landing,  and  Hogs  Back.  Char'ton 
Lake  region:  Athens,  Delta,  Morton,  Lyndhurst,  Otty  Lake,  Christie's  Lake, 
Oconto  Lake,  Sharbot  Lake,  Calabogie,  Lanark  and  Ferguson's  Falls,  Opiongo 
chain  of  lakes.  Along  the  upper  Ottawa:  Petawawa,  Pembroke,  Cobden,  Forrest- 
er's Falls,  Chat  Falls,  Fitzroy  Harbour. 

Great  numbers  of  wayside  resorts,  most  of  which  were  of  the  small  restaurant 
variety,  along  the  highways  were  inspected.  The  new  regulations  should  make 
great  impro^■ements  in  the  sanitary  conditions  in  the  vast  majority  of  these 
places  catering  to  the  travelling  public,  as  at  present  only  a  small  proportion 
have  establishments  satisfactory  from  a  public  health  view  point. 

Other  Matters  of  Note  Dealt  With 

Cornwall — Inauguration  of  Fly  Creek  drainage  scheme  which  had  been 
a  live  issue  for  many  years  and  will  afford  sewage  facilities  for  half  of  the  town 
area. 

Carleton  Place — Installing  chlorination  plant  in  connection  with  the  local 
waterworks  system. 

Plantagenet — New  conservation  dam  and  filter  in  connection  with  \illage 
water  supply. 

Elgin — Complicated  drainage  problem. 

Athens — Establishment  of  new  cemetery  and  installing  of  a  new  drainage 
system. 

Portsmouth — Installation  of  sewers  in  connection  with  sanitarium. 

Morewood — Treatment  of  over  two  hundred  children  by  toxin-antitoxin  to 
control  a  persistent  outbreak  of  diphtheria. 

Almonte — Establishment  of  milk  lunches  in  the  schools  with  good  results. 

'Alexandria — Installation  of  filter  plant  in  connection  with  the  town's 
water  supply. 

Ottawa — Inaugurated  a  movement  looking  to  the  installation  of  a  filter 
plant  for  the  city's  water  supply. 

Rockland — Fox  farms  in  this  town  and  some  others,  which  are  claimed  to 
be  creating  a  nuisance,  were  regulated  so  as  to  avoid  complaints. 

Brockville — The  Nurses'  Home  in  connection  with  the  General  Hospital 
was  found  very  unsatisfactory,  and  a  promise  was  secured  from  the  Hospital 
Board  that  a  new  building  would  be  erected  in  the  near  future. 

Napanee — Practically  all  the  wells  in  this  town  are  unfit  for  use  as  a  drinking 
water  supply.  Have  inaugurated  a  movement  which  looks  promising  for  the 
installation  of  a  filter  system  in  connection  with  the  civic  water  system. 

Winchester — Considerable  time  has  been  devoted  to  an  effort  to  have  the 
cattle  of  the  County  of  Dundas  tested  for  tuberculosis.  Tentative  arrangements 
have  been  made  with  the  Dominion  authorities  to  have  this  accomplished  next 
year.    The  estimate  of  the  Department  would  not  allow  its  being  done  this  year. 

Summer  Camp,  Y.M.C.A.,  Ottawa  boys'  and  Oconto  girls'  summer  camps 
have  received  several  special  inspections. 


74 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

DISTRICT  NO.  6 
W.  E.  George,  M.B.,  D.P.H. 

I  have  the  honor  to  submit  my  Annual  Report  for  1925. 

Before  approaching  the  subject  of  communicable  diseases.  I  would  like  to 
bring  to  the  attention  of  the  Provincial  Department  of  Health  certain  matters 
which  relate  to  the  general  health  of  this  district.  The  importance  of  medical 
relief  for  indigents  of  unorganized  territory  is  deserving  of  further  consideration 
by  the  Department,  and  such  legislation  as  is  required  should  be  introduced  in 
order  to  make  it  legally  responsible,  with  authority  to  use  its  funds  for  medical 
assistance  of  those  deserving  pioneers  who  inhabit  our  frontiers.  Some  are 
destitute,  or  unable  to  pay  the  excessive  cost  for  medical  attention  to  the  sick 
ones  of  the  family,  due  to  their  isolated  position.  It  is  a  singular  omission 
on  the  part  of  past  governments  that  they  have  provided  no  medical  relief  for  such 
deserving  indigents  of  the  unorganized  territory.  In  cases  of  infectious  disease, 
some  general  legislation  has  been  provided,  but  this  is  largely  a  responsibility 
obtained  for  protection  against  infection  and  the  spread  of  communicable 
disease. 

Past  governments  have  placed  responsibilities  on  organized  municipalities 
for  the  medical  care  of  their  indigent  poor,  but  those  who  settle  on  our  un- 
organized frontiers,  many  of  whom  have  been  induced  to  go  there  by  govern- 
mental authority,  have  had  no  such  protection  from  our  government,  which  was 
the  only  authority  with  powers  which  enable  it  to  function  in  unorganized 
territory.     I  would  recommend  appropriate  legislation  to  mieet  this  need. 

Communicable  Disease 

Only  a  limited  portion  of  District  No.  6  is  surveyed,  some  537  townships. 
In  this  area  only  eighty-four  municipalities  are  organized.  The  result  has  been 
that  communicable  diseases  frequently  came  from  the  unorganized  townships 
to  the  towns  for  treatment.  Towns  often  are  put  to  considerable  expense  to 
care  for  infectious  cases  who  were  not  of  their  citizens.  There  is  no  doubt  that 
the  law,  as  present  constituted,  places  the  responsibility  on  the  municipality  in 
which  the  diseased  person  is.  That  this  is  unjust  when  applied  to  unorganized 
territory  is  beyond  question.  This  matter  has  been  brought  to  the  attention  of 
the  Provincial  Board  of  Health  on  a  number  of  occasions.  As  far  back  as  1917, 
this  was  of  sufficient  importance  to  cause  special  reference  in  the  annual  report 
from  this  office.  In  that  year,  Sudbury  complained  strongly  of  the  injustice  of 
their  legal  responsibilities  as  set  forth  in  the  Health  Act,  for  the  care  of  patients 
suffering  from  infectious  disease,  from  the  unorganized  areas  surrounding  them. 
Since  then.  Parry  Sound,  North  Bay,  Timmins,  Cochrane,  Iroquois  Falls,  New 
Liskeard,  Haileybury  and  Cobalt,  have  made  special  representations  against  the 
injustice  of  the  Act.  A  particularly  objectional  instance  of  this  injustice  was 
brought  to  my  attention  in  August  as  a  result  of  a  diphtheria  case  that  came 
to  Cobalt  from  the  unorganized  village  of  Temagami.  As  a  result  of  this  case, 
the  town  was  faced  with  an  account  of  a  considerable  amount.  In  this  instance, 
your  district  officer  had  the  opportunity  to  strongly  endorse  the  objections  of  the 
Mayor,  Col.  Armstrong,  M.P.  As  a  result,  Hon.  Forbes  Godfrey,  M.D.,  Minister 
of  Health,  with  his  unusually  keen  appreciation  of  the  responsibilities  of  the 
Department,  promptly  broke  all  precedents  and  assumed  a  reasonable  share  of 
the  costs  of  the  case.  There  is  no  reason  to  doubt  but  that  this  new  precedent 
will  be  adopted  as  the  policy  of  the  Department  and  will  be  supported  by  new 
legislation  at  the  earliest  possible  time.

This  office  appreciates  the  objections  to  the  estabhshment  of  precedents, 
but  when  an  injustice  requires  remedy  and  is  followed  by  such  prompt  and  un- 
faltering action,  it  deserves  and  obtains  the  gratitude  of  Health  District  No.  6. 

In  reporting  on  the  returns  of  communicable  diseases,  it  must  be  remembered 
that  outside  of  lumber  and  other  industrial  camps  no  returns  are  made  from  the 
territory  without  municipal  organization.  The  list  of  cases  of  infectious  diseases 
given  below  is  therefore  collected  from  the  weekly  returns  from  thirty-eight  towns 
and  villages,  and  forty-six  townships,  which  represent  the  organized  area  of  this 
district.

I  realize  that  it  is  easy  to  draw  unjustifiable  conclusions  from  the  incidence 
of  communicable  disease.  So,  without  placing  undue  emphasis  upon  it,  let  me 
point  out  that  there  was  more  than  a  thirty-three  per  cent,  drop  in  the  total 
number  of  infectious  cases  reported.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  there  has  been  con- 
siderable increase  and  impro\'ement  in  the  number  of  municipalities  reporting 
regularly,  I  am  of  the  opinion  that  the  drop  is  considerably  greater  than  that 
indicated.  As  there  were  only  277  cases  of  communicable  diseases  reported 
in  the  past  six  months,  this  section  has  had  an  era  of  health  prosperity  which  will 
act  as  an  inspiration  for  future  endeavour.  This  has  been  the  best  half-yearly 
report  that  has  been  reported  from  this  area  since  the  Province  has  had  its  present 
district  organization. 

In  September,  a  small  outbreak  of  scarlet  fever  occurred  in  the  academy  at 
Monteith.  This  is  a  sort  of  boarding  continuation,  or  high  school.  Dr.  Macleod 
tested  all  the  students  by  Dick's  method  and  the  reactors  received  immunizing 
doses  of  antitoxin. 

A  number  of  cases  of  poliomyelitis  occurred  in  Parry  Sound  (8),  and  vicinity 
during  the  summer.  The  seriousness  of  the  results  and  the  helplessness  of  our 
measures  of  prevention  were  most  in  evidence. 


76 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

There  were  a  few  cases  of  typhoid  reported,  with  but  one  death.  After  such 
outbreaks  as  occurred  in  Cochrane  in  1922  and  1923,  it  is  to  be  expected  that 
Northern  Ontario  will  contribute  a  few  cases  each  year  for  the  next  few  years. 
It  is  reasonably  satisfactory  that  only  twelve  cases  were  reported  during  the  year. 

Infectious  disease  in  the  lumber  and  construction  camps  is  something  that 
requires  more  careful  supervision  than  has  been  given  to  it  during  the  past 
year. 

The  sanitary  inspectors  of  this  district  have  been  most  courteous  and  have 
established  an  attitude  of  splendid  co-operation  with  the  district  officer.  It  is 
desirable,  therefore,  that  all  cases  of  infectious  diseases  in  camps  be  reported  to 
the  district  officer  and  the  measures  instituted  for  control  be  agreed  upon  and 
adopted  between  him  and  the  inspector  for  the  affected  area.  Smallpox  has 
occurred  in  three  camps,  and  typhoid  in  at  least  two. 

Public  Health  Nursing 

Miss  Heeley,  I  regret  to  say,  resigned  toward  the  end  of  the  summer.  It 
will  not  be  easy  to  replace  such  energy,  efficiency  and  co-operation.  She  carried 
on  survey  work  in  the  villages  along  the  Canadian  National  Railway  (old  Grand 
Trunk)  in  the  District  of  Parry  Sound,  between  Powassan  and  Scotia  Junction, 
and  along  the  line  east  and  west  of  this  point.  Clinics  were  held  in  Powassan, 
Trout  Creek,  South  River,  Sundridge  and  Burk's  Falls.  These  were  largely 
attended  and  gave  such  support  to  the  nurse's  hands  that  many  defects  were 
corrected. 

Toward  the  end  of  the  year  Miss  Hally  was  entailed  to  do  permanent  work 
over  the  area  recently  covered  by  Miss  Heeley.  During  the  year  Miss  Hally 
carried  on  rural  surveys  in  the  following  townships:  Field,  Bageron,  Bastedo, 
Hugel,  Creasor,  Springer,  Caldwell  and  Kirkpatrick.  The  nurse  also  went  to 
Sturgeon  Falls  for  a  while  to  assist  Miss  Nault. 

In  June  she  went  to  Kapuskasing,  where  a  splendid  survey  was  carried  to 
completion.  This  terminated  with  a  clinic  which  w^as  one  of  the  most  successful 
ever  held  in  this  district. 

Toward  the  end  of  the  year  she  began  permanent  work  in  Parry  Sound,  as 
mentioned  above. 

Rural  surveys  have  been  notoriously  void  of  obtaining  corrections  of  defects. 
Parents,  however,  take  more  care  with  communicable  diseases,  and  make  more 
preparation  for  confinements,  etc.  It  would  seem  that  the  only  satisfactory 
method  in  rural  areas  is  to  carry  the  corrections  to  the  children,  as  is  being  pro- 
posed for  the  dental  clinic  by  Dr.  Conboy. 

One  of  the  problems  of  the  unorganized  townships  is  that  some  children 
are  too  far  from  school  to  attend,  w^hile  some  parents  take  their  families  to  the 
bush  in  the  winter.     In  this  way  the  children  have  absolutely  no  schooling. 

In  October  a  special  nurse  was  sent  to  this  district  to  carry  on  a  survey  at 
Kirkland  Lake.    This  work  was  not  completed  at  the  close  of  the  year. 

The  Red  Cross  have  been  doing  certain  public  health  survey  work  in  the 
neighbourhood  of  North  Bay.  Two  treatment  clinics  were  held  during  the  year 
in  the  village  of  Bonfield.  Tonsils  were  removed  in  about  forty  children,  most  of 
whom  were  indigent.  Teeth  were  extracted  or  filled  in  about  one  hundred  and 
fifty  more.  This  was  a  most  creditable  piece  of  work  and  I  was  delighted  to  be 
able  to  attend  the  first  clinic,  held  in  July. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 77 

Thesis 

It  was  required  for  my  diploma  in  public  health  that  I  prepare  a  thesis  on 

public  health  in  the  unorganized  districts  of  Northern  Ontario.     This  required 

a  great  deal  of  reading  and  search,  which  continued  up  to  the  end  of  September. 

All  annual  reports  since  1888  had  to  be  reviewed.     It  is  gratifying  to  report  that 

the  only  copy  now  in  existence  of  the  first  camp  regulations,  brought  down  by 

the  Provincial  Board  of  Health  in  1891,  was  finally  obtained  and  these  regulations 

were  re-written  in  full  and  preserved.     It  is  to  be  regretted  that  the  standard 

plans,  of  buildings  are  not  having  similar  treatment  in  order  to  preserve  the 

records. 

^  Tourist  Camps  and  Summer  Cottages 

■^ 

Summer  tourist  camps  in   this  district  number  five,   and   are  located  at 

Sundridge,  Trout  Creek,  North  Bay  and  Sudbury.  Efforts  were  made  to  draw 
up  a  list  of  minimum  requirements:  safe  water  supply,  sanitary  privies  or  water 
closets,  garbage  receptacles,  cleanliness,  etc. 

Where  cottages  were  located  on  a  body  of  water  used  as  a  public  water  supply 
efforts  were  made  to  have  a  house-to-house  inspection  of  the  sanitary  con- 
veniences and  measures  employed  to  protect  the  water. 

Minister's  Visit 

The  Hon.  Dr.  Forbes  Godfrey  made  a  visit  to  this  district  during  August, 
accompanied  by  his  deputy.  Dr.  W.  J.  Bell.  They  visited  Timmins  and  Iroquois 
Falls.  It  is  regretted  that  their  itinerary  did  not  permit  them  to  visit  a  number 
of  other  towns  that  were  planning  for  their  visit.  As  much  of  their  time  as 
possible  was  made  use  of  during  their  short  visit.  Those  who  followed  them  were 
convinced  that  the  Minister  and  his  deputy  filled  the  various  duties  and  many 
demands  made  upon  them  with  a  spirit  which  inspired  confidence  in  the  sincerity 
of  their  efforts. 

Water  Supplies 

Iroquois  Falls  has  just  completed  a  splendid  water  treatment  plant.  The 
treatment  permits  of  storage  for  four  hours  at  maximum  pumpage.  Alum  and 
lime^  to  aid  precipitation  and  filtration,  are  added  as  the  water  enters  the  tank. 
The  water  is  then  filtered  and  passes  to  a  second  storage,  from  which  it  is  pumped 
to  the  town  mains. 

Ansonville  completed  arrangements  with  Iroquios  Falls  during  the  past  year 
to  obtain  their  supply  from  that  town  as  soon  as  their  new  plant  can  be  put  into 
operation.  The  mains  have  been  laid  and  the  connections  installed,  so  that  there 
will  be  no  delay  as  soon  as  the  water  is  available. 

North  Bay  depends  on  chlorination  for  the  protection  of  its  water  supply. 

Elk  Lake.  Quite  a  number  of  citizens  obtain  their  domestic  supply  of  water 
from  Bear  Creek,  but  since  at  least  the  overflow  of  one  septic  tank  empties  into 
the  stream  above  the  intake  pipes  for  domestic  supplies,  and  since  considerable 
dangerous  drainage  is  bound  to  reach  the  river  from  the  dwellings  along  its 
banks,  I  have  pointed  out  that  the  water  taken  from  this  river  is  exposed  to  these 
dangers  and  have  advised  that  the  use  of  the  river  as  a  water  supply  within  the 
town  limits  be  prohibited. 

Burk's  Falls.  This  town  obtains  its  water  supply  from  Reazen  Lake, 
located  three  miles  from  town.  The  water  comes  down  by  gravity.  The 
water  is  of  a  dark  brown  colour  and  has  a  rank  odour.  A  mechanical  filter  has 
been  installed,  but  up  to  the  present  it  has  been  impossible  to  get  efficiency  out

78  THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

of  it.  Our  Sanitary  Engineering  Division  have  given  generous  assistance  to 
the  municipaHty  in  order  that  the  filter  would  give  the  town  the  protection  which 
the  expense  warrants.  Toward  the  end  of  the  year  the  Engineering  Division 
informed  me  that  they  had  discovered  a  certain  coagulant  that  gave  promise  of 
solving  the  Burk's  Falls  difficulty.  An  effort  was  to  be  made  late  in  the  year 
to  give  the  new  coagulant  a  trial,  but  I  was  not  informed  as  to  the  results. 

Milk  Supplies 

An  investigation  of  the  milk  production  at  Iroquois  Falls  was  made  early 
in  December.     A  copy  of  the  report  is  enclosed. 

The  spread  of  milk  prices,  from  producer  to  consumer,  requires  investigation 
as  there  is  reason  to  believe  that  the  milk  dealers  add  to  their  profits  by  an  increase 
in  price  during  the  winter  time.  The  milk  dealer  is  not  confronted  with  any 
striking  increase  in  cost  in  winter  that  will  warrant  an  increase  of  price.  No 
objection  can  be  made  to  reasonable  increases  to  the  producers. 

Dental  Clinics 

Dr.  Conboy  made  a  visit  to  a  number  of  towns  in  my  district  during 
November.  Dental  surveys  have  been  begun  in  North  Bay,  Cobalt,  Haile^'bury, 
while  the  matter  is  receiving  consideration  by  a  number  of  other  municipalities. 
Undoubtedly,  the  rural  areas  are  most  in  need  of  dental  care.  A  solution  of  the 
problem  has  been  suggested  by  Dr.  Conboy,  the  Director  of  Dental  Services, 
that  the  corrections  be  taken  to  them  free,  or  at  a  nominal  charge. 

Recommendations 

1.  I  cannot  too  strongly  recommend  that  the  sanitary  inspectors  be  placed 
under  the  supervision  of  the  district  officers  and  that  at  least  one  sanitary 
inspector  be  attached  to  each  district.  These  men  could  supervise  nuisances 
and  unsanitary  conditions,  leaving  the  district  officer  the  more  important  work 
of  communicable  diseases,  including  tuberculosis  and  venereal  diseases;  infant 
mortality;  school  inspection;  milk  and  food;  public  health  education;  vital 
statistics;    indigent  medical  relief. 

History  has  given  us  examples  of  the  failure  of  public  health  when  physicians 
were  placed  under  lay-men  and  our  department  should  avoid  such  repetition  of 
failure  by  placing  the  supervision  of  the  sanitary  inspectors  under  the  district 
officers. 

2.  Northern  Ontario,  meaning  the  unorganized  districts,  should  be  placed 
under  separate  health  supervision  from  the  rest  of  the  Province,  wit'i  a  separate 
management  or  organization.  The  Act  should  be  so  amended  as  to  deal 
specifically  with  the  peculiar  problems  of  the  unorganized  districis.  At  present, 
outside  the  camp  regulations,  the  Health  Act  refers  to  the  unorganized  area  only 
in  generalities.  I  would  suggest  that  an  assistant  to  the  Deputy  Minister 
should  be  appointed,  who  would  have  charge  of  this  work.  The  problems  of 
the  unorganized  areas  with  their  relations  to  organized  areas,  have  become  such 
that  immediate  solution  is  most  desirable. 

Report  on  the  Iroquois  Falls  Dairy 

The  investigation  of  this  dairy  began  on  Wednesday  morning,  December 
2nd,  1925,  between  6  and  6.30  a.m.,  and  was  in  compliance  with  a  request  of  the 
medical  officer.  Dr.  H.  Maitland  Young,  and  the  company's  official,  A.  T. 
McDonald,  under  whose  department  the  dairy  is  operated. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 79 

At  the  beginning,  I  would  like  to  express  my  gratitude  to  Mr.  Bean,  the 
manager  of  the  dairy,  and  his  staff,  who  by  their  courtesy  and  kindness  con- 
tributed largely  to  the  efficiency  of  the  investigation.  Their  courtesy  was  not 
diminished  even  when  in  the  natural  course  their  personal  cleanliness  and 
technique  came  in  for  its  share  of  criticism. 

Although  general  observations  and  recommendations  were  frequently 
being  made  throughout  the  survey,  yet  some  systematic  method  had  to  be 
followed.  The  method  adopted  in  this  particular  case  was  largely  suggested 
by  my  location  during  the  investigation.  For  example,  the  cleanliness  of  the 
stables,  cleanliness  of  cows  and  cleanliness  of  the  men  were  observed  in  the 
stables.  The  cleanliness  of  utensils  was  observed  in  the  milk  house,  and  handling 
of  milk  in  both  stable  and  milk  house. 

The  following  are  the  headings  in  the  order  the  observations  were  made:

pasteurizer  and  cooler, 
bottles, 
[washing  equipment. 


Milk  samples  were  taken  each  day  and  the  results  helped  to  guide  us  in  the 
improvements  suggested. 

The  stable  consists  of  two  rows  of  cows  about  twelve  to  fifteen  feet  apart, 
with  a  central  feed  passage,  and  plank  floors  and  gutters.  The  cow  stand  is 
raised  three  or  four  inches  higher  on  the  front  side  of  the  gutter  than  on  the  side 
of  the  barrow  walk.  The  cows  are  tied  with  iron  stanchions  and  each  cow  is 
separated  by  an  iron  stall  partition.  One  end  of  the  cow-barn  is  used  to  house 
the  horses,  dry  cows,  calves  and  provide  such  number  of  box  stalls  as  are  required. 
The  stable  is  reasonably  well  drained  and  the  manure  is  removed  over  fifty  feet 
from  the  stable.  The  walls  are  of  lumber  and  are  whitewashed.  The  roof  is  the 
ceiling  in  the  summer  but  during  winter  a  temporary  board  ceiling  is  put  in  for 
the  purpose  of  preventing  moisture  precipitating  on  the  inside  of  the  roof  and 
running  down  into  the  stable.  This  was  a  matter  of  annoyance  for  some  time. 
The  procedure  has  been  successful.  Reasonable  window  lighting  has  been  pro- 
vided;   about  three  square  feet  per  animal. 

L  Cleanliness  of  Stables 

It  was  found  that  the  manure  was  being  regularly  removed  from  the  stables 
and  that  the  cow  stands  and  barrow  walk  were  being  sprinkled  with  saw  dust. 
The  frontal  feed  passage  was  not  swept  before  milking. 

Advice: 

(a)  In  order  to  free  the  stable  of  everything  which  produces  dust,  sweep 
cow  stands  and  frontal  feed  passage  and  barrow  walk  well  and  in  sufficient  time 
before  milking  to  allow  the  dust  to  settle.     Absorb  any  moisture  with  slaked  lime. 


80 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

(b)  In  order  to  free  stable  of  odours  which  are  absorbed  by  the  milk,  a  tight 
partition  should  be  built  between  the  cow  barn  and  the  part  of  the  stable  used  for 
horses,  dry  cows,  box  stalls,  etc. 

2.  Cleanliness  of  Cows 

The  cows'  flanks  were  clipped  and  clean,  but  the  cows'  udders  were  not 
being  cleaned  by  washing  or  wiping  with  a  wet  cloth,  nor  were  the  flanks  brushed 
free  of  loose  dust  previous  to  milking. 

Advice: 

Wipe  udders  carefully  with  a  damp  or  wet  cloth  fifteen  minutes  before 
milking. 

Flanks  are  to  be  brushed  free  from  loose  dust  at  the  same  time. 

3.  Cleanliness  of  Milkers 

The  hands  were  being  carefully  washed  before  commencing  to  milk,  but  no 
effort  was  being  made  to  keep  the  hands  clean.  Hands  were  placed  against 
cows  to  push  them  over  or  to  brush  off  the  flanks  before  beginning  to  milk. 
Stanchions  or  stall  partitions  or  other  dusty  materials  were  handled  without  due 
regard  for  the  maintenance  of  clean  hands. 

Clean  clothing  was  not  being  worn  during  milking  hours. 

Advice: 

When  the  hands  are  washed  carefully  previous  to  milking,  great  care  must 
be  exercised  to  keep  the  hands  from  coming  in  contact  with  anything  but  the 
clean  utensils  and  the  clean  udders  during  the  whole  milking  time.  This  is  the 
most  difficult  part  in  the  production  of  clean  milk. 

Milk  pails  should  be  supplied  with  handles  on  the  sides  in  order  that  they 
can  be  emptied  without  placing  hands  on  the  bottom  of  the  pails. 

Clean  long  white  coats  or  short  white  coats  and  white  aprons  should  be 
worn  during  milking. 

4.  Cleanliness  of  Utensils 

The  bottles,  cans,  milking  machines  and  pails  are  all  washed  in  the  bottling 
room.  This  is  likely  to  produce  heavy  growths  of  bacteria  in  too  close  proximity 
to  the  bottling  plant,  where  the  clean  milk  is  being  handled. 

The  utensils  were  fairly  well  washed  and  the  bottles  rinsed  with  running 
water,  but  the  efforts  at  sterilization  and  the  equipment  for  the  purpose  were  very 
ineffectual.  There  is  no  equipment  whereby  the  utensils  can  be  sterilized  with 
boiling  water  or  steam.  It  is  true  that  a  steam  hose  is  turned  into  the  milking 
machine  pails,  the  milk  pails  and  the  pasteurizer,  but  this  is  not  carried  on 
sufficiently  long  to  sterilize.  Indeed,  there  is  no  method  of  retaining  the  heat 
until  sterilization  is  effected.  An  effort  is  made  to  secure  sterilization  by  a  strong 
solution  of  chlorine,  with  the  results  noted  in  the  chart  on  the  past  page. 

The  milking  machines  and  the  milk  pails  were  proven  by  bacterial  counts 
from  the  washings  of  these  utensils  to  be  non-sterile  and  therefore  required 
some  more  efficient  method  of  sterilization.  The  bacterial  counts  from  the 
rest  of  the  equipment  indicated  that  sterilization  had  been  much  more  effective. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 81 

Advice: 

(a)  All  utensils  which  can  be  placed  in  boiling  water  should  have  this 
treatment  for  five  minutes.  Bottles  could  be  brought  up  slowly  to  the  boiling 
point. 

(b)  Whatever  equipment  is  necessary'  in  order  to  sterilize  with  steam  or 
boiling  water  is  recommended. 

(c)  Separate  room  should  be  supplied  for  washing  utensils. 

5.  Handling  the  Milk 

The  milk  is  first  received  into  the  milking  maching  pails,  which  are  emptied 
into  a  milk  can  in  the  stable.  From  the  milk  can  the  milk  was  poured  into 
pails  and  carried  to  the  pasteurizer.     The  milk  comes  in  contact  with — 

1st — milking  machine  pails, 

2nd — can, 

3rd — pails, 

4th — pasteurizer. 

The  night's  milk  was  placed  in  the  pasteurizer  and  cold  water  circulated 
through  it  all  night.  In  the  morning  the  temperature  of  the  night's  milk  was 
brought  up  to  body  heat  and  maintained  at  this  temperature  throughout  the 
time  of  milking,  with  the  idea  of  preventing  souring  produced  by  adding  fresh 
warm  milk  to  the  cold  milk  of  the  previous  night. 

The  milk  was  being  pasteurized  at  147°F.  for  half  an  hour  in  order  to  keep 
down  the  bacterial  count.  This  temperature  largely  destroys  the  cream  line. 
There  is  no  recording  thermometer  on  the  pasteurizer. 

The  price  of  milk  in  Iroquois  Falls  is  eighteen  cents  per  quart.  This  appears 
to  me  to  be  excessive.  Milk  is  one  of  the  best  articles  in  the  diet  of  children. 
It  is  also  a  fact  that  there  is  no  article  of  food  whose  consumption  is  so 
influenced  by  the  cost  to  the  consumer  as  is  milk.  Everything,  therefore, 
which  can  be  done  to  lower  the  cost  to  the  consumer  greatly  increases  its  con- 
sumption. Pasteurization  at  147°F.  largely  destroys  the  cream  line.  The  small 
quantity  of  cream  rising  to  the  top  of  the  bottle  had  a  strong  influence  on  the 
appearance  of  the  milk  and  naturally  influenced  its  use. 

Advic^: 

(a)  Night's  milk  should  not  be  heated  to  body  temperature  in  the  morning  and 
maintained  there  during  milking,  as  this  greatly  increases  the  bacterial  count, 
but  should  be  kept  below  45°F.  until  all  the  milk  is  ready  for  pasteurization. 

(b)  Milk  should  go  directly  from  milking  machine  pails  to  the  cooler  and 
thence  to  the  pasteurizer. 

(c  Pasteurization  should  not  be  carried  out  above  140°F.  for  half  an  hour. 
This  temperature  will  improve  the  appearance  of  the  cream  line  and  help  to 
increase  its  consumption. 

(d)  The  temperature  and  length  of  pasteurization  should  be  controlled  by 
a  recording  thermometer.  This  equipment  should  be  added  to  the  pasteurizer 
and  the  records  kept  by  the  Board  of  Health. 

(e)  If  the  company  would  drop  the  price  to  fifteen  cents  and  an  active 
propaganda  be  carried  on  by  the  local  board  of  health  pointing  out  the  value 
and  importance  of  milk  as  food,  and  if  the  board  can  assure  the  public  that  the 
milk  is  being  produced  under  such  conditions  as  are  prescribed  here,  I  believe 
the  consumption  will  increase  sufficiently  to  warrant  the  reduction  from  eighteen 
to  fifteen  cents.

THE  REPORT  OF  THE 


Xo.  14 


As  the  consumption  at  present  is  only  one-third  pint  per  individual  per 
day,  it  is  absolute  proof  that  the  children  are  being  denied  this  food. 

In  conclusion,  let  me  say  that  the  dairy  scored  sixty  points  out  of  a  total  of 
one  hundred,  using  the  division  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture,  forty 
points  for  equipment  and  sixty  for  methods. 

The  recommendations  made  under  the  different  headings  will  increase  the 

score  to  above     eighty  and  can   be  done  with   practically   the  same  cost  of 

production.

DISTRICT  No.  7 
G.  L.  Sparks,  M.D. 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  the  following  annual  report  for  1925  for  District 
No.  7  which  includes  the  Districts  of  Thunder  Bay,  Rainy  River,  Kenora  and 
Patricia. 

At  the  close  of  the  1925  annual  meeting  in  Toronto  of  the  Ontario  Health 
Officers'  Association,  the  district  officers  were  called  into  conference  with  the 
recently    appointed    Deputy    Minister    of    Health.     At    this    conference    the 


1926 PROVINXIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 83 

Minister's  instructions  regarding  weekly  reports  and  other  routine  matters  were 
explained  to  us;  and  I  gathered  that  my  most  important  public  health  duty 
during  the  summer  season  would  be  to  accompany  an  engineer  from  the  Sanitary 
Engineering  Division  on  a  survey  of  motor  tourist  camps  and  summer  resorts  in 
District  No.  7.  This  survey  took  precedence  over  all  but  emergency  work;  and 
it  was  commenced  about  the  middle  of  June,  lasting  (with  an  intermission  of 
ten  days)  until  the  middle  of  August.  Previous  to  the  commencement  of  the 
survey  I  visited  the  newspaper  editors  at  the  ''Head  of  the  Lakes,"  acting  under 
instructions  from  the  Deputy  Minister  of  Health.  Articles  and  editorials 
dealing  with  the  proposed  survey  appeared  in  the  Fort  William  and  Port  Arthur 
newspapers;  and  the  publicity  given  to  the  survey  was  apparently  gratifying 
to  the  Deputy  Minister  of  Health.  Mr.  E.  W.  Johnston  from  the  Sanitary 
Engineering  Division,  was  the  engineer  assigned  to  District  No.  7;  and  I 
endeavoured  to  guide  Mr.  Johnston  to  as  many  of  the  summer  camps,  refresh- 
ment booths  and  resorts  as  I  could  locate.  Mr.  Johnston  made  voluminous 
notes  upon  printed  blank  forms  in  regard  to  each  of  the  places  visited;  and  when 
all  the  information  bearing  upon  motor  tourist  camps,  summer  resorts  and 
refreshment  booths  in  District  No.  7  is  tabulated  and  classified  it  should  be 
of  considerable  value  to  the  department.  During  the  course  of  the  survey 
inspections'^were  made  of  the  water  supply  and  sewage-disposal  systems  of  the 
following  C.N.R.  divisional  points:  Atikokan,  Redditt.  Sioux  Lookout,  Arm- 
strong and  Nakina.  One  divisional  point  on  the  C.P.R.  (Ignace)  was  also  visited 
and  a  similar  inspection  made. 

While  the  above-mentioned  survey  was  in  progress  I  was  notified  by 
the  Deputy  Minister  of  Health  regarding  the  Minister's  proposed  summer  tour 
into  District  No.  7;  and  in  connection  therewith  I  was  instructed  to  visit  the 
following  towns:  Dryden,  Kenora,  Rainy  River  and  Fort  Frances.  The  visits 
were  duly  made  and  I  also  made  a  special  visit  to  Oxdrift  in  the  District  of 
Kenora  to  attend  the  clinic  held  in  the  Oxdrift  Community  Hall  on  the  date  of 
the  Minister's  visit  to  that  place.  The  Minister's  tour  of  the  district  was 
concluded  by  visits  to  Fort  William  and  Port  Arthur.  It  was  my  privilege  to 
attend  at  a  very  enjoyable  dinner  in  each  of  the  above-mentioned  cities  where 
the  respective  local  boards  of  health  acted  as  hosts  to  the  Minister  and  his 
Deputy. 

Dairies 

During  the  intervals  of  the  open  season  preceding  and  following  the  two 
months'  summer  resort  survey,  attempts  were  made  to  carry  on  routine  sanitary 
inspections  in  municipalities  and  also  in  connection  with  public  schools  situated 
in  territory  without  municipal  organization.  The  increase  of  routine  office 
work  in  addition  to  the  above-mentioned  special  survey  made  it  impossible  to 
devote  the  usual  amount  of  time  to  these  inspections;  but  visits  were  made  to  a 
number  of  municipalities;  and  dairies  were  inspected  in  Port  Arthur  (and 
Mclntyre  Township),  Fort  William,  Schreiber  and  Sioux  Lookout.  It  was 
encouraging  to  find  evidence  of  increased  interest  in  the  matter  of  tuberculin 
testing  of  dairy  herds.  Shortly  before  my  visit  to  the  Town  of  Sioux  Lookout, 
at  about  the  beginning  of  October,  nearly  all  the  cattle  in  the  town  had  been 
tuberculin  tested  by  veterinary  inspectors  with  the  result  that  some  of  the 
dairymen  had  lost  nearly  their  entire  herds.  The  results  of  the  tests  in  Sioux 
Lookout  w^ould  apparently  justify  the  opinion  that  tuberculin  testing  of  all  dairy 
herds  in  the  district  should  be  made  compulsory. 


84 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

Milk-pasteurization  plants  are  in  operation  in  Port  Arthur,  Fort  William 
and  Kenora.  Recording  thermometers  are  installed  in  connection  with  three 
plants  (one  in  Port  Arthur  and  two  in  Fort  William).  During  the  month  of 
April  the  local  health  authorities  of  the  City  of  Port  Arthur  sent  a  number  of 
samples  of  milk  to  the  department's  Fort  William  Branch  Laboratory  for  bacterial 
counts.  Since  the  month  of  May  the  local  health  authorities  of  the  City  of 
Fort  William  have  sent  in  milk  samples  at  intervals  for  bacterial  counts.  This 
is  a  step  in  the  right  direction;  as  both  Port  Arthur  and  Fort  William  have 
laboratory  facilities  within  reach  for  a  certain  definite  amount  of  this  work  to 
be  carried  on  throughout  the  year. 

Water  Supplies 

Water  supplies  have  been  supervised  so  far  as  time  would  permit.  Fortun- 
ately the  immediate  supervision  of  w^ater-chlorination  plants  is  under  the 
jurisdiction  of  engineers  from  the  Sanitary  Engineering  Division.  Railway 
water  supplies  at  the  divisional  points  specified  above  have  been  fully  dealt 
with  in  the  reports  submitted  to  the  department  by  the  Sanitary  Engineering 
Division. 

Schools  in  Territory  Without  Municipal  Organization 

A  few  schools  in  territory  w^ithout  municipal  organization  were  inspected 
as  to  sanitary  conditions;  and  reports  were  submitted  to  the  school  boards  and 
to  the  Provincial  Board  of  Health.  The  number  of  public  and  separate  schools 
in  territory  without  municipal  organization  in  District  No.  7  precludes  the 
possibility  of  a  general  inspection  of  such  institutions  by  your  district  officer. 

Sewage  Disposal 

Conditions  as  to  sewage  disposal  in  municipalities  are  practically  the  same 
as  in  previous  years,  except  that  sewers  have  been  extended  throughout  a  portion 
of  the  "Coal  Dock  Area"  in  Ward  No.  1,  City  of  Fort  William.  Owing  to  the 
low  level  of  this  area  it  became  necessary  for  the  city  to  construct  a  pumping- 
station  so  as  to  facilitate  the  discharge  of  sewage  into  the  Kaministiquia  River.. 
I  understand  from  reports  issued  by  the  local  medical  officer  of  health  that  the 
majority  of  householders  in  the  "Coal  Dock  Area"  have  not  taken  advantage  of 
the  sewage  facilities  provided  by  the  city.  An  amendment  to  the  Public  Health 
Act  is  in  order  so  that  local  boards  of  health  may  have  the  power  of  compelling 
sewer  connections  with  premises  when  considered  necessary  in  the  interest  of 
public  health. 

On  looking  over  a  copy  of  the  annual  report  for  1925  as  submitted  by  Dr.. 
W.  E.  C.  Day,  Medical  Officer  of  Health,  Town  of  Sioux  Lookout,  I  find  the 
following  statement:  "We  have,  also,  at  last  succeeded  in  having  the  railroad 
company  install  a  proper  sewage  disposal.  Considering  the  length  of  time  and 
efforts  that  have  been  made  in  past  years  this  is  a  matter  of  very  special 
gratification." 

Night  Soil,  Manure  and  Garbage  Disposal 

The  disposal  of  night  soil,  manure  and  garbage  has  been  carried  on  under- 
practically  the  same  conditions  as  noted  in  my  annual  report  for  1924. 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 85 

Communicable  Diseases 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  an  outbreak  of  smallpox  occurred  in  the  Town 
of  Kenora.  A  visit  was  made  to  the  municipality  about  the  end  of  January; 
and  after  strenuous  work  on  the  part  of  the  local  health  authorities  the  outbreak 
was  limited  to  about  six  or  seven  cases.  Section  12  (twelve)  of  the  Vaccination 
Act  was  brought  into  force  during  the  outbreak  in  Kenora  by  order  of  the 
town  council  and  proclamation  issued  by  the  mayor. 

Xo  other  serious  outbreak  of  smallpox  requiring  the  personal  attention  of 
your  district  officer  occurred  until  about  the  end  of  November  when  an  indigent 
case  was  discovered  at  Atikokan — a  C.N.R.  divisional  point  in  territory  without 
mmunicipal  organization  in  the  District  of  Rainy  River.  The  provincial  gaol 
being  the  only  available  building  in  the  community,  was  converted  into  an 
emergency  isolation  hospital;  and  everything  possible  was  done  for  the  care 
and  comfort  of  the  patient  and  for  the  protection  of  the  public.  After  a  week's 
illness  in  this  building  the  patient  died;  and  arrangements  were  immediately 
made  for  his  burial  by  an  undertaker  at  the  expense  of  the  Ontario  Department 
of  Health.  Up  to  the  end  of  1925  two  additional  cases  of  smallpox  developed 
at  Atikokan,  one  case  proving  fatal.  I  understand  that  the  District  Provincial 
Sanitary  Inspector  (Mr.  W.  C.  Millar),  who  had  been  ordered  to  Atikokan  under 
instructions  from  the  Deputy  Minister  of  Health,  personally  performed  the  duties 
of  an  undertaker  in  connection  with  the  burial  of  this  second  fatal  case  of  small- 
pox. L'p  to  the  time  of  writing  two  more  cases  of  smallpox  have  developed  in 
Atikokan,  but  with  practically  universal  vaccination  in  the  community,  including 
re-vaccinations  of  "non-takes."  it  is  hoped  that  the  outbreak  will  not  assume 
the  proportions  of  an  epidemic.  I  may  add  that  the  first  fatal  case  had  never 
been  vaccinated;  and  I  understood  from  the  District  Provincial  Sanitary 
Inspector  that  the  second  fatal  case  had  never  been  vaccinated.  Of  the  remain- 
ing three  cases  that  have  occurred  to  the  date  of  this  report,  one — of  moderate 
severity — had  been  vaccinated  successfully  between  forty-five  and  fifty  years 
ago  and  never  vaccinated  since.  The  other  two  cases  had  never  been  vaccinated 
previous  to  the  recent  appearance  of  smallpox  in  the  community;  but  they 
were  unsuccessfully  vaccinated  on  two  separate  occasions  during  the  course  of 
the  outbreak. 

Two  mild  cases  of  smallpox  at  Rocky  Inlet  (in  territory  without  municipal 
organization)  in  the  District  of  Rainy  River,  at  a  point  about  eighty  (80)  miles 
west  of  Atikokan,  had  apparently  no  connection  with  the  cases  at  the  latter 
place.  Neither  of  the  Rocky  Inlet  cases  had  had  a  successful  vaccination 
previous  to  the  onset  of  the  disease. 

During  the  year  two  unsuccessful  attempts  were  made  to  induce  the 
Canadian  Pacific  and  Canadian  National  Railways  to. assume  responsibility  for 
the  provision  of  sanatorium  treatment  for  two  sectionmen  ill  of  tuberculosis, 
and  employed  in  territory  without  municipal  organization.  The  regulations 
apparently  are  not  sufificiently  explicit  regarding  this  point;  and  the  railway 
companies,  or  their  physicians,  refused  to  admit  responsibility  for  provision  of 
sanatorium  treatment  for  the  above-mentioned  employees.  After  considerable 
difficulty  I  succeeded  in  securing  a  pass  for  the  Canadian  Pacific  Railway 
employee  from  Osko  to  Weston ;  but  the  Canadian  National  Railway  employee 
travelled  from  Superior  Junction  to  Toronto  in  some  manner  unknown  to  me. 
He  eventually  appeared  at  the  Out-Patients'  Department  of  the  Toronto  General 
Hospital  from  which  institution  he  was  sent  to  the  Toronto  Hospital  for  Con- 
sumptives at  Weston.     I  understand  that  in  both  instances  the  expenses  of  the 


86 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

patients'  maintenance  and  treatment  at  the  sanatorium  were  finally  assumed  by 
the  Ontario  Department  of  Health. 

A  visit  was  made  about  the  beginning  of  October  to  deal  with  a  small  out- 
break of  scarlet  fever  in  the  unorganized  Township  of  Drayton,  District  of 
Kenora. 

During  the  winter  season,  complaints  were  received  regarding  an  outbreak 
of  measles  in  the  unorganized  Township  of  Lybster  adjoining  the  Municipality 
of  Gillies.  The  fyle  of  correspondence  in  connection  with  this  outbreak  of 
measles  is  an  illustration  of  the  difificult  public  health  problem  presented  by  the 
unorganized  agricultural  townships  thrown  open  for  settlement.  The  present 
part-time  system  of  medical  officers  of  health  will  no  doubt  continue  in  existence 
for  some  years  in  connection  with  rural  municipalities  in  this  district.  The 
creation  of  local  health  machinery  to  function  in  the  unorganized  agricultural 
townships  thrown  open  for  settlement  in  District  No.  7  would  appear  to  be  the 
logical  public  health  procedure.  I  believe  that  the  provision  of  adequate 
local  health  machinery  for  the  above-mentioned  unorganized  agricultural 
townships  is  the  most  pressing  public  health  requirement  in  this  district  at  the 
present  time  if  we  are  to  have  uniform  public  health  protection  in  the  rural  areas. 

The  following  table  has  been  compiled  from  the  weekly  returns  of  communic- 
able diseases  sent  to  this  office  as  having  been  recei\'ed  by  the  department  from 
the  secretaries  of  local  boards  of  health  in  District  No.  7  during  the  year  1925. 
The  figures  are  not  to  be  taken  as  the  exact  numbers  of  cases  and  deaths  from 
communicable  diseases;  but  they  may  have  some  value  as  an  index  of  the 
communicable  diseases  reported  from  municipalities  in  the  district: 

Disease  Cases    Deaths                                  Disease

It  is  to  be  noted  that  in  some  instances,  the  returns  were  incomplete  even 
to  the  extent  of  reporting  more  deaths  than  cases. 

Medical  Inspection  of  Schools 

As  noted  earlier  in  this  report  I  was  able  to  carry  on  sanitary  inspections  of 
a  few  schools  in  territory  without  municipal  organization;  but  the  routine 
medical  inspection  of  the  pupils  in  the  above  institutions  is  an  unsolved  problem 
at  the  present  time.  In  one  or  two  instances  I  have  inspected  the  pupils  when 
visiting  a  school  in  connection  with  an  outbreak  of  communicable  disease  in 
the  vicinity. 

Other  Departmental  Activities 

I  have  at  all  times  received  co-operation  and  courtesy  from  the  director  and 
employees  of  the  department's  branch  laboratory  at  Fort  William,  from  the 
provincial  public  health  nurses  on  duty  in  the  district  and  from  Mr.  W.  C. 
Millar,  District  Provincial  Sanitary  Inspector.  Mr.  Millar's  duties  are  important 
in  that  he  is  charged  with  the  enforcement  of  the  sanitary  regulations  applying 
to  territory  without  municipal  organization;    and  he  has  supervision  over  the 


1926 PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH 87 

sanitary  inspections  made  by  physicians  connected  with  industry  as  coming 
under  the  above-mentioned  regulations.  In  reading  over  annual  reports  for 
previous  years  from  other  districts  I  have  noticed  the  recommendation  that  the 
sanitary  inspectors  be  placed  under  the  d  rect  supervision  of  the  district  officer. 
This  recommendation  while  apparently  logical,  would,  if  acted  upon,  place  the 
district  officer  in  the  position  of  exercising  supervision  by  means  of  the  sanitary 
inspector  over  the  contracting  physicians  in  his  district  unless  n  the  meantime, 
the  sys  em  of  sanitary  contracts  were  discontinued.  To  my  mind  the  sanitary 
inspection  of  lumber  and  other  camps  in  territory  without  municipal  organization 
should  be  carried  on  directly  by  the  provincial  sanitary  inspectors  without  any 
system  of  sanitary  inspections  by  contracting  physicians.  I  believe  that  until 
some  radical  change  is  made  in  the  above  method  of  sanitary  supervision  over 
industry,  it  is  in  the  public  interest  for  the  district  provincial  sanitary  inspector 
and  the  district  officer  to  work  each  in  his  logical  field  with  each  official  restricted 
to  his  logical  field  so  as  to  avoid  the  evils  resulting  from  dual  control. 


DISTRICT  No.  8 
H.  W.  Johnston,  M.D. 

I  beg  to  submit  the  following  report  of  public  health  acti\ities  in  District 
No.  8  for  the  year  1925. 

As  in  previous  years  a  considerable  amount  of  time  has  been  devoted  to  the 
work  of  control  of  communicable  diseases  and  the  prevention  of  epidemics. 
The  district  has  been  fortunate  in  being  free  from  any  serious  outbreak  during 
the  whole  of  the  year.  Scarlet  fever  is  the  only  acute  communicable  disease 
which  has  been  at  all  prevalent.  These  cases  have  mostly  been  of  a  mild  type  and 
they  have  been  limited  to  a  few  children  in  scattered  localities.  These  improved 
conditions  may  be  attributed  to  the  increasing  co-operation  and  assistance  of 
the  attending  physicians  and  the  greater  interest  of  the  public  who  are  being 
reached  by  the  various  methods  of  public  health  education. 

Thirty-nine  cases  of  diphtheria  were  reported  in  the  distr  ct.  Two  deaths 
occurred  from  this  cause  in  outlying  places  where  medical  attention  was  not 
readily  available. 

Four  cases  of  anterior  poliomyelitis  were  investigated  and  found  to  have 
originated  in  the  State  of  Michigan. 

Three  cases  of  typhoid  fever  coming  from  lumber  camps  apparently  received 
their  infection  from  the  Province  of  Quebec  previous  to  their  employment  with 
the  lumber  companies. 

A  very  valuable  tuberculosis  clinic  was  conducted  by  officers  of  the  depart- 
ment in  Sault  Ste.  Marie  early  in  the  year.  The  welfare  organizations  of  the 
city  and  surrounding  district  co-operated  with  the  boards  of  health  in  locating 
contacts,  early  cases  and  cases  that  were  difficult  of  diagnosis.  The  clinic  was 
crowded  to  capacity  for  one  week.  In  addition  to  the  valuable  diagnostic  work 
the  clinic  was  found  to  be  very  valuable  from  an  educational  standpoint,  and 
the  value  of  early  diagnosis  was  made  very  apparent  to  those  attending  the 
clinic. 


88 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  14 

In  unorganized  territory  throughout  the  north  country  it  has  been  a  great 
benefit  in  the  control  of  tuberculosis  to  be  able  to  have  indigent  cases  receive 
early  hospital  treatment  at  government  expense. 

Tourist  Camp  Supervision 

During  the  summer  months  a  very  interesting  survey  was  made  of  tourist 
resorts  throughout  the  district.  Working  with  Mr.  Downey  of  the  Division  of 
Sanitary  Engineering,  detailed  reports  were  secured  in  some  seventy-five  localities 
requiring  some  two  hundred  investigations  of  tourist  hotels,  summer  boarding 
houses,  municipal  camp  sites,  road  booths,  and  refreshment  places.  It  was 
found  when  making  these  surveys  that  municipalities  and  proprietors  were 
prepared  to  care  for  the  increasingly  large  number  of  tourists  who  are  visiting 
New  Ontario  and  they  are  making  every  effort  to  provide  attractive  accommoda- 
tion for  these  summer  visitors.  Many  rural  hotels  and  boarding  houses  are 
installing  sanitary  conveniences.  Camps  and  amusement  places  in  unorganized 
territory  present  a  more  difficult  problem  in  regard  to  sanitary  supervision. 
The  highways  which  are  being  regularly  extended  farther  into  the  unsettled 
parts  are  becoming  very  attractive  to  motor  tourists.  In  order  to  keep  these 
places  in  a  satisfactory  sanitary  condition  it  will  require  that  more  attention  be 
given  to  regular  supervision.  Sanitary  inspection  should  be  frequent  and  notices 
should  be  posted  to  indicate  the  quality  of  water  supplies,  and  to  provide  notices 
regarding  sanitary  requirements. 

Public  Health  Nursing  and  Child  Hygiene 

During  the  year  the  nurses  of  the  department  have  continued  public  health 
demonstrations  through  the  district.  Amalgamation  of  the  health  work  of  the 
Department  of  Education  with  that  of  the  Department  of  Health  has  increased 
the  field  of  responsibility  and  there  follows  now  a  greater  need  for  an  increased 
staff  of  nurses  to  be  allotted  to  each  health  district.  The  public  health  nursing 
service  has  been  proven  to  be  exceedingly  valuable  in  this  district  and  the  work 
is  thoroughly  appreciated  both  in  the  rural  homes  and  in  the  smaller  towns  and 
communities.  It  has  not  been  possible  with  only  one  or  two  nurses  engaged  in 
working  over  such  a  large  field  to  give  a  service  which  is  at  all  adequate.  Many 
points  have  not  been  touched  more  frequently  than  every  three  or  four  years. 
If  the  staff  were  doubled  and  each  nurse  made  responsible  for  a  given  territory 
it  might  then  be  possible  to  cover  the  ground  at  least  every  second  year. 

In  the  City  of  Sault  Ste.  Marie  the  medical  society  has  been  co-operating 
with  the  school  board  and  the  board  of  health  in  medical  inspection  of  school 
children.  During  the  year  this  voluntary  service  was  given  to  cover  both  public 
and  separate  schools.  Valuable  records  were  thus  made  available  regarding 
the  prevalence  of  goitre,  defective  dental  conditions,  unhealthy  tonsils  and 
adenoids,  defective  sight,  hearing  and  nutrition.  The  active  support  of  the 
medical  profession  created  a  decided  interest  in  the  school  health  programme  and 
it  resulted  in  a  large  number  of  corrections  being  made. 

The  physicians  in  the  smaller  municipalities  and  rural  districts  have  given 
very  hearty  co-operation  to  the  department  in  assisting  with  medical  examin- 
ations in  schools  where  the  nurses  of  the  department  have  been  working.  When 
visits  are  made  to  the  schools  by  the  district  officer  of  health  opportunity  is 
also  taken  to  give  health  talks.  It  is  regretted  that  the  large  territory  to  be 
covered  does  not  permit  us  to  give  a  regular  health  service  to  all  of  the  schools

in   unorganized  sections  where  the  communities  are  more  directly  under  the 
administration  of  the  government  departments. 

During  two  weeks  in  September  health  demonstrations  were  arranged  in 
connection  with  school  fairs  in  Algoma  District.  The  school  fair  is  found  to 
be  an  excellent  opportunity  to  get  in  touch  with  a  large  number  of  children  from 
the  rural  sections.  Parents  and  pupils  are  quite  interested  in  our  public  health 
programme.  In  these  two  weeks  it  was  possible  to  meet  approximately  one 
thousand  children  and  their  parents.  It  was  very  satisfactory  to  find  the 
improved  health  conditions  which  resulted  from  a  visit  to  the  same  series  of 
fairs  two  years  previously.  Many  defects  had  been  corrected,  diet  and  health 
habits  improved  and  general  average  of  nutrition  showed  a  definite  gain. 

^  Social  Hygiexe 

Venereal  disease  clinics  conducted  by  Dr.  Graham  of  the  provincial 
laboratory  in  Sault  Ste.  Marie  continue  to  give  good  service  to  the  district. 
The  limited  capacity  of  the  clinics  curtails  the  amount  of  follow-up  work  which 
might  be  carried  on  if  more  time  and  space  were  available  for  the  present  staff. 

Milk  Supplies 

For  several  years  past  an  endeavour  has  been  made  to  have  conditions 
improved  in  regard  to  the  milk  supply  in  the  towns  and  municipalities  in  the 
district.  Even  though  we  were  advocating  an  increase  in  the  use  of  milk  it 
was  frequently  found  that  the  dairymen  threatened  to  discontinue  the  supply 
if  they  were  required  to  incur  extra  expense  in  im.provement  of  equipment  and 
methods.  Gradually  these  difificulties  are  being  overcome  and  many  of  the 
smaller  places  have  a  much  better  quality  than  previously.  It  is  a  matter  for 
regret  that  the  new  arrangements  of  the  federal  department  result  in  a  decreased 
service  for  tuberculin  testing  of  registered  herds  and  those,  herds  which  supply 
the  municipalities  which  undertake  the  proper  control  of  milk  supplies.  The 
long  season  of  winter  feeding  in  the  northern  parts  of  Ontario  adds  also  to  the 
difficulty  of  procuring  a  sufficient  supply  at  a  reasonable  cost.  During  the  year 
inspections  have  been  carried  on  at  Hornepayne,  Hearst,  Espanola,  Thessalon, 
Gore  Bay,  Bruce  Mines,  St.  Joseph's  Township  and  the  townships  surrounding 
Sault  Ste.  Marie. 

Industrial  Hygiexe 

Dr.  Riddell  and  Dr.  Brink  representing  the  Division  of  Industrial  Hygiene 
and  the  Division  of  Preventable  Diseases  made  two  visits  to  the  district  during 
the  year  1925  to  study  cases  of  chest  diseases,  presumably  due  to  occupation  in 
stone  quarries. 

Industrial  health  programmes  carried  on  by  the  Austin  &  Nicholson  Com- 
pany of  Chapleau,  and  the  Spanish  River  Pulp  &  Paper  Company  in  Sault  Ste. 
Marie  and  Espanola  have  been  showing  satisfactory  results.  The  programmes 
of  these  companies  have  been  gradually  improved  and  enlarged. 

Public  Health  Education 

Frequent  opportunities  have  been  accepted  for  carrying  on  public  health 
education  in  the  district.     The  school  fairs  referred  to  above  are  considered 


90 REPORT  OF  PROVINCIAL  BOARD  OF  HEALTH         No.  14 

one  of  our  most  valuable  methods.  The  value  of  the  Schick  and  Dick  tests  in 
preventive  medicine  have  been  continually  brought  to  the  attention  of  the 
physicians  and  school  boards.  Several  clinics  were  conducted  for  the  purpose 
of  introducing  and  demonstrating  these  methods. 

Addresses  on  appropriate  health  topics  have  been  prepared  for  various 
organizations  including  the  Rotary  Club,  District  Medical  Society,  district  and 
branch  meetings  of  the  Women's  Institute,  Y.M.C.A.  and  church  groups, 
"New  Canadian"  clubs,  school  boards  and  municipal  councils.  In  public 
health  talks  special  stress  has  been  placed  on  the  value  of  periodic  medical 
examinations  as  a  means  of  health  promotion. 

Successful  health  demonstrations  were  arranged  for  agricultural  society 
fairs  at  Bruce  Mines  and  Sault  Ste.  Marie.

INTRODUCTION 


The  Fifty-eighth  Annual  Report  of  the  Ontario  Hospitals  for  the  Insane, 
Feeble-minded  and  Epileptics  deals  with  the  period  from  November  1st,  1924, 
to  October  31st,  1925.  It  is  replete  with  statistical  information,  showing  the 
changes  that  have  taken  place  in  one  year  in  an  attempt  to  provide  accommo- 
dation for  the  insane  population  of  the  Province. 

In  this  respect  the  following  table  will  supply  a  brief  synopsis  not  only  of 
the  change  from  one  year  to  another,  but  of  the  actual  conditions  which  exist 
in  the  country. 

Table  Showing  a  Comparison  of  the  Hospital  Population  in  the 

Years  1924  and  1925 

1924  1925 

In  residence  at  beginning  of  year 8,771  9,144 

Admissions  during  year 2,308  2,299 

Discharges  during  year 1,007  1,030 

Deaths  during  year 606  579 

Deported 62  83 

Eloped 64  31 

In  residence  at  end  of  year 9,144  9,524 

Applications  on  file 1,077  683 

Daily  average  population 8,710  9,203 


Total  number  treated  in  year 11,077  11,443 

From  a  perusal  of  these  figures  it  will  be  noted  that  there  was  an  increase 
in  the  number  treated  in  the  hospitals  of  366  over  1924,  that  the  increase  in  the 
daily  average  population  was  493  and  that  at  the  end  of  1925  there  was  an 
increase  of  380.  Where  do  the  insane  come  from?  The  answer  is  found  in 
Table  No.  3.  Canada  produced  67  per  cent.,  England  14  per  cent.,  Scotland 
4  per  cent.,  Ireland  3  per  cent.,  Russia  IY2  per  cent.,  the  United  States  134 
per  cent. 

While  we  are  taking  stock  of  our  national  resources  it  is  a  sound  business 
policy  to  include  liabilities,  and  one  form  of  a  national  liability  is  that  condition 
of  mind  known  as  insanity  which  removes  its  victims  from  the  column  of 
assets  and  by  placing  them  in  a  public  institution  at  the  expense  of  the  country, 
makes  them  in  some  degree  a  liability. 

The  reports  which  have  been  received  from  the  various  institutions  and 
which  will  be  found"  herein  will  give  some  idea  as  to  the  progress  which  has 
been  made  during  the  past  year  in  connection  with  the  operation  of  the  mental 
hospitals  of  the  Province.  During  the  war  years  the  hospital  at  Whitby  and 
also  the  Cobourg  Hospital  were  used  for  war  purposes.  The  granting  of  the 
use  of  these  properties  to  the  military  authorities  for  use  as  military  hospitals 
made  necessary  the  over-crowding  of  the  remaining  institutions.  It  was  also 
difficult  during  the  war  period  to  keep  pace  with  the  repair  and  maintenance 


vi        REPORT  OF  INSPECTOR  OF  HOSPITALS  FOR  IXSAXE     No.  15 

programme  of  the  various  hospitals  and  during  the  recent  years  a  vigourous 
effort  has  been  made  by  the  Department  to  overtake  this  programme.  Without 
going  into  detail  it  is  sufficient  to  state  that  substantial  progress  has  been  made 
in  the  work  of  efTecting  a  general  betterment  as  to  facilities  for  housing  the 
patients.  In  addition,  numerous  purchases  of  new  equipment  have  been 
made. 

As  to  the  question  of  the  cure  and  treatment  of  mental  diseases  it  should 
be  noted  that  the  percentage  of  cures  w^hich  is  being  effected  in  the  institutions 
of  the  Province  of  Ontario  compares  very  favourably  with  the  results  which  are 
being  obtained  elsewhere. 

Unfortunately,  however,  mental  disease  appears  to  be  on  the  increase 
rather  than  otherwise.  The  problem  of  the  physicians  who  are  connected 
with  the  staffs  undoubtedly  is  aggravated  b^^  reason  of  the  fact  that  patients 
are  usually  not  brought  under  their  care  during  the  earlier  stages  of  mental 
disease.  The  opening  of  the  Psychiatric  Hospital  in  the  City  of  Toronto  is, 
it  is  believed,  a  substantial  step  in  the  right  direction  and  it  is  sincerely  hoped 
that  the  experience  to  be  gained  in  connection  with  the  operation  of  this 
institution  will  finally  lead  to  the  establishment  of  similar  institutions  in  the 
larger  centres  of  population  elsewhere  throughout  the  Province.

THE  ONTARIO  HOSPITAL,  BROCKVILLE 

December  24th,  1925. 
Deputy  Provincial  Secretary, 

Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto,  Ont. 

Dear  Sir: — 

I  beg  to  submit  the  Annual  Report  of  Brockville  Hospital  for  the  year 
ending  October  31,  1925.  In  previous  years  little  has  been  said  of  the  operations 
of  this  hospital,  and  it  may  be  of  interest  now  to  say  that  for  some  years  past 
we  have  endeavoured  to  make  the  whole  institution  plant  more  effective.  This 
includes  not  only  the  methods  of  treatment  but  more  scientific  methods  in 
farming  operations  which  have  already  proven  to  be  of  value  to  the  province 
and  of  benefit  to  the  patients.  Roads  have  been  constructed,  fences  erected,  the 
entrance  has  been  widened  and  equipped  with  lights  which  makes  it  much  more 
attractive,  the  skating  rink  has  been  rebuilt,  the  grounds  have  been  improved, 
repairs  and  renewals  have  been  made  in  the  barns  and  outbuildings,  the  ice-house 
has  been  rebuilt  and  a  reception  hospital  has  been  added. 

In  the  interior  of  the  buildings  much  necessary  and  useful  work  has  been 
done  to  improve  the  appearance  of  the  wards  which  have  been  all  repainted. 

The  system  of  hospital  treatment  includes  the  use  of  hydro-therapy,  electro- 
therapy and  vocational-therapy — especially  the  establishment  of  a  mattress 
factory.  We  have  also  added  a  dental  clinic  and  many  major  and  minor  oper- 
ations have  been  performed  as  well  as  hundreds  of  Wassermann  tests. 

Our  programme  includes  not  only  useful  labour  on  the  land  and  elsewhere, 
but  is  varied  by  a  variety  of  amusements  such  as  tennis,  basketball,  football,  golf, 
lawn  bowling,  croquet,  skating,  curling,  concerts,  picture  shows  and  dancing. 
We  are  fortunate  in  being  so  placed  as  to  afford  this  variety,  not  only  for  our 
patients  but  for  our  staff  of  employees,  to  whom  I  am  indebted  for  the  utmost 
loyalty  and  co-operation.  To  you  personally  I  wish  to  extend  my  full  confidence 
and  thanks  for  the  encouragement  and  kindness  you  have  shown  to  me  in  the 
management  of  this  hospital. 

Sincerely, 

P.  MacNaughton, 

Superintendent. 


THE  ONTARIO  HOSPITAL,  COBOURG 

November  2nd,  1925. 
Deputy  Provincial  Secretary, 

Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto,  Ont. 

Sir:— 

In  accordance  with  statutory  requirements,  I  have  the  honour  to  submit 
annual  statistical  report  of  the  Ontario  Hospital,  Cobourg,  for  the  year  ending 
October  31st,  1925. 

I  have  the  honour  to  remain. 

Your  obedient  servant, 

W.  T.  Wilson, 

Superintendent.

REPORT  OF  INSPECTOR  OF  No.  15 


THE  ONTARIO  HOSPITAL,  HAMILTON 

Deputy  Provincial  Secretary, 

Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto,  Ont. 

Sir: — 

I  have  pleasure,  in  accordance  with  the  statutory  requirements,  in  sub- 
mitting the  fiftieth  Annual  Report  of  this  hospital,  being  for  the  financial  year 
ending  October  31st,  1925. 

Our  admissions  were  slightly  less  than  during  the  previous  year,  but  owing 
to  the  type  of  illness  from  which  the  patients  sufTered,  our  discharges  have  also 
been  less,  and  the  total  population  at  the  end  of  the  term  showed  an  increase  of 
fifty. 

Careful  inspection  of  the  diagnoses  of  those  admitted  shows  that  the  one 
hundred  and  seven  suffering  from  dementia  praecox  constituted  the  largest 
group  and  those  of  the  involutional  type,  including  melancholia,  pre-senile  and 
senile  cases,  numbered  ninety-two,  while  the  manic  depressive  group  consisted 
of  twenty-seven,  and  that  of  general  paresis  fifteen. 

The  continued  yearly  increase  in  each  of  our  provincial  hospitals,  which  are 
at  present  all  overcrowded,  makes  more  evident  the  absolute  need  of  the  pro- 
viding of  additional  accommodation  in  the  way  of  new  buildings,  fully  equipped 
up  to  modern  ideas,  at  as  early  a  date  as  possible,  and  these,  we  believe,  would 
serve  the  best  interests  if  erected  as  additions  to  some  of  our  present  plants, 
rather  than  the  creation  of  new  centres. 

In  connection  with  this  matter,  I  would  like  to  emphasize  my  remarks  in 
the  report  of  1923-24,  regarding  the  providing  of  a  separate  residential  building 
for  male  employees  here,  quarters  for  both  single  and  married  men,  being  fur- 
nished as  we  find  is  done  by  many  of  the  larger  American  mental  hospitals. 
These  men  should  certainly  be  taken  off  the  wards  if  only  from  a  health  point  of 
view,  and  by  doing  this  we  would  have  available  accommodation  for  one  hundred 
and  twenty  patients. 

The  report  of  Dr.  W.  R.  Jafi^ray,  our  pathologist,  gives  evidence  of  much 
intensive  treatment  as  well  as  very  full  preliminary  examination  of  our  patients^ 
and  we  are  hoping  a  year  hence  to  have  figures  of  much  interest  regarding  the 
malarial  treatment  of  paresis  during  an  eighteen  months'  term,  that  is,  a  suffi- 
ciently long  period  to  give  a  fair  test  and  get  reliable  data. 

The  report  of  Dr.  Wells,  our  dentist,  shows  close  application  to  work  when 
here,  much  more  being  done  than  during  the  previous  twelve  months;  yet,  to 
be  of  the  greatest  benefit  to  the  patients,  weekly,  in  place  of  monthly,  visits 
should  be  made. 

Work  Done 

The  putting  in  of  a  quarry  tile  floor  in  the  main  corridor  of  the  ofifice  section 
of  the  main  building,  as  also  in  the  employees'  landing  and  dining  room,  has 
added  much  to  the  appearance  and  comfort,  also  to  the  sanitary  condition 
thereof. 

A  commencement  has  been  made  in  getting  the  steel  and  stone  for  the 
renewal  of  the  superstructure  of  the  porte-cochere  at  the  main  building,  and  it 
is  hoped  to  proceed  with  the  erection  early  in  the  spring. 

In  the  refitting  of  the  dental  room  and  arrangement  for  X-ray  quarters, 
good  progress  is  being  made. 


1926 HOSPITALS  FOR  THE  INSANE 5 

Requirements 

In  this  connection  I  would,  after  prolonged  and  frequent  interviews  with 
waterworks  engineers  and  others,  and  the  getting  of  estimates  of  costs,  urge  the 
replacement  of  the  175,000  gallons  per  day,  electrically-driven  pump,  which  was 
installed  in  1910  and  is  now  absolutely  inadequate  to  supply  our  daily  needs  in 
the  event  of  a  breakdow^n  in  the  300,000  gallons  per  day  pump  now  in  constant 
use  with  one  of  the  most  modern  construction  capable  of  supplying  500,000 
gallons  per  day. 

Interest  in  the  general  health-giving  sports,  such  as  cricket,  tennis,  lawn 
bowling,  football,  skating,  etc.,  has  kept  up.  Our  cricket  team  succeeded  in 
heading  our  district,  which  is  composed  of  eight  clubs,  and  captured  the  two 
leading  trophies  and  tied  for  the  English-Robinson  challenge  cup,  which  was 
put  up  in  1924  for  competition  between  the  London  Hospital  and  our  own. 

I  append  herewith  reports  of  Dr.  W.  R.  Jaffray,  the  pathologist,  and  Dr. 
Wells,  dentist. 

Thanking  you  for  your  many  courtesies  and  frequently  sought  advice,  I  am, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

W.  M.  English, 

Superintendent. 


Pathological  Report 

Nov.  1,  1924,  to  Oct.  31,  1925 
Dr.  W.  M.  English, 

Superintendent,  Ontario  Hospital,  Hamilton,  Ont. 

Sir: 

I  beg  herewith  to  submit  a  summary  of  the  work  done  in  my  department 
during  the  year  noted  above. 

Cases  showing  positive  Wassermann  reaction  in  our  routine  examination  were 
6.69  per  cent,  of  our  total  admissions,  comparing  with  7.67  per  cent,  in  1924, 
5.95  per  cent,  in  1923,  6.35  per  cent,  in  1922,  8.17  per  cent,  in  1921  and  7.99  per 
cent,  in  1920,  etc. 

Only  ten  autopsies  were  done  this  year,  being  half  as  many  as  usual. 

All  cases  showing  positive  Wassermanns  were  given  antisyphilitic  treatment 
and  the  paretics  were  treated  with  arsphenamine,  mercury,  tryparsamide  and 
spinal  drainage.  Six  cases  were  treated  with  malarial  innoculation.  In  all  167 
doses  of  arsphenamine  were  given  and  ten  spinal  drainage  treatments;  104  doses 
of  tryparsamide  were  administered. 

An  investigation  with  the  collodial  benzoin  spinal  fluid  test  was  carried  out 
and  will  be  published  in  the  C.M.A.  Journal  shortly. 

The  following  table  gives  a  classification  of  our  positive  cases:

REPORT  OF  INSPECTOR  OF 


Xo.  15 


In  this  analysis  it  is  seen  that  syphiHs  has  an  apparent  bearing  in  the  psy- 
chosis in  5.34  per  cent,  only,  or  80  per  cent,  of  our  positive  cases,  while  the  clinical 
findings  did  not  indicate  that  the  remaining  1.35  per  cent,  were  in  any  way  due 
to  syphilitic  infection. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

\V.  R.  Jaffrey, 

Pathologist.

THE  ONTARIO  HOSPITAL.  PEXETAXGITSHEXE 


November  17th,  1925. 
Deputy  Provincial  Secretary, 

Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto,  Ont. 
Sir: — 

I  beg  herewith  to  submit  the  Annual  Report  of  the  Ontario  Hospital,  Pene- 
tanguishene,  for  the  year  ending  October  31st,  1925. 

During  the  year  six  men  and  sixteen  women  were  admitted;  of  these,  four 
men  and  fifteen  women  were  transfers  from  Mimico  and  Toronto,  respectivelv- 

Two  men  were  discharged  and  five  men  and  five  women  died,  leaving  m 
residence  at  the  end  of  the  year  one  hundred  and  sixty-four  men  and  two  hundred 
and  three  women,  a  total  of  three  hundred  and  sixty-seven  (367). 

A  very  large  amount  of  work  has  been  done  in  and  about  the  \'arious  build- 
ings. The  overhauling  of  the  heating  system  in  the  wards  of  the  main  building 
was  completed,  with  the  result  that  the  wards  are  now  warm  and  comfortable 
even  in  the  most  severe  winter  weather. 


1926 HOSPITALS  FOR  THE  INSANE 7 

In  the  employees'  cottages  much  needed  painting  and  repairing  was  done, 
also  a  large  amount  of  painting  throughout  the  various  buildings  generally. 

All  the  boilers  in  the  engine  room  were  relined  with  firebrick,  a  hot-water 
circulating  system  installed,  and  a  new  cement  roof  built  over  the  room  containing 
the  fire  pumps  and  electrical  equipment. 

At  the  present  time  extensive  repairs  and  alterations  are  under  way  in 
cottage  B.  New  lavatories,  washrooms  and  shower  baths  are  being  installed, 
new  fireproof  stairways  built,  new  hardwood  floors  laid  in  sitting  room  and 
dormitories,  and  the  heating  system  overhauled.  A  new  and  larger  ice-house 
has  also  been  built. 

Changes  in  staff:  Dr.  Kilgour,  who  had  been  appointed  assistant  physician 
in  September,  1924,  was  transferred  to  Kingston  in  February,  1925,  and  his  place 
filled  by  the  appointment  of  Dr.  W.  T.  Samis,  who  in  June  resigned  to  enter 
private  practice.  Dr.  James  and  Montgomery  taking  his  place.  At  the  end  of 
the  year.  Dr.  Montgomery  also  resigned  to  enter  private  practice,  and  Dr.  E.  A. 
James  has  been  appointed  to  fill  the  vacancy. 

The  carpenter,  Mr.  Wm.  Rowley,  resigned  in  August,  and  Mr.  Walter  Allen 
appointed  to  the  position.  Mr.  Edward  Earner,  chief  attendant,  resigned  at 
the  end  of  the  year  owing  to  ill-health. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be,  sir.

Of  the  patients  admitted,  sixty-three  are  diagnosed  as  suffering  from  senile 
dementia.  Some  of  these  are  acutely  confused  and  need  a  great  deal  of  attention, 
but  the  great  majority  are  more  or  less  helpless  and  childish  and  require  only 
waiting  upon  and  some  custodial  care  to  prevent  them  from  wandering  away  or 
accidentally  injuring  themselves.  There  are  at  present  many  such  in  tesidence 
here.  They  are  in  no  sense  dangerous  and,  although  requiring  rather  more  care 
than  could  be  given  them  in  Houses  of  Industry,  there  is  no  call  for  the  attention 
of  psychiatrists  and  specially  trained  nurses,  nor  is  there  any  occasion  for  their 
being  patients  in  hospitals  expensively  built  and  equipped  for  the  treatment  of 
the  insane.  Comfortable,  sanitary  housing  with  kindly  oversight  and  care 
would  meet  all  their  requirements.

8 REPORT  OF  INSPECTOR  OF No.  15 

In  1924,  the  Hon.  Dr.  Godfrey,  Minister  of  Health,  obtained  a  quantity  of 
sulfoxyl  salvarsan,  which  he  asked  be  given  a  trial  in  the  treatment  of  those 
suffering  from  diseases  of  specific  origin.  Between  sixty  and  seventy  patients 
with  general  paresis  have  been  given  a  thorough  course  with  this  preparation. 
This  treatment  has  resulted  in  a  very  definite  slowing  up  of  the  disease  and  a 
substantial  increase  in  the  number  of  patients  showing  remissions. 

During  the  year  1921 15  patients  died  from  general  paresis

"         "       "     1925..  9        "  «       «  «  « 

The  marked  diminution  in  the  death  rate  during  1925  can  fairly  be  attributed 
to  the  effects  of  the  treatment  and  give  a  general  indication  of  the  extent  to  which 
the  course  of  the  disease  has  been  retarded.  It  may  be  added  that  cases  of 
paresis  admitted  to  our  hospitals  are  usually  in  the  advanced  stage  and  the  best 
results  cannot  be  looked  for  amongst  them.  It  is  impossible  to  give  here  a 
detailed  statement  of  the  results. 

A  large  number  of  candidates  have  applied  for  admission  to  the  Training 
School  for  Nurses.  With  many  to  select  from  it  has  been  possible  to  build  up  a 
personnel,  especially  qualified  physically  and  temperamentally  for  the  nursing 
of  nervous  patients.  In  addition  to  the  very  thorough  training  given  here,  all 
nurses  take  a  post-graduate  course  in  Toronto  or  New  York.  Practically  every 
member  of  last  year's  class  now  holds  a  responsible  hospital  position.  Our  regret 
is  that  most  of  them  are  in  the  United  States  and  that  their  services  are  thus  lost 
to  the  sick  of  Ontario. 

During  the  year  much  has  been  done  to  improve  the  hospital  wards.  One 
hundred  of  the  old  iron  sash  windows  have  been  replaced  by  the  casement  type, 
which  open  wide  and  provide  improved  lighting  and  ample  ventilation  at  all 
times  of  the  year.  Three  verandahs  of  three  storeys  each  have  been  renovated, 
new  floors  of  mastic  put  in  and  new  casement  windows  installed,  making  these 
sunrooms  beautifully  bright  and  modern.  A  number  of  dormitories  have  been 
refloored  with  birch.  In  addition  to  these  renovations,  numerous  other  improve- 
ments and  repairs  have  been  made. 

No  transfer  of  patients  from  this  hospital  has  taken  place  since  last  Feb- 
ruary. Such  transfers  in  the  past  have  made  it  possible  to  provide  for  the  yearly 
admission  of  about  six  hundred  patients.  Now  that  all  transfers  are  discon- 
tinued, it  is  obviously  impossible  with  only  seven  hundred  and  fifty  beds  to  admit 
six  hundred  new  mental  cases  each  year.  The  call  for  more  space  is  urgent. 
This  area  has  a  dense  and  growing  population  and  the  number  presenting  them- 
selves for  treatment  will  show  a  yearly  increase.  Provision  for  their  accom- 
modation is  a  necessity. 

At  present  over  thirty  nurses  are  living  in  the  main  building  where  their 
quarters  are  unsuitable  and  their  rest  is  greatly  disturbed.  An  addition  to  the 
Nurses'  Home  is  much  needed  so  that  the  nurses  can  obtain  their  proper  rest 
while  off  duty. 

Several  changes  in  the  medical  staff  have  occurred  during  the  past  year. 
Dr.  Harvey  Clare,  medical  superintendent,  resigned  on  February  1st  and  became 
medical  superintendent  of  the  Homewood  Sanitarium  at  Guelph.  Dr.  Clare 
had  for  many  years  been  connected  with  the  Ontario  Hospitals.  He  bl-ought  to 
his  work  a  fine  enthusiasm  tempered  by  wide  experience  and  sound  judgment. 
The  whole  medical  service,  as  well  as  this  hospital,  sustained  a  real  loss  in  his 


1926 HOSPITALS  FOR  THE  INSANE 9 

resignation.  On  June  1st  the  undersigned,  formerly  assistant  superintendent, 
was  appointed  superintendent,  and  Dr.  D.  R.  Fletcher  as  assistant  superin- 
tendent. On  June  25th  and  July  1st,  respectively,  Dr.  J.  N.  Senn  and  Dr.  D.  J. 
Mcintosh  were  appointed  as  assistant  physicians.  On  October  1st,  Dr.  Senn 
was  transferred  to  the  Ontario  Hospital  at  Hamilton.  X^e  staff  vacancy  thus 
created  still  exists.     Dr.  S.  Appel  has  been  attached  for  duty  temporarily. 

I  take  this  opportunity  of  expressing  my  appreciation  of  the  loyal  support 
which  has  been  given  me  by  the  staff  in  all  departments,  and  to  especially  men- 
tion Dr.  Fletcher,  whose  zeal  made  it  possible  to  carry  on  the  medical  work 
during  the  five  months  when  he  was  the  only  medical  assistant. 

I  also  appreciate  and  gratefully  acknowledge  the  assistance  and  support 
given  at  all  times  by  you  and  the  Department. 

I  have  the  honour  to  remain. 

Your  obedient  servant, 

F.  S.  Vrooman, 

Superintendent. 


THE  ONTARIO  HOSPITAL,  MIMICO 

Deputy  Provincial  Secretary, 

Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto,  Ontario. 

Sir: — 

In  accordance  with  the  requirements  of  the  statute,  I  have  the  honour  to 
submit  the  thirty-first  Annual  Report  of  the  Ontario  Hospital  at  Mimico  for  the 
year  ending  October  31st,  1925. 

The  capacity  of  the  hospital  remains  unchanged,  with  accommodation  for 
300  of  each  sex,  but  it  is  not  an  infrequent  occurrence  to  find  our  space  much  over- 
taxed. During  the  year  we  admitted  116  patients.  The  number  in  residence 
at  the  end  of  the  year  was  625,  and  the  total  number  treated  was  717.  It  is 
noteworthy  that  there  is  little  difference  in  the  number  of  each  sex  admitted  from 
year  to  year  and  that  the  causes  of  insanity  affect  all  classes. 

Some  of  the  buildings  are  beginning  to  show  the  effects  of  wear  as  they  were 
erected  about  thirty-eight  years  ago,  and  extensive  repairs  were  made  to  these 
buildings  and  to  the  ornamental  grounds. 

There  have  been  no  changes  in  the  administrative  staff  during  the  past  year, 
and  the  number  of  employees  who  left  the  service,  seventy  in  all,  does  not  vary 
much  from  the  general  average. 

It  is  a  matter  of  much  satisfaction  to  be  able  to  report  that  insubordination 
among  officers  and  cruelty  have  been  of  very  rare  occurrence.  Owing  to  the 
number  of  persons  unemployed  it  has  been  possible  to  make  a  better  selection  of 
employees  for  the  particular  kind  of  work  that  is  required  in  a  hospital  of  this 
kind. 

Gratefully  acknowledging  your  patient  consideration  and  helpful  counsel 
at  all  times  during  the  year. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be  sir. 

Your  obedient  servant, 

N.  H.  Beemer, 

Superintendent.

ONTARIO  HOSPITAL,  ORILLIA 

November  1st,  1925. 
Deputy  Provincial  Secretary,

Sir: — 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  herewith  the  annual  report  of  the  Ontario 
Hospital,  Orillia,  for  the  year  ended  October  31st,  1925. 

The  summary  of  the  movement  of  our  population  during  the  year  is  as 
follows: —

Remaining  in  Hospital,  October  31,  1925.  .  661  638        1,299 

The  total  admissions  show  an  increase  of  eleven  over  the  year  1924.  The 
discharges  were  34,  or  five  less  than  the  preceding  year,  and  the  deaths,  64,  show 
an  increase  of  13.  Elopements  were  four  less  and  the  transfers  and  deportations 
for  the  past  year  were  4  and  1  compared  to  none, for  1924. 

The  ages  of  the  admissions  are  set  down  as  follows: — 24  under  8,  46  between 
8  and  12,  57  between  12  and  20,  12  between  20  and  30,  and  14  over  30  years. 

Of  the  153  admissions,  defectiveness  in  78  cases  is  set  down  to  heredity  in 
paternal,  maternal  and  collateral  branches.  In  56  cases  no  heredity  tendency 
is  disclosed,  and  in  19  information  on  this  point  was  not  available. 


1926 HOSPITALS  FOR  THE  INSANE 11 

A  gratifying  feature  of  the  statistics  herewith  given  is  the  large  proportion 
of  high  and  middle  grades.  Of  the  absolutely  low  grades  there  were  28  admis- 
sions and  those  in  the  higher  classes  numbered  122.  The  other  three  were  cases 
of  juvenile  insanity. 

There  have  been  quite  a  number  of  changes  in  our  staff  during  the  year  that 
has  gone.  Dr.  Clifford  H.  \A'atson,  assistant  physician,  resigned  in  March  and 
the  vacancy  was  filled  by  Dr.  Foster  C.  Hamilton,  of  Kingston.  From  the 
teaching  staff  there  were  five  resignations: — Miss  Edith  Armstrong,  principal, 
Miss  Ruth  Patterson,  Miss  Kathleen  Jackson,  Miss  Lucille  Sarjeant,  and  Miss 
Kate  Hunter,  musical  directress.  These  places  were  filled  by  the  promotion  of 
Miss  Marion  Harvie  to  the  principalship  and  the  engagement  of  Miss  Cecile 
Jupp  as  musical  directress,  and  Miss  Marjory  Doolittle,  Miss  Leta  Walker,  Miss 
Gladys  Hatley  and  Miss  Dorothy  Hale  as  teachers. 

In  our  training  school  one  very  gratifying  feature  is  the  development  of  the 
sense  training  department  and  the  very  excellent  work  done  in  the  manual 
training  division.  In  order  to  make  the  very  best  use  of  our  present  school 
equipment  and  staff",  we  have  adopted  the  platoon  system.  For  one  hour  each 
day  the  academic  and  industrial  classes  change  rooms.  The  industrial  classes 
thus  not  only  receive  a  \"ery  general  education  along  lines  suited  to  their  mental 
capacity  but  they  get  a  much  needed  variation  in  their  work.  The  academic 
classes  are  enabled  to  have  great  variety  in  handwork  with  no  increase  of  equip- 
ment. The  children  enjoy  the  changes  and  we  feel  the  system  has  been  decidedly 
beneficial  to  them  and  promotive  of  a  more  sustained  interest  in  the  day's 
routine. 

Our  industrial  departments,  aside  from  the  training  school,  witnessed  ver>- 
marked  expansion  during  the  year.  We  have  now  eighteen  boys  employed  in 
our  tailor  shop  and  sixteen  in  our  shoemaking  department.  Excellent  work  is 
being  done  in  these  departments.  Some  of  our  boys  have  acquired  much  expert- 
ness  in  machine  work  in  a  very  short  time.  We  hope  early  in  the  new  year  we 
shall  be  able  to  turn  out  from  twenty-five  to  fifty  pairs  of  shoes  a  day.  We  are 
completing  arrangements  to  manufacture  all  grades  from  men's  heaxy  work  boots 
to  the  finer  grades  of  house  and  walking  shoes  for  the  girls  and  women.  In  the 
tailor  shop  the  output  has  increased  very  satisfactory.  W^e  have  filled  many 
large  orders  for  other  institutions  of  uniforms,  shirts,  smocks,  caps,  etc.  The 
tweeds  are  all  made  in  the  Reformatory  at  Guelph  and  the  manufacturing  is 
carried  on  here.  We  are  hopeful  that  early  in  the  new  year  we  shall  have  a  new 
industrial  centre  completed,  which  will  afford  us  better  lighted,  more  sanitary 
and  more  roomy  workshops  than  we  have  at  present.  All  our  operations  will 
then  be  under  one  roof  and  supervision  and  direction  will  consequently  be  more 
easy  and  effective. 

Our  new  cottage  is  nearing  completion.  It  will  have  accommodation  for 
200  patients  and  will  make  a  most  comfortable  and  attractive  home  for  our 
epileptic  and  physically  infirm.  The  facilities  for  classification  in  the  new 
building  are  very  good.  In  the  style  of  its  construction  and  the  arrangement  of 
its  interior  the  building  is  unique.  It  is  so  laid  out  on  southerly  and  easterly 
exposures  that  sunlight  permeates  every  room  in  the  building  for  some  hours 
each  day.  Another  feature  of  this  construction  is  its  complete  insulation.  The 
walls  and  roof  carry  from  four  to  eight  inches  of  insulex  between  the  plaster  and 
the  brick  or  roofing.  From  our  experience  so  far  we  believe  that  this  type  of 
construction  will  conduce  to  economic  heating  in  the  winter  and  insure  com- 
fortable li\-ing  conditions  during  the  heat  of  the  summer. 


12 REPORT  OF  INSPECTOR  OF No.  15 

The  outside  departments  of  the  institution  have  had  a  successful  year.  Our 
crop  of  potatoes  was  disappointing,  but  of  all  other  lines  of  vegetables  we  have 
an  overabundance. 

I  am  appending  herewith  memorandum  of  the  Medical  Director  dealing 
with  some  features  of  the  work  of  the  medical  staff,  particularly  the  outbreaks 
of  contagious  diseases. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be,  sir. 

Your  obedient  servant, 

J.  P.  Downey, 

Superintendent. 

Memorandum  re  Work  of  Medical  Staff  for  the  Year  1925 

During  the  year  we  were  visited  by  several  epidemics.  Scarlet  fever  early 
made  its  appearance  and  threatened  to  become  widespread.  An  emergency  call 
was  made  on  the  Connaught  laboratory,  where  they  were  at  the  time  inves- 
tigating the  Dick  test  and  scarlet  fever  antitoxin,  and  a  splendid  response  came 
at  once  in  men  and  material.  One  thousand  one  hundred  and  eighty  tests  were 
made  with  a  finding  of  two  hundred  and  seventy-seven  positive  reactions  to 
which  the  experimental  immunization  was  applied.  The  subsequent  observa- 
tion of  this  work  proved  a  factor  in  the  standardization  of  the  protective  dose  of 
scarlet-fever  antitoxin,  a  matter  of  inestimable  public  importance.  Our 
epidemic  was  cut  short  with  twenty-eight  cases  in  all,  five  of  which  occurred 
among  the  employees.  As  a  number  of  those  who  tested  negatively  and  were, 
therefore,  not  immunized  developed  scarlet  fever  later,  it  would  be  a  fair  inference 
that  in  order  to  control  a  situation,  it  would  be  good  practice  to  immunize  an 
entire  group  rather  than  to  depend  upon  the  elimination  of  those  who  might 
give  a  negative  reaction  to  a  preliminary  test. 

There  were  eleven  cases  of  typhoid  fever.  Frequent  examinations  of  our 
water  supply  and  other  search  failed  to  determine  the  source  of  infection.  A 
general  application  of  typhoid  vaccine  was  resorted  to  and  followed  by  a  dis- 
appearance of  the  disease. 

Of  measles,  a  brief  epidemic  of  only  twenty  cases  occurred.  This  was, 
nevertheless,  attended  by  all  the  usual  troubles  of  isolation.  That  this  epidemic 
was  reduced  to  so  few  cases  is  probably  due  largely  to  the  fact  that  we  have,  in 
recent  years,  had  a  number  of  recurrences  of  measles  running  from  about  one 
hundred  to  two  hundred  and  forty  cases.  Though  occasionally  measles  will 
recur  in  the  same  patient  a  second  and  even  a  third  time,  our  population  is  prob- 
ably now  largely  immune  as  a  result  of  previous  attack. 

We  have  had  an  unusual  experience  with  diphtheria.  There  were  sixty-two 
cases.  This,  at  first,  seems  disappointing  as  we  had  thought  our  population  well 
protected  as  a  result  of  the  Shick  test  and  immunization  by  toxin-antitoxin.  Six 
of  these  cases  were  among  employees  who,  of  course,  have  outside  communica- 
tion, and  three  were  in  children  so  recently  admitted  that  they  evidently  had 
previous  exposure.  Four  cases  only  occurred  on  the  boys'  wards  but  there  were 
forty-nine  cases  among  the  girls.  The  outstanding  feature  of  these  cases  was 
the  absence  of  all  the  usual  clinical  features,  or  the  marked  modification  of  these, 
in  nearly  all  of  them.  There  was  commonly  no  appearance  of  membrane  and 
but  slight  sore  throat.     They  would  certainly  have  escaped  diagnosis,  in  many 


1926 HOSPITALS  FOR  THE  INSANE 13 

cases,  but  for  the  routine  of  taking  swabs  in  all  such  conditions.  We  cannot 
but  attribute  the  modified  form  in  which  this  disease  presented  itself,  to  the  fact 
that  most  of  these  patients  have  had  antitoxin  at  some  time. 

It  is  a  matter  of  observation,  howe^^er,  that  five  of  them  had  given  Shick 
positive  tests  and  had  been  given  immunizing  doses  of  toxin-antitoxin,  and  that 
eighteen  of  them  had  previously  tested  Shick  negative,  so  that  the  inference 
is,  as  in  the  case  of  scarlet  fever,  that  it  might  be  good  practice,  in  any  emergency, 
to  do  a  general  immunization  of  an  entire  group  instead  of  giving  the  protective 
serum  to  those  who  only  showed  positive  Shick  reaction. 

Besides  an  occasional  appendix  case  and  hernia  taken  care  of  by  our  simple 
operating-room  facilities,  and  several  fractures,  there  were  sixty-eight  operations 
for  removal  of  tonsils  in  cases  where  this  seemed  necessary.  The  results  of  these 
cases  have  been  uniformly  gratifying.  In  a  good  many  instances  the  removal 
of  the  tonsils  has  been  followed  by  a  very  noticeable  improvement  in  every  way.

The  above  figures  call  for  Httle  comment  that  would  not  be  a  repetition  of 
statements  made  in  previous  reports.  The  number  of  failures,  fourteen  per  cent., 
is  slighth-  below  the  a\erage,  though  some  of  the  material  dealt  with  by  us  during 
the  year  has  presented  unusual  difficulties.  Many  cases  could  easily  be  decided 
favourably;  others  could  quickly  and  with  confidence  be  refused;  but  a  large 
number  puzzled  the  Board  considerably.  Was  it  ultimately  in  the  public 
interest  and  that  of  the  offender  to  retain  him  in  an  institution  or  to  try  him 
outside  for  a  time?  The  results  show  that  only  in  a  few  instances  was  our 
estimate  of  the  offender  at  fault. 

Unemployment  always  creates  a  condition  which  leads  certain  persons  to 
commit  crime,  chiefly  against  property.  It  also  adversely  affects  parole.  Xo 
one  is  paroled  except  to  go  to  definite  employment.  Sometimes  a  paroled  man 
loses  his  job  because  of  slack  business  conditions,  and  in  spite  of  his  efforts  and 
those  of  our  staff  no  other  employment  offers  for  some  time.  This  period  of 
idleness  is  \ery  dangerous  and  accounts  for  a  number  of  the  year's  failures. 
We  know  of  no  parole  system  that  demands  a  closer  adherence  to  regulations 
than  does  that  of  this  Province.  This  means  that  paroled  men  are  now  and 
then,  classified  as  failures  who  in  former  days  or  under  other  systems  might  not 
have  been  so  termed.  We  are  confident  that  this  policy  of  strictness  is  sound. 
The  great  defect  in  practically  all  offenders  is  that  they  have  taken  law  too 
lightly.  If  they  are  to  be  re-established  as  citizens  they  must  learn  to  take  the 
law  and  also  parole  regulations  seriously.  It  is  for  this  reason  that  some  have 
been  returned  to  complete  their  full  terms  in  prison  and  others  have  been 
prosecuted  under  section  185  of  the  Criminal  Code  and  received  additional 
sentences.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  effect  of  this  will  be  favourably  shown  in 
the  records  of  next  year.  It  is  no  kindness  to  any  offender  who  is  given  a  chance 
on  parole  to  give  him  cause  to  think  that  a  breach  of  instructions  by  him  is  a 
trivial  matter. 

On  the  basis  of  successful  experiments  in  former  years  we  have  this  year 
recommended  a  considerable  number  to  be  placed  outside  on  an  Extra  Mural 
Permit  during  the  definite  sentences  given  them  by  the  court.  We  have,  in 
fact,  tried  out  some  on  permits  who  have  been  given  indeterminate  sentences 
and  have  made  their  paroles  dependent  upon  their  behaviour  while  on  permit. 
This  has  operated  for  good  in  nearly  every  case.     Since  the  Commissioner  who 


REPORT  OF  THE  No.  16 


administers  the  Extra  Mural  Permit  System  is  also  Chief  Officer  of  the  Board, 
there  is  the  utmost  harmony  and  mutual  confidence  in  the  working  of  the  two 
systems.  The  Extra  Mural  Permit  operations  ha\e  now  been  carried  on  for 
five  years.  This,  we  believe,  was  to  be  the  duration  of  the  distinctly  experi- 
mental stage  of  these  as  arranged  by  the  Commissioner.  During  this  period, 
1,149  men  have  been  granted  permits  to  work  outside  the  walls.  The  custodial 
failure  has  been  less  than  five  per  cent.,  about  $100,000  have  been  saved  the 
Province  in  the  maintenance  of  prisoners,  and  those  working  outside  under  the 
system  have  earned  a  total  of  $245,000  in  the  five  years.  This  has  all  gone  to 
their  dependents.  Having  in  many  cases  acted  in  an  advisory  way  to  the 
Commissioner  we  have  rather  intimate  knowledge  of  the  administration  of  the 
system  and  heartily  trust  that  its  remarkable  success  will  assure  its  permanent 
establishment.  When  the  Government  is  considering  the  future  of  the  system 
the  Board  believes,  with  the  Commissioner,  that  the  Parole  and  Extra  Mural 
Permit  systems  might  be  more  specifically  unified  in  administration,  and  duties 
and  responsibilities  might  be  definitely  alotted  in  a  way  that  was  impossible 
while  the  permit  system  was  looked  upon  merely  as  an  experiment. 

Although  this  is  a  report  for  the  year  ending  October  31st,  1925,  it  is,  of 
course,  being  prepared  and  presented  some  time  later.  Two  serious  losses 
sustained  by  the  Board  immediately  after  the  year  closed  should,  we  feel,  be 
recorded  here.  On  November  2nd,  1925.  the  Chairman  of  the  Board,  Mr. 
Hamilton  Cassels,  K.C.,  LL.D.,  of  Toronto,  Ont.,  passed  away.  Within  a  week 
afterwards,  the  \'ice-Chairman,  Mr.  T.  H.  Preston,  of  Brantford.  Ont.,  also  was 
suddenly  taken  from  us  by  death.  To  lose  one  of  these  members  would  have 
been  a  heavy  blow  to  the  Board.  To  lose  them  both  was  almost  irreparable. 
They  were  both  gentlemen  of  the  highest  t>pe.  They  had  the  utmost  confidence 
of  every  other  member  of  the  Board  of  which  they  had  been  members  since  its 
inception  in  1910,  and  both  had  long  before  that  shown  a  deep  and  discriminating 
interest  in  the  question  of  the  saner  and  more  effective  treatment  of  offenders 
against  the  law.  The  one  a  lawyer,  the  other  an  editor,  both  eminent  in  their 
respective  callings  and  honoured  by  their  professional  and  business  associates, 
they  brought  to  the  business  of  the  Board  of  Parole  keen  intellects,  wise  judgment, 
human  sympathy  and  solid  character.  The  present  and  all  future  members  of 
the  Board  can  have  no  surer  guide  and  no  nobler  inspiration  than  the  record  of 
those  able  and  devoted  public  servants. 

Their  death  impresses  upon  us  the  fact  that  most  of  those  who  were  instru- 
mental in  establishing  the  Ontario  Board  of  Parole  have  passed  away.  It 
would,  therefore,  seem  advisable  to  make  a  brief  statement  of  the  principles 
and  conditions  which  led  to  what  was  then  a  new  experiment  and  one  which  is 
even  yet  confined  in  Canada  to  this  Province  of  Ontario.  The  late  Chairman, 
Mr.  Hamilton  Cassels,  K.C.,  and  the  present  Chief  Officer  were  members  of  the 
small  but  active  associations  which  in  the  latter  part  of  last  century  and  early 
in  this  centry  endeavoured  to  arouse  the  public  to  the  need  of  certain  reforms 
in  the  treatment  of  our  criminals.  The  late  Vice-Chairman,  Mr.  T.  H.  Preston, 
while  a  member  of  the  Ontario  Legislature  took  a  deep  interest  in  the  problem. 
Only  two  members  of  the  present  Board  remain  of  the  original  Board  appointed 
by  the  late  Hon.  W.  J.  Hanna  in  1910,  Colonel  Noel  Marshall,  the  present 
chairman,  and  Mr.  Daniel  Miller. 

The  arguments  advanced  by  those  who  sought  to  have  a  provincial  parole 
system  established,  and  related  reforms  instituted  were  briefly  as  follows: — 

1.  The  former  treatment  of  prisoners  emphasized  the  punitive  and  neglected 
the  reformative. 


1926 ONTARIO  BOARD  OF  PAROLE 9 

2.  Previous  methods  had  proven  in  certain  respects  ineffective  and  injurious 
both  to  prisoner  and  pubUc. 

3.  Since  practically  all  prisoners  would  some  day  be  free  citizens  it  seemed 
necessary  that  something  be  done  to  encourage  and  guide  them  toward  possible 
re-establishment  as  assets  of  the  Province,  instead  of  allowing  them  remain 
liabilities. 

In  1906.  the  Dominion  Ticket-of-Leave  Act  was  passed.  By  this  Act, 
executive  clemency  throughout  the  Dominion  was  organized  upon  a  new  and 
sounder  basis,  but  this  valuable  measure  did  not  meet  all  that  was  required  by 
this  Province. 

In  1910,  a  Board  of  Parole  was,  therefore,  appointed  by  the  Honourable 
W.  J.  Hanna,  Provincial  Secretary.  This  operated  to  a  limited  extent  and  with 
many  handicaps  until  1916-17  when  Dominion  and  Provincial  legislation  made 
possible  the  large  and  increasing  operations  which  have  since  been  carried  on  in 
Ontario.     This  legislation  had  the  following  principal  features: — 

1.  It  made  feasonably  possible  the  meeting  of  the  needs  as  stated  above. 

2.  While  it  did  not  interfere  with  the  granting  of  clemency  by  the  only 
constitutional  authority,  the  responsibility  for  deciding  the  conditional  release 
of  a  prisoner  ser\ing  an  indeterminate  sentence  was  placed  upon  a  Board  which 
was  as  free  from  ulterior  influence  or  control  as  a  judge. 

3.  Control  and  supervision  toward  re-establishment  while  the  prisoner  was 
serving  the  indeterminate  sentence  was  also  given  into  the  hands  of  the  Ontario 
Board  of  Parole  and  its  staff. 

Of  not  least  importance  was  that  while  the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council 
appointed  the  Board,  he  could  not  change  or  control  its  decisions.  This  point 
was  decided  upon  deliberately  and  after  most  careful  consideration  of  the  whole 
matter  by  the  late  Hon.  W.  J.  Hanna.  Furthermore,  it  was  also  provided  that 
no  Dominion  authority  could  change  or  control  the  decision  of  the  Board, 
though  the  Minister  of  Justice,  quite  apart  from  it,  could  use  his  undoubted 
constitutional  authority  to  bring  about  the  release  of  any  prisoner  through  a 
ticket-of-leave.  Thus  the  decisions  of  the  Board  could  be  made  in  a  thoroughly 
judicial  and  independent  way,  and  in  view  of  the  great  powers  given  it  there 
was  the  solidly  based  presumption  that  the  Lieutenant-Governor  would  appoint 
to  it,  only  those  who  had  the  entire  confidence  of  the  public  of  all  parties  and 
classes.  Because  of  the  pioneer  nature  of  the  system  it  was  inevitable  that  in 
its  first  few  years  of  operation  there  should  be  difference  of  opinion  as  to  some  of 
its  features.  Owing  to  this  it  was  some  years  ago  thought  wise  to  have  a  high 
departmental  officer  appointed  to  sit  on  the  Board,  but  this  measure  proved 
unnecessary  and  inadvisable.  Under  the  present  laws  and  regulations  the 
Board  of  Parole  is  responsible  to  two  authorities  only,  the  Minister  of  Justice 
of  Canada  who  lays  down  the  Board  conditions  under  which  parole  may 
be  granted,  and  the  Lieutenant-Governor  of  Ontario  in  Council  But 
these  authorities  are  by  their  own  Acts  and  the  Acts  of  Dominion 
Parliament  and  Provincial  Legislature  prevented  from  changing  or  controlling 
the  decisions  of  the  Board  in  any  way.  Its  history  does  not  record  any 
case  in  which  either  of  these  authorities  has  shown  the  slightest  desire  to 
interfere  with  its  decisions,  but  on  the  contrary  each  of  them  has  given  it  full 
confidence  and  every  facility  to  prosecute  its  work  and  to  bear  properly  and  justly 
the  responsibilities  placed  upon  it  by  law. 

Its  members  freely  do  their  utmost  to  .serve  the  cause  of  justice  without  fear 
or  favour  and.  in  spite  of  the  many  difficulties  which  are  inseparable  from  the 
problem,  feel  their  efforts  have  justified  the  hopes  of  those  who  were  responsible 


10 REPORT  OF  THE Xo.  16 

for  the  Board's  establishment.  The  cordial  and  hearty  approval  and  co-operation 
of  governments  and  legislature  and  the  almost  unanimous  support  of  the  people 
of  the  Province  after  all  these  years  is  gratifying,  and  the  present  members  of 
the  Board  consider  that  the  principles  and  policies,  and  especially  the  experience 
of  the  last  eight  years,  furnish  a  well  established  foundation  for  successful 
procedure  in  the  days  to  come. 

No  sentence  of  any  court  is  changed  by  the  Board  to  the  extent  of  a  single 
day.  Parole  may  be  ordered  only  during  the  indeterminate  period  which  was 
given  by  the  court  for  that  express  purpose  and  approved  by  the  Board.  The 
jurisdiction  of  the  Board  is  limited  to  the  institutions  peculiarly  under  the 
control  of  the  Province  of  Ontario.  This  does  not  include  the  penitentiary. 
It  now  practically  confines  its  attentions  to  offenders  against  Dominion  law. 
In  all  cases  it  exercises  its  powers  either  of  action  or  recommendation  to  the  best 
of  its  ability.  In  previous  reports  we  have  called  attention  to  the  great  \ariety 
of  persons  coming  before  us  to  be  dealt  with.  It  is  inevitable  that  some  of 
them  should  be  somewhat  unpromising.  A  fair  percentage  of  failure  is,  there- 
fore, bound  to  occur  when  the  Board  endeavours  to  re-establish  certain  offenders, 
even  though,  proceeding  with  due  caution,  we  retain  many  offenders  inside  the 
institutions  whom  it  would  hardly  be  fair  to  the  public  to  try  outside  even  under 
supervision.  Unfortunately  the  small  number  of  failures  is  unduly  advertised 
while  the  large  number  of  those  complying  with  regulations  receives  little  or  no 
publicity. 

Shortly  after  transfer  to  an  industrial  farm  or  reformatory,  an  official 
report  concerning  each  prisoner  comes  to  our  office.  As  complete  an  investi- 
gation as  is  possible  is  then  made  by  our  staff  of  the  offender's  personal  record, 
family  history  and  all  other  facts  which  would  shed  light  on  his  character,  the 
circumstances  of  his  crime  and  its  cause.  A  report  is  received  from  the  trial 
judge  or  magistrate  and  also  from  the  custodian.  The  offender  is  in  due  course 
given  the  opportunity  of  appearing  personally  before  the  Board  and  converses 
with  it.  This  personal  interview  is  most  valuable  and  a  decision  is  rarely 
reached  without  it.  His  full  file,  with  all  documents  and  facts,  is  also  before 
the  Board.  In  giving  judgment  we  keep  in  view  the  limitations  which  are 
placed  upon  us  by  law  and  the  rights  and  interest  of  the  offender  and  the  public. 
The  difficulties  are  such  as  may  make  absolute  justice  difficult,  but  our  efforts 
are  directed  to  approximate  to  this  as  closely  as  possible.  Naturally,  we  cannot 
always  satisfy  all  parties  concerned.  As  has  been  stated  above  we  act  with 
caution  but  there  are  times  when  some  risk  seems  proper  in  the  interest  of  both 
prisoner  and  public.  No  person  is  retained  in  or  released  from  close  custody, 
or  is  returned  into  close  custody  without  very  careful  thought  and  consideration 
of  his  case  from  every  point  of  view.  Sometimes  action  is  taken  only  after 
repeated  interviews  with  the  offender.  As  citizens  of  the  Province  we  naturally 
do  not  desire  to  let  offenders  go  at  large  without  very  good  reasons.  No  ulterior 
influences  are  allowed  to  operate  and  we  endeavour  to  be  governed  neither  by 
vindictiveness  on  the  one  hand  nor  setimentality  on  the  other.  Each  year's 
experience  gives  us  a  better  basis  for  judgment.  Though  in  the  past  year  those 
coming  before  us  presented  more  real  difficulties  than  we  have  ever  faced  before, 
the  material  to  be  dealt  with  remains  largely  the  same  with  the  passing  years. 
Crimes  of  dishonesty  always  predominate.  Sex  offences  and  those  resultant 
from  defective  mentality  give  us  our  most  difficult  problems.  They  cover  a 
wide  range  of  cases.  Drug  addicts  and  certain  other  cases  we  are  still  compelled 
regretfully  to  look  upon  as  almost  hopeless,  though  recently  we  have  begun  some 
experiments  with  addicts  which  may  yield  good  results.     Our  adverse  decisions 


1926 ONTARIO  BOARD  OF  PAROLE 1_1 

are  usually  given  with  deepest  regret  and  sympathy.  F"avourable  decisions  are 
sometimes  made  with  great  hesitation.  We  are  aided  much  by  the  statements 
made  to  us  by  judges  and  others  and  since  these  are  given  to  us  in  strictest 
confidence  we  are  able  to  approach  the  \arious  cases  with  a  knowledge  which  the 
public  and  e\en  friends  of  the  prisoner  may  not  have,  nor  would  it  always  be 
fair  to  indicate  to  the  public  or  even  to  the  prisoner  or  his  friends  the  full  state- 
ment of  facts  on  which  the  decision  is  reached.  We  think  that  the  time  will 
never  come  when  the  Board  can  be  relieved  from  the  full  responsibility  of  its 
decisions  nor  be  saved  from  the  occasional  criticism  which  it  must  take  in  silence 
from  some  who  are  not  in  a  position  to  known  what  it  knows.  The  cordial 
relations  and  confidence  which  have  always  existed  between  the  members  of  the 
Board  and  between  the  Board  and  its  staff  are  essential  to  its  work.  Naturally 
there  are  at  times  some  differences  of  opinion,  these  being  frankly  expressed, 
but  the  conclusions  then  reached  are  more  likely  to  be  just  and  proper,  and 
since  the  Board  and  its  staff  acts  as  a  unit,  and  in  the  utmost  harmony  and 
confidence,  any  defects  in  our  work  result  either  from  the  class  of  offender  that 
comes  before  us  or  those  errors  of  judgment  which  are  inevitably  to  be  found  in 
all  Boards  of  a  semi-judicial  character.

ANNUAL   REPORT   OF  THE   COMMISSIONER   FOR   THE   EXTRA 

MURAL   EMPLOYMENT  OF   SENTENCED  PERSONS  FOR 

THE  YEAR  ENDING  OCTOBER  31st,  1925 

{See  Cap.  148,  R.S.C.,  Sees.  13-16,  47  and  59  and   The  Ontario  Act  Jar  the  Extra 
Mural  Employmejit  of  Sentenced  Persons.) 

During  the  year,  216  were  granted  Extra  Mural  Permits  to  work  outside. 
Seven  of  these  were  re-arrested  for  other  offences  committed  while  on  permit. 
Five  disappeared. 

This  year's  operations  completed  the  five-year  term  which  it  was  understood 
would  be  looked  upon  as  the  experimental  period.  I  ha\'e  already  laid  before 
you  an  exhaustive  report  giving  all  the  essential  facts  and  findings  of  the  experi- 
ence of  these  five  years  but  a  brief  outline  of  these  would  seem  to  be  in  order  in 
this  report. 

The  experiment  was  undertaken  with  the  problem  of  male  prisoners  in 
view,  though  a  few  women  were  satisfactorily  granted  permits  during  the  term. 
The  following  statistics,  therefore,  are  for  men  alone.  They  cover  the  full  five 
years : — 

Permits  granted 1,149 

Disappeared  or  broke  the  law 49 

Recaptured  and  sentenced ' 33 

Aggregate  davs  served  outside  on  permit 101,739 

Wages  earned  (cir.) $245,000  00 

Total  cost  of  the  system  to  the  Province  (cir.) $4,000  00 

Net  saving  to  the  public  in  the  care  and  keep  of  prisoners  (cir.) $100,000  00 

Notes: 

(a)  The  total  custodial  failures  were  less  than  five  per  cent,  of  those  placed 
outside. 

(b)  The  cost  of  upkeep  of  an  inmate  inside  provincial  institutions  averages 
somewhat  over  $1.10  per  diem.  The  total  cost  of  each  prisoner  placed  outside 
on  permit  averaged  less  than  four  cents  per  diem.  In  spite  of  the  valuable  aid 
which  has  been  freely  given  by  many  officials  and  private  citizens  throughout  the 
Province,  especially  the  Ontario  Board  of  Parole,  its  staff  and  equipment,  and 
which  will  always  be  essential,  such  a  low  cost  while  possible  in  an  experiment 
could  not  be  maintained  in  a  permanent  scheme.  It  might  run  up  to  fifteen 
cents  a  day  for  each  prisoner.  I  see  no  reason  why  it  should  ever  run  over  twenty 
cents,  which  is  about  one-sixth  the  average  daily  cost  of  an  inmate  inside  a 
provincial  institution. 

(c)  The  system  is  the  equiv^alent  of  an  institution  with  a  daily  population 
varying  from  fifty  to  one  hundred  prisoners.  There  was  a  progressive  increase 
in  the  number  placed  outside  on  permit  for  the  first  four  years.  The  fifth 
year  showed  a  slight  decrease. 

The  Intra  Mural  Employment  of  Prisoners 

From  ancient  times  it  has  been  presumed  that  prisoners  should  be  given 
employment  when  this  was  profitable  or  convenient  to  their  captors.  They 
have  been  put  to  work  in  gangs  on  public  buildings,  roads,  in  the  galleys  and 

[3] 


4 REPORT   OF   THE   COMMISSIONER No.  61 

elsewhere,  as  this  suited  public  convenience  or  profit,  or  for  purposes  of  punish- 
ment. Benefit  or  advantage  to  the  prisoner  has  rarely,  until  recently,  been 
considered;  in  fact,  his  treatment  has  often  been  directly  contrary  to  his  good. 
Idleness  was  the  lot  of  many,  only  relieved  by  the  treadmill  or  similar  con- 
trivances for  the  carrying  out  of  the  sentence  which  included  the  phrase  "with 
hard  labour."  Even  in  many  of  the  county  jails  of  this  progressive  Province 
of  Ontario,  apart  from  cooking,  cleaning,  etc.,  idleness  is  the  rule,  though  in 
winter,  snow  may  be  sho\'elled,  and  in  the  summer,  some  roadmaking  and  garden- 
ing may  be  done,  and  in  two  or  three  jails  some  other  work  is  carried  on  for  the 
counties  concerned.  Of  course  in  this  Province  the  jails  are  merely  used  for 
temporary  detention  or  very  short  terms. 

During  the  last  half  of  the  past  century  in  Great  Britain,  the  United  States, 
Canada  and  elsewhere,  work  was  increasingly  allotted  to  prisoners  for  the  triple 
purposes  of  lessening  the  cost  of  maintenance  to  the  taxpayer,  the  improvement 
and  upkeep  of  the  property,  and  also  for  the  health  of  the  prisoner,  the  idea  of 
work  as  punishment  operating  less  and  less  except  in  rare  cases.  Fifty  years 
ago,  prison  labour  was  (and  is  even  yet,  in  too  many  of  the  American  States, 
about  twenty)  let  by  contract  at  a  small  sum  per  day  which  was  devoted  to 
reducing  the  cost  of  prison  upkeep.  This  has  had  certain  financial  advantages 
to  the  state  and  has  shown  that  many  prisoners  could  be  productively  employed, 
but  the  objections  to  it  are  very  serious  and  the  pressure  of  enlightened  public 
opinion  and  of  free  labour  is  compelling  governments  to  discontinue  it.  However, 
it  is  clear  that  with  the  passing  of  the  contract  system  other  work  must  be 
devised  for  prisoners  to  save  cost  of  upkeep  of  institutions  and  to  prevent  the 
degenerating  results  of  idleness. 

But  an  additional  object  in  the  employment  of  prisoners  is  now  denianded 
by  the  public.  Until  very  recently  the  prisoner's  family  or  dependents  could 
go  to  the  devil  so  far  as  the  public  cared.  Officialdom  certainly  took  no  interest. 
The  man  had  broken  the  law  and  had  to  be  punished  by  imprisonment.  If  his 
dependents  suffered  it  could  not  be  helped.  Friends,  philanthropic  agencies, 
churches  or  municipalities  might  help  the  innocent  dependents  if  they  pleased, 
but  it  was  held  that  the  punishment  of  the  prisoner  must  not  be  lessened  nor  the 
burden  to  the  state  increased  because  others  were  suffering  also.  The  fallacy 
of  this  contention  eventually  became  so  clear  that  in  a  number  of  the  states 
of  the  American  Republic,  experiments  were  made  in  the  employment  of  prisoners 
at  productive  labour  and  the  crediting  of  wages  to  the  prisoner  for  his  dependents. 
After  a  good  many  years  of  trial  this  payment  of  wages  has  practically  become 
a  settled  policy  in  some  states. 

There  are,  however,  some  serious  difficulties  and  objections  to  it. 
If  F.  and  P.  have  wives  and  families  and  are  both  out  of  work  and  in  want, 
and  P.  finds  that  by  committing  a  crime,  he  may  be  successful  in  getting  money 
or  if  unsuccessful,  he  and  his  family  are  supported  by  the  state,  will  not  F.  be 
tempted  to  follow  P.'s  example,  or  feel  grave  injustice  at  the  spectacle  of  a  law 
breaker  and  his  family  being  aided  while  an  honest  man  is  left  to  suffer?  Further- 
more, while  it  is  clear  that  the  state  could,  if  it  wished,  pay  a  bonus  or  gratuity 
to  anyone,  and  while  it  may  be  reasonably  contended  in  certain  cases  that  such  a 
bonus  or  gratuity  should  be  paid  out  of  the  public  funds  to  the  dependents  of 
prisoners,  a  real  wage  can  only  be  economically  sound  and  possible  if  it  is  a  fair 
recognition  and  return  for  actual  net  value  given.  Whether  and  what  wages 
can  be  paid  to  prisoners  will  depend,  therefore,  mainly  on  the  following: — 

1.  The  prisoner's  physical  and  mental  ability  and  his  attitude. 

2.  The  availability  of  employment  suited  to  his  abilities. 


1926 FOR    EXTRA    MURAL    EMPLOYMENT  5 

3.  The  length  of  the  term  for  which  the  prisoner  will  actually  remain  inside 
the  institution  and  at  a  particular  job  which  he  has  been  trained  to  perform 
efficiently. 

4.  The  market  and  demand  for  his  products. 

5.  The  cost  of  handling  the  product. 

6.  The  cost  of  housing,  feeding  and  custody;  and  depreciation  and  repairs 
of  building  and  equipment. 

7.  The  interest  on  capital  invested  in  the  plant  and  material. 

Possibly  the  first  item  is  the  most  important  but  all  are  closely  related. 
On  them  all  depends  whether  a  wage  can  be  economically  paid  and  if  so,  how 
much,  or  whether  the  defects  and  unfortunate  attitude  of  the  prisoner  and  the 
overhead  charges  are  such  that  he  is  and  will  remain  a  financial  loss  to  the 
institution. 

In  the  year  ending  October  31st,  1924,4,328  persons  were  sentenced  to  the 
five  provincial  reformatories  or  farms  of  Ontario  and  to  the  two  Toronto  Muni- 
cipal Farms.  Of  these.  443  could  neither  read  nor  write;  1,555  classed  themselves 
as  labourers  or  of  no  occupation.  Of  the  1,289  classed  as  mechanics  experience 
has  shown  that  only  a  very  few  of  these  would  be  recognized  as  real  mechanics. 
Many  of  them  are.  as  they  call  themselves,  "auto  mechanics,"  who  hardly  know 
how  to  do  more  than  handle  a  dust  rag  or  take  a  tip.  Of  the  360  classed  as 
agriculturalists  not  many  are  very  intelligent  farm  hands.  In  other  words  the 
great  majority  of  the  inmates  of  our  institutions  are  practically  untrained,  and 
their  economic  value  is  by  no  means  high,  even  as  free  men. 

After  a  good  many  years  association  with  prisoners,  though  I  have  found 
many  very  likeable  men  among  them,  some  highly  capable  and  intelligent,  and 
not  a  few  decent  and  in  many  respects  reliable,  I  think  it  is  safe  to  say  that  a 
large  number  are  not  dependable  (for  mental,  moral  or  physical  reasons)  and  the 
majority  are  not  economically  of  very  great  value,  being  untrained  and  not 
having  the  right  attitude  toward  public  service.  It  would,  I  believe,  be  safe 
to  say  that  of  the  4,328  prisoners  mentioned  in  the  Deputy  Provincial  Secretary's 
report  for  1924,  over  3,000  have  not  the  ability  nor  attitude  which  would  make 
the  payment  of  wages  to  them  economically  possible  under  any  practicable 
internal  custodial  conditions,  and  when  the  actual  intra  mural  custodial  con- 
ditions are  taken  into  account  the  number  which  might  possibly  be  paid  wages 
on  a  sound  economic  basis  is  still  less.  Over  half  the  number  of  those  incarcerated 
in  the  year  ending  1924  were  serving  three  months  or  less.  Over  a  third  were 
serving  but  one  month ;  939  had  indeterminate  sentences.  These  facts  without 
any  others  show  how  difficult  it  would  be  to  attempt  to  pay  w^ages  to  non- 
penitentiary  prisoners  in  Ontario  on  any  sound  basis  except  in  occasional  cases. 
The  problem  of  penitentiary  long-term  prisoners  is,  of  course,  another  matter, 
nor  am  I  here  dealing  at  all  with  the  question  as  to  whether  the  Province  should 
undertake  to  assist  the  dependents  of  its  prisoners  out  of  the  public  purse. 
That  is  also  another  matter  and  would  involve  a  revision  of  a  past  policy  which 
places  dependents  upon  municipalities  rather  than  upon  the  Province.  However, 
the  Ontario  Extra  Mural  Permit  System  with  which  this  report  deals  is  based 
upon  the  assumption  that  whether  the  payment  of  gratuities  to  dependents  of 
prisoners  is  proper  or  improper,  it  is  certainly  undesirable  if  it  can  be  avoided. 
In  the  provincial  institutions  of  Ontario  a  creditable  effort  has  been  made  to 
use  the  labour  of  inmates  to  the  physical  and  mental  advantage  of  prisoners 
and  public.  In  the  Ontario  Reformatory  at  Guelph  for  example,  work  was  done 
last  year  by  prisoners  in  weaving,  farming,  packing,  canning  and  other  products 
to  be  used  by  provincial  institutions  which  reduced  the  expense  of  upkeep  by 


6  REPORT   OF   THE   COMMISSIONER  No.  61 

$340,308.17.  A  very  creditable  figure  indeed.  But  the  full  aggregate  cost  of 
that  reformatory  for  the  same  year  was  twice  that  sum.  This  showing  of  such  a 
well  managed  institution  demonstrates  the  practical  economic  difficulties  in  the 
way  of  paying  wages  to  intra  mural  prisoners.  If  reformatory  products 
were  more  extensively  used  by  provincial  departments  which  now  buy  from  the 
regular  markets,  the  taxpayers  would  undoubtedly  benefit;  but  even  then  the 
feasibility  of  a  general  payment  of  wages  would  be  by  no  means  sure.  If  certain 
industries  in  the  reformatory — the  abattoir  at  Guelph  or  the  tile  plant  at  Mimico 
for  example,  and  certain  selected  inmates  were  alone  to  be  considered,  the  matter 
would  be  somewhat  simpler  and  less  difficult  of  solution.  It  might  be  worth 
while  to  make  a  definite  experiment  of  a  "one  industry"  place  like  Mimico  for  a 
few  years  as  a  wage-paying  institution,  with  carefully  selected  prisoners.  But 
the  full  institutional  overhead  of  the  Province  should  really  be  included  and  all 
the  institutions  and  prisoners  considered  together.  The  taking  out  of  this 
institution  and  these  selected  prisoners,  would  increase  the  deficit  on  the  rest. 
The  apparently  settled  impossibility  in  Ontario  of  the  sale  of  the  products  of 
prison  labour  in  the  open  market,  and  the  failure  up  to  the  present  of  an  adequate 
use  of  prison  labour  for  the  needs  of  provincial  institutions,  makes  it  impossible 
as  yet  to  use  prison  labour  to  its  full  economic  extent  even  if  its  full  value  were 
much  higher  than  it  is. 

I  have  visited  and  examined  the  records  in  a  number  of  American  institutions 
which  pay  wages  to  prisoners  for  dependents.  With  long  term  men  it  seems 
to  have  been  carried  on  with  economic  soundness  but  with  the  rest  I  confess 
myself  not  satisfied.  When  the  overhead  expenses  were  all  taken  into  account, 
even  a  small  wage  in  most  cases  was  really  a  gratuity  paid  out  of  public  funds. 
It  is  not  easy  to  get  the  full  facts  in  connection  with  some  of  these  institutions. 
The  organization  for  producing  work  is  rather  complete  but  the  cost  is  great,  and 
under  a  proper  system  of  accounting  would  show  a  material  addition  to  the 
overhead  charges.  It  is  an  interesting  fact  that  in  1923  the  product  of  prison 
industries  in  the  United  States  was  S69,000,000;  $26,000,000  worth  of  these 
were  for  public  institutions;  $43,000,000  worth  sold  on  the  open  market.  These 
figures  include  goods  manufactured  under  the  contract  system.  But  while 
they  are  large  they  by  no  means  indicate  a  profit.  The  total  overhead  expense 
was  far  greater. 

Here  are  the  main  questions: — 

1.  Should  the  prisoner  be  employed? 

2.  Who  is  to  settle  what  his  employment  should  be? 

3.  Should  the  financial  returns  be  the  lessening  of  the  cost  of  his  upkeep? 

4.  Should  the  financial  returns  be  devoted  to  the  maintenance  of  his 
dependents? 

5.  Should  his  employment  be  selected  with  a  view  to  its  efifect  upon  him  and 
his  future  after  his  discharge? 

6.  Should  all  these  objects  be  kept  in  view  and  in  what  order  of  importance? 

In  answering  these  other  questions  will  arise: — 

(a)  Are  there  many  sentenced  to  imprisonment  who  should  instead  be 
placed  outside  on  probation  under  strict  conditions? 

(b)  Are  some  sentenced  to  imprisonment  who  really  should  have  been 
given  a  sound  spanking  and  sent  home  on  parole  with  a  warning  as  to  the  future? 
In  this  latter  question  I  am  thinking  of  young  fellows  who  are  merely  mischievous, 
thoughtless  or  lazy,  or  of  those  convicted  of  certain  assaults  or  of  those  who 


1926 FOR    EXTRA   MURAL    EMPLOYMENT 7 

refuse  lo  support  dependents,  or  of  similar  offenders.  It  would  seem  that  the 
number  of  actual  prisoners  could  be  in  this  way  lessened  to  the  distinct  advantage 
of  all  concerned. 

(c)  If  some  must  be  incarcerated  as  the  only  means  of  protecting  the  public, 
or  to  put  it  in  another  way,  if  they  need  to  be  put  into  temporary  or  extended 
quarantine,  should  they  not  be  given  long  indefinite  sentences  so  that  they 
might  stay  long  enough  at  one  job  in  an  institution  to  learn  that  job,  earn  their 
keep,  and  possibly  support  their  dependents  as  well.  The  problem  of  the  rest 
might  be  solved  in  several  ways,  mainly  the  following: — 

L  There  are  a  number  of  young  fellows  who  can  and  should  learn  a  trade 
if  they  are  ever  to  succeed  as  citizens  outside.  Should  provision  not  be  made 
definitely  for  this  and  should  such  sentences  not  be  given  to  them  as  would  enable 
the  authorities  to  hold  them  inside  until  they  had  sufhciently  learned  a  trade.-' 
Their  parole  would  be  practically  in  their  own  hands. 

2.  Many  prisoners  given  indeterminate  sentences  can  after  a  term  ot  in- 
carceration be  safely  paroled  in  their  own  interest  and  that  of  their  dependents. 
It  has  been  shown  that  in  about  eighty  per  cent,  of  those  selected  by  the  Ontario 
Board  of  Parole  the  appeal  to  honour  as  well  as  fear  of  return  has  been  successful. 

3.  There  is  the  Extra  Mural  Permit  System  on  which  the  rest  of  this  report 
will  be  centered.  It  seemed  ad\'isable  to  make  the  above  introduction  in  order 
to  answer  the  possible  question  as  to  why  prisoners  should,  during  sentence, 
for  financial  reasons,  be  placed  outside  to  work  at  all. 


THE  EXTRA  MURAL  EMPLOYMENT  OF  PRISONERS 

The  actual  present  experiment  began  in  the  fiscal  year  1920-2  L  At  the 
start  it  was  extremely  tentative  and  at  first  only  offenders  against  provincial  law 
were  dealt  with.  The  object,  as  I  have  already  stated,  was  to  find  out  whether 
prisoners,  without  changing  their  status  in  any  way  but  merely  the  environment 
could,  without  emperiling  custody,  be  employed  outside  an  institution  to  the 
advantage  of  the  prisoner,  the  family  and  the  public. 

One  all-important  point  should,  I  think,  be  made  clear  at  the  outset.  The 
Extra  Mural  Permit  System  is  neither  legal  or  executive  clemency  nor  is  it  parole. 
It  does  not  lessen  any  sentence  of  a  court.  It  is  essentially  and  wholly  a  plan 
for  the  placing  of  a  convicted  person  at  work  outside  instead  of  inside  the  bounds 
of  an  institution,  in  proper  custody  under  conditions  which  are  deemed  to  be  in 
the  common  interest  of  himself,  his  family  and  of  the  Province.  His  liberty  has 
been  taken  away  from  him  b}^  the  court.  His  control  is  in  the  hands  of  the 
Province.  This  system  is  based  upon  the  right  of  the  Province  to  control  him 
for  his  good  and  its  good  during  the  period  of  his  sentence.  It  does  not  grant 
him  his  liberty. 

The  legal  method  under  which  the  prisoner  is  at  present  placed  outside  on  a 
permit  is  through  an  Order  of  the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council  in  each  case. 
This  has  been  called  a  cumbrous  and  unnecessary  piece  of  mere  formality.  It 
has  been  said  that  for  a  cabinet  to  be  compelled  to  leave  weighty  matters  of 
wide  public  importance  in  order  to  decide  where  a  prisoner  John  Doe  should 
work  w'as  absurd.  It  is  pointed  out  that  while  a  prisoner  is  held  inside  an 
institution  this  responsibility  is  placed  upon  a  superintendent  who  is  under 
obligation  in  choosing  the  place  of  an  inmate's  employment  carefully  to  consider 


8  REPORT   OF   THE    COMMISSIONER  No.  61 

custody  as  well  as  all  other  matters,  and  it  is  held  that  instead  of  the  responsi- 
bility being  placed  upon  the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council  for  employing  a 
prisoner  outside  the  walls,  the  same  method  (i.e.  the  decision  and  authority  of 
one  official)  should  be  followed  as  in  the  case  of  his  intra-mural  employment. 

Against  this  contention  must  be  placed  the  all-important  fact  that  according 
to  the  Dominion  law  as  it  now  stands  this  would  be  illegal.  No  authority  but 
the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council  has  the  legal  right  to  order  the  employment 
of  any  prisoner  beyond  the  limits  of  an  institution.  No  other  course  is,  therefore, 
legally  possible  than  to  have  the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council  pass  a  special 
order  in  each  case.  However,  under  the.  Extra  Mural  System  the  cabinet  does 
practically  place  the  full  responsibility  upon  a  commissioner  and  gives  him  certain 
well  defined  powers.  It  has  accepted  his  recommendations  in  every  case.  No 
other  method  would  seem  to  be  workable  as  well  as  legal.  Against  this  it  is 
stated  that  since  by  the  present  method  the  cabinet  council  is  compelled  to  trust 
the  commissioner,  the  law  should  be  changed  so  that  the  power  as  well  as  the 
responsibility  of  decision  and  custody  in  all  cases  would  be  given  to  the  com- 
missioner. The  formal  passing  of  an  order-in-council  in  each  case  would  then  be 
unnecessary.  But  it  is  very  doubtful  whether  at  the  outset  of  the  experiment 
(or  even  yet)  the  Dominion  Parliament  would  have  so  changed  the  law.  There 
was  not  a  body  of  facts  on  which  to  base  a  sufliciently  strong  argument  in  favour 
of  such  a  measure,  and  therefore,  in  spite  of  the  above  contentions,  which  were 
clearly  seen,  the  experiment  was  undertaken  in  strict  conformity  with  the  law 
as  it  existed.  At  present,  therefore,  though  the  cabinet  council  has  legally  to 
give  authority  to  the  commissioner  in  every  single  case,  it  recognizes  that  it 
really  has  to  rely  wholly  upon  him  and  to  place  the  full  responsibility  upon  him, 
holding  him  strictly  accountable  for  all  his  actions. 

It  would,  of  course,  be  preposterous  to  think  that  the  cabinet  or  any  member 
of  it  should  be  compelled  to  go  into  all  the  necessary  details  in  each  or  any  case. 
For  in  deciding  the  question  whether  John  Doe  should  be  placed  outside  to  work 
many  facts  have  to  be  known. 

L  The  prisoner  has  to  be  personally  sized  up,  his  record  investigated,  his 
attitude  and  probable  reliability  determined  and  also  his  ability  and  mentality. 

2.  It  has  to  be  decided  whether,  however  erroneously,  the  public  or  those 
interested  might  with  any  reasonable  grounds  interpret  the  granting  of  a  permit 
as  legal  clemency  or  a  condoning  of  the  offence,  to  the  injury  of  the  administration 
of  justice. 

3.  The  family  conditions  have  to  be  known  and  properly  estimated  in 
relation  to  the  prisoner. 

4.  Specific  employment  has  to  be  arranged  in    conformity  with  the  law. 

5.  Some  local  responsible  and  willing  party  has  to  be  secured  who  will 
undertake  his  strict  custody,  acting  on  behalf  of  the  commissioner. 

6.  Specific  instructions  in  the  case  of  each  prisoner  have  to  be  decided 
upon,  which  will  reasonably  ensure  the  adequate  carrying  out  of  the  sentence 
of  the  court  and  which  will  ser\e  the  interest  of  all  concerned. 

Whether  in  view  of  the  abo\e  the  Commissioner  for  the  Extra  Mural 
Employment  of  Sentenced  Persons  should  ultimately  be  given  the  same  respon- 
sibilities and  powers  in  regard  to  extra  mural  employment  and  custody  of 
prisoners  as  the  official  who  has  charge  of  the  intra-mural  employment  of  prisoners 
I  am  not  yet  prepared  to  advise.

The  Essential  Features  of  the  System 

L  Though  the  prisoner  is  outside  during  his  term  of  sentence  he  is  neither 
"at  large"  nor  is  he  "released."  He  is  not  on  ticket-of-leave  nor  is  he  paroled. 
His  status  is  not  changed  by  the  permit,  nor  is  the  sentence. 

2.  He  is  placed  outside  solely  for  "specific  employment"  (see  148,  R.S.C.) 
sections  13-16,  47.  Illness,  sentiment,  doubt  as  to  the  wisdom  of  conviction 
or  sentence,  services  to  the  Crown,  or  other  similar  matters  do  not  enter  into 
the  decision.  These  points  may  be  taken  into  account  when  a  case  is  being 
considered  for  clemency  by  the  proper  constitutional  authorities,  but  not  by 
the  Commissioner  for  Extra  Mural  Employment. 

3.  The  earnings  of  the  prisoner  outside  on  permit  go  wholly  to  him  and  his 
dependents  and  not  to  the  Province  or  to  any  ofihcial.  This  is  a  far  cry  from 
the  contract  system  under  which  all  earnings  went  to  government  and  contractor. 

4.  The  commissioner  has  complete  custody  of  the  prisoner  and  can  appoint 
a  local  deputy  to  act  on  his  behalf  with  custodial  powers.  The  co-operation 
received  by  the  commissioner  from  judges,  magistrates,  police,  clergymen. 
Salvation  Army  officers,  and  many  other  responsible  citizens  has  been  most 
gratifying  and  effective.  They  have  taken  charge  of  prisoners  voluntarily  and 
without  expense  to  the  public  and  have  done  splendid  work. 

5.  The  assistance  received  from  the  Board  of  Parole  and  its  staff  has  been 
invaluable. 

6.  The  system  is  based  fundamentally  on  the  presumption  that  when  a 
prisoner's  liberty  is  taken  from  him  this  time  should  be  used,  with  a  view  to 
the  fact  that  he  will  eventually  be  a  free  man.  It  takes  it  for  granted  that  while 
the  offender  needs  institutional  treatment  for  at  least  a  while,  there  is  a  psycho- 
logical time  after  which  this  is  needless,  ineffective  and  harmful  to  prisoner  and 
public  and  that  at  that  time  it  is  best  for  all  concerned  that  he  be  placed  to 
work  outside  on  a  permit  instead  of  inside.  It  also  presumes  that  whether 
inside  or  outside  he  shall  be  occupied  to  the  best  economic  interest  of  himself 
and  the  public. 

7.  Fortunately  public  opinion  in  Ontario  is  such  that  though  the  commis- 
sioner is  a  provincial  appointee  and  has  to  receive  authority  in  each  case 
from  the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council,  no  attempt  whatever  has  been 
made  by  the  Council  or  any  member  of  it  to  use  political  or  other  pressure 
upon  him. 

Some  Difficulties  of  the  System 

1.  In  certain  important  respects  it  is  new  and  caution  has,  therefore,  been 
observed  from  the  first,  though  developments  were  found  possible  this  last 
year  which  were  considered  unwise  at  first.  The  problem  has  been  to  find  the 
approximate  common  interest  of  the  public,  the  prisoner  and  his  family. 

2.  It  has  not  been  easy  to  determine  the  reliability  and  fitness  of  those 
proposed  as  local  custodians  but  this  difficulty  has  been  lessened  by  the  very 
fine  quality  of  public  spirit  and  citizenship  of  those  who  were  willing  to  give 
their  services. 

3.  To  apply  the  system  to  single  men  with  no  dependents  was  clearly  rather 
a  perilous  venture,  but  it  has  proven  well  worth  while  in  spite  of  a  few  failures. 

4.  Difficulties  which  might  have  arisen  in  connection  with  offenders  against 
the  Ontario  Temperance  Act  were  avoided  by  adopting  the  policy  that  the 
commissioner  should  take  no  action  in  such  cases  except  on  the  advice  of  the 
Board  of  License  Commissioners. 


10 REPORT   OF    THE    COMMISSIONER No.  61 

Special  Dangers  of  the  System 

1.  The  commissioner  needs  continually  to  bear  in  mind  his  constitutional 
limitations  and  requirements  and  that  an  Extra  Mural  Permit  is  in  no  sense 
legal  or  executive  clemency  nor  a  change  of  the  sentence  of  the  court.  The 
objects  of  the  system  would  be  defeated  if  the  sentence  were  changed .  Practically 
all  ofifenders  need  to  lose  their  liberty  for  the  full  time  set  by  the  court.  The 
commissioner's  powers  are  wholly  confined,  with  the  necessary  approval  of  the 
Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council,  to  determining  when  it  would  seem  advisable 
in  the  interest  of  all  concerned  that  a  prisoner  should  be  employed  outside  instead 
of  inside  an  institution  without  any  change  in  his  status  as  a  prisoner. 

2.  Since  no  ofificial  is  perfect  there  is  always  the  possibility  of  ulterior 
influences  operating.  Vour  commissioner  believes  that  he  has  successfully  kept 
away  from  these  and  has  endeavoured  to  be  judicial  and  scientific.  Very  few 
attempts  have  been  made  to  influence  his  decisions  improperly  on  political  or 
any  grounds  whatever,  and  the  support  of  go\'ernments  has  been  such  as  has 
enabled  him  to  deal  with  these  as  the  circumstances  seemed  properly  to  demand. 

3.  There  was  the  danger  that  the  system  might  at  least  to  some  extent  be 
interpreted  as  nulifying  the  intention  of  the  court  and  the  efTect  of  the  sentence 
on  the  public.  I  believe  a  careful  review  of  the  cases  dealt  with  during  the 
five  years  will  fail  to  show  any  reasonable  grounds  for  such  an  interpretation. 
When  there  has  been  any  doubt  on  this  point  I  have  either  given  an  adverse 
decision  or  have  communicated  with  the  judge  or  magistrate  regarding  the 
matter.  It  would  never  do  for  the  system  to  be  so  administered  as  to  give  any 
reasonable  cause  whatever  for  such  an  interpretation  to  be  put  upon  the  granting 
of  a  permit  in  any  case.  It  has  been  said  that  in  some  cases  the  granting  of  a 
permit  to  a  prisoner  has  increased  his  comfort  and  therefore  decreased  his 
punishment.  Against  this  could  be  put  the  fact  that  even  inside  an  institution 
the  change  of  a  man's  employment  say  from  a  sewer  or  a  quarry  to  a  green 
house  or  an  office  would  decrease  his  discomfort  and  his  punishment.  The  objec- 
tions cannot  be  held  as  having  any  great  weight.  Certainly  a  permit  in  all 
cases  had  added  responsibilities  to  the  prisoner  accepting  it.  In  not  a  few  cases 
the  acceptance  of  a  permit  by  a  prisoner  has  distinctly  increased  his  penalty 
but  he  was  willing  to  accept  it  because  of  what  it  meant  to  his  family. 

4.  There  is  the  danger  of  giving  responsibility  of  decision  to  one  man,  but 
it  can  hardly  be  avoided.  The  powers  given  properly  and  necessarily  to  institu- 
tional custodials  is  similarly  dangerous  but  there  is  a  distinct  advantage  in 
being  able  to  hold  one  ollicial  responsible  and  the  power  should  be  gi\en  to  him 
proportionate  to  his  proper  responsibilities.  The  commissioner  can  legally  act 
only  with  the  powers  given  him  by  law  and  conferred  upon  him  in  each  case  by 
the  Lieutenant-Governor  in  Council. 

5.  The  great  danger  of  the  system  is  the  custodial.  The  figures  given 
above  show  that  this  has  been  guarded  against  with  reasonable  and  rather 
striking  success.  Forty-nine  failures  out  of  1,149  is  a  little  less  than  5  per  cent. 
Thirty-three  of  the  forty-nine  prisoners  were  recaptured;  less  than  2  per  cent., 
therefore,  have  up  to  the  present  got  away  and  maintained  their  unlawful 
freedom. 

The  Principal  Benefits  of  the  System 

1.  The  saving  of  suffering  and  punishment  to  many  innocent  dependents  of 
offenders. 

The  family  is  an  organic  unit.  There  is  much  suffering  brought  upon  the 
other  members  by  the  one  who  goes  wrong  and  which  is  unescapable.     Nothing 


1926 FOR   EXTRA   MURAL    EMPLOYMENT 11 

can  be  done  to  alleviate  it.  But  some  kinds  of  hardship  bear  upon  innocent 
dependents  of  offenders  which  can  be  lifted,  at  least  to  some  extent,  and  which 
should  be  taken  off  their  weak  shoulders.  In  ancient  days  a  whole  clan  was 
wiped  out,  including  women  and  children,  for  the  misdeed  of  one  member. 
We  abhor  this  but  are  guilty  of  similar  cruelty  when  we  seize  and  imprison  a 
man  who  was  the  only  support  of  his  family  and  make  no  attempt  to  provide 
for  its  needs.  The  Extra  Mural  Permit  System  of  Ontario  is  by  no  means  a 
panacea  but  it  does  meet  this  need  in  many  cases.  Instead  of  offering  cold 
charity  or  kindly  philanthropy  or  municipal  doles  to  those  left  destitute  it 
gives  the  crimiinal  himself  the  opportunil}-  to  sa\"e  his  family  from  want.  It 
does  this  without  expense,  but  rather  a  considerable  saving,  to  the  Province 
and  with  no  sacrifice  of  the  just  demands  of  the  law.  Unless  and  until  some 
better  plan  offers  it  would  seem  right  and  proper  to  maintain  and  develop  this. 

There  are  some  who  repudiate  the  responsibility  of  the  public  to  provide 
for  the  family  of  a  prisoner  and  call  it  a  sentimental  interference  with  the  course 
of  justice.  They  point  to  the  flaws  in  a  system  which  no  one  claims  to  be  perfect. 
They  point  to  the  man's  offence  against  society.  He  stole  a  car,  or  forged  a 
note  or  committed  some  other  crime.  He  should  be  imprisoned  and  kept  in 
prison,  they  say,  no  matter  what  suffering  is  entailed  to  others.  He  did  the  deed. 
The  public  was  wronged  thereby.  Why  should  the  public  bear  any  of  his  family 
responsibilities?  Such  is  the  attitude,  fortunately,  of  but  a  few.  It  is  plausible, 
but  one  sided  and  heartless.  A  frail  wife  and  her  little  children  have  surely 
had  trouble  enough  from  the  conviction  of  the  husband  and  father.  Why  add 
to  this  by  inflicting  financial  and  physical  suft'ering  upon  these  innocent  persons 
if  it  can  be  avoided?  (It  sometimes  cannot  be  avoided.)  To  protest  against 
this  is  surely  not  sentimentality  but  real  and  reasonable  humanity.  By  what 
ethical  right  can  these  persons,  wholly  guiltless  of  wrong  doing,  be  included  in 
the  penalty  quite  properly  inflicted  upon  the  criminal  himself,  unless  there  is  no 
escape  from  this? 

Some  years  ago  a  farmer  was  convicted  of  certain  property  crimes  and  was 
given  a  sentence  of  two  years  in  the  Ontario  Reformatory.  It  was  a  just  sentence. 
He  was  a  farmer  who  had  not  yet  completed  his  payments  for  his  farm.  If  he 
remained  actually  in  the  reformatory  for  the  two  years  he  would  lose  it.  He 
had  a' good  wife  and  two  fine  little  boys.  They  would  lose  their  farm.  The 
boys  were  future  assets  of  the  Province.  They  might  be  turned  into  liabilities. 
It  seemed  unjust  and  foolish  so  to  punish  the  offender  as  to  cause  needless  and 
serious  suffering  and  loss  to  his  dependents  and  also  to  the  Province.  Lender  the 
Extra  Mural  System  he  was  after  a  few  months  sent  from  the  reformatory  back 
to  his  farm.  His  status  as  a  prisoner  was  not  charged.  His  sentence  was  not 
lessened.  He  was  in  the  custody  of  certain  township  officials  acting  on  behalf 
of  the  commissioner.  He  was  held  within  certain  rigid  restrictions.  He  made 
good.  At  the  end  of  his  term  he  was  discharged.  The  farm  was  saved  to  his 
boys.  That  is  a  fair  example  of  how  the  system  works.  Hundreds  of  others 
could  be  given. 

2.  Magistrates  and  judges  are  freer  to  gi\"e  adequate  sentences  knowing 
that  so  far  as  it  can  be  arranged  in  the  public  interest,  the  suffering  of  needy 
and  innocent  dependents  will  be  alleviated. 

3.  The  guiding  of  many  offenders  themselves  to  re-establishment  at  the 
end  of  their  sentences,  through  the  channel  of  work  for  themselves  or  for  their 
dependents  outside  as  if  they  were  free  men,  and  apparently  under  the  conditions 
of  free  men.  though  they  are  well  aware  that  they  are  not  free  but  are  strictly 
accountable  and  in  all  essentials  are  under  control  by  the  Province. 


12 REPORT   OF   THE    COMMISSIONER No.  61 

Time  alone  can  determine  how  far  this  is  permanently  effective.  The 
five  years'  experience  is  not  sufficient  to  show  whether  the  re-establishment  of 
those  granted  permits  is  lasting.  The  results  so  far  give  hope  of  a  rather  small 
number  of  failures  but  it  is  not  wise  to  mix  hopes  with  facts.  I  think  it  may  be 
said,  howe^'er,  that  the  psychology  of  the  statement  is  sound. 

4.  The  financial  advantage  to  dependents,  to  municipalities  or  philanthropic 
agencies  who  otherwise  would  find  it  necessary  to  support  the  dependents  while 
the  prisoner  was  serving  his  term  inside,  and  to  the  Province  which  is  saved 
almost  the  whole  cost  of  guarding,  housing  and  feeding  him.  The  cost  of  each 
prisoner  inside  the  reformatory  is  about  $400  a  year.  The  full  cost  of  each 
prisoner  who  was  granted  a  permit  in  the  past  five  years  averages  less  than 
SI 5  a  year.  This,  in  a  permanent  system,  worked  in  conjunction  with  our 
parole  system,  need  ne\'er  amount  to  over  S60  a  year.  It  might  be  considerably 
less  than  that  figure. 

SOME  COMMENTS  RECEIVED 

Naturally  through  the  five  years  of  the  system  there  has  been  some  adverse 
criticisms  of  the  system  or  its  administrator.  It  has  been  called  a  piece  of  senti- 
mentality and  a  menace  to  public  order  and  the  commissioner  has  been  personally 
characterized  as  guilty  of  heartlessness  or  poor  judgment  or  favouritism  because 
of  his  decisions,  but  the  attitude  of  practically  all  who  have  come  into  close 
contact  with  the  system  is  fa\-ourable.     Out  of  many  hundreds  of  letters  the 

following  might  be  quoted. 

■\ 

A  wife  and  mother  writes: 

"My  five  little  children  and  me  were  ready  to  give  up.  We  were  living  in  one  room  on 
charity.  My  man  was  always  a  good  husband  and  father  to  us.  Allowing  him  to  get  out  to  help 
us  has  saved  our  lives." 

A  chief  constable  writes: 

"Since  the  Extra  Mural  Permit  System  has  been  in  vogue  I  have  watched  the  working  of  it 
ver>'  closely  and  have  had  the  opportunity  of  watching  a  lot  of  cases  in  this  district  as  deputy 
custodian  and  I  am  pleased  to  be  able  to  say  that  practically  every  case  while  under  Extra  Mural 
Permit  has  been  very  successful  indeed  in  this  locality.  I  have  no  hesitation  in  recommending 
the  work  done  in  connection  with  the  Extra  Mural  Permit." 

A  police  magistrate  writes: 

"I  am  a  great  believer  in  the  system.  Persons  who  break  the  law  should  be  made  to  work 
and  support  thernselves  and  their  dependents.  I  think  it  is  far  above  ordinary  parole  and  hope 
it  will  be  maintained.  I  see  no  reason  why  this  system  should  not  be  made  one  of  the  most 
powerful  instruments  in  the  reforn:ation  of  the  law  breaker.  I  think  the  saving  to  the  Province 
alone  warrants  its  continuation  although  that  is  a  small  part  of  the  benefit  we  have  received 
through  the  system.     It  is  a  wonderful  system." 

An  experienced  county  judge  states  that: 

"It  is  the  sanest  and  most  effective  system  I  know  of  in  connection  with  the  handling  of 
certain  offenders." 

A  justice  of  the  Supreme  Court,  in  approving  of  a  permit  being  granted  to 
one  who  had  received  from  him  a  well  deser\ed  sentence  of  two  years  less  one 
day  states  that  it  "is  a  most  excellent  system." 

The  custodians  in  charge  of  all  reformatories,  industrial  farms,  and  jails, 
continue  to  give  their  hearty  approval.  The  Canadian  Bar  Association  has  on 
two  occasions  commended  the  system  to  other  provinces.     The  Ontario  Board 


1926     FOR    EXTRA    MURAL    EMPLOYMENT 13 

of  Parole  strongly  approves  of  it.  The  sympathetic  attitude  of  the  Departments 
of  Justice  and  Inland  Revenue  have  been  demonstrated  in  many  specific  cases. 
The  following  letter  was  received  from  a  clergyman  who  has  acted  as  deputy 
custodian  for  the  commissioner  in  more  than  one  case. 

"Since  the  men  of  science  and  others  have  taken  away  from  us  leaders  of  youth  a  perfectly 
good  Hell,  those  dealing  with  the  weak-minded  and  low  principled  who  n  ake  up  our  criminal 
class  have  been  deprived  of  their  most  effecti\'e  weapons  and  placed  in  a  position  of  e-xtrene  and 
peculiar  difficulty. 

"Something  must  be  done  and  I  have  been  thinking  that  for  disciplinary  purposes  to  deal 
with  the  new  situation  the  state  must  step  in  with  punishn  ent  so  severe  and  so  certain  of  applica- 
tion that  justice  will  sit  enthroned  in  the  seat  vacated  temporarily  or  otherwise  by  his  Satanic 
Majesty.  I  am  convinced  that  to  save  society  we  must  create  an  idea  of  national  justice  that  is 
as  impersonal  and  as  vengeful  as  the  devil  himself.  This  is  no  new  or  original  idea  for  in  the 
highest  courts,  the  law  still  holds  that  the  sins  of  the  father  shall  be  visited  upon  the  children. 

At  the  san  e  tine  we  cannot  get  away  from  an  equally  powerfid  truth  that  mercy  and  forgi\-e- 
ness  are  frequenth"  refornati\e  agents.  Your  task  it  seems  to  n  e  is  the  proper  adjusting  of  these 
two  opposing  truths.  In  the  recent  cases  before  \"OU  in  which  I  was  associated  as  supplicant  the 
masterful  way  in  which  you  upheld  the  dignity,  power  and  terror  of  the  law  before  allowing  mercy 
to  intrude  her  presence  were  essential  factors  in  the,  so  far  at  least,  fortunate  outcome  of  these 
cases.     Wishing  you  continued  success  in  your  arduous  work." 

Because  of  the  criticisms  referred  to  above  which  have  reflected  upon  the 
fairness  of  the  commissioner  it  would  seem  fitting  to  quote  the  following  from  a 
letter  received  from  a  Crown  Attorney  of  long  experience. 

"I  want  to  convey  to  you  an  expression  of  my  sense  of  gratefulness  of  your  conduct  in  every 
instance  in  which  I  have  had  occasion  to  correspond  with  you.  It  is  reassuring  to  find  a  man 
occupying  an  official  position  such  as  yourself  so  anxious  and  careful  in  the  performance 
of  the  duties  pertaining  to  such  office." 

In  closing  I  should  state  that  I  have  received  your  request  that  I  continue 
to  administer  the  system.  In  spite  of  its  difficulties  referred  to  above  I  will 
be  glad  to  do  so  on  the  same  essential  conditions  as  in  the  past;  that  is,  the 
commissioner,  in  his  recommendations,  shall  be  trusted  by  the  council  and  in 
his  decisions  have  the  independence  of  a  judge  inside  the  law,  the  sentence  and 
the  regulations.  It  is  a  fascinating  work,  and  the  results  especially  in  the  relief 
of  suffering  to  the  innocent  dependents  of  many  prisoners,  as  well  as  the  re- 
establishment  of  many  offenders  as  citizens,  to  say  nothing  of  the  financial  results 
to  the  Province  and  municipalities,  fully  compensate  for  the  expenditure  of 
time  and  energy  involved.  I  am  confident  that  the  hundreds  of  public  and 
private  citizens  who  have  acted  as  deputy  custodians  will  feel  the  same    way. 

Alfred  E.  Lavell, 

Commissioner.

Fifty-eighth  Annual  Report 


OF  THE 


Inspector  of  Prisons  and  Public  Charities

Prisons  and  Reformatories 

OF  THE 

PROVINCE  OF  ONTARIO 

BEING  FOR  THE  YEAR  ENDING  31st  OCTOBER

INTRODUCTION 

In  presenting  the  58th  Annual  Report  of  the  Reformatories  and  Prisons  of 
Ontario  there  is  Httle  to  remark  in  the  way  of  either  increase  or  decrease  in 
population.  Compared  with  1924,  there  were  2,144  more  persons  sent  to  gaol 
in  1925,  or  a  total  of  18,023  persons,  and  this  will  explain  the  additional  cost  of 
gaol  maintenance,  amounting  to  §14,872.21.  The  daily  average  cost  per  prisoner 
is  also  increased  from  49  2/3  cents  to  52  1/7  cents  or  about  23^  cents  per  day. 

Crimes  against  public  order  increased  by  1,814  and  were  responsible  for 
over  50  per  cent,  of  the  gaol  population.  About  40  per  cent,  were  temperate 
and  60  per  cent,  intemperate.  There  were  about  ten  times  as  many  male  persons 
as  there  were  females  and  about  85  per  cent,  had  some  degree  of  education  and 
15  per  cent,  could  not  read  or  write,  which  may  be  accepted  as  evidence  that 
education  in  itself  is  not  a  saving  quality  for  human  frailties.  Notwithstanding 
all  the  agencies  in  active  operation  in  Toronto  for  the  reform  of  human  beings, 
this  city  sent  7,250  persons  to  gaol  in  1925,  or  over  40  per  cent,  of  the  commit- 
ments in  the  province.  The  crime  of  rape  has  always  remained  in  the  same  class 
as  murder  and  if  this  crime  is  to  be  penalized  by  the  death  of  the  criminal  it  will 
be  interesting  to  know  that  in  1925  over  seventy  persons  were  committed  for 
rape. 

It  is  apparent  from  the  foregoing  recital  that  whatever  else  may  be  stationary 
or  decreasing,  crime  is  a  progressive  factor  in  our  national  life.  It  has  come 
uninvited  and  remains  unwelcome.  Within  a  generation  it  has  wrought  many 
changes  in  all  departments, — in  business,  in  education,  in  the  church,  in  the 
courts,  in  society  and  in  family  life;  and  if  we  diligently  seek  for  its  cause  we  will 
probably  find  it  in  a  desire  for  material  gain  without  the  desire  to  honestly  work 
for  it.  Material  development  has  outstripped  the  development  of  moral  or 
spiritual  growth. 

In  business  the  old  problem  of  labour  and  capital  remains  unsolved  and 
lawlessness  and  crime  arise  therefrom,  as  well  as  from  the  conditions  of  un- 
employment and  idleness,  and  idleness  almost  invariably  leads  to  crime. 

Education  has  attacked  the  problem  with  its  Industrial  Schools,  its  Auxiliary 
Classes  and  its  Welfare  Boards,  but  even  in  the  world  intellectual  there  are 
many  school  problems  dealing  with  the  abnormal  boy  and  the  wayward  girl  that 
are  passed  on  to  the  common  gaol  for  solution. 

In  societ}*  there  is  an  e\er-increasing  list  of  social  agencies  to  restrain  and 
elevate  the  erring  individual,  but  w-ithout  discounting  their  value,  the  criminal 
still  flourishes  and  fills  our  penal  institutions. 

The  law  courts  have  been  extended  to  include  a  Juvenile  Court  and  a  semi- 
judicial  body  known  as  the  Parole  Board,  but  the  fact  remains  that  crime  con- 
tinues to  flourish  and  the  solution  is  not  yet  apparent.

Deputy  Provincial  Secretary.

1926 PRISONS  AND  REFORMATORIES 19 

THE  ONTARIO  REFORMATORY,  GUELPH,  CANADA 

Guelph,  Canada,  December  1st,  1925. 
Dear  Sir: — 

I  have  the  honour  to  present  herewith  the  statistical  report  of  the  custodial 
department  of  this  institution,  as  compiled  by  the  Clerk  of  Records. 

Among  the  prisoners  committed  each  year  to  the  Ontario  Reformatory, 
there  are  some,  who,  because  of  their  past  records  should  not  go  to  a  reformatory, 
nor  mix  with  first  offenders.  However,  we  are  required  to  take  them  as  far 
as  is  possible  in  one  institution,  classification  and  segregation  is  carried  out. 
In  spite  of  this  unwholesome  influence,  the  discipline  of  the  prison  body  was 
maintained  at  a  high  level.  Also,  we  believe  that,  inasmuch  as  we  know%  a 
large  percentage  of  the  discharges  went  back  to  civilian  life  resolved  to  be  good 
citizens,  and  we  hear  of  them  from  time  to  time  leading  honourable  lives,  that 
the  intended  purpose  of  the  institution  is  being  carried  into  effect. 

Many  of  the  men  at  the  time  of  admission,  because  of  bad  habits  and  vice, 
are  low  in  vitality  and  often  suffering  from  disease.  Most  of  these,  with  expert 
and  careful  medical  attention,  wholesome  food,  a  proper  amount  of  work  and 
regular  habits,  are  restored  to  vigorous  health.  You  will  note  there  were  two 
deaths  only  and  no  epidemics. 

Fortunately,  through  the  co-operation  of  the  Department,  there  have  been 
supplied  markets  for  all  the  goods  and  materials  we  could  produce.  Farm, 
abattoir,  cannery,  woollen  mill,  bed  factory,  wood  factory  and  the  lesser  indus- 
tries ran  to  almost  full  capacity.  There  was,  therefore,  no  lack  of  healthful 
work  for  the  inmates,  and  much  of  this  was  of  such  a  kind  as  to  send  the  discharged 
prisoner  out  better  equipped  to  face  life  anew  and  make  his  way  in  some  honour- 
able occupation. 

The  great  regret  is  that  it  is  necessary  to  carry  on  this  work  in  reformation 
and  re-establishment.  Proper  influences,  particularly  that  of  the  home  in  the 
period  of  life  when  character,  resolution  to  do  right  and  moral  stamina  are  most 
easily  brought  to  the  front,  would  have  kept  most  of  these  men  out  of  the 
institution  and  obviated  the  necessity  of  going  through  life  carrying  moral  scars. 

I' wish  to  take  this  opportunity  of  publicly  expressing  my  appreciation 
of  the  assistance  given  us  by  the  Salvation  Army,  the  Church  of  Our  Lady,  and 
the  Ministerial  Association  of  Guelph,  as  well  as  many  musical  organizations 
and  athletic  associations. 

May  I  also.  Sir,  express  to  you  and  the  other  able  ofhcers  of  your  Department 
and  this  institution  for  the  whole-hearted  co-operation  and  assistance  I  have 
received  from  you  all  during  the  year,  my  very  sincere  thanks  and  gratitude. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be.  Sir, 

Your  obedient  servant.

20 REPORT  OF No.  18 

INDUSTRIAL  FARM,  BURWASH,  ONTARIO 

February  12th,  1926. 
Dear  Sir: — 

In  going  through  the  enclosed  report  some  of  the  items  are  not  very  satis- 
factory to  myself.  We  have  been  dealing  with  these  matters  and  expect  to  show 
an  improvement  for  this  fiscal  year.  For  instance,  in  the  matter  of  clothing, 
we  have  quite  a  stock  on  hand,  and  expect  to  effect  quite  a  saving  in  this  direction 
during  the  year.  We  expect  also  to  show  a  much  better  balanced  record  from 
the  Farm. 

Building  and  Repairs. — In  the  building  and  engineering  branch  the 
expense  has  been  a  little  heavy;  this  is  due  to  the  w^ear  and  tear  of  frame  buildings 
and  the  more  than  ordinary  requirements  of  the  institution.  They  need  now  a 
new  ward  for  the  custody  of  prisoners  with  venereal  disease  so  that  they  can  be 
absolutely  separated  from  the  ordinary  prison  population. 

I  have  already  made  recommendations  for  a  T.B.  sanatarium  and  sent 
drawings  to  the  Department  showing  what  I  considered  necessary  in  No.  2 
Dormitory.  The  equipment  of  this  dormitory  is  altogether  too  limited,  both 
from  the  standpoint  of  ventilation  and  safe-custody,  and  I  strongly  recommend 
consideration  be  given  to  my  suggestions. 

It  will  be  of  interest  to  the  Department  to  know  that  our  industrial  plant 
in  part  consists  of: 

45  horses  valued  at $5,000 

278  cattle  valued  at 9,000 

161  sheep  valued  at 1,700 

Hogs  and  poultry  valued  at 2,500 

Implements  valued  at 4,500 

We  cut  lumber  of  all  kinds  during  the  year  valued  at  $21,000,  and  the 
total  value  of  farm  produce,  grain  and  vegetables,  amount  to  upwards  of  $30,000. 
These  figures  speak  for  themselves  and  is  an  evidence  of  what  can  be  done  by 
humane  and  well-directed  prison  work. 

If  we  had  more  accommodation  for  hogs,  we  could  make  this  branch  of  the 
farm  a  source  of  revenue.  I  think  this  accommodation  could  be  provided  for 
a  ^'ery  small  outlay  outside  of  the  lumber  required. 

Saw  Mill. — Sometime  ago  a  recommendation  was  sent  in  by  myself,  re 
the  condition  of  this  plant.  This  was  corroborated  by  a  representative  of 
Long  &  Co.,  Orillia.  I  am  still  very  much  of  the  opinion  that  the  saw  mill  is 
very  necessary  to  us.  We  have  seven  or  eight  years  cut  that  could  be  operated, 
without  any  movement  of  this  mill. 

Housing. — Re  farmlands.  I  would  recommend  that  you  transfer  the 
cottages  at  Farmlands  to  the  main  camp.  No.  2.  There  are  quite  a  number  of 
reasons  why  I  think  this  should  be  done,  and  from  a  custodial  point  of  view  it 
is  not  good.  It  also  entails  quite  a  lot  of  transportation  during  the  winter  months. 
These  cottages,  I  am  quite  sure,  can  be  moved  at  a  minimum  expense. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be,  Sir, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

J.  K.  Fairfield, 

Superintendent. 


1926 PRISONS  AND  REFORMATORIES 21 

INDUSTRIAL  FARM,  FORT  WILLIAM 

Fort  William,  Ontario,  December  2nd,  1925. 

I  have  the  honour  to  present  herewith  annual  custodial  statistical  report 
for  this  institution  for  the  year  ending  October  31st,  1925. 

You  will  note  that  our  population  for  1925  has  averaged  considerably  lower 
than  1924.  This  is,  I  think,  a  reflection  of  better  business  and  industrial  condi- 
tions in  this  area  and  consequently  more  w^ork  for  the  labouring  man. 

The  health  of  our  population  continues  good  and  we  have  had  no  epidemics 
or  serious  sickness  in  the  institution  during  the  year. 

The  discipline  in  this  institution  has  presented  no  difficulties  in  the  year 
just  concluded.  I  find  that  where  men  are  steadily  employed,  especially  at 
outside  work,  they  are  very  amenable  to  discipline. 

On  looking  over  our  register  for  the  year,  it  is  apparent  that  we  have  had  a 
good  many  young  boys  between  the  ages  of  sixteen  and  twenty  committed. 
Several  of  these  boys  have  been  returned  to  the  institution  for  a  second  term. 
One  often  wonders  if  a  protracted  sentence  in  an  institution  of  this  kind  is  the 
'  best  method  of  dealing  with  minor  second  offenders.  I  believe  a  judicious  use 
of  the  strap  and  a  short  sentence  in  cases  of  this  type  would  have  a  greater 
deterrent  and  reformative  effect. 

We  have  had  a  favourable  season  for  farm  work  and  have  harvested  good 
crops.  Approximately  thirty  acres  of  new  land  has  been  stumped  and  brought 
under  cultivation.  The  grounds  around  the  new  buildings  have  been  laid  out 
in  a  landscape  plan,  and  we  have  done  considerable  seeding  of  lawns  and  planting 
of  ornamental  shrubs. 

Our  second  annual  farmers'  field  day  and  picnic  was  held  in  August. 
Farmers  and  their  families  to  the  number  of  800  attended  from  all  over  the 
district.  The  forenoon  was  spent  in  looking  over  the  herd,  experimental,  and 
field  crops.     The  afternoon  was  given  over  to  competitive  games. 

I  desire  at  this  time  to  express  my  appreciation  of  the  courtesy  and  kindly 
services  of  the  officers  of  the  Department  and  the  loyal  and  sincere  co-operation 
of  the  members  of  our  staff  in  the  administration  of  this  institution.  The 
Salvation  Army  of  Fort  William  are  to  be  commended  for  their  splendid  social 
and  religious  work  in  the  institution  during  the  past  year. 

H.  M.  McElroy, 

Superintendent. 


TORONTO  MUNICIPAL  FARM 

Langstaff,  Ont.,  November  18th,  1925. 
A.  R.  McPherson,  Esq., 

Inspector  of  Prisons, 

Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto. 
Sir:— 

I  have  the  honoui  to  submit  herewith  the  eleventh  annual  report  of  the 
Industrial  Farm  at  Langstaff. 

During  the  year  2,748  males,  an  increase  of  898  over  the  previous  year, 
and  222  females,  an  increase  of  63  over  the  previous  year,  passed  through  the 
institution.  There  were  four  deaths,  all  of  them  aged.  Of  the  seven  attempted 
escapes  from  the  institution  during  the  year,    five  were  promptly  re-captured 


22 REPORT  OF No.  18 

and  punished  by  the  courts.  Of  the  other  two,  one  was  discovered  and  arrested 
in  Salt  Lake  City,  Utah,  U.S.A.,  but  owing  to  the  cost  of  returning  this  man 
for  trial,  and  his  short  time,  it  was  not  thought  advisable  to  bring  him  back. 
Only  one  of  the  seven  has  not  to  date  been  located. 

The  health  of  the  institution  so  far  as  epidemic  disease  is  concerned  has 
been  very  satisfactory,  and  social  diseases  are  still  declining,  the  percentage  of 
venereal  diseases  on  the  Men's  Farm  being  1.8,  while  on  the  Women's  Farm 
there  were  93  cases  of  syphilis  of  whom  42  had  double  infection,  and  in  addition 
there  were  20  other  cases  of  gonnorhoea,  making  a  total  of  113  individual  cases 
out  of  a  population  of  222,  which  is  slightly  over  50  per  cent.  This  information 
may  come  as  a  shock  to  the  public,  but  this  condition  has  been  steadily  mini- 
mized due  to  the  efficient  working  of  the  Act  for  the  Prevention  of  Venereal 
Diseases,  which  accounts  for  a  drop  from  90  per  cent,  to  50  per  cent,  of  infectious 
V.D.  cases,  or  40  per  cent,  of  clear  gain.  If  all  cases  could  be  treated  simul- 
taneously, venereal  disease  would  become  a  rarity,  or  disappear. 

The  discipline  of  this  institution  remains  excellent.  During  the  year  the 
number  of  cases  tried  in  the  orderly  room  were  32,  none  of  which  were  serious 
cases.  This  is  partly  due  to  this  institution  being  declared  an  Improved  Prison, 
under  the  Federal  Statute  and  good  conduct  time  being  granted  of  two  and 
one-half  days  per  month  for  good  conduct,  and  two  and  one-half  days  per  month 
for  application  to  work,  being  five  days  per  month  off  sentences  in  all. 

The  annual  report  of  the  farm  crop  attached  shows  a  very  productive  year, 
there  being  a  total  value  of  $22,865  of  field  crops,  $2,180.40  of  garden  produce, 
while  from  the  dairy,  sheep  and  hogs,  a  total  of  $11,307.85  was  received,  making 
a  total  of  $36,353.25. 

Recommendations. — I  have  the  honour  to  recommend  that  a  sun  room  be 
built  on  the  roof  of  the  south  verandah  of  No.  1  Building,  and  two  doorways 
cut  into  the  hospital  dormitory  on  the  same  floor.  The  new  ward  would  be 
about  12  feet  wide  by  55  feet  long  and  capable  of  holding  eleven  beds.  This 
would  be  a  tuberculosis  ward  and  become  a  portion  of  the  Farm  Hospital. 
This  would  take  care  of  the  present  need,  as  last  year  we  had  118  cases  of 
tuberculosis  admitted  to  the  Farm,  many  of  whom  had  to  be  sent  to  hospitals 
in  the  city  and  other  places. 

I  would  also  request  advance  orders  for  certain  garden  produce  which  could 
be  raised  here  to  supply  other  institutions  under  the  Department.  The  advance 
order  being  useful  to  us  simply  that  if  a  market  developed  we  would  try  to  grow 
produce  to  supply  it.  On  several  occasions  produce  grown  has  been  used  to 
feed  hogs  because  no  market  developed.  This  institution  in  turn  could  take 
from  Guelph  abattoir,  meat,  bacon,  etc.,  and  if  this  market  was  developed  both 
institutions  would  benefit. 

I  beg  permission  to  call  your  attention  to  the  fact  that  the  executives  of 
this  institution  are  not  paid  on  an  adequate  scale  to  other  institutions  in  the 
Province.  The  two  sergeants  (day  and  night)  being  on  the  same  basis  exactly 
as  the  guards  under  them,  while  other  executives  are  the  lowest  paid  of  any 
institution  in  the  Province.  This  is  due  to  dual  control  and  an  attempt  should 
be  made  to  have  this  corrected,  as  this  principle  is  not  conducive  to  the  main- 
tenance of  good  discipline. 

This  institution,  unlike  Burwash,  Fort  William  and  Guelph,  does  not  seem 
to  come  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Ontario  Civil  Service  Commission  for 
paying  retiring  allowances.  There  is  no  principle  established  on  which  an  aged 
employee  can  be  retired  after  many  years  of  service,  and  this  necessitates  keeping 
him  on  the  pay  roll  past  a  safe  period.     It  is  desired,  please,  to  bring  this  to  the 


1926 PRISONS  AND  REFORMATORIES 23 

attention  of  the  Civil  Ser^'ice  Commission  so  that  this  institution  may  co-ordinate 
with  other  Provincial  institutions  for  pay,  promotion  and  retiring  allowances. 

Attention  is  drawn  to  the  fact  in  some  of  our  Courts,  second,  third,  fourth 
and  fifth  offences  of  the  same  nature  should  not  be  punished  on  the  minimum 
basis  but  on  a  steadliy  increasing  plan  to  form  some  basis  of  cure.  We  can  point 
to  many  people  who  had  ten  or  more  convictions  for  drunkenness  in  a  year  and 
whose  maximum  punishment  each  time  was  ten  days.  This  is  not  reformative 
in  any  sense  of  the  word. 

In  conclusion  permit  me,  Sir,  to  thank  you  and  other  officers  of  your 
Department  for  the  kindly  consideration  shown  me  at  all  times.  I  also  wish  to 
call  your  attention  to  the  names  of  some  of  those  earnest  workers  who  have 
helped  the  institution  and  inmates  to  a  better  understanding  by  their  untiring 
efforts;  among  these  I  would  mention  Canon  Davidson,  Church  of  England, 
Adjt.  Moat  and  Captain  J.  A.  McElhiney  of  the  Salvation  Army,  Mr.  Dutton 
and  co-workers  of  the  Christian  Science  Church,  Mr.  Fred  Graham  of  the 
Y.M.C.A.,  and  many  others  who  have  assisted  in  entertainment  and  sports. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be,  Sir, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

W.  J.  MORRISON  (Major), 

Superintendent . 


MERCER  REFORMATORY 

Toronto,  December  9,  1925. 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  the  annual  report  of  the  Andrew  Mercer 
Reformatory-  for  the  year  ending  October  31st,  1925. 

Permit  me  to  draw  your  attention  to  the  statistics  showing  the  large  number 
(129)  released  on  expiration  of  sentence. 

It  should  be  remembered  that  these  129  discharged  inmates  receive  on  release 
practically  no  supervision,  and  are  often  needing  the  supervision  even  more  than 
those  paroled  since  they  are  usually  of  that  type  of  mental  deficient  for  whom 
there  seems  no  custodial  care  in  the  Province  of  Ontario  except  in  our  gaols  and 
the  Reformatory.  They  are  committed  for  breach  of  the  Venereal  Disease  Act; 
as  vagrants  or  prostitutes;  and  occasionally  as  keepers  of  houses  of  ill-fame. 
A  few  of  these  129  are  those  who  have  been  detained  beyond  the  term  of  sentence 
for  the  protection  of  society  conformable  to  the  Act  respecting  the  detention  of 
prisoners  suffering  from  certain  diseases. 

While  there  has  been  a  wider  adoption  of  the  indeterminate  sentence,  I 
regret  to  report  that  we  still  have  inmates  sent  for  short  terms.  There  were 
53  with  sentences  ranging  from  three  months  to  nine  months,  as  follows: 

11  for  three  months. 

1  for  four     months. 

2  for  five      months. 
34  for  six       months. 

1  for  eight  months. 
4  for  nine    months. 

This  type  of  sentence  gives  us  no  opportunity  of  really  helping  the  girl. 
So  far  as  the  reformation  is  concerned  the  best  we  can  do  is  to  clean  and  heal 


24 REPORT  OF No.  18 

her  body.     There  is  little  hope  that  she  will  in  so  short  a  time  break  away  from 
her  evil  habits.     Those  sentenced  for  a  longer  definite  period  are: 

21  for  one  year. 
4  for  eighteen  months. 
1  for  twenty-three  months. 
4  for  two  years. 

The  above  are  all  definite  sentences,  the  remaining  113  being  given  the 
indeterminate  sentence,  in  many  variations. 

Illustrating  the  fact  that  every  year  our  population  embraces  younger 
individuals,  it  might  be  interesting  to  give  a  few  figures  showing  the  ages  of  those 
received  during  the  past  year: 

56  are  in  their  teens. 

84  between  the  ages  inclusive  of  20  to  30. 
42  between  the  ages  inclusive  of  31  to  40. 
10  between  the  ages  inclusive  of  41  to  50. 
4  over  50. 

These  figures  show  more  than  three  fourths  of  the  entrants  are  under 
30  years  of  age. 

Extensive  repairs  begun  in  the  Spring  are  still  incomplete,  but  so  far  as 
they  are  advanced,  promise  greater  safety  and  better  equipment.  The  building 
of  a  fire  escape  of  the  most  modern  type  within  the  walls  of  the  institution 
providing  egress  from  every  floor,  has  been  a  big  undertaking.  Although  the 
institution  has  been  permeated  with  lime  dust  for  so  many  months,  there  will 
be  compensation  in  the  knowledge  of  our  protection  and  safety  in  case  of  fire. 
With  steamfitters,  plumbers,  plasterers,  masons  and  carpenters  in  our  midst, 
living  has  not  been  pleasant  in  the  institution,  but  we  have  managed  to  carry 
on  and  are  hoping  for  quieter  times  there  soon  and  more  comfortable  accommo- 
dation. 

Friends  of  the  institution  have  been  thoughtful  in  giving  entertainments 
and  treats  to  the  inmates  during  the  year. 

A  keen  personal  loss  to  all  in  the  institution  has  been  the  death  of  Mr. 
Hamilton  Cassells.  This  coming  Christmas  the  institution  will  miss  the 
cheerful  visit,  the  thoughtful  and  generous  consideration  of  the  constant  and 
faithful  friend  not  only  to  this  institution  but  to  all  engaged  in  similar  work. 
During  the  twenty-four  years  of  my  superintendency,  Mr.  Cassells  has  greeted 
us  all  on  Christmas  morning  bringing  good  wishes  and  encouraging  all — inmates 
and  staff — to  do  their  utmost  in  the  service  of  God. 

I  have  the  honour  to  be,  Sir, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

Emma  O'Sullivan, 

Superintendent.

REPORT  OF  THE  SALVATION  ARMY 

The  work  of  the  Salvation  Army  as  directed  from  Toronto  includes  services 
at  Toronto  Jail  and  at  all  the  penal  institutions  in  or  near  Toronto,  as  well  as 
Guelph  Reformatory,  the  Industrial  Farm  at  Burwash  and  Kingston  Peniten- 
tiary. The  Superintendents  of  all  these  institutions  have  frequently  referred 
with  gratitude  and  satisfaction  to  the  self-denying  devotion  of  the  Army  Officers. 
As  a  Department  we  have  direct  knowledge  of  the  value  of  the  Salvation  Army 
and  of  their  timely  service  in  meeting  prisoners  upon  their  discharge  from  our 
institutions,  supplying  them  with  homes,  obtaining  work  for  them,  and  speaking 
an  encouragingword.  Not  only  that,  but  while  prisoners  are  in  our  institutions, 
sent  there  by  the  Courts,  the  Salvation  Army  is  frequently  the  main  support  of 
their  families,  so  that  the  funds  supplied  by  the  Province  and  paid  to  the  Army 
is  distributed  so  that  the  best  results  are  obtained,  not  only  by  individuals  but 
by  society.  The  accompanying  table  gives  a  brief  statement  of  their  financial 
operations  in  this  locality  for  the  past  year.

ONTARIO 


THIRTY-SECOND  ANNUAL  REPORT 

NEGLECTED  AND  DEPENDENT  CHILDREN 

OF  ONTARIO 


Toronto,  March  4th.  1926. 

The  number  of  children  in  the  Province  who  need  and  receive  the  assistance 
of  our  Children's  Aid  Societies  still  continues  to  be  large.  In  addition  to  o\er 
two  thousand  cases  of  social  adjustment,  a  total  of  977  children  were  made 
wards  of  these  Societies  by  order  of  the  courts  during  1925.  This  is  almost  up 
to  the  maximum  figure  furnished  by  the  more  than  thirty  years'  experience  of 
this  work  in  Ontario,  and  when  one  realizes  the  enormous  strides  in  public 
favour  which  have  been  made  during  that  time  by  child-helping  agencies,  the 
figures  are  impressive.  The  fact  is  that  the  Society  is  being  increasingly  recog- 
nized as  the  official  organization  for  receiving  and  placing  dependent  children; 
and  youthful  delinquents  are  now  frequently  cared  for  by  the  Society  instead 
of  being  sentenced  to  long  periods  of  institutional  confinement.  There  is  to-day 
no  work  of  public  philanthropy  which  receives  more  cordial  endorsement  from 
the  community  than  this  of  helping  the  under-pri\ileged  child,  and  yet,  after 
all  these  years,  there  is  still  much  to  be  done.  One  is  constantly  met  with  the 
statement  that  it  is  youth  in  their  teens  who  are  now  the  criminals  and  desper- 
adoes with  whom  the  forces  of  law  and  order  ha\e  to  deal.  It  is  somewhat 
difficult  to  assign  a  reason  for  the  continuance  and.  as  some  think,  increased 
volume  of  evil,  despite  increased  efforts  to  improve  social  conditions.  Some 
place  the  responsibility  upon  parents  who,  it  is  said,  more  lightly  regard  their 
duties  than  formerly;  others  say  that  there  is  a  re\olt  against  restraint  or 
restriction  on  the  part  of  the  younger  people;  and  again,  the  existence  of  evils 
which  all  deplore  is  ascribed  to  motor  cars,  moving  pictures  and  a  general  love 
of  luxury  and  pleasure;  an  insistence  upon  rights  and  an  ignoring  of  duties 
which  affects  all  classes.  Whatever  may  be  the  cause,  there  is  no  doubt  that 
a  great  change  has  taken  place  in  the  world.  We  are  travelling  faster  and,  if 
we  believe  in  progress,  we  must  believe  that  our  going  is  better — though  some 
are  doubtful.  An  outstanding  fact  is  that  there  is  to-day  a  greater  and  more 
general  interest  in  the  problems  of  humanity  than  e\'er  before.     There  are  now 


6 REPORT  OF  THE  SUPERIXTEXDENT No.  19 

many  organizations  of  a  social  and  fraternal  character  which  take  a  very  real 
interest  and  contribute  generously  of  their  funds  toward  the  betterment  of 
conditions  for  the  needy  and  distressed. 

This  work  for  children  offers  a  more  encouraging  field  than  any  other  charit- 
able labour  in  which  man  can  engage.  Practically  all  others  are  efforts  to  alle- 
viate conditions.  The  worker  among  children  looks  to  the  future  when  the 
boys  and  girls  will  be  better  citizens  by  reason  of  the  ministration  of  Children's 
Aid  Societies  and  similar  organizations. 

The  large  number  taking  part  as  officers  of  Children's  Aid  Societies — over 
fifteen  hundred — and  the  great  work  carried  on,  together  with  satisfactory 
financial  reports,  indicates  a  splendid  interest  in  child-welfare  in  all  parts  of  the 
Province.

NEGLECTED  AND  DEPENDENT  CHILDREN 


CHILDREN  PROVIDED  FOR 


Since  the  first  organization  of  child  protection  work  in  1893,  the  number 
of  children  made  wards  to  date  is  25,748. 

Following  is  the  number  made  wards  in  recent  \-ears: 


1918 94S 

1919 1,004 

1920 811 

1921 936 


1922 790 

1923 786 

1924 773 

1925 977 


Of  the  number  made  wards  of  the  Societies  by  order  of  the  Courts  during 
the  year  1925,  796  were  Protestant  and  181  were  Roman  Catholic. 

Protestant  children  visited  and  reported  upon  during  1925 5,622 

Catholic  children  visited  and  reported  upon  during  1925 915 

These  figures  do  not  cover  repeated  visits  nor  do  they  represent  extra  visits 
paid  by  local  officials,  nor  the  large  correspondence  carried  on  from  day  to  day 
concerning  the  welfare  of  these  young  people.

SUPERVISIOX 

There  could  not  be  any  more  responsible  work  than  the  careful  but  friendly 
supervision  of  this  large  family  of  children  scattered  in  foster  homes  over  a 
radius  of  twelve  hundred  miles.  \'isiting  has  to  be  done  to  make  sure  that  the 
children  receive  fair  and  kindly  treatment,  and  at  the  same  time  due  considera- 
tion must  be  shown  to  foster  parents  who,  at  their  own  expense,  provide  these 
children  with  food,  clothing,  education  and  medical  attention.  There  is  a 
danger  that  in  our  zeal  for  the  better  care  of  the  child,  we  may  overlook  the 


1926 NEGLECTED  AND  DEPEXDEXT  CHILDREN 9 

valuable  service  gi\-en  to  the  community  by  foster  parents.  It  is  gratifying  to 
record  that  only  in  a  rare  instance  has  a  charge  of  ill-treatment  been  brought 
against  foster  parents  who  are  acting  directly  in  co-operation  with  this  office  or  the 
local  Children's  Aid  Society.  On  the  other  hand  the  visitors  speak  in  the  most 
flattering  terms  of  the  treatment  received  by  children  and  the  good  progress 
they  are  making. 

When  cases  of  ill-treatment  of  children  have  been  investigated,  it  has 
usually  been  made  clear  that  they  were  children  gi\en  away  by  parents  or 
irresponsible  parties, — the  circumstances  being  unknown  to  the  Society.  It  is 
for  this  reason  we  have  so  frequently  advocated  that  every  young  child  going 
to  the  home  of  other  than  blood  relations  should  be  on  record  for  purposes  of 
reasonable  supervision. 

To  those  unacquainted  with  procedure  it  might  be  stated  that  when  children 
are  first  placed  in  foster  homes  by  the  Society  full  particulars  are  recorded  with 
the  Provincial  Superintendent.  Entries  are  made  not  only  under  the  Society, 
but  also  under  the  county  in  which  the  home  is  situated.  Notice  is  then  sent 
to  the  local  Superintendent  for  subsequent  supervision.  Two  reports  of  visit 
are  forwarded  to  the  Central  Office  and  one  of  these  is  passed  on  to  the  Society 
holding  guardianship,  the  other  being  checked  and  filed  in  the  head  office.  In 
this  way  any  abuse  or  apparent  neglect  is  double  checked— by  the  Provincial 
Superintendent  and  also  by  the  Society  directly  concerned,  and  this  in  addition 
to  the  intervention  of  the  officer  actually  making  the  visit. 

TRUST  ACCOUNTS 

As  the  children  advance  in  years  the  Society  usually  arranges  to  open  an 
individual  bank  account  in  which  is  placed  any  surplus  wages  or  savings.  This 
money  is  paid  to  the  boy  or  girl  at  twenty-one,  or  possibly  earlier  if  any  real 
necessity  arises.  From  an  estimate  prepared  for  this  report,  the  total  amount 
held  in  trust  for  wards  is  approximately  $105,000. 

CHILDREN'S  SHELTERS 

There  are  now  forty-two  Children's  Shelters  in  Ontario.  In  twelve  counties 
there  is  no  special  Shelter,  the  children  being  boarded  in  approved  homes. 
Owing  to  the  ample  provision  now  made,  the  establishment  of  any  new  Shelters 
is  not  encouraged.  A  Shelter  cannot  well  exist  without  children  and  it  is  not 
desirable  that  children  should  be  kept  on  hand  simply  to  provide  occupation 
for  the  matron.  No  child  should  be  retained  longer  than  two  or  three  months, 
and  yet  we  have  instances  of  children  remaining  in  the  Shelter  several  years. 
There  are  560  children  in  these  Shelters,  and  of  this  number  165  children  are 
ready  and  waiting  for  foster  homes. 

COMPLETE  ORGAxNIZATION 

There  are  sixty  organized  Children's  Aid  Societies  in  Ontario,  and  with  few 
exceptions  they  have  jurisdiction  throughout  the  county  in  which  they  are 
located.  The  entire  province,  even  the  remote  northern  points,  is  now  well 
organized  and  a  work  of  wide  and  diversified  interest  is  carried  on  touchmg 
every  phase  of  human  relationship.  Even  a  brief  record  of  the  activities  of  the 
Societies  would  take  up  many  pages,  and  we  must  be  content  with  a  financial 
review  and  a  list  of  the  principal  officials  engaged  in  the  work.

tions, philanthropic  and  municipal,  for  the  carrying  on  of  the  work,  were  as 
follows : — 

Receipts  in  1924 $286,346  34

14  REPORT  OF  THE  SUPERIXTEXDEXT        Xo.  19 


LEGAL  ADOPTION  ACT.  1921 


Pre\"'u>us  to  the  placing  of  this  Act  on  the  Statutes,  the  adoption  of  a  child 
was  surrotnided  by  a  certain  amount  of  uncertainty  and  foster  parents  could 
never  be  sure  whether  they  had  legal  guardianship  or  not.  It  was  to  remove 
uncertainty  that  this  Act  was  passed.  To-day  the  foster  parents  can  make 
application  to  the  Provincial  Officer  for  the  legal  adoption  of  a  child.  When  it 
is  made  quite  clear  that  the  foster  parents  are  fit  and  proper  persons  to  have  the 
direct  care  and  upbringing  of  the  child,  and  there  is  no  legal  impediment,  the 
Provincial  Officer  issues  a  certificate  which,  with  all  the  documents  in  the  case 
is  submitted  to  the  County  Judge  for  his  final  approval.  The  benefits  following 
the  adoption  of  these  little  ones  is  well  exemplified  in  the  statement  of  a  foster 
parent — "There  is  real  jo\-  and  happiness  in  our  home  now." 

OxE  Thousand  Applications 

During  the  year  1925.  we  received  1.047  applications  for  the  legal  adoption 
of  children.  Of  these.  663  orders  for  adoption  were  signed,  being  an  increase 
of  114  over  the  previous  year.

CHILDREN  OF   UNMARRIED   PARENTS'  ACT 


IXVESTIGATIOXS 

(a)  Cases  outside   Toronto: 

During  the  tiscal  year  ending  October  31st,  1925,  1.347  cases  have  been 
dealt  with  under  the  Act,  an  increase  of  142  over  those  of  the  previous  year. 
Toronto,  Hamilton,  London.  Kingston  and  Ottawa  reported  722  of  this  number, 
indicating  the  percentage  drifting  to  the  larger  centres  of  population  where  the 
unmarried  mother  finds  comparative  freedom  from  publicity. 

Throughout  the  province  the  local  officers  of  the  Children's  Aid  Society  are 
conducting  the  investigations  under  the  supervision  of  the  Provincial  Officer. 
We  have  fifty-three  of  these  officers,  one  of  whom  is  located  in  each  district  and 
county  town.  Although  often  handicapped  by  local  weather  conditions  and 
the  distances  to  be  travelled,  the  majority  of  our  officers  are  doing  a  splendid 
work  and  becoming  more  and  more  expert  in  operations  under  the  Act.  Excel- 
lent service  continues  to  be  rendered  by  the  maternity  homes  where  the  mothers 
are  referred  for  care  before  and  after  the  birth  of  the  child.  One  or  more  of 
these  homes  is  located  in  each  large  city  of  the  province  and  serves  the  surround- 
ing locality  by  providing  accommodation  for  the  prospective  mother  at  a  critical 
period. 

(b)  Toronto  Cases: 

Toronto  investigations  are  still  carried  on  by  the  Provincial  Officer,  and  this 
year  numbered  515.  Here,  in  addition  to  the  regular  maternity  institutions 
affiliated  with  the  different  religious  denominations,  we  also  have  the  assistance 
and  co-operation  of  a  large  and  well-organized  body  of  social  workers.  In 
September  last,  as  the  result  of  a  social  survey,  the  Neighbourhood  Workers' 
Association  transferred  the  unmarried  mothers  branch  of  its  activities  to  the 
Infants'  Home,  with  whom  we  are  now  working  harmoniously  along  similar  lines. 

We  have  continued  to  report  our  cases  to  the  Social  Service  Exchange. 
This  organization  advises  us  what  social  agencies  are  already  interested  and 
overlapping  is  thus  prevented. 

(c)  Cases  outside  Ontario: 

As  a  number  of  the  men  accused  evade  their  responsibilities  by  getting  away 
from  the  jurisdiction  of  the  province,  we  have  continued  to  work  with  outside 
social  agencies.  These  men  frequently  go  to  the  Western  Provinces  and  to 
Quebec,  and  we  have  found  the  organizations  of  these  provinces  very  co-opera- 
tive. The  majority,  however,  drift  to  the  States,  particularly  Detroit  and 
Buffalo,  where  the  social  workers,  both  Catholic  and  Protestant,  have  shown 
tireless  energy  in  locating  the  men  and  reporting  their  attitude  towards  settle- 
ment, frequently  securing  settlements  and  at  other  times  assisting  in  collections 
under  agreements  and  orders  made  in  Ontario.  Expert  assistance  has  also  been 
freely  given  by  the  social  organizations  of  other  cities  in  the  States  with  whom 
we  have  had  occasion  to  work. 


16    REPORT  OF  THE  SUPERINTENDENT No.  19 

Statistics 

Our  statistics  deal  with  nationalit>-,  religion,  occupation  and  other  facts 
relative  to  our  cases.  While  not  always  possible  to  get  complete  data,  schedule 
"A"  attached  gives  interesting  information. 


Disposal  of  Infants 

Of  the  year's  investigations,  857  children  were  reported  to  be  with  the 
mother  when  the  cases  were  being  dealt  with.  Wherexer  possible  we  try  to  keep 
the  mother  and  child  together  for  a  reasonable  period  after  birth,  and  indefinitely 
if  the  circumstances  w-arrant  it. 

Where  the  mother  is  unable  or  unwilling  to  keep  the  child,  an  effort  is  made 
to  find  a  free  foster  home,  either  in  the  city  or  county  where  the  mother  has 
residence.  Local  social  workers  and  the  Children's  Aid  Society  do  valuable  work 
in  finding  and  approving  such  foster  homes  where  the  children  are  placed  with  a 
view  to  adoption.  Legal  adoption  has  been  granted  in  105  of  these  cases  during 
the  year. 

Where  the  mother  wishes  to  keep  her  child,  but  owing  to  the  nature  of  her 
work  cannot  have  it  with  her,  boarding  homes  are  found.  Our  local  ofiicers  and 
the  social  organizations  of  Toronto  help  to  find  such  homes,  which  are  inspected 
and  approved  by  the  public  health  nurses.  The  boarding  home,  even  at  its  best, 
however,  is  not  considered  an  ideal  surrounding  for  the  child.  One  hundred 
and  four  children  ha\'e  been  so  placed  during  the  year. 

Where  the  mother  has  no  means  of  providing  for  the  child,  application  is 
made  to  have  it  committed  as  a  ward  of  the  City  or  County  Children's  Aid 
Societv.  If  considered  placeable  for  adoption,  an  effort  is  then  made  to  find  a 
foster  home  for  it.     One  hundred  and  forty-three  children  have  been  made  wards. 

The  deaths  occurred  of  fifty-fi\e  children  during  the  year.  An  effort  is 
made  in  each  case  to  secure  a  medical  certificate.  All  these  certificates  but  one 
ha\"e  shown  death  to  be  due  to  natural  causes.  In  the  one  instance,  it  was 
claimed  that  the  mother  had  thrown  the  baby  out  of  a  window  shortly  after 
birth.  An  inquest  was  held  and  responsibility  placed  on  the  mother  by  a  cor- 
oner's jur\-.  by  whom  she  was  later  acquitted  on  the  ground  of  mental 
derangement. 

Repeaters 

During  the  year.  147  mothers  have  come  under  this  heading.  Such  women 
are  usually  of  the  feebleminded  type  and  efforts  are  made  to  have  them  placed 
under  super\'ision.  or  deported  where  they  have  only  been  a  short  time  in  this 
country.  One  young  woman,  having  a  third  child,  was,  at  the  instance  of  the 
Provincial  Of^cer,  committed  to  a  custodial  institution. 


Settlements 

While  a  persistent  eftort  is  being  made  to  raise  the  amounts  payable  under 
agreements  and  court  orders,  little  change  has  taken  place  in  this  respect  during 
the  current  year.  This  is  largely  due  to  the  unemployment  situation  and  the 
fact  that  a  number  in  receipt  of  small  wages  ha\"e  others  dependent  upon  them 


1926 NEGLECTED  AND  DEPENDENT  CHILDREN 17 

for  support.  The  Act  does  not  contemplate  that  a  man's  living  expenses  shall 
be  taken  away,  or  that  his  wife  and  family  shall  suffer.  The  majority  of  weekly 
payments  under  agreements  and  court  orders  are  for  S3  and  S4  per  week,  the 
average  cash  settlement  running  from  S500  to  SI, 000. 

A  number  of  settlements  are  made  between  the  parties  without  any  agree- 
ments or  court  orders,  but  in  such  cases  they  do  not  have  the  protection  of  the 
Act,  and  frequently  wish  later  on  to  avail  themselves  of  its  privileges.  We  are 
advised  of  a  number  of  these. 

(a)  Agreements: 

If  the  alleged  father  admits  paternity  and  makes  an  adequate  offer,  he  may 
enter  into  an  agreement  with  the  Provincial  Officer:  240  of  such  agreements  have 
been  made  during  the  year,  or  thirty-eight  more  than  in  1924.  If  he  does  not 
admit  paternity  and  wishes  to  settle  the  case  out  of  court,  he  may  enter  into  an 
agreement  with  the  mother  or  any  other  person  in  regard  to  the  maintenance 
and  support  of  the  child,  such  agreement  requiring  the  Judge's  approval.  The 
Provincial  Officer  takes  no  responsibility  under  these  private  agreements,  ninety- 
eight  of  which  were  recorded  in  1925.  or  twenty-five  in  excess  of  the  previous  year. 

(b)  Orders: 

Where  the  young  woman  has  sufficient  corroboration  and  the  accused 
denies  paternity  and  refuses  to  settle,  an  affiliation  order  is  applied  for;  157 
such  orders  were  made  during  1925,  or  thirty-six  over  last  year's  figures.  Out- 
side Toronto  our  cases  are  heard  before  District  or  County  Court  Judges,  the 
Crown-Attorney  in  most  cases  acting  for  the  Provincial  Officer.  A  few  of  our 
local  officers  perform  this  work  without  legal  assistance.  In  Toronto,  the 
Juvenile  Court  Judge  hears  our  cases,  the  Assistant  Crown-Attorney  representing 
the  Department.  Ninety-seven  new  cases  were  heard  in  this  city  resulting  in 
sixty-two  orders.  These  orders  varied  from  S2  to  S5  per  week,  and  lump  sum 
settlements  from  S53  (expenses  where  the  child  was  dead)  to  $1,000. 

Appeals 

We  have  had  ten  new  appeals  this  year,  or  an  increase  of  four  over  those 
of  last  year.  Of  these,  six  were  dismissed,  two  new  trials  w-eer  granted,  one 
appeal  was  abandoned  and  a  S500  settlement  made,  and  one  is  still  pending. 
Of  the  two  appeals  not  heard  when  our  last  report  was  issued,  a  new  trial  was 
granted  in  one  instance  and  the  appeal  allowed  in  the  other.  The  Attorney- 
General's  Department  represents  the  Provincial  Officer  in  the  Appellate  Court. 

Collections 

The  total  receipts  of  the  Provincial  Officer  under  orders  and  agreements 
this  year  amounted  to  S86.105,  or  approximately  S12,800  more  than  in  1924. 
The  collection  and  disbursement  of  this  money  entails  an  elaborate  book-keeping 
and  follow-up  system.  Cheques  go  out  monthly  to  the  mother  or  whoever  is 
caring  for  the  child.  The  interviews  and  correspondence  in  this  branch  of  the 
work  are  very  heavy.  Schedule  "B"  gives  a  comparative  statement  of  receipts 
and  disbursements. 


18  REPORT  OF  THE  SUPERIXTEXDEXT Xo.  19 

Court  Actions  ox  Default 

Additional  court  work  follows  default  under  agreements  and  orders  by 
applications  for  affiliation  orders  and  shew-cause  summons,  respecti\'ely.  Such 
actions  are  brought  all  over  the  province  on  the  instructions  of  the  Provincial 
Officer  and  are  found  very  effective  in  aiding  collections.  As  the  procedure  is 
comparatively  simple,  our  local  officers  for  the  most  part  conduct  them  without 
legal  assistance. 

Where,  due  to  poverty  or  ill-health  or  some  other  \-alid  cause,  the  man  is 
unable  to  keep  up  his  payments,  an  adjustment  becomes  necessary  to  consider 
variations  or  reductions  in  agreements  and  orders.  The  Judge  alone  has  power 
to  vary  his  order,  but  the  Pro\"incial  Officer  is  in  a  position  to  support  or  oppose 
such  variation. 

A  Well  Defined  Policy 

As  the  number  of  cases  increase,  greater  efficiency  is  e\"idenced  in  the  work 
and  slowh'  but  surely  a  definite  policy  of  operation  is  being  evolved.  The 
Provincial  Officer  in  conducting  the  Toronto  investigations  is  constantly  in 
touch  with  the  actual  field  work  and  not  infrequently  changes  in  policy  are 
made  as  a  result  of  weak  points  coming  to  light. 

In  February,  1925,  a  printed  hand-book  of  instructions  was  issued  to  our 
local  officers  and  this  has  been  of  assistance  in  the  general  conduct  of  investiga- 
tions and  has  also  had  the  eftect  of  unifying  the  work  throughout  the  province. 

The  entire  operations  of  the  Act  continue  to  centre  around  the  child  in 
whose  interest  and  well-being  this  legislation  has  been  placed  on  the  statute 
books.

S REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF No.  20 

The  prescriptions  are  those  issued  by  physicians,  and  the  orders  include  orders  of  physicians, 
(for  office  use),  druggists,  dentists,  veterinarians,  holders  of  manufacturers'  permits,  hospitals 
churches,  etc. 

*The  statutory  reduction  to  30  per  month  was  made  effective  on  July  1st. 

Sales  of  Native  Wine 

The  number  of  permits  issued  during  the  year  was  49,  the  same  number  as 
for  the  previous  year. 

Manufacturers'  Permits 

Permits  issued  during  the  year  for  the  use  of  alcohol  and  other  liquors 
for  manufacturing  purposes  under  Section  121  of  the  Act,  numbered  402.  The 
•commodity  most  used  in  manufacturing  is  alcohol,  of  which  the  use  of  732,310 
gallons  of  standard  alcohol  65  overproof  was  permitted.  The  quantity  actually 
used  as  reported  by  permit-holders  during  the  year  was: 

In  gallons  of  standard  65  o.p.  (or  165  proof),  315,682. 
In  proof  gallons  (or  100  proof),  520,876. 

All  the  large  users  manufacture  in  bond,  the  alcohol  being  taken  out  of  bond 
and  mixed  for  manufacturing  purposes,  or  denatured,  in  the  presence  of  an 
ofifioer  of  the  Department  of  Customs  and  Excise  of  the  Dominion  of  Canada. 

Medicated  Wines 

The  Board's  Annual  Report  of  a  year  ago  made  mention  of  the  effects  of 
certain  amendments  to  the  Act  passed  in  1924  which  conferred  enlarged  power 
upon  the  Provincial  Department  of  Health  under  amended  Section  126.  These 
salutary  results  continue,  the  inflow  of  evasive  medicated  wines  from  neighbour- 
ing provinces  having  much  abated,  and  the  manufacture  of  such  in  our  own 
province  also  having  been  reduced  considerably.  There  is  room  for  doubt,  how- 
ever, as  to  some  preparations  still  on  the  market. 

There  is  possibly  a  legitimate  demand  for  medicated  wines.  The  Board's 
aim  is  not  to  prevent  sales  of  medicated  wines  which  are  honestly  compounded 
and  which  the  purchasers  honestly  procure  for  tonic  purposes;  its  aim  instead 
is  to  hinder  traffic  in  designedly  evasive  preparations. 

Preparations,  the  sale  of  which  is  banned  in  this  province  under  certificates 
issued  chiefly  within  the  last  two  years  by  the  Provincial  Department  of  Health,

Prices  of  Liquor 

There  are  few  complaints  about  the  prices  charged  for  liquor  by  the  Ontario 
Government  Dispensaries.  It  is  becoming  better  understood  that  the  chief 
factors  in  the  high  prices  of  liquor  are  the  heavy  duties  and  taxes  imposed  by 
the  Dominion  authorities.  These  high  duties  and  taxes  compel  the  fixing  of 
prices  of  liquors  at  such  levels  as  to  account  largely  for  the  moonshiner,  the 
compounder,  the  illicit  trafficker,  etc. 

The  dispensaries  last  year  paid  for  liquor  the  sum  of  $1,511,344.35,  and' 
paid  also  for  duties  and  taxes  upon  the  same  liquor  the  sum  of  $2,293,463.41  or 
$782,119.06  more  for  duties  and  taxes  than  for  the  liquor  itself. 

Law  Enforcement 

There  has  been  no  slackening  of  the  efforts  of  our  officers  to  thoroughly 
enforce  the  Ontario  Temperance  Act.  In  several  instances  where  local  cele- 
brations were  held  it  was  assumed  by  some  people  that  violations  of  the  law 
would  be  tolerated.  Prosecutions  followed,  and  it  was  made  clear  that  the  law 
must  be  respected  on  every  occasion  and  in  every  place. 


10 REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF No.  20 

Amendments  to  the  Act,  1924-5 

Amendments  to  the  Ontario  Temperance  Act,  passed  in  the  years  1924  and 
1925,  have  greatly  assisted  officers  in  enforcing  the  Act. 

The  new  definition  of  "druggist,"  and  other  amendments,  affecting  druggists 
made  it  possible  to  deal  effectively  with  druggists  who  were  flagrantly  trafficking 
in  liquor,  and  as  a  result,  such  trafficking  has  been  greatly  reduced,  much  to 
the  satisfaction  of  reputable  druggists  and  other  persons  who  desired  to  see  the 
law  enforced. 

Authority  for  arresting  without  warrant  is  made  applicable  to  persons 
committing  the  offence  of  having  liquor  upon  a  street,  highway  or  in  a  public 
place. 

The  increase  in  the  amount  of  the  penalty  payable  by  a  corporation,  which 
cannot  be  imprisoned,  is  proving  of  great  value. 

The  wide  powers  given  to  the  Provincial  Board  of  Health  have  made  it 
possible  to  deal  effectively  with  alcoholic  beverages  sold  as  patent  and  proprie- 
tary medicines. 

Prior  to  1925  the  prohibition  against  selling,  etc.,  was  against  a  person  who 
sold,  etc.,  by  himself,  his  clerk,  servant  or  agent,  but  it  did  not  state  that  the 
clerk,  servant  or  agent  should  be  liable.  The  amendment  of  last  Session  places 
liability  also  upon  the  clerk,  servant  or  agent  and  this  assists  in  bringing  punish- 
ment to  the  actual  wrong-doer. 

Another  amendment  takes  away  from  distillers  the  right  to  sell  alcohol  to 
wholesale  druggists.  Alcohol  is  now  purchased  from  the  Board  and  the  Board 
has,  therefore,  a  better  means  of  checking  the  quantities  obtained  and  sold  by 
druggists. 

Formerly  a  small  number  of  physicians  issued  excessive  numbers  of  prescrip- 
tions upon  druggists  and  the  Board  could  not  control  the  situation.  A  new 
section  gives  power  to  prohibit  a  druggist  from  selling  or  supplying  liquor  to 
any  person  on  the  written  prescription  of  the  physician  named  in  such  order. 

The  amendment  which  limits  to  thirty,  the  number  of  liquor  prescriptions 
upon  the  dispensaries,  which  a  medical  practitioner  may  issue  in  a  month,  makes 
a  valuable  change  in  the  law  and  greatly  simplifies  the  work  of  the  Board  in 
dealing  with  those  practitioners  who  issued  excessive  numbers  of  prescriptions. 

The  penalty  for  selling  and  keeping  for  sale  has  been  changed  so  as  to 
include  a  month's  imprisonment  in  every  case.  The  result  is  to  increase  the 
number  of  persons  imprisoned  and  to  decrease  the  amount  of  the  fines  imposed. 
Ultimately  the  result  should  be  to  make  trafficking  unpopular. 

Confiscation  of  Vehicles 

The  power  given  to  magistrates  to  confiscate  vehicles  used  in  transporting 
liquor  intended  for  sale  has  been  of  great  service.  The  following  table  gives 
particulars  as  to  confiscated  cars: 

1.  Number  of  cars  confiscated  to  the  end  of  1925 129 

2.  Number  of  cars  returned  to  owners  without  sale 22 

3.  Number  of  cars  retained  for  use  by  our  officers 12 

4.  Number  of  cars  sold 80 

5.  Amount  received  for  cars  sold $31,513.00 

6.  Average  price 393.  91 

7.  Number  of  liens  claimed 51 

8.  Number  of  liens  allowed 32

Sale  of  Non- Intoxicating  Liquors 

The  Act  of  last  session  made  provisions  for  the  sale  of  liquors  which  do  not 
contain  more  than  two  and  one-half  per  cent,  of  absolute  alcohol  and  pursuant 
thereto  the  following  liquor  permits  were  issued : 

Brewers 
Breweries     Warehouse       Hotel  Shop        Restaurant        Club        Steamship        Total 

28  253  1,535  1,224  673  182  10  3,905 

In  every  case  the  permit  limited  the  sale  to  "non-intoxicating  beverages." 


Appeals  for  Clemency 

There  were  681  appeals  for  clemency  considered  during  the  last  calendar 
year,  and  of  these  252  received  favourable  consideration  and  429  were  refused. 


Work  of  the  Board 

The  Board's  office  is  a  busy  one,  since  it  may  be  said  to  be  a  general  clearing- 
house with  respect  to  Ontario  Temperance  Act  administration,  which  touches  the 
life  of  the  people  at  many  points. 

The  Board  has  necessary  relations  with  the  medical,  pharmacal,  dental  and 
veterinarian  professions,  and  is  in  constant  contact  with  them,  as  well  as  with 
manufacturers  with  regard  to  manufacturers'  permits,  with  native  wineries  and 
their  permits,  and  with  hotel  men  with  regard  to  standard  hotel  licenses  and  other 
matters  relating  to  hotels.  Liquor  permits  imder  section  151  are  issued  from 
the  Board's  office,  also  first-aid  permits  under  Section  41  (4)  (a).  The  Ontario 
Governrrent  dispensaries  are  conducted  under  the  Board's  direction.  Copious 
reports  of  many  kinds  are  made  to  the  Board.  Conferences  and  correspondence 
with  officers  upon  law  violations  occur  constantly.  Interviews  on  many  matters 
require  to  be  accorded,  besides  which  there  is  much  general  correspondence. 

A  heavy  feature  of  the  Board's  work  is  that  relating  to  applications  for 
executive  clemency'  in  respect  of  convictions  for  breach  of  the  Ontario  Temper- 
ance Act,  the  Board's  function  being  to  gather  data  upon  each  case,  which 
involves  much  correspondence,  to  study  the  data,  this  often  including  a  perusal 
of  evidence,  and  submit  a  report  and  recommendation  to  the  Attorney-General, 
with  whom  the  decision  rests.  In  all,  681  appeals  for  clemency  were  considered 
and  reported,  or  an  average  of  more  than  two  a  day,  during  the  last  calendar 
year. 

Retirement  of  Mr.  Smith 

Mr.  George  T.  Smith,  who  had  given  faithful  and  efficient  service  as  a 
commissioner  since  the  formation  of  the  Board,  retired  during  the  month  of 
August  last.  He  served  the  Province  with  ability,  and  his  high  character,  his 
unselfish  nature  and  his  kindly  disposition  greatly  endeared  him  to  all  with  whom 
he  came  in  contact,  and  his  presence  is  greatly  missed. 


12 REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF No.  20 

Death  of  Former  Chairman 

We  desire  to  place  on  record  a  word  of  tribute  to  the  eminent  services  ren- 
dered to  the  people  of  Ontario  by  the  late  John  D.  Flavelle,  Chairman  of  this 
Board  for  the  first  seven  years  of  its  existence,  dating  from  May,  1915.  Mr. 
Flavelle's  death  last  summer  was  the  occasion  of  widespread  regret  and  of  many 
expressions  of  appreciation  of  his  nobilit}'  of  character  and  his  executive  capacity. 
As  an  incorruptible  and  able  public  servant,  the  late  Mr.  Flavelle  had  few  equals 
and  no  superiors. 

James  Hales, 

Clmirman.

24  REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF  No.  20 


ONTARIO  GOVERNMENT  DISPENSARIES 


GENERAL  MANAGER'S  REPORT 

Toronto,  January  20th,  1926. 

James  Hales,  Esq.,  K.C, 

Chairman,  Board  of  License  Commissioners  for  Ontario, 
71  Grenville  Street,  Toronto. 

Dear  Sir, — 

I  have  the  honour  to  present  my  annual  report  to  the  Board,  covering  the 
operations  of  the  Dispensaries  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  October  31st,  1925. 

General 

As  a  result  of  the  legislation  passed  by  the  Legislature  of  Ontario  at  the 
last  session,  making  thirty  the  maximum  number  of  prescriptions  which  a  physi- 
cian could  issue  on  the  dispensaries  in  a  single  month,  there  was  a  reduction  in 
the  number  of  prescriptions  and  requisitions  presented  at  the  dispensaries  during 
the  last  four  months  of  the  year,  with  a  consequent  falling  off  in  receipts.  On 
the  other  hand,  during  the  same  period  our  sales  of  alcohol  were  increased,  due 
to  the  wholesale  druggists  having  been  prohibited  from  selling  alcohol  to  the 
retail  druggists,  as  a  result  of  an  amendment  made  to  the  Ontario  Temperance 
Act.  We  had  expected  a  much  greater  cut  in  the  volume  of  our  business  than 
resulted. 

r 
Public  Service 

We  adhered  to  our  policy  of  making  certain  if  at  all  possible,  that  the  mail 
orders,  a  very  large  part  of  our  business,  were  despatched  the  same  day  as 
received.  Mail  order  shipments,  and  we  have  this  year  included  in  same,  the 
shipments  made  by  stage  routes  as  well  as  by  the  Express  companies,  showed  an 
increase  of  11.63  per  cent.,  total  shipments  being  188,262.  The  monthly  and 
daily  averages  were  respectively,  15,688 /and  621.  The  amount  paid  in  express 
and  stage  charges  was  $109,570.18,  an  increase  of  6.76  per  cent,  over  last  year. 
We  made,  in  addition,  518  express  shipments  to  hospitals,  universities,  and  gov- 
ernment institutions,  which  purchase  liquor  at  reduced  charges,  but  which  pay 
the  express  charges  on  same.  In  the  cities  where  dispensaries  are  located  free 
delivery  service  by  auto  truck  was  continued. 

Employees 

In  all  the  branches  of  our  work  efficient  service  was  rendered  by  the  em- 
ployees, a  condition  of  affairs  in  which  we  take  pride.  Very  few  temporary 
employees  were  taken  on  during  the  vacation  period,  and  even  though 
the  employees  were  kept  exceedingly  busy  during  the  period  in  question,  the 
service  never  suffered,  as  extra  efforts  were  put  forth  by  those  at  work.  The 
dispensaries  on  October  31st,  1925,  employed  one  hundred  and  forty-nine  persons, 
a  large  proportion  of  the  males  being  returned  soldiers.

Prices  of  Liquors 

No  changes  were  made  in  the  prices  of  our  Hquors  during  the  year.  The 
customs  and  excise  duties  remained  the  same  as  during  the  latter  portion  of  the 
previous  fiscal  year,  save  in  the  case  of  Spanish  wines,  which  now  enter  under 
the  intermediate  tarifif.  The  sale  of  Spanish  wines  is  almost  negligible,  con- 
sequently reduction  in  duty  was  of  little  importance  to  us.  As  criticisms  are 
sometimes  made  about  the  prices  of  liquors,  it  is  perhaps  well  to  point  out,  that 
during  the  fiscal  year  the  dispensaries  paid  to  the  Department  of  Customs  and 
Excise  directly,  or  indirectly  through  the  Canadian  distillers,  brewers  and  wine 
growers,  in  customs,  excise  and  sales  tax  the  sum  of  $2,285,815.73. 

Purchases 

Our  liquors  are  purchased  from  long-established  and  well-known  firms  and 
we  are  therefore  assured  that  only  first-class  articles  are  supplied.  Stocks  on 
hand,  valued  at  cost,  at  the  close  of  the  fiscal  year,  amounted  to  $742,396.24 
as  against  $888,097.98  at  the  same  date  last  year. 

Prescriptions  and  Requisitions 

The  total  number  of  prescriptions  and  requisitions  received  at  the  dis- 
pensaries was  830,111,  an  increase  of  17,611  compared  with  the  preceding  year. 
It  should  be  noted  that  the  increase  was  not  as  great  as  the  increase  shown  in 
our  report  of  last  year,  was  over  the  previous  year. 

Financial  Statement 

Sales.— The  total  sales  amounted  to  85,065,997.44  as  against  $5,028,747.03 
for  the  previous  twelve  months.  The  daily  average  was  $16,719.46.  The  increase 
is  to  be  accounted  for  by  the  increase  in  the  number  of  prescriptions  and  requisi- 
tions, and  by  the  increased  alcohol  business  done  during  the  latter  portion  of 
the  year.  Sales  showed  65%  imported  liquors  and  35%  domestic  by  value  and 
623^-^%  imported  and  373^%  domestic  by  gallonage,  compared  with  65%  im- 
ported and  35%  domestic  by  value,  and  60%  imported  and  40%  domestic  by 
gallonage,  during  the  year  ending  October  31st,  1924. 

Gross  Profits. — We  once  again  reduced  our  percentage  of  gross  profits- 
The  reduction  is  the  result  of  the  lowering  in  the  prices  on  the  1st  of  Januaryi 
1924;  whereas  during  the  months  of  November  and  December  of  the  previous 
jiscal  year  we  sold  the  liquors  at  the  higher  prices.  The  gross  profit  made  was 
26.10%,  or  including  hospital  sales,  25.98%.  In  1920,  the  gross  profit  was 
41.06%;  in  1921,  36.56%  ;  in  1922,  33.81%  ;  in  1923,  30.61%oandin  1924,  27.05%, 
but  the  figures  for  1920  and  1921  did  not  include  hospital  and  other  sales  by 
head  office,  which  would  have  reduced  the  percentage  slightly. 

Payments. — During  the  period  under  review  we  paid  to  the  Provincial 
Treasurer  the  sum  of  $900,000.00,  an  amount  in  excess  of  our  net  profits  as 
during  the  year  we  reduced  our  stocks.  Since  the  dispensaries  came  into  opera- 
tion we  have  paid  to  the  Provincial  Treasurer  a  total  sum  of  $4,250,000.00. 

Overhead.— The  percentage  of  overhead  expenses  was  9.48,  in  which  are 
included  discounts  to  druggists,  amounting  to  1.19,  and  mail  order  expense, 
including  prepaid  express  charges  amounted  to  2.80,  The  percentage  of  overhead 
was  slightly  reduced.

Breakages. — Interior  and  irrecoverable  breakage  was  .02%  of  the  sales, 
as  against  .04%  last  year.  The  low  percentage  of  the  breakage  we  feel  is  very 
noticeable;  and  we  have  been  able  to  arrive  at  the  figure  in  question,  as  a  result 
of  our  insistence  on  an  improvement  in  the  packing  of  our  imported  liquors.

Various  Departments 

Head  Office. — Through  the  various  branches  of  Head  Office,  practically 
every  transaction  carried  on  by  the  dispensaries  passed ;  and  the  same  high 
standard  of  efficiency  was  maintained  as  in  past  years.  To  the  Board  are  for- 
warded reports  of  the  daily  sales  of  the  dispensaries,  a  monthly  statement  of  the 
stock  movement,  reports  of  the  two  inspectors  who  are  constantly  engaged  in 
inspecting  the  records  and  stocks  of  the  various  dispensaries,  and  the  monthly 
financial  statement. 

Censor's  Department. — This  department  does  a  tremendous  amount  of 
detail  work  and  is  almost  daily  furnishing  the  Board  with  reports  of  various 
kinds.  The  department  prepares  for  the  Board  every  month,  a  statement  con- 
taining the  number  of  prescriptions  issued  by  each  physician  on  the  dispensaries 
and  on  the  drug  stores  of  the  Province,  likewise  the  quantities  of  liquor  obtained 
on  requisitions  by  physicians  for  office  use,  by  dentists,  druggists,  veterinary 
surgeons,  manufacturers  and  hospitals.  It  has  continued  to  obtain  the  signatures 
of  all  the  new  graduates  from  the  various  colleges  who  are  entitled  to  prescribe 
or  obtain  liquor.  The  department  has  to  keep  in  close  touch  with  the  various 
governing  bodies  over  the  physicians,  dentists,  druggists  and  veterinary  surgeons, 
in  order  that  the  lists  supplied  to  the  dispensaries  shall  be  authentic. 

Central  Warehouse. — Last  year  this  very  busy  department  handled 
180,679  cases  of  liquor,  a  work  that  was  exceedingly  well  done.  The  utmost 
care  has  to  be  taken  in  the  weighing  in  of  the  cases,  particularly  those  arriving 
from  overseas,  in  order  that  all  breakage  and  pilferage  may  be  detected,  so  that 
the  Head  Office  shall  be  furnished  with  all  the  necessary  data  required  for  the 


1926 LICENSE  COMMISSIONERS 27 

instituting  of  claims  against  the  transportation  companies.  Whatever  bottling 
we  do,  very  small  in  proportion  to  the  volume  of  our  business,  is  done  by  central 
warehouse.  This  department  also  has  charge  of  the  confiscated  stock  and  the 
utmost  care  is  exercised  in  looking  over  the  stock  in  question,  in  fact,  a  most 
minute  examination  is  made  of  every  bottle,  barrel,  etc.,  received. 

Dispensaries. — We  feel  that  the  public  were  well  satisfied  with  the  service 
given,  as  practically  no  complaints  were  received,  whereas  on  the  other  hand, 
many  complimentary  remarks  were  extended,  particularly  with  respect  to  the 
prompt  despatch  of  mail  orders.  It  is,  perhaps  well  to  state  that  each  dispensary 
manager  furnishes  daily  to  Head  Office,  a  very  detailed  report  of  the  sales,  on 
which  appears  the  number  of  bottles  of  each  brand  sold. 

To  the  Board  of  License  Commissioners  we  desire  to  express  our  thanks  for 
much  assistance  freely  given.  From  Messrs.  Clarkson,  Gordon  and  Dilworth, 
our  auditors,  we  have  received  many  valuable  suggestions. 

Yours  very  truly,

ONTARIO  GOVERNMENT  DISPENSARIES 


REPORT  OF  AUDITORS 

Toronto,  January  11th,  1926. 

James  Hales,  Esq., 

Chairman,  Board  of  License  Commissioners  of  Ontario, 
25  Queen's  Park,  Toronto. 

Dear  Sir, — 

We  have  audited  the  books  and  accounts  of  the  Dispensaries,  Central  Office 
and  Central  Warehouse  for  the  year  ending  31st  October,  1925,  and  have  pre- 
pared the  enclosed  balance  sheet  and  schedules  relative  thereto,  which,  subject 
to  the  following  remarks,  exhibit  a  true  and  correct  view  of  the  position  of  the 
undertaking  on  31st  October,  1925,  and  a  correct  statement  of  the  earnings  for 
the  year. 

Re  report  in  detail  as  follows: 

BALANCE  SHEET 

Assets 

Real  Estate  and  Buildings,  $222,422.29. 

Of  this  amount  $34,441.37  represents  the  cost  of  the  land  at  the  rear  of 
154  Wellington  Street  W^est,  purchased  in  1922,  and  the  garage  building  erected 
thereon,  and  $205,000.00  the  cost  price  of  the  land  and  buildings  at  154  Welling- 
ton Street  West,  also  purchased  in  1922.  Depreciation  at  the  rate  of  5%  per 
annum  has  been  provided  on  the  cost  of  the  garage  building,  and  on  an  estimated 
value  of  $133,500.00  for  the  building  at  154  Wellington  Street  West,  making  a 
total  provision  for  depreciation  to  31st  October,  1925,  of  $17,019.08. 

We  have  not  on  this  occasion  examined  the  title  to  these  properties,  but  we 
saw  a  copy  of  the  title  deeds  at  the  time  of  purchase  certified  by  the  Department 
of  Public  Works  as  being  a  true  copy. 

Petty  cash $2,525  00 

Dominion  Bank,  Toronto 145,263  44 

$147,788  44 

We  verified  the  cash  at  Central  Office  and  at  Dispensaries  Nos.  1  and  2,  by 
actual  count  on  31st  October,  1925,  and  received  a  certificate  from  the  Branch 
Manager  of  each  dispensary  and  a  representative  from  Central  Office  as  to  the 
amounts  on  hand  at  the  dispensaries. 

The  bank  balances  are  in  agreement  with  certificates  from  your  bankers 
-after  allowing  for  outstanding  cheques. 

Accounts  receivable,  hospitals  and  other  institutions,  etc $8,367  42 

Freight  claims  and  duty  recoverable 876  97 

Accrued  bank  interest 1,992  55 

$11,236  94 


1926 LICENSE  COMMISSIONERS 29 

We  have  carefully  examined  the  accounts  which  consist  principally  of 
balances  owing  from  hospitals  and  other  institutions,  and  in  our  opinion,  these 
will  be  collected  without  appreciable  loss.  The  accrued  bank  interest  has  been 
compared  with  the  monthly  reports  from  your  bankers.  Sufficient  reserve  has 
been  provided  to  cover  any  loss  in  collection  of  freight  claims. 

Stcck  of  liquors  at  cost  price $742,396  24 

Stock  in  transit 164,195  89 

Yout  general  manager  has  certified  that  an  inventory  of  Central  Warehouse 
stock  was  taken  under  his  direction  as  follows: — 

Stock  actually  in  the  warehouse  on  2nd  Xoven^ber,  1925; 

Goods  in  bond  at  Toronto  on  3rd  November,  1925; 

Goods  in  bond  at  Hamilton  and  London  on  31st  October,  1925. 

He  further  certifies  that  proper  allowance  has  been  made  for  all  goods 
received  into  or  issued  out  of  stock  since  the  close  of  business  on  31st  October, 
1925,  thereby  bringing  the  stock  to  the  actual  goods  on  hand  at  that  date  amount- 
ing to  $507,850.46  and  that  these  stocks  are  priced  at  cost  excluding  unpaid  duty 
on  goods  still  in  bond,  which  amounted  at  the  date  of  the  balance  sheet  to 
8442,817.98. 

The  inventories  at  the  dispensaries  were  taken  by  the  managers  and  one 
of  the  Central  Office  staff,  and  together  with  the  Central  Warehouse  stock,  were 
checked  with  the  stock  ledgers  kept  at  the  Central  Office  and  found  to  be  in 
accordance  therewith.  Your  chief  stock  accountant  has  certified  that  he  has 
checked  the  costing,  extensions  and  additions  of  all  the  inventories,  and  has 
also  compared  the  quantities  with  the  stock  ledgers,  and  that  they  are  correct. 

Included  in  the  inventories  are  goods  in  transit,  amounting  to  8164,195.89, 
details  of  which  are  given  in  schedule  6.  As  these  stocks  are  purchased  f.o.b., 
shipping  point,  and  the  dispensaries  own  the  goods  from  the  date  of  shipment, 
they  are  included  in  the  inventories  at  cost  of  goods,  plus  ocean  freight  and  insur- 
ance, and  a  liability  set  up  for  the  unpaid  portion  of  the  purchase  price. 

Attached  hereto,  schedule  5,  is  a  statement  showing  the  value  of  the  stock 
on  hand,  and  of  the  furniture  and  fixtures  at  each  dispensary,  also  the  amount 
of  fire  and  other  insurance  carried. 

The  confiscated  stock  on  hand  at  Toronto,  31st  October,  1925,  amounting 
to  $25,138.30,  is  not  included  in  the  assets  as  the  dispensaries  only  handle  the 
stock  and  keep  the  records  on  behalf  of  the  Board  of  License  Commissioners, 
purchasing  from  the  Board  such  stock  as  they  require  from  time  to  time. 

Samples  of  liquor  which  your  general  manager  estimates  are  of  considerable 
value  are  not  included  in  the  assets,  but  he  informs  us  that  proper  record  is  kept 
of  all  samples  received  or  used. 

Fire,  riot  and  burglary  insurance  is  carried  on  confiscated  liquors  in  con- 
junction with  liquors,  etc.,  owned  by  the  Ontario  Government  Dispensaries  as 
shown  on  schedule  5. 

Cases,  barrels,  etc.,  on  hand $489  51 

Stationery  and  supplies 6,558  85 

The  chief  stock  accountant  certifies  that  stationery  and  supplies  on  hand 
priced  at  cost  amounted  to  $6,588.85.  A  reserve  has  been  provided  for  the 
whole  amount.  He  also  certifies  that  there  are  sufficient  empty  cases  and  other 
containers  on  hand  and  returnable  to  the  brewers  and  distillers  at  invoice  cost 
to  cover  the  total  value  of  the  cases  and  barrels. 


30 REPORT  OF  THE  BOARD  OF No.  20 

Liabilities 

Accounts  Payable,  $149,946.99. 

Your  accountant  has  certified  that  all  known  liabilities  to  31st  October, 
1925,  were  included  in  the  books  at  that  date. 

Contingent  Liabilities. 

The  invoice  cost  plus  freight,  duty  and  insurance  of  goods  ordered  but  not 
received  to  31st  October,  1925,  amounted  to  $24,820.00;  the  duty  payable  on 
stocks  in  bond  amounted  to  $442,817.98,  and  the  duty  and  inland  freight  on 
stocks  in  transit,  to  $342,751.94.  Your  general  manager  certified  that  these 
amounts  were  correct. 

Leases. 

Schedule  7  gives  a  description  of  the  various  premises  occupied  by  your 
dispensaries  under  leasehold. 

Reserve  for  Supplies  and  Contingencies,  $15,297.08. 

This  includes  a  reserve  for  the  total  mount  of  the  stationery  and  supplie  s 
and  sufficient  to  provide  for  any  losses  in  the  collection  of  the  claims  and  accounts 
receivable. 

Surplus,  %1,1 30,266.38 

This  is  the  balance  of  profits  made  since  the  dispensaries  were  opened  on 
24th  May,  1919,  after  paying  $4,250,000  to  the  Provincial  Treasurer  and  writing 
off  the  whole  of  the  machinery,  equipment  and  office  furniture,  and  alteration^ 
to  the  building  at  154  Wellington  Street  West. 

Details  of  the  profits  earned  for  the  year  ending  31st  October,  1925,  are 
shown  in  the  attached  schedules  1,  2  and  3.  W^e  have  to  report  on  the  principal 
items  as  follows: 

Profit  and  Loss  Account. — Schedule  1. 

This  schedule  shows  in  detail  the  operations  of  the  various  dispensaries. 
The  liquors  are  purchased  through  the  Central  Warehouse  and  are  charged  up 
to  the  various  dispensaries  at  cost. 

The  gross  profits  resulting  from  sales  at  dispensaries  amounted  to..  .         $1,308,796  93     26.10% 
From  this  must  be  deducted  the  following: 

Discount  on  sales  to  chemists  and  druggists.      $59,567  63  1.19% 

Mail  order  and  delivery  expenses 140,521  30  2.80% 

Operating  expense,  including  Central  Office 

and  Central  Warehouse  expense 275,470  96  5.49% 

475,559  89       9.48% 


Leaving  a  net  profit  on  operations  of  dispensaries  of $833,237  04     16.62% 

Your  policy  is  to  sell  the  liquors  at  the  same  price  throughout  the  Province 
and  to  pay  the  expense  of  special  packing  and  express  charges.  We  have  shown 
on  the  same  schedule  the  comparative  statements  of  the  total  business  done  by 
each  dispensary. 


1926 LICENSE  COMMISSIONERS 31 

The  percentage  of  gross  profits  earned  by  each  dispensary  were: 

No.  1 — Toronto 26 .  35  per  cent,  of  sales. 

"    2— Toronto 26.16 

"    3— Hamilton 25  .  68 

"    4— London 25 .  85 

"    5— Windsor 26. 13 

"    6— Kingston 25 .  60 

"    7— Ottawa 25 .  74 

"    8— Fort  William 26.85 

The  differences  are  accounted  for  by  the  varying  ratio  of  profits  on  the 
class  of  liquor  sold.  The  reductions  in  the  gross  profit  percentages  are  the  result 
of  the  price  reductions  which  were  made  during  the  year  ending  31st  October, 
1924,  and  which  have  been  in  effect  during  the  whole  of  the  year  just  ended. 

Operating  Expenses — Schedule  2. 

This  schedule  shows  details  of  the  various  expenses  together  with  the  per- 
centages that  these  expenses  bear  to  the  sales.  The  largest  item  consists  of 
salaries,  etc.,  $190,667.92,  being  approximately  3.80%  of  the  total  sales  of 
$5,014,742.09.  It  must,  however,  be  borne  in  mind  that  the  bulk  of  the  sales 
are  made  in  single  bottles  and  record  has  to  be  kept  of  every  bottle  at  the  Central 
Office.  The  amount  written  off  for  breakages  is  $1,281.17,  or  .02%  of  the  sales. 
Under  the  present  system  of  cost  records  it  is  the  only  item  of  stock  which 
cannot  be  checked,  and  should  be  subject  to  the  closest  supervision  by  the 
management. 

When  bulk  liquor  is  bottled  it  is  usually  found  that  small  overages,  or 
shortages  occur,  due  partly  to  the  fact  that  the  quantities  invoiced  in  bulk  vary 
slightly  from  the  actual  quantities  received,  and  perhaps  also  to  a  certain 
amount  of  wastage  in  bottling  through  dripping  and  other  causes. 

We  believe,  however,  that  the  bottling  is  carefully  done  and  supervised  and 
that  the  actual  number  of  bottles  reported  as  having  been  produced  are  taken 
into  the  stock  record,  but  think  it  well  to  draw  attention  to  these  variations  so 
that  you  may  be  familiar  with  the  circumstances. 

Net  Profit  and  Loss  Account — Schedule  3.    __ 

This  schedule  shows  the  total  sales  for  the  year,  including  sales  of  alcohol 
and  sales  to  hospitals,  and  miscellaneous  receipts,  and  the  net  profits  after 
charging  up  the  cost  of  alcohol  sold  and  liquors  sold  to  hospitals,  and  writing  off 
the  expenditure  on  machinery,  equipment,  furniture  and  alterations  to  building. 
The  percentage  of  net  profits  to  total  sales  was  16.71%. 

Yours  faithfully, 

Clarkson,  Gordon  &  Dilworth.

REPORT 

OF  THE 

Minister  of  Agriculture  for  Ontario 

1925 


To  His  Honour  Colonel  Henry  Cockshutt, 

Lieutenant-Governor  of  the  Province  of  Ontario. 

May  It  Please  Your  Honour: 

I  have  the  honour  to  submit  the  Annual  Report  of  this  Department  for  the 
fiscal  year  ending  October  31st,  1925. 

It  is  gratifying  to  report  that  the  year  has  witnessed  further  substantial 
progress  in  the  agricultural  industry.  For  some  years  past  the  adjustment  of 
agricultural  production  and  prices  has  been  one  of  the  acute  features  of  "after 
the  war"  conditions.  The  deflation  of  prices  not  only  occasioned  distress  to  those 
engaged  in  the  agricultural  industry  but  also  had  an  important  bearing  on  other 
phases  of  commercial  prosperity.  The  past  season,  while  marked  by  many 
unfavourable  features,  has,  on  the  whole,  proven  an  advance  over  previous 
years.  The  season  witnessed  the  finest  crops  which  Eastern  Ontario  has  produced 
in  possibly  twenty-five  years,  whereas  the  shortage  of  moisture  seriously  reduced 
crops  in  Western  Ontario.  The  returns  from  field  crops  were  therefore  slightly 
lower  than  the  previous  year,  but  the  better  prices  prevailing  for  live  stock 
products  more  than  offset  this  disadvantage.  The  figures  of  the  value  of 
agricultural  products  in  Ontario  for  the  years  1922  and  1925  are  given  below 
as  illustrating  the  definite  progress  towards  better  and  more  stable  conditions 
which  has  been  made: 

Field  crops 

Farm  animals 

Wool 

Dairy  products 

Fruits  and  vegetables 

Poultry  and  eggs 

Fur  farming 

Maple  products 

Tobacco 

Flax  fibre 

Clover  and  grass  seed 

Honey 

$394,653,000        $477,159,000 

Apart  from  the  work  of  the  Department,  it  may  be  mentioned  that  the 
Agricultural  Inquiry  Committee,  appointed  by  the  Legislature  at  a  previous 
session,  was  asked  to  continue  on  a  modified  scale  during  the  past  year.     They

REPORT  OF  No.  21 


devoted  attention  to  a  number  of  matters  of  practical  importance  to  the 
agricultural  industry  and  contemplate  submitting  a  further  report  to  the 
Legislature  at  its  next  session. 

As  a  result  of  the  consideration  given  by  the  Agricultural  Committee  of 
the  Legislature,  the  Department  during  the  past  year  gave  some  special 
attention  to  two  closely  related  subjects:  Eradication  of  Weeds,  and  Use  of 
Better  Seed.  It  is  recognized  that  the  weed  nuisance  is  assuming  serious 
proportions  and  it  was  felt  that  the  highways  are  a  source  by  which  these 
injurious  weed  seeds  are  spread.  Consequently  a  letter  was  addressed  by  the 
Minister  of  Agriculture  and  the  Minister  of  Highways  to  all  the  municipal 
councils  under  whose  jurisdiction  this  matter  rests.  Municipalities  were  urged 
to  have  the  weeds  destroyed  in  time  to  prevent  the  dissemination  of  seeds  and 
action  was  taken  along  these  lines  in  many  municipalities.  The  subject,  however, 
is  one  which  deserves  the  joint  interest  and  action  of  individuals  and  municipalities. 

As  to  the  use  of  better  seed,  it  is  recognized  that  seed-cleaning  equipment  is 
essential.  A  survey  was  made  by  the  Department  to  determine  the  number, 
kind  and  location  of  power-cleaning  plants  in  Ontario  at  the  present  time. 
A  total  of  207  machines  were  located,  144  in  Western  Ontario  and  63  in  Eastern 
and  Northern  Sections  of  the  Province.  Of  these,  98  were  reported  as  available 
to  farmers  in  their  communities  for  seed-cleaning  purposes,  21  were  reported  as 
not  being  available  and  as  to  the  remaining  88  no  information  on  this  point  was 
given.  It  is  felt  that  these  machines  could  be  used  to  a  greater  extent  than  at 
present  and  that  where  such  equipment  was  not  available  an  effort  should  be 
made  to  supply  other  equipment.  Existing  organizations  such  as  the  agricultural 
societies  might  be  used  for  this  purpose  or  groups  of  farmers'  organizations 
established  to  provide  the  necessary  equipment.  In  the  meantime  the  Depart- 
ment is  planning  to  equip  a  box  car  with  seed-cleaning  machinery  and  with  the 
co-operation  of  the  railways,  conduct  demonstrations  in  many  districts  throughout 
the  Province  during  the  coming  winter  or  early  spring. 

Detailed  information  as  to  the  work  of  the  Department  is  given  in  the 
following  pages,  under  the  heads  of  the  different  branches  under  which  the 
Department  is  organized.  It  is  safe  to  say  that  in  no  year  has  there  been  such  a 
large  amount  of  useful  and  effective  work  carried  out  and  it  is  also  gratifying  to 
note  the  ever-increasing  desire  to  improve  the  quality  of  the  products  of  the  farm. 


All  of  which  is  respectfully  submitted.

AXIIMAL  HUSBANDRY  AND  FARM  DEPARTMENT 

The  College  farm  produced  a  good  all-around  crop  in  1925.  Hay  was  light 
with  the  exception  of  alfalfa.  Spring  grains  were  light  in  straw  but  produced 
good  yields  of  grain.    Corn  was  a  bumper  crop  and  roots  were  above  average. 

Three  clydesdale  fillies  were  added  to  the  horse  stock  during  the  year  and 
one  foal  raised.  Excellent  horse  classes  are  now  available  in  both  clydesdales  and 
percherons.  Experimental  horse  work  was  continued  on  cost  of  maintenance  of 
work  horses. 

The  beef  cattle  herd  was  never  stronger  numerically  or  individually.  A  very 
successful  experiment  was  completed  in  producing  baby  beef  on  skim  milk,  and 
the  work  on  maintenance  costs  of  sires  and  females  of  different  ages  was  carried 
forward . 

The  dairy  herd  shows  more  quality  and  uniformity  than  ever,  and,  for  the 
first  time,  a  dairy  bull  calf  topped  the  annual  sale  at  $345.  Experimental  work 
has  been  carried  forward  on  cost  of  maintenance  and  production  and  some 
excellent  work  on  veal  is  being  carried  forward. 

The  flock  of  sheep  have  come  through  the  year  satisfactorily  and  stock  for 
class  room  was  never  better.  Production  and  maintenance  costs  were  further 
investigated. 

The  herds  of  hogs  gave  excellent  account  of  themselves  during  the  year 
and  paid  handsomely.  Maintenance  costs,  breed  and  type  tests,  feed  tests  and 
experiments  to  ascertain  the  causes  of  soft  bacon  have  been  carried  out  success- 
fully. 

Two  new  bulletins  were  published  during  the  year,  one  on  beef  cattle  (No. 
310)  and  one  on  dairy  cattle  (No.  311). 

The  annual  live  stock  sale  was  a  great  success  totalling  over  89,600. 
Steers  sold  as  high  as  22^  cents  per  pound. 


REPORT  OF  Xo.  21 


A  slaughter  house  and  cutting-room  was  equipped  during  the  year,  but  work 
in  it  has  not  been  started. 

The  college  judging  team  stood  eleventh  at  the  National  Dairy  Show  at 
Indianapolis  in  twenty-four  teams,  first  at  the  Royal  Agricultural  Winter  Fair, 
winning  the  new  Farmers'  Dairy  Trophy,  and  third  among  twenty-two  teams  at 
the  International,  where  they  had  high  man  with  the  record  score  of  924,  fourth 
man,  and  sixth  man,  and  were  first  in  horses,  second  in  cattle,  fifth  in  sheep  and 
twelfth  in  hogs,  and  had  high  man  in  horses  and  hogs. 

FIELD  HUSBANDRY  DEPARTMENT 

The  work  of  the  Field  Husbandry  Department,  including  lecturers,  field 
experiments,  plant  breeding,  co-operative  tests,  correspondence,  etc.,  has  been 
carried  out  with  a  good  deal  of  satisfaction  during  the  past  year. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  at  the  annual  meeting  of  the  Canadian  Seed 
Growers'  Association  held  at  Edmonton,  in  June,  1925,  the  two  varieties  of 
grain,  O.A.C.  No.  144  oats  and  O.A.C.  No.  211  soy  beans,  were  placed  on  the 
eligible  list  for  Canadian  registration.  These  were  the  only  two  varieties  through- 
out Canada  that  were  so  honoured  on  that  occasion.  They  were  both  originated 
at  this  college  and  are  leaders  in  their  respective  classes.  There  are  now  eight 
varieties  of  oats  eligible  for  registration  in  Canada  and  in  eight  years'  experiments 
at  Guelph  the  O.A.C.  No.  144  has  given  decidedly  the  highest  yields  per  acre  of 
these  varieties.  The  O.A.C.  No.  211  variety  of  soy  beans  is  the  only  variety  of 
this  class  which  can  be  registered.  It  is  a  high  yielder  of  both  fodder  and  of 
grain.    The  grain  is  beautiful  in  appearance  and  excellent  in  quality. 

At  the  Royal  Winter  Fair  in  Toronto  in  1925,  there  were  one  hundred  and 
fifty  entries  of  barley,  winter  wheat  and  late  oats,  including  about  a  score  of 
varieties.  It  is  worthy  of  note  that  three  varieties  originated  at  Guelph  received 
more  prizes  than  the  total  number  of  prizes  received  by  all  others  from  over 
Canada.  At  the  Provincial  Winter  Fair,  held  a  week  before  the  Royal,  the  sam.e 
three  varieties,  namely,  O.A.C.  No.  21  barley,  O.A.C.  No.  104  winter  wheat  and 
O.A.C.  No.  72  oats  captured  eighty  per  cent,  of  the  prizes  offered  in  these  open 
classes.  Each  of  these  varieties  is  showing  up  wonderfully  well  for  appearance 
and  for  excellent  quality  as  well  as  for  high  records  in  production. 

POULTRY  DEPARTMENT 

This  year  was  one  of  the  best  for  hatching  chicks.  Fewer  chicks  died  in  the 
shell  in  the  process  of  incubation  than  has  been  the  case  in  many  years.  The 
general  belief  is  that  the  season,  or  more  particularly  the  amount  of  sunshine, 
was  a  very  important  factor  in  increasing  the  percentage  hatch. 

A  number  of  feeding  trials  were  conducted  with  the  object  of  studying  feeds 
as  these  might  influence  the  hatching  power  of  eggs  in  particular  and  also  as 
these  feeds  might  influence  the  number  of  eggs  and  the  general  health  of  the  stock. 
The  results  so  far  suggest  that  a  combination  of  cod  liver  oil,  or  cod  liver  scrap, 
with  some  form  of  milk  appears  to  be  the  most  satisfactory.  About  one  to  t\\o 
per  cent,  of  cod  liver  oil  or  cod  liver  scrap  did  not  produce  as  good  results  when 
fed  with  beef  scrap  or  tankage,  as  they  did  with  milk.  Further  trials  are  under 
way. 

The  general  average  egg  production  was  roughly  the  same  as  other  years, 
or  about  160  eggs  per  bird.  More  attention  in  breeding  work  is  given  to  breed 
type  and  breed  colour  than  was  the  case  in  former  years. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 7 

An  attempt  was  made  this  season  to  hatch  and  rear  a  few  turkeys.  The  eggs 
were  hatched  in  an  incubator  and  the  poults  were  brooded  around  a  stove 
brooder.  These  birds  were  never  allowed  on  the  ground.  The  brooder  house 
floor  and  the  small  run  out  of  doors  were  of  cement.  The  turkeys  weigh  now, 
December  1st,  an  average  of  seventeen  pounds  each.  The  ration  for  these  birds 
contained,  roughly,  two  per  cent,  of  cod  oil.  It  is  interesting  to  note  that  turkeys 
eat  a  very  large  amount  of  green  feed.  Ten  turkeys,  in  September,  will  consume 
daily,  with  ease,  two  large  heads  of  cabbage. 

The  extension  work  grows  each  year.  There  is  more  demand  for  lectures, 
demonstrations,  flock  inspection,  judging  courses,  etc.,  each  year.  There  are 
two  hundred  and  eleven  breeding  stations,  with  over  fifteen  thousand  hens. 
The  department  supplies  over  eight  hundred  pedigreed  cockerels  to  these 
stations.  The  stations  supply  eggs  for  hatching  for  the  school  children.  Ten 
new  stations  were  opened  and  thirteen  were  closed. 

There  were  five  hundred  and  fifty-six  culling  demonstrations  conducted  at 
which  41,923  birds  were  handled,  of  which  15,378  were  considered  to  be  cull 
birds,  not  worthy  of  keeping  another  season.  For  the  first  time  a  number  of 
birds  were  bled,  or  blood-tested,  for  disease.  This  work  is  of  an  experimental 
nature. 

Considerable  work  was  done  with  culling  schools,  three  and  one  month  short 
courses,  also  special  lectures  to  poultry  associations,  judging  at  fairs,  and  exhibits 
and  lectures  on  live  stock  train. 


CHEMISTRY  DEPARTMENT 

In  addition  to  the  regular  class  work,  which  naturally  forms  the  major  part 
of  the  work  of  this  department,  and  the  chemical  examination  of  hundreds  of 
samples  of  miscellaneous  materials  for  correspondents,  the  members  of  the 
department  have  been  able  to  do  some  experimental  and  investigational  work. 

There  is  a  growing  appreciation  of  the  services  rendered  to  the  butter, 
cheese  and  ice  cream  manufacturers.  Their  problems  are  many  and  complex, 
for  they  have  to  deal  with  a  complex  and  changeable  material.  The  investiga- 
tions emphasize  the  need  of  more  scientific  accuracy  in  the  handling  of  milk  and 
its  products  if  the  best  results  are  to  be  obtained. 

The  work  in  connection  with  wheat  and  flour  has  been  continued  and  it  is 
gratifying  to  know  that  the  help  given  the  millers  and  bakers  in  the  past  has 
resulted  in  the  bread  and  cake  manufacturers  erecting  and  equipping  a  building 
to  be  used  by  this  department  as  a  school  of  instruction  for  the  bakers  of  the 
country. 

In  the  continued  study  of  the  soils  of  the  province,  the  department  has  been 
aided  by  grants  of  money  by  the  Dominion  Canners  and  the  Dominion  Sugar 
Co.,  which  has  made  it  possible  to  extend  the  fertilizer  experiments.  A  bulletin 
on  soil  acidity  and  liming  is  in  press  and  the  results  of  the  survey  of  the  soils  of 
Kent  County  and  the  Niagara  district  is  ready  for  the  printer.  Considerable 
data  has  been  gathered  from  experiments  with  various  fertilizer  materials  applied 
for  wheat,  potatoes,  sugar  beets,  peas  for  canning,  corn,  beans,  onions,  and  celery 
which  will  also  be  put  into  bulletin  form. 

An  effort  is  being  made  to  study  the  composition  of  fodder  plants,  root  crops, 
the  newer  materials  being  used  as  insecticides  and  fungicides  and  other  materials 
that  come  to  the  department  from  time  to  time. 


REPORT  OF  No.  21 


EXPERIMENTAL  WORK  IN  THE  DAIRY  DEPARTMENT 

1.  Sour  cream  was  neutralized  with  lime  to  one,  two  and  three  per  cent, 
acid  before  pasteurizing.  The  butter  scored  highest  and  kept  best  in  storage 
from  the  lots  reduced  to  one  per  cent.  acid. 

2.  Lots  of  butter  salted  with  an  imported  salt  were  compared  with  lots  of 
butter  having  a  Canadian  salt  added.  The  lots  having  imported  salt  scored 
highest  when  fresh,  but  lost  more  in  flavour  while  in  storage  as  compared  with  the 
lots  salted  with  Canadian  salt. 

3.  Pasteurized  milk  for  making  cheddar  cheese  produced  an  average  of 
4.24  pounds  more  cheese  per  1,000  pounds  milk,  as  compared  with  raw  milk,  but 
pasteurized  cheese  was  not  so  good  in  quality. 

4.  "Loaf,"  "process"  and  "baby"  cheddar  cheese  were  made  with  satis- 
factory results.  A  display  of  these  cheese  was  sent  to  the  Canadian  National 
Exhibition  for  the  Ontario  Department  of  Agriculture. 

5.  The  use  of  "egg  yolk  powder"  in  ice  cream  mixes  improved  the  whipping 
quality  of  the  mix  and  shortened  the  time  of  freezing,  but  did  not  show  a  constant 
improvement  in  the  quality  of  ice  cream. 

6.  Sterilizing  the  surface  of  a  market  milk  cooler  with  live  steam  before 
cooling  the  milk  reduced  the  average  bacterial  content  addition,  as  a  result  of 
cooling,  from  2,500  to  250  bacteria  per  c.c. 

7.  Customers  of  the  market  milk  branch  preferred  pasteurized  to  raw  milk, 
chiefly  because  the  pasteurized  milk  did  not  sour  so  readily  during  hot  weather. 

In  addition  to  the  foregoing,  the  dairy  department  co-operated  with  the 
chemistry  department  in  a  study  of  skim  milk  powders  for  bread  manufacture; 
with  the  poultry  and  animal  husbandry  departments  in  studies  of  animal  nutri- 
tion. 

ENTOMOLOGY  DEPARTMENT 

The  following  is  a  summarv  of  the  work  of  this  department  during  the  year 
1924-25:— 

1.  Teaching  and  correspondence. 

2.  Enlarging  and  classifying  the  collection  of  Ontario  insects. 

3.  Conducting  research  work  on  the  European  corn  borer  and  the  striped 
cucumber  bettle  as  major  projects,  and  on  the  onion  maggot,  squash  bug  and 
household  pests  as  minor  ones. 

4.  Extension  work, — 

(a)  Calling  the  attention  of  the  farmers  to  the  menace  of  the  corn  borer, 
familiarizing  them  with  the  methods  of  control  and  enlisting  their  co-operation 
in  putting  these  methods  into  practice  in  infested  areas. 

(b)  Addressing  public  meetings,  especially  on  corn  borer  and  spraying.  Over 
thirty  addresses  were  delivered. 

(c)  Organizing  the  spray  supervision  service,  training  the  supervisors  and 
overseeing  the  work  generally. 

(d)  Preparing  circulars  and  leaflets  and  supplying  the  press  from  time  to 
time  with  articles  on  insect  pests. 

(e)  Training  and  supervising  orchard  inspectors  in  the  Niagara  district. 

(f)  Answering  emergency  calls  for  help  wherever  there  were  special  insect 
problems  requiring  it. 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 9 

BOTANY  DEPARTMENT 

In  addition  to  the  regular  teaching  work  and  correspondence  of  the  depart- 
ment, the  following  investigation  and  extension  work  was  carried  on  during  the 
past  year: 

Co-operative  experiments  in  weed  eradication. 

Purity  tests  on  clover  and  grass  seeds  for  farmers  and  seedsmen. 

Investigation  into  the  cause  and  means  of  control  of  root  rot  of  canning 
peas.  Several  strains  of  canning  peas  have  been  selected  which  show  marked 
resistance  to  this  disease  and  appear  to  be  satisfactory  for  canning  purposes. 

Experiments  in  the  prevention  of  rhizoctonia  or  black  scurf  of  potatoes.  The 
results  of  these  experiments  this  year  indicate  that  while  rhizoctonia  may  be 
prevented  to  a  large  extent  by  the  use  of  strong  solutions  of  corrosive  sublimate, 
such  strong  solutions  have  a  tendency  to  retard  the  growth  of  the  potato  plants 
and  reduce  the  yield  of  marketable  tubers. 

Experiments  to  determine  the  distance  that  the  summer  spores  (conidia)  of 
the  fungus  which  causes  apple  scab  are  spread  from  diseased  trees. 

The  members  of  this  department  co-operated  with  the  fruit  branch  in  carry- 
ing on  the  spray  service  in  apple  orchards  throughout  the  province.  Mr.  Evans 
of  this  department  had  charge  of  this  work  in  Huron  County.  Most  satis- 
factory results  were  obtained  in  nearly  all  the  supervised  orchards. 

Experiments  concerning  the  effects  of  various  fungicides  in  the  control  of 
cereal  smuts.  The  so-called  dry  formaldehyde  treatment  again  this  year  proved 
most  effective  in  the  prevention  of  oat  smut. 

Special  investigations  into  the  plant  disease  problems  of  the  Essex  Peninsula 
were  carried  on  at  the  Ridgetown  Agricultural  Experiment  Station.  These 
included  work  with  beans  for  the  selection  of  varieties  resistant  to  mosaic  and 
anthracnose;  experiments  to  control  cucumber  anthracnose  in  greenhouses  by 
spraying,  and  experiments  for  the  control  of  onion  smut.  In  these  experiments 
formalin  of  the  strength  of  one  pint  to  sixteen  gallons  of  water,  and  applied  at  the 
rate  of  130  gallons  to  the  acre,  resulted  in  a  yield  of  560  bushels  per  acre.  The 
check  plot  with  no  treatment  yielded  198  bushels  per  acre. 

Experiments  to  test  the  effectiveness  of  Bordeaux  mixture  in  the  control  of 
blight  of  celery.  The  work  this  year  again  indicated  that  commercial  control 
could  be  obtained  by  frequent  and  thorough  spraying  with  Bordeaux. 

HORTICULTURE  DEPARTMENT 

A  great  deal  of  work  has  been  done  in  labelling  variety  specimens  on  the 
campus  and  throughout  the  grounds  so  that  visitors  can  easily  find  out  the 
names  of  the  particular  varieties.  This  is  a  work  which  is  necessary  on  account 
of  the  large  number  of  visitors.  A  considerable  number  of  new  varieties  have  been 
added  to  our  peony,  iris,  rose  and  gladiolus  collections.  These  trial  grounds  have 
proved  of  great  interest  to  visitors. 

In  the  orchard  several  seedlings  have  fruited  for  the  first  time,  some  of 
which  are  proving  interesting.  A  cross  which  seems  to  be  giving  excellent  results 
is  spy  and  Mcintosh.  All  of  the  newer  varieties  of  apples  and  small  fruits  have 
been  added  to  the  plantations  and  a  new  grape  plantation  has  been  started. 

APICULTURE  DEPARTMENT 

The  outside  work  of  the  department,  during  the  past  year,  has  consisted  of 
apiary  inspection,  registration  of  beekeepers,  extension  work  in  connection  with 
the  Ontario  Beekeepers'  Association  and  apiary  demonstrations. 


10 REPORT  OF No.  21 

The  usual  teaching  work  has  been  conducted  and  two  short  courses  were  held, 
one  in  January  and  one  in  June. 

During  the  year,  twenty-five  apiary  demonstrations  were  held  in  different 
parts  of  the  province. 

Members  of  the  department  also  attended  other  meetings  of  beekeepers  in 
connection  with  the  county  beekeepers'  associations. 

At  the  last  session  of  the  Legislature  an  Act  was  passed  requiring  the  regis- 
tration of  all  beekeepers  in  the  province.  Much  work  was  entailed  in  starting 
this  new  system  but  5,238  names  have  now  been  enrolled.  The  number  of  bee- 
keepers in  Ontario  must  be  considerably  larger  than  this  and  it  is  hoped  to 
complete  the  list  in  the  near  future.  This  registration  should  greatly  assist  in 
combating  foul-brood,  on  which  117  inspectors  were  employed  for  greater  or 
lesser  periods  during  the  season. 

BACTERIOLOGY  DEPARTMENT 

Five  thousand  five  hundred  and  eighty-four  legume  cultures  and  one 
thousand  and  twenty-one  lactic  cultures  were  prepared  and  sold  to  farmers  and 
dairymen  applying  for  them  yielding  a  revenue  of  $2,774.50. 

A  fourth  laboratory  analysis  and  field  test  of  the  commercial  product  known 
as  "Soilgro"  was  made  by  special  request.  The  results  of  this  test  tallied  with 
those  that  we  have  previously  reported  and  were  to  the  effect  that  this  product, 
which  retails  at  six  dollars  per  gallon,  is  of  no  benefit  to  crops  grown  on  ordinary 
soil. 

At  the  request  of  the  director  of  dairying,  we  continued  our  investigation 
of  the  yeast  and  mould  contamination  of  butter.  Eight  hundred  and  ninety-eight 
samples  of  butter  were  received  from  the  butter  grading  station  at  Toronto 
and  reported  on  as  to  their  yeast  and  mould  content. 

Numerous  samples  of  water,  milk,  soil,  foods  and  pathological  specimens  of 
plants  and  animals  were  received  for  examination  and  reported  on. 

Fire  blight  was  very  severe  in  apple  and  pear  orchards  in  some  districts. 
Demonstrations  of  the  best  methods  of  control  were  given  in  a  number  of  orchards. 

AGRICULTURAL  ECONOMICS  DEPARTMENT 

The  investigation  into  the  economics  of  creamery  operation  has  been  com- 
pleted and  a  publication  issued  which  has  met  with  favourable  comment  from 
butter  manufacturers  and  producers. 

The  field  work  on  the  marketing  of  live  stock  has  been  completed,  most  of 
the  report  has  been  written  and  the  transportation  and  market  sections  have 
been  given  some  publicity  in  the  agricultural  and  farm  weekly  press. 

In  the  market  milk  studies,  which  have  been  conducted  for  the  past  two 
years,  the  department  during  the  past  year  made  a  careful  and  sweeping  survey 
of  the  consumption  of  milk  in  cities,  data  being  obtained  from  thousands  of 
families  of  varying  purchasing  power.  This  illuminating  material,  along  with 
accurate  information  on  the  volume  and  disposal  of  the  seasonal  surplus  produc- 
tion, one  of  the  costly  features  of  the  milk  business,  will  be  included  in  a  full 
report  of  economics  of  the  distribution  of  fluid  milk  now  being  prepared. 

At  the  close  of  the  year  a  study  of  the  production  and  marketing  of  the 
tobacco  crop  was  inaugurated.  This  survey  may  be  of  value  to  the  farmers  of 
the  corn  belt,  with  whom  the  ravages  of  the  corn  borer  are  causing  reorganization 
of  the  cropping  systems  heretofore  followed. 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 1_1 

The  detailed  cost  programme  of  the  department  is  being  pushed  as  rapidly 
as  possible  to  a  conclusion  which  will  justify  publication  of  accurate  information 
on  the  cost  of  producing  the  major  farm  products  of  Ontario. 

In  addition  to  the  above-mentioned  research  projects,  the  department  has 
rendered  services  to  farmers  and  their  allied  organizations  in  the  following: 
organization  and  reorganization  of  the  Ontario  Turnip  Growers'  Co-operative, 
Ltd.;  equitable  freight  rates  on  wheat  for  Ontario  flour  mills;  establishment  of 
accounting  systems  in  co-operative  apple-marketing  associations;  organizations 
of  city  milk  producers'  associations  and  assistance  in  civic  milk  investigations 
conducted  by  municipal  authorities. 

PHYSICS  DEPARTMENT 

In  addition  to  the  teaching  of  the  regular  and  summer  school  classes  and  the 
answering  of  correspondents,  the  department  has  this  year  devoted  itself  to  the 
following  lines  of  activity: — 

(1)  The  course  in  mathematics  has  been  extended  to  include  calculus  and 
graphs  for  the  specialists  in  science. 

(2)  Instruction  and  demonstrations  in  use  of  explosives  for  landclearing 
has  been  added  to  the  course  for  those  who  are  this  year  graduating  in  the  two 
years'  course. 

(3)  Instruction  in  radio  receiving  sets  is  being  given  to  those  taking  the 
science  specialist  course.  A  four-tube  radio  receiving  set  has  been  installed  for 
purposes  of  demonstration. 

(4)  A  new  bulletin  has  been  issued  to  replace  blue-prints  issued  in  1923-24 
in  connection  with  sewage  disposal  system. 

(5)  Several  store-houses  for  vegetables  have  been  built  or  equipped  under 
instruction  from  the  department  and  recording  thermometers  are  being  placed 
in  one  of  these  in  order  that  continuous  records  of  temperatures  may  be  kept. 

(6)  The  question  of  "Methods  of  Ventilation"  of  septic  tanks  is  being 
investigated. 

(7)  One  lecture  on  spontaneous  combustion  in  hay  mows  was  broadcast  from 
station  CKCL,  Toronto,  Ont.,  when  it  was  designed  to  have  the  most  beneficial 
effects.  A  number  of  letters  asking  for  more  information  were  received  from  those 
who'  had  listened  in. 

Drainage. — Work  along  the  various  branches  of  service  to  farmers  interested 
in  drainage  has  been  carried  on  with  the  very  favourable  results.  Field  men  have 
been  exceptionally  busy  with  surveys,  inspection  and  the  opening  up  of  new 
localities.    Altogether  over  5,000  acres  were  surveyed  for  the  installation  of  tile. 

During  the  winter  special  meetings  were  held  in  localities  where  drainage  was 
of  interest.  These  were  well  attended  and  opportunities  to  discuss  drainage 
practices,  costs  and  financing  were  afforded.  Short  courses  were  held  at  Guelph 
and  Chatham. 

Considerable  drainage  on  the  college  farm  was  completed  early  in  the  summer. 
A  drainage  plot  was  installed  at  Spanish,  and  the  machine  was  then  moved  to 
eastern  Ontario,  where  one  plot  was  completed  and  another,  which  had  to  be  left 
until  spring  for  completion,  started. 

From  time  to  time,  as  conditions  were  favourable  during  the  summer,  we 
photographed  scenes  for  additions  to  our  drainage  film.  We  also  took  a  complete 
film  on  tile  manufacturing.

ONTARIO  VETERINARY  COLLEGE 

While  the  last  few  years  have  been  marked  by  a  reduction  in  attendance 
at  all  veterinary  colleges,  it  is  gratifying  to  report  that  a  slight  improvement 
is  noticeable  this  year.  For  the  session  which  ended  April  30th,  1925,  a  total  of 
(62  students  were  in  regular  attendance,  of  which  22  were  in  the  first  year  class, 
13  in  the  second  year  class,  12  in  the  third  year  class,  and  15  in  the  senior  class. 
Of  the  senior  class,  the  15  successful  candidates  were  graduated  with  the  Degree 
of  Bachelor  of  Veterinary  Science  (B.V.Sc.)  conferred  by  the  University  of 
Toronto  at  Convocation  on  May  1st,  1925.  During  the  present  session,  which 
commenced  on  October  1st,  1925,  a  total  of  66  students  have  registered,  of 
which  21  are  in  the  first-year  class,  21  in  the  second-year  class,  12  in  the  third- 
year  class,  and  12  in  the  senior  class.  It  is  worthy  to  note  that  the  standard 
of  qualification  for  admission  to  the  course  is  being  well  maintained,  and,  as  a 
result,  a  more  suitable  type  of  candidate  is  being  enlisted  for  the  profession. 

The  curriculum  is  being  revised  from  time  to  time  as  appears  necessary  to 
meet  the  needs.  In  general  the  subjects  taught  are  becoming  more  diversified 
and  improvement  is  being  made  in  the  clinical  facilities  and  laboratory  exercises. 
Instruction  is  afforded  veterinary  students  in  the  subjects  of  chemistry,  animal 
husbandry,  botany,  English,  civics,  and  economics  by  the  staff  of  the  Ontario 
Agricultural  College,  and  the  staff  of  the  Ontario  Veterinary  College  give  recip- 
rocal instruction  to  agricultural  students  in  the  subjects  of  anatomy,  materia 
medica,  obstetrics  and  common  diseases  of  farm  animals. 

The  details  regarding  matriculation  requirements,  and  a  description  of  the 
subjects  of  instruction,  are  contained  in  the  college  calendar,  which  is  distributed 
to  those  interested. 

In  addition  to  the  regular  class  lectures,  laboratory  and  other  instructional 
work  with  students,  several  members  of  the  college  staff  endeavour  to  conduct 
such  research  and  investigational  work  as  their  time  and  opportunity  permit. 
Reports  relating  thereto  are  given  in  the  college  report. 

An  extension  service  is  in  operation  whereby  veterinary  surgeons  and  owners 
of  animals  can  send  specimens  to  the  college  for  laboratory  examination.  This 
service  is  being  freely  availed  of  and  a  marked  increase  is  noticeable  in  the 
number  of  specimens  being  received  for  examination.  In  each  case  a  detailed 
report  is  sent  to  the  one  concerned.  This  service  has  been  enlarged  as  regards 
the  wider  application  of  the  agglutination  test  of  blood  samples  for  infectious 
abortion  in  cattle,  for  the  detection  of  pullora  infection  causing  white  diarrhoea 
in  chickens,  and  the  examination  of  fox  feces  for  parasitic  infestations.  A  large 
amount  of  abortion  vaccine  has  also  been  prepared  for  practising  veterinarians 
on  request  of  owners  desiring  to  have  their  cattle  vaccinated  for  infectious 
abortion.  Likewise,  a  considerable  quantity  of  avian  diphtheria  vaccine  has 
been  prepared  and  distributed  for  use  to  veterinarians  desiring  same. 

These  various  activities  and  services  are  dealt  with  fully  in  the  college 
report.

14 REPORT  OF No.  21 

AGRICULTURAL  SOCIETIES  BRANCH 

Increasing  interest  is  being  taken  in  the  work  of  the  fairs  and  exhibitions  of 
the  province.  Exhibits  have  been  more  numerous  than  for  many  years  and  their 
standard  has  reached  a  high  pitch  of  perfection.  This  is  noticeable  not  only  in 
live  stock,  but  also  in  dairy  and  domestic  products,  ladies'  work  and  kindred 
articles  displayed  in  main  buildings.  There  is  a  revival  of  interest  shown  in 
classes  for  light  horses,  which  for  a  while,  owing  to  the  counter  attractions  of 
automobiles,  had  not  been  as  well  filled  as  previously.  Farmers  are  beginning  to 
find  out  that  horses,  light  and  heavy,  have  their  places  on  farms  as  well  as 
tractors  and  automobiles,  and  are  adjusting  their  operations  accordingly.  They 
also  find  that  horse  breeding  is  still  profitable  when  good  sires  and  dams  are  used. 
A  noticeable  feature  in  the  live  stock  sections  is  that  Canadian-bred  horses 
frequently  stand  at  the  head  of  their  classes  when  in  competition  with  imported 
animals.  This  would  indicate  that  our  farmers  are  not  dependent  on  imported 
stock,  and  that  they  can  raise  equally  good  animals  in  Canada  if  more  care  is 
taken  in  breeding  and  fitting. 

The  beneficial  effects  of  the  revision  of  those  sections  of  the  prize  lists  relating 
to  ladies'  work  and  domestic  products  by  departmental  experts  are  very  notice- 
able. Exhibits,  which  had  done  service  for  years,  are  now  a  thing  of  the  past  and 
their  place  is  taken  by  displays  more  modern  and  up-to-date.  The  department 
readily  co-operates  with  societies  which  desire  their  prize  lists  revised,  and  does 
all  in  its  power  to  give  them  any  assistance  that  they  may  require. 

A  number  of  agricultural  societies,  in  revising  their  prize  lists,  are  offering 
prizes  for  market  sheep  and  swine  in  addition  to  those  offered  for  pedigreed  breed- 
ing stock.  This  new  departure  promises  to  be  very  successful  and  has  already 
been  the  means  of  largely  increasing  the  exhibits  and  creating  greater  interest  in 
the  work  of  fall  fairs,  which  have  adopted  this  system.  It  will  certainly  result  in 
improving  the  quality  and  increasing  the  supply  of  lambs  and  swine  available 
for  export. 

Forty-eight  societies  experienced  losses  in  gate  receipts  owing  to  wet  weather 
and  nine  of  these  received  the  maximum  grant  of  $500,  six  of  them  having 
losses  ranging  from  over  $1,000  to  $3,300.  The  agricultural  societies 
appreciate  the  action  of  the  government  in  setting  apart  an  appropriation  of 
$10,000  to  assist  societies  which  are  unfortunate  enough  to  experience  rain  or 
snow  on  the  days  set  apart  for  their  exhibitions. 

FIELD  CROP  COMPETITIONS 

There  is  no  falling  off  in  the  interest  taken  by  the  farmers  of  Ontario  in  the 
standing  and  combined  field  crop  competitions,  the  former  of  which  have  been 
organized  for  eighteen  years.  The  rules  and  regulations  of  the  combined  have 
been  carefully  revised  from  time  to  time  and  are  now  well  adapted  to  serve  the 
purpose  for  which  they  are  drawn  up,  viz.,  to  induce  farmers  and  seed  growers  to 
use  every  means  at  their  disposal  to  improve  the  standard  of  their  field  crops. 
Improvement  in  seed  grain  is  best  effected  by  the  use  of  modern  up-to-date  seed 
cleaning  plants. 

The  displays  of  grain  at  the  Canadian  National  and  Central  Canada  exhibi- 
tions, and  at  the  Royal,  Guelph  and  Ottawa  Winter  fairs  created  interest  by 
showing  what  excellent  grain  farmers  in  Ontario  can  grow.  At  the  auction  sale 
of  seed  grain  and  potatoes  at  the  Royal  Show,  the  interest  taken  was  shown  by 
the  spirited  bidding,  and  high  prices  realized,  showing  the  marked  interest  taken 
by  agriculturists  in  the  endeavour  to  improve  their  field  crops. 


1926 MINISTER  OF  AGRICULTURE 15 

The  beneficial  influence  of  these  competitions  is  by  no  means  confined  to 
those  who  take  part  in  them.  Looking  over  the  catalogue  of  the  Royal  Winter 
Fair,  we  find  entered  in  the  seed  department  many  exhibitors  who  have  not  yet 
become  competitors  in  the  standing  field  crop  competitions,  but  who  have  been 
encouraged  by  the  success  of  their  neighbours  in  the  competitions,  to  try  their 
luck  at  a  big  exhibition,  which  is  held  late  enough  in  the  year  to  give  growers  an 
opportunity  to  get  their  grain  carefully  cleaned  and  in  a  condition  to  make  a  good 
impression  on  the  judge.  Those  who  meet  with  success  will  be  found  in  the  ranks 
of  the  field  crop  competitors  in  the  near  future. 

At  many  fairs  in  the  province  night  pageants  are  being  introduced  and 
are  largely  confined  to  the  young  people  of  the  localities  in  which  they  are  held. 
This  form  of  entertainment  is  meeting  with  the  approval  of  many  boards  of 
directors  in  the  province  and  add  materially  to  the  social  and  financial  sides  of 
exhibitions,  and  are  also  of  educational  value  to  the  young  folk  taking  part  in 
them. 

Marked  improvement  is  shown  in  many  of  the  fair  grounds  of  the  province. 
Many  splendid  buildings  for  housing  live  stock  and  other  exhibits  have  been 
erected  during  1925.  There  is  still  need  for  this  forward  movement  by  the  boards 
of  directors  in  many  sections  of  the  province.  Everything  about  the  grounds  and 
buildings  of  an  agricultural  society  should  be  of  educational  value  to  the  patrons. 
Neatness  and  tidiness  should  prevail  in  every  corner  thereof.  The  outlook  for 
1926  is  most  encouraging. 

The  Ontario  Field  Crop  and  Seed  Growers'  Association  is  meeting  a  long-felt 
want  among  the  grain  growers  of  the  province  and  interest  is  being  aroused  as 
to  the  establishment  of  seed  cleaning  plants  in  different  parts  of  Ontario. 

The  membership  for  1925  shows  a  marked  increase  over  that  of  any  previous 
year,  and  a  definite  announcement  is  expected  from  the  committee  appointed  to 
investigate  the  possibilities  of  procuring  cleaning  machines  that  will  do  the 
necessary  work  required  by  those  interested  in  having  their  grain  put  in  the  best 
possible  shape  for  their  own  and  market  requirements.  It  has  been  suggested 
by  this  committee  that  a  section  of  the  province  be  selected  and  two  railway  cars 
be  fitted  up  with  specially  improved  machines  and  be  moved  from  station  to 
station  where  farmers  could  bring  in  their  grain  to  be  thoroughly  cleaned  and  at 
the  Same  time  see  for  themselves  these  machines  in  operation.  The  C.P.R.  and 
C.N.  Railways  have  offered  to  provide  these  cars  free  of  charge  and  move  them 
from  point  to  point  as  required. 

HORTICULTURAL  SOCIETIES 

It  is  satisfactory  to  note  the  marvellous  growth  of  the  horticultural  societies 
in  Ontario  in  recent  years.  In  1925,  thirty-nine  new  societies  became  organized, 
one-half  being  rural,  making  a  total  of  248,  and  the  membership  now  stands  at 
over  55,000.  Applications  have  already  been  received  from  twenty  rural  and 
urban  localities  which  intend  organizing  branches  during  1926.  There  has  been  a 
great  improvement  in  the  appearance  of  cities,  towns,  villages  and  townships 
where  the  members  of  horticultural  societies  are  carrying  on  their  excellent  work 
with  no  thought  of  direct  personal  reward  for  same. 

Among  the  societies  organized  are  a  number  of  rural  ones  with  headquarters 
in  the  townships.  They  have  a  large  field  of  work  before  them,  scarcely  yet 
touched,  and  will  be  of  the  greatest  benefit  to  farmers,  some  of  whom  have  hither- 
to been  indifferent  to  the  surroundings  of  their  homes  and  grounds,   in  which 


16 REPORT  OF No.  21 

in  many  cases  improvement  could  be  effected  with  little  outlay  of  time  and 
money. 

The  many  highways  which  now  radiate  through  the  province  are  among  the 
inducements  to  those  residing  thereon  to  beautify  their  surroundings,  and  much 
favourable  comment  is  heard  from  tourists  as  to  the  many  well-kept  towns  and 
villages  in  Ontario  through  which  they  pass. 

The  department  arranged  for  160  meetings  at  which  lectures  were  delivered 
by  a  member  of  the  staff  of  the  Horticultural  Societies'  Branch.  There  were,  in 
addition,  400  gardens  judged  and  a  number  of  horticultural  shows.  Owing  to  the 
limitation  of  the  staff,  many  requests  for  lectures  could  not  be  filled.  Other 
educational  work  was  the  drawing  up  of  plans  for  school  trustees  for  the  beauti- 
fication  of  school  grounds  and  war  memorials,  many  of  which  were  arranged  for 
by  officers  and  directors  of  horticultural  societies. 

ONTARIO  PLOWMEN'S  ASSOCIATION 

It  is  just  fifteen  years  since  a  few  enthusiastic  leaders  among  the  farmers  of 
Ontario  met  in  a  little  room  in  the  village  of  Richmond  Hill  and,  after  consulting^ 
together,  decided  to  organize  an  institution  that  has  become  one  of  the  most 
outstanding  in  our  banner  province,  favourably  and  widely  known  as  the  Ontario- 
Plowmen's  Association. 

Few,  indeed,  were  the  plowmen  who  foregathered  at  the  first  match  at  Sunny 
Brook  Farm,  and  the  twentieth  century  power  machine  end  of  it  was  represented 
by  one  crudely  constructed  and  now  out-of-date  tractor. 

As  manufacturers  of  farm  machinery  had  practically  ceased  to  exhibit  at 
fairs  and  exhibitions  held  in  the  province,  it  was  decided  by  the  officers  and 
directors  of  the  Ontario  Plowmen's  Association,  in  order  to  make  the  organization 
the  success  they  hoped  it  would  be,  to  add  to  the  plowing  match  a  machinery 
exhibition,  so  as  to  demonstrate  to  assembled  farmers  the  different  types  of 
machines  in  operation,  so  that  they  for  themselves  could  decide  the  most  suitable 
machines  for  their  soil  conditions,  and  the  result  has  been  most  satisfactory  to  all 
concerned.  Every  important  implement  manufacturer  in  Canada  is  now  an 
exhibitor  at  the  Ontario  Plowmen's  great  provincial  match.  Perhaps  there  never 
has  been  an  organization  that  has  done  so  much  to  bring  more  closely  together 
manufacturers  and  farmers  than  this  one,  and  it  is  gratifying  to  note  the  hearty 
co-operation  that  now  exists  and  the  splendid  financial  assistance  given  in  this 
connection  by  the  manufacturers  whose  dealing  is  largely  with  our  farmers. 

At  the  plowing  match  held  by  the  Central  Association  at  Brockville  in  1925 
the  entries  were  the  largest  in  the  history  of  the  organization.  A  full  half-mile 
of  territory  was  covered  by  a  tented  city,  and  30,000  farmers  attended  during 
the  four  days  of  the  match.  There  were  201  entries  in  the  walking  plow  classes- 
and  sixty-seven  in  tractors,  making  a  total  of  268,  about  fifty  entries  more  than 
in  previous  years.  A  special  feature  of  the  Brockville  match  and  one  that  created 
great  interest  was  the  operation  of  an  up-to-date  seed  cleaning  machine.  Manu- 
facturers report  that  the  sales  of  implements  made  were  beyond  their  expectation. 
As  in  previous  years  the  Hydro-Electric  Commission  had  in  operation  every 
appliance  used  in  Canadian  farm  homes,  all  propelled  by  electricity. 

The  interest  created  in  the  Ontario  Plowmen's  Association  is  shown  in  the 
fact  that  the  membership  and  number  of  new  branches  formed  are  greater  than 
ever  before.

ONTARIO  VEGETABLE  GROWERS'  ASSOCIATION 

The  importance  of  growing  high-class  vegetables  to  supply  the  needs  of  the 
many  thousands  living  in  cities,  towns  and  villages,  cannot  be  overestimated. 
In  spite  of  many  drawbacks,  low  prices,  high  cost  of  labour  and  the  unfair  com- 
petition they  are  up  against  from  United  States  growers,  these  sturdy,  intensive 
farmers  are  not  discouraged,  but  are  looking  forward  to  the  time  when  their 
grievances  will  be  remedied.  They  should  not  be  obliged  to  compete  against 
the  low  standard  types  of  citizens  who  are  engaged  in  market  gardening  in  the 
Southern  States  and  Mexico  with  their  warmer  climate  and  tariffs  and  trans- 
portation discriminating  in  their  favour.  Ontario  cities  and  towns  are  being 
made  the  dumping  ground  for  American  surplus  vegetable  products  and  the 
Federal  Dumping  Act  is  not  being  enforced.  Consumers  in  towns  and  cities 
should  whenever  and  wherever  possible  purchase  Canadian  grown  fruit  and 
vegetables. 

The  appointment  of  a  vegetable  field  man  by  the  department  has  been  much 
appreciated  and  the  results  have  been  most  satisfactory  to  all  concerned.  The 
association  had  in  1925  the  largest  increase  in  branches  and  membership  since 
it  was  organized.  The  members  are  becoming  imbued  with  the  spirit  of 
co-operation  both  in  purchasing  their  supplies  and  the  sale  of  their  products. 
Considerable  assistance  was  extended  in  the  matter  of  marketing. 

With  better  transportation  facilities  and  a  reasonable  protective  tariff 
for  their  industry,  the  growers  will  be  enabled  to  carry  on  and  continue  to  pro- 
duce, as  they  are  now  doing,  the  finest  vegetables  on  this  continent.

LIVE  STOCK  BRANCH 

Activities  in  the  special  interests  of  live  stock  have  covered  a  very  wide 
range. 

ONTARIO  PROVINCIAL  WINTER  FAIR 

The  Winter  Fair  held  in  Guelph,  November  10th  to  13th,  1924,  from  the 
standpoint  of  average  excellence  of  exhibits,  was  possibly  the  best  show  in  its 
history.  The  only  drawback  to  its  complete  success  was  the  limited  entries  in 
poultry  and  a  lessened  attendance. 

It  is  becoming  increasingly  difficult  for  the  number  of  winter  fairs  existing 
in  the  Province  to  be  carried  on  satisfactorily,  owing  to  the  necessity  of  rounding 
out  dates  for  each  show  which  would  meet  the  requirements  for  that  section  of 
Ontario,  and  which  also  would  not  have  an  injurious  effect  upon  other  shows 
held  in  the  Province.

The  larger  shows  are  doing  a  great  deal  toward  popularizing  a  high  type  of 
commercial  horse,  and  bringing  to  the  attention  of  the  public  the  most  famous 
sires  in  the  Province.  It  is  hoped  that  an  attempt  will  also  be  made  by  the  county 
shows  to  bring  to  the  general  public  a  knowledge  of  the  best  breeding  sires  in 
each  community.  When  this  is  done  the  basis  for  awarding  premiums  to  stallions 
in  Ontario  can  be  put  on  a  more  satisfactory  basis,  and  while  now  horses  receive 
a  premium  on  conformation  alone,  it  will  be  possible  when  the  winning  sires  are 
tabulated  by  the  leading  shows  of  the  Province  to  award  premiums  to  stallions 
not  only  on  conformation,  but  also  on  the  performance  of  their  get.  There  is 
no  doubt  that  the  publication  each  year  in  Scotland  of  the  prize-winning  sires  has 
done  a  great  deal  toward  raising  the  standard  of  horses  in  that  country,  and  we 
believe  that  a  like  policy  adopted  in  Ontario  would  be  of  immense  advantage 
in  stimulating  and  encouraging  the  use  of  such  tried  sires  as  would  guarantee  an 
improvement  in  the  quality  of  the  horses  bred  in  this  Province. 

Clydesdale  Stallion  "Mainring" 

In  November,  1924,  the  Clydesdale  stallion  "Mainring"  was  presented  to 
the  Ontario  Department  of  Agriculture,  by  W.  B.  Clelland,  Troy,  Ontario. 
This  horse  has  been  a  consistent  winner  in  showings,  having  won  first  and 
reserve  champion  at  the  Summer  Show,  Glasgow,  in  1923;  reserve  champion 
at  Royal  Agricultural  Society  Show,  Newcastle,  England,  1923;  Grand 
Champion.  Royal  Winter  Fair,  Toronto,  1923;  and  Grand  Champion,  Inter- 
national Live  Stock  Show,  Chicago,  1923. 

During  the  season  of  1925  "Mainring"  stood  for  serv'ice  at  Brooklin,  Ontario. 
The  following  were  the  terms  and  conditions  of  service: 

"  'Mainring'  will  stand  at  Brooklin  Inn  Stable,  Brooklin,  Ontario,  and  will 
serve  approved  mares  at  a  fee  of  S25,  payable  S5  cash  at  time  of  service  and 
$20  when  mare  proves  to  be  in  foal.  No  insurance.  Mares  not  returned 
regularly  will  be  charged  as  in  foal.  Parties  disposing  of  mares  before  foaling 
time  will  be  held  responsible  for  service  fee.  All  accidents  to  mares  at  risk  of 
owner.  Pasture  will  be  provided  for  mares  coming  from  a  distance,  at  a  charge 
of  $1  per  week,  or  part  thereof. 

At  the  close  of  the  season  sixty-seven  mares  had  been  bred  to  "Mainring." 
The  stallion  was  then  sent  to  winter  quarters  at  the  Ontario  Agricultural  College, 
Guelph,  Ontario.

RAM  CLUBS 

Work  in  connection  with  the  ram  clubs  organized  through  the  Live  Stock 
Branch,  has  been  carried  on  during  the  year  with  very  satisfactory  results. 
During  the  year  just  closed  the  agreements  covering  the  Middleville  Club  in 
Lanark  County,  and  the  Eganville  Club  in  Renfrew  County  expired.  At  the 
end  of  the  four  years'  work  it  can  be  said  that  the  objects  for  which  these  clubs 
were  formed  have  been  attained  and  that  much  has  been  done  by  promoting 
such  practices  as  dipping,  docking,  castrating,  using  good  pure-bred  sires  and 
the  co-operative  marketing  of  the  lambs  on  a  graded  basis.  Interest  has  been 
aroused  and  the  work  has  been  appreciated,  as  evidenced  by  the  fact  that  a 
number  of  farmers  in  the  Middleville  section,  feeling  they  could  not  secure 
satisfactory  rams  locally,  asked  that  good  pure-bred  rams  be  purchased  for  them. 
It  was  interesting  to  note  that  in  not  one  instance  was  the  price  to  be  paid 
mentioned,  but  one  stipulation  was  that  the  ram  must  be  a  good  one. 

Market  lamb  fairs  were  held  at  Middleville  and  Franktown  in  Lanark 
County,  at  which  prizes  were  offered  for  such  classes  as: — 

1 — Pen  of  ten  market  lambs. 
2 — Pen  of  five  market  lambs. 
3 — Single  ewe  or  wether  lamb. 

4 — Breeding  pen,  to  consist  of  a  pure-bred  ram  and  three  grade  ewe 
lambs,  sired  by  the  ram  shown. 

All  lambs  were  graded  and  marked  when  delivered  at  the  fair.  After  the 
judging  the  lambs  were  shipped  for  sale  to  the  Toronto  Stock  Yards,  and  settle- 
ment made  to  the  contributors  on  a  graded  basis.

During  the  year  a  new  ram  club  was  organized  in  the  Rainy  River  District 
with  thirty  members.  Shropshire  and  Oxford  rams  were  suppUed  in  October. 
The  Franktown  Club  in  Lanark  County,  which  was  organized  in  1924  with 
twelve  members,  has  been  working  so  well  that  the  membership  has  been  increased 
during  the  past  year  to  thirty-one.  Twenty  rams,  Oxfords  and  Shropshires, 
were  placed  in  this  club  in  October,  1925. 

Another  club  was  organized  on  Manitoulin  Island,  in  the  district  surrounding 
Little  Current.  This  club,  w^th  a  membership  of  ten,  was  supplied  with  Shrop- 
shire and  Southdown  rams.  Demonstration  work  in  dipping,  docking,  castrating, 
co-operative  marketing  of  lambs  on  a  graded  basis,  will  be  carried  on  during 
1926.  It  is  hoped  that  market  lamb  fairs,  may  be  held  at  these  centres  as  another 
educational  feature. 

BACON  HOG  CLUBS 

The  conditions  under  which  these  clubs  are  organized  are  as  follows: — 

1.  A  club  should  consist  of  at  least  ten  members,  owning  twenty  or 
more  breeding  sows. 

2.  Applications  for  the  loan  of  boars  shall  be  made  out  on  special 
iorms  supplied  by  the  Live  Stock  Branch.  The  department  must  have 
given  approval  to  the  application  before  a  boar  will  be  supplied. 

3.  The  members  of  the  club  shall  select  a  man  in  whose  charge  each 
boar  will  be  kept.  The  man  selected  shall  be  known  as  the  caretaker  and 
shall  sign,  in  triplicate,  an  agreement  with  the  members  of  the  club,  on 
forms  supplied  by  the  Live  Stock  Branch.  One  copy  should  be  retained 
by  the  secretary,  one  by  the  caretaker,  and  the  third  copy  should  be  for- 
warded to  the  Live  Stock  Branch. 

4.  The  members  of  the  club  shall  decide  and  shall  inform  the  caretaker 
the  service  fee  to  be  charged. 

5.  The  caretaker  of  each  boar  shall  keep  a  proper  service  record  in  a 
special  book,  supplied  by  the  branch  for  the  purpose. 

6.  The  secretary  of  each  club  shall,  on  or  before  February  1st  of  each 
year,  forward  to  the  Live  Stock  Branch,  on  a  form  which  shall  be  provided 
by  the  Branch,  a  report  covering  the  following  points: — 

(a)  List  of  officers  and  members  of  club  and  their  addresses. 

(b)  Copy  of  service  record. 

7.  All  animals  placed,  remain  the  property  of  the  Department  of 
Agriculture. 


24 REPORT  OF No.  21 

8.  It  shall  be  understood  that  each  member  of  the  club  agrees  that  as 
long  as  the  club  has  the  use  of  the  pure-bred  boar,  loaned  by  the  Department, 
he  will  not  keep  on  his  own  farm  for  his  own  use,  or  for  the  use  of  his  neigh- 
bours, any  grade  or  scrub  boar. 

9.  The  Live  Stock  Branch  agrees  to  deliver  the  animal  free  of  charge 
to  the  nearest  railway  station  of  the  club.  Any  charges  incurred  in  deliver- 
ing the  animal  from  the  station  to  the  caretaker,  shall  be  borne  by  the  club. 

The  club  decides  what  breed  of  boar  it  desires  and  the  Department  reserves 
the  right  to  supply  the  club  an  animal  of  any  age  so  long  as  he  is  suitable  for 
service. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  1925  there  were  125  active  Bacon  Hog  Clubs- 
At  the  end  of  the  year  this  number  had  increased  to  246  and  more  applications 
from  clubs  had  been  received  but  owing  to  the  scarcity  of  good  quality  animals 
they  could  not  be  filled  at  once. 

The  following  is  a  list  of  the  counties  having  clubs  and  the  number  of 
clubs  in  each  county: — 

Number  Number 

Counties  of  Clubs  Counties  of  Clubs 

Brant 4  Middlesex 4 

Bruce 4  Norfolk 2 

Carleton 1  Northumberland 17 

Dufferin 6  Ontario 1 

Elgin 5  Oxford 14 

Essex 9  Peel 2 

Frontenac 1  Perth 9

Huron 7  Victoria 6 

Kent 6  Waterloo 15 

Lambton 4  Wellington 9 

Lanark 3  Wentworth 13 

Leeds 2  York 2 

Lennox  and  Addington 1 

Of  the  246  animals  in  the  clubs  199  were  on  test  as  having  been  in  the  first 
club,  39  had  proven  to  be  good  breeders  and  were  exchanged  to  other  clubs  and 
8  were  in  their  third  club.  Among  the  latter  number  was  the  first  animal  placed 
in  1920.  He  proved  to  be  an  excellent  breeder  and  though  six  years  old  on 
June  22nd,  he  is  still  in  service  in  a  club  and  giving  splendid  satisfaction.  This 
is  but  one  instance  of  the  great  value  of  the  plan  which  permits  of  the  retention 
in  service  of  proven  sires. 

To  take  care  of  the  applications  received  during  the  past  year,  151  animals 
were  bought  from  50  different  breeders  throughout  the  Province  at  an  average 
cost  of  $44.68.  Among  this  number  were  many  of  the  prize  winners  at  the  lead- 
ing fairs  and  exhibitions. 

The  animals  were,  in  most  cases,  shipped  by  express  or  delivered  by  truck 
to  the  caretaker  of  the  club.  In  some  instances  it  was  necessary  to  utilize  a  truck 
when  exchanging  boars  from  club  to  club.  Including  such  shipments  and  ship- 
ments by  express  there  were  150,  at  a  total  cost  of  $852.22,  or  $5.68  per  shipment. 
This  represents  a  very  substantial  assistance  to  hog  breeders  in  enabling  them  to 
distribute  breeding  stock  throughout  the  Province.

26 REPORT  OF No.  21 

As  follow  up  work  the  Ontario  Department  co-operating  with  the  Dominion 
Department  of  Agriculture  and  local  representatives  assisted  in  the  organization 
of  special  bacon  hog  fairs  at  the  following  points: — 

County 

Woodstock Oxford. 

Mill  Grove  Station Wentworth. 

Kitchener Waterloo. 

Stirling Hastings. 

Colborne Northumberland. 

Stayner Simcoe. 

Milton Halton. 

These  fairs  were  usually  held  at  or  near  the  loading  station  on  a  regular 
hog  shipping  day.  The  fifty-two  demountable  hog  pens  supplied  by  the  Ontario 
Department  furnished  most  of  the  accommodation  required  and  permitted  of  the 
staging  of  a  real  educational  display.  In  addition  the  Ontario  Department 
gave  financial  assistance  to  the  prize  list  by  the  payment  of  deficits  up  to  $100. 
A  typical  prize  list  for  such  a  fair  follows: —

Class  16. — Champion  Bacon  Hog:  Cup. 

Exhibitors  were  required  to  have  all  hogs  in  the  pens  at  ten  a.m.  Market 
hogs  were  weighed  and  graded  by  an  official  grader  and  afterwards  penned  in 
order.  Experienced  judges  made  the  placings  in  the  afternoon  and  gave  reasons 
for  the  placings.  Some  really  remarkable  classes  were  brought  out  and  great 
interest  was  shown  by  the  exhibitors  and  visitors  in  the  placings  and  reasons 
given . 

The  influence  of  a  good  sire  was  demonstrated  in  a  very  striking  way  at 
one  of  these  fairs.  The  progeny  of  a  boar  that  had  been  loaned  to  a  district 
eighteen  months  previously  had  the  following  winnings  to  its  credit: — 1st,  2nd, 
3rd  and  7th  in  the  group  of  six  market  hogs;  1st,  2nd  and  3rd  in  the  pair  of 
bacon  hogs;  1st,  2nd,  3rd  and  4th  in  sows  over  six  and  under  twelve  months 
of  age;  and  first  in  sows  under  six  months.     The  first-prize  sow  in  the  class  over 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 27 

six  and  under  twelve  months  in  strong  competition  was  the  champion  female  of 
the  show.  These  animals  were  pronounced  to  be  of  a  type  and  quality  superior 
to  anything  ever  seen  in  that  district. 

An  agricultural  representative  writes:  "You  will  be  interested  to  know  that 
the  percentage  of  selects  coming  out  of  this  station  for  the  last  five  months  was 
38  per  cent,  as  against  26  per  cent,  for  the  same  period  last  year."  This  improve- 
ment has  followed  the  formation  of  a  number  of  clubs  in  the  district  and  is 
evidence  that  the  general  distribution  of  the  right  type  of  boars  is  necessary  for 
a  general  improvement  in  market  hogs. 

BETTER  LIVE  STOCK  TRAIN 

A  better  live  stock  train  was  operated  through  Eastern  and  Northern 
Ontario,  beginning  on  the  19th  of  March,  and  ending  on  May  11th,  1925.  This 
train  was  routed  through  Eastern  and  Northern  Ontario  so  as  to  serve  those  dis- 
tricts not  covered  by  the  train  of  1924. 

There  were  in  all  seventeen  cars,  made  up  as  follows:  Two  feed  cars;  one 
car  for  beef  cattle;  one  car  for  demonstration  bulls;  one  car  of  sheep,  showing 
breed  types;  one  car  of  swine  showing  the  life  history  and  development  of  the 
bacon  hog,  together  with  Wiltshire  sides  made  from  market  grades  of  commercial 
hogs  to  illustrate  each  grade;  one  general  car  used  for  supply  and  demonstration 
work;  one  horse  car  in  which  were  carried  two  horses  for  demonstration  work, 
and  to  serve  as  illustrations  of  market  types  in  present  day  demand;  one  car 
of  grade  dairy  cows;  one  car  of  dairy  products;  one  car  of  poultry;  one  car  for 
seed,  wool  and  light;  one  car  for  feeds,  feeding  and  information;  two  general 
lecture  cars;  one  diner  and  one  sleeper. 

In  addition  to  explanations  and  short  talks  as  given  in  each  car,  together 
with  demonstrations  on  horses  which  were  unloaded  at  each  stop,  there  were 
delivered  the  following  lectures: — 

Dairy  Cattle 62 

Beef  and  Dairy  Cattle 53 

Horses 31 

Horses  and  Beef  Cattle 35 

Sheep  and  Swine 13 

Poultry 62 

Poultry  Killing  Demonstrations 70 

General  Lectures 1 

making  a  total  of  327  lectures  delivered  at  seventy-nine  points  throughout  the 
Province,  or  an  average  of  over  four  lectures  at  each  stop.  Supplementing 
these  lectures  as  given  to  farmers  there  were  special  lectures  provided  for  school 
children.  The  lectures  delivered  at  each  point  were  dependent  upon  the  require- 
ments of  the  community  being  visited. 

The  staff  and  equipment  for  the  train  was  supplied  by  the  Ontario  and 
Dominion  Department  of  Agriculture,  the  Ontario  Live  Stock  Associations,  the 
Industrial  and  Development  Council  of  Meat  Packers,  the  Canadian  Pacific  and 
Canadian  National  Railways. 

The  operation  of  the  train  has  cost  the  Ontario  Department  of  Agriculture 
approximately  $4,000  more  than  the  regular  extension  work  which  would  have 
been  carried  on  had  the  train  not  been  in  operation.  It  is  felt  that  the  expendi- 
ture of  this  money  is  well  justified  when  one  considers  that  approximately  71,000 
people  visited  the  train  and  327  lectures  were  delivered  by  some  of  the  leading 
live  stock  men  of  the  Province.  The  following  table  gives  a  summarized  state-

ASSISTANCE  TO  AUCTION  SALES  OF  PURE-BRED  LIVE  STOCK 

During  the  year  November  1st,  1924,  to  October  31st,  1925,  assistance  has 
been  given  to  twenty-seven  local  associations  that  have  held  sales.  A  total  of 
980  cattle  were  sold  and  the  total  assistance  given  amounted  to  $2,340.  The 
assistance  so  granted  is  paid  at  the  rate  of  $3  per  head  for  every  animal  sold, 
with  a  maximum  grant  to  any  association  of  $100.  Inspection  of  the  stock 
offered  by  members  of  these  clubs  has  been  made,  where  requested,  by  an  officer 
of  the  live  stock  branch.  Such  inspection  previous  to  the  sale  eliminates 
undesirable  animals. 


1926 MINISTER  OF  AGRICULTURE 2_9 

PURCHASE  OF  COWS  FOR  NORTHERN  ONTARIO 

During  the  year  the  Department  of  Agriculture  and  the  Department  of 
Northern  Development  in  co-operation,  have  formulated  a  policy  for  assisting 
settlers  in  Northern  Ontario  in  the  securing  of  desirable  dairy  cows.  Such 
assistance  has  been  felt  necessary  owing  to  the  advances  made  by  settlers  along 
agricultural  lines.  The  production  of  hay  in  this  northern  section  of  the  Province 
is  greater  than  the  local  market  will  consume,  consequently  cattle  are  needed. 
Creameries  have  been  built  so  that  a  ready  market  is  available  for  the  cream 
produced.     The  following  main  facts  were  made  known  to  settlers: 

Cattle  are  to  be  purchased  in  carload  lots  only. 

Settlers  are  to  appoint  a  representative  to  select  the  animals  and  are  to 
authorize  him  to  act  on  their  behalf  in  such  selection  and  in  deciding  as  to  price. 

Settlers  are  required  to  sign  an  application  form  to  this  effect  agreeing  to 
give  promissory  notes  and  liens  against  their  farms  for  unpaid  balances. 

Government  will  appoint  a  representative  of  the  Department  of  Agriculture 
to  accompany  settlers'  representative  and  assist  him  in  selection  of  cattle. 

Government  will  advance  full  amount  of  money  to  pay  for  cattle  at  time 
of  purchase  and  to  prepay  transportation  charges  and  to  pay  expenses  of  settlers' 
representative. 

Settlers  will  be  charged  $12  per  cow  to  defray  the  transportation  charges 
and  the  cost  of  their  own  representative.  This  flat  rate  will  mean  a  saving  of 
several  dollars  per  cow  to  the  settlers,  and  will  give  them  the  advantage  of 
knowing  exactly  what  those  costs  will  be. 

The  total  cost  to  the  settler  will  be  the  amount  paid  for  the  stock  pur- 
chased for  him  plus  $12  per  head  for  those  other  charges. 

Upon  delivery  the  settler  will  be  required  to  pay  at  least  25  per  cent,  of  this 
total  cost  and  as  much  more  as  he  is  able. 

Interest  at  6  per  cent,  will  be  charged  on  unpaid  balances  and  repayments 
are  required  at  the  rate  of  $3  per  cow  per  month  and  the  settler  shall  give  a 
promissory  note  to  this  effect  and  a  lien  against  his  farm. 

Repayments  may  be  made  to  the  creamery  or  to  such  other  local  officer  as 
may  be  designated  in  the  community. 

Cows  were  placed  as  follows: — 

Cochrane  Section 51  cows. 

Ramore  "  81  cows  and  2  bulls. 

Val  Gagne        "  47  cows. 

Chelmsford      "  17  cows. 

Walford  Sta.    "  11  cows. 

Mattice  "  22  cows  and  1  bull. 

Hearst  "  31  cows,  6  heifers  and  1  bull. 

Kapuskasing    "  17  cows. 

Dryden  "  16  cows. 

This  makes  a  total  of  293  cows,  6  heifers  and  4  bulls  sent  north  in  20  car 
loads  for  distribution  among  the  settlers.  The  average  cost  of  the  cows  and 
heifers  was  $75.68.  Thirty-six  of  these  cows  were  pure-bred  and  47  had  been 
tested  for  tuberculosis.  In  breeding  the  following  is  the  approximate  percentage : 
Ayrshires,  47  percent.;  Holsteins,  39  per  cent.;  Shorthorns,  10  per  cent.;  Jersey, 
4  per  cent.  Two  Holstein  bulls,  1  Shorthorn  bull  and  1  Ayrshire  bull  were  also 
purchased  on  orders  for  settlers.  These  bulls  averaged  in  cost  approximately 
$136.

LIVE  STOCK  IMPROVEMENT 

In  addition  to  the  operation  of  the  better  live  stock  train,  a  great  deal  has 
been  done  throughout  the  Province  in  encouraging  and  stimulating  the  use  of 
improved  sires. 

Fieldmen  have  been  furnished;  speakers  have  been  supplied,  and  bonuses 
under  certain  conditions  have  been  given. 

The  leading  live  stock  men  in  each  county  are  encouraged  to  form  a  local 
live  stock  improvement  committee,  from  which  centre  the  work  may  be  organized, 
either  for  the  improving  of  breeding  animals  or  the  organizing  of  a  proper  system 
of  marketing  commercial  and  breeding  animals. 

ASSISTANCE  TO  ONTARIO  EXHIBITORS  AT  INTERNATIONAL 

SHOWS 

The  Ontario  Department  of  Agriculture,  through  the  Live  Stock  Branch, 
by  helping  in  the  payment  of  freight  and  other  expenses,  makes  it  possible  for 
Ontario  breeders  to  exhibit  at  foreign  shows,  and  thereby,  advertise  the  quality 
of  Ontario  live  stock.

Beef  Cattle 

Ontario  was  represented  at  Chicago  with  two  herds  of  Shorthorn  cattle, 
the  owners  being  James  Douglas,  Caledonia,  Ontario,  and  T.  A.  Russell,  Downs- 
view.  In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  Chicago  show  is  the  greatest  beef  cattle  show 
in  America,  the  success  of  the  Ontario  entries  is  outstanding  evidence  that 
Ontario  breeders  rank  high  among  the  breeders  of  this  Continent.

Ontario  won  64  per  cent,  of  all  first  prizes  and  55  per  cent,  of  all 
championships  for  which  they  competed.  Perhaps  one  of  the  most  outstand- 
ing successes  is  the  winning  by  Col.  Robert  McEwen  &  Sons,  for  the  fourth  time 
in  succession,  the  grand  championship  for  the  best  carload  of  fifty  market  lambs. 
C.  J.  Brodie,  Stouffville,  stood  second  in  this  competition. 

Ontario  exhibitors  consisted  of:  Belvoir  Stock  Farm,  Delaware;  R.  J.  Flem-

Denfield;  F.  B.  Glaspell,  Hampton;  Col.  Robt.  McEwen,  London;  Larkin  Farms, 
Queenston;  C.  J.  Brodie,  Stouffville  and  James  Snell,  Clinton. 


1926  MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE  33 


INSTITUTES  BRANCH 

The  Institutes  throughout  the  Province  are  carrying  on  effectively  along 
educational,  social,  community  service  and  philanthropic  lines.  Their  record 
of  accomplishment  in  the  1,001  branches  with  34,259  members  is  the  strongest 
evidence  as  to  the  value  being  derived  through  the  Institutes  in  added  efficiency, 
wholesome  social  life,  community  activities  and  philanthropy  by  the  residents 
of  rural  Ontario. 

It  is  in  place  to  make  reference  at  this  time  to  the  rapid  spread  of  the  move- 
ment which  had  its  origin  in  Ontario,  extending  first  to  other  provinces  and  then 
overseas.  It  was  just  ten  years  ago  in  June  last  that  the  first  Women's  Institute 
was  organized  in  England  at  a  place  called  Llanfair  in  Wales.  One  of  the  highest 
authorities  on  rural  history  in  England  considers  the  Women's  Institutes  "the 
most  important  body  formed  during  the  century."  The  head  of  the  Board  of 
Agriculture  for  Scotland,  Sir  Robert  Greig,  refers  to  the  Women's  Institutes  as 
"the  most  important  movement  in  social  and  agricultural  history  for  a  hundred 
years."  In  the  British  Isles,  as  in  the  Provinces  of  the  Dominion,  the  foundation 
for  the  work  was  taken  from  Ontario's  methods.  The  leaders  in  Women's 
Institutes  have  adapted  the  general  plan  and  programme  to  local  district  and 
provincial  needs,  and  this  elasticity  and  adaptability  is  one  of  the  reasons  why 
the  work  has  prospered  wherever  it  has  been  introduced. 

It  is  worthy  of  note  that  in  June  last  an  international  conference  of  rural 
women's  organizations  was  held  in  Brussels.  This  conference  was  organized  by 
the  government  of  Belgium,  and  there  were  delegates  from  Italy,  France,  Bel- 
gium, Czecho-Slovakia,  Poland.  Lithuania,  Finland,  Scotland,  Switzerland, 
Hungary  and  England.  The  representative  of  the  Women's  Institutes  of  Eng- 
land, Mrs.  Alfred  Watt,  formerly  of  \'ictoria,  B.C.,  was  chosen  as  vice-president, 
the  other  vice-president  being  Madame  Slavoska  of  Poland.  To  quote  from  a 
recent  article  by  Mrs.  Watt  in  the  "Queen" :  "The  Women's  Institute  movement 
was  transplanted  bodily  with  its  foundations  intact  from  Canada  to  Englana 
and  there  has  since  been  no  structural  alteration.  It  is  surely  unique  that  a 
part  of  the  social  order  of  a  new  country  should  become  an  equally  established 
part  of  the  social  order  of  an  older  country.  It  is  especially  curious  since  the 
Womeh's  Institute  is  a  typically  Canadian  product,  an  original  conception  of 
pioneer  Ontario,  and  yet  here  it  is  to-day  blossoming  graciously  in  the  loveliest 
villages  of  old  Mother  England." 

The  above  will  be  an  encouragement  to  Ontario  women.  The  Institutes 
of  Ontario  are  taking  an  ever  increasing  interest  in  community  and  district 
undertakings,  as  is  evidenced  by  the  reports  presented  by  the  chairmen  of  the 
various  standing  committees  and  the  programmes  outlined  for  future  work. 

The  success  of  the  work  in  Ontario  is  due  in  no  small  measure  to  co-operation 
on  the  part  of  the  local  Institutes  and  government  service.  The  part  of  the 
Government  has  been  to  give  limited  financial  assistance,  to  furnish  literature, 
and  to  provide  lecturers  and  instructors.  The  major  portion  of  the  work,  and 
the  most  important  so  far  as  the  development  of  the  members  and  the  carrying 
on  of  community  work  is  concerned,  has  been  the  result  of  action  on  the  part  of 
the  voluntary  organizations.  On  the  other  hand,  Government  service  could  not 
be  made  so  efficient  and  effective  without  the  existence  of  the  local  voluntary 
organizations. 

A  brief  reference  to  the  activities  of  the  Institutes  under  the  various  standmg 
committees  should  be  of  general  interest. 


34 REPORT  OF No.  21 

Education  and  Better  Schools. — For  a  number  of  years  the  Institutes 
have  taken  a  keen  interest  and  an  active  part  in  providing  better  sanitary  con- 
ditions in  the  rural  schools,  beautification  of  the  grounds  and  interior,  as  well  as 
co-operating  with  teachers  and  trustees  in  making  for  better  educational  facilities 
and  methods.  The  hot  school  lunch,  training  in  music  for  the  pupils,  games, 
essay  writing  and  debates,  have  been  encouraged  by  the  Institutes,  and  they  are 
now  taking  a  keen  interest  in  courses  of  study  and  school  organization.  The 
Women's  Institutes  will,  no  doubt,  be  a  factor  in  bringing  about  better  organiza- 
tion for  rural  school  activities,  being  keenly  interested  in  the  proposed  plan  for 
township  school  boards. 

Continued  interest  is  being  shown  in  school  attendance,  securing  and  retain- 
ing competent  teachers,  education  for  the  retarded  and  the  non-English  speaking 
pupils,  securing  suitable  boarding  places  for  teachers,  medical  inspection  and 
follow-up  work,  supervision  of  the  pupils  at  noon  hours,  the  Junior  Red  Cross, 
and  other  activities  affecting  the  present  welfare  and  future  of  the  children. 

Health. — The  Institutes  are  provided  each  year  with  samples  and  lists  of 
literature  available  through  the  Provincial  and  Dominion  Departments  of  Health, 
and  the  directors  of  health  activities  for  both  the  Province  and  the  Dominion 
report  that  the  Institute  is  one  of  the  most  valued  organizations  with  which  to 
co-operate,  and  a  most  effective  field  for  educational  effort.  The  members 
generally  are  taking  a  keen  interest  in  health  education,  physical  training,  and 
preventive  measures,  while  they  are  acquiring  through  literature  and  the  demon- 
stration-lecture courses  in  "Home  Nursing  and  First  Aid"  greater  efficiency  in 
acquiring  and  conserving  health  and  caring  for  the  sick  and  defective.  Courses 
of  two  weeks  each,  with  classes  in  the  afternoon,  have  been  held  at  fifty-four  places 
with  a  registration  of  1,486  women  and  girls. 

The  Institutes  have  co-operated  in  holding  a  number  of  sick  and  well  baby 
clinics,  and  have  used  their  influence  in  securing  public  health  nurses  and  have 
in  many  instances  given  financial  assistance. 

Agriculture. — Women  are  taking  a  keener  interest  in  the  general  educa- 
tional and  service  activities  of  the  Provincial  and  Dominion  Departments  of 
Agriculture,  while  an  increasing  number  of  women  and  girls  on  the  farm  are 
following  some  special  feature  as  a  means  of  adding  to  the  farm  income,  poultry 
raising,  bee-keeping  and  the  growing  of  small  fruits  being  the  chief  activities. 

The  literature  published  by  the  Provincial  and  Dominion  Departments  of 
Agriculture  is  being  used  as  a  guide  by  the  women  experienced  in  agriculture  as 
well  as  the  beginners.  The  women  on  the  farm  are  in  larger  numbers  seeking 
the  advice  and  assistance  of  the  agricultural  representatives  in  arranging  for 
meetings  and  demonstrations.  Special  interest  is  being  shown  by  the  farm 
women  in  quality  production  and  better  marketing  methods.  The  Women's 
Institutes  are  an  important  factor  in  making  school  fairs  of  added  value. 

Home  Economics. — A  general  and  well  maintained  interest  is  shown  in 
housing,  clothing  and  feeding.  How  to  remodel  and  make  more  convenient  the 
old  house  is  one  of  the  leading  problems,  since  building  is  very  expensive. 

In  the  matter  of  clothing,  a  very  keen  interest  is  being  show^n  in  quality  of 
materials  and  the  instruction  in  dressmaking  and  millinery  through  the  demon- 
stration-lecture courses. 

How  to  provide  suitable  food,  at  a  minimum  of  expense  and  effort,  receives 
due  consideration. 

Many  Institutes  are  utilizing  the  standard  bulletins  of  the  Department, 
chiefly  No.  252,  "Preservation  of  Food;  Home  Canning";  No.  312,  "\'egetables" 
and  "Food  for  the  Family"  as  a  basis  for  the  regular  study  of  food  problems. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 35 

A  study  of  labour-saving  devices,  equipment  and  methods  has  been  a  factor 
in  making  for  greater  efficiency  in  rural  homes. 

Immigration. — The  Institutes  are  linked  up  with  the  Provincial  and 
Dominion  Departments  of  Immigration,  and  the  officers  of  the  local  branches  are 
notified  when  a  new  settler  is  to  arrive,  wdth  the  request  that  they  make  the 
new-comers  welcome  and  invite  the  womenfolk  to  join  the  Institute  and  take  their 
place  in  community  activities.  The  families  of  many  soldier  settlers  and  immi- 
grants have  been  induced  to  take  their  part  in  community  life  in  this  way. 
The  Institutes  also  assist  many  orphans  and  dependent  children  through  support 
of  children's  shelters  and  by  direct  aid  to  the  individual.  A  number  of  Institutes 
have  adopted  one  of  the  Armenian  boys  at  the  Georgetown  Farm,  undertaking 
to  contribute  $200  annually  until  the  boy  reaches  the  age  of  sixteen.  Some 
Institutes,  which  have  not  undertaken  such  a  heavy  obligation,  are  contributing 
in  cash  and  supplies  as  they  are  able.  The  Institutes  will,  no  doubt,  be  an 
important  factor  in  welcoming  and  absorbing  a  large  number  of  newcomers  who 
will  be  brought  to  Canada  as  a  result  of  the  recently  announced  immigration 
policy. 

Community  Activities. — The  Institutes  have  been  very  active  in  providing 
equipment  and  organizing  and  directing  community  activities  along  a  variety  of 
lines.  Libraries,  community  halls,  parks,  skating  rinks,  games,  amateur 
theatricals,  debates,  etc.,  have  been  made  possible  and  effective  through  the 
Institute. 

Legislation. — Many  of  the  Institutes  have  made  a  study  of  Provincial  and 
Dominion  legislation  and  methods  of  administration,  especially  as  they  affect 
women  and  children  and  property  rights.  The  laws  bearing  upon  the  nation- 
ality of  married  women,  legalized  gambling,  education,  property  rights,  the 
franchise,  etc.,  are  receiving  more  and  more  consideration. 

Newly  Formed  Committee. — A  number  of  Institutes  have  been  making 
a  study  of  local  history;  so  a  new  committee  has  been  formed  for  "Historical 
Research  and  Current  Events." 

Nearly  all  branches  are  active  in  local  philanthropic  work,  and  many  are 
from  year  to  year  giving  assistance  to  Provincial  Institutions,  such  as  the 
Institute  for  the  Blind,  Sick  Children's  Hospital,  the  Muskoka  Free  Hospital 
for  Consumptives,  local  hospitals.  The  Institutes  in  some  of  the  prosperous 
sections  of  Old  Ontario  have  been  linked  up  with  the  newer  centres  in  the  north, 
and  have  contributed  generously  in  clothing,  household  equipment  and  food 
supplies.  At  the  recent  conventions  "Relief"  committees  were  formed  to  deal 
with  this  feature  of  work. 

The  need  for  encouraging  a  more  general  use  of  Canadian  made  goods  is 
recognized  by  the  Institutes.  They  also  appreciate  the  fact  that  if  Canadian 
goods  are  to  command  the  market,  they  must  compare  favourably  with  imported 
goods,  so  far  as  price  and  quality  are  concerned.  A  committee  on  "Canadian 
Industries"  has  been  formed. 

It  will  be  seen  from  the  above  that  a  wide  field  of  activity  is  included  in  the 
programme  of  the  community  organization  known  as  Women's  Institutes.  We 
must  not,  however,  forget  that  the  chief  object  of  the  Institutes  is  to  make  for 
efficiency  in  the  home,  and  it  is  gratifying  to  be  able  to  report  that  the  original 
aim  and  object  of  the  organization  has  always  been  kept  to  the  fore. 

So  much  for  the  work  of  the  Institutes  themselves,  which  are  materially 
assisted  through  co-operation  with  the  Institutes  Branch  of  the  Department  of 
Agriculture. 


36 REPORT  OF No.  21 

Demonstration"  Lecture  Courses 

The  most  important  feature  of  Departmental  service  to  Women's  Institutes 
is  that  known  as  Demonstration  Lecture  Courses.  These  courses  consist  of 
ten  (10)  lessons  given  in  the  afternoons  for  a  couple  of  weeks.  The  courses 
embrace  "Home  Nursing  and  First  Aid;"  "Food  Values  and  Cookery;"  "Sewing" 
and  "Millinery."  Many  letters  of  appreciation  are  received  from  those  who 
have  taken  advantage  of  this  instruction.  The  value  of  the  work  reaches 
beyond  the  information  gained  by  the  individuals  concerned,  since  the  holding 
of  a  course  usually  results  in  attracting  new  members  to  the  Institute,  and  the 
instructor  is  able  to  make  suggestions  and  give  information  to  the  leaders  in  the 
Institute,  resulting  in  better  educational  effort  and  community  service  in  the 
locality. 

The  ability  to  give  proper  attention  to  the  sick,  proper  care  and  food  to  the 
children,  to  provide  economically  and  efficiently  food  supplies  for  the  family,  to 
make  many  of  their  own  dresses  and  hats,  is  a  direct  result  of  the  instruction 
given  to  girls  and  women  through  these  courses,  which  are,  for  the  most  part, 
held  in  outlying  districts  where  the  residents  have  no  other  facilities  for  acquiring 
the  information  given.  The  number  of  courses  and  the  attendance  at  the  same 
are  given  below: —

Winter  Short  Courses 

During  the  winter  months  the  Institutes  Branch  furnished  instructors  for  a 
number  of  courses  in  home  economics,  including  nutrition  and  cookery,  care  of  the 
house,  laundry,  home  planning,  furnishing  and  decorating,  labour  saving,  home 
nursing,  sewing  and  millinery,  arranged  particularly  for  classes  of  girls  and  young 
women  organized  by  the  agricultural  representatives  and  held  in  conjunction 
with  their  courses  in  agriculture  for  young  men.  These  courses  were  held  in 
twenty-eight  counties  last  year,  each  course  running  for  one  month;  ten  of  these 
counties  had  two  one-month  courses  each.  In  addition  to  these,  three-month 
courses  were  given  in  eight  counties.  At  the  close  of  a  number  of  these  courses, 
the  girls  were  organized  as  Junior  Institutes  and  have  since  carried  on  very  com- 
mendable Institute  work. 

The  associations  in  the  Institute,  the  opportunity  for  taking  part  in  the 
regular  educational  features  of  the  monthly  programmes,  and  the  special  courses 
above  referred  to,  have,  no  doubt,  resulted  in  many  young  women,  who  had  their 
eyes  turned  cityward,  remaining  on  the  farm. 

Girls'  Garment-Making  Clubs 

There  are  now  fifty-seven  active  Girls'  Garment-Making  Clubs  in  operation, 
with  a  membership  of  about  one  thousand  girls.  A  programme  for  a  first  and 
a  second  vear's  work  in  sewing  and  garment-making  was  drawn  up,  and  a  manual 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 37 

of  instruction  for  club  leaders  and  members  was  issued  by  the  Institutes  Branch. 
Through  correspondence,  and  in  discussion  at  conventions,  the  Women's 
Institutes  were  asked  to  find  local  leaders  and  to  organize  clubs  for  the  girls  of 
from  ten  to  eighteen  years,  in  the  community.  At  the  close  of  the  club  season,  a 
representative  from  the  Department  visits  the  clubs  to  examine  the  work  and 
award  a  certificate  of  achiev^ement  to  each  girl  who  has  successfully  completed 
the  year's  work,  and  incidentally  to  discuss  wuth  the  leaders  plans  for  future  club 
work.  The  work  done  is  of  an  entirely  practical  nature,  and  the  movement 
appears  to  be  winning  the  interest  of  the  girls'  mothers  quite  as  much  as  of  the 
girls  themselves. 

Girls'  Judging  Competition 

Twenty-three  County  Girls'  Household  Science  Judging  Competitions  were 
held  this  year  in  co-operation  with  the  agricultural  representatives.  The 
representatives  organized  the  competitions  and  the  Institutes  Branch  sent  a 
coach  to  each  county  to  train  the  various  groups  of  girls  taking  part.  Score 
sheets,  including  an  explanation  of  standards,  were  prepared  as  "lesson  helps." 
Additional  judges  were  also  provided  for  the  final  county  competitions. 

A  uniform  programme  was  adopted  in  all  county  competitions  this  year, 
the  girls  judging  classes  in  baking,  nutrition,  sewing  and  good  dressing.  The 
same  programme  was  followed  at  the  inter-county  competition  at  the  C.N.E. 
where  teams  of  three  girls  from  twenty-three  counties  took  part  in  a  team  com- 
petition, and  one  hundred  and  fifty-five  additional  girls  in  an  open  competition — 
two  hundred  and  twenty-four  girls  altogether.  Probably  several  times  as  many 
girls  who  could  not  come  to  the  competition  at  Toronto  received  the  benefit  of 
the  training  when  it  was  given  in  their  home  counties.  We  believe  that  this 
training  in  judging  household  articles  will  do  a  great  deal  to  set  higher,  saner 
standards  in  feeding  and  clothing  the  family. 

In  the  inter-county  competition  the  team  from  Elgin  County  won  the 
trophy  awarded  by  the  C.N.E.     The  members  of  the  team  were: 

Miss  Catharine  Turner,  R.R.  No.  2,  Shedden. 

Miss  Mary  McTavish,  R.R.  No.  3,  Shedden. 

Miss  Margaret  Cole,  Southwold  Station. 

The  contestants  standing  highest  in  the  various  classes  in  the  team  com- 
petition were: 

Baking — Miss  Emma  Shantz,  R.R.  No.  2,  Kitchener,  Waterloo  County. 

Nutrition — Miss  Alice  Frizzell,  Bognor,  Grey  County. 

Sewing — Miss  Emily  Mitchell,  Jarvis,  Haldimand  County. 

Good  Dressing — Miss  Doris  Logan,  R.R.  No.  9,  London,  Middlesex  County. 

The  high  girl  in  the  entire  team  competition  w^as: 

Miss  Margaret  Mainland,  Newmarket,  York  County. 

In  the  open  competition  the  high  girls  in  the  various  classes  were: 

Baking — Miss  Lillian  Rutherford,  R.R.  No.  2,  Bolton,  Peel  County. 

Nutrition — Miss  Gwendolyn  Devitt,  Brooklin,  Ontario  County. 

Sewing — Miss  Mary  Martin,  Wexford,  York  County. 

Good  Dressing — Miss  Mary  Dunton,  R.R.  No.  6,  Brampton,  Peel  County. 

Junior  Institutes 

There  are  now  fifty-eight  Junior  Institutes  in  the  Province,  seventeen  of 
which  were  organized  during  the  year.  The  Junior  Institutes  are  made  up  of 
girls  and  young  women  from  the  age  of  sixteen  to  about  twenty-six  years.     They 


38 REPORT  OF No.  21 

are  organized  on  the  same  basis  as  Women's  Institutes,  but  they  carry  on  lines 
of  work  and  study  of  special  interest  to  girls.  In  communities  where  there  are 
Junior  Farmers'  Associations  the  two  organizations  co-operate  in  social  and 
educational  projects  such  as  debates,  dramatics,  music  competitions,  sports, 
improvement  of  community  halls,  etc.  The  Junior  Institutes  have  done  a  good 
deal  of  charity  work  in  assisting  local  institutions  such  as  county  hospitals, 
children's  shelter,  and  the  house  of  refuge,  and  in  sewing  for  needy  families, 
both  in  their  own  communities  and  in  Northern  Ontario. 

Girls'  Conferences 

In  order  to  bring  the  girls  of  the  province  together  for  a  conference  on  the 
problems  and  interests  of  the  country  girl,  the  Ontario  Agricultural  College  was 
asked  to  allow  such  a  conference  to  be  held  at  the  college  in  May.  The  staff  and 
students  of  Macdonald  Institute  arranged  the  programme  and  the  Institutes 
Branch  advertised  the  conference.  Two  hundred  and  forty  girls,  practically  all 
from  farm  homes,  attended.  As  the  distance  and  cost  of  travelling  prevented  the 
girls  from  the  eastern  part  of  the  Province  attending  this  conference,  a  similar 
conference  for  eastern  Ontario  girls  was  held  at  the  Kemptville  Agricultural 
School  in  October,  the  staff  of  the  school  assisting  with  the  programme.  Fifty 
girls  attended  this  conference. 

We  believe  that,  in  addition  to  the  benefits  to  the  individual  girl,  these 
conferences  have  stimulated  the  work  of  the  Junior  Institutes  and  that  they  will 
help  in  extending  the  work. 

Summer  Series  of  Meetings 

Each  branch  Institute  is  given  an  opportunity  to  be  included  in  the  summer 
series  of  meetings  held  in  the  latter  part  of  May  and  throughout  June.  Those 
who  are  desirous  of  such  service  are  required  to  entertain  the  speaker  while  at 
the  place  of  meeting,  and  the  district  organization  pays  for  the  transportation. 
Persons  who  are  active  in  Institute  work  throughout  the  year  are  engaged  as 
lecturers  for  the  summer  series.  One  of  the  chief  objects  is  to  point  out  to  the 
officers  and  members  how  they  can  make  the  Institute  of  greatest  value  to  the 
members  of  the  community  as  a  whole. 

Among  the  subjects  dealt  with  at  the  summer  meetings  are  the  following: 

"School  Lunches  and  Other  Dietetic  Problems." 

"Feeding  the  Family  for  Health  and  Efficiency." 

"The  Food  Value  of  Milk  and  Its  Products." 

"Home  Nursing  and  First  Aid." 

"Contagious  Diseases." 

"Health  Hints." 

"How  to  Avoid  Accidents,  and  How  to  Give  First  Aid." 

"Dressing  Well  on  Small  Means." 

"Home  Millinery." 

"The  Principles  of  Dress." 

"Home  Decoration. 

"Agriculture  for  Women." 

"The  Pleasure  and  Value  of  Having  a  Hobby — Home  Handicraft  for  Girls  and  Women." 

"The  Value  of  Co-operation." 

"Bee-Keeping  for  Women." 

"The  Day's  Work. 

"The  Business  of  Being  a  Woman." 

"Making  a  Home  out  of  a  House." 

"Balancing  Our  Lives." 

"The  Interdependence  of  Town  and  Country." 

"Women's  National  Outlook." 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 39 

"Worren's  Responsibility  in  Home  and  State." 

"Some  Problems  of  the  Country  Girl  and  How  to  Solve  Them." 

"A  Girl's  Preparation  for  Life." 

"Helping  Ro>s  and  Girls  to  Find  Their  Right  LifeworK." 

"Developing  and  Protecting  Our  Girls." 

"The  Ji  nior  Woman." 

"Work  of  the  District  and  Branch  Institutes — How  to  Make  it  Most  EfTective." 

"How  to  Make  an  Efficiency  Study  of  Yourself  and  Your  Community." 

"Relation  of  the  Institute  to  the  Public  School." 

"Doing  Our  Bit  in  Community  Life." 

"Our  New  Neighbours." 

"Community  Builders  and  Personal  Responsibility." 

"Community  Work  and  Play." 

"Current  E\'ents." 

There  were  693  meetings  held  during  the  summer  series  of  1925,  in  a  number 
of  instances  the  one  meeting  serving  two  or  three  branches. 

District  Annuals 

In  each  district,  representatives  from  the  various  branches  attend  the  district 
annual,  held  usually  some  time  during  the  m.onth  of  June,  a  few  being  held  in  the 
month  of  July.  These  meetings  are  for  the  purpose  of  reviewing  the  activities  of 
the  year,  discussing  needs  and  possibilities  throughout  the  district,  formiulating 
plans  for  further  work,  electing  ofihcers,  presenting  financial  report,  and  other 
business  which  requires  the  attention  of  the  district  organization. 

A  number  of  districts  ask  for  special  speakers  well  versed  in  Institute  work 
to  attend  the  district  annuals.  Speakers  were  furnished  for  forty-nine  annuals 
during  the  past  year. 

Annual  Conventions 

The  value  to  representatives  from  large  areas  meeting  at  a  central  point  to 
report  on  activities  throughout  the  year,  to  hear  lectures  from  those  who  have 
messages  of  real  worth,  to  survey  conditions,  needs  and  possibilities,  and  to 
formulate  plans  for  future  action  was  demonstrated  at  the  annual  conventions 
which  were  held  at  Ottawa,  London,  and  Toronto  in  older  Ontario,  and  at  Rainy 
River,  the  "Soo,"  Little  Current,  Elk  Lake  and  Burk's  Falls  in  the  northern 
sections. 

The  programmes  for  these  conventions  were  arranged  through  the  co-opera- 
tion of  the  Institutes  branch  with  committees  appointed  by  the  Institutes. 
Representatives  from  the  Department  were  in  attendance  at  all  the  conventions 
to  outline  the  services  available  through  the  Departments  of  Agriculture  and 
other  branches  of  the  Government,  and  to  supplement  the  reports  presented 
by  the  delegates  with  information  as  to  what  Institutes  are  doing  in  other  parts 
of  the  Province. 

These  annual  conventions  are  a  means  of  stimulating  a  deep  interest  and 
great  enthusiasm  in  the  work,  and  are  an  important  factor  in  broadening  the 
field  of  activities  and  making  the  efforts  more  effective  in  the  interests  of  the 
whole  community. 

Water    Supply    and    Household    Conveniences    Demonstration    Truck 

A  sanitary  demonstration  truck,  equipped  with  pump,  water  supply  tank, 
bathroom  and  kitchen  fixtures  properly  installed  was  displayed  at  a  number  of 
fall  fairs,  and  at  a  few  additional  points,  between  August  27th  and  October  14th 
inclusive,  with  a  capable  sanitary  engineer  in  charge. 


40 REPORT  OF No.  21 

Sonie  of  the  places  visited  in  1925  were  included  in  the  first  itinerary  of  the 
truck  in  1923,  and  a  number  of  instances  of  installation  of  sanitary  plumbing 
as  a  result  of  the  first  visit  were  reported.  Many  farmers  were  surprised  to 
learn  that  they  could  get  complete  outfits  at  considerably  less  cost  than  is 
generally  incurred. 

Pencil  sketches  were  made  for  a  number  of  farmers  who  asked  advice  as  to 
how  sanitary  plumbing  and  water  supply  systems  could  best  be  installed  in 
their  homes,  about  their  grounds,  and  in  the  barns.  Visits  were  made  to  a 
number  of  far^ns  with  a  view  to  giving  specific  advice. 

Directions  as  to  ho\v  to  install  septic  tanks  under  conditions  met  with  were 
given,  both  in  towns  and  villages  and  country  places.  At  a  number  of  centres 
the  local  pluinbers  were  keenly  interested,  and  were  on  hand  to  take  advantage 
of  the  visit  of  the  truck,  by  getting  in  touch  with  farmers  and  others  who  con- 
templated the  installation  of  modern  equipment. 

\\'here  hydro  power  was  available  to  the  farmers,  keenest  interest  was  shown 
and  a  number  stated  that  "since  we  have  the  hydro,  we  are  now  thinking  of 
installing  conveniences  which  they  have  in  the  cities." 

A  list  of  those  sufficiently  interested  to  ask  for  trade  literature  was  m>ade, 
and  a  copy  of  this  list  was  sent  to  the  manufacturers  and  plumbing  supply  houses 
which  furnished  equipment  for  the  truck  free  of  cost  to  the  Department. 

There  is  no  doubt  but  that  this  feature  of  work  has  created  a  much  keener 
interest  in  modern  conveniences,  and  resulted  in  the  installation  of  a  considerable 
number  of  water  systems  and  modern  equipment  connected  therewith. 

Educational  Programme  at  the  Canadian  National  Exhibition 

The  Institutes  branch  and  the  Provincial  Federation  co-operate  with  the 
Federated  Women's  Institutes  of  Canada  in  making  exhibits  and  providing 
demonstrations  and  lectures  at  the  Canadian  National  Exhibition.  The  person 
in  charge  of  the  Ontario  programm.e  co-operated  with  the  general  committee  in 
planning  and  carrying  out  the  general  programme.  Among  features  emphasized 
in  the  programme  were  the  following: 

"Canada's  Babies  and  What  We  Do  for  Them." 

"What  Institutes  are  doing  to  help  Schools." 

"The  Work  of  the  Junior  Women's  Institutes  and  the  Co-operation  of  Junior  Farmers' 

Associations  and  Junior  Institutes." 
"Canadian  Literature." 

"Women  in  Agriculture — Poultry  Raising,  Dairying,  Bee-keeping,  etc." 
"Wayside  Tea  Rooms." 
"Food  Values,  Cookery  and  Dieting." 
"Canadian  Artists." 

A  number  of  demonstrations  bearing  upon  women's  work  were  given. 
Two  of  the  most  interesting  features  were:  (1)  a  house  dress  parade,  in  which 
the  competitors,  Institute  members,  wore  dresses  which  they  had  made;  and 
(2)  a  competition  among  representatives  of  Junior  Institutes  in  preparing  a 
"Well  Balanced  Meal  at  a  Reasonable  Cost." 

The  displays  from  the  various  provinces,  the  demonstrations  and  lectures 
were  of  much  educational  value,  creating  a  wide  interest  in  Institute  work. 
While  the  cost  to  the  Department  was  considerable,  the  expenditure  was  well 
worth  while. 


1926  MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE  41 


FRUIT  BRANCH 

The  season  of  1925  opened  with  bright  prospects  for  a  renewed  enthusiasm 
on  the  part  of  the  apple  orchardists  in  the  Province.  Great  interest  was  shown 
at  all  of  the  winter  meetings  carried  on  by  the  Department  of  Agriculture  and  the 
provincial  and  district  fruit  growers'  associations,  the  attendance  everywhere 
being  the  best  for  many  years.  Sales  of  spray  machinery  and  supplies  were 
very  heavy,  giving  promise  of  excellent  results  in  this  important  orchard  practice. 

Undoubtedly  the  spray  service  inaugurated  by  the  Provincial  Entomologist 
and  carried  on  in  conjunction  with  other  branches  of  the  Department  had  con- 
siderable to  do  with  renewed  interest  in  spraying.  Wide  publicity  had  been 
given  to  the  results  achieved  in  1924  and  to  the  desire  of  the  Government  to 
extend  its  activities  in  1925  to  many  more  of  the  leading  fruit  counties  of  the 
Province.  In  addition,  the  Federal  Department  of  Agriculture  announced  a 
special  spray  service  for  the  tender  fruit  sections  of  the  Niagara  Peninsula. 
This  work  was  carried  on  very  successfully  as  recorded  elsewhere  in  this  report, 
and  had  a  great  deal  to  do  with  the  high  quality  of  the  crops  produced  in  1925. 

Little  extra  expense  was  incurred,  the  services  of  men  already  in  the  employ- 
ment of  the  Department  being  utilized  wherever  possible,  and  certain  lines  of 
work  not  considered  so  valuable  being  curtailed.  Leases  on  the  last  two  of 
our  demonstration  station  orchards  expired  in  1925,  and  will  further  relieve  the 
staff  of  the  Fruit  Branch  for  spray  supervision  in  1926.  Three  additional  men 
with  cars  were  required  during  a  six  weeks'  period  to  cover  the  counties  selected 
for  this  work,  as  well  as  the  eight  county  representatives  interested,  four  of  the 
college  staff  and  five  of  the  Fruit  Branch  staff.  Special  mention  should  be  made 
of  Norfolk  County  where  the  strong  fruit  growers'  association  there  supplied 
two  men  with  cars  to  help  in  the  work. 

Exhibitions 

The  showing  made  by  the  Ontario  grov.^ers  at  the  two  big  exhibitions,  the 
Imperial  in  London  and  the  Royal  in  Toronto,  was  much  better  than  1924  when 
a  very  late  crop  of  poor  colour  seriously  interfered  with  our  overseas  ship- 
ments in  particular.  While  still  handicapped  by  the  early  dates  of  the  Imperial 
Show,  which  require  fruit  to  leave  the  first  week  in  October,  Ontario  was  able  to 
take  four  gold,  five  silver  and  four  bronze  medals  as  well  as  to  win  the  handsome 
cup  offered  for  the  best  exhibit  of  cooking  apples  in  the  Empire.  Unfortunately 
it  will  always  be  impossible  under  present  conditions  to  secure  our  winter 
varieties  at  their  best  for  this  show. 

The  Royal  Agricultural  Winter  Fair  brought  together  a  very  fine  exhibit  of 
apples  from  all  parts  of  the  Province,  some  sections  being  represented  for  the 
first  time.  Very  good  box  exhibits  were  seen  from  Prince  Edward,  Northumber- 
land, Durham  and  the  Ontario  Agricultural  College.  The  big  prize  for  com- 
mercial exhibits  was  won  for  Ontario  by  W.  L.  &  C.  Smith  of  Burlington,  with 
a  beautiful  fifty-box  lot  of  Mcintosh.  Another  outstanding  lot  of  Northern 
Spy  shown  by  Fred  Watson,  Port  Credit,  won  the  handsome  trophy  given  by 
the  Fruit  Growers'  Association  of  Ontario.  The  judges  commented  on  the 
wonderful  improvement  shown  in  the  packing  of  boxes  by  the  Ontario  exhibitors. 

Government  Overseas  Shipments 

The  season  of  1925  produced  what  was  probably  the  finest  crop  of  apples 
that  Ontario  has  ever  known.     Large  crops  grown  under  poor  weather  conditions 


42  REPORT  OF  Xo.  21 

with  consequent  bad  quality  had  been  known.  But  for  general  even  crop  of  high 
quality  in  all  parts  of  the  Province  and  in  particular  of  such  high-class  varieties 
as  Northern  Spy  and  Mcintosh,  no  year  had  seen  its  equal.  Increased  interest 
in  spraying  in  all  parts  of  the  Province,  with  ideal  weather  conditions  in  Western 
Ontario,  had  much  to  do  with  the  situation.  The  coming  into  bearing  of  many 
new  orchards  of  better  varieties  also  increased  the  crop. 

It  was  early  recognized  by  the  Department  of  Agriculture  that  the  marketing 
facilities  available  to  the  growers  would  be  hard  pressed  to  so  handle  the  crop  as 
to  bring  any  profit  back  to  the  producer.  The  south-western  part  of  the  Province 
was  fairly  well  organized,  while  co-operative  associations  were  also  scattered 
through  the  north  and  east.  Dealers  were  uncertain  as  to  the  markets,  buying 
sparingly  and  offering  what  appeared  to  be  low  prices.  Local  markets  went  to 
pieces  with  large  consignments  of  summer  varieties,  and  little  hope  was  enter- 
tained of  any  encouragement  then  till  after  the  New  Year.  Quebec  and  the 
north-west  markets  did  absorb  more  than  usual  at  fair  prices. 

The  only  outlet  possible  for  a  large  surplus  seemed  to  be  the  overseas  market 
which  had  not  been  made  use  of  by  Ontario  since  the  opening  of  the  w^ar  in  1914. 
To  decide  how  this  could  best  be  accomplished,  a  number  of  prominent  growers 
and  heads  of  shipping  associations  were  called  into  conference  with  the  Govern- 
ment, the  Prime  Minister  himself  being  present.  As  a  result,  the  Government 
decided  to  ship  to  Great  Britain  150  cars  of  apples  in  boxes  and  barrels.  In 
addition,  an  extensive  advertising  campaign  was  authorized  to  cover  not  only 
Great  Britain  but  also  Ontario,  Quebec  and  the  Prairie  Provinces. 

Under  the  conditions  drafted  by  the  Department,  all  shipments  of  apples 
were  subject  to  inspection,  every  package  being  stamped  "Inspected  and 
Approved,  Ontario  Government."  Two  grades  only,  Nos.  1  and  2,  were  accepted 
and  not  more  than  35  per  cent,  of  the  lower  grade  in  any  shipment.  Growers 
were  asked  for  straight  cars  of  any  one  of  six  varieties  as  follows:  Mcintosh, 
Spy,  King,  Greening,  Baldwin  and  Golden  Russet.  The  fruit  was  to  be  con- 
signed to  any  of  the  regular  dealers  in  Great  Britain,  the  Government  reserving 
the  right  to  divide  the  cars  between  London  (including  Southampton),  Liverpool 
and  Glasgow. 

It  was  the  intention  of  the  Government  to  divide  the  orders  for  apples  as 
equitably  as  possible  over  the  Province,  buying  where  possible  from  associations 
having  central  packing  houses,  or  large  growers  having  similar  facilities  to  ensure 
an  even  pack  of  good  quality  that  could  be  readily  inspected. 

The  prices  guaranteed  by  the  Government  were  based  on  early  sales  made 
by  growers  largely  for  western  shipment,  and  on  average  prices  realized  in  Ontario 
for  the  past  few  years.     These  w-ere  as  follows: —

Shipments  began  in  early  October  from  the  southern  part  of  the  Province  and 
uniformly  met  all  guarantees.  Profits  were  shown  on  the  first  fourteen  cars 
combined,  all  going  to  Liverpool  and  Glasgow,  with  one  exception,  a  car  of 
Mcintosh  to  London.  In  November,  shipments  were  directed  more  to  London 
as  it  was  desired  to  try  out  that  market  for  good  fruit.     This  movement  was 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 43 

hastened  because  of  the  disastrous  frost  in  late  October  which  cut  down  ship- 
ments to  about  one-third  of  the  amount  promised. 

Twenty-four  cars  including  eight  cars  of  boxed  fruit  were  sold  in  London 
and  Southampton  by  five  different  firms  and  in  no  instance  did  the  net  returns 
equal  the  guarantee.  Our  best  quality  varieties,  Mcintosh  and  Spy,  were 
heavily  discounted,  one  firm  stating  frankly  that  the  Mcintosh  was  not  favour- 
ably known  or  wanted  in  London.  The  heaviest  losses  were  incurred  on  three 
cars  of  barrelled  Mcintosh,  though  Spies  also  brought  low  prices. 

Apparently  this  important  market  is  made  the  dumping  ground,  not  only 
of  tremendous  quantities  of  low  grade,  home-grown  fruit  but  also  similar  quality 
fruit  from  other  parts  of  the  world.  Most  of  the  English  fruit  is  grown  within 
trucking  distance  of  London  and  as  the  bulk  of  it  is  of  low  grade,  depresses  the 
market  in  the  same  manner  as  the  Toronto  market  is  depressed  under  these 
conditions. 

Of  the  twenty-seven  cars  sent  to  Liverpool  and  Glasgow  markets,  as  already 
stated,  the  first  thirteen  cars  covered  the  guarantee.  From  the  middle  of 
November  on,  the  markets  were  depressed  due  to  large  quantities  of  low  grade 
and  frozen  fruit  sent  forward  from  America,  and  prices  never  fully  recovered. 
Greenings  did  better  than  other  kinds,  and  since  the  New  Year  good  cold  storage 
Greenings  have  been  getting  fine  prices. 

Boxed  apples  were  well  received  on  the  Glasgow  markets,  but  brought  poor 
prices  in  London,  just  like  barrels.  In  one  instance,  part  of  a  carload  w^as  re- 
shipped  from  London  to  Glasgow  to  find  sale.  The  larger  sizes  in  all  markets 
were  discounted  to  the  extent  of  from  two  to  four  shillings  per  box,  showing  what 
has  been  before  brought  to  the  attention  of  the  Department  that  these  markets 
demand  small  sizes  in  all  dessert  varieties,  and  even  in  cooking  or  culinary 
sorts  do  not  want  the  extra  large  fruits.  A  difference  of  four  shillings  per  box 
was  noted  between  the  sizes  68  to  88  and  the  mailer  sizes  150  to  188  in  one  ship- 
ment of  Kings  to  Glasgow,  while  London  refused  Mcintosh  larger  than  150  to 
the  case. 

The  frost  already  referred  to  prevented  further  shipments  from  the  storages 
in  the  Georgian  Bay  District  and  along  the  Lake  Ontario  shore  in  Northumber- 
land and  Durham.  It  also  prevented  any  extensive  shipments  of  Northern  Spy, 
only  four  cars  of  this  variety  going  forward.  For  the  same  reason  very  few 
Golden  Russets  were  obtained.  While  the  Spy  is  not  favourably  received  over- 
seas, the  Russet  is  the  best  seller  of  all  Ontario  varieties,  and  it  is  to  be  regretted 
that  more  were  not  available. 

One  of  the  most  interesting  results  of  these  shipments  was  the  information 
gathered  as  to  the  variation  in  charges  on  the  various  markets  and  by  different 
dealers  on  the  same  market.  By  study  of  these  figures,  growers  and  associations 
can  undoubtedly  add  several  dollars  per  car  to  their  returns.  Commission 
charges  varied  from  3  per  cent,  to  6  per  cent.  Expenses  per  package  also  showed 
a  wide  range,  while  sterling  exchange  returns  did  not  always  favour  the  shipper. 
In  this  connection,  London  not  only  gave  the  lowest  prices  but  also  had  the 
heaviest  charges.  Liverpool  was  the  hardest  market  to  satisfy  as  to  tightness 
of  pack,  with  London  and  Glasgow  more  easily  satisfied,  From  one  season's 
experiments,  Ontario  could  well  confine  her  exports  to  Liverpool,  Machester 
and  Glasgow,  leaving  the  southern  markets  to  other  shippers. 

When  the  frost  so  greatly  reduced  the  size  of  the  Ontario  crop,  the  adver- 
tising campaign  which  was  being  carried  on  in  all  markets  was  modified. 
Thousands  of  window  posters  of  fine  design  had  already  been  sent  out,  but  the 


44 REPORT  OF No.  21 

newspaper  advertisements  were  restricted.  It  is  greatly  regretted  that  w^hat 
promised  to  be  such  a  promising  season  for  Ontario  apple  growers  should  have 
such  a  disastrous  ending. 

WORK  UNDER  PROVINCIAL  ENTOMOLOGIST 

Orchard  Inspection. — This  work  has  been  continued  as  in  previous  years 
with  the  exception  that  the  illness  and  death  of  W.  E.  Biggar,  the  Provincial 
Fruit  Pest  Inspector,  made  it  necessary  for  the  Provincial  Entomologist  to  take 
personal  charge,  especially  after  the  middle  of  July,  of  the  work  that  Mr.  Biggar 
had  personally  been  doing. 

The  Inspection  of  Nursery  Stock  and  Fumigating  of  the  Same.  There 
is  nothing  new  in  either  of  these  lines  to  report  other  than  that  the  work  has  gone 
along  quickly  and  in  a  satisfactory  manner. 

Spray  Supervision. — Spray  supervision  work,  begun  experimentally  in 
one  county  in  1924,  was  greatly  enlarged  in  1925,  the  following  counties  being 
included  in  the  service  that  year — Prince  Edward,  Northumberland,  Durham, 
Norfolk,  parts  of  Halton,  Huron,  Grey  and  parts  of  Simcoe.  In  addition  to  the 
agricultural  representatives  in  these  counties  who  helped  as  far  as  they  possibly 
could  seven  men  acted  as  supervisors.  Nearly  all  of  these  were  from  the  Fruit 
Branch  or  the  Agricultural  College.  The  general  charge  of  the  work  was  assigned 
to  the  Provincial  Entomologist  who  was  assisted  by  the  hearty  co-operation  of 
the  Professor  of  Botany.  Before  the  spraying  began  all  the  supervisors  met  at 
the  Agricultural  College  near  the  end  of  March  and  received  instruction  in 
spraying  and  in  the  various  phases  of  the  subject  with  which  they  had  to  deal. 

The  results  of  the  supervision  were  very  satisfactory — for  the  Province  up 
to  the  end  of  September  had  the  cleanest  and  largest  crop  of  apples  which  there 
had  been  for  many  years.  Unfortunately  the  very  prolonged  wet  weather  of 
September  and  October  caused  a  considerable  outbreak  of  apple  scab  at  picking 
time  and  in  storage  after  picking  and  the  exceptionally  early  frost  destroyed 
enormous  numbers  of  excellent  w^inter  apples,  a  large  part  of  them  being  Spys. 
These  two  utterly  unexpected  things  will  proably  have  discouraged  a  number  of 
men  for  the  coming  season  who  would  otherwise  have  been  enthusiastic  fruit 
growers. 

European  Corn  Borer. — The  investigation  of  this  insect  has  been  con- 
tinued and  a  good  deal  of  further  information,  especially  on  the  effect  of  weather 
upon  its  increase  or  decrease,  has  been  obtained. 

In  October  a  revised  circular  on  control  measures  for  the  corn  borer  was 
published  and  widely  distributed. 

The  borer  still  presents  a  very  great  problem  and  one  exceedingly  difficult 
to  solve,  especially  in  the  Counties  of  Essex  and  Kent,  where  the  method  of 
growing  and  handling  corn  give  it  great  opportunities  to  increase. 

A  machine  for  crushing  the  borers  in  stubble  is  to  be  tested  out  in  Essex 
and  Kent  in  the  month  of  February  or  March.  This  machine  has  been  invented 
by  the  International  Harvester  Company  and  may  possibly  after  it  has  been 
improved  lead  to  some  device  which  will  make  control  in  these  two  counties  very 
much  easier  than  at  present. 

Further  tests  of  old  implements  and  new  ones  will  be  made  in  the  month 
of  March. 

Investigation  Work  Other  Than  Corn  Borer. — The  chief  investigation 
this  year  was  the  study  of  the  striped  cucumber  beetle  which  has  been  going  on 
for  the  last  three  years  whenever  opportunity  permitted.     The  work  has  now 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 45 

been  all  completed  except  to  test  out  three  new  insecticides  which  have  only 
recently  come  into  prominence  and  two  of  which  could  not  be  secured  last  year. 
Addresses  were  given  on  spraying  at  all  the  main  fruit  meetings  last  winter 
and  at  some  small  ones  wherever  opportunity  made  it  possible.  Addresses  were 
also  given  on  the  corn  borer  and  other  entomological  subjects  and  many  articles 
supplied  to  the  press. 

HORTICULTURAL  EXPERIMENT  STATION 

The  constantly  increasing  number  of  visitors  to  the  station  is  very  gratifying, 
indicating  as  it  does  a  growing  interest  in  the  work  of  the  station  and  an  appre- 
ciation of  the  results  already  obtained.  Most  of  the  visitors  are  fruit  growers 
of  the  Niagara  District  and  other  nearby  fruit  districts.  Each  year,  however, 
sees  an  increasing  number  from  more  distant  parts  of  the  Province  and  from 
various  of  the  states  to  the  south. 

The  first  summer  meeting  of  the  Niagara  Peninsula  Fruit  Growers'  Associa- 
tion was  held  on  the  station  grounds  in  August  of  1925.  The  meeting  was  very 
well  attended,  300  or  more  growers  with  their  families  being  present.  Prof.  V.  R. 
Gardner,  of  Michigan,  and  other  speakers  addressed  the  growers,  following  which 
a  tour  of  the  various  experimental  and  plant  breeding  projects  was  made. 

Plant  Breeding 

Distribution  of  Plant  Material. — In  the  spring  of  1925,  3,000  plants  of 
Vanguard  strawberry  and  30,000  of  Viking  raspberry  were  distributed.  A 
further  10,000  plants  of  Viking  were  distributed  in  the  fall.  Further  distribution 
will  be  made  in  1926,  though  on  a  somewhat  different  basis  than  heretofore. 
Distribution  up  to  fifty  plants  to  each  individual  will  be  free.  Those  desiring 
plants  in  semi-commercial  and  commercial  quantities  will  be  charged  at  the  rate 
of  $30  per  thousand. 

To  date  requests  for  V^iking  have  been  received  and  filled^  for  the  following 
points  outside  Ontario — British  Columbia,  Manitoba,  Quebec,  Prince  Edward 
Island,  New  York,  New  Jersey,  Maryland,  Connecticut,  Pennsylvania,  Virginia, 
Michigan,  Iowa  and  France.  About  six  thousand  plants  in  all  have  been  sent  to 
these  outside  points. 

Distribution  of  Vedette  and  Valiant  peaches  has  been  discontinued  as 
several  Ontario  nurseries  are  now  propagating  them  and  offering  for  sale.  Com- 
mercial plantings  are  being  made  throughout  the  Niagara  District  as  stock 
becomes  available.  Requests  for  trees  of  these  varieties  have  been  received 
from  many  outside  points  also,  including  British  Columbia,  New  York, 
Massachusetts,  New  Jersey,  Michigan  and  Missouri. 

New  Varieties  of  Fruits. — A  seedling  peach,  No.  1940208  (a  cross  of  Vaughan, 
our  hardiest  seedling,  with  Early  Elberta)  gives  excellent  promise  as  a  variety 
to  precede  Elberta  by  about  a  week.  It  will  fill  in  the  season  between  Valiant 
and  Elberta.  Like  Vedette  and  Valiant  it  is  a  peach  of  the  general  type  of 
Elberta,  but  is  globular  in  shape  and  of  higher  quality.  It  is,  of  course,  a  yellow 
flesh,  freestone. 

Experimental  Work 

Mention  will  be  made  only  of  those  problems  in  which  the  1925  results 
permit  of  fairly  definite  conclusions  being  drawn. 

Plum  Pollination. — The  results  of  plum  sterility  tests  are  noted  and  dis- 
cussed in  some  detail  in  the  recent  revision  of  the  Department  Bulletin  on  Plum 


46 REPORT  OF No.  21 

Culture.  Two  seasons  work  with  sixteen  of  the  leading  commercial  varieties 
indicates  the  following — Arch  Duke,  Golden  Drop,  Hand,  Imperial  Gage  and 
Washington  may  be  classed  as  completely  self-sterile.  Also  Reine  Claude  and 
Duane  Purple  should  be  classed  as  self-sterile  from  a  practical  standpont. 
None  of  these  varieties  should  be  planted  in  solid  blocks  of  one  variety.  Mixed 
plantings  should  be  made  to  insure  cross-pollination.  Other  varieties  as  Grand 
Duke,  Yellow  Egg  and  Monarch  are  on  the  borderline.  Mixed  plantings  are 
recommended.  The  remaining  varieties  tested,  Italian  Prune,  Gueii,  Lombard 
and  the  Damsons  may  be  classed  as  sufficiently  self-fertile  to  insure  fair  crops  in 
solid  plantings  of  one  variety.  Even  w^ith  these  varieties,  however,  it  may  be  well 
to  make  assurance  doubly  sure  by  planting  two  or  more  varieties  together. 

Thinning  of  Plums. — Three  years' results  of  an  experiment  in  plum  thinning 
are  included  in  the  plum  bulletin  already  referred  to.  Briefly  the  experiment 
shows  that  (1)  Trees  carrying  heavy  unthinned  crops  are  more  subject  to  winter 
injury  than  trees  on  which  the  number  of  fruits  has  been  reduced  by  proper 
thinning.  (2)  Size  and  quality  of  fruit  are  improved  by  thinning,  the  amount 
of  improvement  being  proportional  to  the  original  load  carried ;  the  heavier  the 
original  load,  the  greater  the  benefit  from  thinning.  (3)  Proper  thinning  reduces 
the  total  weight  of  crop  little,  if  at  all.  The  thinned  tree  carries  fewer  fruits  of 
larger  size.  (4)  Thinned  trees  mature  their  fruit  from  two  to  five  days  in  advance 
of  heavily  laden  unthinned  trees.  In  addition  all  the  fruit  matures  at  practically 
one  time,  whereas  heavily  laden  unthinned  trees  incline  to  mature  their  fruit  over 
a  long  period,  necessitating  more  than  one  picking.  (5)  The  economic  value  of 
plum  thinning  is  probably  proportional  to  the  crop  carried.  \'arieties  which 
naturally  load  moderately  will  benefit  least.  With  varieties,  or  in  seasons  in 
which  heavy  sets  are  experienced,  proper  thinning  is  an  advantageous  practice. 

Nursery  Stock  Identification. — This  investigation  has  now  been  carried  to  the 
point  where  it  has  been  possible  to  extend  a  definite  service  to  the  nurseryman 
and  fruit  grower.  In  1925  there  was  established  a  system  of  nursery  stock 
inspection  and  certification  whereby  such  stock  was  certified  to  be  true  to  name 
as  it  existed  in  the  nursery  row.  Practically  all  nurseries  in  the  Province  availed 
themselves  of  this  service. 

Inspection  was  limited  to  commercial  varieties  of  apples,  pears,  plums, 
peaches  and  cherries.  A  total  of  856,100  trees,  constituting  practically  all  of 
the  saleable  nursery  stock  of  these  fruits  in  Ontario,  was  inspected.  The  mixtures 
amounted  to  about  13,000  saleable  trees  or  one  and  one-half  per  cent,  of  the  total. 
Considering  the  opportunities  for  error  in  the  various  nursery  operations  this  is 
a  remarkably  good  record.  Based  on  total  saleable  stock  the  lowest  percentage 
of  mixtures  in  any  nursery  was  three-tenths  of  one  per  cent,  and  the  highest 
13  per  cent.  All  trees  untrue  to  name  were  eliminated  in  the  nursery  either  by 
breaking  down,  or,  where  possible,  labelling  with  the  correct  name. 

Extension 

During  the  season  a  total  of  over  600  visits  were  made  to  individual  fruit 
growers.  These  visits  were  mainly  in  the  Niagara  District  though  there  are 
included  a  considerable  number  outside  this  district.  Some  thirty  short  courses, 
fruit  and  vegetable  growers'  meetings,  etc.,  were  attended  by  various  members 
uf  the  station  staff,  and  lectures  and  addresses  given  on  various  horticultural 
topics.  Fruit  judges  were  supplied  for  the  school  fairs  in  Lincoln  County  and 
some  outside  points.

Twelve  demonstrations  were  given  in  the  pruning  and  grafting  of  apples. 
In  addition  several  definite  extension  projects  in  the  topworking  of  plums, 
sweet  cherries  and  peaches  were  inaugurated  or  extended.  In  plums  this  work 
includes  229  trees  in  eleven  different  orchards.  In  sweet  cherries  290  trees  in 
twenty-four  different  orchards  have  been  topworked  either  by  budding  or 
grafting.  This  work  has  been  done  either  wholly  by  the  station  or  under  its 
instruction.     Careful  observation  of  these  trees  will  be  made  from  year  to  year. 

Bulletin  309  on  Nut  Culture  has  been  prepared  and  published.  In  addition 
several  circulars  were  sent  out  to  growers  as  follows: — - 

No.  29 — Pruning  Bearing  Fruit  Trees. 
No.  30 — A  Circular  on  Circulars. 
No.  31— Will  it  Pay  to  Thin  Plums. 
No.      — Topworking  Sweet  Cherry  Trees. 

Many  articles  on  horticultural  topics  were  sent  to  horticultural  journals  and 
to  the  press  generally.  Many  hundred  telephone  and  correspondence  inquiries 
were  received  and  answered. 


Work  with  Vegetables 

Tomatoes. — It  is  now  generally  recognized  that  with  outdoor  tomatoes,  at 
least,  increased  yields  result  from  the  use  of  crossed  or  hybrid  seed.  The  1925 
greenhouse  crop  very  clearly  indicates  that  the  same  thing  holds  true  for  indoor 
grown  tomatoes.     The  following  figures  may  be  given: —

The  economic  aspect  of  the  increased  earliness  of  hybrid  seed  over  regular 
seed  should  also  be  noted.  It  is  of  great  importance  in  greenhouse  work  that 
indooD crops  be  satisfactorily  grown  in  as  short  a  time  as  possible. 

In  outdoor  tomatoes,  the  breeding  work  has  given  rise  to  several  promising 
new  varieties  of  which  two  in  particular  seem  outstanding.  One  of  these  is  a 
cross  of  Bonny  Best  and  Wealthy,  and  the  other,  Bonny  Best  and  Prosperity. 
Both  hybrids  are  early  varieties,  improvement  in  early  varieties  being  the  object 
of  the  breeding  work. 

In  the  tomato  variety  tests,  the  Norfolk  and  the  Canadian  show  up  as  good 
commercial  varieties,  smooth  and  early. 

Rhubarb. — Several  promising  seedlings  have  been  selected  and  are  being 
increased.  In  these  selections  forcing  qualities  have  been  the  main  considera- 
tion. A  variety  from  the  C.E.F.,  Ottawa,  well  adapted  to  forcing,  has  been 
received.     The  stalks  are  a  solid  red  colour  as  grown  outdoors. 

Other  Vegetables. — Selection  work  in  carrots,  beets  and  onions  has  resulted 
in  the  production  of  improved  strains  of  these  vegetables,  which  now  come  very 
uniform  in  type.  It  should  be  possible  to  distribute  seed  of  some  of  these 
selections  in  the  near  future  for  trial  purposes. 

In  melons  the  Golden  Champlain  has  proved  to  be  one  of  the  best  earlies, 
while  the  Oka  still  holds  its  own  as  an  excellent  main  crop  variety. 


48  REPORT  OF  No.  21 


DAIRY  BRANCH 

The  past  year  has  been  one  of  the  best  years  in  the  history  of  the  dairy 
industry  of  the  Province. 

From  a  standpoint  of  production  the  season  was  particularly  favourable  in 
Eastern  Ontario,  where  the  greater  percentage  of  the  cheese  is  produced.  In  some 
other  sections  of  the  Province  there  was  a  shortage  of  moisture,  which  reduced 
production  to  a  certain  limited  extent.  It  will  be  noticed,  however,  that  there 
was  an  increase  in  both  cheese  and  butter  as  compared  with  the  previous  year. 
The  markets  proved  strong,  and  the  season  was  therefore  notable  for  a  maximum 
of  production  with  good  prices.  The  record  in  both  volume  and  value  may  be 
better  understood  from  figures  on  the  attached  sheet  for  the  past  two  seasons: —

WORK  OF  THE  DEPARTMENT 

In  connection  with  the  work  of  the  Department,  the  most  important 
development  was  the  appointment  of  a  full  time  Director  of  Dairying.  In  the  past 
this  work  has  been  associated  with  another  branch,  but  henceforth  it  will  receive 
the  full  time  and  attention  of  a  man  well  qualified  to  perform  the  duties  of 
supervising  and  assisting  in  the  developing  of  the  dairy  industry. 


1926  MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE  49 

An  urgent  request  was  made  by  the  creamerymen  of  the  Province  that 
some  steps  be  taken  to  inaugurate  a  system  of  cream  grading  at  creameries. 
With  this  in  view  it  was  deemed  advisable  to  employ  six  additional  creamery 
instructors  to  conduct  a  campaign  on  cream  grading  during  the  season  of  1925. 
It  is  very  gratifying  to  report  that  this  work  was  received  by  the  creamerymen 
in  a  splendid  spirit  and  they  have  given  this  branch  their  hearty  support  and 
co-operation  in  preparing  for  cream  grading.  The  instructors  report  that  prac- 
tically every  creamery  in  the  Province  will  be  in  a  portion  to  commence  grading 
cream  intelligently  as  soon  as  the  necessary  legislation  is  passed. 

252  creameries  were  in  operation  in  1925. 
220  creameries  are  equipped  to  pasteurize  cream. 
121  creameries  pasteurized  all  the  cream,  and 
43  creameries  pasteurized  part  of  the  cream. 
86,597  patrons  supplied  cream  to  the  creameries. 

An  effort  was  made  to  secure  some  information  in  regard  to  the  quality  of  the 
cream  being  delivered  to  the  creameries  according  to  the  proposed  standards  for 
grading.  A  record  was  kept  of  all  the  cream  graded  by  the  instructors  for  six 
weeks  following  July  15th  and  it  was  found  that  about  45  per  cent,  was  under 
first  grade.  This  shows  very  plainly  the  need  for  some  system  that  will  improve 
the  quality  of  the  cream  delivered  to  the  creameries.  The  chief  instructor  reports 
that  there  are  quite  a  number  of  creameries  which  still  need  improvement  in  the 
equipment  and  sanitary  condition.  Creameries  using  cream  buying  stations  for 
getting  their  supply  of  cream  averaged  42.31  per  cent,  first  grade  butter. 
Creameries  not  using  any  buying  stations  averaged  66.97  per  cent,  first  grade 
butter.  This  indicates  that  the  buying  station  as  at  present  conducted  is  a  bad 
thing  for  our  butter  industry. 


Butter  Grading 

The  butter  grading  station  was  operated  on  practically  the  same  system  as  in 
previous  years.  One  hundred  and  eight  creameries  sent  samples  for  grading, 
which  is  nine  more  than  in  1924.  The  number  of  churnings  graded  was  16,679, 
which  is  slightly  under  the  number  graded  in  1924.  This  may  be  accounted 
for  by  an  increase  in  the  quantity  of  butter  exported  and  graded  by  the  Federal 
Department,  and  also  to  an  advancing  market  which  always  makes  marketing 
easier.  Samples  of  the  butter  graded  were  forwarded  to  the  Department  of 
Bacteriology,  Guelph,  for  yeast  and  mold  counts.  This  has  been  done  for  three 
years  and  the  following  figures  show  the  improvement  being  made  in  keeping 
the  creameries  free  from  these  germs: — 

Week  of  July  15th,  1921,  average  yeast  count  37  creameries,  18352  per  cent. 
Week  of  July  15th,  1924,  average  yeast  count  60  creameries,  8,102  per  cent. 
Week  of  July  15th,  1925,  average  yeast  count  63  creameries,    3,875  per  cent. 

At  the  British  Farmers'  Association  Dairy  Show,  London,  England,  Leslie 
Burrow,  West  Sutton,  won  third  prize,  and  A.  R.  Matheson,  Rosedale  Creamery, 
Kitchener,  was  highly  recommended  in  a  class  of  sixty-two  competitors. 

At  the  large  exhibitions  in  Ontario  the  creamerymen  of  the  Province  were 
more  successful  in  winning  prizes  than  ever  before.

These  were  divided  into  thirty-five  groups  with  an  instructor  over  each 
group.  In  addition  to  giving  instruction,  the  instructors  tested  the  patrons' 
composite  samples  of  milk  monthly  at  690  factories;  the  factories  paying  fifty 
cents  per  patron  for  the  season's  testing.  Up  to  December  31st  the  revenue 
received  from  testing  was  $12,630.54.  The  number  of  patrons  supplying  milk 
to  the  cheese  factories  was  31,247,  which  is  1,000  more  than  in  1924.  The 
pounds  of  milk  delivered  to  the  factories  in  Eastern  and  Northern  Ontario  from 
May  1st  to  October  31st  was  988,969,667,  nearly  100,000,000  pounds  increase 
over  1924.  The  total  make  of  cheese  for  the  same  period  was  88,982,390  pounds, 
an  increase  of  over  11,000,000  pounds  above  1924.  In  Western  Ontario  it  is 
estimated  that  the  output  will  be  about  20,300,000  pounds,  an  increase  of  about 
1,200,000  pounds  over  1924.  The  average  selling  price  of  cheese  was  between 
four  and  five  cents  per  pound  higher  than  in  1924. 

The  Federal  grading  of  cheese  for  1925  shows  an  increase  of  2.1  per  cent, 
in  special  and  first  grade  cheese  over  1924.  The  following  table  taken  from  the

There  is  very  great  room  for  improvement  in  the  quality  of  the  milk  supplied 
to  the  cheese  factories.  Too  much  tainted  and  over-ripe  milk  is  being  delivered 
and  our  cheese-makers  do  not  always  receive  the  support  they  should  get  from 
factory  owners  and  milk  producers  in  rejecting  such  milk.  The  elimination  of 
the  inefficient  and  careless  maker  and  the  improvement  of  the  milk  supply  are  the 
two  big  problems  in  our  cheese  industry. 

The  instructors  report  that  there  was  more  effort  made  in  1925  to  improve 
the  buildings  and  equipment  in  the  cheese  factories  than  ever  before.  The 
"Farmer  s  Advocate  Competition"  for  the  beautification  of  cheese  factories  in 
Eastern  Ontario  had  a  good  effect  in  improving  the  appearance  of  many  factories. 
Some  of  the  most  ordinary  surroundings  were  turned  into  real  beauty  spots  by 
planting  trees,  shrubs,  flowers,  and  making  lawns.  The  installation  of  septic 
tanks  and  cement  roadways  around  the  whey  tanks  at  the  factories  is  doing 
much  to  improve  the  appearance  and  sanitary  conditions. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 51 

Checking  Milk  and  Cream  Tests 

The  check  test  inspectors  made  14,589  check  tests  at  cream  buying  stations, 
cheese  factories,  creameries,  milk  powder  and  milk  condensing  plants.  Per 
man  employed  this  is  the  most  expensive  work  in  the  branch  and  at  the  same 
time  the  most  disagreeable.  It  is  a  pity  that  so  much  money  must  be  spent 
in  an  endeavour  to  prevent  factory  men  who  should  be  above  reproach  from 
carrying  on  questionable  practices  in  testing  milk  and  cream.  This  work  has 
no  influence  whatever  on  the  quality  of  the  cheese  and  butter.  The  only  tangible 
result  is,  the  testing  is  done  in  a  more  uniform  manner.

Special  dairy  courses  were  held  in  January,  February  and  March.

REPORT  OF 


No.  21 


CO-OPERATION  AND  MARKETS  BRANCH 

Since  the  enactment  of  Part  XI  A  of  The  Ontario  Companies  Act  a  total  of 
268  co-operatives  have  been  incorporated  thereunder. 

Part  XI  A  contains  a  legal  definition  of  a  co-operative  organization  and 
among  other  things,  provides  that  the  surplus  funds  of  such  organizations  be 
divided  among  the  shareholders  or  patrons  on  the  basis  of  trade  rather  than  on 
the  basis  of  capital  invested.  It  has  not  been  possible  up  to  date,  to  determine 
how  many  of  this  total  of  268  co-operatives  are  still  in  existence.  A  number  were 
short  lived  and  some  few  never  operated  as  a  business  at  all.  Among  the  latter 
are  to  be  found  some  of  the  local  organizations  formed  for  the  purpose  of  forming 
the  projected  Ontario  Dairy  Products,  Limited,  a  company  designed  for  the 
marketing  of  Ontario  cheese,  but  as  this  company  did  not  operate,  the  incor- 
porated locals  have  largely  ceased  to  have  any  significance  as  co-operatives.  The 
mortalit}^  among  co-operatives  would  appear  to  be  large  but  probably  no  larger 
than  among  other  types  of  business,  and  examination  of  failures  reveals  the  fact 
also,  that  causes  of  failures  among  co-operatives  are  fundamentally  the  same 
which  afifect  other  types  of  business.  That  is  to  say,  the  method  of  dividing 
surplus  funds  and  other  co-operative  provisions  have  not  been  the  reason  of 
failure,  but  inadequate  financing,  improper  management  and  other  well  known 
business  causes.  Gene  ally  speaking,  it  might  be  stated  that  the  lack  of  success 
among  co-operatives  has  been  mainly  with  the  small  concerns,  which,  due  to 
their  lack  of  volume  of  business,  are  unable  to  attract  either  sufficient  capital  or 
competent  management. 

During  the  year  the  following  have  been  incorporated  under  the  Ontario 
Companies  Act: —

Of  the  above,  four  are  for  the  marketing  of  fruit,  two  are  co-operative 
creameries.  The  London  District  Co-operative  Milk  Producers,  Limited,  is 
in  process  of  organization,  for  the  purpose  of  marketing  fluid  milk.  It  is  not  the 
purpose  of  the  producers  to  distribute  milk  to  the  consumers  but  to  sell  to  the 
distributors.  This  is  the  second  such  organization  in  the  Province.  The 
Essex  County  Co-operative  Milk  Producers,  Limited,  organized  in  1923  is  also 
operating  on  this  basis. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 53 

From  Manitoulin  Island  are  shipped  a  considerable  quantity  of  turkeys  each 
year.  A  year  or  so  ago  a  carload  was  sent  out  by  a  group  of  producers  on  an 
experimental  basis.  The  experiment  was  successful  with  the  result  that  the 
Manitoulin  Co-operative  Turkey  Growers'  Association  was  organized  during 
the  year  and  at  Thanksgiving  this  company  will  ship  co-operatively  at  least  two 
car  loads  of  turkeys  to  the  American  market.  As  with  other  co-operatives  of  a 
similar  nature,  co-operative  marketing  has  had  a  marked  elTect  on  the  improve- 
ment of  quality  of  turkeys  produced  and  shipped. 

The  progress  of  the  older  and  more  established  co-operative  marketing 
organizations  in  the  Province  is  being  maintained.  In  previous  reports  reference 
has  been  made  to  the  Ontario  Honey  Producers  Co-operative,  Limited.  Through 
this  company  a  large  number  of  the  marketing  problems  of  the  honey  producers 
has  been  solved.  The  natural  result  of  such  a  condition,  of  course,  is  a  consider- 
able increase  in  production  and  no  doubt  the  company  will  have  to  maintain  its 
efficient  methods  of  marketing  to  properly  care  for  such  increased  production. 
At  the  present  time,  the  shareholders  number  L018  and  the  total  crop  to  be 
marketed  by  the  company  this  year  will  amount  to  approximately  7,250,000 
pounds  and  an  additional  1,000,000  pounds  sold  locally  by  the  individual  share- 
holders. Foreign  markets  are  being  constantly  expanded  and  at  the  present 
time,  Ontario  Beekist  Honey  is  going  to  Great  Britain,  Holland,  Germany, 
Sweden,  Norway  and  the  British  West  Indies. 

The  Canadian  Co-operative  Wool  Growers  is  also  maintaining  its  reputation 
for  efficient  marketing.  The  total  amount  of  wool  handled  by  this  company 
last  year  was  3,527,824  pounds,  of  which  Ontario  contributed  740,327  pounds. 
Some  4,300  producers  of  wool  in  the  Province  of  Ontario  market  this  amount  of 
wool  through  the  co-operative  company.  The  previous  year  4,024  producers 
marketed  655,506  pounds.  The  steady  increase  is  shown  by  the  number  of 
shippers  as  follows:    1922,  3,222;    1923,  3,723;    1924,  4,024;    1925,  4,300. 

In  our  report  of  last  year,  mention  was  made  of  the  latest  commodity 
organization  organized  on  a  province-wide  basis,  that  of  the  Turnip  Growers. 
This  company  is  known  as  The  Ontario  Turnip  Growers'  Co-operative,  Limited. 
The  first  year's  business  of  this  company  turned  out  fairly  satisfactorily.  During 
the  year,  however,  the  company,  through  its  board  of  directors,  and  ratified 
by  the  shareholders,  changed  its  system  of  marketing.  Previously  the  company 
sold  turnips  by  making  direct  connections  with  brokers  in  various  markets  in  the 
United  States.  The  Federated  Fruit  and  \^egetable  Growers'  Exchange  is  a 
co-operative  concern  which  acts  as  broker  or  agent  for  a  number  of  commodity 
organizations  in  the  United  States.  This  company  was  organized  as  the  result 
of  an  investigation  of  a  committee  appointed  by  the  United  States  Farm  Bureau 
Federation.  As  practically  all  of  the  table  turnips  produced  in  Ontario  are 
marketed  in  the  United  States,  the  directors  felt  that  it  would  be  a  good  policy 
to  use  this  co-operative  concern  which  was  in  close  touch  with  practically  all 
United  States  markets,  and  the  Federated  Exchange  was  made  the  exclusive 
sales  agent  of  the  turnip  growers.  During  the  year  the  head  office  of  the  com- 
pany was  moved  to  Gait  in  Waterloo  County,  which  is  a  more  central  point  for 
the  turnip  area.  The  prices  of  other  vegetables,  such  as  potatoes,  cabbage,  etc., 
have  an  effect  on  the  turnip  market.  This  year  it  would  appear  that  potatoes 
will  be  scarce,  and  indications  point  to  high  prices  for  turnips.  Unfortunately, 
however,  dry  weather  and  heavy  frosts  occurred  before  the  crop  was  harvested 
and  this  may  have  a  very  serious  effect  on  the  quality.  If  shipments  prove  that 
the  quality  has  been  impaired,  it  will  no  doubt  have  a  detrimental  effect  on 


54 REPORT  OF No.  21 

shipments  and  prices.  The  company  which  is  still  in  the  experimental  stage 
is  endeavouring  to  maintain  the  reputation  it  gained  last  year  in  the  matter  of 
quality. 

The  fruit  marketing  situation  in  the  Province  appears  to  be  improving. 
In  the  Niagara  Peninsula  a  number  of  local  organizations  are  taking  the  place 
of  the  Niagara  Peninsula  Growers,  which  ceased  operation  in  1924.  Some  of 
the  older  local  organizations  have  been  revived  and  additional  ones  organized. 
In  some  of  the  apple  sections  also  there  is  a  revival  of  interest  in  production  and 
marketing.  Better  care  is  being  taken  in  spraying,  cultural  methods,  etc.,  and 
this  year  there  would  appear  to  be  a  large  crop  of  apples  unusually  free  from  scab 
and  other  defects.  Unfortunately  apple  growers  are  not  yet  provincially 
organized  for  marketing  purposes,  but  the  situation  this  year  may  have  some 
effect  in  bringing  a  realization  of  necessity  for  more  thorough  control  of  the 
marketing  machinery.  The  Department  this  year  is  assisting  through  adver- 
tising and  other  ways  in  moving  the  exceptionally  large  crop. 

The  egg  marketing  situation  also  appears  to  be  improving.  The  quality 
of  eggs  marketed  has  been  improving  from  year  to  year  and  consequently  con- 
sumption has  largely  increased.  In  Oxford  County,  egg  production  and  market- 
ing has  been  an  important  feature  of  their  agriculture.  A  central  company  has 
been  organized  for  local  egg  circles,  with  headquarters  at  Woodstock.  Here  a 
warehouse  and  candling  station  has  been  constructed  and  other  equipment 
acquired  and  a  regular  business  of  eggs  and  poultry  has  been  carried  on.  The 
eggs  are  gathered  on  the  egg  case  plan,  each  producer  being  paid  according  to  the 
quality  of  his  deliveries.  Since  this  system  of  marketing  was  established,  there 
has  been  a  large  increase  in  the  number  of  select  eggs  delivered.  Producers 
are  culling  their  flocks  and  giving  as  much  detailed  attention  to  their  birds  as  to 
their  cows.  The  company  also  maintains  a  fattening  station  and  markets  live 
birds  at  Toronto,  Buffalo  and  other  markets.  The  company  is  planning  to 
instal  a  mammoth  incubator  and  distribute  live  chicks  to  its  members,  from 
blood  tested  flocks.  An  indication  of  the  quality  of  the  eggs  produced  is  that 
the  company  has  for  successive  years  won  the  medal  at  the  London  Dairy  Show 
in  competition  with  colonial  exhibits  from  the  British  Empire. 

Many  other  instances  could  be  given  of  progress  being  made  by  various 
co-operatives  in  the  Province.  The  largest  creamery  in  Canada,  producing  over 
2,500,000  pounds  of  butter,  is  owned  by  the  United  Farmers'  Co-operative 
Company.  This  company  also  continues  to  serve  a  large  number  of  producers 
of  other  commodities  through  its  Live  Stock  Commission  Department  in  Toronto 
and  Montreal  yards,  the  egg  pool,  the  seed  pool,  grain  department,  etc.,  as  well 
as  handling  a  large  volume  of  feeds  and  supplies  of  all  kinds.  The  total  turnover 
of  this  company  last  year  was  over  $18,000,000  which  gives  some  indication  of 
the  wide  field  covered. 

A  considerable  number  of  cheese  producers  in  the  Province,  mainly  in 
Eastern  Ontario,  co-operate  in  maintaining  an  auction  sale  at  Montreal.  A 
co-operative  company,  known  as  the  United  Dairymen  Co-operative,  Limited, 
is  the  company  through  which  this  service  is  rendered.  All  cheese  sold  are 
graded  and  offered  for  sale  on  the  basis  of  quality.  Over  14,000,000  pounds  of 
cheese  were  thus  sold  co-operatively  through  this  central  company  last  year 
which  was  the  best  year  in  the  history  of  the  company. 

There  are  numerous  small  co-operatives  in  all  parts  of  the  Province  and 
though  mention  is  made  of  only  a  few  of  the  co-operatives,  it  should  not  be 
forgotten  that  small  organizations  serving  a  limited  territory  are  doing  an 
efficient  work  for  their  membership.     It  is  hoped  that  many  of  these  co-operatives 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 55 

will,  in  the  future,  volunteer  statistical  information  which  will  give  concrete 
evidence  of  the  way  in  which  co-operative  marketing  is  permeating  the  Province. 
It  should  also  be  stated  that  a  large  total  volume  of  business  is  carried  on  by 
small,  unincorporated  farmers'  clubs,  both  in  the  marketing  of  products  and  in 
buymg  supplies.  ENGLISH  MARKETS  CABLE 

On  Thursday  morning  of  each  week  during  the  year,  the  Agent-General  for 
Ontario  in  London,  England,  forwards  a  cable  giving  a  summary  of  market  prices 
on  live  stock,  bacon,  cheese,  butter  and  apples  in  season.  Prices  are  also  given  on 
these  commodities  from  other  countries  which  compete  with  us  on  the  European 
market.     These  cables  are  given  immediate  distribution  through  the  agricultural 

P^^^^"  LOANS  IN  NORTHERN  ONTARIO 

Two  co-operative  creameries  have  been  established  in  Northern  Ontario 
at  Cochrane  and  Matheson.  Loans  have  been  made  to  these  under  the  Northern 
Development  Act,  on  the  recommendation  of  t  le  Minister  of  Agriculture,  and 
both  have  been  operated  during  the  past  summer  with  fair  success.  As  a  result 
of  the  establishment  of  these  creameries,  a  large  number  of  additional  cows 
have  been  imported  into  the  district;  a  total  of  over  250  cows  having  so  far  been 
purchased  by  the  settlers,  and  the  demand  for  more  cows  continuing.  The 
development  of  these  creameries  has  so  far  been  amply  justified. 

COMMUNITY  HALLS 

The  total  number  of  halls  in  the  Province  upon  which  grants  have  been 
paid  is  now  fifty-six,  and  at  the  present  time  som.e  fourteen  applications  are  in 
for  additional  halls.  Of  the  fifty-six  halls,  ten  were  accepted  during  the  year  as 
follows : — 

Total  Cost  Grant 

Lynden  Community  Hall,  Lynden,  Ont $6,000  00        $1,500  00 

Gooderham   Consolidated  School  and   Community   Hall,   Gooderham, 

Ont 3,144  00  786  00 

Barwick  Consolidated  School  and  Community  Hall,  Barwick,  Ont 6,157  00  1,539  25 

Caledon  East  Community  Hall,  Caledon  East 8,437  33  2,000  00 

Blake  Township  Comm.unitv  Hall,  Moose  Hill 4,955  31  1,238  83 

Mclntyre  Community  Hall,  Port  Arthur 4,343  98  1,086  00 

Inwood  Community  Athletic  Field,  Inwood,  Ont 950  32  237  58 

Sunburv  Community  Hall 4,188  30  1,047  08 

Athens  High  School  and  Community  Hall,  Athens,  Ont 8,000  00  2,000  00 

In  all  cases  these  halls  and  athletic  fields  have  proved  to  be  a  real  asset  to 
the  community.  In  many  cases  the  provincial  grant  has  been  the  only  outside 
financial  assistance.  In  a  few  instances  also,  the  halls  have  been  constructed 
without  any  taxation,  money  for  the  purpose  coming  from  voluntary  sub- 
scriptions and  other  sources.  In  addition  to  the  money  subscriptions,  farmers 
and  other  supporters  of  the  community  hall  have  donated  free  labour  and 
materials,  thus  equipping  the  community  with  an  excellent  building  at  a 
minimum  expenditure  in  actual  cash.  The  people,  however,  have  a  vital 
interest  in  their  hall  and  athletic  field,  and  excellent  use  is  being  made  of 
these  community  centres  over  the  Province. 

MISCELLANEOUS 

The  usual  work  of  the  branch  has  been  carried  on  in  giving  assistance  in 
organizing  for  co-operative  marketing,  in  consultations  with  boards  of  directors 
of  co-operatives,  in  preparing  applications  for  incorporation  and  in  framing  by- 
laws and  marketing  agreements;  in  addressing  meetings  of  growers,  short  courses, 
clubs  and  conventions  and  generally  assisting  in  promoting  co-operative 
endeavours  over  the  Province. 


56 REPORT  OF No.  21 

COLONIZATION  BRANCH 

Following  is  a  table  which  gives  a  summary  of  the  persons  placed  through  this 
branch : 

Number  of  farm  labourers 2,626 

Number  of  domestics  who  passed  through  the  Canadian  Women's  Hostel,  72  Carlton 

Street,  Toronto 1,640 

(Of  this  number,  594  were  from  the  British  Isles.) 

Number  of  farm  labourers  placed  by  the  Salvation  Army 22 

Number  of  domestics  placed  by  the  Salvation  Army 446 

Number  of  boys  placed  by  the  Salvation  Army 174 

Number  of  railwav  certificates  to  settlers  proceeding  to  Northern  Ontario  (consisting  of 

599  adults  and  62  children) 495 

The  number  is  somewhat  less  than  during  the  previous  year,  which  fact 
indicates  the  increasing  difficulty  in  securing  farm  labourers  in  Great  Britain. 
Conditions  and  wages  have  improved  considerably  during  recent  years,  and 
single  men  particularly  are  reluctant  to  make  the  change. 

Of  the  numbers  indicated  above  95  per  cent,  came  from  the  British  Isles. 
Other  nationalities  represented  were  Swiss,  Swedes,  Hollanders,  Danes,  Nor- 
wegians and  Finlanders. 

In  the  supervision  of  the  arrival  and  placing,  there  is  a  vast  amount  of 
individual  detail,  which  brief  statement  scarcely  suggests. 

During  the  year  a  large  amount  of  publicity  work  on  behalf  of  the  Province 
has  been  looked  after. 

LONDON  OFFICE 

In  his  report  for  the  past  year,  the  Agent-General  commences  on  the  visit 
of  the  Prime  oMinister  of  Ontario  during  the  summer.  He  points  out  that 
although  the  Prime  Minister  was  largely  on  a  holiday  trip,  he  spent  a  great 
deal  of  his  time  in  meeting  people  who  were  interested  in  the  Province  of  Ontario 
and  giving  information  which  was  most  beneficial  to  the  Province. 

The  past  year,  however,  has  been  found  a  som.ewhat  difficult  one  for  immi- 
gration work.  All  organizations  have  experienced  a  restriction  in  the  supply  of 
suitable  persons,  to  undertake  farming,  overseas.  At  first  sight,  it  might  appear 
that  at  a  time  when  there  are  over  a  million  people  unemployed  in  the  United 
Kingdom,  there  would  be  a  pressing  forward  of  the  unemployed  towards  the 
overseas  Dominions,  where  work  could  be  obtained.  But,  as  a  matter  of  fact, 
the  unemployed  consisted  entirely  of  industrial  artisans — mill-workers,  miners, 
ship-builders,  and  young  men  without  a  trade.  There  are  practically  no  exper- 
ienced farm  workers  out  of  employment.  On  the  other  hand,  experience  d  farm 
workers  are  in  demand ;  their  wages,  while  still  low,  are  much  higher  than  before 
the  war,  and  indeed,  the  wages  oft'ered  to  good  farm  workers  are  almost  as  high 
as  the  rates  offered  in  Ontario  to  newcomers. 

The  volume  of  correspondence  is  indicated  by  the  fact  that  over  3  0,000 
letters  were  received,  and  over  36,000  were  sent  out  from  the  office.  Interview- 
ing is  also  a  very-  important  part  of  the  work,  and  the  records  show  a  total  of 
7,826  people  having  called  on  various  matters  connected  with  the  province. 

While  the  assistance  of  people  going  to  Ontario  is  the  main  business  of  the 
office,  it  is  also  possible  to  incidentally  render  valuable  assistance  to  Ontario 
people  who  happen  to  be  in  Great  Britain  on  business  or  pleasure. 

During  the  past  twelve  months,  245,772  copies  of  descriptive  literature 
respecting  Ontario  have  been  distributed  from  the  London  office.  In  addition,  a 
vast  am.ount  of  very  useful  publicity  is  obtained  through  the  constant  display  of 
Ontario  Government  films  in  the  motion  picture  theatres  throughout  the  country.

AGRICULTURAL  DEVELOPMENT  BOARD 


In  regard  to  the  loan  system  carried  on  under  this  board,  a  substantial  benefit 
was  conferred  on  the  farn^ers  of  the  province  by  the  action  of  the  Government  in 
reducing  the  rate  of  interest  during  the  year. 

The  old  rate  was  six  per  cent,  per  annuni  and  this  was  reduced  to  five  and 
one-half  per  cent.  The  change  became  effective  on  the  first  of  June  and  was  made 
to  apply  to  all  loans  previously  passed  as  well  as  to  subsequent  loans.  On  the 
business  of  the  year  this  represented  a  saving  of  $50,000  to  the  farmers  of  the 
province.  In  future  years,  however,  with  a  full  twelve  months'  period  it  will 
mean  a  saving  of  $100,000  and  upwards  as  the  aggregate  of  loans  increases.  The 
establishmicnt  of  this  rate  will  also  no  doubt  have  an  influence  even  upon  the 
immediate  business  of  the  board.  There  were  many  evidences  that  this  action 
was  much  appreciated  by  the  applicants.  There  was  also  noticed  a  decided 
increase  in  the  applications  during  the  latter  part  of  the  year  as  compared  to  the 
first  part  of  the  year. 

Repayments  are  of  course  made  on  the  amortization  plan.  With  the  new 
rate  of  interest  the  repayment  required  is  $83.68  per  annum  per  $1,000  borrowed. 
This  means  a  steady  reduction  in  principal  and,  in  so  far  as  New  Ontario  is  con- 
cerned, the  repayment  is  in  most  cases  less  than  the  borroAvers  were  previously 
paying  in  interest  alone,  apart  altogether  from  principal.

In  addition  to  the  number  of  applications  granted  there  were  258  which 
were  formally  considered  but  not  passed.  This  would  represent  approximately 
twenty-five  per  cent,  of  the  total  number  considered,  which  is  perhaps  an  indica- 
tion of  the  care  which  is  taken  in  scrutinizing  each  application  and  combining 
adequate  security  to  the  province  with  the  desire  to  be  helpful  to  the  applicants. 

Both  Old  and  New  Ontario  have  benefited  by  the  system,  about  one-third 
of  the  loans  passed  being  in  New  Ontario.  The  average  loan  granted  in  Old 
Ontario  was  $4,281.44  and  in  New  Ontario,  $1,709.82. 

It  may  first  be  noted  that  the  arrears  prior  to  this  fiscal  year  have  been 
cleaned  up  with  the  exception  of  nine  accounts,  aggregating  a  little  less  than 
$2,500.  For  these  arrears,  the  board  holds  excellent  security  in  each  case.  As 
to  the  payments  coming  due  during  the  past  year,  the  sum  of  $286,174.11  was 
due  on  December  1st,  1924.  Of  this,  $16,741.85  or  5.85  per  cent,  was  uncollected 
at  the  end  of  the  year,  which  means  that  this  amount  has  been  outstanding  for 
more  than  ten  months.  On  May  31st,  1925,  a  further  sum  of  $278,982.77  was  due 
and  of  this  amount,  $40,429.94  or  14.49  per  cent,  was  outstanding  at  the  end  of 
the  fiscal  year,  which  means  being  carried  more  than  a  period  of  five  months. 
As  far  as  can  be  seen,  there  is  good  security  in  each  case  for  all  these  arrears. 


58 REPORT  OF No.  21 

As  to  short  terxTi  loans,  there  have  been  no  new  associations  asked  for  or 
obtained  during  the  year.  The  payments  on  principal  have  amounted  to 
$60,283.56  while  the  new  loans  granted  have  amounted  to  $28,625.19.  The  total 
amount  outstanding  has  therefore  been  reduced  to  $199,744.37.  Interest  has, 
of  course,  been  paid  up. 

As  to  the  cost  of  carrying  on  the  business,  the  board  shows  a  surplus  of 
$40,901.95  for  the  year.  This  brings  the  total  amount  to  the  credit  of  the  surplus 
account  of  the  board  up  to  $177,171.32.  This  is  composed  almost  entirely  of 
interest  revenues  accruing  to  the  board.  On  the  other  hand,  the  amount  which 
has  been  expended  in  the  maintenance  of  the  board  since  its  inception  aggregates 
$121,127.50  over  and  above  the  revenues  which  the  board  has  paid  in  to  the 
Treasury.  Thus,  after  making  provision  for  all  these  operating  costs  since  incep- 
tion, the  board  shows  a  net  surplus  of  $56,143.82. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 59 

AGRICULTURAL  REPRESENTATIVE  BRANCH 

The  services  offered  through  county  branches  of  the  Department  of  Agricul- 
ture have  been  so  appreciated  by  rural  people,  and  the  demands  upon  the 
agricultural  representatives  have  so  increased  that  they  have  found  great  difficulty 
in  satisfying  the  petitioners  and  in  organizing  constructive  work  which  they  feel 
should  be  conducted  in  the  interests  of  agricultural  developm.ent  and  rural 
advance  rent. 

Realizing  that  this  condition  prevailed  in  the  m.ajority  of  counties,  a  special 
committee  was  appointed  to  consider  the  problem  and  report  to  the  annual 
conference.     The  following  recomn:endations  were  submitted  and  adopted: 

1.  That  each  representative  survey  local  conditions  and  prepare  a  "County 
Analysis  Report." 

2.  That  in  each  county  the  analysis  be  studied  and  a  development  pro- 
gramme be  drafted  covering  a  period  of  years.  (This  to  be  done  in  co-operation 
with  local  organizations  and  county  leaders.) 

3.  That  a  carefully  thought-out  programme  be  prepared  for  the  ensuing 
year. 

4.  That  a  work  calendar  by  months  be  drafted  and  followed  as  closely  as 
possible. 

5.  That  as  much  as  possible  agricultural  representatives  work  in  co-operation 

with  organizations  rather  than  for  individuals. 

These  recommendations  are  now  being  put  into  effect  and  excellent  results 
have  already  been  realized  in  several  counties.  This  is  considered  the  most 
important  development  of  the  branch  in  the  year. 

Resignations  have  been  received  during  the  year  from  the  representatives 
in  the  counties  of  Brant,  Dufferin  and  North  Simcoe. 


RURAL  SCHOOL  FAIRS 

During  the  season  of  1925,  4,508  schools  took  part  in  515  school 
fairs  which  were  attended  by  157,445  children  and  214,496  adults.  There 
was  a  total  of  275,671  entries,  or  an  average  of  535  entries  for  each  school  fair. 
From  reports  of  the  county  representatives  it  would  appear  that  the  school  fair 
is  an  organization  performing  a  great  service  in  the  rural  communities,  and  one 
with  which  the  rural  citizen  would  be  loath  to  part.  The  type,  quality  and 
uniformity  of  the  exhibits  clearly  illustrates  the  educational  value  of  rural  school 
fairs,  and  also  shows  the  interest  displayed  by  the  rural  school  children  as  well 
as  the  parents  and  other  citizens  of  a  comm.unity. 

The  placing  of  all  classes  according  to  the  quality  of  exhibits,  together  with 
the  reasons  for  the  awards  given  by  the  judges,  has  been  a  real  education  to  the 
pupils  as  well  as  the  adults. 

The  following  quantities  of  high-class  seeds,  eggs  and  baby  chicks  were  dis- 
tributed by  the  Ontario  Department  of  Agriculture  for  school  fair  purposes  during 
1925:— 

Potatoes 1 ,246  bags 

Oats,  barley  and  wheat 347  bushels 

Corn  (sweet  and  field) 22,925  packages 

Beets,  carrots,  onions,  parsnips 60,500         "

Special  Educational  Features 

In  nearly  every  county  the  representatives  and  local  school  fair  committees 
have  special  contests  and  demonstrations  for  the  promotion  of  education  and 
interest  along  certain  definite  lines  supporting  some  feature  of  the  county  pro- 
gramme or  projects.    A  few  of  the  special  features  this  year  were — poultry  culling 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 61 

demonstrations  and  judging  classes,  grading  and  candling  of  eggs,  judging  classes 
in  fruit  and  vegetables,  canning,  sewing  and  first-aid  contests.  In  most  of  the 
counties  exceptionally  good  live-stock  judging  competitions  were  held,  and  in 
many  cases  there  was  very  keen  competition  in  the  various  live-stock  classes. 
The  Wellington  County  representative  reports  the  following  with  reference  to 
live  stock  at  the  rural  school  fairs: — 

"It  may  be  of  interest  to  know  in  the  twelve  school  fairs  in  the  county  there  was  a  total 
this  fall  of  362  entries  of  live  stock,  or  an  average  for  each  fair  of  thirty.  With  a  larger  prize  list 
and  more  money  at  our  disposal  this  could  easily  be  doubled,  but  considering  that  the  first  prize 
for  a  pair  of  bacon  hogs  is  only  fifty  cents,  and  at  some  fairs  there  were  as  many  as  six  pair  of 
hogs  in  a  class,  shows  fairly  conclusively  that  stock  at  least,  is  not  shown  for  the  remuneration 
in  prize  money,  but  largely  for  the  sake  of  competition  and  the  satisfaction  of  winning." 

In  many  of  the  counties  challenge  shields  and  cups  have  been  offered  for 
special  prizes;  and  in  each  school  the  pupil  securing  the  highest  num.ber  of  points 
is  awarded  a  certificate  of  honour  signed  by  the  Minister  of  Agriculture  and 
the  local  representative.  This  does  much  toward  creating  friendly  rivalry, 
interest  and  enthusiasm  among  the  various  schools  and  pupils. 


Championship  School  Fairs 

These  fairs  are  usually  held  in  conjunction  with  an  agricultural  society  fall 
show  located  in  a  central  part  of  the  county.  By  bringing  together  the  pupils 
from  the  various  schools  of  the  county,  as  well  as  exhibits  from  each  school  fair, 
much  is  accoTplished  toward  creating  the  exhibition  habit  amiong  the  younger 
generation.  This  in  a  very  few  years  will  react  to  the  advantage  of  the  county 
fall  fair  and  larger  exhibitions,  by  increasing  the  nun  ber  of  exhibits  and  support 
given  these  institutions  by  the  younger  fanners  of  Ontario. 

An  extract  from  the  report  of  the  Thunder  Bay  representatives  will  convey 
some  idea  of  the  possibilities  and  accomplishments  of  a  championship  school  fair: 

"Our  first  district  championship  school  fair  was  verv  successful,  although  we  were  unfor- 
tunate in  having  a  ccld,  cloudy  and  disagreeable  d'y.  There  were  915  entries  of  gr  in,  roots, 
vegetables,  school  work,  manual  training,  and  sewing,  exhibited  by  715  pupils.  These  entries 
made  a  very  creditable  and  attractive  disphv  in  the  Agricultural  Hall,  and  occupied  a  space 
seventy-five  feet  long  and  eight  feet  deep.  The  West  Algoma  Agricltural  Society  p"id  _?11  the 
prize  money  and  also  gave  two  special  prizes  of  five  dc  liars  each  for  the  boy  and  girl  winning  the 
greatest  number  of  points.  Mr.  M.  J.  McDonald,  president  of  the  Port  Arthur  Chamber  of 
Commerce,  don''ted  a  silver  cup  to  the  pupil  winning  the  greatest  number  of  prints  at  the  fair, 
and  the  Fort  William  Rotary  Club  gave  a  verv-  beautiful  silver  shield  (value  S60)  to  the  school 
having  the  best  school  parade. 

"Forty-seven  rural  schools  turned  out  en  masse  with  over  eleven  hundred  school  pupils.  The 
Fort  William-Port  Arthur  Kiwanis  Club,  assisted  by  the  Twin  City  Rotan,-  Clubs,  very  generously 
took  complete  charge  of  transporting  the  children  to  and  from  the  fair.  Practically  e\  ery  member 
of  these  service  clubs  took  his  own  car,  or  provided  one,  and  brought  a  car  load  of  pupils  to  the 
fair.  The  Elks'  Club  of  Fort  William  took  charge  of  serving  luncheon  to  all  the  pupils.  the_  food 
being  donated  by  the  wholesale  merchants  of  the  two  cities.  Thirty-one  schools  took  part  in  the 
school  parade  before  the  grand  stand  and  the  shield  this  year  was  won  by  the  Dorion  Consolidated 
School. 

"In  organizing  a  championship  school  fair  in  this  manner,  a  real  community  enterprise  was 
made  of  it,  which  aroused  much  interest  among  both  the  city  and  country  people." 

This  >^ear  championship  school  fairs  were  conducted  in  the  following  counties 
and  districts:  Brant,  Bruce,  Dundas,  Frontenac,  Haldimand,  Halton,  Kenora, 
Manitoulin,  Norfolk,  Oxford,  Peterborough,  Prince  Edward,  Rainy  River  (2), 
Thunder  Bay,  Welland,  Wentworth.  In  many  other  counties  school  fair  cham- 
pions were  brought  together  to  decide  the  county  champion  or  championship

The  home  garden  contest  is  arranged  especially  for  the  teen  age  boys  and 
girls  for  the  purpose  of  stimulating  interest  in  agriculture  and  encouraging  the 
use  of  greater  variety  of  vegetables  in  the  farm  home.  In  addition  to  supplying 
an  abundance  of  vegetables  for  use  in  the  farm  home,  many  of  the  boys  and  girls 
were  able  to  sell  some  of  their  products,  thus  making  the  competition  remunera- 
tive as  well  as  educational.  The  gardens  were  judged  during  July  and  August 
by  the  representatives,  and  prizes  were  awarded  for  the  best  kept  gardens.    The

POULTRY  BREEDING  STATIONS 

The  Ontario  poultry  breeding  stations  have  very  materially  assisted  in  the 
improvement  of  the  flocks  in  the  province.  These  breeding  stations,  operated 
under  the  supervision  of  the  county  representative,  not  only  supply  well-bred 
eggs  for  school  fair  distribution,  but  also  supply  settings  of  eggs,  baby  chicks  and 
breeding  stock  to  neighbouring  farmers.  During  the  1925  season,  farmers  ordered 
over  8,102  dozen  eggs  and  purchased  1,033  cockerels  for  breeding  purposes. 

Each  year  extension  poultry  experts  from  the  Poultry  Department  of  the 
Ontario  Agriculture  College  visit  all  the  breeding  stations,  inspect  the  poultry 
plants  and  equipment  of  the  operators  ,and  rigidly  cull  all  the  flocks,  thus  eliminat- 
ing any  off  type  and  inferior  birds  which  do  not  show  evidence  of  high  production. 
This  year  an  effort  was  m.ade  to  have  all  the  birds  blood  tested  for  white  diarrhoea. 
The  Kemptville  Agricultural  School  and  the  Ontario  Agricultural  College  also 
supply  superior  male  birds  for  use  at  the  breeding  stations.  After  years  of  con- 
tinuous culling  and  using  good  male  birds,  the  poultry  breeding  stations  have 
been  brought  up  to  a  very  high  standard  of  production.  In  addition  to  barred 
Plymouth  Rocks,  this  year  for  the  first  time  White  Wyandotte  and  White  Leghorn 
eggs  were  distributed  to  school  pupils  requesting  these  breeds. 

The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  dozens  of  eggs  and  baby  chicks

MONTH'S   COURSES    IN   AGRICULTURE   AND    HOME    ECONOMICS 

For  the  past  thirteen  years  it  has  been  the  policy  of  the  Ontario  Department 
of  Agriculture  to  conduct  short  courses  in  Agriculture  and  Home  Economics,  and 
during  1925  forty- three  short  courses  lasting  from  four  to  six  weeks  were  held, 
with  a  total  enrolment  of  1,243  students,  or  an  average  of  twenty-nine  per  course. 


1926

That  this  form  of  education  and  extension  is  being  appreciated  is  evidenced  by 
the  fact  that  the  attendance  at  these  courses  increases  from  year  to  year.  During 
the  past  year  these  short  courses  were  also  held  in  Northern  Ontario  where  they 
were  exceptionally  well  received  by  the  farmers,  and  in  every  case  there  was  a 
large  regular  attendance  of  interested  students,  both  old  and  young.  In  Northern 
Ontario  the  courses  are  usually  held  in  March  and  April,  and  the  length  of  the 
course  varies  from  two  weeks  to  a  month.  At  these  courses  in  Agriculture  and 
Home  Economics  the  representative  becomes  intimately  acquainted  with  the  best 
type  of  farm  boys  and  girls  in  the  counties  and  through  them  he  is  enabled  to 
carry  out  many  progressive  projects  and  county  programmes. 

Courses  in  Home  Economics  included  a  study  of  foods,  cooking,  sewing, 
millinery  and  home  nursing  and  first  aid,  and  were  conducted  at  the  same  time 
as  the  boys'  classes  in  agriculture.  By  running  these  classes  concurrently,  it 
makes  for  an  increased  attendance  at  both,  promotes  sociability,  and  develops 
a  community  spirit. 

THREE  MONTHS'   COURSES   IN  AGRICULTURE  AND   HOME 

ECONOMICS 

Three  months'  schools,  similar  to  those  conducted  since  1921,  were  held  as

The  attendance  at  these  schools  during  1924-25  shows  an  increase.  The 
Departmicnt  of  Agriculture  provided  special  lecturers  for  many  of  the  subjects 
taken  up,  and  the  local  people  arranged  for  halls,  heating  and  other  expenses  in 
connection  with  the  course.  At  these  classes  lectures  were  given  in  English  and 
mathematics,  as  well  as  the  more  practical  agricultural  subjects;  and  literary 
societies  were  organized,  thus  giving  the  students  practice  in  debating,  public 
speaking  and  conducting  public  meetings.  These  longer  courses  give  the  pupils 
an  opportunity  for  a  more  thorough  grounding  in  the  science  as  well  as  the  prac- 
tice of  agriculture.  The  Bruce  County  Representative  makes  the  following  com- 
ment on  the  three  months'  course  held  at  Tara: — 

"The  Three-Months'  Course,  which  was  the  first  held  in  the  county;  proved  very  popular 
with  all  classes.  The  pupils  appreciated  the  splendid  programme  of  studies,  and  have  found 
the  information  given  and  experience  gained  of  real  practical  value.  Active  Junior  Institutes 
and  Junior  Farmers'  Associations  were  organized  at  the  conclusion  of  the  course."

SHEEP  AND  SWINE  MARKETING  COURSES 

The  Sheep  and  Swine  Division  of  the  Dominion  Department  of  Agriculture 
co-operated  with  the  county  representative  and  organized  and  conducted  special 
sheep  and  swine  marketing  courses  in  conjunction  with  the  regular  short  courses 
in  each  county.  These  lectures  and  demonstrations  proved  to  be  very  interesting 
and  helpful  to  both  old  and  young,  and  all  these  courses  were  well  attended. 

This  year,  as  in  previous  years,  the  Industrial  and  Development  Council  of 
Canadian  Meat  Packers,  the  Federal  and  Provincial  Live  Stock  Branches,  the 
Canadian  Swine  Breeders'  Association  and  the  agricultural  representatives  con- 
ducted swine  grading,  judging  and  marketing  courses  at  the  packing  plants  as

JUNIOR  FARMERS'  ASSOCIATIONS 


It  would  be  difificult  to  value  the  influence  of  the  junior  farmers'  associations 
in  many  counties  of  Ontario.  The  life  of  some  communities  has  been  practically 
revolutionized  by  the  activities  of  these  clubs. 

The  work  carried  on  is  in  itself  very  efifective,  but  the  training  which  these 
young  people  receive  fits  them  for  efficient  farm  life  and  community  leadership. 

The  chief  feature  of  junior  farmer  work  during  the  year  has  been  the  resolu- 
tion and  organization  to  plan  and  carry  out  definite  well-balanced  programmes. 
With  this  in  view,  several  district  conferences  were  held,  attended  by  delegates 
from  associations  in  the  respective  zones.  These  meetings  were  very  satisfactory 
in  attendance  and  interest,  and  as  a  result  added  impetus  has  been  given  to  the 
work  in  sections  not  so  active  formerly  and  better  all-year  programmes  have  been 
adopted  even  in  the  leading  counties.  Some  of  the  features  of  an  average  pro- 
gramme are: — 


1.  Debating  leagues. 

2.  Game  leagues. 

3.  Public  speaking  contests. 

4.  Dramatic  contests. 

5.  Athletic  contests. 

6.  Stock  judging  contests. 


7.  Crop  and  stock  judging  contests. 

8.  Plowing  contests. 

9.  Social  activities  of  various  kinds. 

10.  Community  improvement. 

11.  Tours  and  excursions. 


JUNIOR  FARMER  CONFERENCES 


Kemptville. — The  eastern  Ontario  meetings  were  held  at  the  Kemptville 
Agricultural  School  on  October  8  and  9.  Delegates  were  present  numbering 
about  forty  from  the  counties  of  Carleton,  Dundas,  Frontenac,  Glengarry, 
Grenville,  Lanark,  Leeds,  Lennox  and  Addington,  and  Renfrew.  The  young 
men  were  accommodated  in  the  school  residence  and  appreciated  this  touch  of 
boarding  school  life.  The  features  of  the  programme  were  addresses  by  young 
men  prpminent  in  junior  farmer  work  in  western  Ontario  and  the  discussions 
which  followed  these  practical  talks.  The  afternoon  of  October  9  was  devoted 
to  live-stock  judging  practice  for  which  the  school  animals  were  used.  As  a 
girls'  conference  was  being  conducted  at  the  same  time  and  place,  several  joint 
sessions  were  held. 

GuELPH. — A  very  enthusiastic  conference  was  held  in  Guelph  on  November 
24,  1925.  Being  in  the  centre  of  a  district  where  junior  work  has  been  very 
active  for  some  years,  the  attendance  reached  about  125- — although  only  two 
delegates  were  invited  from  each  junior  farmer  local  branch.  The  attendance 
and  the  keen  interest  manifested  by  those  present  indicated  that  the  conference 
was  appreciated  as  a  source  of  information  and  clearing  house  of  junior  farmer 
association  ideas. 

The  programme  was  handled  almost  entirely  by  the  young  men  delegates 
who  performed  their  prescribed  duties  and  carried  on  the  discussions  in  a  manner 
which  might  surprise  those  not  familiar  with  the  efficiency  of  the  junior  farmer 
training.  Twenty-two  names  appeared  on  the  programme  for  short  addresses; 
the  boys  were  all  there  at  the  specified  time  and  the  programme  was  concluded 
according  to  schedule.     A  copy  of  the  programme  follows: —

London. — In  Middlesex,  the  County  Junior  Farmers'  Association  conducted 
a  two-day  educational  assembly  at  the  University  of  Western  Ontario  where  a 
series  of  excellent  lectures  were  given  by  the  professors  of  the  University  and 
others.  "This,"  the  Middlesex  Representative  states,  "was  one  of  the  most  out- 
standing events  that  the  junior  farmers  have  ever  conducted,  and  they  expect  to 
make  it  an  annual  affair." 


CHAMPION  JUNIORS'  TRIP  TO  CHICAGO 


In  1925  the  Ontario  party  of  Junior  Farmers  and  Junior  Institute  members, 
numbering  twenty-five,  attended  the  International  Live  Stock  Exposition  and 
Boys'  and  Girls'  Club  Congress  held  in  Chicago.  This  trip  was  given  as  a 
championship  prize  to  juniors  in  the  various  county  competitions.  This  year  the 
group  was  in  charge  of  Miss  Iva  Langton  of  Wentworth  County  and  J.  E.

EASTERN    ONTARIO    JUNIOR    FARMERS'    FIELD    DAY    AT 

KEMPTVILLE 


The  annual  Junior  Farmers'  field  day  at  the  Kemptville  Agricultural  School 
has  grown  more  popular  each  year,  not  only  with  the  juniors,  but  with  their 
senior  friends  as  well.    The  fourth  annual  event  held  on  Friday,  June  12,  1925,

No.  21 


was  attended  by  about  3,000  rural  people  who  enjoyed  the  athletic  programme 
and  also  the  opportunity  of  inspecting  the  crops  and  herds  and  of  meeting  the 
members  of  the  school  staff.  Carleton  County  was  successful  in  winning  the  cup 
for  highest  number  of  points. 


JUNIOR  FARMERS'  PLOWING  COMPETITIONS 

The  home  plowing  competitions  have  been  one  of  the  outstanding  factors 
in  promoting  better  plowing  in  the  counties.  The  very  unseasonable  weather  of 
the  past  autumn  made  the  conducting  of  a  successful  plowing  competition  ex- 
tremely difficult,  and  in  many  sections  early  snowfalls  and  wet  weather  made 
good  plowing  practically  impossible.  In  some  counties  junior  matches  were 
held,  and  in  others  County  Plowmen's  associations  were  formed,  due  partly  to 
the  interest  aroused  by  the  home  plowing  competitions.  The  Department  of 
Agriculture  assisted  in  financing  by  paying  half  of  the  prize  money,  but  the  grant 
not  to  exceed  $25.    The  following  is  a  list  of  the  competitions  held  in  1925:- — ■

COUNTY  JUDGING  COMPETITIONS 


With  the  co-operation  of  county  live-stock  breeders,  junior  farmers  and 
others,  the  agricultural  representatives  in  twenty-nine  counties  conducted 
county  live-stock  judging  competitions.  At  these  competitions  there  was  a 
total  of  1,197  contestants,  or  an  average  of  forty-three  per  competition.  These 
competitions  were  usually  held  prior  to  the  inter-county  contests,  and  thus 
provided  good  preliminary  training  for  the  provincial  contests  held  at  the  larger 
exhibitions.  The  following  table  shows  the  county  and  contestants  in  the 
province  during  1925: —

In  Ontario  County  at  one  competition  held  at  Brooklin  and  Columbus 
there  were  115  contestants,  which  is  a  record  for  any  county  competition  held  in 
the  province.    The  Ontario  Representative  writes  as  follows: — 

"A  special  effort  was  put  forth  to  let  the  boys  and  young  men  of  Ontario  County  know  what 
a  live  stock  judging  competition  was  like.  The  cash  prizes  were  not  large  but  the  awarding  of 
a  trip  to  Toronto  at  the  time  of  the  Royal  Fair  to  the  high  boy  from  each  small  community 
throughout  the  county  had  quite  a  little  to  do  with  getting  the  boys  interested.  This  trip  was 
financed  by  the  Robert  Simpson  Company.  Thirty-eight  communities  were  represented,  there- 
fore thirty-eight  boys  won  this  trip.  The  trip  was  taken  on  November  27th,  1925,  by  bus — 
thirty-five  of  the  boys  taking  it  in.  They  were  entertained  by  the  Robert  Simpson  Company, 
the  Union  Stock  Yards  and  Swift  Canadian  Company.  They  had  the  opportunity  of  spending 
two  afternoons  and  an  evening  at  the  Royal  Winter  Fair." 


INTER-COUNTY  JUDGING  COMPETITIONS 


Inter-county  live  stock  judging  competitions  were  conducted  during  1925 
at  the  Royal,  Guelph  and  Ottawa  Winter  Fairs.  Teams  of  three  young  men  under 
twenty-six  years  of  age  were  trained  by  the  county  representatives,  and  at  the 
Royal  the  competition  was  open  to  any  county  in  Ontario;  Guelph  was  open  to 
the  counties  east  of  and  including  Victoria  and  Durham,  and  the  Ottawa  contest 
was  confined  to  the  counties  east  of  this. 

At  the  Royal  Winter  Fair  Oxford  County  won  the  handsome  trophy  offered 
by  Messrs.  B.  H.  Bull  &  Son  of  Brampton.  The  names  of  winning  team  were: 
Harold  Pearce,  Otterville;  Ewart  Jones,  Mount  Elgin;  Oliver  McGie,  Thames- 
ford.

Total  prize  money  offered  at  fairs $2,209  50 


The  fair  managements  treated  the  competitors  liberally.  At  the  Canadian 
National  Exhibition  all  contestants,  in  addition  to  receiving  passes,  were  dined 
and  provided  with  complimentary  grand  stand  seats  for  the  evening  performance. 
A  new  feature  was  introduced  this  year  when  a  parade  of  contestants  was  staged. 
Including  the  young  women  in  the  inter-county  domestic  science  contest,  over 
500  paraded  under  county  banners  from  the  judging  arena  by  a  circuitous  route 
to  the  dining  hall.  This  departure  attracted  attention  and  was  appreciated  by 
the  participants. 


GIRLS'  HOUSEHOLD  SCIENCE  JUDGING  COMPETITION 
CANADIAN  NATIONAL  EXHIBITION 

The  second  annual  household  science  judging  competition  for  girls  was  held 
at  the  Canadian  National  Exhibition  on  September  9th,  1925.  The  Canadian 
National  Exhibition  Board  provided  S440  prize  money  for  individual  prizes,  and 
also  donated  a  handsome  trophy  for  the  highest  county  team  composed  of  three 
girls.  There  were  two  contests;  one  for  inter-county  teams  of  three  girls,  in  which 
twent^'-three  counties  were  represented,  and  an  open  competition  in  which  108 
girls  took  part.

In  the  various  counties  the  girls  were  trained  and  coached  by  the  staff  of  the 
Women's  Institute  Branch  co-operating  with  the  County  Representative.  In 
most  counties  elimination  contests  were  held,  and  in  this  way  many  girls  received 
excellent  training  even  tiiough  they  may  not  have  secured  a  place  on  the  county 
team.  The  winning  team  came  from  Elgin  County  again  this  year,  and  was 
composed  as  follows:  Katharine  Turner,  R.R.  2.  Shedden;  Margaret  Cole, 
Southwold  Station;  Mary  McTavish,  R.R.  3,  Shedden. 

PROFIT  COMPETITIONS 

These  competitions  were  again  conducted  with  junior  farmers  in  Ontario. 
The  idea  of  the  competitions  is  to  encourage  the  contestants  to  study  the  various 
crops  produced  and  to  keep  accurate  records  of  cost  of  production  of  the  various 
crops,  and  from  this  analysis  they  are  partially  enabled  to  determine  costs  and 
values  of  crops  on  their  own  particular  farms.  In  addition  to  this,  the  winners 
of  these  competitions  are  given  a  prize  of  a  two-weeks'  short  course  at  either 
Guelph  or  Kemptville.  These  competitions  were  conducted  as  follows  during 
1925 :—

Acre  Profit  Competitions 
Prizes  were  awarded  to  competitors  showing  the  highest  net  profit  per  acre. 
In  order  to  have  uniformity  in  calculating  the  profit  and  cost  of  production,  the 
following  values  were  used : — ■ 

1.  Man  and  Horse  Labour 

Man  labour  to  be  reckoned  at  25  cents  per  hour. 
Horse  labour  to  be  reckoned  at  15  cents  per  hour. 

2.  Fertilizer 

Barnyard  manure  applied  to  this  crop  at  $1.00  per  ton  or  two-horse  load. 

Barnyard  manure  applied  to  previous  crop  at  50  cents  per  ton  or  two-horse  load. 

Commercial  fertilizer  applied  to  this  crop  at  two-thirds  of  cost  price. 

Add  commercial  fertilizer  applied  to  previous  crop  at  one-third  of  this  year's  cost  price. 

3.  Rent  of  Land 

To  be  computed  on  the  basis  of  eight  per  cent,  of  the  selling  value  of  the  land,  this  to  be 
figured  by  the  Representative  and  the  Junior  Farmers'  Association.

BOYS'  AND  GIRLS'  CLUBS 

In  1925  there  were  boys'  and  girls'  clubs  organized  in  thirteen  counties, 
most  of  which  were  pig  clubs.  In  the  past,  boys'  and  girls'  club  work  has  not 
been  specially  featured  by  the  representatives,  due  largely  to  the  fact  that  it  has 
been  impossible  for  the  representatives  to  devote  sufficient  time  to  this  work. 
These  clubs,  however,  are  very  useful  in  certain  specialized  counties,  and  possibly 
in  the  Northern  Ontario  districts.  The  following  table  show^s  the  clubs  organized 
during  the  year:—

80 REPORT  OF No.  21 

In  Essex  County  special  clubs  were  organized,  and  the  representative 
comments  as  follows: — 

"These  clubs  are  proving  constantly  more  successful.  The  members  are  all  public  school 
children  under  sixteen  j'ears  of  age,  and  the  development  of  these  clubs  is  limited  only  by  the 
time  at  the  disposal  of  the  Representative.  In  the  Home  Garden  Club  the  gardens  are  generally 
ver>-  well  cared  for.  They  introduce  a  wider  range  of  vegetables  in  the  family  menu;  increase 
the  personal  interest  of  the  children  in  home  activities,  widen  the  knowledge  of  the  competitors 
and  are  much  favoured  by  the  parents.  They  also  have  an  economic  aspect.  One  boy  com- 
petitor sold  $47  worth  of  produce  from  his  garden  this  year,  after  the  requirements  of  the  family 
had  been  met." 

An  original  and  successful  club  known  as  the  "Barrie  Kiwanis  Farm  Boys' 
Potato  Club"  was  this  year  organized  in  North  Simcoe,  the  county  representative 
co-operating  with  the  Barrie  Kiwanis  Club.  The  objects  of  the  club  were  to 
stimulate  interest  in  better  farming,  increase  the  knowledge  of  the  farm  boy  in 
successful  farm  practice,  cost  accounting,  business  methods;  to  achieve  greater 
uniformity  in  potato  growing,  to  eliminate  many  unnecessary  varieties,  paving 
the  way  for  the  marketing  of  carload  lots  of  one  grade  and  one  variety,  and  to 
bring  about  a  closer  rural  and  urban  contact  and  to  give  point  to  the  fact  that  the 
interests  of  the  farmer  and  the  business  man  are  inseparable. 

Each  boy  in  the  club  got  one  bag  of  certified  Dooley  potato  seed  from  a 
Kiwanian  and  ten  pounds  of  nitrate  of  soda  from  the  Chilean  Nitrate  Company. 
Fift>'-one  Kiwanians  each  became  sponsor  for  a  farm  boy  between  twelve  and 
eighteen  years  of  age;   and  the  duties  of  the  Kiwanians  were  as  follows: — 

1.  To  buy  his  boy  one  bag  of  Certified  Dooley  Potatoes. 

2.  To  keep  in  touch  with  the  boy  during  the  year,  visit  him  on  the  farm  and  assist  him  in 
keeping  his  records. 

3.  To  see  that  the  boy  got  one-half  bushel  of  potatoes  out  to  the  fair  in  the  fall. 

4.  To  assist  in  making  up  an  adequate  prize  list. 

5.  To  see  that  he  got  his  bag  of  potatoes  back  as  a  matter  of  good  business. 

The  Department  of  Agriculture  agreed  to  assist  in  finding  boys,  purchasing 
potatoes,  inspecting  plots,  visiting  the  boys  and  in  organizing  a  Potato  Fair. 

The  season's  work  was  brought  to  a  successful  close  by  means  of  a  Potato 
Day  or  Potato  Fair,  held  at  Barrie  in  the  Market  Hall.  Forty-eight  boys 
assisted  by  over  fifty  Kiwanians  exhibited  their  half  bushel  lots  of  potatoes. 
Following  the  fair,  a  banquet  was  given  to  the  potato  boys  by  the  Kiwanis 
Club.  This  potato  club  was  a  decided  success.  Aside  from  the  educational 
value,  all  the  boys  excepting  three  received  a  profit  on  the  year's  work — the 
winners'  records  showing  a  profit  of  S20.67  after  all  expenses  were  deducted  and 
potatoes  valued  at  SI  per  bushel. 


PIG  MARKETING  CLUBS 

Five  car  loads  of  hogs  from  Ontario  pig  clubs  were  shipped  to  the  Union 
Stock  Yards,  Toronto,  on  October  30th,  1925;  the  following  table  gives  details 
regarding  this  day: —

82 REPORT  OF No.  21 

A  new  feature  this  year  was  the  elimination  contest  in  the  W.  D.  Robb 
(Vice-President  C.N.R.)  Challenge  Trophy  Competition,  the  finals  of  which 
were  open  to  the  Dominion  and  conducted  at  the  Royal  Winter  Fair.  In 
addition  to  the  judging  of  hogs,  this  feature  included  a  Demonstration  Com- 
petition. Six  teams  of  two  boys  each  competed  on  Pig  Club  Day  and  used  as 
demonstration  material  a  live  hog,  carcasses  and  charts.  In  addition  to  market- 
ing, the  breeding,  feeding  and  management  of  hogs  were  discussed  by  members 
of  the  teams.  The  team  from  the  Komoka  Club,  Middlesex  County,  won  in  the 
elimination  contest,  and  hence  went  into  the  finals  to  compete  against  the  other 
provinces  for  Dominion  honours. 

In  the  Dominion  Competition,  held  at  the  Royal  Winter  Fair,  seven  provinces 
competed,  and  the  Middlesex  team  representing  Ontario  were  successful  in  win- 
ning the  Challenge  Trophy  presented  by  W.  D.  Robb,  Vice-President  of  the  Can- 
adian National  Railways.  The  members  of  the  Middlesex  team  were  Archie 
Campbell  and  Chester  Brown  of  Ilderton.  They  also  won  a  gold  medal  each 
and  were  guests  of  the  Canadian  National  Railways  while  attending  the  Royal 
Winter  Fair. 

FARM  LABOUR 

The  general  consensus  of  opinion  gathered  from  the  county  representatives 
is  that  during  the  past  year  the  labour  situation  has  not  been  so  acute,  and  a 
better  quality  of  labour  has  been  available  for  the  Ontario  farmers.  In  counties 
where  no  permanent  employment  office  exists  the  county  representative  acts  as 
an  official  of  the  Immigration  Branch.  The  county  representatives  being  familiar 
with  the  local  conditions  in  each  county  have  been  able  to  render  a  service  that 
is  much  appreciated  by  the  farmers  as  well  as  the  immigration  office. 

FARM  DRAINAGE 

The  limiting  factor  in  the  amount  of  under  drainage  done  each  year  is  the 
cost  of  ditching  and  tiling.  However,  as  this  cost  and  prices  of  farm  land  and 
farm  products  become  more  equalized  and  stable,  a  greater  amount  of  tile  drain- 
ing will  be  done.  In  many  counties  farmers  are  prepared  to  tile  drain  as  soon  as 
economic  conditions  permit,  and  the  representatives  have  many  requests  on  file. 

EXPERIMENTAL  AND  DEMONSTRATION  WORK 

Co-operating  with  other  departments  the  county  representatives  carry  on 
experiments  dealing  with  problems  in  their  own  counties.  In  Northern  Ontario 
the  effect  of  limestone  on  the  clover  crop  is  being  tried  out,  and  also  experiments 
with  commercial  fertilizers  on  the  yield  of  potatoes.  In  Prince  Edward  County 
the  representative  is  conducting  fertilizer  experiments  with  tomatoes  and  experi- 
ments to  control  Pea  Fungus  or  root  rot.  The  results  of  these  experiments 
are  of  use  to  the  representatives  interested,  and  the  reports  of  completed  experi- 
ments are  from  time  to  time  issued  by  the  Agricultural  College  and  Experi- 
mental Farms. 

ORCHARD  IMPROVEMENT 

Spray  Service 

Early  in  the  season  a  special  spray  service  was  inaugurated  in  the  Counties 
of  Grey,  Halton,  Huron,  Lincoln,  Norfolk,  Northumberland,  Prince  Edward  and 
Durham,  which  are  the  chief  apple  producing  counties  in  Ontario.  The  object 
of  commencing  this  service  was  primarily  to  increase  the  quality  of  Ontario's

apple  crop  by  reducing  the  annual  loss  caused  by  fungus  diseases  and  insects; 
and  it  was  felt  that  this  could  best  be  accomplished  by  disseminating  expert 
knowledge  on  "When  and  how  to  spray  thoroughly  to  obtain  maximum  results." 
With  this  ob;ect  in  view  the  representatives  in  the  aforementioned  counties 
studied  their  spraying  problem,  and  received  the  enthusiastic  co-operation  and 
support  of  fruit  growers'  associations,  experts  from  Vineland  Experimental 
Station,  the  Fruit  Branch,  and  the  Ontario  Agricultural  College,  as  well  as  the 
individual  fruit  growers  in  the  various  counties. 

In  most  counties  a  series  of  spray  training  meetings  were  held  and  the 
service  thoroughly  organized.  Field  men  were  appointed,  timely  spray  service 
bulletins  were  prepared  and  distributed,  regular  personal  visits  were  made  to 
the  orchardists  receiving  the  service,  and  meetings  and  demonstrations  were 
held  from,  time  to  time  throughout  the  season. 

The  service  rendered  to  the  apple  growers  was  very  much  appreciated  and 
valuable  results  were  achieved.  Unfortunately  in  October  there  were  severe 
frosts  and  hail  storms  and  one  of  the  cleanest  and  best  apple  crops  in  the  history 
of  the  Province  was  seriously  damaged.  The  loss  amounted  to  thousands  of 
dollars,  and  made  it  d  fificult  to  make  an  accurate  report  on  the  value  of  the  spray 
service.     The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  men  applying  for  assistance : —

Th-e  following  comments  by  some  of  the  county  representatives  will  indicate 
the  value  of  the  service : — 

The  representative  from  Prince  Edward  sends  copies  of  letters  from  growers: 

(1)  "I  am  enclosing  inquiry  form  with  the  number  of  hampers  we  packed  (3,600)  also  number 
of  acres  of  bearing  orchard  (40).  As  you  are  aware  we  were  damaged  badly  by  hail,  and  it  is 
hard  for  me  to  estimate  accurately  the  percentage  of  culls  but  I  am  sure,  without  exaggerating, 
that  we  had  at  least  25  per  cent,  if  not  more,  so  that,  while  our  fruit  on  the  whole  was  exceptionally 
clean  as  far  as  scab  or  fungus  was  concerned,  our  culling  was  due  principally  to  hail  marks  and 
undersize.  With  the  assistance  of  your  Department,  through  Mr.  Smith  and  yourself,  we  were 
able  to  make  a  vast  improvement  on  the  orchard  with  our  spraying,  which  has  been  verj^  gratifying. 
Thanking  you  for  your  past  co-operation,  and  trusting  we  may  enjoy  the  same  privilege  next 
year." 

(2)  "As  a  result  of  hail  my  apples  were  unfit  for  packing,  but  I  sold  to  the  evaporator  208,800 
pounds  besides  about  100  bushels  of  serviceable  apples  for  home  use.  I  will  take  this  opportunity 
of  saying  that  as  a  result  of  the  spraying  service,  I  learned  a  good  bit  about  spraying,  and  I  hope 
you  will  be  able  to  secure  it  for  us  again  next  year." 

The  Halton  representative  says: — 

"The  spray  service  at  Farm  No.  1  was  given  a  great  deal  of  attention  and  we  followed  weather 
conditions  very  closely,  where  possible  saving  spray  materials  and  yet  controlling  insect  pests  and 
scab.  From  the  Macintosh  trees  191  bushels  of  apples  were  picked  and  171  boxes  of  No.  1 
apples  were  packed  for  export  to  England.  Requests  have  been  received  for  the  continuance 
of  the  service." 


84 REPORT  OF No.  21 

The  Norfolk  representative  writes: — 

"The  result  of  our  spray  service  work  has  meant  the  largest  and  cleanest  crop  of  apples 
ever  harvested  in  Norfolk.  This  is  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  about  15  per  cent,  of  our  crop  was 
frozen.  Mr.  James  E.  Johnson,  Manager  of  the  Norfolk  Fruit  Growers'  Association,  stated 
recently  that  the  spray  service  work  had  meant  $40,000  extra  money  to  the  growers  of  Norfolk 
County." 

The   Northumberland  representative  encloses  the  following  list  of  spray- 
service  bulletins  distributed  to  265  orchardists  in  the  county: — 

Bulletin  No.  1 — "Spray  Serv'ice,"  March  12th. 

"  2 — "Spray  Ordering  Guide,"  April  11th. 

"  3 — "Dela\ed  Dormant  Sprav,"  April  27th. 

"  4— "The  Pink  Spray,"  May'l6th. 

"  5 — "Warning — Don't  Spray  When  Trees  Are  in  Full  Bloom,"  May  22nd. 

"  6 — "Codling  Moth  Spray,"  June  1st. 

"  7 — "Supplemental  Spray,"  June  23rd. 

"  8 — "Side  Worm  Spray,"  August  10th. 


ALFALFA  CAMPAIGN 

Alfalfa  promotion  was  continued  in  counties  where  organized  efforts  had 
been  made  during  the  previous  year  and  was  featured  in  the  programmes  of  other 
agricultural  representatives.  In  Grenville  previous  to  1924  very  little  was 
grown;  in  that  year  115  fields  were  seeded  with  hardy  alfalfa.  No  failures  were 
reported  this  year  and  a  large  number  of  farmers  were  thereby  encouraged  to  use 
the  crop.  Special  work  was  carried  on  in  Durham  where  3,000  acres  were  seeded 
in  the  spring  of  1925  and  there  were  only  about  4,000  previous  to  that  time. 

Excellent  results  were  realized  in  Ontario  county  as  indicated  by  figures  of 
the  Statistics  Branch: — 

1923  1924  1925 

Acres  of  Alfalfa 2,662  3,611  8,957 

The  work  in  Leeds  has  been  continued  with  the  result  that  the  purchases 
of  hardy  seed  in  the  spring  of  1925  were  about  four  times  greater  than  in  any 
previous  year.  Very  satisfactory  increases  resulted  in  Carleton  and  Dundas 
Counties  where  the  work  commenced  in  1923  was  continued. 

At  the  Annual  Agricultural  Representatives'  Conference  held  in  June  a 
resolution  was  adopted  favouring  a  Province-wide  Alfalfa  Campaign.  The 
major  arguments  advanced  were: — 

(1)  The  long  recognized  advantages  of  the  crop. 

(2)  An  ample  supply  within  the  Province  of  hardy  home  grown  seed  at  a  reasonable  price. 

(3)  The  near  hay  famine  due  to  drought  in  Western  Ontario  in  1925  and  the  opportunity 
thus  afforded  for  alfalfa  to  demonstrate  its  superiority  under  this  adverse  condition. 

(4)  The  recent  more  widespread  distribution  of  alfalfa  and  the  success  attained  in  new 
territory'  and  farms  and  the  interest  resulting  from  this. 

Following  the  conference  a  Provincial  Committee  was  appointed  composed 
as  follows: — 

Executive  Committee 

Prof.  Wade  Toole,  Ontario  Agricultural  College,  Guelph,  Chairman. 

John  Buchanan,  Ontario  Agricultural  College,  Guelph,  Secretary. 

W.  J.  W.  Lennox,  Dominion  Seed  Branch,  Toronto. 

E.  H.  Stonehouse,  Weston,  President  Ontario  Milk  Producers'  Association. 

J.  A.  Carroll,  Assistant  Director,  Agricultural  Representative  Branch. 


1926 MINISTER  OF  AGRICULTURE 85 

Members 

W.  R.  Reek,  Director,  Experimental  Station,  Ridgetown,  Ontario. 

W.  J.  Bell,  Agricultural  School,  Kemptville,  Ontario. 

John  Gardhouse,  Ontario  Cattle  Breeders'  Association,  Weston,  Ontario. 

Walter  Scott,  Eastern  Canada  Live  Stock  Union,  Queensville,  Ontario. 

W.  P.  Macdonald,  Agricultural  Representative,  Lambton  County,  Petrolia. 

C.  M.  Meek,  Agricultural  Representative,  Carleton  County,  Carp. 

W.  M.  Croskery,  Agricultural  Representative,  Ontario  County,  Oxbridge. 

S.  E.  Todd,  Secretary,  Industrial  and  Development  Council  Canadian  Meat  Packers,  Toronto. 

R.  W.  Wade,  Director,  Ontario  Live  Stock  Branch,  Parliament  Buildings,  Toronto. 

R.  S.  Duncan,  Director,  Agricultural  Representative  Branch,  Toronto. 

This  committee  has  been  successful  in  securing  the  co-operation  of  provincial 
agricultural,  service  and  other  organizations.  An  extensive  campaign  has  been 
organized  to  be  conducted  particularly  in  the  winter  of  1925-26. 


LIVE  STOCK  IMPROVEMENT 


Cattle 

The  Live  Stock  Improvement  Campaign  commenced  in  1919  has  been 
continued  and  extended  from  year  to  year.  In  every  county  the  representative's 
office  acts  as  a  live  stock  exchange  putting  purchasers  in  touch  with  breeders 
who  have  listed  pure-bred  stock  for  sale.  In  many  counties  live  stock  improve- 
ment associations  were  formed,  and  these  associations  co-operating  with  the 
representative,  live  stock  breeders  and  Live  Stock  Branch,  have  done  very 
effective  work  in  the  Better  Sire  Campaign.  Some  very  marked  results  have 
been  attained  in  the  Counties  of  Perth,  Oxford  and  Essex.  In  Essex  a  two-year 
campaign  was  86  per  cent,  effective;  280  grade  bulls  have  been  removed  and 
225  pure-bred  bulls  placed. 

Cow  Testing 

The  representatives  located  in  counties  adjacent  to  large  cities,  or  where 
whole'  milk  is  produced,  have  been  called  upon  to  make  many  tests  of  milk  and 
cream.  While  this  is  a  useful  service  to  some  farmers,  it  does  not  accomplish 
much  in  permanently  improving  the  herds  of  the  Province.  In  some  sections 
organized  cow-testing  centres  have  been  established  and  the  most  successful  of 
these  has  been  conducted  in  Wentworth  County.  The  following  information 
taken  from  the  Wentworth  County  report  shows  what  has  been  accomplished 
in  a  comparatively  short  time  and  also  indicates  the  necessity  of  cow-testing 
work  being  carried  on  in  dairy  sections: — 

"The  Wentw-orth  Cow  Testing  Association  was  organized  in  June,  1924.  The  work  has  been 
most  successful  under  changing  conditions,  and  results  are  coming  from  the  work  of  the  Association 
which  will  have  lasting  effect  on  the  dairy  interests  of  the  county.  During  the  winter  one  of  the 
young  men  of  the  county  was  appointed  to  do  the  testing,  and  during  the  summer,  Mr.  S.  L. 
Page,  the  assistant,  did  the  testing  and  visited  a  number  of  herds.  The  following  is  the  report 
which  was  given  to  the  association  at  the  annual  meeting  in  July: — 

Number  of  members 123 

Number  of  cows  tested 1,385

The  results  which  we  have  secured  from  a  year's  testing  are  very  interesting 
and  the  outstanding  point  which  we  have  found  is  that  there  is  a  good  high 
average  for  the  cows  which  are  in  our  association.  From  the  results  it  would 
appear  that  the  average  for  all  the  cows  is  approximately  8,500  pounds.  We 
consider  this  average  extra  good  for  the  association.  A  comparison  of  the  second 
class  of  cows  shows  that  if  three  farmers  on  one  side  of  a  road  had  ten  cows 
of  the  first  class  and  three  men  on  the  other  side  had  thirty  poor  cows,  the 
farmers  who  had  the  good  cows  would  receive  each  $1,200  more  money  for  their 
product  that  was  sold. 

Variation  in  Testing 

The  results  of  the  association  have  shown  that  there  is  a  great  variation 
in  testing.  The  results  taken  from  several  herds  have  shown  that  the  first  pint 
tested  was  1.5  per  cent,  and  the  last  pint  6.3  per  cent.  Two  herds,  A  and  B 
were  tested  on  the  same  day,  morning  and  evening.  Herd  A  was  milked  at  5.30 
in  the  morning,  testing  3.1  per  cent,  and  at  5  o'clock,  one  half  hour  earlier  in 
the  evening,  testing  3.8  per  cent.  Every  cow  tested  higher  in  the  evening 
than  in  the  morning,  by  several  points.  Herd  B  was  milked  at  5  o'clock  in  the 
morning,  testing  3.3  per  cent,  and  at  7  o'clock  in  the  evening  testing  2.7  per  cent. 
In  this  herd  every  cow  tested  lower  in  the  evening,  just  the  opposite  to  Herd  A. 
Herd  B  is  not  a  low- testing  herd,  but  the  above  test  was  taken  in  the  month  of 
May  and  illustrates  the  tendency  to  get  a  low  test  during  the  month  of  May." 

The  foregoing  information  very  clearly  shows  what  can  be  done  by  a  properly 
organized  Cow-Testing  Association,  and  if  similar  work  were  carried  on  in  the 
other  dairy  sections  the  returns  to  the  dairy  farmers  would  be  greatly  increased, 
and  the  average  production  per  cow  in  the  Province  would  be  very  materially 
raised. 


Sheep 

The  agricultural  representatives  co-operated  with  the  sheep  promoters  of 
the  Dominion  Live  Stock  Branch  in  carrying  on  sheep  extension  work.  Through- 
out the  Province  sheep  improvement  has  steadily  advanced  during  1925. 
The  docking  and  castrating  campaign  has  been  effective  and  has  been  encouraged 
by  the  fact  that  the  packing  plants  have  made  a  cut  in  price  on  all  untrimmed

Working  in  conjunction  with  the  Federal  Sheep  and  Swine  Division  of  the 
Dominion  Live  Stock  Branch,  Market  Lamb  Fairs  were  held.  These  were  very 
successful  this  year  and  have  been  instrumental  in  demonstrating  to  the  pro- 
ducers the  importance  of  type,  finish,  and  marketing  uniform  car  lots  of  lambs 
at  the  desired  weights.  In  Manitoulin,  docking,  castrating  and  dipping  demon- 
strations were  put  on,  and  a  lamb  fair  was  held  at  Little  Current.  This  was  the 
first  market  lamb  fair  to  be  held  in  Northern  Ontario.  In  Rainy  River  nine 
permanent  dipping  tanks  were  installed.  A  car  load  of  thirty-three  pure-bred 
rams  were  placed  at  the  head  of  Rainy  River  flocks. 

SwiXE 

Since  the  policy  of  selling  hogs  on  grade  has  been  adopted  swine  improvement 
has  shown  a  marked  advancement.  In  almost  every  county,  and  even  in 
Northern  Ontario,  bacon  boar  clubs  have  been  organized  by  the  representatives, 
and  a  pure-bred  boar  loaned  by  the  Provincial  Live  Stock  Branch.  These  good 
type  boars  of  the  bacon  breeds  have  done  much  to  improve  the  quality  of  the 
hogs  marketed.  Grading  demonstrations  have  been  held  at  many  points  in  the 
Province,  and  there  is  evidence  to  prove  that  the  premium  paid  for  select  hogs 
is  now  being  received  by  the  farmer  in  the  majority  of  cases.  The  Bacon  Hog 
Fairs  held  this  year  in  Halton,  Hastings,  Lanark,  Northumberland,  Oxford, 
Simcoe,  Waterloo,  and  Wentworth  were  very  successful,  and  were  the  means  of 
distributing  much  good  breeding  stock  throughout  the  country. 

In  Oxford  County  some  very  outstanding  work  in  swine  improvement  has 
been  accomplished  and  the  representative  gives  the  following  information: — 

"A  systematic  hog  survey  has  been  made  of  the  County  and  Boar  Clubs  organized.  The 
first  club  boar  purchasec"  for  the  first  club  organized  in  the  county  has  proved  to  be  an  outstanding 
breeder.  His  record  is  incomplete,  but  we  have  accurate  knowledge  of  thirty-four  of  his  litters 
which  have  graded  72.4  per  cent,  selects.  The  IngersoU  Packing  Plant  forward  information 
weekly  making  it  possible  for  us  to  compile  record  of  performance  of  boars,  which  is  the  basis 
of  our  improvement  work.

"Four  boars  have  been  disposed  of  in  the  first  group,  six  in  the  second  group,  11  in  group  3, 
and  8  in  group  4.  From  these  figures  it  will  be  seen  that  there  were  nearly  twice  as  many  hogs  dis- 
posed of  in  the  last  two  groups  as  there  were  in  the  first  two;  or  in  other  words,  10  hogs  have 
been  disposed  of  in  the  first  two  groups  where  206  have  been  recorded,  and  19  from  the  last  two 
where  117  were  recorded.  With  this  rapidity  of  change  in  the  last  two  groups,  there  is  every 
prospect  of  our  being  able  to  replace  these  low  grade  hogs  in  a  comparatively  short  time,  and  in 
so  doing,  raise  the  quality  of  and  percentage  of  selects  very  materially,  over  the  whole  county." 


Poultry 

Interest  in  poultry  culling  and  improvement  continues  to  grow  from  year 
to  year,  and  the  representatives  receive  many  requests  for  assistance  and  advice 
regarding  poultry  improvement  and  management.  There  has  been  an  increased 
demand  for  poultry  culling  demonstrations  as  the  following  tables  will  indicate: —

90 REPORT  OF No.  21 

Co-operative  shipments  of  culls  were  successfully  carried  on  in  some  counties. 
In  many  instances  culling  schools  were  organized  and  junior  farmers  trained  in 
poultry  culling.  These  trained  3^oung  men  were  then  available  to  do  culling 
for  their  neighbours  at  a  small  fee  per  bird. 

CO-OPERATIVE  ORGAXIZATIOXS 

The  representatives  from  time  to  time  are  called  upon  for  advice  and 
assistance  in  organizing  egg-circles  and  co-operative  associations.  In  Oxford 
County  the  Oxford  Farmers'  Co-operative  Produce  Company  did  approximately 
$80,000  worth  of  business  in  poultry,  eggs,  etc.  This  company  also  had  the 
honour  of  sending  an  exhibit  of  eggs  to  the  British  Empire  Dairy  Show;  and  were 
successful  in  winning  first  in  the  colonial  section  of  the  show,  against  all  other 
colonial  shippers  in  the  British  Empire.  In  addition  to  this,  Oxford  eggs  won 
many  prizes  at  the  Canadian  National  Exhibition. 

In  Peel  County  the  Peel  County  Alfalfa  Producers'  Association  during  its 
second  year  of  business  handled  over  8,500  bushels  of  seed  or  a  business  turnover 
of  approximately  S88.000.  This  resulted  in  a  net  return  to  the  growers  of 
slighth'  over  SIO  per  bushel  in  the  rough  which  was  excellent  when  we  consider 
the  association  suffered  a  $2,000  loss  from  the  flood. 

The  Kenora  District  Co-operative  Seed  Growers'  Association  at  Oxdrift 
is  the  medium  through  which  90  per  cent,  of  the  seed  grown  in  this  district  is 
handled.  Last  year  they  sold  9,532  pounds  of  Red  Clover,  49,705  pounds  of 
Alsike,  and  15,465  pounds  of  mixed  seed. 

The  Manitoulin  Co-operative  Turkey  Growers'  Association,  organized  in 
August,  1925,  did  between  89,000  and  810,000  business.  This  association  holds 
a  rather  unique  position  in  that  it  is  the  only  association  of  its  kind  in  Canada. 
It  was  formed  for  the  express  purpose  of  assisting  to  develop  turkey  raising  and 
make  it  one  of  the  leading  industries  of  the  Island. 

Advisory  Agricultural  Counxils 

These  boards  appointed  by  the  county  councils  have  been  working  in 
co-operation  with  the  representatives  and  have  performed  a  very  useful  service 
in  many  counties.  They  meet  periodically  and  assist  in  outlining  and 
carrying  out  county  and  community  programmes. 

Agricultural  IMPRO^^ME^■T  Associations 

These  associations  are  quite  numerous  and  are  distributed  over  the  Province, 
embracing  practically  all  branches  of  agriculture.  The  representatives  assist 
these  organizations  in  carrying  out  their  yearly  programmes. 

EUROPEAN  CORN  BORER 

During  the  past  year  an  extensive  programme  to  combat  the  ravages  of  the 
corn  borer  was  put  on  in  several  counties,  but  more  particularly  in  Elgin,  Kent, 
Essex,  Lambton,  Middlesex,  Norfolk,  Oxford,  Northumberland,  Prince  Edward, 
Welland  and  Lincoln.  A  series  of  meetings  were  held  in  these  counties,  and  a 
specially  prepared  bulletin  distributed  to  thousands  of  farmers  in  the  most 
seriously  affected  counties.  While  it  is  impossible  to  tabulate  the  results  of  this 
campaign,  it  is  felt  that  considerable  good  had  been  accomplished  and  that  farmers 


1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE 91 

generally  have  a  better  knowledge  of  the  nature,  extent  of  damage  and  work  of 
the  corn  borer.  The  representatives  concerned  with  the  control  of  this  serious 
pest  are  of  the  opinion  that  the  time  is  opportune  for  some  form  of  provincial 
legislation  affecting  the  control  of  the  corn  borer.  In  all  this  campaign  the 
representatives  have  had  the  co-operation  and  assistance  of  the  Provincial 
Entomologist,  the  Director  of  the  Ridgetown  Experimental  Farm,  and  the 
Federal  Entomological  Branch. 

OTHER  ACTIVITIES 

It  is  impossible  in  a  report  of  this  nature  to  do  justice  to  all  the  many  lines  of 
work  carried  on  by  the  county  representatives.  In  Northern  Ontario  the  county 
men  have  assisted  the  Northern  Development  Branch  in  distributing  seed  grain, 
and  they  are  also  largely  responsible  for  preparing  an  exhibit  from  the  north  for 
the  Canadian  National  Exhibition  and  other  large  fairs.  At  Sudbury  and  New 
Liskeard  the  representatives  have  charge  of  Provincial  Demonstration  Farms. 
The  representatives  also  assisted  the  Forestry  Branch  in  distributing  trees  to 
farmers. 

THE  ANNUAL  CONFERENCE 

The  Annual  Conference  of  Agricultural  Representatives  has  gained  in 
usefulness  and  influence  each  year.  In  addition  to  affording  an  opportunity  for 
the  men  from  all  the  counties  and  districts  to  get  together  and  discuss  problems 
and  plans,  representatives  from  all  other  branches  of  the  Department  have  been 
appointed  on  committees  and  invited  to  participate  in  the  discussions  of  all 
sessions.  Officers  of  the  Federal  Department  of  Agriculture  who  have  been 
co-operating  in  different  phases  of  extension  work  in  Ontario  have  also  been 
included.  The  1925  conference  was  held  at  the  Kemptville  Agricultural  School 
— June  22nd,  23rd  and  24th,  and  at  the  Central  Experimental  Farm,  Ottawa — 
June  25th  and  26th. 

The  representatives  were  interested  in  observing  Eastern  Ontario  conditions 
and  in  inspecting  the  Kemptville  School  and  Central  Experimental  Farm  and  in 
meeting  officials  of  the  Federal  Department  of  Agriculture. 

The  conference  was  reorganized  this  year  with  very  satisfactory  results.  In 
order  to  allow  sufficient  time  for  thought  and  consideration  of  the  various  subjects 
referred  to  committees  and  to  permit  of  more  discussion  in  open  conference, 
committee  meetings  were  held  well  in  advance  of  the  general  conference.  Copies 
of  the  reports  were  sent  to  all  members  sufficiently  early  to  be  read  and  studied 
before  the  convention.

96  REPORT  OF  No.  21 


KEMPTVILLE  AGRICULTURAL  SCHOOL 

The  Kemptville  Agricultural  School  has  made  its  greatest  annual  progress 
<during  the  past  year,  in  point  of  attendance,  cropping,  and  live  stock  breeding 
operations,  as  well  as  in  general  interest  in  the  institution  by  farmers  of  Eastern 
Ontario. 

The  attendance,  in  the  regular  classes,  is  as  follows: — 

Agriculture 40  students 

Domestic  Science 17         " 

The  short  courses  conducted  at  the  school  were  as  follows: — 

Agriculture 35  students 

Teachers'  Summer  Course  in  Agriculture 60         " 

Working  with  the  Women's  Institute,  and  the  Agricultural  Representatives' 
Branches  of  the  Department,  a  conference  of  girls  and  one  of  Junior  Farmers 
were  held  at  the  school  during  the  fall  of  1925.  At  the  former,  fifty-two  girls  were 
in  attendance,  while  forty-two  young  farmers  took  advantage  of  their  helpful 
conference. 

During  the  summer,  the  county  rural  trustees  met  for  a  one-day  conference 
at  the  school,  when  subjects  of  vital  interest  to  the  education  of  the  young  people 
•of  the  county  were  considered. 

The  Annual  Field  Day  for  Junior  Farmers  of  Eastern  Ontario  is  annually 
increasing  in  popularity.     Over  four  thousand  were  in  attendance  in  1925. 

At  the  annual  re-union  of  ex-students  of  the  Kemptville  Agricultural  School, 
a  Kemptville  Agricultural  School  Alumni  Association  was  formed.  It  is  intended 
to  make  this  organization  a  medium  through  which  our  staff  can  work  for  the 
improvement  of  agricultural  conditions  in  those  sections  of  our  constituency 
from  which  we  draw  students. 

The  Dairy  Instructors  again  held  their  Field  Day  at  the  Kemptville  Agricul- 
tural School  in  1925,  and  were  joined  by  many  of  the  ofificers  and  members  of  the 
Eastern  Ontario  Dairymen's  Association.  The  day  was  profitably  spent  in 
"visiting  the  various  farm  departments,  while  a  short  programme  of  sports  was 
ccarried  out  on  the  school  campus. 

Many  county  automobile  tours  to  the  school  were  entertained  during  the 
<past  summer — principally  in  June  and  July — and,  as  a  result,  this  institution  is 
gradually  increasing  in  favour.  Many  visiting  farmers  have  expressed  their 
intention  of  adopting  some  of  our  farming  methods  and  varieties  of  crops. 

The  school  staff  was  specially  pleased  to  have  the  agricultural  representatives 
of  the  Province  hold  their  annual  conference  at  Kemptville  last  June.  Most  of 
these  men  had  not  seen  our  school  previous  to  this  visit.  One  of  the  outstanding 
men  in  the  service  stated  that  he  "had  not  seen  a  single  thing  around  the  farm 
-on  institution,  that  a  farmer  could  not  go  home  and  copy." 

The  live  stock  on  the  farm  has  been  improved  during  the  past  year  by  the 
addition  of  a  proven  Holstein  bull,  formerly  used  by  Mr.  Walburn  Rivers  of 
Ingersoll;  while  the  aged  Ayrshire  bull,  "Willowmoor  Peter  Pan  93rd,"  was 
^traded  to  the  American  Woollen  Mills  Company,  Andover,  Mass.,  U.S.A.,  for  a 
•calf  of  excellent  type,  from  a  high-producing  show  cow,  and  sired  by  Yellow 
Kate's  Exchange,  whose  first  twenty-eight  daughters  made  two-year-old  records 
f)f  close  to  12,000  pounds  milk,  testing  from  4  to  4.5  per  cent.  fat. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 97 

Yorkshire  hogs  have  done  well  during  the  past  year,  and  still  greater  improve- 
ment should  result  from  the  use  of  a  second  specially  desirable  hog  loaned  by  the 
Provincial  Live  Stock  Branch.  It  is  now  necessary  to  increase  the  capacity  of 
the  hog  plant,  as  the  local  demand  for  breeding  Yorkshires  is  double  the  supply. 

The  shortage  in  Ontario  of  bulls  of  breeding  age  has  resulted  in  a  quick  sale 
of  all  our  young  bulls.  Many  of  these  should  assist  materially  in  improving  the 
stock  on  the  farms  to  which  they  have  gone. 

To  accommodate  the  farmers  in  the  immediate  locality,  the  school  secured, 
for  the  season,  a  good  Clydesdale  stallion  from  Mr.  B.  Rothwell,  Ottawa.  Only 
a  fair  season  resulted,  owing  to  a  lack  of  interest  in  horse  breeding  in  Eastern 
Ontario. 

The  School  Poultry  Department  added  a  large  breeding  pen  to  its  plant 
during  the  past  year,  in  an  endeavour  to  supply  the  demand  for  hatching 
eggs.  Approximately  five  hundred  laying  hens  are  now  housed  in  the  plant, 
and  this  will  be  increased  during  the  coming  season  by  the  addition  of  White 
Wyandottes.  One  hundred  and  sixty-nine  (169)  cockerels  were  sold  during  the- 
year,  some  of  which  went  to  supply  the  breeding  stations  in  Eastern  Ontario. 
Of  this  number,  one  hundred  and  fifty-nine  were  Barred  Rocks,  and  ten  were. 
White  Leghorns. 

The  apiary  is  gradually  increasing  in  size  and  revenue.  Twenty  colonies 
were  taken  out  of  the  cases  last  spring,  and  had  increased  to  twenty-seven  strong 
colonies  in  the  fall.  A  little  over  twenty-one  hundred  pounds  of  honey  were 
marketed  during  the  season.     These  are  free  from  disease. 


FIELD  HUSBANDRY  DEPARTMENT 

The  season  of  1925  will  be  remembered  as  an  unusually  satisfactory  one  for 
the  production  of  abundant  crops  in  Eastern  Ontario.  Hay  crops  and  cereal 
grains  have  produced  abundance  of  feed  in  this  portion  of  the  Province,  while 
pastures  during  the  summer  months  were  maintained  much  better  than  the 
average,  especially  those  including  clover. 

On  the  Kemptville  Agricultural  School  Farm,  one  hundred  and  thirty  tons 
of  alfalfa,  or  mixtures  containing  alfalfa,  were  produced,  with  a  yield  per  acre  of 
approximately  3.5  tons.  Barley  gave  the  exceptional  yield  of  sixty-nine  bushels 
per  acre,  while  Banner  oats  yielded  seventy  bushels  per  acre.  Alaska  oats 
went  down  somewhat  badly  this  year,  and  yielded  forty-four  bushels  per  acre- 
These  oats  are  of  exceptional  quality  and  are  becoming  a  more  popular  oat  in 
Eastern  Ontario,  as  they  ripen  somewhat  earlier  than  Banner,  and  are  more 
likely  to  escape  serious  rust  infestations  and  are  a  very  suitable  oat  to  mix  with 
O.A.C.  No.  21  Barley,  as  both  mature  about  the  same  time. 

Barley  is  becoming,  as  it  should  be,  a  more  widely  grown  crop  in  Eastern 
Ontario.  Record  of  costs  kept  at  the  farm,  show  rather  conclusively  that  it  is 
a  more  profitable  crop  to  grow,  not  only  for  feed,  but  as  a  crop  which  can  be  sold 
for  seed  at  attractive  prices. 

Sweet  clover  again  gave  an  excellent  crop,  which  was  used  for  silage,  the 
quality  of  which  is  first-class.  The  use  of  this  crop  as  silage,  recommended  so 
strongly  by  the  Kemptville  Agricultural  School,  is  becoming  rapidly  more 
popular,  and  will  soon  replace  many  acres  of  corn  for  that  purpose.  No  corn 
was  grown  at  the  Kemptville  Agricultural  School  farm  this  year.  On  the  Lang- 
staff  Farm,  sweet  clover  provided  abundant  pasture  for  all  classes  of  live  stock. 


98 REPORT  OF No.  21 

The  seed  cleaning  plant  is  being  made  use  of  by  a  large  number  of  farmers, 
and  it  is  now  found  that  the  plant  and  certain  parts  of  the  equipment  are  not  of 
sufficient  capacity  to  take  care  of  the  constantly  increasing  business.  More 
than  eighty  tons  of  sweet  clover  were  scarified  and  graded  last  season,  as  well  as 
approximately  three  thousand  and  five  hundred  bushels  of  seed  grain.  A  new 
sweet  clover  scarifier  was  purchased  in  the  fall  of  1925  which  is  giving  very 
excellent  service. 

Several  fertilizer  tests  were  conducted  in  the  surrounding  counties,  these 
tests  covering  such  crops  as  alfalfa,  potatoes,  tomatoes,  celery,  corn  and  cabbage. 
As  alfalfa  is  gaining  rapid  headway  in  Eastern  Ontario,  it  was  considered  advisable 
to  carry  on  tests  to  determine  the  advantage,  if  any,  from  applications  of  lime- 
stone and  phosphate  manures.  From  observations  covering  three  years'  experi- 
ments in  this  part  of  the  Province,  we  are  led  to  think  that  one  needs  to  be 
cautious  in  advising  general  applications  of  limestone.  Surface  soils  may  some- 
times be  fairly  acid  and  yet  alfalfa  will  thrive  well  on  it.  No  test  yet  conducted 
shows  profitable  results  either  on  clay  or  lighter  types  of  soil.  More  positive 
results  are  shown  on  potatoes,  as  the  following  results  show.

Note. — This  was  not  a  fair  test,  due  to  the  wet  weather,  which  caused  quite  a  percentage 
to  rot  before  they  were  dug.  Some  rows  were  affected  more  than  others,  depending  on  the 
situation. 

Almost  similar  results  were  obtained  on  Mr.  John  Blane's  farm  at  Renfrew. 


HORTICULTURAL  DEPARTMENT 

^  During  the  past  year  the  work  undertaken  by  the  Horticultural  Department, 
in  connection  with  the  school,  has  comprised  work  along  several  lines.  With 
reference  to  school  work,  it  has  consisted  of  lecturing  on  the  several  branches  of 
horticulture,  namely  pomolog>^  vegetable  gardening  and  floriculture,  as  well  as 
the  subjects  of  botany  and  entomology*.  Outside  lectures  have  also  been  given 
at  a  number  of  points  to  societies  and  clubs  and  agricultural  short  courses  on 
horticultural  subjects. 

The  Horticultural  Department  consists  of  two  young  apple  orchards,  con- 
taining over  twelve  hundred  trees,  and  also  a  vegetable  and  small  fruit  garden, 
and  is  responsible  for  the  up-keep  and  general  development  of  the  grounds  around 
the  school  buildings.  Eighteen  months  ago,  a  small  greenhouse,  40'  by  15', 
was  built,  where  practical  work  is  carried  on  by  the  students  during  the  winter 
months.  The  same  small  house  serves  the  purpose  of  growing  early  material 
for  the  school  garden. 

The  care  of  the  grounds,  campus,  apple  orchards  and  vegetable  garden, 
engages  the  services  of  a  small  staff  for  the  summer  months  and  in  the  autumn 
a  quantity  of  the  material  thus  grown  is  canned  for  school  purposes,  in  a  small

two-unit  home  canning  plant.  The  material  canned  last  year  consisted,  approxi- 
mately, of  one  thousand  tins  of  tomatoes,  four  hundred  tins  of  corn  and  two 
hundred  tins  of  other  vegetables. 

The  apple  orchard,  though  small,  has  been  able  to  produce  fruit  deemed  of 
sufficient  merit  to  be  included  in  the  provincial  fruit  exhibit  displayed  in  London, 
England,  but,  as  yet,  the  crop  from  the  orchards  largely  consists  of  fruit  from  such 
fall  varieties  as  Duchess  and  Wealthy.  The  quantity  so  far  produced  has  been 
no  more  than  could  be  usefully  employed  for  purposes  in  the  school  dining-room. 

The  general  supervision  of  the  Forestry  Nursery,  is  also  undertaken  by  this 
Department.  This  nursery,  although  small,  is  one  of  several  under  the  direction 
of  the  Forestry  Branch  of  the  Department  of  Lands  and  Forests,  Toronto,  and  is 
for  the  purpose  of  growing  young  tree  stock  to  distribute  for  reforestation 
purposes.  In  this  connection  some  eighty  thousand  young  trees  were  handled 
last  spring,  and  a  similar  amount  will  be  available  for  distribution  during  the 
coming  season. 

During  the  year,  a  number  of  demonstrations  have  been  given  in  orchard 
pruning  and  spraying,  at  different  outside  points,  and  suggestions  and  plans 
have  been  made  for  planting  home  and  school  surroundings,  and,  where  possible, 
personal  visits  have  been  made  to  assist  in  carrying  out  the  suggestions  given. 


100  REPORT  OF  No.  21 


RIDGETOWN  EXPERIMENTAL  FARM 

Crops,  with  the  exception  of  hay,  were  good.  The  very  dry  period  during 
May  and  early  June  was  ruinous  to  the  hay  crop  and  more  especially  to  the  red 
clover;  fields  of  alfalfa  that  had  been  down  two  or  more  years  was  not  seriously 
affected.  The  wheat,  barley,  oats,  potatoes  and  tomatoes  were  injured  by  frost 
on  May  24th.  The  wheat  never  recovered  properly  but  the  barley  and  oats 
were  excellent;  the  potatoes  recovered  but  were  ten  days  later  than  they  other- 
wise would  have  been.  Corn  was  a  fair  crop  yielding  eighty  bushels  of  ears  per 
acre.     Beans  promise  to  be  considerably  more  than  average. 

The  crop  of  Spies  was  excellent.  The  thorough  spraying  ensured  a  clean 
crop.  Local  demand  for  clean  apples  was  strong  and  would  have  consumed  a. 
much  larger  quantity. 

The  crops  were  as  follows: — 

Wheat  20  acres 457  bushels 

Barlev  12  acres 578       " 

Oats  22  acres 1,518       " 

Beans  —  acres (not  threshed) 

The  production  of  spinach  seed  for  southern  trade  was  tested.  The  seed 
was  supplied  through  a  company  in  conjunction  with  the  Horticultural  Depart- 
ment of  the  Ontario  Agricultural  College,  and  two-thirds  of  an  acre  was  planted.. 
The  crop  was  injured  considerably  through  the  dry  spell  in  May  and  June  but 
496  pounds  were  harvested,  and,  for  this  particular  season,  the  price  of  fifteen 
cents  wholesale  was  set,  making  a  return  of  $74.40,  or  at  the  rate  of  $11L60  per 
acre.  The  seed  was  sown  with  an  ordinary  hand  drill  and  the  balance  of  the  work,, 
including  harvesting  and  threshing,  was  handled  exactly  the  same  as  beans^ 
This  would  appear  to  be  worthy  of  consideration  as  a  crop  for  this  part  of  the 
country  in  so  far  as  a  market  can  be  arranged. 

The  Season. — The  season  of  1925  was  most  peculiar.  Much  of  the  winter's- 
frost  came  out  in  February  but  during  March  there  was  the  usual  thawing  and 
freezing.  The  planting  season,  however,  was  comparatively  early  partly  because 
of  the  lack  of  moisture  the  previous  fall.  The  early  growth  was  only  medium 
and  when  the  dry  spell  commenced  during  May  the  grain  in  some  sections  had 
been  cut  somewhat  with  frost  and  was  only  in  fair  condition  to  meet  such  a  drouth. 
Rain  came  about  the  middle  of  June  and  all  crops  developed  remarkably  resulting 
in  a  bumper  crop  of  wheat,  oats,  barley,  beans  and  corn,  where  the  corn  borer 
did  not  affect  the  crop  too  seriously.  The  early  frost  on  May  24th  did  consider- 
able damage  but  not  so  much  as  in  other  parts  of  the  Province.  The  season 
closed  with  an  abundance  of  rain  and  for  the  first  time  during  two  or  three  years 
there  is  a  sufficient  supply  of  moisture  for  a  reserve.

Seed  Supply. — The  value  of  good  seed  is  not  yet  appreciated  throughout 
the  Province  and  not  even  in  any  particular  district  to  the  extent  that  it  should 
be.  The  farmers  of  the  Province  are  losing  a  labour  income  by  not  using  the 
best  seed  available. 

A  special  effort  has  been  made  to  secure  and  improve  the  seed  beans  at  the 
farm  and  during  the  last  two  seasons  all  the  crop  was  sold  to  the  neighbouring 
farmers;  the  result  must  have  been  satisfactory  because  this  year, 
before  the  beans  are  threshed,  the  greater  part  are  contracted  for  in  ten  bushel 
lots  for  seed  purposes. 

All  the  wheat  grown  is  annually  sold  for  seed.  Increasing  quantities  of  oats 
and  barley  are  in  demand  every  spring.  O.A.C.  21  barley  and  Banner 
oats  have  been  used  but  O.A.C.  144  oats  will  be  ready  for  distribution  in  the 
spring  of  1927. 

Several  thousand  asparagus  plants  of  the  Mary  Washington  strain  will  be 
available  for  distribution  in  1926. 

Underdrainage. — During  October  and  November  3,159  rods  of  tile  were 
laid  with  a  traction  ditcher.  Approximately  120  acres  have  been  thoroughly 
drained  since  the  farm  was  purchased.  Eour-inch  tile  were  the  smallest  size  used 
in  drains  fifty  feet  apart  and  two  and  a  half  feet  deep. 

An  experimental  drainage  plot  was  installed  to  compare  the  effect  of  distance 
apart  and  depth  of  drains,  as  follows: — 


3 

feet  deep 

and  d 

rain; 

3  50  feet  apart

Buildings. — A  poultry  house  40'  by  16'  was  built.  The  demand  for 
eggs  for  setting  and  cockerels  for  breeding  is  becoming  heavy  and  the  accom- 
modation was  not  suitable  for  the  production  of  chickens  except  on  a  very  small 
scale. 

A  greenhouse  100'  by  32'  was  commenced  and  will  be  ready  for  use  during 
the  winter.  The  work  in  early  vegetables  necessitated  such  a  house  for  the  start- 
ing of  plants,  the  study  of  diseases,  etc.  Much  use  will  be  made  of  it  in  connection 
with  the  Agricultural  Vocational  School. 

The  root  cellar  was  built  under  the  farm  shop  and  gives  ample  space  for  the 
storing  of  mangels,  potatoes,  apples  and  onions. 

Improvement  to  Grounds. — The  interest  in  flowers  and  home  surroundings 
was  suft.'cient  to  warrant  a  change  in  the  general  plan  of  the  entrance  to  the  farm 
so  that  a  small  flower  garden  might  be  included.  The  roadway  leading  into  the 
farm  was  changed  permitting  space  for  demonstration  with  flowers;  the  old 
roadway  was  laid  down  to  sod  on  either  side  of  a  cement  walk.  A  perennial 
border  was  planted.  Borders  of  shrubs  were  planted.  Three  windbreaks,  two 
rows  of  Scotch  pine  and  one  of  Norway  spruce  in  each,  were  set  out  to  protect 
the  buildings  from  the  prevailing  winds.  Roads  were  drained  and  gravelled  as 
time  would  permit. 

Extension  Work. — Agricultural  meetings  and  short  courses  were  attended 
in  Essex,  Kent  and  Elgin.  Some  work  developed  in  connection  with  the  Kent 
County  Potato  Growers'  Association  and  was  taken  care  of. 

The  Peninsular  Winter  Fair. — The  second  Winter  Fair  was  held  in 
Chatham  in  December,  1924,  and  the  time  necessary  to  organize  and  handle  it 
was  spent  by  the  director  of  this  farm  in  Chatham.     Considerable  time  was  also 


102 REPORT  OF No.  21 

given  to  considering  ways  and  means  of  making  the  fair  permanent.  The 
organization  of  the  fair  for  December,  1925,  was  more  largely  assumed  by  the 
agricultural  representative  for  Kent  County. 

The  Corn  Borer. — During  the  winter  of  1924-25  much  time  was  given  to 
assisting  at  meetings,  etc.,  re  the  corn  borer.  The  result  of  the  effort  proved  that 
in  many  sections  the  borer  had  not  as  yet  done  sufficient  damage  to  thoroughly 
convince  the  people  that  it  was  a  real  menace;  also  that  the  legislation  enacted 
would  not  meet  the  situation  because  of  the  rapid  spread  of  the  borer  over  the 
Province.  On  the  farm,  during  1925,  the  infestation  was  as  heavy  as  in  1924 
but  did  not  do  so  much  damage,  due  perhaps  to  the  very  rapid  growth  of  the 
crop.  On  the  whole  the  acreage  was  reduced  and  in  some  sections  a  further 
reduction  will  take  place  in  1925.  When  the  provincial  legislation  is  passed 
undoubtedly  there  will  be  more  careful  planning  of  crops  so  that  the  recom- 
mendations, which  may  be  made  under  the  Act,  can  be  complied  with. 

The  Agricultural  \'ocatioxal  School. — The  development  work  accom- 
plished during  the  past  fiscal  year  resulted  in  the  building  of  a  school,  by  the 
Government,  large  enough  to  accommodate  four  standard  classrooms  and  a 
community  hall.  The  building  will  not  be  completed  until  late  winter  but  will 
be  ready  for  pupils  on  September  1st,  1926.  The  Ridgetow^n  High  School  and 
the  Agricultural  School  will  be  placed  under  one  principal  in  order  to  secure  the 
greatest  efficiency  possible.  The  public  opinion  throughout  the  surrounding 
country  is  particularly  favourable  toward  the  establishment  of  such  a  school 
and  especially  so  because  a  definite  endeavour  is  to  be  made  to  give  boys  and 
girls  an  education  suitable  for  farm  life  rather  than  reaching  set  standards  which 
permits  entry  to  the  universities  and  colleges.  The  arrangement  of  the  curri- 
culum cannot  be  accomplished  in  one  year,  but  will  be  completed  only  when  it 
is  determined  how  long  boys  and  girls  will  attend  such  an  institution.  The 
courses  outlined  and  the  personality  of  the  staff  will  greatly  influence.  However,, 
it  is  hoped  that  the  boys  will  attend  regularly  for  three  to  four  years  as  they  would 
at  high  school  and  then  come  back  in  the  winter  for  four  or  five  months'  course 
in  more  advanced  work.  The  farm  is  a  necessary  adjunct  for  demonstrations 
and  demonstration  material. 

EXPERIMENTAL  PLANT  WORK 

A  number  of  experiments  were  carried  on  for  the  control  of  plant  diseases^ 
some  of  which  were  at  the  Experimental  Farm  and  some  at  other  places  in  Kent 
and  Essex  Counties. 

An  experiment  for  the  control  of  oat  smut  was  carried  on  at  the  Experimental 
Farm  much  similar  to  that  of  1924,  but  some  different  chemicals  were  used- 
Fourteen  plots  were  sown  in  triplicate,  each  was  1/100  of  an  acre.  Only  one 
substance  in  addition  to  formaldehyde  gave  complete  control  of  smut. 

Stinking  smut  of  wheat  has  become  very  troublesome  in  south-western 
Ontario  during  the  past  few  years,  so  during  September  seven  plots  were  sown  in 
duplicate,  each  1/100  of  an  acre.  Various  chemicals  were  used  in  the  treatment 
of  the  wheat  but  results  will  not  be  known  until  next  year.. 

The  work  in  beans  for  the  control  of  anthracnose  and  mosaic  was  continued 
and  seed  from  the  1924  crop  which  had  been  rogued  for  mosaic  and  hand  picked" 
for  anthracnose  was  sown.  Most  of  the  plots  in  this  work  had  only  a  small 
amount  of  mosaic  while  one  had  considerable.  The  amount  of  anthracnose 
varied  from  less  than  1  per  cent.,  to  about  5  per  cent.. 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 103 

In  some  places  in  the  Pelee  onion  marshes,  smut  is  causing  considerable 
loss  in  the  crop,  especially  if  the  formalin  treatment  is  not  given.  During  the 
past  season  formalin  and  kalamit  were  both  tried  at  various  strengths,  the  object 
being  to  get  as  strong  a  solution  as  possible  without  causing  germination  injury. 
There  was  very  little  difference  in  the  quantity  of  onions  produced  where  kalamit 
and  formalin  were  used  in  the  same  quantity. 

The  highest  yield  was  obtained  where  formalin  was  used  at  the  rate  of  one 
pint  to  sixteen  gallons  of  water,  and  130  gallons  of  this  solution  to  the  acre. 
This  gave  a  yield  of  568  bushels  per  acre,  whereas  in  the  untreated  section  the 
yield  was  198  bushels  per  acre. 

In  some  of  the  greenhouses  in  the  Leamington  district,  cucumber  anthracnose 
has  become  very  troublesome  and  experiments  for  the  control  of  this  disease 
were  carried  on,  and  although  the  disease  was  held  in  check  by  using  Bordeaux 
mxture,  the  spray  seemed  to  interfere  in  some  way  with  the  development  of  the 
fruit,  so  further  experiments  will  have  to  be  tried  before  an^-thing  definite  can  be 
given  with  reference  to  spraying. 

Assistance  was  given  to  a  number  of  growers  in  spraying  apples,  plums  and 
cheeries,  and  many  inquiries  were  received  with  reference  to  various  other  diseases 
and  insect  pests  such  as  brown  rot  of  plums,  peach  curl  leaf,  yellow  leaf  of  cherries, 
fire  blight,  leaf  curl,  mosaic  and  red  spider  of  raspberries,  control  of  nematodes 
in  greenhouses,  and  various  diseases  of  tomatoes  and  potatoes. 

Feeding  of  Steers 

Thirty  Hereford  steers,  purchased  in  Western  Canada,  were  fed  instead  of 
using  Ontario  bred  cattle.  During  the  two  previous  years,  Ontario  steers  were 
fed;  the  cost  of  production  per  pound  gain  in  each  year  was  approximately 
eight  cents  but  in  the  winter  of  1924-25  the  cost  was  13.3  cents.  This  might 
be  accounted  for  in  one  or  tw'o  ways:  the  first  is  that  the  Western  steers,  perhaps, 
did  not  settle  down  to  their  feeding  as  quickly  as  the  native  steers,  or  the  corn  and 
silage,  perhaps,  did  not  have  the  same  feeding  value.

104 REPORT  OF Xo.  21 

Seed  Selection'  Work 

Last  year  some  work  was  carried  on  in  connection  with  the  roughness  of  Dent 
corn.  This  work  was  continued  but  was  ruined  through  the  ravages  of  the 
corn  borer.  The  O.A.C.  211  variety  of  Soy  beans  was  grown  and  passed  inspec- 
tion in  the  field  for  registration  and  application  will  be  made  for  inspection  in  the 
bin,  in  order  that  they  may  be  fully  registered.  Most  of  the  selection  work  with 
seed,  however,  was  done  with  the  white  pea  bean.  Considerable  attention  was 
given  to  the  results  of  the  crosses  made  a  year  ago  and  grown  this  season.  The 
idea  is  to  secure  a  bean  immune  to  anthracnose.  Some  very  promising  plants 
were  selected  and  will  be  used  for  further  work  during  the  coming  season.  \'ery 
careful  roguing  of  plots  for  mosaic  was  undertaken  and  will  be  used  for  the  farm 
seed  next  year.  Considerable  attention  was  paid  to  the  earliness  of  particular 
strains  which  were  grown,  as  it  is  a  considerable  factor  in  the  ordinary  field 
production.  Considerable  plant  and  pod  selections  were  made  from  the  selection 
secured  the  previous  year. 

Fertilizer  Tests 

Extensive  fertilizer  tests  were  carried  on  throughout  the  district  on  repre- 
sentative farms  on  the  following  crops: — 

Corn. — All  the  corn,  with  the  exception  of  two  plots,  were  ruined  by  the 
corn  borer.     Application  300  pounds  per  acre. 

.Bgaw5.— Application  at  the  rate  of  300  pounds  per  acre. 

Onions. — Application  at  the  rate  of  1,200  pounds  per  acre. 

Early  Tomatoes. — Application  at  the  rate  of  800  pounds  per  acre. 

Potatoes. — Eight  hundred  pounds  per  acre. 

The  variations  in  the  seasons  seem  to  have  such  a  very  great  influence  that 
there  15  every  indication  that  a  mixed  fertilizer  will  give  the  best  results  over  a 
period  of  years.  To  ascertain  the  correct  combination  and  the  amounts  per  acre 
will  take  time.  The  value  of  tlie  crop  per  acre  must  be  carefully  considered  in 
order  that  the  application  of  artificial  fertilizer  may  be  economical.  Detailed 
information  as  to  results  is  available  at  the  farm.  In  the  great  majority  of 
cases  the  increases  paid  for  the  fertilizer  and  a  good  profit  as  well. 

Swine  Work 

The  foundation  for  breeding  purposes  has  been  increased  to:— 

Yorkshire  Boars 2  Sows 9 

Tamworth  Boars 1  Sows 4 

Berkshire  Boars 1  Sows 4 

Two  litters  per  year  per  sow  are  raised. 

Twenty-three  sows  were  sold  for  breeding  purposes  and  many  more  could 
Tiave  been  placed.  Previously,  emphasis  had  been  placed  upon  pigs  for  experi- 
mental rather  than  for  breeding  purposes,  consequently  the  number  suitable  for 
sale  was  small.  There  is  a  growing  favourable  public  opinion  towards  type  of 
pig  that  is  satisfactory  for  the  production  of  bacon,  which  is  particularly  in 
evidence  when  purchasers  are  selecting  sows. 

During  1924  some  pens  were  fed  on  balanced  and  unbalanced  rations;  the 
latter  arrangement  was  comparable  to  ordinary  methods  in  this  part  of  Ontario. 
The  work  was  duplicated  in  1925.     Litters  of  Tamworths,  Durocs,  Yorks  and 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 105^ 

Chesters  were  divided ;  one-half  were  placed  on  balanced  and  the  other  half  on 
unbalanced  rations.  In  every  case  the  pens  on  unbalanced  rations  were  the 
most  expensive  to  feed  and  took  from  thirty  to  fifty  days  longer  to  feed. 

The  experiments  of  the  two  years  coupled  with  those  of  previous  years 
using  a  balanced  ration  of  corn,  oats  and  tankage  show  rather  conclusively  that 
the  system  in  vogue,  where  corn  is  largely  used  without  being  balanced,  is  the 
most  expensive  method  of  producing  pork  under  southwestern  Ontario  con- 
ditions. Moreover,  when  a  balanced  ration  is  used,  good  bacon  can  be  produced 
more  cheaply  than  the  ordinary  product.  Therefore,  considering  the  time  and 
cost  of  production,  there  is  no  particular  reason  for  continuing  under  a  system 
which  is  the  most  expensive  and  which  does  not  produce  a  product  suitable  for 
export,  except  that  farm  systems  once  firmly  established  cannot  be  changed  in  a 
year  or  two;  and  that  sufiicient  foundation  breeding  stock  cannot  be  secured 
except  over  a  period  of  years  and  that  a  new  system  of  feeding  requires  time  to 
become  established,  especially  when  there  is  coupled  with  it  a  change  in  the  type 
of  animal  to  be  fed. 

Recent  laboratory  investigational  work  in  England  with  feeds  suggested", 
some  unthought  of  causes  for  soft  pork.  By  arrangement  with  the  Industrial 
and  Development  Council  of  the  Canadian  Packers  some  experiments  were 
carried  on  with  different  feed  mixtures;  the  pigs  were  killed  and  graded  before 
and  after  curing  by  William  Davies  Company.  The  pigs  were  of  two  litters  sired 
by  the  same  hog  and  in  every  pen  of  three  there  was  one  or  two  of  each  litter^ 
The  results  are  not  conclusive  but  are  sufficiently  interesting  to  warrant  further 
work. 

By  arrangement  with  the  Murray  Stock  Food  Company,  experiments  were 
carried  on  to  determine  the  value  of  their  product  in  the  production  of  pork. 
Pigs  from  three  litters  were  selected  and  those  of  each  litter  divided  into  two 
pens.  One  pen  of  cross  breds  and  one  pen  of  Yorks  did  not  receive  any  of  the 
mineral  but  received  the  mixture  used  on  the  farm.  Salts  had  to  be  used  very 
frequently  for  those  pens  receiving  mineral. 

Use  of  Soy  Beans 

Xhe  value  of  Soy  Beans  as  a  hog  food  has  not  yet  been  determined;  the- 
increase  in  acreage  in  Ontario  may  be  rapid.  Owing  to  the  palatability  of  the 
beans,  they  may  be  used  as  a  food  for  any  class  of  live  stock  but  because  of  the 
high  percentage  of  oil  they  do  not  constitute  a  very  reliable  food  for  pigs  and 
especially  where  high-class  bacon  is  being  aimed  at. 

Two  pens  were  fed  up  to  10  per  cent.  Soy  Beans  with  a  mineral  such  as  is 
being  used  in  Indiana  and  other  states  in  an  endeavour  to  produce  a  high  quality 
product  and  use  at  least  one-tenth  of  the  ration  as  beans. 

Pen  1  was  fed  a  mixture  of: —     - 

Wood  ashes  2J^  pounds. 
Acid  phosphate  2J^  pounds. 
Salt  j^  pound. 
Whiting  Y2  pound. 

Pen  2  was  fed  a  mixture  of: — 

Wood  ashes  IY2  pounds. 
Acid  phosphate  l}/i  pounds. 
Salt  yi  pound. 


106 REPORT  OF No.  21 

The  mineral  was  left  before  them  constantly  and  they  ate  at  will.  In  the 
grading  of  the  carcasses  by  William  Davies,  all  those  fed  on  beans  produced 
soft  sides  and  were  pasty  and  sticky.  No  other  carcasses  graded  for  the  farm 
were  pasty  whereas  some  were  soft. 

In  a  previous  experiment  the  beans  produced  soft  sides. 

The  experiment  will  be  duplicated  during  the  winter  of  1925-26. 

Essex  and  Kent  hogs  are  at  a  discount  on  the  market  and  the  introduction 
of  any  additional  food  except  it  be  one  which  will  produce  firm  pork  must  be 
adopted  with  care.  Unless  some  factor  can  be  obtained  which  will  counteract 
the  tendency  of  Soy  Beans  to  produce  soft  pork,  we  had  better  not  use  them  as 
pig  feed. 

Extensive  experiments  are  being  conducted  in  the  United  States  along  this 
line.

110  REPORT  OF  No.  21 


NEW  LISKEARD  DEMONSTRATION  FARM 

The  New  Liskeard. Demonstration  Farm,  as  it  is  now  known,  was  established 
in  1922.  Previous  to  this,  the  Demonstration  Farm  for  this  district  was  situated  at 
Monteith ;  but  for  different  reasons  the  Farm  there  was  transferred  to  the  Depart- 
ment of  Education,  and  is  now  operated  by  them  in  connection  with  the  Northern 
Academy.  The  New  Liskeard  Farm,  therefore,  is  comparatively  new  and  the 
major  portion  of  the  work  so  far  has  been  that  of  organization  and  development. 
Along  with  this,  assistance  has  been  given  to  farmers  with  their  problems,  by 
letter,  visits  to  communities,  and  to  those  who  visited  the  Farm  from  time  to 
time.  The  Farm  serves  a  distinct  purpose  m  being  a  centre  for  the  distribution 
of  good  live  stock.  This  year  there  has  been  distributed  from  the  Farm  twenty- 
one  Shropshire  rams,  one  Shorthorn  bull  calf  and  one  Holstein  bull  calf. 

The  Farm  proper,  as  it  is  now  composed,  consists  of  some  330  acres;  all  of 
which  is  cleared.  The  soil  is  typical  Northern  Ontario  clay  with  a  fair  amount 
of  organic  matter  in  the  top  layer.  The  greater  portion  of  the  land  is  level  but 
with  sufficient  fall  for  drainage.  The  Western  boundary  of  the  Farm  lies  along 
the  bank  of  the  Wabi  River,  and  few  fields  have  rather  deep  ravines  extending 
for  a  short  distance  back. 

During  the  year  following  resignation  of  the  superintendent  the  Farm  was 
placed  under  the  direction  of  the  agricultural  representative,  the  better  to 
co-ordinate  the  work  of  the  two  offices. 


Dates  of  Farm  Operations 

The  dates  upon  which  the  more  important  Farm  operations  have  com- 
menced for  the  past  year,  are  as  follows: —

Seasonal  Notes 

The  total  precipitation  recorded  at  the  Demonstration  Farm  during  the 
year,  ending  November  30th,  was  22.38  inches,  which  is  very  slightly  higher  than 
the  average  for  the  past  three  years.  The  year  1924  was  considerably  dryer, 
while  the  year  1923  had  a  much  heavier  rainfall.  For  the  seven  (7)  months 
period,  April  1st  to  October  31st,  the  total  precipitation  was  15.55  inches,  which 
is  somewhat  below  the  average  for  thirty  (30)  years,  of  20.48  inches.  The  months 
of  June  and  July,  however,  both  had  rather  heavy  rainfall.  During  the  month  of 
June  there  fell  5.2  inches,  which  is  exceeded  only  by  the  month  of  June,  1898, 
when  5.55  inches  fell. 

The  spring  opened  during  the  latter  part  of  April,  but  it  remained  cool  and 
very  little  work  was  done  on  the  land  until  about  the  middle  of  May.  The 
whole  season  may  be  characterized  as  being  somewhat  cool,  the  highest  tempera- 
tures were  during  the  first  part  of  the  month  of  June,  when  the  thermometer 
registered  94.  This  was  followed  by  the  very  heavy  rainfall.  It  is  rather 
noticeable  that  February  was  much  warmer  than  the  February  of  either  1923  or 
1924.  October,  on  the  other  hand,  was  much  cooler  than  either  of  these  years 
— 1923,  1924 — while  the  other  months  compare  very  closely.  The  last  frost  was 
on  May  27th,  while  the  first  frost  in  the  fall  was  on  August  27th,  leaving  a  frost 
free  period  of  ninety-one  days.  While  not  as  short  as  the  period  in  1923,  which 
was  a  record,  still  it  is  considerably  below  the  average  of  one  hundred  and 
twenty-five  days. 

There  were  280  days  on  which  the  sun  shone  brightly,  with  a  total  of  1509.7 
hours  of  bright  sunshine,  or  an  average  of  5.3  hours  per  day.  This  is  above  the 
average  number  of  bright  days,  but  is  below  the  total  number  of  hours,  there 
being  an  average  during  the  last  three  years,  of  1853.96  hours  for  the  season. 
The  month  of  August,  had  the  largest  monthly  total  of  hours  of  sunshine,  and 
also  the  most  number  of  hours  per  day,  with  an  average  of  8.16,  while  October 
had  the  least,  with  an  average  of  2.26  hours  per  day.

demand  for  dairy  produce,  milk  and  butter  in  particular,  greatly  exceeds  the 
supply,  and  there  is  thus  created  a  market  at  all  times  for  the  surplus  which  the 
farmer  has  for  sale.  During  the  winter,  the  dairy  herd  furnishes  the  farmer  with 
a  profitable  market  for  his  field  crops,  and  the  labour  of  himself  and  family 
right  at  home. 

The  dairy  herd  on  the  Demonstration  Farm    is  composed  of  one  mature 

bull,  five  mature  cows,  five  heifers    and  two  calves,  all  of  the  Holstein  breed. 

These  were  all  purchased  during  the  year,  with  the  exception  of  the  calves,  which 

were  raised  on  the  Farm.     The  bull  at  the  head  of  the  herd,  "Champion  Hartog 

Canary — 62393 — "  is  quite  a  good  individual,  with  high  producing  ancestry. 

His  five  nearest  dams  average: — 

Butter  7  davs 29 .  70  pounds 

Milk " 570.72  pounds

His  sire  has  a  25,000  pound  sister  with  U148  pounds  butter,  and  another 
sister  with  20,000  pounds  as  a  three-year-old. 

His  dam  is  a  25-pound  daughter  of  the  25-pound  cow,  "Victoria  Teake 
3rd"  and  by  a  son  of  the  first  30-pound  cow  in  Canada,  "Nanuet  Topsy 
Clothilde." 

The  five  heifers  mentioned  were  sired  by  a  brother  of  the  bull  purchased  by 

the  Japanese  government.     A  peculiar  feature  in  connection  with  these  heifers 

is  that  they  are  composed  of  one  set  of  triplets,  and  one  pair  of  twins.     The 

entire  herd  was  tested  for  tuberculosis  during   the  year   and  was  found  to  be 

completely  free.

Beef  Cattle. — The  keeping  of  beef  cattle  should  also  receive  considerable 
attention  by  the  farmers  of  Northern  Ontario.  There  is  quite  a  marked  local 
demand  for  the  product,  and  the  herd  will  supply  a  profitable  market  for  crops 
grown  on  the  Farm.  This  was  brought  particularly  to  our  notice  during  the 
last  year  or  so,  when  the  price  of  hay  has  been  so  abnormally  low. 

The  herd  of  beef  cattle  on  the  Farm  is  of  the  Shorthorn  breed  and  consists 
of  one  Shorthorn  bull,  two  cows,  five  heifers  and  one  young  bull.  The  head  of 
the  herd,  "Bloomingdale  Master  Melody — 168290 — "  is  a  splendid  individual 
of  the  milking  Shorthorn  strain.  He  traces  to  "Master  Melody,"  and  his 
grand-dam  on  both  sides  were  20,000-pound  cows.  He  is  also  related  to  "Bloom- 
ingdale Monarch,"  the  Grand  Champion  at  the  1924  International,  and  owned 
by  S.  J.  Macy  of  Caledonia,  N.Y.  One  of  these  cows  is  distinctly  of  a  milking 
Shorthorn  strain,  and  has  produced  over  10,600  pounds  of  milk  from  March 
until  November  30th.  The  other  cow  is  quite  opposite  in  type,  being  more  of  a 
beefy  character. 

Feeding  Steers. — During  November  of  last  year,  the  Farm  Superintendent, 
purchased  in  Winnipeg,  and  brought  to  the  Farm,  a  car  load  of  steers.  These 
showed  considerable  Hereford  breeding  and  were  quite  a  uniform  lot.  They 
were  fed  for  150  days  indoors,  and  then  sold  on  the  Toronto  market.  The 
results  of  this  trial  are  given  in  the  accompanying  table. 

While  no  records  were  kept  of  the  cost  of  feed  or  labour  in  connection  with 
the  feeding  of  these  steers,  it  would  appear  that  there  might  be  something  in  the 
feeding  of  steers  over  winter,  taking  into  consideration  that  the  feed  was  the 
product  of  the  Farm,  and  that  it  was  difficult  to  find  a  suitable  market  for  it 
otherwise.

Sheep. — The  flock  of  sheep  on  November  30th  consisted  of  50  ewes,  18  ewe 
lambs,  5  ram  lambs  and  one  ram,  all  registered  Shropshires.  Considerable 
difficulty  was  experienced  during  the  lambing  season,  with  the  lambs  coming 
weak.  There  was  rather  a  high  mortality,  with  the  result  that  the  lamb  crop 
was  not  as  large  as  it  might  of  been.  The  Farm  has  been  the  centre  of  distri- 
bution for  some  seventeen  shearling,  and  two-shear  rams,  and  four  ram  lambs. 
These  were  all  distributed  locally  direct  from  the  Farm.  This  service  seems 
to  be  appreciated  by  the  farmers  of  the  district  and  will  be  continued  in  the 
future.  The  flock  of  ewes  was  culled  out  during  the  year,  and  twenty-four  aged 
ewes  were  disposed  of,  and  we  now  have  no  ewes  of  more  than  three  years  of  age. 
The  wool  clip  from  the  entire  flock  in  the  spring  aggregated  855  pounds.

1926 MINISTER   OF  AGRICULTURE ll^S 

Horses. — The  horses  on  the  Demonstration  Farm,  up  to  the  present  time, 
have  been  kept  for  work  only,  there  has  been  no  breeding,  or  statistical  work 
carried  on,  in  connection  with  this  line.  There  are  at  present  six  horses  on  the 
Farm,  composed  of  one  registered  Clydesdale  mare,  one  Clydesdale  gelding, 
three  grade  Percheron  mares  and  one  Percheron  gelding.  It  has  been  found 
that  there  is  always  plenty  of  work  to  keep  these  horses  employed. 

Field  Husbandry 

Hay  Crops. — When  the  Farm  was  taken  over  by  the  present  superintendent, 
the  major  portion  of  the  land  was  seeded  down,  with  the  result  that  there  was 
more  hay  than  was  really  needed,  and  that  could  be  economically  handled.  It 
was  found  necessary,  therefore,  to  harvest  some  forty  acres  of  clover  for  clover 
seed.  Quite  a  large  acreage  was  devoted  to  pasture,  and  the  balance  was  used 
for  hay  and  silage.  A  twenty-acre  field  of  alfalfa  gave  quite  satisfactory  yields, 
there  being  two  cuttings  made.  The  second  cutting  was  somewhat  difficult  to 
save,  as  it  came  during  a  rainy  spell,  but  by  building  small  stacks,  during  periods 
of  good  weather,  it  was  all  made  in  good  shape. 

Grain  Crops. — Grain  was  grown  for  both  feeding  and  seeding  purposes. 
There  were  fifteen  acres  of  Asalman  oats  grown,  and  these  ga\e  a  very  satisfac- 
tory yield,  ripening  fairly  early,  and  the  grain  being  of  good  quality.  Eleven 
acres  of  No.  3  oats  were  also  grown  and  will  be  used  mostly  for  feeding  purposes. 
Twenty  acres  of  registered  No.  72  oats  were  sown,  with  the  idea  of  a  commercial 
production  of  seed  grain  in  mind.  Due  perhaps  to  the  unfavourable  weather 
conditions  this  crop  did  not  come  up  to  expectations,  but  there  was  a  fair  yield. 
Nine  acres  of  O.A.C.  No.  21  Barley  were  grown  and  an  excellent  sample  was 
produced.  It  was  particularly  bright  and  plump.  In  theway  of  peas,  land  which 
had  been  plowed  during  the  plowing  match,  the  previous  year,  amounting  to 
approximately  four  acres,  was  sown  to  the  "Potter"  variety  of  peas.  While 
these  did  not  germinate  100  per  cent,  they  yielded  a  good  sample  of  peas.  Besides 
this,  we  were  supplied  with  one  bushel  of  O.A.C.  No.  181  Peas,  by  the  Field 
Husbandry  Department,  Ontario  Agricultural  College.  These  were  sown  on 
specially  prepared  land,  with  the  idea  of  increasing  for  seed  purposes. 

Clover  and  Grass  Seed.- — As  mentioned  previously,  considerable  land  was 
devoted  to  the  growing  of  grass  seed,  in  view  of  the  rather  large  acreage  of  hay. 
As  the  crop  had  not  originally  been  sown  with  the  idea  of  seed  in  mind,  and  mixed 
seed  had  been  used,  the  product  of  these  fields  was  necessarily  mixed  and 
included  Alsike,  Red  Clover  and  Timothy  seed.  The  straw  w^as  rather  heavy, 
due  to  the  long  continued  wet  season,  and  the  set  of  seed  was  comparatively 
small,  but  it  w^as  considered,  that  even  though  small,  it  would  perhaps  pay 
better  than  to  harvest  the  crop  as  hay,  and  not  find  a  market  for  same.  We  have 
this  year  seeded  down  fifteen  acres  with  pure  Red  Clover,  with  the  intention  of 
using  it  for  the  production  of  seed. 

Canning  Factory  Crops. — A  new  line  of  work  was  started  on  the  Farm  this 
year,  in  the  way  of  growing  canning  peas,  for  the  local  factory.  The  Farm  had 
contracted  for  tw^enty  acres,  and  these  were  sown  on  successive  dates,  according 
to  variety.  Here  again,  the  wet  weather  during  June  had  a  very  serious  effect 
on  the  yield.  While  canning  peas  act  as  a  cash  crop  and  are  valuable  from  this 
point  of  view,  especially  during  a  good  season,  it  must  be  pointed  out,  that  under 
the  contract  system  the  peas  must  be  harvested  at  the  request  of  the  owner  of 


116 


REPORT  OF 


No.  21 


the  factory  even  though  some  more  important  work  should  be  carried  on,  at  the 
same  time.  In  the  case  of  the  Demonstration  Farm,  the  harvesting  of  the  pea 
crop  conflicted  rather  seriously  with  the  har\'esting  of  the  hay  crop. 

Roots. — About  two  acres  was  de\-oted  to  the  growing  of  roots  for  stock 
feeding  purposes,  and  a  fair  yield  was  harvested. 

Silage  Crops. — Four  acres  of  corn  were  planted,  but  germination  was  so  poor, 
on  account  of  the  cold  and  wet  spring,  that  the  land  was  eventually  plowed  again, 
and  instead  of  using  either  corn  or  sunflowers,  one  silo  was  filled  entirely  with 
common  Red  Clover.  This  was  cut  rather  finely,  and  well  tramped,  with  the 
addition  of  a  moderate  amount  of  water.  The  kind  of  silage,  which  will  be 
produced,  Avill  remain  to  be  seen,  when  the  silo  is  opened,  but  it  seemed  to  cure 
in  a  characteristic  way  for  silage.  Into  the  other  silo,  was  put  all  the  pea  straw 
which  could  be  procured  from  the  canning  factory,  and  the  balance  was  filled 
with  oats  and  peas  cut  green.  The  straw  from  the  canning  factory  was  not  run 
through  the  cutting  box,  as  in  the  threshing  process  it  was  cut  up  considerably. 
It  Was  felt,  that  in  a  country  where  clover  can  be  grown  with  such  great  results, 
and  where  corn  is  a  doubtful  crop,  that  if  the  clover  will  make  a  satisfactory 
silage,  it  should  be  used.  Therefore,  we  shall  look  with  interest,  to  the  results 
of  the  above  trial. 

Experimental  Work 

The  experimental  work  on  the  Demonstration  Farm  was  cut  down  to  the 
minimum  this  year,  and  variety  tests  in  cereals  were  the  largest  features  carried 
on.  Besides  tshis,  there  were  a  few  plots  of  forage  crops  which  had  been  seeded 
during  1924,  and  w^hich  were  harvested  this  year. 

The  date  of  seeding  was  approximately  the  same  as  during  1924,  and  about 
seven  days  earlier  than  in  1923.  The  soil  was  in  good  tilth  at  this  time,  having 
been  plowed  the  previous  fall  out  of  stubble.  It  was  of  a  rich  black  loam — open 
and  friable.  The  plots  had  nicely  germinated  when  we  had  an  extremely  hot 
spell  during  the  first  and  second  week  of  June,  this  was  followed  by  a  very  heavy 
rainfall,  there  being  3.13  inches  during  the  first  ten  days.  July  also  was  quite 
wet,  but  the  improved  weather  conditions  during  August,  did  much  to  assist  in 
the  maturing  of  the  different  crops. 

Spring  Wheat. — During  the  season  of  1925,  eight  plots  of  spring  wheat  were 
grown,  these  included  three  strains  of  Marquis  and  one  plot  of  Common  Emmer. 
The  date  of  seeding  was  May  15th,  and  the  results  obtained  were  as  follows:—

iir 


It  will  be  noticed  that  the  Garnet  and  Marquis  varieties  both  gave  the  same 
yield,  but  the  Garnet  wheat  matured  so  very  much  earlier  (fourteen  days)  and 
besides,  the  sample  was  superior  in  quality  to  the  Marquis.  It  would  seem  to 
be  a  very  promising  variety  for  this  country.  Further  tests,  however,  must  be 
made  before  any  definite  conclusions  can  be  drawn.  The  only  varieties  to 
exceed  Garnet  or  Marquis  in  yield  were  O.A.C.  No.  85,  and  WWd  Goose;  neither 
one  of  these  can  equal  Marquis  or  Garnet  in  quality,  and  both  require  a  longer 
period  to  mature. 

Oats. — Six  (6)  varieties  of  white  oats  and  one  (1)  variety  of  black  oats 
were  tested  at  this  Station,  in  1925.  The  date  of  seeding  was  May  16th.  The 
results  obtained  were  as  follows: —

None  of  the  yields  of  oats  were  high  this  year,  due  probably  to  the  unfavour- 
able weather  conditions.  It  is  worthy  of  note,  that  the  Abundance  and  O.A.C. 
No.  3  oats  matured  earlier  than  any  others,  and  at  the  same  time  were  the  highest 
in  yield  of  grain. 

Barley. — Seven  (7)  varieties  of  six-rowed  barley  and  one  (1)  variety  of  two- 
rowed  barley  were  tested  this  year.  They  were  sown  on  May  16th,  at  the  rate 
of  23-^2  bushels  per  acre,  on  good  clay  loam  soil.  The  results  obtained  were  as

The  O.A.C.  No.  21  variety  has  again  topped  the  list  in  yield,  and  has 
proven  itself  to  be  fairly  early,  and  to  give  good  results  under  field  conditions. 
The  hulless  varieties  were  lower  in  yield,  although  they  ripened  some  days  earlier. 
The  two-rowed  varieties  did  not  come  up  to  expectation  in  yield  this  year. 

Field  Peas. — Ten  (10)  varieties  of  field  peas  were  tested  this  year.  The 
seeding  was  done  on  May  16th,  and  the  rate  varied  from  three  to  three  and  a  half 
bushels  per  acre,  according  to  size  of  grain.     The  results  obtained  were  as  follows:

The  yield  of  peas  this  year  was  only  average,  due  in  part  to  the  long 
continued  wet  spells.  The  Mackay  variety  has  topped  the  list  in  point  of  yield, 
but  was  closely  followed  by  the  Canadian  Beauty.  The  Temiskaming,  a  variety 
originated  locally,  has  tied  for  third  place  with  the  Early  Britain  pea. 

In  connection  with  the  growing  of  peas  in  Northern  Ontario,  it  was  found 
difficult  to  get  peas  to  boil  down  suitable  for  soup  purposes.  With  this  in  mind 
a  duplicate  set  of  the  above  varieties  was  grown  on  hard  white  clay,  to  see  if  the 
type  of  soil  had  any  elTect  on  this  property.  The  results  of  this  test  are  not 
sufficiently  complete  to  be  reported  at  this  time. 

Fall  Wheat. — Seven  (7)  varieties  of  fall  wheat  were  grown  during  the  season 
of  1924-25.  The  plots  were  sown  on  August  23rd,  1924,  at  the  rate  of  two 
bushels  per  acre,  and  they  were  harvested  on  the  15th  of  August,  1925.  The 
yields  were  as  follows: —

It  would  appear  that  the  Improved  Dawson's  Golden  Chaff,  was  superior 
to  the  O.A.C.  No.  104.  It  was  found  to  have  a  much  stronger  straw,  as  all  the 
other  varieties  lodged  quite  badly. 

Forage  Crops. — -The  experiment  in  forage  crops  included  dates  of  seeding, 
fertilizer  and  variety  tests. 

Dates  of  Seeding  with  Alfalfa. — The  purpose  of  this  experiment  was  to  dis- 
cover if  possible,  the  best  date  on  which  to  sow  alfalfa,  without  a  nurse  crop. 
The  first  seeding  was  made  on  May  23rd,  and  a  seeding  was  made  approximately 
every  two  weeks  thereafter  until  September  the  15th. 

The  results  obtained  were  as  follows: —

It  will  be  noticed  that  the  fourth  seeding  has  given  the  largest  yield  per 
acre,  while  the  second  and  third  seedings  are  heavier  in  yield  than  either  the 
first,  fifth,  sixth  or  seventh.  The  last  two  seedings  were  not  harvested,  as  the 
plots  were  plowed  up  in  the  spring.  No  plants  came  through  the  winter  in  the 
ninth  seeding,  and  only  about  5  per  cent,  in  the  eighth  seeding. 

Dates  of  Seeding  of  Permanent  Hay. — The  purpose  of  this  experiment  was 
similar  to  that  of  alfalfa,  and  exactly  the  same  dates  of  seeding  were  used.  The 
results  obtained  were  as  follows: —

REPORT  OF 


No.  21 


The  most  notable  feature  in  this  experiment  was  the  fact  that  the  later  the 
date  of  seeding,  the  smaller  the  percentage  of  clover  in  evidence,  and  the  larger 
the  percentage  of  Timothy.  The  seventh  and  eighth  seedings  were  practically 
pure  Timothy,  hence  the  very  heavy  yield.  From  the  mixed  hay  point  of  view, 
the  second  seeding  gave  the  largest  yield,  with  the  third  following  the  second. 

Fertilizer  with  Clover. — In  this  experiment,  high-grade  fertilizer,  low  grade 
fertilizer  and  manure  were  tested  on  red  clover,  with  a  check  plot,  which  received 
no  special  attention.     The  results  were  as  follows: —

Peculiar  though  it  may  seem,  the  plot  receiving  the  high-grade  fertilizer 
gave  the  lowest  yield  by  almost  600  pounds,  the  other  yields  were  practically 
identical,  and  it  would  seem  that  for  the  first  year,  at  any  rate,  the  application 
of  fertilizers  had  little  value  in  the  growing  of  red  clover.  It  must  be  kept  in 
mind,  that  the  soil  on  which  this  experiment  was  carried  out  was  in  first-class 
condition  from  the  point  of  view  of  fertility. 

Variety  Tests  With  Alfalfa. — Grimm  alfalfa  and  Ontario  variegated  alfalfa 
were  grown  side  by  side  with  the  following  results:— -

It  will  be  seen  that  the  Grimm  variety  gave  a  little  larger  yield  than  the 
Ontario  variegated. 

Vegetables. — No  work  Avith  varieties  of  annual  vegetables  was  carried  on 
this  year.  We  did,  however,  grow  a  small  quantity  of  spinach  for  seed.  This 
was  of  "Virginia  Savoy  Blight  Resistent,"  variety,  and  was  grown  at  the  request 
of  Professor  A.  H.  MacLennan,  in  an  endeavour  to  discover  whether  we  could 
successfully  grow  this  kind  of  seed  in  the  district.  The  crop  was  handled  much 
like  an  ordinary  root  crop,  and  the  seed,  after  harvesting  and  being  carefully 
dried,  was  threshed  in  the  rough,  and  forwarded  to  the  Department  of  Horti- 
culture, to  be  cleaned  by  them  with  special  equipment.  The  results  obtained 
are  as  follows:

Potatoes. — Three  varieties  of  potatoes  were  grown  in  1925.  They  were 
planted  in  rows  thirty  inches  apart,  and  ten  to  twelve  inches  apart  in  the  row. 
In  addition  to  the  three  varieties,  another  plot  was  planted  of  the  Irish  Cobbler 
variety,  using  only  one  eye  per  hill.    The  results  obtained  are  as  follows: —

Groiving  Beets  for  Sugar. — A  new  line  of  work  was  started  this  year,  in  the 

way  of  growing  beets  for  sugar  production.    Three  small  samples  of  sugar  beets 

of  the  Wanzelben  variety  were  secured  from  a  seed  firm  in  Toronto  and  grown 

in  separate  plots  of  one  one-hundredth  (1/100)  acre  in  size.    The  gross  yield  per 

plot  was  as  follows:— 

Strain  No.  1,  245  pounds  or  12.25  tons  per  acre. 
Strain  No.  2,  230  pounds  or  11.50  tons  per  acre. 
Strain  No.  3,  132  pounds  or    6.10  tons  per  acre. 

From  the  product  of  these  plots  there  was  picked  four  (4)  samples  of  beets, 
varying  in  size  from  rather  small  to  large  and  more  or  less  rough,  each  sample 
consisting  of  four  beets.  These  were  forwarded  to  the  testing  laboratory  of  the 
Dominion  Sugar  Company,  at  Chatham,  and  the  report  given  by  them  is  as 
follows: —

test  plots  grown  by  Mr.  W.  G.  Ni.xon,  on  the  above-mentioned  Farm,  in  attempt  to  procure  some 
data  as  to  the  success  of  beet  growing  in  that  district.

REPORT  OF 


No.  21 


In  commenting  on  these  samples  from  the  point  of  view  of  seed  production, 
Mr.  E.  S.  Manning  says  in  part,  as  follows: — 

"As  regards  the  best  type  for  seed  propagation  No.  3  and  Xo.  4  are  absolutely  too  small  for 
such  purpose,  while  \'ou  have  a  very  good  sugar  content  and  a  ver\'  good  purity,  you  are  getting 
too  far  away  from  size  to  procure  a  good  tonnage  per  acre.  This,  of  course,  is  one  of  the  important 
factors  in  sugar  beet  crop.  No.  2  sample  does  not  show  a  high  enough  purity  of  sugar  content 
for  seed  production.  This  may  have  been  due  to  immaturity.  No.  1,  while  a  little  off  in  shape, 
is  the  best  sample  for  to  commence  seed  work  on.  All  these  beets  in  this  sample  were  a  very 
good  type,  excepting  one  was  too  small  and  had  more  than  one  main  root.  You  have  in  this 
sample,  what  might  be  considered  average  size  and  a  purity  which  would  still  give  us  the  impression 
that  the  beets  were  not  yet  entirely  complete  in  maturity,  and  which  would  still  increase  the 
sugar  content." 

Further  tests  will  be  necessary  before  any  definite  statements  can  be  made 
in  regard  to  this  line  of  work.  It  does,  however,  open  up  a  new  field  in  the  way 
of  the  production  of  a  cash  crop  in  Northern  Ontario. 

Horticulture. — Not  a  great  deal  of  work  was  done  in  this  line,  during  the 
season  of  1925,  due  to  the  fact  that  the  management  of  the  farm  was  changed 
just  at  the  opening  of  the  season,  and  therefore,  no  plans  had  been  made. 

Orchard. — The  orchard  on  the  farm  was  planted  during  the  spring  of  1922, 
and  consists  of  the  more  hardy  varieties  of  apples,  plums  and  crabs.  The 
plantation  includes: — 

21  varieties  of  apples. 

3  varieties  of  crabapples. 

4  varieties  of  plums. 

These  trees  have  shown  a  fair  amount  of  growth,  but  gave  no  sign  of  bloom 
during  the  year.  The  trees  have  been  standing  the  winter  fairly  well,  except  for 
an  occasional  one  being  injured  by  mice. 

Small  Fruits. — Both  red  and  black  currants  as  well  as  two  varieties  of  rasp- 
berries and  seven  varieties  of  strawberries  were  set  out  during  1922.  All  of  these 
have  made  satisfactory  growth,  but  with  the  exception  of  the  strawberries,  the 
yield  has  been  negligible.  The  strawberry  plants  have  been  well  looked  after  in 
the  matter  of  weeding,  cultivation  and  straw  mulching  during  the  winter,  and 
the  results  would  indicate  that  it  pays  to  do  so.  The  yields  in  the  following  are 
given  from  100  feet  of  row.

Buildings  and  General  Conditions. — During  the  year,  the  barn  has  been  more 
or  less  completed  as  far  as  possible.  There  still  remains  some  work  to  be  done 
in  the  way  of  putting  a  concrete  floor  in  the  horse  stable,  and  a  few^  general 


1926 MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE 123 

improvements.  During  the  past  summer,  a  herdsman's  house  has  been  built, 
using  considerable  of  the  material  which  was  on  the  farm.  There  has  also  been 
erected  a  new  implement  shed,  which  was  verv'  badly  needed,  and  a  milk  house 
is  in  the  course  of  erection  at  the  present  time. 

Roadways. — The  lanes  in  the  farm  have  been  kept  in  repair  and  roadsides 
cultivated.  It  is  expected  that  in  the  near  future,  a  definite  plan  of  the  farm 
and  buildings  will  be  executed,  and  further  roadways  laid  out,  so  that  this  part 
of  the  work  may  be  completed  as  soon  as  possible. 

Fencing. — The  farm  is  now  well  fenced  and  the  only  work  done  along  this 
line  during  the  year  was  the  erection  of  temporary  fences  for  pasture  purposes. 

General  Improvements. — A  great  deal  of  work  has  been  done  in  the  way  of 
clearing  up  the  yards  around  the  buildings,  and  generally  keeping  things  in 
repair.  Fields  have  been  well  tilled  and  they  have  all  been  gone  over  well  and 
the  roots  picked  off  again,  making  as  complete  a  job  as  possible. 

Extension  and  Publicity.— There  has  been  an  increase  in  the  interest  in  the 
work  of  the  farm  during  the  last  year.  Since  the  erection  of  the  barn  and  stable 
there  have  been  quite  a  number  of  farmers  coming  in  from  time  to  time  to  look 
over  the  stock  and  equipment.  There  is  thus  established  a  common  ground  on 
which  we  are  better  enabled  to  meet  the  farmer  and  discuss  with  him  the  problems 
most  vital  in  the  better  handling  of  his  stock  and  general  farming. 

As  previously  mentioned,  the  farm  has  served  the  purpose  as  a  centre  of 
distribution  for  good  live  stock.  This  work  will  be  continued  as  part  of  the  farm 
programme.  The  correspondence  continues  to  increase  from  year  to  year.  The 
superintendent  and  his  assistant  have  helped  wherever  possible  in  meetings, 
fall  fair  work,  district  ploughing  match,  etc. 

Summary. — Agricultural  conditions  throughout  Timiskaming  district  this 
year  (1925)  compare  very  favourably  with  other  years.  All  grain  and  forage 
crops  gave  a  splendid  yield.  Grain  in  many  sections  of  the  district  being  superior 
in  quality  to  that  of  last  year.  Some  farmers  reported  to  the  office  a  yield 
(estimated)  of  fifty  bushels  of  Marquis  spring  wheat  per  acre. 

Oats,  peas  and  barley  all  gave  an  average  yield  although  these  crops  suffered 
more  from  unfavourable  weather  conditions  than  did  spring  wheat.  Roots  and 
vegetables  yielded  below  an  average  for  the  district  because  of  tardiness  in  growth 
early  in  the  season,  and  a  cold  spell  of  weather  following  planting.  Test  yields 
on  the  farm,  however,  are  noted  as  being  very  satisfactory;  the  maximum  yield 
being  298.33  bushels  (Irish  Cobblers),  an  average  of  all  the  varieties  equalling 
257.22.    I  believe  however,  this  Is  above  the  average  for  the  district  this  year. 

A  new  feature  in  Timiskaming  agriculture  this  year  has  been  the  production 
of  canning  peas.  The  season  was  very  favourable  for  the  production  of  peas  on 
high  or  rolling  land,  but  less  so  on  flat  land.  Consequently,  some  of  the  fields 
seeded  with  canning  peas  did  not  produce  a  very  satisfactory-  crop.  This  is  more 
or  less  true  of  the  farm  crop  because  it  was  grown  on  flat  land.  The  factory 
reported  satisfaction  with  results  obtained,  and  I  believe  the  management  is 
more  or  less  optimistic  for  the  future.  A  price  of  S40  per  ton  (threshed  green 
peas),  was  paid  the  producers. 

An  increased  interest  in  the  production  of  northern  grown  seed  is  noted 
with  interest  amongst  the  farmers  of  the  district.  This  year  the  agricultural 
society  conducted  a  combined  field  and  threshed  grain  competition  in  the  produc- 


124 REPORT  OF  MINISTER   OF   AGRICULTURE  No.  21 

tion  of  barley.  Barley,  being  an  early  maturing  crop,  would  seem  to  be  well 
adapted  to  Northern  Ontario  conditions.  We  anticipate  very  interesting  results 
in  the  production  of  this  crop  in  the  future. 

The  production  of  clover  and  grass  seed  is  important  in  the  district,  but 
altogether  too  much'  mi.xed  seed  is  being  grown  at  the  present  time.  The  farm 
this  year  seeded  fifteen  acres  to  red  clover  for  seed  purposes,  and  we  look  forward 
to  interesting  results  next  year. 

Other  new  features  in  connection  with  the  operation  of  the  farm  has  been 
to  test  out  red  clover  for  ensilage,  to  seed  fifteen  acres  of  imported  Dawsons' 
golden  chafT  fall  wheat,  to  test  out  sugar  beets  and  produce  registered  seed  oats. 
We  are  using  the  clover  ensilage  and  it  apparently  is  going  to  be  satisfactory. 
We  must,  of  course,  have  an  analysis  made  to  find  out  its  actual  feed  value.  The 
stock  seem  to  relish  it  very  well,  but  as  we  have  only  been  feeding  it  for  a  week 
or  ten  days,  we  cannot  as  yet  say  much  about  it.  We  believe,  however,  it  opens 
up  a  problem  worthy  of  consideration  in  the  production  of  an  ensilage  crop  for 
Northern  Ontario. 

Results  obtained  from  a  few  plots  of  fall  wheat  last  year  indicated  the 
advisability  of  field  demonstration  and  consequently  we  seeded  fifteen  acres  on 
August  31  of  this  year.  This  crop  went  into  winter  quarters  in  very  satisfactory- 
condition.  By  way  of  testing  out  the  merits  of  northern  grown  seed  grain,  we 
attempted  the  production  of  twenty  odd  acres  of  registered  O.A.C.  No.  72  oats 
this  year.  The  quality  of  the  grain  is  good  but  yield  was  reduced,  partly  because 
of  the  fact  that  a  percentage  of  the  crop  was  drow^ned  during  the  wet  spring 
season. 

The  table  in  the  report  giving  results  in  connection  with  the  test  of  sugar 
beets  is  worthy  of  note  and  would  seem  to  indicate  further  work  in  connection 
with  this  particular  line.  Success  in  the  production  of  sugar  beets,  I  believe, 
depends  largely  on  yield  and  sugar  content.  We  anticipate  even  more  satisfactory 
results  next  year.

SPRING  SOWING  AND  VEGETATION 

According  to  the  May  Crop  Bulletin,  work  on  the  land  and  spring  seeding 
began  earlier  than  usual,  but  subsequent  cool  dry  weather  held  up  vegetation. 
"Cattle  were  not  put  on  the  grass  any  earlier  than  usual,  and  the  bite  was  not 
so  generous  as  was  expected.  The  actual  growing  season  as  correspondents 
reported  was  variously  set  at  from  a  week  earlier  to  a  week  later  than  usual,  as 
a  result  of  the  early  opening  of  the  spring  with  delayed  growth  on  account  of 
the  very  dry  and  cool  period  following. 

"Spring  sowing  was  on  the  whole  much  earlier  than  usual.  Cultivation 
and  seeding  began  early  in  April  and  was  completed  in  most  localities  by  the 
early  part  of  May.  The  soil  was  in  excellent  tilth  for  the  sowing  of  grain  and 
other  crops,  but  the  dry  and  prolonged  cool  weather  in  some  instances  prevented 
the  excellent  catches  expected.  Timely  rains,  it  was  thought,  would  soon  bring 
the  season's  promise  up  to  the  average. 

"Owing  to  the  great  injury  from  the  European  Corn-borer  last  year,  less 
corn  will  be  planted  in  the  Lake  Erie  district  and  in  some  other  counties  of  the 
Province.  On  the  other  hand,  there  will  be  increased  acreages  of  oats,  barley, 
peas,  beans,  sugar  beets,  alfalfa,  mixed  grains  and  other  crops. 

"Some  correspondents  fear  that  grasses  and  legumes  sown  with  mixed 
grains  will  be  thinner  than  usual  this  spring,  owing  to  the  dry  and  cold  spring. 

"Early  tomatoes  and  other  tender  plants  set  out  in  the  fields  have  suffered 
considerably  from  night  frosts. 

"More  spring  crops  would  have  been  put  in  were  labour  conditions  more 
satisfactory  for  the  farmer." 


THE  GRAIN  CROPS 

Fall  Wheat. — Reports  made  in  December  concerning  the  newly-planted 
wheat  were  on  the  whole  favourable.  The  acreage  was  given  as  fully  up  to  the 
more  recent  average.  The  seed-bed  was  a  fairly  good  one  for  most  of  the  crop, 
but  that  got  in  late  found  the  soil  rather  dry  for  a  good  start.  The  crop  entered 
the  winter  in  fair  general  condition,  and  was  well  protected  by  snow  for  practically 
the  entire  season.    The  snow  went  off  nicely  in  March,  the  fields  emerging  with 


8 REPORT  OF  THE No.  22 

a  most  encouraging  appearance;  but  frosty  nights,  with  dry,  sunny  days,  and 
sometimes  windy  weather,  have  been  somewhat  trying  to  the  crop,  and  when 
correspondents  reported  in  April  good  warm  rains  were  much  needed.  Heaving 
had  not  been  as  bad  as  usual,  and  little  or  no  mention  was  made  of  injury  from 
insects. 

The  May  Bulletin  said:  "Fall  wheat  came  through  the  winter  in  good 
general  condition,  and  suffered  only  slightly  from  spring  heaving.  Comparatively 
little  of  the  crop  has  been  plowed  up,  the  few  patchy  spots  as  a  rule  being  drilled 
in  with  spring  grains,  usually  barley.  The  chief  drawback  to  its  growth  has  been 
the  unusually  dry  weather  prevailing  the  greater  part  of  the  spring,  and  the 
cool  and  sometimes  frosty  nights  during  May,  which  more  or  less  prevented 
the  usual  extent  of  spring  growth.  Taken  all  together,  however,  the  prospects 
are  favourable  for  practically  an  average  yield,  should  nothing  occur  later  to 
injure  the  crop.  Early  sown  fields  look  the  best.  Slight  mention  only  has  been 
made  of  injury  of  the  crop  by  the  Hessian  fly,  wire-worm,  or  other  injurious 
insects.    A  generous  rain  on  the  16th  of  May  was  very  helpful  to  the  fields." 

The  following  was  contained  in  the  August  bulletin:  "While  fall  wheat 
gave  excellent  promise  when  the  snow  lifted,  dry  weather  in  April  and  May, 
and  the  cool  and  sometimes  frosty  nights  of  the  latter  month,  helped  to  check 
growth.  The  fields  soon  recovered  with  timely  rains  and  sunshine,  and  the  yield 
per  acre  is  most  satisfactory,  while  the  grain  is  of  full  weight  and  of  good  general 
quality.  The  straw  as  a  rule  was  short  in  length,  but  comparatively  free  from 
rust  or  smut.  There  were  a  few  complaints  of  shelling  in  the  fields.  A  portion 
of  the  crop  was  caught  by  rain  when  being  harvested,  and  some  sprouting  in 
the  field  was  reported,  but  the  bulk  of  it  was  got  in  under  favourable  circum- 
stances. Threshing  was  going  on  as  correspondents  wrote,  on  the  whole  with 
satisfactory  results.  Odd  mention  only  was  made  of  injury  from  insects.  Cutting 
extended  from  July  6th  to  the  25th." 

November  returns  were  to  the  following  effect:  "Reports  concerning  the 
yield  and  quality  of  fall  wheat  are  on  the  whole  favourable.  Some  of  the  late 
cut  crop  was  affected  by  rain  and  sprouted,  but  the  grain  as  a  whole  was  a 
splendid  sample,  and  well  up  to  or  over  weight  per  bushel.  Odd  complaints  of 
smut  were  made.    The  straw  was,  generally  speaking,  short  but  clean." 

The  New  Fall  Wheat. — "The  acreage,"  said  the  December  bulletin, 
"will  be  slightly  larger  than  that  of  last  year,  as  prices  have  been  relatively  good. 
On  account  of  the  borer  more  corn  land  is  being  given  to  wheat  in  the  Lake 
Erie  counties.  Owing  to  the  comparatively  late  harvest  and  rainy  weather, 
sowing  was  considerably  delayed  in  most  cases  and  many  of  the  young  wheat 
fields  got  so  late  a  start  that  the  crop  has  a  much  shorter  stand  than  usual. 
Cold  October  weather  also  has  kept  growth  back,  and  some  fear  that  the  new 
wheat  will  enter  the  winter  with  too  small  a  top.  But  for  the  rain  delaying  the 
fall  plowing,  more  wheat  still  would  have  been  sown.  More  of  the  crop  than  usual 
was  sown  in  October.  Very  little  of  Hessian  fly  was  reported.  Dawson's  Golden 
Chaff  is  the  variety  most  largely  grown,  but  O.A.C.  No.  104  is  rapidly  catching 
up  to  it." 

Spring  Wheat. — The  August  bulletin  said  of  this  crop:  "This  crop  has  a 
relatively  small  acreage,  but  did  well  in  yield  per  acre,  and  the  sample  is  good. 
The  straw  was  somewhat  short  in  stand,  but  only  a  little  rust  has  been  complained 
of.  Harvesting  began  about  the  beginning  of  August,  and  some  fields  were  being 
cut  when  correspondents  reported." 


1926  STATISTICS  BRANCH 


The  Decernber  summing  up  of  this  crop  was  that  the  average  yield  was 
good  and  the  quality  satisfactory.  Like  the  other  cereals  the  straw  was  short, 
but  as  a  rule  clean. 

Oats. — The  August  bulletin  remarked:  "The  acreage  of  oats  is  the  largest 
given  to  any  of  the  grains.  The  growth  was  somewhat  retarded  by  the  dry 
weather  in  June,  resulting  in  shortening  of  the  straw,  although  its  general  quality 
was  not  affected.  There  was  less  stooling  than  usual.  The  yields  reported  vary 
from  thirty  to  seventy  bushels  per  acre,  and  the  average  is  high.  Cutting 
began  about  the  beginning  of  August,  but  harvesting  has  been  delayed  by  showery 
weather,  and  there  has  been  some  sprouting  in  the  shock." 

"The  yield  of  oats  has  been  one  of  the  finest  on  record,  with  quality  to 
match,"  said  the  December  bulletin.  "A  portion  of  the  crop  was  caught  by  rain 
in  the  field  after  being  cut,  and  there  was  some  loss  by  sprouting.  Odd  complaints 
were  received  of  injury  from  the  wire-worm." 

Barley.— This  crop,  according  to  August  reports,  had  given  a  good  average 
yield  of  plump  grain,  but  the  straw,  as  in  the  case  of  all  the  cereals,  was  shorter 
in  length  than  usual,  although  generally  of  good  quality.  The  weather  at 
harvesting  was  somewhat  showery,  but  most  of  the  crop  was  got  in  in  fair 
condition. 

The  December  bulletin  said:  "This  grain  also  yielded  considerably  above 
the  average,  and  the  general  quality  is  well  up  to  the  standard.  The  straw,  as 
in  the  case  of  the  other  grains,  was  short  but  clean. 

Rye. — Much  of  the  acreage  of  rye  is  grown  for  cutting  green  or  plowing 
under.  That  raised  for  grain  this  season  did  well,  the  yield  being  a  good  average 
one,  and  the  quality  of  the  grain  proving  satisfactory,  according  to  August 
returns.  Fall  reports  were  summarized  thus:  Where  grown  for  grain,  rye  did 
well,  both  as  regards  to  yield  and  quality. 

Peas. — The  August  bulletin  said:  "Much  of  the  pea  crop  now  grown  in 
Ontario  is  raised  for  the  canneries.  The  fields  suffered  somewhat  from  the  hot 
sun  during  blossoming,  but  more  favourable  weather  later  on  brought  the  crop 
along  nicely,  and  the  yield  per  acre  will  be  well  over  the  average.  Some  injury 
from  aphis  was  reported.  Pulling  began  about  the  10th  of  August,  and  is  still 
proceeding  in  some  localities." 

This  crop  did  not  turn  out  as  well  as  was  expected  early  in  the  season. 
Heavy  rains  at  harvesting  did  considerable  injury,  resulting  in  a  good  deal  of 
mildew.  There  was  some  complaint  of  weevil,  but  not  to  a  serious  extent. 
Fields  did  best  in  the  eastern  half  of  the  Province.  Much  of  the  pea  crop  is 
grown  for  the  canneries. 

Buckwheat. — This  being  one  of  the  latest  grain  crops,  it  was  caught 
by  rain  and  frost  at  harvesting,  and  suffered  from  both.  The  yield  of  grain  was 
fair,  when  ready  for  cutting,  but  much  of  it  was  spoilt  for  marketing.  In  a 
number  of  fields  the  crop  was  yet  out  in  stooks  as  correspondents  wrote  in 
November. 

Beans. — Beans  gave  promise  of  good  yield,  but  many  fields  were  badly 
affected  later  by  rain  and  frost,  which  rendered  some  of  the  product  more  or 
less  unmarketable.  Some  correspondents,  however,  speak  quite  favourably  of 
the  crop,  both  as  to  net  yield  and  quality. 


K) REPORT  OF  THE No.  22 

Corn. — The  August  bulletin  stated:  "The  main  drawback  to  this  crop  has 
been  the  injury  done  to  the  fields,  in  the  cob  raising  Lake  Erie  counties,  mainly 
by  the  corn-borer.  Corn  for  the  silo  did  not  get  an  early  start,  but  midsummer 
rains  have  pushed  the  fields  along  in  a  surprising  way,  and  barring  early  frosts 
there  should  be  a  full  supply  of  ensilage  on  hand  for  winter  feed." 

November  returns  were  to  the  following  effect:  "Much  injury  was  done  to 
corn  by  the  borer  in  the  Lake  Erie  counties,  where  the  crop  is  raised  mainly 
for  cobbing.  Where  grown  for  the  silo,  it  was  a  good  crop  so  far  as  yield  was 
concerned,  although  badly  knocked  down  by  late  storms  and  hard  to  harvest  in 
some  quarters.  On  the  whole  the  crop  matured  well,  although  frost  came  earlier 
than  usual." 


HAY  AND  CLOVER 

Clover. — "The  reports  regarding  clover  are  on  the  whole  favourable," 
said  the  April  bulletin.  "There  has  not  been  much  heaving,  but  spring  growth 
has  been  delayed  by  the  dry  weather  which  has  so  far  prevailed.  Rain  was  much 
needed  for  this  and  other  pasture  crops  as  correspondents  reported." 

The  May  reports  were  thus  summarized:  "Clover,  like  fall  wheat,  wintered 
well,  and  was  not  much  affected  by  heaving  in  the  spring.  The  present  condition 
of  the  crop  is  variously  described  as  from  fair  to  splendid,  although  the  fields 
have  been  relatively  backward  in  growth  owing  to  the  cool  and  dry  weather 
prevailing  since  the  middle  of  April.  Some  low-lying  fields  have  been  affected 
by  night  frosts  occurring  in  May,  but  not  seriously.  Newly  seeded  fields  look 
best.     Timely  rains  would  soon  bring  the  fields  up  to  the  normal  condition." 

The  August  bulletin  said :  "Reports  concerning  hay  and  clover  vary  greatly. 
Generally  speaking  the  usual  experience  has  been  reversed,  the  eastern  half  of 
the  Province  having  experienced  a  better  general  yield  than  the  western  districts, 
where  this  year  the  average  returns  are  unusually  low.  Late  spring  frosts  are 
given  by  some  correspondents  as  the  chief  reason  of  the  shrinkage.  The  weather 
at  harvesting  was  rather  catchy,  but  most  of  the  crop  was  got  under  cover  in 
good  condition.  Cutting  began  early  in  July,  and  extended  over  the  month. 
Several  correspondents  state  that  the  second  cut  of  hay  w^ill  be  more  satisfactory 
than  the  first." 

Clover  Seed.— Continued  wet  weather  at  the  time  of  the  second  cutting 
of  red  clover  told  against  the  production  of  seed,  as  much  of  the  crop  had  to  lie 
too  long  in  the  field  after  cutting  and  was  seriously  affected  by  the  rain.  A  few 
good  returns  of  seed  are  reported,  but  the  general  yield  is  relatively  small. 

Alfalfa. — May  reports  were:  "Alfalfa  also  wintered  well,  and  in  most 
places  where  grown  has  a  prosperous  appearance.  This  crop  is  rapidly  growing 
in  favour,  and  is  increasing  in  acreage,  and  so  far  this  season  has  done  better 
than  any  of  the  other  legumes  or  grasses." 

The  crop  was  thus  referred  to  in  the  August  bulletin:  "Alfalfa  has  done 
relatively  better  for  hay  than  timothy  or  clover,  and  the  second  cutting  also 
has  given  good  satisfaction." 

According  to  the  December  bulletin  alfalfa  is  steadily  growing  in  favour 
both  as  a  fodder  crop  and  for  seed.  Yields  of  seed  per  acre  ran  from  five  to  ten 
bushels,  averaging  about  eight.    Alfalfa  hay  was  in  good  demand  at  fair  prices. 


1926 STATISTICS  BRANCH 1_1 

Alsike. — Less  alsike  is  being  grown  for  seed.  Opinion  is  divided  as  to  the 
average  yield  per  acre,  the  returns  reported  ranging  from  two  to  five  bushels 
per  acre. 

Sweet  Clover. — The  May  bulletin  said:  "Sweet  clover  has  a  number  of 
strong  advocates  as  a  fodder  crop,  although  with  others  it  is  losing  favour.  With 
some  growers  its  best  use  is  for  plowing  under.  It  is  a  thrifty  grower  as  a  rule, 
and  this  season  has  been  no  exception." 

The  following  appeared  in  the  December  bulletin:  "This  crop  is  decreasing 
in  popularity  as  a  fodder  crop,  and  is  now  mainly  grown  for  plowing  under. 
Raising  for  seed  is  not  common,  but  where  grown  for  this  purpose  the  results 
were  encouraging  this  season." 


POTATOES  AND  FIELD  ROOTS- 

Potatoes. — The  August  reports  were  thus  summarized:  "The  acreage  of 
potatoes  is  smaller  than  that  of  the  preceding  year,  but  the  yield  per  acre  is 
expected  to  be  a  good  average.  The  crop  suffered  from  drouth  early  in  the 
season,  but  the  rains  later  on  helped  the  fields  to  pick  up  well,  although  in  some 
cases  causing  a  little  rot.  Blight  also  has  been  complained  of  in  a  few  counties, 
but  taken  all  together  the  general  quality  of  the  tubers  may  be  described  as 
promising." 

The  December  bulletin  said:  "Reports  regarding  potatoes  vary  greatly, 
some  speaking  favourably  of  the  crop,  both  as  to  yield  and  quality,  while  others 
refer  to  a  considerably  low^er  yield,  tubers  smaller  in  size  than  usual,  and  injury 
from  rot  since  storing.  There  is  also  mention  of  frost  more  or  less  affecting 
some  fields  at  the  time  of  harvest.  Taken  all  together,  the  potato  crop  is  a  much 
less  satisfactory  one  than  ordinarily,  the  average  yield  being  very^  low.  The 
prospective  prices,  however,  are  more  encouraging." 

Turnips. — "Like  all  the  other  roots  turnips  received  a  poor  start  owing  to 
drouth,  but  later  on  have  done  well  with  timely  rains,"  ran  the  August  bulletin. 
"Some  injury  is  reported  from  the  fly  but  the  general  prospect  is  favourable." 

November  reports  were  not  encouraging:  "Some  correspondents  refer  to 
this, crop  as  being  a  good  one,  but  the  reports  state  that  pulling  has  been  greatly 
delayed  by  rains  and  frosty  weather,  and  that  many  turnips  were  still  in  the 
ground.    It  is  also  stated  that  these  roots  are  smaller  in  size  than  usual." 

Mangels. — August  reports  concerning  mangels  were  on  the  whole  favour- 
able. 

The  December  bulletin  had  the  following:  "Mangels  appear  to  have 
suffered  more  from  frost  than  any  other  class  of  roots,  the  injury  from  this 
cause  being  rated  at  from  10  to  25  per  cent.  Some  good  returns,  however, 
were  reported." 

Carrots. — A  very  small  acreage  is  now  given  to  carrots  as  a  field  crop. 
The  few  references  to  the  condition  of  the  crop  were  favourable. 

Sugar  Beets. — Like  the  other  root  crops,  sugar  beets  suffered  more  or 
less  from  unfavourable  weather  at  the  harvesting.  Some  fields  were  yet  untouched 
when  correspondents  wrote  in  November.  Some  of  the  crop  was  injured  by 
frost  before  reaching  the  factory.  In  Kent,  where  the  largest  acreage  of  sugar 
beets  is  grown,  the  yield  is  placed  at  from  ten  to  twelve  tons  per  acre,  although 
some  fields  run  as  high  as  sixteen  to  eighteen  tons,  and  the  sugar  content  is  put 
at  about  an  average  of  15  per  cent.,  which  is  lower  than  usual. 


12  REPORT  OF  THE No.  22 

MISCELLANEOUS 
Flax. — This  crop  was  rather  short  in  stalk,  but  the  yield  of  seed  was  fair. 

Tobacco. — August  reports  were  to  the  following  effect:  "The  plants  received 
a  poor  start  owing  to  injury  from  grubs,  cut-worms  and  frosts,  and  considerable 
resetting  had  to  be  done,  which  gave  a  number  of  fields  a  patchy  appearance. 
Some  damage  was  also  done  by  hail.  Notwithstanding  these  drawbacks  the  yield 
per  acre  is  turning  out  fairly  well,  and  will  be  an  improvement  over  last  year's 
crop." 

The  December  bulletin  said  of  tobacco:  "This  crop  had  a  bad  start  owing 
to  frost  and  insects,  necessitating  a  good  deal  of  replanting.  Notwithstanding 
these  drawbacks  the  general  yield  is  regarded  as  well  up  to  the  average,  and  the 
quality  is  as  a  rule  satisfactory.  Some  fields  of  Burley  in  Kent  ran  around  a 
ton  to  the  acre.  Curing  has  been  slower  than  usual,  owing  to  the  damp  weather 
prevailing.     Prices  have  been  encouraging  to  growers." 

Fall  Plowing. — The  good  prices  offered  for  wheat  encouraged  farmers  to 
plan  for  more  fall  plowing  than  usual,  but  the  late  harvest  followed  by  a  long 
term  of  rainy  weather,  prevented  as  much  of  this  work  being  done  as  was  desired. 
A  number  of  correspondents  report  about  the  usual  extent  of  plowing  having 
been  accomplished. 

Threshing  and  Marketing. — The  December  bulletin  said:  "Most  of  the 
threshing  has  been  completed,  the  short  length  of  straw  making  the  work  some- 
what easier  than  usual,  although  there  was  a  generous  return  of  grain.  It  is 
estimated  that  about  sixty  per  cent,  of  the  wheat  has  been  marketed,  more  of 
it  having  been  done  than  at  the  same  date  last  year,  when  growers  held  on  for 
higher  prices,  to  their  loss.  Most  of  the  oats  and  barley  will  be  fed  to  live  stock. 
Peas  are  nearly  all  sold." 

Farm  Improvements. — Some  tile  draining  has  been  done,  but  not  so  much 
as  last  year.  Building  operations  on  the  farm  have  been  on  the  light  side, 
except  where  repairs  were  needed.  Several  correspondents  regard  the  high  cost 
of  material  and  labour  as  being  almost  prohibitive.  A  few  farmers  have  built 
cottages  for  their  married  help.  More  wells  have  been  drilled  than  in  recent 
years.  The  replacement  of  rail  and  other  obsolete  styles  of  fencing  is  going 
steadily  on,  this  being  now  regarded  by  many  farmers  as  a  work  of  necessity. 


FRUIT 

Speaking  of  orchards  and  small  fruits  the  April  bulletin  said:  "Fruit  trees 
and  bushes  have  come  through  the  winter  well,  except  in  some  localities  where 
rabbits  and  mice  did  injury  to  the  bark.  Apples  and  cherries  have  a  good  showing 
of  buds,  but  peaches  are  not  so  promising.  There  has  been  comparatively  small 
damage  from  ice  storms,  and  in  the  few  instances  reported  it  is  claimed  that  the 
ice  or  sleet  has  largely  cleaned  the  trees  of  scale  and  insects.  Correspondents 
complain  that  in  the  majority  of  cases  owners  of  fruit  trees  are  neglecting  their 
orchards,  and  that  more  care  in  spraying  and  pruning  is  needed  for  best  results. 
Difficulty  in  marketing  fruit  satisfactorily  is  also  complained  of." 

The  May  bulletin  had  the  following  to  say  regarding  fruit:  "There  has 
been  a  more  general  show  of  blossom  in  orchards  than  for  some  years,  with 
perhaps  the  exception  of  peaches.  Some  correspondents  refer  to  the  Spy  apple 
as  revealing  more  bloom  than  usual  after  many  years  of  comparative  shyness. 


1926 STATISTICS  BRANCH 13 

"The  frosts  of  May,  more  especially  that  of  the  17th-18th,  have  done  injury 
to  many  orchards,  and  to  strawberries,  black  currants  and  other  small  fruits; 
but  in  most  cases  the  losses  are  not  serious,  as  there  has  been  a  reserve  of  blossom 
in  most  cases. 

"As  might  be  expected,  orchards  look  well  where  pruned,  sprayed  and 
otherwise  cared  for;  while  neglected  fruit  trees  are  fast  dying  out  or  bearing 
poorly." 

Mid-summer  conditions  were  thus  described  in  the  August  bulletin:  "As  to 
orchard  fruits,  it  may  be  said  to  be  an  apple  year,  for  while  the  usual  heavy 
crop  of  early  apples  have  not  shown,  the  later  varieties,  especially  the  Greening 
and  the  Spy,  are  yielding  better  than  for  many  years.  Spraying,  however,  has 
not  been  so  general  as  should  be,  and  a  number  of  complaints  are  made  of  wormy 
and  scabby  fruit. 

"Pears  are  reported  to  be  from  medium  to  heavy  in  yield. 

"Peaches  are  likely  to  be  but  little  over  half  a  crop.  Some  correspondents 
attribute  the  small  yield  to  frosts  at  the  time  of  blossom. 

"Plums  are  not  plentiful  as  usual,  especially  the  better  varieties. 

"Cherries  were  a  medium  yield. 

"Grapes  have  again  proved  to  be  one  of  the  most  reliable  fruit  crops  in  the 
Province,  and  a  fair  general  yield  may  again  be  looked  for. 

"Strawberries  were  caught  by  frost  during  blossoming,  and  were  also 
shortened  in  production  by  the  intense  heat  just  before  picking  time,  which 
considerably  afifected  both  yield  and  quality. 

"Raspberries  were  more  or  less  plentiful,  but  complaints  are  made  of  injury 
to  the  plants  from  the  tip-borer. 

"Wild  blueberries  and  raspberries  were  plentiful  in  the  Northern  districts." 

The  December  bulletin  carried  the  following:  "The  apple  crop  was  on  the 
whole  a  generous  one,  especially  the  more  desirable  winter  varieties,  but  lack  of 
co-operation  in  the  handling  of  this  class  of  fruit  keeps  sales  and  prices  down; 
and  between  intentional  neglect  to  pick,  on  account  of  low  prices  for  fall  apples, 
and  unexpected  heavy  frosts,  an  immense  quantity  of  fruit  has  been  left  on 
the  trees.  Some  report  injury  of  the  more  valuable  winter  apples  from  frost  at 
as  high  as  50  per  cent.  Some  grapes  also  suffered  from  frost.  Peaches  were 
unusually  light  in  yield,  but  they  escaped  injury  from  the  weather." 


LIVE  STOCK 


Animal  conditions  were  thus  referred  to  in  the  April  bulletin: 

Live  stock  did  not  lack  provender  during  the  winter,  and  came  through  in 
first-rate  condition  where  given  ordinary  care.  Better  prices  for  all  classes  of 
farm  animals  had  a  tendency  to  make  farmers  pay  more  attention  to  the  fitting 
of  their  stock. 

There  are  about  the  usual  number  on  hand,  with  fewer  colts  coming.  Prices 
have  been  keeping  up,  and  some  correspondents  are  of  the  opinion  that  the 
horse  is  still  needed  on  the  farm,  and  that  intelligent  breeding  will  pay  well  and 
should  be  encouraged. 

As  many  or  more  cattle  are  on  hand  compared  with  a  year  ago.  The  drift 
is  more  toward  dairying,  although  some  growers  of  beef  animals  are  better 
satisfied  with  market  conditions  to-day  than  they  were  a  year  ago.  All  classes 
of  cattle  will  be  ready  for  the  grass  in  good  general  condition,  owing  to  there 
still  being  a  good  share  of  fodder  on  hand  in  most  barns. 


14 REPORT  OF  THE No.  22 

Hogs  are  reported  to  be  relativ-ely  scarce  and  in  good  demand.  There 
has  been  considerable  falling  off  in  the  number  of  brood  sows  on  hand,  with  a 
consequent  shortage  of  young  pigs.  These  latter  are  selling  at  from  $10  to  $12 
a  pair  when  six  weeks  old.    Several  correspondents  report  losses  in  spring  litters. 

This  class  of  live  stock  is  falling  off  in  numbers,  although  some  correspondents 
speak  highly  of  them  as  a  profitable  farm  product.  Those  who  are  raising  them 
are  as  a  rule  giving  better  attention  to  their  flocks.  Lambs  are  reported  to  be 
coming  strong. 

The  August  bulletin  said:  "Pastures  were  rather  dry  and  deficient  early  in 
the  summer,  but  later  on  frequent  rains  brought  them  into  excellent  condition, 
more  especially  in  the  eastern  half  of  the  Province.  When  correspondents 
wrote  live  stock  had  picked  up,  and  were  in  good  general  form  for  the  time  of 
year,  except  that  flies  were  very  annoying  in  many  quarters. 

"Dairy  cows  were  in  fair  flow  of  milk,  and  there  was  considerable  activity 
in  cheese  factories  and  creameries. 

"The  winter  feed  supply  is  likely  to  be  sufficient,  if  carefully  handled. 
While  hay  will  be  scarce  in  many  of  the  western  counties  of  the  Province,  there 
will  be  plenty  of  good  corn  silage  should  there  be  no  early  frosts.  The  grain 
supply  is  also  more  than  an  average.  Roots  promise  to  yield  well,  and  the  straw, 
though  shorter  in  length  than  usual,  is  comparatively  clean  and  of  good  feed- 
ing quality." 

The  December  bulletin  had  the  following  regarding  pastures,  live  stock  and 
dairying:  "Pastures  were  good  as  a  rule  in  the  fall,  with  the  stock  in  good  flesh, 
but  severe  cold  weather  came  unexpectedly,  and  stabling  had  to  be  done  much 
earlier  than  usual,  which  is  likely  to  make  a  heavy  drain  upon  fodder  supplies, 
unless  the  winter  is  very  mild. 

"Cattle  have  been  in  fair  demand  at  prices  ranging  from  4  cents  a  pound 
for  very  common  animals  to  8  cents  for  well-fed  stock.  Baby  beef  commanded 
as  high  as  10  cents  to  103^9  cents  a  pound  in  some  cases.  Canners  and  rough 
bulls  sold  as  low  as  from  $2  to  $2.50  per  cwt.  Good  grade  milch  cows  brought 
from  $60  to  S90,  while  dry  dairy  cows  sold  at  from  $40  to  S50.  Some  Western 
cattle  were  brought  in  for  finishing. 

"Sheep  came  through  the  open  season  in  fine  form,  and  are  increasing  in 
favour.  Lambs  are  nearly  all  marketed  at  prices  running  from  10  cents  to  12 
cents  a  pound.  Christmas  lambs  are  likely  to  bring  from  13  cents  to  15  cents  a 
pound.    Some  feeder  lambs  have  been  brought  in  from  the  west. 

"Hogs  are  creating  much  interest  owing  to  the  marked  improvement  in 
prices,  which  run  from  $10  to  $12  per  cwt.,  according  to  grading  and  the  nearness 
to  market.  This  means  about  $2  a  cwt.  over  the  figures  paid  a  year  ago.  There 
is  a  comparative  scarcity  of  hogs  on  hand,  and  brood  sows  are  being  eagerly 
sought,  $30  being  paid  in  some  cases.  Little  pigs  are  also  selling  readily  at  good 
prices.    There  are  some  complaints  of  small  litters. 

"Judging  by  the  remarks  of  correspondents,  dairying  in  Ontario  appears 
to  be  more  than  holding  its  own,  as  a  fair  measure  of  profit  is  being  made  by  those 
concerned.  Both  butter  and  cheese  have  their  champions,  but  patrons  of  cheese 
factories  claim  that  they  are  getting  better  returns  this  year  than  are  those 
supplying  cream  for  butter  making,  which  was  not  the  case  last  season.  Both 
butter  and  cheese  have  commanded  better  prices  than  they  did  last  year.  The 
condition  of  dair^-ing  may  also  be  judged  from  the  fact  that  3.5  per  cent,  milk 
that  received  only  SI. 65  a  cwt.  at  a  condensery  last  year,  this  season  brought 
$2  a  cwt.  Cows  that  had  been  milking  well  early  in  the  fall  fell  off  in  flow  sooner 
than  usual  owing  to  the  early  arrival  of  wintry  weather.    The  Holstein  is  claimed 


1926 STATISTICS  BRANCH 15 

to  be  the  most  popular  breed  for  the  dairy,  although  the  grade  Shorthorn  and 
pure-bred  Ayrshire  and  Jersey  cattle  have  their  advocates." 

Poultry. — More  attention  is  being  given  to  poultry  raising  than  ever 
before.  The  bulk  of  correspondents  speak  favourably  of  the  enterprise,  and 
regard  it  as  one  of  the  best  paying  branches  of  farming,  but  some  hold  that 
there  is  little  if  any  profit  in  the  business  for  the  average  farmer.  More  poultry 
houses  than  usual  were  built  this  year,  and  more  attention  is  being  paid  to  the 
breeding  and  culling  of  flocks. 


FODDER  SUPPLIES 

"There  was  sufficient  fodder  on  hand  in  April,  generally  speaking,  for  all 
winter  requirements,  and  in  most  cases  some  to  spare. 

"There  was  an  abundance  of  hay  in  most  parts  of  the  Province,  although 
much  of  it  was  of  only  medium  quality.  There  was  not  as  much  hay  shipped 
out  during  the  winter  as  there  was  a  year  ago,  and  there  is  a  considerable  quantity 
still  on  hand.  Prices  are  quoted  lower  than  those  of  last  spring,  running  from 
$9  to  $10  a  ton,  chiefly  at  the  latter  figure. 

"There  was  a  good  supply  of  straw  on  hand  for  both  bedding  and  fodder. 
Straw  sold  at  nearly  half  the  price  of  hay. 

"A  good  deal  of  sprouted  and  other  inferior  grain  was  fed  to  live  stock  to 
supplement  the  coarser  fodders. 

"There  was  relatively  more  corn  for  the  silo  on  hand  than  corn  in  the  ear 
for  feeding,  and  the  quality  of  the  ensilage  was  much  better  than  it  was  expected 
to  be  earlier  in  the  season  owing  to  the  likelihood  of  late  maturing." 

The  May  bulletin  said:  "The  backward  growth  of  pastures  this  spring  put 
grazing  to  a  later  date  than  usual,  and  more  barn  feeding  had  to  be  done  than  was 
expected.  Fortunately  there  was  a  good  supply  of  fodder  in  most  instances,  and 
live  stock  have  been  brought  to  the  grass  in  good  general  condition.  A  good 
supply  of  both  hay  and  straw  was  on  hand,  and  a  fair  quantity  of  ensilage.  In 
many  localities  there  is  yet  a  surplus  of  hay,  which  is  selling  at  a  comparatively 
low  figure.  There  is  also  a  sufficient  quantity  of  oats  for  all  calls.  Some  corre- 
spondents estimate  the  stores  of  wheat  in  farmers'  hands  at  from  15  to  25  per 
cent.  On  the  whole  the  fodder  situation  has  been  well  met  by  the  average  Ontario 
farmer." 

Early  winter  conditions  were  thus  described  in  the  December  bulletins: 
"Owing  to  the  unusually  early  stabling  of  live  stock,  heavier  drains  than  usual 
are  likely  to  be  made  on  fodder  supplies.  Taking  the  situation  generally,  however, 
most  of  the  farmers  can  get  along  nicely  with  ordinary  careful  feeding,  and  while 
some  may  have  to  purchase  extra  feed,  others  will  have  a  surplus.  In  the  western 
half  of  the  Province  corn  for  the  crib  was  a  much  lighter  crop  than  usual,  on 
account  of  the  borer,  and  the  yield  of  hay  was  a  great  disappointment.  In  the 
eastern  counties  hay  did  well,  and  corn  for  the  silo  was  a  satisfactory  crop. 
All  the  grain  crops  were  short  in  straw,  which,  however,  was  of  good  quality; 
On  the  other  hand,  all  the  grain  crops  yielded  largely,  and  most  of  it  is  now 
fed  on  the  farm. 

"Roots  promised  well,  but  they  were  affected  by  the  heavy  frosts  prevailing 
at  the  time  of  pulling  and  housing.  Clover  hay  is  selling  at  from  $3  to  $5  more  a 
ton  than  was  realized  last  year.  More  alfalfa  hay  than  usual  changed  hands  this 
season.  Straw  brings  from  $5  to  $7  a  load.  Mill  feeds  have  been  bought  at 
prices  slightly  below  those  paid  last  year.

LABOUR  AND  WAGES 

The  April  bulletin  said:  "There  are  a  sufficient  number  of  men  available 
for  farm  work  in  most  localities,  but  really  experienced  farm  labourers  are 
scarce. 

"The  comparatively  early  and  open  spring  is  making  it  easier  to  do  without 
help,  even  though  many  were  behind  with  their  work  owing  to  dry  weather 
hindering  fall  plowing.  Many  farmers  at  present  are  more  inclined  to  hire  by 
the  day  than  by  the  month,  although  the  latter  is  the  usual  method.  Rates 
for  a  term  usually  covering  eight  months  are  quoted  at  from  $30  to  $40  a  month, 
with  board,  there  being  a  slight  range  upward  or  downward,  depending  upon 
the  quality  of  the  worker.  From  $2  to  $3,  with  board,  is  being  paid  day  workers, 
according  to  skill. 

"A  good  deal  of  labour  is  exchanged  between  neighbours,  and  female  members 
of  the  family  sometimes  assist  in  rush  work,  thus  saving  the  hiring  of  outside 
help. 

"Domestic  servants  on  the  farm  are  almost  impossible  to  procure." 

May  returns  were  to  the  following  effect:  "The  supply  of  farm  labour 
during  the  season  was  on  the  whole  sufficient,  although  some  complaints  were 
made  of  the  scarcity  of  help.  There  has  been  practically  no  general  improvement 
in  the  quality  of  workers.  Some  farmers  went  without  assistance  on  account  of 
the  rate  of  wages  prevailing,  which  they  considered  too  high  for  profit,  although 
the  average  terms  are  practically  the  same  as  those  of  last  season.  As  to  the  rise 
or  fall  of  farm  wages,  the  general  opinion  is  that  little  or  no  change  will  be  made 
in  the  rate  while  town  or  city  workers  receive  remuneration  now  prevailing. 
Some  correspondents  are  of  the  opinion  that  a  longer  term  of  employment  would 
be  more  satisfactory  all  around.  Many  farmers  are  still  depending  upon  family 
help  in  the  field  in  time  of  rush,  or  an  exchange  of  labour  with  neighbours. 
Domestic  servants  are  as  scarce  as  ever.  The  Western  harvest  migration,  as 
usual,  made  all  help  very  scarce  on  Ontario  farms." 

Labour  conditions  during  harvest  were  thus  described  in  the  August  bulletin : 
"In  most  localities  there  was  a  sufficiency  of  farm  labour  during  the  greater 
part  of  the  harvest  season,  but  most  of  it  was  not  of  good  quality.  The  annual 
exodus  of  harvesters  to  the  prairie  provinces  is  earlier  than  usual,  and  there  is 
now  a  temporary  scarcity  of  Ontario  farm  help  to  gather  in  the  later  crops. 
Farmers  are  getting  the  aid  of  neighbours  and  members  of  their  own  families 
to  assist  them  in  clearing  off  the  fields.  Harvest  wages  are  from  $2  to  $3  a  day, 
with  board,  and  from  $30  to  $45  a  month,  with  board,  chiefly  around  $35. 
Wages  by  the  year  range  from  $300  to  $450. 

The  December  bulletin  said:  "The  supply  of  farm  labour  during  the  season 
was  on  the  whole  sufficient,  although  some  complaints  were  made  of  the  scarcity 
of  help.  There  has  been  practically  no  general  improvement  in  the  quality  of 
workers.  Some  farmers  went  without  assistance  on  account  of  the  rate  of  wages 
prevailing,  which  they  considered  too  high  for  profit,  although  the  average  terms 
are  practically  the  same  as  those  of  last  season.  As  to  the  rise  or  fall  of  farm 
wages,  the  general  opinion  is  that  little  or  no  change  will  be  made  in  the  rate

correspondents  are  of  the  opinion  that  a  longer  term  of  employment  would  be

Domestic  servants  are  as  scarce  as  ever.  The  Western  harvest  migration,  as 
usual,  made  all  help  very  scarce  on  Ontario  farms.

REVIEW  OF  FISCAL  YEAR  1925  , 


The  prediction  of  better  general  business  conditions  for  the  year  1925  has 
to  a  degree  been  justified  in  the  expansion  in  many  Hues  of  endeavour,  and  it 
now  seems  that  a  larger  measure  of  general  prosperity  is  approaching  that  will 
quicken  the  pulse  of  business  throughout  the  Dominion.  The  impetus  that  was 
needed  to  usher  in  better  conditions  was  supplied  by  the  excellent  field  crops 
,that  are  the  basis  of  the  nation's  prosperity.  The  latest  available  figures 
disclose  that  wheat,  oats,  barley,  rye,  etc.,  will  exceed  by  over  two  hundred 
million  bushels  the  output  of  the  preceding  year,  and  on  the  whole  it  appears 
that  m.uch  better  prices  will  be  obtained  in  the  world's  markets.  Should  the 
newly  developed  "Garnet"  wheat  prove  up  to  the  expectation  of  the  Federal 
Department  of  Agriculture,  the  wheat-growing  possibilities  of  the  Dominion 
within  a  few  years  will  be  vastly  augmented  as  far  northern  territories  come 
under  culti\ation  with  this  quickK-  ripening  grain. 

An  outstanding  feature  of  the  year's  activities  has  been  the  great  advance 
in  mineral  development  and  the  expenditure  of  much  money  in  exploratory 
work,  particularly  in  Northern  Ontario  and  Northwestern  Quebec,  and  the 
development  of  our  existent  and  latent  resources  will  prove  of  great  value  to 
the  country  at  large.  The  mining  districts  served  by  the  T.  &  N.  O.  Railway 
will  probably  produce  new  wealth  to  the  extent  of  thirty-five  million  dollars 
within  the  present  yeeir.  and  yearly  this  will  increase  as  new  properties  enter  the 
producing  stage.  Kirkland  Lake,  Porcupine,  South  Lorrain,  Gowganda  and 
Cobalt  have  added  new  laurels  to  their  previously  remarkable  records,  and 
Canadian.  American  and  British  investors  are  becoming  more  and  more  inter- 
ested in  the  vast  mineral  potentialities  of  the  great  north  mineral  belts. 

During  the  latter  part  of  the  year,  arrangements  were  made  with  the 
Canadian  Mint  at  Ottawa  whereby  gold  bullion  is  accepted  by  the  Mint  and 
paid  for  in  Canadian  funds  in  any  specified  Canadian  bank.  This  is  distinctly 
more  advantageous  to  the  mines  than  the  hitherto  method  of  shipping  to  United 
States 'refineries,  and  in  consequence  more  than  two  tons  of  gold  were  received 
at  Ottaw^a  within  a  few  days  after  completion  of  arrangements,  and  as  much  as 
22.000  ounces  have  been  received  within  a  week. 

The  power  development  at  Island  Falls  was  purchased  bytheAbitibi  Power 
and  Paper  Co.  from  the  Hollinger,  and  the  consolidation  of  the  water  power 
developments  at  W'iwaitin,  Sandy  Falls,  Sturgeon  River  and  the  Des  Quinze 
by  Montreal  interests  provides  ample  power  for  all  purposes,  and  the  influence 
on  the  Porcupine  mines  is  already  reflected  in  increased  mineral  production  and 
profit. 

The  sulphide  deposits  of  Rouxn  Township,  Quebec,  have  almost  eclipsed 
the  importance  of  the  earlier  gold  discoveries. 

The  Noranda  Mines  on  the  Home  property  have  established  the  possession 
of  huge  deposits  through  drilling  and  underground  work,  and  other  properties 
are  found  to  be  rich  in  gold  and  copper  content.  The  extension  of  the  railway 
(N.C.  Rly.)  to  the  Quebec  border  will  serve  this  territory  during  the  present 
winter  months  to  its  full  requirements. 


8 THE  REPORT  OF  THE  TEMISKAAIING  AND  No.  23 

During  the  year  a  number  of  additions  and  betterments  were  made  to  the 
operated  lines  of  the  Commission,  consisting  of  new  power  plant  at  North  Bay, 
of  brick  and  steel  construction,  with  steam  generating  equipment  of  sectional 
water  tube  boilers,  with  superheaters  developing  500  horsepower  at  150  per 
cent,  rating.  Pulverized  coal  will  be  used  for  firing,  with  necessary  crushing 
(ball  mill)  equipment  and  air  compressors,  et  al. 

An  addition  of  a  six-stall  enginehouse  of  modern  construction  was  built  at 
Englehart,  with  new  turntable  of  required  capacity,  also  a  two-stall  enginehouse 
at  New  Liskeard  to  provide  for  South  Lorrain  Branch  requirements. 

Additional  rolling  stock,  consisting  of  three  new  Mikado  type  locomotives, 
was   purchased   from  the  Canadian  Locomotive  Works,  Kingston,  Ontario. 

The  operation  of  the  Temiskaming  and  Northern  Ontario  Railway  during 
fiscal  year  1925  has  been  satisfactory,  considering  restrictions  due  to  general 
business  curtailment  experienced  in  the  early  months  and  consequent  restriction 
of  railway  traffic. 

Revenue  from  freight  earnings  in  1925  shows  a  reduction  of  8114,833.94, 
as  compared  with  preceding  year's  business  (3.5  per  cent.),  and  passenger  revenue 
decreased  $218,767.43  (16  per  cent.),  while  operating  expenditures  were  also 
decreased  by  §344,363.58,  equalling  8.2  per  cent,  for  the  period,  resulting  in  a 
decreased  net  revenue  for  the  year  of  §59,712.09  (7.1  per  cent.). 

Under  the  heading  of  "Maintenance."  the  general  upkeep  of  the  road  has 
been  maintained  to  standard  requirements,  with  extensive  repairs  and  better- 
ments to  general  equipment,  all  of  which  ha\e  been  taken  to  account  in  current 
year's  expenditures. 

The  principal  items  of  expense  in  this  connection  were  tie  renewals  for 
main  line  and  sidings,  to  the  extent  of  126,162  ties,  and  rail  renewals  (90  lb.) 
A.R.A.  type,  exceeding  twenty  (20)  miles  of  new  rail,  with  necessary  tie  plates, 
et  al.  In  addition,  sixteen  (16)  miles  of  main  line  were  re-ballasted  to  conform 
to  standard. 

Very  considerable  replacements  in  copper  wire,  new  poles  and  arms  were 
effected  on  the  Porcupine-Iroquois  Falls  Subdivision,  and  commercial  telegraph 
operations  on  the  Lorrain  Branch  were  instituted. 

The  total  revenue  tonnage  carried  in  1925  was  1,350,795  tons,  a  decrease 
of  59,930.     This  traffic  was  composed  as  follows: 

Per  cent. 

Forest  products 43 

Manufactured  and  miscellaneous v^O 

Mine  products 22 

Agricultural  products 4 

Animal  products 1 

Statistical  statements  appended  show  the  Commission's  gross  revenue  in 
1925  from  all  sources  was  84.875,862.31,  as  compared  with  85,255,621.65  in 
1924 — a  decrease  of  8379,759.34.  equalling  7.2  per  cent.,  and  gross  expenditure 
84,095,876.42,  compared  with  84,415.923.67  in  1924— a  decrease  of  8320,047.25, 
equalling  7.2  per  cent. 

The  net  results  of  operation  in  1925  were  8779,985.89,  compared  with 
8839,697.98  in  1924,  a  decrease  of  859.712.09,  equalling  7.1  per  cent. 

Under  the  direction  of  the  Honourable  the  Prime  Minister  of  Ontario,  the 
Commission  have  for  the  past  year  directly  undertaken  all  necessary  financing 
for  capital  expenditure  and  construction  for  the  Temiskaming  and  Northern 
Ontario  Railway — and  also  for  its  subsidiary,  the  Nipissing  Central  Railway — 
bearing  such  interest  charges  as  contracted  and  paying  for  same  from  its  oper- 
ating revenue. 


1926  NORTHERN  ONTARIO  RAILWAY  COMMISSION 9 

In  authorization  thereof.  Bill  No.  61,  "An  Act  to  amend  the  Temiskaming 
and  Northern  Ontario  Railway  Act,"  was  passed  by  the  Legislature,  wherein 
the  Commission  is  henceforth  empowered  to  borrow  money  from  time  to  time 
for  the  construction  of  its  railway,  and  the  purchase  of  rolling  stock  and  other 
equipment  therefor,  and  to  issue  bonds,  debentures,  notes,  or  other  securities 
to  provide  for  the  repayment  of  any  moneys  so  borrowed. 

Irlsurance  against  fire  loss  has  been  carried  to  the  extent  of  three  million 
three  hundred  thousand  dollars  on  Commission's  property. 

In  conclusion,  the  Railway  is  in  an  excellent  financial  and  physical  condition.

NIPISSING  CENTRAL  RAILWAY 

REVIEW  OF  FISCAL  YEAR   1925 


On  November  9th,  1924,  the  railway  between  Swastika  and  Larder  Lake 
was  taken  over  from  construction  and  became  operative  on  that  date,  electric 
battery  storage  cars  being  put  into  service  for  passenger  accommodation,  and 

steam  trains  for  freight  mo\-ement. 

In  March,  1925,  further  construction  of  the  road  from  Larder  Lake  to 
Quebec  boundary  was  undertaken  and  completed  in  the  early  summer  raonths. 
Temporary  terminal  facilities  have  been  established  at  Cheminis — the  present 
terminus— and  it  is  anticipated  that  considerable  freight  and  passenger  traffic 
will  develop  to  and  from  the  Rouyn  Gold-Copper  Mining  Area.  A  service  of 
two  trains  per  day  in  each  direction  has  been  inaugurated;  with  close  connections 
at  Cheminis  with  bus  service  and  at  Swastika  with  through  passenger  trains  of 
the  Temiskaming  and  Northern  Ontario  Railway.

TWENTIETH  ANNUAL  REPORT 

of  the 

Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board 

to  December  31st,  1925. 


To  The  Honourable  Hexry  Cockshutt, 

Lieutenant-Governor  of  the  Province  of  Ontario  in  Council. 

In  pursuance  of  Section  57  of  "The  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board 
Act,"  the  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board  beg  leave  respectfully  to 
submit  their  Twentieth  Annual  Report. 

Sittings  of  the  Board 

The  Board  held  meetings  for  the  transaction  of  routine  business  every 
juridical  day  throughout  the  year.  The  record  of  the  sessions  of  the  Board  and 
an  abstract  of  the  proceedings,  together  with  the  Judgments  or  Opinions  of 
the  Board,  appear  in  the  Appendix. 

Applications  to  the  Board 

There  were  640  formal  applications  made  to  the  Board  in  1925.  Of  the 
formal  applications  all  those  in  which  the  parties  were  ready  to  go  to  trial  have 
been  heard  and  disposed  of,  except  in  a  few  cases  where  adjournments  were 
granted  to  the  parties  at  the  request  of  Counsel,  or  in  order  to  procure  further 
evidence,  or  to  obtain  reports  from  experts  in  connection  with  technical  matters 
in  question. 

Some  of  the  formal  applications  are  still  standing  for  trial,  but  the  parties 
are  not  yet  ready  to  go  to  trial,  as  in  the  more  important  matters  the  parties 
interested  are  showing  an  increasing  disposition  to  take  advantage  of  the  oppor- 
tunities afforded  them  by  the  Board's  Rules  for  obtaining  discovery  and  pro- 
duction, thus,  to  some  extent,  delaying  the  final  dates  of  the  hearing  of  the 
applications,  but  in  reality  facilitating  the  final  disposition  at  the  hearings  of 
all  the  matters  in  question  between  the  parties. 

Law  Stamps 

The  amount  of  revenue  collected  by  the  Board  in  Law  Stamps  in  the  year 
1918  was  83,939.40;  in  1919,  84,674.00;  in  1920,  86,957.50;  in  1921,  $8,063.50; 
in  1922,  89,302.00;  in  1923,  810,866.00;  in  1924,  810,743.00;  and  $7,262.00  in 
1925.  The  decrease  in  1925  is  due  principally  to  the  drastic  curtailment  by 
Municipalities  of  their  debenture  issues,  as  will  appear  more  fully  by  reference 


8 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

to  subsequent  paragraphs  of  this  Report  under  the  headings  "Validation  of 
Municipal  Debentures"  and  "Extensions  of  Municipal  Utilities  approved 
under  subsection  (3)  of  section  400  of  "The  Consolidated  Municipal  Act,  1922." 

Provincial  Railways 

An  alphabetical  list  (under  the  names  of  the  railway  companies  affected) 
of  applications  to  the  Board  during  1925,  affecting  Provincial  Railways,  is 
contained  in  the  Appendix  to  this  Report. 

Extensions  of,  and  improvements  to.  Provincial  Railways  during  1925, 
as  reported  to  the  Board,  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix  (arranged  alphabetically) 
under  the  names  of  the  several  systems  reporting. 

A  tabulation  (arranged  alphabetically)  of  Railways  under  the  Board's  juris- 
diction, will  be  found  in  the  Appendix.  This  tabulation  shows,  for  each  railway, 
the  lengths  of  first  and  second  main  track,  total  main  track,  sidings  and  turnouts, 
and  total  computed  as  singl'^  track,  the  length  under  construction,  the  number 
of  power  houses  and  whether  steam  or  water,  and  whence  power  obtained. 

There  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix  an  analytical  tabulated  summary  of 
Accident  Reports  received  by  the  Board  for  1925;  also  a  continuation  (up  to 
and  inclusive  of  1925)  of  the  Board's  index  to  Railway  Legislation. 

The  Appendix  also  contains  tables  showing  provincial  aid  to  railways 
since  Confederation,  and  an  index  to  Legislation,  Dominion  and  Provincial, 
since  1867,  affecting  Railways  ''n  Ontario. 

Reports  to  the  House 

In  pursuance  of  Rule  61a  of  the  House  the  Board  has  made  inquiry  into 
and  reported  upon  three  financial  Bills  which  were  introduced  last  session  into 
the  Legislature.     A  list  of  the  Bills  so  reported  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix. 

Annexatioxs  of  Territory 

There  were  three  applications  made  in  1925  by  cities,  towns,  villages  and 
townships  for  annexation  of  additional  territory  thereto.  An  alphabet'cal  list 
of  annexation  applications  is  contained  in  the  Appendix. 

Validation  of  Municipal  Debentures 
(Section  295  of  "The  Consolidated  Municipal  Act,  1922.") 

There  were  130  applications  to  the  Board  under  the  above  legislation  in 
1925,  involving  debentures  of  a  total  value  of  $4,544,784.49.  Acf'ng  under 
the  powers  conferred  by  the  above  legislation,  the  Board  was  able  to  grant 
relief  in  nearly  all  these  cases,  included  in  which  were  more  than  76  by-laws 
affected  by  irregularities  which  would  otherwise  have  probably  required  special 
Acts  of  the  Legislature  to  make  the  debentures  valid  and  saleable. 

Municipalities  are  showing  an  increasing  disposition  to  have  their  by-laws 
and  debentures  validated  under  said  section  295,  even  in  cases  where  no  irregu- 
larities occur  requiring  the  curative  powers  of  the  Board  thereunder,  as  they 
have  found  that  such  validation  facilitates  the  marketing  of  their  debentures. 

The  amount  of  debentures  validated  by  the  Board  during  1908  was  over 
$840,000;  during  1909  over  $1,326,000;  in  1910,  over  $718,000;  in  1911,  over 
$1,350,000;  in  1912,  over  $1,330,000;  in  1913,  over  $2,990,000;  in  1914,  over

in  1918,  $5,273,742.43;  in  1919,  $2,209,589.99;  in  1920,  $4,359,538.05;  in  1921, 
$5,297,925.75;  in  1922,  $6,046,223.10;  in  1923,  $6,061,954.16;  in  1924, 
$7,341,426.33— a  total  to  the  end  of  1925  of  otver  $59,000,000.  An  alphabetical 
list  of  these  applications  filed  in  1925  is  given  in  the  Appendix  and  will  be  found 
indexed  under  the  word  "Validation." 

Assessment  Appeals 

There  were  six  assessment  appeals  to  the  Board  during  the  year  1925. 
The  assessed  value  of  the  property  affected  by  these  appeals  was  over  $2,325,000. 
An  alphabetical  list  of  these  assessment  appeals  is  contained  in  the  Appendix. 

Railway  Returns 

Annual  Reports  to  December  31st,  1925,  by  Railway  Companies,  under 
the  Board's  jurisdiction,  were  received,  of  which  a  summarized  tabulation  has 
been  prepared  for  publication  herein,  and  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix. 
The  Board  has  no  means  of  auditing  the  reports  as  received,  and  does  not  there- 
fore represent  or  guarantee  that  the  figures  taken  therefrom  are  correct  or 
accurate.  Heretofore  these  reports  were  copied  and  tabulated  as  received  and 
published  in  the  Board's  Annual  Report,  this  practice  having  been  discontinued 
for  the  first  time  last  year,  a  summarized  tabulation  being  now  published  as 
above  mentioned. 

Accidents 

A  tabulated  summary  of  Accident  Reports  received  by  the  Board  from 
Provincial  Railways  during  the  year  1925  appears  in  the  Appendix  and  shows 
that  17  persons  were  killed  and  666  injured  during  the  year. 

In  1908.  26  persons  were  killed  and  391  injured;  in  1909,  16  were  killed 
and  340  injured;  in  1910,  34  were  killed  and  399  injured;  in  1911,  33  were  killed 
and  541  injured;  in  1912,  25  were  killed  and  537  injured;  in  1913,  13  were  killed 
and  710  injured;  in  1914,  12  were  killed  and  613  injured;  in  1915,  30  were  killed 
and,612  injured  (this  included  15  killed  and  144  injured  in  accident  at  Queenston, 
July  7th,  1915);  13  were  killed  and  356  injured  in  1916;  27  fatal  and  377  other 
personal  accidents  in  1917;  22  persons  were  killed  and  426  injured  during  1918; 
in  1919,  24  persons  were  killed  and  507  injured;  16  were  killed  and  473  injured 
during  1920;  10  persons  were  killed  and  270  injured  in  1921;  in  1922  there  were 
20  persons  killed  and  353  injured;  in  1923,  18  persons  were  killed  and  592  injured; 
and  in  1924,  18  persons  were  killed  and  634  injured  in  Railway  accidents. 

Ontario  Safety  League 

Early  in  1913  the  members  of  the  Board  called  together  representatives  of 
various  organizations  which  were  specially  interested  in  the  question  of  street 
traffic.  Representatives  were  sent  from  the  Board  of  Trade,  Canadian  Manu- 
facturers' Association,  City  Council,  Ontario  Motor  League,  Board  of  Education, 
Separate  School  Board,  Toronto  Railway  Company,  Toronto  District  Labour 
Council,  Boy  Scouts,  Team  Owners'  Association  and  many  others.  Every 
delegate  realized  that  the  question  was  one  that  dealt  with  actual  dangers  to 
which  the  public  was  constantly  exposed,  and  each  agreed  that  some  definite 
and  concerted  action  must  be  taken.     After  numerous  conferences  the  Ontario 


10 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

Safety  League  was  organized  on  the  17th  September,  1913.  The  League  has 
since  done  much  good  and  vitally  useful  work  towards  lessening  the  dangers 
of  travel,  especially  on  congested  highways. 

A  summary  of  the  League's'  1925   campaign   appears  in   the  Appendix. 

The  League  has  for  some  time  been  arranging  to  become  national  in  its 
organization  and  operations,  and  has  furthered  the  incorporation  of  The  Canadian 
National  Safety  League. 

Plans 

(Plans  of  Land  Subdivisions) 

Under  "The  Planning  and  Development  Act"  (Chapter  38,  1918),  "The 
Land  Titles  Amendment  Act,  1917"  and  "The  Registry  Act,"  the  Board  con- 
sidered during  the  year  59  applications  for  approval  of  plans.  An  alphabetical 
list  of  owners  of  the  lands  subdivided  by  these  plans  will  be  found  in  the  Appendix. 

In  1912,  154  such  applications  were  considered;  213  in  1913,  137  in  1914; 
38  in  1915;  18  in  1916;  45  in  1917;  42  in  1918;  51  in  1919;  111  in  1920;  89 
in  1921;   99  in  1922;    100  in  1923;   and  89  in  1924.

Total  number  of  applications 278 

The  Board  or  its  Supervisor  of  Telephone  Systems  during  the  year  visited 
76  different  points  in  the  Province  in  connection  with  the  foregoing  applications. 

The  continued  policy  of  the  Board  in  endeavouring  to  secure  an  amicable 
settlement  of  matters  in  dispute  between  the  applicant  and  respondent  has,  with 
the  assistance  of  the  Board's  Supervisor,  proved  successful  in  the  majority  of 
such  cases. 

In  addition  to  the  applications  and  complaints  referred  to,  a  vast  amount 
of  correspondence  relating  to  telephone  matters  has  been  dealt  with  by  the 
Board's  Supervisor,  through  the  medium  of  which  much  information  and  assist- 
ance has  been  given  to  municipalities,  companies  and  other  persons  interested, 
and  many  difficulties  that  might  otherwise  have  necessitated  a  formal  application 
and  public  hearing  have  been  satisfactorily  adjusted. 

A  number  of  points  were  visited  by  the  Board's  Inspector  of  Telephone 
Service  during  the  year  for  the  purpose  in  investigating  complaints  made  by 
subscribers,  and  upon  his  report  and  recommendation  the  Board  has  been  enabled 
to  secure  considerable  improvement  in  the  telephone  service  furnished  by  the 
systems  coming  under  his  observation. 

,The  establishment  of  telephone  systems  by  the  rural  municipalities  under 
the  provisions  of  Part  II  of  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918,"  continues  to 
grow  in  favour  with  the  public.  There  are  now  114  of  these  systems  being 
operated  or  under  construction.  These  systems  are  furnishing  service  to  256 
towns,  villages  and  townships. 

There  are  nine  systems  owned  and  operated  by  municipalities  under  the 
provisions  of  Part  I  of  the  Act,  viz.:  The  Cities  of  Fort  William  and  Port 
Arthur,  the  towns  of  Cochrane,  Kenora,  Fort  Frances  and  Rainy  River,  and 
the  townships  of  Alberton,  Caledon  and  Hilliard. 

The  number  of  telephone  systems  of  which  the  Board  has  record  is  626, 
operating  approximately  104,000  telephones  and  representing  an  investment  of 
about  $10,100,000.00.  While  the  actual  number  of  systems  is  less  than  in 
1924,  this  is  due  to  the  merging  of  some  of  the  smaller  systems  for  the  pur- 
pose of  incorporation  under  "The  Ontario  Companies  Act." 

Detailed  statistics  and  other  information  relative  to  the  telephone  systems 
within  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Board  will  be  found  in  the  booklet,  "Telephone 
Systems,  1925,"  published  concurrently  with  this  report.

Supervisor  of  Telephone  Systems.

Report 

Pursuant  to  appointment  the  \'ice-Chairman  and  the  Commissioner  of  the 
Board  held  a  conference  with  representatives  of  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of 
London,  the  London  Street  Railway  Company,  the  Canadian  Inspection  and 
Testing  Company,  Limited,  and  Mr.  H.  W.  Middlemist,  the  Chief  Engineer  of 
the  Board,  at  the  offices  of  the  London  Street  Railway  Company.  The  matters 
in  question  were  the  following  railway  bridges  located  on  Dundas,  Wellington, 
York  and  Ridout  Streets. 

After  some  discussion  the  Company  agreed  to  renew  or  repair  the  Dundas 
Street  and  Wellington  Street  bridges  forthwith,  in  accordance  with  the  reports 
of  the  Canadian  Inspection  and  Testing  Company. 

The  use  of  the  Ridout  Street  bridge  for  the  carrying  of  passengers  over  it 
in  the  cars  of  the  Company  was  to  be  discontinued  after  to-day,  but  the  Com- 
pany would  be  permitted  mornings  and  evenings,  and  at  other  times  in  cases 
of  emergency,  to  cross  over  the  bridge  with  their  empty  cars  going  to  and  from 
their  car  barns  at  their  own  risk. 

Further  consideration  of  the  York  Street  bridge  was  deferred  until  the  full 
Board  would  have  an  opportunity  of  considering  certain  phases  which  developed 
in  regard  to  the  York  Street  bridge,  such  matters  to  be  decided  and  an  Order 
to  be  issued  within  a  few  days  covering  the  four  bridges. 

The  City  and  the  Railway  Company  being  joint  users  of  the  York  Street 
bridge,  it  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  representatives  of  the  citizens  and  the  Com- 
pany will  work  together  harmoniously  with  the  idea  of  agreeing  on  the  outlined 
necessary  repairs,  or,  better  still,  on  the  construction  of  a  new  bridge  such  as 
will  accommodate  all  the  traffic  of  every  kind. 

It  was  mutually  agreed  that  the  Company  were  to  select  either  or  all  of 
the  following  bridge  companies  to  make  the  necessary  renewals  or  repairs  to  the 
bridges:  The  Dominion  Bridge  Company,  Toronto;  The  Canadian  Bridge 
Company,  Walkerville;   The  Hamilton  Bridge  Company,  Hamilton. 

The  company  or  companies  employed  are  to  prepare  plans  and  specifica- 
tions, and  an  estimate  of  cost  of  such  work  or  works,  the  same  to  be  approved 
by  the  railway  company,  and  with  the  approval  of  the  Board  and  the  engineers 
in  respect  to  plans  and  specifications,  the  same  to  be  in  keeping  with  the  reports 
of  the  Canadian  Inspection  and  Testing  Company,  Ltd. 

During  the  period  of  the  work  it  was  agreed  that  a  representative  of  the 
above  named  Inspection  Company  would  from  time  to  time,  when  necessary. 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 15 

inspect  its  progress  and  report  to  the  railway  company,  and  on  its  completion 
report  to  the  Company,  the  City  and  to  the  Railway  Board  as  to  its  condition 
after  being  completed. 

It  wull  be  found  necessary  to  construct  a  curve  at  the  southwest  corner  of 
Wortley  Road  and  Stanley  Street  so  as  to  enable  the  Company  to  provide  a 
service  to  Springbank,  and  to  the  southern  section  of  London  which  is  located 
south  and  west  of  York  Street  and  Ridout  Street  bridges.  The  Order  of  the 
Board  should  provide  for  this  curve. 

It  was  agreed  that  a  clause  should  be  inserted  in  the  Order  whereby  the 
interests  of  the  City  and  the  Company  should  be  protected ;  that  neither  party 
should  be  prejudiced  by  reason  of  these  proceedings.  It  was  also  agreed  that 
Mr.  Elliott  should  frame  a  clause  having  this  object  in  view,  and  submit  the 
same  to  the  Board. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

(Sgd.)     A.  B.  Ingram, 

Vice-Chainnan. 
I  agree.

24 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

Stated  Case 

Upon  the  application  of  the  parties  hereto  the  following  case  is  stated  for 
the  opinion  of  the  Appellate  Division  of  the  Supreme  Court  under  an  Order  of 
The  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board  dated  the  20th  day  of  May,  A.D. 
1925,  made  pursuant  to  section  46  of  "The  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal 
Board  Act,"  being  R.S.O.  1914,  Chap.  186. 

The  Township  of  North  York  was  incorporated  by  an  Act  of  the  Ontario 
Legislature,  Chap.  140  of  the  Statutes  of  1922,  effective  19th  July,  1922.  Prior 
to  such  incorporation  the  territory  forming  the  Township  of  North  York  was  a 
part  of  the  territory  in  the  TownshiiP  of  York. 

The  Township  of  York  under' By-laws  set  out  in  Schedule  "A"  hereto 
annexed,  and  passed  prior  to  the  separation  of  the  Township  of  North  York 
from  the  Township  of  York  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  "The  Local  Improve- 
ment Act,"  constructed  a  number  of  local  improvement  works  such  as  pave- 
ments, sidewalks,  opening  streets,  etc.,  of  which  in  respect  of  four  being  those 
in  said  Schedule  "A"  bearing  By-law  Numbers  5686,  6581,  6591  and  7537,  all 
the  land  specially  assessed  in  respect  of  such  work  lies  wholly  within  the  Muni- 
cipality of  North  York,  and  the  remainder  of  the  said  local  improvement  works 
set  out  in  said  Schedule  "A,"  and  all  the  land  specially  assessed  in  respect  of 
the  same,  lie  wholly  within  the  Township  of  York. 

As  authorized  by  the  provisions  of  "The  Local  Improvement  Act"  a  part 
of  the  cost  of  the  local  improvement  works  referred  to  in  the  next  preceding 
paragraph  was  specially  assessed  agaunst  the  lots  abutting  directly  upon  the 
respective  works  according  to  the  extent  of  their  respective  frontages  thereon 
by  ah  equal  special  rate  per  foot  of  such  respective  frontages,  and  the  balance  of 
the  said  cost  is  to  be  borne  by  the  Corporation  of  the  Township  of  York. 

The  Corporation's  share  of  the  cost  of  the  said  works,  so  as  aforesaid  charged 
against  the  Township  of  York,  is  the  sum  of  $201,633.07,  and  it  is  the  apportion- 
ment of  this  cost  as  between  the  Township  of  York  and  the  Township  of  North 
York  that  is  in  question  in  this  proceeding. 

The  assessment  for  the  year  1922  of  that  part  of  the  Township  of  York 
now  forming  the  Township  of  North  York  constitutes  22.92  per  cent,  of  the 
total  assessment  of  the  Township  of  York  for  that  year. 

The  Township  of  York,  the  senior  township  for  the  purpose  of  this  proceed- 
ing, claims  that  the  corporation's  share  of  the  cost  of  the  said  local  improvement 
works  should  be  borne  by  the  Township  of  North  York  in  the  proportion  w^hich 
the  assessment  for  the  year  1922  of  that  part  of  the  Township  of  York  now 
forming  the  Township  of  North  York  bears  to  the  total  assessment  of  the  Town- 
ship of  York  for  the  year  1922. 

The  Township  of  North  York  contends  that  the  true  interpretation  of 
sections  34,  36  and  40  of  "The  Consolidated  Municipal  Act  of  1922"  makes 
the  Township  of  York,  the  senior  township,  liable  for  the  corporation's  share 
of  all  such  local  improvements  as  are  situate  wholly  within  the  senior  township 
of  York,  and  the  junior  township  of  North  York  liable  for  the  corporation's 
share  of  all  such  local  improvements  as  are  situate  wholly  within  the  said  Town- 
ship of  North  York. 

The  questions  for  the  opinion  of  the  Court  are: — 

(1)  Whether  under  "The  Consolidated  Municipal  Act,  1922"  the  corpora- 
tion's share  of  the  cost  of  said  local  improvement  works  where  the  land  specially 
assessed   therefor  lies  wholly  in  the  Township  of  North  York,  and  no  more, 


1926     RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 25 

shall  be  borne  by  the  Township  of  North  York,  and  the  corporation's  share  of 
the  cost  of  the  remainder  of  the  said  local  improvement  works,  and  no  more, 
shall  be  borne  by  the  Township  of  York;  or 

(2)  Whether  the  corporation's  share  of  the  cost  of  all  the  said  local  improve- 
ment works  shall  be  borne  by  the  Township  of  York  and  the  Township  of  North 
York  respectively  in  the  proportion  which  the  total  assessed  value  for  the  year 
1922  of  the  area  which  immediately  after  the  severance  formed  the  Township 
of  North  York  bears  to  the  assessed  value  for  the  said  year  of  the  portion  of 
the  original  Township  of  York  which  immediately  after  the  severance  formed 
the  Township  of  York,  that  is  to  say  in  the  proportion  of  22.92  per  cent,  and 
77.08  per  cent,  or  if  not. 

(3)  What  is  the  proper  principle  to  apply  in  the  apportionment  of  the 
corporation's  share  of  the  cost  of  the  said  local  improvement  works  as 
between  the  said  Township  of  York  and  the  said  Township  of  North  York.

The  Municipal  Corporation  of  the  Township  of  Eastnor, 

Respondent. 
Opinion 

This  is  an  appeal  by  the  Appellant,  William  Gillies,  from  the  decision  of 
the  learned  Judge  of  the  County  Court  of  the  County  of  Bruce,  confirming  the 
assessment  of  that  part  of  the  Appellant's  telephone  system  situated  in  the 
Township  of  Eastnor.  The  Respondent  raised  a  preliminary  objection  that 
the  Appellant  had  no  right  of  appeal.  This  contention  was  based  on  the  follow- 
ing considerations.  The  Appellant.  William  Gillies,  is  the  sole  individual  owner 
of  the  system  or  part  of  the  system  whose  assessment  is  in  question  here.  Sec- 
tion 79  of  "The  Assessment  Act"  contains  the  provisions  of  the  law  under 
which  he  has  appealed,  and  is  the  only  one  under  which  he  can  appeal,  if  at  all, 
from  the  judgment  of  the  County  Judge  to  this  Board.  Section  79  reads  as 
follows: 

"79.  The  decision  and  judgment  of  the  Judge  or  acting  Judge  shall  be 
final  and  conclusive  in  every  case  adjudicated  upon,  except  that 
in  the  case  of  the  assessment  of  a  telephone  company  an  appeal 
shall  lie  from  such  decision  and  judgment  to  the  Ontario  Railway 
and  Municipal  Board,  and  the  procedure  upon  such  appeal  shall  be 
the  same  as  upon  an  appeal  under  Section  80  of  this  Act." 

If  there  were  nothing  further  to  be  said  the  citation  of  this  section  would 
effectually  preclude  any  appeal  by  the  Appellant;  only  a  telephone  company 
may  appeal  from  the  decision  of  the  County  Judge — the  telephone  system  in 
question  is  owned  solely  by  an  individual  or  natural  person,  and  as  to  him 
the  decision  and  judgment  is  final  and  conclusive. 

But  the  Appellant  contends  that  the  provisions  of  "The  Assessment  Act" 
relating  to  telephone  companies — sections  10  (1)  (k),  14,  15  and  79 — are  in 
pari  materia  with  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918"  (8  Geo.  V,  Chap.  31), 
and  they  are  to  be  read  together.  The  above  sections  of  "The  Assessment  Act" 
and  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918,"  being  read  together  the  term  "com- 
pany" takes  on  the  wider  significance  given  to  it  in  "The  Ontario  Telephone 
Act,"  Section  2  (b)  of  which  reads  as  follows: 

"2  (b)  "Company"  shall  include  an  incorporated  company,  municipal 
corporation,  commission,  association,  partnership,  individual  or 
aggregation  of  individuals  owning,  controlling  or  operating  or  who 
propose  to  own,  control  or  operate  a  telephone  system  or  line  within 
Ontario." 


32 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

With  this  gloss  "company"  as  used  in  section  79  of  "The  Assessment  Act" 
takes  on  a  meaning  wide  enough  to  include  an  individual  person  owning  and 
operating  a  telephone  system,  and  as  such  vested  with  a  right  of  appeal  from 
the  decision  or  judgment  of  the  County  Judge  under  section  79  of  "The  Assess- 
ment Act." 

The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  the  contention  of  the  Appellant  is  sound, 
and  that  his  appeal  is  warranted  in  law. 

The  sum  total  of  the  legislation  of  the  Provincial  Legislature  touching 
telephone  systems  is  to  be  found  in  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918,"  and  in 
sections  10  (1)  (k)  (as  to  business  assessment),  14,  15  and  79  of  "The  Assessment 
Act."  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918"  is  a  comprehensive  enactment 
dealing  with  telephone  systems  operated  as  public  utilities,  and  those  operated 
as  local  municipal  systems,  and  those  operated  by  incorporated  companies, 
individuals  and  co-partnerships.  In  fact  all  the  legislation  affecting  telephone 
systems  under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Pro^■incial  Legislature  is  to  be  found  in 
"The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,"  except  the  provisions  relating  to  the  taxation 
of  those  systems;  these  latter  are  contained  in  the  above  mentioned  sections  of 
"The  Assessment  Act."  The  Legislature  might,  if  it  had  chosen,  have  embodied 
these  taxing  provisions  in  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act."  Though  this  was 
not  done  it  seems  to  the  Board  that  in  view  of  the  identity  of  the  subjects  of 
legislation  it  is  proper  to  regard  these  enactments  as  in  pari  mate ria  and  to  read 
them  together,  and  thus  avoid  the  inequalities  and  inconsistencies  which 
would  otherwise  result. 

There  are  637  telephone  systems  operating  under  "The  Ontario  Telephone 
Act";  of  these  122  are  municipal  systems,  and  of  course  exempt  from  municipal 
taxation,  412  are  owned  and  operated  by  incorporated  companies,  and  103 
are  owned  and  operated  by  indi\'iduals  or  co-partnerships. 

If  the  contention  of  the  Respondent  prevails  the  103  telephone  systems 
operated  by  indi\'iduals  or  co-partnerships  will  not  be  assessed  under  section  14 
(the  telephone  tax  code),  but  under  the  general  tax  section,  being  section  5 
of  "The  Assessment  Act,"  and  such  systems  will  lose  the  preferential  treat- 
ment given  under  section  14  of  "The  Assessment  Act"  to  systems  operated  by 
incorporated  companies,  and  they  will  lose  the  right  of  appeal  to  this  Board 
under  section  79  of  "The  Assessment  Act,"  which  is  enjoyed  by  systems  operated 
by  incorporated  companies. 

Another  curious  anomaly  arises  from  the  Respondent's  contention,  in 
connection  with  the  business  assessment  of  telephone  systems.  By  section  10, 
subsection  (1),  paragraph  (k),  it  is  enacted  that  every  "person"  carrying  on  the 
business  of  a  telephone  company  ....  shall  be  assessed  for  a  sum  equal  to 
twenty-five  per  cent,  of  the  assessed  value  of  the  land  ....  occupied  or  used 
by  such  "person."  This  paragraph,  in  view  of  section  14,  subsection  (8),  of 
"The  Assessment  Act"  applies  only  to  the  portion  of  telephone  systems  in  a 
city,  town,  village  or  police  village.  By  force  of  "The  Interpretation  Act" 
(R.S.O.,  chap.  1,  section  29,  paragraph  (x),  the  word  "person"  includes  a  "body 
corporate,"  and  therefore  section  10,  subsection  (1).  paragraph  (k),  is  effective 
to  impose  the  business  tax  in  a  proper  case  on  a  telephone  system,  whether 
owned  and  operated  by  a  body  corporate  or  a  natural  person,  but  in  such  a 
case  if  the  Respondent's  contention  prevails  the  body  corporate  alone  has  the 
right  of  appeal  to  the  Board  if  dissatisfied  with  the  County  Judge's  decision 
on  an  assessment  appeal. 

It  seems  to  the  Board  that  a  construction  leading  to  such  anomalies  and 
inequalities  should  not  be  adopted  if  by  another  admissible  construction   a 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD  33 

conclusion  may  be  reached  which  will  remove  such  anomalies  and  inequalities. 
The  above  cited  section  of  "The  Assessment  Act"  and  "The  Ontario  Telephone 
Act"  are  enactments  in  pari  materia.  Such  being  the  case,  and  difficulty  having 
been  experienced  in  determining  the  precise  meaning  and  application  of  the 
above  sections  of  "The  Assessment  Act,"  it  is  permissible  to  look  to  "The  Ontario 
Telephone  Act"  to  remove  such  difficulty.  Looking  to  that  Act  it  is  found  that 
the  word  "company"  is  used  in  a  sense  wide  enough  to  include  natural  persons, 
and  interpreted  in  the  light  of  that  Act  the  use  of  the  word  "company"  occurring 
in  section  79  of  "The  Assessment  Act,"  having  this  wider  meaning  imputed  to  it, 
is  not  a  barrier  to  the  Appellant's  right  of  appeal.  By  this  procedure  all  difficulty 
of  interpretation  disappears,  the  inconsistencies  arising  under  the  Respondent's 
interpretation  are  harmonized,  and  all  telephone  systems  under  the  jurisdiction 
of  the  Province  are  treated  alike  in  respect  of  taxation  and  taxation  appeals. 

The  Board  was  referred  to  a  number  of  decisions  by  the  Respondent,  but 
none  of  them  seemed  precisely  in  point.  The  Board  invokes  a  rule  of  interpreta- 
tion as  old  as  Lord  Mansfield's  time,  and  adopted  and  cited  with  approval  in 
many  cases  since  his  jlay.  This  rule  is  thus  stated  in  Beal's  work  on  "Cardinal 
Rules  of  Legal  Interpretation,"  2nd  Ed.  at  p.  351:  "where  there  are  different 
statutes  in  pari  materia,  though  made  at  different  times  or  even  expired  or 
repealed,  and  not  referring  to  each  other,  and  though  using  different  language, 
they  shall  be  taken  and  interpreted  as  one  system  and  as  explanatory  of  each 
other." 

The  Board's  conclusion  is  that  the  Respondent's  preliminary  objection 
is  not  well  taken,  and  assuming  jurisdiction  the  Board  will  now  dispose  of  the 
material  issues  raised  by  the  appeal. 

The  Appellant's  telephone  system  extends  northerly  to  Tobermory  from 
the  Town  of  Wiarton.  The  portion  of  the  system  whose  assessment  is  in 
question  here  is  situated  in  the  Township  of  Eastnor,  and  its  constituent 
parts  may  be  summarized  as  follows: 

(a)  Eleven  miles  of  metallic  circuit  erected  upon  poles  and  forming  part  of  a 
connecting  line  between  the  central  exchange  switchboard  of  the  Appellant 
located  in  the  Village  of  Lion's  Head  and  the  central  exchange  switchboard 
of  The  Bell  Telephone  Company  of  Canada  located  in  the  Town  of  Wiarton, 
designated  in  the  Judgment  of  the  County  Judge  as  the  "East  Line." 

(b)  Thirteen  and  one-half  miles  of  ground  circuit  erected  upon  poles  the 
northern  end  of  which  terminates  upon  the  central  exchange  switchboard  of 
the  Appellant  located  in  the  Village  of  Lion's  Head  and  the  southern  end  of 
which  terminates  upon  a  three-way  switch  at  Hope  Bay,  the  valuation  of  which 
would  appear  to  be  included  in  the  Judgment  of  the  County  Judge  under  the 
designation  of  the  "East  Line." 

(c)  One-half  mile  of  ground  circuit  erected  upon  poles  forming  part  of  a 
line  the  southern  end  of  which  terminates  upon  the  central  exchange  switch- 
board located  in  the  Town  of  Wiarton  and  the  northern  end  of  which  terminates 
upon  a  three-way  switch  at  Hope  Bay,  the  valuation  of  which  would  appear  to 
be  included  in  the  Judgment  of  the  County  Judge  under  the  designation  of  the 
"East  Line." 

(d)  Nine  miles  of  ground  circuit  erected  upon  poles  forming  part  of  a 
connecting  line  between  the  central  exchange  switchboards  of  the  Appellant 
located  in  the  Villages  of  Lion's  Head  and  Tobermory  respectively,  and  designated 
in  the  Judgment  of  the  County  Judge  as  the  "Stokes  Bay  Line." 

(e)  Twelve  miles  of  ground  circuit  erected  upon  poles  forming  part  of  a 
line  the  northern  end  of  which  terminates  upon  the  central  exchange  switch-

board  of  the  Appellant  located  in  the  Village  of  Lion's  Head,  and  the  southern 
end  of  which  now  terminates  at  a  point  near  Beattie  in  the  Township  of  Albe- 
marle. The  southern  end  of  this  line  which  is  designated  in  the  judgment  of 
the  County  Judge  as  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  formerly  terminated  upon  a  three- 
way  switch  at  Mar  in  the  Township  of  Albemarle. 

(f)  Six  miles  of  ground  circuit  erected  upon  poles  forming  part  of  a  line  the 
southern  end  of  which  terminates  upon  the  central  exchange  switchboard  located 
in  the  Village  of  Lion's  Head  and  the  northern  end  of  which  terminates  at 
Wingfield's  Basin  near  Cabot  Head  in  the  Township  of  Lindsay,  designated  in 
the  judgment  of  the  County  Judge  as  the  "Dyer  Bay  Line." 

The  amount  of  the  assessment  from  which  the  Appellant  now  appeals  was 
fixed  by  the  Court  of  Revision  at  $1,800.00,  and  the  County  Judge  in  his 
judgment  dismissing  the  appeal  held  that  all  the  lines  indicated  herein  were

The  Appellant  is  appealing  from  the  decision  of  the  County  Judge  upon 
the  following  grounds : 

1.  That  the  lines  (b)  and  (c)  included  in  the  valuation  of  the  "East  Line" 
and  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  are  not  used  as  connecting  lines  between  two  or  more 
central  exchange  switchboards. 

2.  That  line  (f)  the  "Dyer  Bay  Line"  does  not  exceed  25  miles  in  length. 

3.  That  the  valuation  of  line  (a)  the  "East  Line"  and  line  (d)  the  "Stokes 
Bay  Line"  is  excessive. 

The  Appellant  was  represented  by  J.  Carlyle  Moore,  and  the  Respondent 
by  David  Robertson,  K.C.,  it  being  agreed  that  the  evidence  taken  before  the 
County  Judge  be  put  in  as  Exhibit  I,  and  that  further  oral  testimony  be  sub- 
mitted to  the  Board. 

Dealing  with  those  lines  in  regard  to  which  the  Appellant  claims  to  be  not 
used  as  connecting  lines  between  two  or  more  central  exchange  switchboards, 
and  therefore  exempt  from  assessment  as  provided  in  subsection  (4)  of  section  14 
of  "The  Assessment  Act,"  from  the  evidence  adduced  the  following  would 
appear  to  be  the  facts: 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 35 

Lines  (b)  and  (c)  ''East  Line." 

There  are  two  lines  of  poles  erected  parallel  with  each  other  upon  the  same 
highway,  except  for  a  distance  of  approximately  one-half  mile,  commencing  at 
the  Village  of  Lion's  Head,  passing  through  Hope  Bay  to  the  boundary  line 
between  the  Townships  of  Eastnor  and  Albemarle,  and  continuing  beyond 
the  said  boundary  line  to  the  Town  of  Wiarton.  One  line  of  these  poles  carries 
the  metallic  circuit  designated  herein  as  (a)  in  regard  to  which  the  only  point  in 
dispute  is  that  of  the  amount  at  which  it  should  be  assessed. 

The  line  designated  (b)  is  a  line  where  all  the  telephones  thereon,  to  the 
number  of  21,  are  operated  upon  the  same  circuit  and  terminates  upon  the  central 
exchange  switchboard  at  Lion's  Head. 

The  line  designated  (c)  is  a  line  where  all  the  telephones  thereon,  to  the 
number  of  20,  are  operated  upon  the  same  circuit  and  terminates  upon  the 
central  exchange  switchboard  of  the  Bell  Telephone  Company  at  Wiarton. 

Lines  (b)  and  (c)  run  into  the  house  of  A.  H.  Hepburn  at  Hope  Bay,  and 
are  connected  upon  a  three-way  switch  by  means  of  which  Mr.  Hepburn  may 
connect  his  telephone  with  either  line  or  may  connect  the  two  lines  together, 
thereby  making  one  continuous  circuit  between  Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton. 

It  is  contended  on  behalf  of  the  Respondent  because  of  the  fact  of  it  being 
possible  to  make  one  continuous  circuit  of  these  two  lines  by  means  of  the  switch 
at  Hope  Bay  that  these  lines  are  used  as  a  connecting  line  between  two  central 
exchange  switchboards.  The  evidence  on  this  point  is  that  while  the  lines 
have  been  used  for  through  calls  between  Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton  in  case  of 
emergency,  the  switch  was  put  in  for  the  accommodation  of  subscribers  on 
these  lines  to  enable  them  to  speak  to  each  other  through  this  switch  and  also 
to  either  Lion's  Head  or  Wiarton  instead  of  routing  these  messages  through 
the  two  central  exchange  switchboards  at  those  points. 

The  following  extracts  from  the  testimony  of  Miss  Ethel  Edwards,  the 
operator  in  charge  of  the  central  exchange  switchboard  at  Lion's  Head,  and 
Alex.  H.  Hepburn  of  Hope  Bay,  a  member  of  the  Council  of  the  Respondent 
municipality,  in  whose  residence  the  three-way  switch  referred  to  herein  is 
installed,  are  significant: 

Miss  Ethel  Edwards,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  72). 

i'Q, — Have  you  ever  put  calls  through  directly  from  Lion's  Head  to  Wiarton 
by  the  Hope  Bay  office? 

A. — I  have  put  about  two  in  seven  years. 

Q. — How  are  these  calls  put  through;  could  people  talk  right  from  Lion's 
Head  to  Wiarton? 

A. — No,  they  have  to  be  repeated  two  or  three  times  on  the  line  before 
they  get  to  the  right  party. 

Q. — Repeated  where? 

A. — I  have  to  repeat  from  my  party  to  Mr.  Hepburn,  and  he  has  to  repeat 
from  there  to  Wiarton. 

Q. — The  message  is  repeated,  or  relayed  at  Hope  Bav? 

A.— Yes." 

"To  the  Chairman  (page  74); 

Q. — These  supplementary  lines  to  the  trunk  line  were  not  used  com- 
mercially? 

A. — No,  not  for  commercial  messages. 

Q. — Merely  during  emergencies  when  something  happened  on  the  line,  Mr. 
Gillies  would  use  it? 

A.— Yes. 


36 THE  REPORT  OF  THE Xo.  24 

Q- — You  depended  on  the  trunk  line  for  carrying  messages  from  Lion's 
Head  to  the  other  places? 

A. — That  is  the  only  line  I  am  supposed  to  use  for  messages;  that  is  my 
instructions  and  that  is  the  way  I  carry  them  out. 

Q- — In  the  case  of  repairs  you  can  only  recall  two  in  seven  years? 

A. — Yes,  that  is  all." 

"Alex.  H.  Hepburn,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  63): 

Q. — The  switch  at  Hope  Bav  is  in  vour  house? 

A.— Yes. 

Q. — Did  you  ever  use  that  switch  for,  through  business  between  Lion's 
Head  and  Wiarton? 

A. — We  have  in  the  case  of  emergency. 

Q- — How  long  ago  is  the  last  occasion? 

A. — I  could  not  tell  you. 

Q. — Would  there  be  any  in  1923? 

A. — I  could  not  say  just  what  year,  there  has  been  once  or  twice  a  call  put 
through. 

Q. — Once  or  twice  in  how  long? 
A. — I  am  speaking  of  three  years. 
Q. — Once  or  twice  in  three  years? 
A.— Yes. 

Q. — In  case  of  emergency,  what  do  you  mean? 
A. — The  main  line  was  out  by  accident,  by  wind  or  sleet. 
Q- — Can  you  talk  right  through,  or  is  the  message  relayed? 
A. — Not  very  well. 
Q. — What  do  you  do? 

A. — Usually  we  exchange  the  message  at  Hope  Bay. 

Q- — Supposing  a  message  going  from  Wiarton  to  Lion's  Head,  you  would 
take  the  message  from  Wiarton  Central  and  then  repeat  it  to  the  Lion's  Head 
Central? 

A.— Yes. 

Q- — That  is  the  way  anv  business  goes  through? 

A.— Yes." 

Line  (e)  Pike  Bay  Line. 

According  to  the  evidence  of  the  Appellant  up  to  some  four  or  five  years 
ago  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  formed  part  of  a  connecting  line  between  the  central 
exchange  switchboard  in  Lion's  Head  and  the  central  exchange  switchboard  in 
Wiarton.  The  Appellant  about  that  time  purchased  from  the  Great  North- 
western Telegraph  Company  a  line  of  poles  with  one  wire  between  Wiarton 
and  Tobermory  via  Lion's  Head,  and  converted  the  southern  portion  of  it  into 
a  connecting  line  between  Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton,  this  portion  being  now 
known  as  the  "East  Line,"  a  second  wire  having  since  been  erected  on  these 
poles  in  order  to  make  the  circuit  metallic. 

The  Appellant  also  states  that  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  being  no  longer  required 
as  a  connecting  line  between  Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton  it  was  cut  into  two 
portions,  the  southern  portion  being  converted  into  a  line  where  all  the  telephones, 
to  the  number  of  16,  are  operated  upon  the  same  circuit  terminating  upon  the 
central  exchange  switchboard  at  Wiarton.  The  northern  portion  was  con- 
verted into  a  line  where  all  the  telephones,  to  the  number  of  16,  are  operated 
upon  the  same  circuit,  terminating  upon  the  central  exchange  switchboard 
at  Lion's  Head.     These  two  lines  ran  into  the  store  of  James  T.  Bartley,  at 


1926 RAILWAY  AXD  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 37 

Mar  in  the  Township  of  Albemarle  where  they  were  connected  upon  a  three-way 
switch,  the  physical  conditions  of  these  lines  being  identical  with  those  of  lines 
(b)  and  (c)  at  Hope  Bay  already  referred  to  herein.  This  switch  was  removed 
by  the  Appellant  in  July,  1924,  and  Mr.  Bartley's  store  having  since  been  de- 
stroyed by  fire  that  portion  of  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  between  Mar  and  a  point 
immediately  north  of  Beattie  as  shown  on  the  plan  marked  Exhibit  II,  being 
abandoned.  It  is,  however,  contended  on  behalf  of  the  Respondent  that  up 
to  the  time  the  switch  was  removed  from  Bartley's  store  the  two  lines  referred 
to  were  used  as  a  connecting  line  between  two  or  more  central  exchange  switch- 
boards. The  evidence  upon  this  point  is  of  a  similar  nature  to  that  in  respect 
of  lines  (b)  and  (c)  at  Hope  Bay,  the  following  being  extracts  from  the  testimony 
of  the  Appellant,  Miss  Ethel  Edwards  and  James  T.  Bartley  in  whose  store 
the  switch  was  installed. 

William  Gillies,  cross-examined  by  Mr.  Robertson  (pages  26-27): 

Q. — That  line,  on  the  31st  December,  1923,  was  still  in  existence  through 
Spry  and  Mar  to  Wiarton? 

A.— Yes. 

Q. — And  that  line  on  the  31st  December,  1923,  was  still  there? 

A. — Yes. 

Q. — There  was  a  switch  on  the  line  uniting  it  both  from  the  north  and  south 
at  Bartley's  store? 

A. — Yes. 

Q. — That  store  has  latelv  been  destroved  by  fire? 

A.— Yes. 

Q. — That  was  at  Mar? 

A.— Yes. 

Q. — And  the  telephones  from  the  north  were,  until  the  last  assessment, 
connected  with  Wiarton  by  that  line? 

A. — Yes,  they  can  be  connected  now  in  a  way. 

Q. — And  any  time  it  was  closed,  the  eastern  line  was  out  of  order,  j'ou  used 
that  line  regularly  from  Lion's  Head  to  Wiarton? 

A. — Not  regularly,  but  we  could  work  it  through  all  right." 

"To  the  Chairman  (pages  28-29): 

Q- — What  was  the  condition  of  that  line  years  ago  when  it  was  first  opened? 

A. — That  was  my  trunk  line. 

Q. — There  is  no  doubt  about  that? 

A.— No. 

Q. — It  was  between  two  exchanges? 

A. — Yes,  it  was  at  that  time. 

Q. — W^hen  did  it  cease  to  be  a  through  line? 

A. — When  I  built  the  rural  line,  subscribers  wanted  to  come  on  and  I  had 
to  load  it  down  with  subscribers  in  the  Townships  of  Eastnor  and  Albemarle, 
and  I  saw  a  chance  to  buy  the  Great  North  West  Telegraph  Line,  and  I  bought 
it  and  converted  it  into  my  trunk  line  and  converted  this  through  line  into  a 
rural  line,  and  then  I  started  by  way  of  a  little  switch  to  divide  the  lines,  and 
this  end  (Wiarton)  from  Bartley's  store  is  metallic,  and  the  other  end  (Lion's 
Head)  a  ground  circuit;  the  same  wires  and  poles  are  there  that  were  built  in 
1901. 

Q. — When  did  it  cease  to  be  a  trunk  line? 
A. — About  four  or  five  years  ago." 
"To  Mr.  Robertson  (page  29): 


38 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

Q. — Then  for  four  or  five  years  you  have  used  it  for  messages  from  Lion's 
Head  to  Wiarton? 

A. — Yes,  I  put  that  Httle  switch  there  that  you  could  connect  through  when 
our  main  line  got  out  of  commission  and  our  operator  would  put  a  call  through 
there  and  we  would  accommodate  our  customers  by  putting  the  calls  through 
till  our  main  line  was  in  commission." 

"Re-examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  48): 

Q. — Did  any  message  go  through  from  Lion's  Head  to  Wiarton  by  Hartley's 
switch  in  1923? 

A. — rNot  from  Lion's  Head,  we  never  do  put  calls  through  there;  it  is  hard 
to  swear  positively  when  I  am  not  sure. 

Q. — Do  you  know  of  any  call  going  through  from  Lion's  Head  to  Wiarton 
by  Hartley's  switch  during  1922  or  1923? 

A.— No,  I  don't  know  about  1922. 

Q. — Do  you  know  of  any  calls  going  through  from  north  of  Hartley's  store 
to  south  of  Hartley's  store  through  that  switch  in  1923? 

A. — No,  there  are  no  calls  going  through. 

Q.— Was  there  in  1923? 

A. — Not  to  my  knowledge. 

Q. — Do  you  know  whether  the  switch  was  used  habitually  for  that  purpose? 

A. — No,  it  was  not." 

Miss  Ethel  Edwards,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  14,  Exhibit  1): 

"1.  Are  you  in  charge  of  the  Gillies  Telephone  Svstem  Central  at  Lion's 
Head? 

A.— Yes. 

2.  How  long  have  you  been  there? 
A. — Six  years. 

3.  Have  you  at  any  time  in  the  past  put  messages  through  from  Lion's  Head 
to  Wiarton  through  Mar? 

A.— No. 

4.  At  any  time  during  the  six  years  you  have  been  there? 

A. — I  may  have  put  a  couple  through  at  the  time  of  the  storm  when  the 
main  line  was  out  of  order;  that  is  two  years  or  more  ago. 

5.  I  am  speaking  of  the  Mar  line? 
A. — Yes,  that  is  the  Mar  line. 

6.  When  would  be  the  last  time  that  has  been  used  between  Lion's 
Head  and  Wiarton  by  Mar? 

A. — I  couldn't  say  exactly. 

7.  Could  you  say  whether  it  was  used  in  1923? 

A. — No,  they  never  got  through  that  switch.  We  could  talk  to  Mr.  Hartley, 
but  he  couldn't  ring  or  talk  through  that  switch  for  over  a  3^ear. 

8.  For  the  current  year  1923,  do  you  know  whether  you  put  through  any 
calls? 

A. — No,  I  didn't  put  any  through  in  1923. 

9.  Did  you  try  to  put  any  through  in  1923? 
A.— No,  not  by  Mar. 

10.  Have  you  ever  used  habitually  that  line  as  a  connecting  line 
between  Wiarton  and  Lion's  Head  exchanges? 

A.— No." 

"Miss  Ethel  Edwards,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  72): 
Q. — You  are  the  operator  in  charge  of  the  Gillies  Telephone  System  at 
Lion's  Head? 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 39 

A. — Yes. 

Q. — You  gave  evidence  before  the  County  Judge  on  Mr.  Gillies  appeal 
against  the  assessment  in  Eastnor"-' 

A.— Yes. 

Q. — What  vou  said  on  that  occasion  still  holds  good? 

A.— Yes."  ' 

Q. — Have  you  ever  put  through  a  message  directly  from  Lion's  Head  to 
Hope  Bay  by  Bartley's?  (this  should  be  to  Wiarton  via  Bartley's). 

A. — No,  I  don't  think  I  ever  put  one  through  that  way  at  all,  not  that  I 
can  remember." 

"Cross-examined  by  Mr.  Robertson  (page  74): 

Q, — You  say  as  a  matter  of  fact  that  no  messages  were  put  through  Mar 
from  Lion's  Head? 

A. — I  don't  remember  any." 

"James  T.  Bartley:     To  the  Chairman  (page  107): 

Q. — Could  you  tell  whether  they  came  through  the  Lion's  Head  exchange 
and  then  through  your  switch  and  then  on  to  Wiarton? 

A. — No,  I  could  not  tell  that." 

"To  Mr.  Robertson  (pages  107  and  108): 

Q. — These  people  at  Spry  and  around  there  would  be  on  the  line  from 
Lion's  Head  to  Mar,  would  they  not? 

A. — I  don't  know  how  that  line  runs  up  there.  I  know  one  line  went  to  Spry. 

Q. — The  people  that  were  on  that  line  from  Lion's  Head  to  Spry  are  the 
people  I  was  asking  about;   they  could  telephone,  as  you  say? 

A. — I  would  say  they  could.  If  it  was  handy  for  them  to  go  around  by 
Lion's  Head  they  went  that  way. 

Q. — If  not,  they  went  by  you,  it  would  depend  on  how  far  north  they  were? 

A. — I  did  not  ask  them  who  they  were;  they  would  call  me  up  and  ask  if 
they  could  get  through  to  Wiarton,  and  I  opened  the  switch. 

Q. — Would  the  same  apply  to  the  Lion's  Head  Central? 

A. — Yes,  they  could  get  through  to  Wiarton  too,  when  the  line  was  out  of 
commission  they  would  call  up  and  want  me  to  put  them  through  in  that  way," 

"To  the  Chairman: 

Q. — How  often  was  that  done? 

A. — Not  very  often,  sometimes  when  there  was  a  storm. 

Q. — It  was  not  used  commercially  as  a  vehicle  for  communication  between 
Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton? 

A. — No,  just  the  operator  at  Lion's  Head  would  call  through. 

Q. — You  would  not  know  who  the  person  was  who  wanted  to  get  through? 

A.— No." 

"To  the  \^ice-Chairman: 

Q. — What  do  you  mean  by  "not  very  often".-' 

A. — Only  when  there  was  a  storm,  or  something  got  wrong  with  the  line, 
once  a  month,  or  may  be  once  in  six  months,  I  did  not  keep  any  track  of  that." 

The  evidence  of  Mr.  Thomas  H.  Ashley,  Special  Representative  of  the  Bell 
Telephone  Company,  is  to  the  effect  that  he  would  not  consider  that  either 
lines  (b)  and  (c)  or  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  (e)  were  used  as  connecting  lines  between 
two  central  exchange  switchboards,  his  testimony  in  part  being  as  follows: 

"Mr.  T.  H.  Ashley,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (pages  86-87): 

Q. — In  the  ordinary  meaning  are  they  lines  connecting  two  or  more  central 
exchange  switchboards? 

A. — No,  sir. 


40  THE  REPORT  OF  THE  No.  24 

Q. — Even  with  the  switch  in  such  a  position  that  you  can  talk  through  it? 

A. — No,  and  if  we  knew  it  we  would  order  the  switch  to  be  removed ;  because 
they  are  separate  lines." 

"Mr.  T.  H.  Ashley,  cross-examined  by  Mr.  Robertson  (page  87): 

Q. — As  you  said  originally,  if  that  switch  at  Hope  Bay  or  at  Mar  was  con- 
nected, the  two  lines  then,  as  a  matter  of  actual  fact,  would  make  a  connection 
between  Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton? 

A. — There  would  be  continuous  circuit,  and  the  subscribers  on  either  side 
of  the  switch  could  speak  to  the  other  subscriber. 

Q. — And  people  at  Lion's  Head  could  talk  to  Wiarton,  and  Wiarton  to 
Lion's  Head? 

A. — It  would  not  be  commercial,  that  is  a  dead  certainty." 

The  Board  is  of  opinion  that  there  is  nothing  in  the  evidence  submitted  to 
justify  the  conclusion  that  lines  (b)  and  (c)  when  connected  at  Hope  Bay,  or 
that  the  "Pike  Bay  Line"  (e)  when  connected  through  the  switch  at  Mar,  are 
liable  to  assessment  as  lines  used  as  connecting  lines  between  two  or  more  central 
exchange  switchboards.  In  fact,  no  evidence  has  been  submitted  in  proof  of 
the  suggestion  that  even  as  an  emergency  a  subscriber  connected  upon  the 
central  exchange  switchboard  at  Lion's  Head  has  ever  carried  on  a  direct  con- 
versation through  either  the  switch  at  Hope  Bay  or  the  switch  at  Mar  with  a 
subscriber  connected  upon  the  central  exchange  switchboard  at  Wiarton  or 
vice  versa. 

In  regard  to  line  (f),  designated  the  "Dyer  Bay  Line,"  the  Board  is  of 
opinion  that  in  view  of  the  provisions  of  subsection  (4)  of  section  14  of  "The 
Assessment  Act,"  which  requires  that  the  wires  of  every  line  "in  a  township" 
which  does  not  exceed  twenty-five  miles  in  length  shall  not  be  included  in  the 
computation  of  the  Assessor,  this  line  is  also  not  liable  to  assessment.  It  is  clear 
that  whatever  may  be  the  total  mileage  of  this  line,  that  part  of  it  which  is  within 
the  Township  of  Eastnor  does  not  exceed  twenty-five  miles  in  length. 

In  regard  to  the  "East  Line"  (a)  and  the  "Stokes  Bay  Line"  (d),  the  Appel- 
lant admits  these  lines  to  be  assessable,  but  he  contends  that  the  valuation 
placed  thereon  by  the  County  Judge  is  excessive.  Three  witnesses  testified  on 
behalf  of  the  Appellant  as  to  the  value  of  these  lines  before  the  County  Judge 
and  also  before  the  Board,  namely:  Alex.  H.  Hepburn,  a  member  of  the  Council 
of  the  Respondent  Municipality,  and  Edward  Wardrop.  Both  these  witnesses 
have  worked  intermittently  upon  the  lines  of  the  Appellant  for  a  number  of 
years,  and  claim  to  have  a  thorough  knowledge  of  the  physical  conditions  of 
the  poles  and  wires.  The  third  witness  was  William  C.  Eraser,  a  telephone 
expert  and  contractor  of  Owen  Sound,  who  had  been  in  the  employ  of  the  Bell 
Telephone  Company  for  twenty  years,  during  two  or  three  years  of  which  period 
he  was  in  charge  of  the  maintenance  of  the  Company's  lines  in  the  Counties  of 
Grey  and  Bruce. 

The  evidence  of  these  witnesses  is  in  part  as  follows: 

"Alex.  H.  Hepburn,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (pages  24-25,  Exhibit  I): 

64.  You  are  still  under  oath,  Mr.  Hepburn? 
A.— Yes. 

65.  Are  you  familiar  with  the  present  metallic  circuit  line  between  Lion's 
Head  and  Wiarton? 

A. — I  have  worked  on  it  several  times. 

66.  Do  you  know  the  condition  of  that  line? 
A. — Pretty  well. 

67.  Can  you  place  a  present  valuation  on  that  line  per  mile? 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 41 

A. — I  don't  know  about  the  wire.  I  can  place  a  valuation  on  the  poles. 
I  had  nothing  to  do  with  the  wire. 

68.  What  would  be  your  valuation  of  the  poles  that  are  there  now  on  that 
metallic  circuit  line? 

A. — Taking  those  poles  in  the  condition  they  are  in  I  wouldn't  care  to 
value  the  poles  at  more  than  fifty  cents  a  piece. 

69.  Why  do  you  say  that? 

A. — For  one  reason  the  poles  have  been  there  for  thirty-eight  years,  and 
they  are  sap-rotted,  rotten  at  the  bottom  and  will  break  off. 

70.  What  do  you  mean  by  sap-rot? 

A.— There  is  half  an  inch  sap  rot  on  each  pole  and  that  is  rotted  off.  The 
poles  are  split  with  the  sun,  too.  I  wouldn't  care  to  value  them  at  more  than 
fifty  cents  a  piece. 

7L  As  they  stand  now? 

A— Yes. 

72.  Have  some  of  them  been  reset? 

A. — Those  that  fell  down  have  been  cut  off  and  reset,  the  rotten  bottoms. 

73.  Are  the  poles  the  only  part  of  the  equipment  you  know  about? 

A. — I  have  taken  off  some  of  the  tie  wires  and  they  are  rusted.  The  gal- 
vanizing is  off  the  wires  where  they  were  tied. 

74.  Do  you  know  anything  about  the  condition  of  the  No.  9  wire? 

A. — The  No.  9,  that  is  the  heavy  wire;  it  was  rusted  where  the  connections 
were  made. 

75.  What  is  its  present  condition  now? 

A. — The  wire  itself  is  pretty  good,  but  the  connections  are  rusted. 

76.  Do  you  mean  where  it  comes  in  contact  with  the  insulators  and  the 
wire  is  on  to  tie  it? 

A.— Yes. 

77.  Do  you  think  that  wire  is  as  efficient  now  as  when  it  was  put  up? 
A. — No,  I  don't  think  so." 

"Edward  Wardrop,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  35,  Exhibit  I): 
5.  Are  you  familiar  then  with  the  metallic  circuit  line  from  Wiarton  to 
Lion's  Head? 
A. — Yes,  sir. 

6.'  Do  you  know  the  condition  of  that  line? 
A. — Pretty  well. 

7.  Are  you  able  to  form  any  estimate  of  the  present  actual  value  of  that 
line  per  mile? 

A. — Well,  I  couldn't  just  say  off-handed,  but  I  would  say  about  $45.00 
per  mile,  the  shape  it  is  in. 

8.  You  say  "the  shape  it  is  in."     What  is  its  condition? 
A. — Well,  it  would  want  a  new  set  of  poles. 

9.  By  a  new  set  do  you  mean  every  pole  renewed? 
A. — Ninety  per  cent,  of  them. 

10.  You  think  ninety  per  cent,  of  the  poles  ought  to  be  renewed? 
A. — Ninety  per  cent,  ought  to  be  renewed. 

11.  For  what  reason? 

A. — Because  they  are  rotten. 

12.  Rotted  from  what  cause? 
A.— Old  age. 

13.  How  old  do  you  think  these  poles  are? 


42 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

A. — They  were  there  long  before  I  was  here,  thirty-eight,  thirty-nine  or 
forty  years;  that  is  what  they  tell  me.  I  don't  know;  they  were  there  before 
I  was  born. 

14.  From  the  present  condition  of  the  poles,  do  you  believe  they  are  that 
old? 

A.— I  do. 

15.  What  would  be  your  estimate  of  the  present  value  per  pole,  or  the 
average  of  the  poles  used  in  that  line,  the  actual  value  now? 

A. — Standing  where  they  are? 

16.  Yes,  standing  where  they  are? 
A. — About  forty  cents." 

"William  C.  Eraser,  examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (pages  26-27,  Exhibit  I): 

6.  Are  you  familiar  with  the  metallic  circuit  between  here  and  Wiarton? 
A. — From  what  I  seen  of  driving  up  and  down. 

7.  Have  you  made  any  inspection  of  it? 

A. — Simply  what  I  could  see  driving  along  the  road. 

8.  Is  that  sufficient  inspection? 

A. — What  I  have  seen  to-day  compared  with  other  systems. 

9.  You  have  seen  this  line  in  addition  in  previous  years? 
A. — Yes,  other  times  I  have  been  up  here. 

10.  What  would  be  your  valuation  per  mile  of  the  metallic  line  as  it  is 
to-day  between  Lion's  Head  and  Wiarton? 

A. — The  valuation  I  put  on  it  from  what  I  know  of  other  companies  and 
lines  that  can  be  actually  bought,  I  wouldn't  go  above  forty  dollars  a  mile. 

11.  What  do  you  say  as  to  the  condition  of  the  poles  on  that  line? 
A. — They  are  in  very  poor  shape." 

"Examined  by  Mr.  Moore  (page  29,  Exhibit  I): 

21.  Then  what  do  you  say  as  to  the  present  value  of  the  poles  on  the  metallic 
circuit  line? 

A. — Twenty  per  cent,  of  those  poles — 

22.  Of  course,  we  want  the  average  value.  There  may  be  a  new  pole  here 
and  there? 

A. — I  wouldn't  put  a  value  of  much  more  than  fifty  cents  per  pole  as  they 
stand  now. 
His  Honour: 

23.  That  includes  digging  the  hole  and  putting  them  in? 

A. — That  is  the  cost  I  would  value  the  poles  at  as  they  stand  now,  if  I 
were  buying  the  system." 

Two  witnesses  testified  as  to  value  on  behalf  of  the  Respondent,  namely> 
Norman  C.  Jones,  Superintendent  of  the  Bruce  Municipal  Telephone  System, 
operating  between  Port  Elgin  and  Kincardine,  and  James  J.  Tyson,  lumber 
dealer,  Wiarton.  The  first  witness  admitted  he  had  no  experience  in  con- 
structing lines  on  the  Bruce  Peninsula,  and  his  evidence  being  confined  to  the 
cost  of  construction  of  the  Bruce  Municipal  Telephone  System,  it  is  of  little  or 
no  assistance  in  arriving  at  a  proper  valuation  of  the  Appellant's  property. 
The  witness  was  not  questioned  as  to  the  value  of  the  lines  under  consideration. 
The  evidence  of  Mr.  Tyson  was  to  the  efifect  that  a  fair  price  for  poles  to  suit 
the  specifications  of  the  Bell  Telephone  Company  or  the  telegraph  people  would 
be:  for  20  to  22  feet,  $1.15;  for  25  feet  with  5-inch  top,  $1.40.  This  witness 
admitted,  however,  that  the  poles  of  which  the  Appellant's  lines  were  con- 
structed would  not  comply  with  these  specifications,  his  evidence  in  part  being 
as  follows: 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 43 

"James  J.  Tyson,  cross-examined  by  Air.  Moore  (pages  112-113): 

Q. — You  have  been  over  the  roads  on  which  Mr.  Gillies'  lines  are  con- 
structed a  good  many  times? 

A. — Yes. 

Q. — Have  you  ever  seen  a  first-class  pole  on  it  from  here  to  Tobermory? 

A. — I  never  paid  very  much  attention  to  the  poles.  It  was  not  the  poles 
that  I  was  observing,  but  it  was  after  a  heavy  electric  storm,  and  I  think  I  saw 
ten  or  fifteen  poles  split,  fresh  splits;  I  was  not  looking  for  the  quality  of  the 
poles. 

Q. — Have  you  seen  or  observed  any  first-class  pole  on  his  line  from  here  to 
Tobermory?     A  pole  that  would  be  according  to  these  specifications? 

A. — Yes,  I  saw  one. 

Q. — Where  was  it? 

A. — Just  the  other  side  of  Barrow  Ba3\ 

Q. — That  is  the  only  one? 

A. — The  only  one  I  can  recall,  a  good  big  pole. 

Q. — How  would  you  describe  the  class  of  pole  that  the  Gillies  line  used? 

A. — They  are  an  inferior  lot  of  poles,  the  ones  that  I  have  seen. 

Q. — Can  you  say.  generally  speaking,  what  poles  of  that  class  would  be 
worth  ? 

A. — A  big  percentage  of  them  I  would  not  put  into  poles  at  all,  I  would 
cut  them  up  into  posts  and  ties. 

Q. — People  buying  first-class  poles  would  call  them  culls  and  refuse  to  take 
them? 

A. — They  would  cull  them  as  poles. 

Q. — ^After  thev  were  culled  thev  would  have  no  commercial  value? 

A.— Yes. 

Q. — As  poles? 

A.— No. 

Q. — If  you  sold  a  car  load  of  poles  you  would  not  get  anything  for  the  culls? 

A. — Generally  work  them  in  as  posts." 

Subsection  (3)  of  Section  14  of  "The  Assessment  Act"  provides  that  "where 
a  local  telephone  system  does  not  operate  generally  throughout  Ontario"  its 
lines  shall  be  assessed  at  their  "actual  value."  The  term  "actual  value"  can- 
not be  interpreted  as  meaning  "replacement  value,"  or  value  based  upon  what 
the  value  would  be  at  present-day  prices  if  all  the  constituent  parts  were  new, 
but  rather  the  actual  cash  value  of  these  lines  as  the  same  would  be  appraised 
upon  a  sale  to  another  person,  company  or  municipality  for  the  purpose  of  con- 
tinuing to  operate  them  as  a  telephone  system.  The  Assessor,  who  would 
appear  to  be  the  only  person  who  could  throw  any  light  upon  the  method  or 
principle  adopted  in  assessing  these  lines,  was  not  called  upon  to  testify,  there- 
fore the  Board  must  rely  upon  the  evidence  submitted  by  those  witnesses  who, 
from  a  knowledge  of  local  conditions  and  by  their  qualifications,  are  most  com- 
petent to  express  an  opinion  upon  the  subject.  These  witnesses  are  the  Appel- 
lant, W^illiam  C.  Fraser  and  James  J.  Tyson.  The  i\ppellant  claims  the  value 
of  the  line  (a),  which  is  a  metallic  circuit,  to  be  S50.00  per  mile  and  that  of 
line  (d),  a  ground  circuit,  to  be  $40.00  per  mile.  The  witness,  Fraser,  who  by 
reason  of  his  long  period  of  service  with  the  Bell  Telephone  Company  and  his 
present  occupation  as  a  contractor  in  the  telephone  business,  is  better  qualified 
to  form  an  unbiased  and  accurate  opinion  as  to  the  value  of  these  lines  than  any 
other  witness,  stated  that,  from  what  he  knew  "of  other  companies  and  lines 
that  can  be  actually  bought,  I  wouldn't  go  above  forty  dollars  a  mile."     The 


44 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

evidence  of  Mr.  Tyson  was  confirmatory  of  the  fact  that  the  poles  which  carried 
these  lines  could  not  be  valued  at  the  market  price  of  poles  of  the  same  sizes 
which  would  comply  with  the  specifications  of  the  Bell  Telephone  Company  or 
the  "telegraph  people." 

For  the  reasons  aforesaid,  the  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that,  upon  the  evidence 
submitted,  the  actual  value  of  line  (a)  should  be  placed  at  $50.00  per  mile,  or 
$550.00,  and  that  of  line  (d)  at  $40.00  per  mile,  or  $360.00. 

The  appeal  will  be  allowed  and  the  assessment  of  lines  (b),  (c),  (e)  and  (f) 
should  be  struck  off  the  rolls  and  the  assessment  complained  of  reduced  to  the 
amount  of  $910.00. 

There  will  be  no  costs  to  either  party,  but  the  Respondent  will  pay  $10.00  in 
law  stamps.

1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 49 

Procedure  File  9671 

In  the  matter  of  the  expropriation  by  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of 
Kitchener,  under  the  provisions  of  "The  PubUc  Health  Act,"  and  amendments 
thereto,  for  the  construction,  operation  and  maintenance  of  a  sewage  disposal 
plant  and  for  a  right-of-way  to  carry  a  combined  trunk  sewer,  of  part  of  the 
lands  of  Margaret  Campbell,  situate  and  being  parts  of  Lots  "A,"  "B,"  "C" 
and  "D,"  according  to  Registered  Plan  Number  40,  in  the  Township  of  Waterloo 
in  the  County  of  Waterloo,  as  described  in  the  Order  of  the  Ontario  Railway  and 
Municipal  Board,  dated  the  3rd  day  of  September,  A.D.  1924; 

And  in  the  matter  of  the  compensation  for  the  said  lands  and  for  injury 
and  damages. 

Jan.  13th.  Hearing,  pursuant  to  appointment,  11.45  a.m.  to  5  p.m.,  at 
City  Hall,  Kitchener.     Judgment  reserved. 

Feb.  12th.     Judgment  and  Award  delivered. 

Reasons  of  the  Board 

This  is  an  application  by  Margaret  Campbell,  of  the  Township  of  Waterloo, 
married  woman,  under  and  pursuant  to  "The  Public  Health  ^^.ct,"  and  amend- 
ments thereto,  to  fix  the  compensation  to  which  she  is  entitled  for  the  lands  so 
expropriated,  and  for  injury  and  damages. 

The  Board,  according  to  appointment,  held  a  hearing  at  the  City  Hall  in 
the  City  of  Kitchener  on  Tuesday,  the  13th  day  of  January,  A.D.  1925,  at  which 
all  parties  interested  herein  were  heard. 

The  quantity  of  land  expropriated  is  said  to  be  12.1109  acres,  and  the  date 
of  the  expropriation  of  the  said  lands  is  the  15th  day  of  September,  A.D.  1924. 

On  the  15th  September,  A.D.  1924,  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Kitchener 
offered  to  pay  the  said  Margaret  Campbell  (the  Claimant)  the  sum  of  $1,211.09 
as  compensation  for  the  land  being  expropriated  or  injuriously  affected.  This 
offer  was  refused  by  the  aforementioned  Margaret  Campbell  on  the  15th  October, 
A.D.  1924,  and  the  sum  of  $15,500.00  was  asked  as  estimated  and  defined  under 
the  headings  (a),  (b),  (c),  (d)  and  (e)  in  Exhibit  "C"  filed  herein. 

After  having  had  a  view  of  the  land  in  question,  and  after  taking  some 
evidefice,  it  was  mutually  agreed  between  the  parties  that  the  Corporation  of 
the  City  of  Kitchener  is  to  pay  the  Claimant  the  sum  of  $500.00  in  full  settle- 
ment of  claims  (c),  (d)  and  (e)  instead  of  the  sum  of  $3,300.00  as  set  out  therein; 
that  the  solicitors  acting  for  each  party  were  to  prepare  a  clause  for  submission 
to  the  Board,  which  would  correctly  embody  the  substance  of  what  was  agreed 
to  at  the  hearing  in  order  that  the  same  may  be  included  in  the  Judgment  and 
Award  of  the  Board. 

The  following  paragraphs,  numbered  six  to  ten,  inclusive,  were  prepared 
and  agreed  to  by  the  parties  herein  in  lieu  of  paragraphs  (c),  (d)  and  (e): 

"6.  The  City  Corporation  is  to  erect  and  maintain  fences  separating  that 
part  of  the  land  expropriated  as  defined  on  attached  plan  by  a  line  of  yellow 
x's,  such  fences  to  be  so  constructed  as  to  be  lawful  fences,  and  in  compliance 
with  any  fence  By-laws  of  the  Township  of  Waterloo  in  force  from  time  to  time 
for  farm  purposes. 

"7.  The  said  Corporation  shall  construct  and  maintain  a  gate  in  each  fence 
enclosing  the  roadway  expropriated  at  a  point  marked  in  yellow  and  indicated 
on  the  attached  plan  and  a  proper  crossing  at  said  gates,  the  said  gates  to  be 
for  the  purpose  of  providing  the  owner  of  the  farm  a  right-of-way  across  the 
said  roadway  and  access  to  and  egress  from  the  portion  of  the  land  severed  from 


50 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

the  farm,  so  long  as  any  of  such  severed  portion  is  owned  with  and  used  as  part 
of  the  said  farm. 

"8.  The  said  gates  above  mentioned  and  crossing  to  be  maintained  in  good 
repair  by  the  said  Corporation  so  long  as  there  is  a  common  owner  of  both  por- 
tions of  the  said  farm  property  severed  by  the  said  roadway. 

"9.  The  said  Corporation  shall  also  construct  a  twelve-foot  right-of-way 
and  roadway  outside  of  said  fence,  as  shown  in  yellow  broken  lines  on  said  plan, 
and  the  owner  of  the  said  farm  or  of  the  portion  thereof  lying  southeast  of  the 
land  expropriated  is  to  have  the  right  to  use  such  roadway  and  right-of-way  at 
all  times  for  the  purpose  of  access  to  and  egress  from  that  portion  of  the  farm 
fronting  on  the  Grand  River,  and  such  right-of-way  or  roadway  to  be  con- 
structed with  a  grade  of  not  more  than  six  per  cent. 

"10.  The  said  roadway  and  right-of-way  shall  be  maintained  and  continue 
so  long  as  the  land  lying  to  the  southeast  of  the  expropriated  land  is  used  for 
farming  purposes." 

This  left  the  following  two  paragraphs  (a)  and  (b)  of  the  claim  to  be  decided 
by  the  Board,  namely: 

"(a)  The  present  market  value  of  the  portion  of  the  said  land  taken  for 
the  said  plant,  estimated  at  the  price  of  $400.00  an  acre,  to  which  should  be 
added  the  value  of  the  deposit  of  gravel  and  gravel  pit  on  part  of  the  land  taken, 
for  supplying  material  for  road  and  street  construction  and  other  cement  work, 
the  sum  of  say  $516.00,  in  all  amounting  to  §5,360.00." 

"(b)  General  damages  for  loss  and  depreciation  in  value  of  the  remainder  of 
the  said  farm,  containing  about  76  acres  of  land  for  farming,  or  for  building  lots, 
estimated  at  30  per  cent.,  or  about  $90.00  per  acre,  for  loss  and  damage,  amount- 
ing to  $6,840.00." 

Archibald  B.  Campbell  (husband  of  the  owner),  called  by  Counsel  for  the 
Claimant,  testified  that  the  deed  of  the  land  covered  88  acres,  which  was  pur- 
chased in  1914  at  $250.00  per  acre;  that  the  total  price  now  placed  upon  the 
whole  farm  was  $300.00  per  acre,  or  826,400.00.  He  valued  the  land  taken  at 
$400.00  per  acre. 

He  did  not  give  any  figures  in  detail  as  to  how  he  arrived  at  the  sum  of 
$516.00  for  gravel  pit  and  gravel  taken  other  than  to  say  that  this  amount  was 
arrived  at  in  his  solicitor's  office. 

In  figuring  out  the  general  damages  for  loss  and  depreciation  in  value  of 
the  remainder  of  the  land,  about  76  acres  at  $300.00  per  acre,  he  said  it  would 
amount  to  $22,800.00,  and  30  per  cent,  on  this  amount  would  be  $6,840.00  to 
cOver  loss  and  depreciation. 

Other  witnesses  called  by  Counsel  for  the  Claimant  testified  to  a  number 
of  sales  ranging  from  $360.00  upwards  to  $930.00  an  acre,  some  of  which  were 
made  many  years  ago,  and  some  included  farm  buildings.  Alfred  C.  Bender, 
engaged  in  real  estate  and  insurance,  and  an  extensive  dealer  in  farm  lands,  one 
of  the  witnesses  for  the  Claimant,  differed  very  materially  from  the  evidence 
given  by  the  other  witnesses  called  by  Counsel  for  the  Claimant  in  regard  to 
the  value  of  the  land  taken  and  that  owned  by  the  Claimant.  He  valued  the 
land  at  from  $100.00  to  S200.00  an  acre;  the  latter  figure  on  account  of  having 
a  speculative  value,  and  the  witnesses  called  by  Counsel  for  the  City  of  Kitchener 
valued  the  land  in  question  at  $150.00  per  acre. 

In  regard  to  the  claim  for  general  damages  for  loss  and  depreciation  in  the 
value  of  the  remainder  of  the  said  land,  evidence  was  given  by  the  witnesses 
called  bv  Counsel  for  the  Claimant  to  the  effect  that  there  was  a  sentimental 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 51 

depreciation  in  value  affecting  the  remainder  of  the  land,  and  which  Mr.  Camp- 
bell contended  was  to  the  extent  of  thirty  per  cent. 

William  Gore,  Civil  Engineer,  and  a  consulting  engineer  in  connection  with 
water  and  sewage  disposal  plants,  a  witness  called  by  Counsel  for  the  City, 
described  the  works  as  "an  activated  sludge  scheme  of  sewage  disposal,"  "that 
the  process  is  carried  on  without  ofTence  so  long  as  it  is  properly  looked  after." 
He  admitted,  however,  that  there  would  be  an  odour  something  like  the  smell 
of  damp  wood,  an  odour  which,  in  his  opinion,  was  not  unpleasant.  He  would 
not  give  an  opinion  in  regard  to  sentimental  depreciation,  holding  that  the 
Board  understood  it  as  well  as  he  did.  Herbert  Johnston,  formerly  City  Engineer 
of  Kitchener,  who  at  one  time  had  charge  of  the  sewage  disposal,  when  asked 
what  would  be  the  effect  of  having  a  disposal  plant  on  the  farm,  thought  it 
would  be  hard  to  put  an  exact  value  by  way  of  depreciation,  but  the  fact  of 
having  a  sewage  disposal  plant  on  the  farm  was  bound  to  have  some  effect. 

In  regard  to  the  item  of  thirty  per  cent,  in  the  claim  to  cover  loss  and 
depreciation,  the  Board  is  satisfied  that  the  taking  of  this  land  for  the  purpose 
for  which  it  is  intended  will  depreciate  the  value  of  the  remainder  of  the  Claim- 
ant's land,  as  so  much  depends  upon  a  properly  constructed  plant  and  how  it  is 
looked  after;  should  there  be  any  carelessness  in  its  operation,  such  as  allowing 
disagreeable  odours  to  escape,  fluids  exposed  to  a  hot  sun  and  to  the  atmosphere, 
or  to  any  other  objectionable  cause,  would  make  the  locality  undesirable, 
especially  so  for  the  Claimant's  family,  or  for  others  who  may  or  are  obliged  to 
pass  through  this  locality.  Yet  the  Board  cannot  believe  that  thirty  per  cent. 
— the  figures  set  out  in  the  claim  amounting  to  86,840.00 — is  a  fair  amount  to 
be  allowed  for  loss  and  depreciation. 

The  Board  therefore  finds  and  allows  fifteen  per  cent,  on  a  valuation  of  the 
remaining  land  at  $200.00  per  acre. 

The  Board,  in  arriving  at  the  value  of  the  land  in  question,  has  fully  con- 
sidered the  various  purchases  made,  with  and  without  buildings,  as  testified  to 
herein;  also  the  testimony  of  the  witnesses  in  regard  to  the  value  of  the  land 
expropriated,  and  is  of  the  opinion  that  the  fairest  value  to  place  upon  the  land 
taken  is  the  value  of  $200.00  per  acre,  and  we  so  find. 

T}ie  Board,  in  allowing  the  S200.00  per  acre,  took  into  account  the  value 
of  the  gravel  deposit  and  for  gravel  taken,  absorbing  an  allowed  percentage  of 
the  item  of  8516.00  in  the  total  of  82,422.18  to  be  paid  for  the  land  taken. 

The  Board  also  finds  that  ten  per  cent,  be  allowed  the  Claimant  for  com- 
pulsory taking  on  the  value  of  the  land  actually  taken,  and  interest  at  five  per 
cent,  from  the  15th  day  of  September,  A.D.  1924. 

That  the  Claimant  be  allowed  One  Hundred  Dollars  to  cover  her  costs  in 
this  Arbitration. 

That  there  be  a  fee  of  Fifteen  Dollars,  the  Board's  tariff  fee  for  law  stamp 
herein,  to  be  paid  by  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Kitchener. 


I  agree.

(Arbitration.) 

Jan.  6th.  Hearing,  pursuant  to  appointment,  11.30a.  m.to  3  p.m.,  at  Court 
House,  Welland.     Judgment  reserved. 

Jan.  15th.     Judgment  and  Award  delivered. 

Opinion  of  the  Board 

The  Honourable  the  Minister  of  Public  Works  and  Highways  for  the 
Province  of  Ontario  gave  notice  to  the  owner  of  the  said  lands  pursuant  to  "The 
Ontario  Public  Works  Act,"  that  he  desired  the  compensation  to  be  paid  for  the 
lands  expropriated  by  the  Department  should  be  determined  by  The  Ontario 
Railway  and  Municipal  Board. 

A  sitting  of  the  Board  was  held  on  Tuesday,  6th  day  of  January,  1925,  at 
the  Court  House  in  the  City  of  Welland,  to  hear  evidence  and  argument,  and 
after  having  heard  a  portion  of  the  evidence  in  connection  therewith,  the  mem- 
bers of  the  Board,  in  company  with  representatives  of  the  Claimant  and  the 
Department  of  Public  Highways  of  the  Province  of  Ontario,  had  a  view  of  the 
expropriated  lands,  as  well  as  of  some  of  the  other  properties  referred  to  in  the 
evidence. 

The  Claimant  owns  a  parcel  or  tract  of  land  and  premises,  situate,  lying 
and  being  in  the  Township  of  Crowland,  in  the  County  of  Welland,  and  Province 


54 THE  REPORT  OF  THE Xo.  24 

of  Ontario,  being  composed  of  parts  of  Lots  Twenty-nine  (29)  in  Concessions 
Five  and  Six  of  the  said  Township. 

A  description  of  the  parcels  or  strips  of  land  expropriated  is  given  in  the 
document  filed  by  the  Honourable  the  Minister  of  Public  Works  and  Highways 
for  the  Province  of  Ontario,  dated  the  9th  day  of  December,  A.D.  1924,  as  com- 
prising Parcels  One,  Two,  Three  and  Four,  and  by  reference  to  the  blueprint 
drawing,  Number  1442,  dated  July  5th,  1923,  and  November  19th,  1924,  filed 
herein,  can  be  seen  the  parcels  or  narrow  strips  of  land,  marked  in  red,  running 
parallel  with  the  highway.  The  lands  on  the  south  side  are  divided  into  two 
parcels,  roughly  measuring  about  1,900  feet  in  length,  with  variation  in  width 
from  east  to  west  as  follows:  21'  8",  20'  5",  17'  1",  16'  5",  20'  8"  and  12'  6", 
and  on  the  north  side  of  the  highway  two  parcels  measuring  roughly  2,100  feet 
in  length,  with  variation  in  their  width  from  east  to  west  as  follows:  23'  1", 
19'  3",  21'  5",  23'  4",  23'  8",  20'  5"  and  30'  4",  the  whole  said  to  contain  1,688 
acres. 

The  land  taken  in  addition  to  the  old  roadway  would  appear  to  be  suflicient 
to  enable  the  Department  to  provide  a  highway  at  this  point  of  about  86  feet 
in  width.  Mr.  S.  P.  Biggs,  Solicitor  for  the  Department,  in  his  letter  to  Mr. 
Gonder  of  the  24th  July,  1923,  assured  the  latter  that  in  letting  the  Depart- 
ment take  possession  of  the  lands,  his  rights  would  not  be  prejudiced  in  regard 
to  any  claim  he  would  have  against  the  Department  of  Public  Highways,  and 
at  the  same  time  Mr.  Biggs  understood  that  the  offer  of  SI 50.00  an  acre  had 
been  refused  by  Mr.  Gonder.  At  the  hearing  the  above  date  was  agreed  to  by 
the  parties  hereto  as  the  date  possession  was  taken  of  the  lands  in  question. 

On  the  21st  day  of  November,  1924,  Mr.  R.  M.  Smith,  location  engineer, 
acting  for  the  Highways  Department,  offered  to  pay  Mr.  C.  Gonder,  the  Claimant, 
the  sum  of  S500.00  per  acre  for  the  total  acreage  according  to  the  plan  filed 
herein  of  1.688  acres,  and  the  total  to  be  $844.00.  This  offer  was  also  refused 
by  Mr.  Gonder,  as  the  latter  had  fixed  the  price  of  the  land  taken  at  S2.500.00 
per  acre,  instead  of  S3, 000. 00,  the  original  offer. 

The  witnesses  called  by  the  Claimant  testified  as  to  sales  of  various  properties 
in  the  neighbourhood  of  the  Claimant's  land,  such  as  by  Margaret  A.  Kells  to 
the  Imperial  Oil  Company  on  the  19th  March,  1919,  three  acres  of  land  at 
$6,300,  being   part  of  Lot  27,  Con.  6,  Township  of  Crowland,  at  $2,100  an  acre. 

Cromwell  Gonder  sold  to  The  Toronto,  Hamilton  and  Buffalo  Railway 
Company  in  September,  1923, acres  for  16,800  or  $2,500  an  acre. 

Edward  Wade,  a  mining  engineer  and  in  the  real  estate  business,  sold  to 
The  Toronto,  Hamilton  and  Buffalo  Railw^ay  Company  1.4  acres  at  the  extreme 
southerly  corner  of  his  property  next  to  the  Toronto,  Hamilton  and  Buffalo 
Railway  roundhouse  and  yard  at  $2,500  per  acre.  He  also  sold  to  Mr.  Bradley 
two  acres  fronting  on  both  sides  of  the  River  Road  at  S25.00  per  foot 
frontage. 

The  following  additional  evidence  of  Mr.  Wade  will  be  found  on  pages  13 
and  14,  as  regards  the  land  of  Mr.  Gonder  being  accessible  to  the  City. 

"To  Mr.  Smith:— 

Q. — You  make  this  statement  that  this  land  is  accessible  to  the  City; 
I  would  like  to  know  how  accessible  it  was  during  the  latter  part  of  March  and 
April  and  the  first  of  May,  previous  to  the  construction  of  the  Highway, 
and  also  during  the  months  of  November  and  December? 

A. — It  was  not  so  good;  the  Highway  of  course  makes  it  more  accessible  for 
vehicles  and  automobiles. 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 55 

Q. — It  was  impassable  previous  to  the  construction  of  the  Highway? 

A. — ^At  times  the  road  was  bad. 

Q. — It  was  impassable? 

A. — I  would  not  say  impassable,  it  would  be  impassable  for  some  auto- 
mobiles, but  you  could  get  through  with  horses. 

To  Mr.  Coleman: — 

Q. — It  would  not  have  been  impassable  for  horse-drawn  vehicles? 

A. — No,  I  have  known  it  to  be  impassable. 

To  Vice-Chairman: — 

Q. — The  Highway  was  an  advantage  to  the  land  in  question? 

A. — Yes,  to  have  a  roadway." 

Arthur  J.  Brennan,  ex-Mayor  of  Welland,  and  an  extensive  property 
owner,  considered  $2,500  per  acre  for  the  Claimant's  land  a  very  fair  price. 
His  way  of  figuring  would  be  to  consider  the  number  of  lots  to  the  acre,  which 
he  would  put  at  ten,  and  at  $250  to  $300  per  lot,  would  be  worth  $2,500  per  acre. 

Henry  W.  Cox,  engaged  in  real  estate  and  insurance  business,  said  he  would 
recommend  from  eight  to  ten  dollars  a  foot  frontage  for  Claimant's  land  if  it 
were  subdivided.  He  had  worked  it  out  to  be  worth  about  $2,500  per  acre. 
He  had  sold  a  lot  on  Oakland  Avenue  30'  x  108'  to  a  ten-foot  lane,  October, 
1923,  in  the  Wade  subdivision,  for  $350.  He  also  called  the  offer  made  to  Mr. 
Gonder  of  $500  per  acre  an  absurd  offer. 

Martin  I.  W^halen,  owner  of  part  of  the  Whalen  subdivision  which  adjoins 
Claimant's  property,  has  lots  varying  in  size  from  40'  x  80'  to  25'  x  190'  frontage, 
some  portions  of  which  are  covered  with  water  in  the  spring.  He  has  never 
sold  any  lots  for  less  than  $10.00  per  foot  frontage — from  $10.00  to  $12.00  a  foot. 

Norman  H.  Richardson,  land  valuator  for  the  Department  of  Public  High- 
ways, the  witness  called  by  the  Department  herein,  explained  why  the  first 
and  second  offers  of  SI 50  and  $500  per  acre  were  made  to  Mr.  Gonder.  The 
first  was  on  account  of  the  prices  paid  for  the  land  bought  north  of  Welland, 
and  did  not  include  putting  up  a  new  fence.  The  second  was  because  Mr. 
Gonder's  neighbour  gave  his  land  to  the  Department  in  return  for  the  erection 
of  a  new  fence,  and  that  fence  cost  in  the  neighbourhood  of  $400  an  acre,  so 
that  the  $150  an  acre  and  the  cost  of  the  fence  would  bring  the  cost  of  the 
land  up  to  about  $500  an  acre.  The  old  fence  was  moved  back  to  the  new 
line  on  the  Gonder  property. 

Mr.  Richardson  stated  that  he  bought  land  from  Niagara  Falls  to  Welland, 
that  the  Department  paid  S75.00  per  acre  for  all  the  land  from  the  City  limits 
of  Welland  to  Niagara  Falls,  except  in  one  case  where  $100  per  acre  was  paid 
on  account  of  excavating  in  front  of  the  property.  He  believed  that  the  land 
lying  north  and  east  of  W^elland  was  equally  as  valuable  as  the  land  lying  south 
and  west  of  Welland,  it  being  located  on  the  road  leading  into  St.  Catharines, 
Thorold  and  Niagara  Falls,  whereas  the  other  road  in  the  other  direction  leads 
into  Dunnville,  some  eighteen  miles  away.  In  buying  farm  lands  without 
subdivision  he  contended  it  is  not  worth  nearly  as  much  as  subdivided  land  on 
account  of  cost  of  subdividing,  running  streets  through,  selling,  etc.,  at  the 
same  time  giving  an  example  of  the  difference  in  value  as  between  a  sub- 
divided and  an  undivided  portion  of  farm  land. 

In  regard  to  the  purchase  by  the  Toronto,  Hamilton  and  Buffalo  Railway 
of  Gonder's  land,  he  was  of  the  opinion  that  the  freight  yard  would  be  a  detriment 
to  the  adjoining  property,  and  that  when  paying  the  price  they  took  into  con- 
sideration the  damage  to  the  balance  of  the  property. 


56 THE     REPORT    OF    THE No.  24 

As  to  the  Imperial  Oil  Company  purchase,  the  witness  thought  the  adjoining 
land  would  certainly  be  affected,  and  would  not  be  so  valuable,  with  oil  tanks 
near  residential  property;  their  appearance  and  the  danger  of  explosion  would 
in  his  opinion  affect  the  value  of  the  property  in  that  vicinity. 

He  further  contended  that  no  damage  would  be  done  to  the  remaining 
property  of  the  Claimant  by  the  taking  of  the  expropriated  land,  and  that  the 
land  taken  off  the  front  has  no  more  value  than  a  strip  of  land  taken  from 
along  the  rear,  because  the  frontage  is  in  the  front  just  the  same.  On  account 
of  the  new  road  and  the  wide  street  line  it  is  liable  to  increase  the  value  of  the 
remaining  property. 

In  regard  to  the  price  paid  for  the  vacant  land  to  Mr.  Gonder  by  the  Toronto, 
Hamilton  and  Buffalo  Railway  Company,  in  view  of  the  fact  that  their  present 
yard  is  located  on  the  west  side  of  their  main  track,  the  Board  is  of  the  opinion 
that  it  would  not  have  been  good  judgment  for  the  company  to  have  purchased 
additional  land  located  on  the  west  side  of  the  farthest  western  track  of  their 
present  yard,  as  such  additional  land  would  not  have  provided  the  same  length 
of  switching  tracks  as  an  equal  quantity  of  land  located  on  the  east  side  of  the 
main  track,  nor  would  it  have  been  as  convenient  for  the  operation  by  the 
company  in  the  ordinary  uses  of  a  railway  yard.  Doubtless  the  company 
fully  considered  this  aspect  of  yard  enlargement,  coupled  with  the  injurious 
effect  such  enlarged  yard  would  have  on  the  value  of  the  adjoining  land  of 
Gonder,  besides  having  no  alternative  if  the  company  was  determined  to  enlarge 
the  yard  on  the  eastern  side,  other  than  taking  expropriation  proceedings  or 
paying  the  price  of  $2,500  an  acre. 

With  regard  to  the  sale  of  1.4  acres  by  Mr.  Wade  to  the  Toronto,  Hamilton 
and  Buffalo  Railway  Company,  at  the  price  of  $2,500  an  acre.  The  location 
of  his  land  to  the  railway  roundhouse  and  yard  and  the  importance  to  the  Com- 
pany of  having  the  line  fence  in  keeping  with  the  line  fence  as  located  on  the 
eastern  side  of  the  yard  betw^een  the  railway  property  and  the  land  owned  by 
Mr.  Gonder  was  doubtless,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Board,  a  factor  as  well  as  the 
injurious  effect  on  the  adjoining  land  owned  by  Mr.  Wade  by  reason  of  the 
increased  yard. 

With  further  reference  to  the  sale  made  by  Margaret  A.  Kells  to  the  Imperial 
Oil  Company,  Ltd.,  in  March,  1919,  of  three  acres  of  land  at  $6,300,  equalling 
$2,100  an  acre.  This  property  is  part  of  Lot  27,  Con.  6,  Township  of  Crowland, 
and  is  located  on  the  south  side  of  Lincoln  Street,  and  facing  it  the  street  is  a 
continuation  of  the  Concession  Road  between  Concessions  5  and  6  of  the  Town- 
ship. The  Kells  property  is  located  much  nearer  the  City  of  Welland  than 
either  the  Gonder  or  Wade  lands  which  were  sold  to  the  railway  company. 
There  cannot  be  any  question  as  to  the  injurious  effect  such  sale  would  have 
on  the  adjoining  lands,  oil  tanks  being  unsightly,  and  the  possibility  of  explosion 
either  immediate  or  remote  would  have  a  prejudicial  effect  on  the  value  of 
the  remaining  land  of  the  vendor. 

On  the  evidence  submitted,  and  the  view  taken,  the  Board  is  not  satisfied 
that  the  value  of  the  land  expropriated  is  worth  $2,500  per  acre. 

The  sales  of  land,  according  to  the  witnesses  called  by  Counsel  for  the 
Claimant,  were  made  under  different  conditions,  and  do  not  afford  conclusive 
evidence  as  to  the  value  of  the  land  in  question.  These  sales  were  for  blocks 
of  land,  while  the  land  expropriated  in  this  case  was  two  narrow  strips  on  each 
side  of  the  Highway. 

From  the  view  which  the  Board  had,  as  well  as  from  the  evidence,  the 
Board  finds  that  the  land  taken  is  part  of  undivided  farm  land,  whereas  the 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 57 

land  owned  by  Whalen,  and  Wade  is  suitable  land  for  building  purposes,  it 
being  located  and  having  a  frontage  on  the  river.  The  Board  is  therefore  of 
the  opinion  that  the  land  expropriated  must  be  valued  as  farm  land,  and  not  as 
building  land,  that  is  to  say  land  subdivided  and  in  demand  for  building  purposes. 

The  Board  must  attach  some  importance  to  the  evidence  given  by  Mr. 
Richardson,  he  having  been  instrumental  in  buying  land  in  the  district  to  be 
used  for  highway  purposes.  His  evidence,  however,  related  to  purchases  made 
north  and  east  of  the  City  of  Welland,  but  did  not  deal  with  any  purchases 
made  in  the  vicinity  of  the  Claimant's  land,  with  the  exception  of  the  land 
given  by  Mr.  Bradley  on  condition  that  the  Department  give  a  new  fence  at  a 
cost  of  about  $400  per  acre. 

Counsel  for  the  Claimant  contended  that  his  client  was  entitled  to  exact 
the  full  value  of  his  land  regardless  of  the  fact  that  other  persons  might  give 
their  land  free,  or  for  a  small  consideration,  for  Highway  purposes;  as  to  this 
contention  we  agree. 

The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  the  construction  of  a  new  highway  specially 
benefits  the  remaining  land  of  the  Claimant,  inasmuch  as  it  appears  clear  from 
the  evidence  that  he  now  has  convenient  and  ready  access  to  his  lands  for  all 
classes  of  vehicles,  whereas  formerly  at  certain  periods  in  the  year  it  was  ack- 
nowledged by  one  of  the  Claimant's  witnesses  to  be  impassable,  except  perhaps 
for  horse-drawn  vehicles. 

The  Board  finds  itself  unable  to  accept  either  the  valuation  of  the  Claimant 
at  $2,500  per  acre,  or  that  of  the  Department  of  $500  per  acre,  and  from  its 
view  and  the  reasons  heretofore  given,  is  of  the  opinion  that  the  true  value  lies 
somewhere  between  these  two  figures.  After  taking  into  account  the  special 
benefit  to  the  remaining  land  of  the  Claimant  by  reason  of  the  construction  of 
the  new  highway,  the  Board  awards  the  Claimant  the  sum  of  $1,688.00,  being 
at  the  rate  of  $1,000.00  per  acre  for  the  1.688  acres  expropriated. 

To  this  amount  is  to  be  added  interest  at  the  rate  of  five  per  cent,  from 
the  24th  day  of  July,  A.D.  1923. 

The  Board  does  not  allow  anything  for  compulsory  taking. 

The  Board  awards  Claimant  his  costs  of  the  arbitration,  which  are  hereby 
fixed  at  $100.00. 

And  the  Board  makes  no  further  Order  as  to  costs,  except  that  the  Depart- 
ment of  Public  Highways  shall  pay  the  sum  of  $15.00  for  law  stamp  herein.

Opinion  of  the  Board 

By  notice  dated  the  9th  day  of  August,  A.D.  1922,  the  Corporation  of  the 
County  of  Lambton  gave  the  Claimant  notice  of  the  expropriation  of  certain 
land  belonging  to  him  in  the  Township  of  Sombra.  The  lands  required  are 
described  in  the  notice  of  that  date  as  containing  by  admeasurement  thirty-two 
one-hundredths  of  an  acre,  more  or  less,  for  the  purpose  of  a  public  road  sixty-six 
feet  in  width. 

The  plan  and  description  of  the  land  taken  were  registered  in  the  proper 
registry  ofifice  the  3rd  day  of  August,  1922,  and  it  was  of  this  date  that  com- 
pensation is  to  be  fixed,  such  date  having  been  agreed  to  by  both  parties. 

The  County  offered  to  pay  $400.00  and  to  give  the  old  road  in  full  com- 
pensation for  the  property.  The  Claimant  refused  this  offer  and  expressed  a 
willingness  to  take  $1,000,  and  the  parties  failing  to  agree  the  duty  of  fixing 
the  compensation  comes  to  the  Board  under  "The  Public  Works  Act." 

The  Corporation  of  the  County  of  Lambton  was  served  with  a  statement  of 
claim  by  Counsel  for  the  Claimant  on  the  2nd  day  of  December,  1922,  and  in 
which  it  would  appear  amongst  other  things  that  he  wanted  compensation  for: 

1.  The  land  taken; 

2.  Damages  for  injurious  affection  and  severance; 

3.  Cost  of  additional  fencing  required ; 

4.  Cost  of  bridges  or  culverts  as  required ; 

5.  Payment  for  three  trees  destroyed; 

6.  Cost  of  moving  the  house; 

7.  Payment  of  damages  by  reason  of  being  inconvenienced  by  the  reflection 
of  headlights  from  automobiles. 

It  would  also  appear  that  the  width  of  the  old  St.  Clair  River  Road  at  the 
southerly  limit  of  the  Henry  Stokes  property  is  33  ft.,  varying  in  width  to  the 
north  to  25  ft.,  36  ft.,  17  ft.,  and  to  15  ft.  opposite  the  adjoining  property  of 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 61 

\V.  R.  Stokes.  It  was  admitted  in  evidence  that  two  vehicles  could  not  meet 
and  pass  each  other  in  safety  at  the  latter  point.  The  narrowness  of  the  road- 
way was  caused  by  a  process  of  erosion;  this  process  is  continued  on  from  year 
to  year  by  the  water  of  the  ri\-er  washing  away  the  bank  of  the  roadway  until 
it  has  made  the  road  dangerous  for  traffic  purposes,  thereby  making  it  necessary 
in  the  interests  of  safety  to  make  a  new  road  along  or  near  the  river  front  at 
this  point. 

In  diverting  the  road  to  run  diagonally  across  the  Henry  Stokes  property 
it  was  contended  by  the  officials  of  the  County  that  the  location  of  the  Tomlin 
buildings  and  the  cemetery  made  it  impracticable  to  cut  the  road  straight 
through  his  property  and  that  the  regulations  of  the  Highway  Department 
provide  for  300  feet  of  a  clear  view  on  an  angle  or  curve,  thus  making  an  abrupt 
turn  in  going  across  and  out  at  right  angles  prohibitive  under  the  regulations. 

The  diagonal  location  of  the  new  road  through  Henry  Stokes  acre  of  land 
has  left  twelve-hundredths  of  an  acre  of  land  on  the  southeastern  corner  which 
is  left  in  a  triangular  shape,  two  points  of  the  triangle  being  very  acute,  while 
on  the  main  portion  of  the  land  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  road  the  points  are 
not  quite  so  acute,  yet  the  depth  of  the  land  is  materially  interfered  with  and 
sufficient  to  convince  the  Board  that  it  has  been  injuriously  affected. 

The  cottage  on  the  property  is  a  one-storey  frame  placed  upon  cement 
blocks  or  posts,  and  is  30'  x  36'  over  all,  including  the  verandah  8  feet  wide 
in  front  and  28  feet  of  building  on  the  north  side;  the  verandah  is  on  the  west 
side.  On  the  south  side  of  the  building  the  length  of  the  wall  is  20  feet,  and  an 
open  verandah  8'  x  8'.  The  southeast  corner  of  the  cottage  is  24  feet  from  the 
new  road.     (Exhibit  7). 

There  are  two  open  farm  ditches  on  this  property — one  running  across 
from  east  to  west  near  the  northern  limit  which  empties  into  the  river.  Opposite 
the  east  side  of  the  cottage  it  is  thirteen  feet  wide  and  four  feet  deep,  and  on 
the  west  side  of  the  cottage  it  is  seventeen  feet  wide  and  five  feet  and  one  and  a 
half  inches  deep.  The  other  smaller  ditch,  about  four  feet  wide  at  the  top 
and  one  and  a  half  feet  deep,  runs  diagonally  across  the  southwesterly  corner 
of  the  property,  thence  along  the  side  of  the  old  road  and  empties  into  the 
northerly  ditch,  thence  into  the  river. 

On, each  side  of  the  diverted  road  there  is  a  ditch  and  it  would  appear  by 
the  profile  (Exhibit  6)  that  there  is  a  fall  from  both  directions.  The  Claimant 
contends  that  the  water  lodges  in  this  depression,  thus  causing  a  stagnant 
pool,  the  removal  of  which  he  states  would  cost  S75  to  take  the  water  to  the 
river.  The  Superintendent  contradicts  the  Claimant's  statement  in  regard 
to  this  drainage.  The  Board,  after  taking  a  view  of  the  property  and  the 
location  of  the  said  ditches,  are  inclined  to  agree  with  the  Claimant  that  there 
is  a  depression  as  he  alleges  which  interferes  with  the  flow  of  the  water. 

The  County  expressed  their  willingness  to  construct  the  necessary  bridges 
over  the  ditches,  the  construction  of  which  would  enable  the  Claimant  to  pass 
back  and  forth  over  his  land,  so  soon  as  he  intimated  to  the  officials  of  the 
County  where  he  wanted  the  bridges  located.  The  Claimant  did  intimate 
to  the  officials  of  the  County  in  our  presence  when  taking  a  view  where  he 
wanted  the  entrances  to  his  lands  made,  and  stakes  were  driven  showing  where 
the  bridges  were  to  be  built  by  the  County. 

In  1921  the  land  and  building  were  assessed  at  $150.00. 

1922  the  land  at  $35.00,  building  at  $100.00 

1923  the  land  at  $35.00,  building  at  8115.00 
1925  the  land  at  $30.00,  building  at  $100.00 


62  THE   REPORT  OF  THE  Xo.  24 

Mr.  McCallum,  the  County  Road  Superintendent,  allowed  SlOO  for  the 
value  of  the  land  taken  and  S200  for  damages,  or  in  other  words  he  allowed  for 
the  value  of  the  land  S300  per  acre,  and  for  damages  he  allowed  the  same  amount 
per  acre  as  if  the  whole  acre  had  actually  been  taken;  with  this  view  the  Board 
cannot  agree. 

Summarized,  the  Board's  award  is  as  follows: 

Thirtv-two  one-hundredths  (32, 100)   of  an  acre  at  $525  per 

acre S175  00 

Injurious  affection  of  land  retained  including  an  amount  to 

cover  cost  of  fixing  drains 200  00 

Value  of  trees 50  00 

Moving  house 50  00 

Fencing  new  highway 60  00 

Ten  per  cent,  for  compulsory  expropriation  on  the  value  of 

the  land  taken 17  50 


$552  50 


Interest  at  the  rate  of  five  per  cent,  per  annum  should  be  allowed  on  the 
compensation  awarded  from  the  3rd  of  August,  1922,  as  it  was  upon  this  date 
the  County  took  possession. 

In  putting  the  value  of  the  land  taken  at  the  rate  of  $525  per  acre  the 
Board  allowed  the  Claimant  in  addition  for  the  gift  by  the  County  of  the  old  road. 

It  was  agreed  at  the  hearing  on  January  27th  last  that  the  Board  should 
have  a  view  of  the  property  in  question  some  time  after  the  snow  was  off  the 
ground.  This  view  was  taken  last  Wednesday,  the  29th  April,  in  the  presence 
of  both  parties. 

The  Board  allows  the  Claimant  his  costs  of  and  incidental  to  the  arbitration 
which  are  hereby  fixed  at  SlOO,  and  the  Corporation  of  the  County  of  Lambton 
shall  pay  S20.00,  the  Board's  fee  for  law  stamps.

Award 

To  All  To  Whom  These  Presents  Shall  Come 

The  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board  sends  greeting: 
Whereas  for  the  purpose  of  The  Highway  Improvement  Act  and  amend- 
ments thereto  the  Corporation  of  the  County  of  Lambton  did  take  and  expropriate 
certain  lands  of  the  said  Henry  Stokes,  which  the  County  did  deem  necessary 
for  the  use  of  a  public  highway  under  the  provisions  of  the  aforesaid  Act. 

And  whereas  pursuant  to  the  provisions  of  the  Ontario  Public  Works  Act 
the  Corporation  of  the  County  of  Lambton  gave  notice  that  the  said  County 
desired  that  the  compensation  to  be  made  to  the  owner  of  the  said  lands  should 
be  determined  by  the  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board. 

Now  the  said  Ontario  Railway  and  Municipal  Board  having  taken  upon

Opinion  of  the  Board 

The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  leave  should  be  granted  in  this  case. 

It  must  be  borne  in  mind  that  the  Board  has  nothing  to  do  with  the  policy 
or  impolicy  of  the  widening  of  Bloor  Street  as  proposed,  that  is  a  question  exclu- 
sively for  the  Council  representing  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Toronto. 
The  question  which  it  is  the  duty  of  the  Board  to  determine  is  whether  there  is 
any  exceptional  reason  not  apparent  or  existing  when  By-law  No.  9416  was 
passed  which  would  warrant  the  Board  in  granting  leave  to  repeal  that  By-law. 
Its  duty  and  jurisdiction  being  so  expressly  limited  by  the  Statute,  the  Board  is 
of  the  opinion  that  such  exceptional  reason  is  furnished  by  the  amendment  to 
section  325a  of  "The  Municipal  Act"  enacted  in  1924.  By  that  amendment 
the  obligation  of  the  City  to  pay  compensation  voluntarily  assumed  by  the  City 
under  By-law  No.  9416  was  materially  expanded  in  respect  of  compensation  for 
damages  occasioned  by  business  disturbance.  Indeed,  the  amendment  was 
promoted  and  procured  to  be  enacted  mainly  by  Mr.  Stollery,  the  holder  of 
valuable  leasehold  interests  which,  in  his  opinion,  would  be  seriously  disturbed 
by  the  execution  of  the  work  of  widening. 


72 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

Mr.  Stollery  had  been  advised  that  under  section  325a,  as  it  stood  in  1922, 
he  would  be  unable  to  effectively  claim  compensation  for  losses  resulting  from 
business  disturbance.  The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  Mr.  Stollery  was  well 
advised  in  that  respect  since,  in  its  view,  a  claim  for  compensation  for  business 
disturbance  under  an  expropriation  proceeding  by  a  municipality  was  no  more 
maintainable  under  section  325a  as  in  1922  than  under  section  325  of  "The 
Municipal  Act."  The  latter  section  is  the  general  section  defining  the  com- 
pensation to  be  made  by  a  municipal  corporation  on  an  expropriation  of  land  by 
it.  A  recent  decision  of  the  Appellate  Division — Re  Powell  and  Toronto,  27 
O.W.N. ,  444 — is  clear  authority  for  the  proposition  that  upon  such  an  expro- 
priation a  claim  for  compensation  for  damages  occasioned  by  disturbance  to 
business  is  not  maintainable  under  section  325;  neither  in  the  opinion  of  the 
Board  was  such  a  claim  maintainable  under  section  325a  as  it  stood  in  1922. 

The  amendment  of  1924  placed  an  additional  obligation  on  the  ratepayers 
of  Toronto,  without  the  consent  of  the  Corporation,  namely,  an  obligation  to 
compensate  for  losses  occasioned  by  disturbance  to  business  as  in  paragraph  (c) 
set  out.  The  quantum  of  that  compensation  the  Board  has  no  means  of  deter- 
mining, and  it  could  scarcely  have  been  in  contemplation  of  the  Legislature  that 
the  Board  should  determine  it  when  exercising  its  jurisdiction  on  such  an  applica- 
tion as  this.  It  is  sufficient  to  say  that  upon  the  evidence  submitted  the  Board 
is  satisfied  that  Bloor  Street,  from  Spadina  Road  to  Sherbourne  Street,  is  now 
and  is  becoming  more  and  more  a  business  street,  that  many  business  premises 
situated  on  it  will  be  physically  affected  by  the  execution  of  this  work,  and  the 
businesses  carried  on  will  be  disturbed  to  the  prejudice  of  the  owner,  and  the 
City  will  be  called  on  to  contest  and  perhaps  to  pay  a  number  of  claims  for 
compensation  occasioned  by  such  disturbance. 

The  Board  can  imagine  few  things  more  exceptional  than  the  use  of  the 
compulsory  powers  of  the  law  making  authority  to  impose  upon  a  contracting 
party  a  new  and  undefined  obligation — for  the  obligation  of  the  City  of  Toronto 
under  By-law  No.  9416  is  of  the  nature  of  an  obligation  in  contract.  As  Mr. 
Tilley  said,  the  By-law  created  vested  rights— vested  in  the  owners  of  property 
affected — rights  which  must  not  be  lightly  interfered  with.  But  surely  the 
same  sanctity  which  protects  the  property  owners  affected  in  their  rights  pro- 
tects the  municipality  in  its  rights  in  the  premises.  The  City  Council  passed 
By-law  No.  9416  in  good  faith,  and  upon  the  assumption  that  the  law  as  it  then 
stood  would  remain  unchanged  at  least  so  far  that  no  new  obligation  would  be 
imposed  on  it  without  its  consent. 

It  has  been  suggested  that  paragraph  (c)  is  quite  a  harmless  enactment. 
For  instance,  it  is  argued  that  it  does  not  confer  a  substantive  right  to  claim 
as  in  respect  of  losses  for  business  disturbance,  but  is  merely  intended  to  prevent 
claims  of  that  kind  being  successfully  made  in  respect  of  businesses  established 
after  the  passing  of  the  By-law.  This  argument  is  based  on  the  assumption 
that  claims  for  compensation  for  business  disturbance  were  maintainable  under 
section  325a  as  it  stood  in  1922.  The  Board  does  not  concede  this  assumption, 
but,  on  the  contrary,  holds  that  claims  for  business  disturbance  were  not  main- 
tainable under  section  325a  as  it  stood  when  the  By-law  was  passed. 

Then  it  is  urged  in  respect  of  paragraph  (c)  that  the  words  in  the  third  and 
fourth  lines,  "to  which  the  general  principles  of  compensation  shall  apply," 
prevent  the  words  in  the  first  and  second  lines,  "damages  occasioned  by  dis- 
turbance to  any  business  established  previous  to  the  passing  of  the  By-law," 
having  their  natural  and  obvious  effect.  Whatever  the  meaning  and  effect  of 
the  above  vague  and  general  words  in  the  third  and  fourth  lines  may  be,  the 


1926  RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 73 

Board  is  not  prepared  to  hold  that  the  words  in  the  first  and  second  Hnes  have 
been  robbed  of  all  force  and  effect,  and  that  rights  expressly  and  clearly  con- 
ferred by  the  words  in  the  first  and  second  lines  are  taken  away  by  the  words 
that  follow. 

It  is  further  argued  that  as  the  amendment  of  1924  is  made  retroactive  by 
force  of  the  enactment  that  the  amending  "section  shall  be  read  as  though  it 
had  been  in  effect  from  and  after  the  18th  day  of  May,  1922,"  the  jurisdiction 
of  the  Board  under  subsection  (3)  of  section  325a  is  ousted  and  the  amendment 
cannot  be  laid  hold  of  by  the  Board  as  affording  an  exceptional  reason  not 
apparent  or  existing  when  the  By-law  was  passed  warranting  the  granting  of 
leave.  No  doubt  this  amendment  will  be  effective  for  the  purpose  of  binding 
the  arbitrators  in  awarding  compensation,  whether  By-law  No.  9416  is  repealed 
or  not.  But  the  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  its  enactment  does  not  restrict 
the  discretion  of  the  Board  in  the  exercise  of  its  jurisdiction  under  subsection  (3). 
If  the  enactment  of  1924  had  said  that  the  amendment  would  not  apply  to  any 
By-law  then  already  passed,  the  amendment  would  not  have  afforded  a  reason 
for  granting  leave  to  repeal  By-law  No.  9416.  The  very  fact  that  the  amending 
enactment  was  passed  in  1924  made  it  impossible  that  it  and  its  consequences 
could  have  been  apparent  or  existing  in  1922  when  the  By-law  was  passed.  The 
mere  declaration  of  the  Legislature  in  the  terms  used  that  the  amending  enact- 
ment should  be  retroactive  does  not  cure  that  infirmity.  Furthermore,  the 
Board  holds  that  an  additional  financial  obligation  was  imposed  on  the  Cor- 
poration over  and  beyond  the  obligations  already  voluntarily  assumed  by  it, 
and  this  fact  constitutes  an  exceptional  reason — cogent  and  unanswerable — for 
remitting  the  matter  to  the  City  Council  under  these  new  conditions  in  order 
that  the  Council  may  have  an  opportunity  of  reconsidering  its  position.  Of 
course,  it  does  not  necessarily  follow  that,  leave  having  been  granted  by  the 
Board,  By-law  No.  9416  will  be  repealed,  but  it  will  then  rest  with  the  Council 
of  the  Corporation  which  initiated  this  work  to  determine  whether  it  is  in  the 
interest  of  the  Municipality  that  this  work  should  be  carried  to  completion  under 
the  altered  circumstances  created  by  the  amendment  of  1924.

vided. 


74 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

The  Board  doth  further  order  and  declare  that  leave  is  hereby  granted  to 
the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Toronto  to  pass  a  by-law  to  repeal  By-law  No.

Opinion  of  the  Board 

This  is  an  application  by  the  City  of  London  for  an  Order  requiring  the 
London  Street  Railway  Company  to  comply  with  the  requirements  of  the 
regulations  lettered  (d)  and  (r)  of  paragraph  25  of  By-law  No.  916.  This 
By-law,  which  is  virtually  the  agreement  defining  the  contractual  relations  of 
the  above  City  and  Company,  is  set  out  at  length  in  Schedule  A  to  the  Ontario 
Statutes  of  1896,  Chap.  105,  which  enactment  confirms  the  By-law  and  declares 
it  to  be  valid  and  effective  in  all  respects. 

Subsection  (d)  of  section  25  of  the  By-law  provides  (so  far  as  it  is  necessary 
to  recite  for  the  purposes  of  this  application)  that  the  Company  may  charge  and 
collect  from  every  person  on  entering  any  of  its  cars  for  a  continuous  journey, 
etc.,  a  sum  not  exceeding  five  cents.  Subsection  (d)  further  binds  the  Company 
that  "it  shall  sell  tickets  at  the  price  of  twenty-five  cents  for  seven  tickets,  each 
ticket  to  entitle  the  holder  to  one  continuous  journey  on  the  cars  (of  the  Com- 
pany), as  particularly  set  out  in  subsection  (d),  between  the  hour  when  the  cars 
commence  running  and  twelve  o'clock  midnight,  and  shall  also  sell  another 
class  of  tickets  at  the  price  of  twenty-five  cents  for  nine  tickets,  the  same  to 
entitle  the  holder  to  one  continuous  journey  on  the  cars  (of  the  Company) 
between  the  hours  of  6.30  a.m.  and  8  a.m.  and  between  the  hours  of  5  and  6.30 
p.m."  Clause  (r)  of  paragraph  25  provides  that  the  Company  shall  "keep  a 
sufficient  supply  of  tickets  for  sale  at  some  place  in  the  business  portion  of  the 
City  convenient  from  time  to  time  for  the  public,  and  also  upon  all  their  cars 
in  service,  and  they  shall  sell  tickets  to  all  persons  desiring  to  purchase  the 
same  at  the  rates  mentioned  in  subsection  (d)  of  section  25"  of  By-law  No.  916. 

It  thus  appears  that,  by  agreement  with  the  City,  the  Company  was,  under 
the  provisions  above  in  part  set  out,  entitled  to  charge  what  (for  convenience  of 


82 


THE   REPORT  OF  THE 


No.  24 


reference)  may  be  designated  an  adult  cash  fare  of  five  cents,  but  were  bound 
to  sell  on  its  cars  and  maintain  a  convenient  place  in  the  City  for  the  sale  of 
two  classes  of  tickets  as  above.  So  far  as  appears,  the  Company  observed  the 
obligations  of  subsections  (d)  and  (r)  of  section  25  of  By-law  No.  916  until  the 
transactions  to  be  presently  referred  to,  by  reason  of  which  the  Company  con- 
tends that  it  is  exonerated  from  the  obligation  to  sell  or  to  maintain  a  con- 
venient place  for  the  sale  of  tickets  of  either  class  as  above  set  out. 

At  the  session  of  the  Ontario  Legislature  in  the  year  1922  the  Company 
procured  to  be  enacted  "An  Act  respecting  the  London  Street  Railway,"  being 
Chap.  141  of  the  Statutes  of  that  year.  Whether  or  not  the  City  was  a  party 
to  this  legislation  does  not  appear,  but  no  question  has  been  raised  as  to  the 
competence  of  the  Legislature  to  pass  it.  Looking  to  the  preamble  of  Chapter 
141,  which  it  is  permissible  to  do  (R.S.O.,  c.  1,  s.  9),  it  first  recites  the  facts 
which  induced  the  Compan^-'s  application  to  the  Legislature,  and  the  causes 
which  induced  the  Legislature  to  intervene  at  the  instance  and  petition  of  the 
Company.     They  are  briefly  these: 

(1)  That  by  reason  of  increased  costs  the  Company  could  not  continue  to 
maintain  and  operate  its  railway  at  the  rate  of  fare  then  in  effect; 

(2)  That  in  order  to  enable  the  Company  to  continue  to  maintain  and 
operate  its  railway  so  as  to  give  a  reasonable  and  reasonably  safe  service,  it 
should  be  authorized  to  so  increase  its  fares  as  to  enable  it  to  obtain  sufficient 
revenue; 

(3)  That  it  was  expedient  to  grant  the  prayer  of  the  Company's  petition. 
Chapter  141  of  the  Statutes  of  1922  in  the  operative  part  of  the  first  section 

then  proceeds  to  enact  in  terms  practically  identical  word  for  word  with  the 
terms  in  which  the  Company  was  authorized  by  subsection  (d)  of  section  25  to 
charge  and  collect  the  adult  cash  fare  of  five  cents.  The  analysis  below  of  sub- 
section 25  (d)  of  By-law  916,  and  of  section  1  of  Chapter  141  (1922)  sets  out  in 
parallel  columns  the  content  of  the  two  enactments.  It  will  be  seen  that  in

If  the  matter  rested  there  it  might  have  been  said  with  some  warrant  of 
truth  that  the  Company  had  not  by  such  legislation  advanced  appreciably 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 83 

towards  its  objective,  namely,  increased  revenue  from  fares  charged  and  col- 
lected. The  Legislature  had  simply  re-enacted  what  was  already  in  subsection 
(d)  of  section  25,  conferring  no  new  rights,  but  omitting  all  reference  to  tickets. 
But  a  different  complexion  is  put  on  the  matter  by  a  consideration  of  the  opening 
words  of  section  1,  which  reads  "Notwithstanding  anything  contained  in  any 
agreement  or  by-law  or  in  any  general  or  special  act  of  this  Legislature,  the 
London  Street  Railway  may,  for  the  unexpired  term  of  its  franchise,  charge  and 
collect,  etc."  It  seems  to  the  Board  that  these  introductory  words  of  section  1 
read  in  conjunction  with  the  recitals  in  the  preamble  can  have  only  one  effect 
so  far  as  the  subject  matter  of  this  application  is  concerned,  namely,  that  the 
provision  requiring  the  Company  to  sell  and  provide  facilities  for  selling  tickets 
was  intended  to  be  repealed  and  was  repealed  for  the  unexpired  term  of  the 
Company's  franchise.  This  conclusion  is  supported  by  the  provisions  of  section 
3  of  the  Act  of  1922.  This  was  the  effect  imputed  to  this  section  of  the  Act  of 
1922  by  the  parties  chiefly  interested  in  its  application,  the  City  and  the  Com- 
pany. From  the  13th  June,  1922,  when  the  Act  of  1922  became  law,  the  Com- 
pany admittedly  ceased  to  sell  tickets  to  intending  passengers  on  their  cars, 
and  treated  the  provisions  of  subsections  (d)  and  (r)  of  section  25  of  By-law 
No.  916  as  repealed,  and  the  Board  so  holds. 

It  will  be  noted  that  section  20  of  By-law  No.  916  provides  by  subsection  (1) 
that  the  Company's  privileges  granted  by  the  By-law  shall  extend  till  the  8th 
day  of  March,  1925,  and  the  Corporation,  by  giving  one  year's  notice  prior  to 
that  date  of  their  intention  to  do  so,  may  assume  the  ownership  of  the  railway, 
etc.  Subsection  (4)  of  section  20  provides  that  in  the  event  of  the  Corporation 
not  exercising  the  right  to  take  over  the  railway,  etc.,  as  aforesaid  from  the  8th 
day  of  March,  1925,  the  Corporation  may  at  the  expiration  of  any  fifth  year 
thereafter  exercise  such  right  upon  giving  not  less  than  one  year's  previous 
notice  to  the  Company  of  their  intention  to  do  so,  and  then  follow  these  words: 
"And  the  privileges,  duties,  obligations  and  liabilities  hereunder  of  the  Company 
shall  continue  until  the  ownership  is  assumed  by  the  Corporation  as  aforesaid, 
or  possession  taken  under  the  provisions  of  this  section  as  above  mentioned." 

One  result  of  the  foregoing  transactions  is,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Board,  that 
the  Company  was  entitled  to  charge  and  collect  from  each  passenger  on  their 
carsy  with  the  exceptions  mentioned,  a  cash  fare  of  five  cents  from  each  adult 
and  a  cash  fare  of  three  cents  from  each  child  between  the  ages  of  5  and  12  years; 
and  that  the  Company  might  do  this  not  merely  up  to  the  8th  March,  1925, 
when  the  term  certain  of  their  fifty-year  franchise  expired,  but  also  during  any 
of  the  five-year  increments  thereafter  contingent  on  the  City's  not  taking  over 
the  railway  on  the  8th  March,  1925,  or  on  the  expiry  of  any  five-year  period 
thereafter.  Section  1  of  the  Act  of  1922  confers  the  right  thereby  granted  to 
the  Company  "for  the  unexpired  term  of  its  (the  Company's)  franchise."  It 
seems  to  the  Board  that  the  franchise  period  of  the  Company  is  made  up  of 
two  factors,  the  period  of  fifty  years  certain  terminating  on  the  8th  day  of 
March,  1925,  and  the  successive  increments  of  five  years  thereafter  contingent 
on  the  failure  of  the  Corporation  to  give  the  requisite  year's  notice  of  its  intention 
to  take  over  the  railway.  Each  of  these  factors  constitutes  an  essential  part  of 
the  Company's  franchise  period,  under  each  the  Company  is  to  enjoy  and  be 
subject  to  precisely  the  same  "privileges,  duties,  obligations  and  liabilities."  It 
seems  to  the  Board,  therefore,  that  the  enactment  of  1922  applies  as  fully  to  the 
successive  increments  of  five  years  for  the  purpose  of  determining  the  rights  of 
the  parties  as  to  the  franchise  term  ending  8th  March,  1925.  In  the  event  of 
the  City's  not  taking  over  the  railway  at  the  expiry  of  the  Company's  main 


84 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

franchise  terminating  on  8th  March,  1925,  the  Company  would  have  continued 
automatically  in  possession  of  the  railway  subject  to  its  rights  under  By-law 
No.  916,  as  modified  by  the  legislation  of  1922. 

The  City  evidently  thought  that  this  view  might  be  entertained,  since  at 
the  Session  of  the  Legislature  in  1924  it  procured  to  be  passed  "An  Act  respecting 
the  London  Street  Railway  Act,"  whose  single  section  reads  thus: 

"To  remove  doubts  it  is  hereby  declared  that  the  provisions  of  Chapter  141 
of  the  Act  passed  in  1922,  intituled  "An  Act  respecting  the  London  Street  Rail- 
way," shall  only  apply  up  to  the  8th  day  of  March,  1925,  and  from  and  after 
the  said  8th  day  of  March,  1925,  the  said  Act  shall  be  and  the  same  is  hereby 
repealed." 

The  Company  contends  that  while  this  last  named  Act  of  1924  was  effective 
to  repeal  the  above  Act  of  1922  its  repeal  did  not  revive  the  repealed  provisions 
of  section  25,  subsections  (d)  and  (r)  of  By-law  No.  916,  as  to  the  sale  and 
keeping  for  sale  of  tickets.  For  this  contention  the  Company  cites  section  14, 
paragraph  (a)  of  "The  Interpretation  Act"  (R.S.O.  1914,  Chapter  1),  which 
reads  thus: 

"Where  an  Act  is  repealed  or  wherever  any  regulation  is  revoked,  such 
repeal  or  revocation  shall  not  save  as  in  this  section  otherwise  provided, 

"(a)  revive  any  act,  enactment,  regulation  or  thing  not  in  force  or  existing 
at  the  time  at  which  the  revocation  takes  effect." 

The  Board  is  of  opinion  that  it  should  give  effect  to  the  Company's  con- 
tention. There  can  be  no  doubt  as  to  the  application  of  the  above  provision 
of  "The  Interpretation  Act"  in  limiting  the  effect  of  the  legislation  of  1924. 
By  reason  of  the  legislation  of  1922  the  provisions  of  By-law  No.  916  as  to  tickets 
were  undoubtedly  repealed.  The  consequences  flowing  from  such  repeal  are 
clearly  stated  by  Lord  Reading,  then  Chief  Justice  in  the  case  Watson  v.  Winch 
(1916),  1  K.B.  688,  adopting  the  language  of  the  Court  in  Surtees  v.  Ellison, 
9  B.  &  C,  750-752,  as  follows: 

"It  has  been  long  established  that,  when  an  Act  of  Parliament  is  repealed, 
it  must  be  considered  (except  as  to  transactions  passed  and  closed)  as  if  it  had 
never  existed.  That  is  the  general  rule."  The  Board  is  not  aware  that  any 
different  canon  of  interpretation  is  to  be  applied  where  an  instrument  (other 
than  an  Act  of  Parliament)  conferring  rights  or  imposing  obligations  has  been 
repealed  by  a  competent  Act  of  the  Legislature.  If  therefore  the  provisions  as 
to  the  sale  of  tickets  contained  in  By-law  No.  916  were  effectively  repealed  by 
the  Act  of  1922 — and  the  Board  holds  to  this  view — it  follows  that  those  pro- 
visions were  "as  if  they  had  never  existed,"  and  being  non-existent  by  force  of 
the  Act  of  1922,  they  were  not  revived  when  the  repealing  Act  of  1922  was  in 
turn  repealed  by  the  Act  of  1924.  If  the  Board's  conclusion  is  well  founded,  it 
follows  that  there  is  no  obligation  on  the  Co'npany  to  sell  and  keep  for  sale 
tickets  as  originally  provided  in  By-law  No.  916,  and  the  Company  is  not  guilty 
of  a  breach  of  its  agreement,  and  that  the  application  must  be  dismissed. 

The  application  is  dismissed,  but  without  costs,  except  that  the  City  will 
pay  $15.00  in  Law  Stamps  on  the  Order.

Opinion  of  the  Board 

The  property  owned  by  Mr.  J.  A.  Willoughby  situate  at  the  southwest 
corner  of  Yonge  and  Heath  Streets  being  part  of  Lot  12,  Plan  365,  having  a 
frontage  on  the  west  side  of  Yonge  Street  of  about  thirty-six  feet,  and  a  flankage 
along  the  south  side  of  Heath  Street  West  of  about  one  hundred  and  six  feet 
seven  inches  was  assessed  by  the  City  in  1924  and  in  1925  as  Number  1558 
Yonge  Street.  It  would  appear  by  the  evidence  that  it  is  also  known  as  Num- 
ber 1  Heath  Street. 

The  City  passed  By-laws  relating  to  various  restrictions  on  Heath  Street 
West,  one  in'l912,  1916,' 1919,  two  in  1921  and  one  in  1923. 

By-law  No.  8754  passed  on  the  16th  day  of  May,  1921,  did,  however,  exempt 
Heath  Street,  from  a  point  one  hundred  and  fifty  feet  west  of  Yonge  Street 
from  the  restrictive  provisions  of  that  By-law. 

The  evidence  submitted  at  the  hearing  establishes  incontestably  that 
Yonge  Street  is  a  business  street,  notwithstanding  the  fact  that  there  are  private 
residences  located  on  many  places  on  each  side  of  the  street  and  apparently 
not  protected  by  any  stringent  restrictive  City  By-laws. 

The  peculiarity  of  the  property  in  question  is  the  categor}'  under  which  it  is 
placed  by  the  passage  of  the  previous  b^'-laws,  fronting,  as  the  Board  believes 
it  does,  on  Yonge  Street,  as  do  the  adjoining  private  residences  located  south  of 
it,  the  difference  being  that  they  can  dispose  of  their  properties  for  any  business 
purpose  allowable  on  the  street  whilst  the  owner  of  this  corner  property  is 
restricted  to  a  detached  private  residence. 

The  west  side  of  Yonge  Street  between  Heath  Street  and  Delisle  Avenue 
has  changed  very  materially,  there  being  nine  stores  in  addition  to  the  above 
mentioned  residences  and  should  a  further  business  development  wipe  out 
these  three  remaining  unrestricted  residences  and  no  exemption  allowed  on 
the   remaining  corner  property,   it  would   certainly   occupy  rather  an   unique 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 87 

position  being  the  only  restricted  private  residence  on  that  section  of  the  street. 

Heath  Street  is  admittedly  a  fine  residential  street  as  are  some  of  the  others 
in  this  locality  intersecting  with  Yonge  Street. 

In  similar  applications  to  the  Board  where  the  parties  desired  to  restrict 
areas  which  would  intersect  recognized  business  streets,  the  Board  as  in  the 
case  of  St.  George  Street,  north  of  Bloor,  exempted  a  flankage  of  two  hundred 
feet  on  St.  George  Street,  north  of  Bloor  Street,  and  in  the  case  of  Roxborough 
Street,  on  both  sides,  one  hundred  and  fifty  feet  from  the  west  side  of  Yonge 
Street. 

Had  the  attention  of  the  Board  been  called  at  the  time  the  application  to 
approve  By-law  No.  9495,  on  the  21st  of  March,  1923,  to  restrict  the  Willoughby 
property  with  others  on  Heath  Street  to  the  former  exemption  of  one  hundred 
and  fifty  feet  west  of  Yonge  Street,  and  to  its  relative  position  to  Yonge  Street 
and  the  adjoining  properties,  the  Board  would  have  refused  to  approve  By-law 
No.  9495  placing  such  restriction  upon  it. 

The  Board  having  heard  the  evidence  and  arguments  herein,  and  having 
had  a  view  of  the  property  involved  in  this  application  as  well  as  the  surrounding 
streets,  finds  that  the  said  property  fronts  on  Yonge  Street,  and  is  entitled  to 
the  exemption  provided  for  in  By-law  No.  10437.  The  Board,  therefore,  ap- 
proves By-law  No.  10437,  and  the  Board  makes  no  Order  for  costs,  save  and 
except  that  the  Applicant  shall  pay  $10.00  for  the  law  stamps  required  for  this 
Order.

Order 

Upon  the  application  of  the  said  Corporation,  and  upon  reading  the  material 
filed  by  William  Johnston,  Esquire,  K.C.,  Solicitor  for  the  Applicant,  and  upon 
hearing  the  evidence  adduced  and  what  was  alleged  by  Counsel  for  the  Applicant 
and  Counsel  for  certain  owners  of  property,  and  certain  other  owners  on  Heath 
Street  West  and  on  Yonge  Street  who  appeared  in  person  to  oppose  the  applica-

This  Board  orders,  under  and  in  pursuance  of  subsection  (2b)  of  section  399a 
of  "The  Consolidated  Municipal  Act,  1922,"  that  By-law  No.  10437  passed

being  entitled  "No.  10437,  a  By-law  to  amend  By-law  No.  9495  restricting 
properties  on  Heath  Street  West  to  detached  private  residences  by  exempting 
therefrom  the  property  at  the  southwest  corner  of  Heath  Street  and  Yonge 
Street,"  be  and  the  same  is  hereby  approved. 

And  this  Board  does  not  see  fit  to  make  any  oM'er  as  to  costs  except  that 
the  Applicant  shall  pay  the  sum  of  $10.00  for  the  law  stamps  required  by  this 
Order.

Opinion  of  the  Board 

This  is  an  application  by  the  Township  of  Hamilton,  in  the  County  of 
Northumberland,  under  section  460  of  "The  Municipal  Act,"  to  be  relieved 
from  the  obligation  to  rebuild  a  bridge  situated  on  the  side  line  road  between 
Lots  33  and  34  in  the  first  concession  of  that  Township.  The  bridge  was  one 
under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Township.  It  appeared  in  evidence  that  about 
seven  years  ago  the  bridge  w^as  damaged  by  freshets,  so  badly  that  the  Township 
Council,  deeming  the  continuing  structure  unsafe,  removed  it  entirely,  except 
the  abutments,  and  left  matters  in  that  condition  until  the  present  time. 

The  failure  to  rebuild  the  bridge  immediately  after  its  destruction  was 
justified  on  the  ground  that  the  cost  of  construction  at  that  time — in  1918  when 
inflation  prevailed — was  so  high  as  to  make  it  unwise  to  incur  any  expenditures 
that  might  be  avoided.  On  this  application  the  claim  is  made  under  sub- 
section (9)  of  the  above  section  that  "it  (the  bridge)  is  no  longer  required  for 
the  public  convenience."  No  serious  attempt  w^as  made  to  establish  a  case 
on  the  other  ground  permissible  under  subsection  (9),  namely  on  the  ground 
that  "the  rebuilding  of  it  (the  bridge)  would  entail  a  larger  expenditure  than 
would  be  reasonable  having  regard  to  the  use  that  would  be  made  of  the  bridge 
if  it  were  rebuilt." 

The  above  Lots  33  and  34  abut  on  the  south  on  the  first  concession  road 
which  is  now  a  Provincial  highway,  and  abut  on  the  north  on  the  second  con- 
cession road  known  locally  as  the  telephone  road.  Both  these  roads  run  east 
and  west,  and  are  excellent  highways — the  Provincial  highway  being  the  highest 
class  of  road  under  the  Provincial  Government's  scheme  of  highway  improvement. 

Leaving  out  of  consideration  as  negligible  a  small  holding  of  two  acres  on 
which  is  situate  a  wrecked  and  apparently  unused  house,  Lots  33  and  34  in  the 
first  concession  of  the  Township  of  Hamilton  are  owned  by  four  persons,  the 
north  halves  abutting  on  the  telephone  road  belonging  to  Messrs.  Lang  and 
Maybee  respectively,  and  the  south  halves  abutting  on  the  Provincial  highway 
belonging  to  Messrs.  Noble  and  Ferguson  respectively.  Of  these  four  men 
most  nearly  interested  in  the  maintenance  of  the  bridge,  and  thereby  the  con- 
tinuance of  this  sideline  road  as  a  usable  highway,  Mr.  Noble  thought  it  would 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 89 

be  a  needless  expense  to  rebuild  the  bridge,  and  Mr.  Ferguson  was  indififerent, 
stating  that  he  used  this  sideline  only  to  reach  the  Provincial  highway,  and 
even  if  the  bridge  were  not  rebuilt  the  sideline  would  still  serve  him  for  that 
purpose.  Of  the  remaining  two  of  these  four  owners,  Mr.  Lang  wished  the 
bridge  restored  mainly  because  his  scheme  of  farm  underdrainage  discharged 
into  the  deep  open  ditch  along  this  sideline  road.  As  he  put  his  objection 
when  testifying  he  was  "opposed  to  the  permanent  closure  of  the  road."  But 
what  the  applicant  municipality  aims  at  is  the  abandonment  of  the  bridge 
while  leaving  the  road  allowance  open  and  available  as  it  is  now  for  public  use 
and  for  his  drainage.  If  in  the  future  by  other  and  very  different  proceedings 
the  Township  seeks  to  close  up  the  road,  Mr.  Lang  may  then  formulate  his 
objections  to  the  Township  Council,  and  claim  redress.  Other  property  owners 
in  the  neighbourhood  testified  to  the  needlessness  of  reconstructing  the  bridge — 
Mr.  Morly  Wade,  former  owner  of  the  Ferguson  farm,  and  Mr.  Alexander  Brown, 
a  land  owner  on  the  north  side  of  the  telephone  road. 

It  is  to  be  noted  that  all  the  members  of  Council  since  the  bridge  was  carried 
away  have  been  agreed  that  the  convenience  of  the  public  did  not  call  for  the 
reconstruction  of  the  bridge — Ex-Reeve  Carruthers  and  Reeve  Holdsworth 
testified  to  this  effect.  The  Board  is  confirmed  in  its  conclusion  as  presently 
set  out  by  the  fact  that  as  a  result  of  the  recent  operation  of  "The  Highway 
Improvement  Act,"  the  district  in  which  this  bridge  is  situated  is  admirably 
served  with  highways ;  the  First  and  Second  Concession  Roads  which  are  linked 
together  by  sidelines,  the  Morton  and  Simpson  roads,  and  by  the  highway 
between  the  Townships  of  Hamilton  and  Hope. 

From  the  concurrent  testimony  summarized  above,  and  having  had  a 
view,  the  Board  has  had  little  difficulty  in  reaching  the  conclusion  that  in  the 
words  of  the  statute,  "the  bridge  is  no  longer  required  for  the  public  convenience." 
The  evidence  submitted  by  Mr.  Maybee  and  Mrs.  Johnston  falls  far  short  of 
meeting  the  case  made  by  the  Township. 

The  Board,  having  reached  the  conclusion  that  without  prejudice  to  the 
public  convenience  this  bridge  may  be  abandoned,  has  considered  the  further 
question  suggested  by  subsection  (10)  of  section  460,  whether  the  Board  should 
grant  the  Township  relief  on  terms  of  compensating  Mr.  Maybee  and  Mrs. 
Johnston  for  any  loss  sustained  by  them  by  reason  of  the  failure  to  reconstruct 
the  bridge.  No  evidence  assuming  to  fix  the  quantum  of  damage  sustained 
by  them  has  been  submitted  to  the  Board,  so  that  if  the  Board  had  reached 
the  conclusion  that  it  is  a  case  for  terms  under  subsection  (10),  any  attempt  to 
appraise  the  damage  sustained  would  be  a  mere  guess.  The  Board  is  by  no 
means  satisfied  that  these  landowners  are  appreciably  damnified  by  the  failure 
to  reconstruct  the  bridge.  They  are  well  served  by  highways  easily  accessible 
from  their  farm.  Their  farm  abuts  on  the  telephone  road,  an  excellent  highway 
in  good  repair,  with  it  is  true  some  steep  grades,  but  this  arises  from  the  hilly 
nature  of  the  country,  and  is  unavoidable.  The  telephone  road  leads  east  and 
west  from  the  claimants'  farm  towards  Cobourg  and  Port  Hope,  alternative 
market  towns.  If  the  Claimaints'  choose  they  may  reach  the  Provincial  highway 
from  the  telephone  road  by  the  sideline  between  the  Townships  of  Hamilton 
and  Hope  on  the  west,  distant  only  one-half  mile,  or  on  the  east  by  either  the 
Morton  or  the  Simpson  sidelines,  distant  only  three-quarters  of  a  mile  and 
one  and  a  quarter  miles  respectively. 

One  matter  to  be  considered  in  cases  like  this  is  the  effect  upon  convenient 
access  to  schools.  Here  it  appears  that  an  available  school  may  be  had  either 
south  or  north  of  the  telephone  road — that  south  being  one-quarter  of  a  mile 


90 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

nearer  to  the  telephone  road.  If  the  southerly  school  is  rendered  impossible 
or  difficult  of  access  by  the  non-repair  of  the  bridge,  there  remains  the  northerly 
school  which  it  appears  the  children  affected  are  now  attending  by  grace  of  the 
trustees.  No  doubt  if  necessary  the  ratepayers  affected  might  be  transferred 
into  the  northerly  school  section. 

In  the  result  the  Board  concludes  that  an  Order  should  issue  relieving 
the  Township  from  all  obligation  to  repair  this  bridge,  and  that  such  relief  should 
be  unconditional  and  without  terms. 

There  will  be  no  costs  to  either  party,  but  the  Applicant,  the  Township  of 
Hamilton,  will  pay  $15.00  in  law  stamps  on  the  Order.

Opinion 

This  application  was  heard  at  the  City  Hall,  in  the  City  of  Hamilton,  on 
the  28th  day  of  May,  A.D.  1925,  at  which  the  petitioners  were  represented  by 
Mr.  C.  A.  P.  Powis,  and  the  City  by  Mr.  F.  R.  Waddell,  K.C.,  City  Solicitor. 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 91 

After  hearing  what  was  said  by  the  City  Solicitor  and  the  City  Engineer 
on  behalf  of  the  City,  and  by  Mr.  Powis  on  behalf  of  the  petitioners,  the  Board 
had  a  view  of  Hess  Street,  not  only  between  Main  and  Bold  Streets,  but  some 
little  distance  farther  on. 

The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  the  street  requires  repaying  as  the  pave- 
ment is  badly  worn,  and  as  the  tracks  upon  the  street  project  in  many  places 
above  the  worn-out  pavement.  In  addition  to  this  the  residents  on  the  street 
within  the  next  four  blocks  have  petitioned  for  repavement  of  their  portion  of 
the  street,  and  should  the  work  be  proceeded  with  it  would  involve  the  relaying 
of  the  tracks,  and  should  include  the  part  of  the  street  petitioned  against. 

The  Board  is  of  opinion  that  the  work  is  necessary-,  and  the  petition  is 
therefore  dismissed. 

The  City  of  Hamilton  will  pay  SI 5. 00  for  law  stamp,  the  Board's  tariff 
fee  herein.      This  sum  may  be  added  to  the  cost  of  the  work.

Street  South,  between  Main  and  Bold  Streets,  in  the  City  of  Hamilton,  and 
upon  hearing  the  evidence  adduced  and  what  was  alleged  by  the  petitioners  and 
by  Counsel  for  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Hamilton,  and  judgment  having 
been  reserved  until  this  day, 

This  Board  doth  order  that  the  abo\e  petition  be  and  the  same  is  hereby

And  this  Board  doth  further  order  that  there  shall  be  no  costs  to  any  party 
to  the  application,  but  the  Corporation  of  the  City  of  Hamilton  shall  pay  the

Report 


From  statements  made  the  matter  of  a  new  power  development  has  been 
under  consideration  for  several  years,  during  which  time  three  or  four  schemes 
have  been  reported  upon — one  by  the  Ontario  Hydro — practically  the  same 
as  that  recommended  by  the  Barber  report,  but  at  an  estimated  cost  of  $117,000; 
one  by  J.  B.  McRae  of  Ottawa,  estimated  to  cost  about  $80,000,  and  a  different 
scheme  from  the  Barber  one;  and  a  third,  the  Barber  one,  to  cost  $47,000. 

There  is  opposition  to  every  scheme,  although  it  appears  to  be  admitted 
that  the  Barber  scheme  is  the  better  one.  It  is  certainly  ver>'  largely  the  cheapest. 
The  opposition  urged  that  the  Board's  approval  to  the  By-law  be  refused  in 
order  that  the  property  owners  could  vote  upon  it.  A  number  of  ratepayers 
take  the  ground  that  no  new  power  development  at  all  is  needed.  From  a 
view  which  I  took  of  the  locus  I  am  not  of  this  opinion.  Drury  of  the  Ontario 
Hydro  approves  of  scheme  and  also  of  acceptance  of  Barber's  tender  on  the 
ground  that  the  price  is  largely  below  his  (Drury's)  estimate.  Ontario  Hydro, 
or  J.  B.  McRae,  Hydro  Engineer  of  Ottawa,  will  supervise  construction.  The 
Mayor  gave  an  undertaking  to  this  effect. 

After  hearing  all  the  parties  and  viewing  the  Jociis  I  do  not  think  sufficient 
has  been  shown  to  justify  the  Board  in  refusing  to  approve  the  By-law.  On 
the  contrary,  I  think  the  project  is  one  which  should  be  adopted,  and  the  esti- 
mated cost  and  the  price  at  which  the  work  has  been  tendered  for  appear  to 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 93 

be  as  low  and  reasonable  as  could  possibly  be  expected.     Under  all  the  circum- 
stances I  recommend  that  the  By-law  be  approved.

96 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

attended  at  the  Town  Hall,  in  the  Town  of  Ingersoll,  on  Friday,  June  26th, 
A.D.  1925,  for  the  purpose  of  enquiring  into  the  matter  of  the  petition  of  D. 
Garlick  and  others,  under  section  9  of  "The  Local  Improvement  Act,"  against 
the  construction  of  a  permanent  pavement  on  Bell  Street,  in  the  Town  of  Inger- 
soll, and  having  heard  the  statements  and  evidence  submitted  on  behalf  of  the 
parties  interested,  now  reports  as  follows: 
The  petitioners  were  represented  by: 
Lawrence  Pickard, 
W.  C.  Foreman  and 
Hugh  Moon. 
The  Town  of  Ingersoll  by: 

His  Worship  Mayor  M.  E.  Scott, 
W.  R.  Smith,  Town  Clerk, 

M.   J.   Comeskey,   Chairman   Finance  Committee,   and   F.  J.   Mure, 
Tow^n  Engineer. 
The  work  in  question  is  the  construction  of  a  concrete  pavement  twenty-three 
and  a  half  feet  wide,  with  the  necessary  curbs,  on  Bell  Street  from  Thames 
Street  to  Cashel  Street,  the  estimated  cost  of  which  is  as  follows; — 

5,429  square  vards  paveir.ent  at  $2.10 $11,400  90 

2,300  lineal  feet  of  curb  at  30  cents 690  00 

Culvert 425  00 

Storm  sewers,  catch  basins  and  drains 2,400  00 

Raising  and  repairing  sidewalks 100  00 

Total  estimated  cost $15,015  90 

The  town's  share  of  said  cost  is  as  follows: 

One-third  of  private  frontage $4,030  30 

E.xemptions  and  intersections 1,262  80 

Storm  sewers,  drains,  culvert  and  sidewalk  repairs 2,925  00 

Total  town's  share $8,218  10 

Private  frontage: — 

The  total  amount  charged  to  private  frontage  is  $6,797.80. 

The  estimated  rate  per  foot  frontage  from  Thomas  Street  to  Union 

Street  is  SL87,  and  from  Union  Street  to  Cashel  Street  is  $2.07. 

The  total  amount  of  exempt  frontage  is  119  feet. 

The  life  of  the  above  improvement  is  fifteen  years,  and  the  number  of 

annual  payments  will  be  fifteen. 

The  width  of  Bell  Street  is  said  to  be  49  feet  6  inches. 

The  width  of  the  pavement,  23  feet  6  inches. 

And  the  depth  of  the  concrete  73^  inches  in  the  centre,  tapering  down 

to  6  inches  on  the  sides  to  the  curb. 

The  above  estimated  cost  of  this  work  will  be  considerably  reduced 

by  reason  of  the  contract  just  entered  into  with  a  Hamilton  contracting 

company.     Their  rate  per  foot  frontage  from  Thames  Street  to  Union 

Street  is  $1.50,  or  37  cents  per  foot  less  than  the  above  estimate,  and 

the  rate  between  Union  and  Cashel  Streets,  $1.66,  or  41  cents  per 

foot  less  than  the  estimate. 

Bell  Street  is  one  of  the  streets  which  form  a  link  of  the  Provincial  highway 
through  the  town.  In  1922  the  Highway  Department  of  the  Government  put 
down  a  concrete  pavement  between  the  westerly  limit  of  the  town  to  Cashel 
Stj»eet  (some  3,000  feet)  and  the  present  work  is  to  connect  with  it.  The  parties 
herein  claim  to  have  made  very  energetic  efforts  to  induce  the  Department  to 
continue  the  construction  of  this  link  through  the  town  at  Government  expense, 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 97 

but  without  success,  owing  to  a  change  in  Government  policy  affecting  separated 
towns  and  cities. 

The  petitioners  do  not  take  exception  to  the  work  being  done,  their  con- 
tention is  against  the  manner  in  which  it  is  undertaken,  namely  the  special 
rate  per  foot  frontage;  that  it  being  a  link  in  the  Provincial  system  it  should 
be  made  a  general  rate  on  the  municipality  as  a  whole,  and  put  into  the  general 
tax  rate.  In  their  arguments  at  the  hearing,  however,  they  went  further  than 
this  by  declaring  that  the  pavement  should  be  constructed  at  Government 
expense. 

The  general  local  improvement  policy  of  the  Town  of  Ingersoll  is  to  include 
in  its  share  of  the  cost  of  the  work  one-third  of  the  private  frontage,  this  allowance 
to  the  frontagers  I  consider  very  liberal,  but  the  fact  that  this  allowance  is 
general  and  applicable  to  purely  residential  streets  where  traffic  is  light  causes 
one  to  suggest  the  propriety  of  reducing  the  rate  per  foot  to  the  frontagers  on 
Bell  Street  from  sixty-six  and  two-thirds  per  cent,  to  sixty  per  cent.,  or  in  other 
words  a  thirty  per  cent,  rate  chargeable  to  each  side  of  the  street  by  reason 
of  the  anticipated  heavy  traffic  over  Bell  Street,  and  I  so  recommend. 

And  that  the  Board  make  no  Order  for  costs,  save  and  except  that  the 
Town  shall  pay  SI 5.00  for  the  law  stamps  required  for  this  Order. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

(Sgd.)  A.  B.  Ingram, 

Vice-  Chairman . 
Dated  at  Toronto  this  27th  day  of  June,  A.D.  1925.

cost  in  any  event,  and  that  the  remainder  of  the  cost  shall  be  apportioned  between 

the  property  owners  and  the  Corporation  of  the  Town  of  Ingersoll  as  follows: — 

Sixty  per  cent,  upon  the  lots  abutting  directly  on  the  work  according 

to  the  extent  of  their  respective  frontages  thereon  by  an  equal  special  rate 

per  foot  of  such  frontage  sufficient  to  defray  such  proportion  of  the  cost 

and  40  per  cent,  upon  the  Corporation  of  the  Town  of  Ingersoll. 

And  the  Board  makes  no  Order  as  to  costs  save  and  except  that  the  Board's 

fee,  $15.00  for  law  stamps  on  this  Order,  be  paid  by  the  Corporation  of  the 

Town  of  Ingersoll,  which  amount  may  be  charged  as  a  part  of  the  cost  of  the 

local  improvement  work.

Chamber,  City  Hall,  Ottawa.  (Mr.  Commissioner  Ellis  authorized  under 
section  9,  chapter  186,  R.S.O.) 

Sept.  15th.     Report  of  Mr.  Commissioner  Ellis  filed  and  adopted. 

Report 

The  proposed  sidewalk  is  to  be  constructed  on  the  east  side  of  Parkdale 
Avenue  in  the  City  of  Ottawa,  opposite  Blocks  Nos.  1,  2,  10,  17  and  24.  The 
Petitioners  are  the  owners  of  all  the  land  except  Block  24,  which  is  owned  by 
the  City  of  Qttawa  and  upon  which  the  Civic  Hospital  is  erected.  There  is  no 
sidewalk  on  the  west  side  of  Parkdale  Avenue  nor  is  it  proposed  to  construct 
one  at  present.  A  house  is  erected  upon  Block  2,  but  Blocks  1,  10  and  17  are 
vacant  lands.  These  blocks  have  been  subdivided,  but  it  was  claimed  by  the 
Petitioners  that  there  is  no  demand  for  them  at  present  and  probably  will  not 
be  for  some  years. 

The  estimated  cost  of  the  work  is  $3,826.40,  of  which  the  Corporation's 
share  is  $1,184.80  and  the  ratepayers'  share  is  $2,641.60. 

It  appears  to  me  that  it  is  proposed  now  to  construct  the  sidewalk  in  ques- 
tion in  order  to  accommodate  pedestrian  traffic  to  and  from  the  civic  hospital, 
and  I  have  come  to  the  conclusion  that  the  sidewalk  would  probably  not  have 
been  initiated  for  two  or  three  years  had  it  not  been  for  the  necessity  for  making 
provision  at  once  for  this  traffic. 

There  is  no  doubt  that  the  sidewalk  will  benefit  the  lands  of  the  Petitioners 
even  though  so  far  as  they  are  concerned  the  construction  of  it  is  not  immedi- 
ately required.  Under  the  circumstances  I  recommend  that,  in  addition  to  the 
Corporation's  share  of  the  cost  of  the  work,  the  Corporation  should  pay  25  per 
cent,  of  what  would  otherwise  be  the  ratepayers'  share  of  the  cost  of  the  work, 
and  that  upon  this  condition  the  Petition  should  be  dismissed,  the  City  to  pay 
for  law  stamps  amounting  to  $15.00,  which  is  to  be  charged  to  the  cost  of  the 
work.

Opixiox  of  the  Board 

In  the  matter  of  an  application  made  to  the  Board  by  J.  R.  Tourangeau 
for  an  Order  directing  the  Council  of  the  Municipal  Corporation  of  the  Town 
of  Ford  City  to  carry  out  the  provisions  of  By-law  No.  628  to  the  extent  required 
by  the  Applicant,  or  to  make  such  other  Order  as  to  the  Board  may  seem  proper 
in  regard  to  the  construction  of  water  mains  under  "The  Local  Improvement 
Act,"  and  amendments  thereto. 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD  107 

By-law  No.  628  was  passed  by  the  Municipal  Council  of  the  Township  of 
Sandwich  East  on  the  26th  day  of  July,  A.D.  1915.  Subsequently  to  the  passing 
of  the  By-law,  this  portion  of  the  Township  of  Sandwich  East  covered  by  the 
By-law  was  annexed  by  an  Order  of  this  Board  dated  the  30th  day  of  July, 
A.D.  1915,  to  the  Town  of  Ford  City,  and  the  district  is  now  under  the  jurisdic- 
tion of  the  Town  of  Ford  City,  and  comprises  part  of  the  territory  included 
within  the  limits  of  the  Town. 

On  receipt  of  the  application  the  Board  expressed  some  doubt  as  to  its 
jurisdiction  to  entertain  the  application,  and  directed  that  an  appointment  be 
made  for  a  hearing  in  the  Board's  Chambers  to  hear  argument  in  regard  to  the 
preliminary  question  of  the  Board's  jurisdiction  herein. 

Pursuant  to  appointment,  Mr.  F.  D.  Davis,  K.C.,  appeared  for  the  Appli- 
cant, and  Mr.  W.  H.  Furlong  for  the  Respondent,  and  after  hearing  argument 
by  Counsel  the  Board  reserved  judgment  until  this  da}'. 

The  Board,  after  careful  consideration  of  the  argument,  authorities  adduced 
and  the  material  filed,  is  of  the  opinion  that  it  is  without  jurisdiction  to  deter- 
mine the  matter  in  dispute  between  the  parties  herein. 

The  application  will  be  dismissed,  but  without  costs. 

The  application  having  failed  for  want  of  jurisdiction  in  the  Board,  there 
will  be  no  fee  for  law  stamps  on  the  Order  dismissing.

Commissioners  for  the  Telephone  System  of  the  Municipality  of  Medonte  to 
be  considered. 


no  THE  REPORT  OF  THE  No.  24 

The  evidence  of  Mr.  Paris  in  support  of  the  application  of  the  Uhthoff 
Telephone  Company  was  very  brief,  being  as  follows: 

"As  far  as  we  are  concerned,  our  reason  for  asking  to  give  free  service 
is  because  they  (the  railways)  refuse  to  pay  for  the  service,  and  we  cannot 
afford  to  have  the  telephone  taken  out  of  the  station.  Rather  than  lose 
the  service,  which  is  quite  a  benefit  to  our  Company,  we  decided  to  keep 
the  'phone  in  if  possible."  (Page  3,  Notes  of  Proceedings.) 
On  behalf  of  the  railways,  Mr.  McMurchy  and  Mr.  Groves  both  stated 
that  neither  Company  have  found  it  necessary  to  have  the  telephone  in  their 
respective  stations  at  Uhthoff.     Mr.  McMurchy,  however,  stated: 

"Where  we  operate  in  competition  with  the  Canadian  National,  and 
we  find  that  as  a  matter  of  business  it  pays  to  have  a  municipal  telephone, 
this  Company  does  not  hesitate  to  pay  for  that  'phone,  and  as  far  as  I  am 
aware  that  is  the  practice,  but  where  it  is  a  domestic  matter  we  see  no 
reason  why  we  should  pay."     (Page  4,  Notes  of  Proceedings.) 

Referring  to  the  situation  at  Uhthoff,  Mr.  McMurchy  stated  further: 

"The  situation  of  this  station  is  such  that  neither  Company  have 
found  it  necessary  to  have  a  telephone.  .  .  .  This  is  a  comparatively  new 
line,  it  is  a  grain  line  from  Port  McNichol.  This  is  not  a  case  where  the 
competition  is  such  that  either  Company  has  to  pay  for  a  telephone." 
(Page  13,  Notes  of  Proceedings.) 

An  exhibit  filed  by  Mr.  McMurchy  (exhibit  No.  1,  P.P.  A-222)  showed 
that  on  November  18th  there  were  two  calls  from  the  station  and  six  calls  to 
the  station.  While  Mr.  McMurchy  contended  that  only  one  of  these  calls  was 
on'',,the  Company's  business,  an  examination  of  the  exhibit  shows  that  five  of 
the  eight  calls  recorded  had  reference  to  freight  or  express.  One  call  was  for 
the  correct  time,  and  of  the  remaining  two  calls  one  was  an  enquiry  as  to  the 
arrival  of  the  train,  and  another  as  to  whether  a  party  of  hunters  had  returned 
on  the  train.  With  the  exception,  therefore,  of  the  call  for  the  correct  time,  it 
would  appear  that  all  the  calls  made  had  reference  to  freight,  express  or  passenger 
service. 

A  statement  furnished  by  the  Applicant  at  the  request  of  the  Board  sets 
forth  that  the  average  number  of  calls  per  day  to  the  Uhthoff  Canadian  Pacific 
Railway  station  is  eight,  and  from  the  station  six.  The  calls  to  the  Canadian 
National  Railway  station  were  ten,  and  from  the  station  eight. 

In  regard  to  the  application  of  the  Medonte  Municipal  Telephone  System, 
the  evidence  of  Mr.  Robinson  is  in  part  as  follows: 

"There  are  three  railway  stations  in  our  Township,  and  we  wrote  to 
the  Railway  Company  asking  them  to  pay,  or  we  would  be  obliged  to  take 
the  telephones  out,  and  they  agreed  to  pay  in  Eadey  and  Carley.  .  .  . 
The  Company  refused  to  pay  at  any  one  of  these  stations.  They  have 
paid  us  $10.00  per  annum,  at  two  of  the  stations— the  first  payment  we 
ever  got  in  fourteen  years'  service.  We  do  quite  a  lot  of  business  with  the 
Village  of  Hillsdale  and  they  do  all  their  business  at  Craighurst  station. 
The  reason  we  are  making  this  application  is  that  we  do  not  want  the 
'phone  taken  out  of  the  station  at  Craighurst,  our  subscribers  would  not 
like  that,  but  we  would  like  to  have  our  pay  just  the  same."  (Pages  20 
and  21,  Notes  of  Proceedings.) 

Prom  the  evidence  adduced  it  would  appear  that  at  the  present  time  three 
systems  have  telephones  installed  at  Craighurst  Station,  viz.: 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD lU 

L  The  Applicant  (The  Medone  Municipal  Telephone  System); 

2.  The  Flos  Municipal  Telephone  System ; 

3.  The  Crown  Hill  Telephone  Company,  Limited. 

No  one  of  these  systems  is  being  paid  for  telephone  service.  The  Crown 
Hill  Telephone  Company,  Limited,  would,  however,  appear  to  be  the  successor 
of  the  Bell  Telephone  Company  which  formerly  had  a  telephone  in  this  station. 
The  Bell  line  was  purchased  by  the  Crown  Hill  Company,  and  the  telephone 
service  formerly  furnished  by  the  Bell  Company  was  continued,  but  without 
payment  therefor.  It  was  not  contended  by  Mr.  McMurchy,  however,  that 
the  Bell  Company  were  not  paid  for  service  furnished  by  it  at  Craighurst  Station, 
his  statement  being  as  follows: 

"I  think  the  Bell  gave  us  value.  They  gave  us  telephone  service 
during  the  construction  period,  and  we  gave  them  railway  service.  Then 
when  the  construction  period  was  over,  as  business  men,  both  sides  said 
'we  will  pay  for  what  we  are  getting';  then  when  the  Bell  sold  out  to  the 
local  company  there  was  a  fuss,  and  the  local  Company  came  to  the  Railway 
Commission  and  said  'now  we  want  these  telephones  to  remain  there,'  and 
the  Railway  Company  said  'as  they  are  local  companies  and  do  not  give 
long  distance  service  we  do  not  find  these  telephones  necessary  to  have  in 
our  business,'  the  result  being  that  three  telephones  were  put  in  our  station 
free."     (Page  24,  Notes  of  Proceedings.) 

It  may  be  noted  that  Mr.  McMurchy's  contention  that  the  local  companies 
did  not  give  long  distance  service  is  not  correct.  As  a  matter  of  fact  each  of 
the  three  systems  connected  at  Craighurst  Station,  by  agreement  with  the  Bell 
Telephone  Company,  is  furnishing  long  distance  service  to  their  subscribers 
under  the  same  conditions,  and  at  the  established  rates  of  the  Bell  Company 
as  approved  by  the  Board  of  Railway  Commissioners  for  Canada. 

It  must  be  admitted  that  the  conditions  at  Craighurst  are  somewhat  unusual, 
but  these  conditions  have  no  bearing  upon  the  question  at  issue.  It  may  or 
may  not  be  necessary  for  the  purpose  of  its  business  for  the  railway  to  pay  for 
the  service  of  three  telephone  systems  at  this  point.  It  may  be  noted,  however, 
that  each  of  these  systems  serves  a  different  locality  reaching  a  large  number 
of  people,  and  it  may  well  be  that  the  business  to  be  obtained  from  each  of  these 
systems  would  justify  the  railway's  expenditure.  The  following  are  the  systems 
with  the  number  of  telephones  on  each: 

Telephones 
L  The  Medonte  Municipal  Telephone  System 451 

2.  The  Flos  Municipal  Telephone  System 575 

3.  The  Crown  Hill  Telephone  Co.,  Ltd 120 

By  means  of  the  Crown  Hill  System  the  Railway  has  also  free  service  with 
the  Bell  subscribers  at  Barrie,  including  the  subscribers  of  the  Vespra  Municipal 
Telephone  System  (193  telephones)  and  the  Barrie-Angus  Telephone  Company 
(43  telephones).  It  is  moreover  unnecessary  for  there  to  be  three  telephones 
at  this  station,  as  one  telephone  with  a  three-line  switch  would  serve  the  same 
purpose. 

An  exhibit  (exhibit  No.  2,  P.F.  A-224)  submitted  by  Mr.  McMurchy  shows 
the  following  calls: 

November  17th,  Medonte  System nine  calls. 

Flos  System five  calls. 

Crown  Hill  System one  call. 


in THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

All  the  above  calls  were  by  subscribers  enquiring  re  freight  and  express. 

November  18th,  Medonte  System six  calls  re  freight  and  express. 

Crown  Hill  System four  calls,  enquiring  re  freight 

and  express,  also  trains. 

Flos  System three  calls — no  information  as 

to  the  nature  of  business. 
A  statement  furnished  by  the  Applicant  at  the  request  of  the  Board  sets 
forth  that  the  average  daily  calls  to  and  from  this  station  by  the  Applicant's 
system  are  as  follows: 

To  the  station eleven  calls. 

From  the  station six  calls. 

Mr.  Ludwig,  on  behalf  of  the  Canadian  Independent  Telephone  Association, 
of  which  it  may  be  noted  both  applicant  systems  are  members,  contended  that 
railways  are  commercial  institutions  and,  being  so,  are  not  entitled  to  free 
telephone  service.     In  the  course  of  his  argument  he  stated: 

"That  section  (section  89a)  means  what  it  says,  there  shall  be  no  dis- 
crimination.    'Shall'  is  a  word  which  really  leaves  no  option.     True  it  says 
'except  with  the  approval  of  the  Board,'  but  we  start  out  with  the  idea 
that  the  Legislature  intended  that  there  should  be  no  discrimination.     I 
can  imagine  that  the  Board  might  very  well  say  that  the  Secretary  of  a 
Company  might  have  free  telephone  service;   it  might  also  be  right  that  a 
public  institution  such  as  a  hospital  might  be  considered  an  exceptional 
case,  and  be  permitted  to  have  a  free  'phone.     My  submission  is  that  under 
no   circumstances   whatsoever,   where    it   is   a   money-making   institution, 
should  there  be  a  free  'phone."     (Pages  8  and  9,  Notes  of  Proceedings.) 
The  foregoing  sets  out  clearly  the  facts  in  regard  to  the  applications  of  the 
UhthofT  and  the  Medonte  Municipal  Telephone  Systems,  in  accordance  with  the 
evidence  submitted  on  behalf  of  the  Applicants  and  the  Railways.     As,  how- 
ever, the  decision  of  the  Board  in  respect  of  these  two  applications  will  form  a 
precedent  affecting  the  furnishing  of  telephone  service  in  all  railway  stations  in 
Ontario,  it  is  necessary  to  consider  the  following  facts  as  having  an  important 
bearing  upon  this  question: 

Section  89a  of  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918,"  (14-15  Geo.  V,  c.  52, 
s.  14),  which  is  the  section  under  w^hich  these  applications  have  been  made, 
became  law  on  April  17th,  1924.  In  August,  1924,  every  telephone  system 
within  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Board  was  requested  to  furnish  particulars  of  all 
service  furnished  without  charge  or  at  reduced  rates.  In  response  to  this 
request  replies  were  received  from  370  systems  out  of  a  total  of  640.  A  summary 
of  these  replies  shows  the  following  free  service  being  furnished  in  railway 
stations : 

Canadian  National  Railways 86  stations 

Canadian  Pacific  Railway 64 

Michigan  Central  Railway 1 

Pere  Marquette  Railway 1 

London  and  Port  Stanley  Railway 1 

In  view  of  the  amount  of  free  service  furnished  to  the  Canadian  National 
and  Canadian  Pacific  Railways,  it  is  reasonable  to  seek  for  an  explanation  of 
this  condition  of  affairs.     The  following  furnishes  an  answer  to  this  question : 

Prior  to  1905,  agreements  executed  between  the  Bell  Telephone  Company  of 
Canada  and  the  Canadian  Pacific  and  the  Grand  Trunk  Railways  (the  last 
named  being  now  a  part  of  the  Canadian  National  Railway  System)  gave  the 


1926 RAILWAY  AND  MUNICIPAL  BOARD 113 

first  named  company  the  exclusive  right  to  instal  and  operate  a  telephone  in 
stations  on  these  railways.  These  agreements  were  subsequently  cancelled,  but 
the  railways  continued  to  refuse  to  permit  the  installation  of  a  telephone  in  any 
station  where  a  Bell  telephone  was  already  installed. 

At  that  time  the  independent  telephone  companies  and  municipal  systems 
were  competing  with  the  Bell  Telephone  Company,  a  condition  which  no  longer 
prevails.  In  1909,  one  of  these  competing  companies — The  Consolidated  Tele- 
phone Company  of  Caledon — applied  to  the  Board  of  Railway  Commissioners 
for  Canada  for  an  Order  requiring  the  Canadian  Pacific  Railway  to  permit  the 
installation  of  a  telephone  in  Caledon  Station,  and  the  railway  opposed  the 
application.  The  Board  of  Railway  Commissioners,  while  admitting  that  its 
jurisdiction  extended  only  to  the  Railway  Company,  suggested  an  agreement 
under  which  the  Railway  Company  should  allow  the  Telephone  Company  to 
instal  a  telephone  in  the  station  upon  payment  to  the  Railway  of  an  easement 
of  $1.00  per  annum.  This  suggestion  being  accepted  by  the  Caledon  Company, 
the  Board  issued  a  General  Order  applying  to  similar  cases,  this  Order  being 
binding  upon  the  Railway  wherever  the  Telephone  Company  agreed  to  the 
terms  suggested  in  the  Caledon  case.  As  a  result  of  this  Order  the  railways 
referred  to  have,  with  possibly  a  few  exceptions,  refused  to  pay  any  telephone 
system  in  Ontario,  other  than  the  Bell  Telephone  Company,  for  telephone  ser- 
vice, and  until  the  enactment  of  section  89a  of  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act" 
have  required  each  telephone  company  or  municipality  desiring  connection  with 
a  railway  station  to  execute  an  agreement  similar  to  that  suggested  by  the 
Board  of  Railway  Commissioners  for  Canada  in  1909. 

It  is  not  conceivable  that  the  Order  of  the  Board  of  Railway  Commissioners 
for  Canada  referred  to  herein  was  intended  to  apply  to  non-competitive  con- 
ditions, or  was  meant  to  be  used  by  the  railways  as  a  means  of  forcing  the  sys- 
tems within  the  jurisdiction  of  this  Board  to  furnish  the  railways  with  free 
telephone  service  at  points  where  such  service  was  necessary,  and  where  there 
were  no  competitive  telephone  systems  in  operation. 

While  the  replies  to  the  Board's  enquiry  re  free  service  are  no  doubt  incom- 
plete, it  is  significant  from  records  furnished  to  the  Board,  that  other  railways, 
such  as  the  Michigan  Central  and  Pere  Marquette  and  the  Toronto,  Hamilton 
and  Bufi"alo  Railways,  with  the  exception  of  two  stations,  are  paying  for  tele- 
phone service  at  all  points. 

The  Board's  records  also  show  that  since  the  enactment  of  the  legislation 
referred  to  herein  a  number  of  telephone  systems  throughout  the  Province  have 
notified  the  Canadian  Pacific  and  Canadian  National  Railways  of  their  intention 
to  discontinue  free  service  and  remove  the  telephone.  In  the  majority  of  these 
cases,  the  railways  have  agreed  to  continue  the  service  and  pay  therefor  at  the 
rates  as  approved  by  this  Board.  There  are,  however,  a  large  number  of  sys- 
tems still  furnishing  free  service  in  railway  stations,  contrary  to  the  provisions 
of  section  89a. 

The  Board  is  of  the  opinion  that  these  applications  should  be  dismissed 
for  the  following  reasons: 

1.  The  intention  of  section  89a  of  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act"  would 
appear  to  be  that  free  service  should  only  be  approved  by  the  Board  where  such 
free  service  does  not  constitute  discrimination  in  favour  of  or  against  any  person, 
company  or  corporation. 

2.  A  railway,  being  a  commercial  undertaking  operating  for  profit,  is  not 
entitled  under  the  Act  to  preferential  treatment  in  the  matter  of  telephone 
service,   therefore  the  furnishing  of  free  telephones  in  stations  would  be  dis- 


114 THE   REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

crimination  aga'nst  other  persons,  companies  and  corporations  paying  for  such 
service. 

3.  Many  telephone  systems  within  the  jurisdiction  of  this  Board  are  being 
paid  for  telephone  service  furnished  to  stations  of  the  Canadian  Pacific  and 
Canadian  National  Railways,  therefore  the  failure  to  pay  for  similar  service 
furnished  by  other  systems  would  be  discrimination  against  such  other  systems. 

4.  To  permit  the  Canadian  Pacific  and  Canadian  National  Railways  to  be 
furnished  with  free  telephone  service  would  be  discrimination  against  those 
other  railways  in  Ontario  which  have  always  paid  for  such  service. 

5.  It  would  appear  to  be  a  fact  not  denied  by  the  railways  that  in  every 
case  where  a  Bell  Telephone  is  installed  in  the  railway  stations  it  is  paid  for  at 
that  Company's  established  rates,  therefore  the  furnishing  by  companies  within 
the  jurisdiction  of  this  Board  of  free  telephones  in  railway  stations  would  be 
discrimination  in  favour  of  the  Bell  Telephone  Company. 

6.  The  Applicants  do  not  wish  to  furnish  free  telephones  at  railway  stations, 
and  have  admitted  that  the  only  reason  for  making  the  present  application  is 
because  the  telephone  is  a  convenience  to  their  subscribers,  and  the  railway 
company  refuses  to  pay  for  the  service. 

7.  While  it  may  be  admitted  that  a  telephone  in  a  railway  station  is  a 
convenience  to  the  subscribers,  the  same  reasoning  applies  to  many  other  points 
of  connection  in  a  telephone  system,  such  as  doctors,  veterinary  surgeons,  post 
offices,  creameries,  cheese  factories,  etc.  All  these  institutions  are  required  to 
pay  for  telephone  service  and  willingly  do  so  for  the  reason  that  the  benefits 
derived  from  telephone  service  are  reciprocal.  While  telephone  connection 
undoubtedly  brings  business  to  these  institutions,  such  connection  is  also  of 
great  convenience  to  the  subscribers  at  large.  In  other  words,  if  such  inter- 
dependence upon  one  another  did  not  exist,  there  would  be  no  use  for  telephone 
exchanges.  The  same  rule  which  applies  to  these  institutions  applies  equally 
to  railways,  and  there  is  therefore  no  reason  why  an  exception  should  be  made 
in  their  case. 

8.  There  is  no  obligation  upon  the  railways  to  take  telephone  service  at 
points  where  they  decide  that  the  volume  of  business  does  not  justify  the  expen- 
diture. Assuming  to  be  correct  the  contention  of  the  railways  that  there  are 
stations  where  the  railway  does  not  require  telephone  service,  and  that  the 
telephone  is  used  only  by  the  subscribers  upon  social  or  frivolous  matters,  not 
pertaining  to  railway  business,  it  cannot  be  contended  that  the  subscribers 
have  any  claim  upon  the  railways  for  such  service,  and  therefore  the  telephone 
systems  should  not  be  permitted  to  instal  free  service  for  the  purpose  of  imposing 
upon  the  time  and  goodwill  of  a  station  agent. 

9.  Where  it  can  be  shown  that  telephone  connection  with  a  railway  station 
is  necessary  in  the  public  interest  the  Board  of  Railway  Commissioners  for 
Canada  has  authority  (upon  the  application  of  any  interested  party),  pursuant 
to  section  371  of  "The  Railway  Act,"  to  authorize  any  telephone  company  to 
instal  a  telephone  in  any  such  station,  and  to  fix  the  annual  charge  to  be  paid 
by  the  railway  company  for  such  service,  providing  that  such  charge  does  not 
exceed  the  customary  local  rate.  In  the  event  therefore  of  any  railway  refusing 
to  instal  a  telephone  in  any  station,  the  subscribers  of  any  telephone  system 
may  apply  to  the  Board  of  Railway  Commissioners  for  Canada  for  redress. 

For  the  foregoing  reasons  the  Board  dismisses  the  applications  of  the 
Uhthoff  Telephone  Company,  Limited,  and  of  the  Commissioners  for  the  Tele- 
phone System  of  the  Municipality  of  Medonte,  the  other  applications  having 
been  withdrawn  and  dismissed  as  set  out  herein.

And  the  Board  further  orders: 

\.  That  the  Applicant  shall  take  immediate  steps  to  thoroughly  overhaul 
its  system  and  shall  execute  such  reconstruction  and  repairs  thereto  as  the

166 THE  REPORT  OF  THE No.  24 

SYNOPSIS  OF  1925  CAMPAIGN  ONTARIO  SAFETY  LEAGUE 

During  1925,  as  for  a  number  of  years  previously,  we  distributed  over  a  million  pieces 
of  literature  to  school  children,  motorists,  street  car  men,  manufacturers  and  others,  relative  to 
the  prevention  of  fires  and  accidents,  and  earnestly  asking  their  assistance  to  reduce  the  results 
of  these  hazards. 

1925  completed  the  twelfth  year  of  the  League's  existence  and  activities  in  safety  work.  The 
usual  number  of  motion  pictures,  lantern  slides  and  other  publications  have  been  added  to  our 
motion  picture  bureau  and  library.  These  motion  pictures,  lantern  slides  and  books  dealing  with 
accident  and  fire  prevention  have  been  in  constant  circulation  among  our  members.  Motion 
pictures  and  lantern  slides  have  been  shown  in  conjunction  with  safety  talks,  all  over  Ontario,  to 
schools,  and  summer  camps,  members  of  Boards  of  Trade,  Chambers  of  Commerce,  industrial 
workers  and  the  public  generally. 

Again  in  1925,  bulletins  featuring  warnings  to  campers  and  hunters,  were  posted  conspicu- 
ously all  over  Ontario.  These  bulletins  also  emphasized  the  necessity  for  fire  prevention,  per- 
sonal safety  and  forest  conservation. 

In  addition,  we  distributed  safety  bulletins  in  more  than  six  hundred  cities,  towns  and 
villages  throughout  the  Province,  and  in  railway  stations,  street  cars,  garages  and  public  places, 
posters  and  signs  were  erected  dealing  with  the  traffic  hazard. 

The  Safety  Essay  Competition  and  the  Drawing  Contest  were  carried  on  throughout  the 
schools  of  Ontario.     The  results  warrant  the  continuation  of  these  efforts. 

Safety  calendars  were  distributed  and  posted  prominently  all  over  Ontario.  These  calendars 
emphasized  the  necessity  for  industrial  safety,  fire  prevention  and  carefulness,  and  dealt  with 
street  car  intersection  hazards,  resuscitation,  level  crossings,  drowning,  good  housekeeping  in  the 
shop,  falls,  first  aid  and  street  railway  safety. 

Through  the  courtesy  of  the  Toronto  Transportation  Commission,  some  seven  issues  of 
street  car  bulletins,  printed  on  both  sides,  were  exhibited  during  the  year  in  the  Commission's 
cars,  giving  to  the  citizens  of  Toronto  safety  messages  in  an  attractive  form. 
Detail  of  literature  distributed: 

7,000  Special  Street  Car  Bulletins. 
55,400  Industrial  Bulletins. 
84,900  Traffic  and  Electric  Railway  Bulletins. 
360,000  Motorists'  (Marker)  Cards. 
65,000  Special  Bulletins. 
132,000  School  Bulletins. 
188,000  Letters  to  Parents. 
31,325  Sundry  Circulars. 
11,274  Calendars. 
10,000  Special  Cards  and  Reports. 
In  addition  to  above — 

$300.00  in  cash  prizes  was  awarded  in  the  School  Essay  Contest,  and 
$320.00  in  cash  prizes  in  the  School  Cartoon  Contest.

SAFETY  PATROLS 

The  School  Safety  Patrols  have  been  acti\'e  during  the  >'ear.  Numerous  applications  have 
been  received  for  the  formation  of  new  patrols.  The  older  scholars  look  out  for  the  younger 
ones  on  the  street,  and  in  many  instances  have  reported  dangerous  conditions  which  have  been 
remedied. 

Automotive  fatalities  in  the  City  of  Toronto  during  1925  were  43,  as  compared  with  48  in 
1924.     Fatalities  from  all  accidental  causes  in  Toronto  were  212,  as  compared  with  200  in  1924. 

The  Province,  as  a  whole,  during  1925,  from  all  hazards,  shows  the  remarkable  reduction  in 
fatalities  of  67  less  than  in  1924,  as  1,403  is  to  1,470.

The  Board  or  its  Supervisor  of  Telephone  Systems  during  the  year  visited 
seventy-six  different  points  in  the  Province  in  connection  with  the  foregoing 
applications. 

The  continued  policy  of  the  Board  in  endeavouring  to  secure  an  amicable 
settlement  of  matters  in  dispute  between  the  applicant  and  respondent  has, 
with  the  assistance  of  the  Board's  Supervisor,  proved  successful  in  the  majority 
of  such  cases. 

In  addition  to  the  applications  and  complaints  referred  to,  a  vast  amount 
of  correspondence  relating  to  telephone  matters  has  been  dealt  with  by  the 
Board's  Super\-isor,  through  the  medium  of  which  much  information  and  assist -

TELEPHONE  SYSTEMS  No.  24 


ance  has  been  given  to  municipalities,  companies  and  other  persons  interested, 
and  many  difficulties  that  might  otherwise  have  necessitated  a  formal  application 
and  public  hearing  have  been  satisfactorily  adjusted. 

A  number  of  points  were  visited  by  the  Board's  Inspector  of  Telephone 
Service  during  the  year  for  the  purpose  of  investigating  complaints  made  by 
subscribers,  and  upon  his  report  and  recommendation  the  Board  has  been  enabled 
to  secure  considerable  improvement  in  the  telephone  service  furnished  by  the 
systems  coming  under  his  observation. 

The  establishment  of  telephone  systems  by  the  rural  municipalities  under 
the  provisions  of  Part  II  of  "The  Ontario  Telephone  Act,  1918,"  continues  to 
grow  in  favour  with  the  public.  There  are  now  one  hundred  and  fourteen  of 
these  systems  being  operated  or  under  construction.  These  sj'stems  are  furnish- 
ing service  in  two  hundred  and  fifty-six  towns,  villages  and  townships. 

There  are  nine  systems  owned  and  operated  by  municipalities  under  the 
provisions  of  Part  I  of  the  Act,  viz:  The  cities  of  Fort  William  and  Port  Arthur, 
the  towns  of  Cochrane,  Kenora,  Fort  Frances  and  Rainy  River,  and  the  townships 
of  Alberton,  Caledon  and  Hilliard. 

iBl  The  number  of  telephone  systems  of  which  the  Board  has  record  is  six 
hundred  and  twenty-six,  operating  approximately  104,000  telephones  and  re- 
presenting an  investment  of  about  810,100,000.00.  While  the  actual  number  of 
systems  is  less  than  in  1924,  this  is  due  to  the  merging  of  some  of  the  smaller 
systems  for  the  purpose  of  incorporation  under   "The  Ontario  Companies  Act." 

Detailed  statistics  and  other  information  relative  to  the  telephone  systems 
within  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Board  will  be  found  in  the  booklet,  "Telephone 
Systems,  1926,"  published  concurrently  with  this  report.
