A column cites Senator W Ross MacDonald arguing farmers are not yet distressed but facing rising costs and stagnant incomes. It notes farm income dropping from 2.2 billion in 1951 toward 1.672 billion in 1953, while costs rose about five percent. It reports layoffs in farm implement industries and calls for joint action by organized labour and organized agriculture to press the federal government.

Dixon's Remedy and Football Tales Across Europe
An old ad notes Dixon's Remedy and Munro's Drug Store in Elgin with a price. A historical vignette recalls early football spreading in Europe around 1900, where Turkish youths translated rules, were arrested after a Palace spy labeled shirts as uniforms and ball as ammunition, leading to banishment. Egg buyers advertised high prices at Thornbank Poultry Farms in Toronto.
