mill of, W. Thompson and _
Sons Limited, "the bean people",
are turning out a better grade
pf white pea 'beans than has
been possible with older type
equipment. It is the confident'
exPeetation of the Operators
that the machines" will assist
materially in 'Wilding a larger
market for Canadian white pea
beans, nearly all of which are
grown in Southwestern Ontario.

Mr, 'Thompson points out that
Canadian white pea /beeps—
,practically' all grown in five
counties of Southwestern Onter,
face competition from num-
erous sources in world markets,
and even find• beans from Other
countries - , invading Canada at
times. Such an instance has'
just turned up in British Col-,
tumble, where beans from Chile
are supplying, the market.
The one Way to get the better
of such. .corn*tition, he said, is -
to be able to turn out a higher
quality product—a better grade
of bean. Then on a baSis of
Comparable prices, the Caned-
len bean will get the preference,

were held from the' George E. Log-

make a' study of rats and how
they live) think there are very
few rats that live alone.. They
claim' there's, already a good many
rats arotuirbefore you start see•
ing, them. They use the following
rules of thumb to estimate the
rat population in a barn:
1. If you see'damage, (but no
rats),—there are approximately
20 rats present.
2. If yott • see one or two rats at
nigb.t) (but none in the day-
time) there are '50 rats pres-
ent.
3. There are over 100 rats pres-
ent by tbe time you start see-
ing them in the daytime.
Recent tests carried out. by the
OAC show rats -and mice are far
more common. on Ontario farms
than most people like to believe.
They checked 57 farms in Water-
loo and Grey Counties, and found
rats or mice on every one of them.
The total population on these
farms was estimated to be 2,300
rats and 1,500 mice. The total,
loss amounted to about $1,000 per
farm,
'Chances are, your farm is just
as badly infested as those 57
"average" farms tested by OAC.
If so, your loss is as high as
$1,000/a year. ($20.00 for every
rat).
You can eliminate the loss eas-
ily, quickly and safely by baiting
your farm with warfarin rat-kill.
Farm supply dealers are featuring
warfarin rat-kill as part of the

Next time you're in to your deal-
er's, ask about using it. It will
cost you about $3 to save over
$100.
