A six-year extension in call-up ages has been put into effect under a procla- mation tabled in the House of Com- mons by War Services Minister Thor- son which makes single men and child- less widowers 20 to 40 years old, in- clusive, subject to compulsory military service in Canada and its territorial water. All men born in years 1920 to 1922 who W2re single or widowers without•children on July 15, 1940, are liable for call, Mr. Thorson said, but those bprn in 1922 will not be called until they reach the age of 20. Overseas Draft Bill Passes The House of Commons Tuesday night gave second reading to Bill 80 -providing for overseas conscription by proclamation - by a vote of 158 to ,54, as Prime Minister Mackenzie King promised that before the Govern- ment enforces overseas conscription; it will give members of the House of Commons an opportunity "not for any second debate on the question, but of showing their confidence or want of confidence in the administration," 46 Quebec Liberals, iwo Quebec Inde- pendents and C.C.F. members voted against the second reading. Ball players who held out for more money were just being patriotic, of course - they want to pay more in- come tax. * * A psychologist says women are bet- ter liars than men. Oh well, they don't have to tell so many. * * * * Germany's public debt has trebled since the war began. The statistics refer only to money ,of course.

INSURANCE ‘STAMPS IN LARGER AMOUNTS Employers of insurable workers who operate on a semi-monthly or monthly pay period are able to buy insurance stamps in higher denomin- ations than have, in the past, been `obtainable. Mr, R. N. Watt, Manager of the local Employment and Claims Office of the Unemployment Insurance Com- mission, said that the Commission has put into circulation through the Post Offices four denominations of semi- monthly stamps valued respectively at $1.00, $1,11, $1.24, and $1.37, These stamps, said Mr. R. N. Watt. will be used by employers to record contributions in insurance books of employees in the following earning categories:- Those earning $25.00 but less than $82,5,0 in a semi-month; ($1,00 stamp); employer contribution 541/zc, em- ployee contribution 45%c; Those earning $32,50 but less than $43.83 in a semi-month; ($1,11 stamp): employer contribution 59c, employee contribution 52c. Those earning 48.83 less than $56.33 in a Semi-month; ($1,24 startiP); employer contribution 59e, employee contribution 65e Those earning $5e.33 but less than $83.33 in a serni .-month; ($1.37 stamp); employer contribution 59c, employee contribution 78c. It was pointed out by Mr. R. N. Watt; that these stamps are obtain- able from Post Offices in the same way as stamps of lower denominations. Employers in smaller centres desiring to use these stamps will have'to make a specific request to their Post Office to stock them. As for the affixing of the stamp by the employer in the employee's, book, Mrs. R. N. Watt said it should be placed in such a way that it covers the space for the last day of the pay period for. which the contribution is made. It was felt, he added, that the circulation of these stamps would be a convenience to employers who oper- ate on a semi-monthly or monthly pay period. Provide Ample Pasture In August And September (Experimental Farms News) Many farms lack adequate pasture- age for the livestock they are carry- ing. This is particularly true during the mid-summer nionths. Additional pasture in June and July is more easily provided for by seeding oats alone or in combination with other crops. Pasture during the months of August and September may be also provided for by seeding suit- able crops, says F. M. Mowosad, Div- ision of Forage Plants, Central Ex- perimental Farm, Ottawa. Oats at 2 bushels and Sudan grass at 20 pounds per acre seeded between June 15 and 30 will provide pasture during August. One bushel of fall rye added to 2 bushels of oats will also prolong the pasture well into the fall. Millet is another crop that may be seeded late-even as late as July 15 if moisture conditions are favourable. Millet should be seeded with a drill on good, clean warm and well pre- pared land at the rate of 20 to 25 pounds per acre. It may be pastured when it is 10 inches to one foot in height. Additional acreage of corn may, be seeded to provide green feed from about the end of July. Rapt or kale may be seeded for late fall pasture. Seeded when the ground is suitable for sowing grain in the spring and until the end of July, Kale and Rape will be ready for pasturing in 6 to 8 weeks. These two crops have been found to be very satisfac- tory for finishing lambs in fall. While the above crops may be used to good advantage the aftermath front meadows, particularly if alfalfa is present in the mixture, should not be overlooked as a source of additional pasture during August and September. Although timothy was originally a native of Europe, its value was first recognized in North America. It was brought to Maryland about 1'720 by Timothy Hanson, after whom it was named, Doctor (inquiring after boy who has swallowed a half dollar): Row Is the boy',todaY, Nurse: thane yet, Cotton lace or net frocks - so dainty and femine, and made with all the fine detailing that you usually find only in far more expensive dresses.
