Vote to Be Cast
Friday, July 25
BY .t, Car] Hemingway
The clerks throughout Huron
County seem to have done a very
good job of preparing the voters'
lists for July 25th. most cases
the farm organizations did some
revising and a small number of
farmers had their names removed.
If your name was removed you
will receive a letter from the clerk
informing you of this, you feel
your name should be on the list
you can appeal by letter to the
Farm Products Marketing Board,
Parliament Buildings, Toronto. The
hearing is set for July 14, 15 and 16.
If you are to .have a vote you
must meet one of the following re-
quirements: First you may be the
owner of the property on which
the hogs are produced; second you
may be the renter of the property
on which hogs are produced in
which case the tenant will vote
rather than the owner; third a
corporation or partnership may be
engaged in the production of hogs
in which case the deputy returning
officer will be notified of the one
representative who will vote for
that corporation or partnership;
fourth, in case Of joint ownership
the first member to present him-
self at the poll Will vote. •
In no case Will there be more
than one vote for any person, •
As the campaign progresses it
is more and more apparent that
the vast majority of producers
favour . the Hog Marketing Plan.
Being in favour will do nothing to
keep it in' force. You must cast
your ballot. Too many times,farm-
ers have favoured plans in farm
organization and have left "George"
to, do the. work.. Since "George':
knew he had your support he has.
accomplished a surprising amount
for you.
This time "George" can't do it
for you, You will have to mark
your own ballot at the poll on July
25th, This is'the greatest challenge
to your faith in yourselves that has .
ever faced farm people. Let every-
one accept it,
WILD CARROT IS
NOXIOUS WEED
Wild Carrot with, its large lacy
White flowers and fern-ilke leaves
is a common sight along roadsides,
in pastures; parks or meadows; is
often called "Queen Anne's Lace'',
and can be quite attractive for a
brief period during midsummer
The Field Crops Branch of the
Ontario Department of Agriculture
warns however, 'that it is a noxious
Weed in Ontario and steps should
be taken to eliminate it.
Wild Carrot is properly a biennial
plant, producing only leaves the
first year, flowers and seeds in
the second year; but annual types
which set seed the first year• have
been found as have a few short
lived perennials. In appeprance the
leaves resemble the' garden vari-
ety of carrot both in appearance
and odor: The tap root also has an
odor similar to the garden carrot
but is white in color rather than
orange. The flowers, which arc
borne on stems two to three feet
high, become a tightly folded
"bird's nest' when the fruit is de-
veloping and are quite unsightly at
this stage. The plant is unpalatable
in hay, or pasture and its most ex-
tensive damage usually occurs in
these crops, It is also host plant
to the carrot rust fly and cannot
he tolerated in the vicinity of car•
rots, parsnips, celery or parsley.
Badly infested meadows and pas-
tures should be broken and cropper
before reseeding, if possible. Road
sides and unworkable fields shoal(
be sprayed in June with 2, 4-D a'
the rate of 16 oz. •of acid per acre
to prevent the. setting of seed ii
the second-year plants, and it
September to, elirainate seedlinf
plants which would become see(
producers the nod year, Some
strains of wild carrot are resistant
V!, 2, 4-D but these can be con-
trolled by spraying with a 2, 4-I
2,4,5-T mixture at a, rate which will
give S oz, of 2,4,5-'1' per ,,acre, The
Field Craps Branch warns the
2,443 spray and vapor must be
kept Off fruit, vegetables, tittnipa

,Story,14 the Wheel ' PR
The story of the wheel Is, how-
ever, an unending one,, with pre-
sent day evolution, conctinning in
the research laboratory, Tliere old
products are, 'being .improved and
new man-made materials,\ such as
neoprene and nylon, adapted tp
tire making. The contribibtion of
science .to a better, stron,ger and
safer tire is illustrated by 'the im-
provements which have been made
in, tire cord fabric.-
A tire consists of several layers
of • cord' fabric insepara\bly bonded
together. Over them the\ tread is
applied. The basfe feature's of to-
day's tire, its',strength and 'tats abil-
ity to withstand Imat ge4rated
by high speeds, are largely aue- to
the kind and•iluality of this Ltibrie,
At first the fabric used to
force ;tires. was square-woVeihs
cotton :duck material. This provi ed,
too stiff flex easily. It male
tires heat up quickly, was readily
damaged iMpact, and rotte,'
quickly; when wet, In 1916 it wast.
replaced bY, Cord, faliric-a warp of
heaVy Otton , cords
which flexed more easily and great-
ly reduced heat-producing friction.
Improvements in the fabric con-
tinued 'as new and stronger mater-
ials' became available. The first
rayon cord tire was introduced in
1934. Within nine yearS thanks to
the labbrati,by, deyelopmeni of high
tenacity rayqn Yarn-,; rayon cord
tires 'had been adopted. by most
tire producers. „
But /tire research did not stop
with rayon. Nylon, first developed
in 1938, was tested as 'a tire cord
fabric. During the ,Second World
War it proved to ,be the only mat-
erial able to withstand the tremen-
dous impact and speed-of-landing
of heaVy bonibers .,and fast fighter
planes.: AS 'a result, interest in
nylon cord tires per rapidly.
Laboratory teits',quickly deinon-
strated that nylon tires would
withStand 10 'to ,15 miles per hour
higher:, speeds than. other tires.
They were also -found to have 2',
times as much carcass, . strength
as rayon tires and • better piiise
resistance. An 'equally important
factor • in their favor was the added
number of tire. recaps which 'the
greater strength'• of nylon casings
made possible.
Nylon has 'Already taken over in
aircraft tires and dominates in
off-theIx:lad giuipme'nt and truck
tires. •Today. all:,four automobile
manufactUrers in „Canada are offer-
ing nylon cord tires as optional
equipment on' new passenger cars.
While nylon tire cord is perhaps
the most recent chapter in the life
story of the,,: wheel',' it is 'by no
meanslhe eri'd of the book. It does,
however; indicate 'the progress
which-is talOng, plaee• in the tire
industry-progress which has 'been
greatly- acclerafed since the days
when the Farmers' A,nti"-Automo-
bile,.Society . of Pennsylvania re-
cominended that: "If a horse is
unwilling to. pass an automobile,
the driver of the automobile should
take the machine apart as rapidly
as possible and conceal the parts
'in' the 'btisheS:." •
Mechanized farming may well be
a development of the present een-
tury but its first crude beginnings
can be traced back beyond record-
ed history, It began when man first
discovered that , circular wooden
discs placed under a heavy burden
would permit it to be rolled rather
than carried. From, this humble
beginning—the birth of the wheel—
has gyoWn our great transportation
industry with the multitUde of
trucks,- automobiles and tractors so
essential to mockin farming. • ,
The evolution of wheeled vehicles
was. a slowproCess,. with each age
bringing new requirenients;.. Cir-
cular wooden discs were adequate
for early Egyptian chariots, Grec-
ian .agriculltural carts. and Roman
baggage wagons, but wooden car-
page wheels with iron tires were
,needed by the- time of the -post-
;chaise, the landeau and , the brut:-
gham. They were needed, too, to
roll • the, lumbering stag&coaches
along early Canadian roads.
In 'the latter part of the 19th
:entury; when comfort-loving tra-
vellers demanded smoother
carriage makers began to.qiishion
tires with rubber: Both / solid 'rub-
ber and pneumatic • tires were in
use before the arrival.. of the auto-
mobile. When early automobiles
and .trucks took over, the -evolution
of the wheel, there was little im-
mediate ,change, Wooden .carriage
wheels, or wire bicycle wheels were
sill , needed to hold the car, body
high • off the badly rotted ground.
