Square Tree Belts to
Protect Crops
For the past 50"years, experiments
in Russia have been carried on with'
tree shelter belts to improve crop
production and reduce the hazards
of,a rigorous arid climate. Minch
of this work has been clone at the
Kamenno-Stepnoe Station in south-
eastern European Russia where hot
summer and bitter winter winds
sweep down from the deserts of cen-
tral Asia. The Station is well ac-
quainted with the work done in Can-
ada, but it was found that under
certain Russian conditions tree pelts
alone did not suffice. They had to
be wide and entirely enclose ,separate
fields to be beneficial. Even with,
those four-sided belts, occupying 10
per sent of the area to be protected.
results were not greatly improvad
until the crop rotation included two
successive crope of perennial', grasses,
Slight*y 'different problems were
presented in the prevention of soil
erosion on steep slopes. Experiments
showed,' states Foreign Agriculture,
that the outersix to ten: crows et
trees constituting the protective 'bet
could be composed of the trees used
in other shelter belts, such as, per-
manent trees (50 to 60 pes cent) like
oak, ash, sharp leaved maple, linden,
and elm, together with temporary
trees (20 to 30' per cent) like ,wart;.,'
birch, poplar, and Canadian naple;
and shrubs '(10 to 80 per cent) like
boxthorn, hazel bush,' Russian Melee'
redand black aider, and acacia. How-
ever, it was found in these steep
slope plantations that the inner roses
held the soil better if they were made
up of cultivated and wild fruits, such
as, cherry, rasipberry and blackthorn
In this way, inose wood was obtained
for fuel and for local building and
selling, and at the ,same time, the
food supply was increased by forest
fruits, berries, and nuts.,

AGAINST YOU
Canadians are lucky. So far we've prevented inflation and
avoided deflation.
It's not been just good luck.
Your support—..everybody's support -of price ceilings, rationing
and other controls alone has made it possible.
BUT NOW COMES THE REAL TESTING TIME.
The ,danger of inflation and its black shadow, deflation, will
last as long as goods are scarce and insufficient to meet demands.
With the war over and plenty of money in our pockets it's easy
to overlook the danger.
It's easy to think that paying just a little more to get something
we want is unimportant now.
it's easy to Think that what you do can't hurt—and to forget
that careless, extravagant buying is a sure way to help a general
rise in prices.
That's how inflation gets going.
BUT INFLATION IS ALWAYS FOLLOWED BY DEFLATION.
And deflation brings cancelled orders, bankrupt businesses,
mortgage foreclosures, unemployment and distress -distress
you
can't avoid.
Until industry gets back to normal, price ceilings, rationing and
other controls are our safeguard.
Sas Keep on Watching your buying. Don't rush to buy scarce goods.
Keep on saving your money. Put it into Victory bonds and
War Savings certificates.
Keep on supporting wage and price controls, andrationing,
Keep on fighting inflation and its black shadow... deflation.
This advertisement Is one of a series being Issued by the Government of
Canada to emphasize the importance of preventing a further Increase In thr
cost of living now and deflation and unemployment latera

RED - CROSS NUTRITION NEWS
More Vegetables on the Meru
Those colorful garden danties, the
green and yellow vegetables, are
usually partnered together because
of close nutritional kinship. Both
vegetable groups contain bright
yellow substances calved carotenes
which the human body can convert
into vitamin A, that vitamin so
needed by the body to build up
resistance to infections and help
growth processes. Squash, carrots,
sweet potatoes and eggs and other
orange -hued foods are most often
associated with vitamin A, but the
yellow color in Clark green vegetables
is hidden under the green pigment
and is present just the same,
Vitamins vanish when vegetables
wait and wilt. Green vegeta'.les es-
pecially leafy, should be used as soon
after gathering or marketing as
possible. If storage is necesser'y,
tuck thein in your vegetable crisper
or some other cool 'spot to keep
vitamin waste at a minimum. Air
and water are other enemy agents of
the vitamin fancily so prepare veg-
etables close to meal time and cook
them 'quickly without extra stirring
and -serve immediately.
But that's not the end of the story.
These vegetable cousins are versa-
tile. fellows. They're tasty either
cooked or raw, Since a well-svaslied
