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., T;R1J RS.

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.

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.
