CBC's Agricultural Division has planned its Ontario Farm broadcasts (Monday to Friday incluaive at 12.50 to 1 p.m.) so that specific subjects may be dealt with at the same time each week. In addition to the regular market advice and the daily episode of "The Craigs," Don Fairbairn discusses farm problems and object- ives under the .headings of Live Stock, Mondays; Poultry, Tuesdays; Dairying, Wednesdays; Crops (field) Thursdays, and Fruits, Fridays, A series of special interviews will be announced early in 'November, with specialists in the foregoing depart- ments participating in the discus- sions. Percy Faith says that there is real inspiration for his musical comedy in the spacious Great Hall of the Arts and Letters Club, where nearly 60 musicians, singers and technicians foregather each Wednesday night to present CBC's midweek presentation, "The Cosmopolitans" to national net- work listeners tWednesdays, 9.30 to 10.00 p.m.). Striking decorations, sketches of well-known writers, paint- ers. and actors who comprise the Club's active and past membership, a magnificent fireplace, reminiscent of mediaeval England, and massive oak furnishings are features of the his- toric meeting place of Toronto's bet- ter known artists and authors. "Women In The World,- a series of talks by Esther .Thompson, heard on Mondays at. 4.16 p.nl., is of parti- cular interest to farts women. Miss Thompson, who speaks from Winni- peg, is director of womeu's work un- der the Manitoba Department of Ag- riculture, and in this capacity she is iu close contact with every phase or women's activity in that province. Two programmes currently present- ed by the CDC keep Canadians in touch,. with the point of view in the British Isles, There is the "010 Coun- try MaiI," Sundays at 1 p.nt. and an Wechlesclays at Mae p.nn„ its which R. S. Lambert gives excerpts from the overseas post. These letters, from friends and relatives in the British Isles, give graphic pictures of the manner in which the civilian popula- tion is "carrying on." Then, there is the BBC News, which comes via short wave each week -day afternoon at 4.45 p.m., in which the important news of the day is dealt with author- itativ ely. Wilfred Knapp, for several seasons a member of the John Holden Players at Winnipeg and Bala, has gone to New York. The young actor, who has THE SEAFORTH NEWS been beard ever CBC networks dur- ing the past two years, has the gond wishes of many friends on both sides of the microphone. No Barriers for Women In Canadian Radio (By Cynthia B. Rowe) Women are taking an increasingly important place in the world of broad- casting --and radio is welcoming them. That was the opinion I received when I interviewed Ada McGeer, dlr• eater of auditions for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in British Columbia, in CBC's. Vancouver studios. "Radio is young and it is modern," this former president of the Vancouver Women's Musical club told me. "There are no barriers for wom- en in its make-up. Its sole require- ments are talent, ability and, moat important of all, adaptability." It is that latter requirement that has been a stumbling block n the past, but which women who seek a radio career are now learning to overcome. 'Tit has been the inability to learn the technique of radio which has, until recently, kept many talent- ed feminine personalities from mak- ing good in radio," Mrs. M¢Geer told me. She went on to explain that men have Iess trouble in perfecting a microphone manner. "One merely has to look at those woven who have been successful as commentators on the Canadian network to realize that 'naturalness' is one of the chief rea- sons for their success," said the audi- tions director. In the field of music, the importance of radio technique again playa a part. but :Airs. McGeer told me that woolen instrumentalists and singers form a large percentage of the musicians heard on the CBC. Later, in watching several Vancouver programmes as a guest in the studios, 1 was surprised to note that malty of the key positions in the orchestra and choral groups were occupied by Young women. I asked Percy Harvey, the well-known ('BC conductor. about this, He assured. Inc that the 0011181e temperament is as adaptable to the split-second tension of radio as the male. What is the reason for the in- creasing number of woolen in all lines of broadcasting? Mrs. McGeer had the answer at her finger-tips. "Radio is relying more and more upon surveys as a guide to what the listening public wants," Mrs. McGeer told me. "Therm sun, eys show that during many haul'e p1' the day the housewife snakes up the bulk of the listening audienve. Thus. the increase in programmes designed specifically for women. "The resole is that the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has 'gone to the ladies in many of its departments where the feminine touch is needed." I was told of many interesting wo- men who are doing big jobs in the CBC. There is. for instance, Aileen Beaufort, a young woman whose earl- ier career included appearances with a repertory company in Vancouver. Daughter of a famous newspaperman, Aileen is a member of the CBC's script department. Hers is the im- portant work of writing programme continuities. One of her most inter- esting assignments was the prepare - bon of the elaborate dramatic narra- tions used for the CBC's Coronation L WEAK FIOiJSANDS of tired, weak, rr-:v. ons women have helped themselves gain strength and energy by taking llr.

Another young lady whom I would have enjoyed nieeting is Monica ' Mugaal, whose natural, friendly voice has made her Can- ada's leading woman eonfnentater. Miss Mogan began her radio career nine years ago in Western Canada. Her success as a commentator Dame only after experience in many fields of radio. Monica has written continu- ity and scripts, acted In plays, broad- cast news, sung, played the piano and even has done some producing. I found that a background of varied training is possessed by ahnost evO) y successful woman in radio.

September or October. In recent years there has been a stead- ily improving market outlet for early lambs during June July and August. Consequently, these are the months when breeders who have cull pure- bred lambs should take advantage of a good market to sell their undesir- able breeding stock. Wild Carrot Wile) Carrot is spreading ut an alarming rate in Ontario and is now considered one of the worst weeds in the province, states John D. Mac- Leod, weed expert of the Ont.

Being a biennial, ,Huy plan for eradication should cover a 1w0 year period. Wild carrot does net give any difficulty where thor- ough cultivation and a short rotation of crops is practised, but in the nlea- lx'ws. which have been down two years or more, in pasture fields. fence lines, waste places and roadsides, it Is rapidly becoming one of Ontario's worst weeds, declares Mr. MacLeod. Pulling, spudding or cutting for two Years in succession will not give plants an opportunity to mature seeds and will lessen the infestation con- siderably. Sheep will eat wild carrot if they are permitted to pasture the infested area before plants become too far advanced, Pasture fields or bay fields where a single cut of hay has been taken off early should be trimmed again the latter part of Aug- ust. It should be kept in mind that all plants in flower are two year plants which will due that fall, it is of vital Importance that such. plants be kept from maturing seeds.
