Plant Ready In June —
Progress is being made on the new
factory building being erected by
Canadian Canners Ltd., at Exeter, to
replace the old building which was
found to be inadequate, The first
story is complete except for the
floor and the fails of the second are
partly completed. Abnormal rainfall
this spring has caused some delay,
two and a half welts having been lost
in the past six weeks from that
cause. The expectation is that every-
thing will be ready for the pea pack
early in June. About 50 per cent of
the peas are already planted, practi-
cally all of the contract crops to the
north and west, but the land to the
south and east Is still waiting for a
change of weather.

References to Death

The following references to the
death of Premier Aberhart of Alberta
were made in the house of commons
on May 24th,

so public spirited, so courageous and
energetic as was the dynamic Al-
berta Premier. Upon the request of
the press yesterday I ieaued the fol-
_,__ - _ lowing statement, which I ask the
indulgence of the house to read into
the record:
In the passing of William Aber -
hart a great man has gone, a great
man with a gerat message. He was
an ardent Britisher, a tireless advoc-
ate of the principles of true British
democracy. Of the leading states-
men of his time, some spoke of free-
dom from want and fear; some pro-
mised it; he alone pointed the way
by which, without loss of individual
liberty, such freedom from want and
fear can be attained. He lighted a
light that men must not allow to be
put out.
Right Hon, W. L. Mackenzie King
(Prime Minister) : May I say to my
hon, friend who has just spoken that
before he rose I received a note from
my hon. friend the leader of the op-
position (Mr. Graydon) asking me .if
I thought I should make a reference
to the passing of the late Mr, Aber -
hart, The thought had °coursed to me
before I came into the house, but in
seeking for precedents as to refer-
ences to the passing of provincial
premiers, I have been unable to dis-
cover any, and it seemed to me that
that general tradition of confining re-
�8� ferences of the kind to members or
ex -members of the Federal parliament
or to personages who have held very
rm z high position was perhaps the one to
which I should adhere. For that rea-
son alone I made no reference to the
q, Y passing of Mr, Aberhart, the late
y5 Premier of Alberta, in whom we all
recognized one who played a great
part in the affairs of his own prov-
ince; one who, from the point of
h ? view of my hon, friend and his foll-
owers, deserved, I am sure, the en-
f,;a yr at comiums which have been expressed
by the leader of the Social Credit
group, My hon, friend will realize
that while we all, I think, respected
Mr. Aberhart and had a high opinion
of not a few of his qualities, there
ther many of us who did not agree
s ,fy yy,,l t with some of the measures and doct-
rines he advocated, and for that rea-
son might not be expected to ex re s
ourselves in reference to his public
servioes in quite the same terms as
have been used by one who was a
devoted disciple and follower,

Soybeans With Corn
Silage For Protein
In areas where corn is grown for
silage and fodder it js the highest
yielding livestock feed crop which
can be grown. As a succulent feed it
is fairly nutritive, but is low in pro-
tein. In view of the difficulty of buy-
ing protein concentrates, it is desir-
able to grow a high protein crop to
supplement the protein in the high
yielding earn crop. Fortunately, soy-
beans are admirably suited for this
purpose, says P. 0. Ripley, Field
Husbandry Division, Central Experi-
mental Farm, Ottawa.
Corn and soybeans have been
grown singly and in mixtures at the
Central Farm, Ottawa, for the past'
five years. The average yield of corn
has been nearly 17 tons per acre, of
soybeans about 7 3-4 tons, and a
mixture of corn and soybeans about
16 2-3 tons. The crudeprotein con-
tent of the corn averaged more than
1 3-4 per cent. of the soybeans 3 3-4
per cent, and of the mixture about
2 1-4 per cent. The mixture was 75
per cent. corn and 25 per cent soy-
beans by weight.
The most suitable mixture is one
which gives approximately 3 parts of
corn to one part of soybean. Seeding
in a mixture to provide one corn
plant to every 4 or 5 soybean plants
in the two will give approximately
this proportion. A mixture of 20 lbs,
of corn and 16 pounds of soybeans
in rows 35 inches apart has been
found satisfactory. There are some
disadvantages in growing the mix-
ture. It is difficult to grow exactly
the right proportion; and harvesting
the mixed crop is very difficult, as
the band on the sheaf at the proper
height for corn is too high for the
soybeans and the sheaf tends to be
ragged and the soybeans fall out,
