THE DAiRY FARMER RANKS HIGH IN MILITARY PLANS Hello 11onlemakers1 As the grass blankets the bare fields, the catle go forth to graze, Mother Nature pro- vides the nutrients and the herds of cows silently and steadily crop the tender shoots of grass to give us that most important food, milk. Each evening, the veteran dairy farmer opens the ate and his army g returns to the barracks without bands or bunting. Although his field uniform is faded from work and wea- ther, in. Canada's military strategy the farmer ranks high. For men must eat before they can fight. Na tions must have food with their free'- dom - and nature's best -balanced'. food is milk. In spite of labor and machinery shortages, last year Ontario made 200 million pounds of cheese, export- ing 125 millions; made 281 million pounds of butter, and used four and a half million pounds of milk in other ways. The average consump- tion of butter in Canada is 7.2 oz, per person per week. In 1942 butter production was lower than the previ- ous year, while cheese production was up 34%. Estimated neds require. an increase of 6% in milk production in Ontario. This province can be proud of its farmers for pitching in and produc- ing bumper crops of corn,. wheat, meat and other foods, as well as milk — for working longer and hard- er. Farmers' wives, too, have been doing their share.

Facts About Weeds Control and, if possible, complete eradication is the farmer's chief int- erest in weeds, but some knowledge of the mis essential to attain these ends. It should be known, not merely that weeds are present, but what they are; what harm they do, and how; how each is vulnerable to at- tack; and what adaptations of agri- cultural or other practice will best meet the situation. Agriculture has been defined as "a controversy with weeds," This is more than metaphorical language. As restricted to the meaning of field cultivation, agriculture is recognized increasingly as largely the provision for crops of a weed -free environment. It has been demonstrated by experi- ment in the American corn belt that, apart from the object of weed . con- trol, cultivation of a crop of corn be- yond the preparation of a seed -bed could be often almost dispensed with. The man, horse -labor, and equipment costs incurred in the "controversy" are au amazingly large proportion of the total cost . 02 crop production. In fighting weeds, it is as true as anywhere, that prevention is better than cure. Prevention attends close- ly upon otherwise successful farm- ing practice. 'When a farmer starts 20 work on 'v,'ell drained fields, as • early as they are fit for cultivation, and sows plump seed of adapted varieties while the needed moisture is still in this well prepared seed -bed, the con- ditions will have been provided for a vigorous growth of the crop ahead of any competitors. Again, whenever a grain farmer becomes, to any extent, a breeder of live stock he does him- self another immense service. By in- troducing a variety of crops, differing in nature and culture, permitting early cutting in the case of hay, or cultivation in the case of corn or roots, weeds are prevented from mat- uring seeds. Systematic rotation, giv- ing all fields regularly the advantage of cleaning, follows logically. After harvest tillage and spring prepara- tion for late sown crops dispense mostly with any necessity for un- economic summer fallow% and re- duce hoeing to a minimum. When every advantage has been taken of agricultural "sanitary" measures, enough problems still re- main. Why resort to bare fellows (unless in dry land grain farming), chemicals, mulches, and similar re- sources for special occasions, while room remains to improve agricultural practice? For practical advice re- garding these elementary principles of weed control the Field Husbaruhy- Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, may be consulted, The Divi- sion of Botany, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, can also fre- quently through its "case" work with individual species show 'how to suit the action to the weed. (This is the first of a series of weekly short articles on weeds,) Liquid Air Scientists and army and navy ex- perts the world over are now center- ing their attention on two things of absorbing' interest. One is oil, and the other is liquid air. Hot, fragrant, crusty "MAGIC" CHEESE BISCUITS 2 cups four: 4 tsp. Magic Baking Powder; 34 is . salt; 1 otsp. butter; 1 tbsp. lard. t�4 cup cold milk, or half milk acid half water Sift flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in the chilled short- ening. Now add the chilled liquid to make soft dough. Toss doughon to a floured board and do not handle more than is necessary. Roll out biscuit dough and sprinkle generously with grated cheese. Roll up like a jelly roll and cut into one -inch slices. Brush over with milk. Oven 400°F.—Time 12.15 minutes MADE IN CANADA ENSURES BAKING SUCCESS The adoption of liquid air to work machinery means that every country is on an equal footing so far as sup- plies- are concerned. Hence it is not surprising to learn that the best brains in the world are now engaged on discovering how this almost un- tapped source of power could be ut- ilized to the best advantage. Countries badly off as regards ei- ther oil or coal realize, that in a lim- pid liquid such as air they have an almost inexhaustible source of power for useeither in peace or wartime, and which no other country can possibly blockade by either land, sea or air forces. Liquid air is a marvel of science. In itself it is not very different from other liquids, except that it boils at extremely low temperature. For some time now the Germans ' have used carbon and liquid oxygen for quarrying, to save their explosives. Liquid air was not used in the last war• because of the rate at which it evaporated, but there is a possibility that this will be overcome. Even in warfare the "bugbear" of munition making can be greatly ov- ercome, at least the German experts seem to believe. Instead of ships weighing themselves down with frightfully dangerous explosives, the introduction of a liquid air plant aboard each vessel will, it is calculat- ed, enable explosives to be made as required, just as a liner takes in her store of ice and water and other ma- terials as needed. Speaking generally, it requires about as Much air as would fill a small bedroom to make a pail of I liquidair, a feat occupying some (fifteen minutes or less. i Air turned to a liquid has many curious properties. It is a clear, , sparkling fluid, closely resembling water. but so cold that it boils on ice and freezes alcohol and mercury. Although not wet to the touch, a drop of liquid air on the hand pro- duces all the sensations of burning with molten metal. It does not really burn, but the process of cold which corresponds to the burning of heat, leaves a little red scar on the flesh. The uses to which liquid air may be applied are numerous, of course. It proves a very potent germ ex- terminator. It has been employed in 'surgery, and also in the treatment of such scourges as cancer and the like, especially where a cauterizing agent is --required. In the home it likewise possesses 'value. 'A teapot full of liquid air boils vigorously on a block of ice. Food may be kept fresh by the use of liquid air, and all degrees of tem- perature may be produced in any room—from intense heat to inter- - stellar cold. Even the too busy man who finds it difficult to leave town in the sum- mer for a holiday, may benefit, All . the ozone of a particular seaside re- sort can be gathered and let loose in one's own apartment at home—with- out cost of travel or loss of time.
