A. Scott, Division Standards For Wool 'of Botany & Plant Pathology, Do minion Department of Agriculture. Treatment of seed to control seed - borne diseases is an inexpensive means of crop insurance. The cost for seed of cereals is about 3 cents per bushel or 4% cents per acre. Mercurial dusts such as Ceresan and Leytosan when properly ap- plied, effectively control the smuts of oats, covered smut of barley, bunt or stinking smut of wheat and certain blights and root rots 'Com- monly found in cereal crops. Organic mercury dusts are poison- ous to human beings and live stock. In applying them great care should be exercised to follow instructions as outlined on the container. Due to their easy application, effectiveness, and stimulation to germination they are rapidly replacing the use of formalin. They will not control the loose smuts of wheat and barley. These smuts are not effected by the use of the ordinary seed treat- ments but can be controlled by the hot water treatment. Arasan, Semesan and Spergon are dusts recommended for the treat meet of seedof certain vegetables and field roots. All the seed treatment dusts can be bought from any seed dealer. °p There is no doubt that the use of disease-free seed is one of the first - essentials to successful and profita- ble crop production, says Mr. Scott. It is an established fact that proper seed treatment will control certain seed -borne diseases and will protect the seed, for a time at least, from invasion of soil -borne organisms. If a farmer will treat his seed annually with a recommended preparation, it will prove the cheapest and most re- liable investment he can make to protect his crop' against serious loss from diseases. It will soon be shearing time or harvesting the annual growth of wool from sheep. So that the best returns may be obtained, exacting attention should be given to the preparation of the wool clip for market. A premium of 4c per pound on wool suitably prepared for market is again to be paid this year by the province co- operating and the Dominion Depart- ment of Agriculture. Clips arriving at registered wool warehouses from provinces co-operating in the pay- ment of the bonus are reported as being much improved in respect to cleanliness and manner of prepara- tion. Under wartime conditions in. Canada as controlled by Canadian Wool Board Limited, wool prices have been stabilized and all wool collected through registered wool warehouses is disposed of by the Wool Board. With the removal of control and the handling of the annual clip by the Board, warehouse operators will again be confronted with the prob- lem of marketing wool collected by them, and the ease with which such problems will be met will largely de- pend upon the conditions of the wool as received from the grower. The wool bonus is designed to im- prove the preparation of fleeces for market and encourage and assist wool growers of Canada in meeting post-war wool marketing require- ments, Standards which should be fol- lowed by wool growers in the ,prep- aration of their elip for bonus are not difficult to meet. They are as follows: 1. Shear on a clean floor and avoid second cuts in the wool. In the case of sizeable range flocks, the holding pen should have slatted floors; 2. Keep all short, hairy leg and face clippings away from the fleece. If any quantity, include with tags when shipping; 3. Remove all Tags, Dung Locks and very muddy Bellies. Pack separately; 4.

Canadian Pacific smithy for the past 12 years, goes about his work in a white smock and cap in the comparative quiet of his turret quarters in the Royal York Hotel, Toronto. Mr. Rose is a silversmith, and as illustrated here, his work -a -day tasks • consist of reconditioning the thousands of pieces of silverware and flatware used by the ,Canadian Pacific Railway Company in its hotel diming rooms and restaurants Scratched and dented teapots, cream jugs, viande platters and battered spoons are "meat" for Mr. Rose and his staff who take pride in their ability to stack their combined sldlls against the most disreputable looking piece of silver and turn it out looking like new. Under his Aladdin's lamp he has repaired an average o£ 1,800 pieces of silverware anclsome 18,000 pieces of flatware a year.
