G. Davidson, Feeds Ad- ministrator. While it is too early in the •Seasiin, to make any definite esti-, mates on quantities of oats, barley and feed to be produced this year, it would appear almost certain tliat the Eastern Canadian crop of coarse grains will be considerably less than last year. And while good .rains all' over Western Canada have improved crop prospects there, it will not be until near harvest time that any definite figures are obtainable on the western crop. With this situation facing the Can- adian agricultural program, the Feeds Administration has alreadytaken steps to secure and move reserve stocks of feeding grains into Eastern positions. Already stocks, of oats and feeding wheat have been moved- to Collingwood, Midland, Port McNicoll, FARM IMPROVEMENT LOANS 111) Under the Farm Improvement Loans Act a farmer may now borrow on special. terms -to buy agricultural implements, livestock or a farm electric system, and for fencing, drainage, repairs to buildings or other :farm improvements. r ”' 'This Bank is fully equipped to make loans "-to farmers under the provisions of this Act.

Shortages of workers for building homes and for producing the building rlaaterials are 'threatening to impede Canada's program for the construction of 50,000 homes as soon as possible. All men experienced in home building or in producing building lnateri ls, who are not now working in either of the industries, are urged to apply to the nearest office of the National Employ- ment Service immediately. Men experienced at home building or producing supplies, if now in other essential work, will be given permits to work at jobs which will assist the house building program. All men, not now at house building nor pro- .ducing supplies, who can fill a job in this program, are urged to answer this call. Apply at once at the nearest office of the National Employment Service.

To . , augiaent further these supplies, all exports of pate, feed barley and feeding grades of wheat have been stopped until suf- ficient quantities are in hand to meet all feeding demands. Canada Watches Egg Shipments Although the British consider Can- adian dried egg powder the • best made, they are delighted to be, able again to serve eggs in the shell. Now that the U-boat menace is over and shipping space is less restricted, Can- ada has resumed export of shell eggs to Britain. To examine the condition of these eggs on arrival, the Dominion Depart- ment of Agriculture assigned one of its.,.pfficials, Hugh Cochrane, of Win- nipeg, to London. There he examin- ed incomiing egg shipments, report- ing to the Special Products Board his suggestions for improvin packing and stowage. Mr. Cochrane says that the quality of Canadian eggs on arrival in Bri- tain is remarkably good and that Bri- tish consumers are finding them as tasty as eggs laid in Britain. He adds, however, that there are still im- provements to be made in stamping, packing and stowing eggs. He has now -returned to Canada and his `ex- perience and findings are being made available to Canadian egg stations and operators. on 3 3 Mixed Fertilizers Canada imports about 60,000 tons of superphosphates annually from the Eastern United States, but returns about one-half this quality in the form of mixed fertilizers. Vermont, upper New York, and the State of Maine import a total of 65,000 to 75,000 tons of mixed fertilizers from Canada—one-half of this mixture is superphosphate. • 3 3 Canadian Chickls Fly To Mexico One hundred baby chicks are to be flown to Mexico. These chicks, select- ed from -approved flocks, have been ordered from an Ontario -hatchery for delivery to Mexico for breeding pur- poses- Their buyer has also ordered 30 R.O.P. pullets and six R.O.P. cock- erels each of Barred Rocks, White Leghorns and New Hatnpshires. This breeding stock, aged from 12 to. 14 weeks, will be shipped by express. The Director of Agriculture, St. John's, Newfoundland, has recent- ly ordered 100 R.O.P. White Leghorn pullets and 12 R.O.P. cockerels from Canada. The birds were selected from the flock of a breeder in the Province of Quebec. ' The Dominion Department of Agri- culture which arranged for the pur- chase and shipment of these chicks is also making arrange`khents to ob- tain for Newfoundland an additional consignment of 80 New Hampshire pullets and 12 cockerels and an equal number of Barred Rocks. This breed- ing stock, all R.O.P. and aged 12 to 14 weeks, is being ordered from breeders in New Brunswick,` • 3 3 Canadian Flour The average monthly output- of flour in Canada for the first ten months of the crop year (August, 1944, to July, 1945) has been slightly more tban 2,000,000 barrels, bringing the total for the ten months to 20,- 728,684 barrels. The ' amount of wheat flour exported in that period was 11,162,769 barrels, an increase of 29,222 barrels on the corresponding period of the preceding crop year. Eudworm Control Spray Experiments In the .control of the spruce bud - worm, numerous areas in Eastern Canada already have been experi- mentally sprayed with DDT this sea- son. The sprays have been distrib- uted by aeroplane. According to the Forest Insect: Investigations Bi -month- ly Progress Report, issued by the Di- vision of Entomology, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, the follow- ing schedule has been carried out, with further experiments still in progress: Algonquin Park -Ten ex- perimental plots of 1-0 acres each sprayed between May 2nd and May llth. The object of the experiment was the determination of the rela- tive effectiveness Of various dosages. The U.S. Bureau of Entomology furn- ished the plane and pilot. The DO - minion Department of Agriculture provided- the. insecticides. Nine hundred -and forty acres around Cache Lake, Canoe Lake, and Snake Lake, Ont., were sprayed between May 16th and 25th. Object: experiment in control. Dosage 1 lb. DDT per acre.

It .breeds in filth, and ;passes directly from this filth to human food, carry- ing bacteria and, particles of decom- posing ecorposing organic matter, on its hairy body and legs .and- on its sticky feet and mouth. It may light on the face of a sleeping child, and this common fly is notorious for the part it plays in spreading infantile diarrhoe, 'ty- phoid, tuberculosis, cholera, dysentery and other diseases. It is strongly suspected of being a carrier of the virus causing infantile paralysis, and already the case has been almost proved by the finding of the virus in a mixed collection of flies taken in districts where infantile paralysis had occurred. The common house fly is one of the most serious corrupters' of food. In the home, control of flies is compara- tively easy. They can be destroyed, and effective covering of the tempor- ary -garbage will prevent the flies from finding a breeding place. The 'most effective method of con- trol consists in eliminating or reduc- ing their breeding places outside by the proper treatment and disposal of such materials as manure and garb- age. One neglected manure heap or garbage dump is often• sufficient to infect the whole neighborhood, and therefore in the control of flies it is necessary to enlist the active co-op- eration of the whole community. Carrier Tire Problem The Army came to the rescue. This time it was no `beachhead won but a problem of every car -owner solved— how to make tires last longer. In co-operation with the rubber in- dustry, the Department of Munitions and Supply .and the National Re- search Council, the army brought to a high degree of perfection the sys- tem of retreading tires. The worn tire is cut off evenly all arounddown to the fabric of the tire. Then the earca'ss, as the tire is called„ is plac- ed in a moulding machine similar to a tire -making machine. In it a new tread is "welded" on to the tire so that the two fuse together. Amaz- ing results are now obtained even with' tires that4 have been retreaded three times. 'Nis procedure is now available to motorists in the major- ity of the larger centres. cufrRnt' lx4oRed #1�$ '► pet s► :or ftl4^ & "ill 9 lg P# fey' Cera a beet- el fent ;.14S.'feet, and 'I uruud hf. ha>)da..,acycxeay_ Cheater' wan a vex.uzaP/Pr 4144,, Ipiey ,ter arse tlaYs uattiMe'fkr4oboot OtiftiP acoident pasaed Alf.' ^- oderich Signal, Star. trhuirch Reopens After "Decoratiosn ,.
