Canada's Progress With Frozen Food

the Frozen Fgod Institute at their re-
▪ cent meeting„ in -New York City, • F.
J: Perry, Assistant Chief,.-.r11'ruit and
Vegetable Inspection '(Canning), Do-
minion Depai;tinent of .Agriculture,
dealt. with Canadian relationship 'to
the frozen food industry.The first at-
' tempt made in Canada • with frozen:
food •prodacts, he said, was in 1925,
when -fruits for ie -manufacturing.
were ,frozen blit it was not. until sev-
en years later that the first' recom-
• mended pack was•, introduced for con-
sumer 'use. '
•• ,In that year, 1932, six thousand
•• pounds of frozeh strawberries were
packed: .In 1945, the. pack was 1,638,-

Planning to Breed Disease. Free Beans
Field beans are used almost entire-
ly for human consumption either as
shelled beans or as commercially pro -
teased in .pork and beans or soups;
and are in steady demand; which, av-
erages about one and one-half filiion
bushels annually. All are produced in
Canada except certain types such as'
Lima beans which are not grows suc-
dessfully in the Dominion, says Dr.
W. G. McGregor; Cereal Division,
Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa.
The small white pea bean, is in
greatest demand both for home -con-
sumption and commercial processing.
The principal acreage is found in
South Western, .,Ontario 'particularly
the Counties of Huron, Middlesex,
Kent and 'Essex. In this area the var-
ieties Michelite and Robust, and the
Corvette varietymore receiatly dis-
tributed from the ' Central Experi-
mental' Farm, are grown extensively.
The latter'variety'ap.pears to be find-
ing a place in Huron and Middlesex
counties. In• the irrigation district of
Alberta, field beans : are also a cash
crop.• •the earlier maturing variety
Burbank'. being favoured.
Other types -of beans are also
grown cbmetjeaciaily, particularly the
Marrowfat• type. The most popular
variety 'in",this grou'ii is the Yellow
Eye.. This variety is characterized•by
an irregular yellow blotch around the
hilum of the seed and is ,particulalriy
Prized for its baking quality. Marrow-
fat ;types: do not hold their .. shape
when baked to the :same extent as
the smaller pea. bean • type. Some
Red Kidney beans are also grown an.d
processed commercially:
Almost every garden' ,growing pro;.
duce for the table will include 'a plot•
of beans for 'home use and many.
varieties' become favoured ' in certain
districts. In northern areas, early'ma-
turity, be com.es of first importance and
in this instance the' variety Nrwe-
gian is recommended.: This . pis a
brown- seeded kidney shaped bean
which , matures early and has good
baking quality.
The objective in the breeding pro-
gram of the Central Experimental
Farm aims to produce better -yield-
ing, more disease -resistant varieties.
These in use at present have- consid-,

should be considered when deciding
upon the -most economical" rate at
which to" apply barnyard -manure. 1.
The quantity ;of manure available;
2. The duration of the rotation; ,3..Tiie
kind or variety of crop to be produc-
ed; 4. The physical condition of,` the
soil.
Experiments at the Dominion Ex-
perimental Farm, Nappan, N.S., over
.period of years indicate that light
but frequent applications of manure
will return a. higher value per ton
than:,.heavy rates. 'with longer inter-
vals• between applications and have
also show•n•.th'at increased rates have
requited in increased yields and low-
er net retprns per ton. . -
In a four-year rotation of Swedes,
oats, clover hay, timothy, 12 tons of
manure per acre , applied before the
Swede crop gave °a 22 -year" average
increase in dry matter production in
the four crops of 84 per cent'over un-
manured plots, aid a return of $3:32
per ton of manure •applied•. Sixteen
tone .increased the yield by 106 per
cent and the return value of the man-
ure *as• $3.09, while 20 tons gave an
increase of 130. per cent in •yield and
a return o•f $2,84' per, ton of manure
a,pplieii: When • eight tons per acre
were applied' twice in' • the rotation;
before swedes and again ' before the
clover crop, the. increase'fit dry -Mat-
ter was 128 per cent and the return
value per. tom of manure was $3.35.' .
• With •a limited •supply of manure
in relation to the 'area under cultiva-
tion, a•condition found on most farms,
light but frequent applications, sup-
plemented with commercial fertilizer„

Cash crops will. generally :return a
higher value per tori' of manure than
erops,rfor.live__atock, feed -abut the- ef-
fect .of heavy rates on the quality of
the crop and the incidence of .disease
must.. be taken into consideration.
Land low in organic matter will usu-
ally benefit from heavy rates to a
greater degree than soil :that is high
in this max,erial,
Supply. bf Turkeys Well Below
Demand
Demand for turkey meat_in-..Caneda
diiring recent years has far exceeded
the available supply. Probably , the
outstanding reason for this poliular-
ity was the rationing of meat. Poul-
try meat was .not rationed. Turkey'
meat is highly nutritious 'ands its pal-
atability can be increased by placing'
the birds, whether alive or dressed,
on the' market in a, well finished con.
dition, says - A: G..Tayloi•, Poultry Di-
vision, Central Experimental Farni,
Ottawa. "
So that as mans turkeys• be raised
as possible this year, several import-
ant factors 'should be observed. .Of
first importance are such considera-
tions as.. getting the females to lay.
early , and taking reasohably good
care of the eggs, keeping the breed-
ing .females laying for a, reasonable
time, setting the eggs in incubators
that are known to be good, hatchers,
Making •p{eparations for ;the poults
when hatched and giving them good
care;' -especially :during the brooding
,season, protecting the growing poults
'on range by fencing them in a pre-
scribed area,' and by the feeding of
suitable' and highly nutritious feeds
throughout the growing season.
'The proper time, for the turkey
farmer ,to have his turkeys start to
lay is when the spring season opens.
When the weather is cold, fe,rtilfty
may be poor and many eggs may be
frozen or chilled. Eggs should be
gathered' often when the weather is
chilly.' Breeding females should be
given . regular care and any .birds—
given regular care and any birds
which shows signs• of broodifiess
should be broken up, at once and 'got
back to laying without delay. Ine'u-
bating eggs should .not be entrusted
to,,,incubators of questionable value.
Turkeys eggs are 'costly and should
be hatched in tried and proved incu-
bators.
Be sure the 'brooder house and
equipment are ready to' receive the
turkey Iioulta. , Operate the' brooder
stove' for a fear/ days before putting
the poults in- the- brooderso that a

Plans For New ,Hospital Wing •a
Lionel Bridgman, London architect,
-was this week in Goderieh looking
over the -grounds at Alexandra Mar-
ine and General Hospital, with a view
to drawing up plans for a new wing.
Extra accommodation at the hospital
has been seen to be urgent for the
past several months, with present ac-
conimodation well, . oveMal lid. Mr.
Bridgman's plans will be submitted to
the government, and if approved, the
Board of Governors will consider
what ,steps should be taken to finance
construction. , It :is estimated that an'
should, be taught" to• drink by• dipping
its bill in the drinking water. To as-
sist in feeding,- a, number of poults.
should be treated in a 'similar man-
ner by having the bill of, :the poult
dipped in the m•asIl. Once they get a
taste of mash and a drink of 'water
they will soon learn to feed and teach
the others, to do likewise. ,
To keep the poults' from crowding
in the,corners of the house• away from
the heat use a guard of some kind
-placed outrfrom the hover about two
feet. They-' soon learn to,'return to
the heat' of the brooder .when rest,
ing, at .which. time the guard can be
moved farther back or removed.
Start the poults to feed by using a
good turkey starter mash. These can
be purchased ready. ,mired., ,Feed
starter mash for at least six weeks.
Turkey gruwiug• dsh and. telae -d -
grains can then be fed.
' When ,the" poults are placed on
rapge they should be fenced in a`.
prescribed area for .protection • from
predatory animals. It will also enable
them to •be"' put under cover' when
heavy rains come. This_ is important
until the growing poult has taken on
its "red head." The range •recommend-
ed is first year meadow. It should
haveasclovera-alfatfaa and one of t -h
pasture' grasses in abundant supply.
If an early crop of hay is removed,
the second growth -will be ready when
the poults are old enough to be giyen

• Cancer is eicceeded only by heart disease as a
cause of death. Because it frequently means
long and cruel suffering, and is the disease we
dread most, is most decidedly ranks as Public

Yet cancer.in its early stages usually causes no
pain, That is why relatively few cancers get
