- Wool Production.
Total wool production in Canada in
1945 amounted to i9,6a6,000 pounds,
an increase of 347,000 pounds over
the 1944 production.. Although shorn
wool' production declined by over 600,-
000 pounds• from the 1944 yield, • t}}is
was more . than offset by, an increase
of nearly one million pounds in pull-
ed wool production, as a result of
the appreciable increase in sheep and
Iamb marketinga. in 1945. Apparent
consumpt4err of wool in Canada do
1945 was nearly eleven million pounds'
higher than in:1944. -•
The gross value of sharrn wool pro-
duction in 1945 is estimated at $4,020,-
000 which is slightly below .the 1944
value of $4,106,000, :.Cash inconie from'
shorn wool off farms in 1945 amount-
ed to $3,661,000, a decrease of $106,-
000 from. theincome of 1944. -
Poultry -and Water
Character.•istics peculiar to• poultry
are that the birds have a high tom
perature,' 108 to 109 degrees, with ari
'acconapanying high respiration. They
drink a lot of water and exha:e it all
from the lungs. They hate no:sweat
glands• and no liquid discharge,' from
the .kidneys. They are covered with
Nature's best insulation, a thick coat
of fluffy feathers, • They have their
own ceatrai heating plant, a strong'
muscled gizzard, and 'a food reservoir,

Still Much To Know About Use
: DDT As Garden Insecticide
Although' entomologist -s :both' hi
Canada and the United States have
carried out an;intensiy,.e study of the
new insecticide DDT,. there a, a still
many thinis••not known regarding its
rise. It is not a cure-all. , It is very
effective against many insects but of
little value ag'ainst others. A1ao, the
effect of residues, if any, on man and
animals is under investigation, so
that in the meantime DDT should, not
be applied to salad crops or vege-
tables- where _parts Qf the olant.
sprayed or dusted are actually to be
eaten.
However, DDT both .in spray- and
dust form. is.safe to use on almost all
vegetable crops without fear, of
damaging the.foliage, . The exceptions
are plants sirch"as squash, cucumber,
melons, pumpkins and the like, which
are injured following treatment. In''
juries to young tomato plants have
'been .reported but older tomato plants
o 'not seem to have been, adversely
affected.
General recommendations for the
use of DDT on vegetable crops, as
recorded by 'Alan 0, Dustan, Division
of En!dmology, Dominion Department
of •Agi,iculture, are as follows:
DDT `can be recoinmencled ,definite
ly for use • on potatoes, in either spray
or dust form. •,It 'gives excellent Con-
trol orthe . Colora,do beetle, the pota-
to leafhopper, and the potato flea
beetle, It is effective to a degree
against potato aphids, •particularly
spray form, but will'°probable not give
as satisfactory control .as, some other
contact sprays or dusts. It has not
proved effective against •the tuber
flea beetle in British Columbia.
DDT has been usedl wlthagreat
success •against the common cater-
pillars attacking .cruciferous crops,
namely. the imported .cabbage, worm,
the diamondback 'math, the abbage
looper, and the zebra caterpillars—but
it cannot be recommend as yet' for
the complete treatment (all applica-
tions) of cabbages and cauliflower
until more is known regarding the
possible effect af• . residues •on the
consumer. DDT is safe on Cabbages
until 'the heathy° form, after which
derris should be substituted.' Do 'not
use DDT' on cauliflower except in the,
early stages of development. DDT
has proved effective• against most
flea beetles and leafhoppers, and fair-
ly effective against aphids.
DDT is the best remedy in sight
fpr the tarnished plant bug. It is alae
being recommended • as a control for'
the tomato _trait worm and the toma-
to hornworm. In cutworm baits, it is
wiser to usearis green or one of
the other arsen�i6als, , DDT has shown
little promise in the for iulati'ons
tested so, far against root maggots,
and cannot be recommended for the
control of the cabbage maggoty onion
maggot, carrot rust fly or the seed-
corn maggot. For the control o..f the
Ouropean cornborer on sweet corn by
spraging, , derris is .still the standard
reoiku it'efitdatitlit. •

In planning meals for the home
where there are cb,ildren; it is neees-
sary to think • of • them 'first, Milk;
then is a food to be, considered.
The home economists. of the Con-
sumer

of Agriculture, say that it is easy 'to
plan dishes that have the required
amount of milk for the children -and
still appeal to the adult members of
the • fancily. Milk soups, escalloped
dishes • and many delicious de,sserts'
Carry a large proportion of milk, and
yet are not suggestive of baby food..••
The care of milk in the home is
very important. As soon as possible
after delivery, the milk should be
taken ;into the -house and put immedi-
ately into the refrigerator or other
cold place. The bottle and • cap
should' be washed;' before putting
away, in order to remove any dirt or
dust which may have adhered to the
bottle during 'delivery.
Milk should be kept 'in the storage
place, except when 'it' is actually be-
ing used. When cooking with -milk.,
the bottle should 'remain in the warm
kitchen only long :enough to measure
out what. is required. In. serving milk
the amount put on the ,table should
be as nearly as possible what will be
used, and after the meal, Milk, cream
and butter, ehould be, the first foods
put away. -.eft-over milk should not
be, poured back into the.bottle, as the
milk in the bottle will be several de-
grees colder than that- Taken "from
