Marsh l's office •emphasized the PO sible fire danger ,from: farm tract and trucks. Pointimg out that aut motive engineers have design trucks and tractors so that the leas 'possible fire hazard exists, so long • the equipment is kept in good ru ning order, Mr. Laskey said th most tires originating from gasolin vehicles can be traced to 0 of the following: Poor Maintenance The import items are mufflers gasoline lines carburetors and the ignition system Trouble rarely comes suddenly a there are usually warnings of defect which can .be detected In advance, Improper• refueling and im-perfec fuel storage.—Small quantities of ga oline if required should be carried i safety cans only, and motor shoal be s.topPed, manifold and muffler b reasonably cool .and no smoking while tank is being ,filled• Accumulations of dust, oil and corabustible material.—A load of grain passing the muffler too close may take fire, straw or chaff mnay blow to at,cumulate on the engine, clog the radi- ator, pile up on the muffler, build up around the tractor or truck to pro- vide direct contact with heated parts or get close enough for sparks to ig- nite. Poor judgment in operating the quipment, or unexpected accident.— Tractors and trucks being driven in nd around farm buildings. should' be andied with the same care and good udgment given to driving a car on a rowded highway. The slightest ac- ident—if burning gasoline is involy- d�•-can cause a disastrous fire. Poor judgment in selecting a place o service, adjust or repair automotive quipmenTJnder no circumstances hould such operations take place in ny building where fire could cause xtensive damage. Distance is the reatest protection and the cheapest. minimum distance should be eighty eet from any building or stack. Plani- ng gasoline spreads rapidly. Less Cattle Marketed Inspected slaughterings of cattle uring 1947 amounted to 1.3 million ead, a decline of 22 per. cent from 946. There was a 30 per cent de- ine in Western Canada and a 10 er cent drop in Eastern, Canada. The tal inspected kill of calves was 67,000 head, a decline of 12 per cent om 1946. In Western Canada the *op was 17 per cent, while in East - •u Canada it was nnne'per cent. Good Seed Pays Good Dividends Every bushel of seed that is put in - the .soil may be considered as an vestment. 'The crop returns will etermine the soundness of such an vestment. The use of good seed is. factor entirely in the hands Pf the rmer and' as strong, vigorous plants e naturally better able to withstand e possibility of a poor season, the se of any seed but the best is a mble. With modern seed cleaning equip- ent there is little excuse for using d that is ungraded or contains eed seeds. Seed that does riot germ - ate well may also be considered a zard in crop production and should looked upon with suspicion. The choice of a variety that is well ited to soil, climate and is disease- sistant, is a very important factor obtaining maximum yields. New rieties often make it difficult to de - de which is best for specific condi- ons. Before changing to a• new va- ety it is usually better to try it out small acreage where a direct mparison can be made with the riety being grown. Information re- rding new varieties is available at times at experimental farms a.nd 1pful suggestions may be offered sed on the results of variety tests. When a variety is known to be well apted for a particular area, it is ways an advantage to keep the seed e from contamination with other rieties, which could mean a lack of iformity in ripening and conseryuent- a poorer quality sample. en- ers' an- ent ural l+Yre say ottawa observer sr PTs' As Members of Parliament return- 0- ed from a visit to their constituencies ed this week they face a heavy schedule. t The 'Geneva Trade agrements and the as complementary agreements with Bra- n- tain and the United States are likely! at to be the most controversial.

BEA.FORTH - PHONE COLLECT r The Freight Raters Decision There ,is a great deal of argument about the effect of the decision of the Transport Commission to allow a 21 per cent rise in freight rates (with certain important exceptions). Many who followed the hearing hold that this rise is not required while rail traffic is heavy and should not have been made effective until needed. The obief 'controversy rages around the claim that freight rates have not been equitable in the pant; therefore, in- creases should have been allowed 'on- ly where the lower rates were in force. This claim is based on the con- tention that freight rates should he based on cost of hauling rather than on the existence (or lack of it) of water rate competition. Few responsible public men have yet made any lengthy or detailed statement. There is some movement to have the whole freight rate struc- ture examined by parliament or the government to assist in arriving at a rate level that will bind Canada more Seed treatment against disease should not be neglected, and direc- tions can be obtained from any exper- imental xpelimental farm or -agricultural college.
