Use Good Seed • In view of the relatively high. price of good quality seed oats and barley of commercial grades, some farmers may by terap1ed to. sow grain of re- cleaned C.W. grades. This is an un- wise .practice at -any time, as the pur- chaser has no knowledge of the germ- ination, purity or variety of the seed he is. buying. it is particularly un- wise this year, as harvesting condi- tions were extremely bad in some areas of Western Canada in 1947.and much grain was damaged by weather and frost. Consequently germination of such. graie may be extremely low. There should be sufficient oats and barley of seed grades available of suitable varieties to meet normal de- mand, officials, of the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture state. The small extra t a cost of buying only grad- ed seed is' an assurance against a poor crop due to low germination....and unsuitable or mixed varieties. Less Demand For Spring Seed Wheat Because Canada .has exported. to Europe large quantities of Register- ed and Certified grades of spring wheat during the Last two years, it should not be assumede that future exports will continue at the present high level, says J. W. Mackay, Chief, Plant Production Services, Dominion Department of Agriculture, Ottawa. Most of the countries to which this wheat has been .shipped are tradi- tionally growers of winter wheat, and it is only because of unusual condi- tions during the last two years, that they have •had to resort to the use of spring wheat varieties. During the severe winter of 1946-47, most west- ern European countries suffered heavy losses to winter crops, and much of the fall seeded wheat acreage had to be replaced by spring wheat. The unprecedented drought experienced in the summer of 1947 in many of these countries reduced soil moisture to the Vent where it was considered im- practicable tosow normal acreages of winter wheat, and it was again nec- essary to depend- upon imports of spring ,wheat to obtain a crop in 1948. Under these conditions Canada ex- ported to these countries, for seeding in 1947 and 1948, about 900,000 bush- els of Registered. and. 1,250,000 bush- els of Certified grawes of spring wheat varieties. It is understood that favorable weather conditions prevail- ed in Western European countries during the whiter of 1947-48, and ,the fall sown acreage of wheat is expect- ed to provide substantial quantities for fall' seeding •purposes in 1948. It is expected that Canadian ex- ports sports of spring wheat of Registered and Certified grades to other coupe trie8, and particularly to the United States, npay.be maintained at present levels, and .possiblymay be increas- ed. The Home Gardener A useful tip forethe amateur gar- dener is to choose varieties, of vege- tables, flowers and shrubs which are recommended for the particular dis- trict in which he lives. Most seed catalogues have tables giving this in- formation, and local seed merchants are generally ready to help in making suitable selections. This is particu- lary true of hedge plants and shrubs. Kinds which will survive the milder winters in some areas, are not hardy enough to withstand the colder wea- ther elsewhere. The variety of` vegetable seed should be selected with an eye to its final use—fresh, or for canning, freezing or storing. Early and late maturing vegetable varieties are use- ful too, as by their combined use, fresh vegetables such as peas and beans can be harvested over a longer period. CONTANCE The death occurred on Thursday, April 22, in Welland, of Mary Delicia Wheatley, beloved wife of Mr. Miller Adams, in her 70th year. Mrs. Ad- ams had not been in her usual health icor the past four months and had gone to • visit her daughter„ Miss Verna E. Adams, in Weilapd, where she passed away.

Form of Fitness Health means more than mere bod- ily well-being, declares our Canadian health authorities. Although physi- cal health is important — for man needs a safe frame in which to dwell —the brilliant brain encased in a body wracked by disease is not truly heal- thy, and the sound body and clever brain warped by twisted thinking are not really well, either. Health, they tell us. 1.s, an all-round matter, involv- ing the highest form of mental aad physical fitness. Strange Springs Now that the open road begins to beckon again, National Health author- ities pass on this safety tip for those away from 'home:v.They say, "When- ever you travel into an unfamiliar countryside, carry your own water supply in thermos bottles.
