Good Luck, Exeter
' Huron County will soon have a
new town if present plans material-
ize. The Village of Exeter has set in
motion the necessary machinery to
erect the municipality into a town.
Since nearby Centralia was select-
ed as the site of a flying school in
01941, the growth of Exeter has been
Steady, and today it is said to have a
population in excess of 2,400. The
tact the Centralia Station was con-
tinued on a permanent basis in the
R.C.A.F. peacetime program has
meant that the wartime population
increase has been maintained.
The citizens of the municipality
have shown a readiness to accept the
responsibilities which go hand in
hand with a growing population. A
)modern district high school was op-
lened several months ago, and now
plans are under way for a quarter
million dollar hospital and a new
public school.
We rather suspect, however, that
regardless of" whether they call it a
village or a town, the citizens of Exe-
ter will continue to be industrious,
isuccessful and community -minded,
and that their contribution, as the
largest municipality in the southern
part of Huron will be in the future as
in the past, a major factor in the
economy of the County.
We who live in Seaforth, a town
for more than seventy years, con-
gratulate the citizens of Exeter and
wish them every success in their de-
si;e to seek a new status.

Farmers Are Versatile
A farmer to be successful has to
be, if not a specialist, at least fam-
iliar with a variety of tasks of which
his neighbor in town or city has nev-
er heard. He must be a mechanic,
ready to repair a broken machine,
or plumber, or contractor, to keep
his farm plant in good condition.
And every farmer is a chemist whe-
ther he realizes it or not. In his fields
and his barns he supervises one of
the greatest chemical processes—the
producing of food for man. When
he has the food produced he must
have a knowledge of markets, and of
how the food he has grown reaches
the consumer.
But above all he must be versatile
and ready to solve on a moment's no-
tice, a variety of problems which
array be new to him.
Proof that the farmer is readily
adaptable to almost any situation is
contained in a story the Milverton
Sun tells. Aaron Steckley, a farmer
in the Milverton district, found, on
going into his barn in the morning,
that a valuable pure bred cow had
fallenduring the night and broken
her leg.
"Ordinarily she would have been
killed," the Sun says, "and the car-
cass sold to a packing plant, but the
fact that she was due to calve in a
day or two gave Mr. Steckley consid-
erable concerti, as he did not want to
lose both cow and calf. But what to
do was the problem—it was not like-
ly the calf would be born normally
,when the cow had a broken leg. A
telephone consultation with a veter-
inarian did not give him a great deal
of: encouragement as means suggest-
ed of saving the calf was to admin -
kilter drugs to the cow which would
',sender the meat unfit for consump-
1k,n. There was only one solution—
Apat was to kill the cow and remove
re calf by Caesarian section

of this nature, but they went ahead
just the same. A bullet alto the head
of the caw started the proceedings;
she was stabbed immediately and
then with deft hands they commenc-
ed their effort at surgery. Surpris-
ing as it may seem, the two amateurs
delivered the oalf, and while Mr.
Steckley was working on it to start
it breathing, Mr. Hamel made the
startling discovery that there was a
second calf. As the first one was
breathing normally by this time, alI
efforts were put forth to save the
second one, and believe it or not—
they were successful. As a result of
their resourcefulness, and quick ac-
tion, Mr. Steckley has two fine pure
bred Holstein calves. "They're dan-
dies," says Mr. Steckley, "and doing
fine." In addition, he was able to re-
alize a fairly good sum for the car-
cass of the dead cow when it was dis-
posed of to a packing plant."
While this may be an unusual case,
the Sun suggests in conclusion that
"it certainly is convincing proof that
a farmer must be a man of all trades
and be ready at all times to put his
ideas into action."

Summer Carnival
To thousands of people in the Sea -
forth district, mid-July means the
annual Seaforth Lions Summer
Carnival. This year the 15th annual
carnival is being held on July 19, 20
and 21.
Members of the Club are sparing
no effort in their endeavor to make
the 1950 Carnival the best yet. The
thousands who will throng the Lions
Park on each of the carnival nights
will know that not only will they ob-
tain full value for their money, but
at the same time they will make pos-
sible the continued operation of the
park which they enjoy throughout
the summer season. All profits from
the carnival go towards the main-
tenance and improvement of the
Park and the Lions welfare work.

Worthwhile • Booklet
One of the features of the success-
ful Old Boys' Reunion which was
held in Mitchell last week, was the
issuing of a souvenir booklet of the
town.
Consisting of 60 pages, the book-
let by word and picture reviewed the
history of the town from that day in
1836 when John Hicks became the
first settler of what later was to be-
come Mitchell. It contains pictures
of many of the business establish-
ments as they exist today.
The booklet was produced in its
entirety in the plant of the Mitchell
Advocate. Both from the standpoint
of its contents and the excellence of
its appearance, it is a credit to Mrs.
Mounteer, the publisher of that
weekly, and all who were associated
with her in its production.

Libelous?
(Port Elgin Times)
Making a general observation
means little in a city paper, but in the
case of a weekly paper if it referred
to a local citizen as "as crooked as a
dog's hind leg, a grafter and trouble
maker, possesses all Of the morals of
an alley cat and as a menace to the
community," nearly everybody would
know who you were talking about. If
you mentioned the name it would be
libelous, but few names are necessary
in a small town, where everyone's
life is an open book.

Rebuke To a Ruffiian
(The Ingersoll Tribune)
This is a message to one person.
We hope he reads it --and we hope
he remembers. We hope, even, that
it may trouble his mind. The person
this message is intended for was
driving up Oxford Street Friday
when the car hit a dog. Don't wor-
ry, nobody took down the license
number of your car because nobody
saw it happen. The dog, a pretty,
black Cocker Spaniel, was found ly-
ing in the middle of the road. It was
very dead. You didn't stop to see if
it was still alive, although It hap-
peneda few steps from a veterinar-
ian's house. You didn't bother to
stop and find out who the dog be-
longed to. In short, you didn't care,
did you? The dogbelonged to an
eight-yearrold girl—it
was a birth-
day present -and she loved it.
British Debt In Sterling
Is . A Big Headache
(By Joseph E. Evans, in Wall Street Journal, New York)
Want to •build a reservoir in
Ramapadasagar? A dam on the
Damodar? Whether you want to
or not, some United States tax
money may soon be helping fin-
ance projects like these in far-
away India.
It isn't India that's asking you
to foot its industrialization bill;
the British are already paying a
sizable chunk of it by way of re-
paying, a- war debt once close to
$3 billion. It's the United States
Government which thinks the
American taxpayers ought to take
some of this burden off the shou-
ders of the British taxpayer. Says
an American official in London:
"We've let the British stew over
this thing for four years. Now we
think we should be taking an ac-
tive part in settling it."
He's referring to Britain's debt
to India. Britain also owes coun-
tries like Pakistan, Egypt, Cey-
lon, Iraq, Brazil and Uruguay.
At the end of last year, these
debts totalled more than $9.3 bil-
lion, on top of which Britain has
paid back over $1.8 billion since
the war. India is merely the
largest single cror.
These debts are called sterling
balances; that is accumulations of
British pound sterling to the cred-
it of the various countries. What
exactly the U.S. should or will do
about them is not yet clear, but
American, British and Canadian
government officials in Washing-
ton have been mulling over this
problem, among others, since Iast
September.
One thing the U.S. could do
would be to buy the sterling bal-
ances. Another thing the U.S.
could do would be to extend
direct aid to India and perhaps to
some of the other countries hold-
ing sterling balances, in proportion
as they would write off or scale
down .. the British debts. Some
variation on this is likely to em-
erge from the Washington discus-
sions, but so far the only thing
sure about whatever proposal
comes forth is that it will cost
dollars.
Meantime the British Labor
government is being attacked on
all sides for its handling of the
sterling debts. The creditors com-
plain the sterling balances are be-
ing "released"—that is,unblocked
for spending—too skimpily. The
Conservative Party, which pounc-
es on the balances at every op-
portunity, charges just the reverse.
It says the releases are being made
on a scale far more lavish than
Britain can afford. The Economic
Co-operation Administration also
thinks the relea es are too gener-
ous for Britain economic well-
being.
By the end of 1947 releases, to-
talled about $450 million; in 1948
they were $757 million; last year,
$610 million. The critics always
point to India as the prime recipi-
ent of Britain's extravagance. By
this summer India will have been
allowed to spend nearly $650 mil-
lion of the sterling standing to its
credit, whereas it was originally
intended that it should be ,allowed
to spend only about $225 million
up, to that time.
With the hefty aid of its ster-
ling balance, India is Britain's best
customer. Last year it took some
14 per cent of all British machin-
ery exports, 25 per cent of total
British textile machinery exports,
eight per cent of all generator ex-
ports, 24 per cent of sugar making
and refinery machinery, five per
cent of vehicles, 12 per cent of
chemicals, dyes and colors.
American.officials and many Bri-
tons contend the sterling releases
are inflationary for the British' do-
mestic economy. That they collide
heard-bn with the British govern-
ment's attempt to expand exports
to dollar markets. That they help
keep the pound sterling a weak
currency. That they confine Bri-
tain's trade. That they are a dis-
criminatory trade weapon. "All
that," says one American, "adds
up to postponing the day when we
can stop supporting Britain."
The upshot of the arrangement
is that a large proportion of Bri-
tain's exports do not earn current
foreign exchange with which it
can buy new imports.
These unrequited exports are
already playing'hob with exports
to dollar markets. Many British
exporters who could be earning
dollars — which is what Britain
needs — by selling to the United
States and Canada are indeed
"earning" pounds sterling—which
Britain doesn't need—by "selling"
to places like India.
Since the exporter is not allow-
ed to keep any dollars he earns
from sales in the United States,
there is no advantage for him to
sell there rather than anywhere
else. "In fact," says one, "we get
higher prices on some things in

Crop Report For Huron' County
Cattle are in very fine condition
because of the exceptionally fine
pasture conditions, according to R.
G. Bennett, agricultural represent-
ative for Huron County. Haying
has been held up for the greater
part of last week by intermittent
showers. Some hay is quite badly
bleached, although the amount is
not as large as it might have been
since a number of farmers chose
to leave the shay standing and wait
for the weather to clear.
Spring grain and winter wheat
look very promising, also sugar
beets. Howecer, corn and field
beans are making slow growth due
to the cool weather.
Local employment offices report
having received a number of har-
vesters this week, with still others
reported on the way.
Grass Waterways Effective
"Many thousands of dollars dam-
age have been done this past
spring to good arable fields which
suffered erosion because the soils
were not covered with grass, grain
or legumes, and chiefly in many
cases because the natural run-off
waterways were not grassed," says
the Department of Soils, O.A.C.
Not only were many fields deep-
ly streaked in the spring where
waterways had washed away tons
of valuable top soil, but every gal-
lon of drainage water that ran
off the soil carried appreciable
amounts of nitrogen, phosphoric
acid; potash, lime and other essen-
tial plant nutrients. These cost
money to return either in manure
or fertilizers. If _the waterways
had been grassed much loss would
have been prevented.
.A well illustrated Extension Cir-
cular No. 81, issued by the Ontario
Department of Agriculture early in
June, gives the following mixture
and treatment as being particular-
ly effective:
Grass Legume Seeding Mixture,
Reed canary grass, Red Top, Ken-
tucky Blue Brome Grass, Creeping
Red Fescue, with Ladino Clover,
White Dutch Clover.
Use three grasses with a clover
and seed at the rate of 25 pounds
of mixture per acre.
Fertilize heavily with 4-12-10 and
topdress with manure.
Proof of the value of grass wa-
terways last spring can be seen
at the Waterloo Soil Conservation
demonstration where there was lit-
tle or no washing of soil where wa-
terways were grassed. On sur-
rounding areas under similar con-
ditions much damage was done by
surface washing. The Soils Depart-
ment em a.
Ph size the following
points:
1. After heavy rains inspect and
repair damaged channels.
2. Keep vegetation on grass wa-
terways from growing too tall.
Mow two or three times.
3. When seeding, fertilize liber-
ally so as to get a strong stand of
grass.
•
4. Prevent ever grazing wliteh
would destroy the protective ceVer,
5- Do not use waterways as a
lane for livestock or moving im-
plements.
6. Raise all implements out of
soil when crossing the waterway.
7. Leave an irregular edge on
waterways to avoid gulleys form-
ing on sides.

circular can be had free from your

Off Types Found in Oats
Treated With 2,4-0
Several varieties of oats have
been treated with 2,4-D during the
past few years at the Dominion
Experimental Farm, Indian Head,
Sask. Ester, amine and sodium
salt formulations have been used
at rates varying from two ounces
to 32 ounces of acid equivalent per
acre. The crop was sprayed at
three stages, 3 -leaf (six inches
high), shot blade, and heading.
Numerous off -types have appear-
ed, says E. Buglass, the amount
varying with the variety of oats,
formulation and rate of 2,4-D. The
kind of off -types are the same re-
gardless of treatment or variety.
Split leaves, onion -like leaves, and
irregular blister-like lesions are
frequently found, but it is in the
development of the head that the
effect of 2,4-0 'is most noticeable
in the production of off -type
growth. Twisted and distorted
panicles are frequently found.
Twin panicles (heads) are fre-
quently found, that is, two or more
panicles can be found arising from
the top joint instead of the usual
one. Plants have been found with
one main panicle, and four or five
additional panicles growing from
the last node, usually enclosed by
the leaf sheath.
When treated at the shot blade
and heading stages very few off -
types were found. Off -types were
frequent. when the oats were treat-
ed at the three -leaf stage.
The varieties reacted differently
in the development of off -types,
Ajax producing the least, and Exe-
ter the greatest amount. Victory
and Vanguard fell in between, but
were more like the Exeter.
Sodium salt induced the fewest
off -types and ester the most, with
amine in between but more like
the ester. Generally the rates of
application caused' an increase in
the amount of off -types from the
low to the thigh rates. The two -
ounce rate of ester produced more
off -types in all varieties treated
than did' the eight ounce rate of
the amine or sodium salt.
In 1949 second growth Was pro-
fuse, particularly when treated at
the three -leaf stage. Off -type de-
velopment in the second growth
followed the same trend as in the
mature plants.
Seed from off -type plants has
been g rovr n to the third genera-
tion, and So far there is no indi-
cation that th'e off -type characters
are inherited, Plante grdWn from
