He felt Gordon Hill, who was a mernber of the committee, had a "wonderful opportunity" to present his suggestions to the gov't.

One example of the lack of etipport given farm organizations by the gov't was the limited budget provided for the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement As- sociation, which could not af- ford to finance its own conven- tion.

He had tried to question the operator about the letting of the contract but the man drove away when he (Strang) ap- proached. He asked MacNaughton how the man was engaged, if tenders were called. "If this is not a political issue, why so much sudden activity at the site?" In his reply, MacNaughton said Tom Pryde dedicated the last two years of his, life to secure the hospital for the rid- ing. "It's going to be built and we'llbe proud of it," he said. On further questioning from Strang, MaeNaughton revealed bids had been called for by telephone "to avoid delay" from all known owners of machines. He cited off hand five of the names of the bidders and the lowest and highest bids, indicat- ing the former was accepted. When Strang stated the bids snouts nave; Ween properly an. vertised, MacNaughton offered to let the Liberal candidate see his file on the complete' de. velopment - in connection with the hospital. In reply to criticisms concern- ing marketing legislation, Mac.' Naughton bluntly told farmers: "Each and every regulation has come into being because you, through your organizations, ask- ed fir it. If you don't like what is going on, it's up to you to get into those organizations to express your views." Rae Watson suggested hydro was overcharging farmers be- cause 25 percent of their pre. sent rate was earmarked for rural extension. "There's no further need for further exten• sion," he said, Questioned about the hog situ. ation, Watson said the first thing the Liberals would do would be to call a "fair and square, legal vote." Hill asked ]Tim how he would improve on the last one and Watson admitted he didn't know.

Vast world never seen The nematodes taken from a 10 -acre field, if arranged single file, would form a procession long enough to reach around the world. • •- What are nematodes? They are small animals some- times called "round worms" or "eelworms" explains Dr, A. D. Baker, of the Entomology Re- search institute, Canada Depart- ment of Agriculture, Dr. Baker, a recognized autho- rity, is carrying on research in this field. A nematode is a worm, but not all worms are nematodes. There are many other animals that are referred to as worms for ex- ample, earthworms, insect lar- vae and tapeworms. Nematodes are found practi- cally everywhere. Soil that sup- ports plant growth literally teems with them and they abound in oceans as well as in fresh water. Why are they not as well known as insects? Well concealed Because, says Mr, Baker, they are usually found in environ - merits where they are well con- cealed. And, unlike the insect, a nematode does not run or jump about, It has no legs or feet and moves around by wiggling its body. The length of a nematode does riot change as it moves. The length of an earthworm does. Movements of a nematode, how- ever, arc not the same as those of a snake, The snake bends from side to sick, .A nematode bends up anti down. This type of movement is called dragotlic, hi contrast to the serpentine move- ment of a snake. Many nematodes are harmful and many are riot, says Dr. Baker, Some. of !them are even beneficial in that they feed on harmful nematodes and other or. gamins, Few people have seen !hent; few People know what they are, Vet nematodes riopulato a vast unseen World��,, to follow VLA change? By W. H. A. THOMAS Last,week, the minister of vet- erans affairs introduced a reso- lution to amend the Veterans Land Act, to make it more ef- fective under present conditions. This Act has been in effect for 15 years and has proven very successful. It provides for the rehabilitation of veterans in several different ways. Under this Act loans were made to assist veterans to be- come established as full-time farmers or fishermen, Loans were also made to assist„ vet- erans to obtain homes in rural and surburban areas with a small acreage where they could live cheaply while working for salar- ies or wages. In full-time farming and fish- ing, and small holding loans, substantial grants were allowed if the veteran kept up to the terms of his contract for ten years. Loans were aaso made to as- sist veterans to build under the terms of the National !lousing Act. These loans, under the NHA, had no grant benefits. Values have changed greatly during these 15 years. Real es- tate, in many areas, has dou- bled, or more than doubled, in value and prices generally have kept pace with real estate. The original loans under the act were limited to $6,000 and this limit was generally satisfactory. A limit of $6,000 however, is of little use under present day prices and during the interven- ing years, the limits have been adjusted upwards. The present amendments 'increase the loan limits to $20,000 for full-time farming and to $10,000 for home building. increase in the VLA loan limit will be of great interest to all. farmers whether veterans or not, It gives some indication of the thinking of the govern- ment concerning farm credit. A review of the Canadian Farm Loan Act and, their farm credit legislation is in the offing, and it would be -a reasonable as- sumption that the present loan limit of $15,000 under the farm loan act is likely to be brought into line with the limit under the VLA, The price of soya beans for the 1959 crop has been stabilized at $2.00 per bushel.. This is ten cents less than for, the 1958 crop but is fifteen cents more than the American support price of $1.85. We did our hest to help persuade the government to hold the price support line but they fear .too great a spread between our support price and the 'U.S. support price.
