At what age do most women retire? of Lands and Forests, under agree- ment with various counties. These areas of plantations and woodlots are familiar to the public, but probably few know of the term county foorest. The basis for these forests was laid after the First World War with the municipal reforestation act, which has since been revised several times by the Legislature. The act gives each county the opportunity of acquiring land (usually submarginal farm land) and signing an agreement with the De- partment of Lands and Forests to re- forest and care for the, area for a period of 30 years, The first county to take advantage of the offer was Simcoe, which signed an agreement in 1922. Two years later, other coun- ties followed suit, one of which was York. The agreement provides that at the termination of the thirty-year period, the county has three options. The first allows the county to pay the department half of the costs to date and then continue on a 50-50 basis as to profits and costs. 41"he second per- mits the county to sell the land to the department 'at the price paid for it by the county, and, in effect, wash their hands of it completely. The third permits the county to reimburse the department for all net costs incurred by the department to date, and own the forest outright. As this period of the agreement in force nears expiration, it is evident that the plantations are still not old enough to pay their way, and, as a consequence, new agreements signed with counties are for a 50-year period, However, these do little to brighten the situation for the first counties. Simcoe ' county took a step not pro- vided for in the original agreement and requested the department to sub- stitute a 50-year agreement for the 30-year agreement when it expired, in effect extending the original agree- ment for an extra 20 years, This was granted by the department, and Sim- coo county had now 20 years to wait to exercise the privilege of selecting one of the three options set clown in the original agreement. York county took an interest in the happenings, and the council decided to request a similar extension. This assures the county of continued man- agement of its forest, This decision followed the annual council tour through Vivian Forest, During the course of the banquet and the tour, explanations - of the situation were made to the councillors and they wasted little time in acting. Vivian Forest now consists of 3232 acres, of which about 2500 acres is plantation, the remainder being nat- ural woodlot. The volume of wood on the first 800 acres planted now ex- ceeds 1,000,000 cubic feet, or over 10,000 cords. About three times this area has been planted since, but it is not yet of sufficient size to pro- duce merchantable wood. The annual growth on the 800 acres is about 300 cords, The trees planted number almost 4,500.000, Red pine has been planted in the greatest numbers, closely fol- lowed by white pine and Scotch pine, The hardwoods, excluding pop- lar, would not exceed 100,000 in num- ber. A few hardwood plantations have been attempted with minor suc- cess. Thinnings conducted in the oldest plantations have yielded over 1500 cords of wood, pit props for coal mines and pulpwood for newsprint. The forest cannot yet pay its way, but in 1949 over $9,000 was taken in revenue. RECENT & READABLE Some of the best books Written to- day have come out of experiences in the last world war, One of these is this week's book, selected for view. THE DAM BUSTERS by Paul Briekhill Early in 1943, 617 Squadron was formed for just one special job, to smash the Moehne and Eder Dams, that epic affair made the R.A. F,'s newest squadron, also its finest, the "special duties squadron." They went on to do many more unusual and 'perilous tasks, win two VC,'s and over 150 other decorations, and were described as the most effective unit of its size the British forces ever had, They were, in fact, unique; a chosen band of extremely skillful and fearless volunteers, using special weapons that could not be given to other units. This, their story, really starts three years before they were born, when a gentle, white-haired scientist dreamed up the ten-ton "earthquake bomb," and the weird weapon which the squadron used against the dams. Then they evolved, under Cheshire, V.0., a hair-raising, pin-point mark- ing and bombing technique, and were chosen to drop the new and very rare earthquake bombs on secret tar- gets. Here are the great dams raid, and the hitherto unrevealed details of how the Dam Busters destroyed Hit- ler's last secret weapon, the V 3, the fabulous 500-ft. guns that were to have wiped out London. It was 617 squadcon, too, who sank the Tirpitz. Here are these and all their other great feats, with the laughter, the drama and genius behind them, told in unusually intimate detail by the ex-Air Force pilot who wrote the best seller, The Great Escape. PAUL BRICKHILL was born in 1916, at Melbourne, Australia, and was educated at North Sydney High School and Sydney University. He volunteered in 1940, and was for five years a fighter-pilot in the Royal Australian Air Force. He flew Hur- i transferred to Spitfires, and wfus shot ,down in Tunisia on liargh 17th., 1943, A Messerschrnidt 109 blew •up both cannon magazines in the Wings of his aircraft, smashed wings, tail and controls, and wounded Erickhill in the head and back. He atterrinted to bale out, hut his parachute caught and he was only able to wriggle Clear at the last moment, to land in the middle of a minefield. Ironically, the wind filled his chute and dragged him to enemy barbed wire and cap- tivity, where he worked on "s" Es- Cape Organization. After the war he wrote Escape to Danger, worked as a journalist in Fleet Street, Germany, Austria, Hun-. gary and New York, and was one of the first party of British journalists to enter the Russian Zone of Ger- many. He returned for a short while to Australia, but came back to Eng- land and wrote The Great Escape. COMBINED EFFORT NEEDED FOR WARBLE CONTROL A drastic reduction in losses caused Canadian cattle herds by warble flies can be achieved through complete co- operation between all cattle owners, According to scientists Canadian cattlemen lost up to $15,000,000 an- nually through damage by warble flies. This consists of reduction in milk yields and weight gains due to flies bothering cattle and interfering with grazing; cattle injuring or kill- ing themselves while trying to escane the attack of flies; unthriftiness and milk yield reduction caused by warble grubs in a cow's body; grub injury to hides. Organized application of control measures in Canada have been highly effective, particularly in On tari o where government legislation enforces warble fly control. Under the Ontario Warble Fly Control Act, if more than two-thirds of cattle owners in a muni- cipality sign a petition, the municipal council must pass a by-law requiring all cattle within the municipality to be treated. Three sprayings are recommended during the year in Ontario. The first should be made between April 1 and 18; the second between May 1 and 18, and the third between June 2 and 17. There should be no less than three weeks and not more than four weeks between treatments. Cattle owners are cautioned not to dispose of unused spray material or rinse spray equipment in fish-bearing waters. Rotenone, the active ingred- ient in warble fly sprays, is highly de- structive to fish as well as warble fly grubs, although it is relatively harm- less to humans, CONSERVATION CORNER PERK POWER PACKED Iricane bombers at El Alamein Was
