YOUNG BTLL is no economist, no social
:reformer. But he's,a practical planner just the same.
His nickles and dimes are going into War Savings,
and he has his own ideas about how he will use them
when the war is over.
Youxo BILL typifies the spirit of all Canadian
youth . a quality of self-reliance. and personal
Initiative that has made the country great. No one
is going to plan Es future for him. He's taking a hand
\himself!

The fire siren at the fire hall in
Mitchell was set in motion at about
3.40 a. in. Sun. morning bya couple
of airmen from Clinton. They were.
stranded in Mitchell but had to get
back to Clinton, Thinking the tele-
phone at the fire hall was just an
ordinary affair, they were going to
call a taxi to come .and •get them.
However, that phone when rung
starts the siren. It awakened the
firemen who responded at headquart-

they realized what they had done.

CIean Crops for Success 1
(Experimental Farms News)
To be successful in any enterprise
it is necessary to apply the most up-
to-date methods. A clean field of vege-
table crops is like a well managed
house where the least amount of dust,
moths, and salvage are to be found.
Careful management of the soil, dis-
posal of waste materials, use of man-
ure and fertilizer, control of weeds
and the protection of the plants
against insects and diseases, are all
comparable to gooey house keeping,
states 1'. F. Ritchie, Division of Hor-
ticulture, Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa. ,
Clean fields are an indication of
prosperity in the offing and it is much
better to have the crops making use
of all the plant food and moisture than
to have 'thetas competing with weeds.
Just as soon as the plants are larg
enough' so that the rows can be seen,
cultivation should be started, using
the wheel hoe close to the rows end
.the power or horse drawn cultivator
where time rows are wide enough. Fre-
quent scuttling will keep the weeds
down. Hoeing and thinning should- be
done promptly so as to encourage the
plants to make rapid unchecked
growth. Where the plants have been
transplanted, cultivation should be gi-
ven as soon as possible. It is not ne-
cessary to give deep cultivation in the
fore part the season. Less injury will
be done to the roots where shallow
scuttling is given and just as good re-
sults will be obtained.
Keep all weeds from going to seed
no matter how small they ars, as the
seeds from these plants will insure
a good stand of weeds the'next season.
Prevention is better that cure.
Be rrcmpt will all disease and in-
sect control 'measures. Obtain a spray
calendar and other pubilcations on
vegetable growing from the Publicity
and Extension Division, Dominion De -
pertinent of Agriculture, Ottawa. The
materials needed for the disease and
insect control work should be on hand
for immediate use. The way to be suc-
cessful in vegetable crop production
is to be ready to cope with any emer-
gency.
