FLAVoK•P5acT Wei; %/ DON'T LOOK LIKE A GREENHORN IN A CANOE The following Editoral appeared in the Mail & Empire of Saturday and we are reprinting here as Mr. Reg. Blomfield is well-known here having been Manager of the Dominion Bank in this town for some time. "The canoe is -frequently blamed for drowning accidents, but the crit- icism is unfair to this delightful means of navigation. It is the user who is to blame in most cases and not the canoe itself. No primitive craft ever excelled in utility, as well as beauty, the birch bank' canoe of our Canadian Indians. They were us- ed by fur traders, explorers and pi- oneers to cross the continent through rivgrs and lakes, some broken by treacherous rapids; others exposed to the sweep of the winds. But acci- dents in those days were infrequent.. The families of those navigators were brought up. to the proper handling of canoes and were equally success- ful. But other means of transporta- tion were developed- anrd the canoe gradually lost ;its predominance, To- day there are many thousands who never 'see a canoe until a "hot spell" brings them to the water. Then they step into it and hinc zllae lachrymae. pr No one deplores more than skiff canoeists the pact' name given to the favorite craft, Their enjoyment too frequently checked . by the spe tacle of people, ignorant but sol confident, starting out on the, .wate Mr, Reg. Blornfield, Canada's champ, ion trick canoeist, writes to the Ma and Empire that a caeoe, if properl handled, will weather almost any so of a sea, rough water- or rapids, b the canoeist must be kneeling or si ting in the bottom: At least 90 pe cent. Of all canoeing accidents ar caused by the ;occupant sitting on seat ora deck. He point out ho easy it is, if one upset, to empty th canoe. and climb back into it. It i a knack which docs not depend o strength and ii readily acquired. boy of eight years can do the tric when shown how. To shake out canoe take from 10 to 15 second and requires less effort, than totow it ashore to empty it there. Mr. Blomfield says, what every good canoeist will admit, that to change positions in a canoe is per- fectly safe is you know how, but oth- erwise it is "not so good." When greenhorns try to change positions they generally come to grief. Then he adds a piece of advicewell worth remembering: "Now boys and girls I • ani going to let you in on a real:. secret. If you see a paddler' sitting on a seat or deck, he is a greenhorn and has not done enough paddling to remain on his knees 'without cramp- ing. He started late inlife, and has lazy habits. A real canoeist kneels on both knees. It is the proper way and the position which is less tiring. Try some real, long, daily trips, say from 30 to 40 miles, and you will know what I mean." u1' A7 it y rt ut. t - r e a w. e n A k a s Mr. Blomfield .suggests that swim- mers should take a canoe with them and practice balancing stunts in ord- er to learn the peculiarities of the craft, The advice is practicable and promises. Iots of fun for the swimm- ers. He also urges that canoeing be Nought in'. schools, the sante as swim- ming, but there are already com- plaints that the curriculum is over- loaded.

FARM NEWS AND VIEWS Published by direction of Hon. Robt. Weir, Minister of Agri- culture, Ottawa, 1932 Native Canadian Fungus Brown root rot has been observed on sweet clover, alfalfa, and common clover growing hi southern and cent- ral parts of Alberta, and Saskachewan as far north as Athabasca and Beav- erlodge in Alberta. The fungus is native and apparently abundant in the cultivated black soils of the pra- irie area mentioned. The disease has not been reported as occuring else- where in Canada, or in foreign count- ries.—Dominion Laboratory, Edmon- ton. Dilitory Flies It is to be remembered that a 100 per cent clean orchard this year does not mean 100 per cent clean in 1934, simply because 5 per cent or more of the apple maggots will not emerge as flies form the soil this year ,but will wait until next year to do so.—Dom. inion Department of Agriculture. New Analytical Laboratory A suitable building has been se- cured on Sussex Street, Ottawa, by the 1)ontinion Seed Branch for the fitting up of a chemical and micro - analytical laboratory in place of the one on Victoria Street destroyed by fire recently. As soon as the neces- sary benches, plumbing-, etc., have been installed, the various officers will be advised when feeding stuffs samples may again received for anal- ysis. Exhibitions and Winter Fairs Class "A" exhibitions and winter fairs which receive grants from the Dominion Government are open to competition to exhibitors in Canada and other countries desiring to com- pete, but, if indicated by provincial policy, tompetition may be limited to the province in question,—Domin- ion Live Stock Branch, Ottawa. Hay end Straw Inspection The Hay and Straw Inspection Act, 1933, which received Royal es- t the other day, empowers the ish regulations prescribing stand- s of class, quality and. condition bay and straw; (b) By inspection tificate to certify the class, quill - and condition; and such inspect-. certificates issued by officers ap- )ted by law shall be accepted in son Mi abl ard for ter ity ay, and visited at Arthur 1;1411's. ion Mr. and Mrs. Gannett of Bluevale, Doh the courts as prima facie evidence of the particulars therein set out; (c) To prescribe the places where aqd the conditions under which hay and straw shall be inspected and the charges made for such inspection. Sections 156 to 165 of the Inspec- tion and Sale Act, 1927, are repealed. These sections dealt with hay grades for the eastern provinces, western provinces arid N.W.T.; standards weights for hay and straw in Quebec; grading of straw, reasons for grading inspection of scales; imported hay, penalty for not affixing tag to bale of hay or straw, and penalty for put - inspectors may be appointed as a required for' the purpose of this A crte • B.C. And Prairie_Lainbs In the three years' economic su vey of range sheep production i Western Canada in 1929, 1930 an 1931, by the Dominion Agricultur Economics Branch, it was found the. the advantages accorded the Britis Columbia sheep rangers over those i _Alberta were that with plenty o summer shade, water and soft, sac culent grass, the B.C. men were abl to sell 'a heavier lamb directly Iron the mountain ranges, and as a rut receive fat lamb prices. Further by raising more twin lambs than th rangers .on the prairies, the B.C. ran gers Were able to show a higher per centage of lamb crop. There were however, no 'significant differences betweeia the average weights of fleece. al Spring Flowering Bulbs The propagation of spring flower- ing bulbs, such as crocus, fritillaria, narcissus and tulip, is by offsets which grow at the sides of the par- ent bulb. When the clumps are be- coming crowded and the flowers small, the bulbs should be dug up. This will be when the leaves have turned brown about June or July. These bulbs are dried gradually and„ 'stored until September, when are cleaned, the large ones being put back into the border and the small , ones planted out in a row in the veg- etable garden to grow into flower-- ing sized bulbs.

The Care of Loaned I3ulls Realizing the importance of exer- cise in maintaining a bull in healthy, vigorous condition, and with a view to increasing and prolonging. the use- fulness of bulls now on loan, the Hon. Robert Weir, Dominion Minis- ter of Agriculture, has made it a re- quirement that ,proper fabilities for breeding and exercising purposes must be furnished in future for all bulls loaned by the Department. The Minister realizes that many associa- tions are already adequately equipped hi this respect, but in the case where proper facilities do not eXiSt, it is expected that steps will be taken with the least possible delay to provide the necessary accommodation. The Cattle Division of the Live Stock Branch has tent out a tentative plan of enclosure, merely by way of help- ful suggestion and not as an order for adoption, At the same time, con- tinuance of assistance to each indi- vidual unit will depend upon assur- ance being received that proper fac- ilities are in existence.
