Authorized as Second Class Mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa SEAFORTH, Friday, August 8, 1947 Western Crop Prospects Reliable - crop reports from the three Western Provinces seem to in- dicate that the grain crops will at least equal the long term average in spite of an unusually late start. A considerable acreage in North- ern • Saskatchewan has suffered heavily from lack of rain, and the same is true of a considerable 'see tion in the eastern and central parts of Alberta. Floods in other parts- of the Western Provinces have caused considerable 'havoc with grain crops, tut the outlook in Manitoba is ex- ceedingly good. There are, of course, still many hazards ahead of the rapidly ripen- ing grain. An early frost or an ex- ceptionally wet fa11 could cut down the yields to some. extent as well as the grades, But western farmers -are anything but pessimists and they, don't go out looking for trouble. There is no doubt but that condi- tions have been better in the West as a whole, but prospects, on the whole, over the three provinces, _ are exceedingly encouraging, and 'we hope fortune will still stick with the Western farmers until every bushel of grain has been threshed and stor- ed. Nurse Shortage During very recent years there has developed in Ontario a shortage ' of nurses that has reached the stage where it is adversely affecting the public health. For this there are several causes, one of which is very concisely stated by the editor of the Walkerton Herald -Times: - "Some years' ago ; the Registered Nurses' Association gave birth to the idea that the only place where nurs- es could be properly graduated was from the larger hospitals. The Gov- ernment of that day listened to this and passed legislation denying the right of hospitals inthe smaller towns to' graduate trained nurses. "This was fine for a time and the .N. R. Association had a Roman holi- day, sat in the driver's seat and rah everything. .There was one 'thing they _could not do, however, and that was to supply the demand for gradu- ate nurses. Conditions have kept getting out bf hand ever since until the shortage of trained nurses has reached almost the calamitous stage. The .answer to that condition is the smaller hospital." As a matter of fact, there is no oth- er answer if the smaller hospitals are going to keep their doors open. To do that they. must have competent help which will keep their operating costs 'down to a reasonable level. We understand the Ontario Government is now proposing to set up nursing aid training classes in these hospi- tals, or to obtain candidates from the areas in which hospitals are situ' ated and to get an understanding from these' candidates that they will return to the hospital in their home districts after they have completed their course. But the real solution of help to the smaller hospitals and- the nurse shortage would be the reduction of the educational standards for nurses to be eligible for training, to the for- mer level. Tribute To Viscount Bennett It is perhaps, rather generally known, , that The E/Ipositor was nev- er a Poli wer of Mr. Bennett, nor ►ever an ' adherent of his political hrt� but regardless of that we „ are y� g' very prompt to acknowledge that he was a great statesman and one of Canada's greatest sons, who spent the greater part of his: life in work- ing for the advancement of his na- tive country from his point of view. There are two rather outstanding coincidences about the Rt. Hon. Vis—,, count Bennett. He was the first Prime Minister of a member`'of the British Commonwealth, apart, . of course, from Great Britain to be-. come a , member of the House of Lords, A second is that one of the mem- bers who paid tribute to Lord Ben- nett after his death, was the Earl of Bessborough, who was the Governor- General of Canada during the life of the Bennett -Government. - Speaking with his special knowl- edge, Lord Bessborough had this to say: "During the months when the Fed- eral Parliament was in session, when we were both always in Ottawa, I naturally saw a very- great deal of him, sometimes :daily. No Governor- General could possibly have had an adviser more considerate and more helpful, and I very •soon learnt not only to admire his qualities as a pub- lic man, but to have a very great affection for him as a man and a friend." • Weedless Elmira The unique experiment of the Town of . Elmira in trying to make it a weedless town, and one which has brought it a ,great deal of public- ity across Canada, has been told in this paper before. - Recently the Elmira Signet said that the plan is working out even • better than optimists predicted. The chemical -with which the lawns, gar- dens., streets and vacant lots were sprayed in June, it explains, does not kill the weeds instantly. It is absorb• ed by the leaves of certain plants, but not the grass, and, affects the in= ternal structure, in as yet some un- known way, so , that in a few weeks the -weeds shrivel up and die, leav- ing only' a hole in the ground where the weed roots were. g - The Signet says• that the first spraying was very effective and that the lawns and other places where the treatment was applied show a great- ly improved appearance. A. second treatment will be applied this month, and the few 'remaining weeds 'will then -be destroyed. There are a great many i`ither towns in Ontario who are becoming weed conscious, and who are gain- ing the conviction that what can be done in Elmira can be done else- where: And we would say that it not only can, but should be done throughout the Province. That applies equally well- to town- ships as to towns. And particularly to township roads. Many concession roads are but dense forests of weeds, and until they are completely eradi-: cated, its is pretty nearly a hopeless task for any farmer to keep his fields clean. • Getting Service In "Russia The New ,York Herald -Tribune recently published a despatch receiv- ed from Moscow which it ran with- out change or comment, because, possibly, it felt there was nothing more it could add to that paper's pic- ture of every -day life in Russia, as. it affects the common citizen. A. Vikatorov, who waited for more than a year to get his leather boots repaired 'by'a state co-operative, did not wait in vain. Itwas announced today that his boots have been re- paired, and that Comrade ' Vinogra- dov, manager of the repair shop, has been fired for bureaucracy. Another ^ bureaucrat, Comrade Perskin, who gave 'a returned war veteran • the run-around when the ' veteran applied for living qua''rters, has also been removed from office. Credit for action on each case goes to ."The Moscow Bolshevick," a Com- , munist newspaper, which first pub licized them. There has been no recent news concerning the plight of Citizen Guzairov, who • has been trying for seven years to have a, hole ih the wail of his apartment repaired. easeseseasase Years A orie itlaterestin€ items picked from The luxpositor of at,/ and twentr•ave roars' ago.

PHIL OSIF.:ER of LAZY ADWS.,, James Whitcomb Riley called it "Hey, Old -Midsummer," and really that's a pretty good way of describ- ing it right now. I can't quite re- meniber` how the American poet put it, but it went something like, "Hey, old Midsummer! Are you here again, with all your harvest -store of golden joys,' vast •overhanging meadowlands of rain,. and drowsy dawns, and moons when golden grain nods in'ethe sun, and 'lazy truant boys dilift over list- lessly adownt the day, too full of joy to rest, and dreams. to play." My grandfather used to say that summer was Nature smiling. Come to ,think of it, that's not such at bad description e'lthei'. ` Go any place on the farm these days .-. , providing we've got the weather and summer is smiling: You may sit ou the gang- way into the barn and chew a s•talk of hay, waiting for the next load to come' up. or else you clay be simply hoeing turnips . . .. or slipping down along the creek to try and catch that big chub that's 'been lurking about -but look around you!

The next morning she received five ans*ers.

Childs„ Veterinary Director General. This disease, the most contagiousand the most costly:. to •which farm animals except horses; are- readily: susceptible, has never oc- cursed in Canada. The most exact- ing •, measures of precaution are al- ways iv effect at Canadian seaports and at international boundary points, but since the Health of Animals Divi- sion has been advised of the outbreak of the disease in Mexico every' in- spector at .seaports and points pn the international border have beens ad- vesed to be doubly Ratchful. Dr. Child s• h brea Stat' been advised, that the out- xtends through 16 Mexican Federal District of Mexico City, involving 335 munici- palities. Up to the end of last June, 168,400 bead of cattle and 68,000 sheep, goats and swine have had to be slaughtered in an effort to prevent the spread of the disease. The Bur- eau of Animal Industry;'Unitedtate's Department of Agriculture is, says Dr. Childs, naturally gravely alarmed over the outbreak of the disease in, Mexico, so much so that the United States Government has appropriated $8,000,000 to assist the Mexivan Gov- ernment in the efforts to prevent the spread of the disease and if possible eradicate it. Mexico is presently spending $8,35.0,000. The U.S.D.A. has a staff of 144 qualified, . persons co-operating with the staff of the Mexicaln Department of Agriculture in combating the disease. Foot ands -Mouth disease in"Mekiee creates a menace to Canadian - farm- ers in that the disease has been con- firmed on the INorth`•American con- tinent. The whole situatiqn is being very closely watched with a view td preventing the introduction of the, dis- ease into Canada, said the Veterin- ary Director General. Fertilizer Supplies The extreme shortage of Lnitrogen for fertilizer purposes is disclosed in the initial recommendations for the distribution ,of this chemical among more than 1100 claimant countries., made by the anternational Ewergency Food Council, Washington. The gov- ernments to which therecommenda- tions are made ,submitted 1947-48 re- quirbments for .2,740,000 metric tons of nitrogen. The supply'avail'able for distribution falls some 800,000 tons short of these requirements, "Many eeu.ntries with huge popuiatiodns .to feed are desperately .in xthed, Of more nitrogenous' fertilizers 4. to lncreas.e their crop yieldsy`.'..,the enetell Sante 1. out, "The acute shortage now eaifst- ing comes about in spite of t•he fact that world, production of nitrogen in 1947-48 will equal pre-war. The need is 'wow much greater than pre-war because soil fertilitylost_during the war. years must be restored and greater populations must be fed-" Some countries depend entirely on imported nitrogen, while others bei produce and import, Five 'Countries produce more nitrogen than they need for their own agriculture. These are Canada, Chile, United Kingdom, Bel- gium and Norway, and recommehda: tions will be made by .the Council to the Governments -of these exporting countries, so that• the surplus nitro- gen will be distributed to best 'ad- vantage among other countries which lack adequate supplies. Should 13e Variety of Canned Products There will '.be a gold variety of canned fruits and vegetables. on gro-, cers' shelves this.' winter, Despite a short crop of 'some • kinds of fruits and vegetables, commercial canning companies will nevertheless bd able to keep the consumer happy^, says 1?. J. Perry, Chief Canning, Inspector, Dominion Department of Agrieulture. While emphasizing that much de- pends on a continuance' of good grow- ing weather and favorable conditions, at harvest, Mr. P,erry finds many cheerful items id examining the like- lihood of this year's canning,opera- tions. The strawberry crop, is over and it was a good one—the largest in sev- eral years. While canned strawber- ries were unobtainable for two , or three years 'during the war,.owing to shortage of metal. for cans, this year's•. pack will probably be, equal to that of the sizeable pack of 1941, Mr, perry foresees more strawberry jam than usual; but.no more frozen straw- berries than were packed last "year, There will be a less than average pack of canned cherries, A fair-sized pack in British Columbia is 'more than balanced by the small quantity available for canning .in Ontario, The good crop of both raspberries and loganberries assures an average pack of these fruits. Deliveries of apricots to "ca,nn 1's in British Columbia have ^ been only about 30 .pe cent of normal; but can- ning firms ill probably can enough imported ap icote.to .bring the„•pack up to average. -, It is expected there will be a lar- ger than average pack pf carried peaches, despite a decline in the On- tario crop..
