These services include such impor- tant items as X-ray, laboratory and other diagnostic procedures. the iise of operating and case rooms, anaesthetics, necessary nursing services, routine surgical supplies, drugs and physiotherapy. Now.you may ask: "Who is go- ing to pay for all -this?" Well, the answer is: "You. the Canadian taxpayer." -.This hospital insurance plan is not based on any magic formula which promises something for nothing. No, what this plan does is simply to spread the costs of protection over such a large number of people that everyone benefits and no excessive burden is placed on any one individual, As I mentioned earlier. the Fed- eral Government will contribute, out of its general taxrevenues one- half the national shareable costs of the program; the remainder, will be met by the provinces. How this residual amount is raised, of course, is a matter for each prov- ince to decide. In all likelihood, the provinces will make a prem- ium charge or similar levy but, because of the universal nature of the program—and I want to em- phasize this point—these charges are bound to be much more at- tractive than any available alterna- tive. All in all, think it will be found that the Government's hospital in- surance program will provide a more comprehensive coverage— greater benefits over a longer per- iod—than any scheme we have ev- er had in this country. And it will do this at the lowest possible cost to the individual citizen. I have tried this evening to de: scribe briefly some of the out- standing features of your Govern- ment's hospital insurance plan— the latest in a long series of Lib- eral social meaSures.

Mrs. Roy McGonigle and Mrs. Ed,Boyes, who had been delegates to the Huron Presbyterial in Clin- ton, reported interesting facts about the W.M.S. work that had been given by the departmental FARM NEWS Early Spraying of Field Crops Pays Weeds are one of the most im- portant factors responsible for re- duced crop yields in Western Can- ada. 'rests conducted on 50 farms in Manitoba in 1956 showed that weeds reduced the grain yield by 15.9 per cent, The use of herbi- cides could have prevented much of this less. However, to realize maximum benefit from the use of a herbicide timeliness of applica- tion is of first importance. Spraying early in order to get the most effective and econ6mical control of weeds and consequently maximum crop yields has been re- commended in the past few years. It, is of sufficient importance to bear repetition. Weed •competition affects the crop early in its life cycle by reducing the filleting in the young plants. To avoid this loss every effort should be made to control weeds before -the crop reaches the full five -leaf stage. The benefit of early spraying was forcefully illustrated in a trial at the Canada Department of Ag- riculture Experimental Farm, La- combe, in 1956, where oats heavily infested with hemp nettle were treated with M.C.P. at two differ- ent growth stages. The unsprayed plot produced 905 pounds per acre of hemp nettle (dry weight basis), and 53.5 bushels of oats. The plot which was sprayed with M.C.P. at six ounces per acre, when the nettles had 4-6 leaves and the oats had 3-4 leaves, produced 79.5 bush- eds of oats and only 227 pounds (dry weight) of hemp nettle per acre. The same spray treatment applied later, when the nettles had begun to bud and the oats were in early shot blade, failed to re- duce the infestation of the nettles or to increase the yield of oats.
