Decks Cleared At Schools For The Fall Term Grind

Staffs At Grande Prairie High And Montrose Public School Announced Changes This Year.

By the time this issue of The Tribune reaches its readers the decks will be cleared at the various schools for the fall term grind, which began on September 1,

It is expected that pupils enrolled at the Montrose Public School and the Grande Prairie High School will be about the same as last year.

The following is the staff at Montrose: G. P, Freebury, principal and grade 6 teacher; Miss M. Dreyer, grade 5; Miss D. Deakin, grade 4; Miss E. Deby, grade 3; Miss R. Robertson, grade 2; s Mary Robertson, grade 1.

Chdnges in grade organization this year: Grades 7 and 8, previously in public school building, have been moved to new class-rooms at the high school building. This enables grades 7, 8 and 9 to be together, which is desirable because under the new scheme of grade organization they constitute the Intermediate School, or Junior High School.

Staff at Grande Prairie High School: H. T.' Sparby, B.Sc., princi- pal; H. C. Melsness, vice-principal, in charge of the Junior High School section; W. T. M. Fowler; Miss R. Dobson, B.A.; Miss J. Huston; W. Kujath.

Vancouverite Sees Threshing Machine For The First Time

To grow to manhood without see- ing a threshing machine work was the experience of Bert Cochrane of Vancouver, who is on his first trip to the Peace River, representing Northrop & Lyman Drug Company of Toronto,

Mr. Cochrane experienced his big thrill on the farm of Fred Roberts, where he had a close-up on the en- tire operation.

In conversation with The Tribune reporter, Mr. Cochrane observed: “I have seen plenty apples and salmon packed, but this is the first time I have ever seen grain threshed, and I am now just that much wiser.”

The straightness of the roads in the Peace River is another thing that strikes the visitor. He said in British Columbia the roads as a rule are winding and it is a new experi- ence to get into a country where the higowaae are straight for miles,

Mr. Cochrane stated that he was finding the trip most interesting and educational, and besides he repo business here quite satisfactory.

Armed with a of The Tribune’s Monkman Pass Special, Mr. Cochrane promised to go back “to the Coast and do some real mis- sionary work in the interest of the M.P.H.A.

Funeral W. Lucky Dimsdale, Held On Sat. Afternoon

Many Turn Out To Pay Last Respects

~ To A Good Citizen, A Helpful Neighbor, A Kind Husband And Father, And A_ Loyal Friend— Many Beautiful Floral Tributes.

Funeral service for the late W. I. Lucky of Dimsdale was held in St. Paul’s United Church, Grande Prairie, last Saturday afternoon. The service was conducted by Rev. A. Willis Cann, being assisted by Rev. Newman Truax of Wembley. The Misses Rempel of Grande Prairie sang, “Will the Circle Be Unbroken?”

Mr. Cann, in paying tribute to the deceased, said that whilst he had not known him personally, yet he knew of his life as a good citizen, a help- ful neighbor, a kind husband and father, and a loyal friend. ‘We re- member today the helpfulness, the kind neighborliness, the faithful at- |tention to duty, and the contribution |made to the welfare of the com- |!munity in which he lived,” said Mr. Cann,

The late Mr. Lucky came from Minot, North Dakota, to Rio Grande jin 1921, but in 1923 the fa moved to Dimsdale, where they had resided lever since, and here the deceased | became well known and highly respected.

“There was a tragic element in the passing of our friend,” said Mr. Cann “for the end came suddenly. Yet our Master had warned us that we should prepare ourselves for that tragic element when He said, ‘Two shall be in the field; one is taken, and one is left.’ It is at such times that. our sorrow becomes vocal and

The large attendance and _ the numerous floral tributes bore testi- mony to the very high esteem in which Mr. Lucky was held in his

community. The following were the all- bearers: Art Hayes, Hedley ird,

Frank Crummy, Andrew Ross, Tom Waterman and Norman Leslie. Burial took place in the Grande Prairie cemetery.

Damage To Plane Halts Activities At Local Airport

A very unfortunate accident oc- curred at the airfield last Thursday night,—unfortunate so far that it means the finish of flying activities of the pupils at the local flying school with the Fairchild machine ‘owned by Jack Noble of Vancouver.

About 8:30 pupil Dick Bergmann, who had gone solo the _ previous night, went aloft with Pilot Instructor Tom Laurie for a few minutes more dual instruction. While landing and while the control of the machine was with Instructor Laurie (the Edmon- ton papers erroneously attributed the accident to pupil Bergmann), the machine ground-looped, washing away the undercarriage, prop, and part lower wing.

The machine was taken to Edmon- ton early Sunday morning by Bruce Anderson’s truck, where the damage was estimated at $65Q. Jack Nobie accompanied Bruce to Edmonton.

Tom Laurie left by road for Ed- monton on Wednesday, en route for Vancouver, where he hopes to raise another plane and return to finish up the six pupils here.

Has Just Returned From A Three Months’ Visit To His Native Land— Very Little Talk Of War In The Old Country.

Major Ramsay, who spent about six months in Britain, is visiting his son, Pete, of the East End, having arrived on Friday.

The trip to Britain was made via the Panama Canal and was described as. delightful. Returning, Major Ramsay landed at Montreal.

Seen by The Tribune reporter, Major Ramsay stated that the crops in Scotland were splendid. He ex- piained that there was very little wheat grown in Scotland, one of the principal cereals grown being oats. The wheat farmers are bonused and the oat farmers are nut, said the visitor, who went on to say that as a result the oat growers are dis- satisfied and are not backward in saying so.

Major Ramsay observed that he spent three days at the Glasgow Ex- hibition, which was very fine. Un- fortunately his visit was spoiled by constant rain.

Reporter: “Is there much talk of a world war in the Old Country?”

Major Ramsay: “I scarcely ever heard the subject mentioned. There is far more ta of war in Canada

and the United States than in Britain, | where the newspapers do not play |

it up in big headlines as the papers here do.”

Apart from suffering a bit of rheu- matism, Major Ramsay returns from his trip enjoying good health.

HUSBAND WANTS WIFE TO BUY GOODS LOCALLY

Who would have thought of accus- ing me of pessimism when frantically I jerked my brother from his bed as I shouted “Cyclone!”? No! Not pessimism, but the screaming of a fact.

Now apply this to our economic plight. None but the thoughtless or wilfully blind will deny that an economic tempest is rising.

But why is this tempest reserved for our day? Why did it not come in our grandparents or great-grand- parents time? MHasn’t this economic system been in vogue for genera- tions? Why is this the fateful hour?

There has always been dispari arising out of injustices, but the many forces of nature which are constantly at work to unify things kept conditions within tolerable limits till the present time: and again, why will they not now?

This is why: For thousands of years sand, gravel and dirt were handled by men with shovels; now one man with levers does the work of many scores of men. Machinery! Profits therefrom benefit the few, and the displaced workers, none caring, face privation and suffering.

Since the invention of the balloon in 1782-1783 practically all inven- tions have been made—all in a mo- ment as compared to the history of man

Blessings they are; but many of them serve to fatten the purses of a few, while bringing want to an host.

Mark this! Machine - earning - wealth is not possible except it pre- cludes or supersedes man-earning- wealth. Equity and justice cannot exist where there is individual ac- cumulatton of machine - earning - wealth, whereby man-earnings are curtailed.

Let’s put it bluntly and wake us up: Those who receive machine- earning-wealth to the preclusion of man - earning - wealth are CRIMIN- ALS (unwitting of course), for they rob others by forcefully taking from them their inalienable heritage—the right of labor and its reward.

This robbery is not so far re- moved in_ results from highway robbery. In one case a machine called a pistol is used and you are relieved of your purse: in the other a labor-saving machine is used and you are relieved of your livelihood. The difference is: one is by violence. or threat of violence; and the other by subtility.

What is the remedy? — discard machinery? Not at all! If one is robbed at the point of a pistol, the just thing to do is to return what is robbed to the rightful owner.

So there is the solution: The only just thing to do is to return to the community the machine - earning - wealth whose members the machine had robbed of jobs and their re- wards.

But, “I invented the machine,” or “I bought the machine and have a right to the profits it makes.” are weak arguments The rights to the earnings of an invention or of a pur- chased machine cannot possibly supersede a man’s right with birth— his right to do his share of labor and receive his share of production: Cer- tainly to deprive him of these is robbing him.

And added to the ever-increasing inventions which displace laboring- men in growing numbers is the acceleration of another major evil— interest. A fearful state have we reached, now that virtually half of our taxes go for interest. For every dollar I pay in taxes to the ‘support of my country I have approximately another dollar taken from me under the guise of taxes and paid to her favored citizens without their giving the equivalent in service or produc- tion, — something for nothing as verily as in the case of direct relief.

THE K.NG OF ISRAEL ? By MARGARET PROWD

We have heard quoted to us and also read the covenant God made with Abraham. Let us now read what God said about (0) years, B.C. Jeremiah, chap. 31, verse 31. “Behold the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the House .f Israel and with the House of Ju: in.” (They are separate and distinct),

Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them up out of the land of Egypt, which my covenant they (not God)

broke, although I was an husband un- |

to them, saith the Lord.

But this shall be the covenant that!

I will make with the house of Israel. After these days, saith the Lord, 1 will put my law in their inward parts and write it in their hearts and will be

their God and they shall be my people |

(ver. 35) Thus saith the Lerd, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the moon and the stars for a light by | night, which divideth the sea, where. the waves thereof roar, the Lord ot) Hosts is his name. If those ordin-| ances depart from before me, saith the | Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me forever. Thus saith the Lord, if the

heaven above can be measured and the!

foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for 2ll that done,

they get lifted up with their brethern, Israel. They are to be a “people” scattered among all nations, and what nation receives them as one of them- selves, but their brethern Israel or as she is known today, England or the British, “the covenant man” as the name “British” means.

Why have they not been known all along as Israel? God said he was to He told them to retire to a quiet place and hide themselves, until the indignation be over past and they were strengthened.

Jeremiah 33-17. “For thus saith the Lord, David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel. 20th ver.: Thus saith the Lord —if ye can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night. and that there should not be day and night in their season. Then may also my covenamt be broken with David, my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne, and with the Levites, the priests my ministers

As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David. my servant. Considerest thou not what this people have spoken

and saying The two families which the Lord hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? Thus they have dis pised my people, saying. that they should no more be a nation before me

Now, if Mr. La Riviere thinks the Lord fought on the side of the heathen nation, let him read the 0th chap. of Jeremiah. In the 1S-verse. it says: Therefore, thus saith the Lord, I will punish the King of Babylon and his land as I have punished the King of Assyria.

Yes and although he may allow the heathen nations to punish Israel for her sins today, yet in the end He will punish those nations again

Now what is the reason of Israel being a peculiar people? Is.

This people have I formed for

they shall shew forth my praise, chap.

44. ver. 1 Yet now hear, and Jacob my servant and Israel whom I have chosen. ver. 21; for I have formed thee, thou art my servant: O Israel

thou shalt not be forgotten of me.

In he 10th chap. of Israel we get the reason why God punishes any nation that goes up against israel Verse 12, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the King of Assyria and the glory of his high looks, for he saith. by the strength of my hand have I done it and by my wisdom, for I am prudent.

It it was not for that last quotation it would seem unreasonable for God to use a nation to punish Israel and then punish that nation; but God is never unreasonable; He punishes because they do not give him the glory. Now. to give all the proofs of Britain being Israel would take books, not space on @ page of our much valued paper. but I hope I have stimulated at least one to search out those proofs for them- selves. We have got to realize our hign ealling and live according to the cove- nant for our punishment is coming

very shortly and I am afraid very heavily. What is it going to matter to us

that we have got some riches by fraua if we are going to lose it all in a few years? What good is meanners and sharp dealing going to do us if we are to be judgéd by them? We are Israel, called by God to be a “peculiar” peo- ple. Let us show forth his praise. Let us show that we can do the straight forward and principled thing even though it looks as if it is going to cause us a slight loss. It won't really. it may only look like it to try us, but the choice of the right way will build us a stronger character, It

Indoors ... Outdoors... Wash- day ... Birthday ... family history is being made.

OT long ago a young friend of

mine married. He is a camera fan, like the rest of us, and he told me:

“My family history is going to be kept in pictures. I plan to take at least one roll of pictures a week— many more whenever possible. Whenever we do enything—move to a new house—go on a week-end trip —plant flowers—celebrate a birth- day or an anniversary—add a new member—whatever it is, the story will be told in pictures.”

His plans go further than that, too. His picture record is to be kept in handy, useful form. “There will be a new picture book for every year,” he told me. “I plan to have the best shots enlarged, and mount the others contact size. Everything goes into the book, where we'll al- ways be able to find it and recall— from our own snapshots—what we did in past days.”

There, now, is an idea for all of

C.C.F. Provincial Platform

By 1. V. Macklin

7. DEBT “We unhesitatingly subscribe to the principle that human life and all the requirements of human life shall take precedence over debt rights under a C.C.F. government.”

(a) “Debt must be reduced to that point where it can be paid from the income of the debtor within a rea- sonable time without prejudice to an adequate standard of living.”

(b) “Legislation will be to provide that the creditor shall take) the same risk on his capital earnings! as the farmer takes on his crop or| the worker on his employment.”

(c) “Exemptions will be provided | for farmers and workers sufficient |! to maintain living standards. No debts to be legally collected until the amount of the exemption has been | received.”

A few were

which were punishable by death. A debtor also who could not pay was put into a debtors’ prison. When money consisted of hard metal whose volume could not be manipulated there was some measure of justice in punishment for non-payment. But since money has become paper and figures on books, and its manipula- tion the most colossal “racket” of modern times, punishment for failure to do the impossible becomes ab-

There are various circumstances | which have operated to make e debt situation in western to some extent hopeless. One is in- flation and deflation. It is difficult to pay war debts on $2.50 wheat levels with wheat on a 50-cent level. Then we must remember that the cost of production is not reduced to one-fifth of what it was during

the war, a in the costs of machinery, which are higher than. they were at that time. Another |

the British Navy began using oil for fuel, and the British industry elec- tricity for power.

The war-time Minister of Finance, Sir Thomas White, said that the Canadian war debt, if ever paid, would be paid “out of the top six inches of Canadian soil. Since that time the fertility of that soil has been depleted, some has become weed-| infested, and much has suffered drouth and blown away. Instead of Canadian debt having been paid! since the war, it grows and grows. |

and industry should pay for the war.) Agriculture should be forever bled white by finance and industry, and | in addition pay for the war also. Well the rulers of Canada will have to “think again.” Or if it is hard “to teach an old dog new tricks,” the Canadian people may find it neces- sary to select national leaders who have a new program for national rehabilitation.

In the meantime, while the national recovery is a federal problem, it is the duty of the provinces to protect the lives of their citizens against dis- asters, due to national causes and the altered plans of other nations, and against unbearable conditions which our past rulers have planned for or allowed to develop and which hither- to they have made little effort to cure.

The upshot of the C.C.F. provincial platform with res to debt is that the debtor shall not be subjected to starvation because he is unable to meet his obligations. The situation is rather acute in the drought area, where there has been failure for as much as seven years. Now that there is an abundant crop this year, will the total proceeds be taken as a drop in the bucket of creditors’ de- mands or will the debtor be allowed (if there is anything left after imme- diate costs are paid) to buy a few badly needed goods for personal use?

These are problems which western provincial governments must face. It is said that Canadian trade laws force Canadians to pay in many

for their necessities in Canada as they would have to pay on the world markets. One article alone which farmers sell is placed a wee little bit above world prices.

The western Canadian farmer is placed in an impossible position with respect to his debt, largely by laws which the past rulers of Canada have made. Before they punish the west- ern farmer for debt, let them make) it possible for him to pay it. It | cannot be paid if wheat costs $1.03 per bushel to produce and must be sold for 80 cents. Before the lash is | applied to the horse, see that the load is not beyond his power to pull. The provinces can stay the lash, but a solution of the debt problem of Canada will require some mighty fundamental changes which are not at all likely to be accomp/ished under the old order of things.

DESCRIPTION OF CANADA *" YEAR BOOK FOR 19328

The publication of the 1988 edition of the Canada Year, Book, published by authorization of the Hon. W. D. Euler, Minister of Trade and Com- merce, is announced by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The Canada Year Book is the official statistical annual of the country and contains a thoroughly up-to-date account of the natural resources ‘of the Dominion and their development, the history of the country, its institutions, its demogra- phy, the different branches of produc- tion, trade, transportation, finance, education. etc.—in brief, a comprehen- sive study within the limits of a single volume of the social and economic condition of the Dominion. This new edition has been thoroughly revised throughout and includes in all its chapters the latest information avail- able up to the date of going to press.

The 1988 Canada Year Book ex- tends to almost 1,200 pages, dealing with all phases of the national life more especially with those sus- ceptible of statistical measurement. A

| Statistical summary of the progress of

Canada is included in the introductory matter. This gives a picture in fig- ures of the remarkable progress which the country has made since the first census of the Dominion was taken in 1871, sixty-seven years ago.

Attention may be called to some of the more important features of the present volume.

In Chapter 1, which treats of Phy- siography, a_ revised article on the Geology of Canada appears at pp. 16- 27: Part II—Seismology—last pub- lished in the year 1931 Year Book is brought up to date this year; and a special article, “The Flora of Canada” prepared by John Adams, M.A. (Can- tab). Division of Botany, Experimen- tal Farm, Ottawa, appears at pp. 30- 59 as Part IV. In Part VII, which deals with Climate and Meteorology, a new section and tables on Times of Sunrise and Sunset in Canada are also given.

At pp. 78-90, an additional Part on Historic Sites and Monuments in Can- ada is added to Chapter II. A section on the Government of Canada’s Arctic Territory has been added to Chapter III at pp. 92-93, and at pp. 110-119 the provincia! legislatures from 1924 to the present are tabulated, tying-in with the series from Confederation to 1923 published in the 1924 Year Book.

A special feature of Chapter VIII— Agriculture—this year is the article appearing at pp. 223-230 dealing with the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Pro- gram inaugurated by the Dominion Government to alleviate the condi- tions brought about by the incidence of the recent agricultural crisis in the West, and to provide for permanent improvements in areas suffering from drought and soil drifting.

All the space that could be spared in Chapter XIX —Labor and Wages— has been given to a summary review of Labor Legislation in Canada. which appears at pp. 787-796, and to an ex- tended treatment of Mothers’ Allow- ances by individual provinces.

In addition to the special features mentioned, sume progress has been made in filling in the new framework of Chapter XVIII—Transportation and Communications—as it was recast last year, but unfortunately certain of the

“DOUBLE WEDDING” BRINGS POWELL AND MYRNA LOY TO CAPITOL SCREEN IN GAY FILM

With William Powelt and Myrna Loy back in the farcical type of roles which have made them famous as the most amusing co-starring team on the screen, “Double Wedding” will be at the Capitol Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday, September 8, 9 and 10, with the advance reputa- tion of being the dizziest, daffiest and drollest comedy hit to be shown in this vicinity in some time.

bbe is ie setup: Powell is ta penniless, appy - go - luc artist, making his home in a trelles and refusing to take life or an else seriously. Miss Loy is Margit, owner of a fashionable New York dress shop, a woman too busy to have time for love or any other foolishness. Florence Rice is her ounger sister, Irene, with suppressed desires to be a fnov'e no ay Beal is Waldo, whom Miss y has chosen marry her sister. hey

When Irene meets the fascinating artist she doesn’t want to marry Waldo any more. When the artist meets Margit he doesn’t want to bother with Irene any more. Poor Margit and Waldo conspire tu straighten things out, but before the uproarious climax of the story is reached everything is more com- plicated than ever. It is all pure un- adulterated farce. .

The comedy is enriched by the smartest New York interiors that the Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer designers have ever constructed for a picture, and the women will rave over the stunning new gowns designed for Miss Loy and Miss Rice by Adrian.

Richard Thorpe, who directed the Robert Montgomery _ thriller hit, “Night Must Fall,” now shows his flair for comedy in directing the cur- rent laugh-maker.

The season of 1937 improved the case. It is desired to carry the investigation on at least two years longer. Pos- siby the present dry season will still further improve the showing for northern wheats unless hard frost occurs before cutting is completed.

More samples are required for the study. In the front of the bulletin is a blank form to be filled out and sent in by any northern farmer will- ing to send in a one-pound sample of his 1938 wheat crop. It is im- portant that the samples used be widely representative, hence from many offerings a judicious selection will be taken for milling.

Though I am not authorized to say so, I feel quite sure that Dr. Neatby and Dr. McCalla would appreciate the offer of samples from the British Columbia portion of the Peace.

In conclusion, friends, may I urge you to write at once offering a one- pound sample of your wheat. If you have the bulletin at hand, use the form it contains. If not, write for the bulletin and in doing so offer the wheat. Address Department of Field | Crops, University of Alberta.

In the interests of cooperation and on behalf of the University, I thank you.

Quality of wheat for bread-making purposes depends largely upon high protein content, say 12 per cent and upwards. Along with the percentage of protein the character of the pro- tein is to be considered, and there are minor factors involved, but pro- tein percentage is the best single measure of quality in our hard red spring wheat.

The three factors tending to pro- duce high quality in western Cana- dian wheat are variety, soil and climate (or season).

Some varieties are better than others and certain ones that are satisfactory when grown under one set of conditions do not compare so favorably when produced elsewhere. For instance, on the lower plains Marquis and Reward are both ex- c..lent wheats, but when they are g-own in the North Reward usually has the edge, possibly because being earlier it generally matures under more favorable weather conditions.

Other things equal, the grey soils of the wooded belt produce poorer wheat than the black or brown soils, and, generally speaking, the cool, moist maturing season common m the North conduces to plump filling rather than to high protein per- centage. Our wheat really ranks better from an exhibition standpoint than from a miller’s point of view.

Much, however, depends upon the season. In the dry summer of 1925 the Beaverlodge Substation grew

The Importance of Price

To the wheat producer the price of his product is a matter of first importance. ‘

That is why the Alberta Wheat Pool fights so strenuously for price protection. Single-handed amidst the trade, it has striven to place the wheat price question in its proper light before all Canada. .

In such a campaign it needs support and encouragement from the farm population.

This can best be done by delivering grain to

OMES the time every year when many of us make for the lake or seashore for cool breezes, swim- ming, sailing, motorboating, fish- ing, and the many other pleasures that go with a sojourn by the water.

Any one can enjoy this fun with- out a camera, but verily to go and return without having made a pic- ture-story of your visit seems as useless as trying to write a book about it with water for ink. When you have finished, your memory may retain some of it for a time, but eventually you remember little else than the fact that you went there. Years later you will say, “Yes, I had a good time that summer,” but what did you do, whom were you with, what did you see? Bet a mil- lion that with nothing in your snap- shot album to show for it, you will remember scarcely anything of the details of that good time, and re- gretfully wish you could.

Another reason for taking your camera to the lake or seashore is

that where water is, with its bright reflections, you have exceptional chances for making fine pictures. Usually by the lake or seashore, even on cloudy days you have more light to work with than inland. The extra light gives you opportunity to “stop down” (use a smaller lens op- ening) and thereby obtain sharp, clear-cut details.

Also there is no better place for interesting action pictures than a summer resort. Except for the beach itself and the hotels, cottages and wharves, everything seems to be in motion. Of course, if you want close-ups of fast action you should be equipped with a fast camera, but don’t forget that splendid work with many water scenes is done with an inexpensive fixed focus camera. If it is rapid motion such as an ap- proaching motorboat, shoot from an angle at a distance of 75 to 100 feet and usually you get it without blur. Then have an enlargement made when you get home.

Saskatoon Mt. Parks

(Radio talk by W. D. Albright, Chairman of al Advisory Committee, over CFGP, August 24, 1938.)

Through the courtesy of CFGP, which has placed its services at my disposal for a little while, may I say a few words on another subject? On behalf of the Local, Advisory Com- mittee having to do with Saskatoon Island and Saskatoon Mountain parks I wish to express our appre- ciation of the extent to which the Island has been used this summer and the extent to which the Moun- tain is beginning to be used, now that it has been made more regularly accessible from the southwest.

The history of these two public park areas may be told at another time. Suffice for the present to ex- plain that in 1935 Hon. H. W. Allen, then provincial Minister of Lands and’ Mines, asked me to act as chair- man of a local advisory committee to be consulted from time to time by the provincial Parks Board regard- ing Saskatoon and the then proposed Saskatoon Mountain parks. Ap- pointed with me were two other members—Mr. J. Archer of Wem- bley, who had taken an active part in having Saskatoon Island reserved and who had also seconded the mo- tion I made at Beaverlodge in 1929 to have the Mountain reserved for park purposes, and Mr. S. B. Allsop, who lives near the island and has since taken a great personal interest in its development. It may be in order to mention that the members of the committee serve for honor and pay their own travelling expenses.

Facilities on the Island

Appropriations of public money for development have been necessarily scant during these hard times, but two caretakers have been sree at a merely nominal remuneration, vi., Mr. Justyn Rigby, for the Island, and Mr. Walter Bowen, for the Mountain. Their major duties are to watch for fires and to guard against depredations. Both have been atten- tive and Mr. Rigby has done a great deal in other ways, assisted by local residents, among whom the annually appointed picnic committee of the Old Timers’ Association deserve special mention. Through such co- operative effort the parking spaces and ball grounds on the Island have from time to time been cleared and widened, while the limited appro-

ciation available has been used to nstall a sheltered camp stove, dress- ing rooms for bathers, toilets, benches, camp tables and si and finally a cabin for rent to holidayers.

By special arrangement the United Church has been granted the privi- lege of erecting a yw for boys’ and girls’ camp work, and to this was added this year cabins for the use of their Youth camps. The pavilion has been taxed to sapecsty, and the Lutheran League has app ied for like privileges. Such privileges are

‘an only until such time as the

arks Board may be able itself to

rovide all needed facilities, at which ime the concessionaires may have the Roviege of disposing of their buildings to the Parks Board or moving them away. Preliminary to the granting of any more concessions a survey of the Island has been a oe gnificent rise

Saskatoon Mountain is different. Lacking open water, it may never become to the same extent as the, Island a local playground, but as an | appeal to tourists and as an inspiring | spot to visit it stands in a class by itself. It affords the nearest thing to an aeroplane view that I have ever) seen from the ground. Prof. Charles | Colby of the University of Chicago, | who brought an advanced geography class to the nounced the view from that hilltop | the finest combination of rural land- ' scape and mountain setting that he | had ever seen. More guod land can be seen from that hilltop than the whole of Prince Edward Island com- prises. I used to think when hear- ing of the great view from Saskatoon Mountain that it was probably exag- gerated. I found it far better than I expected, and dozens of prominent public men have expressed them- selves likewise. I have been on it scores of times, and never withotft a thrill of exaltation. I even described it one time in verse, under the title, “A February Morning on Grande Prairie.’”’ The verse about the Moun- tain runs this way:

Nearby and friendly in the ambient haze Bold Saskatoon uprears his

The feature of the landscape from whose prow

will thank us for our foresight. The immediate objective, however, is an easy trail up from the southeast, skirting the southern brow of the hilltop and connecting with the rather steep crooked track which descends the southwest slope. Part of the proposed trail was surveyed and brushed out years ago as a relief project but it is growing up again and needs further attention. Part of it is to be cut out of virgin bush. This year’s appropriation for the Mountain has been largely used up in providing an 18 by 30 pavilion in the form of an open-front shelter for picnickers who may ie caught by rain when on the hill, as @ crowd was last summer when I was up there. So, if the southeast access trail is to be cut out this year it will have to be by volunteer labor. In 1937 a very nice bit of volunteer work was done in helping to clear and grub a bo stretch on the highway approaching the hill from the Bertram corner, after which Guy Gault, for the provincial De ent of Public Works, did an excellent job of grading. I wonder whether a

The road two miles east at the Halli- day corner is rougher and not always passable for cars. Both connect with the highway that runs east and con- nects with the angling trail leading up the slope. Signs indicate the way and it is easy to follow, when it is not too muddy.

May I conclude by expressing the pleasure of the committee at the active support of Mr. W. Sharpe, M:L.A.; Mr. J. A. Aiken, secretary, provincial Parks Board; Mr. A. H. McQuarrie, and many others.

The parks are ours to enjoy.

BANK OF MONTREAL CROP REPORT, No. 11

MONTREAL, Aug. 25. — Bank of Montreal crop report, No. 11, issued today, is as follows:

General

In the Prairie Provinces fairly general rains have caused further delay in harvesting operations, al- though cutting is well advanced over most of Saskatchewan and southern Alberta and threshing has become general in Manitoba. A _ period of warm, dry weather is now required, particularly in Alberta, to facilitate the harvesting of the crops.

In Manitoba wheat yields will be fairly satisfactory and early market- ings of rust- resistant wheat are grad- ing well.

In Saskatchewan crops show a wide variation and yields and grades have been generally lowered as a result of rust and drought.

In Alberta crops generally tinue promising.

In the province of Quebec harvest- ing operations have been hampered to some extent by heavy rains, but

con-

crops continue to give promise of |

abundant yields. In Ontario there are heavy crops

of the main staples and good pro-'|

gress is being made in harvesting. In the Maritime Provinces the crops have been showing satisfac-

tory growth, but in some districts excessive moisture has damaged potatoes and grain.

In British Columbia occasional

showers at the coast and heavy rains in the interior came too late to bene- fit grain and hay, and yields of these

will be below average, but roots generally and tree fruits are doing well, Alberta Intermittent rains and lower tem-

peratures during the past week have generally delayed harvesting and re- tarded ripening of late grains. Slight red rust damage is reported in the northeast and_ east-central areas.

Manitoba Threshing is well under way in most districts, although operations have been delayed by = scattered

showers. Rust has reduced yields and grades of coarse grains, and non- resistant varieties of wheat, but owing to the high percentage of rust- resistant wheat sown this year out- turns on the whole will be fairly satisfactory. Pastures are in good condition,

next morning insisted on Alex Dal- gleish taking his picture while he leaned against the bridge. The party arrived at the end of the trail about noon, which is about five miles on this side of the Murray River. A sign stated “This way to. ‘Kinuseo Falls. Approximately 4 Miles.” “Tarzan Boulevard.” Packs were scon arranged and supplies set out for a day at the Falls. :

As Hector Morrison swung into the lead I gazed at him in wonderment and thought of what a wonderful lead horse he would have made. It is my opinion that if Tarzan had ever seen this trail to the Falls that is called after him ‘he would have backed away from it, and marfy times during the endurance test the party sat down to take a short rest and wonder how those Grande Prairie ladies ever made the grade. Grande Prairie certainly has some _ very sturdy women. When you arrive at the Falls it is almost straight up and down to the bottom. Here Norman Swallow arrived at the bottom with a tear in his pants and was accused of doing the coon act. Alex. Dal- gleish did a lot of trapeze balancing but never lost his Chevrolet smile. Geo. Pratt acted as

to catch the bottom of your car if not careful. One should take a car with lots of clearance, and even at that nine-tenths of the way calls for low and intermediate gear. The Murray River is about two-thirds the size of the Smoky and the Falls is 210 feet high, It reminds one of the Ameri- can Niagara Falls, but is much higher, as the Niagara Falls is only 167 feet high.

The Monkman Pass Committee de- serve a mighty lot of credit for the work they have accomplished. I question the fact that had the present amount of work been done by any government it would have cost at least One Hundred Thousand Dollars, and it has all been done by public subscription and volunteer labor. In conclusion, the fishing is fair, the scenery magnificent, and the roads rough.

If Vancouver and other coast cities as well as the towns and cities along the Cariboo Highway could realize what the opening of this highway really meant to them they would wake up and get busy with a helping hand, but like a lot of the rest of Canada in catering to the tourist trade, they are not only asleep to its

“man about) possibilities but snoring out loud.

KINUSEO FALLS

NEW YORK DOCTOR SAYS HONEY MOST VALUABLE FOOD Honey is “Nature’s own sweet, un-

touched. by human art,” according to

Dr. Bodog Beck, writing in his book,

“Honey and Health.”

“Honey and other simple and na- tural sugars, like that in dates, figs, raisins, etc, are live physiologica sugars which contain the germs of life, while industrial sugars are anti- physiological, dead, or, as a matter of fact, murdered sweets,’’ he writes.

Pursuing this line of thought, Dr. Beck deems honey in hot water bet- ter than alcohol as a quick pickup; he says that the ancient Greek ath-

The old church of my _ boyhood memories is surrounded by an old burying-ground and many of the tombstones are hundreds of years old. On some of them are -quaint epitaphs, but I have forgotten the wording. Enclosing both church and burying-ground is a low stone wall with iron fence on top. The town’s market square adjoins this wall on one side and on Saturday, market day, the square, which is quite large, is filled with stalls and is a very busy place. In its centre is an

obelisk, about 12 feet high, though |

to me in boyhood it seemed as high as Cleopatra’s Needle does now. Facing the market square on three sides are many stores and three public-houses. The churchyard has two main gates. In front of one gate is the “Church Arnis”; in front of the other “The Boar’s Head.” As both church gates and taverns were built long before my time, I know not whether their location was by accident or design.

Much of the foregoing was inspired by listening to “The Romance of Sacred Song,”’ a CBC feature’ heard over CJCA Sunday mornings at 11 o’clock, I wonder if there is a romance attached to “Now the Day Is Over’’? If so, will CBC dramatize it some day?

As I write this, it is again Sunday evening, and the days is almost over, but the scene before me now is| a totally different one to that of boy- hood days in a far-off land. There is | no old ivy-covered church, no town! with .old-fashioned stores, no old farm-houses; nor an old lovers’ lane. Everything here made by human hands is comparatively new—town, roads, farm-houses, and _ churches. As I rambled this afternoon down one side of the creek and back home on the other no imagined calls to Sunday school rang out. A breeze rustled the ripened grain and there was buzz of insect and flight of bird. Everything else was silent. There was no drone of aeroplane and it is yet too early in the year for flights of ducks and geese.

I wonder what the children here will remember when they are old. There is much—-very much, Perhaps there is so much that none of it will be outstanding; that the variety is too great to permit of deep impres- sion. But I do not think so. It is a privilege of human nature to be able to pick and choose. I hear some of my generation pitying today’s youth, That is foolish. The children of to- day are to be envied. In the next three score years and ten they will have opportunity to live a much fuller life than we of my generation | have lived—and we haven’t done so! badly.

Tonight I listened, as I also did last Sunday night, to “Ports of Call,” a CJCA presentation at 7:30 sponsored | by Alberta Wheat Pool, This is a very interesting and instructive fea- ture, chockful of entertainment, but! nevertheless carrying a lesson in both | geography and _ history. Anybody | listening to good radio programs these days can get a broad education and not know they are getting it. Unfortunately reception of this pro- gram was marred by an electrical storm seen south and west. “Ports of Call” is also broadcast over CFGP, at 1:30 p.m. Sunday—a poor time, especially ‘in summer, it seems to me, for such a good feature. It is elec- trically transcribed.

Following the Wheat Pool broad- cast I switched to the 25-meter band and caught Paris-Mondiale, the big French government short-wave sta- tion at Paris. coming in quite fair, but with an awfully slow announcer giving news of the day. KDKA’s short-wave station in the same band also was on the air, and clear, giv- ing United States front-page news stories.

In this band, too, is BBC’s short- wave station, Daventry, and at 8:30 a slight twist of the dial brought in the half-hour chime of Big Ben. (Not the alarm clock one so well- known on this continent.

THE NEW CANADIAN CHAMPION AND THE DETHRONED STAR One of the most amazing golf championships ever played in Canada was witnessed by thousands at Toronto when Sam Snead, West Virginia power- hitter, defeated Harry Cooper to win the Canadian Open Golf Championship. Snead and Cooper were tied going into the final round and when the day was over they were still even. At the end of a special round of 18 holes the sharpshooters were stiil

tied and it took another nine holes to settle the championship in Snead’s

favor. Above (left) is

FORMER GRANDE PRAIRIE GIRL WED AT COAST CiTY

A quiet but pretty wedding was solemnized at 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon in St. Peter’s Church rec- tory, Nanaimo, when the Rev. Father Lewis McLellan united in holy matrimony Miss Bessie Loretta Clark and Dr. Anthony Verchere, both of Port Alberni.

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Burton Clark of Ontario, and the groom is the son of Mrs. Arthur Verchere, Vancouver, and the late Arthur Verchere, Lady- smith. The groom is a dentist of the West Coast city and the bride is a former member of the staff of the West Coast Hospital, Port Alberni.

Attending the couple were Miss Beatrice Lillian Clark, Port Alberni, sister of the bride, and Mr. S. W. Good, Duncan.

The happy couple left on the eve- ning boat for Vancouver for a honey- moon trip to the mainland, On their return they will reside at Port Alberni.—Ladysmith Chronicle.

Miss Clark was employed in the office of the Municipal District of Bear Lake and both Miss Clark and her sister Beatrice are well known in Grande Prairie. .

origin of man, the divine ience which ushered Jesus into human presence, will be understood and demonstrated" (p, 325).

Fall rye production in Canada in 1938 is estimated to amount to 9,516,000 bushels from 553,500 acres, compared with the 1937 production of 4,579,000 bushels from 700,300 acres, or a yield of 17.2 bushels per acre in 1938 and 6.5 bushels per acre in 1937,

BACON EXPORTS TO U. K.

For the first time in several years |

arrivals of bacon from Canada to the British market showed a decline dur-

ing the first six months of 1938. In|

the corresponding months of 1937 the quantity imported from Canada was 769,810 cwts.; in 1938, the total was 700,953 cwts. This decline coincided with a slight fall in the total British imports of bacon, which at the end of June from all sources amounted to 3,430,871 cwts. The trade is regu- lated in so far as foreign countries are concerned, so that there is little latitude for variation in sources of supply. Canadian hams_ imported into Britain for the first six months of 1938 totalled 123,967 cwts., or 25 per cent less than in the correspond- ing 1937 period. exports to the British market rose 28 per cent compared with the 1937 six months.

WHEAT IN JAPAN

The Japanese Department of Agri- culture on July 1 estimated the 1938 wheat crop of Japan at 49,910,254 bushels, an increase of 0.5 per cent over the 1937 crop and an increase of 9 per cent over the last five-year average.

WILL TAKE SOME PLANNING

“In another twenty or thirty years more,” says Frank Morrison, secre- tary of the American Federation of Labor, “I anticipate an average 21- hour working week for all labor and

ra substantial increase in all wages.”

And then future generations can look forward to a workless week with still higher wages.

The first cutting of alfalfa in Canada in 1938 yielded 1,427,000 tons from 832,200 acres, compared with 1,572,000 tons in 1937 from 848,900

acres, or a yield of 1.71 tons per acre.

in 1938 and 1.85 tons per acre in 1937.

| CANNING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES There is nothing more satisfying to |a housewife than a pantry shelf well | stocked with home-canned fruit and vegetables, states Miss Edith L. | Elliott in the revised edition of the publication, “Canning Fruits and Vegetables,’ No. 534, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, now avail- able on request to the Publicity and Extension Division. If food products are left in their j natural state most of them spoil in a

jfew days—-some in a few hours

owing to the growth of bacteria, mould, or yeasts on their surface or in their tissues, the author of the

bulletin explains. If such organisms can be destroyed and the entrance of other organisms prevented, the food ;can be kept in good condition in- definitely. Sufficient heat for a sufficient length of time will destroy any form of life.

Successful canning, therefore, de- pends on destroying alk microscopic life and using airtight containers | which present re-infection. The aim in canning fruit and vegetables is to {assure this result while preserving natural shape, color and fresh flavor. Safe canning depends on strict atten- tion to every step in the process. Vegetables and fruit should be canned fresh. The fresher they are, the better will be the finished prod- uct and the smaller the chance of failure. For best results fruits and vegetables should be canned the day they are gathered.

No equipment for home canning is needed other than that found in the ordinary kitchen sharp knives, preferably _ stainless, a colander, bowls, measuring cups, enamel Die |plates, wooden spoons, a wide- mouthed funnel for filling jars, and a jJar lifter to save burned fingers in lifting jars from the sterilizer. | Full information of every phase of canning is given in the publication— methods of cooking, jar rubbers, jars, sterilizing, processing, time tables for canning the various fruits and vege- tables, and other necessary facts.

CIGARETTE BEETLE

Although called the cigarette beetle }owing to its preference for tobacco and its destruction of the manufac- tured cigarette, the beetle feeds on |many other substances, such as seeds, | dried drugs, yeast cakes, and vege- jtable material used in upholstered |furniture, Scientists now report that | this destructive pest can be controlled |by relatively short exposures to low | temperature. At 36 degrees F., a |16-day expusuie Killed all stages of | the beetle, and at 25 degrees a seven- ;day exposure produced complete | mortality.

England and Wales have 5,600,000 female workers, according to records.

HOW TO REDUCE COSTS FARM CROP PRODUCTION

Prices of farm produce are being more and more controlled by world demand, with keen competition tend- ing towards lower prices, so that it is | more necessary than ever to reduce every factor in the cost of producing farm crops to the lowest possible point, states H. D. Mitchell, Field Husbandry Division, Central Experi- j}mental Farm, Ottawa. | Among the most effective means of

j}attuining this end are: (1) Production of heavier yields per acre through the use of the best quality seed of the varieties best suited to the locality, thorough cultivation and drainage, suitable rotations, and continuous control of weeds, insects, and plant diseases, Increased yields mean a reduced cost per bushel or ton of crop with only a slight increase in the cost of production per acre. (2) the use of modern, labor-saving farm

equipment results in lower costs be- cause of the saving in manual and |} horse labor It also means the per- formance of more work per day, and jat the proper time. (3) Increased size of farm or land area cultivated jis another important means. Within certain limits, the overhead in build-

ings and equipment does not vary greatly on averaged sized farms, | Therefore, an increase in the cul-

tivated acreage to the capacity of the existing farm organization will re- sult in a reduced cost of production per acre,

The farming system adopted should include only those crops which con- flict the least with each other in labor requirements, yet should .be sufficiently diversified to utifize economically all the manual and horse labor on the farm.

BARLEY AND OATS TO U. K.

Canada supplied 2,155,315 cwts. of barley to the United Kingdom during the first six months of 1938, com- pared with 63,460 cwts. in the corre- sponding period of 1937. There was also an increase in the exports of Canadian oats, which are predom- inant in the United Kingdom imports. In the six months Canada _ sent $45,553 cwts. out of a total of 627,515 imported into Britain. In rolled oats Canada is practically the only sup-

lier, the Canadian exports rising by Bo per cent to 214,149 cwts.

A record attendance was on hand at Richmond Hill golf course on Sun- day last. Over sixty cars were parked near the club-house during the afternoon. The weather was ideal for golf, with just enough wind to keep golfers cool.

The Men’s Club Championship Tournament games were run off to the final of the championship flight, and the other flights played to the semi-finals and finals.

The game between C. G. Butchart and Larry Cobb to see who would play off in the finals of the Men’s Club Championship proved to be a battle to the finish. The match was all square coming home. Cobb sank a five-foot putt for a par, and Butchart missed a three-footer to tie, giving Cobb the match.

Cobb was off his game in the first five holes, Butchart winning, 1, 3, 4 and 5, halving the second with fives. Cobb won the 7th and 9th, halving the 8th, making Butchart 2 up at the end of the 9th.

In the second round Butchart only won one hole, the 3rd, Cobb taking

2, 5, 7 and 9. The cards: First Round Cobb 654 565 455—45 Butchart 553 455 656—44 Second Round Cobb 544 444 545—39 Butchart

The match between Len Duffield and Harry Archibald in the fours ended in a win for Duffield, 4 and 3. Duffield turned in a 39 in the first

nine holes.

In the final brackets of the first flight are S. Smith and R. Roddick. Second flight finalists are T. New- ton and B. Emerson. Third flight is still playing to the fours. * A. E. Galway and E. Gammon, in the second flight of the Men's Club Championship, had a long-drawn-out battle, going to the 22nd hole before a decision was made, the latter win-

ning by a stroke at the fourth green. . * .

There was a very poor showing in the Ladies’ Club Tournament for the Herman Trelle Cup, only half of the draw being played off.

The following are the results of matches played: Mrs. W. R. Roberts won from Mrs. R. H. Watcher; Mrs. J. Donaldson won from Mrs. Frank Donald; Mrs. Borwick won from Mrs. H. Trelle; Mrs. H. Archibald won from Mrs. P. Powers; Mrs. G. Neil- son won-from Mrs. W. Edgar; Mrs.

Pro. “Sandy” Stevenson up to date has received forty entries for the Peace River District Open Golf Championship, to be played at Daw- son Creek. All those intending to play and have not made their entries should get in touch with “Sandy,” as the draw will be made Saturday evening. Arrangements have been made for those not able to get there Saturday to have the draw posted in the window of Bell-Fleming Hard- ware, giving who you play and the time. Rules on program are, if ten’ |minutes late, game will be defaulted. es e *

Francis Donald *and Geo. Duncan challenged Larry Cobb and “Clay” Butchart to a match after their game in the fours. After sixteen holes of play there was only one point differ- ence in favor of the latter couple.

A letter has been received from M. S. Caine, secretary of the Prince George branch . More interest is being shown on the south end by reports from a dance held at Aleza Lake, which showed a net profit of $95. Last week-end a party of 14 from Prince George went by car to Hansard and from there to the end of the trail. Mr. Caine, who is an experienced road builder, considers the location an excellent one, and is pleased with the progress made.

We are glad to hear that the Junior |

Chamber of Commerce of Prince George is planning to help financially

Lyle, merchant and mill owner of Aleza Lake, who is a booster of long standing for the Monkman Pass route, leaves this week with John Bergstrom, known as Cariboo John, for the McGregor crossing. From there they will travel over the blazed route and chain and mark the mile- age to the junction of where the Monkman Pass road joins the Yellowhead Highway. Mr. Berg- strom is ome of the four men who helped blaze the trail early in the spring.

Since August 15, Francis Murphy |

of Pouce Coupe, the “Corrigan of the Peace,”” has been taking charge of a small crew of about 15 men who have been cutting a trail passable for a car. They branched off from the end of the truck road near the Kinuseo Falls and are now in the

vicinity of the Slate River crossing. |

They have made remarkable pro- gress, and their locating crew have already blazed the trail several miles ahead and are near Monkman Lake. The car is leaving tomorrow, and will catch up with Mr. Murphy and he will personally oversee this historic trip.

We are in receipt of a letter from Albert Hayward of Briar Ridge, stating they are cooperating in put- ting on a radio dance in Bay Tree Thanks for your letter, Mr. Hay- ward. These dances are being sponsored by this station, CFGP, tc assist in raising funds for the Monkman Pass Highway Association There is absolutely no charge to you for anything. All your community is expected to do is provide the hal] and a radio. Some districts do not understand that it is necessary‘ to write and tell us you are giving you: hall. This is necessary use CFGP requires 50 halls and then they will advertise that your com- munity is helping the highway fund. We need to hear from more com- munities. It will not be long before the dances. Hurry!

} SOIL DRIFTING CONTROL IN PARK BELT SOILS

(Experimental Farm News)

The sandy loam soils of the park belt are very subject to damage by erosion resulting from continued high winds and dry weather, states G. E. DeLong, Dominion Experi- mental Station, Lacombe, Alberta. In many cases the damage done dur- ing one wind storm is relatively small, but the cumulative effect of a number of storms over a period of years is doing serious damage to some of the finest agricuitural land.

The most serious damage is done during the spring months to unpro- tected land such as bare summer fallow or fall-plowed stubble. In extreme cases the full furrow slice has been removed during a three- day blow, covered that were planted in the bottom of a furrow. treme cases spring grown grain is blown out after it is three to four inches high and ditches along the highways are heaped up with the finest silty loam from adjacent fields.

Experiments conducted Dominion Experimental Station, La- |combe, have shown that the use of |trash cover and a late-seeded cover }crop wiil provide sufficient protec- tion to prevent summer-fallowed land.

The trash cover is provided by a

system of plowless tillage that leaves |

the stubble on the method followed at Lacombe is to disk the stubble early in the spring to promote the germination of weed seeds, which are destroyed in the seedling stage by subsequent tillage with the stifftooth or duckfoot cul- tivator. If the cultivation is given with the duckfoot cultivator while wild oats and other weeds are small |) seedlings, no other implement is re- |quired to control the weeds, and the |trash cover will not be stroyed as is jthe case where a one-way disk is | used too frequently. Reports indicate that working the land more than j;once with the one-way disk destroys | the stubble trash cover.

The use of a cover crop of cne- |half bushel of wheat seeded between August 1 and 15 provides additional! protection against soil drifting. If the cover crop is seeded too early, it makes more growth than is neces- sary to provide sufficient protection, and as a result utilizes moisture and ‘plant food which could be used to advantage by the crop of grain planted the following spring.

Winter annual w such as stinkweed and shepherd’s purse, are a problem in cover crops. It has been found, however, that a stroke with the spring-tooth harrow in the

spring just before seeding will de-|

stroy these fall-established plants and leave the surface lumpy and trash cover undi to a min- imurn degree, thus providing a max- imum amount of protection against soil drifting.

It has been observed that a mer-fallow handled as outlined produce a crop freer weeds, such as wild summertallow that has and kept biack throughout The standard been plowed olack may produce yields than a Y going produced and been by |cover crop. On the other hand, it absolutely necessary to adopt a sys- ‘term of farming that will prevent the |loss of one or two inches of the ric |surface soil each season or _parable damage will be done to | finest agricultural soil of Alberta.
