At the same time, pro- ducers of red clover seed have -suffered as well, for only the long- tongued bumble bées in thelr search for nectar could help.in pol- inating the seed, Bumble bees are not so numerous as they used to be, hence clover seed has also been somewhat scarce, ' Czechoslovakia Red Clover In"an attempt to overcome both difficulties, the Dominion Experi- mental Farms are trying out a red clover, grown in what was formers ly Czochoslovakia.

Although this picture was not made while the British planes were flying over France, it was snapped for the express purpose of. showing the planes and formations used. The planes are Wellington bombers of the very latest issue. On. July 14th, during the French national celebrations, five squadrons of these - bombers: and fighters, flew to-the southwest of France and back, on normal training flights.
