In August, 1 abundant second growth Clover was plowed down e usual after harvest culti- followed. First thing this b. BP the field was cultivated THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO and 800 lbs. of 4-8-8 fertilizer were drilled in and cultivated. The field was then let stand for a week when 20 manure spreader loads of manure were applied. This was plowed in along with the necessary. cultivation. On May 25th the 17 bags of Northern On- tario Chippewa Foundation A seed were planted and at this time 1200 lbs. of 4-8-8 fertilizer were applied. The field was dusted six times with 25 lbs. containing poison used for each of the first two applications. In each of the remaining four applications, 30 pounds of dust were used without the addition of poison. The po- tatoes were dug October 2nd. It is believed Mr. Johnston might have exceeded the 600 bushel mark if his planter had not caus- ed so many misses.. Standing of Members A. Johnston, Pontypool, 575.8, Chippewa; E.

GOODYEAR SUPERVISION CLUB HOLDS INAUGURAL BANQUET The Supervision Club of the Bowmanville branch of the Good- year Tire and Rubber Co. held its inaugural banquet at the Queen's Hotel, Oshawa, Friday evening. The Club, with 40 mem- bers, is comprised of the men occupying supervisory positions in the local plant and is a new de- ?arture conceived for promoting a 'ielpful exchange of ideas and dloser co-operation in promoting smoother industrial relationships, with plant safety as basic to its interests. The Club plans to meet once a month, save for the sum- mer holiday period, and in meet- ing outside the plant, the mem- bers have opportunity cf getting better acquainted in discussion of mutual problems. The sp5eaker at Friday's banquet was J. T. Kidney, Akron, Ohio, Safety Director cf all Goodyear branches, who was introduced by Superintendent Charles Cattran as honorary chairman of the new Club. Mr. Kîdney spoke on the subject of "Industrial Safety'" and outlined how foremen and super- visors can help greatly to reduce or prevent factory accidents. His address, scintillating with humo2r, did not fail to, mention the honor won by the Bowmanville factory in capturing the Safety Trophy representing the least lost time through accidents cf any Good- year branch in the world, Other addresses were made by cl{irman of the Club, J. C. Samis, who outlined the story cf its for- mation and its objectives, O. J. Presson, chairman cf the inaugur- al dinner committee and other members who took part in pro- moting the project. The excel- lent banquet was featured by a menu with the courses by-lined with typical industrial terms to be preserved as interesting sou- venirs. Officers cf the Club for 1944- 45 are: Hon. Chairman-C. Cat- tran; Chairman - J. C. Samis; Vice-Chairman-M. J. Oke; Sec'y -R. G. Harding; Treas.-W. H. Thickson: Committee for the in- augural dinner: Chairman, O. J. Presson; A. Hurst, L. D.
