THE CNAJJIL~ bTTI~M l*%~JW mLIn..1 P vpLILrd wL PAGE FOURTH AAINSASBA BibNui.zunrm Potato Growers' Field Day H.Id at D.thmany on Aug. 9 A most successful Potato Grow- ers' Field Day was held in Cavan and Manvers townships on Friday alternoon, August 9th, with about 75 in attendance, about 25 of whomn were Boys' and Girls' Po- tato Club members. The program was in the forai of a tour Çith the farm of Mr. Delbert Olan being the first eaUl. An excellent ten acre field of chiefly Katahdin potatoes was a credit to this grower. There were two dusting experimental plots under the direction of Dr. G. H. Berkeley, Senior Plant Patholo- gist St. Catharines, in this field but it was too early to notice the results of sanie. The next stop was at Mr. Clif- lord Hudson's, Pontypool R.R. No. l, wherè the Department has eight varieties of potatoes duplicated ftve times. Mr. Norman Thomp- son, Guelph, who is in charge of the experiment gave a short*out- Uine of the projeet. Mr. Hudson demonstrated a power take-off ,sprayer belonging to a neighbor, Mr. A. Porter. This machine which is self filling gave an ex- cellent coverage to the foliage. The party then crossed the road to Mr. Henry Blakely's to observe an excellent six acre field which contained the following varieties: Warba, Katahdin, Cobbler, Hou- mua and Chippewa. A small plot of Teton grown from a bag of po- tatoes furnished by the Ontario Department of Agriculture for ex- perimental purposes was inspect- ed in an adjoining field which con- tained Mr. Blakely's tuber unit plots. These potatoes were ob- tained in the States and are re- ported to be resistant to Bacter- ial Ring Rot. The next two stops were at Mr, Alfred Johnston's and Mr. Ernest Cavano's where two excellent fields of Chippewa potatoes werE seen. These are two of the. 24 entries in the Five Hundrèd Bu- shel Club. Many will recali thai Mr. Johnston won the Gold Watcl in this Competition in 1944 and Mr. Cavano the following year The last eall was made at Mr Milton Weatherilt's, Bethany, where Dr. Berkeley explained the spraying experiments. One of the finest stands o! Sebago potà- toes was observed on this farm. Mr. R. E. Goodin, Potato Spe- cialist, Crops Branch, Toronto, was called upon on two occasions to address the group. On the last occasion he discussed markets and nlthough he admitted it was dan- gerous to prophesy, he feit as- sured there should be a favorable market for the 1946 crop. E. A. Summers, Agricuitural Represen- tative, who completed the plans and directed the tour was pleas- ed with the response and the val- unble information that wns made available by the speakers and with the growers discussing their problems amongst. themselves. In Mr. Summers' few remarks he mentîoned that the new insecti- cide, D.D.T., was the potato grow- ers' dream corne true, as it had controlled însects including the Leaf Hopper (the worst potato insect in the past> practically 100 per cent with either the spray or dust method. Professor Robert Keegan, Field Husbandry Dept., O.A.C., Guelph, was introduced to the group and in his few words remarked that he was agreeably surprised at the wonderful strides made by the Durham County potato growers. This statemçnt was substantiated 1by the fact that the Durham Coun- ty Five Hundred Bushel Club has -had the highest average for Old tOntario for the past two years. -The growers from the appear- )ances o! their fields are anxious to reta in this fine record for 1946. The concern o! government shouid be what motivates men, not just who manages them. There is a lot o! diff erence be- tween,what is good and sound and what merely sounds good. The right thinker and woirker does his best, and does the think- ing for the ages. . .. He improves moments; to him time is money, and he hoards this capital to dis- tribute gain.-Mary Baker Eddy.

Cash in on Lambs Before September 1 In view o! the fact that the pre- expires on August 31 next, and live lambs marketed after that date may seil from three to four cents per pound live weight iess than under the present ceiling, iamb raisers are urged to take advantage of the market previous to September 1 and make an ef- fort in connection with the feed- ing and flnishing of the lambs. Whiie the ewes are stili nurs- ing their lambs, lamb creeps may be provided into which the iambs may pass and feed upon specially prepared concentrate without be- ing moiested by the older sheep. A creep is simpiy a slatted pen with siats sufficiently far enough apart to permit the iambs to go through but close enough to pre- vent the larger sheep from enter- ing. Following the weaning of the lambs, they shouid be treatedi for internai parasites and dipped for eradication of external parasites. They should then be piaced on fresh pastures, such as meadow aftermath or rape, and given ne- cess to a trough in which at the beginning of the feedîng period whole oats should be placed. La- ter some barley and oil cake may be added in the proportion of oats, three parts; barley, one part; and oil cake, one-haif of one part. Where sait is provided under shel- ter from the weather, a mixture of ten pounds sait and one pound Phenothiazine may be supplied. Fresh water should be available at ail times, and, during extreme heat, provision for shade will add much to the comfort of lambs and sheep. In the special pamphlet, No. 67 "The Prevention of Disease in Sheep," full directions are given concerning the control of internai and external parasites in sheep and lambs. A copy of the pam- phlet may be obtained from the Dominion Department of Agricul- ture, Ottawa, on request.

Port Perry Planning For Public Hospital The Port Ferry Hospital which has operated for many years as a private hospital has now been taken over by a Board o! Gover- nors appointed by the municipal- ities o! Port Ferry, Reach, Scugog and Cartwright, and Is now a Public Hospital. The hospital is being purchased as a going concern by the people o! the above mentioned munici- palities. A canvass o! the district for funds to purchase and !ully equip the hospital is being under- taken. It i5 hoped that everyone will make some contribution when called upon, to nid this important and worthy objeet. The people in the north section o! West Durham should and must have a hospital which is avaîlable when necessary, and the co-oper- ation o! everyone is needed to make this projeet a grand suc- eess.
