Col. T. L. Kennedy Commends Dcûry Publicity Publicity and advertising to promote the sale of farm pr'o- ducts is a very necessary piece of work, and the way this job is be- iîîg tackled by the Dairy Farm- ers of Canada is worthy of com- mendation. ln making this state- ment, Col. the Hon. T. L. Ken- nedy, Ontario Ministi'r of Agri- cultue. added that .what he liked most xvas the fact the farmers xvere doing the job through their own organization. They did not look to the Government or any- one else to do the job, but have finaneed and carried it out them- selves. and that is sound, he stat- ed. Col. Kennedy pointed out that, since Ontario accounts for the production of more milk than any other Province, the dairy far- mers of this Province stand to gain considerably from the cf- feets of this campaign to promote the use of dairy produets. While total costs are substantial, this is spread over a large number of dairy farmers, and the eost to any one individual is relatively small. He stated that Ontario's Dairy- men have always constituted one of the most progressive groups of farmers. He felt sure they would demonstrate this progres- siveness once again. b.y authoriz- ing the set-aside from their re- turns whieh is bcing represted by the Dairy Farmers of Canada, in order to finance this promotional work.

Indecd, Stanley Young, Fieldman for the Crops Branch of the Ontario Department of Ag- riculture, says this weed is caus- ing much concern to the farmers, particularly in Northcrn Onterio, wbere early and lete cultivation is not possible. This weed is most prominent in unimproved meadows, long term pastures and waste land. It is a perennial and bas a short, coarse root-stock. A large number of stems grow from one root and these stems will reach e height of from 6 inches to 3 feet. The low- cr leaves which slightly clasp the stem tend to be longer, nerrower and more toothed than the upper ones. The flower wbich is usually1 one to two inches in diameter and blooms from June tbrough to September is easily spotted along roadsides and- in open fields. i has 20 to 30 wbite rays errangcd around a bright ycllow dise. Af- ter the flower has ripened this dise turns into bundreds of seeds. Mr. Young goes on to point out that the Ox-eye Daisy is often found as an impurity in timothy seed. For this season extra care should be teken when buying or baving seed clcaned to make sure no secds of this weed are present. As the daisy yields to cultive- tion. it is seldom found where good ferming practices are car- ried out. However, he states that infested sod fields should be plowed, if possible to a depth of 4 inches in the faland then bar- rowed immediately afterwards. .Wbere and when practical the field mey' be cultivated about every two weeks, going a little deeper eacb time. To enable early spring cultivation, Mr. Young suggests the field b. ridged up the lest thing in the faîl: Continue the cultivation in the spring, preparing it for a row crop and thus ellowing for inter- row cultivation until the daisy no longer bas a chance to grow. An importent factor in this prectice is that no loss of a erop year is suffered, yet the field will 1 clened up, 2. 4-D et the strength of tw'b lbs. of actuel ecid per acre is re- commcnded by Mr. Young and mey be applicd cither when the daisy is in the rosette stage in May or et the regrowth stage in August. Howcver if claver is present, 2, 4-D is not recommend- cd as it is susceptible to this weed killer. Concluding, Mr. Young states that as with most wceds, extra time ahd cultivation is necessary to bring complete eradication of the Ox-eye or Wbite Daisy. The stroke of e whale's tail, which cen smash even a large boat, is the fiercest blow that cen be struck by any animal. WHITEWASHING You cen't afford losses froîn Diseese and Vermin CALL K. H.

PHONE 585 Errors Creep In In Best Regulated Newspapers Although many people sub- stantiate that it is human to err; in the newspaper business erring is an uniforgivable sin. Such a sin was committed i our last issue. In attempting a description of the mile-long parade preccding the Kinsmen Karnival Friday evening, it was believed that al phases of the parade including a complete list of displaying mer- chants was mnentioned. On pub- lication of the paper, however, it was discovered that the name of a prominent local merchant who had one of the largest dis- plays in the procession had been unintentionally overlookcd. W. H. Brown, Case implement dealer. flot onîy bad a giant ele- vator in the parade but hie also supplied the motivation for tv;o floats and brought an ingenius xvashday scene to the attention of parade -viewers. Mr. Brown's son, Bob, drove the Case tractor which drew the tloat withi the different divisions of hockey players on it. Ray Thurtie drove a second Case tractor which pulled the float on which young girls from the Orono skating Club posed. Ray Easson handled the giant Case bale ele- vator which caused such com- ment. One of the most intcresting ex- bibits in the parade, howcvcr, ap- pcared on the truck driven by MVr. Brown himself. Intended to be a -lazy farrner's wife," it showed a woman sitting beside a washing machine reading a book while the clothes in the machine were bcbng adequately handled automatically. Certainly evcry woman, farmer's wife or other- wise. would love to be able to sit beside a machine reading a book while the family wash washed itself. 1.
