M. Armstrong, Assistant Agricultural Engineer, "Field Husban- Service, dealt with many phases of farm engineering. These included the shortage of labor, the national value of mechanized agricul- ture, power 'and equipment for' field operations, and more complete utiliza- tion of existing machinery. . _ With reference to field operations, he pointed out that power and labour might be saved by following certain tillage practices. Experiments con- ducted at the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, had shown that a double disc cultivator or one-way disc night be used in place of the plow on stubble land without reducing yields. Those implements were particularly useful for after-harvest cultivation, for weed control where several culti- vations might be required to control, weeds, as in a grain-hay rotation. Of course, where corn-borer was present, corn stubble must be ploughed to cover as many stalks as possible. 'Numerous ploughing experiments con- ducted on Dominion Farms over a period of years on different soil types, and on different rotations, had shown that shallow ploughing resulted in just as good yields as deep ploughing. Provided the shallow ploughing was carefully done, it produced good re- sults, and might save considerable time and power. ~ Winning His Spurs Joseph Denny In 1340 was the first naval victory of any account for England. In order to have a route to France secure King Edward 111 found that he must con- trol the English Channel. As the King went through France. with his devastating army it was not long be- fore he found a French army on his track and so at Crecy in the North to face the foe, the young Prince, Ed- ward's young son, called the "Black Prince" from the colour of his armour was placed in the forefront of the battle. Late that afternoon the French, worn out with a long march, came up with the English. _In order to attack the English they must charge uphill over ground in which the English had dug pits and in the glare of the after- noon's sun, Had the French used dis- cretion they would have given the troops a night's rest; but full of con- fidence they pressed on and did not | take time to rest. : They were met with brawny Eng- lish archers and were no match for them and they were mowed down by the English archers and fled in wild confusion. It was at this Battle of Crecy, that at one time, when the young Prince was hard pressed that help was implored of the King but in- stead of complying with the request the wise monarch.sagely replied: "Let the young man-win his spurs." young Prince without the aid of the King. In fact the Black Prince be- came England's foremost warrior and in 1356 he fought his most glorious battle at Poitiers. It was a desperate hand to hand conflict and greatly pro- longed.- The King of France was per- sonally present with his young-son, a| lad of twelve vears, The Black Prince took them both prisoneys. That very night with exquisite colirtesy he wait- ed at the table in person on-his cap- tives and ever since that time the Prince of Wales uses the noble motto, which this service suggested, Ich dien --4"T serve". : The trees of the forest that bear the brunt of the storm can best able meet 'the hardest conditions and the young man who has had to weather 'the storms of life is best able to meet most conditions, however adverse they may be. -- One would think that often the bril- liancy of a father would be trans- mitted to the son, but it is seldom the case. We do not read of many in- stances in history where a brainy father has been followed by an equal- ly brilliant son: = In British history there is but one 'Elder and one Younger Pitt who both shone ds out- standing Premiers. It must resolve upon this fact, A man to achieve success must toil hard and long and against severe conditions in striving to attain some lofty posi- tion. It is true that many a young son of a distinguished parent is" just as gifted but he has not had to rough it like his father did and because of that lack of hardship he has been un- able to reach the same eminence. To-win his spurs should be the am- bition of every youth, One mistake our leaders often make is that they have the impression that their off- AMERICAN-BUILT "FLYING FORTRESS" WITH 7 MILES ALTITUDE Because of its long range of over 3,000 miles the Boeing "Flying Fortress", when flown by the Royal Air Force, can bomb with case military targets in Rumania, Finland, Bulgaria, Greece and.

The Clearly scen here is spring can fill their shoes. It is true they might give the children moncy and education and enable them to travel but unless and until the lad can "win his, own spurs" there will be something lacking in his makeup be- fore he can attain to the rank of true knighthood. fe . It has been said that because of this lack of our leaders who were placed recently in charge of the Pacific out- posts was the true reason why failure took place. .
