Even in Normal times, Canada pro- duces only about one-quarter of the wool she requires. Under wartime conditions, with half a million fighting men to equip with uniforms, great. coats, blankets and other woollen articles, at least 85 per cent, of the wool needed has to be brought from overseas, largely from Australia and New Zealand. i EL With war developments now threat- ening the supply lines, Canada faces a serious situation--so serious as to call not only for compulsory reduction in the amount of wool allowed to be used for civilian purposes, but also for greatly increased numbers of sheep on Canadian farms and ranges in order that Canada may attain a greater de- gree of self-sufficiency in- wool. How the minimum objective of a million more sheep may be attained in Canada in 1943 is explained in the Pamphlet, No. 65, which has just been issued. The objective can be reached if every sheep owner will hold for breeding purposes all useful ewes and eatly ewe lambs of good quality that he can use in increasing his own flock, and, if after doing so, he has still good ewe lambs or useful aged ewes on hand, place them with someone else who could use them for foundation stock to increase his holdings, or to with sheep. To make sure of dis- posing of - these extra sheep to the st advantage, the owner should get in touch with the Agricultural Repre- sentative, Uxbridge, or the Livestock Representative of the Dominion De- partment of Agriculture before decid- ing to send to market éwes that may not place them with other breeders. tained by writing to the Pu ment of Agriculture, Ottawa.

Recruits Wanted Two Royal Canadian Artillery units in Toronto are now recruiting up to strength, They are the 7th Light Anti-Aircraft Battery and the 118th Field Battery. Major B. B. Osler, Officer Command- ing the 7th Light Anti-Aircraft Bat- teyr, says the chances for promotion in_ his outfit are good. His brother, Major P. S. Osler, commands the 118th. / Although both are artillery units these two batteries differ as much as a machine gun and a trench mortar. The 7th uses long barrelled anti-air- craft guns that hurl shells at a ter- rific rate.of speed high into the air. The 118th uses heavy, short barrelled field pieces that knock out tanks and pill boxes, The training that both units will re- ceive is interesting and diversified and their equipment is the largest type hot from the production line.
