'Dr. Chase's Ointment OTTAWA REPORTS Good Wheat Crop For Present Year In Sight In Canada And United States Apprehension regarding wheat supplies for the present crop year have been largely dispelled accord- ing to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics survey of June 30. A billion bushel crop is in sight in the United States, and the out- Jook in Canada is promising though ft is too carly to interpret Can- adian conditions in terms of bush- els. Substangdp] increase in acre- age and maintenance of present crop prospects in the prairie prov- inces, however, could only mean better than average production, Both countries will have sizeable carry-over stocks of old wheat on July 31 when the current crop year closes. » * * The southern hemisphere coun- tries of Australia and Argentina are now seceding their new wheat crops, with both expecting to show increase in acreage over last year. British growers are reported to have sceded three million aeres, or nearly double' the prewar average. Prospects in neutral countries, prin- cipally Eire, Spain, Portugal and Turkey are favorable, though Spain and Portugal are likely to remain on an import basis . for 1044-45. The position of occupied countries also. appears favorable with the possible exception of Ro- mania. The harvest in North Afri- ca is believed to have yielded a fair surplus which can probably be diverted to Ttalv. The southern Italian crop will also be available to the United Nations instead of the Nazis. - » * . There is a further threat to the food supplies of the Nazis this year with the Allies driving up through northern Italy where a large crop is usually produced, and now attacking in France, where harvest has commenced in the southern arcas. In India where a wheat crop of about 387 million bushels has recently been gathered, there still appears to be a shortage. 'Conditions are not as critical as 'last year but it is expected that im- ports will continue to be necessary. * » * The Agricultural Supplies Board will pay 20c a bag for dried pods of milkweed floss, collections begin-~ ming the first or second week of p-- September. Country schools, where cash payments will be made, will be the chief collection centres. The silky floss in the sced pods will be used in life preservers for the Armed Forces. No milkweed leaves - are being collected this year, WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING Sound And Sight Our sense of sound is sontetimes dependent on our sense of sight. Since steamboats became num- erous in the harbors of the world ship captains have communicated back and forth with each other by means of blasts of ~ the Zhips' whistles. With the 'increased number of Diesel motor &hips in use, 'a problem developed. The mortor ships used air whistles in- stead of steam whistles. Conse- quently their whistle blasts were accompanied by no billowing plumes of steam. Since the steam could not be seen, ships' captains had no way of knowing which of perhaps a half, dozen motor ships anchored in the same general vici- nity' might be signalling. John Hays Hammand, one of the most prolific of American in- ventors, seeks to provide the motor ship with a visual, as well as -an auditory signal, He has de- vised a gadget that will spray white powder into ghe air cach time the air whistle is sounded. Thus it will be possible to "see" the sound as well as hear it. We hope the designers of the streamlined Diesel trains will take advantage of Mr. Hammond's invention. The train whistles mean a lot to those whos: dwell in the sparsely inhabited portions of our country; ' Germany Loses Portugal's Wolfram Germany recently was deprived of her last major source of wol- fram--source: of steel-hardening tungsten -- by Portugal's decision to stop all exports to Germany and to shut down her wolfram mines immediately, It was a major diplomatic, vic- tory for the Allies, consummated on the eve of the great invasion of France, Nn NN NNN i 0 I | Extra strength, longer wear, 'increased tough- ness, more protection against aging and in- ternal heat -- these are the properties of .

"This process should be done out of doors, Tribute To work ~ Of Allied Navies Scenes behind the fast advanc- ing Allied battle line in Italy are the greatest tribute to thé work of the Allied navies, Thousands of soldiers from va- rious countries, thouSands of vehi- cles of various kinds -- forming a cavalcade that has to be seen to be believed -- are there because sailors brought them there. That this prodigious job could be Jone successfully gives some idea of the degree of immunity these precious cargoes enjoyed Eoth at Anzio and behind the main front. If the Germans had control of the skies they certainly would have had unprecedented opportu- nities to do a vast amount of damage among Allied concentra- tions of material of all kinds, But. they didn't have it. The weight of this material is now being hurled against the Ger- mans by the great armies with "immense and diverse supplies necessary for keeping men © and vehicles in conginuous effective action. Postmen In Britain Now Knock Once A 100-year-old rule in -Britain that the postman must knock twice -- a double "rat-tat" -- is being broken for the sake of night workers, In houses where "sleeping during the day the post~ man often obliges by making sil- ent deliveries. ' The postman knows he is breaking. the rule, and the Post Office knows it too. It is part of the unofficial wartime service of the postman, unofficially recog- nized at headquarters, Another rule broken during wartime is the one forbidding the postman to deliver a letter . any- where except to the address on the 'envelope. Recently a Manchester post- man had a letter addressed to an engine driver whose" R.A.F, pilot son had been reported kill- ed over Berlin, 'The letter show- ed the son was alive; it was writ- ten from 'a prison camp by the boy himself, Hurrying to the house with it, the postman found the engine driver had gone to work. He telegraphed his depot, got the times when he was due at certain stations, and telephoned him the news. Later he delivered the let- ter to him in his engine cab as it drew into a Manchester station, Spray Keeps Dogs, Cats From Shrubs Flowers and shrubs in the front garden and ornamental plants on front porches and the corner posts of porches may be protected against damage by dogs and cats by the simple use of dilute nicotine spray. The spray is harmless but its smell is very offensive to cats and dogs, even when applied so thinly that persons are unware of its presence, The spray evaporates and should be renewed after rain. In good weather, spraying every two weeks is sufficient, The name of the ma- terial is nicotine sulphate and it may be bought at any seed or drug store. The spray is prepared by mixing one-half teaspoonful of the nicotine sulphate with one gallon of water, which makes the mixture . strong enough for all ordinary cir- cumstances," xB | people are'. Veteran of this, and the last war, Maurice Thorburn, 39, aircraft worker of MacDonald Brothers, Winnipeg, Man, can do an imitation of Hitler that will pass in any strong light. Shortly after he joiried the Royal Canadian En- gineers in Sept. 1939, he gave a' pre-view for high ranking mili- tary men which went over with a bang. New to theatrical work, he found himself in demand at army entertainments, And when he went overseas in 1940, he '"execut- ed" Hitler for the troops at Alder- shot. Retugned to Canada in 1942, he joined © MacDonald Brothers' Aircraft Ltd, where he is pro- curement supervisor. In the last war he served with the Royal Navy. ) ? Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 1.
