Re ---------- R-- ee The Farm Forum /] IT'S TRUE THAT . , , . . « +. wartime research has fostered the development of several new in- secticides. One known as benzine hexachloride, or "666" for short, was developed in England and promiscs to be a worthy rival to "DDT". It has many of the pro- perties of the latter aud is even more effective against some species. This is being tested in Canada, but it pot available as yet in sufficient quantities for general use. . . . still another synthetic chemical, I'nown only as "1068," is also more toxic to some insects than "DDT" and promises to be a valuable addi- tion to available insecticides. « . wartime research has also de- veloped several new methods of combating the rat problem. Two of the newly developed rodenticides arc "Antu" and "1080". "Anw"' {alpha - naphthyl - thiourea) was used successfully in erradicating a large population of rats out of Baltimore recently. This poison can be used with reasonable safety to man and other animals, if proper precautions are taken. The other poicon--"1080" (sodium fluorr-ace- tate), is the most effective killer of rats and mice so far discovered. Unfortunately it is exceedingly poi- sonous to other animals, also to man. lor this reason its use wm Canada is as yet prohibited. . . . botonically, alfalfa, trefoil and sweet clover are not clovers. For actually the "clovers" of the genus Trifolium include- aply red clover, alsike, Dutch clovel and crimson clover. The others belong to a dis- tinct type called leguminace. « . . before ordering nursery stock plants for importation into Canada from another country, an applica- tion for a permit must be made to the Chief, Plant Protection Divi- sion, Dominion Department of Ag- riculture, Ottawa. +. . for the calendar year.of 1946, Canada has agreed to export to the United Kingdom the minimum of 250 million pounds of bacon_ and fam, 125 million pounds of cheese and 600,000 cases of evaporated milk, HOLD EVERYTHING N 2 PAT, OFF. "And what do you do for a live ing, Mr, Dan. the Dip?" Subway Clover Restores Top Soil It is Also an Excellent Weed Killer, Says the: Brandon Sun- It used to 'be said that if you tickled Canadian soil it laughed wheat. That was when our top soil was virgin lana. Those days are passing and we must conserve that top soil and use our research facili- t'+ as well as fertilizers to main- tain our position, if we can, of hold- ing the bread basket of the world. O. com +, farmers did "mine" wheat for years ~ther than plow deep as the, reed to doin older" lands. ' The problem of depleted top soil is worse in the United States and the revival of its growing possibili- tics is their prob! m today. Some varying experts say fifty pbr cent. of the United. States top soil is worn out. So that another immi- grant may try to save America for Americans, Australia sent the U.S. a sort of clover which is termed a subway clove which has been test- ed on the wornout hillsides in Ore- gon and has made it good dairy- land producing prize sheep and wool. 3 It is of interest :. farmers here- abouts that this Australian clover is a dense-growing, self-secding pas- ture, hay and seed crop; all kinds of livestocl. and poulfry liké it, and it does well 'in red soils that are very acid dnd low in phosphorous. But it docs seem to like mild winters, The south and the Pacific roast will pro- bably benefit most from it, In addi- tion to all its virtues it scems to be an excellent weedkiller as well, es- pecially when seeded together with arass it just smothers them, HAD A GOOD TIME" -- \ War years meant vacations to these donkeys on a farm near Kent, England, but they will soon be returning to the sands of Margate where they carry youngsters at the seaside resort.

Russians Should Quit Manchuria They Have No Business In Chinese Territory Claims New York Herald Tribune Manchuria is Chinese territory, inhabited by more than thirty mil- lion Chinese. Its mines and indus- tries and food are essential to the creation of a strong China. It is an area from which all North China can be penetrated, as the Japanese proved. Russian domination of the Manchurian provinces is a threat to the existence of China and is an attack upon two long-held Ameri- can policies--the policy of the open door and the policy of protecting the territorial integrity of China, For all these reasons the Russians have no business in Manchuria. Therefore, the Russians should get out. Internal Peace Agreement The Russians know--for the evi- dence is obvious--that the strong right-wing faction in the Chinese government is both anti-Communist and anti-Russian. They also know that the Chungking regime, with American assistance in transport- ing troops, desires to take over all Manchuria, including areas in which the Chinese Reds have strength, as soon as possible. Meanwhile, China's internal peace agreement (which ended the fighting between Chungking and the Chinese Reds in most areas) has not been applied to-Manchuria, where neither faction is dominant, and fighting continues in some parts of the Manchurian provinces. While it goes on, Chung- king is giving more and more em- phasis to American aid in the eco- nomic development of China .and is resisting Russian demands for further concessions in Manchuria. U. S. Troops in China There are American troops in China--kept there, according to the American contention, for disarming and shipping home the Japanese. There is, ip addition, a program under consideration for long-term American training for the Chinese Army. Outside of China, but not far away, there are American troops in southern Korea, in all of Japan and on many of the islands of the western Pacific--all of which are potential American bases in case of war with Russia.

'SPOTS OF SPORTS By FRANK MANN HARRIS - ("A Six Bit Critic") oeipeeee e In the past it has always been our custom to try to efrain from giving advice to boxing promoters. There are several reasons for this, the principal one being that advice is just about the last thing such promoters desire from sports writers. What they want from us is plenty of publicity, and no ques- tions asked, in advance of the brawl --heaps of admiration for their match-making genius if the thing should happen to be worth looking at--and loads of sympathy and alibis in case their 1uch-pallyved "Fight of the Century" turns out to have been "The Fight of the Stenchery." (O.K. officer, we'll come quietly). * . « However, right now we feel very much like departing from this cus- tom, and tipping off the hard-work- ing promoters to a whole series of fights which, if properly smoked up, might very well break all exist- ing attendance records. The prin- cipals would be well known--world famous, as a matter of fact; cach should have a personal following that should pack the joint; and if they can only fight a battle half as good as the one they talk, the re- sulting affairs should b: worth go- ing many miles to sce. * * * The contestants? Well, you might have guessed it yourself. Who 'else but all these high-up Allied Generals who, a year or so ago were so chuck-full of admira- tion for cone another's genius that you might very we.! have thought that Napoleon's and Wellington's were a dime a baker's dozen; and who, today, are beginning to let down their hair and te- such tales out of school that -e begin to wonder how i: is that we're not all heiling Hitler right this minute. . * . \ Yes, indeed, those should be fights that should draw like a suc- tion pump. Just imagine the thrill of sitting there and hearing some flannel-mouthed announcer beller-- "In this corer, representing the Yew-nited States of America, weighing one ton and a quarter, medals included, General y But we'd better desist. Perhaps, all things considered, it would be just as well not to name any actual names right at this juncture; but no doubt you can see what gorgcous possibilities the whole thing offers. In fact, the more we think of it, the more we're inclined to try and dig up an angel and. go into the fight- promoting racket ourselves. * * * Whenever a referee stops a fight --as happened in 'Toronto recently --and tosses the alleged contestants out of the ring on the grounds that necking is, or should be, a private rather than a public pastime, there's ote question that is always asked. It is: "If they're so fussy abont fights being on the level, why do they let the wrestlers get away with the stuff that they regularly do?" * " * The answer to that one is, of course, that while modern wrestling is technically listed as a 'sport, it actually belongs among the spec- tacles, sus. a. rodeos, circuses and the like. Your true follower of wrestling is a peculiar and special species---one with which we have had a great deal of intimate and close-up dealings, and whieh we are just as far from figuring out today as we were, at the beginning. * * * . The only sports follower who can get more enthusiastic, more frantic than a wrestling fan is a wrestling fanette--for, in this regard, the poet was right on the beam when he said that the female of the species is deadlier than the male. During the stress and strain of a hard-fought bout we have seen wrestling ring- siders go into frenzies and perform antics and actions that, if you've never attended one of these affairs, you wouldn't think possible. We've seen hard-headed and successful business men--also men of high position in the learned professions --throwing hats, canes, programs, bottles and other bric-a-brac at some big grappler who had roused their ire by, apparently, doing foul damage to their favorite. * * « .. And they were in deadly carnest when they did it--really craving for the villains life or gore. But we doubt that--deep down in" their hearts--one out of a hundred actu- ally believed that all the mayhem and skullduggery that went on in the ring was on the level. They knew, in their innermost brains, that ninety per cent or more of what they siw was nothing more or less than an act. Maybe they went home, and were a little bit ashamed of themselves. But they were back again, the following week, just as red-eyed and enthuse iastic, just as cager for their favor- ite to ram the «villain head-first through the concrete floor and then tamp him down with the double- dealing referce. * * * Yes. a strange breed indeed, your wrestling fans and fanettes. Some- times we wonder what their reac- tions would be to a real bout--one in which there was nothing but straight wrestling involved--won- der how they'd enjoy one such bout, thirty or more ycars ago, which was for the championship which both the principals claimed, and very badly wanted. For in that fracas the two contestants grappled for more than four hours without a single fall; and, at one period, stood for more than two hours, locked, without once moving their feet. * * * "We're afraid that would have seemed rather slow to your modern wrestling bug. Still, there are other things that can seem rather slow, too. Sports columns like this, for instance. So that will be all till next week. : 5-Months-Old Quintuplet Calves Shown First Time Quintuplet calves, only group of their kind known, were exhibited for the first time in Fairbury, Neb., recently. The bovines -- named United States, Russia, England, China and France -- weighed less than 200 pounds at birth, Today they ag- gregated 1,000 pounds as they pranced from their house and paraded through [Fairbury. The parade had the aspect of a Nebras- ka county fair. ' Costunies consisted of red Halters and white blankets lettered in red with their names. France is the only heifer. Two are white faces, one is red, and two are a mixture of red and white. The five were born November 20, 1045, of a grade Shorthorn cow and a non-registered Hereford bull. The mother was owned by Leo Schmidt, who lives five miles northeast of Fairbury. Islands Submerge Two steaming volcanic islets which rose out of the sea 200 miles south of Yokosuka two months ago are submerging. A patrol flight re- ported the twin islands had almost completely disappeared and could hardly be discerned from the air. The volcanic formation appeared about .Ieh. 10. Smoking .rocks reached a height of approximately 50 feet. 1 CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING BABY UHICKS FOR SALE TOP NOTCH CHICKS HATCH BIG profits!

But with a population of only 12,000,000 peo- ple,- it will not amount to a great deal in view of the extent of the world disaster. Only one course re- mains open which 'will enable us to lend really substantial aid to the victims of famine,' That course is to increase our wheat production by plowing up some of the acreage which we in- tended this year to leave in suin- merfallow. Agricultural experts and farm leaders have already estimated that by plowing up about 2,000,000 acres of summer fallow this year, Canada's long-term agricultural program would not be too serious ly imperilled. and an extra 30,000, 000 to 40,000,000 bushels of wheav would be harvested. a.
