By Pete McGillen " Outdoors Editor, Toronto Telegram Can you imagine a snooty waiter in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, on Park avenue in New. York, leaning over the shoulder of a prominent guest and saying: "The special today, sir, is filet of beaver, beaver en casserole, beaver cutlet, and we also have os tails in sauce, delicious; fresh in today by plane from the wilds of northern Canada; it's tasty, sir, and cooked as only our chef can cook it" Sevivey and the menu- says $8. Well, such a thing is far from im- possible. Wallace McKee, Thor Lake, president of the New Ontario Trap- that beaver carcasses are fed to the. dogs. He 'thinks they should be pick- ed up by planes, flown to a central sold to northern resorts as a tidbit: for tourists. Last year more than 6,000 beavers were tagged in thé Sud- bury area alone, and a beaver should dress at a minimum of 30 pounds at, let us say, 60 cents a pound, or an oxtra $16 to the trapper. "If the trappers knew when where they could 'market the carcasses they would soon quit feeding them to the dogs, buy 10 times as much dog food." Me- Kee said. 3 If such a market was established, McKee believes it would mean more than $100,000 annually to the trappers. Mr, McKee is serious about this plan and will outline it to the trappers when they gather in convention at Sudbury, February 16-16-17. and Barbara lleayn helped Miss Law on Saturday and we would be glad to SPEC 051s COOKING ONIONS ........

"The use of chemicals for removing cotton leaves just before harvest time has" done much to ad- vance the mechanized harvest of cot- ton in recent years, The same idea has possibilities in the harvesting of field beans, particularly where the use ul the combine harvester 1s a common practice, Shedding leaves is part of the na- tural life eyete of plants. A weakness develops at the juncture of the leaf stem and the plant staik, allowing the feat to fall with a clean, smooth break. This occurs at the end of the growing season after the seed, or frait is fully grown, IL may be hastened by con- ditions uniavourable to groowth such drought, ; mnsect injury. On the other hand, conditions of am- ple moisture or fertility may prolong vegeative growtin Leaf defoliants react In much the same way as a light irost. Ihe leaf cell structure is shocked, producing a degreesol injury us lrust, or comparable to its tate ol application. ihe process ol ripening in its later stages 1s essenually a loss of mois- ture. This 1s hastened by dropping the leaves and so allowing the sun to reach the whole plant. Several advantages would appear rise from the adoption of this practice. Iixperiments conducted by the Cereal Division at the Central Ex- perimental» Farm, Ottawa, have' shown that maturity in field beans can be hastened by a week or possibly more. This would be a distinct ad- vantage in fields where there are low spots with retarded maturity. It could be an advantage where it is de- sirable" to handle a crop before bad weather sctsen, since quality in field beans 1s essential and weather dam- age can be considerable. The chem- ical will not only dry up the bean Lu Mr. and Mrs. C. Leahy, of Richmond | pers Association, says it is a shame] - packing plant, processed, "and -then]. The price received for the meat wotild | : leaves, it will also_lake. ihe leaves] poff-weeds-in the crop, dry theni up, L and- allow earlier combining. 4 may also be an advantage in controlling second growth. In some seasons with prolonged wet weather in late August and September, great diffi- culty in harvesting and loss in qual- ily is caused by second growth. As with a lot of good ideas, there are drawbacks, says Dr. W. G. Mec- Gregor of the Cereal Division, - Ex- periments have shown that there is likely to be a loss in yield and when applications are made as long as three weeks bore maturity, this loss can be considerable, Karly applications cause a considerable reduction in size of seed. loo heavy applications, par- ticularly of some chemicals, "freeze" the leaves to the lant. Care appears, necessary to cause just enough injury to produce an abscission cell layer. If rain occurs within 24 hours of the application, it may be necessary to repeat it, Wide spread use of defoliants for field beans cannot be recommended until more tests are made to determine the time and rate of application, and the results expected. Gain in quality and case of harvesting must be com- mensurate with loss if yield: It may be found that with' the proper de- foliant a: bean with a slightly later maturity can be grown, thus securing larger yields and still Mawiring the! crop uniformly.
