Increased exports are accounted for by higher shipments of filberts,, wool, goat hair, mohair and dried sheepskins. " The causes for the large diop of imports from Canada for 1961, as compared with 1960, cannof be raced {from "available information, bit the following is offered as a possible ex- planation. In the last months of 1949, large shipments. of agricultural ma- chinery were, madd to Turkey, and the figures would not show in Turkish im- port figures-until 1950, = Similar ship- ments did not take place in 1960. Also, in the first months of 1960, the traditional type of compensation trade was being conducted and ample sup- plies of luxury type commodities were being imported from the United States "by way of Canada." Such shipments show up on Turkish import statistics but not in Canadian export statistics. Transactions of this type have virtual- ly ceased. ; * + so» . CHURCHILL, ON HUDSON BAY, HAD RECORD SEASON Churchill, on Hudson 'Bay, recéntly concluded the best season on record. Twenty-one ocean-going vessels dock- ed there between July 29 and the end of September, which is the largest number in any one year, and 7,278,- 443 bushels. of grain were shipped overseas, also a new record for this northern port." The season of navi- gation was inaugurated on July 29, with the arrival of the "S.S. Wark-. worth", which -was also the last ship to leave, sailing on October 4. - N » * LJ * MICE CONTROL IN ORCHARDS Mice are now seeking winter homes in orchards, warns B. J, Teskey of the Dept. of Horticulture, Ontario Agri- cultural College, and unless proper precautions are taken they can cause much damage to trees, ! Damage from mice is: more severe and more difficult to detect than dam- age from rabbits, since mice attack trees at ground level or below, where the damage to the crown of the tree and -the roots cannot be seen. -. Suckers at the bottom of the trees should be removed, and all leaves, litter and other rubbish cleared away from the trees for a distance of at least two feet. A fine mesh wire at least two feet high may then be placed around the tree, extending down to root level. If the base of the wire is embedded in crushed stone or cinders, extra protection is provided, as mice will not burrow into this ma- terial. Mice can often be eliminated in large numbers through their habit of : seekipg shelter under boards in the fall. A number of boards placed throughout the orchard will serve to concentrate the mice in definite areas, where they can be speedily killed. 1licized dangers of the atom bomb are minimized. TEXTILE INDUSTRY IS IMPORT- ANT FACTOR IN CANADIAN ECONOMY Canada's textile industry, which has developed without fanfare and almost unnoticed, is a very real and tangible factor in the economy of this country, producing cotton, wool andf ~~ ities and qualities which will bear any comparison, This opinion was' expres- sed by George R.

Grants to hospitals have been increased by millions during the past few years. For example, the government grant to the Oshawa General Hospital under the last Liberal government was $1,707.00. Last year under Frost government it was $61,224.00, exclusive of any ca These grants have resulted in increased hospital ac- In the last threé and one-half years the bed. tion. commodation, capital grant for new construc- capacity of public hospitals and sanitaria has been increased by 27% and 5600 additional beds are either under construc- tion or are about to be proceéded with.
