PMEA oc ons es . _ _ * kn > Farm Regions Much Reduced With total land area of 146,â€" 000,000 acres, Manitoba has only oneâ€"seventh of this territory orâ€" ganized into municipal units after 55 years of active settlement. In the organized area only 7,789,920 acres were under the plow in 19836 against 9,022,738 acres in 1921. Plan Landâ€"Use Policies Manitoba‘s policy in the past 65 years has been of the more or less hitâ€"orâ€"miss variety, the report says. All Manitoba soils are not suitable for agriculture, he said. "It is vitally important," Prof. Ellis reported, "thatâ€" factors which have determined the varied soil types and conditions should be earefully studied and landâ€"use policies planned not for exploitaâ€" tion but for maintenance and conâ€" servation. Cultivation in West Is Down Millon Acres, Says Expert More than 1,000,000 acres of land have gone out of cultivation since 1921, Prof. J. H. Ellis, of University of Manitoba, said in a report to the economic survey board. Shown, shortly after his arrest in Paris, is Herschel Fripel Grynâ€" szpan, the 1i7â€"yearâ€"old Germanâ€" born Polish Jew whose fatal shootâ€" ing of Ernest von Rath, third secâ€" retary of the German embassy in Paris, started the new reign of terror against the Jews in Gerâ€" many. Grynszpan‘s parents had been illâ€"treated by Nazis. The opinions are those of Police Inspector Edward Dunn, H. G. Fester of the Ontario _ Safety League and W. G. Robertson, of the Ontario Motor League. They unanimously agree momentary inâ€" attention is the most widespread cause of motor killings. Pedestrians come in for a goodâ€" ly share of blame from Inspector Dunn. By strictly observing trafâ€" fic regulations, however, motorists could have avoided 47 per cent. of the accidents this year, he conâ€" tended. Millions of words have been written and spoken about the eauses of automobile accidents, says the Globe and Mail. Boiled down by three Toronto experts, they amount to these: Momenâ€" tary inattention, impatience, lack of courtesy, incompetence, careâ€" lessness and liquor. These faults apply to the pedestrian as well as the motorist. Traffic Deaths Caused Chiefly By Inattenrtion Three Toronto Experts Agree On the Reasons Why The In 1868, when the population of Canada was 3,511,000, the apparâ€" ent home consumption of wheat was 22,822,000 bushels. In 1937 with an estimated population of 11,120,000, the home consumption of wheat was placed at 105,904,â€" @OObushels.

For some ime, the birds have been seen flying high overhead and five were found feeding on the carcass of a dead cow on a bush road farm. One was shot and Rev. A. B.

For nearly seven yearsâ€"ever since the first rubber shod tractor rolled across the fields of the late Harvey S. Firestone‘s farm, the relative merits of steel and rubober as tractor tire equipâ€" ment have been subpects of divided opinion. Which is more practical? Which is faster? Which will do more work on a gallon fuel, a tracâ€" tor on steel or a tractor on rubber? Under the observation of an enâ€" gineer from a leading university and of forty keenâ€"eyed farmers who gathered in a field of barley stubâ€" le a fow weeks ago, Carl Schoger, sixâ€"timo national plowing champion of the United States, answered the above questions, but with facts of actual performance. Tries It Out From the fields of his neighbours, plowman Schoger borrowed six tractors, provided each with a set of steel wheels, a set of Firestone Ground Grip wheels, and an auxilâ€" iary fuel container of certified capâ€" acityâ€"accurate to the fraction of a dram. Thus prepared, and with the carburetor drained, Schoger opened the line from the certified fuel tank and started across the field on the steel wheels, pulling a gang plow set at a depth of 6" to 7%%". _ Upon the attainment of full travel speed, a marker was dropped along the furrow and a splitâ€"second stop watch started measuring time to the hundredth part of a second. At the erd of thirtyâ€"six seconds, a second marker was dropped. At the end of a hundred seconds, a third marker was dropped and the tractor continued around the field until the Tests Prove Saving of Hundâ€" dreds of Dollars If Machâ€" ines Run On Firestone Groundâ€"Grip Tires Instead of On Stzel Rubber Is Better On Tractor Wheels Carl Schoger, sixâ€"time national plowing champion of the United States, proved by actual test that a txactor runs better on rubber than on steel. With Firestone Ground Grip Tires he has saved hundreds of dollars in fuel costs alone. Dean E.

He is summoned by Joe Marsh, noâ€" torious gangster, who asks him to take his younger brother Whitey (Mickey Rooney) to Boys‘ Town. Whitey goes belligerâ€" ently and qum-reis with everyone but little sixâ€"yearâ€"old Peeâ€"wee (Bobs Watson). Then Whitey gets an idea, He‘ll campaign for the mayoralty of Boys Town, a "fat job" as he calls it. Piowing Champion Settles Tractor Controversy ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO The figures tabulated from these tests furnished accurate comparaâ€" tive information; 1st, on the numâ€" ber of yards covered in 36 seconds by each tractor; 2nd, the number of seconds required to cover the disâ€" tance between the first and third markers; 3rd, the number of minâ€" utes and seconds required to empty the fuel tank at top plowing speeds, All of these figures wore used as a basis for measuring the relative performances of rubber and steel in terms of time and fuel requireâ€" ments. The results were startling. _ Inâ€" creased fuel cost on steel ran as high as 42 per cent. Increased time requirements on steel were even greater. To plow a given area of ground with one particular tractor required 43 per cent. more time than was necessary to do the same job on Firestone Ground Grip Tires. Big Saving on Fue! On the basis of 20,000 miles of service, the projected figures in the fuel saving alone amounted to $552 on tractor A; $248 on tractor B; $472 on tractor C; $226 on tractor D; $248 on tractor E; $470 on tracâ€" tor F. Added to these amazing fuel savings shown by Firestone Ground Grip Tires are the equally important savings in man power. In a hundred days of operation, five tractors equipped with Ground Grip Tires would do more work than six tractors plowing on steel whoels, thus providing one extra man and tractor for another job. last drop of fuel was consumed and the tractor sputtered and stopped dead in its tracks. With this data recorded, the tractor was returned to the starting point. _ The steel wheels were replaced with Fireâ€" stone Ground Grip Tire equipment and the procedure was repeated. your MARTINâ€"BIRD Important new ore developâ€" ments _ southeast of _ main shaft on 250â€"ft. level.
