Two crop problems which have threatened to take heavy toll of the Island's 1954 production have eased considerably during the past week.

Potato blight, which had been favoured with the persistent spell of wet weather, has been greatly alleviated with the advent of clear sunny skins experienced during the past few days and officials of the Seed Inspection Branch here state that if the improved weather con- dition continues little damage will have resulted thus far. It is cm- phasized that with the possibility for a fair potato market this fall, growers should continue to take

every precaution against the dis-' also becoming prevalent in the crop.

"The army worm which threat- ened the grain crop in a few remote areas of the Eastern part of the Province has run its course," states Mr. F. M. Cannon of the

CROP CONDITIONS IMPROVED EXCEPT FOR PREVALENCE OF ROOT MAGGOT

worms live just under the skin and it is only after the turnip has been harvested that they work their way into the interior where the real destruction is c used.

Mr. Cannon states t experi- ments show that turnips which are harvested late in the fell have less chance of being infected than those which are taken from the ground at this time of year, since the majority of the worms leave the turnip during the latter part of October to winter in the soil.

"Farmers are therefore caution- ed" says Mr. Cannon." from pull. ing their crop now, since a root showing very little signs of infes- tation will become badly deterior- aicd within a week after harvest- ing".

Eisenhower

Entomological Department oi the science Laboratory, Charlottetown. The last infestation of this in- sect was experienced in Prince Edward Island during the sum- mers of 1937-38. At that time the destruction caused was much more serious and widespread than it has been this year. Mr. Cannon suggests that army worm infesta- tion may have been prevalent in areas other than those reported to his department and farmers will possibly not realise this fact un- til harvesting operations begin. The history of the army worm shows that it comes in cycles of about ten years and since it is 17 years since they have made their appearance in this Province, it was thought that the danger of reinfastation had past. Mr. Cannon believes that a serious at- tack oould occur next year, but this would be influenced to a great extent by the type of winter which the Island will have in the com. flu season. A heavy fall of snow would be very favorable for the survival of the insects. Army worms

i

are destroyed by their own na- tural parasites and entomoliglsts do not fear that the pest could become prevalent over a large area for any great length of time.

Root Magot Prevelent

A plague to Island turnip grow- ers for a number of years has been the root maggot. Infestations in the crop this year has been quite heavy and prevalent throughout all areas of the Province.

This insect, due to its habits. isp very difficult to control and efforts to prevent its causing havoc in the root crop have to date met with little success. Mr. Cannon points out that during the time the tur-

Saluies Hard Work By Congress

DENVER, Colo. (AP) -- Presi- dent Eisenhower Monday night saluted what he called the "hard work and effective accomplish- ments" of the 83rd Congress and told the American people not to be ”too discouraged" over peace pros- pects in Europe.

Speaking over country-wide radio and television networks. Eisen- hower looked back over the record of Congress and ahead toward the November congressional election. He said Congress co-operated with him in giving the United States "a new era of fair play. to treat everybody alike, to have no favored classes."

Eisenhower worked in a swat at Democrats who have been talking about recession by declaring that the lie has been given to prophets of "gloom and doom."

Rev. Mr. Gordon took as his text Romans 1212 "Be not conform- ed to this world; but be ye trans- formed by the renewing of your mind ,that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable, and per- fect will of God." He spoke of the need to adjust ourselves to things

justments to things which are evil.

five countries of the proposed European Defence Community. SEEK BRITISH PARTICIPATION speculation on the Chartweil talks centred on two themes:

1. France may have tried to talk Britain into agreeing to another Big Four conference on German reunification before approving the arming of West Germany.

2. Mcndes - France may have made an llth-hour attempt to ob- tain full British participation in EDC. Britain has pledged full sup- port for the project but has de- clined membership on grounds it would interfere with her Com- monwealth commitments.

As Churchill said farewell to the French premier, he said: "I will do all I can to help you."

Later, Mendes-France told re. porters in English: "We were all agreed on continuing the co-opera- tioli of the Western countries, and especially our two nations, toward

sels between France and the other

our common ends and ideals."
