New Brunswick has provided funds for its heaviest program yet in post-war construction of high- ways and bridges. R. Palmer, deputy minister of public works, said the cumnt budget provides for a total of $33,454,000 in ex- penditures on both revenue 'and capital accounts. ‘

His department was concentrat- ing on completing unpaved sec- tions of the Trans-Canada High- way. Byspalss routes were being built around major cities and towns. .»

Arthur Branchau , chief engi- neer of the Quebec department of roads, said his department last year spent $20 more per motor vehiclet han it collected in gaso- line taxes and fees from driver licences and automobile registra- tions. ‘

MAJOR FACTOR

Mr. Branchamd said one factor increasing the cod for better road transportation facilities in Quebec is the deficiency of rail- road “Of all the Can-a- dian provinces. Quebec is the least suitably provided with rail- road lines in relation to its pup- ulation and territory."

His department’s primary ob- jectives icluded: Modernization of trunk highways connecting Que- bec with other provinces and the U.S.; lessening traffic congestion on main arteries; improvement of rural roads; extension of roads into ,undeveloped areas of poten- tial resources.

THE IDEAL DAIRY COW

The ideal dairy cow is one which conforms to the type that makes the production of large quantities of milk physically pos- sible. The type of cow and the ability to produce milk are re- lated. When we breed for pro- duction, We also breed in get the type of animal associated With high milk production. The super- iority of the pure breeds of dairy cattle over scr’ub or most grade cattle is the result of over a cen— tury of constructive breeding and selection for both type and pro- duction. A knowledge of what con- stitutes the ideal type is essen- tial for the intelligent selection of both males and females if a pro- fitable dairy herd is to be sex cured.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

An ideal dairy cow must be able to consume and digest large quantites of feed, convert them into milk, reproduce regularly and maintain health and vigor over a long period of years. To be phy- sically able to do these things ef- fectively, the cow must have:

1. A large udder of good qual- ity long wide and strongly .at- tached, with teats of fair size. properly placed, and milk vein-s that are prominent and tortuous.

2. A large barrel, which indic- ates a large feed capacity; the back carrying this barrel must-be strong and straight, and the I'lle long and well arched.

3. A long, broad and level rump to glue ample room for calvmg. Not only do spacious and well formed hind quarters aid repro~ dill'llon. but they also make pos- smle fine development of a de-

considering assistance to munici- palities and northern development roads. Funds for provincial high- ways were $25,000.000, albout 11 per cent more than was avail- able in 1957.

C. A. Knight, deputy minister of highways tor Newfoundland, said motor vehicle registrations

have been steadily increasing. In ‘

1949 Newfoundland had 13,765; in 1957 there were 46,887 vehicles registered.

Mr. Knight said Newtoundland has always been handicapped over other provincesdn obtaining asphalt at reasonable prices. No suitable tank ships were available for carrying penetration - grade whalt in bulk. Asphalt cements were imported in drums. The to- tal cost was about three times that to other provinces.

GOVERNMENT COMPANY

Plans now had been do for a government-controlled ‘ mpany to set up a still to produce pene- tration-grade asphalt.

H. T. Miard, deputy minister of highways for British Columbia, said there are 34 road contracts in progress in B.C., 18 of which were on the Trans-Canada High- way. B.C. had 53 bridges under construction, 21 on the Trans- Canada.

G. B. Williams, chief engineer in the development engineering branch of the federal department of public works, said total pay- ments to the provinces in connec- tion with the Trans-Canada High- way have reached $162,000,000.

Total length of the highway, in- cluding national parks sections, was 4,470 miles. As of July 31, 2,607 miles had been graded and 1,878 miles paved; 255 structures had been completed.

Mr. Williams said study is be- ing made on the feaz$bility of a causeway across Northumberl-and Straits, between Prince Edward Island and the New Brunswick mainland.

sirable mammary system.

4. A large heart «girth gives ample room for the heart and lungs, so they will function nor- mally to keep the cow in good health and to lengthen her per- iod of usefulness.

5. Freedom from excess flesh iness when in milk is necessary because there should be a na- tural tendency for the food nu- trients to the manufactured into milk rather than into beef or fat.-

6. There should be beauty and style which result from the blend- ing of well developed body parts into a symmetrical whole, and with an alertness and carriage which is pleasing to the eye. PROPER SELECTION

The proper selection of dairy COWS. heifers and bulls is of fund- amental importance if the great- est profit in dairy-mg is to be’real- ized. Whether selection is for foundation animals to start a herd, for heifers to replace older or unprofitable cows, or to ob- tain a suitable bull, the choices made determine to a large ex- tend the degree of success that will be attained in the dairy burs- iness.

There are save all things neces- sary in properly selecting dairy animals, namely, an understand- ing of the ideal type, and ability to interpret and evaluate produc- tion records and pedigrees. Furth- ermore, it is necessary to und- erstand how much importance Should be given to each of these items in selecting any one ani— mal.

but also practical experience in handling stock. This experience helps one to observe and under- stand the degree of relationship that exists between production and conformation.

Knowledge of What constitutes general dairy type, together with the special breed-type standard adopted for eadh of the dairy breeds can be gained from the livestock journals and other pub- lications, as well as it the live- stock fairs. Each breed associa- tion has adopted a system of classifying COWS according to type This is not only an aid to selec- tion, but educates the5 breeder in what constitutes breed type.

This system is also used for classifying bulls according to a combined value tor type as well as breeding, so that an officially classified bull would be one of suitable type and out of parents of good type and performance. PRODUCTION RECORDS

Selection can be made more accurate by giving some consid- eration to production records, as well as to type. This is because production is also an inherited characteristic and thus make it possible for some cows of good type to be poor -producers. Pro- duction is quoted in terms of milk as well as butterfat, but before these quantities can be properly evaluated, the conditions under which the records were made are needed. The age of the cow, times aday milked, and length of lac- tation period all affect production and must be considered in deter- mining the producing ability of a cow most accurately. PEDIGREE STUDY AID"

The consideration of an anim- al’s pedigree also can make sel- ection more accurate. Milk pro- ducing ability as well as type is transmitted from one genera- tion to the next.

‘ When the animal to be selected is immature, its ultimate type and producing ability cannot be correctly judged by its appear- ance, since the animal is not fully developed. Because these charac- ters are transmitted from gener- ation to generation a knowledge of the type and production of its ancestors can be used as an in- dication of how the immature an— imal will develop.

The contribution of any avnces. for to the inheritance of an indiv- idual is halved for each genera- ttion farther removed from the individual being considered. An— cestors three and four genera- tions back on the pedigree con-

tribute comparatively little to an . animal’s inheritance and there- I

fore should not ‘be given undue consideration. In making selec- tion, therefore, it is most import- ant to find out all one can' about the immediate parents of an ani- mal. ,

The amount of consideration to give an animal’s pedigree and how much to the individual type depends upon its sex, age and the amount of reliable informa- tion concerning the ancestors that is known. In selecting a _ mature cow, her type, mammary develop- ment and own performance are accurate indications of what she actually can produce. A further study of her pedigree would, how- ever, give an indicathn of what inheritance she would transmit to her offspring.

In selecting a mature bull, the type and production of his daugh- ters indicates accurately his breeding ability, and is much more reliable than the perform-

ance of his ancestors. However, '

when selecting a bull calf for the future herd sire, a great deal of consideration shoudl be given to his pedigree.

Selection should therefore be based upon an individual’s type and performance as well as its pedigree. The more accurately one knows about each of these items, the more consideration should be given to it. increased production, income and profits are dependent on how all the in dividuals in the herd have been selected.

BREEDING TRO‘UBLES

By DAVE MclNTOSH Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA ( OF )—B arrel-ches-ted

Maj-Gen. Jean Allard, vice-chief of the army general staff, is only the latest senior officer of. the Canadian armed forces to put his foot in his mouth publicly.

At least three chiefs of staff and four other high—ranking offi- cers have done this in recent years. Their statements have set off brief fur-ores in the defence department or in government but only in one case has an officer been removed from his post.

Even in this case, the officer was merely shifted to another job and kept the same rank. He was Air Vice - Marshal John Plant, now general manager of Avro Aircraft Limited, who suggested, albeit jokingly, that the army be abolished to make room for a bigger air force. ‘

Air Vice - Marshal Plant was chief of RlCAF technical Services when he made the statement in Toronto. He was removed by for- mer Liberal d e f e n c e minister Ralph Campney and made chief of RJClAF air materiel command.

OTTAWA (CPL—Poetry, run- ning water and radio are just three areas where the Greenland Eskimo is far ahead of his Cana- dian cousin, so. a government otficial.

’Allord Only @ne Oi Many To Put His Foot In Mouth

Gen Allard, one of the army’s best strategists and tacticians, was quoted at a press conference Monday as saying Canada has asked the United States for atomic warheads and that the army has ordered the American Lacrosse sulface-to-surface mis- sile.

NOT INVADING POLICY

Gen. Allard later said he had not intended to respass into the realm of government policy and what he had said or meant to say was that the army had asked the government. to supply it with these weapons. ‘

Defence Minister Pearkes called Gen. Allard into his office Monday night but apparently did not chew him out.

Mr. Pearkes, a former major- general him-self, seems to take a more lenient view of “breaks” by his senior officers than did Mr. lCampney or Mr. Camplney’s predecessor, Hon. Brooke Clax- ton.

er. Pearkes was already on the record as saying that re-equip- ping of the army must not be long delayed.
