Weed ilontrol-Vile-quires Extensive Research

R,en)arkai)ie progress has been lnade in the last four or five years in weed control, largely be- cause of the introduction of chemicals. and results have been obtained which are very valuable to farmers. Much has yet to be done. however. even on our own experimental lamis. pointed out Dr. E. S. Hopkins. Acting Director of the Experimental Farms Ser- vice. in an address to members of the National Weed Committee. I-Zasw.-ll Section.

The dinner. at which Dr. Hop- kins was the guest speaker, was sponsored by the. National Weed Committee. under the chairman- ship of Mr. 6.. Knowles. of the Field Husbandry Division of the Experimental Farms Service. Re- presentatives of all eastern pro- vinces. the Maritlmes. Quebec and Ontario. devoted the three- day session of their annual meet- ing to the study of the most re- cent experiments in the weed con- trol through herbicides and cul- tural methods; provincial legis- lation in..connection with weed eradication and to the fundamen- tal research and special problems faced in each region of Eastern Canada.

In the review of the weed situa- tion throughout Canada. Dr. Hop- kins made it clear that more ex- perimental work conducted over longer periods of time was neces- sary to counteract erroneous views. to avoid pitfalls and give to: the public fairly reliable results. The

Taken In Break Al S'side Store

Summerslda police reported no deveilotpments lat night in regard to the break at the jewellery store of H. R. Crockett Ltd. in the early hours of yesterday morn- ing which resulted in the loss of merchandise valued at upwards of 3800.00. according to Mr. Carl Crockett.

The burglary was discovered by Cat. Doyle I short time before four o'clock. while on patrol'. En- try had been gained by breaking the upper pane in a window on the side opposite the new build- ing now under construction for the Royal Bank of Canada.

There is only a narrow alley way between the two buildings and it is blocked od at the street end so the thief or thieves had I secluded place in which to work and Cst. Doyle must have made a thorough check to notice that the window was broken.

The upper pane had been broken because the lower part of the win- dow is covered by sheathing. On investigation it was found that the showcases had been rifled and from eight to ten watches stoim. along with a quantity of expensive oi-garc-tte lighters and signal rings.

A small quantity of change was taken from the cash register and two custolmers' watches were -taken from the work bench. Either by accident or design. for the most part. only higher priced watches were taken. Mr. Carl Crockett said t-ha-1 he had visited the store on Sunday and everything was in order.

This break bears some resem- blancc to one which took place at S:unplc's Drug a-nd Jewellery Store in Kensington on Novem- -brr 10th when jewellery to 1.-he value of sl.200.00 was taken. No arrcsts have been made in this case.-S

Select Woman Of The Year In liniied Siaies

By Dorothy Roe

NEW YORK. Dec. 4-(AP)- Pearle Mesta, Umted states Minis- ter to Luxembourg. is named 1950 "Woman of The Year" in the an- nual Associated Press poll of wom- en's editors of U. S. newspapers. Mrs. Mesla. famed as Washing- ton's number-one party-giver at. the time of her appointment in" 1949. has surprised critics by set- tling down to a serious lab in her diplomatic post. The fact that the season's smash musical comedy hit on Broadway concerns the doings of a lady am- bassador, however, also has focus- sed the spotlight of public interest on Mrs. Mesta. This cause-and-effect is reflect- ed ln the editors' poll. which over- whelmingly names Ethel Me.-man. star of the musical "Call Me Ma- dam." as the year's outstanding actress of the legitimate stage. Last year's "Woman Of The Year" was Mary Martin. star of the Broadway success. "South Pac- ific."

standing women of the year various fields as follows: Movies-Gloria Swanson, for her sensational ccmeback in the mot- ion picture, "Sunset Boulevard." Literature-Pearl S. Buck. whose moving article, "The Child Who Never Grew,” written about her own daughter, caused country-wide comment. and was reprinted in book form late last summer. Science-Dr. Irene Corey Dilier, of the Institute for Cancer Re- search. Philadelphia. Dr. Corey dis- covered tiny fungi present in all cancers. ' sports--Gussie Moran. the ”lace- pants tennis player who has won fame for dramatic tennis costumes. as well as for some sound inter- national competition. Radio-Mary Margaret Mcnrlde. who recently switched her chatty, Woman-To-Woman daily interview program from NBC to the ABC network.

, The Farm - Home Shelterltelt

If shelterbelts about farm homes could be planted in winter,-. they would be much more common than they are at present. when the warm days of spring and summer come. the howling snow storms and the days when the wind blew a gale from the northwest are forgotten. Plenty of water and re-I gular exercise in the fresh a and sunshine of a sheltered barn- yard. are conducive to the health of farm animals: when stables are Crafty and '3 uncomfortable. live stock require more feed to main- tain body weight. In winter. when nothing can be done. the value of shelter is appreciated but in spring it is forgotten.

While it may be too much of an undertaking to set out a wind- break in one YCBAF. a start may be made with one row. If plantings are added from year to year until 9. belt one hundred feet wide has been set out on the west. north and east of the buildings. what at first appeared as a grseat deal of work will be accomplished grad-

ually and without much effort. When located one hundred yards from the buildings. ll windbreak

will not be the means of filling the yard wlth snow.

At the Experimental station. Charlottetown. P. E. 1., many trees have been tested to determine their value for shelter. Chinese elm will provide the most shelter

in the shortest time. but the trees are not long lived and grow slow-
