Livestock breeders and agricul-

galists are entering into one of me busy seasons. Plowing. har- ,wing. and seeding all represent lo" hours of hard work. The suc- M, of any of. these farm oper- stions depends to a large extent "1 planning and materials used.

planning can be divided into ml-ge general groups. that is. bmding problems; field manage- mmt, which includes soil fertil- nation and crop rotation. etc.: and

aerial maintenance.

preparation of the soil to re- mve the seed and provide proper feed for maximum growth is of me importance. Without good

impossible to produce profitable,

On top of the United States Embargo on livestock from Can- sda there has come another stiff blow for a considerable number at purebred livestock breeders. Canadian authorities now imposed .n embargo on purebred cattle (rum Scotland. For some time

-i no lmportatlons could be made directly from England ex- (-I-pl after A period of quarantine in Scotland. The rcason for the embargo on livestock is the pre- valence of Foot and Mouth Dis- ease in England.

Hardest hit by this embargo are the Canadian and American Short-

limn nnd Aberdeen Angus breed- ers ulio purchased a considerable number of animals at the 1952 Pr-rill Spring Sales of these breeds.

All prior to the United States embargo.

For a considerable number of years post no cattle could be im- ported to the United States - rcclly from Great Britain, all such had to be quarantined in

Canada an additional sixty days following their regulation quaran- tlrm at the Canadian Quarantine Station at Levis. P. Q... and St. John, N. B. The second quaran- tine period was spent on Canadian farms which were approved by the United States authorities as being suitable for that purpose.

Garden ('ultIriition

llcstroylng needs is only one of the reasons for cultivation. the big gain is improvement in the texture of the soil. The cultiva- tion lets air in. breaks up the clay lumps, makes the soil more open. or as the experts say, more fri- able. Porous. loose soil will ab- sorb and hold more moisture and will dry out: much more slowly in dry weather. Chemical fertilizers are in com- mon use in garden plots. These are clean. easy to use. and power- ful. They are made up of three Inaln clcmenls: Nitrogen. phos- phoric acid and potash. with the roportions of each expressed in ormulas of three figures-4-8-4. e first of these boosts the green growth above the ground and is especially valuable to lawns. let- gce, and other leafy vegetables. e Phosphoric acid encourages the growth of starch and sugars. flowers and seeds.

the role these wonderful drugs play in effectively combating a number of infectious diseases in man and animals. Recent invest- igations indicated that it may not be too long before antibiotics will also be used effectively in the treatment of plant disease.

Extensive work has been done by officials of the Botany and Plant Pathology Division, Federal Department of Agriculture. Also scientists of the United States De- partment of Agriculture have just released some results of 3' pre- iimlnary experiment using differ- ent antibiotics.

As interesting and promising as these results are. much more work remains to be done before these methods of applying control will be applied to commercially grown crops.

Acctonemia

This condition is commonly seen in dairy cattle and is believed by some to be more prevalent than in former years. It is also ob- served ln sheep and is known as Pregnancy Disease. In sheep it is more serious than in cows and generally has a higher death rate.

The disease was first recognized in Holland. Denmark pnd Sweden. and then in England. A short time later it was recognized in America. At first it was believ- ed to be a complication of Milk Fever or some otiier condition af- fecting dairy cattle. however, since that time it has been found to be an entirely separate condition.

The disease generally affects well-nourished milk cows and typical cases usually occur eight to fourteen days after calving. This is not necessarily confined to this period because it may oc- cur anywhere up to two months following calving. Most crises oc- cur during the period when cows are kept in stalls. in fact. affect- cd.cows show a remarkable lenti- ency to recover when out on grass. '

The principle symptoms are loss of milk flow. dullness. constipa- tion. and an odd smell on the breath. It is interestinz in note, but not everybody can detect the odour from the breath.

Very few losses will be exper- ienced if professional assistance is obtained when the animal shows the typical symptoms. A urine sample submitted to the labora- tory will enable an accurate diag- nosis. .

In the general feed management of dairy cattle it is essential that a highly nutritious. well-balanced ration is made available.

"I have six faithful serving man Who taught me all I know:

And where and when and who." so sang Rudyard Kipling; and the five famous W's and their bro- ther "H" are just as important to- day as they were in any age of the human race.

Most great achievements in ex- ploration. and in nearly all scienti- fic triumphs worth the name. have owed less to the desire for per- sonal gsln than to the natural cur- losity which urges men to dis- cover whst lies beyond their im- mediate sight or understanding. These six great little words are behind every good newspaper story. They have made the British Com- monwealth. Caplsln Cook, wanting to know what lay behind the stories of land in the unknown Pacific, found s new continent. For the same reason. Columbus set sail and discovered America. The discovery of Australia was due to that desire to know which drove men in little vedsels over trackless waters to find new lands.

Many attempts to climb Mount Everest have ended in failure; but this year, or the next. the dream will become-a reality, and the world may be handed some new and worthwhile data.

The largest geyser in the world is located in the volcanic district of New Zeaiand. Iceland is the home of numerous small geysers and you can take your breakfast egg to one of these and have it hard boiled in four minutes. Ice- land women take their washing s- long to the place where the hot water bubbles out of the earth. and in this way save the cost of fuel. This is slso done by the Maorls in New Zoslsnd.

In the second century 3.0., the Egyptians uud pumps worked by levees to extinguish fires. The Ro- man. Pliny refers to fire extinguish- ers but. fails to tell us about their construction.

The Premier said that. although it was probably too late to remedy the situation. there are too many universities in the Maritlmes. that one with I. broad curriculum would be preferable to the several with a narrow course of study now in existence. In somewhat the same vein he mentioned the very high standard attained by P. W. C., and went on to speak of a letter. only one of many which he had receiv- ed, asking for the establishment of 0. rural high school. He said ”we csnnot take Grades XI and XII out into the villages." and that in fact, be doubted whether these grades can be taught satisfactor- ily in any more than one place. as good educational institutions of the calibre of P.
