ing the three-mile mark, wiping out the old record 13 232.2, held jointly by Chatavray and team-

ivas the Hon. 0. 0. Baker. Minister ,1 Agriculture.

Mr. Michael Morris, President of the Canadian council of For As- gncial.lOXIl,- spoke of the for in- dustry and its loss of prestige which was mainly due to textile plants developing new styles and placing emphasis on lighter weight fabrics, but he was and Y0 "OW an ever increasing demand for fox furg especially in European man'- gets, and believed the industry would make a real comeback. He spoke of the Island's early history .5 a fur breeding centre and the great. development of silver fox rarmiiig here which spread to so many other countries. and he said ilut es a result of fox breeding here this province became known all over the world. His address was most interesting when he out- lined the development oi the fur garments from the early dliys of ihe Indians and the Eskimos and he was delighted with the fact that after years of agitation the Dominion Government had remov- ed the excise tax from furs and lhls should be of great benefit to the industry. He hoped also that the United States Government would also remove its tariff bar- rier against silver foxes.

He was very enthusiastic about llil' fashion shows and said they did much to push smaller furs that would appeal to the younger people. One thing he particularly cautioned the mini: breeders akalndb was too close scraping of lhrlr peltries, which resulted in great. loss of guard fur during the tanning process. He said if one could see the vats after some thou- sands of mink pelts had been placed in them and knew the quantities of fur shed from the prltrles they would readily see iihllt a dangerous practice close scraping is. Mr. Morrls' address was one worthy of being published in full and we hope later on to he able to give more of it.

Another interesting speaker was H L. Montgomery of Wetaskawln, Alberta, who located there when there were no roads to speak of. Just trails. and he spoke of the development of the country as it is today. Montgomerys have been breeders of silver foxes since 1914 and still continue to raise some. In the days when for pelts were the fashion they pa f some of the best that were sold. Now they are in mink quite largely, rinsing some 2,000 per year. Mr. Montgomery's son. Kenneth, is in- tprosted in several activities. iimnnff them his presidency of the Eclmoiiitovn Eskimos football team whiz-h is an occupation in itself. as it takes a small fortune to fin- anre their season's activities.

One of the highlights of the meeting was the address by Pro- mier J. R. smellwood of New- foundland. He invited mink breed- on to locate there, stating that the costs of breeding and climatic i'0hl'llil0YlH combined to make New- fminriiand the best place in all of Nmih America to raise mink: Mar- keting isnues concerning Canadian bl'l'i'l mink were touched on in impromptu talks by .7. 11. Murray, Prcsldent of Hudson's Bay Com- nanv Pilr Sales. N.Y., and Neil H. Hrndei-son. field representative of American Fur Auctions. NY. Mr. smallwood in his address said he had discussed with seven United States mink renchms who have considered the possibilities of es- tablishing ranch mink farms in his "0"N-fr. some of these men ranch in Wisconsin.

Comeback Gives Palmer U. S. Golf Ch'ship

DETROIT (AP)-Youth, grit and a late-warming putter carried Ar- iiold Palmer of Cleveland to the bath national amateur golf cham- pionship Saturday with a l-up comeback victory over tiring Rob- ert Sweeney. Behind most of the day after watching the stylish Sweeny Film in three successive puts of 20 to 38 feet on the opening holm. Palmer went ahead for the first time on the 32nd hole. Sweeney, 43, Oxford-educated. and winner of the British amateur 17 years ago, saw his impeccable game deteriorate in the afternoon apparently as the result of sheer exhaustion. Palmer. 24. son of a Latrobe. Pa., professional and now a Cleve- land salesman. won the 32nd with a four after Sweeney missed the green and then sank a. vital 10- footer on the 33rd to go two holes ahead. The 34th was halved and Pai- mei”s fickle putter failed him on the 35th, where he took three nudges from 50 feet. On the 35th Sweeney pushed his tee shot into the rough behind two trees and, desperate at this point. lashed a three-lion shot into the rough to the right of the green

He hit his third within seven feet of the pin but Palmer, mean- while. had boomed one down the mlddle of the broad fairway and had flown a four-iron shot to the green. 30 feet from home. Pal- mer putied and the ball glided uphill to within two feet of the cup. Swoeny saw it and picked up. Both were given fours.

Bweeney fired an even par '10 on the morning round to take a two-hole lead. Palmer. pressing and wild, had a 72.

Strange But True

E7 1. H. MacArthur

Insects have tormented man as long as he has occupied the earth. They have bitten and stung him. eaten his crops and what not. They have curred germs that brought him ill health and death. Yet it was not until a century ago this year that any official step was taken against bugs in this country. It was in May. 1854. that the state of New York employed a medical man. Dr. Asa Fitch. at a salary of 31.000 a year in study the bad behaving insects of the state. i I Fitch. a dedicated man of sci- ence. was relentless as a foe of harmful bugs. From his humble beginning the nations' 4,500 en- tomologists - those that study the lives. habits and control of in- sects - date the beginning of a profession that in 100 yuars has saved thousands of human lives and untold billions of dollars. The Federal government follow- ed the cue; on June 14. i854, it hired its first entomologist. Town- send Glover.

But not all insects are harmful. Some actually render valuable chores for man. Some insects de- stroy harmful insects. Othcrs de- Itroy weeds, still others. like the honey bee. pollinste crops. Nevertheless. with all his scien- tific advancement, its only by con- stant fighting that man is able to hold his precarious own against the insect hoardes.

Of the 85.000 kinds of insects in the country. 10.000 fro considered public enemies.

Many of our worst bugs have been imported. Entomologist: think the pilgrim fathers and mo- thers brought moths in their wool- ens. Bed bugs. lice. carpet beetles. house flies. mange mice. lrubs. horn flies. stable flies. stomach and nose bats.' sheep ticks. ants. cockroaches. rice weevils and larder beetles also came from a- broad.

Total damage done by insects, ln Canada and the United States in one year is estimated at 84.000.- 000. Enlomologists say the battle of the bugs will continue as long as human and insect life endures. The male of one species of toad carries eggs attached to its hind legs until they are hatched. Dogfish eggs are oblong. In some places earth worms izrow to a length or four feet. A new- born Indlan elephant is about three feet tall.

More than 2.500 species of dragonflies are known in science. Soft-shelled reptile eggs often in- crease in size after being laid. Why? Because the e in b r y o stretches til. ehsll. some kinds of ducks are unable to ay during part of me nesting season. They lone too many fea- then.

TORONTO (CP)-Bud Holscher. 23-year-old newcomer to the tour- nament golf trail from Santa Mo- nica. Calif.. came from far behind Saturday with a sizzling eight- under-par 63 to take the 55,000 top prize of the 526.500 open with a 72-hole score of 269.

In the pressure - laden fourth round Holscher putted brilliantly and didn't miss par all day. The low scorers at the 54-hole mark

Holsrher's 289 for 72 holes was 15 under par. His round scores were 69-67-'70-63. Four strokes behind him in n second-place tie at 273 were Dnug Ford of Kiamesha Lake. N. Y,. winner last year, and Dick Mayer
