I-I. H. Stevens. His career has been a sequence of dramatic epi- sodes. ‘rho spotlight turns on him today as it has repeatedly turned in the past quarter of a century. In a sense he is the Conservative “man of the hour.‘_’ His eloquent defence and self-vindication in the House a few days ago was a signal for uproarious applause from the majority of his own party as well as from sections of the op- position. “What is Harry Stevens heading for?" is a question on cverybodys lips. The one certainty is that his courage will carry him through: that he will neither turn hack nor be silenced. He is an old crusader --and he will see this crusade through just as he did all the others. Emigrant boy. rural school teacher, stage driver, prospector. soldier of fortune, accountant, mu- nicipal crusader, journalist, brok- er, member of parliament, minis- ter of the crown in two govern- ments, front bcncher and debater par excellence-will he round out his record with something topping them all? Colorful Career After the tempest in the House the other day which was only made to subside when Sir George Perley arose and called attention of the Speakerto the fact lltet. Mr. Stevens was out of order. UR‘- ex-mlnister having served notice that he would move the adoption of the price-spread report, slipped away for a. badly-needed and well- earned vacation. But when Par- liament resumes on May 20, it is s. safe bet that he will again be the storm-centre-that the debate concerning business abuses and him crusad- thelr reform will see ing once more with his courage and eloquence. When the drive against alleged unfair practices in business was launched by means of a. fighting address delivered to the Retail Merchants Association of Toronto on Jan. l5, 1934~the spark which resulted in the "Mass Buying and Price spreads" explosion shortly afterwards~thc central figure was a man already widely known to the Canadian public. The high- lights of his career have been these: _ Born at Bristol of Devonshire and Cornwall stock, 58 years ago. At. ‘eight years cainc to Olllflflfl with his parents. Educated at Pcterbcro schools.

Did fight-and wonl Won tho reputation later oi’ being the candidate who had never 10st a battle, a record which stood until Ian Mackenzie beat him in 1930. Thad-louse knew him for years as an industrious, sincere back- bencher. Soon won the warm friendship of Sir Robert Borden. Was keenly impressed by Arthur Mclghen, and unconsciously mod- elled his own parliamentary style after him. First crusade was against. Oriental immigration. When Meighcn came to the lead- ership he picked the member from Vancouver as his minister of trade and commerce, When ‘fieighens party was riddled at the general election of 1921, Stevens was one of the few front-benchers to sur- vive. When Melghen wanted a big job done, shortly after t-he election of i925, he knew a man who would do it for him. That man was Stevens; and the big job was the launching of an inquiry into lax practices of customs collection. Though ill and tired and badly needing a rest. Harry Stevens plowed through hundreds of files. followed clues through mazes of evidence, accumulated a telling case. 'I'he time came when Meigh- on decided the trap should be sprung, and went in search of his lieutenant. Stevens had already put on his coat and was preparing rc leave the House at 11 p.m. In those days the House sat on "far into the night." preached him, as he was leaving: said than. he wished the motion put at once. As the clock was striking midnight Stevens made his dram- atic move in the House, stirring events followed. and before vote of censure on the govcrnmsnt which followed could be reached. parliament had been dissolved as fldirect result of the crusade.

GNCE FORTUNES SOLDIER Perpetrator Oi Mass Buying Probe Has Had Colorful Career Premier Bennett that he was the first man to be offered a cabinet seat; and a. riding was opened for him in East Kootenay. - His career as minister of trade and commerce is familiar history. 5o is the amazing chain of cir- cumstances beginning with his ad- dress at Toronto-given in place of Mr. Bennett, who was away at Cnlgary-anoving along to the ap- pointment of a parliamentary committee to investigate, to the sensational disclosures wh i c h rocked. the country, the appoint- ment of a royal commission to complete the work, the publication of the famous "pamphet," the tcnsc drama. when he was request- ed to apologize for alleged inac- curacies in the pamphlet, and chose to resign rather than hack down, and so along to the hectic three-quarters of an hour in the House on the 12th of April this year. Forced Government Inquiry No one will deny that the mov- ing spirit of the price-spreads in- quiry was Mr. Stevens, Indeed, he precipitated it on the heads of luke-warm or even hostile col- leagues. So overwhelming was the flood of approbation from all over the country when he made his Toronto address that the govern- ment had no recourse but to hold the inquiry, Even wilt" he resigned from the chalrmanshq) he continued to be dominating figure. The EOO-page report, issued last week, has "Harry Stevens" writ large across its pages. Marry of the proposed re- forms were his own unaided sug- gestion. The federal trade and in- dustry commission was running through his brain many months before the writing of the report was even begun. Treating Hulless Oats for Loose Smut loose smut in lullless oats nruy be controlled-by the use of immu- lln mixed a1; the rate of one pint. of formalin to 80 gallons of water, or one ounce of formalin to five gallons of water. This solution may be applied in any way recommended for hillllfld varieties, but although a fairly good treatment, it causes some injury to germination, and the treated grain should be sown as soon as possible after treatment. Pmbaibly the most satisfactory control is obtained by the use of copper carbonate dust. a greenish powder which should not be con- fused with copper sulphate of blue- stonc. It is used at the rate of about one om1oe to ls pounds of grain. or two ounces per weighed bushel. A heaping tablespoonful of copper- carbonate dam weighs ap- proximately one ounce. The dust must be thoroughly mixed with the grain so that overly kernel will be covered with an even film of pow- der. An old barrel churn makes a. satisfactory mixer and may be im- proved by inserting mixing blades of galvanised iron. A good tight barrel may be fairly readily fitted up to serve as a miner. ions for constructing home-made mix- ers are available on application. By using the copper carbonate method the grain may be treated at any time previous to sowing, and no in- jury to germination will result. As copper carbonate dust is slightly poisonous, care should be taken to avoid inhaling it. A wet handkerchief placed over the nose and mouth is a good precaution. (A. P.
