Couch Grass Eradication Couch grass is probably the most. ‘prevalent and lllOall pernlcnus weed in Eastern Canada. It is a per- ennial, prcpiglited to some exlent by seed but more especially by un- derground root stalks, and is coli- seqiiently exticiiiely dlfilcult to er- adicate. Few peeple realize the en- ormous quantity; of couch gross root stalks which may be found in the soil. According to investigations conducted at the Central Experi- mental Farm at Ottawa, the weight of roots has ranged from 1,531 pounds t; 6,997 pounds per acre. This weight is equal to that of a very heavy crop of hay and hclps to erplaln why it is so dlfllcult to remove or kill all the roots. A book- let on the subject has been prepar- ed by Dr. E, S. Hopklns,»D:minion Field Husbandman and is issued by the Dominion Department of Agri- culture, Ottawa, to those who desire it. In it the eradication of couch grass is thoroughly dealt with, ‘the principles underlying the methods ‘of attack and the methods of erad- icatizn themselves being explained in detail. as for example (l) re- moving the roots from the soil by cultivating and drawing 0i‘! the field; (2) starving the plant by re- moval of top growth; (3) smother- ing the growth of the weed by a smother Crop; <4» drying the root-s on the surface of the soil. and (5) using chemicals to kill the plant. Ineffective methods are also des- cribed. Civic Holiday Is WidelyiHeld (By the Canadian Preu) Thousands of Canadians in On- tario and Western Canada today observe civic holidays-originated in Toronto 66 years ago. While modes of transportation have changed, Canadian citizens will celebrate the holiday in time- honorccl fashion, picnics, sports. and a quiet day at home. Records reveal a Toronto city council meeting on Aug. 6. 1869. de- cided a day of recreation was nec- essary in August and set aside Wednesday, Aug. 18. as a public holiday. But the decision did not meet. with unanimous approval. One mer- chant protested on the grounds idleness should not be encouraged. He argued against additional holl- days, stating two years before (Con- federation year) a hbliday had been created by setting aside July 1 as Dominion Day. The majority of citizens failed to agree with the merchant, records showing the first civic holiday was enthusiasti- cally observed. Up to i875 the August holiday was proclaimed according to the decision cf the city council. In that year the council fixed the first Monday in August as the civic holi- day and the ruling has been fol- lowed since. Other cltl°s in Ontario not to be outdone by Toronto adopted the ideo. and today a. large number of cities celebrate civic holiday but not all on the first Monday of the month. The movement spread to Western Canada-uni about 20 years ago Winnipeg inaugurated the holiday on the first Monday in August with Edmonton following after the War. saskatoon and Cal- gary have half holidays. the Sas- katchewan clty in observance of Fair Day and the Alberta centre on Stampede Day. The holiday, however. is not cele- brated in Quebec, the Marltimes or British C lumbia. Foxes and crows have been re- sponsible for loci recently among young turkeys in some sections o!

Unique Service Attracts Crowds (Canadian Press) SUSSEX, N.B.. Aug. 6—Tl'le flit-h annual memorial service for de- ceased members of former congre- gations has been held m old 9t. Paul's Church at Londonderry, and another year will elapse before worshippers again gather in the little structure. Ven. Archdeacon l-LA. Cody, Saint John. preached at the last service amid a scene in sharp contrast with that of B0 yea-re 880. when the church was established in the heath of a thriving country community. Cars blocked the road once trod by oxen. Silks and fine serges were in the seat-s of pews first worn smooth by homespun. The old farms and home-steeds have long been aband- oned, and the nearest house is now five miles from where St. Paul's steeple rises above the trees. "As in that instance when Mary anointed our Saviors feet with precious oil. there is no waste." said Archdeacon Cody. “Although the congregation is gone and their dee- cendlmts scattered far and wide. the infiuence of this old church is widespread also." The church was a. dividing lino between things of the past and the present.

OF lNDlA'S MILLIONS ENGAGED IN FARMING Over 80 per cent of India's 350.- 000,000 inhabitants are engaged in agriculture. The industry, however, is in some ways centuries behind modern practice despite efforts made by vrllous governmental agri- cultural departments. Recently dem- onstrations were put on in tractor plowing, according to the Agricul- tural Department of the Canadian National Railways. Plouphing is. generally carried on means of bollocks and it is estim- ated one tractor will displace from eight to ten pairs of these animals. Them is a great loss in India from weeds. vast tracts of land being un- cultivated and undeveloped due to the impossibility of plowing by the use of ordinary bullock methods. which turns a. furrow not more than 6 to 7 inches deep. It is felt that with fewer bullock: employed room will be left for improvement in cattle stock.
