Tari BA = SAME i Nn Sees BL a= » ee India's Yield Of Wheat Greater Than Canada's India Agriculturists Visit Can. . ada to Study ligation Two agricultural experts from: "yadla have arrived in Canada apd | travel from Quebec to the ratries chiefly for the purpose of tudying hydro-eleétric. power In gelation to agricultural uses, and ho systems of Irrigating arid. ar: Le. They will also inspect the big am projects In the United States. More Land Under Cultivation Western farmers need have no apprehension abouf India becoming a competitor, It may surprise Can- adlans, however, to bo foformed fhat In a good year India grows more wheat than the Dominion. We _pave come to regard ourselves as the world's granary, yet last year India produced 402,000,000 bushels t wheat, or about 55,000,000 more than Canada, The year before, the Indian yleld exceeded Canada's by 123,000,000 bushels. India has about 18,000,000 more acres under cultl + vation than this country. India Needs Her Grain For Own Peoples : Canada, with a population of 11, 500,000 must have export markets, whereas India, with a population 'ot 350,000,000 needs all her grain for hei own people. Occasionally, India has entered the export mark-- et when prices were high and good profits could be made, but present and future prospects-are that thero i)1 be no encouragement in that Irection, . The reason why hydro-electric and irrigation systems are 'being examined is because India Is sub- ect to droughts and thero is some: times sovere suffering among the natives. All that India wants is to bo self-sufficient and to feed her own people. po | Police Get Queer Request! Mrs. Frank Thissen, Ellen- dale farm mother, wrote Police Chief Frank Forestal:-- "I have six small. children. It's almost impossible to call them on a big farm. The offi- cial » basketball whistle = hasn't enough carrying power, Could I geta in but far-reach- ing, police whistle ?" The chief gent her three whis- tles and said, "take your pick."

The chemists estimate that this new compound can be manufactured for less than half the cost of the cheapest syn- thetic plastic compounds now. .on per i VITAMINS AND OLD AGE Evidence that senility and other symptoms of old age are accom- panied by typical signs of vitamin deficiency .was presented recently by Professor L. A. Cherkes, direc- tor of the Odessa Institute of Nu- trition, U.S.S.R. Experiments on animals and numerous observa-® tions on patients showed, he re- ported, that the processes taking place on teeth and bones in old age do not differ in anything from those resulting from a deficiency of vitamins in the organism. "The Cherkes to conclude that the di- tamins from food but also trans- forms a number of inactive food components into activessvitamins.
