Forest Fires LABOR INDICTS FOREST FIRES AS WORKER'S ENEMY Facing a season of dangerous forest fire hazards, labor organiz- ations across Canada have joined with the Canadian Forestry Asso- ciation to curb public recklessness in forest burning. Percy R. Bengough, Ottawa; President of the Trades and Labor Congress, points out that "Thous- ands of acres of our forests are destroyed by fire every year. With that destruction goes the jobs and incomes of thousands of workers and their families. Make sure vour campfire is out before you leave it. Don't throw away a Let's protect our jobs by making 1952 a nation- al record in forest fire preven- tion". The Manitoba Council of Feder- al Unions, declares that "if every worker on vacation applies com- monsense to the fire menace, other workers in sawmills and forests will gains more employment and more wages, and the depletion of our forests will he kept to a mini- mum.' President A. F. MacArthur of the Ontario Federation of Labor says: "Many millions of dollars that might have gone into the pockets of Canadian workers dis- appear each season in the smoke of forest fires. Each of us should act as self-appointed policeman when travelling.in wooded areas and practice fire prevention to the utmost degree". Speaking for the organized workers in the paper industry, Vice-President D'Aoust pledges 'whole-hearted support' in cutting down the plague of forest fires. "Our people depend on the raw material that the forest supplies", says Mr. D'Aoust, "and the con- solute safety of the forest re- As goes the home, so goes the What we want in the nation we should first of all put in our homes. For that reason the theme for the 1952 celebration of Christ- ian Family Week is "Christian Families for a Christian world."

E. Goodin, Assistant . Director of the Crops Branch, Ontdvio Department of Agriculture. He agreeg that May 24th has long been considered the "day to plant spuds", but hastens to add that this no longer holds. Two advantages may be gained by ently planting----in- creased yields and improved quality. Experiments on the relation be- tween the date" of planting cand the vield of graded potatoes harvested in- dicate that early planting really paid 'well. A difference of one month in the time of planting made an aver- age difference of about one hundred bushels per acre in the yield of No. | grade potatoes, with the earlier plunt- ing giving the top results, Quality is the second factor which makes it advantageous to plant the potato crop as soon as the land is ready. Early planting gives the crop the opportunity to, mature naturally and this leads to better quality. Late planted potatoes, harvested before maturity, bruise easily, do not stand up well in storage and have a tendency to be soggy when cooked. This, says Mr. Goodin, means they are not the type of potatoes which build a market. On the matter of quality he also emphasizes the importance of growing varieties which will be white in color and mealy in texture when cooked. Such potatoes, grown to maturity and well graded, will give good returns to the producer and maintain consumer interest in the product. Add to this the increased yield to be expected from early planting and the import- ance of this practice is obvious, ms ee GR PRI ---- Weed of the Week CANADA THISTLE "Few weeds are more common to Ontario farmers than our current weed of the week--Canada Thistle", states K. EK. Fallis, Fieldman for the Crops Branch, Ontario Department of Agri- culture. It is the most common mem- ber of that family of plant villains the thistles. Canada Thistle is a hardy perennial with underground root stems which produce a large num- ber of shoots. The vigorous green leaves with their sharp spines are also well known. Mu ¥allis points out that the purple flower ripens to form the downy air borne seeds which are responsible for much of the spread of this costly weed. Mr. Fallis suggests that the first step in control is {o prevent the seed from ripening. in pastures, lanes ed by mowing the plants during late June and early July, when they are at the early bloom stage. However, he adds that this will not control the established plants, whose. strong root system will need tearing up. Early after harvest cultivation is effective on these rootstalks which are similiar to those of sow thistle. To control Canada Thistle in grain corps or corn, where no clover is seed- 2-4,D be used at the rate of 8 oz. per acre. This will stunt the growth of the weed, and prevent seed from form- ing. This application 'is most ef- fective when the grain is about 6" high, and will prevent further spread of the weed. This will not kill" the roots but this can be accomplished by after harvest cultivation. Indeed, Mr. Fallis emphasized that the extensive root system of Canada Thistle, and its habit of sending up new rootstalks, makes persistence in these control measures over several eradicated. It can be thinned out considerably in one year, but unless this is followed up in succeeding years it will re-establish itself and soon be- come as big a problem as ever. ------------ Although the family is the smallest of social institutions it" occupies first rank in importance. - It is the primary unit in every civilized community; it is the first place of instruction in' matters spiritual and .material; it is the most closely-knit centre of social activity; it is the basic buying unit; and it is the stage upon which are played out the greatest joys and sor- rows of human life. Improvement of family living is not merely sentimen- tal, it is a necessary item for the smooth-running community, the sound nation and the vitality of deniocracy. ed down, Mr. Fallis recommends ha Rk years necessary, if the weed is to be in 1941. of BE $5 iv : Aa ab Rae Sa well *» - " Et eae a "hb Eat DM PIE Sy Saabs TR a -- PE Ue iy sama F.
