Farmer Gels 14 More Bus. Per Acre Treating seed pays. Or does it? A Wellington County farmer, Geo. Whitelaw, started on the outside of a 20-acre field with untreated seed, last year. About halfway through he switched over and finished the . field with the same seed--but it had been treated. 0.A.C. crop scientists took 2 samples, 20 feet long from each part of the field, and compared the yields. . The result? The plot seeded with untreated grain gave 42 bushels per acre; the treated seed yielded 56 bu- shels per acre. Was it worth it? For a cost of . B0c, per care in cleaning and treating, Mr. Whitelaw obtained 14 bushels of grain worth approximately $11.60. That's a $23 return on a $1 invest- ment, ' What does Mr. Whitelaw say about the experiment? "The untreated seed looked as if "the drill had been seeding only half thick enough. His conclusion: "After seeing that, (Tl never seed without treating Poster Competition The Ontario Forestry Association has announced plans for the first national forest fire prevention poster competition" open to Grade VII and VIII pupils throughout Ontario.

Dymond, M.D., Minister of Health for Ontario, is much alarmed by certain reports which have come to the attention of the Department that concern is felt by a number of people about the pos- sibility of danger from radiation 'in the present Mass Chest Survey. The Ontario Department of Health has gone into this matter very exten- sively and very thoroughly, We have as advisers to the Tuberculosis Branch the best skilled people avail- able in this field. They include: Dr. Milton Brown, Professor of Hygiene & Public Health, University of Toronto. Dr.-C..G. Hunter, Professor of Physiological Hygiene, University of Toronto. H. E. Johns, M.A,, Ph.D,, Professor of Physics, University of Toronto. Dr. A. C. Singleton, Professor of Radiology, University of Toronto. Dr. L. Butler, Associate . Professor of Zoology, University of Toronto. Chief, i Toronto Western Hospital. Dr. H. T. McClintock, Gage Institute Chest Clinic, Toronto. In addition to these, Doctors Brink, Leppard, Sutherland and Holling, of the Department of Health Staff, are a continuing committee to keep con. stant watch over these matters. The Minister adds: "Because of the reports of con- Printed in : BOSTON, LOS ANGELES THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR AN INTERNATIONAL DAILY NEWSPAPER Interesting: Accurate Complete International News Coveroge The Christion Science Monitor 'One Norway St., Boston 15, Mass, Send your newspaper for the time | checked, Enclosed find my check or money order.

The reply I received is reproduced hereunder, and 1 believe states clearly and understandably the po- sition of the experts in the field of radiation:" To quote: "One can say that there is no evidence to indicate that chest x- rays produce any bodily damage to the adult, to the child, or to the unborn infant." = "The mobile miniature film x- ray equipment operated by the EE Cues 18 gf EY ARF EY si 1 EFI Hark N Division of Tuberculosis Preven. tion, in connection with mass surveys, is of the most modern type and constitutes no hazard insofar as the individual is con. cerned." . Dr. Dymond hopes that this forth. right statement of the experts will allay any fears that may exist in the minds of those contemplating a chest x-ray. It cannot be emphasized too strongly that this is the opinion of the best skilled people in the field. Thinking of a new Spring Suit? Ask any member of the. Port Perry Lions Club about one. 'Pr.
