14 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednasdey, Januery 20, 1960 Wheat Combines Used For Rice In Australia By RUSSELL ELMAN DOO, Australia (CP) (Canadian wheat combines are be- ing adapted in Australia's remote "top end" for use in the coun- try's first large - scale project to grow and sell rice to Asia. At the 5,500 - acre Humpty Doo rice farm near Darwin, Austral- 1an agriculturalists demonstrate how machinery designed for the Canadian prairies can be success- fully employed on the rich black earth of coastal areas of the Northern Territory only a few hundred miles south of the Equa- tor. "The majority of implements used for wheat can also be adap- ted for rice," said David Holmes, representative for the Canadian- swned Massey - Ferguson factory at Sunshine, Victoria. "At present we are studying the performance in local tropical conditions." He said combines, known in Australia as "headers," usually required special track equipment or large tires to cope with the mud in rice harvesting. They also were fitted with special drums.

Ex-Governor Praised For Intellect LONDON (CP)--Former Cana-| dian Governor - General Massey's speeches show an "astonishingly well - stocked mind, a wide range| of knowledge and a depth of per- ception unusual in philosophers and almost unheard of in gover- nors - general," says a British publication The tribute comes in a review| by The Economist, a weekly mag-| azine, of a collection of speeches hy Massey published in the book, | Speaking of Canada. The Economist says the lucid-| ity and balance of Massey's style| were already known. Now the| range of his mind had been| clearly shown. His quotations, fre-| quent without ever becoming tire- some, ranged from the memoirs of an unknown pilgrim in Europe Marks in 1840 to Mother Goose, and in-| cluded Saint - Exupery, Arnold Toynbee, Voltaire and a man who wrote to The Times a cen- tury ago to call a statesman '"'a squirt of dirty water." The magazine says Massey's 'extraordinary achievement" has heen to bring some new shaft of light to great problems. "Gently and urbanely, he pro- vokes the reader to fresh explor- ations. He neither indulges in controversy nor avoids it; he car- Plaza ing on the sparsely - populated treeless plains of the Northern Territory. It is being run by Ter- ritory Rice Limited, a private company largely backed by! American capital, which plans to export rice to Hong Kong. Humpty Doo, an old cattle sta- tion 33 miles southeast of Dar- win, was started three years ago. Today it is perhaps one of the world's largest single rice farms and in the next few years the |company hopes to expand pro- gressively up to 25,000 acres with an option of a total 500,000 acres. "We cen produce rice at a competitive price with Asian growers," said project manager John Beams during an inspection tour of the paddyfields which stretch to the horizon like prairie wheatlands. "We grow the long grain type of Chinese rice liked best in Hong Kong." population consumes 20,000 tons of rice a month 2nd could take all| of Humpty Doo's production. It was planned fo export 1,500 tons} of rice this season and perhaps {later build a rice mill in Hong| Kong itself. CANADA TOOK SHIPMENT | Beams said mechanized scient- lific agriculture would prove more economical than hand - labor fra- | ditional rice growing methods in {Asian countries. Humpty Doo | eventually would employ only two men for every 500 acres com- pared with three men to one acre {in Java or Burma. | Estimated yield would be about lone ton an acre, good by world | standards. Experimental work in Ithe area also was being carried lout by scientists of the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and In.

Ty The construction of man - made fibre makes it possible, says Verna Stenson, fashion co - ord- inator of Canadian Industries Limited. A combination of man . made and natural fibres has produced shirts, skirts, dresses, blouses and underwear that need little) or no ironing but the industry re- gards these as mere harbingers of what is to come. sorb water but sheds it like a duck's back," Miss Stenson said in an interview. "It doesn't swell and distort as natural fibres di when wet, so garments won't wrinkle even in the wash tub." On the other hand, permanent pleating cannot be washed out. "In permanent pleating, the synthetic fibre is bent under high temperature and will hold its shape when cooled. The pleats can be taken out only by expos. ing them to a temperature higher than that used to put them in and you'd hardly find that in the fam- ily washer." Textile scientists have over- Revolution Seen | In Fashion Field st; "The synthetic fibre doesn't ab- come another obstacle in fabrics.

Fashion shows have already adopted a fabrics - first theme. Several recent shows aban- doned the previous custom of her- alding style and stressed instead possible. | The commentaries went some-| thing like this: | "A child's party dress with puf- fed sleeves, intricately - pleated bodice and shirred waitband. It is 55 per cent synthetic fibre and 45 per eent natural fibre. Simply pop it into the washer, drip dry and it's ready for another outing. Do not iron -- it would only flat- pi the Shy Yuin and shirrs that ve its personality."
