Dear Dad—
No mail of late, but expecting
parcels and letters soon. You may
wonder at my mentioning mail so
persistently in my letters. The big
] reason is that mail is one of the
highlights of a very monotonous ex
istence. I am back in “Stalga”
again after two months on the farm
but will probably be sent out again
in a few days. Many of my old pals
arc here that I have not seen for
19 months, some of them having
been in other camps. Bill Peakes,
> whom you will remember I made en
quiries about Lome time ago, is here
now. Fred Corbett is still in another
r camp but may be sent here later.
. We have done very little work on

. still persists, although I had one day
! behind a gang plough and a few days
harrowing. To-day, Good Friday, is
;fine and warm for a change. Bill L.

potatoes and green t-peas from his
own garden.
While many local gardeners have
been giving the peas the watchful
eye with the hope of green peas by

and therefore unless the list is
smaller by the next regular meeting
it would be necessary for authoriza
tion to be given by council at the
July meeting.
Councillor II. T. Bower agreed
with Councillor Morrison that unless
some of the arrearages are cleared
up a sale will be necessary.
On motion of Councillors H. T.
Bower and C. W. Riley, a number of
accounts were ordered paid and Miss
Horsman was instructed to attend
the convention of Assessing Officers
to be held in Toronto June 21-23.
Councillor Riley presented a report
he had received from the Public Util
ities Commission "regarding the cost
of putting in water mains to Oxford
Avenue residents. To supply six inch
main with no dead ends and hydrants
528 feet apart would cost $9,945.75.
This could be paid for either on the
local improvement plan or through
the commission by debentures. - The
debenture issue under either plan
would require to be approved by the
Municipal Board. As laborers are
not obtainable at this time, it was
suggested that the work be under
taken as a post-war .project.
Councillor Preston spoke in favor
of getting on with the job and sug
gested if laborers are scarce it might
be possible to put a ditching machine
on jthe job and possibly get a co
operative plan working with the Gas
Company and the town to drain the
roadway as well as lay water mains.
He felt that there are good homes
and good citizens in that district
that would be built up still mere if
the fire protection and water service
is provided.
On motion of Councillors Riley
and Preston, a committee composed
of Councillors Morrison, Murray
and Bower, will investigate the possi
bilities of installing water service on
Oxford Avenue and report back to
I An affair unique in educational
> circles was held on Tuesday evening
when the Board of Education
i arranged a get-together for the
i teachers and members of the board
and their wives. Originally planned
as an outdoor picnic to be held at
Memorial Park, weather conditions
changed the situation to Memorial
School.
About 65 sat down to a delicious
lunch served under the direction of
Trustee R. B. Bigham. Chairman
Thomas E. Jackson welcomed the
teachers and guests. He suggested
that a happy family was one of the
highest ideals of life and felt that
the group of teachers with the
members could form just such a
gathering. Mr. Jackson expressed
pleasure at the fact of the teaching
staff having no changes and hoped
for a continuance of the happy re
lationship that is in evidence.
Miss Margaret Lewis of Wood
stock, presented a number of very
fine accordian selections and accom
panied for some community songs
led by Miss Ruth Cuthbertson.
At the head table were Chairman
of the Board of Education, Thos.
E. Jackson and Mrs. Jackson, Vice-
Chairman A. Yule and Mrs. Yule,

identify themselves, name the class
taught and the approximate ages of
their pupils. The guests were intro
duced by Chairman Jackson.
Short address were given during
the evening by Inspector Hyde,
Secretary J. J. McLeod, Principal
Brogden and Principal Murray.

The large circle of friends of
Lawrence W. Owen, eon of Mr. and
Mrs. Boy Owen, Thames street
north, will be greatly interested in
the following account of his ordin
ation to the priesthood of the Chureh
of England, on April 23rd, while ser
ving as sergeant in the Canadian
Army in England, as taken from an
Arundel, (England), daily news
paper:
“The parish ehurch was the scene
of a memorable service last Sunday
morning when the Bishop of Chi
chester ordained to the priesthood
the Rev, L. W. Owen, a sergaent in
the Canadian Army who had been
ordained to the deaconate in Canada
by the Bishop of Huron. The church
provided a beautfiul setting for such
an occasion and there was a good
congregation which included the
Duchess of Norfolk, Mrs. Bell and
Mr. Owen of North Creake, Norfolk,
uncle of the ordinand. The Bishop
was attended by his domestic chap
lain, the Rev. D. L. Cooper, and the
other visiting clergy present were
Col. the Rev. Taylor, senior Anglican
Canadian chaplain in this country;
Major the Rev. L. J. Sinn* man and
Canpn R. W. D. Lee, (vicar of Hors
ham).
The bishop and clergy who had
robed at the vicarage, were met at
the entrance to the churchyard by
the church wardens, choir and ser
vers and the procession entered the
church by the west door to the sing
ing of the hymn, “Thy Hand 0 God
has guided Thy flock from age to
age.” The Litany and the Eucharist,
the music of which was by Martin
Shaw, were beautifully sung, Schu
bert’s “Holy, Holy, Holy”, being
sung as an introit .and Psalm 23 as
the gradual. The unaccompanied
singing of "these together with the
Litany, maintained the high standard
which has been reached under the
skilled supervision and care of Mr.
Shelly, the organist and choirmaster
whose work at the organ helped
much to make the service the im
pressive offering of worship that it
was. The sermon was preached by
Canon Lee, after which the ordinand
was presented to the Bishop by the
Rev. L. J. Sinnaman. The Vicar of
Arundel read the epistle and the
senior Canadian chaplain, the gospel.
At the solemn laying on of hands by
the Bishop, all the priests present
assisted in accordance with the Eng
lish rite, after which the Bishop
proceeded with the celebration of
the Eucharist The newly-ordained
priest will become a chaplain to the
Canadian forces.

of the evil* of inflation in China. A
50c meal in Canada would cost $125

set you back $800 or $900 thtre;
while a cleaning woman that would

Lightning Destroyed
Barn Sunday Night
The medium sized barn on the
property of John Wilson was des
troyed by fire Sunday night during
the electrical storm. The farm is
about a mile west of Hagle's Com
ers on the town line between West
Oxford and Dereham.
In the barn were a milking mach
ine, set of sleighs, a pumber of hens
and other articles.
. The fire was first noticed about
11 o’clock, and the barn*was quickly
destroyed. The loss is partly covered
by insurance.
It has been estimated that one ur-
in house holder in every seven in
snada had a wartime garden in
1943. The 209,200 urban gardens in
1943 represents a 15 per cent in
crease over gardens planted in 1942,
and about 24 per cent more than in
1940.

THE BANK OF MONTREAL?/
I t is not by chance that the Bank has a million satisfied depositors,
besides thousands of other friends who use its services in various ways.
There are substantial reasons, chief of which, we believe, are as follows:
First, Confidence. Canadians o f every occupation—farmers, labourers,
mechanics, office workers, home workers, business managers and
Clerks, corporation executives, professional men and women—be
lieve in the Bank, because of its history and traditions, its strength
and its known service to the nation.
Second, Experience. These Canadians know, by personal experience
in dealings with the Bank, they can rely on it—come good times
or bad, peace or war—for the kind of banking service they need.
Third, Modem Methods. Due to our modem methods, a spirit of
helpfulness, and the practical efficiency of our staff, customers find
it pleasant to transact business at the Bank, whether it be at the
Head Office, one of our large dry branches, or the smallest branch
in the smallest town.
If you are not a customer of the Bank, you are invited to become one.

PLEA FOR AID
A member has made a strong plea
in the House of Commons in Ottawa
that the Government should do more
to stimulate activities amongst sugar
beet growers in this country. He
argued that more encouragement to
sugar beet growing was being given
in the United States, that extension
of thia industry in Canada would
provide in time more jobs for re
turned men as well as more revenue
for farmers, and that, if the six
sugar beet refineries in Ontario,
Quebec, Alberta and Manitoba
would work at full capacity this year,
they might be able to produce
290,000,000 pounds of sugar so that
an important source of sugar supply
for the United Nations could be pro
vided, pointing out at the same time
that the world reserve had fallen
down from 3,000,000 tons in 1942
to 1,000,000 tons in 1944.

PARLIAMENT and PROGRESS
While it is still premature at this
time to surmise exactly what react
ions may result in a final way from
the latest developments of the war
since the opening of the new West
ern Front, yet it is most interesting
to observe that by coincidence there
has been a marked anxiety to make
more rapid progress in the work of
this session lately, with a serious
effort having been made in Parlia
ment already by Prime Minister Mac
kenzie King in order to urge once
again greater speed in the rate of
progress in the proceedings. He said
in part: "I would be the last to im
pose any restraint upon the utterance
of anyone but I am confident that
the feeling throughout Canada is
that to-day we have reached the most
serious moment in the history of the
world and that it is part of our obli
gation to human society to avoid
irrelevancies as much as possible.”
COST OF HANDLING
The chartered banks of this country
handle the rations coupons on a cost
basis and the Federal Government
is paying between $55,000 and
$65,000 a month. This has been re
vealed in Parliament by Douglas Ab
bott. Parliamentary Assistant to the
Minister of Finance, Hon. J. L.
Haley.

Though up to the time of the re
port there had been relatively few
requests for vocational training on
the part pf veterans of the armed
services and no large number of
such demands for training was ex
pected until general mobilization,
yet it has been reported in Ottawa
that extensive plans are being
created for giving such proper voca
tional training to veterans after
mobilization. This has been revealed
amongst other things in the annual
report tabled in Parliament by the
Minister of Labor, Hon. Humphrey
MULTIPLICATION OF PARTIES
Premier Mackenzie King does not
favour a political situation in this
country which would encourage the
multiplication of political parties in
Parliament He has indicated this
opinion during a discussion in the
House of Commons when the Prime
Minister said: “My own belief is
that there should ’be simply one gov
ernment and one opposition. I think
it is a mistake having the House
divided into the Government and its
supporters and three or four oppos
itions so that each time one of that
number speaks the other three feel
that they must also put in their oar
and say something.”
NEW CANADIANS
The Secretary of State for Can
ada, Hon. Norman McLarty, has re
ported in Parliament that 62,188 per
sons have been naturalized as citizens
in this country since the beginning
of World War II and these have in
cluded 3,349 Austrians, 1,312 Ger
mans, 2,155 Italians and 105 Jap-
GAINFUL WORK
The latest disclosure in Ottawa
has shown that there were no less
than 4,288,000 persons gainfully em
ployed in Canada on December 1,
1943, in addition to 769,0000 per
sons in the armed services, with this
inferring that 57 per cent of Can
ada’s total population of 14 yean
of age or older were engaged in
gainful work. Moreover it was also
disclosed at the same time that the
number of women engaged in such
work had increased in an amazing
manner from 638,000 in 1939 to
1,075,000 in October, 1943.
FREE PUBLICITY
jlO fts been stated officially in the
House of Commons in Ottawa that
last year the estimates for publicity
on salvage collection was $250,000,
but only $38,000 was spent as many
firms-had given this drive free pub
licity so that a large sum of money
was saved. It was also made known
that there was a severe shortage of
waste paper, that some paper mills
might possibly be forced to close
down under certain circumstances on
dtcount of this shortage, and thattjpout 1800 voluntary committees
were working now on salvage.

In a Western town close to a res

dollars to the local supply house.
The proprietor thanked him for the
money, but the Indian stood with
arms folded, evidently waiting for
something else. The proprietor natur

.wanted:
“Waiting for a receipt.”
“What do you want a receipt for?”

afraid that I will ask you for the
money a second time?”
The Indian shrugged his shoulders
and said: “When I go to meet the
great Father Saint Fetor,- he will
want me to show receipt for 50 dol
lars which I paid you before I can
enter heaven. I want to show receipt
when I come to'the gate, I don’t
want to hunt all over hell Jo find

centenary
Major Beaton traced the story of
the foundation of the "T" in its
humble beginnings in London, Eng-
land. June «, IM-4. He said it would
be forever associated in the hearts
and minds of all loyal citizens that
i erectly 104 year® later, June 6,
1944, the young men of the home
forces, the Canadian Army, Navy,
and Air Force, were making one of
the most momentous marks in the
history of the world, when the con
tinent of Europe was invaded. He
said the greatest calamity ip history
was possibly the present destructive
war now in its fifth year.
The local “Y” was organized in
June, 1929, as the Ingersoll Tri
angle Club with J. E. Gayfer, the
first president in 1930-31. Herbert
Handley was the General Secretary
for 1930-37, followed by L. M.
Sommer, 1937-40, and the present
secretary is James E. West.
Personal appreciation of the
Y.M.C.A. services when he was in
Active Senice in the First Great
War, was expressed by Rev. R. H.
Parr. He paid high tribute to the
work of the local “Y” secretary,
James E. West, and spoke of the
war service work of a former local
“Y” secretary, L. M. Sommer. He
said Ingersoll was wholly behind
the “Y” fenterprise.
The concert given by members
of the Y’s Men’s Boys' Band, al
though interrupted by rain and
which had to be curtailed because
of cramped quarters due to the
necessity of the boys being seated
on the grandstand instead of on the
platform, was nevertheless thor
oughly eqjoyed and appreciated.
Under the direction of Bandmaster
A. C. Robinson, the band gave an
excellent programme of marches,
overtures and hymn tune®. A very
pleasing feature was the presenta
tion of the march, “On Guard”, by
the band members, under the direc
tion of one of the young boys,
James Miller. This was arranged
as a surprise offering by Bandmas
ter Robinson and was greeted with
genuine applause from the large
audience.

School Board and Teachers
Elliott Clan Reunion
(Continued from page 1)
largest by population in Canada,
with 5000 Indians on a reserve about
10 miles long and 7 miles wide.
Eleven day schools are operated on
reserve with all native teachers who
give excellent service. Education on
the reserve was cited as being one
of the largest jobs.
The Indian has many distinctive
traits and on the reserve there are
about 800 inhabitants who still be
lieve in and practice the pagan rites
of the early Indian.
A number of pieces of Indian lore
were exhibited, a medicine man mask
was minutely explained. The musical
instruments of the tribe, a tom tom,
a turtle shell rattle and buffalo horn
rattle were shown and demonstrat
ed. Samples of primitive Indian
money, wampum beads and a wam
pum belt that had been passed down
to the speaker by a bachelor uncle,
were especially interesting.
The origin of the Six Nations
was the amalgamation of six tribes
of Indians from the Mohawk Valley,
organized by a young man named
Hiawatha. This tribe has function
ed now for nearly 400 years.
Jn 1924 the sytstem of govern
ment on the reserve was changed
and a new era supporting education
was ushered in. The change brought
about some dissatisfaction and now
the R.C.M-P. are located on the re
serve to preserve order. This is a
thing that was not necessary under
the rule of the old Indian council.
Some silver brooches made by In
dians and some Indian weapons were
shown, the medicine grinders, a bow
and arrow, made of rock elm, a tom
ahawk used in the actual fighting of
1812, a stone axe, and a war club
brought the speakers’ listeners a
vivid portrayal of the Indian cus
toms of other days.
The speaker closed his address
by the reciting of Pauline Johnson’s
poem, “The Cattle Thief.” ■A vote of thanks was extenled to
the speaker by Secretary J. J. Mc
Leod and Mr. Jackson. The gathering
closed with the singing of “Alou-
etto”, led by Miss Edna Kennedy,
of the Collegiate staff and the
National Anthem.

It is possible that what seems like
lack of appreciation is but the accept
ance, without question or comment,
of the commonplace, and what more
commonplace than the arrival and
manifestation of Spring. It has been
returning to earth every year since
the beginning of the earth, and long
before the arrival of man, who is the
one creature so constituted thatjic
might marvel and adore the Maker
of it.Even the most witless of us do
that on occasion, for, with or without
active thought, we must rejoice at
renewal. The wild things of the earth
do that, preparing with apparent joy
the advent of a new generation of
their kind. Can we watch the birds
in their busy flight and hear their
gay songs and not believe that they
rejoice to be alive, and to live life
to the full of their capacity?
Who can live where even one
tree or shrub puis forth its new
green shoots, or where tender green
blades of grass spring up from last
year’s brown stubble, and not have
his heart a little uplifted. Yet it is
so common a thing, a miracle per
formed and multiplied so many mil
lions of times that it is apt to be
overlooked. A caption on a notice
board in front of a city church re
cently caught my eye and my fancy.
It read: “If Spring arrived but once
in a hundred years men would kneel
in adoration of its creator. And so
we should. But its unfailing repeti
tion every year, the beauty and
wonder of it evidenced in every
comer of the earth, cannot make the
miracle less a miracle. It merely
makes of it a commonplace of na
ture, and is too often accepted as
such. Yet we are rash if we do no
more than that, for it, like the most
beautiful of our gifts, was given
freely that we might deeply enjoy.
It was given by a Wisdom that de
signed an eye that. would develop
from a single-celled organ into the
marvellous structure it now is, able
to distinguish a thousand shades of
color, able to discern the most min
ute and yet equally capable of taking
in a whole panorama, so that we can
lift our eyes from rapt contempla
tion of the first crocus or snowdrop,
and comprehend at a sweep the
whole countryside awakening to new
life. Yes, Spring is a commonplace
but also it is a profound miracle.
the milk decolourizes.
One objection to the use of the
methylene blue test is that as the
quality of a milk supply improves,
the time required to complete the
test stretches to the point where it
runs far beyond the ordinary work
ing hours. Consequently there has
been increasing interest in a test
which would yield similar informa
tion in much less time. Such a test
Ims been found. It makes use of a
dye called resazurin, which gradually
changes from the original blue shade
through various shades of purple
and mauve to pink and finally de
colourizes. Because of this gradual
change in colour, the presence of
large numbers of bacteria can be
detected much earlier than in case
of methylene blue. Resazurin has
another advantage in its ability to
reflect the presence of such “ab
normal milk as colostrum, late lacta
tion milk and milk from cows suffer
ing from mastitis, thus giving a bet
ter indication of sanitary quality in
the wider sense of the word.

Ottawa—The appointment of Dr.
Harrison F. Lewi* to the position of
Superintendent of Wildlife Protect
in the I Lands, Parks and Forest*
Branch, of the Department of Mines
and Resources, has been announced
by the Minister, Honourable T. A.
Crerar. Dr. Lewis succeeds Hoyes
Lloyd who resigned at the end of
1043 after 25 years’ service.
The importance of Canada’s wild
life resources and the part that they
might play in the post-war years is
well recognized, and Dr. Lewis’
training and background particularly
fit him for a position of such great
possibilities and responsibilities. In
his boyhood days in Nova Scotia he
manifested a strong interest in
wildlife, an interest which was later
developed in the more formal chan
nels of science at Acadia University,
where he obtained a B.A degree in
1917. In 1926 he received the de
gree of M.A. from the University of
Toronto, and in 1929 the Ph.D. de
gree from Cornell University. Since
1921 Dr. Lewis has served as Chief
Federal Migratory Bird Officer for
Ontario and Quebec. In that time he
has increased his proficiency in the
ing out efficiently his duties in connection with the administration ofthe Migratory Bird* Convention Aet.He is a Fellow of the American Ornithologist* Union and I* activelyassociated with a number of Canadian organization* interested in th*preservation of wildlife.Th* extent and national Import
ance of Canada's wildlife resource*
are not sufficiently well known. Over
an area of more than 50% of Can
ada's territory wildlife resource* are
the principal support of human population. Over an area of al^ut
560,000 square, miles primarily ami-
cultural, wildlife is an important’Re
source; while on Canadian land prim
arily forest-producing, amounting
to about one million square miles,
wildlife, though a subordinate re
source is relatively more productive
than on agricultural land.
The most recent estimate of the
practical value of wildlife in Canada
shows an annual harvest calculated
at >22,714,000, the principal item
being fur. The possibility of greater
wild fur development as part of Can
ada’s post-war reconstruction pro
gramme was recently presented in_a
brief to the Parliamentary Commit
tee on Reconstruction and Re-estab
lishment under the chairmanship of
of Mr. Gray Turgeon. It is evident
that in a country with the distribu
tion of land quality that Canada
possesses, wildlife resources hold a
place of special national importance.
Since thepe living resources, if cor
rectly treated, are self-producing and
inexhaustible, their importance
should not be permitted to diminish.
There is no doubt that by wise and
proper treatment that importance
can be greatly augmented.
That is why the position of Super
intendent of Wildlife Protection
assumes such an important role at
this time in the history of Canada.
Dr. Lewis is a strong supporter
of wildlife management and is the
author of more than 200 papers onwild birds iknd mammals. He brings
to his task the training, experience
and enthsuiasm necessary to insure

Resazurin Test For
Milk Quality
(Science Service News)
There are now few areas in Can
ada which do not have a milk sup
ply than was current twenty years
ago. Much of this improvement can
be attributed to two things; first,
research which has pointed out the
importance of bacterial contamin
ation from unsterilized utensils, and
second, to the development and use
of simple bacteriological tests for
milk quality^ One of these, the
methylene blue test, has been widely
used in Canada by health depart
ments and milk plants. In this test,
a small amount of the dyo methy
lene blue is added to the milk. The
bacteria growing in the milk when
incubated at. body temperature cause
the blue foloar to disappear; the
mote bacteria present, the sooner

Factors In High DwthRate in PoultryI Experimental Fans News)The rapid *x|>*ftstori that has occurred In the poultry industry inrecent years has brought with it anincrease in the death rate thatthreatens to become out of proportion to the increase in number of
birds raised. In the rearing o^young
stock the loss has been more gener
ally evident, says W. T. Scott, Head
Poultryman, Dominion Experimental
Farm, Harrow, Ont.
It would be hard to aay what
single agent has been mostly respon
sible for the higher death rate but
more often than not the root of the
trouble may be traced to one or
more of the following agents; infer
ior or diseased parent stock, errors
in feeding, poor and inadequate
equipment, overcrowding of bouse or
range, or the use of parasite infected
range and buildings.
Probably the major factors snd
those hardest to trace and correct
are poor breeding and errors tn
feeding. The unusual demand for
more eggs for hatching to provide
for more poultry has had a tendency
to reduce the standard of selection,
and the use of eggs laid by inferior
stock will without doubt take a heav
ier toll.
Another hazard that is not gener
ally considered seriously, but never
theless prevails in greater degree
when the demand for increased pro
duction exists, is the intermixing of
chicks or adults birds from various
sources. Carriers of disease that ap
pear to be healthy themselves are
often a source of infection when
brought in contact with new surroun
dings anf strange flocks.
With regard to feeding, probably
the principal mistake is the ten
dency to economize by adulterating
a reliable balanced ration with addi
tional grain both ground and whole.
Under ideal conditions of unlimited
range the danger is not so great but
generally there exists tbe possibilityof depriving the birds of certainMsafttials to growth and health and>o reducing resistance to disease thattbe birds become easy victims inafter lifeWith modern equipment, the danger from accidental chilling, overheating, poor ventilation, and similar causss that may lead to a highermortality, is not so great if only com
mon sense is applied.
If vigilance is not exercised in the
major factors of breeding and feed
ing, then the lorn may prove disas
trous.

The act appliesto industrial undertakings, but ap
parently an industrial undertaking.
any undertaking which the Provincial
Industry and Labor Board designates
as such. Although the regulation* are
not yet available to the public, it ia
understood on good authority that
retail and wholesale trade will be in
dustrial undertakings as much as
manufacturing.
Principal provisions of the act are
to limit working hours of employees
to eight Hours in one day and forty
eight in a week, and to give every
employee “a vacation of at least one
week with pay for every working
year of his employment.” It seems
possible that the word, “for,” in the
clause just quoted should have been
“during”, but it is recognized that
courts are bound by the letter of a
statute. The legal rights of employees
with forty years’ service to forty
week’s vacation with pay, aie plea?
ant to contemplate from their point
of view.
Except in the case of war indus
tries, for which special exemptions
may be made, and in the case of em
ergencies in other undertakings, no
provision seems to be made for over
time. Perhaps the regulations will
exempt farm operations from the
the eight-hour-day limitation. Most
farmers think that eight hours is
merey a good start on the day’s
work and they require their hired
men to subscribe to the same idea.
Yet why should there be discrim-
glad of the sixteen hours for recreation end steep provided by law forother employees. With the normalfarm working day, his rest periodwould thus begin early in the afternoon, His employer would have to
look after the evening choree himself
unless he was prepared to pay a $25
fine. The practical alternative would
be to employ two hired men and
work them in eight-hour shifts, but
the cost of this procedure would be
justifiable only when prices of farm
products were unusually high.
It is to be feared that the farm
hand is out of luck as far a* this
legislation i* concerned. Members
from rural constituencies, who form
a majority in all Canadian legisla
tures, are not going to place obvious
burdens on the beck of agriculture.

new and old, are becoming more im
portant and in recent years they
have helped in offsetting protein
shortage in feeds and nitrogen
shortage in fertilizers.
When war necessity . demanded
more home-produced vegetable oils,
soybeans stood ready. When nitro
gen which used to figure heavily in
fertilizers was diverted to war ex
plosives, it became the role of le
gume crops to 'supply soils with
sufficient nitrogen from the air.
Legumes also increase the yield
and value of hay crops and pastures,
which in turn result in more beef
and milk so vitally necessary for
food.
Alfalfa is one of the most popu
lar hay and pasture legumes where
the soil and climatic conditions are
favourable for its growth. It is
very nutritious and outyields most
other perennial grasses and le
gumes. In extensive pasture tests
conducted by the Division of For
age Plants, Central Experimental
Farm, Ottawa, says F. W. Nowosad,
alfalfa has yielded approximately
four times as muc^ per acre as
Kentucky bluegrass; three times as
much as timothy or red top; twice
as much as the best strains of white
clover (except Ladino) and about
57 per cent higher than the stand
ard farmers mixture of timothy,
red clover and alsike. Apart ffom
the increaserin yield due to alfalfa,
there is also the fact that this le
gume remains productive over a
longer season than any other grass
or legume species used for pasture.
It remains productive during the
spring and also in July, August and
September when other species are
usually unproductive.
In production of hay, alfalfa
leads all other species of perennial
grasses .and legumes. It outyielded
timothy by almost 50 per cent and
fed cloyur by about 30 per cent.
. Other legumes such as red clover,
alsike, sweet clover and Lsdirio in
hay and hay-pasture fixtures or
white clover and Ladino in straight
pasture mixtures it extremely im
portant in increasing the yield and
quality over any single grass or
combination of grasses.
In pasture experiments the addi
