From séa to sea, from the ‘interna- tional boundary to the ‘sub-Arctic; Canada will be a blaze of colour when Their Majesties, the King and Queen, pay their first sovereign visit to Their Dominion of Canada. From the tall- est buildings and the smallest homes, banners and bunting will be unfurled as Canada puts her loyalty and pat- riotism on display. The nation’s capital; the centres of population and of industry and the tiniest hamlets on the royal transcon- tirlental route are already preparing for the Royal Visit. Federal, provin- cial and municipal governments are purchasing flags by the hundreds and bunting by the thousands of yards. But equally important, and equally colorful, will be the millions of little flags that will be. held aloft in the

Provincial and municipal authorities are also planning lavish decorations, while private companies ‘and private.citizens will add their dis- {plays to the colorful picture.

This is the flag of Empire and the only official flag of the Dominion of Canada. It will therefore fly from all public buildings and predominate at all official functions. But as the beflagged nation welcomes its royal visitors it will display, along the royal route, a flag that is new to Canada and: one that is symbolic of the visit to the Dominion of a reigning mon- arch. For the period of the visit the Royal Standard of England will be- come the Royal Standard of Canada s during this time. Canada will fly a flag that can be seen nowhere else ls the world.

historic. Wolfe's Cove in Quebec, the

ancient Capital of Canada, the stand- ard will flutter down, to reappear on the flagpole of the Citadel, In Ot- tawa the blue standard of the Gov- ernor-General, with its crown of gold, will come down and the Royal Stand- ard will be hoisted as the King drives through the gates of stately Rideau Hall. When His Majesty drives to Parliament Hill the red-gold standard

will unfurl from atop the Peace Tow- |

ground. This vice-regal flag, like the Royal Standard, marks the pres- ence of the holder of the office for which ft was designed. On ship or on shore it goes where the Governor- General goes.

Canadian Government ships, or ships of the Canadian merchant ma- rine commanded by Canadian or Brit- ish naval reservists, fly the Blue En- sign wtih the Canadian coat of arms on the fly.

discovered in England by research chemists and had been brought to Canada by C.-I-L. It’s name was “Velan” and the great gonfalon rising oh the tallest. flagpole in the British Empire at the Exhibition was made of material treated with this new re- pellent. High above the heads of Exhibition crowds, with the winds and rain of Laké Ontario beating on it, this monster Union Jack remained unsullied and unmarred. Instead of the three flags usually needed during the Exhibition period, one flag suf- ficed.

“Velan” is therefore being used to treat and protect many of the flags

and much of the bunting igtended for the. Royal Visit decoratio In ad- ditién to pro g protec against

the possibility of rain, it slows up the disintegration of textile materials and will decrease the number of tattered banners which will wave greetings to the King and Queen.

The glamors of centuries of HKm- pire history, the romance of great names and great deeds and the thrill of homage paid by a free people. will surround the Royal Visit. And in the flags that will be displayed are con- tained many romances, old and new. The red, white and blue of Union Jack make gay contrast, but they also tell a fascinating story. Within the Jack are the Cross of St. George, the an- cient banner of England, the Cross of St. Andrew, the banner of Scotland, and Ireland’s Cross of St. Patrick. And each cross is displayed superim- posed on its own correct background. There is, too, a right and wrong way to fly the Union Jack. The broad white diagonal must be uppermost, next the flagstaff.

Three ensigns, the White, the Red and the Blue, originated with the divi-

|sion of the British fleets into centre,

van and rear. Each division had its admiral, vice-admiral and rear-admir- al, and in order that each ship might distinguish her own flagship, the three separate ensigns were designed. The White’ Ensign consists of the red cross of St. George on a white field with the Union flag in the upper left hand corner. Its use is confined to the British Royal or Dominion navies and its use on any other vessel brings a $2,500 fine. The Blue Ensign is con- fined to ships in the public service and the Red Ensign is for the merchant marine.

Every British Dominion except Can- ada has an authorized flag of its own and all but the flag of Hire include the Union Jack in the design. Con- sequently, during the Royal Visit, the Red Ensign, with the Canadian coat of arms, will be flown in many parts of Canada, although its use on land is improper and officially illegal. Sir John A. MacDonald first ordered the Red Ensign used as the Canadian flag and for many years it was flown over all: publie buildings in Canada. Then @ punctilious Canadian questioned the legality of its use. The Dominion Government ‘referred the question to London and was notified that the Red Ensign could not be used on land. Immediately all the Red Enaigns were ordered down from -public flagstaffs, to be replaced by Union Jacks. But the Canadian public, meanwhile, had accepted the flag as its own and it continues to fly, bravely’ but illegally, throughout the land.

Other proper and legal flags Cana- dians see less frequently. In 1938 the King, by Royal Warrant, author- ized a special flag for use by the Gov- ernor-General, a blue field with a crown in gold, centred, and beneath the word “Canada” in black on a gold

world, where, for lack of machinery or by Government decree, peasants ply the fields with bent backs and tired muscles trying to wrest a living from the soil. Such contrasts with the favored lot of Canadian farmers whose tasks have been made easier and whose productive powers have been multiplied many fold, serve to emphasize the transformation that has been wrought by the use of inestinery' in the heavy back- breaking jobs of the farm. Only by the help of modern machines is farming, on the scale and in the manner we know it, possible or profitable. Fewer people now raise the required foodstuffs of the world, while the others devote their energies fo turning every conceivable raw material into com- modities for the comfort, convenience, and pleasure of all, and provide an ever-expanding market for the products of the farm. China, for instance, grows more than twice as much wheat each year as Canada-—the average yearly production from 1931-35 being 813,000,000 bushels, although you hear little of it and it is not included in the official figures for world production, for it is a soft wheat used as a confection only and is but a handful per Chinaman. The significant fact, however, is that it takes the same man power per farm in China as in Canada, but with this difference, the average size farm in China is two acres, whereas in Western Canada it is 320 acres and that because of what machinery enables the Canadian farmer to do, and that spells the difference in the | standard of living of the Canadian farmer in contrast to that of the Chinese farmer. The progressive policy of Mamey-Horrts of anticipating the needs of the Canadian farmer and making available the latest in power equipment of greater productive ability has won for the Company an enviable reputation.

SEED CLEANING AND TREATING

_ ‘The importance of quality in seed grain is recognized by farmers today more than ever before. . One focal point» from which this interest has spread out is the Ottawa Valley, where seed grain production is a high- ly specialized part. of the agricultural programme. Now seed cleaning

plants have multiplied until they dot:

the map of eastern Ontario in* most gratifying numbers, says W. A. Mc- Kenzie, Soils Chemist, Toronto.

_ Seed production aims more and more at the achievement of higher germinating power, assured vitality and greater disease resistance. It is worthy of note here that with increas- ing precision in seed cleaning greater attention has been given to seed treatment to provide protection against disease. Good seed deserves the best of care. It is cleaned to re- move weed seeds and light grain— competitors for the energy and sub- stance needed by the plant to survive and do its best work.

It is in the cleaning plant that seed treatment can be most easily and efficiently administered. It is on clean seed that the treatment has the best opportunity to be highly effect- ive.

It was not, however, until the dis- covery of the dry mercury dust treat- ment now in use, that seed protection became so popular, Methods hither- to in vogue were not practical for use in a seed cleaning plant, nor at a time when cleaning is usually done. But with the introduction of a treatment which could be administered long be- fore sowing time the cleaning plant became the logical place to have seed treated. The adoption of the method has been rapid. Additional machin- ery required is inexpensive and the added labor slight. The seed treating unit fits into the set-up of the modern cleaning plant and becomes a part of it without causing confusion or de- creasing daily output.

There are many large Canadian grain growing sections which are as yet very inadequately supplied with seed cleaning plants. Now, fortun- ately, they are on the increase. Their importance is being more and more recognized as the economy of using better seed becomes apparent to greater numbers of grain growers. Cleaner and better seed protected as fully as possible against disease should be demsnded by all grain growers. It is largely the answer to the weed problem and .to the costly root disease and smut problem.

SEEDING SWEET CLOVER

Very few want to take undue chances in seeding down but sweet clover seedings warrant some _ risk which would not be taken with high- er-priced alfalfa seedings, states B. C. Stacey, Dominion Experimental Sub- Station, Beaverlodge, Alberta. The use of the nurse crop is quite general though in the north much stronger stands and heavier crops of the sweet clover usally result from non-nurse- crop seedings. The competition be- tween the nurse crop and the clover seedlings is keen but the former may provide some protection to the clover, particularly in windy weather and under loose-soil conditions, as noted occasionally at the Beaver Lodge Sub- | station. A firm seed bed and shal- low seeding are preferred. It is well established that sweet clover thrives on hard white soil where most other crops do poorly. ,

In 1938 a further benefit from nurse- crop seedings was evident at this Sub- Station when the 1937 non-nurse-crop seedings of sweet clover were riddled by cutworms, while nurse-crop seed- ings were scarcely touched. In seven out of eight trials of a methods-of- seeding experiment at Beaverlodge sweet clover and other forage crops caught better and gave better yields when the -meadow-crop seed was broadcast ahead of the drill. The exception was in a dry year when there were not enough showers to germinate the broadcast seed. For nurse-crop purposes wheat and bar. ley are preferred to oats, particularly if the oats grow. rank and tend to smother the clover.

_ Sweet clover should be sown inde- pendently of the grain crop and this may be accomplished by means of a separate drilling through a grass-seed of fertilizer attachment so that the clover seed is broadcast ahead of the drill discs. For this purpose remove the small delivery tubes which con- nect the fertilizer attachment to the grain drills. It is fortunate that this equipment serves the two purposes s0 admirably. When mixed with grain in.the drill box the dry clover. seed tends to sift: to the bottom but this can be overcome by soaking the seed for an hour and draining well before seeding. No benefits should be ex- pected from the soaking other than those derived from an even stand and prolonged soaking is ‘a mistake.

REDUCING THOSE HIPS!

If our hips would only keep slender, how much simpler life would be! I know that many of you yearn -to re- duce your hips, because shoals of let: ters tell me so.

These exercises will slough off fat around the hips. They’re not simple, so start easily and increase the effort as you get more supple.

Lie flat on your back, with hands clasped above your head and ankles together. Keeping heels and shoul- ders flat against the floor, roll your hips first to the left, then to the right.

Next, try this more difficult exer- cise:

Lie flat on the floor, arms at sides. Bring your knees up to your chest, keeping arms flat. Here comes the work! Kick upwards until your .legs are straight in the air, and as you kick, twist hips to the right. Main- tain this position for a few seconds, then bring your knees back to your chest, and relax, Kick up again, this time twisting hips to left.

You'll long to support your hips with your hands, but you must NOT. Keep trying and the fat will roll off those hips!’ ° . :

The World of Wheat |

Scientific experiments made at the’ Dominion Experimental Farm at) Swift Current, at the University Sai | Saskatchewan, and at other institu tions, indicate beyond question that the loss of crop, and so of grain, by weeds is enormous. It is generally | considered, I believe, that weeds alone | steal approximately 25 per cent. of the moisture that finally is deposited in the soil, and so made available for plant growth.

This all means that, on the average, the farmer loses 25 per cent. ‘of his yield per acre, hence of his income, because of the growth of weeds. It is quite obvious, therefore, that any effort made by the farmer to keep

down weeds will repay him handsome- ly for his toil.

Great surpluses of wheat for the time being abound in the world, and the price per bushel in consequence is low. This, therefore, is a good year for farmers to refrain from seeding fields this spring that are very weedy and instead of seeding, to summer- fallow them, or even to give them if necessary a double summerfallow.

This practice will kill vast quanti- ties:of weeds, and so because of less weed plants, and because of the extra moisture saved up by the summerfal- low, a good crops next year would he ensured.

Following factors have tended to raise price: Argentine corn yields disappointing—-U.S. Pacific and Aus- tralian mills work at capacity to sat. isfy domestic and Chinese demand— Further sealing: of corn in cribs on U.S. farms—tInclement weather de- lays European spring seedings—Hun- gary to denature wheat—Argentine government corn estimate. only 213 million.

This peddling and house to house. cahvassing could be controlled, it was pointed out, by local legislation, under

power conferred in the town charter. The merchants considered that they were entitled to some protection in view of the heavy taxes they pay. So much for one side of the pic- ture. What does the reverse side show? It i} common knowledge that a large number of commercial tray- ellers canvass the town every week, not only for groceries, dry goods, fruits, tobaccos, etc., commodities that have to be shipped in, but also for goods that are produced here such as flour, , bread, flowers, printing, counter check books,.etc.: What is the attitude of the merchants to- wards © these salesmen? Do they turn a deaf ear to their pleadings and support, ‘the local industries, or does fe traveller leave with a nice order? Instead of the local -producer getting @ little profit on goods he could pro- duce the traveller gets.a commission, Surely the same power conferred in the town charter to protect the loca] retailer should also protect the local industry.—Lloydminster Times.

This 15-minute address, in reply to the messages of homage and heart- felt greeting from every corner of the Empire, will conclude the most ambi- tious programme in the history of Canadian broadcasting, and wil) climax the longest series of special event reporting in all radio broad- casting.

CBC’s Empire Day programme will begin at 2.15 p.m., EDST, with a fan- fare and a military band playing “God Save the King” in full arrange- ment and modern tempo. Two an- nouncers will participate, their voices passing through an echo chamber. They will call upon the British Em- pire to pay homage to its King and Emperor, and to the Crown which, in the British Commonwealth of Na- tions, is the symbol of ever-expand- ing freedom.

When the specially written arrange- ment of “O Canada” has faded away, a Lunenburg fisherman, on the shores of the Atlantic, will be heard, assur- ing Their Majesties of the warm and hearty welcome awaiting them when the royal party reaches the Maritime proyinces in June. From Nova Sco- tid, the call will go out to Quebec, where a descendant of one of the old- est famihes in. that province will greet the sovereigns in the name of the people of French Canada. In To- ronto, an elevator boy will be heard speaking from, the Bank of Commerce Building, the tallest in the Empire. In Saskatoon, a farmer’s wife will speak for Saskatchewan from the liv- ing-room of her prairie home. A transport pilot, who flies passengers and supplies into the Far North, will broadcast his message from Edmon- ton, and, at the last port of call in the Dominion, a dock-hand in Vancouver will speak from the actual pier from! which Their Majesties will sail for Vancouver Igland.

The ‘c&il will next go out to the Do- minions beyond the seas, CBC first bringing greetings from South Africa to Their Majésties.
