= Dormancy Period

‘Experiments with potatoes now untlerway at the Experimental Farm in Morden, Manitoba, have to do with the length of the period of dormancy which potatoes’ undergo. The 9b- vious aim is to lengthen or, control the dormancy period.

The length of the dormancy per- lod controls the storage period, it-is explained by the research scientist.

“In theory the dormancy period

could be extended until the potatoes:

were several years old. Probably no- body wants to do that,.but- the gen- eral idea would to extend the per- iod so that the “old potatoes,” so called, would retain their texture and their most inviting taste beyond the

period when housewives are awaiting -

the arrival of new potatoes each sum- mer.

Not enough is known yet about dormancy to control this factor, it is freely admitted by Morden farm sup- erintendent, Dr. M. Kawase.

~ Modification: of growing cond i-

tions, however, has been found to ef- fect dormancy. They have produced potatoes bv two methods, and in two different field locations at the Mor- _den farm. One lot was grown under normal daylight conditions while the’ second’ one was exposed fo the light ‘from incandescent lamps for two-hours every night from June un- tit harvest.time. : = It developed that the tubers ex- ‘posed to artificial light are much stower in sprouting than those ‘frei plants grown under natural light conditions. So it is deduced that light is an important factor in Further stud- ieS are now underway in an effort to learn why this reaction occurs.

The idea in the case of oats, how- ever. is much different. The goal istto have a strain of oats that canbe sown in the: autumn and. will not

Stevenson's. Successor

When President Johnson picked Associate Justice Arthur J. Goldberg of the Supreme Court to succeed Adlai Stevenson as American am- bassador, at fhe United Nations, invited. him to make a_ personal sacrifice which few men in high of- fice are-called upon to make. With a lifetime tenure and a $39,500. sal- ary, Mr. Justice Goldberg was willing Ambassador — with a $9,500 cut in pay and serving at the President's will. His prompt

acteptance has puzzled some Wash-

ington commentators; but one does not need given by the ambassador-elect him- self—“President—Johnson,”’-he_.told newsmen in a brief interview, “said the call of duty is in the direction of this post at this time:* ~We like to think that this statement bespeaks- the measure of the man.

Like Mr. Stevenson, Mr. Goldberg is one of America’s. best-known. lib- eral figures.. JIle was the top counsel in a big labor union dispute when he was picked by President Kennedy to become Secfetary of Labor in 1960, prior to his appointment to the Sup- reme Court. He came up the hard way, the son of Jewish immigrants

~in Chicago with a passion for learn-

ing. He broke all scholastic records at the Northwestern University Law School—from which also Mr. Steven- son graduated with honors. The two men were friends from this early period. :

Mr. Goldberg’s reputation a.nd’ seicinidl is gratifying to most the world’s diplomats. The only dis- cordant note for the-—_moment—is

struck by the Arabs who seem ton- ee

vinced that. by reason of his origin, “he se be a strong supporter of

| Zionist causes. Rut there are other and more important reasons for fill- | ing the post with the best man-avail- able. The UN delegate is a cabinet member in the American government. He participates in making the decis-

ions which he must present ant dé-~

He must have. first and foremost. the capacity to understand people from other continents and spokesmen for different and often contrasting forms of government and ideologies “T know he has a good head,” a African diplomat was quoted as say- ing of Mr. Goldberg. “I just wonder if his heart is in the right place.” This is the quality that made Mr. Stevenson so immensely popular. The feeling among those who know him is that Goldberg, in addition to his. other qualifications, docs indeed possess some of that deep understand- ing and touching numanity for which >-the—late.—-great-.ambassador, w1!!_be long remembered. ,If.this be ° the case, not only thesU nited States but “the whole free world will have rea- son for thankfulness.

Water Meters

This parched province can sym- pathize with the ‘City of New York which is- growing more than a little concerned over the shortage of wat- er for the use of the inhabitants.

Mayor Wagner ‘has, expressed his fears to his people over the tele- vision. This is the greatest drought the New York area has ever known, so the water shortage can be very serious, the mayor points. out.

In his talk he warned that he may have to reconsider his previous op- | position to the “suggestion that wat- er use meters be installed in New York's homes and apartments. As-in most big cities, industrial and com- mercial establishments which habitu- allv use a great deal of water do not pay the flat rate water tax but are on a pay-as-you-go basis. Meters on the intake pipes.begin working the moment the tap is turned and the gallonage is counted and the com- pany charged accordingly. The ex- tension of this system would be a

Highway Accident Figures eaaingus

Every car driven off our pro- duction lines today will be in- volved in an accident, if it re- mains roadworthy for twelve years: Every teen-ager passing his driving test today will be involved in three accidents be- | fore he qualifies for the old Age Pension.

These are the statistics for.

I wrote that six months ago. Since then Canada’s casualty toll | for 1964 has been compil- |

ed. It rose o 144,489. The cost of the year's 363,000 highway accidents has been © estimated at $800,000.000, which was com- fortably more than enough to. pay all our government O!d } Age Pensions for the whole | year. While all figures of high- way toll are rising each year, most significantly the rate of deaths per million vehicle miles {is climbing.

| that are not sterile.

In extensive burns, essential tissue juices and serums- are | lost through the raw surfaces. Shock ensues because of pain, tissue trauma, and the absorp- tion of seared debris. The dam- aged areas are subject to infec- | tion and are given the same | ticulous care as in a surgical | procedure. Skin grafting may be done as part -of the immediate care. The open-air treatment avoids the use of bandages that stick; now and then the individ- |

ual lies in a transparent tent to |
