better utilization of the herbage. The chief objection is the cost of extra fencing and watering fa- cilities. It is interesting to note that there are several progressive farmers on Prince Edward Island making use of rotational grazing. Most of these men feel that it is quite beneficial.

Acetonemla This condition is commonly seen in dairy cattle and is be-

lieved by some to be more prev- alent than in former years. It is also observed in sheep and is known as Pregnancy Disease. In sheep it is more serious than in cows and generally has a higher death rate.

The disease was first recognized in Holland. Denmark and Sweeden, and then in England. A short time later it was redognized in A- merica. At first it was believed to be a complication of Milk Fever or some other condition affecting dairy cattle, however. since that time it has been found to be an entirely separate condition.

The disease generally affects well-nourished milk cows and typical cases usually occur eight to fourteen days after calving. This is not necessarily confined to this period because it may oc- cur anywhere up to two months after calving. Most cases occur during the_ period when cows are kept in stalls, in fact. affected cows show a remarkable tendency to recover when out on grass.

The principle symptoms are loss of milk flow, dullness. constipa- tion, and an odd smell on the breath. It is interesting to note but not everybody can detect the odour from the breath.

Very fe\v losses will be experi- enced if professional assistance is obtained when the animal shows the typical symptoms. A UI'lIlC

sample‘ submitted to the Labora- tory will enable as accurate diagnosis.

In the general food manage- ment of dairy cattle it is essential that ii highly nutritious, well-bal- anced ration is made available.

Poultry News The P. E. I. Poultry Industry Committee have held several

meetings recently at which the following topics were discussed and acted upon.

Preparations for two chicken barbecues, which will be held in Summerside and Charlottetown this summer are under way. Our committee hopes to have a much larger barbecue this year. The Poultry Industry Committee has made up a number of grills which will be used at our barbecue. We plan to loan out these grills to any organizations who are pre- paring to have a chicken bar- becue.

A poultry school is to be held in Charlottetown this summer. This school will be put on to in- crease the sale of poultry pro- ducts, to improve holding condi- tions end displays of poultry pro- ducts.

Native Islander Dies = In Paradise, Montana.

The passing of Joseph Howard Gay, on March 24, at Paradise, Montana, is deeply regretted by his friends there, where he was, well and favorably knoivn for, more than «to years.

The late Mr. Gay was 77 _\'e:ii's old. and was the oldest son of the late Samuel Howard Gay oi, Pownal. P.E.I. and grandson of the late I-low.-ird Gay of same place. He left his native Province when a young man of 20 years and has travelled much since then finally settling in Montana. His wife and one son predeceased him, but there are left. to mourn his loss ll. daugh- tcr, Mrs. Sutherland of Brockton, Mars, si sister, Mrs. Joseph Mac- Eachern or P.E.I. Canada and a brother, Ms’. W. 1. Gay of Califor- nia, Vernon Gay, southport, Por- ley Gay, Hazelbrook and Mrs. R. W. Jones, Alexandra are also of the family by is inter marriage. Three half-sisters, Bea.l.x'ice, Eva and Helena reside in Massachusetts.

Although Mr. Gay was a. busy man. he did not neglect that ini- pnrtant. phase of his sojourn here. The latter years of his life, he became more engrossed in the things that pertain to the future life. His letters to some of the fsmily, were a clear indication of the truth in Holy Wi1t»—"Bleased it the man that walketh not in the council of the ungodly. noi- standeth in the way of sinners: but his delight is in the‘la\v of the Lord. and. in that law doth he meditate day and night."

The following clipping was taken from the Paradise Press. and glvw an intimate account or the passing, and burial of Mr. Gay:—

I“i.ineral services were held at the Paradise Community church Thursday with the Rev. B. V. Ed- worthy officiating. Burial was in the Paradise cemetery.

Pallbearers were Henry Bertram, Harvey Secord, A. St. Clair, B. Vei-meers. Robert Vermeers, and Jack Warrern. all conductor ris- soclates of. Mr. Gay.

Mr. Gay made lils home for the past It years with Mr. and Mrs. Howard Steele and treated tl‘lPll' children and grandchildren as his own. Tiny tots around town were often seen "just visiting" or I‘L'CPl\'- ing a treat from the man who was as big in kind deeds as he was in stature."

Police Guards Block Attempt on Japanese Premier’: Life '

TOKYO. tReuters)—strengthen-

around Premier Shlderu Yoshida’a home to block a possible assassi- nation attempt on the eve of his world tour. Arrangements for the trip went ahead amid a chorus ,f press and parliament criticism.

Police say a young carpenter caught outside his house has con- fessed that he planned to kill Yoshids because there was “no way of knowing what promises he might make once he was abroad."

Suspicion about the trip drew an angry charge that Yoshlda is “fool- ing the nation" from an opposition parliament member in parliament today.

Yoshida told the House his trip in "still undecided" and only “ten- tatively planned."

A left-wing socialist shouted furiously: “Everybody knows you are leaving this Friday. You are fooling the nation."

Yoshlda is expected to spend a total of six weeks visiting the United States, Britain, Canada, France, West Germany, Italy, In- dis, Pakistan and Thailand. Press reports say one goal will be to obtain a. large loan from the U. S

Of Moving Pictures

The other evening I saw an old favorite, "Rose Marie" on the new greatly enlarged moving picture screen. the Clnemascope. You may recall that the setting in in the Canadian Rockies and the chief characters are the Royal Mounted Police and French Canadians.

In this cinemascope version the magniflcient scenery assumes al- most equsl importance with the characters, and they themselves are out of all proportion to their role in the picture. Anne Blyih is an adorable young person, but the effect of her small figure, bloiin up to eight feet or more. iiceping tcars the size of apples. against a background of great mountains and boiling rapids. over nlovcr who is even now galloping to .i0lll her, is simply laughable.

On the other hand, "Julius Cae- sar," still the most. popular drama on Broadway. lalned in power through the new technique. not that the play lsi‘.‘t gripping in any medium. The cnlaigcd screen seems right for the sweep and scoop» of pamions and events, told by ii Shakespeare.
