Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - April 25, 1925, Winnipeg, Manitoba Manitoba free saturday 1925 b1ey outlines t fight gives address before Cana Dian society of technical agriculturists declares real Hope of Success depends on Breeding an immune wheat for a time each discovery in the study of wheat Stern rust seemed further to complicate the problem of fighting it and the gathering of fresh data is still an Rin ending said or d. L. Bailey Plant pathologist of the Dominion Laboratory at agricultural College to members of the Canadian Suc lety of technical agriculture last night. After dinner in the College dining room and the election of officers for the ensuing year the members pres ent numbering 35, repaired to the biology building where preparations setting Forth the life history of wheat rust in its Many ramifications were set out under a dozen Micro Scopes. With the assistance of or. Bailey prof. V. W. Jackson and of typed cards the visitors studied the subject of the talk which followed and of what All conceded to be the most arresting problem before Agri culture at the moment. Four principles of control Are applied in turn to All problems in stated or. Bailey. They exclusion eradication Protection and immunization. Briefly de scribing the possibilities of each the lecturer said that while Many fun sous pests could be kept out or con fined with the assistance of natural barriers rust was not among them. Eradication was achieved through a weak spot inthe Armor of the pest and in wheat Stem rust its depend ence on the Barberry Bush Laid it open to attack. The eradication of Barberry was a safeguard although not the cure for reasons stated later. The Campaign in the United states against the Shrub might a i serially lesson Canada s troubles from rust but the Barberry would continue to be a danger in the East where it was acclimatized. Live Over the Winter the effectiveness of the eradication naturally depended on whether the rust could live Over the Winter without the Barberry. Data on this had been studied for some time and look the form of surveys study of spore traps and Over wintering studies. Although the collection of data was an unending Job and apparently complicated things progressively As fast As collected it seemed that rust Only Winters in Western Canada by Means of the Barberry. Otherwise it blows up from the South in its red spore stage. Protection from rust by Means of fungicides had not been a promising Field the doctor continued although Sulphur dust showed signs of beneficial action. The real Hope was immunization. Unlike immunization in the animal world no known method would con e or it artificially. It remained to Breed ail immune wheat and discouraging As the task looked. It was Well within the Bounds of possibility. History of rust research or. Bailey dealt at some length with Tho history of rust research and the complications attendant upon the discovery of Stakman and Lenine that there were 38 different strains. Further Progress said the lecturer depends a great Deal on whether biologic strains Are con i Stant or whether they specialize and adapt themselves to environment. They seemed to be fixed but might possibly alter by adaption or hybridization. It seemed quite assured that the reactions Between specific strains of rust and specific wheat varieties were constant. The origin of rust Strain would Case Light on the adaption aspect of Tho problem if it is Ever known. Regarding the types of res Stence. Or. Bailey said that it seemed to be specific and hereditary but Physicochemical studies had not produced anything to Lessen the Puzzle to any extent. He also of morphological resistance which pulled some varieties through which were really susceptible. Acme wheat was an example. Although actually susceptible it seemed to escape rust in the Field and provided an in stance of when the gentle Art of getting by was apparently More so Sim or. Roberts of new Brunswick was the first minister of health in the live fact for folks who suppose that the maritime provinces a is too slow for anything but sails and who forget that the first Street car line in the Woi old was run in Yarmouth Nova Scotia s Outlook to wards Boston. Or Roberts entered the legislature in 1917. Premier Fos ter made him minister of health in 1918, while still the War was waged. Valuable than actual resistant Quality. The officers of.

I profits tax method of collection discussed at sitting of Public accounts committee k. W. Breadner throws Light on delay in depositing of cheques for special despatch to the free press Ottawa april heat and Light marked this morning s sitting of the Public accounts committee when w. C. Good Brant resumed his questioning of commissioner of taxation r. W. Breadner on the application of the business profits War tax act and the methods of collecting that tax. Much of this morn ing s trouble started when or. Good attempted to get information about the receipt by the department of Fin Ance in March 1921, of three cheques from three Ontario distillery firms the total of the cheques being about and about their Deposit in december of that year. This matter was mentioned in a despatch which appeared in Tho free press in february of last year. When one of these firms was singled out. And name mentioned to or. Breadner by or. Good there were protests from different Mem Bers of the committee and the chair Man Hance j. Loguer Cumberland . Finally ruled that the name of the firm could not. Be made Public. Then or. Good changed his question to the extent of omitting actual name of the firm. Answering or. Good the tax commissioner said that cheques were received from the three distillery firms in in payment of business profits War tax. These cheques were deposited after the tax had been received1 and a. Waiver received from the taxpayer with one of the firms mentioned originally As Why should t a Winnipeg Baker produce Canada s finest bread with the world s finest wheat right at our. Very door Rich country milk and All other ingredients of the very finest with new modern machinery that duplicates the Best scientific method of master Bakers who Cater to Public tastes with our 43 gears experience in baking bread right Here in Winnipeg t it any wonder that Canada s finest bread Speirs Myrnell Brefeld 666-676 Elgin ave phones n6617 n6618 ses sment could to reopened at any time under certain conditions. No Benefit to taxpayer the said or. Bread Ner referring to the three distillery firms not receive any Benefit on account at the cheques not having been deposited because they were accepted cheques and the Banks received the Benefit not the taxpayers. They were deposited in december 1921. No interest was charged As the assessments had not been levied or the taxes finally determined. If a taxpayer desires to Send in a Cheque in Advance of the being deter mined that Cheque can be deposited to the credit of the receiver general Cor the simple reason that there was no Power provided by the act by which a refund could be granted. I May say that the companies Are now under he in reply to a question that no distinction was made in the Case of distil Lery firms. D. M. Kennedy West what would be the object of a. Firm paying a Cheque say nine months ahead of the assessment or. Breadner they wanted the assessment levied for a certain amount in accordance with their cheques and i had my doubts As to the correctness of it and i wanted to obtain from them a letter stating that if the assessment were levied in accordance therewith and conditions changed that the department would have the privilege of reopening and levying further assessments. They Are under investigation today and it was All done for the purpose of protecting the Revenue of the country. To loss suffered or. Good would it take from March to december to obtain that letter from them or. Breadner i think the letters were obtained in october or novem Ber .1 am not sum when they were obtained late in 1021. As i say again the taxpayers received no Benefit from the cheques being held. Or. Good the country suffer any loss or. Breadner i do not consider that it . If the assessments Are reopened i am inclined to think that the department will get Revenue greater than any possible interest that could have been lost. Or. Good pointed out negotiations were completed in i Rover Ber but the cheques were still held after the completion of the negotiations. Or. Breadner they were held not purposely not designedly no such thing As that. Or. Good carelessly or. Breadner i will accept the charge of carelessness. So As i am concerned i want to say that tile minister of the department knew nothing about these cheques. The Case of two or three mining companies were dealt this morning. The inquiry into special cases will be resumed next week. Curved wednesday morning. Service was conducted at Thomson s Chapel by Rev. A w aliens . Of Young methodist cd Rich of which institution mrs.

Fletcher tells of Camm schools declares Forest week has made impression expressing his conviction that excellent results would attend the Celebration of save the Forest week in the schools of Winnipeg and the province or. Robert Fletcher Dep Uty minister of stated last night he not think there was a school in Manitoba at which the necessity for preventing Forest Freij had not been emphasized in a Way that would make a lasting impression on the mind of the Young people reports which he had received so far indicated that during the week principals and teachers had Coop rated enthusiastically with the minion and provincial authorities and that effective use had been made of. The excellently prepared pro gramme which had been sent out from Ottawa or. Fletcher said. I think that a two fold object was the Deputy minister of education stated we have to gel the children interested in Forest fire prevention while they Are Young so that when they grow up they will have an instinctive liking for the Trees and an instinctive Drea d of doing anything that to a conflagration with the is calling losses this often involves. On the other hand it is essential to inter est men and women generally for it is they who Are. Likely to cause the damage through carelessness now.
