Chinookan 106, Lowest temperature in night Max mum yesterday QUEBEC (CP) A bill to permit the sale of Montreal La Presse to the Trans Canada Corp. Fund of Montreal was approved Thursday by the public bills committee of the Quebec legislature. Legislative action permitting the sale was necessary because of a 1961 law limiting sales of La Presse Co. shares to within the family of the late Treffle Berthiaume. The bill is to go to the legislative assembly for third reading and to the legislative council, Quebecs upper house, before receiving royal, assent.

The committee approved a redrafted bill with major changes compared with the original draft, which had received approval in principle from the legislative assembly. The biggest change was that the legislature kept the right to authorize any change in control of La Compagnie de Publication de La Presse Ltee. Also involved in the transaction are the French-language weekly newspaper La Patne and CKAC, oldest French-language radio station in Canada. The bill contains a clause restricting future sale of La Presse, but excludes from this restriction La Patrie and CKAC. This experimental farm weather report Is compiled by the Saskatchewan Research Council in co.oo-erdtion with the Saskatchewan De-paitment of Agriculture and the Saskatoon weather office.

Scattered afternoon and evening thundershowers occurred over most of the district yesterday, but rainfall amounts were generally light. A very few isolated hail storms occurred in the Saskatoon forecast region. Scattered thundershowers are in prospect for the next few days, along with slightly cooler weather. The next disturbance In the series will cross the district tonight, but again the only precipitation will be in the form of shower activity. One or two isolated occurrences of hail may be expected during the next few days in the forecast region.

Todays forecast calls for sunny weather with a few afternoon cloudy periods, becoming cloudy this evening. Scattered afternoon and evening thundershowers may be expected. Northwest winds of 15 m.p.h., high temperatures of 80 today and lows tonight of 50 are in prospect. Saturday should be mostly cloudy with scattered showers and thundershowers and not quite so warm. Winds will be from the northwest at 15 m.p.bu, with high temperatures of 75 degrees and lows of 50 predicted.

The outlook for Sunday calls for sunny weather with afternoon and evening thundershowers, and little change in temperature. Very often the first growth cf mixed forage in summer is heavy and lush. To prevent loss of this crop by rain-showers, livestock men in many areas are preserving this crop in silos. This practice is becoming increasingly popular in the park belt of our region. The most common fault when making silage Is excessive moisture In the crop.

If silage is too moist, it will almost inevitably turn sour. With the current dry weather there will be no difficulty la wilting the forage crop to the desired 65 per cent moisture. Pickpe King 109. Sunnesque 112, Late To Bed 112. Maximum a year ago today Fifth $1,200.
