England iUPI A pet shop here is advertising meat scented nylon bones. rice Couve dc Murville and other top government aides are accom panying the president. De Gaulle spent the Easter holi day at his county home resting for Ihc grueling trip and polishing the speeches he will make. He will deliver most of them from mem ory. De Gaulle is bothered by bad eyesight and hates to read texts in public. This will mark the third official foreign visit by De Gaulle since becoming president. He has visited Italy and earlier this month scored a personal triumph on a state visit to Britain. De Gaulle left behind him a worsening domestic farm crisis, a threat of demonstrations by dis contented miners and increasing military activity by rebels in Al geria. Premier Michel Debre will have to face alone opposition censure motions against De Gaulle's pol icies when the National Assembly reconvenes April 26. Deputies are angry because the president re fused to call an emergency as sembly session to debate the farm crisis although a majority of the Assembly petitioned for it. The farmers are worried be cause farm income is not keeping pace with the rising cost of items they need to purchase. While De Gaulle was in Britain two weeks ago farmers held mass nationwide demonstrations that developed in to riots at two localities. Similar expressions of domestic discontent could embarrass De Gaulle while on his Western Hemisphere tour. Arriving in Ottawa tonight, De Gaulle will remain in Canada un til Friday, when he flies to the United Slates for pre-summit talks with President Eisenhower and a week's visit.
