There are said to be 800 men in -Alberta; alone with applications in for -marshland to `be used largely tor muslrrat tarming.`and interest is Just as keen in the other `Western provinces. Here in Ontario there are several musk:-at farms in operation. and it would be difficult to estimate how many :01: M and rabbit ranches are under way.

Last winter one Winnipeg tirm alone handled over one and one half million wild rabbit skins. at an average of ten cents each. It does not seem much, but it is more than nothing. ` `Bigger and Better Over 50 home garden contests are being carried on in Ontario this year by cooperation of the agricultural representatives and the Chilean ni- trate educational vbureau. The bur-; eau provides each `boy and girl tak- Iing part with a ten pound has of `nitrate for use on the garden, sup- plies part or the prize money. and offers special prizes for essays on the use of nitrate in gardening. It is an advertising plan on its part. or course. but it is valuable in other ways. `It induces children to pay close attention to their. garden plots and to fertility of the soil, to ob- Iserveand to express what they ob- serve. \Algg.l- and \MInu 0. Weeds and Why E. C. Drury, (they say that provin- cial cabinet ministers do not retain the title I-Ion." after relinquishing office, though he =i's no less honor- able for that) has thi to say on the Ontario weed situation in a recent issue or 'MacLean s Magazine: and most farmers will agree that it is well said: Weeds can be fought only by cultivation. and this involv- es labor. Two pairs of hands are not enough to do all the work there is to do, and have it -done sharply pn time. While the farmer and his man are -struggling to save their harvest; tall cultivation is apt to be neglect- ed pertorce. The hoed crop, in the absence or time `to hoe it. can no longer-`be `depended upon to clean the land. or course the farmer should not have weeds. should not allow them to go to seed. But the remedy is not to be found in preach- ing at him; still less in legislation. He knows all about them. knows how to get rid of them. hates them as much or more than any govern-, ment expertor even newspaper edi- tor can. He will get rid of t-hem, too, it only he can `be placed in a posi-_ tion where he can attord to hire a.n- ` outings: mauve ` H011 WIIUFB In other man.

Those excursions have been revived during the past few years. `but most of the excurslonists now travel `by motor car. arrive` when they can and leave when they please. `This year the college has set aside June 19 to 2-2, -inclusive, as Farrners Week, during which per- iod it provides free noon lunch for all who choose to come and guides to show them over the plots and buildings. It's your week to see your college, reads the announce- ment. n.. 1-....-|. Delivery of live stockto market or to individual buyer; by truck is be- coming increasingly `common. and in most cases the truck is not owned by the farmer but by a. man who ;makes a `special business of road hauling. Hogs delivered by truck and wagon to -public stockyards and packing plants in lontario alone now number nearly '200,000 a year. and of this number ~90,per cent. come in by truck, ao'cording to L. W. Pear- sall. director of Ontario hog grad- ers. Hogs are hauledto `Toronto by motor trom as far away as Cooks- town, Letroy, `Fergus and Elora. 'Wher-e Advantage Lies '1`ruck'~hauling is a great advan- tage to the farmer, says Mr. Pear- sail. The trucks call right at the farm, and the farmer has no trouble providing means or men. There is a considerable saving in shrinkage because of speed in delivery." An- other advantage is pointed out by Fred J. Bridle. assistant Dominion live stock agent at the Union Stock Yards at Toronto. Thewide awake farmer who keeps in touch -with the market can land his stock on the yards in time to take advantage of price fluctuations, instead or chanc- ing a lucky strike.

It A appears that we eat only 10 pounds ` a. year of lamb and mutton (and it you eat it at restaurants it's all lamb. there's no such t'hin~g-as mut- ~ton any more) whereas we eat 80 pounds or pork and 75 pounds or beef.
