About one ere present, and wing of kindred Chickens on Range Chickens require ; that other few simple precaution: taken, clean grass or clover range will provide ideal conditions for producing well-grown vigorous stock with a minimum amount of labour and expense. At th-> Dominion Experimental Station, Fre,~<wicton. X.B., the sexes are separated > hen the chickens are from 6 to 9 weeks of age. The brooder houses are moved to a clover sod area on which there were no chickens -for at least one year and the chickens are confined to a yard until they are between three and four months of age. They are then moved to a range on wheh there were no chickens the previous year. A pasture field or a meadow from which an early crop of hay has been taken is ideal for this purpose. Range shelters hich they assembled Here silence was observ-Lce of Mr. and Mrs. John L. McDonald, Thornhill; Mr. Jay Langdon. Brighton, and baby Gerald Branseombe, Colborne. Congratulations were extended to the parents of the children born during the year, namely, Mr. and Mrs. John Montgomery, Mr. and Mrs. Athol Clarke, Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Reddick, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Chapman and Mr. and Mrs. Bert Mutton. The ponies furnished much delight for the children. Douglas Rutherford drove his on a tiny two-wheeled cart and often had four of five kiddies in the box at once, and George McDonald's pony was kept busy with little riders. The amateur entertainment provided much pleasure to many. The Turney and Chapman members furnished orchestra mustc. Sam Black rendered a pleasing solo; (Marjorie Gtoodrich also rendered a i solo accompanied by Lenore Welton.

This method of wa'e'rng is preferable to allowing the birds to drink from springs or creeks, as these places provide conditions which are favourable for the spreading of parasites. Relating facts about accident cost in Ontario, the estimate is made that motor accidents cost the citizens of Ontario $25,000,000 a year, and that each year an average of 500 persons are killed, and.over .10.000 injured on Ortario highways, many of- the latter permanently disabled and disfigured tor life.

Fishing, swimming, and boating art the chief pastimes with golf, tutii, riding and hiking as leading land sports. Their location, not far fiA/the city yet in unspoiled heavily wooded lake country, gives them undisputed advantages. The Canadian Pacific Railway's chalet-bungalow camps at Devil's Gap and French River are outstanding examples of this type of holiday resort Fishing is excellent for "muskies", great northern pike, large and small mouth bass, trout and other game fish.

Operated as practically one big Public Ward, it makes possible medical treatment ,and hospital car* to needy children from every corner of Ontario. During the twelve months just ended, 8,345 cot patients were served for a total of 199,747 patient days. Ovfer 8,00* 00 operat ed. Over 600,000 meals And the Out-Pattent gave 84,414 individual Every day dozens of doctors come to the Hospital to donate their thne and talent in the operating rooms, the out-patient clinic and m bedside It is a notable fact that the Hospital for Sick Chfdren has one of the lowest ratios of expanse per patient day among all similar hospitals in North America, despite the fact that the care of children involves so much extra service including, in many cases, pre-school training. And despite the fact that the many, many problem cases directed • to this institution create extra costs over and above ordinary hospital requirements. Over 400 of the 420 beds in the Hospital are for those in very moderate circumstances, or those who are receiving municipal relief. The rate per day. chargeable to the patient's parents (if able to pay) or to their municipality, is fixed at $1.78. There are no extra charges. The use of serums, modern health appliances and many other costly but vitally necessary items, cannot be provided for out of the fixed allowances for needy patients. Nor do they provide for the medicines, orthopaedic appliances, etc., supplied in thousands of cases. Despite the fact that kiddies require especially expensive hospital care, the government allowances are the same as for those caring chiefly for adults. The cost of serving patients is therefore $1.00 per day more than the combined income from parents (or municipality), plus the government gran in spite of the low expanse ratio and the free service of the doctors. So, each year, the Hospital for Sick Children appeals to you for a donation to help meet the deficit resulting from its service to the needy. This deficit cannot be eliminated; in fact, it must Increase if' the demand for service to more and more children is to be met. Everyone who understands the fact must want this great work to continue despite the fact that the more patienfi who are treated the greater the annual deficit becomes. Remember, the Hospital receives no support from the Toronto Federation for Community Service, because patients are accepted from all parts of the province. Nevertheless, no Ontario child should be denied health if mere money makes the difference. Mail a donation to-day to the Appeal Secretary, The Hospital for Sick Children, 67 College Street, Toronto. The thanks of little children will/ be your reward.
