reais ~~ Ea Farmers! Notes | It 18 corn roast time in Canada, one of the twe yriacipal outdoor festivities in the Dominion with which the pass- ing of the ears does not seem to inter. fere. The other is "sugaring off" at maple sugar time in the early days of spring. : Farmers Must Produce To the man ib the street, any at- tempts to increase production in'these days of depressing world surpluses ieem a waste of time, or even worse, He forgets, says Mr. L. HF. Newman, Dominion Cerealist, that the problem of the individual farmer differs vastly Irom that of the nation as a whole, in that the capacity of the farmer to arry on and pay his way is measured 'n no small degree by the yields he realizes per acre. To the farmer, the acre is his unit of production. If his icreage yields per acre, whether con: verted into milk, mutton, or beef, or iisposed of in their law state, are not sufficiently high to enable him to meet bis obligations, he must either suc- sumb entirely or be forced to adopt a standard of living which removes "im |. as an important factor in the problem of keeping the wheels of commerce moving. A bright feature of the egg market "Is that this year promises to be the | heaviest egg-exporting season since © 1926. 3 ! Good Bulls in Demand Lately, a very definite increase in the demand for registered Holstein bulls, with creditable backing, has be- come apparent in all parts of Ontario. The movement in this direction has ~ been particularly noticeable since the new Premium Policy went into effect in June, ' As a result, prices have been | strengthening and even higher values are likely to prevail this Fall, accord- 'ng to breeders, ' Limited Ocean Space "The volume of livestock export this year is considerably greater than that _ of last year," said Garnet H. Duncan, | livestock investigator, Ontario mar- keting Board, "and a comparison of sales, in Great Britain, discloses that top prices have been received for cat tle of 1150 to 1300 pounds." - Mr. Duncan sald that Ontario feed- ers still have a considerable number of cattle available for export, and lack of ocean space seems to be the only factor restraining even greater ship- ments, : For the present, prospective individ- ual shippers should communicate with livestock agents in Montreal , with a view to securing any space which may be offered from time to time. BE Canadian Root Growth Canadian field root crops, both in yield and quality, raised from Cana- dian-grown seed are in many cases superior and in all-cases equal to crops of the same varieties grown from im- ported seed, However, previous to the Great War there existed a conception in the Dominion that field root seed grown in Canada was not capable of producing as good crops as seed of the same varieties imported from Eur- ope. Until that time the amount of field root seed a Canada was neglig- ible, the bulk of the seed used being imported from 'Europe, supplemented by small quantities from-the United States, During the war imported seed was not available, and it was a.case of growing seed in Canada or cutting down the acreage of crops. The De- partment of Agriculture led the way, and since then ample proof has been given, particularly through the exten- pive tests by the Experimental Farms and Stations, of the continued stability of Canadian-grown seed, --_---- Prairie Soil Superiority -- The essental or distinguishing char- acteristic of the Western prairie soils is the possession of a large proportion of vegetable matter and its concomit- ant nitrogen, It is {y this act unques- tionably, says the Dominion Chemist, that these soils primarily owe their re- markable fertility and lasting quality. For the most part, .they certainly con- ain abundant stores of tho mineral ele- ments of plant food, but in this respect they do not differ from many soils of less productiverdess in other parts of the Dominion. It is the larger per- centage of nitrogen-holding humus- forming material and its'intimate cor- poration 'with the sand and clay that give to these soils their superiority, chemically, physically and biglogically. Lastly, there'is the winter with its in- tense cold practically locking up the stores of plant food from the autumn until the season opens again, Waste rom' leaching, such as occurs in coun- tries in which the winter is mild and open, is thus prevented, ee fe ~~ Will the Beard Retuin? Through the eighteenth century beards waxed and waned in the world's fashion centres although first "records appear to start around 1100, and there was a changing vogue in beards as well as in style from 1480 to 1600.

One Simple Truths Never take a- man's last dollar; he's liable to turn around and borrow five from you, Women don't mind dieting themselves but they hate a man around the house on a diet. An am- bitious wife is many a man's self- starter, Many matrimonial bonds are of short term variety. We don't hear 80 gnuch about the wolf at the door nowadays; maybe the beast got in and starved to death, As wise men do not need it and foolish men will not take it, we keep our advice tightly corked. Mid pleasures and palaces though we roam, we still like to raid the ice box at home. Young Autlipr--"The art of telling a story consists of knowing what to leave unsaid." " Married Rounder--*"It doesn't make any difference, my boy. My experience is that she finds out, anyway." "I know what you're thinking about," he said. "Well, why don't you?" she whisper- ed.

We are like mechanics who see only one portfon of the great engine or subtle plece of inechanism at which they are laboring, and never see the com- plete machine.

A cold frame is much like a hotbed in appearance, but is without manure. It is used in the spring either tor seeds or for growing plants taken trom the hotbed before they can be set out In the open, or it may also be used by flower lovers who start plants in the house and who cannot get or do not desire to use manure. According to the directions "of the circular of the Dominion Department of Agriculture on how to make and use hotbeds and cold frames, the frame should be made with sides and ends of twelve-inch boards, preferably two inches in thickness and placed on a slopee go that the back part of the frame is six inches higher than the front, By getting the cold frame ready before the winter sets in, considerable time will be saved in the early spring when it would be impossible to erect the frame owing to the frost jh the ground.
