to entirely control the apple scab but it is well worth the extra labor and cost when one obtains clean fruit the first application must bo made very soon after growth begins if not when the tree is

recently show that canad ians drink a pint of milk a day on an average making an increase of approximately one hundred per cent since 1921 canadians are also said to eat more butter per capita than any other people in the world as in dicated by a figure of 2931 pounds per man woman and child annually the per capita consumption of milk is 4708 pounds a year which is compared with 45s pounds per capita for the united states ice cream likewise has shown an increase the 1928 figure being 704 pints per capita as compared with 526 pints for 1921 the consumption of cheese in the past seven years has also risen from 251 pounds to 354 lbs per capita per jear farm machinery it has been proved that the use of modern machinery can reduce the costs of production on all crops however the buying of machinery should be done only after careful consideration and- machinery will not turn a deficit into a profit machinery will not take the place of good seed and good cultural pract ices nor will it serve as a substitute for intelligent management in fact the more machinery there is on a farm the greater is the necessity for following the best farm practices because investment costs are higher risks are greater and losses may he heavier r sow correct seed farmers should remember the value of sowing weedfree seeds and seeds of tested varieties of grain by so doing one may increase the yield from 30 per cent to 63 per cent above the lowest yielding varieties in oats it has been shown that large plump seed will average 62 bushels to the acre while the small seed yields only 466 bushels in barley the ratio is 53 s and 432 bushels farmers are advised to get a copy of the analysis of the same before buying seed your local agricultural office ean furnish desired information on this subject
