eradication of coucn grass otherwise known as quack twitch or scutch grass is one of the oard- tst problems with which the farm er has to deal few people realize the enormous quantity of couch grass roots which exist in infested soil tests conducted by the cen tral experimental farm at ottawa show weights of roots ranging from 1531 to 6997 pounds to the acresas much as a heavy crop of hay no wonder it is hard to clean out when it spreads by roots as well as seed thoroughly cleaning out the roots is the one effective way of getting rid of couch in small areas this may be done by hand in larger areas by shallow plowing and working thoroughly with the cultivator to keep the roots turned up to the sun long enough for them to kill only as large an area as can be thoroughly cleaned up at one time should be undertaken as half way measures are only lost time and effort canadian ejjgs rest tlio per capita consumption of eggs in canada is approximately 36g1s a year according to j a carroll secretary of the ontario marketing board a record un equalled by any other country be cause of the fact that canada pro duces the best eggs mr carroll gives as the underlying reason the fact that canadian eggs are govern ment graded and declares guess work is eliminated the annoyance and disappointment of paying for a high quality product and receiving an inferior one is a thing of the past in canada so far as the egg business is concerned the old ex pression let the buyer beware is obsolete in this country when eggs are being purchased the canadian consumer decides the quality of eggs he or she purchases not the dealer providing the eggs are bought by grade as for the effect of this huge consumption on gener al prosperity consider these figures the farmer received an average price of 23 cents a dozen for his eggs or a total revenue of 69940- 000 the consumer paid an average price of 3s5 cents a dozen or a total of 117176000 the difference of 47234000 is the sum

reported as extremely quiet throughout can ada the domestic demand during december was light as compared with other years owing to the mild weather tho usual movement of hay to lumber mining and road construction camps was not as brisk as in other years the ex port demand for hay continues to be poor and unless it improves no real substantial movement is ex pected of the large supplies of commercial hay still in growers hands in many parts of canada prices being paid for immediate needs of the trade are much lower than in other years alfalfa for poultry alfalfa in the green state has long been recognized as an ideal poultry feed when used in conjunc tion with the usual grains and mashes it is used extensively as range or as cut green feed for birds in confinement during the spring summer and fall mouths in most alfalfagrowing areas but the value of the hay as a winter feed is not so generally known so much of the years success depends on tlio number and quality of chicks hatched each spring that it is im portant to do all possible to in crease the fertility and hatchabil- ity of the eggs and the livability of the chicks experiments have shown that 20 per cent better fer tility and 64 per cent better hatchability of fertile eggs can be obtained from birds where alfalfa hay instead of straw is used as litter in tho breeding pens the alfalfa should be used as litter

with field corn barley is also the north country corn in northern counties where early frosts render the growing season too short for tho production of largo crops of corn barley is found to be an excellent substitute it grows rapidly and is the shallowest rooted of all tlio cereals because of these two points barley does best of all cereals on ground which is insufficiently drained and hence
