Barrie $3.75 Winter Feeding Problem A scarcity of both corn silage and roots, the two home-gro\vn source.- of succulence, will complicate tue feeding situation this winter in Western Ontario at least. Corn is a short crop, though of good qaulity, and roots less than half a crop Nor is hay very plentiful. `There Is an abundance of straw,` of which much will be fed. The large use 01 straw presents a dual feeding prob- lem. Succulence and proteins will liave to be supplied in larger meas- ure than in previous years. Such meals as oilcake, cothon seen and gluten will provide the protein, although in the case of cotton seed care must be exercised because it it` co11stipat*_i11g. Succulence can be supplied by molasses and by soaking ; dried beet pulp. Where there Is some silage it should be mixed with cut straw 24 hours in advance of feeding in order to make it go as` far as possible. Lowering the Cost I One authority makes the follow- ing suggestions for lowering the cost of milk production : (1) Eliminatiov ineicient producers; (2) Raise you) own feed for the herd. Legume roughages will reduce the need fox purchased concentrates. Raising more legumes will also increase grain yields. (3) Provide warn: water for the herd in winter, pre- ferably kept before them in the stable. A proper water supply has? a greater effect on production than. is commonly realized. Weekly Crop Report Recent rains have modied the severity of the water shortage situ- ation, which had become acute In many counties. According; to report; g of .'-Jgriculitiural representatives, 3 large percentage of the wells and streams had dried up and stockmer particularly were alarmed. Fall work is reported in good shape am plowing in all counties practically completed. In Dundas, compensation and salvage received for reactors to bovine tuberculosis tests are in many cases more than sufficient no cover their replacement with clean; cattle on account of the low price` right now.

A sudden drop in temperature in Kent found the farmers with work well done ano time to devote to cleaning up around the premises. In Lambton farm stock auction sales are bringing good prices, while in Lanark there Is a big demand indicated for stockers and hogs with a light supply. Farm- ers in South Simcoe are marketing their grains by feeding it to hogs and beef cattle. All shock are being stabled in Temiskaming with little shipping being done. Canadian Seed in Demand A sharp increase in the demand for registered grades oi Canadian- grown seed of roots and vegetabres 1 is indicated, particularly in Ontarlo. Vegetable growers, gar(leners- and ` farmer : nd that the extra cost a.- high quality seed is slight in propor- tion to its actual superiority. Two factors make for quality in seed` grown in Canada. `-These are the in- herent advanltagze of careful selec- 3 tion in foundation seed stock and i the important fact that seed pro duced in Canada is acclimated, ;:Iv~ .in;:' maximum assurance of produc- rhion results. Heretofore the most of eld root and garden vegetable `seeds used in Canada have been Im- iported from the United States and lliurope. Field tests are showing that this imported seed is of pom quality and much of it of very ques- -tionable worth. Avulnc nu: AAIVC .)lUC I I .~\(:CO)`(ll11{.',' to Dr. Lionel Ste\'en- son, provincial zoologxist, most losses among; live stock, particularly them. of such a nature as goitre in lambs and calves, hairlessness among ho_~.; litters and joint ill in foals, can easily be prevented if iodine is in- corporated in the rations of the breeding stock and especially in me rations of pregnant animals.

It`. is quite simple to handle, and according to the best live stock opinion in Canada is :1 cheap insurance against many live stock losses. As does vary with the diil`crent animals, stoclnnen are well advised lo secure a pamphlet en titled - l`he Signicance of Iodine m the Feeding of Live Stock and dis- 'tril)ute(l on request by the Can- adian Co-operative Wool Growers, VI`oronto.

At present there are 55 herds, either accredited or under accreditation. He continue. to say that this large number will be increased next spring and ac- credited Iive shock men claim to be entirely sold out of surplus stock. A number of pure bred accredited cattle are being brought in from Norfolk, Haldimand, Oxford and Perth Coumies. Open and bred heifers are being bought in prefer- ence to springing cows. ` nncx \4urc us luclllnury Winter care of farm machinery is of decided economic importance am; this cannot be effected without :1 `shed for shelmer Weathering caused by snow coverings and continua`! freezing and thawing and wet per- iods in fall and spring brings rapm metal parts and hearings to rust. decay of wooden parts. and cause; Farm News Winter Iodine for Live Stock .
