WITH FOUNDING PEACE PARLEYS Observers Believe LadyCham-beriain Laid Groundwork for London-Rome Peace Pact Upon Which Epochal World History Is Turning.(By Dewitt Mackenzie, Associated Press Foreign Affairs Writer) New York, April\t\u2014Brit- ish Prime Minister Chamberlain\u2019s pact of amity with Signor Mussolini is the pivot upon which epochal world-history is turning.Posterity may assay this treaty as being a determining factor in the struggle between democracy and dictatorships.Perhaps it is because of the worries of these parlous days, when militarism is sending up its crimson flares, that anxious watchers have rather overlooked one of the most interesting and noteworthy facts in connection with the Anglo-Italian agreement.They say it was a woman who laid the groundwork for the peace pact in Rome.She is Lady Chamberlain, widow of the late Sir Austen Chamberlain, who attained international fame as buildpr of peace, and sister-in-law of Prime Minister Chamberlain.Lady Chamberlain used the many Italian friendships she made as a partner of her statesman-husband to close the rift which has existed between the two countries since Mussolini\u2019s conquest of Ethiopia.It was my privilege to have the friendship of Sir Austen, and he once made a most striking confession to me about the influence which big wife had exercised on his official career.Sir Austen was at the height of his fame as Foreign Minister of Great Britain at the time.He wield-Continued on Page 2.Col.2.Spanish Insurgent Fleet Captured Or Sank A Score Of Fishing Boats Transporting Loyalist Militiamen Hendaye, France, April 22\u2014(Æ1)\u2014The insurgent fleet, led by the cruiser Canarias, today captured or sank a score of fishing boats in which Government militiamen were attempting to get from Catalonia to the coast farther south to join the forces of General Jose Miaja.Insurgent despatches said the smallest of the Government ships, which were hugging the coast, were taken by fishing boats the insurgents had armed, while the Canarias and other units of the fleet captured a number of small steam craft.Most of the fugitives made their dash down the coast at night, but the insurgent navy spotted them with searchlights, The militiamen previously had belonged to the command of General Miaja, now Commander-in-Chief for all Government Spain except isolated Catalonia.They were caught in the Tortosa sector when the insurgents drove through to the sea at Yinaroz last Friday, driving a wedge between Catalonia and other Government territory.FLAMES CAUSED HEAVY DAMAGE AT MILLINGTON Quebec Yielding Industrial Prestige By Taxation System Large Barn and Two Attached Silos Owned by Mrs.Benoit Lost in Fire\u2014All Livestock but Cow and Calf Rescued from Building.Millington, April 22.\u2014Fire of unknown origin completely destroyed a large barn and two attached silos owned by Mrs.Benoit here yesterday, together with a cow, a calf, a small quantity of hay and some farm implements.Volunteer fire fighters drove all the livestock from the barn with the exception of the cow and calf.Fortunately there was no wind, or the nearby horse-barn and large residence might also have fallen prey to the flames.The fire-swept barn replaced one razed by flames a number of years ago when the property was owned by the late Frank Patch.Mrs.Benoit had recently rented the farm to Frank Brousseau, formerly of Magog, and moved to an adjoining farm were a new house is under construction.Insurance amounting to two thousand dollars was carried on the destroyed

today published an \u201cauthentic\u201d tabulation of German and Italian forces fighting in Spain.The accusations by the Spanish embassy were contained in a communique which read: \u201cOn April 16th, the German general staff decided to keep control of all operations on the Pyrenees frontier.That night five high officials left Berlin by air for Durgos.The command in the northern front in Spain is at present in the hands of German Generals Wolf, of the German Air Force, and Witershein, of the 14th Army Corps.\"On April 14th and loth, sixty-three officers left Munich in Junker planes,

on which the very existence of civilized society depends.In short, the failures of democracy\u2014and I will admit, as you will admit, that there are such failures\u2014are not due to the low quality of our citizenry, nor to the low quality of our leaders.They are not due to some defect n our political system.They are due to the single fact that, because the individual citizen has been too ready to regard the government as something to serve him, and not himself as some one to serve the sia\u2019e, we have implanted in our public life a lasting belief that democratic government must always be based on sectionalism and appeals to narrow interests.\u201d ____!_____________________Honored by the City of London 'with the rank of Freeman, Sir Ed-jward delivered a penetrating analysis of democr-atic government, and.!

dollars more each year,\u201d Mr.Dewan told a service club.\u201cThis additional expenditure must be provided for by more efficient farming, by the application of science, the application of any economic factor that will increase returns and by better farm management as well.\u2019\u2019 These factors are \u201cinevitable\" and farmers generally must face them as \u201crealities,\u201d he

made accessible to every young farmer who cannot avail himself of a course at one of our agricultural institutions.\u201d Governments can give only guidance, direction and assistance, said the Minister.By organization and co-operation, farmers must learn to help themeslves.\u201cI fear that in this Province they have not yet learned this truth: that what the Government can do for the farmer is insignificant compared with what he can do for himself.\u201d Turning to a matter of \u201cserious concern,\u201d Mr.Dewan said federal and provincial Departments of Agriculture were conducting

refused it, Mr.St.Jacques said he had been retained by Mr.Dionne in a conference at Callander two weeks ago.He had received no reply from the Attorney General and supposed \u201cthe Government does not know what to do.\u201d He declined to make public the text of his letter to Mr.Conant.The Ottawa lawyer indicated the purpose of the request was to determine whether the fortune the youngsters have built up\u2014now estimated at $750,000\u2014is being dissipated.He said that while Mr.Dionne was aware guardianship books are audited by Government officials he was not satisfied their funds were being conserved properly.It has been estimated that $2,000 is spent each month in keeping up the Dafoe nursery where Annette, Yvonne, Cecile, Marie and Emilie live, one hundred yards from the humble home where they were born.This covers Dr,-' Dafoe\u2019s salary of $200 a month, a grant of $100 a month to their parents and salaries of teachers, nurses, housekeepers and guards, as well as nursery expenses such as food, clothes and heat The object of the guardians has been to establish a large enough fortune so that the interest will keep the girls, who will be four years old May 28.An act of the Ontario Legislature passed March 15, 1935, made the quints wards of the King until their eighteenth birthday.Appointed as guardians were Dave Croll, then Ontario Minister of Welfare, Dr.Dafoe, Judge J.E.Valin, of North Bay, and Mr.Dionne.The children\u2019s father has attended only one meeting of the Board since last June.Mr.Croll stepped out of the picture on March 8, 1937, with the statement that the quints\u2019 business had grown so heavy\u2019 he could not handle it.He added he thought their affairs should be taken out of politics and moved an amendment to the Guardianship Act making the official guardian of minor children in Ontario a quint guardian.This office now is held by Percy D.Wilson, former Ottawa lawyer.Besides Dr.Dafoe, Mr.Wilson and Judge Valin, the quints have a business manager in Keith Munro, former Toronto newspaperman, and William Flannery, of North Bay, is secretary-treasurer of the guardianship.The present Board replaced one set up July 26, 1934, when A.W.Roebuck, then Ontario Attorney General, said it was necessary to save the little girls from \u201ccertain death\u201d through exploitation.A few days after their birth their father had signed a contract to exhibit them at the Chicago World\u2019s Fair, later repudiating it.Dr.Dafoe and Oliver Dionne, grandfather of the children, were on the Board.The first guardianship, which was for five years, was agreed to by Dionne but he has never publicly endorsed the second Board.He opposed his children being made wards of the King and fought to have them returned to his care.He petitioned the Ontario Government several times and in March.1936, wrote to King Edward VIII in an effort to regain their custody.The petition to the King was referred to the Dominion and then the Ontario Government, eventually finding its way to Mr.Croll.Mr.Dionne\u2019s attitude in recent months has been that while he admitted the children would not have lived without the assistance of the Ontario Government, the time for that assistance has passed.He told friends he would not object to some form of government supervision of their business affairs, but demanded the right to bring them up as members of his family with their three brothers and four sisters.It is believe he planned building a large home to replace the humble farmhouse where the quints were born on May 28, 1934, bringing his family of twelve children and he and his wife, Elzire, together, Their latest chiid, a boy, was bom April 5, their second child since the quints arrived.The same plan has been entertained by the guardians.Dr.Dafoe often has said he would favor having the family live together if numerous obstacles could be cleared away.Recently Judge Valin expressed the same opinion.In her few public statements on the subject, Mrs.Dionne has pleaded with the authorities to return her babies to her.She sees them now as often as she wishes.The Dafoe nursery is only a hundred yards from her home and she and her husband rarely miss a day visiting the youngsters.Further separation of the family has come within the past few days.Ernest, twelve-year-old brother of the quints, became a student at College Apostolique St.Alexandre at Ironsides, Quo., near Ottawa, yesterday, and their sisters, Rose, eleven, and Theiese, nine, were enrolled as students at the Ursuline Convent at Quebec City.Their expenses will be paid out of guardianship funds.WILL STUDY REPORT BEFORE TAKING ANY ACTION Toronto, April 22- IP)\u2014Attorney-General Gordon Conant said today he would take no action on Oliva Dionne\u2019s request for a judicial inquiry into the management of the quintuplets until he had studied a report by Percy D.Wilion, K.C., official guardian, who made an investigation recently.The Attorney-General said Wilson\u2019s investigation was made at the request of Dr.Allan Roy Dafoe, physician to the quints.The report reached the Attomey-Generai\u2019s office this week.____________

qualities of their leaders.This would seem a departure from the rule that the government of this country is always a government of Jaws and not of men.He was not suggesting that the election of any political party on such a basis would place a dictator in power, but he did feel that the major political parties of this country would come to general and lasting agreement on many of the major questions in principle and therefore he doubted if the difference would be sufficiently clean-cut to make distinctions of platform and policy as appealing to the voters as the qualities of the men who head the parties.He cited national defence, the duty of the community to labor, provisions for unemployment and distress, education, public health and agriculture, and asked his hearers ho-w two great political parties could go to the people with policies diverging to any real extent on any of these points.Leaden Mutt Show Faith in Syitem Faith in democracy was the first quality needed by leaders of a democratic community.Those leaders must believe that the people given all the facts could be trusted to decide wisely.Democratic leaders could not descend to appeals to prejudice, should neither be guilty of ingenious perversions of the truth, nor should they place party before principle.Government by party was not intended to be a struggle for pow\u2019er, but a method of obtaining discussions of public issues, thq,s permitting the public to judge fairly.\u201cIt is essential to keep in our minds tne phrase which distinguishes the British system from ail other forms of democratic government,\u201d Sir Edward declared,' \u201cthe custom of referring to the administration of the day as \u2018His Majesty's Government.\u2019 As long as we keep that fundamental fact in mind we shall be saved from one of the most destructive dangers to parliament-ary government.We shall he saved from the wholly erroneous and dangerous belief that His Majesty\u2019s loyal opposition exist for the single purpose of destroying the reputation and authority of His Majesty\u2019s government of the day.i appeal to you young citizens to rememuer that the government of tne day is definitely His Majesty\u2019s Government.\u2022Liberty makes it necessary that we i snail nave the power and the right | to criticize its actions with absolute freedom.No tiiought of disloyalty can possibly interfere with the right and duty of those who disagree -with j the policies of the government to I criticize them, and to call for their | amendment.What is necessary, however, is that we should remember that criticism of this sort is only : useful provided that it is constrvc-! live,\u201d .People Responsible if System Fails Sir Edward contended that if the people of this country feel that : democracy was not providing them with a truly representative govsrn-| ment then the fault was that of t;.e people.Democi\u2019atic Government presupposed that the citizens would use their electoral powers ail the time.It assumed that voters would take an active part in framing platforms, preparing appeals, choosing candidates and conducting campaigns which was the very machinery of democracy.\u201cIf you do not play your part in this; if you sit idly by and leave to small group:, of more active men and women the task of organizing elections, then you have no right to clamor that your participation in the affairs of the country ig limited to choosing between two candidates,\u201d he emphasized.Canadians had tried strange roads to better government.\u201cHave we tried the slower road of building our characters as individual and our character as a nation?\u201d he asked.\u201cHave we tried, with grim determination, the slow and painful process of making the nation belter by making its people better?Have we not, perhaps, in seeking short-cuts to making the nation great, rich, wise and happy, forgottert that national greatness, wealth, wisdom and happiness can but be the resultant and the sum of these qualities in the citizen?Hag not the time come to reconsider our road to national success, and to consider whether, in too great eagerness to achieve, we have

four week# before lambing the pregnant ewe should receive better feeds in order to insure a good flow of milk for the young lambs.Alfalfa, red clover and other legumes make the best ^ hay?for breeding ewes; they are almost essential at lambing time.If they are not available, mixed hay which contains a fair amount of legume should be fed.Succulent feeds such more than one pound a day should be given as larger amounts are known to produce big.soft, flabby lambs which generally die soon after birth.At this time the feeding of grain is essential.The amount necessary will vary according to the size and condition of the ewe.Half to three-quarters of a pound per day of a grain mixture made up of two parts oats and one part bran is generally sufficient.If mixed or BIG SAVINGS on LOW MILEAGE MODELS!

to which the subsoil is saturated, it ! seeks a common level called the \u201cwater table.\u2019\u2019 While the gravitational water is important as the reservoir from which the soil and plants draw the necessary capillary water, it must not be forgotten that gravitational water is injurious to plants whenever there is so much of it in the soil that it fills the pore-spaces in that part of the soil inhabited by plant roots.In fact, a | saturated condition of the top soil and upper subsoil layer during the j capillary moisture there is no free or gravitational j water in the pore-space.The only land in which this condition exists the year round is land with good : sub-surface drainage, or good under- S drainage.Hygroscopic water is a : thin film of condensed vapour sur-rounding each soil particle, incapa-j ble of movement and unavailable to 1 plants.The following are some of the indications of the need of improved drainage in farm lands: 1.\t\u2014Pools on the surface in wet weather, as on lands with no natural slope.2.\t\u2014Baking and cracking of the surface where land is heavy.3.\t\u2014Stunted grain crops, in com-pany with red top, sorrel, and mare\u2019s tail.4.\t\u2014Heaving of fence posts, grasses and clovers in spring.5.\t\u2014Dark, moist spots or streaks , and springy places on slopes or hillsides, denoting seepage from higher j ground.6.\t\u2014A high water table as shown by the level to which water will rise when a hole is dug in the ground.Greater Uniformity Within Litter, Lessened Mortality and Less Drain on System of Sow Also Follow Creep Feeding.Compilation of litter data at the Dominion Experimental Station, Rosthern, Sask., revealed that creep feeding the suckling pigs gave heavier pigs at weaning, greater uniformity within the litter, lessened mortality and less drain on the system of the sow.Moreover, acquaintance with feed prior to weaning resulted in no setback in gains and the total feed consumed by the sow was less.Creep feeding is looked upon with much favor by farmers who consider hogs one of their main enterprises, as it eliminates sudden changes in feeding practices and rations and results in more constant and consistent daily gains in weight.The average weight per pig in numerous litters having access to the creep was 36.4 pounds, many pigs averaging forty-five pounds and one entire litter of seven averaging fifty pounds, while in the case of the litters having no access to creep feeding during the suckling period, the average weight per individual was only 24.2 pounds: a difference of over twelve pounds in favor ol the creep-fed suckling pig.The weaning date was fifty-six days in all comparisons made.Since a critical stage of a pig\u2019s life is from weaning to ninety days, the gains made in weight during this period more or less regulate the subsequent rate of gain of the litter.The importance of having the young suckling pig well acquainted and accustomed to skim-milk and meal prior to weaning is therefore apparent.Findings indicate that the heavier pig at weaning is not so j subject to scouring and digestive j troubles.In large litters the young | pigs started to take milk and mea.jat two to three weeks, whereas lit-i ters of four to six pigs hesitate to jtake feed in the'creep for the first j four or five weeks.The meal ration 'fed in the creep should be low in !

purposes, and oilcake for stockfeed-I ing, and fertilizers.The bulk of ! peanuts in world trade is made into \u2019 oil.Canada imports a small amount of peanut oil for soapmaking and canning fish.India and China are fhe chief peanut growing countries.Canada in 1937 was the chief market for woollen tissues exported from Great Britain, importing 17,-700,000 square yards, as compared with 15,300,000 square yards in 1936.Second place was taken by ! Argentina.In imports of wool ' \u201ctops\u201d from Great Britain in 1937, the chief market was Germany.Eire (Irish Free State) was second, and Canada third.Owing to abnormal climatic conditions, alsike seed production declined sharply in Ontario in 1937, exports falling off badly this season as a result.Only about 200,090 pounds were exported.Most of it went to the United States but a few shipments were consigned to the United Kingdom and other coun-u-ies.This is a different showing as compared wuh a few years ago when annual exports amounted to 8 to 12 million pounds.A much larger crop, however, is expected for 1938 as the alsike has wintered well generally and there is a much larger acreage in Ontario than for some years.Alsike is one of the dependable export seeds grown in Canada.European countries and the United States want the seed but it must be satisfactory in quality.Canadian growers should not overlook the fact that quality is the deciding factor and means the difference between profit and loss in growing the crop say officials of the Plant Products Division, Dominion Department of Agriculture.By quality is meant freedom from weed seeds and good colour.The former I, may be attained by sowing No.1 alsike on clean fields and by hand pulling and spudding the w-eeds before the crop is harvested.Good colour is extremely important also, and this results largely by harvesting at the right time and permitting as little weathering as possible.In the spring, before growth really starts, is the best time to spud out the catch-flies and campions, the bane of alsike in many localities.Their broad leaves show up well on the relatively bare fields in early spring before growth starts.The growing of more and better alsike seed should be profitable to those who will take the trouble to produce clean bright seed.FERTILIZERS FOR HAY AND GRAIN ARE DISCUSSED ville Experimental Farm, Points Out that in Many Districts of Southern Que- I maintairied.Commenting on commercial fertilizers for hay and grain, H.R.j Parnell, of the Lennoxville Experi-j mental Farm, points out that in many districts of Southern Quebec, | the regular use of commercial fer-jtilizers is not general.A small | quantity is usually purchased to use \u2022 pounds, jon roots, potatoes or corn, but only; two cheese vendors of Canadian cheese have adopted this method.In 1 1927 Canada supplied British Gui-1 ana with 139,865 pounds of cheese.New Zealand sent 85,865 pounds; the United Kingdom, 17.854 pounds, and foreign countries 47,486 in relatively few cases is any fertilizer applied to the grain and hay crops.The purchase of fertilizer is still not considered by the majority of farmers as a necessary annual investment.The result of this mav For seed, feed, and fertilizer i analyses in Canada, Dominion seed laboratories are located at Sackville, -Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Win- ; nipeg, Saskatoon, Calgary, and Van-1 couver.Micro-analysis is made of ; CRACKLINGS be seen in almost every section of ground feeding stuffs to determine! the Province in run-out farms with f},e constituents, and harmful weed , [their low crop yields and unproduc-¦ geed content.Feeding stuffs, fertili-j tive pastures.1 astures, grain and Zers, and agricultural poisons re- | hay constitute tne most important Ceive chemical analysés.The official | i crops in this Province.In view ot anaiySis is used as evidence to pro-i j this it \u201ceerna evident that evety feet Canadian farmers against! means should be taken to assure , fraudu|ent practices in the trade.1 ; good yields.That good results can be obtained j jfrom the use of commercial fertiliz-1 jers for hay and grain has been clear-1 |iy demonstrated by work done at! jthe Dominion experimental station,; I Lennoxville.These crops have been j I grown continuously for fourteen' ! years on land that has never receiv-l ]ed anything but commercial fertiliz-i \u2022r*.I The oat crop of this district was , j extremely poor in 1937.Notwith-' standing a poor season, the oats in i this experiment yielded nearly fifty) bushels per acre where a fairly lib- \u2018 oral amount of a complete fertilizer was used.This may be compared With about forty-one bushels per acre for oats grown with manure > only.Good yields of clover and; timothy have also been obtained,! running up to over two tons per j acre, which is considerably above | the average production of this district.From results of this expéri-jment, it has been found very cssen-j jtial to use a complete fertilizer if I ino manure is to be used.On the [light soil on which this experiment!

All other things being equal the larger cow is preferred and ail breeds have a standard of weight.As it takes feed, to produce milk, the cow must have capacity for feed, this will mean a well-sprung rear rib, a fairly long and deep body, good heart and lung canacity and deep broad chest.The fourth point to consider is health and vigour.This should be apparent in all breeding animals; to stand the strain of bearing young and producing a profitable milk yield the animal must have a good constitution.The summary of these points is, that the cow to be a profitable producer must have health, vigor, soundness, superior dairy temperament, large capacity for food, good heart, lungs and circulatory systerh Farm or Driving Horses You will always find the horse you want at the Demers Stables' heavy or light, work or driving horses for all purposes.R.M.DEMERS AUCTIONEER DEALER IN HORSES OF ALL KINDS Whether you intend to sell all the farm effects or only some household furniture, you would do well to secure the services of R.M.DEMERS Rates arc reasonable and he has a vo|j established reputation.9 King Street West.Tel.1005 BUY YOUR CHICKS FROM A CERTIFIED HATCHERY Provincial Government Controlled Flocks are headed bv K.O.F.males coming from hens with records of not less than 225 eggs weighing over 21 ounces to the dozen.The breeding flocks were thoroughly culled and blood tested.They are fed for vitality and high hatchability.1 he average hatchahilitv runs from 70', to 82', \u2014 the highest record of all Co-operative Hatcheries in Quebec Province \u2014 which proves the vitality of the breeding stock.Write now for our price list for strong and healthy chicks of the following breeds: BARRED ROCKS NEW HAMPSHIRKS LW1 HORNS RHODE ISLAND REDS\tWHITE ROCKS Ask our price on started chickens (one week to three months old) for New Hampshire,s and Barred Rocks.DAY OLD COCKERELS FOR SALE EVERY WEEK.CO-OPERATIVE HATCHERY OF SHERBROOKE Tel.2583 il Depot Street, Sherbrooke.HEALTHY STOCK I ESSENTIAL FOR 1 BERRY GROWER I' - Use of Certified Raspberry j\tBushes Best Means of Pre- j\tventing Spread of Disease Through Plantation.! The ultimate life and productivity of any raspberry plantation jis closely related to the prevalence !of mosaic and leaf curl diseases.This is particularly true in the case of the more susceptible varieties which cannot be maintained on a profitable basis where these diseases become general.Whether or not they become prevalent depends largely on the amount of disease present in the newly set plantation.; It is from diseased bushes that subsequent spread throughout a planting occurs, and experience indicates that where these diseases are present in the young planting they may increase to two or three times the amount before the planting comes to full bearing.This is to be expected since the manner of spread is through insect (aphids) transmission as they migrate from diseased to healthy plants.The rapidity of spread, of course, will be determined by the number of diseased plants present and the aphid population and their activity.Aphids \u2018are nearly always present, but arq |of importance only if virus diseases are also present.It is evident, then, 'that the control of these troubles ^depends either on eliminating the | disseminating agents (aphids) by 'spraying, or the sources of infection by planting only healthy canes.| Experiments show that the former jis costly and not practical, while the flatter is simple and gives excellent ! results.Healthy planting stock is !the first requirement and this can 'only be obtained by rigid selection of growing canes, or using certified 'raspberry stock.It is questionable if a grower can make use of an older fruiting planting for selecting planting stock, since mosaic is likely to be prevalent and sometimes difficult to detect.Consequently, he is very apt to introduce disease into the new planting.It was for this reason that a system of certification of raspberry planting stock was started by the Dominion Laboratory of Plant Pathology at St.Catharines, Ont.In order that the best stock be provided, regulations governing its production require that canes forkertifi-cation must be grown in special propagating beds in which all fruiting wood is removed.This facilitates inspection work and gives a bettei rooted cane for transplanting.Such certified canes have been available for a number of years and this type of stock has been very successful in checking the incidence of virus diseases.The us-e of such stock is an assurance to the grower that he is carrying out the first essential in the control of the major raspberry diseases.This practice will always pay in longer-lived plantings, greater production and more satisfaction.Repair Of Machinery Important Farm Task Farmers Should Repair Mechanical Equipment So that No Delay May Be Experienced When Spring Seeding Operations Commence \u2014 Speed of Seed Drills Should Be Checked.Agriculture has become a very highly mechanized industry and much depends upon having the farm machinery in good working order when it is needed.Especially is this true of seeding and harvesting machinery, for delays in performing1 these operations are extremely costly.Experiments conducted at the Dominion Experimental Station, Kapuskaaing, show a decrease of from one to two bushels of barley per acre for each day that seeding is delayed beyond the earliest possible date.Similar trends, although not quite so marked, have been indicated by experiments conducted with oats and wheat.From one season to the next, one is apt to forget that certainrrepairs and adjustments are required by certain machines and these matters are often overlooked until forcibly brought to one\u2019s attention at an inconvenient and costly time.Especially is this true where several operators use the same machines.Dealing especially with machinery for spring work, the essential points are that such cultural machines as cultivators, disks and harrows should have their teeth or blades properly shaped and weil sharpened.It is well to remember that cultivators and disks have a much lighter draught when their cutting edges are shaped, sharpened and adjusted properly, also they penetrate better into hard soil and thus prepare a better seed bed.Seed drills should be checked for rate of seeding.This can be done by jacking up the machine, filling the seed box with seed, setting the indicator at the desired rate of seeding, engaging the gears and revolving the land wheel the same number of turns that it would make in sowing an acre.The amount of seed discharged through the spouts, whicn has been gathered on a canvas previously spread under the machine, is then measured and checked with the amount for which the indicator was set.If an error is found, it must be corrected by adjusting the regulating mechanism which is controlled by the indicator.Several trials at different rates of seeding should be made.It should be remembered that drills are made to sow by measured volume and not by weight, as there are often wide variations in weight per bushel.For instance, thirty-four pounds oats occupy the volume of the standard bushel, which is the standard used in calibrating seed drills.Often oats run from twenty per cent to thirty per cent overweight per measured bushel, which necessitates allowing for this variation when seed is weighed out to be sown by the drill which measures by volume.Other seeds are similarly affected but not to such a marked degree, as the precentage variation in weight per measured bushel of oats is greater than with other common seeds.pounds of alsike and eight pounds of timothy per acre may be seeded with the oat crop.Where alfalfa grows well, four to six pounds may be added and the mixture seeded at the rate of sixteen to twenty-pounds per acre.Where areas intended for pasture are winter-killed a similar procedure may be followed.A suitable mixture to provide pasture the year it is seeded is composed of oats, two bushels, and Sudan grass, twenty-five pounds, per acre.The oats will provide early pasture and Sudan grass, although somewhat slower in starting, grows well during the dry, hot weather of midsummer, and provides pasture later in the season.Grass and clover may be seeded with the mixture for next year\u2019s hay or pasture, as grazing if not done too severely does not injure the new-seeding.It is advisable to reseed these winter-killed areas as early as possible in the spring.acV.^ .cPtClAV\tVt ° imo'0\u2019 Slj\u2019 Bed*'**\tRad'5\"' StfcftifdaM ACCOUNT BOOK IS IMPORTANT FACT BUILDER WINTER KILLED PASTURE NEEDS SPEEDY CROPS Properly Kept and Analyzed, Oats Thickly

knowledge of breed type is needed.Although the points for a good cow hold true in all breeds, breed type must be kept in mind when judging a pure-bred or a grade of a particular breed.Good type and high production must be combined.Modern farming is a business and to be successful should be conducted in a business-like manner.Farming has developed to the stage where it is a commercial enterprise in which the character of the management largely determines income and profit.It involves the production and sale of commodities as well as the use of capital and the purchase of supplies and labor the same as most other kinds of business .Present conditions in farming emphasize the importance to tne farmer of having a record of his business transactions as well as a permanent record of other details of his farm enterprise to which he can readily refer.The problem ot the farmer is to meet conditions in such a way that his farm will give him the most satisfactory net returns, year in and year out, for the use of his investment, his labor and his managerial ability.Many farmers realize that some change or adjustment in their combination of enterprises or methods of management might increase their farm income.They may be unable, however, to determine what changes to make owing to a lack of records on which to base any changes in enterprises or methods.A farm account book, properly kept and analyzed, is the fact finder for the fanner.An account book points out the weak spots in the farm business and points out the holes through which the profits have leaked.A farm

climatic conditions which 'prevail during the winter and spring, j It may be intermittent freezing and j thawing, and heaving of the soil, \u2019which breaks the plant roots.Lack jof snow covering may result in in-jsufficient protection from low tem-; peratures, or ice may form a covering which smothers the plants.Whatever the cause, the farmer is faced with the problem of reseeding his meadows in order to provide pasture for summer feed and hay for winter forage.What is the most suitable procedure?It has been found by the Field Husbandry Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, that if some plants have survived and the killing has only thinned the stand, it may be quite satisfactory to scatter seed of the proper mixture over the area and cover it with a smoothing harrow.Such a practice does not injure the surviving plants and ! the new seeding will later grow and thicken the stand.In most cases of severe killing, however, all of the plants in low! spots or depressions may be injured, j or perhaps an entire field may be ; affected.Where this occurs, it is j more satisfactory to disc or cultivate : the area thoroughly and reseed with a seed drill.In order to provide hay for the current year it is necessary to use a species which will produce a crop the year in which it is seeded, j A very suitable crop for this purpose : is oats seeded at 2 ta or 3 bushels ! per acre, A very good quality of ; hay may be obtained if the oats are j cut when in the milk stage and harvested like any other hay crop.If hay is desired on the area the following year a mixture
