series of meetings and lectures arranged\u2019 by Mr.E.N.Blondin foi the benefit of the farmers of the district opened in the O'Connor Hall Monday afternoon and in spi e of the prevalence of flu about 150 attended the first session.Mr.Andrew Philps, M.L.A.made a few remarks welcoming the lecturers, then Mr.Blondin introduced Mr.Storey of Worcester, Mass.whose subject \u201cMilk Production and Milk Consumption\u201d was of more than passing interest.Mr.Storey believed that sentiment was not a factor in holding young men on the farm and went on to say that they would go where the big money was.If they could be shown that the most money could be ac- acquired the easiest on the farm, the young men would not flock to the city.The man who consistently works and builds to increase his earnings by increasing his production was the man who wins out, and as the best farmers were the live stock men, and live stock was fundamental to the permanency of farming it was essential to build up the stock with a view to producing more milk at the minimum cost.We could not expect the consumers to pay a premium on in efficiency and our duty was to produce the most and the best at the least cost.advocated doing away with the \u201cgerub\u201d bull and securing a sire of a good breed, to build up the herd with a view to both type and productive qualities, and in a few years there would be herds which would be efficient money producers.While the average farmer, either through lack of capital or information would never become a pure bred stock man, stil] if he persisted in employing pure bred sires the strain would go on for years and eventually he would have a good type and line of merit.Mr.Storey lays stress on the fact that it is to the advantage of the producer to get quantity rather than quality, more especially where a standard of butter fat is used as a basis of buying the milk.Feed is a big factor, if not the prime factor, in raising a calf that will be a good milk producer, and in this connection Mr.Storey advised to feed normally.Do not pamper the animal, but let it run about, get plenty of fresh air and feed on refuse and better results would be obtained.A better market price could always be got for growthy stock than for runts.Not only does the market pay bigger pe \u201cWas There Ever a Pal Like You\u201d Another Winner ! \u201c1 Never Knew\u201d on the reverse side by the | 40 per cent to To this end, Mr.Storey | feed as they are and have been for the last two or three years, it costs about $150 to bring a heifer to milk and since farmers have started to feed along scientific lines they now produce more milk from a herd of half the size of what they had ten years ago.They feed the same amount but get more money with half the labor.Feed the cattle regularly and do not fuss with them.If cows are kept on the move they do not have time to make milk and the farmer will ask himself, What is the matter?\u201d but let him establish regular feeding hours and not too many of them and he will soon notice an increase in milk production.Mr.Storey is a firm bellever in changing the grain ration occasionally and recommends a grain mixture of 200__bran, 100_\u2014 corn meal, gréund barley or oats, 100_ cottonseed meal.meal or Gluten.Silage or pulped beets makes a good green feed and the cottonseed or linseed is an economical feed to buy because of the fertilizing qualities it gives out after going through the stock.One ton being worth $10 for that purpose, thus cutting down the original price of the ton of feed by 50 per cent.Mr.Storey declared the average cost to produce a quart of milk to be a fraction over 12c.This figure was arrived at by a committee of which he was a member, taking the averages of a number of herds throughout the N.E.States and striking a general average to submit to the Commission investigating the high cost of living.Linsced Milk as a Food Going on to the question of milk consumption, Mr.Storey illustrated the methods used to get the public to take up the use of milk as a beverage.The malin factor in this cam- palgn was advertising.Each producer contributed 30c out of every $100 towards an advertising fund and the country was flooded with posters, placards, etc, setting forth the advantages of milk as a food and these ads.were signed by the local health organizations.Another method was to introduce it into the schools.Investigation revealed the fact that comparatively few children had milk for breakfast with the result that about the middle of the forenoon they became drowsy and listless.About ten o'clock in the morning they were \u2014 \u2014 new baritone Joseph Phillips \u201cHis Master» Voice\" Record 216075\u2014$1.00 Get These Popular \u201cHis Master's Voice\u201d Hits! and play them on your

factories where milk was substituted foi tea and coffe?on the lunch carts.Make the people realize the value of milk as a food and there will be no surplus, they will buy regardless of cost.studied FARM POULTRY Prof.Jull of the Mucdonald College stuff gave a very interesting address on this important part of farm production.He said 90 per cent of the 658s consumed by the people were produced ou the farms, and the prico of egss hus risen greater than the price of grain feed.This district has an advantaga over others in its proximity to the Montreal markets which is one of the best on the North American Continent.Chicago, of course controls the American markets but Montreal being the distributing centre for the Last, could handle all the eggs and poultry produced within a4 wide radius.Mr.Jull emphasized the need for economic production and advised procuring a good laying strain, in fact this was essential as the demand is now greater than the production.Plymouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Rhode Island Reds and Leghorns are the best American breeds while of the English fowls the Orpington was the choice.In this district, the Barred Rock is the most popular and Mr.Jull advocates the estiublishment of one breed for a district in order to secure uniformity and thus establish a reputation for the district.To do this, a good plan Is to buy from the same breeder every year and keep to the same strain, i certain amount of in-brecding being necessary.As it is of prime importance to get pullets laving early in order to produce the greatest num- her of eggs during the winter months when prices are high, the chicks should be hatched carly in April.The late Springs of this section being a serious handicap in this matter, Mr.Jull advises the use of the incubator and brooder and recommends the American made machines.In this connection also the hardier fowls, such as Rocks and Wyandottes are preferable to the Leghorns which are more susceptible to climatic changes.The annual culling of the flock is advisable, weeding out the poor layers and using the best layers for breeding purposes.The Jewish population of Montreal pay big prices for old, fat hens,

the incubator and the use of a coal burning brooder ts recommended.As soon as the chicks are sufficiently matured and the weather permits they should be given free range, turned out Into the orchard or corn fleld where the soil is clean, and give them a chance to get strong and healthy.Housing of Poultry The poultry house should be of a good depth, 15 feet to 20 fee! and he dry and well ventilated.A good plan is to build a false ceiling of slats and fill in between fthat and the roof straw.The straw gbsorbs the moisture and helps to keep the house warm.For rations a grain mixture of two parts corn, 2 wheat and 1 oats is recommended while {the prepor- tions of mashed food would be 10 of bran, 6 of crushed oats, 5 of corn meal, 3 of middlings, 3 of heef SCTAPS and fed in a self-fecding hopper.For better egg production, mois \u2018a the mashed food and reduce the quantity.À certain amount of mineral food, green food and water Is also necessary and\u2019 where possible, sour skim milk should be fod ns it keeps the fowls healthy.The least of the farmer's troubles is the nuur- keting of his products.Froduce the goods and there is no trouble to sell.Mr.Jull says that In the near future certificates of breeding will ho issued.hased on the laying record and graded a.bees accordingly.\u201d For edible par poses, the Amerfean birds have preference in America on account of the yellow tinge to the skin and flesh, while in England the preference goes to the Orpington becanse of its peculiarity in furnishing white flesh.Mr Iildrebrand, a farmer was Nebraska the third speaker on the programme and took for his subject, breeder discovered that by loading a cow with hard fat and failing to breed her that she much could make a larger record for a year than she would have made under normal conditions, They also found that if they would mill a yearly cow four times ao day for the principal part of her lactation period that this would make a constderable difference In her total yield, und those who ecculd afford to pay the necessary labor done started in nilking cows four times 4 das.AH these things were aud allowable and Jo eral knowledge of the rank and file

of useless machines and dwellinr at some length on the uses and abuses of the present day small tractor.While not advertising any one particular tractor more than another, Mr.Hildebrand, whose wide experience would seem to make him an authority on the subject, hoiled down the different types until he had but two left, namely the four wheeled tractor and the caterpillar macline, (Continued on Page 2) VIEWS OF AN AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST Some breeder discovered that by drying a cow off several months he- fore she freshened and loading her with soft fat and then feeding her a narrow ratlon immediately after she freshened, for seven days or longer, the butter fat contents of her milk were largely increased.As soon as the rest of the breeders got wise everybody who had the time or the money and could successfully fit their cows commenced to fit them.It did not work out, in all cases, but in a lot of cases it did, says J.T.Williams in American Agriculturist.The result was that some cows that under the normal average test of the milk were unable to make 20 pounds of butter in seven days were by this process of fitting put into the 25 pound class, or in many cases even ; higher.It ralsed the normally 25- pound cow into the 30-pound class or | better.Breeders who for many reasons were not doing testing of their own or were unable to properly | fit cows fell over each other to pay | good prices for the produce of the ;rcal moerit so safely time record shall cover days, that cover a portod «à perlod of 10 long time record shall of nine months; that records be not made for any other periods than ten days And nine months.In other words, justoad of making the breading of Holsteln cattle a paying business for, perhaps, 40 or 50 breeders whe have been able to make most of the large 7 day and Yearly records, or perhaps confining it to not over 25 breeders who have been able to make 10-pound or 7 day or 1200 pound yearly records, we will hy these methods make the breeding of Holsteins a paying business for every man in the ranks of our 16,000 breeders, who is willing to give his cows good, practical dairy care and qualify them for the records they can make at, à profit under these ditions.Let that he our slogan: milk production and a year.We will then build stein industry on the con- profitable calf every the Hol solid rock of and 80 securely that nothing can stop the onward march of the Holstein cow until she becomes as she so richly deserves to be\u2014the universal dadry cow, me p\u2014\u2014 7 SEEDS 4 BIGGER 7 CROPS = ROM BETTER SEEDS == NA SOLD bY

Well, I know a worse onc.It's a house full of mysteries.By, by.con.Pleasant dreams.\u201d He sat up until late, meditating profoundly.\u2018Then, taking from fits envelope the letter yet unsealed, which he had written to Miss Ablgail Baker, he sdded this postscript: \u2018Eleven o'clork.1 have decided, Abble, to accept the gnardianship and the rest of it for a spell anybow.Shall notify the lawyers in the morning.Necessity Is one thing, and pleas ure Is another, 1 doubt if I find the job pleasant, hut | guess Ît Is neces.gary.Anyhow, it looks that way to te.\u201d Announcement of Captain Elisha's decision followed quickly.Sylvester, Kuhn & Graves received the telephone message stating it, and the senior partner was unqualitiedly de lighted.Kuhn accepted his assoclate's opinion with some reservation, As for Mr.Graves, when the information was conveyed to him by messenger, be ex pressed disgust and dismay.\u201cRidicu- | \u201cA barn full of rats is a nuisance, ain't it?\u201d lous!\u201d be said.\u201cDoctor, I simply must be up and about within the next few days.It Is necessary tbat a sane, conservative man be at the office, Far be it from me to say a word against Sylvester as a2 lawyer, but be ig subject to impressions.I imagine this Cape Codder made him laugh, and, therefore, in bis opinion, is all rigbt.I'm glad I'm not a joker.\u201d The captain sald that he would be down later on to talk things over.Meanwhile, If the \u2018papers and such\u201d could be got together, it would \u2018sort of help along.\u201d When Mrs, Corcoran Dunn made ber daily visit to the Warren apartment that afternoon she found Caroline alone and almost in tears.Captain Elisha bad broken the news at the table during luncheon, after which be went downtown, Stephen, having raved, protested and made himself generally disagreeable and his sister cor- spoadingly miserable, had departed for the club.It was a time for coufl- dences, and the wily Mrs.Dunn real: 1zed that fact.She soothed, comforted and within half an hour had learned the whole story.Incideutally she learned that a possible ve bundred thousand was the extreme Umit of the family\u2019s pecuniary resources.\u201cNow you kpow everything!\u201d sobbed Caroline, \u201cOh.Mrs.Dunn, you won't desert us, will you?\u201d \u201cYou may depend on Malcolm and me, dear,\u201d Mrs.Dunn declared.\u201cWe are not fair weather friends.And, after all, it is not so very bad.Affairs might be very much worse.\u201d \u201cWorse! Oh, Mrs.Dunn, how could they be?Think of it! Stephen and I are dependent upon bim for everything.We must ask him fur every peumy.And whatever he says to do we must do.We're obliged to.\u201d On Ttursday after luncheon as Captain Elisha set in bis own room reading a book he had taken from the library there came a knock at the door \u201cCome abead in!\u201d ordered the captain.Caroline entered.Her uncle rose and put down the book.\u201cOh,\u201d be exclaimed, \u201cis it you?Excuse me.1 thought \u2018twas the commo- | dere-Edwards, 1 mean.If I'd known you was comin\u2019 callin\u2019, Caroline, I shouldn't have been quite so bossy.\u201d \u201cThank you,\u201d answered his niece.\u201cI came to see you on\u2014I suppose you might call it business.At any rate, it is a financial matter.I sha'n't detain you long.\u201d Captain Elisha was a trifie disap- peinted.\u201cOh,\u201d he said, \u201con business, was it?I hoped\u2014] didn\u2019t know but you'd come Just out of sociability.However, I'm mighty glad to see you, Caroline.\u201d \u201cCaptain Warren,\u201d she began, \u201cI-I came to ask a favor.I am obliged to ask it because you are our\u201d\u2014she al- mest choked over the hated word\u2014\u201cour guardian, and I can no longer act on my own responsibility.1 wish to ask you fer seme money.\u201d .Captain Blisha nodded gravely.\u201cI see,\u201d he said.\u201cWell, Caroline, I don't believe you'll find me very close fisted.1 think I told you and Steve that you was to do just as you'd been ifn the habit of doin\u2019.Is your reg- lar allowance too sinall?Remember, don\u2019t know much about such things here in New York, and you must be and aboveboard and tell me ff have any complaints.\u201d have no complaints.My allow.ames is sufiicient.It is the same that give me, and it is all | the maids, Apnle, has and I wanted to help tt to of i .feller who burt him?| \u2018The captain nodded once more.\u201cAnnie,\u201d he repeated, \u201cthat\u2019s the rosy faced one, the Irish one?\u201d \u201cYes.Her father was seriously injured the other day and cannot work.His hip 1s broken, and the doctor's bill will be large.They are very poor, and I thought perbaps\u2019\u2014 She besi.tated, faltered and then sald buughti- ly.\u201cFather was very sympathetic and liked to huve me do such things.\u201d \u201cSho!

Go right ahead, Caroline.How'd the accident buppen?Auybody's fanit, was it?\u201d Caroline's eyes snapped.\u201cIndeed it wus!\u201d she sald indignantly.\u201cIt was a wet morning after a ruin, and the pavement was slippery.Mr.Moriarty, Annie's futher, was not working that day, and be had gone out to do the tamily marketing.He was crossing the street when an automoblle, recklessly driven, so every one says, drove directly down on him, He tried to jump out of the way and succeeded, otherwise he might have been killed, but he fell and broke his hip.He is an old man, and the case is serious.\u201d \u201cDear, dear, you don\u2019t tell me! Poor old chap! The auto feller\u2014did be help?Seems to me he ought to be the one to be spendin\u2019 the money, \"T'was his fanlt.\u201d \u201cHelp! Indeed, he didn't! He and the man with him merely laughed as if it was a good joke, put or\u2019 speed and disappeared as quickly as possible,\u201d \u201cWhy, the mean swab! Did this Mr.Moriarty or the folks around get the license number of the auto?\u201d \u201cNo, All they know is that it was a big yellow car with two wen in It.\u201d \u201cHey?A yeller car?\u201d \u201cYes, Somewhat similar to the one Malcolin\u2014 Mr.Dunu\u2014drives,\u201d \u201cSo, so!
