A preacher at the close 'of one of

Presently .every man, woman and

THE ALL YEAR .;JOG CABIN
•
(Experimental .Faris Note)
With lowered •prices for pork pro-
duce, it is essential to keep produc-
tion costs correspondingly low in
order to show °a profit at the end of
the year's operations. It is partici'.
larly important to expend as little
as possible on overhead charges suck
as building and equipment from wliich,
no direct revenue will be received:
Where old farm . buildings or barn
spaceis available, the housing pro•
blew with swine is not a serious one:
Some .swine breeders, however, have
to provide accommodation for -their
swine, and these are advised of the
successful. use of the all. year hog
cabin at the Central , Experimeitt'al
farm, Ottawa.
. Under the rather extreme climatic
conditions which prevail at Ottawa,
the swine breeding stock is housed
throughout the year in cabins, with
the exception ' of two months twice
a year when the gown ,• farrow and
burse 'their litters in the main swine -
barn. In th : whiter, the sows are fed
liberally and the cabins are Well
bedded with d'ri1 straw. In the spring
the cabins are bawled to the pasture_
and with the side flaps raised up,
provide eitc'ellent shelter and shade
during the summer months:
The all year hog cabin is a cheap
shelter constructed of one ply boards
and is built on skidsto provide ease
for busing }the detaila_and_plana
-of moving._ urthet l year hog cabin
can be procured free of charge upon

DO.THRESHMEN SPREAD , •

Yes is the answer in both cases,
says the _ Chesley. 'Enterprise. -,The

not take time to, clean the weed

another.
The' -careful thresher on the other
hand always has his. Mill , properly
adjusted for type Of grain •he , is
threshing.- He makes sure bis 'mill is
fed :properly and that the weed
Screens are clean and doing the,
work for 'which they were intended._
He watches the grim spout • carefully
to make' sure his mill is doing a
clean Joh at all times. He cleans and
sweeps his mill carefully before ploy-
to
iovto the next •firm, and thereby re-
presents a very important link in the
chain of weed control activities..
The threslierman, while doing •a
job, is in the employ of the farmer
and is largely influenced by his de-
sires. If he wants a rushjob the
thresherman often • tries to oblige
hint by 'crowding his mill and not
taking . time to keep it properly 'ad-
justed; With the result that grain is, '
often -poorly cleaned, 'with' consider-
able loss• from grain being blown out
with the straw.
g Farmers. and thresherimn alike,
should be very careful that ataok
threshing' is done in such a manner
that Sow. Thistle and other weed's
are prevented from bloigiug to neigh-
boring property.
T'lie. tarifa tliresherman is tru` y
a credit to his industry and ib 'very
largely responsible' for preventing.
many weeds fro spreading ¢ruin
one" farm to another.
•- -This- is - the season' when nulniel

Mims for cutting weeds and the tore

venting the spread of Weed' seeds by
