speed estimates are.avallable, a
farmer can calculate the horse-
, power needed to pull each plow,
says Professor Hughes, or the
horsepower for any tillage tool
if the estimates are available.
The calculation is made by mul-
tiplying the pull force by the
speed in miles per hour. The
result is then divided by 375.
In the above case, therefore,
the 5-16 plow figure is reached
dividing by 375. The result: 51
hp. A similar calculation shows
the Mailer plow needs 56 hp.
Using the 5-16 plow Would mean
an average saving of 5 hp to pull
the plow.
A smaller tractor could be
used and less fuel per acre would
be needed to run the larger plow
at a lower speed and still have
it cover the same area in the same
time.

Management of the breeding
boar is critical to the success'
of a breeding unit.
Young boars require more
careful attentid1 than aged bears.
With increased selection for rate
of gain, boars are reaching 200
lbs. as young as fiye months of
age." Since sexual maturity is
associated with age rather than
weight, many 200-pound boars
are not ready for service. Boars
are raised on a full feed pro-
gram to achieve maximum rate
of gain with intake from a self
feeder as high as 9 pounds per
day. If full-fed boars are placed
on a limit feed ration there can
be p. drastic reduction in energy''-
intake.
It is a_ good practice to ac-
quire a new boar some time
before he is needed for service
as most , boars are sold at ap-
proximately 200 pounds. Then
feed •6 pounds of a balanced
14% protein ration until the boar
reaches 400 pounds. The feed
may then be reduced to 5 pounds
and varied with the boar's con-
dition and amount of service.

A ydung. boar should -not be
used before eight months of age
and then the number of services
should not exceed tivo per week.
This requires hand mating as
the number of inatings cannot
be controlled if the boar is
housed with a group of „sows.
Also,. he may 'breed one -sow
several times and fail to set-
tle the other sows - in heat at
that time.
As a boar's age increases,
he may be used mere-frequently
until a mature boar may be used
every second day on an average
or every day for a short period
of time if followed by several,
days of rest.
A smalinp,„. ercentage of boars
are. infertit&41ue to structural
• abnormalities. 'As some of these
abnormalities 'are inherited,
. boars should not be selected
from lines which have repro-
ductive abnOrmalitie's. Limited
Use of a young boar will in-
. dicate his fertility without risk-
trig too many sows not settling.
• If a-young boar fails to settle
a normal -number of sows, he
should be examined by a ve-'
terinarian, , to determine if the
cause, of infertility can be cor7,'
• ' recteil.
It is a good practice to have
' an area to which both .the boar
and sow are moved for breeding.
After several breedings.the boar
will associate moving to the area
with breeding and will work more
rapidly than if the sows are
moved to the boar's pen. The
proCedure at mating should be
carried out routinely without dis-
tractions to reduce time and in-,
crease concentien rate
It has been possible in- the
,,past to ignpre many of these
precautions because boars of the
Canadian breeds have been ex-
ceptionally aggressive breeders,
With the introduction of less ag-
gressive Hampshires and Durocs
it hat been' necessary, to pay
very close attentionto boar ma-
nagement.

DEAR DORIS - Some , people
know I feel very hurt when they
tease me. They take advantage
of me and tease me all the more.
I am even afraid of my little
brothers who are 14 and 13, and I
ad 21.
My older brother is taking a
male nursing assistant's course
at a mental hospital, and when I
get upset he always says- that he
deals with emotional children
just like me. Then he says:
"Cry now, baby. Do'you want a
handkerchief?"
Please, do you have any way
you can help me to get a sense
of humor? And please send me
your leaflet, "Don't Be Shy."
-CRYBABY
DEAR CRYBABY- Oh dear. The
more you cry, the more• he'll
tease. Which makes you cry
more. ` '
Try to get the message that
teasing is his, own inferior way
to feeling superior. Also, talk
yourself out of the sensitivity
that indicates your own self-
d9ubts,
Force yourself to be
blara("dumb and. deaf when the
boys go at you. I'm promising
you they'll subSide if ydu do.
DEAR DORIS - A friend of
mine who works with me is
always going to the, boss about
everything I do.
Should I tell' my: 'boss about
this, or should I tell her I am
not going to take, it from her,
any more? I need the work and
I don't want to,leave it.
-WIDOW G
WMS Has
Meeting
First Church W.M,S. met in
the Centennial Room of the
Church with 20 answering the roll
call. Mrs. Xeys opened the meet-
ing with a poem "As Men Rejoice
In Prayer". "I Love to Tell the
Story" was sung and the scrip-
ture legson was read by Mrs.
Cairns taken front Matthew the'
28th Chapter.
Mrs. Drover led in prayer.
Mrs. Jack Thompson, the group
leader, took charge of the devot-
ional part. Mrs. John Thompson
gave a reading on ,(The Memory
of Easter Is Not Enough."
Mrs. Waddell and Mrs, Jack
Thompson, sang a duet '.He
LiveS" accompanied by Mrs.
John McGregor. The Study Book
on "Communism in China" was
given by Mrs. Van Rooijen. it
was 'planned to have Spring
Thank-Offering meeting of -the
W.M.S. and Barbara Kirkman on
April 15th -when Rev. G. L. Royal
of Goderich will speak.
DEAR WIDOW - Tell her first.
You may surprise, her. Bossy
people are inclined to think they
know it all until someone shows
they are alive and kicking too.
You don't have to act angry
to sound firm, But be firm.
DEAR DORIS - I would like to
know whether, if I sent out cards
announcing a new arrival,• this
would mean that Im asking for
a gift.
- EXPECTING
DEAR EXPECTING -' No. And
it is a delightful custom. Friends
are flattered that you want them
to share in your joy. If they
• care. to, they'll send a gift; but
the announcement implies no such
expectation.
EAR DORIS - Could you advise
m where I could write to find out-
about my family tree? Please
state the cost if you know it -
for the research work.
-INTERESTED.
DEAR INTERESTED - Two
places in London, Eng., will trace
your ancestry. They charge by
the hour or the day, because some
trees are harder to dig up than
others.
The Society of Genealogists,
31 Harrington Gardens, London
S.W. 7, England, charges $3.50'
per hour or $26 a day. Brooks
and Simpson, Genealogists, 59
Wigmore Street, London W.
are also in' the business, but
I don't have their charges
handy.'
DEAR DORIS - 'I ddn't care to•
get rick, but I do need security
for later years. My husband is
mentally sick; he tried to kill
me twice. My daughter wrote
to me and said if her father
treat me good she would
take me away from him but I
don't Want to impose on them if
I can help it. •
A ' while ago I wrote to you,
and you told, me how to make
money at home. Now tell me
•what to do with the money I
have to invest, $5. at a time. It
isn't ,much but it'S a start.
-RAINY DAY
DEAR RAINY DAY - I once
heard •:of - a gal who struck oil
when, she was digging in her
basement to make a root cel-
lar. Then• there was the educa-•
tioniSt Who started a school with
$9. The race, track once in a
while pays off at tremendous
odds. SO does)the -stock market.
For the many thousands who
phinge into get-rich schemes,
there is a mere handful .who
don't lose their shirts. - Your
best $5 investment is in a good
solid savings plan recommended
by your bank manager.
Ask him about this.Believe
your daughter and get her help
if you need her.

Professor H.A.Hughes,School
of Agricultural Engineering, On-
tario Agricultural College, Univ-
ersity of Guelph, gives the fol-
lowing figures as an example:
A farmer has a choice of
using two different plows: a 5-
16 (a plow with 5• bottoms, each
16 inches wide) or a 4-16. Oper-
ating the first plow 2. 3 mph and
the second at 3.75 mph will mean
that each plow will do an acre in
thirty minutes. But which one re-
quires more power to pull it?
Professor Hughes says that%
in an average soil the 5-16 ploW
will need- a force of 6,400 lbs to
move at 3 mph. The smaller plo'w,
moving at 3.75 mph, will need
5,600 lbs. force. The force re.-
quired to pull a machine will in-
crease with the speed the machine
is going. Research has now de-
veloped equations to estimate a '
pull at 'a given speed in a par-,
