lower end of the pipe is efficiently
sealed in the rock, also that the top
of the pipe is sealed in the cover.
Otherwise surface water may trickle
down the pipe into the well.
If the well is shallow and wide,
the walls of the well should be made
impervious to an adequate depth.
Ten or twelve feet is the usual depth
recommended for the impervious
wall which may be of concrete, pud-
pled day or cemented tile. The
wall should be continued upward
one foot above the surface of the
giound. By this means, surface wa
ter must filter through a depth of
tep or twelve feet of earth before it
can enter the well, and if the earth
is in a reasonably clean condition,
the water thus becomes purified.
Further safeguards are the
ing of the area immediately
rounding the well, fencing to
ver.t the approach of animals,
refraining from using fertilizer with

In order to have pullets laying at
their best in November and Decem
ber, the months of high priced eggs,
the following points should be ob
served according to the Dominion
Poultry Husbandman:
.See that the pullets have dry and
bright quarters.
Have the houses clean and sani
tary without draughts.
Give a well balanced ration and
be sure to give enough.
Don’t forget that green feed, pre
ferably clover or alfalfa.
If you have milk give the poultry
what they will take.
Keep the laying pullets or those
that are near laying by themselves.
■Give these everv icomfort and at
tention they are the money makers.
Your treatment of the pullets now
may mean profit or loss for the rest
of the year.
Dispose of hens too old or pullets
too young, it costs too much to feed
them.
The time of scarcity is the time
to arrange for your market for the
whole year.

1935 when 338,396,970 pounds of
butter ar.d 39,572,341 pounds of
cheese were disposed of. In 1934
the consumption of butter was 33 6,-
824,894 pounds, or a per capita con
sumption of 31.12 pounds. Between
1933 and 1934 there was an in
crease amounting to almost a pound

about three-quarters of a pound
above the 19 33 figure, and less than

she would try to answer in her talks

“When did you begin to write*?” to
which she answered, "As far back as
I can remember.” In her books her

were three brothers. Hugh Mont
gomery’s wife was seasick during the
whole voyage. The ship ran out of
water and a stop was made at Prince
Edward Island and the captain told
her she would have to go ashore.
It was at that time covered with
woods and Mrs. Montgomery was so
glad to land she exclaimed “Here I
stay.” Her husband had to land
there, took up a homestead and had
seventeen children, all of whom liv-

Wintering the Bees
Beekeeping is an important
dustry in Canada and one of
vital factors in building it up is
preservation of bees in winter,
most parts of Canada, winter is
so hard on bees as might be imagin
ed, and in some respects wintering
is easier than in a milder climate.
At the same time there are three
important factors necessary for suc
cessful wintering, the neglect of any
one of which will either cause the
death of the colony or so seriously
weaken it that it becomes unprofit
able to the producer. These three
factors are (1) strong, that is to
say, populous, colonies, consisting of
mainly, young bees (2) an abun
dance of wholesome stores, and (3)
adequate protection from cold and
changeable temperatures.
Bees do not hibernate in the true
sense of the word. When it becomes
cold, they form a compact cluster,
and the bees in the heart of the
cluster generate heat by muscular
activity. This activity, of course,
necessitates the consumption of
stores in proportion to the amount
of energy expended. The bees on
the outside of the cluster act as in
sulators to prevent the escape of
the heat generated. It has been

in-In a recent interview, cheerful
formation about the gradual lessen
ing of unemployment in his district
was given by Mr. 'George H. Langan,
Superintendent of the Ontario Em
ployment Service for Perth, Huron
and Bruce Counties,
“I am very much encouraged by
the steadily increasing demand for
labour,” said Mr. Langan.
In the two years he has occupied
his present position Mr. Langan has
made strenuous efforts to widen the
usefulness of the Ontario Employ
ment Service by going out into many
municipalities in his district and in
viting the municipal clerks to co-op
erate by registering applicants in
their own area, so that contract work
will be more equitably distributed
among those on relief and those who
George H. Langan
have struggled to keep off relief but
whose ’plight may be even worse
than those on relief. Splendid suc
cess has met his efforts in this re
gard.
Every effort will be made. Mr.
Langan said, to persuade employers
to encourage their workers, when
they were laid off temporarily or
permanently, to register at the Em
ployment Service Office at Stratford.
Steps will be taken, too, he said, to
try to encourage employers to use
the services of the government bur
eau. Heads of industries will be
asked to not only report their labour
needs, but to advise the Employment
Service when men are employed.
“Men who register at our office
when seeking work have the advan-
l take of a service which is provincial
wide,” said Mr. Langan. "It would
be more ‘beneficial to employees and
employer .alike if cur services were
more widely used.”
