Rambling With Lucy
(Lucy R. Woods) .
Mrs. R. H. F. Gairdner reported that on Monday she picked
the first snowdrops:—a sure sign of spring!! And some little
folk were out lodking 'for .signs of spring to take to school.
They fell in the slushy water on the street and went into
someone else's house to get dry, for mother-would be cross
(not an unusual occurrence in spring).
And Lucy wasted two afternoons and evenings looking over
the seed catalogues. They've been a source -of enjoyment off
and on for the last two months. When they first arrived,
Lucy could see all her favourite flowers in orderly well-kept
beds: and' rows in the garden: But the nearer the planting
season approaches, the more she realizes' that she'll have to
cut down her list.
With a sigh she strokes off one variety, and turns the page
to, cancel a rare new development. And' so it goes! And
after:spending so much time, the order amounts to two pack-
ages' of zinnias. Lucy discovered that they will grow and
bloom in the midst of weeds and drought.
The sun is bright, the 'snow is melting rapidly; the air has
that certain feeling and the sunset that look of spring. The
birds' are twittering. The cardinal is, whistling and allowing
his lady to feed at the same station. And in all probability
the sap is running •and' the puSsy willow buds
And just in case it is cold and stormy on the first official
day of spring, we have all these signs to reassure us that the
long winter is dying. Maybe there'll be a few "kicks" yet
but they cannot last long. The joy of spring will soon be.
with us. And' life will start anew!
After the snowdrops come the gay ,little crocus, and by
the time they are in bloom the hyacinth, daffodils and other
spring flowering bulbs are showing. Then, too, Lucy will
be told how many roses the frost and rabbits have killed.
Even plant life needs protection for survival.

Concerning eWirfe, Mr. Under-

duced about eneethird of the
hogs in Canada, and H.14105.1
stood 'forth 'in the province for
numbers of hogs,
"However," said Mr. Under-
wood, "only 37.9 percent of the
hogs proidu.oed in Htlean are
grade A. In 'the Maritime,
where about the same number
of hogs are produced, the aver-
age is 51.8 percent Grade A."
The speaker noted that five.
Pement of Ontario's production
went tic the Ihilted States, and
this, export market was •import-
ant so far 'as price ' was eon-
corned, ""Don't be fooled about
that market," said Mr. Under-
wood. "The States are quickly
changing their type of hpg to
a meatier animal. This will
replace some o our cuts, -and'
we could lose' those sales."
He noted' that a reduction in
pork eonsumption is due in met
to the quantity and price of
broilers. "We've got to keep
up the quality," he said.
Underwood advised buying
ROP tested boars, because lit-
ters would quickly repay extra
cost in better feed conversion,
and time to market. He noted
there was a premium available
from the Live Stock Branch on
purchases' of ROP tested boars.
