AU crops use the same plant
foods, but in different propor
tions. Most soils contain the var
ious mineral foods needed • ex
cept nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash. To get the best re
sults in return for the labor ex- p ended, commercial fertilizer
containing the above three plant
foods in propei* proportion
should be applied to nugar beet
fields at planting time. It must
be emphasized, however, that
such application does not take
the place of barnyard ‘'manure-
or of green manure plowed
under.
Every good system of keeping
soils productive will combine
certain .fundamentals, which in
addition to the use of cmmerc-
ial fertilizers, barnyard manure
and/or plowing under of cover
crops, will include rotation of
crops in .which sugar beets may
appear once in four or five years
on good fields. There are a num
ber of rotations but all good
ones include a legume, such as
alfalfa, at least once in four

Twenty-one Farm Forums met
in this county oh January 23.
Last Monday night was a review
night, so many Forums held a
social evening and no report was
received .at the Federation office.
On January 23 there were five
hundred and forty-six in attend
ance at the Forum gatherings.
• Where Forums are in opera
tion there is a noticeable in
crease in the interest shown in
Federation work. Why not start
a Farm Forum group on your
line this week? Just get someone
from a neighbouring Forum to
come and help you organize, or
if this is not possible just drop
a line to the Federation office
in Clinton and we will arrange
for someone to help you organize
a Farm Forum group.

The battle is still on to raise

investment.
The campaign is on again to
have all cattle in this County
sprayed .for the eradication of
the warble fly. This work has
achieved favourable results in
the past few years. It is to be
hoped all townships will see fit
to continue spraying the cattle
this year,
Township Federations are be
hind this work and they should
see that the Petition is circulat
ed in plenty of time to get the
necessary 66% of all the cattle
owners signed up. It is then up
to your township council to pass
a By-Lay and make arrange
ments to have the spraying .car
ried on and a competant inspec
tor provided.
■Some townships circulated the
petition last year and got as
high as 97% of the cattle owners
approval.
