Field breakdowns and delays while waiting for replacement parts will be even more expensive than usual as they may subject increasingly valuable crops to weather hazards, Also, more direct savings from early overhauls are probable as there are not the ex tra charges for telegrams and express' for early repair orders that may be required with rush shipments, Where overhauling by hired mechanics is needed, more time and attention may be expected now than later on when emergency calls for services are fre quent. is desired to include White Clover, one-eighth part should be added to the mixture.

Rayleigh’s, Dept, ML-453-S- D. Ready-Mixed Feeds There is no lack of choice in ready- mixed feeds from which Canadian poultry raisers may select their re quirements. In 1936 no less than 1003 brands of feeds, the product of 276 manufacturers, were registered under the Feeding Stuffs Act. This is an increase of ten per cent, over the pre vious year and does not include up wards of 100 brands of mixed supple mentary weeds designed to supply proteins, minerals and vitamins to balance home-grown grains. The majority of feeds registered were mashes, as whole scratch grain mixtures made by blending the com mon grains are not subject to regis tration. Laying mashes as usual were Selecting New Farm Machines A new machine should be purchas ed only after due consideration of its usefulness to the purchaser. A little thinking before buying will save time, worry and expense later. The size and capacity of new ma chines should be considered in -the light of future as well as present needs, since the machine will likely be used for many years. Price is'im- portant too, and it is well to view it from the standpoint of extra value, reputation of the manufacturer, avail ability of repair service, and suitabil ity to one’s particular needs. Since modern methods require speed and durability, a comparison of today's models with earlier models' should show many improvements. This is particularly true with respect to bear ings, lurbication methods, and design for strength and mobility. The greatly increased capacity of most modern farm machines has made it wise to consider their co-operative use by several /farmers. So far the most satisfactory method of doing this has been through hiring or cus tom work. Unfortunately in many cases operators have failed to put cus tom work on a businesslike ■ basis. There is still great room for the de velopment of more efficient and more ’ satisfactory methods of co-operation as between neighbouring farmers, in the use of farm equipment. Check Your Fertilizer Needs for 1937 What fields were manured last fall and winter? Did they get a heavy or light covering? If yields were light last year, and if the planus to sow oats, barley, mix ed grain or corn where the manure, was applied, it will most ,likely pay to add 200 to 250 lbs. per acre of 0-12-6 or 0-12-10 or 20% Superphos phate. More bushels of better filled grain have resulted where the plant food was well balanced. Rate tests on sev eral farms gave an average increase in yield of oats of 23.5 bushels per acre where 2-12-6 was sown at 250 pounds per acre. For oats, barley and mixed grain on soils of low fertility where cer eals follow crops which have not been fertilized, apply 250 pounds per acre of 2-12-6 or 2-12-10, the latter on lighter soils. Where spring grains follow hoed crops which were manured or fertil ized heavily, apply 0-12-6, or 0-12-10 at 250 pounds per acre. For barley grown for malting pur- ply 250 pounds per acre of 2-12-10.

Are fertilizers all ready? Every farmer in Ontario should be able to answer "Yes” to these three questions by the end of March. An old adage says that “A job well be gun is half done.” Nowhere is this more vitally true than in the grow- OTi tHc ettid stij? Ontario farmer who can answer “Yes” to the above questions on April l,$t has his season's job well begun. Make Best Use of the Old Equipment Until the expected increase in the farmer’s income has become a real ity much old machinery will have to be used. It will be well to remember that in order to take advantage of any possible improvement that may come in farm business the best poss ible use should be made of the equip- ment we have. Just as soon as the soil is dry and firm enough to walk upon after the snow has ■ disappeared is the time to commence operations for ensuring a good- lawn. The first thing to do is to remove all the dead grass by giv ing the lawn a thorough raking and attention should be directed to fixing up the bare patches by sowing fresh seed. The seed should be broadcast evenly on the bare patches after they have been raked to the depth of two inches. The seed should then be cov ered lightly with a sprinkling of sift ed soil and packed down firmly. The patches should be kept moist, but not flooded, for at least two weeks by the application of a fine spray, Fertilizer is necessary for the lawn and should be applied just as soon as the raking and seeding have been, done; and as soon as the fertilizer has been applied it should be well water ed in, care being taken to use a fihe spray, so that the seed is not disturb ed in the newly- seeded areas. When the time for cutting arrives, which is as soon as the grass is long enough to allow the mower to function pro perly, regularity in the process should be observed, and it is a mistake to allow the grass to grow over two in ches at any time.

The vitamins are not drugs; they are foods, and we all need plenty of them. A good all round diet, properly cooked, should give healthy adults enough of all of the vitamins. Children and infants how ever need some extra vitamin D, and to get this they should be given cod liver oil in some form during the win ter. We need milk, butter, cheese, green vegetables, carrots, and liver for vita min A. We need whole wheat flour, oatmeal, liver, /heart and kidney for vitamin B. Yeast and wheat germ are especially rich in this vitamin. We need oranges, lemons, tomatoes, lettuce, celery and other fresh fruits and vegetables to provide vitamin C. Ordinary foods contain very little if any vitamin D. In the summer-time the sun make^ this vitamin for us free when it shines on our skins but in the winter-time many children need to get it in some other way which fortunately is obtainable in cod liver oil and some other fish oils. If we eat such poor meals that any one of these vitamins is missing com pletely, we may get a serious disease, such as scurvy from lack of vitamin C, and rickets from lack of vitamin D. If we eat too small amounts of these vitamins we are apt to suffer from lack of energy, and we are more liable to get infections and to suffer more severely from them. A well balanced diet requires milk, meat, eggs, fruit and vegetables. The young child may require to supple ment this in the winter months with some cod liver oil.

ECONOMICAL YET 9 DELIGHTFUL By Betty Barclay Too often women hesitate to prac tice economy when preparing^ dishes for guests—fearing that a leak pock et-book will be too evident. Economy dishes can be delightful dishes—unusual, tasteful, and appetiz ing. Furthermore, they can be rich in food value, in minerals, salts and vitamins—dishes you need never be ashamed of, no matter how patrician your guests may be. Here are two economy Lima bean “The new maid wants three nights out a Week. What do you say to that?” “I wish I were the maid?’ —Moustiqtie, Charleroi. ICE CREAM — MAKE YOUR OWN By Betty Barclay When the family used to clamor for ice cream, busy housewives felt like staging a sit down strike all of their own. But nowadays, modern short-cut methods qualify ice cream for a place on every copk’s easy-to- make list. Nutritionists give this uni versal nourishment favorite an Al rating for wholesome nourishment and recommend it for every-day use. The secret of scoring ice cream triumphs with little effort is to use sweetened condensed milk. It’s the perfect ice cream mix, whether you use an automatic refrigerator or crank up the freezer. You need only ■three ingredienls and only one cup of cream to produce the smoothest, creamiest ice cream you ever ate. It’s positively guaranteed free of ice crys tals. Ice cream made with this magic milk is so economical you can afford to treat the family several times a week. One ca.n of sweetened con densed milk makes two batches of ice cream in your automatic refriger ator. ORANGE ICE CREAM (Automatic Refrigerator Method) % cup sweetened condensed milk % cup orange juice % tablespoon grated orange rind 1 cup whipping cream Blend sweetened condensed milk, orange juice, and grated orange rind thoroughly. Chill, whip cream to cus tard-like consistency and fold into the chilled mixture. Pour into freezing pan. Place in freezing unit. After mixture is about half frozen remove from the refrigerator. Scrape mixture from sides and bottom of pan. Beat until smooth but not until melted. Smooth out and replace in freezing, unit until frozen for serving. Serves six. CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM (Freezer Method) « 2 squares unsweetened chocolate 1% cups (1 can) sweetened con densed milk 1 clip cold water 2 cups thin cream or evaporated milk Melt chocolate "in top of double boiler. Add sweetened condensed milk, and stir over boiling water for 5 'minutes until mixture- thickens. Gradually add water and thin cream or evaporated milk. Blend thorough ly. Cool and freeze in 2-quart freez er. Remove dasher. Pack in ice and salt for 1 hour or more after freez ing. Makes 1% quarts. DUNCAN MARSHALL MAY RUN IN BRUCE (Tara Leader) The rumor has persisted the past few Weeks that Hon. Duncan Mar shall, Minister of Agriculture, - will contest Brilce riding at the next Pro- V! SMRFE’S VARNISHES FOR EVERY PURPOSE— INSIDE OR OUT Buchanan Hardware, Wingham vincial election. What truth there is in’ he rumor we art not prepared to states as we are on the outside look ing on, as far as the strategy board of the Liberal Party is concerned. However, it is generally conceded the Honorable Duncan has no chance of being re-elected in the Peel riding, where Hon. Thos. Kennedy, former Minister’ of Agriculture in the Con servative Government, has been nom inated under the Conservative banner, so it is logical toxsurmise that the Liberal Government is anxious to find what they consider is a safe seat,, also the fact that Mr. Marshall is a native of the County will naturally enter into the decision. Whether the sitting member, Mr. J. W. Sinclair, would agree to such an arrangement is also doubtful. In conversation, with Mr. Sinclair on Mnoday, he would neither deny nor confirm the rumor. A Fish Story? Yes, says the old timer, I knew of a chap who had a dog so well train ed that when he took down the rifle the dog knew they were going hunt ing deer; when he took the shot-gun,, he was going for rabbits. One day- the owner got into his hunting cloth es and, to fool the dog, took down the fishing pole. The dog disappear ed, after some searching he was found back of the barn digging fishworms.
