Good Advice
AboutConstipation!
A doctor would tell you that the
best thing to do with any ailment
is to get at its cause, If you’re
constipated, don’t fiddle with
makeshift remedies, Find out
what’s giving you the trouble!
Chances are you won’t have to
look yery far, if you eat just the
things most people do. Most like- '
ly, you don’t get enough “bulk”!
And “bulk” doesn’t mean just a
lot of food. It means a Airad of
food that isn’t consumed in the
body, but leaves a soft “bulky”
mass in the intestines and helps
a bowel movement.
If this is what you lack, your
ticket is crisp crunchy Kellogg’s
All-Bran for breakfast. It con-
- tains the “bulk” you need plus
the intestinal tonic, vitamin Bt.
Eat it every day, drink plenty
of water, and join the “regulars”!
All-Bran is made by Kellogg in
^London, Ontario,
producing areas and by excessive
rains in regions east of the Mississip
pi river.
Essential* Elements
The • three "essential” elements of
fertility are nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash. These elements hav*e re
ceived this name, not because they
are any more essential to the growth
of crops than the other nine or ten
elements entering into the composi
tion of plant tissues, but because they
are the three elements which must
be constantly returned to the soil if
its productiveness is to be maintain

Small Potato Crop
According to the first estimate just
issued, the 1938 potato crop in' Can
ada is placed at 36,643,000 cwt. This
is the smallest .crop on record since
1915, and is 14 per cent below that
of 1937. Short crops in recent years*
were 38,000,000 cwt. in 1935, and
39,000,000 cwt in 1932 and in 1936.
The October first estimate of the ’38
United States potato crop is 373,275,-

MAKING CANADA
A Better Place in Which to Live and Work |
I A Series of Letters from Distinguished Canadians on Vital Problems I
| Affecting the Future Welfare of Canada , g
I Specially Written for Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association I
LETTER NUMBER 28
Dear Mr. Editor:
While I consider it a great honor
to be requested onz behalf of. the peo
ple “down by the sea” to express
their views on "How to make. Can
ada a better place in which to Live
and Work”,' I feel that my outlook
may be somewhat limited and sec
tional.
I have liyed^all my life in the east,
and naturally feel its limitations be
cause of its industrial* setbacks in the
past twenty-five years.
I have seen great and thriving in
dustries wrecked, whole towns and
villages turned- into "ghost towns”
by consolidations and mergers where
the plants have beeji closed down and
thousands of men thrown out-of em
ployment.
Naturally my thoughts turn to
some form of social security; some
way of preventing the wrecking of
such industries and the consequent
misery of working men and their
families who have been deprived of
a livelihood and the loss of the
means of security by the-vanishing
of real estate Values.
Our people are essentially laboring
people, 2nd some means should be
provided to furnish work for them.
Large and thriving industries in
other sections of our great Dominion
which have been responsible for in
dustrial mergers should plan to keep
our small industries functioning.
We are favorably situated for ex
port business through our great sea
ports', and w‘e feel that such indust
ries which were built Up here ,could
be,employed along these lines.
Our citizens forJthe most part, are
thoroughly loyal to our British eon*
nectiohs and to our Dominion but
when they are deprived of a means
of livelihood by influences beyond
their control their thoughts naturally
turn to the "isms” of radicals.

The new Seed and Grain Show
promises to assume an importance
commensurate with - Canada’s inter
national status in grain growing, and
as a result of the improved, crop and
economic conditions, the entries from
the Prairie Provinces promise to cre

poultry has been largely increased
and practically a whole floor has
been taken for what will prove to be
an outstanding industrial exhibit by
the combined efforts of the poultry
industry of Canada, the Dominion
Department of Agriculture and the

Western Ontario Fruit Crop
Weather conditions have been fav
orable for the development and har
vesting of all fruit crops. .*
Apples have sizpd and colored ex
ceptionally well. Although scab and
late infestation of coddling 'moth
were quite prevalent in some areas,
fungus and insect pests generally
were kept under control in Well .cared
for commercial orchards. Hail dam
age has been comparatively slight
and confined to the occasional local
ized area. Damage by wind has also
been negligible, the only serious loss
reported being to one orchard in the
Georgian Bay district.
Conditions -were favourable for
good development of plums. Some
brown rot was in evidence in most
varieties throughout the season, but
no serious loss was incurred.
With the exception of some loss
by brown rot in peaches, 'particularly
in , the Rochester variety, and a
somewhat greater than usual amount
of split pits, caused by excessive
moisture, the quality of the fruit was
generally good,
The quality of pears was excep
tionally good this season. The crop
was practically free from insect in
jury and sizing was above average.
Harvesting of plums, peaches and
pears has been completed.
Hopper damage to grapes was
quite prevalent’in many vineyards,
but the quality of the fruit was very
good. Owing to continued mild wea
ther the light crop is practically all
off the vines. The low bunch set re
duced production which is now esti
mated at 45% below that of last sea
son.
Fall Preparation of Sod Land for
Grain
A good grain crop is one of the
best forms of farm insurance and
may well determine the difference
betyveen success and failure in our
farming operations. One factor that
has” a direct bearing on the yield se
cured is the time of seeding. In nor-

‘Therefore I feel that if Canada is
to be happy and contented our great
industrial corporations should not
centralize, all industry in central Can
ada, but should bear in mind the
needs of the east and west.
-I feel- that we should cultivate the
finer feelings of brotherly love, It
has been said that corporations have
no soul. While this statement is not
true in many cases, it is unfortunate
ly apparent in some.
We should, through our papers and
by example in our daily lives, foster
brotherly love, kindlier feelings to
wards the under dog, and a helping
hand td the unfortunate. *
We are living in difficult times.
The great majority of us feel social
ly insecure. Our pressing need today
seems to be softie means to prevent
this, some form of social security.

mal years, the earlier the crop can
be seeded, the better chance there is
for a satisfactory yield. To seed ear
ly, the land must be partially prepar
ed the previous fall,, particularly sod
land.
Experiments have been conducted
at the Dominion Experimental Farm
at Nappan, N.S., during the past fif
teen years comparing various meth
ods of soil preparation for the grain
crop, Comparisons are made of oat
yields following sod land ploughed
at different times. August ploughing,
followed by top-working, has given
an average yield of 49.6 bushels. The
same treatment followed by ribbing
late in the autumn has averaged 52.9
bushels; ploughing in September and
top-working, 51.9 bushels; October
ploughing with top working, 50 bush
els and without top-working, 50.5
bushels < ploughing shallow in August,
top-working and reploughing late in
autumn averaged 51,6 bushels; and
ploughing in the spring, (no autumn
treatment), average 48 bushels.
The' results indicate that on med
ium clay loam soil, fall ploughing is
preferable to spring ploughing. Top
working of fall ploughed land does,
not appear to be an economical prac
tice, except,’ for weed control. Early
ploughing and frequent top-working
aids in the control of perennial
weeds such as sow thistle and couch
grass and also annual weeds, as mus
tard, wild radish,, hemp, nettles, etc.
