If you really must send your greetings by Long Distance, won't you please do so a few days before, or a few days after Christmas -not on Chrjstmas day. This will be part of your contribution to Canada's war effort. c I ts.tUot-is Communication.

Geo. Martin, Clerk: How To Reduce Farm Crop Production Costs Unless production' costs are care- fully controlled, the present increase in farm revenue may result in no in- crease in profits, says H. D. Mitchell, Field Husbandry Division, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. Farm operations will have to be thoroughly planned, in view of the current Short- age of farm 'labour and new farm machinery. Labour is. going to be the most im- portant factor in the cost of producing farm crops, and every possible means should be adopted to overcome the present shortage, and keep down the cost, Neighbourly co-operation will have to be exercised to an extent un- known since the pioneer days. Fancily labour will have to assume a greater share of the work. Machinery on hand Will have to have its use prolonged by timely overhaul and repair. Trac- tors and other equipment may be in- creased service if used co-operatively or hired out to neighbours. ,production costs may be lowered through an increase in yields per' acre, brought about by the use of im- proved varieties , and cleaner seed. Weed and plant disease control will increase yields. Producing the great- est possible volume of home grown feed will reduce feed costs, insure an adequate supply, and save time and expense in purchasing feeds. Improve- ment of pastures by reseeding and fertilization will lower costs, increase production during the summer season, and put cattle in ,better condition for the winter season. .
