T11I !GIST HURONS
Prom mese the sea came the pleading
cry
"Oh save ue from the Hun."
Our answer went when we said good-
bye
To the boys of the Oae•Six.One,
They are noble boys and we love them
all,
They are Huron's joy and pride,
They responded to the Belgians call
And their comrades who had died,
They donned the khaki as they made
the vow
That they would e'er be true,
But oh our heartR are lonely now
As the vacant chair we view.
Still we think of the cause for which
they leave,
And altho our hearts are ead.
We try to pray instead of grieve
lror our brave boys khaki clad.
They are Briton's sons right through
and through,
These Hurons true and brave,
You can count on them their bit to do
That the Union Jack may wave.
To Goa above wo breath !hie prayer
Till fighting all is done,
Oh guard titetu with Thy love and
c,re,

POULTRY NOTES,
fS staesseasn.w,evsesse.s.sev-e.+�.ssti.
Hens need exercise during warm
weather. If they are confined in close
quarters dig up n few rude of the runs
aur] keep the ground moist so the lay-
e.rs will scratch. Feed them gran in
litter and make them serateh it out.
This will afford exercise.
The incubator has many advantages,
but none are more apparent than that
:t does not transmit lice to the young
.:hicks. Old Biddy does, and that is
one reason why she should be kept
busy laying while the incubator hatches
leer brood.
Hens naturally like a dark place is
which to lay, and such a place can be
provided by a box tight on all sides,
Into which is cut a hole large enough
to admit the hen easily about foot
Itches from the bottom.
A small piece of camphor about the
size of a grain of rye daily and ten
ti.Ceps of camphor or turpentine added
to a pint of drinking water le said to
be a good remedy for the gapes.
Save Clover Seed,
Saving clover seed should be ono of
the regular routine duties on every
farm. The high price and the uueer-
tainty of being able to secure good
seed more than justify the labor and
expense of saving seed for home use
i7
nothing more. It is only an item in
/Q well organized system of diversified
arming. We are printing a cut of a
gatherer in the shape of a comb or
stripper which any farmer can make
for himself and with which be can
easily save seed sufficient for his own
use. Other methods will suggest them-
selves to you when the time comes,
only do not fall to save the seed. -

The End ot the War
The general impression among
men who ought to know, is that
the war will be over in a few
months, or a year at most.
We then may look for an era
of expansion and developement
such as Canada has never
known. This will mean busy
factories, increase of population,
demand for houses and higher
prices for real estate.
The Moral ls—"Buy your
home now."

cellent properties for sale at

The Baker's Lament
(Canadian Artny Navvies')
You've read about the heroes, upon
land and sea,
Who've had decorations pinned on
by the King.
I'll tell you of a worker, he's a hero,
not it shirker,
ILA the boy who wakes the bread at
Brautehott Camp.
His bakeehop Isn't math, Or yet
quite up to date,
Just like his sleeping quarters, We a
tent,
It may be fine in summer, but in win.
ter it's a hummer,
When the cold wet rain cornea trick-
ling through each rent,
The ovens that he bakes in, are open
to the sky,
.And when lit, they turn the dark.
nese into day,
Now they are broken up and busted,
and to bake in, can't be trusted,
Melees the oven doors are plastered
up with clay.
The long deep boxes that the Govern•
ment calls troughs.
Are more like some old "dug.outs"
stripped of har k,
They're rotten things to 'ntix in, and
will take a lot of fixing,
They were used by Noah's baker in
the ask.
He commences making dough in that
beastly awkward trough,
It's mixing, turning, cutting, all the
time.
When at'laet his task is finished and
his final turn adminished,
Yon can bet your life he's earned his
dollar dime,
He gets no extra pay for the work he's
done that day
And they are really very sparing
with their clothes,
They treat it as a joke, when he's
blinded by the smoke,
He's just used as a machine for mak.
ing doughs,
Unlike bis brother Tommy, who has
his day of rest,
(Lror in training, Sunday always
counts as free,)
You will find him working harder, to
provide for Tommy's larder.
Who will raise the duece if he's no
"punk" for tea,
He may not be a hero, who has faced
the enemy,
Or been mentioned in dispatches
from the front,
But when the war is over in the Army
Settvice Corps,
We the baker you will find who's
borne the brunt.

HERE is no part of Canada
where apple production is more
successfully carried on than in
the Annapolis Valley Qf Nova Sco.
tla. The principal reason for this,
apart from Lila tact that soil and
ClilnatiF nontlitions are Favourable,
is •tiat, practically all of the large
cotemeretai orchards are situated
in a continuous and closely coin
" Valley" iy
proximatelynettedchain. 80 milTltees ap-
in ]pl►gth, with
an average width of a miles. There
are about 40 shiitping stations in
that area, all being an the main lino
of the Dominion Atlantic Railway
with its terminus at Italifax. Con-
sequently the facilities for shipping
and for export are perfect.
• There is one other reason for
the success with which fruit grow-
ing is carried on in clava Scotia,
and that is the eystematie manner
in which, the,;rtz S la marketed. Over
Qne•half'er' rtbe entire apple crop is
packed and Marketed co-operative-
ty. Each particular section of the
Annapolis Valley has its own co-
operative association, and ail these
subsidiary companies are responsi-
ble to one main selling association,
the United Fruit Companies. All
of the fruit marketed by this organ-
ization is uniformly packed in ac-
Lordance with specific grading rules
and marketed under the brand of
the central selling body. The de-
tails concerning the operating me-
thods of the Unitel Fruit Compan-
ies (too lengthy to be outlined
here) are well worth careful study.
'their headcrierters are at Berwick,
which is the principal apple:: ship-
ping station.
By far the greater portion of Nova
Scotian apples is exported to Great
23ritairi, the principal market being
London. In the year 1311, which
was a record season, almost 2,000,-
00
,000;000 barrels of apples were marketed,.
At that time Nova Scotian fruit was
Introduced in the Prairie Provinces.
There is every indication that ship -
menta to those markets will bo in-
creased, inasmuch as the Graven -
stein apple, for which Nova Scotia
is famous, statures at a time when
apples are in great demand in the
Canadian "!'rest, Agrowing trade
is also being devptoped with Settee
America and South Africa, corres-
ponding geographically to the trade
lu apples between British Columbia
and Australla.
It le rather interesting to note
that the apple barrel used in Nova
Scotia domains only 96 quarts, a5
Compared with the 112 quart barrel
of Ontario. The Canadian Govern.
u
ent regulations call for a mluinlutttt
iYftl, er t d quarts and Nova Scotia
nas adapted that minimum. Tho
difference in the size of the 1ao bar-
rels must therefore be always taken
into consideration when comparing
the prices of Ontario and Nova
Scotia apples in any particular mar-
ket.

About 15 per cent ot the apples
marketed in Neva Scotia are Ctt'a-
