rnoiTti;• especially when we leave it
over a day? All through our silage
so ler we find little chunks' of silage
and when we break it open it is all
red inside and we find blue mould in
it. Some folks said there was not
enough juice in it. But our corn was
riper a year ago than it was this
year and it did not mould. Is a small
handful of salt morning ,and night
fed in the chop too much for a cow?
Answer: The spores of mould are
ever present in the air. As soon as
you expose silage the spores light on
this material and the sugary juices
needed? Me latter way would take
much of my time, which is valuable
at that season. -
Answer: Peas and oats make ex-
cellent green feed for cows during
late summer when pastures are fail-
ing. I believe you would be wise in
using this mixture as a green feed,
although reports are on eecord where
it has been successfully, put in the
silo.
H. C.: Kindly give me an estimate
of the amount and value of the en-
silage in a silo. There are twenty
feet remaining in it.. The silo dimen-
sions are 33 x 12 feet four inches. It
was aued to capacity. The corn was
cut on the day following the first

Answer: There are about 4Q tons
of silage in a silo 12 feet in diameter
and 20 feet deep. A reliable estimate
of values of good silage was given
by DireCtor Gorden, Geneva Experi-

• .Connecting Links. -Jesus put very
high value, In His teaching, upon the
siinple homely virtues of kindness
and thoughtfulness. In the last of the
three great parables of chapter25He
declares that the highest commenda-
• tion of Godeand*the richest rewards
of eternal life, shall be for those who
feed the hungry poor and show hos-
pitable kindness to the stranger, and
• clothe the naked, and visit those who
• are sick or in prison. , Even those
who do not know that they are thus
serving and ,honoring Christ are in-
cluded in His declaration, for, He
teaches, they who thus minister to
human needs arc truly minetering to
Him.

priest. The high priest at that time
was Joseph Gaiaphas, the son-in-law
of Armes, who had formerly held that
office and was stilt a person of great
influence and. authority. Gaiaphas
was appointed in the year A.D. 26 and
continued in office twelve ye.ars. The
chief priests and elders, some of
, whom • were members of the great
Jewish council, consulted that they
might take Jesus by subtilty. It

they feared an uprising of the people
and the consequent wrath of the Ro-
man authorities who would have held
them responsible. The city was full
of people, assembled for the pass -
over celebration, and many were from
Galilee and were friends and ;parti-
sans of Jesus and His disciples. These,
under the leadership of such men as
Peter, who, as we know, was quite
.ready and willing to fight for his
Master, might have made a great deal
of trouble, and as a result there might;
have been imposed upon the city a
severe punishinent or a heavy fine. It
is no wonder, therefore, that they
proceeded cautiously, and consulted
how they might quietly and secretly
accomplish their evil purpose, ,

6-13. When Jesus was in Bethany.
Just before telling' the story of Judas'
treachery, Matthew turns aside th tell
all incident of the previous week in
Bethany, in which the mercenary
character of Judas was revealed, in
contrast with the simple and beauti-
ful loyalty and self -forgetfulness of
Mary.
It is not ;certainly known who Simon
the leper was. • A similar story is told
In Luke 17: 36-50 of a dinner in the
house a a Pharisee named Simon, but
the woman there mentioned; is calleti
"a sinner," ;and can serely not be
identified with the gentle and loving
eister of Martha and Lazarus. No
doubt thia ;Sheen had been healed of
his diseeee, otherwise there would not
have been held such a feast in his
helmet and it is an interesting eon-
jecture that Jesus Ilimeelf may have
been the healer. With them sat Laz-
arus, only a little while before brought
back frora the dead. It is no wonder
that the heart of title loving woman
Was stirred to its depths. Her gift
was prompted by gratitede and
thaeltfulness for the healing of a
friend'and the restoration of a broth-
er, tharof the woman of Luke's story"

Plan Now .(or. the Garden.
• Every farm family in Canada is
entitled to a well -kept, productive
vegetable garden that will keep them
in fresh vegetables all summer with
enough surplus to stock the pantry
shelves for the entire winter. Furth-
ermore, every farne•family is entitled
to enough shrubbery and flowers to
furnish bouquets for every day of
the growing- ,season. If you do not
have such a vegetable garden and
such provision for flowers on your
farm. your family is being cheated
of the good things that should go with
farm life. Land and labor devoted
to such a purpose return the richest
sort of dividends both in pleasure and
in actual profit. This has lbeen proved
times without number.
According to our observation and
experience, the time to start the
flower and vegetable gerclen is in
Jatmary or February. Start with a
few postal cerds directed to the res-
ponsible seed hoasee asking them for
their catalogues. Another card will
bring you all the late government
bulletins on garden culture. Fortified
with this material, proeeed to sell the
garden idea to the family. This once
accomplished, make the actual, plans
for space to be used, varieties to be
planted and eare to be given. The
more time and, money you spend on
the question before' actual planting
thne, the more certahe the success of
the garden. -
Make this a garden year on the
farm. Make it such a garden that
you will want the neighbors all to
come overand. look at it. Make ibs
care a job for the entire family. And
be sure to have enough flowers to
,supply both yourself and the neigh-
bors. If you follow our advice on
this question of gardens you will
never regret it,
• Feed. for ram: During the winter
months the grain for a ram should
not exceed one pound daily. In the
spring of the year, feed no grain if
the pasture is good' and the ram is in
good physical condition.
Beets` and cabbage are greatly rel-
ished by the fowls during the winter
months, but care must be exercised
to avoid feeding too mutch green feed.
Mangel whiizels yield larger crops

Zow inanzr steps will it take to make
back and forth and then
to do in the kitchen, besides simple
cooking, the :smaller the kitchen can
be mede and the easier the work will
be.. A kitchen 10x12 or 9x11, feet is
a moderate-sized, kitchen, easy to ar-
range, ;and while small enough to
require few steps is large enough for
comfort.
In this /emu where we spend se
much time and work so hard there
should be plenty of light ancl as few
doors as possible. Doors cut up the
tvalt space, making it difficult to ar-
range equipment.
If posible the kitchen shouldnot be
used as a passage way from the front
door to the back door. This also

The housewife should, just as fax
as she can, plan her kitchen, keeping
constantly in mind the various tasks
;she performs there'and centreing her
plans around the taske of most im-
portance and those which are carried
on with most frequency, such as meal
preparation, serving 'the meals and
dishwashing. The kitchen should be
made convenient for doing these
things since they recur most often in
the calendar off: houselold duties.

Here is a little problem in simple
arithmetic' for the young folk of the
family: IfMother saves 56 feet, in
making one pie a week, how much
traveltwould she save if she made one
pie a week for a year, in this re-
routed kitahen? The answer ;comes

aceurate, somethin over .55 of a
mile! You can cerry this oat as far
as you wish: steps saved in cooking
three meals a day for seven times
fifty-two weeks in a year --mounts up,
does -it not?
And the figures are no joke. Life
is immeasurabiy precious and sacred.
It is measured out to us in eleasuree
of time and strength. We can actu-
ally, by making changes in our ways
of working, save these priceless hours
and this priceless thing called nervous
energy.
Nlet as study the diagrams once
more:
Notice
the changes in this kitchen.
A. window has been substituted for
• the outside door which was not need-
ed but which creat -ed a line of travel
across the kitchen. This change pro-
vides more wall room, and light and
a clear, unbroken working space.
A portable cabinet has been added
and everything necessary in making
the pie, with the exception of raw;
materials, is kept in the cabinet so'
that no walking is necessary to gath-
er materials and utensils. When the
pie is baked., it is cooled and served
from the shelf, which is convenient:
to both the serving dishes and the
dining room.
The drain boards provide ample
space for the clearing away process.
Shelves at the right of the sink and
very near the dining room provide
space for china which. forieerly was
kept in the pantry.
Shelves underneath the drain boarde
provide space for pots and pans which
are used in cooking.
These additions greatly simplify
the clearing away process, and as a
result, dishes are handled only once.
A hot water boiler has been in-
stalled which saves the carrying of
many 'pails of water to be heated.
The fuel bog has been equipped
with casters, which is a great con-
venience. A wall wash basin has been
put in the kitchen which makes a very
satisfactory arrangement where it is
impossible to provide a separate wash

GROCERS TAKING LESS
PROFIT ON MANY LINES
Red Rose Tea People Make
Further Statement.
some of our friends among the
grocers, in speaking of our letter to
the pre.3is an grocers' profits have in-
dicated, that apparently it has been
construed by some readers to mean
that Red Rage Tea was the only ar-
ticle on which the grocer takes a
smaller profit, In orderto give his cus-
tomers a higher quality.
It was not our intention to convey
such an impression, ais we know that
most grocers soli well known brands
of other goods at less profit than they
could make on same brands emu -ale
well known, and for the same reason
that they recommend Teed Rose Teao
imply to give thole customers the
hent possible value.
In our letter we mentioned Red
Rose Tea beeatee it naturally mine
filet to our nand and because we knew
that grocers were selling it at a less
profit than they make on other teas. --
