Within the past few years very promising var.- lelies of oats, wheat, and other crape have been produced.. Before the usual variaties of gate can he used for domestic purposes the grain has to be subjected to the pro - (ass of the ;spectal oatmeal nidil which eliminates the hull and preparee the nteal. A new variety of oats not re- quirieg this process has bean pro- duced by the Experimental Farm at Ottawa. The Liberty oat, officially de:Agnated as Ottawa No. 480, thresh- es out of the straw hulless, and when put through the fanning mill and clapped in an ordinary farm grinder, it is ready for domestic use. For the feeding. of -chickens and young pigs there is no better grain than the oat, but the hell of the usual varieties ceuses difficulty that limits the use of this otherwise excellent grain. A limited supply of seed available of this cat was distributed for trial to a nateber of selected men last year, ut its excellence was so keenly appre- ciate& that a great demand =.for samples of the seed arose. To meet this a censiderable area of the crop was grown last year and distributed this s.pring. As far as practicable the Farres Systems will endeavor to meet the -demand for seed samples which is almost certain to arise during the next few years.

Marquie, an earlier creative of the Perms System, although some- what eaxlier than the 0 a Rea Fife) is Still a little tardy in ripening in eome of theee northern areas. Ruby, whielt is squally good in milling qualities and almost as produetive, should add many thousands of acres to the safe wheat produeieg areas of the Dominion, A large quantity of seed. samples of this variety has been distributed from the Central and braneh Farms this year. A new flax, whielt bears the name of Leag Stem, Ottawa No. 53, on aecount of the exceptional length of its fibres, is eapected to fill an important plaee in the agriculture of C,anade. While it does not yield heavily of seed, the value of the straw for fibre makes it al special interest. A few samples of the seed ef this variety were grown throughout the country last year, but , the Department of Agriculture VMS able to provide a considerably larger number of samples this season. A new bean which has been secured by selection. bears the mane of Nor- wegian, Ottawa No. 710. While this, bean is brown and therefore lacks the attractiveness of the white variety, it is so early in ripening aacl so pro- ductive that it at once came into great, favor, more especially in those dis- tricts where the season is short and in which heretofore no variety of field been has been introduced which ripens sufficiently early. Our Butter and Cheese Trade. A deal of valuable and ;interesting information is to be gathered from seine official figures recently issued in Ottawa and Washington regarding the exports and imports ef 'butter and cheese. From these it would appear that in the twenty-one years ending with 1920 the United! States imported 70,678,427 lbs. of butter, of which Can- ada supplied 20,088,292 lbs., end 613,- 093,863 lbs. of cheese, of which Canada; supplied 10,062,419 lbs., Or about one -1 sixtieth. On the other hand Canada imported from the United. States dur- ing those gears 14,696,986 lbs. of but- ter, or more than two-thirds of what was supplied, and 12,956,631 lbs. of eheese, or 2,894,212 lbs. mere than crossed the border from this eountry. Taking the years 1910 to 1918 in- clusive, Canada imported practically 60 per cent. More butter from the United States than was ex -ported from Canada to that country and more than Iwo and a half times more cheese.

Canada's Dairying Interests to be Represented at International Dairy Congress Canada will have an opportunity next year to take a prominent and leading part in probably the greatest nd most •important gathering relat- ing to agriculture, that has ever been held in America, During the summer of 1922 will take place st ChieagO, Ill., the seventh International, Dairy Congress organized wider the aus- piers of the International Dairy Fed- eration with headquarters at Brussels, Belgium. At the 'sixth congress, held at Berne, Switzerland, in 1914, there were eight hundred delegates present represent- ing twenty-nine different countries. Both at that congress arid at the third, which took place at The Hague, Hob. land, Canada was representecl. by Mr. J. A. Ruddick, Dominion. Dairy and Cold Storage Commiesionex.

A Canning Score Card How to Judge and "Mark" Horne -Canned Products 33y MARY L. BULL. Because of the increasing interest t'e manifested in the work of judging home -preserved fruits and vegetables, at local, -county and provincial fairs., and because of the many questions asked as to how the judging is done, what point's considered, Why aertain jars merit first priz,e when others which look as good or better are awarded second or third, I feel that perhaps giving some score cards with explanation as :to what, is meant by each point may he of interest Indi- vidual score cards differ more or less as to the value they place on tertain points, yet they are similar in the main. On this page is a sample Score Card for tanned fruits. Canned fruit is fruit ,preserved by means of sterilization and perfect sealing, with or without the addition of sugar. The ahn in canning is to preserve the fruit, retaining as nearly as possible the eriginal perfecafiavor, form and color. The score given here allows 10 points to General Appearance.
