NANO P." ..14111116 Money to Move the Crops (National crop x improvement Service,) "Every year we see in financial news that the bankers are consery ing money to move the crops, " 'How does the farmer get his money?' He has been carrying all of the risk and the sum total of this risk by all the farmers makes the risk carried by speculators fade into insignificance," says Mr. R. S. Rider, president, Canadian Steel & Wire Co. "The farmer has always resented a fixed price because he considers that his wheat may be worth more than that at any time when he wants the full value for his property, but really the fixed price has very little to do with the selling price because at no time during the war period did wheat sell' below the guarantee; "Farmers have always said that if the middleman could be eliminated that they could get more for the, wheat and the public could buy it for less. "The Wheat Growers Association has demonstrated its ability to mar- ket its wheat co-operatively and it has not been difficult to finance every wwheat transaction when placed upon a pusiness basis." The Laboratork (National Crop Improvement Service.) How can we build a new breed of men without we start with • the babies? It is impossible to improve our race unless we nourish our in- fants that they may develop both physically, and mentally. The dairy cow is at the foundation' of every industry: She is a most wonderful laboratory. She fills `her stomach hopper with grain, grass and silage, then she Iles down and by chewing her cud, converts this raw material into the most perfect food in the world. Doctor . McCallom, of Johns Hop- kins University, tells us that the "water soluble A" and the "fat sol- uble B," two mysterious somethings, are found in milk as nowhere else. Without these mysterious vitamines children will not grow, so milk -fed babies have the greatest possible ad- vantage over the wolf -reared children raised withottt milk to drink. How are the slum babies fed? Black coffee, pickles, imitation jams and molasses on their bread, consti- tute the daily rations of thousands of our poor families in the cities. Without 'milk children Ianguish, the vigor of the adult declines and the vitality of the human race runs low.' Breai fro Stone :. asls.ttonnt. Crop Improvement Service.) Uncle Henry Wallace, father of the American Secretary of Agriculture, used to say that you cannot expect to remove fertility year after year from the soil without renewing• it any more than you could keop on drawing money out of the bank tvith- out making a deposit. He used to rage up and down the land denounc- ing the man, who mined bis sell and called it farming. The late Cyril G. Hopkins, of the University of Illinois, belonged to the same school and single-handed he Crusaded against soil robl7ery by ad- vocating building up of a permanent soil fertility by the use of rock phphate. Ile osdemonstrated on throe hundred acres of very poor land in. Southern Illinois, that he could by using ma- nure, limestone and rock phosphate, produce 351/2 bushels of wheat per acre, whereas on his check plots, where farm manure alone was used, ho got but 11 aa, bushels. He taught that our nitrogen supply can be taken from the,;k.,ir and that we generally have enopgh potash,,.but that we• must replenish the phos- phates. The time will come when Canadian land must be renewed and while our tanners, especially in the West, have ;?ever used artiileial fertilizers, it. must be apparent that the economical trete to restore fertility is before the Coil is ethaustyd. I� S FYI iVG OF POTATOES Absolutely .Necessary to Prevent Blight and Rot., Flow to Fight These Fungus Enemies --Directions for Spraying -..Must Be Timely and Be Thoroughly Done. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) Totatoes`.9are :!sprayed, rte ;prevent such fungus diseases as Early Blight and Late Blight and }tot. .Encient: spraying `depends 'upon ^an ''under- standing and appreciation of what fungus diseases are. Fungus diseases are 'caused by plants known as fungi. These plants, unlike ordinary flowering plants, have no green coloring matter (chlorophyll); and are unable there- fore to manufacture their own food. All their nourishment must be ob- tained from decaying animal or vegetable remains or from living animals or plants, Those fungi which derive their nourishment from living plants injure there in so doing in various ways, and thus give rise to what are known., as fungus diseases, Late Blight and Rot is the most destructive disease of potatoes in Ontario. i In wet seasons it frequently destroys a very large proportion of the crop and causes a loss of many thousands of dollars to the farmers of the province. This is to a large extent a needless loss, for L Blight and Rot can be prevented timely, thorough and interne - spraying with Bordeaux nixtu This has been proven by numer field experiments both in this coup and the United States.
