Limiter! • A L. It. Have' a seedbed ready to sow to alfalfa in he spring. Want to cover it with marl. Should I do this before or after seeding? Answer: It is immaterai when you aPPlY the marl to your alfalfa field. This can be done this fall, I presume the field has been plowed but not -worked down.. It would- be very good practice for you to haul the marl and epread it ,fritSt :73 though you- were staTading Buie over she plarCzed field. In the spring, as soon as the soil has worked down It wculd,be very good worked into the top 4 or 5 inches of the soil, During the winter a large round of soluble lime matter in the marl will he unshed into the surface 3 or 4 icd-les and wi-t1 correct the wren e.e. C. L.: is pasturing in the fall harm- ful to rye and vetch as grain crepe? Answer: Pasturing of rye aedvetch in the fall is not injurious if you are careful letOD to pasture it too severly and especially m t to leave the live- stock on the rye and vetch after there has been sufficient rain to make the ground soft. If the soil is clay there is danger of it packing so closely that the air will not circulate and this con- dition would be deadly to rye and vetch If you have been pasturing your rye and vetch and it seems to be fairly well eaten off, you would do well to give it a top dressing of about 200 lbs. per acre of bonemeal, Or of a, fertilizer analyzing about St per cent. ammonia, 10 DO 12 per cent. phoe- phonic acid. II. L. K.: How can I tell whether the water from our well is pure or not? Is there anything we can put in It to kill possible impurities? Answee: It is difficult to tell by simple examination whether or not 'the water is pure and free of disease germs. If you have any doubts as to the supply of W'A`t,er you would do well to send a pint sample Of same to the Ontario Agricultural College, Chem- istry Dept. and Bacteriological Dept. Ask berth 0.9 departments, to make an examination of, it. In many towns and cities It is com- mon practice at certain seasons of the year, such as early spring, to put a certain amount of chloride of lime in the water. This 'through its chemical action assists in the destraction of the bacteria in the water. The quantities of chloride used depends upon the per- centage of dangerous bacteria found in the water. J. S.: Can I use the tractor to ad- vantage in other work than plowing? Some who have had no experience question the advisability of counting on the tractor for other than the work of plowing. Answer: The tractor can be -used to advantage in several ways besides plowing. For instance, if the tractor 1" is not too heavy it may be used for the hauling of such tillage machinery as disks.and harrows, and at the same time the hauling of the seeder. Later the lighter tractors can be used far the hauling of cultivating machinery, while the larger tractors can be used for such work as the running of thrashing machinery, and all machin- ery requiring belt power, such as grinding machinery, machine/7 for sawing wood, road work and the like. t There are a great number of uses ;that can be made of -a tractor besides the primary use of plowing. 'atm "on& The Careless Fairy. Little Fairy Flitabout had 'such a egeze for fleetnese he didn't care a bit about a prosy thing like neatness'. He'd rush around and brush around through briers, brambles, hedges and snip his hems and rip his tucks and frazzle out lois edges. He'd tear his tunic top to toe, then with a joyous ‚whistle fly straight into a thorny latish or perch upon a thistle. He really did not care a rap about the way he /coked, that chap. The fairy tailors lest much time in smoothing out his scratches and sew- ing up his seams again and putting on his patches. So -when be tore a lagged hole right through his gauzy wing one tailor said', "Upon my soul cure him of this thing! I'll take, him down a peg or two, and teach him that it matters to dash about and crash about in rags and tags and tatters!" Gay Flitabout set airily and order- ed, "Mend me, please. I bumped my wing against e, bee. Such nuisances, the beer!" He told, a. tale of hew hehi flown that very summer day against a mor- tal's latticework and barely got a -way. Be hummed a tune, he sinned a smile he cut a joke or two. "Now," said the tailor in a while, "get down, young man; you'll do." "Of course I'll do," laughed Flit - about -and tried to spread his wings. Alas, alack, they would not move! Whatever ailed the things? Then round he Wheeled and round he whirl- ed, but all to no avail; he was as help- less as a dog that tries to catch his tail. With skillful stitches, Erin aura strong, but light as ally feath.e-r, the solemn little tailor man lead sewed his wings together! For weeks and weeks poor Flieabout was cross as twenty witches; lie had to walk or sit about—no one would cut tire stitches! And' when the tailor set hint free he fled, so swift and tahizzy that e'en a honeybee at sight of 'him grew dizzy. But all the same, from that time on, in fairyland <ST out, you eouldset find • eprucer chap than that young Flit - about. I' Bits of Wisdom.

Canada's cattle by all accounts, comparisons, and statistics, may be said to be the healthiest of any coun- try in the world, arid -the Accredited Herd System, by its thoroughness, is well caleulated to keep- them so. Bee fere a herd can be declared free of tuberculosis a year or more must elapse, and the process is necessarily a :slow one. For this reason many ap- plications for the test have to be deferred. Up to October 1 of the current year, 648 such applications had been received, the greater num- ber of which are still in process, while the others will be attended to as soon as they can be reached. The process is being conducted by officers of the Health of Animals Branch of the Do- minion Department of Agriculture, and as men with the•necessery e cper- ienee and qualifications are not ta 'be met with in "great numbers, the staff is limited'. Hence the delay that ap- plicants are sometimes subject to. Up to the date ,'mentioned 37 herds, had been passed and given certificates guaranteeing absolute freedom from tubereulosie It should be stated that only Pure-bred herds are eligible for the test. Of the herds already pass- ed 7 are Shorthorn, four in Ontario and three in Saskatchewan; 12 are Holstein, three each in Ontario and BeiLish Columbia, 1 in Manitoba end 5 in Quebec; Tare Ayrshire, 1 each in Saskatchewan, Ontario and Nova Scotia and 4 in Quebec; 10 are Jersey, 2 in Ontario and 8 in British Colum- bia, and one. is Aberdeen, Angus be- longing to Manitoba. It will thus be seen that British Columbia load 11 herds passed as thoroughly clean, On- tario 10, Quebec 9, Saskatchewan 4, Manitoba 2, and Neva Scotia, 1. In addition to these, there are 558, herds that have been tested once or more in process of accreditation and 54 herds awaiting the first test. If a herd is found to contain an, affected animal', snore than a year must elapse before a certificate is granted, as the year of probation dries not commence until after all trace of tuberculosis' has' been eradicated. Reactors are immediate- ly removed and usually slaughtered under veterinary supervision. As at rule, there ie no difficulty in detecting symptoms of tuberculosis by lesions, but If any suspicion remains guinea pigs are inoculated with suspicious material, and, if present, tubercle bacilli is at, once revealed., A room of his own, attractively kept, is one of the best 'ways of keep- A Cattle Feed purities.

The rest of the"chapter is occupied. -with the plot against Paul's life, which resulted in his 'being sent to Caesarea. Five days after ,Paul's arrival at Caesarea, Ananias, the Jewish high, -privet, came down to Caesarea, accompanied by certain of the elders and Te-rtallus, an eminent Roman lawyer,,whomthey had engag- ed to lay their accusatione against Paul before Felix, vs. 1-9. 1.
