Fall sawing is suc- cessful in many • parts et Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, and may be suitable for the southern coun- ties ef Ontaria, but for most of the provinces, spring sowing with a light see.ding of grain is best. R. IT.: I have about a half acre of sunflowers in, and they look promis- ing. Would like your advice on how -to get the seed off without wasting them. Ans.: 'About all can advise is to ent the heads as soon as they are --well filled and turn down, but before they s.catter Seedoehandling them like ear cern. Store them, in shallow piles on the barn floor and when dry, put them through the threshing maahine. In preparing the machine, regulate it to run much slower than far grain. A bean thresher should shell sunflowers well. D. A.: Could you tell me if boiled rye will Injure four -month-old- pigs, and how? I have rye of my own but no corn, but have been told that the rye will cripple the pigs. Ans.: The danger in feeding rye • alone, either ground or bailed, is that cut when read Y for isilage andput in the silo ears and all; afterwards fed to cattle. His report. was that 1 acre of corn cut when. green and. put in silo was w,arth over 11/i. acres earn, ripened ca.rs removed, remainder put in silo and later fed with ground eara. Dan.: What is the value of sugar beet tops as feed forcheef cattle? Can they. he safely fed in large quantities, say seventy-five or eighty pounds per head daily? I am thinking of winter- ing a load of yearling. steers on beet tops and light mixed timothy hay. Do you think this would make a satis- factory ration?. Also, should beet tops be fed directly from the field, or may they be put into the silo?. Ans.: Henry and „Mearisen inetheir book, Feeds and Feeding, say that an acre of beets yields about 5 thns of leaves and beet waste. These have about half the feeding value of beets. They can be fed green or put in the silo. Fed green. they tend to purge the cattle, hence they should be fed with stliaw er hay. If the tops are decayed there is danger of poison. There is an acid--oxalie acid—in beet tops which in large quantities is pois- onous. German farmers put ,7 lbs. of common salt to ea,ch•ton of beet tops to counteract this acid. Wiscorsie Exp. Station found that by mixing beet tops cut with an ensilage cutter, with equal parts of cone a good. en- silage was formed. e For Home and Country The Vim of New Ontario Home -Makers.

When they rea,ched the farm they found Uncle Henry and Aunt Ellen waiting on the porch to greet them. Dulcie went upstaies with mother, but Toni stayed, to 'hear father and Uncle Henry talk. "Dulcie," said Aunt 'Elden, "don't you want to take eff your traveling clothes and put on ,sionie country things?. • I have aelitble rough-and- tumble costume all ready fog you."

The great mounds of golden hay rose almost to the ceiling of the dim, sitill barn. "I must go and get Tom," Dulcie thought .as sh,e reached the top of the lowest mound. "But first PR have a few bounces." Suddenly, as she bounced gayly up and down, a dark object came rolling from the mound just above.

Than she saw that it was a tousled boy with overalls on and a raggeel hat pulled over his face. an "Good morning," she said rather "Hello," said the boy is a shy, gruff voice. They were silent for a while. Dulcie was thinking, "I wonder if Torn knows there will be another boy to play maesvt.*.e• say Jack Robinson.,Ho! Isn't this funny?" .

Storing Potatoes. - Potatoes, says the Dominion Horti- culturist, should be staeed in a cool well -ventilated .cella.r that is perfectly dark. Instead of piling the potatoes aga.inst the wall, or on the floor, slate should be nailed a little apart, say about six- inches from the wall, and a temPorary floor Should be put clown about tile same space above the per- Maneet floor with cracks between the boierds. If the pilesha.ve to be made very large, squa-re ventilators of wood made of tallats and running from the tap to the bottom 'can be put in here .and there through the piles. These with the ventilation afforded at the sales amr Vattern, will keep the pota- toes in. rm.& better eandition than if they are in a solid heap. Another good d III.
