THE WINGHAM TIMES EMPIRE DAY ADDRESS i (Continued from page 2) FELT LIKE A NEW stream with an eleven foot plank," and that may be applied to our prepared- ness. Perhaps we are no more than ready yet too close in with the enemy, and in these days when nothing in war - tare is done in the old way who knows. that it is part of the plan to be in haste to close in? Earl Kitchener said long ago that this was a ever of exhaustion. However, this much is elear; it is our duty to make our best preparation, to have faith in our leaders, and remember that "Victory has its price." Better than empty speculation on our part is it to work and pray, keeping in mind that thousands of brave men who face death every hour expecting that others will come to relieve them, that long lines of caissons wait to be filled with ammunition for the firing line, and that a ruthless hand is grasping to pull down the flag of freedom. There is another side of war that claims attention, and the fact that Nursing Sister Whitworth's name is placed among the •defenders of Empire reminds us of it. I refer to the women's party so splendidly done, Who can tell what it has meant to have her whom we yet lovingly call Queen Alexandra, and Her Majesty Queen Mary, brought so closely into touch with the women of the nation showing that exhalted station is no barrier to deep womanly sympathy and interest. Who can tell what it has meant to have women of leisure and means enter munition factories, and show that before all else they place Empire? Who can tell what sentiments, thoughts and heartstrings have been enterwined with all this knitting in the castle and the cottage? Ah, and who can telt what it has meant to men all battered and shattered to find a welcome awaiting them from a Nursing Sister of their own Dominion; and who is not glad such brave sisters are there when a limp looking boy, with eyes bandaged, is brought in on the back of an orderly? One reads with extreme pleasure that seven -eights of all cared fo't►convalesce. God bless our noble nurses, doctors, and and all who have connected themselves with Red Cross work. Prominently among us today are men wearing the King's uniform, who have been specially invited to be present when their names, and those of men elsewhere in Canada or overseas or in the trenches, making a fine total of 135 names on the roll, are unveiled. We in this public way desire to honor these Delta Defenders of Empire. They belong•..to men of heroic spirit and have, with them, the honor of Canada in their keeping.

Making the Little Farm Pay. By C, C, GOWSFIELD H : 3-i•*J-i~3-i-1-1•i : F-i•1-ivJ•d-I*k'id-i-3»i+ In the dairy regions adjacent to cities farmers are learning how to make cows pay ;100 a year above the value of their feed. Not all farmers are doing this, but a sufficient number have reached the hundred dollar mark to prove that it can be done, It needa a good cow, proper feeding, and sensible market- ing to bring the earnings of the ani- mal up to $100 a year. Farmers to make cows pay must weigh the milk of each ones or twice a week, Those which do Pot produce four gallons or more daily are not worth keeping. It is also well to have milk tested oc- casionally. Here are a few winning principles that may be applied .on either smalI or large dairy farms: Feed silage the year through ex- cept when pasturage is at its best. When pasturage is not good cows need a balanced ration of silage, bay, roots, beet pulp, bran, ground grain, etc. One acre per head is an ample al- lowance for pasture, a nd the field should be divided so that one part can freshen while the other is being grazed. Instead of wasting land in large pastures devote some of it to forage Peg£' 3 The. Gold Dust Twins Phiiosophy 4f RE floors and doors appear to wait until the dost germs con. gregate; the housewife hails each dawning day with grim and harrowing dismay. Says she: "My work will NEVER end; o'er dusty stretches 1 must bend, until, with aching hack and hands I finish what the day demands." Then Mrs, Jones, one afternoon, drop- ped in, at time most opportune. An optimist, she knew the wiles of house- hold work -its sighs and smiles, She told of how she polished floors and wood- work and the endless doors, until when, Hubby saw them, too, reflections said: "Why, howdy -dol" "The Gold Dust Twins," said she, "I find, help leave the woes of dust behind. Each mark of sticky bands on doors, each tread of muddy feet on floors, all fade before the slightest touch of Gold Dust, and the work is such that, when the woodwork has been done, I find said work was enly fun." This line of reasoning must show that those who've tried it OUGHT to. know. ""If you, in one day's duties, find that there's a Grouch in ev'ry Grind, invite the Gold Dust Twins to share such tasks as tire and fret and wear, From kitchen floor to bedroom suite, these tireless little chaps snake neat, and best of all, the sum expense is measured up in meager cents, They put both dust and_dirt to rout and run the last old microbe out, g);:e-er&d.- The "floor-and-Door-a" Girl Via, PROVIDE aunts, Dia QIIAUTEns FOR THE STOOL and root crops. Plan to have such crops as rye and alfalfa available early in the season in case of back- ward pastur. e. Provide clean, dry quarters for stock, feed and water regularly, treat humanely, keep housed in stormy weather, avoid noise and excitement, always handle milk in a sanitary way, keep a simple record of pro- duction, cull out cows that are nn - profitable, use full blooded sires and raise the best female calves. Aim to have private customers 4or milk, cream, and butter. Make clean- liness and regularity the cast iron rules. Assuming that it costs $50 a year to keep a dairy cow, see that the income reaches $150 for each anipai. This would be 50 cents a day for 300 days, or 20 cents a gallon for two and one-half gallons of milk. Farmers who reach out for these results will get them. The figures are low, and with skillful management they can be surpassed. In all the great dairy districts there are ex- amples of direct marketing at com- paratively high figures, the financial returns being greater than are out- lined above. Two dairy owners pro- duce and market milk under condi- tions which enable them to charge 50 per cent. more than ordinary retail rates. One makes this statement: "When the cows are in full milk they get about forty pounds df sil- age a day and sixteen pounds of mix- ed hay, which is mostly alfalfa and clover. I believe good corn silage sad bright alfalfa hay make a perfect ra- tion for dairy cows, and that is what we are aiming at. At milking time I am feeding in addition to this about six pounds of a mixture of fine ground oats and corn and cob meal. I find that it"pays to give the cows a. little grain at milking time, as they come into the milking room without urging and give down their milk much better. With this kind of feed- ing and proper handling of milk the product commands prices that make a dairy worth while." Forest Culture. Forest tulture is as much of an art as is corn culture. A good wood lot, like a good cornfield, is the result of` applying intelligent methods to pro- duce a full, valuable crop. A corn- field with fail spots, empty hills, feeble stab and half filled ears is neither a credit to the farm nor a paying investment for the farmer. No more is a wood lot half stocked with inferior trees. The Department of Agriculture says that when timber is tut is the time of all' times to apply forestry. The way in which the cut- ting is done will determine what the subsequent condition of the wood lot Will be. Ontario Field Chops. There was a.n increase of only 8,000 acres in the area in field crops in Ontario in 1914. On the other stand the acreage in pasture increas- ed by 182,000 acres. There will be a further increase in pasture this year. Keep Young Stock Growing. Winter well the calves and ear- lhtgs. Don't lose gains front last summer's pasture, but keep the *own stock growing and thrifty; succulent feed is essential for thus purpose. 011.Meal. Oil meal is not as rich in protein as cottonseed meal, but it Contains other properties which give it a pref- erence. This is especially true if 'there are no roots to feed.
