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

their keeping.

Making the Little
Farm Pay.

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

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.

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.
