COW'S OPINION OF THK SILO.
,...•••••••
Laying aside, for a time, our own
ideas a the economy, money value and
convenienee of the silo, a contempor-
ary remark% let us ask the cow for an
opinion on the silo and silage feeding,
What would she say? It requires no
great stretch of the imagination to
bear her answer thus :
"That tall, round building which my
master calls silo, I consider the most
important on the farm,
"There is more solid feed packed in-
side that round buliding without win-
dows than it is possible to place in any
other struetare on the farm.
"With careful feeding, this feed will
last me until grass comes next spring.
"Next to grass, I prefer this silage
to any other feed. I am very fond of
it. It is as succulent as June pasture,
It sharpers my appetite, and enables
me to enjoy a bite of dry hay and fod-
der all the more.
"I am enjoying the best of health,
and am sure it is due to my silage ra-
tion, It makes my hair soft, glossy
and silky.
"Master has added up my last
month's milk yield, and I heard him
say he could not account for the in-
creased amount unless it was from
feeding silage.
"I am glad that I am done picking
the blades of stock fodder thrown on
the, ground in all kinds qf weather. I
can now stand in my stall in the barn
and eat my mess of warm silage out of
a, clean treugh."- New England Farm-
er.
FEEDING YOUNG CHILDREN.
4,•••••••••• T/F
Young children are best fed simple
foods as their digestive organs are not
yet developed to take care of a great
variety of foods. Plenty of mire cow's
milk should form the principal article
of diet, all starchy foods should be
thoroughly cooked. Cereals are best
cooked two or three hours and strained.
Meat, with the exception of a very
little thoroughly cooked, bacon should
nQt be given at all and even the ham
is somewhat superfluous.
The juice of steak or roast beef may
be used on baked potatoes or on well
baked bread. Meat broths or strained
soups maybe fed without injury.
Vegetables should be well cooked,
flavoured with salt and butter only,
and put through a sieve. Never urge
vegetables upon a child who has not yet
developed an appetite or them. The
ability to ,digest certain vegetables is
often late in appearing.
Fruit and vegetables contain mineral
matter needed by the system and an
appetite for these articles of diet
should be encouraged.
However, children differ in their
ability to care for certain foods and by
watching results a parent soon learns
to know what is safe to feed each in.
dividu,a1 child. As parents of large
families know, there can be no hard
and fast rule.
A child two or three years old should
have five regular meals a {lay -regular
meals -that is at the same time each
day and then should not lunch indis-
criminately between meals or while at
play.

THE WINGHAN1 IIIVIES
The Leta James Pollock.
There has been called to his long
home one of the pioneers of the Town.
ship of IVIorris, in the person of James
Pollock, who passed to Higher Life,
Nov. 28th, 1914, at the ripe age of 01
years and 2 months, being the oldest
man in the township.
He was born in County Tyrone, Ire-
land, 1823, and came to Canada in 1847
and settled in Halton County for a few
years where he married Arne Creighton
of Milton, formerly frorn Tyrone Co.,
Ireland, who preceded him 14 years ago,
He came to the Township of Morris,
Huron County, and settled on the farm
where has ever since resided, To use
his own words, "It was nothing but
sop bush," At that time travelling
was done on foot. He travelled three
days to meet his destination. Three
months later, his wife, in company
with Robert McGowan, Sr., and son,
Walter, and wife followed him with
their ox team. They, for years cele-
brated their wedding tour as they called
it, on the 15th of February, 1854. All
the others have answered the Roll Call
some years except Walter who passed
out about two years ago. Accornodation
then was something out of the question.
I might give a little of his oft talked
experience as a pioneer of the forest.
He started out with what provision he
thought would be necessary for the trip,
but it run out on the eve of the second
day and he had nothing until the eve of
the third day when he came to a shanty
then occupied by Sir. McKellar, Sr.
That place now is where Mr. Andrew
Sloan now resides. He went in and
asked if he could get something to eat.
Mrs. McKellar asked him if he could
eat potatoes, he said "Yes, if they are
boiled " He afterwards boarded there
until he built his shanty and wife came.
She said she could see nothing but the
bush around her and the sky above.
They were both blessed with good
health. He had his axe, eleven barrow
pins and a few other necessaries, and
she had quite a few necessaries for
housekeeping. The first grain he grew
he had no granary nor place to putt to
keep it from the bears, so he scooped
out a tree filled it from the top then
covered L. up, when he wanted some he
bored a hole near the bottom and let it
run out. They then did.not have rural
mail delivery and it cost something to
get a letter. The post office was then
at the home of Rev. J. B. Taylor, 9th
con., then known as Orchill Post Office.
It cost 25 cents to mail a letter to the
Old Country. He helped to draw the
first logs to build the first building in
Blyth. The first minister's name was
Rey. Anderson. In those days there
was ho sickness nor deaths. He used
to say, "They would have to kill some-
one to start a burying ground." People
then were the happy children of the
forest. He did not say but people in
those days were happy, took their ox
team and visit for a whole day. He
could relate incidents of the early days
with pleasure. He was exceptionally
bright, mentally, his senses were per-
fect, talked to the last perfectly con-
scious. He was a man who wished
everybody well and was very hospitable
and social.
He leaves one son, William, and three
daughters to mourn his earthly absence,
Margaret, at home; Mrs. S. J. Smith,
Petoskey, Mich.; and Mrs. Mary Wren,
of Haldmand County; and two grand-
sons, A. Ernest Smith, at home; and
Wm. J, Smith, of the Bank of Hamil-
ton staff, Blyth.
His spirit peacefully took its flight to
join the friends who had gone before.
He was perfectly happy to go and never
uttered a murmur in any way. What
is, is best and the will of the Divine
Power he was ready to obey,

CASTO RIA
In addition to the 33,000 men in the
first contingent, 23,000 mobilized for
the second, and 8,000 on guard and out-
post duty in Canada, it is proposed to
raise 33,700 more, bringing Canada's
total forces up to 95,700 men.

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE
In view of the recent serious out.
break of Foot and Mouth Disesse in
the United States, with its subsequent
serious losses and necessity'for string-
ent measures, Canadian stock owners
should acquaint themselves with the
particulars of this disease. A seven
page pamphlet, prepared by Dr. S. G.
Rutherford, formerly Veterinery Direc-
tor General for Canada, outlines the
symptoms and appearances of the dis-
ease with its treatment and preventive
measures. In view of the fact that it
is one of the most infectious diseases
I known, attacking nearly all species of
I farm animals, and that the many dif-
I ferent ways in which its germs can be
conveyed from place to place render it
very difficult to prevent its spread
once it has made its appearante in a
cemmunity. In - this pamphlet
a number of such measures have been
outlined by Dr. Rutherford, a know-
ledge of which should prove of greet
value should the disease make its ap-
pearanee in Canada. Copies of this

ence is as follows:.
Just before he laid by his core in

five pounds of seed per acre. The culti-

later 170 spring pigs were turned into

ranks high in this respect. Ire is
an extremely rugged hog and rivals
In size the large Yorkshire. The
Tamworth is probably the most pro-
lific a all breeds of swine, He is
leaned to be restless, but is usual-
ly gentle In disposition, and the

for their superior bacon qualities.

Intll curly winter, when the corn had
been cleaned up and the rape killed

light feeding, since they had access to
running water. As Mr. Crow puts it,
"I hardly knew 1 bad any bogs

When whiter came, however, he
found that lie had around a numerous
hunch of thrifty, half grown hogs with
nearly ynappensable appetites and a
surprising capacity for further growth.
Ile fed them corn, mill feed and
tankage until Meech, when they were
sold at $7.50 per '100 pounds, bringing
$2,040.75,
Up to the time they were sold, these
hogs had consumed 2,100 bushels of
corn, valued at 40 cents per bushel, or
$864; also will feed and tankage test-
ing $30.50. Thus their total feed bill,
aside from the pasture, was $044.50.
leaving a profit of $1,090.20.
As Mr. CrOW figures it this $1,090.20
represents the 'returns from the ten

allowance bus been made for all other
feeds: heuee he renlized $109.02 per
acre from this field, whereas from the
remainder of his corn land, which bore
a straight crop or forty-flve bushels
per acre, worth 40 cents per bushel,
he actually realized a return per acre
of only $13.
SOME SILO ADVANTAGES.
Modern Farmers Agree as to the Bene-
fits of Silage as a Feed.
The silo has proved itself to be high-
ly profitable in many ways over differ-
eut sections of the country. Its means
for increasing the supply of feed for
the stock has been fully tested, writes
an Illinois farmer in the lova Home -
stout Silage is not only n benefit to
the dairy fernier, hut the general
fnruier as well, for all stock will eat
some well kept silage, and it is much
relished by them.
A. silo should by all means he erect-
ed on all farms where live stock is to
be kept. The silo not only saves all the
crop for feeding purposes, but saves
much labor in feeding.
,One should never think of keeping a
dairy herd throngh the winter without
silage as a part of their ration. When
cows are properly cared for in winter,
more profit may be derived from them
than during the surniner months, as
the prices for cream and butter are
always better, besides the inilk being
easier to handle and keep fresh. When
cows are fed a goodly supply of well
kept silage in connectiou with their
other feed it is almost equal to the pas-
turage in summer, giving the butter a
rich color and good flavor.
Some do net build silos owing to the
• cost. It is true the flied cost seems
great, but the money and iab5r saved
In Utilizing every stalk of corn will pay
for the cost of the silo in a few years.
Farmers sere 'Waking up to the fact
that they need a silo In their basiness
and can't afford to lot the cost hold
them off from so profitable an invest-
ment.
Keep Plies Out of the Barn.
Flies are hard on all animals, but the
colt seenas to suffer moat fronl the
pests. A dark stable Will Make the

side. And if there are one or two light

Will You Help The Hospital
for Sick Children, the Great
Provincial Charity ? -4.-
Dear Mr, Editor: -
Thanks for the privilege of appeal-
ing through your columns on behalf or
the Hospital for Sick Children. The
Hospital takes care of sick and de-
formed children, not only in Toronto,
but in the Province, outside of the city.
This coming year, of allethe years
In the Hospital's history, has a more
serious outlook, as regards funds for
maintenance, than any year that has
passed its calendar.
So many calls are being made on the
purses of the generous people of To -
route and Ontario, to help the soldiers
of the Empire, that as I make ray
daily rounds through the wards of the
Hospital, and see the suffering chil-
dren in our cots and beds, the thought
strikes me as to whether the people
will as of old, with all the demands
made upon them, answer our appeal
and help to maintain the institution
that is fighting in the never-ending
battle with disease arid death, in its
endeavor to save the stricken little
ones in the child-Iife of Ontario,
Last year there were 394 in -patients
from 210 places outside of Toronto,
and in the past twenty years there
have been 7,000 from places in the
Province other than Toronto.
It coats us $2.34 per patient per day
for maintenance. The municipalities
pay for patientae $1 per patient per
day; the Government allows 20 cents
per patient per day; so, deducting
$1.20 from $2.34, it leaves the Hospital
with $1.14 to pay out of subscrIptiong
it receives from the people of Toronto
and the Province. The shortage last
year ran to $18,00a.
Since 1880 about 1,000 cases of club
feet, bow legs and knock kneee have
been treated, and of these 900 had
perfect correction. Nearly all these
were from different parts of the Pro,
vice outside of the city of Toronto.
Remember that every year is a war
year with the Hospital; every day is
a day of battle; every rainute the
Hospital needs money, not for its own
sake, but for the children's sake. The
Hospital is the battle -ground witere the
Armies of Life have grapplecreilth the
nests of Death, and the life or death
of thousands of little children Is the
issue that is settled in that war. Will
you let the Hospital be driven from
