WOMEN'S INSTITUTES
How Organized and Conducted in
This Province.
Over 900 Branches With 30,000
Members -- Three Annual Con-
ventions -- Some Outstan:liqg
'Varieties of Field Crops --Fresh
Fruit For the Farm.
(National Crop Improvement Service.)
Agriculture,Toronto,)
In Ontario there are 914; branch
Institutes, with a weinhersilip of
approximately 30,000. The province
is divided into three divisions, east-
ern. central and western Ontario.
Eastern Ontario contains three, cen-
tral Ontario eleven, and western
Ontario three subdivisions
The delegates tc• the annual con-
vention in each division name a.
representatine front their respective
subdivision to form a Beard or
Directors for the Provincial Feder-
ation, These directors, from aritong
themselves, elect oilicers on the ere-
outtve, and also name reprezenta-
tines to the Dominion Federation,
The principle and designation of
the standing committees and the
syiytem or holding and financing their
meeting's is provided for in the con-
stitution of the provincial organiz-
ation and the following committees
have noon named; Health, Education
and Better Schools: Immigration,
Ageieuiture, Legislation, Hooke Eco=
Pounce and Publicity.
Annual conventions are held at
Ottawa, London and Toronto; plans
for the sante tieing made in eo-
operation with repreeeutatives of the
provincial committee and local eont-
mittees chosen .At the time of the
conventions.
The Institutes are entirely inde-
pendent of the Department, so far as
their local meetings are concerned,
The provincial organization is also
quite Independent of the depart-
ment. but It is utilized in an ad-
visory eanacity. The superinte edent
of Institutes suggests lines of :,*rile
for the Institutes from time to thee,
and places before thein reporie of
what the Institutes are doing in var-
ious sections of the provine as neat
as other sections of the l) uninions
The Department furnish(s .i.etur:'rs

Some Outstanding Varieties of Field
Cr.,pe.
Rye.—Of the spring varieties of
rye, the O. A. C. No. 61 has not only
given the highest average yield ,>f
grain per acre at the college but has
surpassed the common spaina rye in
the co-operative exptu imente
throughout Ontario in each of the
past nine years, the average being
practically three bushels per acre in
favor of the former.
Field Peas.—)'lace Canadian Beauty
variety of field pe:.s is one of the
best of the large, smooth, white
kinds. The Arthur, originated at tht•
Central Experimental Farm at C1t
tawa, is coming into prominence. It
is a medium late white pea of m..•
dium size. The Golden Vine is a
small white field pea and one of the
most suitable for mixing with oats
in the production of green fodder or
of hay by using one bushel of peas
and two bushels of oats per acre.
The Golden Vine peas and the O,A.C.
No. 72 oats make an admirable
combination.
Field Beans.—The Small White
pea bean is the commercial variety
of Ontario and is one which is grown
extensively. The Pearce's Improved
Tree bean is a medium late large
yielding variety, producing large siz-
ed white beans of excellent quality.
This variety has given excellent re-
sults in some localities.
Buckwheat.—The Silver Hull
buckwheat produces a grain of ex-
cellent quality and is used consider-
ably throughout the province. The
Rough buckwheat is not so well
known but it is an exceedingly 1>euv..j
yielder producing about fifty per
cent. larger yield of grain per acre
than the Silver i -lull. Although the
last named variety is a high yielder,
the grain possesses a thick hull and
is not of an attractive appearance.—
0. A. Zavitz, Professor of Field Hus-
bandry, O. A. College, Guelph.
Dairying In June.
Cows in clover or good June -grass
pasture require very little attention.
This is • the ideal month for dairy
•operations. More milk and better
milk, are produced in the month of
June, than ;at any other time of the
.year, in Ontario. If there are any
hot days, be careful to cool both
milk and cream, by setting in .ice
water, or cold well water. Sour milk
and cream are too frequently sent to
the factory. Don't forget tO wash the
cream separator and strainer daily,
or after, each time of using.

Money to Move the
Crops
(Natlonet Strop Improvement Service.)
"Every year we see in financial
news that the bankers are conserv-
ing money to move the crops.
"'How does the farmer get his
money? He has been carrying all of
the risk and the sum total of this
risk by all the farmers makes the
risk carried by speenh.ters fade into
insignificance," says Mr, R. S. Rider,
president, Canadian Steel & Wire Co.
"The farmer has always resented
a fixed price because he considers
that his wheat may be worth more
than that at any time when he wants
the roll value tor his property,, but
really the Axed price has very little
to do with the selling price bemuse
at no time during the war period diel
wheat sell below the guarantee,
"Farmers have aiwaye said that if
the middleman could be eliminated.
that they could •get more for the
wheat and the public could buy it
for less.
"The Wheat Growers Association
has demonstrated Its ability to mar-
ket its wheat co-operatively and it
has not been difficult to tlnanee overy
wheat transaction when placed (upon
a business basis.
The Cow a Food
(National Crop Improvement Service.)
How can we build a now breed of
men without we start with the
babies? It Is impossible to improve
our race unless we nourish our in-
fants that they may develop both
physically and mentally.
The dairy cow is at the foundation
of every industry. She is a moat
wonderful laboratory. She fills her
stomach hopper with grain, grass and
silage, then she lies down and by
chewing her cud, converts this raw
material into the most perfect food
in the world.
Doctor McCallom, of Johns Hop-
kins Unieeraity, tells us that the
"water soluble A" and the "fat sol-
uble B," two mysterious somethings,
are found in milk as nowhere else.
Without these mysterious vitamines
children will not grow, so milk -fed
babies have the greatest possible ad-
vantage over the wolf -reared children
raised without milk to drink.
How are the slum babies fed?
Black coffee, pickles, imitation jams
and molasses 'on their bread, consti-
tute the daily rations of thousands of
our poor families in the cities.
Without milk children languish,
the vigor of the adult declines and
the vitality of the human race runs
low.
(National Crop Improvement Service.)
'Uncle"Henry Wallace, father of the
American Secretary of Agriculture,
used to say that you cannot expect
to remove fertility year after year
from the soil without renewing it
any more than you could keep on
drawing money out of the bank with-
out making a deposit. He used to
rage up and down the land denounc-
ing the man who mined his soil and
called it farming.
The late Cyril G. Hopkins, of the
University of Illinois, belonged to the
same school and single-handed he
crusaded against soil robli'ery by ad-
vocating building up of a permanent
soil fertility by the use of rock
phosphate.
He demonstrated on three hundred
acres of very poor land in Southern
Illinois, that he could by using ma-
nure, limestone and rock phosphate,
produce 35% bushels . of , wheat, per
acre, /whereas on lits check plots,
where farm rnanlire alone was used,.
