seme measure of control is Possible
or hoped for in every farmer's
UUdertakings. Farm management as
a. science, as a study, or a planire4
system, is a study of the methods
of control. Farm practice is the
correspondiug art. A farmer was in-
vited to attend a meeting to diectres
impreved methods of fartnifig,
"Nothing doing." was his reply; "I
know a lot more new than I eau get
done." A vere,neturei point ot view,
tor the linntatione of time, the scarc-
ity et labor, adverse weather, die

eases and pests, prevent him from
getting ell those results which his
plans and his labor deserve. Yet he
must pima, and to Man Intelligently
he must be possessed of the beat
enowledge available. Ile must plan
to produce the greatest poseible
quantLy, the best quality, at the low-
Pgit poeelble cot, anti then he must
plan to sell ble, produce at prima

iroblente, of Farm Management.
These are the problems of feria
r.auag'en: Quantity, fatality, cost,
end proceeds; and since they are
Inver inter-rela ed, they cannot be
tudied separately, but must be tone
idered ail together. For example.
•urenean forme= and Canadian
,tretiug are often compered to the
litiedteintage of the latter,. It is ex-
erted. and it is doubtless true, that
the European farmer produces more
per acre than the Canadian farmer
does. and that the Europeau avre IS
Increasing in yield, while the Carta -
than acre is diminishing in yield, On
the other band, the Canadian farmer
produces from three to ten times! as
Much per man as does the European
termer. In Europe, because ot the
dense population and the relative
scarcity ot land, production per acre
Is the, measure of efficiency. In Can-
ada, because of the scarcity of men
on the land and the relative ,abund-
ce of land, production per man is
the ineasuro of efficiency. In Canada
e farmer has the optiou of aPplying
More labor to the same acres, and
producing more per acre, or apply -
Ing Ids labor to more acres. The
law ot dbmbnbshlng ileums speedily
induces hint to eboose his oetton by
working more acres. A low produc-
tion per acre Is the inevitable result
of this choice.
Management Influenced by Returns.
The farmer's interest is served by
adopting each a system of farm man-
agement as will alve him the great-
est returns for labor and capital ex -
Deeded, Unfortunately, that snitein
invariably results, in it eountry
weer° there Is unoccupied Ian 1, In
wasting soil fertility and dimlni • line
Yields. The nation, as distinct 3...ont
the individual farmer, is concerned
be conserving its natural resources
and in producing the greatest pos-
sible amount of wealth; that is, in
main:aining the eon fertility unim-
paired and producing the maximum
per acre. Thus the interest of the
individual fanner and the interests
of the nation are opposed, so long as
the farmer can spread Ids available
labor over more acres than he can
work at maximum productiveness.
Those interests will not be reconcil-
ed so long as economic conditions
furnish the farmer with inefficient
and, costly labor, and costly
fertilizers.
No Exente for Slovenly Farming.
All this, however, does not excuse
the careless and inefficient farmer.
Tato fariners live and work side by
side, Both ,have the same number
of acres, and the same amount of
capital invested. To both the same
knowledge of good methods is avail-
able. One of them directs his labor,
arranges- his crope, selects his stock,
keeps • them healthy"' end thrifty,
keeps his land elelin, maintains his
soil fertility, sells his produce to ad-
vantage, and succeeds. • The other is
haphazard. He has no plans, or•
wrong- plans. His, stock are poor in
quality, and ill -fed. His fences are
broken dawn, and his land overrun
with weeds. He is going behind year
by year. We all know men of both
types. The difference is, a difference

Good dare Will Save Meny Foals. ,
The best time to grow foals, and
the time when they will make teen
largest gains is when they are being
carried by their dams. Many farm-
ers do not realize. this, and begin
feeding the- mare a proper ration
only aner the foal is here. "The.
brooa mare, when in foal, shoeld be
fed a high protein ration, a 'ration
which is rich. in muscle and bone
bnilding Material. •This material is
supplied in the form'.9o1, oats`; 'bran,
and oil meal, as a concentrate, and
clover or alfalfa hay as a roughage.
As soon as the young foal arriees,
see that he gets a good drink of his
mother's first milk': This fore -milk or
colostrum has purgative properties,
and Will usually clear the foal's 'in-

HEART DISEASE.
rRECENT YEArte the number ot cases arid deaths from disorders of the
ee :et have markedly increased,. In Ontario the ratio of deaths has
steadily risen during the last decade, and as it cause of death arganie
heart disease now heads the list. A certain amount of the increase May
be set down to better diagnosis and mere aeeurate statistics, but thesee
facte will hardly aceount for the remarkable increase during recent years.
Whet can be done about it? In the first place means must be taken to
establish not an early diagnosis but an
ORGINIC HEART DJSISASE earlier diagnosis. Every man or woman.
who has reached the age of 40 years shoult
be examined by a, physician; and the phystelaia must not, as is sometimes
done, slur over the examination and hastily conclude that the symptoms are
those ot dyspepsia.

HEART DISEASE.
rRECENT YEArte the number ot cases arid deaths from disorders of the
ee :et have markedly increased,. In Ontario the ratio of deaths has
steadily risen during the last decade, and as it cause of death arganie
heart disease now heads the list. A certain amount of the increase May
be set down to better diagnosis and mere aeeurate statistics, but thesee
facte will hardly aceount for the remarkable increase during recent years.
Whet can be done about it? In the first place means must be taken to
establish not an early diagnosis but an
ORGINIC HEART DJSISASE earlier diagnosis. Every man or woman.
who has reached the age of 40 years shoult
be examined by a, physician; and the phystelaia must not, as is sometimes
done, slur over the examination and hastily conclude that the symptoms are
those ot dyspepsia.

What symptoms and signs are the most important in the testing -
diagnosis of heart disease? Among the most •important are wearit
lassitude, and decreased ambition. It these are complained of it shouli
