Advance Office, Wingharn. RATIONS ON THE FARM. Principle Upon Which Replotted $took Provender is Based, The farmer reads a great deal abont feeding rations, Mauch of which .la all Greek. Lie is apt to claws it awoog the "fleloutific talk" that dove taut dlreetly appeal to his needed knowledge. This is a mistake. The agricultural colleges go deep into the matter and unearth truths that. will greatly aselst the forte. er to reap a lot of good A little plain talk about what these rations mean may be of great worth to those who keep stock. It is to be admitted that mach Is said In the agricultural Journals on this sub- ject that is not practical, but ,vet the application of a few printery princi- ples to feeding suggests the way that practical feeds are doing things. There are five classes ot materials in feeding stuffs—viz, protein, enrboby- drates, oil or fat, minerals and water, The mission ot protean is to produce lean meats in the body, wake blood, build up new tissues, etc. By carbohy- drates is meant the starchy materinis which give beat, fat and energy. They represent simply that part ot hely, corn, potatoes and bread that goes to keep the body warm, produce energy for work and fat where the animal. en- larges. Cotton seed bas a good deal of fat or oil, while corn has a moderate amount. The latter constituent, like starch, will also furnish heat, energy and fat and. being more concentrated than the starchy materials, will afford more than twice as much heat, fat er energy as wilt an equal amount of starch or sugar. Mineral substances make teeth and bones and to a certain extent contrib- ute to muscle and flesh. Professor Burkett of the Kansas experiment sta- tion says we take the bran from the wheat and give it to our cattle and Pigs, giving only the soft white part of the wheat to our children, which is lacking in mineral materials. This is often the way with a good deal ot our" food. That explains why our children often have poor teeth and weak bones. Plain common water is an important ingredient in foodstuffs, People must have protein for bone, muscle and blood. They must bare @tarchy ma- terials and fat to keep the body warm, to create energy and to make fat. In corn alone there would not be suf- ficient protein to supply the wants of the body. To add timothy hay, for instance, to corn, as is so often done in feeding work horses, there would still be a lack of protein, as there is very little protein in timothy. But if, instead of feeding all corn, a few pounds of bran or cottonseed meat or linseed oil meal would be added, then you world more correctly balance the ration, supplying the protein. ' The above ration is nierety given to explain the point. net it can be lin- proved upon there is no question. The secret in feeding, therefore, is to fur- nish the necessary ingredients in the proper proportion. Wben you feed corn, cottonseed meal, alfalfa and clover hays or the mixed ration you are sup- plying necessary materials for growth, maintenance and fat production. Pumpkins That Talk. Even the farmer, once the type of simplicity and now progressiveness, is learning how to advertise through his knowledge of the weaknesses of na- ture. One of these weaknesses 18 found in. the lordly pumpkin. Bruise a growing pumpkin and the scar will never be cleared away, but will show in the ripe pumpkin in the shape ot delicate little yellow warts. Starting with this principle alone, shrewd farmers' have made their pumpkin farms valuable. After the vegetables get good sized and prove that they will 'be fine ones they go into the patch and with a sharp stick scar them so that when they are ready for market their bappy faces bear in words of warts legends like these: "Eat me at SmIth's." "Smith will make pies of me soon," "Brown's pies are best," "Jones' pies are delicious," "You can eat me inside." The wily farmer hauls these warty fellows to market and, calling Smith, Jones and Brown from their respective restaurants, shows the strange freak of nature. Of course a sate is astute on sight, and the pumpkin lies at the front ot the restaurant for a few days to astonish passersby until it must be anode into pies to save it. Then the farmer discovers another freak ptunp- kin, suitably marked, to replace it: Fancy prices are to be bad tor these pumpkins, and stony patches that would never pay taxes in any other crop produce wealth in pumpkins. New Plants. Tint few farmers have any !Iden of the great work our government is do- ing in the, way ot. introducing new plants and fruits from the old world into the 'United States. During the last fiscal year more than 2,00b seeds and plants were brought in. The de- partment otagriculture bas explorers constantly on the outlook for all kinds of plants and fruits tbat.seetn capable of good Fields in our own country. They are picked up especially in Man= churia, Itorea and China. There are specimens from wild aprlcot trees ten feet In diameter. There are Wild grapes and wonderful persimmons and bush cherries and other curious and valuable apeciwens that moat of us never even dreamed of.

WALTON McMBBON, Druggist, Wianghani. Do You .Ever make "Jelly Roll, " Madam When we were just about so high, ours was an insatiable sweet tooth for " jelly roll " and such like. Sometimes, however, the cake wouldn't roll right, broke on the turns—mother was "unlucky" those days, and the keen critics didn't insist on the biggest piece. Mother, you see, didn't know flour—took whatever the grocer offered—also took her chances. Do YOU ever make " jelly roll," Madam? Is it always a perfect oval, even layers of light, porous, golden crumb, without streaks or holes unsightly? Whydoesn' tit roll over soft- ly and smoothly ; why does it crack and break in spite of the careful fingers behind the dainty napkin? All on account of the In- nate " cussedness" of cheap flour. o a a e • There's an elasticity, Madam, a coher- enceln FIVE ROSES flour respond- ing to•your every effort. The strength and fineness of FIVE ROSES hold your batter together in the long well -greased pan. Bakes evenly, giving smooth tex- ture, soft, golden crumb, spongy, porous and yielding—no holes nor lumps to vex the soul. 110 - CANADA+ And when you turn It out on the damp napkin and spread the under side with jam or jell—it doesn't get soggy soon nor crumbly. And when you roll it gent- ly, while the kidlets watch this most critical proceed- ing, there Is no crack nor ��� break in the perfect smooth- ness of the surface -'tis a perfect roll. * e * * Mighty hard to make " jelly roll" like that, Madam, and it's im- possible with stingy qualify flour. But it's easy if you use FIVE ROSES. Easy to make melting puff paste, flaky pie crust, tooth- some rolls and goodies galore. Be flourwise, Madam, join the mil- lions using FIVE ROSES. If you are accustomed to cheap flour the results will seem like magic. But you must use FIVE ROSES. LANE OF THE WOODS MILLING CO., LTD., MONTREAL (L) r THINGS YOU.,OUGHT TO DO. Never grumble.

So many recipes contain this; "Add a bay -leaf," and yet many a cook has a ,ever seen one, and considers it a fad of the cook -book writer, and leaves it out, This is as silly as it is unneces- sary. The bay leaf is a real advan- tage to any stew or soup. It imparts a country tang which nothing else will do. Not a spice, not a strong flavor, just a hint of the herb. It is cheap, easily obtained at any grocer's the year round, and should be in every pantry. Shrimp In Gelatine. A pretty salad for an occasion where pink is the predominant color, is made of shrimps stiffened In pink gelatine. Before the gelatine is firm, add the shrimps. Serve when, cold on lettuce with mayonnaise. The gela• tine with no •fruit flavor is best. Pepper. Shall we let the children eat pep- per? The consensus of opinion by physicians and authorities on diet knawers no. They say that pepper retards digestion, due to the unwo: ted stimulant acting on the sensitive glands of the stomach.
