Those who are familiar with the his- tory of aople growing in Canada are aware that single handed it has been very difficult, yes almost impossible, to succeed in orcharding beyond a few trees, and that only since co-operation became a small factor in the enterprise has the industry become established on a permanent and prosperous basis. During the last decade of the past century it was no uncommon thing in parts of Ontario to see splendid orchards chopped down for firewood. Growers could get little more for their fruit than the actual expenses incurred in producing it and so the industry had little to justify its continuance. It was under these cir- cumstances that as a last resort the co-operative movement in the industry began. That it has succeeded and with it the commercializing of the ap- ple industry on a large scale there can be no manner of doubt, as already there have been organized throughout Canada no less than 106 co-operative societies and the number is constantly increasing. To outline in more or less detail the principles of co-operation, the more desirable methods to adopt in putting these principles into practice and the objects to be gained in apple growing by their adoption there has been issued from Ottawa a comprehensive bulletin entitled "Co-operation and Fruit grow- ing". It has been prepared by Mr. Aiex. McNeil, Chief of the Fruit Divi- sion who is recognized as one of the foremost authorities of the day on the subject of fruit culture, commerce and co-operation. In this work of 46 pages the subject is treated from practically every stand- point that interests the Canadian Can- adian apple grower. Not only are the essentials and methods of co-operation clearly brought out but the advantages being derived through its agency are clearly shown. The aims of co-operat- ion as applied to the fruit industry are enumerated as follows: - (a) To bring fruit products as direct- ly as possible from the producer to the consumer. (b) To encourage the best methods of production. (e) To encourage thrift in the fruit grower, and economy, intelligence, enterprise and honesty in the packing, grading and marketing of fruit. (d) ro make it possible for a num- ber of small growers to establish a com- mercial standing that will be a guaran- tee for trade marks or contracts. '(e) To act as a credit organization to make advances on products in the pro- cess of being sold. Dealing with the labor problem which confronts every kind of farming it is shown that Nova Scotia growers through their central association in in 1911 were able to take care of a cr..p twice the usual size. Besides the other great advantages of sure markets and good prices secured for fruit the bulletin cities the savings that are effected in buying supplies. There is given a list of the purchases of one society in which the manager claims to have made a saving of $15,000 in one ,year on goods which cost in the aggre- gate $15,000 and included packages spraying equipment and materials, fert- ilizers, drain tiles, etc. 1 he work is issued as bulletin No. 38 of the Dairy and Cold Storage Com- missioner's series and is for general distribntion by the Publications Branch of the Department of Agriculture at Ottawa. .111.116 It is interesting to note that the Young Men's Christian Association is advancing another step in their great work of assisting young men. They are constantly reaching out far beyond the bounds of the:r immediate member - ship, and are now doing a work which encircles the world in its effort to give the helping hand to any young men needing assistance. A new department of the work re- cently organized in the Toronto Central Branch• of the Young Men's Christian Association is one which should be known to every one, It is a co -opera. tive effort between the Christian churches and the Yoting Men's Chris- tian Association, in which they unitedly undertake to look after all young men coming to Toronto asstrangers, putting them in touch with employment, good rooming and boarding houses, proper companions and with prominent young men of the church, etc. "Key -men" are being appointed in every church of Toronto, men who as- sume the responsibility of looking up young men whose names may be sent to them by the Secretary of the work. "Key -men" are also being appointed in outlaying municipalities whose duty it is to notify the Secretary of the Inter - Community work of any young man leaving his home town and for whom he is to work, etc. Information is also being sent in from many other sources in Canada. United States and the British Isles as to young men coming to Toron- to, and hundreds are already being looked after. Parents and friends of young men going to Toronto will be glad to know of this important move on the part of the Y.M.C.A. and the churches, and will, no doubt, take the opportunity of notifying the Secretary of the Inter - Community work, Mr. E. F. Trimble, at the Central Y.M.C.A., Toronto, of any friends going to Toronto to live. We understand that, without any properly organized effort, the Central Branch of the Toronto Young Men's Christian Association has assisted in different ways more than 5,000 men during the year ending May lst last, fully 1,000 of these being assisted in securing employment. That being the case, the possibilities for good in this new department, with the churches as- sisting in every way, are beyond cal- culation. We are pleased to give this informa- tion to the public through the columns of our paper, knowing that by doing so we are assisting in one of the greatest movements the Young Men's Christian Association has ever undertaken. Troubled With Weak Heart. Was All Run Down. Many 'people ore unaware of having anything wrong with their heart till some excitement, overwork or worry causes ' them suddenly to feel faint or duly, and have an all -gone sinking sensation. • On the first sign of any weakness of the heart or nerves, you should not wait until your case becomes so desperate that it is going to take years to cure you, but-ej,rail yourself of a prom_ pt aa4rest cur y using Milburn's Heart and erre PIU..

Somehow, whenever the growing sea- son comes, with its thin veil of newly - unrolled leaflets and the smell of the warming earth, it is very hard to keep one's eyes turned indoors and to follow steadily the beaten path of routine. The sun -bonnet or garden -hat becomes very lovely in our eyes; there is, the Common- er says, a perfect fascination in the garden tools, and the stout useful gloves seem to fit a great deal better than the hand -coverings for other occasions. Even the much deplored house-clean- ing upheaval, overwhich the department writers make such a moan, is chock-full of allurements, and like the hen in the garden, the housewife just aches to "scratch." It is like going down to the battle, and there are few women who down in there hearts do not enjoy the fray, and go into it, heart and soul, no matter how tired they may get before things are again adjusted to their likings. With the helps for housecleaning now on the market, the woman of even'small means will find the work greatly simp- lified to what it was in the olden times when everything was done with the hand brush and broom, the carpet beat- er and the scrub bucket. Right close up to the other work comes the beginning of the canning sea- son, and from that op, there are always some kinds of fruits and vegetables be- ginning to be taken care of. And sand- wiched in between all the work, no mat- ter -how pressing, there is an ever-pres- ent demand for the family sewing ma- chine, especially when there, are grow- ing children. So every season brings its joys and the joy of hearty work is chief among them. As a general statement it can be said that silage does not affect the taste of milk to any degree. It is 'held by some that silage produces on the whole 41 little better flavolaed milk than that I produced )from tlryfeeds. Experts who have been given aft opportunity to judge milk produced by feeding silage and dry feeds were unable to distinguish any difference between the two. - Hoard's Dairyman. of SHOE POLISH The EASY polish Makes Shoes Last Longest' F.F.DALLEYCO..Ltd. $affdo.

It will eventually form a soap jelly which is very good for washing fine fabrics. A piece of leather cut from an old shoe makes an ironing holder that pro- tects the hand from the heat, also saves callous spots from gripping the handle. To prevent artichokes from turning black when thay are cooked, add a little vinegar to the water in which they are boiled. Lemon peel should be pared off lemons very thinly, so that the white pitch, which is bitter, will not be used at all. Always put scrubbing brushes away with the bristles down, to save the water from soaking into the handle and loosening elle bristles. To drive a nail or tack easily, and not split the wood, first stick the point into a cake of yellow laundry soap.

Spring is passing, and once more summertide is at the door. Soon the winds will round us slide, hot as though they had been fried, and we'll get up in the morn wishing we had ne'er been born, muttering, with grevous frowns, as we don our handmedowns, "Not a minute have we slept!" Men and wom- en, we'll be kept busy till the summer dies, boiling germs and swatting flies. Soon well languish in the shade, drink- ing pale 'pink lemonade, and the more that we consume, deeper will becom our gloom; summer drinks, already yet, but increase the flow of sweat; they reduce the victotn's vim, bringing lat- situde to •him, so he's feeble when he tries boiling germs and swatting flies. Summer Comes when' men repeat time- worn lies about the heat "It WAS worse in N64," says the Gglliver next door; "our tberrpolteter then made 700 in the shade; you ,could fry an egg real nice on a block of river ice." It is well to tell such tales in the scorching sum- mer gales, if we work while telling lies, boiling germs and swatting flies. Sum- mer comes, so let us all take our swat- ters from the wall, and send forth our battle cries, boiling germs and swatting flies. WALT. MASON. Alfalfa hay and corn silage will make the best feed that can be grown on the farm. With this combination fed at rate of 30 to 35 lbs. of silage and 10 to 15 lbs of alfalfa, very little grain will be needed for the average cow. For Large producers it will be necessary to feed some grain -corn, barley, oats and similar grain will make the best grain ration with the silage and hay.

Most Economical Method of Feeding For Pork Production. it the thriller eau eliminate the ex- pense of harvesting and feeding his turn at the fattening period tie has a decitletl advantage over the mil 3 who dues not, other things Dein„ equal, writes R. L. Den of 01110 ID the Na- tional Stockman. 11'e find that to bring eon' to maturity ordinarily equals about halt' the cost of produc- tion. The cutting. husking and crib- bing equal the other half; hence a field of corn as it stands at maturity is the cheapest hog feed we can raise. About twelve years ago we made a careful test to see if it was profitable to allow the hogs to harvest the corn them- selves. With part of the hogs from that field sold ut $0.60 per hundred- weight and the remainder at $5.60 per hundredweight. the field yielded a re- turn of better than $36 per acre. The hogs had access to a timothy pasture and a strip of woods. We estimated the manure returned to be a compen- sation for the pasture. 1 am acquaint- ed with Igen in this locality who have done better than this. An Illinois farmer in noting his first year's experience in hogging down corn last fall said he never had hogs to do better, even though cholera was in the vicinity. boar cents a bushel was saved in husking and the manure left on the ground. Ele will continue the practice. Another Illinois farmer sowed 'rape In his corn at the Inst cul- tivation and Burns up his experience thus: "1 believe better health condi- tions can he maintained by allowing the hogs to have a good range and let- ting, them choose what they want to eat and when they want it. They are certainly making hogs of themselves." A farmer from Iowa turned seventy- three April and May shotes into four acres of corn on Sept. 1, They had access to twelve ' acres of alfalfa. when they had cleaned up the corn they had gained 5.500 pounds of pork, worth at that time more than $400. These hogs gained at the rate of two and one-half pounds each per dlty. Another Iowa man has hogged down a small field of corn successively for four years and says that the yield of corn on the ground has steadily in- creased. Still another Iowa man be- lieves that "It is a cheap way to husk corn, a convenient way to 'feed cora and an excellent way to fertilize the field with a product that is usually wanted. The practice is,becoming gen- eral here." A friend of mine here has bad a field hogged down successively for eight years. The last crop was more than usually good. His hogs did not contract the cholera Which was in the neighborhood. From the evidence at hand we con- clude that for the corn belt farmer the practice of hogging down corn with supplementary forage of ,alfalfa, rape or clover is conducive to healthfulness. rapid gains and fertility of the land. The preference is given to alfnlfn for balancing the corn. but rape and•clo%, er show good results. These are the cheaper feeds for fattening. Educating the Coit.
