i.AND INTO GRASS.
From one and of the Province to the
ether the cry goes up for hell= en the
kland. The call is voiced in The Sun's
,'special rt_ports on the present situation
on the farm. It is voiced with Nun]
vigor in the spring bulk tin of the Pe
tapertinent of Agriculture, extracts from
which are also given in this issue. De-
e of the scareity of help land all
• (aver Wean) is going taut o, eelovation
land is being laid down in pasture. The
rancl:iiet system is net beim; applied to
• broken land merely; it is being., adopted
in Mariposa to Victoria, in Middlesex,
and in others of the very best town, hips.
It is not in remota` sections that pro-
duction is being curtailed owing to the
'° •shortag; of help i'quired for prodnet-
a son. Itis in townships adjoining Toror-
, to and other centres that the ctinpiaint
of l«tbour scarcity is meet insistent.
Never was there more general dissatis-
faction among Ontario farmers than
there is just now. Nevar was the situ-
ation of the Province, from aa. agricul-
tural standpoint, more critical.
Numerous remedies are being propes-
«1, but non:' seem to ton,'h the point.
Grineirening tlae cine hest, as proposed
by some, will simply aggravate the
evil by spreading o.;r people :till more
thinly upon the land. Ii,. re money for
high way building in Old Ontario will
not solve the difficulty. McGillivray.
with 200 miles of gravelled highway and
with a fine leading road tuning right in-
to London is going into grass. A Fed-
eral grant of a million a year for mere
educational work will not bele. It le
not more knowledge of how to do it but
more man power with which to do it
that is needed. The country is covered
with educators while land remains un-
titled. Something more radical and
far-reaching than any or all of these
things is called for. The condition un -
tier which the GROSS RETURNS from
agriculture on the capital invested there-
in are less than the PROFITS on capit-
al invested in manuftac.urieg, must be
changed. -Sun.

FOR FLETCHER'S
CASTOR 1A
FOR PROTECTION OF MOTORISTS.
(Exchange)
A gentknan with a "grouch" has
drawn up the following brief summary
of the provisions of a bili for the pro-
tection of motorists, The preample
points out the great annoyance mental
anguish. and damage topreperty, which
are oceassioned to motorists by pedes-

suffering either death or serious injury.
It declares that there is already sufficient
strain on the nerves of the owner of a
motor car without its being aggravated
by the constant necessity of keeping a
lookout for incautious foot passengers.
The. bill asks:
1• That persons on foot be allowed
to cross a street only at certain points
two hundred yards apart to be marked
by posts.
2 That persons on foot shall be com-
pelled to carry a red flag and wave it
at least a minute before attempting a
crossing.
3. That every person struck by an
automobile, whether on the appointed
crossings or elsewhere, shall be at once
placed under arrest and taken to the
hospital under police surveillance if
seriously hurt, and to the police station
if their injuries shall be of aminor nat-
ure.

The Fellow Who Made a Bad Guess
and Was Embarrassed.
Two men sat in the nubile room of a
local hotel.. Neither of them could
read or write, and each was ignorant
of the other's failing.
A waiter, coming into the room,
banded one of then a telegram.
He opened it at once and pretended
to read, sating as he did so. "Very
good—very good indeed:" loud enough
for the other to hoar, He then hand-
ed him the telegram, asking him if he
would advise him to accept the offer.
No. 2 also pretended to read and said
that it was very good, but he could
not think of advising him in a matter
of that sort.
The first man then got a telegram
form to write his acceptance of the
offer he pretended he had received.
Not being able to write, he pretended
that he had sprained his wrist and
asked No. 2 to write it for him. But
be at once refused on the plea that
they would recognize his handwriting.
The waiter was then called in, and
No. 1 addressed him as follows:
"Will you kindly answer this tele•
grain for me?" handing it to him to
read. "Tell them I'll take a dozen at
a dollar per head."
"But, sir," said the waiter, "there
must be some mistake. That is not
the answer to this surely. Your tele-
gram says, 'Come at once; twins.'"
"Great Segtt!" yelled the man. "I've
given you the wrong onel" And be

GOOD RICH MILK
GOOD
The critical consumer of milk may
give a snap verdict on the glass of "good
rich milk" given him in the restaurant
or at home, and may vaguely wonder
what percentage of fat the milk is sup-
posed to contain. -Certain standards of
richness are fixed byvarious cpuntries,
A ,
and by municipalities, while some pur-
chasing companies and dealers also set
a standard below which the milk must
not fall. The knowledge of the aver-
age test of the herd, interesting as it
is, is not valuable • to the progressive
dairyman as a knowledge of what each
cow's milk tests. •When it is 2.9, 8.4,
4.5, 5.6, per cent of fat depends on var-
ious factors, and can only be ascertain-
ed after systematic sampling and
testing. Such testing sometimes re-
veals curious facts. A pet cow whose
`good rich milk' was reserved for table
use was recently discarded by a farmer
when cow testing proved to his dismay
that her milk was nearly the poorest in
in the herd.
The average test of the herd is a vit-
al matter to every dairyman whose
milk is paid for at the cheese factory by
the test; it is of decided importance to
to both creamery manager and patron
when considering the by-product of skim
milk for feeding, and the loaded wagon
for the cream -hauler. For two lots
each of 165 pounds of .normal milk may
contain either 500 or 900 pounds of fat;
one Iot is scarcely the best for cheese -
making, while the other would be 'good
rich milk'.
