A large-sized tree requires more attention after it is planted, to tide it over. the critical period fgllow:ng transplanting. Elms and. maples are generally procurable. in larger sizes, and are more likely to succeed than most other varieties. Por wide streets,'avenuee, or boule- vards, trees -of thet,'type of the elm,; which is remarkable for' its vase -like and graceful form, are more suitable than compact , round -headed trees, of the type of the Norway maple. Trees of the typo of the' Silver maple or even the Carglhna poplar should not be selected except for some special purpose. The wood of such trees is soft and brittle, and limbs are easily broken oft in sleet or wind storms. The risk of damage to life and property at such times roust be considered in selecting such tree e. Trees which have a natural beauty which is spoiled when they are pruned of their lower branches, such as the beech, the Weeping Silver maple, or the "Weeping birch, are not suitable for streets or avenues, Tree's which shod their flowering, or fruiting organs, such as the Bal- sam and Carolina poplar,, the Horse chestnut, or the Catalpa, and keep the sidewalks untidy for some weeks each' year, are not desirable street trees. Trees which pre short-lived, or sub- ject to insect attacks; are difficult to transplant, are not. as a rule desir- able for city streets. all day and goes, roaming about st night singing his dismal song, and ho lives in old houses and barns or in the darkest hollows in the wooiid.

Canadian Telegraph Poles The Secretary of the High Com- missioner's office in Landon recently interviewed the British Post Office Department in regard to purchasing telegraph poles in Canada. He was informed that whereas competition with Russia and Norw-y for smaller poles would probably be too keen for Canada to meet, the Department would consider the question of plao.

PRACTICAL COW RECOI DS they Help the Up-to-date Farmer to Build up His Herd Almost every dairy farmer who Commences to weigh and sample his Cows' milk individually says at the end of a few months, "1 find some in ;ny herd were Rept at a loss." Some inert find only one or two cows, others find toa.inany in the herd play a los- ing game. What does this mean? Just this; that, despite all the exnerie• ce gained rron years of practical dairying, the farmer. finds that, in order to become thoroughly "practical" he must re- quisition the aid of dairy records. Neither the cow's appsrrauce nor the ewnel•'s knowledge of some short - !period yield of milk (extraordinary 70,s that yield may have been for a day, or one week, or a month) will testify with certainty to each hull. Vidual cow's ability to pay her way for the whole year. Cow testing pro- vides a simple and eminently pray tical way of discovering, not only ii each cow pays, but which cows pay the most profit on the 12 months' trans- sction of feed consumed, and milk and tat produced. Those large -profit cows aro revealed only by practical cow testing. Cows are apt to cheat the unsus- pecting dairyman unless he keeps tab on the performance of each one; many dairymen have found this out to their atter astonishment and regret. Don't :eke chances with your herd; be cer• rain that each cow pays; it pays you to find out. Individual cow records help the practical farmer to build up a profitable herd. .ation In Stables A new health regulation in Ontario' fixes two loads of manure as the limit that may be allowed to accumu- late in any stable in a city and re- quires a .strongly -built fly -proof box for it, these boxes to be cleaned at least once a week during the summer months.

PATRIOTISMPRODUCTION TheEmpire's CalItoFarmers "Approximately twenty million men have been nbbilized in Europe. A large pro- portion of 'these liave been withdrawn from the fauns of the countries at war. Even in neutral countries large numbers of food producers hard been called from the land to be ready for emergencies. It is difficult for us to realize what will be the effect on food pro- duction through. the withdrawal of several million men from all the great agricultural countries of Europe. These millions cease to'be producers, they have become consumers, —worse still, they have become destroyers of food." HON. MARTIN BURRELL, Minister of Agriculture. Britain must have food—food this year, and food next year. Britain is looking to Canada to supply most- of that food. We are sending our surplus now, but we must prepare for a larger surplus this year and next year. Patriotism and Production must go hand in hand Because' of this need of the Empire for more food, and the call to Canada in that need, the Canadian Depart- ment of Agriculture has arranged for a series of Conferences throughout the Dominion with the object of giving suggestions as to the best ways of - increasing production of the particular products needed at this time. At these con- ferences agricultural specialists, who have studied agricultural conditions and produc- tion throughout the world, and the best means of increasing agricul- tural production in Canada, will give valuable information and suggestions to the farm- ers, live -stock men, dairymen, poultrymen, vegetable • growers,.and other producers cif this country. The Canad- ian Department anad-ianDepartment of Agriculture urges you to attend as many of these Con- ferences as possible, also to watch for other information on the subject that will be given in other announcements in this newspaper. • ATT YO CONFE END UR RENCE Put Energy into Production of Staple Foods The Government does not ask farmers to work harder, so much as it urges them to make their work more productive, and to produce those staple foods that the Empire most needs and that cano be most easily stored tar d and transported.

It was with the Loirtbards that Edward III, and Henry V. literal_ly pledged their crowns and jewels to pbtain funds for the wars' which cul- Ininated in Crecy and Agincourt. They were, moreover, the accredited, iinan- dal agents to the Papacy, ,collecting rnd remitting to Italy the moneys due in respect of English benefices held by foreigners and of other ecclesiasti- cal claims.
