Fat and' Lean In the busy world of deifying even a few meagre calculations show. great differences, •whether in cows, their o*nere, the land, the bank deposits or the test of fat, etc; fat and lean are mixed, good results and poor, even nn adjoining farms, Bien in two stalls in the one stable. One owner gets pet•. baps 201 pounds of milk from each lean, hungry sore; a neighbor, with better methods prodnees the fat total of .aeveenteen hundred pounds of milk• per acre, keeping 16 good cows on a well tilled eighty acre farm. Cue milk producer, with poor grade cows, never tested, possibly never well fed gets the lean average Qf lese than three thousand•,pounds of milk .per cow; another producer, who is a real dairyman, revels in the knbwledge'of each of hie eixteen cows giving over eight thousand pounds of milk that will test fairly rich in fat. Then svhen it comes to feeding for profit, not simply for existence, we find one man with a hundred pounds of milk costing him only 59 cents for feed, but a neighbor has to admit the impeac'htnent of milk costing him per hundred at least 90 cents, perhaps over a dollar. So one will melee the fat profit .above '• feed. of over thirty dollars per cow, while bis neigbour is down to tbe'lean margin of only three dollars. Why do such amazing dif. ferences occur? Primarily because dairymen have not studied eacl.cow individually. Dairy records alone can shed lights on these problems. Milk and feed record forms, simple, easily kept; may be had free from the dairy division, Ottawa; apply to -day, and make each cow you own earn a good fat profit. -C. F.. W. 'The March To The Battlefields; Or, Canada's men on the Way.' The abr.ve is the title given a pic- ture that will for many years to some be a highly prized treasure.. It le a photographic reproduction showing the 32,000 men of Canada's first contingent breaking camp and on the march to join the Contin- ental forces. It shows miles and miles of the white tents and tbe marching men. It is a most inspire ing sight. The size is 20x40 incbee, all ready for framing. This picture is sure to be a popular souvenir of the war as far as Canada is concern- ed, and will be in great demand.

'Fin the fleet few months the babe should do little but Bleep and eat. It should not be tossed about, kissed and tickled, nor should it be banked about, visiting; its feeding hours should be regular, and between times let it alone. The persecution these little ones suffer at the bands of sill relatives and family friends is really pitiful. Leave tbe babies alone and let them gross'. The death rate in the first three years of child life is greatest. and aft- er that every added year increase its' safety. The moat frequent cause of infant mortality le improper feeding, and im- pure,milk; the stomach of the new born babe is a very small, and a very delicate affair, but it is through the action of this small and delicate organ all growth conies, and the food which Nature has prepared for the babe's stomach is the another's milk. The wise mother .will insist upon nursing her child not only, for the child's sake, but also for her own. The mother -fed child is tbe one that escapee a hundred dangers to which the bottle-fed babe is exposed: follow Nature and it is well for mother and fop child. Nature loves her own, and it is when we stray from her that in- fant mortality begins. The mother must be well fed if she would feed her child make no mistake about this. To -day we have so many -food fade, and eat so many things that have realty no' food value, that .often the mother's milk is deficient in certain essentials, elmente necessary for the child's growth. Think of all the elments required, bone, muscle, energy, nerve (we can't live today without nerve) the heart, lunge, in fact.all the thoracic viscera, all the abdominal viscera, the bkie, the brain -all must be fed and kept growing; and the mother must through the food she takes provide herself and her cbiid. It is not difficult to understand that a most generous' diet is required to meet this demands, Every food stuff should be a part of the mother's daily rations from the time of conception until the child ie weaned. There is no better resting place for a child than in a roomy carriage on the verandah, sheltered from the., winds, or in the south room of the house. well ventIlated.. warm in the winter time. The Ontario Agricultural College reports that the Crop year of 1914 was the driest on record in Ontario! The precipitation from harvest 1913 to harvest 1914 lacked 52 inches of being up to the average. This is a shortage of almost 20 per cent, The College bas often stated that tile drainage was effective in a dry -season as well as in ,a wet one, and last year • it was able to prove this - in a most practical way, ,Since • 1912 the College has been in'- stalling Practical Drainage Demon. stration Plots in parts of the province where little or no drainage has been done. The plan is to drain half of a field, leaving the other half undrained for comparison. Both parte are sewed to the same kind of grain and the crop from each part threshed separately. Nine plots were drained prior to 1914. The average of the nine fields showed.. that at market prices at threshing rime the drained half produced $14 12 more per acre than the undrained half, and that in the driest year on record. In an average season the average increase due to drainage is over $20 per acre, and in a wet season even more. For a Number of years the Agricul- tural College has been making drain. age surveys for farmers free of charge, except for travelling' expenses, This offer ie again renewed. Farmers hay - leg drainage difficulties may secure assistance by writing the Department of Physics, 0. A.
