This producer has little or no control over the selling price of his goods, but can sometimes do much toward reducing the cost ofpro- duction by growing good live stock end feeding his various classes of live stock a larger proportion of suitable home-grown feeds.

They are producing a maximum of milk because. they have an abundance of feed which is em ily digested, This is succulence or succulent feed, The cows can evident ly eat and digest a large amount of it without taxing their digestive sys- tem ; hence the big flow of milk at a relatively cheap cost. The question then is, how can a supply of suitable feed, or Be equivalent be grown, star ed and fed to all classes of stock throughout the year 2 Cost studies have been kept at the Ste. Anne Experimental Farm on this question since 1923. The average result.: for four years are given in the following table. : The following poem, written b'y the late George A, Warburton, was read at the funeral service in the Metropolitan church, Toronto, 1)Y J, W.

The remainder can be clas- sified as cured hay crops and include clover, alfalfa, timothy and oat and pea, hay or vetch hay. The latter crop has several uses in that it can either be fed green as a soiling crop, cured as hay for winter feeding pY cutting when the oats are in the early dough stage or it may be allowed to ripen for grain if the other flay crops have been good. In studying the data of the above table, it will be noted that the cost per ton, as well the cost per hundred pounds of dry matter varies rather widely with the different crops. It is irbo a fact that the dry matter of some of these crops i. P. containng the most pro- tein has more value per pound.

The above experiment has con- firmed the policy being advocated at the present time of growing succulent crops in larger amounts. Thus an acerage of roots, either mangels or swede turnips should -De supplement- ed with additional succulence in the form of silage, and lastly a goodly supply of the forrage crops of fairly high protein content, namely, peas, oats and vetch mixture and the legum inous erops, clover, alfalfa mixture should be grown each year. A part of the latter group can be fed as silage and the balance cured as hay. The farmer who has his barn well filled with early clover hay, plus a good supply of roots, does not worry about the length of winter. His stock grow well and the milk is plentiful and is produced at a profit. CANADA GEESE INCREASE WHEN PROTECTED. Very rapid increase has taken place in the number of geese in the Vaseaux Lake bird sanctuary, Brit- ish Columbia, since this area was set aside for this purpose in 1923. In one part, of the reserve, an island in the lakewhere only three geese nest- ed in 1919, thirtyfive nests were counted in 1028. Throughout the whole sanctuary the number of nests counted in the latter year was 55 whereas in 1923 the number of in- cubating birds was very small in- deed. During last summer over four hundred geese were counted at one time. Great Britain has about 300,000 more unemployed that a year ago.

VA CLEANING GRAIN The cleaning of seed grain should be one of the most important oper- ations on the farm, and the farmer who retains clean grain year after year must follow the practise of thoroughly cleaning all grain be- fore seeding. The machinery for cleaning and the way of doing this work must be governed by the weed seeds and other impurities to be removed. chaff, and weed seeds which 'differ markedly in size and shape from the grain being cleaned can be read- ily cleaned out by most fanning mills properly operated . The wend seeds which are of the same size ns the grain being cleaned are the main difficulty and where such sep- arations are to be made special ma- chines are necessary and in special cases, as separating wild oats from oata, the only thorough method of cleaning is by hand picking. 1 The cleaeing out of inert matter and weed seeds of widely different size from the grain need not be dis- cussed extensively in this article ns Dealer nearly any make of general pur- 1`r • New Lower Prices Make PLYTH Valucs U.+4 k , � Fl Greater t , an Ever (e5 AND UPWARDS COUPE Roadster (wah ramble use) 2 -Door Sedan , Touring De Luxe Coupe (rich rumble coat) 4 -Door Sedan 8820• 850 860 870 870 890 All price§ f.o.b. !Windsor, Ontario, iedladmg Standard factory equipment (freight and taxes extra) pose cleaner properly operated will do good work in such eases. Care must be taken to operate at the right :peed and to feed w titin its capacity as when the sieves are over loaded no machine can do good work. The cleaning of grain where the impurities are similar in .hape pre- sents greater difficulty and in many cases special cleaners are required to do a good work in such cases special cleaners are required to do a good job.In any district where a central. cleaning plant is availalble the farmer is advised to have his grain cleaned at such a plant unless he raises sufficient seed to warrant installing a plant of his own. A plant can be fixed up by a farmer by combining a fanning mill and an indent or disk macnine in line. The fanning mill will mow off` or separate and inert matter and wide- ly different sized seeds and the spe- cial machine for the purpose will make the finer separ- ations. Some farmers use a com- bination of three machines, the last two being suited for special pur- poses. To determine whether the ma- chine is doing work you wish, spread out a quantity of the cleaned seed on a table where weed seeds can be more readily seen. A sample may also be sent to a seed labatory where an analysis of the impurities will be made. All seed should be cleaned be- fore seeding and cleaning should be done early enough in the spring so that the work does not have to be hurried. 1. Illustrated Lectures Proving Popular A number of sets of excellent lantern slides have been prepared by the Dominion Experimental Farms on matter a pertaining to Poultry Husbandry, Planting and Care of the Home Grounds, Origination of new Varieties of Grains, and Select- ion of Live Stock for 13reeding, pur- poses. These slides are proving very helpful and popular where shown at agricultural and horticultural meet- ings. Attendance of from 400 to as high as 750 having been recorded at 'a number of places.

In quality, Plymouth now ad- vances to even higher levels, while it retains the sound Chrysler principles which have given it international repute for economy of oper- ation and upkeep. In the lowest priced field, Plymouth is the outstanding full-size car with ample room for all adult passengers; it is the only car near its price equipped with Chrysler weatherproof hydraulic, four- wheel brakes; it is the one big buy at its price, combining Chrysler's advanced engineering and typical Chrysler performance with modern style, size and luxury.

REQUISITES of a GOOD DRIVER Intelligence ranki far above strength in the medical analysis of what counts in the success and safety in piloting an automobile. A driver with sight and hearing above the average, the muscles acting quickly and smoothly together, but with a slow brain, is regarded as a poor driver, Ile is declared to be more dangerous on the road than a one-armed marl who has a brain quick in response to the impulses coming in from eyes and ears. For the eyes and ears and muscles are the mere mechanical parts of the combination. ATTENTION TO TIRE CUTS. Small cuts in tires should not go on without some sort of repairing. These defects should be washed out with gasoline and filled with plastic rubber, If cuts are very deep they should be fixed at a tire service station, where a patch can be secure- ly cemented inside the casing at the crime time that the cut on the out- side is being repaired. • IMPORTANCE OF FRESH OIL Draining the old oil out of the crank case p+; iodically and replen- ishing it with fresh lubricant about every 1,500 miles will renew life to the engine, increase power, keep the cylinders free from carbon and re- duce knocking and overheating. Us- ing the same oil over and 'over again eventually will become so dirty and thin as to be useless as a lubricant tmcl must be thrown away. DIRT OBSTRUCTS OiL RETURNERS One cause of insufficient lubrica- tion in the bearings is found in ob- structions in the grooves in the hear- ing holder: iSediment o0ten collects in these grooves so that they cannot perform their appointed function of carrying lubricating oil to the bear- ing surfaces. An excess of graphite, if that be used with the oil, some- times produces the condition. TIRE TROUBLE Carefully maintained pressures do more than ensure greater life to tires. Tires that go mysteriously fiat when the outside looks good are us - deposits, the large scale on which op• agricultural and horticultural organ- ually those that have been under erations are concluded, and the great Nations, schools, churches, women's inflated.
