As space is limited it Is advisable where Immediate reply is necessary that a stamped and ad- dressed envelope be onclesed with the puestlon,when the answer will be mailed direct. W, S.: We have a 40 -acre field • which will not raise clover, . Do you think it needs lime? Answer: Five reasons occur to us why clover may net grow on your field: 3, The drelna0•e of your soil may be bad and the water standing in the soil ,nay smother out the sprouting seeds, 2. Your soil may be sour. Get a sheet of blue litmus paper from a druggist and bury entail pieces of the paper in several places in the field at a depth of from 4 to 6 inches, while the soil is damp. When you dig the paper up in about one-half hour, if it has turned pink it indicates that the soil is sour and there is need of lithe. If such is 'the . ease, apply ground limestone at the rate of i ton per acre,. 3. The bacterin that naturally grow on the roots of the clover may be is rather large, i would advise you lathing. If such is the case, write rather to place a lump of rock salt the Bacteriological Deportment of so that your cow may lick it as she the O,A.C„ Guelph, fora bottle of desires: culture with which to treat the seed.

Your soil may lack fertility suf- form a suitable place -foe the mould- plant to grow, The red mould inside the lumps you described is simply another form .of mould, Evidently your ensilage has been cut after a frost when the lessees were dry and the ensilage did not pack thoroughly. It is true there should have been more juice among the silage when the silo was 01101 end the cut corn should have been tramped down much more solidly. The juice of the immature corn is very largely in the sugar stage, Very little has been changed to starch, which is found in much greater quantity in ripened corn, The ripetied corn makes very much better feed 'since it contains much more grain. You can hasten the ripening of corn from 10 days to two weeks by the addition of 200 to 400 lbs. per acre of fertilizer high in phosphoric acid, The amount of salt you mentioned needed? This latter way would take hunch of my' tine, which is valuable at that season.

When Jesus was in I3etlnuny. Just before tolling the story of Judas' treachery, 'Matthew =turns aside to tell ha an incident of the previous week in m Bethany, in which the mercenary character of•Judas. was revealed, in contrast with the simple and (,cactis ful loyalty and self-forgetfulneas of Mary, It is not 'certainly known who Sinal) the pts was. A sin,flnr••story is told in Luke 7: 36-50 ofi a dinner in the house of n Pharisee named Stenon, but the woman there rnentiened is called "a sinner," and cru? surely ,lot be identified with the gentle and loving sister of Martha end Lazarus.

With them sat Laz- e,rus, onlya little while before brought basc from the dead. 1t la no wonder that the heart of this loving women rise stirred to its depths. Her gift was prompted by gratitude and thankfulness for the healing of a friend and the restoration of a broth- er, that of the wernan of Luke's story by thankfulness for a life cleansed 'from sht, 'ha alabaster box was probably a bottle or vase with a narrow neck, made out, of the et,ft alabaster stone found in that country, It was closely sealed, and opened by breaking the neck, Imniedieteiy the perfume would fill the whole room, The fragrant oil, which is called, in. Mark 14: 3, "spikenard," was obtained from an Indian plant, sometimes called he - mum of its appearance, Indian spike, and was rare and costly, Given to the Poor. The objection was taken on low ground, The gift of love is not measured, and where such love -as that of Mary abounds the poor will never want. The poor widow gave out of her poverty to the treas- ury of the temple which 'she loved and was richer .for the giving. The world is imnseasucably richer for' the costly gifts which have been made to Christ's •church all down through the ages, "For the heart grows rieh by giving," and it is wealth of heart and soul =that nta'kee always and every- where for human good. For My burial. Jeaus makes the act of Mary a eymljol and prophecy of Isis approaching death. Of course ?'fary did not mean it that way, and she must have hoped, when she heard Him say these words, that the day of His burial, when it was the custom to anoint the body with perfumes, was far distant, Jesus eeclares also what has become_ abundantly fulfilled, that her simple act of faith and love will be told wheresoever this gospel shall be preached to the whole world. Application. A "beautiful" work was what Jesus called Mary's deed and on two counts. "Me ye have not always." It is not easy to live as Jesus did surrounded by suspicion and animosity, to be aware .that even in the circle of the most intimate friends there was one wilting to sell you to your enemies, and to have oft -repeated evidences of the dullness and lack of understand- ing on .the part of those who were faithful, His heart must have longed for sympathy. How Ile loved His friends and how the thought of leav- ing them must have wrung His heart. And here was an outburst of affection from one who evidently loved Him far above all earthly treasure. It was a source of strength and solace. Then, too, He read into her action an un- suspected significance, "for my bur- ial." Mary had no thought of this. It seemed a far cry from the festivi- ties of Simon's house to the tomb hewn out of a rock, yet Jesus was right. And He often surprises those who give to Him with tite far-reach- ing issues of their gifts. Even the least service rendered the "least of these" is "auto Me." What revela- tions await generous souls in heaven when the story of what they have really made possible is made plain. i y Placa Now for the Garden. Every farm family in Canada entitled to a well -kept, .productiv vegetable garden that will keep then in fresh vegetables all summer with enough surplus to stock the panty shelves for the entire winter. Furth ermore, every farm fancily is entitled to enough shrubbery and flowers to furnish bouquets for every day of the growing season. If you do not have such a vegetable garden and ,such provision for flowers on your farm, your fancily is being cheated of the good things that should go with farm life, .Land and labor devoted to such a purpose return the .richest sort of dividends both in pleasure and n actual profit, This has been proved imes without number. According to our observation and xperience, the time to start the flower and vegetable garden is in aauar orFebruary, y Start with a ew postal cards directed to the res- onsible seed houses asking. them for heir catalogues. Another card will ring you all the late government bulletins on garden culture. Fortified with this material, proceed to sell the garden idea to the family. This once accomplished, ncake the actual plans for space' to be used, varieties to be planted and care to be given. The more time and money you spend on he question befere actual planting ims, the more certain the success of he garden. Make this a garden year on the arni. Make it such a garden that ou will want the neighbors all to orae over and look at it. Make its are a job for the entire fancily, And e sure to have enough flowers to upply both yourself and the neigh - ors. If you follow our advice on his question of gardens you will ever regret it. Feed for ram: During the tvintet onths the grain for a ram should. of exceed one pound daily. In the pring of the year, feed no grain if e pasture is good and the ram is in ood physical condition. 13eets and cabbage ,are greatly me- lted by the fowls during the winter onths, ,but care must be exercised avoid feeding too much green feed, Angel wnrzeis yield larger crops an table beets and furnish squally qq desirable Feed for the '(leek 'el; Me beets or cabbage.

Since it fa very difficult to obtain help, the greater part of the work must be accomplished by one person and by careful planning and manage- ment much can be done to sltarten the hours of work, reduce numbers of steps, conserve strength and nervous energy. , • The first thing to consider is the Size of the kitchen. The size will be determined by thework to be carried on there. A kitchen used for, food preparation, dining -room, wash -room and separator work, will have to he larger than one used for food prepara- tion alone. • The fewer things we have To chow how the steps are raved,. route the preparation and serving of anal tp] e pie.

A kitchen 10x12 or 9x11 feet is a moderatesized kitchen, easy to ar- range, and while small enough to require few steps is large enough for comfort. In this room where we spend so much time and work so hard there should be plenty of light and as few doors as possible, Doors cut up the wall space, making it difficult to ar- range equipment. If posible the kitchen should not be used as a passage way from the front door to the back door. This also interferes with a convenient arrange- ment and allows much dust and dirt to be carried into the the kitchen. The housewife should, just es fat as she ean, plan her kitchen, keeping constantly in mind the various tasks she performs there and centreing her plans around the tasks of most im- portance and those which are carried on with most frequency, such as meal preparation, serving the meals and dishwashing. The kitchen should be made convenient for doing these things since they recur most often in the calendar of household duties. The woman who must use a kitchen which is already made, has a more difficult problem to meet but not. necessarily a hopeless one, She can do much by rearrangement. The best way to consider a re - a pia in this kitchen? Follow the arrows look at the diagram below, carried to the stove, heated and brought to the table, c. The dishes are washed, drained and wiped at the table, • d. Finally the dishes and utensils are placed in the pantry. Now notice these figures very par- titularly: Number of feet traveled in prepar- ing the pie, 96, Number of feet traveled in the clearing away process, 42.
