On individual farms, the variation in the amount of labour used in the production, of 100 pounds of milk (.herd basin) is from less than two ]lours to more than six hours, The sign iflcaece of this is shown by the analysis of these 'farm remade which discloses. that, on those talus from which whole milk Wag shipped, an Nuclease of from lees than two hours to more than four hours of labour Pee 100 pounds o4 rank increased ante cost ot pro- ducing milk by 70 per cent, In Cdditien• to increasing the milk cost the operator earnings dropped front $780 to $289. Similar re. suults were experienced on the farms from which uullic had been Shipped for manufacture into cheese, cream and condensed milk Products. It ie interesting to nate that an analysis of the business of milk ohippors to the Montreal mar- ket, made by Macdonald 'Goliege, Quebec, produced a result much the same as that shown for OntarlO, The dairy studies noir in progress conducted jointly by The Econo- mics Division, Dominion Depart- ment or Agriculture, Ottawa, and the Ontario Agodenitural College, Guelph, show tbat, for Ontario, less labour is required where produc- tion per cow is above the average and where the size of rho herd 4s greater than normal for the local- ity, With favourable general daily conditions the largo, high 500 - clueing herd provides it sound bacle- ground tor economical milk pro - deletion, It then becomes possible 10 organize the dairy labour in ueh a way as to secure more milts per emit oaf labour and also to increase the foam operator's net returns from the dairy harm hardness as a whole, CUSTOM SAWING- -Will bo dons at Brussels ,opposite the ,Cmeatnery in the Spring.

The discovery ,that diph- theria carriers and mild overlooked cases of scarlet fever and the carriage of infection by morays from the mouth and nose were the chief routes of transmission in these infections •has disc on tinned the value of terminal disinfection, (that is the disinfections used at the ter- mination of the disease,) The geirans which cause disease hi :man fail to thrive outside the body unless they exist under con- ditions, of moisture, food and warmth conductive to their life. The only ones that rennin active outside the body are those like anthrax awl tetanus which possess spores, and Perhaps that of typhoid fever. Germs do not live long in olci mattresses, bedding and cloth- ing, The orthodox disinfection or mattresses and beetling was aban- doned in Brighton, England in 1910.

Lamins are alanost vital in, creating garden piotures. ,Intensive In the average private vegetable garden one has about the most in- tensive foam, of agrioullture it is Possible to develop. The snoallea' the amount of space available the more intensive is or should be that production. For Instance, in the Large farm garden, where an acre or two MAY be teed then long rows are the rule with plenty of mime for oultivation in between. In the city plot, how- ever, especially where there is winter avaikuble, cultivation is not so important, but ground is, There- fore, we plant in close rows ,only a foot apart for little t111nge like lettuce and beau's, 18 inches for corn and tomatoes.

Shrubbery and Flowers In the general plant the taller shrubs., such as the commlon 05ires, honeysuckle, forsythia, syringe, or lilac are placed farthest back.

In this class, too, will come many of the perennial flowers, iris, phlox, peonies, plants at mreditnn height anti, which like all perennials when =tee planted and established., will come up each year and flower with very little further attention, Nursery shock should be planted as soon as the soil is fit to wu*lr and if purchaser) before this time or if inconvenient 'to plan,, 'mars should be temporarily covered wake moist earth od plants should be. stored in a cool dark cellar an roots• kept moist, Should Delay Pruning As Long As Possible Because of the danger of a see- ere winter freeze, it is advisable tars delay the pawning ,of bearing irutssI trees as, long as possible, states L H. Upshall of the Hanticaltaamaa Experimental Station, Vineland, Ontario, in his bulletin on "Pruning the Tree Fruits." A regular annual pruning is pre- formed to a heavy )pruning every three or dour years. A heavy Prim- ing upsets the balance of the tree as is indicatedby an abnarsaa'1 growth 00 suokens, It may threw the tree partly out of the :11•nl&asg condition, In removing suckers, the cute should, be made flush with Me parent limb else a second amp. may arise neat year from $5• same point, Manly fruit growers begirt ties worry to soon about their truss getting too high; 8114 commence quite early to reduce height. This often results in a stromlg grow at the top of the tree, Causing excessive shading of the lower areas, weakening the growth foams • and eventually resulting in dead branches. Tree's• should teat be beaded Iraelc until they ewe too high for profit- able management. It is an ata�v matter to reduce the befght qty cutting to a sturdy* outward gnaw- ing limb, This height reduction process should be .spread over two o rtllree years so that the balance between g1'n'w3h and fruiting ley not 11e upset.
