Will She
Make A Good '
Dairy Cow
It is safe to judge the cow on
the basis of her production as a
two-year-old, at which seifers are
usually bred to freshen. In general
it may he said that the production
of the two-year-old is about 70 per
cent. of the .nature production, and
that it increases about 10 per cerht,
per year up to five years when the
cow reaches, her greatest produc-
tion,. This varies for different
breeds and individuals but may be
used as a general guide. The test
of the milk or Percentage butterfat
is slightly higher la the heifer
stage than at maturity.

Extending Season
Canada's gardening season can be
lengthened considedably by using
started plants and spreading- sow-
ing operations over several weeks.
This is especially desirable with
vegetables. One third of the seed
can be sown/ at the earliest possible
date outside, one-third at the nor -
anal
tune and one-third two to three
weeks later than usual. This prat-
tice is perfectly feasible with those
long season vegetables like corn,
carrots, beets/ and It ensures the
bery freshest vegetables, just reach-
ing maturity, all through late sum-
mer and tall.
Width early vegetables like peas
and leaf lettuce, however, where
first growth in. the cool part of the
season' is essential it is best to sow'
all seed first thing In the spring.
Harvesting season in this case is
spread out by using at least one
early, one medium and one late
variety,
'Po add still further to the season
