Whitewash The
Barns Interior
Now's The Best Time of
Year—It's A Great Cleaner
and Purifier
Just now while the barns are all
empty of ilve stock is a good time
to whitewash the interior where
the animals are to be wintered.
Whitewash is a great cleanser
and purifier. It is cheap and easy
to appy, IIt lightens up the inside
or the barns and makes them a lot
more healthful and cheerful place
to work. .In the absence of paint
it can be used on the outside of a
building.
Clear All Litter Away
Sweep down the cobwebs clean
out the corners of all rubbish, and
clear the floors and 'the mangers
of all utter. Give everything a very
thorough coating of whitewash.
tree quick lime. A half -barrel Is
best or making the whitewash.
The water should be put in first,
and then t'he lime, and it should• be
mixed with a hoe alnnodt constant-
ly until it le thoroughly dissolved.
Unless this is done the lime will I
burn and not make the best white-
wash because it will not thorough- '
ly dissolve.

Weed Seeds
Must Be
Disposed Of
Immediately After Threshing
is Compleetd—Burn
Or Bury Them
When threshing has been nom -
/doted and the machine moves on,
the farmer's first job should be the
disposal of weed .seeds removed all
during the threshing, says• J, D,
MacLeod, Crops Seeds and Weeds
Branch Ont, Dept. of Agriculture,
Toronto. The practice of shovelling
them outside the barn is too pre..
valent and should be discouraged.
When this is done, millions of 'the
seeds are carried by the wind, wa-
ter animals birds, and by anan
himself and new areas are infest-
ed. Carelessness in the disposal of
weed seeds is one direct cause of
the weed problem. 4t is hnpotratn
that all weed seeds be gathered
up immediately after the mill has
left and burned ar buried deeply.
Spraying Device Is Effective
Outdoor threshing is now com-
mon throughout Ontario. Much
can be said in its favor. However,
if a field which is badly infested
with sow thistle or Canada thistle,
is threshed From the ,stook on a
windy day, enough seeds will be
carried for miles to infest an entire
community. Where such conditions
exist, farmers are urged' to have
some consideration for their neigh-
bors and to select, 1f possible a lo-
cation which will prevent seeds
from blowing over adjacent farms.
Advantages Of
Fall Ploughing
It Facilitates Early Seeding
of Cereal Crops—
Superior
On Heavy Soils
Experiments Conducted by the
Field Husbandry Division, Domin.
ion Experimental Farms, have 00'.'
shown that shallow vlougbing pro-
duces as high yields as deep
ploughing at a considerable saving
in power requirements. Further•
more tillage beyonr that rebuired
for weed control and reasonably
good 'seed bed preparation has no
beneficial effect on yield(,.
Surface Cultivation 1
In many districts of the Prairie
Provinces ploughing for summer•
tallow has been largely dispensed
with in favour of the "ploughlese I i
fallow" by usrface cultivation. I0
Eastern Canada, ploughing sod
land' in the summer with atter-
hanvest cultivation where weeds are t
troublesome, and ploughing In late
fall on less weedy land, have both I
proved superior to spring plough•
ing, especially on heavy soils, One
advantage of simmer or fall
ploughing is that it facilitates the
early seeding of cereal crops that
experiments. have clearly shoat to
be very desiarbie.
Ontario Tries
Winter Barley
In response to inquiries about
the suitability of winter barley for
Ontario. Fr. Robert Keegan of the
Field Husbandry Department, On•
tario Agricultural College, give:
the following brief statement:—
During recent years there ap
pears to be an increasing interest
in winter barley in Ontario, and
some very high yields, of grain
have been reported.
This crop has been in field
tests at the Ontario Agricultural
College .for many years, but has
not been unreservedly recommend-
ed to the dormers of Ontario has no
variety yet tested has been hardy
enough to ensure a crop in sea-
sons following severe winters.
Experimental results at the Col-
lege and the experience of farm-
ers who have grown winter barley
Indicate the following facts about
this crop: -
11 is not as dependable a crap
as spring barley, but, when not
winter killed It produces excep-
tionally high yields.
The quality of the grain is gen-
erally excellent.
It can he grown an well drained
land In parts of the province
where the snow cover Is good and
where winters are not too severe.
It matures very early and thus
gives an excellent opportunity to
control weeds by after harvest cul-
tivsation.
Since summer cultivation is nee,
essary to provide a good seed had
growing this crag] gives good con-
trol of weeds' as partial summer
following can be. practised both
before seeding and after harvest.
