At this time, it will be necessary to move the sows to suit- able t5arrowin•g quarters, which should be heated for winter and early spring litters, says W. W. Cram, Dominion Experimental Sta- tion', Indian Head, Sask. Exercise is essential at all times for the breeding sow and a reason- able amount can be assured by, feeding at a distance of 100 yards or more from the sleeping quarters.

The self-feeding of a mineral mixture consisting of 7. pounds soft coal, 20 pounds salt, 3 pounds air Meeker! lime or ground limestone, and 1 Pound sulphur will supply minerals which may be deficient in ordinary feeds, Sows should be fed twice daily at regular hours, the amount fed being regulated as well se possible, by the age, size, condition and stage of pregnancy of each individual, Alfalfa and sweet clover 'hay, fad regularly are good winter suosti- tutes for suahmer pasture, as they provide bulky, laxative food, rich in essential proteins, minerals and yitam'nis, Turnips, mangels and other vegetables are relished by sows as thep provide suecluence and variety.

APPLE JUICE NOW • POPULAR BEVERAGE Apple juice has made tremendous gains in popularity as a Canadian beverage. This is due in part to ad- ve:tiring, and also to the improved quality of the juice being offered for sale. This quality has been en- hanced by improvements in methods of processing and containers, so that now apple judce is conveniently available' in attractive bottles as well as in several sizes of cans. People are drinking more apple Mice not onlp because they are told that it is nutritious, but because they like it, Considerable research by several agencies and investigators has con- tributed to the production of better �. quality juice, Improved methods of seledting and handling the frudt, de - aeration and flash pasteurizing of the juice have all assisted in pro- ducing a fine flavoured apple juice at good keeping qualities. Ad- vanceinents in the treatment of tin cans for use with apple juice bave also been beneficial, While it is now possible to give the public a really good apple drink, additional research ie still desirable. Present methods of mantttncture may be further improved with a view to producing not only a Uni- formly ;attractive and appetizing ' apple juice, but one in, which the maximum. nutritive properties have been retained', Tose.

She should realize that she can't get away with a little rosebud of a mouth any more than she can get awap with "cute" clothes. She must strive for sophisticated', mature ef- fects rather than little girl get-hps. Ars she grows older, her skin tones change, of course. And the powder, lipstick, and other make- up which was becoming when she was very young'but won't be flatter- ing at all. . Compensations All of which needn't be discour- aging. Once you are past thirty, you can wear extreme hats, more, eye makeup in the evening, exotic perfume and half a dozen other things you admire but couldn't wear when you were twenty. If you are to remain popular and interesting to others, your - way of thinking, your reading habits and your conversation must neces- sarily change with the years.
