(0ontribilted by Ontario Department or Agriculture, Toronto.)

The reasOrl .for this difference in method of operation lies in the,differ-e ecce in the nature of the security and; the nature of the loan. ell' .the matter of long-term loans, the secur- ity is a first mortgage on land, and the personality of the borrower, while important, is secondary. In the shoet-term lean% the security is anete or lien .on chattels, and the personality . of the borrower, and his reputation in, the cerratunity, is one of the big determining factors.

The ability of grasses to with- stand continued pasturing is due to the fact that the leaves are tieing putthed up or grow froth the lower or attaehed end. Nibble off or out off the -upper portion of the grass leaves and the leaves will lengthen again and again so long as there is warmth, food arid moisture. With the clover plant it is different. If this type of plant is cut or eaten off new buds must form, unfold and grow tnto stem bud and leaf. Clovers if pas- tured will not yield in feed more than a fraction of what such would produce if the plants were permitted to develop fully. The fact that the bitten blidea of grasses will push up high enough after a few days to produce a second and a third bite makes it possible to pasture grasses with no injury to them. With rea- sonable care and management the grazing of graze areas may go on fu- definitely.---eL. Stevenson. Good Treatanent of Beet ,Calf Pays.
