Tile niaeh hopper insures every hen Opportueiter �f obtaining egg -mak- ing •matetial at some time during the day„ When hens have .mas:h they do not need so much other grain. Enough protein cannot be given to the hens in the form of hard grain. If they have the mash they can eat the ma- terials needed to produce eggs. The use of mash saves enough hard grain to rnak-e its use prattler:I. It also enables the hen to lay eggs and. if mash ieetling was more expensive thee using hard grain, it would still pay to use the mash. The profit with poultry is the difference between egg receipts and feed costs. A ebea.p ra- tion Might bring no profit because of low, egg production. A well balanced ration bringe eggs and Without eggs to sell there is no profit in the hen business, even if the feed cost is close to zero. When there is plenty of sour milk the beef scrap or other protein in the mash can he out in two. Some farm- ers find it a hard problem to feed sour milk in a sanitary manne-r. If the milk is placed in low elshes it is soon full of litter and very unclean. Dirty milk can be a cause of bowel trouble. It pays to place the milk in crocks on low wooden stands. These mocks can be molded and kept free from dirt and guenmy material, They are rather heavily and not easily tip- ped over. They are low in height so the hens can (kink the milk to the bottom of the disk, We have used galvanized pails for sour milk but the hens cannot drink to the bottom of the pail. They may roost on the edges and tip paces over. The dry mash front their bills settles in the bottom of the pails along with other dirt and some of the milk may have tO be wasted when the pails are rinsed. 'Some poultrymen find it a problem to keep hens feorn -wasting every ma- terial that is served in a self-feeding hopper. The hens seem -to have a mania for pulling out mash, oyster shells or grit until the hopper is emptied in the litter and molt of the material wasted. This can be -avoided by making a lip with a small piece of beard on the front of the hopper. Then the trough of the hopper ean !be deep enough so the hens have to reach doven for the material. IX they still waste it, a piece of line mesh poultry wire can be tacked over the opening so the birds will have to peek through the openings -and only be able to ob- tain the material that they sat. . The clogging of dem mash hoppers is a problem if they have narrow throats. The remedy is to build them wide enough so that the mash will not often clog.

The prodecers have profited by reason of the increase in price wbich the good lambs command, as instanced by the difference„of $2.40 per cwt. in favor of the lambs chts•sed "good" for the period. The -re is, however, as yet a great neglect on the put of sheep raisers in the matter of doelang and, castrat- ing male lambs, The foe-me/pre-6- tice adds much to the uniform appear- ande of a load of lanTbs and at the same time minimizes the clariger of lambs becoming infested with mag- gots due to dirty wool One has only to watch a number of lambs gathered together to see what happens where castratioa is neglect- ed.

As the season advances this condition becomes aggravated and the breeder who wishes to keep his lambs Los re later market finds it unprofitable to do so because of the unsatisfactory gains they make. He is the 'loser in two ways: first, beeause the lambs have not made eeonomical gains, and., secondity, because lacking quality, they bring -a lower price: How I Solved the Pasture Problem. For the past four years we have had a long dry spell every summer, My-pasture—mostly ravine arid rough ground, has dried up until the little grass left was fairly bnittle end look- ed dead What to do for green feed foe cows daring that period was the question. I solved that problem this year. I had a piece ef yellow clay ground too pooa for corn, and no manure to spare for that piece I had a quantity of soY7heans and some kacffiraorn seed. I plowed the piece the last of May, harrowed it once, sowed: the soy- beans broadcast, broadcas•ted the kat - fir corn over the same ground, sowed a small quantity of pulverized sheep manure fertilezer, harrowed the ground again •and waited for results. I thought I /night get a little •green feed and at least get a growth for taming und.er later en. That stuff came up and grew amaz- ingly. I began feeding from it about the middle of July, mowing off just the amount needed for a day or two at a time. fedi green feed from that piece until the last of September when the fall rains. had made the pasture good again. The stock ate it clean, dry beans, steins, pod and all. Also I etrall try sorghum instead of kaffur corn in the coinbinatien on a entail pine but then stick to kaffir for the mail,. piece. I have an idea sorgimm wild make -a heavier forage and euroeasder.

The best grains available now are a mixture of ground baxley, cornmeal, finely ground buckwheat, and shorts. Oats are good if part of the buil is sifted out, as are also ground ;brewers' grains, and shorts mixed with double the quantity of sour milk. In general, feed nearly one-third shorts and what- ever finely ground: grains you may have about a farm. The essentials are to select healthy birds, keep pen clean and free from vermin. If chickens donot eat all feed, in fifteen. minutes., remove what is left from pen, and mix ground grain with sour milk if possible. How to Test Concrete. Many times you have been puzzled over the failure oe concrete to last staisfaetorily, and maybe you were inclined to blame the concrete. Gen- erally, however, other things have been the matter. There are a few simple tests of materials that you can make at small, expense without going to a laboratory. Tests of cement. If the cement has been -carefully stored, and he no hard lumps that cannot be readily crushed, with the fingens, it is probablysafe to ase. Of course it should be A 'standard brand, put up in a properly labelecd package. The label: ehoula state the name and address of the maker, the brand of -cement, and net weight01 contents. Tests -for sand and gravel. Piiit a quart glass jar but one-third full of sand or gravel. Fill jar neatly furl of water. Shake jar well for about One minute, rest a while, and then shake jar for anotheT minute. Now allow jar to stead until water above the sand is clear. Note the silt, if any, above the sand, If more than one - sixteenth of an inch of silt appears, the sandis not fit for use for perman- ent work. Fill a 12-ounice prescription beetle to 4 -ounce mark with eand or gravel to be -tested. Now fill to 7 -ounce mark with three per cent solution of sodium hydroxide. (This may be obtained for a fow cents at any drug etore). Shake bottle well, and let stand overnight. Liquid may be clear on may memo from strew to dark brown in color. If darker than light straw calor, ma- terial sbould not be teed, Th -is test howe presence of vege- table matter which often coats grains of sand or gravel with a sent of gela- tin and prevente the -cement from clinging or grippmg the particles and cementing them together. %— Mother should have a kit of tools of her own, not to -be borrowed by the men, for use around the place.

We are teeing in an age of grumbl- ing and fault-finding. Of course, WC all loudly acclaim that it is the result of the Great War—everything is the war. But is it ? If it is, we must wait patently until our soul -wounds are heal -ed. If, on the other hancl, tho pessimism and gloom come teem the murky atmosphere of our 01(711: inner consciouiness, we 01111 mitigate, if not --cure them, by heathy auto-suggee- tion. It is at least worth 0. trial. We -can begin with a fevr simple self -suggestions, such as: • "Tame is no -thing to fearebut fear." "I am happy, and I will succeect." "I will only lbok for the good in everyone I meet." We mig-ht finish up by saying to ourselves, "I am—on the who-le—a very good sort, and I cannot be the only nice person about, so / rill begin to look out fee the good in the others."

Slacien, in his last annual repot no Dominion A.pieriatt, covering the yea/ enelieg March 31, 1021, the great neee is to eeueate beekeep'ere to et/place with modern methecte of neansgement the old- neglectful methods that cone timed to levy toll -of lose, particularly In winter, from brood diseases Ana from old and failing droneebreeding and lost queens. Information on these matters it might be suggested, has been secured and made public by de- monstration and experiment at Mx - teen Dominion Experimental Farms scattered throughout the country, and, it in -ay be added, by the distribu13d-1i of bulletins and- such reports as the ono referred to. Many of the experi- mental problems en Canadienbeekeep- inrg relate to the simplifying of Meth - ode so as to enable the keeper to mere for a larger number of colonies in a given time. lir Canada a great deal of time es spent in handling -bees to pre- vent their svearming. Long, warm, sunny days, each as we :have had this yea, and the heavy honey flows, de- velop a 'stronger tendency to swarm, and the swarming season, lasts longer then it does in the south. In most parts 01 this country the swamning season continues far into the main honey flow, rendering manipulative work fer the -prevention of swarming • particelarly exacting because of the neceseity of removing end afterwardce replacing the supers containing the honey, in order to reach the brood chamber to carry out swarm control operatione therein, The need is a rea- sonably certain method of preventing swarming •and requiring but little labor, ansi that limited to certain days, malcing posolble for the bee -keeper to do similax week in metermiaries in the intervening deli. Sitecesoful manipulation is retarded when the oed queen is left in the hive. The greaten I prodactivity of a young- queen makes the colony more prontable in the sue- ceeding year.
