When the calf is dropped. it should be -allowed to yemain with its d•am until elle ha z licked it -clean and dry, or else be removed to a separate stall and rubbed dry with wisps of straw ora piece- of bagging. If at all pos- sible, the winter raised calf should have the brightest, driest and -sunniest place -inthe stable for i3 winter quar- ters, and they should be kept -cleat art all times, for comfortable quartere mean almost as inteth as good feed- ing. The calf should receive within twelve hours; a feed of the .celostruen or fled milk from its dam. It is im- portantthat the calf gets a feed of this 11111k. so it hue a beneficial effect on the bowels and ensures the calf getting tha peeper start, For the first few days the cow should be milk- ed and the calf eed three times daily, the mins being fed while still at bind heat. Eight to ten pounds per day should be sufficient for the average calf.' Feed the calf whole milk for the first two to four weeks depending on its strength., a weak Or puny calf being carried on whole milk for the loegest period. Gradually change from whole milk to skim milk, making the period in which the change is made extend over about ten days, as abrupt changes are apt to bring. on digestive troubles. At this time the calf theuld be consuming about twelve pounds of skian-millt daily in two feeds. As the change is made from whole to skim milk the fat rernoved. from the milk sbould be replaced by adding a tablespoonful of finely ground scalded flaxseed jelly. The pro- portion of the flaxseed jelly endekim- milk can be increased gradually and •et about three months of age add to the flaxseed jelly other constituents to make a call me -al composed of ground flax 1 part, fine geoundltoats 2 parts, and ground corn 2 parts—this mixture to be fecl in the intik, similar- ly to the flaxseed jelly, at the rate of lie pound per clay at the start, gradu- ally increasing to one pound per day at four to five months. At this time the altineeniik ration may be cut off and the di.'y grain ration mentioned below increased propo-rtionately. It is well to start the calf eating a little thy and bulky food as early as poesible. With this end in view a small quantity•of fine clover hay and whole oats -should be kept before the calf alter it is a month old. As the calf grows older the whole oats may be replaced by a mixture of bran, rolled oats, and/ground corn. This mixture should be fed at noon a the rate of, IA pound per day at start, up to 11/2 pounds per day, at time of re - ,1°11f511("". 7 mist, 73 Adeleide St. Wept, Toronto diming skim -milk end -calf nteel ture, wbich time the dry grain Mixture May well be ineveased to 3 pounds per day , and he fed 'in two feeds, morning and evening.

The Acre We Added. Give nature an bleb 'and she'll take an ell, and do it so quick it ivall make ur yohead swine: That is what hap- pened in our cow pasture. We did not get oround to cut the brush for a few years, and when we did, we found that it had grown up so that the pasture was producing ;much less than it had when we stopped trimming it up regularly. "Cut off. that brush, Father; and -we can keep half a dozen more cows?' So said the smelt man of the lane arid the idea got a good grip on us. -So strong ahold, in fad, that we ground up the tools and spent all our spare time that fall cutting the stuff off.. The poles that were large enough for wood, we trimmed and laid in piles to dry-, and later we drew them down to the 'house and "buzzed" them up,They made pretty good wood, too although the sticks did not have , lasting 'qualities that wood cut from mur ate tress does. The small branches were cut off anti for this we found that a sharp bush - hook is the best tool, a good deal bet- ter in fact than an axe. A single blow severs a limb an inch in diameter. We piled the brush carefully, taking pains to press them down tight together, and left them to cure out fon the burning that came that fall. All round among the brush We found a good many briers which had borne. berries earlier in ,the season. These we cut with a stout scythe, pulling them together with a pitchfork, adding them to the heaps of branches cut from the saplings. The field. looked fine after we had been over it this way. It looked finer, however, after -the brush had been burned ancl the pole weed hauled away. The most sur- prising • thing about it was the fine quality of the. grass which grew in -where that brush had been: Without any seed at -all a good lot of white clover came in and the cattle ate it with the greatest possible good appe- ,tite. So. we added our acre to the pasture. More are coming. , A good many of our people, especi- ally those who raise poultry on the farm as a diet issue, experience great difficulty in obtaining eggs from the hens during the cold winter days. The last few years, one dozen eggs pro- duced from the flock during wintry weather his comma/Wed a higher price than two dozen dining the spring laying days. ' If we would only stop to analyze the contents of an egg, we ,would learn that it contains all ingredients neces- sary to produce a living object—bone, muscle, bleed, etc.—and mini a hen gets We kind of food to make these parts, there will be no egg. During the summer months, when- ever we mow the lawn, I immediately gather up the lawn clippings and spread them in the shade to dry. In, this way the sun does not blenh the young blades, and they cure a natural green. When thoroughly dry the clip- pings are stored away in gunny sacks, and Wang up to the rafters of the barn or s-hed until -needed. ' During the -cold winter clays, when green food cannot be obtained, they are fed once 0. day of these laWn clip- pings, always at midday. It is pre- pared as follows: To a peck of the clippings enough boiling hot water is added to covet. This ie allowed to steed for half at home When the eliPpinge will turn as green as the da they were cut. Then I put ,brati to the mixture until it pro. dant a mash.

The farmer's wife as a type; as a human 'being separate and distinct froin other women; as .0 tonvenient creation of the imagination of social end political reformers; as a down- trodden class, wan out through weary years of isolated drudgery, variegated by maternity and its du- ties—the farmer's wife, fashioned after these Minnow images, does not exist, except as an individual, here and there. She is largely a myth or what each I:beadeer imaginesher to be that be may support his pet theory. The real truth is that there are as many kinds of earner's wives as there are women whoze husbandare fath- ers. They are individualities and per- sonalities, every mother's daughter ef them, eaeh sufficiently unlike any other to make her unique in the hu- man family and in her relatioe to her environment and place in thdworld. The farmais wife iewhat she indi- vidually tied essentially IS and not what some one thinks she ie or ought to be. 'Sha is, fad of all, a woman, racially endowed with the instincts, primal dialedspePial mul, distindive aspitations which- differ- entiate her sex from the other sex. Secondarily, she is, a fartnet's wife, living in the open country, undet an infinite Variety of condition-, from ab- ject and grinding poverty to a large degree Of modestly -won wealth, ac- companied' on lier part by an inspir- ing serenity and centehtment, If she were a term -reared girl, she has the manners% and exhibits the behavior common to all wifeeten of her day and generation who have grown to weinan- hood on faems and married' farmed, When \ye thitk of the farmer's wile we think of a -women, a member of the human family, a pers'otality of veieying power and capacity, common - 1Y ...hut not invariably a real helpmeet for the mat sh,e marries, in most cases a geed Mother, doing well What falls to her lot and working out a ithigte destihy largely- °untitled -by the in - sauteed° laws of herectityi influenced to time extent by env,ifoninent Hones* is the beat policy; but a man whe is benest onlY through polity cannot' be 'depended on to resist very much temptation.

A similar result could have been obtained be. adding 'butterfat or fats obtained from certain kemienal organs, huteether fats such as lard, almond oil and cottonseed oil would not have •brought about the same result: These facts might well cause ui.; to stop and think. Because of the fact that some fate naturally contain sub - stenos necessary for growth, while other fats do not contain such sub- stances, there has arisen the necessity of speaking of the presence or ab- sence of a fat soluble vitamine. There is 0 tendency to use plant oils as substitutes far .butterfat, even claiming for them a value equal to that of butterfat. 'No plant oils so far investigated, and these include cotton- seed oil, almond oil, peanut oil, cocoa- nut oil, and sunflower seed oil, con- tain the fat soluble vitainine in ap- preceoble quantities. It is false to claim these as substitutes for butter- fat. ' We do not condemn them, for they are valuable food products as sources of energy, and their use for that pur- pose should be encouraged, but they should sell • under their own banner and be need in nutrition for exactly What they are worth. To remeve the butterfat froin whole milk and replace it with cocoanut oil and then claim that the product is equal to whole milk for the nutrition of growing children is not true. Prosperity and a Better - Community. Big bank acounts and empty lives do not make up the ideal reward to- ward which we should work in our business of farming; nor should we entirely forget the economic side to devote lull attention- to social prob- lems. In fact neither of these lines of effort tan go ahead at full speed without the other. . They ahould beth have attention. .Teane work is requir- ed. There is need to do all the things necessary to make agriculture pros- perous for the average family and at the same time each member of a -ay family should have all the stimuli to thinking and achieving that come from mingling with other peo- ple in school, in church, in commun- ity organizations and in reading. Just now the great bidiness of farming is rapidly changing an•d we are quite likely to suffer from its transitory character, se it behooves us to watch and maintain a true balatce between out efforts for gain and .the develop- ment of a love for farm life—between work and ideals, between business and home life, between financial prosper- ity and a better -community in which to live.

Everywhere we go -there are a thousand things to develop the best there is in us. Every sunset, land- scape, mountain, hill and tree has secrets ef charm and beauty waiting for us to diseover. In every pateloof meadow or waving field of wheat, in every leaf and blodom, the trained eye well see beauty which would rav- ish an "aegel. The cultured ear will find harinony in forest and field, mel- ny in wind and dream, and untold pleasure in all nature's songs. It is astonishing hew much beauty we can see everywhere when we look for it. A naturalist roaming about the country in search of specimens stop- ped near a farmhouse end filled his bottle with brackish water from a muddy pond. While doing this he bird a farm band who stood watching him what wonderful things a micro- scope would reveal in that water. "Within this pool, my man," said he, "are a hundred, nay a million uni- verses; bad we the sense of the instru- ment by which we could apprehend them." The man with the hoe, unmoved by this remarkable statement, replied, "I know the water be full of tadpoles, but they be easy to catch." He saw only tadpoles where the naturaleet saw miracles of nature. The most loathsome object, if put under aenagnifying glass Of sufficient power, will reveal beauties undreamed of; so, even in the most unlovely en- vironment, in the most cruel condi- tion, there is something of the beauti- ful and the hopeful when viewed through a trained, disciplined rebid.

If, for example, his development re- sults in the destruction of the beet table cloth, or of his playmates' toys, or the ended on the visitor's motor, his mother remarks that "Reginald was jutt finding out He is so tor- ious to know about everything, Come, Dear, and say that it was a mistake and y,ou are sony." So Reginald says tt with an easy sorrow that pops glib- ly, by long practice, from his lips and he continues to pursue his destructive waywardned with the surety that if he says he issorry when Mother tells him to, all will be well and the help- less and outraged will be silent, That Is the same child who will expect to isa forgiven in later years no Mateo what his 'misdeeds, if only he express- es his sorrow for, the outward, tone. glances of his fun, after he hag had. it.

I stood on our front verandah 'be- side a friend of my childrenWho had come to wait us. He docked out across the country and said to me, "Mary, I have never keee more beautiful view than this anywhere. I've seen wilder 'and grander country but nothing more beautiful, -and I envy you for having a home in thie spot." He had just returned from a trip through Italy and France (peaceful then) end I must confess that I felt that if he had seen nothing more beau- tifid than -what was spread out before us, he had idled away a lot of money to very little purpose. Fortunately I did not tell him so. I had spent practicelly all my life in the country' and had, little patience with farm poetry and orations about tbe joys of country life. I always had it secret longing to live in towel; life there ap- peared to be so easy and wall so many interesting and beautiful things to enjoy. The following spring I was not well and far from happy. Spring as a busy, time on the farm and for a while I refused to go away; but I could do libtle work and finally consented to travel with my husband's sister, Em- ma, who had a business tour to make. First we visited a mining village, only about twenty miles away from Sons., but as different as could be and verv interesting. Emma's position o d many doors to us. We went t b the hig brealeer, we explored et mines, saw coal in its natural nd something of the mining prO s. We were shown acres and acres of -the big "stripping" (some- thing like a great stone quarry), and in the high walls.of solid coal we saw great hands of -peacock colors glowing in the sun. I actually envied the woman in whose home we were staying; she Could enjoy this most interesting place every day!' I was full of questions and that evening as we sat on the verandah I asked her many ciaestions: Was the coal stamped or ground in the breaker? Hew deep was the 'shaft where the men were let down in a mige? How thick was a vein of coal? What did the men mean by "black damp," "oubcrep," "gangway"? Why was some coal "stripped" and other "mined"? That woman could not answer one question! "1 don't knew," was her usual ropier and her manner added; "and I don't caret" Emma joined 'us as we talked and asked about the wonderful fossils that the woman's husband had collected: ferns, leaves, bird and animal foot prints. Her answers were the sane. The one sub- ject she liked to talk about was her loneliness, her leek of opportunity, and her dislike foe this "dirty," anal - region town, filled with foreigners. She wanted the theatre and flower shows and big stores, and crowds. She Wanted to live in -a city! I was puz- zled. A Different Paint of View. We were more fortunate when we met the jolly little echool teacher. She bubbled over with interest in eveeything around•her, She told us about the free class in English for foreigners that she and the young stenographer had conducted -all win - tee; of the lessons in French that one of the engineers hael given them in return; of the Italian she was learn- ing from her school boys. 'She told of the folk songs -and the beautiftel :heal the foreign women had taught her. "Oh, it ie a wondetful plate!" she cried. She' did not pine for city flowee shows, She told us that idle the thee the first sunny dope WOO graced by arbutus, to the frosty days that temehed the goldeneed, the open woods stretching away from the oslfl- inig town were filled with flowers. It was hard to realize that she and our hostess were describing the seine place. I was puzzled again—and thinking. Out of my thoughts grew a plan. Then I began to look toward home and as the days went by I was really longing for the farm. I would not have believed that could ever be .to glad to be at home.

Then and there I took time to "look and look and look" at the green fields, the dark woods, the freshly plowed earth, the misty veils that marked the brooks, the distant mountains, mid the wonderful sky over all and I began to feel the beauty and to receive a mes- sage of peace and security that I had never allowed them to bring me be- fore.

A row of surnachs, beautiful all mini-' mer and wonderful in the fall, bides the pig pen; a screen of evergreens, brought from the woods, shuts off the cow yard and shelters it from the north wind; the .drain is closed over; the ashes are out bite a covered bar- rel and regalarly carted into the mud holes en the lower lane. I keep the garbage pail, the washing machine, even the drub bucket and the dish pan "out of sight and out of mind" when not in use; and keep, where I can see them often, a blooming plant, a pitcher of wild flowers, or -some pret- ty china. I have learned how to take time to look into the heart of a flower until I feel se -me of its beauty; when a zong sparrow perches on the spring -house roof and nearly bursts his little throat singing to inc ,I etre) to listen, and it takes the drudgery out of my scrub- bing.
