Germany. This year those imports
will be almost entirely cut, off. The
German supply, of eourse, will be.
entirelychecked, while France and''
England engaged, as they are, in
,a, momentons world struggle, can-
not supply no ,as'ther have in past
Hence, at this time, it,appears[th
be not only the duty, but [ the'im-

as it has never been before, to sup-
ply root,erep seed for our own con-'
sumption. Ithas beertproven in the'
past that such seed can be grown
Very succeesfull3r-in Ontario. It has
been ,thown by numerous . experi-
ments conducted. at the McDonald
College in Quebec, ab -the Ontario

and iri various plec.e.s. by the Do-
minion seed branch, that • a finer
quality of eeed ,can be- produced in
Eastern ea,nacia, than that which
we have been importing from Eu-
rope. 'Ilhe supply of peed, it ie

Whether it yi11 be a desirable

into seed production on a large
scale or not, is a debatable ques-
tion, but in -view of existing cir-
cumstances, any farmer cannot go
astray by producing enough seed
for his OWI) DSC.
Mr. Paul A. Boling, in charge of
the root crop investigation of the
Cereal Husbandry Departmenb of
the McDonald College, Quebec, has
conducted very complete experi-
mentin growing seed, and gives
some very instrueting reports as to
his methods. It has been found
that the quality of the root

Land intended for eeed growing
should be well fertilized, well
drained, and,, if possible, Sheltered
from heavy wind[s. It should be
very thoroughly cultivated also;
and well packed with a Toiler and
'narked before planting. Common
distancesf are. 24 inches by 24 inchea
ter small roots, and '30 inches by
30 inches for large, roots. Where
the soil is deep enough the roots
should be .plantecl firmly straight
up and down, and should be est

roots, The top a the pit is left
without any soil, so that the heat
may escape more readily entil the
weather gets colder. When it com-
mences to freeze, the pit is further
covered with 6 inches of straw, fol-
lowed by 6 to 8 inches of soil, and
when zero weather set's in, it must
„finally be.protected with a layer of
strawy 'manure. , •
Seed roots do not stand drought
verywell, and snarly growers,
therefore, prefer to place the pit
on or at least in the vicinity of the
next year's seed field, in order to
shorten the haul frein pit to plant-
ing place. In this connection, it
might be well to remembei that the
planting of the seed roots in spying
time should be done -on a eloudy
and calm day in preference to a
day with bright sun and heavy
wind, which tend to dry out the ex-
posed roots, and consequently to
lower the yield of seed.
When apd How of Planting.
Roots ,are naturally cross ferti-
lized, and different varieties be-
longing to the stone kind should
not be planted close to one another.
Mangels should be separated by at

seed needed for a crop valued at
$20,000,000 when this seed can be
raised within the country.
The Eind of Crop to Grow.
The first problem for the future
seed -grower will be the choice of
kind, Shall lie grew mangel,
swede, or carrot seed7 The apswer
to that depends largely upon local-
ity and personal inclination. If a
man prefers to grow mangele, he
will very likely get better results
from seed production from this
crop. It must be remembered,
however, in growing mangel seed,
that the grower muet be in a local-
ity whiclf does net euffer from early
spring or fall frost. Young mangel
shoots are moee susceptible to frost
injury in the spring than are
those of swedes, and as the mangel
seed ripen comparatively late, it is
also more liable to become frost-
bitten in the fall. Carrot seed
ripen very unevenly, and must be
picked by hand during a period. of
several weeks, This tends to make
the culture rather° expensive under
our conditions. In the majority of
cases, the culture of Iswede seed will
[probably give most satisfaction.
All our cultivated roots' are bien-
nials -that is, the first year they
develop it large root, stored full of
food. material. The second year this
fond is drawn upon to form it 11010-
i
ing portion and seeds., If a fatmer
wishee to grow, seeds this year -he
must ,select mote now in storage.
These should be large, sound, well-
developed, true, -to type, and must
possess an uninjured crown. They
ahould also have st smooth eurfacg,
full, rounded tip, and be free front
prongs. If such soots .easinot be
secured in storage, the only, thing
to do will be to acted roots
this fall, and .etore them in a cool
place, or in it pit this winiyer, and
plant ehe' same next spring.
Storage That' Gives Results.
Perhaps it weuld not be out of
place jut r here to give a few.,direc-
tions fer the proper storing of
roots. Stecl roote spoil very easily,
and should be handled very care -
hilly... They eboeld be sboxed imme-
diately after being raised, in a D001
but not too .dry place. Where a
good ',Out cellar is. available it iS
advisable to store them there, if
poseibIe in a standing position, a.ewl
surrounded in. peat soil,or moist
sand, . Otherwise it is better to
store them, in an 101.1t2iCile pit, on
welledrained ,ground. The pit is
made about 6 feet wide, .a,nd the
roote are piled up 3 feet high with
slanting sides, so that dm ,00yering
material will .not slide down. At -
ter piling, the pit i?? immediately
cevened with. a .9hin ,layer of straw,
with the crown reaching the sur-
face. After planting, the root; seed
land should be kept cultivated as
long as possible in order to pre-
serve the moisture.
Harvesting and Threshing.
Very often the lield does not
ripen quite uniformity, and a the
seed on one and the same plant will
not mature Isimu-ltaneously. It is
very important, therefore, that the
seed be hervested at the right time.
The first formed .seed on the lower
part of the seed stock usually
ripens earlier than the rest. This
seed is stronger and more valuable
than, the later formed seed, and
the grower should endeavor to se-
cure it before it Mils off. When
the true seed inside the brownish
cluster on the masigel seed steels
shows a inealy surface when cut
with a knife, the harvest time has
arrived. The swede eeed shoult be
harvested when the bottom pods
get brown on the outside, and the
upper ones becerne yellowish in
color.
When seed is grown in small
quantities, it is, f course, possible
to dry the seed st-ocks by hanging
them up in a Well -aired place ±0 the
house or barn. In this case a sheet
should be spread out on the flooi.
so that no seed will be lost. If a
larger, are.s, iesplantedi the stooks
may be cored in the field, For this
purpose the seed stoCks are tied in
loose sheaves, and left in open
stooks uutil such time as they may
be dry ehough:for hauling to tbe
barn. After that they ,should be
threshed as ,soon as possible, The
seed is cleaned with the fanning
mill, and syith the aid of hand
sieves, and is then spread out in
thin layers. It should be stirred,
daily until quite dry to prevent
beating. After that it may [ be
staged away in hags,
In laying plans to grow his own
root seed, a farmer will want to
know how many. roots lm will re-
quire. Professor C. A. Zavitz, of
the Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph, has found, by experiment,
that plants yield on an average aa
Mangels, 6.6 oz.; earreots,

It mould 'not be 'too Much, per -
has, for a progressive teemer to
plant two oe three hundred man -
gels, turnips or other roots. From
these be :can obtain seed for him-
self and his neighbors. Three hun-
dred anangels .should prodnce about
one hundred pounds of good seed,
and, if eare la taken in selecting

planting,the quality 'of the seed
wilt be much euperier to that whia

N'PrillINATIONAL LESSON,
' APRIL 18.
Lesson III. -The Shepherd Psallia.
Psa-. 23. 'Golden -Text:
23. 1. .
I. -The Good 'Shepherd.
(Versee 1 to 4).
Verse. I. Jehovah is my shep-
herd -To regard tttuier ,Sis a Shep-
herd, in a pastoral country was
eatural. jehoviate, is frequently
spoken of as the Shepherd of Israei,
and-- Israel 'as' his' flock. Jacob
speaks of the "God who shepherded
ine" (Gen, 48. 15; see'also Gen. 49.
24). 'David himself as king was
called the shepherd (see 2 Sam.' 5,
2; 7. 7). The future king, of whom
David was tt, type, was called a
shepherd '(Mie. 5. 4; Ezek. 34. 23),
The use of Shepherd applied to Je-
hovah is frequent in the Psalms (74.
1; 77. 20; 78. '52; 79. 13;430. 1; etc.).
The emphasis on the personal pre
noun my is striking.
I shall, not want-Fiiture assur
name based on past experience
Looking back on ,the journey
through the wilderness, Israel sa,w
that she "la,ckecl nothing" (Dela.
2. 7). Hence -she could look forward
to the Land of Promise and say,
"Thou shalt not. Lack anything in
ft" (Mut. 8. 9).
2. He maketh m6 to lie down in
green pastures -In pastures of ten-
-der grass. This suggests the shack
and coolness and rest during the
noontime heat.
He leacleth me -In the Orient the
shepherd never drives, but always
leads his sheep. Stich was God's
guidance of his people (Exod. 15.
13; Psa, 31. 3; Isa. 49. 10).
The still waters - In Hebrew,
"waters of rest," where refresh-
ment as well as actual rest was
found. •
3. He restoreth my soul -Food
and drink and rest precede the re-
storation of soul. The Good Shep-
herd renews and sustains life.
He guideth me .. for his name's
sake -He could not be untrue to
himself. Hence he must guide into
paths of righteousness (see Exod.
34. 5-7). He "has regard to his
revealed character in shepherding
his lamb and will give direction
because he is what he is, and in
order that he may be known to be
what he has declared himself." "
4. Valley of the shadow of death
-The pastures of Palestine were
not open fields or meadows, but
narrow valleys and defiles where all
sorts of clanger lurked. Wild
beasts were about, clefts and deep
ravines invited to dangerous falls.
Yet in •such a valley -there was /10
danger. It was ne,cessary to go
through these valleys to find food.
The phrase "shadow of death"
means "deep gloom."
Thy rod and thy staff -The shep-
herd's crook was at once a
or club, with which to defend his
sheep from attack and a "staff" on
which to lean,
II. -The Bountiful Host.
(Verses 5 and 6),
5. In the presence of mine enem-
ies -Or, adversaries. Life is not
only short, it is full of conflict. To
prepare a least of good things in
O short life full of gonflict is even
more indicative of it Father's caee
than to lead into green pastures
and beside still waters.
Thou bast anointed my head -
"And, therefore s I know that thou
wilt agaia anoint me." This does
not refer to the anointing of a king
as Saul and David were anointed
by Samuel. The reference here is
to the perfumes and unguents used
at an Oriental banquet (see Pea.
45. 7; 92. 10; Amos 6. 6).
My cup runneth over -In Psa. 16.
5, "cup' is used as if food were
meant. Whatever the "cup" was
or whatever it contained, the idea
is of Jehovah's bountifulness. He
was no niggardly host. What he
gave was in abundance far beyond
what his children could ask or
think,
0. Surely -There could be no
question that goodness end mercy,
or "lovingkindness," should follow
one who followed such a leader.
The word tor "follow" literally
means "to pursize." There was no
escaping the "goodness and lov-
ingkindness," They would over-
take the "follower" of Jehovah in
spite of anything the "follower"
might do.
And I shall dwell in the house of
Jehovah fe r eve r -The Hebrew has
the expressive phrase "f -or length.
of .A perfected kingdom is
coining in which we shall not be
disturbed either by heat or
drought or famine or enmity,.
There will not only be refreshment
and rest on the march ; there will
be a continual abiding in the
Father's house.

peace terms in London, after two
years of fighting, is estimated on
the basis of war costs of thirty mil-
liards of inarks to be sustained by
Germany, Austria, and Turkey, iia

at the end of the
Franco-Prussian war Made the
French pay two and one-haif times.
what it cost to conduct the conflict,
so, the writer believes, Germany
will make the allies pay similarly
at the end of the present war, in
addition, 75 milliards will be de-
manded for the support of depend-
ents of those killed.
The writer sees Germany firmly
established along the present
-French coast, in a position to con-
trol both London and Paris, and
possessed of an air fleet of many
thousands of machines and 20,000
airmen. He sees England forced to
consent to. the construction of a
'tunnel under the English Channel,
equipped with four railway tracks
and an automobile roadway, et
both ends of .which the GermaTl
forces are in control.
Russia he pictures as completely
dismembered, its territory divided
up among neighboring powers, its
coffers depleted to the point of
bankruptcy, its menace to the Ger-
man empire forever gone. In the
process of dismemberment he pre-
dicts the organization of new states.
Sweden, tbe author believes, will.
receive Finland; Germany, the Bal-
tic provinces a.nd Poland; Austria.
-will take -the entire south of Rus-
sia, including Kieff and Odessa;
Turkey will receive the entire Cau-
casus, including the government of
Saratoff ; Russia will have to retire
both from the Baltic, the Black, and
the Caspian Seas.
Servia is to go to Austria-Hun-
gary. Egypt te Turkey a part of
Arabia to Roumania, provided the
latter allies itself sincerely with
Germany, Austria and Turkey ; and
every other -state. which similarly
joins this group will be properly re-
warded.
