Potatoes For Feed
As- The feeding of, potatoes to live
stack provides a very satisfactory
slutles for the. lower 'grades of the
crop. Second-gitalde potatoes nlay be
used as a feed for hog's and also in
Iimited amounts for cattle, sheep and
horses as a substitute for grain.
For pigs the, potatoes should be bell-
ed, mixed with the grain and fed
with rather ',concentrates.. A. protein
supplement needs to be fed witth this.
Experiments indicate that it takes a-
bout 420 pounds •of'potatoes, fed af-
ter cooking, to equal 100 pounds of
corn or barley. For the best results
in swine feeding the proportion of
potatoes in the ration ssbould not be
greater than four piounds to one of
concentrates. Potatoes may furnish
half of the dry matter in the ration
for cattle and sheep and one-fourth
RA' horses. Dairy cows should not
receive more than abort 35 pounds
per day as larger amounts may im-
pair the quality •af .butter produced.
For fattening sheep, from two to
three pounds -daily should be fed with
the grain. For cattle and sheep
feeding, the potatoes shouldd be chop-
ped and 'nixed with the grain, and
should be raw. They may be fed raw
to hogs, particularly bx'oed saws, if
time and labor cannot be spared for
cooking.
Improvement .Association Formed
Breeders .of all kinds torp farm
stock in Elgin County were brought
together recently at St. Thomas to
form the Elgin Lives Stock Associa-
tion. One of •the first activities
planned by the organization is to
make a ball census 'ca the county and
to institute a campaign to eliminate
the scrub bull so that 'at least 80 per
cent. may be purebred.
Three directors each were chosen
from the different townships. N.
Martin, Springfield, was elected pre-
sident; J. E. Pierce, Wallacetown,
vice-president, and flet: her Thomas,
agricultural representative, was made
secretary -treasurer. '
Preventing Fires
Fire Marshall E. P. Heaton recen-
tly issued a warning to farmers that
they 'should exercise greater care in
harvesting and storing their crops
if they hone to avoid losses through
spontaneous combustion. At the close
of the Inquiry into aVentworth Coen-
ty barn fires, he sdgested that farm-
ers revert to the old -tine custom of
using salt in curing crops. .Salt; . be
pointed lout, aided greatly in prevent-
ing fires. He also advocated that
fire extinguishers be carried on all
threshing machines. Static electric-
ity in the blower of the thresher,
watch can be overcome by grounding
wires, was the cause of at least one
fire in Wentworth. .
Feed Sunshine
Cod Iiver oil, the sunshine substi.
tute, is one !cf the most important
items in the property balanced poul-
try ration. Where birds are closely
' confined during the Winter months,
as is the case in most parts of Can-
ada, they receive very little direct
sunlight, and 'with the rations usually
fed they do not receve aII the vita-
mins they require. Calcium and
phospherus are two minerals spec-
ially required .for laying pullets and
hone in the manufacture of eggs,
The digestion and assimilation of
materials, especially eat'oiu.m, require
one of two things; an abundance of
direct sunshine or an abundance of
vitamin D. Cod liver oil is rich, ie
vitamin 1), and is one of the reliable
seethes of this type of food.
Grading Helps Exports
Dependable quality is an advan-
tage'in the export market. In the
past year export of eggs from IIali-
fax to Bermuda have held •steady_de-
spite the advantage of loiver prices
enjoyed by competing expert product.
This is a fine indication of the value
of standardized grading fon eggs and
of the benefit of government inspeo-
tion of expert eggs. Canadian ex-
porters have secured the confidence
of the Bermuda5 market in the qual-
ity of their product and the relia-
bility •of •our grades. The same is
true with respect to. the export of
eggs to Newfoundland, where quality
is winning. confidence wills the result
that important new markets for
_Canadian eggs are developing.
Weekly Crop Report
Live stook generally is repented
:to be in fairly good condition and
:nest fatmrersare depending on
'using Immo grown products for feed
this year., With plenty of roots to
add; succulence to the rations, and
a good quality of roughage available,
Sive stock should fare well. A, report
from Grey County indicates that the
cold storage plant at Thornbury has
been the means of greatly inereasing
tire returns from apples. The dairy
cattle market is reported active from
several areas, with sales to New
York State; Quebec and ,other parts
of Canada. There is a good deal hof

Excellent Work Done by Growers'
Markets Council
Wonderful things have been ac-
complished in the short time the
Ontario Gnawers' Markets Council
has been established. An enormous
increase has been made in the volume
Of Ontario 'fruits and vegetables
shipped West in 1931 as compared to
1930. A great deal sof this was due
to the progress made in grading and
central products packed in the way
they want them. A promotion and
sales representative was maintained
in the West as well as in tee Mari-
times and at least three times the
quantity •af Ontario produce was
consumed in the East as in any pre-
vious year. The grape growers
were •helped • out in their problems,
and although prices have been low,
the grapes have been sold without
depenclafg on the wineries as in farin-
er year's. Progress has been made
toward a better' understanding with
canners, that if they want the grow,
ers' support tatvan:I the idea of Cana
dian Manned goods for Canadians the
producers must get proper considera-
tion.
•
With orders obtained and inquir-
ies for more Ontario boxed peaches
and other commodities than could
be delivered this seaclon, the abso-
lute need from the selling point of
view for the success of the registra-
tion drive now being featured by the
ccenei, was emphasized by Charles
W, Salmi, secretary, Ontario Grow-
ers' Market Council, 10 141;csiab
Street, Hannilton, Similar experien-
ces as with peaches were bad with
cabbages and ether conumodiiies.
"The Council is following markets
and extending old Markets for On-
tario products,"'ecnthned itlr, Barer:
"Already a representative is main-
tained in Western and Eastern Can-
ada and in Great Britain. Starting
late in the season, only the surface
possibilities have been scratched
this year, but the valuable
point is that we are helping fasters
to sell their products in a large way
at a low cost and in addition are
opening up new and unexpected Mars
kets. For example, this year, for the
first thne in more than «a decade,
ever 400,000 barrels of Ontario zips
pies are expected -to be shipped to
Great Britain at profitable prices to
our growers.
"While registration will serve
many other purposes, such as pest
and disease control, provide snarling
lists for marketing and either infer-
nietion, yet its primary purpose is to
enable the Council to know who pro-
duces the various varieties of fruits
and vegetables in the province and so
be able ta•put buyers to -touch with
growers • who wish to sell their pro-
ducts."

Canadian National Railways while, in
the previous year, the figure .was
49;257',000 •bushels. Arrivals at the

ings amounted. to 83,.472 cars and
81,305 ears respectively.
The Movement of grain to the Pac-

1931. A total of 22,369 cars were
delivered to Vancouver, New West-
minster and Victoria in comparison
to the` 18,015 ears delivered , during

Prince Rupert, arrivals were 938 cars
in 1931 and 118 cars in 1930.
Although there was ate elevator
construction at Lakehead or Tide-

additional elevators were . built at
country points on new branelh lines
of the Canadian National Railway.
Their construction increased the
storage capacity +of country eleva-

A total of 4.853 cars +of grain
were delivered to the Canadian Na-

berta Railways during the year as
compared to the 3,493 cars delivered
during 1930.
A healthy increase in the percen-
tage of grain handling is indicated
in a statement of government grain
inspections, which shows that the
C.N.R. handled 63.4 percent of the
cars of prairie grain shipped in 1931.
Leeds County Calls for
Retrenchment
At a meeting !ot farmer's in Leeds
county at which 200 were present,
these gentlemen placed themselves on
recons as *'lows:
"That the number of banquets
given at the public expanse be re-
duced by ninety per east.; that the
mansion of the lieutenant -governor
at Toronto be closed; that no member
of parliament or official :be groveled
with autoanobiles or upkeep of the
same, with the exception of veterin-
aries, officials of the highway de-
partment, and the agricultural re-
presentatives; that no more passes
be issued on the railways at public
expense; that salaries of members
of parliament and public servants be
reduced as folesws: from $1,400 to
31,800, 10 per cent; freers $1,800, to
32,500, 15 per rent., from $2,500 to
33,500, 20 per cent.; 53,500 and more,
25 per cent.
"To the federal government were
directed resolutions similar to those
above and cowering the reduction in
banquets, the providing of ears and
upkeep for members of parliament
and the reduction in salaries of
members of parliament, pubic ser-
vants and Canadian National Railway
officials.
"Various .other suggestions were
incorporated in a wide range of reser-
Miens
ese
lutians adopted at the meeting. These
included a request 'to the provhtcial
government that it suspend all con-
struction of roads and public build-
ings until such time as the flamer is
able to obtain $36' per ton for hie
nrii'k and 812 per hundredweight for
his hogs; a demand for the abolition
of county councils, since they have
'outlived their usefulness," and of
anther demand for a reduction of
the civil service and a lowering of
sessioial indemnities paid to mem-
bers of parliament." •

The representative of •the Family
Herald and Weekly Star was delighted
ila pay this splendid region a brief
visit. As the scribe dram along this
road to within a mile olf the county
seat, he mated sone wonderfel mod-
elling in cement, and he was full sof
curiosity regarding ,the owner of a
farm so ornamented.
He found on this farm forty-five
acres 'orchard, twenty-five acres of
a Maple grove planted by the own-
er, to say nothing of one thousan3
walnuts that had been set out by
bin. In addition there is a fine herd
of Jersey rattle, and evidences of
general farming.
The smatter of apple sales was up-
permost in the scribe's mind, and he
asked Mr. Laithwaite if he practiced
anything special in this line, when
the foregoing answer was given,
Then folItuwed a few shrewd ques-
tions as to merchants in London and
in other places, who would be likely
to e5 -operate i}i the work of giving a
ha'pful fruit display.
"Here are my advertising card's,"
Mr. Laithwaite continued, aid he proms
dueed cards that are the last thing
in legibility, in neatness and attract-
iveness. On these cards one finds
the name 'orf the fruit exhibited, also
the nano and address of the owner.
IIIc. Laithwaite has hilly thirteen var-
ieties of apples in his erehard. He
and his boys know how to peek apples
so as to visuat'.ize the qualities they
possess,
'When the newspapermen found
