MY PART
I do not know
What God has planned to come to
ire to -day;
I only know
That He has promised to be my stay;
And that His hand has mapped out
all the way '
`That I must go.
-I do not know
The burden ere the night that 1 must
bear.
'Tis better so, -
.Leet I should faint to see it waiting
there.
I know' -He bids me cast -on Hine. my
care,
His love to AM.
I do not. know
The road o'er which my feet must
run the race.
But I do know
Though rough it be, though steep in
many a stem.
That Ile hath said, "Sufficient is my
grace," •
-As on I go.
We have entered another year and,
while every day brings about a
fresh starting point, still, the ending
of the year seems to be a good time
-to take stock of ourselves, see where-
in we have failed in the past and
plan to do better in the future, and
no doubt many of us have been do-
ing that during the past week. Per-
. serially, I never make any cut-and-
dried resolutions. Probably I have
done so in the past, "when I was
very young," but.not for a good many
year have I sat down and made a
formal resolution. But .I do think
that it is a good time to give oneself
the once-over and try to trim off
angles and start some stunted vir-
tues blooming again. We should all
lilce to feel at :the end of the year
upon which we have entered that
we had made better use of our time;
that we had contributed something
to the world's sum of happiness or of
goodness; than the place in which we
live and Move has beep a better,
happier, wholesomer place than if
we had not occupied it. 'Well, then,
it is up to us! One doesn't grow un-
selfish, thoughtful of _ others, far-
seeing, keen of judgement and an al-
together desirable citizen and charm-
ing person overnight or wholly; by
accident. Such an attainment is us-
ually the result of heredity, train-
ing, environment -plus determination
on the part of oneself. So some of
us probably have something of a
year's task ahead of us. But its
worth some effort to even approid-
mately reach sueh an aim, . now
isn't it? •'
•
As the winter ,advances and cold
increases;, (although it does not seem
to increase this year but to decrease
as the season advances, but no doubt
we shall have some winter still.)
But during the cold season nice hot
supper dishes are appreciated by all
the family, especially thobe members
who are coming in from school or
work. Try this cheese custard,
which is recommended for eitl�ier
lunch or supper:
Six tablespoons of grated cheese,
2 tablespoons of butter, 4 eggs, 1
cup of milk with a teaspoon of corn-
starch .stirred into it, salt and pep-
per. •Beat the eggs and pour upon
them the heated milk (with a pinch
of soda) having thickened the milk
with cornstarch. While" warm add
butter, pepper;, salt, and cheese, beat
well and pour into buttered custard
cups. Bake in a quick oven over fif-
teen minutes. Serve hot, with brown
bread or toast.

They Do Make Good
There is food for thought in the
fact that out of the fifteen times
Canada has won the wheat cham-
pionship at the International Exhi-
bition, it has been won twelve
tines by Englishmen who came to
the Dominion without previous
'farming experience.
Live Stock Instruction
Short course students es well as
regular students attending O.A.C.
are afforded an . opportunity to.
• benefit by all the activities of the
Department of Animal Husbandry,
which has charge of the well ,equip-
ped Live Stock. Farm. For the
last two years the Stock and Field
Crepe Short Course has been ex-
tended from • two weeks to a
months duration, which is so divid-
ed that considerable time is allot-
ted to the judging of the principal
classes of live stock and discussing
the important ',problems. of feeding
and management common to each
class. The 1930 calendar offers an
additional privilege to the Short
Course students in the form of a
six-day course in farm meats.

The sheep population on the fain
has been increased and. sheep
breeding and feeding projects can.
be cartied on more extensively
than in recent years. The swine
herd is up to strength. This herd
provides material for elase-room
and slaughter=house instruction
aswell as hogs?'• for experimental
purposes. The breeding stork have
a number of fall litters that are
quite promising. It will be seen
from this review that the Depart-
ment of Animal Husbandry is do-
ing its part in building up the live
stock industry of the province.
Live Stock 'at O.A.C.
The live stock- at o.A,.C. has gone
into winter quarters in satisfactory
condition despite the shortage of
fall pasture. This year the college
brood mares had an extra fine lot
of foals of the good draughty type
needed to improve the horse indus-
try. They are in good growing
condition and for the present fill
an important place in live stock
teaching work. Quite a number of
cows and heifers in the beef barn
are nursing very promising Calves
and the- situation for instruction
work in beef cattle is favorable. In
the dairy barn, students are able
to work on ring after ring of dairy
cattle that are typical representa-

Water' For Hens
An egg contains a large aniount
of water and the hen's '' body is
likewise composed of ` a great
part of water. The ' 'hen '.should
drink approximately twice ,as much
Water , by weight, as she cats feed.
One hundred hens - that are laying
should consume about four_ gallons
of water per day. In view.of these
facts it is apparent that the water
supply is palnticularly important,
more .so during the winter months.
Failure to supply water properly
hinders digestion and will canse
constipation, with a resultant cur
tailment of. egg production.
Protects Fruit Trees
Two methods are adopted at the
Central Experimental Farm to pro-
tect fruit trees from: injury through
being girdled by mice and rabbits.
The first one is to wrap the trunks
of the trees with building paper,
and the other one is to encircle
the trunk with a wire protector
with a small enough mesh to pre-
vent a mouse from going through
it. In either case the paper or pro -
teeters must be put close to :the
ground, or better still, set in, a
shovelful of cinders. These forms•
of protection should be put on now.

ANAEMIA.
A person .is ' anaemic when the
blood ie , deficient in quantity _ or
quality. When .a considerable a-
mount of blood has been lost through
bleeding, then there is anaemia due
to a deficiency in quantity, and this
condition gradualky corrects itself
as the body, mechanism makes good
the 1dss, i The anaemia due to " poor
quality generally means .that there
are not enough red cells in the
blood, or that the important sub-
stance called haemoglobin found .in
the red cells' is deficient in quantity:
The chief function of the red eells is
to carry oxygen by - means of its
haemoglobin to all the tissues of the
body.. It can be readily understood
:that any interference with this vital
function due to a lack of red cells or
of haemog•Iebin will affect every
tissue' of the body. This may be ex-
pressed in another way by saying
that if the tissues of the body are to
be kept in a healthy condition it is
necessary that the quality of the
blood supplying the tissues of the
body be maintained.
The quality of the blood is lowered
as the result of such general diseas-
es as tuberculosis and cancer. Chron-
ic abnormal conditions of the stom-
ach and other parts of the digestive
tract may affect the blood. With-
out going further into the list of
causes it will be evident that the
proper treatment of such endemics
is the i emoval or treatment of the
cause of the disturbance. Nothing is
to be gained by dosing with so -cal -
Banquet Own Exhibitors
A unique banquet was recently
tendered by the Brant County
Council to Brant agriculturists, in-
cluding all those stock breeders
and grain growers of Brant who
by exhibiting at the big fall and
winter exhibitions in Toronto,
Guelph and Ottawa, had broadcast
the name of Brant County over a
wire area. The guests of honor
and the chief speakers of the occa-
sion were Dr. Christie, president
of O.A.C., and J. M. 1\1IcCallum, in}
charge of the live stock marketing,
Dominion Live Stock Branch, Ot-
tawa. It is hoped that this gather-
ing may be the per:cursor of many
such events in other counties of
the province.
Canada's Victories
Canada's victories at the Inter-
national Live Stock Exposition and
Grain Show in. Chicago have been
the -subject of many eulogistic re-
marks. Among the coveted honors
won by the Dominion were the
championship for wheat, c grand
champion Shorthorn male and fe-
male, grand champion Clydesdale
stallion and mare, champion carlot
of market lambs, numerous eham:
picnships in sheep classes, and
many prizes in grain and seeds se-
cured by exhibitors from Ontario
west to Alberta. Probably the out-
standing individual . victory was
the capture of first prize for the
best bushel of wheat by a hitherto
unknown farmer from the foothills
of Alberta. This impressive show-
ing once again demonstrates that
Canada's soil and climate are the
most favorable in the world for
producing the highest quality farm
products. •
Current Crop Report
Poultrymen in Durham reported
a substantial increase in egg pro-
duction from poultry and in some
cases a .50 per cent. production is
declared. Tile snow and lee have
played havoc with the sugar beets
remaining in the gr'otund in Essex
but interest is maintained in auc-
tion sales at which good prices
art reported. The cheese factory
patrons in Glengarry have been
greatly, disappointed and the reve-
nue from that source is half a mil-
lion dollars less than last year. In
Huron the prices for cream have
been the lowest in three years. A

mixed diet supplies the substances
necessary for the body to produce a
good blood supply. The body cannot
do this work if it is suffering from
disease and so the treatment of dis-

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT CANCER
Cancer is one of the most frequent
causes of death in adults, after the
age of forty. In Canada, over 8,000
people die eaeh year of cancer.
These facts are not presented to a-
larm the reader, but rather to show
that this picture can bd brightened
if the public at large are properly
informed on this subject. Just as
soon as the facts about 'cancer are
known, and our people act upon' the
lmowledge which they have acquired
the number of deaths from this dis-
ease will be reduced tremendously --
to at least half of what they are at
present.
This reduction is possible; it is
within our grasp; it does not await
