Efficiency of i)airy Cow,. ,
Theefficiency of -a dairy cow de-
pends upon a properly developed
;udder and its continuance in a nor
mat condition. The most serious con-
dition that occurs to the dairy cow
Is Infection of the udder, and strep-
tococci aro the most frequent bac-
terial invading organism. Streptoc-
cic . intectioi. can , be readily trans-
mitted'fron cow to cow by hand or
machine milking and the entire herd
may become infected. The disease is
difficult to contra. because of the fact
that an occasional CON is a .carrier.
The most successful treatment con-
sists in increasing the resistance of
the animal by ,the use of liacteriae,
In badly infected herds a bacteria
prepared from cultures isolated from
diseased cows is most efficient. With
the., destruction of the mammary'
gland profits vanish.
Gain Made by Early Fall Ploughing.
Weeds materially reduce the yields

they show' above grodnd these

cation may be made during the fall
months. '
Early fall ploughing will conserve
the moisture already, in the soil, and
puts the fields in condition totake up
readily any rain that. occurs during
_the autumn, Various insect pests

AN .APRIL ADORATION ,
Sang the sunrise on au amber morn—
"l ai'th be glad! An April/ Tay is born.
"Winter's done and April's in the
slues,
Earth, .look with laughter in.' *our
eyes."..
Putting off her dumb dismay of snow
Earth bade all her, unseen children
grow.
Then the sound of growing hi the air,
Rose to God, a liturgy of prayer.
And the thronged succession of the
days,
Uttered up to god a psalm of praise.
Laughed the ruining sap: in eve'y
vein,
Laughed the running fitu ries of
warm rain.
Laughed the life' in every wandering
root,
Laughed the tingling cells of bud and
shoot.
God, in all the concord of their mirth,
Heard the adoration song. of Earth.
—Charles G; D. Roberts.

of rags null tatters and you, Yourself,
are reduced to dispels', while your
carefully dressed hair looks as if you
had been out in a severe windstorm
for an hour or two, The only hat in
the shop which will go on your head
you discover gives you a decidedly
".fiat" look, the very opposite of what
you desire. Then milady, seeing your
, extrennely"ffiew" state, suggests that
she will make you a hat, similar to
one of the shapes you like but largo
enough to fit you, and you agree,
with the inward feeling that some-
thing will be sure to be wrong wi,th
that hat, But anyway, it is the best
that can be done,,so you put on your.
old: hat,: which had -never given you
much room to acquire swelled head,
and depart, until the ceeatiot is fin-
ished.
Why do manufacturers of women's
hats not make them according to
measui•enients, as men's hats are
made? W'muen's heads are built on
the same plan as hen's, why not
treat them ' the same 'way?
This
would do away with the ordeal of try-
ing on a hundred or so hats which
you cannot possibly wear.
The Duchess of Atholl, M. P., of
.England is in Canada in, the interests
of education, having come to attend
the Educational Council in Montreal.
She will also tour Canada, going onto

itor of note, not the `husband. Eng-
lish women are taking a -keen inter-

believes that Svolnen should make

bat she is not of the sort that holds

some women put it, the only oc-
cupation for women is participation

One of the changes which has taken
place in rural life in Ontario during
the past twenty years is the habit
formed by many housekeepers of buys
ing instead of baking bread for their
families. 8Iany in both town and
country do still' bake, ,of course, as
statistics show, but the baker's
wagon has its regular route and even
the stores in the smallest hamlet
~snow ]seep bread for sale, for it isnot
an unconnnon thing for fanners'
families to use ' bakers' bread alto-
gether: Twenty or twenty-five years
ago this was almost unheard of. But
then, fifty or sixty years ago farmers'
wives and daughters also made their
own yarn and even cloth; while today.
and for.manyyears, the spinning
wheel has been banished to the attic.
