AY OIL --NEC LIME YYs;I'.D ON Llit*E AND PIIOSPidkr PLOTS 1SAtl 60°X., GREATI8R. Results „of Experiments Carried One During Two Past Seasons.. in Sev- eral Different Counties. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agin cult urs.'Toronto.). L ilne and phosphate experiments wero planned by the C,hettiistry.De- partment or the Ontario Agricultural College to determi {e the ,effect of lime and acid phosphate on wheat and the Succeeding' crop bt'clover. Each experiment consisted of four 'one-half acre plots. The experiment was started in the autumn of 1922 when three experiments in each of • the following counties were under- taken: Haliditnand; Norfolk, Went worth„ Brant, Lincoln, Halton, Elgin, and Weil n a d. The fertilizers and lime were applied immediately lleferre seeding the ground ,with wheat. It was not expected that lime 'would in- fluence the crop.of.wboatbut it was applied to see its influence', on the clover following the wheat. When. the, wheat was harvested -in' 1923 it was found that on the 'plots receiv- ing lime and acid phosphate the'yieid was 54 per cent.•greater than on, the check plots. In the autumn of 1923, three ex- periments were laid down in each of eight counties, extending vest and. nest of the original. eight— When the plots in the sixteen "counties were harvested in 1924, it was found that the plots where lime' and acrd Omer phate had, been . applied yielded 45 per cent. more than the cheek plots. The olover was harvested from 'the plots started in the autumn of 1922, and gave a yield of clover on the limed plots forty per Cent. greater than the yield, on the chock plots. The clover .yield on the lime mid phosphate ':plots was sixty per cent. pl• grots.eater than it Was on the check The soil of the plots in these six- teen counties all showed a shortage of lime when taken over by the Department. During the' autumn of 1924 the work was extended to three other farms in each of eight 'additional counties. The results to date on the lime phosphate experiments are very in-, teresting and show. that without doubt.lime may be applied with profit for' clover and' that acid phbspbate may used with profit on wheat.— Dept: heat.-Dept ' of Extension, Ontario Agricul- tural Collope.

The male birds being heavier and stronger crowd the pul— lets away rem the feedandwater, and thereby delay the development of the pullet flock.

Testing for Germination. Is Recom- mended for Good, Results Cannot Be Expected from Poor Seed. (Contrlbuted by Ontario Department: of. Agrloulture, Toronto.) There 13 much difference in• opinion na to the best variety to, grow, and the selection generally hinges on two points, viz., --the value of Hie land and the cost of labor. If you have to pay high for labor and your land .Is high priced,' then grow the heaviest' yielding variety that you can find, taking a chance on its reaching maturity. Production peru acre you, must have. I ' fare on ou low-priced riced.land then y w select a' good yielding, variety that you know will mature •early and also make : high-elaes' ensilage. - Big heavy corn, full of juice is Bard to handle,—it 'costs money to make •silage out of it, --while -the lighter yielding, early maturing corn.is eas- ier to handle„costs less for labor:and makes; a richer silage. True, it will not- produce,as much milk .per acre as the large heavy yielding variety but whatlt dees produce is produced With the aid of less supplementary grain. So if you have abundant land, the early a y maturing, high quality var- ieties will be, most suited to your•' need. On the other, hand if you have few 'acres and must get the most out of the area irrespective of labor cost, then you had best select 'the heavy yielder variety, gest -the Seed Corn. • ' Test for germination every ear of corn that is, used for seed. It does not take' very much time 'to de it. Testing see$ -1s the only insurance you have for a perfect stand. Why take a chance :and loose by, spending your labor .on a field Iwith only half as many plants es there; should be. Better test the seed, and get started right. Two weeks before you figure on planting corn prepare 'a seed box with nioist'sawdust or sand, plant a representative. sample, give it care and Watch for. tie sprouts. Be guid- ed by the performance of the sample tested. Good -seed Corn ifs not aoun dant this year so be careful in your purchase.: Solt or moldy seed -corn never produced a•stroug'plant.

The question. has been raised as to whether milks with varying fat con- tent when mixed, aa. is •done'at the cheese factory,. would give results that average between high and low testing lots made up separately, as is done with experimental testing. Four tests, were madeby dividing lots of milk as delivered to the O:A.C.. Dairy Department from farms sur- rounding Guelph, between two vats, one'of which tested high in fat and the other etnliparatively low. Each vat contained 460 pounds of mills. Froni•each 150 pounds were taken and'mixed in'a third vat. Altogether 1,200 pounds of milk were used in each lot. The average percentages of fat in the milk were 3.95, 3.27 and 3.55. The yields of ,cheese per 1,9.00 pounds of milk were, respec tively 102,6, 94,63 and 97.80. The theoretical yield of the, mixed lots is 98.61 pounds of cheese which is within one pound of the actual. This difference isaccounted for by differ- enees in moisturecontent of .the cheese, - difference in shrinkage and , in losses'; due to handling. the milk, curd and cheese. The average scores 'of the cheese were 89.48, 80.61 dead 88.74 respectively for high, low and mixed 'lots, indicating :that, in the opinion of the expert judge there .was'irot much difference in ;the qual- ity of the cheese. Conclusion.—These tests show that mixed lots of milk 'containing vary- ing percentagesof fat are likely to yield gheese ,averaging fairly, closely to What would, be obtained if the lots, were made separately into cheese, Swept" Clover Butter. The tests made in .butter -making during 1924 with milk from cows' Pasturing on sweet, clover was con- ducted with mills from farms where sweet , Mover was the only pasture. The butter was. made in small lots in the 'Farm Dairy at the O. A. poi lege and was scored by the Official, Butter Grader 'for the Province, As in other years n0 fiavor•'could be de- tected, in the milk, cream or' butter which 'might be..attributed to sweet. clover feeding. 'Five -lets of butter were' made altogether, one from rpw cream churned,sweet, one from raw cream'"i'ipened with a culture, one ripened' without' culture, one from pasteurized cream to whichculture was added and then ripened. Thee° conditions cover practically all that are likely to be met with on the farm or at the creamery The butter was held in coin -storage for two months before it was Budged, in order to allow any flavors to develop that might be present. Sweet clover is a Valuable pasture crop on dairy farms. and 'Should, net be- condemned by. cheese,'or butter manufacturers.- -'f9stensifhn. 0, A,' College.. Winghani: Through the efforts of J. W.
