Advance of Branded Beef The .popularity of beef as food has a much deeper foundation time simply its appeal to the palate. It not only contains many of the ele. merits necessary for the proper growth and development of the hu- man body but it supplements and improves the value of .many of the Inter -Club 'Competitions nutrients found in grains and vege- tables. ,In Canada /there is another The annual Ontario Boys' Inter - Club competitions for Calf, Swine; Grain and Potato Clubs are being 'held at the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, on Thursday , No- vember 7th. Many coveted trophies and valuable cash prizes are being offered for (competition. From the winners will be selected the teams to represent Ontario in the National contests at the Royal Winter Fair. It is interesting to recall that in 1934 teams -from 24 Calf Clubs, 10 Swine Clubs, 17 Grain Clubs and 11 Pota- to Clubs competed for Provincial honours. In the National Contests at the Royal Winter Fair, Ontario stood first in the Dalry Calf project, second in Swine, first in Grain, and second in Potatoes. During 1935 there were e en ra11ed in the s pr ov in ce , 5,746 boys and girls in 423 clubs. Club work is a definite project work for boys and girls between the ages of 21 and 30 and the principle em- bodied in the' phrase. "Learn to do by doing" is carried out to the full- est extent.

In the case of Government graded beef,•a step fur- ther has been taken. In addition to the "Canada Approved" mark, there is a Government mark or brand of quality- in the form of ribbon-like marks running lengthwise of the carcass. A section of this mark ap- pears on every individual cut, and thus the purchaser is assured of re• ceiving the quality paid for. The red brand marks the best quality, entitled "Choice," and the second quality called "Good" is branded in of this blue.The gradual spread knowledge in one way accounts for the steady advance in the sales of Canadian branded beef. The total sales during the month of August 1935 amounted to 3;509,913 pounds, bringing the total for the eight months of the year to 27,823,692 pounds, or approximately 640,000 pounds more than in the correspond- ing period of 1934; 6,848,527 pounds more than in 1933; 13,529,389 pounds more than in 1932, and 15,- 050,028 pounds more than in 1931 when the system was initiated, Timothy Seed Prices FARM GODEiRIGH: After an illness of dredged out a strip along each pier four years Naomi Runilball, wife at elle channel, and out to thegap of William E.

It would appear that there may be about eleven million pounds •of seed available for commerce as •ogainst five million pounds in 1934 and an annual consumption in re- cent years of approximately seven million pounds. Owing to the surplus in sight. Canada is now for the first time in history on an•export Price basis in respect to this seed. In the past years prices at Chicago Plus freight and import charges were the basis of value` in Caanda, where- as this year, domestic prices may he based on •Chicago quotations less freight and export charges. As a result of this.changed situation pric- es are now very low. At this time last year timothy seed was selling in Canada at fifteen to twenty cents per pound as against three to four And a half cents per pound at the jreoent time; Surplus production this year resulted from two main factors, i.e., the .high prices of last Year which stimulated production and the abnormally large hay crop which permitted farmers generally to leave fields for seed rather than cut for hay. t Standard Poultry Boxes How To Carve That Turkey Thanksgiving is over, but Christ- mas is conning and all young hus- bands should lcorn to carve. The following hints from the little book- let on "The Fine Art of Carving" may prove helpful. Storing Farm Machinery Ilardwood of adiv kind is not suit- able for standard dressed poultry boxes. Accordig to the Canadian Standards, lumber- used for making these boxes must be a sound, clear, dry quality of soft wood planed smooth on both sides free from knots, and square, straighteedge stock but not tongued or groved. When boxes are made up, there are five essential points; (1) each side and end must be in one piece and be square cut, (2) tops and ,bottoms must be flush. with and fit - flush ov- er both sides..(3) an allowance must be made for a small space of not mere than a sixteenth of an inch, be- tween the boards on top and bottom of the box to assist quick sharp freez- ing when placed in shorage, (4) the bottoms and tops should be in at least three pieces, and (5) wide , boards 'should be used as outside boards in both tops and ;bottoms. The nails used should only be long enough and strong enough to give the necessary strength, so that the weight of poultry contained in the box may be shipped -in safety.• - In packing, strict observance should bo paid to the allowance variation in weight in birds packed in the same box—squab and broiling chickens not over 1-4 pound per bird; all other chickens and fowl not, Over .1-2 Pound; /turkeys and geese not more than 3 pounds.

Also the carv- ing knife should be quite long and should be kept very sharp. The carvers should be sharpened before the guests take their places. Many men, however, are very proud of the accomplishment of being able to whet a knife. In any event the blade should never be used for any ether purpose than carving. It should never be found in the kitchen cutting up vegetables, raw meat or bread. Its, sole object in life is to carve meat brought to the table. Bear in mind that heat destrcjrs its temper, and when the temper of the knife goes the temper of the carver is likly to go, tool (Experintontal Farms. Note) Proper care should be exercised at all times to protect the large invest- ment in farm machinery from rapid deterioration. Heat, moisture, wine, frost and direct sunlight are the most destructive elements encoun- tered by farm equipment. Storage means protection against these deteriorating effects during the inactive life of the nilachines and has been found by the Dominion Experimental Station, at Swift Cur- rent, to be the greatest single factor in prolonging the life of farm ma- chinery. The most active period of deterior- ation is during the season :of ma- chine use. It is important, however, to protect machinery the year a- round from the effects of weather Generous use of paint on all wood and metal parts, wherever the ori- ginal has warn thin, and the removal to a dry shed of all slats, canvassell knifves,, pliough--thares, cultivatior teeth, etc., immediately the machine is out of use, will help prolong the useful life of ,the implement.

Pass the knife be- tween the thigh and the body until the bone is reached, then the thigh is forced back .and the joint laid op- en. Separate the entire, leg with the point of the knife. Now .that the leg is removed the next process is to remove the wing. This is accom, plished by slicing a piece of the breast, carving close to the ribs and then, when the joint is reached, bend out this limb also to expose the joint; then' sever with a knife. Hav- ing removed the legs and wings of the bird they should be cwt into two pieces by passing the knife through the joints. The breast can then ie. sliced into thin, even slices and served with the dark meat. The dressing is reached by making an in- cision between the'legs of the bird and lifting the apron just above the tail. Dressing is served by means of a tablespoon.
