At the Ohio station a bull whose darn had a high official re- cord and whose grand -dam had a re- cord of large production, sired daugh- ters which showed an average gain over their dams of 1,902 pounds of milk and sixty pounds of fat the first year. Their average yearly differ- ence was more than 1,100 pounds of milk. Another sire selected from one of the best herds in the state showed a decrease of 687 pounds of milk and thirty-nine pounds of fat. His sire and dam had no official records. Bitterness in cream and milk is a frequent trouble during fall and win- ter months. If milk is bitter when it is drawn, the trouble is with the cow or her feed. Very often cows give bitter milk toward the close of their lactation period. The old dry weeds of winter pasture also give rise to a bitter flavor in milk. The remedy in this case is to keep the cow from such pastures. Scalding Poultry Dressed poultry for long-distance shipments had best be dry -picked, but for near -by markets or home consump- tion scalding is perfectly proper. In fact, scalded birds sell best to home trade. The water must be as near the boil- ing point as possible, without boiling. Care must be taken in scalding, The logs should first be dry-picked,eso that it will not be necessary to immerse them in hot water, which would change their color and cause them to lose their brightness. Neither the head nor the feet should touch water. If the head is allowed to get in hot water it will present a sickly appearance. The market generally accepts fowls that are either scalded or dry -picked, with the exception of broilers; with the latter, dry -picking alone is al- lowable. Scalding also increases the tendency to decay, It is claimed thatescalded fat fowls do not cook so well as if dry -picked. arif snow is on the groued, There aro fences to repair, roam to examine for leaks, and general fixing up of the entire house.

Well, fertilizers supply nitrogen, which is the basis of protein, potash, which causes the formation of starch and other carbohydrates, and phosphoric acid, which hastens the growth of the crop. ' Therefore the fertilizer in- dustry is closely linked with the farm- er's important calling 111 producing the food of the world. • The Value of Fertilizers. Now, does it pay to fertilize wheat? This depends upon four things: (a) The productiveness of the sail; (b) The yield of wheat obtained; (c) The price of wheat; (d) The cost of fertilizer. I have already dealt with the first factor, in last week's instalment of this article. The yield of wheat is directly de- - pendent upon the supply and balance By Ruth 111. Boyle of plantfood.

She was a farmer's wife, and she was managing a home for six hard- working, healthy people. She didn't realize it, but her part in winning the labor has increased in cost; seed and war was probably as important as fertilizer have likewise increased. A that of the son who had enlisted and eareful study of the situation shows the girls who were making surgical that the advantage is still with the dressings. • 1 farmer.

Five Important. Factors. The fertilizer industry, like all other huiustries is encountering enormous difficulties arising from the present war. Its nitrogen carriers are used as a basis of explosives. Potash from Europe, as you know, is now 01117 a memory, and submarine activities , have greatly aggravated the shortage • of sulphuric acid used in the manufac- ture of acid phosphate: Nevertheless, the fertilizer industry is vigorously endeavoring to supply the Canadian farmer with as much available plant - food as can be assembled and manufac- tured, so that he may do his part in overcoming the food shortage. Let me again emphasize these points to all growers of wheat—points which are established beyond a question by careful experimentation and actual ex- Perience—that the largest crops of best quality wheat can be produced by giving careful attention to the fol- lowing five important factors: (1) Thorough drainage of the soil; (2) Thorough preparation of the seed -bed; (8) Selection of suitable varieties of wheat and good quality seed; (4) Adequate fertilization; (5) Control of insect pests and dis- eases. Attention to these five details will enable Canadian wheat -growers to do still more, efficient work in the cam- paign for increased food crops, and thereby render great service to 111111121)117 in this tremendous crisis of the world's histmy. Most economical gains on hogs are secured while the pigs are young, and for that reason it is advisable to finish hogs as early as possible, weighing 200 pounds when marketed. Gains on adults are expensive, and feeding them during too long a period loses money. Weaning time is the critical stage in the life of fall pigs.

The baby teeth 500 softer than those that come after, and therefore acids must be scrupulously avoided, particul- arly in mouth washes, as they will de- stroy these important teeth, which should be -kept in the mouth as long as they are in good condition.

If a tooth powder is used it should be well shaken up with water before malt- ing the acid test. Plain chalk with a soft brush or rag will do very well to cleanse the teeth of children both night and morning. The mouth should be well rinsed with water after each meal, and just be- fore retiring it is well for both adult and child to rinse the mouth with a strong eolution of !baking soda. This destroys the acidity that might have been generated in the mouth from foodstuffs. , The teeth and gums should not be abused. 'Sound and healthy gums are necessary to maintain the health of. the teeth. The teeth represent live parts of the body and must be guarded against abuse the same as we all appreciate the eye has to be protected, Took Him Literally. A clergyman in a remote part of the Scottish Highlands was speaking at length to his congregation of the many things round us that are shroud- ed in mystery and of which we know little, As he warrried to his theme, he became eloquent, and frequently re- peated the oft -quoted saying of Goethe;' "More light! Oh, for light!' His eurprlse may be imegined, when, after one of those utterances, the old beadle, who had been dozing since the commencement of the sermon, woke - with a start, then got up, tiptoed soft- ly into the vestry, seized two addi- tional candleseand, ascending the pul- pit stairs, placed them be/side the two already there, ami in 8 loud whieper, honed all over the church, exclaimed: "Ye mann do wi' these, for there's ram mair!"
