these problems -will prove of direct
value to every farmer,
count The Cost
iFarm`;Profits -are smaill.' They are
limited by the selling of products and,
perhaps to a greater extent, by the
cost sof production, The selling price
may be influenced by organizations
but each 'farmer controls his product-
tion costs. Pt is much better to feed
and unilk five cowswhich each give a
profit than tett which pay costs only.
To raise crops cheaply there must be
a high yield. The cost for the farm;.
or per acre, or per cow does not tell
much. Comparison should be on a
ton, bushel or ,pound basis,
Curbing Cannibalism
Prof. W. R. Graham, head- of the
Poultry Department of O. A. C., has
a -good suggestion .for curbing the
frequent outbreaks of feather-pulditag
and cannibalism 'when pullets are first
putt in confineitient. Such an out-
break occurred at the college plant
this fall. A quantity of fresh new
blood was obtained from theslaughter.
house and given the pallets as a drink.
In fifteen inutes the appetite had so
abated- that it was safe to put 'back in
the pen the pullets that had been pre-
viously attacked. ,One gallon of
