Attention Cattle Shippers! Hon. Thomas L. Kennedy announ- ces that the Government has ben fortunate in securing offers for• spec- es available to Ontario cattle raisers wishing to export suitable cattle to the Old Country. - Shipments have to be made in car - lots and the ideal weights for ex- port are from 1,000 pounds to 1,300 pounds. Farmers in different districts are, arranging to make up shipments to Old Country markets. • Cattle may be shipped freight collect and Laid down in Birkenhead or Glasgow at a cost of $24.50 to $25.0.0 per head. Sales costs in Great Britain are around $5 per head additional. Colonel Kennedy announces that cattle shipments to Great Britain will be met on arrival 'in 'the Old Country and everything done to promote sales to best advantage, reports being made. back to the shippers by the Agent General's office in London. Enquiries for space should beaddressed to the. Ontario Marketing Board, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. The Farmer Controls Cost "The cost of producing crops is at all times a very important considera- tion" observes E. S. Hopkins, B.S.A., Dominion Field Husbandman, "Re- turn values are more or' less controll- ed by the law of supply and demand or, by other prevailing conditions, and the producer has very little influence upon the price he will receive for his product. He has, however, some con- trol over his cost of production and the economy with which he produces his crop may mean the difference be- tween profit and loss on that crop. In times of depression and low prices this is doubly important. If profits are to be maintained when prices are low, costs must be measured accord- ingly." Weekly Crop Creport Frequent rains in most sections have helped root drops, pastures and fall wheat seeding;' Root crops are below average, with a light yield of potatoes and turnips. A good average apple crop of well -coloured, clean fruit is now being picked. Harvesting of a good grape crop is progressing satisfactorily and cutting of an av- erage corn crop is well under way. The tobacco crop is nearly harvested; but yield and quality are below that of last year. Fall ploughing is gen- erally well advanced, the soil having greatly benefitted by recent rains and indications are that an increased ac- reage will be sown to fall wheat.

Consequently, the 1933- 34 rules and regulations for R.O.P. poultry which have just been issued by the Live Stock Commissoner as- sume an import of more than ordin- 'ary significance. Although no chang- es have been made from the previous year the opportunity is once more given to the individual to learn more about poultry breeding, to build up his own flock, and to benefit through the sale, of breeding stock and hatch- ing eggs. Attention is called to the fact that application for entry for. R. 0. P. certificates, which should be addressed to the Poultry Division Live Stock Branch, Ottawa, must be received one month in advance of the date on which it is intended to com- mence the records, and that no en- tries will be accepted after Novem- ber 30. R, 0. P. certificates may be granted 'for all birds, not otherwise disqualified, which lay 200 eggs in 365 consecutive days, provided that at least half the number of eggs ' laid during; official inspection weigh two ounces or ; over, starting one month after each bird's record commences, and in no .case later than, January 1. 324'."'"""11•(.4/. AHEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA THE COMMON COLD Every fall we have to consider the common cold, not because we wish to do so, but because it forces itself up- on our attention. Nearly everyone contracts at least one cold during the year, and so' everyone is 'interested in knowing what he may do to prevent, or avoid colds. We have all noticed how colds run through a family; first, one member' has a cough 'or a sneeze, and soon all the family are coughing, sneezing and blowing their noses. So it seems that whatever the living agent or germ is that causes a cold, it is passed,along by those who have colds to those who have not. The lesson to he learned from this is that the individual who has a cold should be isolated from the other members of the family. Bed is the best place for the person who has a cold; it is best .for him and for oth- ers. By keeping him in bed, he is kept away from ` the family, and if his dishes and eating utensils are boiled, there is comparatively little chance that the disease will spread. 1t is more simple to use paper hand- kerchiefs which can be ;burned; oth- erwise, handkerchiefs must be boiled. Persons with colds who refuse to go to bed should cover their coughs and sneezes with a handkerchief, be- cause the :germ is present in the se- cretions of the nose and throat which are thrown broadcast by careless un- covered coughing, sneezing and ex- pectoration. Unless dishes and eat- ing -utensils are washed in very hot water, and common drinking -cups done away with, colds are sure to spread. The person who has a cold should never prepare or 'handle :food. that is to be used by others. We can do match to avoid colds by building up our powers of 'resist ante. There does not appear to be. any doubt that those who live in div- etheated rooms, who wear too 'heavy clothing, and 'who overeat and take but little exercise are apt to fall vic- tims to the common cord,' Good general health is our best protection.

All of n these are just as necessary in winter as they are in summer, and they can be had in winter as in ,summer. The common' cold occurs chiefly in winter, not because the air is cold. at that time, but because -we, when the air is cold, are apt to shut ourselves. in and live.bythe hot stove,not get- ting g ting out into the fresh air and not getting the exercise we need, while, at the same time, eating less of fruits and green' vegetables which are need- ed to balance our diet.
