Free Nitro Culture 'i'he, departrnent of bacteriology at 'Ottawa is again supplying free nitro culture far various legumes. One bot- ele is given free to each farmer. Cul- tures are supplied for Alfalfa, sweet ,clover; red clover, alsike clover, peas and beans, One bottle is sufficient for one bushel. Where a farmer is sowing these legume crops, it is very advisable that he use these nitro cul- -tures, especially if the field has not had this crop on it before, The seed is treated very easily and in a very .Short time. Extra cultune can be se - 'cured from the O. A. C. at Gueplh 'through your local agricultural office for 50c per bottle. If you have never used it before .send for a bottle this year. Free Trees for Farmers The Ontario Department of For- estry is again distributing free trees to farmers of the province as follows: First -up to 8,500 white pine, red pine, jack pine, scotch pine, larch, white spruce,white cedar, carolina popular, white willow, walnut, butter- nut,: elm, white ash, soft maple, hard maple, or redoak, may be obtained free of charge for reforestation eith- er in a present bush or for a new plantation on waste or poor land, Second -up to 500 white spruce, Norway spruce or white cedar for 'windbreak planting. The only expense to the farmer is Weekly Crop Report • Some districts in Ontario have re - received benefits from the recent thaws as far as the water supply goes but this does not apply to Eastern Ontario where heavy snowfalls have occurred. Dufferin reports a recent horse show with only fair prices obtaining, $150, being the top for a good draft- er. The former situation in Essex is reversed with many inquiries corning in for ;farms to rent, while formerly many were idle. Some farmers plan to plant between 50 and 100 acres in corn this year, A keen demand for seed -cleaning service is noted in.Has- tings county, In Leeds a heavy in- crease in alfalfa acreage for this year is forecasted. Rumors that canneries in Lennox and Addington would not operate this year were stopped by the factories sending out contracts to the patrons last week. As a result farm- ers are enquiring for additional help. Over 100 new cows were entered this month in the cow testing work in Peel County, making a total of nearly 900. Six carloads of seed oats were shipped last week from Renfrew county. The alarmingincrease in the num- ber of fires in Western. Ontario dur- ing the threshing season of 1930 has caused considerable discussion at a recent conference of thresherinen. ifeallth Scram ttnabt ttr J OF THE 'r ebtrat Attsuriation GRANT FLEMING, M.D Editotrby ASSOCIATE SECRETARY CANCER The cure of cancer is possible in many cases when the disease is re- cognized. early and proper treatment •secured without delay, In its early stages, cancer is a local condition, and, if it is completely re- moved or destroyed while it is still a local condition, a cure is effected and the cancer does not recur: If an early diagnosis is not made, then the can- ter`spreads to other parts 'and after it bas begun to spread, it is increas- ingly difficult to deal with success - The most practical way to have eancer or other diseases discovered early is for each person to go to his family doctor, once a year, for an •examination. Such an 'examination af- fords theopportunity for the discov- ery of disease in its early. stages, and so treatment may; be started at the time when it offers the best chancre of cure, This is one of the reasons why we advise every person to have a Health Examination once a year by 'his family physician.

They do not necessarily mean cancer, but they are sufficiently suspicious to send the persons in whom they occur to their doctor without delay. The doctor will be able, because of the knowledge and skill which he possesses, to decide whether or not cancer is present. We do not wish to alarm people, but it is necessary that everyone be informed with regard to these sus- picious conditions in order that when they are found to be due to cancer, early treatment may be secured and lives saved through prompt action. Any hump, particularly on the breast, should be investigated. ' Any abnormal discharge or bleeding from the body should be regarded with suspicion and the cause ascertained. This is of particular importance in women at the time of the menopause. Warts •or moles are harmless, but if there is a change in their size or appearance, then such growths should. be dealt with promptly, as sometimes they become cancerous. A sore which does not heal readily, particularly if on the lip, is to be re- garded with suspicion. Chronic indigestion after middle life should not be neglected. Pain does not usually occur in the early stages. It is therefore a serious mistake to think that a condition is of no importance because no pain is felt. Proper treatment is available if yott will go to your doctor, but your doc- tor cannot treat you and help you un- less you go to him. There is every chance for cure if treatment is secur- ed' in the early stages, and whether it is secured or not depends upon each one's going to his doctor in time while the cancer is still curable. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian. Medical As - WINGHA1VI ADVANCE -TIMES The consensus of opinion was that if smoking about the threshing ma- chines and barns were stopped, there would not need for much legislation regarding the ,natter, It was recom- mended that a chain or wine from the separator to the ground to carry off the static electricity would be a mea- sure of. protection, Will Aid Grape Growers Following:a conference of the Leg- islative Agricultural Committee, with Niagara and Essex grape -growers, announcement has been made by Hon. Thomas. L. Kennedy that as an aid to the grape -growing industry, his Department will take immediate steps to "go after and get" satisfactory markets for Ontario grapes in East- ern and Western Canada: It is the plan to have representatives located at stragetic points, who would main- tain close contact with the grape growers here in matters of prices, sales, shipments, etc. The growers felt that they could sell four times more grapes in Ontario than at pre- sent, by means of, newspaperand radio advertising and, general co-op- eration by the Department. Mineral for Swine Mineral mixtures for swine recom- mended by the Committee on Ra- tions for Ontario are as follows; (a) 4 bus. Charcoal, 10 lbs. Salt, 10 lbs. Bonemeal, 2 lbs. sulphur, 1 lb. Iron Sulphate. (b) 2 bus. Charcoal, 2 bus. Hardwood ashes, 10 lbs. Salt, .5 lbs. finely -ground limestone or air -slaked 'lime, 5 lbs. Bonemeal, 2 lbs. Sulphur, 1 Ib. Iron Sulphate. N. B. To pre- vent hairless pigs; dissolve 1 oz. of potassium iodide in 1 gallon of water and feed at the rate of 1 tablespoon- ful every day during period of preg- nancy. (c) 50 lbs. Bone. Flour, 30 ibs. Slaked Lime or pulverised lime- stone, 10 lbs, Salt, 5 lbs. Sulphate of Iron, 3 oz, Potassium of Iodide. Feed at the rate of 2 lbs. to every 100 lbs. meal Cleanliness is Important Cleanliness is the best safeguard •we can give thenewly-born born cal f. Un- til recently the calves have been ar- riving on the pasture where natune makes things clean. Troubles are sel- dom encountered under these 'condi- tions. But now the calves will be ar- riving inthe stable. A clean box - stall is the preferable place. It is a good precaution to disinfect the na- vel immediately as much trouble en- ters by this source. Given a good start the calf should do well on good feed—if the feed pails are kept clean. Dirty feed pails are the abomination of the average stable and the cause of more digestive disorders than all other causes combined. Where the fanner will take the trouble to wash and scald the calf pails once daily he will miss a lot of tribulation in calf rearing. How They Do It The. following observations. ;were made regarding the prize -winners in a recent milk -per -acre competition conducted by Western Ontario dairy- men: They all marketthe milk at the factory the year round; all raise and feed a large number of hogs to utilize the whey; all have fine flocks of poul- try; all four farms are heavily stock- 51 ed, but the land produces all the hay, straw and silage used; all four dairy- men grain the cows the year around and plan on silage for summer feed- ing as well as winter; all have water before the cows; ail top dress their meadows; all use alfalfa, red clover, alsike and timothy when seeding down; three out of four have pure- bred herds; two out of four use milk- ing machines and the results bear tes- timony to the fact that all are good •farmers.. Heavy Losses Recorded In his campaign to find some way in which. losses to sheep breeders 11 through the activities of dogs might pp be curtailed, the Hon. 'T, L. ICennedy, Minister of Agriculture, had unearth- ed some interesting facts regarding pi the ,Honey paid to farmers by muni- cipalities last year as a dinect result Ill of sheep -killing. With the report 75 per cent complete, it was shown that im Ontario municipalities have paid 11111 $1.10,000 to farmers who have lost L sheep. 'Simeoe county led with an ex- penditt,re of $6,902 and Kent was se- me cond with $4,485. Other counties heard from are as follows:EN Bruce, $3,408; Dufferin $4,067; Ifs Durham $2,141; , Elgin $1,745; Essex IN $4,253; Glerigary $2,169; Norfolk R1 $1,838; Northumberland $1,045; Ren- frees $2,018; Stormont $2,725 'Wel pp - land $2,892; Grey $3,127; Hastings $8,286; Larnbton $2,598; Leeds $2,079; 9 Wellington $3,518; York $4,259; Mid- I1 dlesex $4,811. Of the northern municipalities, nei- ther Lenora nor Thunder Bay had IN anything to pay last year, Cochrane paid $86,65 and Manitoulin, once a great sheep -raising centre tiniil the ftep wolves got the batter of the industry, 011 expended $95,85. neeeneeeneeeest ttasst"unnInn"rnnmt"ntt" e ▪ these hymns 'from Milman in 1821: —"Your Advent, Good Friday and Palm Sunday hymns have spoilt rare for all other attempts of the sort," the last two being the well-known: "Bound upon the accursed tree," and "Ride on, ride on in majesty," A few months later he acknowledged a fur- ther instalment of hymns saying: -- "Most sincerely, I have not seen any lines of that kind which more com- pletely correspond to my ideasof what such compositions out to be, or to the plan, the outline of which it has been my wish to fill up." Among these was most probably the hymn for the second Sunday in Lent, "0 help us Lord! each hour of need," as was certainly his hymn for the 16th Sunday after Trinity: "When our heads are bowed with woe." Heber's plans for his great hymnal' were broken into by his call to the bishopric of Calcutta in 1823, but as h.e left his widow gave the book pub- licity in 1827. There Milman's hymns were first seen as hymns, His fun- eral hymn "Brother, thou art gone before us," had previously appeared as part of his drama, "The Martyr of Antioch." Strangely, perhaps, our hymn was adopted by Unitarian'. hymnal com- pilers, and became popular in that strongly literary and scientific com- munion, even before Milman's fellow - churchmen had come to appreciate its beauty and simplicity. In Boston, U.S.A., it was in common use as ear- ly as 1830. It did not appear in the. Episcopalian Hymnal of that country until 1892. .A visit to nearly any of the churches of English-speaking Christians in the early spring -item will prove its wide -spread popularity today. Henry Hart Milman was the. youngest son of Sir Francis Milman, Bart, physician to King George III,. and was born in 1791. Educated at the famous public school of Eton and at. Oxford, he was one of the rnost renowned scholars of his age. It is said that his prize poem was, "the perfectprizepoems," of Oxford ems, " While at college he wrote a drama, FAVORITE HYMNS e 11111t1111nm.i mttt ttfttnt!,nnnm Ntimmgtmm,01 mttttmmmm4 O help us, Lord each hour of meed, Thy heavenly succour give; , Help us in thought and word and deed, Each hour on earth, we live.

O help us, Jesus, from on high, We know no help but Thee; O help us so, to live and die, As Thine in heaven to be. In' 1820 Reginald afterwards Bishop Heber whose genius gave to Christ- endom such great hymns as "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty," "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," "Brightest and Best of the Sons of the Morning," was enthusiastically 'engaged in securing hymns of great literary; merit and of correct teach- ing ,for an English ,'hymnal. To such poets as Southey, Walter Scott and to Henry Hart Milman, he wrote ask- ing for assistance, To Milman, then in the first rank of poets with a brilliant set of con- temporaries, Heber's letter ,ran: "I know with what facility you write poetry, and all the world knows with what success you write religious poet- ry." His reference was to the great riligious drama "The Fall of Jerusal- em" Milman had recently published and to "The Martyr of Antioch" he was then completing. For the copy- right of each of these dramas, as for "Belshazzar," issued a year or two later, Milman received over $25,000, good proof of his great popualrity as aP oet. Heber acknowledged the receipt of "Fazio," which was put on the stage land won great success on both sides of the Atlantic, At twenty-five he was ordained and became Vicar of Reading, , 1 . 1"nbThere he wrote a long epic poem, and the. three dramas mentioned previously. Acclaimed as a wonder among the famous . posts of his age, his works soiling by the thousand, it may well be accounted a marvel that today his poetical fame is substantiated only by his thirteen poems. His once fam- ous epic and dramatic poems have tong ago passed into oblivion, al - thought undoubtedly of poetic merit. While at Reading, Milman publish- M� ed the first of his great historical .1� works which were to win him a more saaamesseameeee enduring fame in literature. This was the "History of the Jews," in which he critically examined the sacred Scriptures, as being simply historical records. A regular storm of criticism and controversy followed, "although Milman was careful to state and prove that as historical documents, the trustworthiness of the Biblical story could never be disproved, Later he wrote his "History of Christianity," and his "History of La- tin Christianity," both of which were eagerly..we1cozued. by scholars the world over. He .conferred a lasting benefit upon Christianity by his "Mil - man's Gibbons' Rome," a masterly edition with notes of the momentous work of the great deistical historian, An exceedingly lovable man of great controversational power and of telling ability as a preacher, he was preferred in 1835 to the rectorate of the well-known church of St. Mar- garet's, Westminster, and some four- teen years later to the deanery of St. PauI's Cathedral. In the crypt of that great church his grave is pointed out as that of one of the world's famous men. Tried in the fire he was also, for not far away is marked the one grave where he laid three precious children. It was in his time that the great Sunday and special week -day services under the Dome of St. Paul's, with rea p r hers capable of attracting the thousands that can be accommodated there, were first set a -going. No arwart was better fitted tc, begin, such g gatherings, and he found worthy :,,ttc., cessors:in the grand preachers lame Church and Cann Liddou. Milman's true monuments, however,. are his fine historical works, althorn,, to the vast majorty of Christians who. speak his language be will he best re- membered as the author fo some of their most greatly treasured' hyrnrrs.
