News and Information For the Busy Farmer (Furnished (Furnished by the Ontario Depart- rnent of Agriculture) The Weed Menace A. R. G. Smith, Western Ontario Weed Control Supervisor, and Chas. Galbraith, of O.A.C., have been tour- ing the western part of the province, holding meetings in, each county and issuing instructions preparatory to l the annual campaign against the weer, anenace. Despite strenuous efforts exerted last summer, they point out,. the sow thistle is not under control. It continued to spread during the growing season of 1930, and is now in every township in Ontario. Mr. 'Smith declared it would be necessary to tighten up the administration of the Weed Act to keep the sow thistle front widening itsarea and he urged more stringent enforcement of regu- lations pertaining to all noxious weeds. Efforts to have the sides of roads levelled will be made to permit mowers to have easier access to the weeds. Weed cutting at the side of the road before the seeds ripen is having good effects. A motto for inspectors was adopted. They should make use of "personality, persistence, persuasion and publicity." Rations for Poultry The Poultry Department, O. A.

Bulletin 362, issued by the Ontario Agricultural College, con- tains the results of these studies ov- er a period of three years. The method of carrying out the experiment is described in full detail in the bulletin, and a list of eight. conclusions is given at the end. The general plan of the experiment was to study the influence of such ani- mal proteins as milk, fish scrap, beef scrap, and tankage as they might af- fect hatchability and egg production. Milk in combination with - beef scrap or fish scrap together with cod liver oil, appears to be the most sat- isfactory feed used in these trials eehere hatching power of eggs,num- ber, of eggs produced, and pounds of feed required to produce one dozen eggs are considered. The bulletin ;nay be obtained by writing to the Publications . Branch, Department of Agriculture, Parlia- ment Buildings, Toronto. There's Money in Eggs With eggs selling at 17 cents a dozen, one can still snake money if he operates his poultry flock on a business basis, was the statement made recently by a leading Ontario poultryman. Peed costs are lower and the prospects of lowered produc- tion through flock depletion is induc- ing many farriers and poultrymen to ntake sure of having a good flock of laying pttllcts this fall by buying ap- proved chicks in lots of from 300 to 1700 or more. quality. Soy Beans More Popular Soy beans are coining more and more into use as an annual hay crop. For this purpose soy beans should be sown early in May at the rate.; of one and one-half to two bushels to the acre, and the crop cut when the pods are about half-grown. The seed may be sown with a grain drill in the same way as field peas. Any soil which grows corn well will produce a good crop of soy beans. They pro- duce' a large yield of palatable hay which is very rich in protein. 'it' «c'.rr Quality Counts Dr. G. F. Warren of Cornell Uni- versity has long been recognized as one of the leading agricultural econ- omists of the world. In an address delivered recently, he brought out the interesting point that when food is relatively cheap, producers become mare insistent on quality. Dr. Warren does not expect a re- turn to the high commodity- level of recent years. He suggests that we niay expect some slight improvement in the near future, but that all com- modity prices including farm pro- ducts will be relatively low for sev- eral years. To meet the situation, he makes the following suggestions to farmers: ”eeee ., . ... 1. Find ways of producing farm products with less hours of .labor. The chief ways of doing this are by obtaining more milk per cow; higher crop yields per acre, and by using labor more efficiently. 2. Ways of reducing the cost of distrbution must be found. 3. Improve quality to meet the demands of workers who have .a high buying power, _,, .,,,. Reducing Crop Costs The ever present problem with the farmer is how to reduce crop costs. This can be clone in two bovious ways: °`first, producing more at the same costs; and second, producing the same at :a lower cost. Perhaps the most important me- thod of reducing the cost of produc- ing crops is to increase the yield. Most of the items incurred in the cost of producing crops are the same whether the crop is large or small, so that every effort should be made to produce large yields by the adop- tion of all better fanning practices. Another method of reducing the cost of production is the use of larg- ermachinery and mare labor saving equipment. Considerable improve- ment has been made in recent years in the introduction of larger and bet- ter machinery, making possible the elimination of considerable manual labor. Where the farm is large en- ough to warrant the purchase of such machinery, this method constitutes an effective means of reducing costs. The substitution of more profitable for less profitable crops is another advantage which may be derived from the cost of production studies.

Enthusiasts, even when we may fair- ly call thein cranks, are in most cases sincere. Because of their sincerity and their enthusiasm, they are con- vincing, and this accounts, no doubt, for the extensive following which many of them have, The enthusiasts on the subject of some particular food or diet are gen- erally persons who are sure that some one food or combination of foods will benefit the human race. They overlook the fact that what may be of help to one individual may not be good for all. The experience on which they base their conclusions is so limited that their contentions do not stand when generally applied. The body requires a number of substances which must be secured in the food we eat if the body is to be kept in a state of health. When we come to consider what we should eat in order to secure a sufficient quantity of all the sub- stances which we require, we think of all the foods used, not merely this. one or that one. Much of what is written or said concerning the value of one particu- lar food is based upon the idea that we are to use or dep.end upon one or at the most, a very few articles of diet, This is wrong. The diet of the normal, healthy adult should include the use of a wide variety of foods. Fortunately for us, arid thanks to science which has given us rapid transportation anddiscovered safe and satisfactory methods for the pre- servation of foods, we are able to have a wide variety of foods the year round, Not many years ago, scurvywas prevalent during the winter months. We do not suffer from this disease nowadays, because we can have fresh or canned green vegetables and fresh or dried fruits at any season of the> year. The increased use of milk and of raailk products, of green leafy vege- tables and fruits, and of cuts of neat which'' were previously not eaten, such as liver, constitutes a move in the right direction. ,The normal, healthy adult would be well advised not to follow the food faddist. Because one man does well on some unusual diet, thisdoes not mean that it is suitable for another, Because some roughage in the diet is required, it does not follow that a larger amount is desirable; indeed, it may be harmful. The normal, healthy adult should eat a wide variety of foods. Milk and milk products, fruit and green leafy vegetables should form a regular part of the diet., The amount of food to be used depends upon age and occu- patioa, and can be regulated by wat- ching any variation in the weight,. Questions concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College St., Toronto, will be answered personally by letter. Cull Them Out As soon as the spring spurt in egg production commences to lessen there are certain hens in every flock that should be culled out and market- ed. The sooner they are gotten rid of, the bigger will be the flock pro- fits. Labor is reduced, feed costs are lowered and the profitable birds are given more room in the laying house and on the range. Poultry also should sell for more money per pound in the early part of the summer than later, so there is a material gain in dispos- ing of the non-productive birds. One sit of the simplest ways to call the flocit is to go over the birds when they roost at night. Pick out those with shrivelled, rough combs, and shrunk- en, hard abdomens. A bird with a large amount of hard fat around the abdomen is not in laying condition. Weighing Hay Stacks Actual weighing is the only accur- ate way of determining the amount of hay in a stack, but there are a number of ways of estimating it. The various methods employed seek as ac- curately as possible to arrive at the number of cubic feet itt the stack, then to divide this figure by the num- ber of cubic feet per ton. First find the length of the stack, then its width, for the third dimension, mea- sure the distance over the stack from the ground on one side to the ground on. the other side by throwing a rope over the stack. With these three `mea- surements multiplied together the ap- proximate number of cubic feet in the stack will be found by dividing by one third or one-quarter. If the stack is so built that it slants toward the top from close to the bottom of the stack, one-fourth of the product is taken; if the stack goes up perpen- dicular or straight for about half its.' height and then slopes toward the top, one-third of the product is taken. Maybe there is too much crime,. but how much would be just right. millelllmIISI11eI11eIII1iIIIDlllelllelll omnilleilllol111F6111elllelllelllJslllelllolllelllellinni111e11i_ SPECIAL CASH PRICES in u on For Saturday, May Home -cured Breakfast bacon by piece, lb. 1Sc Sliced, 1'b. 20c Cured Rolls, by whole or half roll, lb. 17c Back.
