C., spoke of practical ways of business keeping in close touch with agricul- tural life and be related the exper- Cm ience of the Kiwanis Club of Guelph in forming a Turnip Club. The Guelph districtis noted .for. turnips and grows 600 to 8000 carloads year- ly. Eighteen ,.boys were enrolled and each sponsored by an individual Ki- wanian. Each boy had an acre of land and was provided.with seed and. fertilizer. When thinning time came, they held a turnip -thinning contest, each boy to hoe his row until the first boy finished. While the turnips grew well, this year for. some reason ei was not a good season for turnips. When opened up they ,were soft in the centre and the buyers wouldn't take theist, As the result of the •Tur- nip Club,groups of shippers, seeds - men and and others were brought togeth- er at the College and a lot of light was . let into the matter of growing turnips. - H.

Embargo Lifted • The embargo on the importation of cattle from the Old Country has been removed so far as Scotland is con- cerned, since there have been no out- breaks of the foot-and-mouth disease in that country over a satisfactory period. Animals from Scotland may now be imported providing that they are ,embarked at a port in Scotland on a vessel sailing direct to Canada without touching at an English port. The feed accompanying the cattle for use en route must also have been grown and stored in Scotland. The, order permits consideration of appli- cations for the importation of cattle, sheep, -other ruminants, and swine from Scotland. O.A.C.

A. C. and the fertilizer industry for three years, which has illustrated the effectiveness of properly chosen fer- tilizers in increasing, yields and im- proving quality. Not only will the re- duction in number of analyses greatly simplify the Situation for buyers, but it will have a definite effect in reduc- ing registration and manufacturing costs, thus keeping the -price of fer- tilizers at a reasonable point. The objective is to still further reduce the number of fertilizer formulas at a later date. Canadian manufacturers will offer in 1932 only those analyses 1 which were catalogued'lt the confer - ence.
