EASTER
The age -long cycle ofgrowth and
Harvest, of winter's iseows and thea
new life, with bursting bud and tender
flower, is one of the.'mysteries that
'science has :not quite solved:' And
doubtless it is better so.
"We have but"faith; we cannot know;
For knowledge 'ie. .of things:we see;•,
And.yet 'we trest .it comes front thee,
A. beain of darkness. Let it grow,"
Itis surely by no• mere chance that
Easter conies in the Spring. Nature's
promise for the days that are to • be
is"but a type of the promise -and. hope
for which the Spirit of Easter stands.

these there conies a second brood of

S1ethod. of Control,
These are easy insects tip hill. All

should be sprayed with: from two to
three pounds arsenate of lead taste,
or half that amount of the powder
form, in forty gallons of water as
soon as the leaves have become wt II
expanded, 'Part icalai°care sbould'be
taken to spray thoroughly the inner.
parts of the bush. This will kill all
'the first brood. It a second brood
appears hellebore should be used ria -
stead of.arsenate,ot lead, in the pro-
portion of one ounce to one gallein
of water. Arsenate of lead' would
-
be .dangerous on the i'ipe- fruit. Tfic'
Insect occurs everywhere in the Pro-
vince, and everyone should prevent
his plants being weakened and ser-
iously injured by it, especially, as it
is so easy to control.

Popular Varieties of Strawberriies.
From the beginning: of eonjsnerctal
strawberry growing. about 1804,. the
Large Early Scarlet was the leading.
variety grown. in the United States.
About 1860 the Wilson replaced this
variety, because it was much firmer
'and was more' suitable for shipping
'to distant market's, and its hardiness
and good bearing qualities helped to
snake strawberry growing mere pop u-,
lar in Ontario. Prom. about 180
varieties:began to replace each other
in more rapid suecession, until at
present 25 saris constitute about 50
per cent. of 'the total commercial
'strawberry acreage. The Klondike,
:the leading Variety in the Southern
States, heads the list. constituting 2-8
per • cent: ,9f the total strawberry;
acs page. The Aroma, the favorite
variety in the South Central States,
is ' second with 13 per cent. of the
total acreage, while the Dunlap in
the Northern States' tanks third,
with 10 per cepa, 10 Ontario among
the most pojaulai' t=arieties cornmer
cially are the Glen Mary,-'Vrilliarns,
Dunlap, Gandy, Splendid, Parsons,
and Sample. Among the fall bearers
the 5tiperb and. 'Progressive are.
:preferred.
Feeding the Cow Before (salving.
The prober time to begin feeding
'a dairy cow is six or eight weeks be
fore calving, and pi�actieal dairymen
agree that this preparation has more
to do with the amount of milk .and
•butter fat which a cow produces dur-
lug the lactation period than does
the feeding during any other period.
For eows carving during the mitt
neer or early fall most dairymen like
to have a small pasture away from
tite herd_ but with an abundance of
grass,,,,ancl, in addition, they lilte to
feed a suitable' grain mixture, Coin,
silage, tvith,elover or alfalfa• bay rad
a limited grain ration of: three parte
ground oats, two parts of bran, anti
one part of` -•0l1 meal is especially
good for cows calving during 'inter'
or early spring, After calving the
cows should be brought slowly up to.
rill feed and thereby .eteadily' to a
nigher pi'odttetioit.
