The Tobacco Commission Report

Southwestern Ontario. have issued
their report whicb is, now ready for

ane known to be rich in vitamines.
Cod liver oil is now used in many
poultry flocks and its virtue is be-
lieved to be due •to its richness in
vitaihines. A pamphlet on the arti-
ficial brooding' of chicks, prepared by
the Dominion .District Poultry Pro-
moter and the Provincial Poultry
Superintendent for New Brunswick,
recommends the use of cod liver oil in
amounts of one to two per cent, of the
mash according to the degree of con-
finement. This, it is claimed, will pre-
vent or even cure advanced cases of
leg weakness.. Egg yolks, and canned
tomatoes are claimedby these auth-
ors to have a value in preventhig leg

How One Family Got Started
We have a voaderful garden, near
the edge of a small town, but until
the past two years we had never

finally gave permission to dig and
clean a dozen small bunches of young
carrots and beets. To this they added
a few late string beans in sacks and
a peck of yellow transparent apples
• from the back yard tree. A few extra
empty paper sacks were tucked Into
the wagon and they set off to sell
their products. A tourist camp at the
edge of town was quite well filled up
with travelers who were camping for
the night. (It was around 5.30 in the
afternoon.) They bought the carrots
and beets and also the apples and
wanted a few pounds of new potatoes.
The boy returned to the garden and
dug a sack of potatoes, perhaps five
pounds and filled the order. The
