There is a great deal of grain being offered for sale in Ontario for feed.A grain shortage has resulted in a demand for Western Feed Oats. These oats are being sold for Feed but some farmers may re -clean them and use part of them for seed. Germination Tests of samples of such oats have shown as low percentages as from. 20% to 70%. The Sowing of Such Seed may have dis- astrous results on the crops. A survey of the grain held in Ontario.would indicate there is sufficient good seed to be obtained at home, and all farmers who must purchase seed grain this year should make careful selection upon Germination Tests. A. farmer can make a simple and accurate test at home by sprouting a number of kernels either between two sheets of dampened blot- ting paper or in a box of earth. The sample sprouted must be a fair average of the lot. WRITE ID. SMITH, Seed Branch, Department of Agriculture, Toronto, or DR. G. P. Mc1tOSTIE, Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, for information.

Instead of going eutx to find con ceaied "treasures" or queer objects in the highways and byways, the par, ticipants go out with; their cameras and bring back night photographs. The negatives are developed and printed while the contestants are at supper, dancing, or otherwise amus- ing themselves. Prizes are awarded to the takers of the most successful pictures. Is this exciting? Each participant . is given a considerable list of sub- jects from' which lie' or she may make' a choioe of one Ot mare --such es "Street Scene," "Waterfront Scene," Night ' Club," "Theater En- trance," "Traffic Policeman," "Motel Chef" and the like. A.II the "hunters" start out to- gether and must return with their trophies within a given time. Ar- rangements are made with a photo finisher to receive the negatives, do a quiche job and deliver the finished prints at the headquarters of the hunt before' midnight, The, pictures are then viewed and judged for prizes by a conninittee of non -partici- pants. W l:le some: of the subjects nee si guest aeaa.y call for flaab bulbs, stn- lnez'-sensitive fila, and an Mira -fast ' is: broadened to include subjects; that do not require all of these .aids., Per instance, a contestant owning an;, !ordinary camera may successfully - i,photograph on ordinary film a brit - Ili -wetly illuminated street or sky zcraper by malting a time exposure.... Again, such a picture as a theater • entrance may be snapped without, flash bulbs, if a fast lens and super- sensitive :fihn are used. Usually no. limit is placed on the number of ex- poseres for'any subject. Under such, rules; the field of the hunt is wide open to ail types of equipment. Picture hunting at night not only proves a test of picture -taking skill and judgment, but it offers interest.- laag adventure, and each one's ae- count of how his pictures were ob- tainted proves a big part of the+ Ore - fling's fain. 'Tried recently in New York by .a group of "socialites," the picture hunt idea has spread and is being adapted 'also to daytime, picture •. hunting. The daytime hunt alipeals especially to chino, church and other .social organizations. It winds up in the evening as the main teatnre at- a f-a dinner or supper meeting at which. the pictures are displayed and judged.
