All seed will be sent by mail The time between the harvesting except that for Number 4, which will and the seeding of winter crops ; accompany the fertilzers. is exceptionally short this year. Many farmers will be unable 4;o thresh their wheat before it is time to sow for another crop. Fanners who have al- ready .threshed good, pure" gram of standard varieties of winter wheat or of winter rye rnight advertise their "surplus for seed purposes to advant- age, both to themselves and to others. Every effort should be made to in.- crease the winter crop area as ,much as possible. The wheat is greatly', needed and the increased acreage. sown with winter crops will lessen the labor required for.spring seeding, and also extend the harvest over a longer period next year. Let us aim for one million acres of winter crops for 1918. Experiments have been conducted at the Ontario Agricultural College and throughout Ontario during the past year with Winter wheat, winter rye, winter emmer and hairy vetches. The autumn of 1916 was comparatively dry, and the spring and early summer of 1917 exceptionally wet. There was more rainfall in June and July of this year than in any two consecutive months in the past seventeen years. About two hundred and ninety var- ietes of winter wheat, and many se- lections and crosses have been grown under an experiment at the Ontario Agricultural College within the past 28 years. Of the named varieties 14 have been grown in each of the 22 years, and the results of these are of special values. The following gives ▪ the average for 22 years in yield of both grain and straw per acre and in Weight per measured bushel of a few of the leading varieties: Dawson's Golden Chaff 50.2 bushels, 2.9 tons, and 59.9 pounds; Imperial Amber 47.2 bushels, 3.1 tons, and 61.1 pounds; Early Genesee Giant 45.9 bushels, 3:0 tons, and 60.1.pounds; and- Egyp Tian Amber: 45.5 bushels, 3.1 tons, and 61.5 pounds. The . average results of the fourteen varieties.. are as follows: yield of grain per acre 25.6 bushels for 1917, and 44.3 bushels for the 22 year period; yield of straw per acre . 1.9 tons for 1917, and 2.9 tons for the 22 year period and weight per measured bush- el, 56.7 pounds for 1917; and 60.9 pounds for the 22 year period. Of the thirty-four vareties of win- ter wheat which have been tested for the past. five years the highest yields in bushels per acre have been produc- ed by Imperial Amber 45.8, Kharkov 45.6, Gillespie Red 45.2, McBean's Dawson 45.1, Tuscan Island 44.9, Grand Prize 44.7, and American Ban- ner 44.6. Those varieties of winter wheat which have produced the largest loa- ves of bread from equal quatities of flour in the average tests of ten years made in the Bakery Branch of the Chemical Department of the College are as follows: Yaesolaf, Banatka,Cri- nmean Red, Tuscan Island, Budapesth, Tasmania Red, Egyptian Amber, Ken- tuckey Grant, Rudy Treadwell, Bul- .garian Geneva and Turkey Red; and those which produced the smallest loaves of bread are the Early Red Clawson and the Abundance A cross made between the Dawson's Golden Chaff and the Bulgarian has furnished a new variety which in the Iast five years has surpassed both its parents in average yield per acre and is about equal to the Bulgarian in bread production. This variety was distributed over Ontario in connection 'with the co-operative experiments in the autumn of 1916 for the first time. under the name of O.A.C. No. 104 and is not yet grown in sufficient quantity in Ontario to be sold com- mercially. ' In the co-operative ex- periments throughout Ontario in the past year, in which; five leading vari- eties were tested, the O.A. C. No. 104 "proved to be the most popular with the farmers, the improved. Im- perial Amber coming second in this respect. < The Petkus variety of winter rye has made the highest record both at the College and in the co-operative experiments throughout Ontario. Winter barley has been grown at the. College in each of the past 24 years gave a yield per acre_ in 1917 of 32.2 bushels, the average for hte whole period being about fifty bushels ' per acre.

LIFE OE A BATTLESHIP We are continually reading in the newspapers that various battleships have been completed, launched ' and for how long they have been commis- sioned. There are probably few peo- ple, however, who know how long a battleship lasts. The average life of a modern battleship is about fifteen years. In the old days a battleship was on active service nearly the whole time of its commission, which was about a hundred years. The Victory was forty years old when she fought at Trafalgar, and the Royal William, which was built in 1670, was not "scrapped" until 1813. leets of war occupied his waking thoughts and disturbed his nights ever since he ascended the throne. Pronleeo- indeed were these words of Frederick's: "It seems very probable that some future Taine a century hence ' will write to show that William II. of Prussia, and the German Empire was a mysterious, belated survival of the ante -medieval Goths and Vandals- an Attila born a thousand and more years after his time." He. pointed out that althc4gh the Raised had an English Princess for his mother he was virtually all Prussian, because the Guelphs would have to go back almost to Shakespeare's time to find a strain of any blood in their veins that was not Teutonic. Similarly with the Russians, and the great- grandmother of the Kaiser was a daughter of Czar Paul. The Roman- offs have hardly any Tartar blood in them, because of the practice of the -males for ten generations °back of marrying German women. In Berlin, Harold Frederick had the feeling of a civilian left alone in an army. Even then. the country had been thoroughly militarized, although Bismarck having got what he wanted by war vitas always talking about the blessings of peace.. He wrote: "What this militarism means is that the army here in Germany will utterly swamp whatever ordinar-- pacific in- stincts there are in the 'Empire the moment a young fighting Kaiser draws his sword and cries out. 'Who will fllow me?' " One of the most horrible things about the crime of the Kaiser is that he was no longer "a young fighting Raiser," when he drew his sword upon mankind. He was an old man, a grandfather. Every lust save the blood -lust must have died out in him. It may be that he is like the man-eating tiger, indifferent to the taste of human flesh as lone: as his teeth and claws are equal to I the task of pulling down other deni- zens of the jungle, but turning in his mangy old age into a maneater. UNDERSTOOD KAISER A GENERATION AGO. Harold Frederick is an American author who ought to be far better known than he is, for when he died untimely in. 1898 he left behind him at least two or three books that cer- tainly will survive. His name is now recalled because someone in looking over an old magazine or newspaper came across a study of Emperor Wil- liam, made in 1888 when Emperor Frederick lay on his deathbed and when the Crown Prince, the present Kaiser, " was about to step into hie shoes. In -.'iew of what we know of the war lord the article is indeed a re- markable one, especially for its pro -1 phetie power. Thirty years ago Har- old Frederick, who was European correspondence for the New York Times, saw the Kaiser as all the world sees him to -day . He foresaw the extreme probability of the man drenching the world in blood, for he read aright the character of the Ho- henzollern. In these days the Kaiser must have been a fine-looking man. Frederick thus describes him: "Picture to your- self a young man in his 30th year, six feet in height, straight as an ash sap- ling, with finely formed, slender limbs, 1 narrow hips swelling chest and square broad, shoulders, with a smallish head on a long full-throated neck, held l;roudly upright and an oval face,with aquiline effect of nrofile, clear-cut, strong chin, bended nose, prominent though not high cheek -bones and:: good, .open forehead. The type sug- gests the notion of a perfectly-gred sleuth -hound, under whose smooth, delicately soft coat lie the muscles of steel, and in whom mouth -sinister legacy of nature -is the inherent taste of human blood. . Not that his face is sullen or savage in its expres- eion. Its habitual cast in repose is calm, self-possessed, somewhat medi- tative, without wrinkles either on the brow or at the ends of the mouth. The eyes too, are grave, intent, with- out being reserve. One shudders as one pats the mild, contemplative head of the bloodhound, solely because of the stories that have been told of the terrible ferocity which lurks under his sleek and gentle- exterior. In the same way you look into the face of this young heir of the Hohenzollerns and remember with wondering reser- vations the malignant tales which have been told of his inner nature by those who knew it best. Apparently all the women -at least all the Eng- lish women -who hake had to do with 'the bringing up of Prince William hold him in horror and detestation. I have had numerous proofs of this, although I have clever been able to fasten upon any specific reasons for it. Their dislike for him is based on a general conception of his character. This view is that he is utterly cold,en- tirely selfish, wantonly cruel; a young man without conscience or compassion or any softening virtues whatever. That he has great abilities they all admit but they stop there. Heart he has none upon their reckoning. And I am bound to say that if you look into his face with this preconceived notion of the young man's character you can find nlenty of signs which seem to substantiate it." This is rather tough on the blood- hound, which is not *Annular belief to the contrary notwithstanding, a savage animal, but on the contrary one of the mildest of dogs. Never- theless Frederick gives us a picture which time has shown to be a true one. Here was d young man, about to come into absolute command of an army of 2,000,000, and even then, perhaps plotting his terrible "world dominion or downfall." Here we have not the bloodhound, but the crouching tiger, waiting patiently till his prey comes within reach of his claws. Just as the tiger is not tearing his victim to pieces while he waits for the leap, so the Kaiser was not making war on Europe since the day he ascended the' throne. But he was preparing to make war and there can be little doubt that prole - d, rir..

Necessary Far: Equipment ORE and more the Ford car is looked upon by progressive farmers as neces- sary farm equipment, the same as the hlow, the hay -rake, the drill, the mower, the arrow and other labor and time -saving machinery. A farmer with a Ford car can dispense with; one or two of his horses and make the trips t' town, railway station, creamery, or to the neigh- bours in one-third the time. In fact there is no' farm machine made that will save the busy' farmer and his busy wife so much valuable time as a Ford. And it's o easy to take care of -far easier than a horse. No bed to make, or hay and oats to get, no harnessing and unharnessing, and no stables to clean. The Ford practically takcs care of itself. Ask any farmer who owns a Ford if he would ever again try to get along without it. His answer will hasten your decision to own one.
