Green feed 3s re- lished during the summer months by cattle, hogs, and poultry (if they axe. in inclosed yards) but without doubt Iin'oves the most profitable when fed to milch cows. Soiling crops are found to assist very materially in eneintai'ning the milk flow during the hot summer months when pastures ere short and dry. Cern, oats, peas and vetches, oats, rape and sunflowers in the order i named, are all valuable for this work. Corn is one of the best crops for this purpose, and gives a large yield of succulent feed, much relished by both cattle and hogs. Planted before June 10th, it should be ready for cut- ting about August 10th -15th, and has reached a height of from five to eight feet, with an average yield of 18 tens per acre. "Longfell" has been used with some degree of success over 0 period of years. Unless pas- tures are extremely bare, one-half acre with fair crop should be sut5ci- ent for to or twelve Cotes. Oau, peas arid vetches ,nixed, oats five parts, peas four parts, velchea ora, part by weight, and sown at the rate ur three to three and one-half bushels per acre, will give large 0000 rots of excellent feed. This should he cut and fed while the oats is in the milk or soft dough stage. This will necessitate two or three eiaslin,;rs, if soiling crop is to be fed over any great length of time. Two esedings, or at the most three, ten days apart, should be sufficient, and one•c a re should supply plenty of feed for fifteen cows. (lots sown thickly also provides goal succulent feed, and should al- most equal oats, peas and vetches in yield per acre. Rape is generally used as a pasture crop, It is particularly desirable for hogs, and when used far such must be seeded in several plots with about ten days intervening between each seeding. If allowed to make good growth before stock is turned in on it, and then pastured, say, for an hour per day, plants will throw up new shoots, and continue to grow even after being partly eaten. Rape may be sown at the rate of three to six pounds per acre, in drills, or on the flat. It has been grown with fair success when seeded broadcast, but this plan is not recommended, as it is generally found necessary to hoe this crop in order to allow it to make its best growth. With successive aeed- ings and careful handling, an acre should supply sufficient feed for at least fifteen cattle. The Experimental Station at Char- lottetown, Prince Edward Island, re- ports that sunflowers were used as a soiling crop during the latter part of the season of 1921, and were eaten with apparent relish by beef steers. They were refused by hogs, and eat- en but sparingly by dairy rows. These sunflowers (Mammoth Russian), were sown on the flat in rows thirty inches apart, and gave a yield of about 20 tons per acre. A seeding of oats, or oats, peas and vetches, for early cuttings, with corn for use as a soiling crop during the later season is to be recommend- ed. A small area of rape used as pasture during late autumn will be found very valuable. MINISTER AND FARMER WHO BEAT BOB ROGERS To have defeated the arch -master of elections, the Hon. Robert Rogers, in his ancient preserves of Lisgar, is in itself a noble exploit. it should 'also confer a certain note of distinct- ion at Ottawa upon its author, Mr. J. L. Brown, the Progressive member for Lisgar, who accomplished, the feat on December 6 by over 1,000 majority. The result was peculiarly gratifying to Mr. Brown as a ,pleasant form of revenge, for in a less eneight- ened age the Zion. Robert had beaten ham in the same constituency in a provincial election in 1899. John Livingstone Brown comes of clerical stock, and was born on Feb. 7, 1867, at Belwood in Ontario, where his father, the Rev. Robert Brown, was a Congregational minister. His schooling was just completed when the early Manitoba boom was at its height and the lure of the west a- woke an answehing response in his heart. At the early age of 15 he found himself in the newborn settle- ment of Pilot Mound, where he farm- ed for nine years and endured all the, trials of those pioneer communities. But ,preaching was in his blood, and in 1891 he laid• aside the plougand turned to his books. After studying at Winnipeg Collegiate, ;McGill Uni- versity ,and .the Congregational Col - ledge m Montreal, he was ordained for the ministery of his father's faith and labored in various charges for the next ten years. Throughout his preaching career be never lost touch with the soil, and in 1903 ee decided to resume his original role of farmer.. So back he went to the 'plough and ever since has been ,operating his own comfort- able farm six miles north of Pilot Mound a community of which he is now the acknowledged Nestor. But he was never the man to pursue a single track career, in his interests in other phases of life has been keen and continuous. He has always been ready to fill a pulpit and has token a very active interest .in eduoationat 'matters, s'ervin'g for two years as president of 'the Manitoba School Trustees' Assoeiatiob, Bet in recent years his chief enthusiasm has been the agrarian movement, of which he was one of the earliest promoters. He has never spared himself in pro- paganda work on its behalf and ae he 'has from hie youth upwards been a constant reader and an earnest stud- ent of social 'and economic problems, he soon rose to prominence in the movement. $e knows from long personal ex- pedience the many handicaps and in- justices under which the western farmers Lahore , n4, while he re- mained with the Liberal party up to 1911 and fought Lisgar then as their VER MLT RHEUMATISM Since flaking uit-a-tires" The Famous Fruit Medicine P.O.

At the first convention of the Un- ited farmers of Manitoba, Mr. Brown was on the spot as •a local delegate lie was soon a member of the ex- ecutive and steadily held his seat, When it was discovered in 1919 that the political principles of Mr. R. C. ilenders, .the existing .president of the U. F. Mlf., who had been sent to labor in the Ottawa field, had suc- cumbed to the enervating atmosphere of the capital, the avenging angels were not slow to act, and the resign- ation of Mr. Benders was summarily demanded and secured. A successor of more robust temperhad'to be found and Mr, . Brown was unanimously chosen in his place. He filled the office with acceptance in 1920 and 1921, but it was decided that he should not attempt to combine it with his ,parliamentary duties, and he was not a candidate this year.' A tall, stalwart figure, of a man whose locks are deeply shot with grey, he probably comes to polotics to late in life to have any prospects of a great career, but he will be a useful member of the house. He is oto violent radical, and belongs to the right wing of the Progressive party, but he w stand fast by the new national_ lacy which he helped to frame, an no pleasant luncheons or flatteries of the rich and great will ever swerve him from his duty to his constituents.

THE AVERAGE BRITISHER HAS A HORROR OF BRAG. It is very un -English to boaas�,,and quite es un-Englieh to cont4 dict false statements. The average Eng- lish man or woman has a horror of brag, and to make false statements— well the facts are facts, and what does it matter if people say other- wise. . Yet there are times when I wish most fervently that England would tell a tittle of what she did in the Great War, or rather that she had' made it plain, while the' war years went on. Lately 1 have met a charm•. ing American woman writer, whose sympathies were ,British ,and whose wish was to set the British people in a correct light in the eyes of her part of the world. But she hardly knew a 'single fact as to what had been done in the war. Was it true that England was richer than before the war? ;Richer'! With millions of acres of land changing hands because the owners could not afford to keep them; with income tax on all tax- able income over $225 at the rate of 6 shillings in every `round (or rough - IV s811.50 in every $5) with art treas- ured like "The Blue Boy" going to the United States! She had no idea that the British contribution to the Allied Armies was over eight million nten, and that the Navy had not only kept the seas free but had earried millio nsf o men Ito the various scats of war with few losses. She had never heard that although we owe the United 'States £72,000,000, Rus- sia, France, Italy. Belguim and the Dominions and smaller countries owe Great Britain far more than double that 'amount and not a penny of interest has been paid. But our income tax will help us to pay our interest to the United States. Site has never realized, this really friend- ly admiring American that ;the Bret ish had fought. In Italy, Russia, Pei-- cia, Mespota1nia, 'East, West and Southwest ,Africa, Egypt, Palestine and various, other places besides France and Belgium. Nor hos she any idea that when! the United States had handed a tnillton even in France Ale British had already al- most a million dead and roughly, two ,million other eas'ulities.

I forgot a number of things that I might have written down for her wherewith to confront the Anti. British friends and neighbors who would ask when she got back "Well what did the British do in the war anyway?" But I did tell her that if she wanted proof of where the Brit- ish had fought she would find it in the crosses planted in cemeteries in almost every part of the world. She could find it not only in the thous- and cemeteries of France and Bel- gium, but in Gallipoli, in beautiful Italian gardens, in lonely jungle graves, in the heat and dust of East Afrioa, and in the frozen waste of Russia. Nor did I mention the great deeds of tele Navy and the women who have no sacred spot in a for- eign cemetery to think of because their dead went down under the cold grey waters without sight or sound of friends save those on their doomed ship. I forgot to mention air raids, food shortage and other' incidents of the war, partly because they were so small and trivial • com- pared to the gigantic effort of the fighting forces. But I suppose this real Ally is only one of many thou- sands who know nothing of what Great Britain did in the war. BLANK CARTRIDGE PISTOLS Well made and effective.
