Get the facts and SCUM y61o is 21ur, 8croSL.'rco amsa ar one � f+ p � the ca:._ HERE are three people to every telephone 11 call. If any one of them makes a mistake the call fails. It may be the operator, it may be the person calling, it may be the person called. There are over one million local calls in Ontario and Quebec every day which fail—"Line's Busy" —"No Answer"—"No one on the line now, sir"— 'Wrong Number". These uncompleted calls are a serious matter. They mean two million minutes a day wasted — congestion of traffic — constant irritation — a handicap to efficient service. Some of these cannot be avoided and some of them are due to our own errors, and many of them are due to lack of co-operation by the other two parties. °We are constantly reducing our own errors and we are constantly striving to give the best possible telephone service at lowest possible cost. As part of this effort we are now giving publicity to common faults in telephone usage in the hope that there may be mutual endeavour to secure and maintain maximum efficiency. It takes three people to complete a call — if one makes a mistake, the call fails. °It is costing more than $27,000,000 this year to extend and improve tele- phone service in Ontario and Quebec. • SIM A 1.

Perhaps we are justified in saying that we have, in connection with this passage in Matthew, the most vivid description of the last judgment to be found in the Holy Bible. We learn from it, through good works cannot merit heaven, it is a solemn fact that God Himself has made the practice of good works the condition on which He will ultimately confer the re- wards of heaven. At the general judgment men are to be rewarded, not according to their faith, or ac- cording to their feelings, or accord ing to their professions, but accord- ing to their works. Let itnot be said that this doctrine involves the idea that man, by the practice of good works, may make God his debtor. Not so. At the pres- ent salvation of a sinner depends up- on his exercising faith in Jesus Christ —not because the exercise of faith in Jesus Christ merits such a gift, but because God, in IHis sovereignty, has been pleased to appoint the exercise of faith in Jesus Christ as the condi- tion upon which the gift will be giv- en; so a man's reward in heaven de- pends upon a man's own good works on earth—not because the good works merit the reward, but because God has been pleased to make the practice of good works the condition on which the reward shall be ultimately grant- ed. Christ's very words, "Come, ye blessed of My Father," imply that the righteous are to be where Christ their Saviour is. The two are to live for ever in the glorious heaven. Do not overlook the word "inherit." Heaven is an inheritance. It belongs not to strangers and aliens, but to children. God does not give it arbi- trarily to whom, in His divine despo- tism, He likes, chooses, but only to sons and daughters—children.

With the exception of timothy and sweet clover the production in Canada and the United States is reported larger than last year. This fact, coupled with a good crop in Europe, has re- sulted in a slow export demand and lower prices•to Canadian ewers. In b''r Ontario it is estimated that about 50 per cent. of the alsike crop is not yet sold, 65 to 75 per cent. of the red clover, and 25 per cent. of the sweet clover. duct whish 18 =WA, wilia baa sa - War demand..

Unfortunately . production and mar- keting are not suffciently organized at the present time, and the industry is faced with the depression of com- petition from imported lamb which this year has already reachod a vol- ume of over 3,000,000 pounds. Medium weight carcasses weighing from 35 to 45 pounds with a arefer- ence for the lighter weights is what the market wants to -day. Such car- casses are produced from lambs weighing 80 to 100 pounds at the farm. Finish, too, is important. Grain feeding in Canada is essential if choice., well finished carcasses are to be produced in volume. Rates of Seeding. In an experiment conducted at O. A. C. for a period of eight years the results show that the greatest yield per acre with winter wheat was ob- tained from sowing one and three- quarters bushels of seed to the acre. When the amount of seed sown per acre was taken into consideration the yield at the one and three-quarters bushels rate of seeding was only slightly greater than that obtained from sowing one and one-half bushels per acre. Ontario's Tobacco Crop. iRecent despatches from Neese Zea- land tell of the development of to- bacco production on a large scale in what is known as the Nelson district, where land suitable to tobacco cul- ture has been discovered. However, with only 1,000 acres of tobacco in the entire district, the New Zealand- ers still have a long way to go be- fore a comparison can be made with Ontario's rapidly increasing acreage. In Norfolk County alone 10,000 acres of flue -cured tobacco were grown in 1929 and the total will undoubtedly exceed 12,000 acres in 1930. Essex, with a similar total of 10,000 acres this last year, and Kent with 6,760 acres, were the other principal tobac- co growing counties. The aggregate acreage of all kinds of tobacco in Ontario was slightly more than 28,- 000. 8;000. The yield exceeded 21 million pounds, which was one-third less than in 1928,°due to a falling off in barley and other dark types. This was the result of low prices obtained for these types in 1928, which had the effect of eliminating many of the smaller and less experienced growers, those growing tobacco on unsuitable soil and the intermittent grower. On the other hand the acreage of the bright flue -cured type was 50 per cent. greater in 1929, although the yield was practically unchanged. Ontario's rig Share. Ontario made a generous contribu- tion to Canada's hog supply in 1923 the sales of this province totalling 1,158,618, or 5.4 per cent. of the aggre- gate for the entire Dominion. The County of York made by far the heav- iest contribution to the total, the marketings from that district amount - God's great patrimony, given to nonei ing to 126,469 head. Perth was well except to members of God's great up with 9'7,000 -odd, and Kent, Grey, family. "Come, ye blessed of My Lambton, Middlesex, Bruce and Ox - Father, inherit the kingdom prepared ford also made notable contributions. for you." In these words Christ tells The average by counties would be us that heaven is not a world which 28.653 head. l;v acc;dent was once emptied, and therefore was fixed upon to receive the righteous and be their final home. Not so. It is a place prepared for them purposely; and, therefore, per- fectly adapted to make them happy. It is a great residence which God has built as the eternal home of His great family—a residence in the decoration of which God lavished all His wealth and employed all His attributes, pre- rogatives and powers. There is brightness in every eye happiness in every smile. The throne of God and of the Lamb is in it. His servants shall serve Him, and His name is written on their foreheads. — T h e Sermon Bible. Let us make our choice while Christ is still saying, "Yet there is room" and ever seek to serve Him through serving His needy ones. WORLD MISSIONS Joy and Satisfaction in the Work The following interesting notes have been taken from letters recent- ly received from the Rev. E. B. Sharpe, the superintendent of our Purulia Leper Home in Bihar: "It will cheer your Christmas to hear that last Sunday (Advent Sun- day) I had the joy and privilege of baptizing probably as large a number of men and women as have ever been admitted to the Christian Church at one time here—seventy-nine men and women and six children. One had been under instruction for six years and another for three, and the rest, with one exception, for over a year, and I have given them individually recently—over twenty more were re- fused. The serious manner and eag- er answers to the questions put to them in face of the whole church were a great comfort to me personal- ly. The service lasted over two hours. Just before the actual bap- tisms we all knelt and those to be baptized repeated after me: "Jost as I am, without one plea, And that Thy blood was shed for me And that Thou bids't me come to Thee 0 Jesus Christ I come." (in Bengali, of course). We then all sang the entire hymn and it was immediately followed by the bap- tisms. Well, may they "continue Christ's faithful soldiers and servants unto their life's end." Approximately 900 turkeys have been raised at the Ontario Govern- ment Turkey Farm near Forestville in Norfolk Co ty during the past year. �• +, non-' of these will come un- der the axe prior to the holiday sea - sen.

Egg -eating among chickens is largely a vice that can be discouraged with a very little care and attention. Leaving the birds in colony houses after they have started laying will start the habit; too few nests in the laying house will force the hen to lay on the floor and the fowl are quick to realize the palatability of their own product. The easiest way to end the trouble is to stay in the pen for half a day, locate the ring -leaders and re- move them. This treatment is usu- ally 100 per cent. effective. Smut in Wheat. It is estimated that the two smuts, stinking smut or bunt, and loose smut damage the winter wheat crop in On- tario more than $1,000,000 annually. Much of this loss can be prevented by smut treatments. Stinking smut of wheat the more serious disease of the two, can be controlled by using form- alin, Bluestone or copper carbonate dust. Loose smut of wheat cannot be controlled by these treatments. Where the crop has been damaged by loose smut the grower should obtain seed from a crop that is free from this fungous disease.

Each month from its birth it takes progressively more feed to produce a pound of gain. But between the third and seventh month, when the rate of gain per day and cost of grain per pound are combined, give the maxi- mum productive efficiency. After that age the combined increasing cost of gain per pound and•'lowered value due to overweight for the better grades make it unprofitable for the producer to feed hogs longer.

Beef cattle serve a splendid usage in taking up the slack and con- verting such commodities into a •pro- duct for which there is an establish- ed market and demand.

Cern to completely destroy the toughness cannot be consumed ori a large scale of the original product. by dairy cattle. The successful dairyman uses a large variety of feed, and aims to have his cows consume rather liberal quantities of good roughage. The beef steer furnishes the reliable outlet for corn. He re- duces 5 to 7 pounds of corn to one pound of increased cattle weight. This leaves a tremendous amount of ferti- lizer upon the farm and reduces the freight charges by giving the agri- culturist a highly concentrated pro- duct to send to market. In addition to the part which the beef animal plays in utilizing the crops which are produced upon the soil, we must not lose sight of the fact that there is a demand for .beef on the part of people who know what is good for them to eat and who have an appetite for foods which are high- ly pleasing to the taste. Beef has been one of man's chief fasic foods for centuries. The strongest nations in the world have been composed of beef eaters. In fact, the nations that have really produced the outstanding individuals of the race, have, without exception, been those in which beef graced the table of all classes at least once per day. There is a great deal of advertis- ing pertaining to competitive foods. While the householder of to -day may be tempted by what she reads regard- ing fish, poultry, pork, lamb, and prac- tically all other classes of high -pro- tein products, when it comes to the last analysis we find that instinct urg- CULTURE OF THE UNITED STATES On blue days we sometimes wonder what the future of our industry may hold. Possibly we go so far as to paint the picture of the agriculture of the future with no beef cattle on the horizon. I believe in so doing we take too pessimistic an attitude. To be sure, (beef cattle are being forced at the present time to meet all sorts of competition. The product which they produce is subjected to both fair and unfair remarks from people who have competitive articles to sell. Oc- casionally we hear that beef is so high in price that the poor man and the man of average circumstances can no longer afford to purchase it. Again our friends wleo are very much interested in seeing the dairy busi- ness prosper come forward with state- ments to the effect that in order for a cow to justify her existence it is necessary that she do more than pro- duce a calf. With these numerous onslaughts to be repulsed, it is rather refreshing to pause for a moment and take into aocount the function which beef cattle really serve in our pres- ent system of agriculture and to an- alyzse the situation and see why cat- tle will always fill an important plane in our scheme of soil tillage and range management. . Fundamentally, the farm is a pro- ducer of bulky products. To be sure, these products have a value; however, it is relatively small due to the fact that their bulkiness causes undue ov- erhead expense when one tries to market. Many of these articles are of relatively low grade, due to ex- posure to the weather and other re- teriorating factors. In developing seed crops nature insists that consid- erable framework in the form of plant be first builded. In the ease of cora this involves quite an elaborate or- ganization. In this plan there is a great deal of food value, providing it can be made accessible to animals reasonably soon after maturity, or better yet, when still in the develop- ing stage at about the time the ker- nels are dented.
