necessary where these soil robbers
were %.resent. To mitigate this loses,
the land must be cleaned up. „Careful
pre -seeding cultivation will clean up
ordinary fields, while partial summer
fallow and the sowing of smother
crops like buckwheat, rape and turn-
ips are reconuniended for very bar
patches of such tenacious weeds as
twitch and 'sow thistle. A clean seed
bed, plus clean clover seed and clean
seed grain of a high standard of pur-
ity and germination, will give' a 'big
increase in yield over the other kind
at practically no more coat. Only
clean, plump, 'vigorous seed', tested
and approved by Government author=
ities •should be used. -
"The soil used in.,hot beds should
be the best for the purpose that it
is• 'possible to obtain," states an of-
. ficial of the Central . Experimental
Farm, Ottawa. The success or fail-
ure of a highly prized crop may de-
pend to a very large degree upon the
attention given to the proper pre-
paration of the soil. Soils that are
too fine. in texture will not drain pro-
perly, and, such a soil, while it may
be amply rich in plant food, may
lack only the addition of a little sand
to make it satisfactory. On the other
hand, a deficiency of humus will have
a tendency to allow the soil to com-
pact, which is likely to' prevent even
root development, and also does not
permit of a prosper d'str•ibution of
moisture through the soil.
Barley For Horses
•Braley can be economically used
.for feeding horses in grain mixtures
up to 35 per cent. It gives best re-
sults with horses at work and the in-
clusion of bran crafted of alfalfa
and timothy hay, will provent any of
the unileeira'.ileresults attributed to
this grain.
\-gun-- well boiled, with the unab-
sorbed liquid taken up with bran,
v•ith the addition of a cup or so o1'
rr+l:rsses and a pinch of common salt,
or a tablespoon of Glau'bers Salts,
ba"ley fer•n's one of the best condi-
ti+oning feeds for a horse, fed two or
Three nights weekly, or even each
night for a period.
Ontario Farm Statistics.
A considerable decrease in.the num-
ber of horses and cattle on Ontario
farms and in increase in the number
of sheep and poultry featured the
farm statistics just released in con-
nection with the 1931 census. The fol-
lowing comparison between 1931 and
1921 are given:

Woodlands Important.
Scattered woodlands through the
countryside besides • supplying. the
owner with cheap, fuel and logs help
the general living conditions .of the
owner and his neighbors. They help
to control the flood danger and act
as reservoirs that augment the water
which appears as open springs or
Hews, as underground streams that
eta tapped by the wells. They are
effective windbreaks and 'beautify the
coentryeide.

Trim the Raspberries.
Trimming of berry bushes is. a
very important task. In the early
-spring the canes of, red raspberries
'should be cut back a little at the
tops. 'Some•of the canes' 'have branch-
es and these should be cut (back to a
length of almost ten inches. The thick
canes bear the most fruit. Thin out
the canes in the hedgerow, so that
they will stand about six inches a-
part. If the, plants are left in hills,
leave about eight canes to a hill. In
the ease of black raspberries, ' the
stand of canes in the hills had best
be left undisturbed, lilt they should
be cut back more 'severely than reds.
Many twoodlc"Js have no nature
R'ou:tion because they are pastur-
c'l. The stock browse the seedlin'ge
each year as they germinate, break
and mutilate the saplings, pack the
soil' and injure the roots of the large
trees. Continued pasturing means
the gradual depreciation and the ev-
entual- disappe'araeece of 'the .woodlot.
A new crop of seedlings will be
appearing• this' spring' and will be de-,
strayed, as in former year, if••a fence
does not keep the stock out.
The fence May be. fastened to the
trees by first nailing' a .wooden 'strip
• to 'the tree and attaching the .wire to
the strip. If shade is desired in the
pasture field, some •of the trees may
be left there.

You Are
• A Very Disobedient
Person
DO YOU protest, and say that you're not a very disotbedi-
eat person? Be patient, for a moment, and we shall see.
Look at the advertisements which you see in this news-
paper, and in other newspapers. Most of them bid you do
something -something which, if done, would be advantageous
to you, as well as 'being profitable to'the advertiser.. But do
you always obey these advertisers? You do not!. And what
is your excuse?
Take your teeth, by way of example?
Are' you doing what you can to prevent or
delay their decay and loss? If you are like
most persons, you are not. Yet you are being
urged by advertisements to use regularly a
product which, if used regularly, would keep
your mouth and teeth in a really .good health
condition;' and would enable- you to keep your
teeth sound, and keep away toothache.
It isn't the price of the product which
keeps you.from using it -it's just plain inertia
and procrastination.
Then there's an electric or other `kind of,
washer -this 'by way of example --able to be
purchased on the instalrrrent plan. The ad-
vertisements bid you buy it, and give you good
reasons why you should use this labor -salving
life -prolonging medhanism.
• Has'every gran and every woin'an known
to you • obeyed the commands of the advertise-
ments of this washer? They have not. And
their resistance cannot be. put down to disbe-
lief. The explanation is: Most of us are
(shameless procrastinators -putting off, putting
off, putting off all the time.

Women's Institutes as an Educator.
Twelve hundred Wornen's Institutes
in the Province usually give some con-
sideration during March and April, to
formulating a program for next year.
The Institute year 'ends in April, and
the educational progranl for the fol-
lowing' 12 Months is usually complet-
ed in May, or early in June, printed
copies being placed in the. hands of
the members. The general practice
'is to have an address, paper, or dem-
onstration of real practical value' to
the housewife, at each meeting. Most
branches aim... -to have something to
hear, something to see,:�or something
to do, for all concerned at these gath-
erings. The following is a good ex-
ample of one such meeting:
•
Motto -The Doors of Opportunity
are marked "Push. andpull."
Roll call -"A Canadian Product,
where found and how used."
Canadian Vegetables -Their Foal
Values. -
Canadian Vegetables- - Ways to
Serve.
Canadian Apples versus Imported
Fruit.
Discussion and Recipes.
Paper "Famous 'Canadian Won •
en."
Two, Humorous Recitations.
Community Singing.
Social half-hours 'with afternoon
tea at -the close.
The opportunity to 'hear from wo-
men of experience of methods which
have pro��en effective, and to take i'i
the discussions, have added material-
ly to the efficiency of country women
in the housing. clothing and nutri-
tion of the family. •
Where the Department of Agricul-
ture 'supplements the efforts of local
groups with literature on foods,
health, etc., arid provides instructors
for Short Courses, it will readily be
seen that the Institutes are of real
educational value to the rural women
and girls.

Selection of Fertilizers.
Dr. R. Harcourt, head of the' De-
partment of Chemistry at O. A. C.,
advises that when selecting the fert-
ilizer for any given crop the follow-
ing points should be considered:
1. The present fertility of the
soil.
2. Previous cropping.
3. Nature of the crop growth.
4. Previous manuring.
'5. Feeding characteristics of crop
to • 'be grown.
6; ICompoysition of fertilizers.
7. Sore of ingredients of fer-
tilizer.
8. Method and rate of applica-
tion.
9. State of tilth of- soil.
•'Nati • sly some of.these points
are ,interrelated, but all (must.: be
considered 'if" fertilizers are to be
used. 'Furthermore, it must be clear-
lyunderstood that fertilizers should
be thought of as a supplement to
farmyard manure, crop residues
and 'good culti'vtation.-
Ascot Gold Cup and Sword
Of Fame Sold For Metal
The high premium on gold in Bri-
tain continues to bring an astonish-
ing mass of the precious metal in ev-
ery shape- and form to the bullion
dealers.
Famous trophies, historic heirlooms
and hoards of coins from the most
unexpected sources are pourirlg in
amazingly as offers to the melting
pot.
The secret sale of an Ascot Gold
Cup has provided a piquant mystery
in racing circles.
Who sold it? Only one Ieading
member of the Goldsmiths & Silver-
smiths Co., in Regent St., knows the
identity of the customer' who came in
with the cup in a Ibros n paper par-
cel,
a.l -
c rel, and asked to be shown to a pri •
vate room.
And '°the lips of'this official are
sealed. That is .a condition of the
contract.
"I do not myself know the exact
y' ear in which this particular cup was
won," said a member of the firm to
r. "The a :•r cite h date is beingkept
p p
a close secret, even from our tr'ttste'l
employees.
The cup, before It is taken to the
melting pot,' will 'be scarred with a
file. At present it.'bears on its plinth
the word "Ascot" and a date. The
file, wielded by the only official in
the secret, will remove the date be-
fore the mel:ters get to work.

each other and wild beast which were
kept in enormous numbers in the un-

seen. Often 'Christian martyrs were
used to furnish the thrill; 10,000 glad-
iators were in constant readiness. The
night we arrivedTin Rome, had din-

and went to see the Colosseum by

trip through France and part of the
war zone. Mr. 'Cynical met us at the
hotel and had dinner with us, and
at 10.30 we 'started outfor the Col-
onial Exhibition. The display of the
colored lighting and and water falls,
fountains,' etc., were gorgeous. I be-
lieve the Chicago World's Fair will
have a great deal of similar lighting
and also modernistic 'buildings, etc.
We had more fun getting our. French
into action, but could make ourselves
understood sufficiently to receive in-
formation. ' What one forgot the
other thought of. We took the little
Chemin-de-fer around the grounds and
forgot to get off on purpose so we
could get a second •'view of the
grounds and Temple of Angkor. men-

Royal Road to Romance. This was
a gorgeous Chinese Temple with won-
derful lighting effects with shadows,

and early', had a continental break-
fast, coffee and hard rolls, which 'we
monogra,med and vowed we would
t
never forge -,bard as adamant. That
morning we (visited Notre Dame Cath-
edral, most famous church in France,
noted. for its rose windows. We pass-
ed by a funeral in one of the little
chapels. The Saint Chapelle, where
Louis II worshipped, has a most beau-
tiful poem in colored glass windows,
which no one could describe. They
are considered so valuable that dur-
ing the war they were all lifted out,
packed and put into safekeeping.

There is a peculiar charm about these

"'Browning; I Browning," and point to

to them I don't know. We also visited
the Lido. and many took their bathing
suits. Almost like a little trip the
ferry used to '.make to the Toronto

standing in line for our tickets that
one of the 'boys. in our party had all
his travellers' cheques stolen. Only
one stranger in the group was accus-

rather, spoiled the afternoon and etc

THE COST OF WAR
A German mathematician has made
ealculatiohs showing that, daring the
Great War, no less than 11,000,000
men were killed; 19,,000,000 men were
mutilated; and the total cost of the
war reached the colossal total of
$0CI,000,00-0,000. With this amount,
it woald have been possible to present
every . family in 1.he United. States,
Canada, Australia, Britain, France,
Belgium, Germany and Russia with
.a $2,500 house in a five -acre plot with
$1,250 worth of furniture; and, in ad••
dition, a hospital, university and

Kellogg's ALL -BRAN Has•
"Bulk" and Vitamin B;
Also Healthful Iron
By using:, Kellogg's AIL-BRANc-'
millions of People have - overcoinB
common constipation and the head-
aches, loss of appetite and energy
that so frequently result.
New laboratory tests show ALL -
BRAN supplies two things needed to
overcome temporary arid recurring
constipation: "Bulk" to exercise the
intestines: Vitamin B to help tone
the intestinal tract.
The "bulk" in ALL -BRAN is much
like that of lettuce. Within the body,
it forms ' a soft mass. Gently it
clears the intestines of wastes.
Further experiments prove ALL -
BRAN provides twice as much blood-
building iron as. an equal amount
by weight of beef liver.
Eat this delicious cereal and' avoid
pills and drugs. They cause arttifi-
cial action, and often lead to harm-
ful habits.
Try two tablespoonfuls of
Kellogg's' ALL -BRAN daily - suffi-
cient to overcome most types of con-
stipation. If your intestinal trouble
is not relieved this way; see your
doctor.
ALL -BRAN has a delicious,, nut -
sweet flavor. Enjoy as a cereal with
milk or cream, or use. in making
fluffy bran muffins, breads, omelets,
etc. Recipes on the red -and -green.
