Attractive Pack Sells Goods. Growers are reminded that in times of glutted, or over-suppllied markets, buyers become more dis- criminating, and purchase only the most attractive products. In other words, "it is the eye that sells the goods." Ohoose a suitable package for tpresentation to the consumer, pack carefully, and iu an atteactive manner.

In sections adjacent to Montreal, the crop has suffered eonsiderable damage from winter killing. The report from further east states that, while the plants have wintered- well, besides being damaged from recent un- favorable weather, this crop will be late in appearing on the market. Roosts for Young Birds. Teaching chicks to roost, at an early age tends to promote feathe: growth and helps materially in carry- ing the chicks over the critical per- iod when they are most likely to crowd and smother. It is •desirable to get the chicks to roost just as soon as they no longer need heat to keep them comfortable. One of the best ways of getting chicks to roost is th ;build a sloping roost to the rear of the brooder house or to one side of the house and enclose the underneath side of the roost with a fine mesh wire so that the chicks cannot get at the droppings.. They will take to these temporary roosts in no time. Use of Higher Grade Seed More General This Year Agricultural representatives re. port, from many counties in Ontario, that there has been an, excellent de- mand for the higher grades of seed grain, and grass seeds. The number of inquiries, regarding treatment of grain for smut, has shown a great increase over previous years. Fan- ning mill screen depots have report- ed an increased demand for screens. Seed cleaning plants, all over the Province, have had more business. Several operators report that their leueiness has ;been- • three -times as large as they had anticipated. 'These facts would indicate that farmers, generally, are 'putting forte every effort this year to secure the highest possible yield per acre. In this way, they plan to reduce pro- duction costs and, therefore, he in a better position to cope with the pres- ent low prices of all grain crops. Farm and Home Week. Low prices for farm produce had little effect on the attendance at Farm and Home Week at O. A. C. last week. The change • from, regional gatheringa in previous years worked out well and the short courses in animal and field husbandry, home economics, and horticulture, were eminently sue, .cessful and ably carried out. As a result many farmers and -their wives secured essential informa- tion about various phases of farm life and work which they could have derived in no other manner. Outlet for Alfalfa Meal Possible In Great Britain. • George R. Paterson, Ontario Mar- keting Board, states that there is .an outlet for alfalfa meal in the United Kingdom. Ontario produc- ers, at present, have to compete chiefly with South Africa. The meal exported by our sister pornine ion is noted for its uniformly:dee'i shade of green, and its relatively low fibre content. Ontario shiPs pets, who would seek an outlet in the Old Land, will be well advised to adhere rigidly to samples on which sales are based, and use only uniformly weighted containers of attractive appearance. Ontario Strawberries for Winnipeg. The .first shipment of Ontario strawberries to the West for a num- ber of years was made by the Vine- land Grovbers' Co-operative Ltd. last week. The shipment consisted of five hundred crates of carefully selected and packed berries, pre - cooled at Grimsby, and shipped via Canadian National Express refrig• erator car. Mr. Jack Veakes, manager of the Co -Operative stated this was A trial shipment ansi preparations were under way to forward several more cars during the present season. These berries w i 11 be handled through Me. H. E. Toms, Winnipeg, representative of the Ontario Grow- ers' Markets Council. A careful check-up of the first shipments will be Made to insure against discre- pancies in pack or package of the cars to follow. Potato Market Demands Quality. • The merchandising of potatoes, as in the case of most other commodi- ties, is in a state of change and growers who propose to keep abreast of the times musiiteof necessity re- cognize that fact. 'his is the opin- ion of J. T. ;Cassin, Central Ontario Potato Growers' Ansociation. One evidence of 'this change is that many consumerie cities and towns are becoming interested in the manner in which potatoes are grown. They are beginning to ask if the potatoes have been grown from certified seed, if they have been sprayed to prevent. blight, and many other questions per- taining to production. And even, greater nurobeti are asking for a distinct variety of potato. Growers who select their seen care- fully, and who follow the best cul- tural practices will, in general, pro - due* a higher yield ef potatoes of a quality which 'meets the exacting de- mands of to -day's consumer. Weekly Crop Report. From Peel County comes the re- port that fruit growers along Lake Ontario have severe Infestation of apple scab on foliage in (spite of regular spraying. Orchards sprayed with lime sulphur are freer from ;scab than those sprayed with Ber- &Mix.

In iWellington County sheep dip- ping day was June 27th, when 15,- 000 sheep were carefully dipped in 53 community tanks and 12,000 treat- ed for internal -parasites athesame time. It has been amply demonstrat-' ed that the small margin of profit lies in scientific care. A total of 8,000 acres of Rutabagas were sown in Wellington in two weeks. In plac- es where the soil is too dry, the land roller is used extensively to compact soil and bring up moisture to seed. Fall wheat spree/Uses to be an excel- lent crop in nearly every country. A meeting to deal with parasites of farm animals brought out 225 farm- ers in IDurham county. It was the unanimous decision that steps be taken to control and eradicate, if possible, the warble fly pest. The alfalfa cilOp in Carleton County promises to give the best yield of hay this year, due to the continued dry weather. Lack of rain in June was noted throughout the province and has un- doubtedly depleted the size of most crops. Will This Summer Be Hotter? Will the heat which has been grad- ually increasing during the past flee years grow 'worse? Is the United States becoming more tropical Our ancestors thought that our climate had never changed and nev- er would. Now we know that there is ,nothing in the universe which seems to 'be eternal or even constant. Climate is no exception, although just why it should change is not thor- oughly understood. 'Mighty fetes of the universe seem to he acting in chaotic manner all around us, and it is"perhaps surprising' that,cliraate is as constant as it is. We cannot predict the kind of weather but we can say with reason- able assurance that if a certain trend continues, certain things will happen. The movement of the "pol- ar front," for instance;—that ill-de- fined line of conflict caused by wenn air from the south coming in contact with cold air from the .pole --can de- stroy civilizations and cause millions of deaths, and it can also give new civilizations and now energy. Chang- es of climate must have seriously disturbed the ancient.man, and were extensive enough to cause migrations af animals. 'Since man was largely a meat -eating animal in those days, he naturally followed, his favorite herds. For this and .perhaps other reasons, successive migrations of early man entered Europe. To get an idea of how bad wee-. thee can be, let us go back to the last glacial period. About 150,000 years ago, for an unknown reason, the sun gave the earth less heat than usual. The cold air of the arctic .cir- cle crept south until a region of per- petual ice, a mile thiek, spread over approximately all the land north of New York harbor, the Ohio and Mis- souri' Rivers. Then about 40,000 years ago the earth began to receive a little more heat, and the warm air of the tropics began to melt the great glacier. When we are entire- ly out of the Ice Age, Greenland, where the ice is now two miles thick, will be a thickly wooded country. During the '14th century the polar cold moved south a bit and northern Europe suffered inteesely. Several times during this century the Baltic was frozen and the _northern Euro- pean countries suffered from famines and floods. Several of the ;worst famines in° English history oceurrei durilig this period. On the other hand, Italy, which for several years had been too hot and sunny, got the fringe of the stormy weather and therefore had a more bracing elite - at than usual. it Was OM beginning of the Italian Renaissance. In India the condition for a part of this century was ;tragic. When the center of Asia becomes hot, the cool air from the ocean flaws in and displaces the hot air. The cool air is laden with moisture which is squeezed out as it passes over India. These heavy rains are called mon- soons and they cause the dense veg- etation. But When the center of Asia is cold 'because the earth is cooler than usual, very little cool air flaws in from the ocean. India doesn't get its usual rain and if this state of affairs lasts for a number of years, famine conditions prevail. India suffered the worst famine in her history in the 14th century. Tralf of' her population, or nearly 20,000,- 000 died during a 12 -year famine. In 1920 and 1921 conditions were reversed. The zone of storms trav- elled north because most of the earth was a little hotter than usual. The plains of southern Siberia were perched, and Russia suffered • its worst modern famine. Seven million were said to have died of starvation. There is evidence that the present hot period felisy no means confined to sthe United States. For a couple years ;Southern Russia and Siberia have been increasingly warm. As in many parts of the United State, there has been less rainfall than us- ual upon the great plains around the Black and Caspian Seas; where food for many millions of people is rais- ed. Last summer Russia advertised extensively that she intended to ex- port large quantities Of wheat. Act - gaily she exported scarcely any and the little that did reach Europe was said to he below%tandard in quality.. If the earth always spent several years in -gradually becoming warmer and then several years . in equally gradually becoming cooler, we could predict with fair accuracy whether or not this summer would be hotter. These periods of heat, however, are not always symmetrical. So if we talk about the weather for this sum- mer we must make certain assump- tions. Let us first assume that the present heat period will be symme- trical. That iS, it will decrease in the pext tfive yeats as steadily as it has increased. Also let us assume that January, 1932, was the mad - mum of the hot period. Then it fol- lows that this sumaner will be sym.- vangerous Day "At the first signs of peevishness or ill- ness in the hot, trying months of Sum- mer, I give baby Baby's Owu and in a short time be is well and snu - thanks", writes Mrs, Altoll Percher,' Glenal-; m,orid, Que.

This would mean that we would have another hot surniner, but no hotter than last sum- mer. 'Bussia•would continue to keep her wheat for home consumption, or even suffer front lack of food. But it is entirely possible that the maximum may come next year, and that next surnaner will be hotter than thie. If such an assumption proves time, the result may be dis- astrous. Russia and the great plains around the Caspian wine be parched, and ip the midst of a terrible famine it is difficult to see how the...present Russian government „eould endure. Famines have an unrilea.sant way of causing revolutions. There is a third possibility con- cerning the weather—a volcano may moved from the temperature Of sornmer, yet in reality the voIci eruptions which have regentlY t4ceni place in the Andes May make his sumkner cooler and nett winter act- ually cold. When a volcano blows cif its" top, a cubic mile or more of finely pule verized dust is blown high above he clouds. Since -there is no fag or rein up there, only gravity can pull it down. In the meantime ,a certain amount of the blue and violet rays' of 'sunlight has been dispersed by this volcanic dust which gives us ft little less sunlight than usual. It al- so gives us brilliantly red sunsets. The,!.• 'cold year of 1816 lumen' in 'America as "The Year without a Summer" was caused by several vol- canie explosions. The explosion of • Krakatoa gave us the cold winter of 1884. We don't know yet whether the Andes eruptions will give us this welcome coolness. So far no record has Mme norththat any one of the volcanoes actually blew off its top. If one did do this, then our observa- tories will see a faint reddish -brown halo around the sun this summer. Even if the 'volcanoes hold all their tops, the coming 12 months may be cool for no reason which we know anything about. Although etre know changes in the climate we know en - very little about the causes of these ough to realize that we are living among giant forces—some are ex- plosive, some in long periods of time produce intense heat or fearful cold. No other earthly force can so ;mold civilizations as a change in climate.

Talk of the towu Practical Advice. --A. well brought up yelling lady, who can handle, a car in the country but isn't so sure of herself in traffic, decided recently to take a course at one of the city auto schools to brush up on her driving. To her' utter itmasemeiit, soon after she had starthd out on her first les- son, the instructor leaned over close to her ear, and queried softly: "Did I hear you call me 'darling'?" "Sir!" cried ,the young lady hotly, forget- ting all about her driving and turn- ing to glare. "That's just to teach you, Miss," the instructor responded sternly, "no matter what anybody says to you, keep your eyes on the road.', Pay Out—Things are tightening up all along the line.
