DOCTORS DISAGIME
:e feet that 'doctors disagree is
ittin,g new, nevertheless their dif-
^enees •of opinion continue to be a
glace of amusement or surprise to
i;lnnny, And yet, why should they not
1'isagree? People outside of the med-
1oa1 profession do not invariably agree
on all subjects. Such disagreement
Weans that there is no absolute proof
in support of either argument.
Doctors disagree about some things
but they agree about many more. You
will find them unanimous with re-
gard to the value of vaccination a-
' gainst sinallpox and of immunization
against diptheria, also as to the need
for early diagnosis of tuberculosis
and cancer. They agree upon these
and many other subjects, because the
•scientifie evidence is so overwhelm-
ing that it is • accepted by. all with
• the exception of that irreducible min-
imum which is not open to convic-
tion
There are no secrets in medicine.
Every discovery is given out freely
so that it may be put to use for the
general good of mankind and not for
the personal gain of the discoverer.
In that sense, all medical knowledge
is oaten to every medical practitian.r.
The diagnosis and treatment of dis-.
ease are not based upon a: simple
formula. 'Calling upon his knowledge
of medical science. and• his own per-
sonal experience, .the physician reach-
es a conclusion that is based upon a
consideration of all the facts` as they
are revealed to .him thruu.gh his ex-
ainination of the patient and the
--study of the condition.
It is obvious that the pinion ex-
pressed by a physician is a personal
one. For the simple reason that, as
human being:, members of the medi-
cal profession vary as do other hu-
man beings in their experience and
'their skill. It is not to be wondered
at that, in the very complicated fields
, of diagnosis and treatment, they are
differences of opinion.
These differences are not so great
as they may frequently- appear to be.
It is quite possible that both opinions
are right because there is often more
than one way of successfully treating
a disease, and it is a question of per -
sonar judgment as o which! of several
is the Best method; tg Use I L any one
par taepla? ease.
No medical practitioner .claims to
be infallitblee Years of training, sup-
ply the foundation upon which each
ere +btulde, Continuous study keeps
the physician in touch with the new-
er knowledge, and experience gives
to him what he cannot obtain in any
other *ay. Medicine is a science and
'an art, but is, above all else, a ser -
'vice to mankind.

Farm Notes
Early Sweet Corn
Early sweet corn brings the best
price, hence the importance of plant-
ing as soon as possible. Successful
sowings made at intervals of ten days
in .the same field are a good way to
get early corn. Should the first plant-
ing succeed the second or third plant-
ings may be hoed out, or if the first
plantings be killed by frost the third
or fourth planting may develop un-
hampered,
Possibly one of the most satisfae-
t implements for the control df
ce-ge in a growing grain crop is
«alyat is known as the finger weeder,
This implement consists of a series
of long slender
teeth which form a
very light harrow. The finger weed-
er may be used to advantage on an-
nual weeds, shortly after germination
beth before and after the grain crop
has emerged and until the crop is
some two to four inches high.
Farm •and Home Weeks at the
Ontario Agricultural College
Information, Inspiration and Re-
creation will feature the Farm and
Rome week program at the O.A.C„
June 17th to asst, and the many thou -
:ands of farm folks who visit the
-College at that time will he sure to
find the usual hearty welcome. While
probably most of the visitors will be
able to spend only aday, those who
can should remain for two or more
days so as to absorb as much a
possible of the three "'stuns" men-
tioned above, and to do it without
hurry or fatigue.. The rooms ar:f
cernfortable, the meals good and the
post (very low.
In the daily parade of dine live'
stock, the famous Clydesdale stallion
"'Oraigie Realization" (recently arriv-
ed from Scotland), will, be an out
standing attraction since he is said
to be the best Clydesdale ever 'brought
to Canada.
There will be much of Yinterest in
the field crop experiment grounds 'and
in the vegetable and flower gardens.
The campus, with its broad stretch-
es of smooth -shaven lawn, its beauti-
ful trees and many kinds of flowering
shrubs and its many hundreds of
varieties of blooming roses, will be
an uplift in itself, especially to lovers
and sweethearts, but to common peo-
ple as. well.
An excellent program of demon-
strations is being arranged for .the
ladies, and there will be interesting
exhibits in other departments of the
College, relating to plant diseases, in-
sect and weed pests, fertilizers, farm
machinery, honey and dairy products,
etc.
Provision will be made for playing
softball and horeshoes late in the
afternoons, and there will be evening
enter•ainnrents of music and dra-
matics.
Those who have been at the Col-
lege before will enjoy it more than
ever, and those who go for the first
time "will surely get an eyeful;"
Don't Forget the Garden
Thousands of families thropghout
the country are planning now to use
the available garden land to provide
food. If people on the land would
consider the number of meals that
must be prepared during the year and
estimate the actual earning power of
a garden, more and better gardens
would be planted in order to provide
a continuous supply of summer' and
winter vegetables. A garden of one-
quarter to of e -half an acre in extent,
properly cared for, will provide en-
ough vegetables for an average fam-
ily. •
Timothy Seed Production
In the past five years Canada's
position •in regard to tihmothy seed
supply- has been changed from that
of a healy importer to that of a large
producer, with production, in 1934,
ainouhthig to almost enough for Can-
adian needs. This is particularly for•
tunate at the present time when there
are only small supplies available for
importation from other countries, ow-
ing to their greatly reduced pr•duc-
tion as a result of drought in 1924.

Brighten up with
ALL -BRAN!
You've had days when you've felt
discouraged and low. Nothing
seemed to go right. Frequently these
dreary days can be traced to com-
mon constipation, due to lack of
"bulk" in your meals.
This ailment may cause head-
aches and loss of energy. Correct it
by eating a delicious cereal.
Laboratory research shows Kel-
logg's ALL -BRAN provides "bulk" to
aid elimination. Au, -BEAN also fur.
nishes vitamin 13 and food -iron.
The "bulk" in ALL -BRAN resists
digestion better than the fiber in
fruits and vegetables. It is gentle—
and often more effective. Isn't this
natural food better than taking pat.
ent medicines --often harmful?
Two tablespoonfuls of ALL -BRAN
daily are usually 'sufficient. With
each meal, in chronic cases. If not
relieved this way, see your doctor

thousand pounds in 1929 to more than
five mi -Ilion pounds in 1934. The im-
portance of last year's Canadian crop
is not alone because of volume for
the price per pound to the grower is
about 16 cents. This is twice the
average price for the five years pre-
vious when world production was nor-

groners.' Even greater production
may be expected in Canada this year
but there is still ample room for fur-
ther expansion, as any surplus seed
produced in Canada find a ready mar-
ket abroad.
The roses called Hybrid Perpetuals
are hardier as a class than Hybrid
Teas and are safer to handle by ani -
recurs. They - have quantities' of
bloom in+ midsummer but have very
few flowers later on in the season.
The presence of the woolly aphids
on apple trees may he recognized by
white woolly patches occurring a-
round the margins of pruning cuts
and in the axils of the leaves of the
young growth. This white secretion
covers colonies of reddish -brown
aphids which cause swellings or galls
on the trees, rendering the latter
particularly subject to frost injury
later on.
Canada's Floral Regions
'As the Dominion of Canada covers
such a large territory, there may be
considerable differences of. opinion as
to the various floral regions which
may be recognized. Taking into ac-
count the topography, climate, and
present distribution of plant's, there
are, at any rate, six well-defined flor-
al areas, namely, Arctic, Northern,
Eastern, Southern, Prairie, and West-
ern, or Cordilleran. With regard to
the Arctic region, while the growing
season is short and the lower strata
of the soil remains frozen, it is a
mistake to suppose that this area is
devoid of plant life. As a matter of
fact, the colours of the Arctic flow-
ers, wash as the beautiful blue „lup-
ins, azaleas, rhododendrons, and Arc-
tic primroses, are deeper than else-
where. Like the other floral' areas,
the Arctic has plants that are not
found outside its own district, just
as in the Southern area there are
forty-seven',kinds of plants which do
not occur in any other part of Can-
ada. !Although orgy three species of
trees appear to be confined to the
prairies (the large -leaved cottonwood,
narrow leaved cottonwood and prairie
ash), the prairie region can boast of
267 pieces of characteristic plants
which do not grow outside the greart
plains, while in the eastern region
the species of plants found in that
area alone are too numerous to en-
umerate. As there is a certain a-
mount of overlapping of the floras of
any two adjacent areas, the boun-
daries of the various regions are not
to he defined too rigidly.
The Fragrant Weed
Excellent tobacco is grown in Can-
ada and it is finding increasing favor
in the British market which absorbed
eight and a half million pounds of un -
manufactured Canadian 'tobacco in
1934. In addition, practically all of
tha remaincle'r of the 1934 Canadian
crop amounting to 13,500,000 pounds
has been sold in the home and other
markets. The . to+baeco plant shows
great variation in the shape, colour,
texture, and •nunvber of leaves, and
is cultivated with more or less suc-
cess in all parts- of the world. Seuth-
ern Rhodesia, Nyasaland, British In-
dian, the United States, the great
producer, and other countries cater
to the British market. In 'Canada
there are five general types grown,
namely, flue -cured, Burley, dark, Que-
bec pipe and cigar, bait the name of
tobacco varieties is legion. The most
carious of all is the Dwarf 'type, a
native of Mexico. It is pro'babl'y the
sma1jtsit Ittobacgo plant known atnd
produces only a few tabs at the base.

Roses Old and New
Although this is the day' of the
hybrid scentless rose, the sweet-smel-;
iirg ungraftec), lrish nose has not
;peen driven ?'rom the Dominion. Its
delicate perf'pme still permeates the
.summer evening air in many a Can
adian garden and flourishes as ,of
old. The hybrid may be more beau-
tiful to the eye but it lacks that
fragrance which lends an inexpres-
sible charm to the home garden. „Hol-
land is 'a country which has develop-
ed the hybrid to a very high degree
of perfection and from there Canada
gets an imniense quantity of rose
bushes every year. In 1934 the total
importation into Canada was 285,000,
Holland alone supplying 125,000
bushes. Great Britain sent .90,000,
and the rest came from Denmark,
France, Belgium, Italy and the Unit-
ed' States. The beginner in rose
growing would do well to keep to
hybrid perpetuals for a season or
two before attempting to grow hy-
brid teas, which, though shore con-
tinuous bloomers, are less hardy and
less vigorous in their habit of growth.
Safe varieties for the beginner are
Hugh Dickson; red; Mrs. John Laing,
pink; Frau Karl Druschki, white.
Climbing roses need careful protec-
tion but are worth growing. Some
of the hardiest, mentioned in "Spring
Work in the Rose Garden" issued by
the Dominion Department of Agri-
culture, are Dorothy Perkins, pink;
Flower of Fairfield, red; Geld -finish,
cream. white; Tausendsehon, pink;

Farming on the Prairies
• Farming' in the Prairie Provinces
comprises four more or less distinct
types, first, Wheat growing;, second,
mixed farming; third, dairying (usu-
ally associated with mixed farming),
and fourth, ranching, according to in-
formation given in a recently issued
Dominion Government' publication,
"The Prairie Provinces in their Rela-
tion to the National Economy of Can-
ada." Wheat growing predominatts
in southwestern and central Alberta;
throughout the whole of Saskatche-
wan (except the northern and east-
ern fringe and the dry belt; and in
southern Manitoba. In the latter ar-
ea, however, the proportion of other
cereals and forage crops ds growing
rapidly. Mixed farming is found in
northern and western Alberta, and in
the northern and eastern parts of
both Saskatchewan and Manitoba—
in other words, over practically the
whole of the park belt.. Mixed farm-
ing is also the dominant type in the
irrigated districts. The greatest de-
velopment in dairying has occurred in
eastern Manitoba, northeastern Sas-
katchewan and northwestern Alberta.
Ranching is practically confined to
the dry area in southwestern Sas-
katchewan and southeastern Alberta,
and to a strip of land extending from
the international boundary northward
along the foothills to beyond Calgary.
Wheat was first grown in the Prairie
Provinces 120 years ago by the Sel-
kirk settlers in +:Manitoba.
Milk Patrons Try
To Improve Conditions
One of the most promising fea-
tures of the time is the disposition
of manufacturers aril distribu'tors of
farm product's to ' g^et together with
producers to work out their mutual
problems All of these movements,
of which there are many, are going
on quietly without attracting much
attention,
The Tobacco manufacturers have
gone on record several times' lately
expressing their satisfaction with the
arrangements an-ved at and the im-
proved condition of the industry.. The
Bean Growers and Dealers have im-'
proved conditions largely in a• sens-
ible business like way. The city
milk producers and distributors with
the able assistance of the Milk Con-
trol Boaed have gat together. Pota-
to growers and dealers are working
out their difficult problems. Fruit
and vegetable growers have made
notable progress with jam manufac-
turers and other processors such as
fruit and vegetable canners. Grape
growers and their principal custom-
ers, the meaner -ries, are getting closer
together and many other groups, such
as those concerned with cattle,. bogs,
cheese. butter and paulbr•y, are recog-
nizing their common interest an work-
ing towards some measure of restor-
ed prosperity 'to the ibasic industry
that supports us all.
The latest developm'en't featured by
the milk interests with the assistance
of the Milk 'Control Board and this
office -is an effort on the part of Con-
denser -les and other manufactured
milk interests to work, out improved
conditions with the large nurnbeacs of
