From that small beginning the idea View. They responded to the 'plea so readily that within three years the 'number of children being sent to the ,eountry had reached 236 Hostesses , began to invite the same children back year atter year andeoften their interest continued long after the chil- dren returned to the city. es Last eummer, aecording to F.

Shea, C.132E., Ottawa, for newly half a century as Dom:einem Chemeset, never ceased to urge upon thenermers of Canada the necessity for cutting hay early in order to con- serve its digestible nutrients, pointing out that when the plants need out the stems become fibrous with a rapid, ng i ri segeseelety and eutritive properties. The tinlinence of Dr. Steel'a advice on the is-nprovement in quality of Oanedien hay is inesithre able, says B. Leslie Emilie, chemist agron,omiet, who, as sail fertility spe- cialise, was, assistant to Dr. Shutt for many years. Timothy is deservedly the most pornear grass for bay in Cenaciss.It is both palatable an -d nutritious 'end when out early is an exceedingly valu- able fodider. Colonel W. R. Peel, D.S.O., M.A., in his book on Grassland Management, says that, Timothy hay should lee eat before the heads have emerged, and none can dispute the wisdom of the statement. ' The peicente.ge of. digestible protein is largely the measure of quality in 'hay. Protein iso in nitrogen; con- sequently, nitrogenous fertilizers, such as eulphate of ammonia., nitrate of soda and cyantamide, applied at the proper time, will defiaitely increase the Protein] content of the presses, es - Dr. Shutt's invesitegations b a v shown. ,In the Journal of the Ministry of Agriculture fee April, 1939, there ap- peared an interesting report by A.

The author refers ho experiments carried out bY Sprague and Hawkins in the United States, who found- that the protein content. of hay grasses coned he itnereaeed substantially by anthem - tions of nitrogen fe,rtilizere from 10 to '20 dare 'before harvesting.
