' There has been an unprecedented, demand for mixed feeds which is not only taxing the capacity ot mills and processing eouipment, blit• the avail- able supply of several ingredients -- Particularly protein supplements—de less than the expected reduirements. 'Master Feeds' staff and, feed plant bane been working day and night to produce the tremendous volume of quality feeds required by. Master Feeders. ' The co-operation of all ccincerned, is necessary in making ev- ery pound of feed contribute 'to the maximum In the production of food for our war effort. How To make the Most Efficient Use Of Feed 1. Feed for' Maximum Production.— There is nothing saved by half feed - Ing ....r making it spread out by the excess feeding of scratch grain( This lowers the efficiency of the ration and results suffer in proportion. 2. Avoid Overcrowding.—In brood- ers place not more than 300 chicks per stove, and separate the sexes as soon as they can be recegnized., If the chicks are, all one sex, more space will be required at seven weeks. On the range do not crowd too - many birds in a shelter and space the shelters 250 feet apart. Move feed- ers and drinkers every few days. In the laying pen allow 3% square feet per bird for light breeds and 4 square feet for heavy breeds. 3. Cull Rigidly.—Remove non -layers to conserve feed for the.producers. Frequent culling is a profitable prac- tice, since many of the birds remov- ed have a value for meat purposes. 4. Proper Construction of Feed Hop,. pers.—To prevent billing out -on the floor or ground, a guard or lip on the hopper will help, then, too, do not 1111 mash hoppers over half full. Allow at least 32 feet of mash feed- er space per 100 birds. Mote would be better. 5. Eliminate Parasites. — Internal parasites, lice and mite infestations result in feed waste. Keep a sharp lOokout for these parasites and if present, consult your Master dealer for a reliable treatment. , 6. Guard Against Disease; — Birds that have had disease, tparticulargy cocidiosis, never handle' feed efficient- ly. Follow a•good sanitation and dis- ease control program. (See page 2 'Of Master Feeder). 7. Destroy Rats. — They consume arge quantities of mash in feed hop - Ens, waste fed in feed, rooms and pread serious poultry diseases. In one particular case, a check was ade on a farm where the rat popu- ation was below the average, and .it as found their nightly consumption STI C KY DRAWERS If the runners under a sticky draw - are rubbed with soap, candle wax m or paste floor wax; -drawers Will slide smoothly in and out.

Provide a Good Range Pasture,— A good pasture, with fresh immature grasesupplied in abundance, particu- larly in July and August, will reduce quantity of growing mash. required. Frequent mowing keeps fresh growth ooming up from the bottom. Facts About Weeds Besides being responsible for re- duced returns or increased costs, weeds frequently interfere in more in- volved ways with production pro- grams Weeds are often subject to the- diseases of related 'cultivated pnts, and, being. overlooked, serve as centres of .pollution, for. example, white rust on Wild members of the mustard family may infect those in cultiVation. Even unrelated plants Tay be alternate hosts, as when com- mon barberry and European' buck- tht.rn, formerly mucb planted, sup- 1.,orz. respectively the stem rust of wheat and cither grains and crown rust ef• oats. They are now outlaw- ed Isolated or hedge plantings of these shrubs may commonly be seen as. the centres of much heavier infec- tion of the crop in the vicinity than at a great distance. .Chokecherry is also reported to be the alternate host with peach for what has come to. be known as X -disease' of peach.. cherries and plums have been shown to over -winter insects whicl:. returning to an alternate host, serve to spread its diseases. ' Plant lice, migrating from potato to these hedge- row trees 'and back again on the return of another crop, spread virus diseases wherever they meet it and proceed in their feeding; and leaf- hoppers moving- ..fromwi1l plum. to peach are credited with doing •abOut the same for each yellow -s. Whether .herbs, shrubs or trees, such alternate hosts are weeds to be eradicated where the situation warrants. An example of somewhat different pollution is afforded -by the presence of wild carrot in areas where seed of cultivated carrot is to be pro- duced. Cross pollination. of the crop, by the weed would quickly nullify the gains of centuries of breeding and selection. Where infestation is light, eradication may be •possible, but in Canada ft is 'probably easier to find places for carrot seed production al- ready free of wild carrot than to make them So. Weed surveys of the Donilnion Division of Botany, Ottawa, have shown that between the worst infested territory in Southern On- tario and in, Nova Scotia -infestation is light where occurring at 'all. Also in British. Columbia, the home of many' seed growing ventures, the sit- uation while not everywhere clean, should not be beyond righting with onganized. .effort. Information thus obtained. is now being •put .to use establishing seed growing centres, as well 'as in locating, disease:free areas for production of foundation stocks. Sugar Rationed NeedMoreHohey Because of war rationing every pound of honey that can be produced. is urglently needed, consequently bee- keepers in Canada are being urged to work their bees and equipment to the Utmost capacity.. The main sources of honey in Can- ada are Alsike, White Dutch and Sweet Clovers. AlthOugh the major portion of the honey. crop comes from. the clovers grown under cultivation, a great amount of it is secured from those that grow under natural condi: tions along roadsides and on unculti- vated land, says C. B. Gooderham, Do- minion Apiarist. Usually the culti- vated crops are cut for hay before they finish blooming, so that the flow of ,neetar is prematurely stopped and the possible honey crop reduced. Un- der natural conditions, however, the clovers will continue to .blossom until late autumn, so the flow of nectar is continued over a longer period and the honeycrop thereby increased. This is particularly true of sweet clover. It is estimated that under suita-ble weather conditions for .nec- tar secretion, one acre of clover al- lowed to blossom normally will yield from one to 200 pooficla of honey. Just now there ip an abundance of clover of all kinds growing along' roadsides and on uncultivated' land, which, if allowed to bloom Would add many ,thousands, perhaps m4hhions of pounds to the honey crop of Canada. In order that this potential crop of food may be "secured it is hoped that trt any region where cutting the vege- tation along roadsides and on waste land, is practiced, an, effort will be made to leave standing as much of the clover as possible.

Fujitstatiettes are not yet available but one ifi 'assured that, when they are they will amaze ,the .world, There has been no tetanus and little gas gan- grene, and sepsis has been largely oontrolled by sulpha drugs. • These results have been achieved in spite of the great transport diffi- duffles under which all our,operatiene have labored. The wounded have had te be moved hundreds of miles. Some- times they have gone by motor am- bulande, sometimes by hospital train. Once we had- gained air superiority it was possible to send them by hos- pital ship.' But the most valuable means of moving them was by means of troop-carrierplarie titled to take eighteen stretcher cases -as well as air crew, doctor and nurses. More than fifteen thousand wound- ed have been evacuated .by air in this campaign, normally to Algiers or Oran, sometimes to Gibraltar, occas- ionally even to the United States or Engla.nd. Seven thousand were in this way moved in April alone. These planes •also carried medical supplies in the opposite directient; One once flew plasma to the Eighth Army in Tripoli. The most remarkable achieve- ment was to fly the whole of a small general hospital to a -body of Ameri- can troops which was isolated in --des- ert country. The job took eighty plane loads and was done in one -day. Many wounded men's lives have been saved in Tunisia bjr the blood - transfusion service, and many more by. major operations performed clos- er to the firing -line -than ever before. Our new field surgical units', staffed by young surgeons, have done mir- acles under fire in -the way of abdom- inal, chest, femur and some head cas- es.

When parachutists dropped at Bepa one of, their surgeons broke his leg just below the knee -joint in landing.
