The hiereaSed ,Prednetinnf Qt°
a'n.4 voultry has introduced sone new
Problems in the pouttrY
These Problems 'affect not only the
ImatrYonien, Init are the direct Con-
cern of all those connected in 41417
way with the poultry industry.
' 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

8. 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. The airborne surgical team show-
ed itself worthy of the parachutiats
whom it served and with;whom it

When parachutists dropped at Bepa

just below the knee -joint in landing.
He concealed the indery for ;three
weeks and performed a number of
major operations in. the meanwhile,
