Just as the grain grower cleans his seed and rejects shrunken grains, weeds, and dirt, so the I ..O.P. breeder in co-operation with the R.O.P. Inspec- tor culls out the 'poorly developed and undesirable birds. A farmer does not seed' his entire farm without having had the grain tested„ for germination: The germination test in potiitry breed- ing is done by the R.O.P. poultry breeder by trapnesting pullets for their first full year's lay. In doing so he is working for the advantage of the whole poultry industry. The eggs are separately marked, the Chicks when they come, are banded by num- bered leg bands and the numbers re- corded with the number of the sire and dam. When mature, the chicks are trapnested to' see •if the dam, af- ter producing sufficient eggs to quali- fy in Record of Performance, can pro- duce the quality of chicks to 4 arry On the job of profitable production. Just as germination, rapid growth, resistance io disease, early, maturity and heavy production are important to the farmer, so fertility and 'hatch- ability, rapid feathering and develop- ment, ability to live, early maturity and heavy production are the main issues to the poultryman. It should be the aim of everyone raising poultry, when chicks have to be bought, to buy .R.O.P., and R.O.P. sired chicks so as to benefit directly by the breeding work and in this way help forbvard Canada's poultry. pro- duction program.

Doctors agree that there would be ,Fewer colds and nose infections if humidity were higher in Canadian homes. There are several simple things that will help to maintain higher humidity. Here are a few of them: Keep the pan in the hot air fur- nace, if there is one, well-filled with water. If this is not sufficient, place cans of water just hiside the regis- ters, not where they'll show, but where they will do their work effec- tively. After taking a bath, leave the• hot water standing in the tub until it is Cold. At the same time 4eave the bathroom door open so that the mois- ture can penertate into the other hooms. Potted plants make good humidi- fiers if they're kept well -watered. Their porous pots literally ooze mois- ture. A pan. of water underneath the rad- iator is a good substitute for the reg- ular humidifying pans that fit on the back of the radiator.
