Care Required •Feeding Calves
Farmers know that 01;11°110 it
might seem to be a simple matter to
raise a elf, it le not go easy as it
looks. They know the simple rules
uf feedixw,,, calves, and Many fariners
liave their own Methods. A common
PraCtice among aucceseful- dairymen
is to feed. the calf whole milk ger
the first three or four weeks of its
life. The gate of feeding is general-
ly a pourxd of milk for every ten
Pounds of calf. Por a 75 -pound oalf,
this would be about three-quarters of
a gallon a -day.

Don't Gibe Live Stock Ice Cold Water
For all cattle in winter, particular-
ly for dairy cows, a liberal supply of
good clean water is necessary. And an
important thing is that the ,chill
should be taken off the water be-
fore drinking. As pointed out by W.
D. ,Albright, Superintendent Dominion
Experimental Farm, Beaverlodge, Al-
berta, "starey-coated, constipated cat-
tle shivering humpbacked at icy
troughs on a bleak winter day are
an object of sympathy and a stand-
ing advertisement for shrunken .pro-
fits," If the water is -ice-cold, the an-
inials do not drink enough water.
The small amount that they do drink
checks natural functions. Results
are -constipation, ill -thrift, and some-
times indigestion.
Warm water is relaxing and sub-
stitutes in part for succulent feed.
Half a pailful of tepid water has
.brotght many a horse around. .after
an immersion or .after a cold hard
drive. Swine do poorly on ice-cold
drinks. A heater in the drinking
:tank will not only avoid- rauch ice
chopping but will contribute decided-
ly to the health and comfort of the
farmyard stock.

Return Metal Drums
There is a definite shortage of gal-
vanized iron drums and similar con-
tainers. Storekeepers, farmers and
others who may 'have empty drums
in their posseasion are asked to re-
turn them as soon as possible to the
company whose name they bear, or
to dispose of the containers to auth-
orized salvage dealers. Prices will
be paid according to size and weight
of the drums. By co-operating in this
way, the further conservation of
much needed metal will be assisted.
In winter as in summer, in districts
wihere, there is a deficiency in iodine,
•iodized salt may be supplied to the
animals to prevent goitre.

Avoid Losses When Shipping Live
• Stock
In shipping live stock, two of the
principal causes of loss are shrinkage
and overcrowding. Shrinkage, in tran-
site varies widely and often leads to
misunderstanding and loss. Hogs will
show a loss of about five per cent. on
the average after a 24 to 36 hour
journey. Lambs will shrink from 4 to
as high .as 8 per cent. in a 24 to 36
hour Journey, and well-ftnishei,1 grain -
fed cattle a shrinkage of from 3 to
6" per cent.
Overcrowding cars may lead to sev-
ere losses through bruising and
trampling.. Standard stock cars, 36
feet long and 8 feet wide, will accom-
modate approximately the following
numbers of the --various classes of live
stock: 22 fat cattle at 1,200 pounds
each, 75 eWes. at 150 pounds' each, 105
lambs from 75 to 85- pounds each and

WEALL INHERIT in common the security
our fathers fashioned in the days when simply being
together -was the sole protection of their loved ones.
Protection of the people by the peOple has taken a
"lite4t step forward since the time of the primitive
stockade, when shoulders actually touched in a -
circle of security.
OUR PIONEERS left the crowded older lands and
sought our wide, free spaces because they valued
opportunity, liberty and independence above all
14,1nan treasures.
They taught -us the virtues of. frugality and thrift.
And through thrift we have built an invisible
stockade of protection fitted to present needs.
The great, co-operative circle .of life insurance
encompasses -and safeguards the lives and futures
of millions of Canadians and their families.
THE LIFE INSURANCE business is a democracy in itself,
translating the democratic ideal into plain and
practical terms.
Life insurance hag grown to this high Place in
modern living because it has well served man's
most common peed and provides an answer to man's
common yearning for protection and peace of mind.

Mooney Wins the Deputy Reeveship
Monday was wet and disagreeable,
and a light vote in the manic/Pal elec-
tion was expected, but as it -turned
out it was the largest vote for some
years. This was due M considerable
measure no doubt, to, the fact that for
the first time since 1937 there was a
contest for any of the "higher" offi-
ces. At that, less than 50 per cent.
of the eligible voters took the trou-
ble to cast their ballots. D. D. Mooney
won the deputy-reveship handily, de-
feating W. C. Attridge 668 to 350. Of
the seven candidates on the ballot
for councillor, David Sproul polled
the lowest vote and so drops out.
Councilors Ryan and Sutherland did
not seek re-election and with Coun-
cillor Mooney stepping up four new
members found places at the board:
'G. G. MacEwan, R. G. Sanderson,

Winter Months, Best Time To Clean
Seed
Often the farmer seed -grower de-
fers his over -winter seed cleaning un-
til late in thespringbecause of ua-
certainty as to whether his seed is
going to find a market.' The usual
result is that he -is often too busy inr
the spring to do a thorough job. On
the other land, the grower who has
a rtiouse-proof room can have his seed
cleaned, bagged and , weighed ready
for inspection later on at his leisure
during the winter months. If the
seed is not sold in the spring, it will
keep. Grain seed is in short supply
.in Eastern Canada at present and so
it is advisable to conserve all avail-
able seed.
• For the ordipary farmer, although
there are well-equipped seed cleaning
points all over •Catiada, these facili-
ties may be beyond his reach and he
has to clean and grade his seed on
the farm. While a large power unit
is capable of doing a better job of
seed cleaning than the small. fanning
mill, yet satisfactory results can be
obtained by the farm fanning mill.
The labour of handling and cleaning
seed on. the farm may be considerab-
ly reduced where the layout permits
the elevation of the seed from the
cleaner to an overhead bin. From
-this bin the. seed can be spouted back
for the necessary second and third
cleaning to make a satisfactory job.
' An important feature of any seed
cleaning machine, whether or not it
is large or small; is the combination
of sieves used. The- top scalping
sieve .should be barely large enough
to let the 'grain through, the larger
material being separated off. The size
and shape of the seed being cleaned
naturally determines the size of grad-
ing screens to be used. In some sea-
sons and for some varieties, sieves of
different sizes may be required. In-
formation as to where the material
for making -sieves may be purchased
may be obtained by applying to the
nearest Dominion Experimental -Sta-
tion, Agricultural College, or Agricul-
tural Representative.
