The third and most rigid culling
ahhuld take place when the birds are
being housed for the winter. Many
are .,put into the laying house that
:Should be marketed ' for meat, thus
saving months of useless -feeding, as
well as effecting a reduction in the
future mortality of the flock.
A considerable proportion of adult
mortality is not the result of faulty
management in the laying house, but
rather dates back in most cases to
faulty incubation, brooding and rear-
ing, or poor stock. The sooner these
faults are recognized by the produc-
•.ed, and rectified, the greater wilt be
the saving.
Choosing a Corn Hybrid
The success that a farmer has with
hybrid corn depends to a great ex-
tent upon the care with which he
chooses his hybrid or hybrids for
:seeding. In the case of corn hybrids
the importance of adaptation cannot
be emphasized too strongly, says C.
G. Mortimore, Dominion Experimental
Station, Harrow, Ont.
Individual corn hybrids vary great-
ly in yield, maturity, strength of
stalk, leafiness and other characters.
Two important considerations should
he yield and maturity in the case of
both grain and ensilage. Both of
these characteristics of any one hy-
brid vary under different soil and
climate conditions.
The tendency has been to grow
late -maturing hybrids in order toot%
lain the - slightly higher yields of
grain. However, thisis a danger-
ous practice because in unfavorable
,seasons if will result in the harvest-
ing of immature corn which provokes
storage problems and in the lower-
ing of the grade, Growers should
'choose hybrids which will ripen pro-
,perly • in their district and produce
'good yields of high quality grain. If
planting is delayed beyond_: the nor-
mal planting time, seed of an earlier
'hybrid should be used rather than
taking ,, a chance on a full -season

For -ensilage purposes It Is not nee -
misery for corn to reach full, matur-
ity. Nevertheless, ensilage of high-
est quality is only produced from kora
which has developed to the dough
stage, Maturity ghould receive Cont
siderable attention along with yield
of fodder, leafiness, strength of stalk,
ete., when selecting a hybrid for en-
silage.
Local adaptation is very important
in hybrid corn and so no general re-
commendations can be made. Grow-
ers .vho are not familiar with the
different . hybrids may obtain infor-
mation by writing or visiting their
nearest Experimental Station or Ag-
ricultural Representative.

HENSALL
(Intended for last week)
Institute Letters
Dear Gladys: Just a few lines to
thank the Hensall Women's Institute
for the lovely box I received from
them. Everything was in good shape
on arrival. It sure was a treat to
.have some good home-made candy
and, cookies; special thanks to .the
ladies who packed the box. Having a
good time over here; but still anx-
ious to get home. Expect to be here
for some time yet. Going on two
weeks' leave in a couple of days and
expect to spend meet of my time in
Scotland. 'Again I'll say thanks a
million, and good-bye for now. Sin-
i;erely, Bob ,Sangster.
Dear Gladys: Received your very
lovely letter Some time ago, Gladys.
So very glad to hear from you. It
was so nice to learn about the news
in Hensall and vicinity. Now a bit
about myself over here in England.,
I returned from Italy last June and
was still convalescing in hospital
from diphtheria,,, but shortly after
was discleirged and have been at this
camp practically ever since,` I have
a good job at headquarters here and
the conditions in general are quite
good. Now I do not expect to return
to Canada until possibly next spring
some time. I had planned on being
home for Christmas, at least, with
my folks, but I do not suppose it
will be possible. Such is We and in
the service we learn to make the best
of things when ' ' disappointments
come our way, and try and smile. I
had a leave back in July and I sure-
ly had a lovely time. I had met
some grand people prior to then and
they had invited me to spend my
leave with them, which I did. I spent
my time going for hikes over the
Downs in Sussex, and up in London
sightseeing, and going to pictures and
dancing -ell was really the grandest
leave I've had -since leaving Canada.
The English countryside is very love-
ly, but still I'll be very happy to re-
turn to• Canada once more. But dur-
ing this time I've been away I have
gained much experience in the ways
of living. Yes, I am sure Mrs. Ted
Munn will quite ably fill the vacancy
as president of your, group. You all
have done a grand job, and for a
very great cause, which has.. meant
so terribly much to all us chaps over-
seas. It was kindness and thought-
fulness on the part of folks like you
all which helped to keep our life
cheery as possible through all the
trying times. It is so good to know,
too, that now that the war is finally
over, we are still being remembered.
I see my time is practically up, so
I will close now, and thank you so
much for everything. The best of
luck ,for
happiness to•your Insti-
tute always. 'Cheerio. Homer Tin-
ney.

The ' work rooms of the Hensall
Branch of the Red Crosti Society have
resumed operations for the fall and
winter months. We are appealing to
the ladies of the area for their co-
operation and help, which is so much
needed at the present time. We do
want to compliment our workers for
their loyalty during- the days of the
war, The amount of knitting and
sewing completed by this branch is
highly 'commendable, and the sense
of responsibility that some have
shown toward this challenge has been
wonderful. The war is over and it is
natural .to expect a relaxation of ef-
fort. But, if we are to enjoy a new
world, such organizations as the Red
gross dare not slacken its efforts.
Suffering and great need is in evi-
dence wherever ,war has ' gone. In
England the disorganization of life
must be pitiable and the needs for
common comforts tremendous. Here
in Canada we have hundreds of
wounded men who need our atten-
tion and care. Red Cross hospital
lodges must be constructed and kept
going. The Red Cross visiting com-
mittee must continue its worthy work
so that no wounded man need feel
forgotten. We are, therefore, appeal-
ing to the women 'of the district to
sew and knit, so that this work of
mercy to the wounded and the home-
less and needy may continue unabat-
ed.
This branch has recently received
a new knitting quota which consists
of 30 girls' socks and sweaters and
30 babies' boottees. Also a new sew-
ing quota to'finish -up the goods we
have on hand. Something like 13
quilts need to be quilted. We hope
the ladies, will .respond to this call
and spend as much time at the work
rooms as possible on Mondays and
Fridays at 2 p.m. If anybody has a
spare sewing machine or two, Mr.
Goodwin, Would be glad to hear of it.
Please phone him or the president,
Rev. Brook. -
