The simplest, easiest, mot humane 411c1 best way to dehorn is to use calm; &lc potash when the animal is about ten days old, states H. E. Wilson, Dominion Experimental Station, La- combe, Alberta. At that age the horns may be detected as small but- tons or scars which are loosely at- tached to the skull. 'The caustic pot- ash is sold in pencil form and is pro- curable at drug stores at small cost. In addition to the caustic potash, a pair of scissors, a small jar of vase - line and a tumbler of Water. are need- ed to perform the operation. This practice of dehorning the calves might not apply to range conditions because of the time involved in the. .0peration but it does apply on the average dairy or stock farm. At the Lacombe Station where a herd of purebred Shorthorn cattle is maintained, all female calves are de - `horned with caustic potash at about 10 days of age. First of all, the hair `Surrounding the young horn or but- ton, covering an area of about two inches in diameter, is removed with scissors. To prevent the caustic from spreadin to the surrounding skin or running, i to the eyes, a ring of vase - line is ap ied to the area immediate- ly surrounding the horn button. Heavy brown paper is wrapped around the • stick of caustic to pre- vent it burning the fingers. After the skin is prepared the end of the stick of caustic is dipped into the water to moisten it. The calf is then made secure and the moist stick of caustic potash is rubbed gently over each button, allowing a few ininutes to elapse between rubbings. Rubbing is kept on until the skin ruptures and begins to bleed slightly, an indica- tion that the button has been injur- ed to 'such an extent that it will not develop further. This method of horn removal . will stop horn growth with a degree of certainty if perform- ed with care and not done too hur- riedly. A good burning job is imper- ative, if the button is to be destroy- ed so that no stubs or misshapen. Borns can develop. Calves should be kept separated from other calves while they are be- ing treated and for a few days after- wards. If the caustic is used proper- ly, a. scab will form over the button and drop off a few days later, after which the wounds should be smeared over with vaseline. , • • POMO , r47" ' she , 'SoUtheigreeisforielui , HiOilM• • 'OTT •IINIPA PW/MaiPPOItl " ' Meat ShipmentAt. All -Tittle High COminenting on reporte that British (look strikes have interfered with Canadian meat shipmientsr,` the Meat Board announced on Oetober 31.st that meat shipments are now at an all- time high and that it has ample refrigerator ocean space booked to handle all meats now available for shipment. The Meat Board is shipping so much meat overseas that plain figures fail to convey the size of its opera- tions. The 110,000,000 pounds of meat which the Board, has cleared or booked for clearance overseas since October lst would fill a freight train stretching halfway from Toronto to Hamilton, or halfway from Saint John to Fredericton, N.B., or all the way from Calgary wet to the foot- hills of the Rockies. Of this unprecedented quantity of meat exports, some 60,000,000 pounds were carried overseas by 15 steamers clearing Canadian ports in October. These October shipments include 28,000,000 popactir-ef- bacon and 28,000,000 pods of beef. * * * Farm Labor Controls • Two controls on farm labor are to be abolished probably on November 1E,th, states the Labor Gazette in its September issue. These controls are the provision that men in agriculture are not allowed to leave their em- ployment, and the power to direct men to agriculture. This action eliminates every con- trol except (a) Requirement that a permit be obtained before accepting employment; (b) Requirement to give seven days' notice on terminating em- ployment; (c) Requirement that em- ployers must list vacanies and that those seeking work shall register; and (d) Requirement of a labor exit permit. 1u �4I 0.4„ 1#0 raMi jrtPeru,* 001r ttra, sire Opre1rs.64 over •00er#: 4r.a.rdg.14 ther'eUSe Of' 31ve.,tocl 4.44sed by the rpaelter direct front tbe couiatry. . • * f. Stockyard Vading As a protection to the buyer and seller of live stock, certain require- ments are made with respect to trading in stockyards and public markets in Canada. Sales agencies and dealers must be bonded and must place funds received from the sale of live stock in a Shippers' Trust Ac- count. All records must be bona fide and open for inspection. Schedules of commissions and charges are sub- ject to official apgroval, as are also scales and weighmasters. Stockyard proprietors are required to provide adequate accommodation and services, as well as good feed at fair prices.

To 'Fulfil Purpose Objections that bave •been voiced regarding meat rationing appear to overlook the fact that Canada is committed to export large quantities of beef, pork, mutton, and lamb in fresh, frozen, cured or canned form, states the Current Review of Agri- cultural Conditions in Canada. The amount left for domestic consumption is considered sufficient to Maintain an adequate nutritional standard, but this amount must be fairly distribut- ed to obviate local scarcity and con- sequent suffering. Apparent gluts at various stockyards have been of a temporary nature and are not uncom- mon for the season. Meat rationing is here to stay until it has served its purpose of equitably distributing the smaller stocks of meat available for consumption in Canada. Desserts Dessert is something which we all anticipate at the end of a meal. It is the climax or special treat. A des- sert must complement the meal. If the main course is substantial, then choose a simple dessert, but if the main course is light, then round out the meal with a nice rich steamedl pudding. Actually the word dessert comes from the French word meaning "to clear the table." The home econom- ists of the Consumer Section, Domin- ion Department of Agriculture, offer the following suggestions to make your every day dinners the subject of favorable family comment, and they will be ,sfire to clear their plates. Chocolate Pudding 1 tablespoon gelatine 2 cups milk 6 tablespoons or 1% squares grated unsweetened chocolate 2 egg yolks 3 tpblespoons sugar % teaspoon salt 2 egg whites 2 tablespoon's sugar Few drops peppermint flavoring.

S, there goes the whistle that means jobs! But remember! Factory whisdes will keep blowing . . . smoke will keep pouring from factory chimneys, only if you and all of us do our part to keep Canada's dollar sound. And unless we keep the Canadian dollar worth a dollar, we're headed for inflation, and its inevitable result—depression! Canada's active fight against in- flation is a vital part of all our post- war planning. We Canadians must now—more than ever now --fight to keep Canada's dollar worth a full dollar! Why now espetially? Because now " civilian goods are scarce, and yet money is plentiful. This is a danger- ous condition. It means we must maintain control4 and price ceilings; support rationing and urge the support of rationing. We must buy wisely and with the greatest care: be on guard,at all times, checking, working, fighting to keep Canada's dollar sound. If we do this, we can keep prices from rising. If we don't, some day we'll be paying a dollar for 30c worth of 'goods, which means our dollar is only worth 30c. We know what happened after the last war!, We must fight against it happening again. For our own sakes —for the sake of the men who fought overseas and to whom we owe a future with a job, we must keep Canada's dollar worth a fall dollar. We must keep up an active fight against' inflation! A • inshipAsitibillIt UWU4G anuturrar tobtrautor iawaitat °thiourea.
