caused chiefly by envitonmental fac-
tors. Mature body weight deli:ends to
aenreater extent on heredity.
'Egg' production has been developed,
through mann: generations, combined
With increasingly good; nearthgemellt-
Breeding played an important part in,
developinvehickens to a point where
they have he ability to lay 200 egga
per year. 1rnprovemont beyond a cer-
tain point is apt -no 'be -slow 'anti un- i
certain, however, due to the complex- :
ity oi the genetic basis for egg pre'r:
duction. The difference in„production
found between various flocks of the,
same breed are dkje, chiefly, to
ferences in managentein and general
environment or the birds. Fertility
•and hatchability are also affected laY
enhironment, although genetic factors
likewise are of importance. e These .
conclusions es to the interaction and:
relative effects of heredity end, en-
vironment are the results of carefully
centrolledr• expesiments conducted on
the: Dominion . Elperimental Farms
:where exchanges of stoat were made
between locations having consistent
differences in. the zerformence of their
-flocks. • When stook from. several lo-
cations was raised under the same
envirctement, the differences which
had been previously observed disap-
peared in the case of most of.- the
characters being observed. If they,
did not disappear, and only thea,
could the importance of strain rather.'
than the environment, be stressed. :
It appears that the following recpm.-
mendations to poultrh, 'keepers' are
sound: •
(1) Start with good stock of a suit-
able breed from a reliable hatchery
or breeder.,
.(2) Place extreme importance on
'proper care for the birds from day
old ,to maturity. If brooding or .sub-
sequent nearing is defective. stunted
• chicks are likely to result which may
either die or be delayed in maturieg.
The adult birds will hot give the sane
• performance that they would, had
they been raised properly.,
(3) The laying performance of the
average flock depends to a greet ex-
tent on feeding end -general manage -
tient.
e4) Approved niethods of feeding,
.and nianagement, combined with prac-
tical ability and experience, will give
good results•in the production: of poul-
try meat, commercial and hatching
• eggs. Using breeds of recognized mer-
it these .will be very Went forces .in
determining the success of the opera-
tor.

"'When I VI
• The IStrveep",
(By R. J. Deachnlan)
. One night my aon, who lives In
Montreal, gave me a cail. "Anything
new,?" he reMarked, "I haven't heard
from you -f6t, a -few days; how's ev
erything?"
Now I knew that he had a ticket
on the Irish Sweep and it had been
run a few days before, aci 1 'remarked
by wiy of reply, "You dianh 'get. a
horse?" -
"No," he said, "I didn't, but 1 got
my money's worth (52.50), dreaming
'about it—dreaming what. I would der
with the money, and, Dad, I did a
mighty fine job spending it,"
Years'ago I had a ticket on the
same show and ietoo did -some dream -
lug. I livedin the Towuship of, Flow -
ick .in the —County of Huron, three
miles from the little village of Gorrie.
All that country in the old, days was
one great forest, mostly hardwood—
maple and elm—mountainous trees
they were. The pioneers ---who hewed
homes out of that wilderness were re -
bust men of mighty valor. There are
few like them today. Where now
could you find men who, with the
tools these men used, would face the
problem of cleaniiig 'a farm in condri-'
tons such Q,S then existed: , • •
l'n the years as they passed I pon-
dered these things in my mind. When
4 had this ticket I eineatme-d that I
would win the "Sweep," that 1 would
have $100,00a. With the $100,000 I
would -buy back the oldefarm, plant it
in trees. return. it to forest, a replica,
so far as T could make it, 'of what it
once .was. Here, too, the trees were
mostly maple and elm along the high-
er levels, basswood, with here and
there *a butternut -In the lower areas.
"Haw." trees grew in the beaver mea --
dew. close to the ereek.. How gorg-
ous they were, in May! In the fence-,
corners when I knew it, there' were a
few Clumps 'of Wild plum and choke-
cherry trees.
When I had- it all planted and the
trees- growing I would donate it 'to
the Township of Howick to be main-
tained as a permanent forest, as - a
memorial to the :men who, in. a life- •
time accomplished' the impossible,
cleared the land, built homes and
barns, lived to _change anwilderness
into a great. farming area:' They were
proof of what could be done by honest •
toilh a thing which today there is a 1
'tendency to despise. There are pas-
ler ways of getting rich now, at least i
we think, there are. I wonder if there
are better ways of making a' life?
How long ,Would it take for these 1
planted ' trees to groWeeto a forest as
it was, it the days of my father? I •
don't know. It ,seems to me that 100
years would do the trick. It's -a short
• space of tittle i the life of a people:1
Once the trees started to grow 'and
became- a living monument which
would help us to remeinber at least
one of the great things well worth
'te iembering, • ,
So the ,dream, remains; ,I have still
to win the "Sweep.' have in im-
agination planted a great Many farms
like that. I- .have .visiened: them in
'the 'West otterinea:s• where now there
is: nothing but :saed, I have planned
tham in imagination along the banks
pf streams. I have -wondere•cl'hf there
.were trees growing in other countries
which would be more suitable than
the ones :ke n•owhave in, the West.
There they would serve a, different
purpose. Here in Ontario we ahould,
have them :in every county, p.erhapen
in every ton-nship, a forestinemorial
of fifty' acres or even a hundred a
living tribute to the greatness of the
men who made the nation..
