Tomatoes Planted in Sod Nova Scotian tomato growers have proved that tomatoes plant- ed in fall ploughed sod do excep- tionally well, so well, in fact, that Provincial Horticulturalist C. M. Collins, of Truro, has suggested that more sod land be put under tomatoes. A survey recently carried out has given proof that plants in sod do not take .blossom end rot as easily as. those planted under the usual conditions. In one field under Mr. 'Collins supervision 10,000 plants were set out, all machine planted; they were set out in heavy sod which had had two tons of limestone per acre. At planting time they were given fertilizer and a little later each plant was ringed with a 3-15-6 fertilizer. In spite of last year's drought the crop was an excellent one.

The machine planting of toma- toes is interesting although it is not the first time I have seen it done. However, growers are us- ually afraid to use one because the young stems are particularly brittle. This experience of the Nova Scotians might do something to encourage others to try it and eliminate the heavy labor costs. Flowering shrubs must, for the purpose of pruning, be classified into two groups—those that flower on last year's wood, such tis For- sythia, and those which la•oduce on new growths' In the latter case the Mock -Orange is it good example. Those shrubs which flower on new growth should be thinned in the early spring but those, like the Forsyt,'lia, which flower on the old wood sthould not be pruned until after flowering.

Through progress in implement engineering the burden of farm work has been transferred from muscles to machines— with decided advantages physically, socially and economically to those engaged in agriculture.. Latest machines like the Massey -Harris self-propelled combine have established a new appreciation of the importance of mechanization and a realization that farming with modern power machines is easier, and more profitable.

Numerous experiments have been conducted during the past few year and the conference was de- signed to enable the results to be discussed and compared and the best possible technique applied to the different conditions. Wine Production Up Wine production has steadily, increased during the Last. 50 years in North and South America and in Africa, and world production has teen stepped up about 23 per cent, it was revealed at a wine conference, held recently in Al- giers.

The exact cause of bloating is not known but appears to be directly associated with the inability of the animal to get rid of the gases, pro- duced in the fermentations occur- ring in the rumen, by belching. Under certain feed conditions, how- ever, the gas is not expelled by belching, and consequently accum- NOTICE Dumping Facilities TOWNSHIP OF McKILLOP RESIDENTS The Township of McKillop has entered into an agreement with the Townships of Morris and Grey, for the joint use of a community scrap dump. The agreement is for a period of five years. - The dump is located in Grey Township, one mile east of Walton, at Lot 4, Concession 18. It may be identified by a sign indicating its location. JOHN M. ECKERT, Clerk, Township of Me illop ° b (Continued from Page 2) ion Experimental Farm, Indian; Head, Sask. Skim milk is the -best protein supplement for all 'classes of pigs and it supplies certain minerals and vitamins as, well. One or two pounds of skim milk, or butter- milk, per pound of grain is recom- mended for pregnant and nursing ' sows; about 2 to 2% pounds for • weanlings, while the amount may be gradually reduced to one •pound per pound of grain for (finishing market pigs. Sweet skim milk is best for nursing sows, nursing and weanling pigs. In the absence of skim milk it is necessary to pro- vide a substitute such as tankage or a mixed protein supplement in suitable amounts. The amount of tankage to feed varies from eight to 10 per cent for nursing and weanling pigs to four or five per cent for finishing market pigs and for pregnant and nursing sows. The mixed supplements should be fed according to directions sup- plied by the manufacturer. Minerals likely to be lacking in ordinary rations are common salt, calcium and iodine. All pigs re- quire salt at the rate of one-half to one pound per 160 pounds of grain mixture. It is, a good prac- tice to supply iodized salt to pigs of all ages. If sufficient aaulounts of skim milk, tankage or mixed' supple- ments are not fed, the required calcium or lime can. be supplied by adding one -,half to one per cent of ground limestone to the meal ration of all pigs. Each sow during pregnancy should receive (in addition to iodiz- ed salt) a tablespoonful two or' three times weekly of a solution consisting of one ounce of potas- sium iodide dissolved in a gallon of water for the prevention . of hairlessness, flabbiness and gener- al weakness in new born pigs. Nursing pigs housed indoors need an iron supplement to guard against anaemia which causes sev- ere losses during the nursing and weanling stages. Sufficient iron sulphate to cover a dime, or half this amount of reduced iron, plac- ed on the tongue of each young pig within two or three days of birth, and then once weekly until four or five doses have been giv- en, is effective in the prevention of anaemia. The feeding of a good pig starter from the three-week stage will help greatly in supply- ing nutrients necessary for thrift and growth and since grain feeds contain some iron the danger from anaemia is also greatly reduced. If pigs are housed without direct sunlight, pasture or green feed they are likely to suffer from lack of vitamins. The' feeding of a tea- spoonful of a vitamin feeding oil once weekly to nursing pigs, the same amount. daily to weanlings, two teaspoonsful daily to growing pigs up to 125 ponnds, pregnant and nursing sows, will prevent many losses and greatly improve the general health and thrift of the herd. ulates, causing bloating. Bloat most often occurs in thick, immature stands of alfalfa or clov- er. Grasses rarely cause bloat. Grasses have sharp, irritating sur- faces which may facilitate belch- ing. Apparently some coarse, scratchy material is required to ir- ritate the rumen and initiate be),eh- ing, thus enabling the animal 'to remove accumulated gas from the rumen. When alfalfa or clover contains relatively large amounts of water or if they are wet as the result of frost, dew, or rain, they are more than likely to be danger- ous for use as feeds. A heavy rain follow;,, __ a period of drought will :' e a rapid luscious growtof the legumes, thus in- creasing the bloat hazard. Pastur- ing the alfalfa or clover aftgr they have reached the blooming stage helps prevent trouble. Mature leg- umes stimulate belching by which the animal rids itself of the gas as it forms. By using a fairly large proportion of grass, there will be less danger of bloat in cattle than if a legume is used alone. Experi- ence at the 'Dominion Experimen- tal Station, Melfort, Sask., has *shown that bloat rarely occurs if grasses make up at least 50 per cent of the mixture, says Superin- tendent H. E. Wilson. Grasses and legumes together provide a pasture that is'very nutritious and, if the kinds are chosen carefully they will provide good pasture fairly continuously throughout the sea- son. Certain precautions will help to reduce the number of cases of bloat. Never turn hungry animals into a pasture containing alfalfa. Feed the animals well on grass pasture or some dry feed first. Al- lowing the cattle to have access topalatable liay in a rack or stack will reduce the incidence of bloat on legume pasture. Mild cases of bloat can frequent- ly be relieved by placing a stick crosswise in the animal's mouth to stimulate belching. If the bloat is detected soon en- ough, a drench 01 mineral oil, tur- pentine, coal oil or formalin may produce relief. Give any one of he following mixtures: (a) a quart of mineral oil; or (b) four .ablespoons£ul of turpentine in a pint of water or raw linseed oil; r (c) half a cup coal oil. in en - ugh milk to make a pint; or (d) ne tablespoonful of formalin formaldehyde) in a pint of cold water or milk. • Serious .eases usually can be aved only by puncturing the umen in the proper- spot with a rocar or small knife. This will allow the gas to escape, and is ften a life-saver.

Owning your own home builds security -two ways. It allows you to make a sound investment through regular savings, and it brings freedom from hous- ing worries. Hundreds of thousands of Canadians now own their own homes, built with the help of life insurance dollars. 1. A steady job is the foundation of security. And job -security can be in- creased by showing initia- tive — the quality which, surveys prove, makes workers most valuable. Life insurance dollars,' in- vested in industries and public works, create many new jobs each year. 4. Life insurance protects' you and your family as you build security in all these other ways. It helps to provide income for your retirement. And it guaran- tees your dependants an income in the event of your death. Thus by owning life insurance you take your most vital step to security! 3. Cash resources, such as savings accounts and - Canada Savings Bonds, promote security by pro- - viding funds for emergen- cies. And it is important to save regularly. Life insur- ance helps you save sys- tematically — for family protection, retirement and other future needs. Here's to your future! In all these ways, life in- surance helps you and yours to find greater security. Today 5 million Canadian life insurance policyholders are helping themselves and each other to face the future with increasing confidence 1 The > ?
