Publio
BY R. M. McKAY, BLYTH
How may a person learn if he has or has
not an error of vision?
The Optometrist should give ,him the
facts regarding his eyes,
Would this information be valuable?
Yea. If an error of vision exists its con -
rection would improve the patients health
and efficiency.
What is the greatest handicap Optom-
etrists have to evercome?
The lack of knowledge on the part of
the public as to•the value of Optometry.

"I couldn't believe them when they
told me at the station, yesterday, that
you had arrived," said Bobbie, chang-
ing the subject, because Judy's
graphic words moved hint more than
he cared to shove. "You knight have
written."
"There 1.vasn't time. And, anyway,
did it twitter? For if we were away
a thousand years from Stair, we
should come back to find you and Edits
just the same! Say, Bobbie, I've just
met Peter Garvock at the march dyke,
nt the very place where he and Alan
fought that dreadful Sunday after-
noon, which you and I will never for-
get!"
Bobbie leaned up against the stone
balustrade, looking the deep interest
he felt.
"So you saw old Peter—eh? Well
—and didn't he look a sick and sorry
man?"
"He did. Among the changes that
are going, Bobbie, the greatest, I do
i;e:ieve, has taken place in him!"
"He has never had a day's peace of
mind, I believe, since it all happened.
lIow did he take your coming back?
And dees he know that Tel:ss Carlyon
is actually Alan's wife?"
"I to:d him. I don't exactly know
what is inside of Peter, but it is sonre-
;hing sleep, and very different from
what was there last tinma I saw him!(
But do come inside now and have
a;.:oe tea, and see Carlotta."
TLe pian of w•ilcai they had talked'
was still out upon Barassie Hill, the
prey of a thousand conflicting'
thoughts. He spent hours roaming
there, in the sweet spring solitude,!
a::d finally, out of the chaos of his
tt•.oughts, there toe the image of one •
strong dewire, Shadowy and almost`
incoherent at first, before many hours
were over it hiad taken shape and had
'tecome the purpose of a life.
iietwern eight and nine o'clock that
tight, one of the reduced household
al' Stair was surprised when the frons -
door be:l rang, to find Mr. Peter Gar -1 on the step.
"1 wish to see Mrs. Rankine, if you
p:ease. Te:1 her that it is Mr. Peter
Garvock. and that the business is
u: ;rent."
"fere sir. Come in," said the wo-
men, who was a etrcinger to the fam-'
ily history of Stair and The Mees,
�� r d was ;.i:yip:y surprised that a teller'
should cone so late on a Sunday even-
ing to the house.
Carlotta was alone when the mes-
sage was brought, and after reflecting
for a moment. she rose and went
downstairs without consulting Judy,
:.s was her first impulse.
Judy was in the Pool, as it hap-
pened, alternately refreshing and har-
rowing her memory with old things
and old dreams; and thus so remotely
hidden at the back of the house that
she did not hear the clang of the bell,
nor the entrance of the visitor whom
the maid had put into the little morn-
ing -room.
Carlotta, in a sweeping gown of
black velvet, with a turned -back col-
lar of old lace, looked a perfect pic-
ture, but Peter Garvock's pulses did
not stir at sight of her. The fierce
passion which had devastated his life,
and the lives of others, had mirned
itself out, and left but an empty ker-
nel behind.
Carlotta was completely mistress of
herself, and gave him a quite kindly
greeting, but she neither offered her
hand nor did he.
"You aro surprised, doubtless, at
this late call," he began in his slow-
est, most guttural and difficult voice.
"But the matter is urgent. 1 have
called to ask whether you will be sol
good as to give me the latest clues you!
have concerning your—your hus-
band," he said deliberately, though
undoubtedly he faltered on the name.
"We have no recent clues," she
answered simply. "The only address
we got, when we went to New York, �
was that of a cattle ranch in Alberta,
belonging to a Tian named Fordyce.
But Alan never went there."
"But he went in that direction, I
understood from Dr. Sanderson?"
said Peter with pninful eagerness.
"Oh, yes. We believe that he is
somewhere in Western Canada, or,
more likely still, in the Klondyke. He
met a man en the boat going out, who
asked him to go up to the Yukon with
him, and I believe that is what he
has done,"
"That is all the information you can
give me? Do you happen to know
the name of that man?"
"Affery. And he had an address
at the Canadian Bank of Commerce
in Dawson City. I have written there,
but got no answer."
Peter Garvock took out his note-
book and made a note of all the names,
and addresses of which Carlotta had
spoken.
"Why do you want them? I've told i
you it isn't any use writing. We've
done everything in the writing and
cabling line that it is possible to do,
but without result."
Peter Garvock's face wore a strange
expression as he closed the book and
replaced it in his pocket.
"1 don't want to write. But I shall
go, Mrs. Alan, and bring him back
if he is alive. If he is dead—then I
shall assure myself of the fact before
I come back to Scotland, so that your
mind—and mine—may be at rest."
Carlotta's face visibly paled.
"But why should you do that?" she
asked unsteadily. "1)o you know what
you are undertaking? It is a fright-
ful journey to the Yukon. It will
take you six months, and unto:d
money, and then—and then—wi:l it
be of any use?"
"I have to make that journey. You
have heard the word atonement, Car-
lotta? Well, it is atonement I seek to
make," said Peter Garvock, and pass-
ed from her astonished eyes out into
the night.
She did not sec him again, but by
the middle of the week it was known
in Ayr that Peter Garvock had left
Scotland for America, and that the
object of his journey was to find the
lost Laird of Stair.

CHAPTER XXX.
THE TRAIL.
Some wise person has observed tint
tho only way in which to learn the
geography of the earth correctly is
to travel in leisurely and observant
fashion over its entire surface,
That being an impossible feat for
most of people, the great majority
have to live in a state of comparative
ignorance regarding the conditions of
life at places remote from their own
habitation and environment.
Peter Garvock was reminded of this
many times as he made his moment-
ous journey to the Yukon territory,
following in the tracks of his lost
kinsman. Tho railway over the fam-
ous White Pass was not long opened,
and in London he had been able to
obtain very little information regard-
ing the journey. In New York he
fared little better, and was obliged to
pifslron to Vancouver, where he had
been informed he could take his tick-
ets to cover the journey and obtain
the fullest information regarding it.
1,
y the time he reached Vancouver
May was drawing to a close.
In the railway, journey from the
Atlantic to the Pacific coast, he had
ample opportunity of being impressed
by the land of vast distances and
boundless opportunities, which has
lured so many of our best and bravest
to its capacious heart, He tented witli
his fellow -travellers, for, though the!

office in Renfield Street, Glasgow, on
the morning of the day on which he
had left Scotland on his strange quest.;
At White Morse City he learned be- r

Saves 004 A Year
Cooking experts figure that'the
SMP Enameled Ware Roaster will
save the average Canadian family
fully $24.00 a year in meat bills.
The secret is, it roasts the meat
with very little shrinkage. Also, it
makes cheap cuts taste like the
best ones.
You place the roast in the roaster,
put on the cover: the roaster does
the rest. No basting required.
Every roast is perfectly cooked.
The cover fits close, so that cooking
odors cannot escape. Grease can't spatter
out, which means a sweet clean oven.
Prices range from 85c, to $3.50 each,
depending on size and flnish—and don't
forget the saving of $24.00 yearly.,

STRETCH THE MANURE PILE
Some Hints on How This May be Done on the Average
Farm.
BY 0. B. PRICE,
While manure is not a balanced
plant .food, nevertheless it should all
be saved and applied economically.
Enough manure is not produced to
meet the needs of the average farm-
er. Where the supply is limited It is
better to apply four to Six t0118 per
acre over the entire field rather than
use a heavy application over n small-
er area. The efficiency per ton of
manure is greater where the email
applications aro used.
After manure is produced, great
caro should be observed in preventing
the loss of the plant food elements,
I3acteria aro constantly working in
manure, liberating much of the am-
monia, This loss can readily be de-
tected by the strong odor of ammonia
in the barn, This is a product of de-
composition and fermentation. It can
be prevented to a great extent by
packing or }cooping thoroughly moist.
This slows up or prevents the bac-
terial action which liberates the am-
monia. Manure in a thoroughly dry
and compact condition, or thoroughly
wet, does not ferment very fast, When
it is moderately moist the bacterial
action is fastest.
Much of the value of manure is
also lost by weathering and leaching,
In addition to large amounts of nitro-
gen being lost, much phosphoric acid,
potash and organic flintier are wash-
ed away from tho manure piles that
are allowed to remain in the barn
lot unprotected. Liquid manure,
which contains pull nitrogen and
potash, is often lost through the
drainage waters around the barn.
Phosphoric acid does not leach away
to as great an extent as does nitro-
gen or potash.
Much of the plant food in manure
can he saved by immediate applica-
tion to the land, Tho topography of
the land, of course, is an important
factor. When manure is spread on
hillsides there is danger of consider-
able loss by erosion unless it is work-
ed well into the soil, This should be
done immediately after application.
Applications during the winter should
bo delayed if possible. When applied
on tho snow much of the plant food
is carried away with the melting
snow. If it is kept compact or wet,
or if it freezes there is little loss
through fermentation, Where the
land is level it can bo applied at al-
most any tine convenient and can bo
hauled directly from tho barn.
Manure should be evenly spread for
best results, This is difficult to do
without u manure spreader, In some
places it is the practice to haul to the
field, put into small piles, and then
spread from these piles by hand,
There is no advantage to this, but it
does increase the labor cost,
The value of manure can be great-
ly increased by the addition of some
reinforcing material. Gypeurn or
land plaster, rock phoaphato and add
phosphate aro commonly used. Acid
phosphate is the best to use. Besides
taking up much of the ammonia,
which would bo lost through fermen-
tation ars,! leaching, it adds an avail-
able form of phosphoric acid to tho
manure, This is important, for ma-
nure is low in phosphoric acid. When
acid phosphate is used at the rate of
forty to fifty pounds per ton of ma-
nure it supplies plenty of available
phosphoric acid for the average crops.
Limestone may be used with manure
but it will not have the same effect
on tho millennia that acid phosphate
does. Hydrated lime should never be
used in direct contact with an appli-
cation of manure, for it has a tend-
ency to liberate additional ammonia.
It is much better to apply any kind
of limo separately.
It makes little difference if the ma-
nure is plowed under or used as a
top -dressing. This will depend upon
where it is to be used. When used
for corn it is best to plow it under,
when used for wheat it is generally
put on as a top -dressing. A light
dressing of manure on the soil for
clovers and alfalfa seedings is a great
aid in establishing a good stand.
There is danger, however, of intro-
ducing noxious weeds when this is
done, Well -rotted manure is best for
top -dressing for it contains fewer
'weed seeds.
Use the manure on the lighter and
less productive spots on the farm.
Much of the nitrogen and organic
matter can be supplied in this way.
It should bo kept in mind, however,
that additional phosphoric acid is
needed to make a balanced plant food.
The Storage of Apples.
It is a rare thing to find an apple
grower who is equipped with a renlly
satisfactory and adequate storage
plant. Sometimes it is impossible for
a grower to have such a pant, be-
cause he cannot afford it; but most of
us, if we really put our minds to it,
might very decidedly improve on
what we have. And if we cannot do
it now, then we ought at least to have
the matter very definitely in mind
and be planning for such a storage
when tho time comes.
A really good storage which will
keep our apples in perfect condition
right through the season would revo-
lutionize the apple business. It would 1
put our product in the consumers'
hands in better condition, thereby
encouraging consumption; it would
extend the period over which we would
have apples for sale, which would
also increase consumption; it would.
make us measurably independent of
buyers and market conditions by en-
abling us to hold our crops when
prices were not satisfactory,
Last April the writer had the plea -
lure of . eating a McIntosh apple in
absolutely perfect condition, though
the normal season for that variety is
October and November. It had been
kept in n farm storage, but a good
one. What would not such a storage
on every apple farm do for the apple
Industry? Now, we cannot all have
such storages, but wo can make a
start,
What aro the essentials of such a
storage? What shall we aim at?
Perhaps the two most important
points to consider, so far as causing
the apples to keep well, are temper-
ature and moisture. It has been'
shown that a temperature of about
86 degrees, which is as low as we can
usually expect to get an unrefriger-1
ated storage, will be quite satisfac-
tory, and we ought to nim to secure
this temperature -in our storage room
just as early in the autumn as pos-
ale. By keeping the cellar open '
and well ventilated on cold nights.
and closing it in the morningit is
possible in many orchard sections to
force the temperature down to a sur-
prisingly low point in a relatively
short time.
As to moisture, apples will usually •
keep best in a fairly moistatmosel.
phore, 80 per cent, humidity being,
perhaps the best for most varieties
and conditions. This means that wo
should avoid a concrete floor unless
we have special means to keep the
air moist.
A third point of decided importance
in a storago.room is ventilation, since
stagnant air is not conducive to the
best keeping of fruit,
Other points to be kept in mind in
this storage of ours aro adequate pro-
tection against extreme cold, if ono is
in a section where this is likely to
occur—to bo secured most easily by
dead air spaces; protection against
changes] in temperature, which are
always objectionable; and guarding
against any typo of heitYing, . s
The above is only suggestive, Stor-
age is one of our vital problems and
we shall solve it most quickly if a lot
of us get to work on the solution.
Improvement in Canadian
Bacon.
Canada normally produces more
pork than she consumes, Great Bri-
tain provides the only market for
our surplus, and the future of our
pork industry depends, therefore, on
our ability to produce a commodity
that the British market will buy. Tho
best seller of all pork products on
that market is the good quality bacon
side, generally known as "Wiltshire,"
Sensing the need for improvement in
our export bacon, about three years
ago tho Dominion Dept. of Agricul-
ture launched a bacon hog campaign
which includes the grading of live
hogs at packing houses and stock
yards, demonstrations in hog grading
at country shipping points, demon-
strations on export bacon sides, win-
ter short courses at country points
and at packing plants, the organiza-
tion of boys' and girls' swine clubs
and of bacon hog fairs, and assistance
in tho filling of orders for pure bred
boars and sow stock of bacon typo,
Tho success of this campaign has
been striking. In 1924 there were
89,000 more hogs marketed which
graded select bacon than in 1923; and
there has been a remarkable improve-
ment in the quality of hogs in tho
second or "thick smooth" grade.
Canada's commercial position over-
seas has also greatly improved in the
consistent narrowing in the price be-
tween top Danish and top Canadian
bacon. A Canadian packing house
entered Wiltshire sides at the London
Dairy Show last autumn and tho
nutumn before and carried off pre-
mier honors each year. In 1924 the
marketing of hogs was the heaviest
in the history of this country yet the
price levels for the concluding weeks
were the highest of the year, this be-
ing duo to our ability to export our
surplus to advantage and to increased
domestic consumption, the direct re-
su:t of improvement in quality,
It seems to mo that farmers who
donot work with their, agricultural
representativo and use tho free cor-
respondence coarses of their agricul-
tural colleges aro missing a lot of
profitable information that may bo
had for the asking.—Oliver Sumthers.

NEW CANADIAN PRIMA DONNA
This Is MI86 Loretta Mclilwen, soprano, C1IC,4011 out of a hundred Canadian
competitors, as possessing the greatest pomibilltles for an operatic career.
With her is Captain Clews, of the Canadian Pacific liner Mellta. Miss Mc-
Ewen Is on her wny to Parts to study her art, under Madame Pauline Donaida,
world -famed songstress.
The competition In which Miss McEwen was successful ivoeheld recent-
ly in Montreal. Voices from all over the Dominion were heard by Madame
Donalda, who adjudicated.
MISS McEwen possecieee a soprano voice of great range and power, is
a good actrees, well educated, speaks French and Englih fluently and is con-
versant with Italian and Spanish. Madame Donalda has expressed the opinion
that there is a great career before the singer just brought into tho limelight.
Miss McEwen is the daughter of Mr. Wililain MeEwen, of Outremont,
Montreal. On her father's side the descent is Scotch and on her mother's
it is French. "I hope I shall bring credit to Canada," wero her farewell
words to friends seeing her off on the Molita, which sailed front Montreal.
Sweet Clover Cultivation.
In his pamphlet on "Sweet Clover,"
Mr. Derick of the Brandon, Man.,
Dominion Experimental Farm throws
out some suggestions deserving of
consideration not only in his own
province, kg generally elsewhere,
After alluding to the fact that the
value of sweet clover as a soil builder
has been definitely proved, Mr. Der -
ick says: Sweet clover can be depend-
ed upon for good yields of hay under
almost any conditions of soil and
climate; ,as a pasture it has a carry-
ing capacity unequalled by most
crops; it is an abundant seed pro-
ducer; it can be made into silage, but
to prevent sliminess requires further
maturity or to be mixed with some
dry roughage; early seeding is re-
commended; when a nurse crop is
used 10 or 15 pounds of clover seed per
acre is a satisfactory rate of seed-
ing; shallow seeding is preferable,
provided the seedbed is mellow and
firm; seeding with a nurse crop at
slightly less than the normal rate is
economical; cutting the crop in the
early bud- stage, leaving a four or
five -inch stubble willsmake the most
palatable hay and allow for a second
growth; harvesting with tho binder
and curing in the sheaf will preserve
the maximum amount of leaves and
reduce the cost of handling the crop;
brome grass has advantages over
other grasses as a mixture with
sweet clover; growing sweet clover in
intertilled rows for seed production
is recommended; inoculation of the
seed is inexpensive and is advisable
on the newer fields.
Control of the Bark Beetle.
Writing of the bark beetle and its
control in Eastern Canada, Dr. J, M,
Swaine, Associate Dominion Entom-
ologist, advises that during the latter
part'of the summer and in autumn
before it is safe to burn, the infested
bark can be removed quickly with
narrow spade, such as those used in
fire -fighting, But, Dr, Swaine add,
it has proved cheaper and moro ef-
fective to saw up the tree and burn
it whenever tho fire hazard permits.
Burning wise destroys the secondary
beetles that undoubtedly play an
lin-
portant part in the outbreaks. If the
trunk is Tooled it may bo salvaged
for pulp several years after it be-
comes infested and for lumber if
wood -boring beetles have not already
entered it.
Tho treatise on the destructive bark
beetle makes a pamphlet of thirty
pages with seven plates and can be
had free on application to the Pub-
lications Branch, Ottawa. Outbreaks
of tho beetle have been reported in
the Gaspe sPeninsula, Que., the Al-
goma district in Ontario, in northern
Manitoba, northern Saskatchewan,
northern Alberta, and in some parts
of British Columbia,
Flowers in Winter.
Boys, and especially girls, you
should have a vaso of flowers or
leaves on the centre -table all the year

!flowers often spoils the effect. Let
the stem and the beautiful foliage

dren in the schools how to arrange
flowers, and this is called "Ben chi
jin"—meaning God, universe and

This loss is preventable.
Treatment for Stinking Smut of
Wheat --Remove all smut balls by the
U83 of a good and properly adjusted
fanning mill, or by placing the seed
grain, a bushel at a time, in a tub of
water and stirring. The smut balls
being' light will rise to the surface
and can be skimmed off. When the
smut balls are removed treat the seed
with formalin as follows: Place the
wheat to be treated in a pile on the
barn floor and shovel it over into
another pile, and as the shovelling is
going on spray with n solution con-
sisting of ono part formalin and 40
parts water. Use this solution at the
rate of one pint to twenty-five bushels
of seed. A.small quart sealer sprayer
is the best for this use. Cover the
treated grain with sacks for 4 or 5
hour Ei and then sow. Sacks nnd drill
should also be treated.
CAMPING WITH THE FARM WAGON
BY HIRAM H. SHEPARD.
All of us have a little of the Indian,
the primitive savage, in us yet. And
it is a good thing for our bodies and
for our minds that wo still possess
some savage nature. It keeps us
closer to the ground, closer to Mother
Nature, where 'we are healthier,
stronger and happier.
We older and younger boys like to
get away from the hard grind and
stiff mechanics of the farm.
Wo like togo camping as many
times of the year as we cnn. One of!
the very best ways is to go in the,
farm wagon.
Tho best camping place, of course,
is along some good-sized creek, lake
or river in the thickest woods you
can find. With a tenni and wagon
you can go anywhere.
Two boys, oven four, can sleep like
tops in the wagon box on a bed of
hay or straw. With n high -wheel
farm wagon, a dandy cot for two can
bo slung underneath from the wagon
axles. Sleeping on the ground is all
right in dry, warm weather, but not
for damp ground and cool nights.
It is always well, no matter how
dry the weather, to take along n good-
sized tarpaulin, or canvas, to protect
the campers and outfit from possible
rain. To support the canvas over tho
wagon, cut two poles about ns thick
'as your arm and eight to ten feet
long to stand up V fashion at front
and rear of tho wagon, crossing and

LET'S BRING LAST YEAR'S
CLOTHES UP TO DATE
BY EDITH M. BURTIS,
now to convert last year's clothes
into this year's modes is not the rid-
dle that on first thought it may seem
to be, and I am hopeful that tho fol-
lowing suggestions will serve to in-
spire ways and means for your re-
modeling problems.
True, the straight-line silhouette
has had to take second place in favor
of the flared silhouette. But since
there are several variations of the
flare and many of these are easily at-
tained, the change in line need cause
no, anxiety to the women who must
utilize every garment as long as there
is a possible chance of remodeling it.
In fact, the flare offers excellent re-
modeling suggestions.
Take for example the conversion of
a straight-line slip -on -over -the -head
dress into a jumper frock to be worn
over shirt blouses or guimpes.
It is an easy matter t.o cut out the
front and the underarms by putting
tho dress to be thus remodeled ori a
dress form or on soino person of sim-
ilar size and shape, and, with u tape
measure and pins, marking the exact
depth and shaping that will convert
the old frock into a jumper. Next
marls these lines with chalk or with
a basting thread a,nd then cut away
the material to effect the shaping de-
sired, leaving, however, a seam allow-
ance of one-quarter or three-eighths
of an inch.
Finish the edges with a narrow
bias facing, preferably of silk. If a
cord is inserted in the bias facing it
will prevent the armhole and neck-
line from stretching or tearing.
Tho pockets may be procured from
the piece cut out of the front of the
dress.
To get the skirt flare may not seem
so simple a procedure, though it real-
ly 17 an easily done bit of work.
Open the side seams of the dress
to the height desired, which may need
.to be governed to some extent by the
material available, but in any case
be content, since flares of all descrip-
tions are fashionable and you can
make no mistake.
However, it is moro than likely that
these plait sections must of necessity
bo of a different material, so, as a
concrete example, lot us assume that
the plait flare will start at the hips.
Cut these ineort sections the length.
desired, including a hem allowance in
width to match the hem of the dress
and about eight and three-quarters
inches wide, which width will allow
for two plaits each two filches wide
and for an adequate seam allowance
on each edge of three-eighths of an
inch.
Tho next step in tho remodeling
process is to join the plait insert sec-
tion to each edge of the skirt open-
ing, then meet these edges at the
centro of the ineert and carefully and
neatly press the plaits thus formed
into position, fastening the insert
section at the top by stitching or fells
Ing neatly to the dress.
GEORGETTE FOR DRESS -IIP FROCKS.
Or if tho straight dress to bo .re-
modeled is of a character suitable to
use as a dress -up dress, as for in-
stance ono of the printed silks that
have been so fashionable the past
summer, it is pleasing to know that
it can be transformed into a modish-
ly flared frock by the aid of shirred
inserts of georgette and without an.
undue expenditure of time and effort)
Four inserts are a sufficient num*:
ber,to give an entirely new line and
an up-to-date appearance to an old
frock, provided each shirred section
is not less than half n yard wide,
The height of these sections should
be determined by the figure require-
ments of the wearer, though the hip-,
h!gh inserts aro safer for all types'
of figure. Make those sections and
arrange them before cutting away
the material of tho frock underneath)
since this is an easier method than
the plan of first cutting the dress,'
which would probably bo the method
to come first to mind,
A scarf of the georgette fastened
under the collar and looped at the
hack will add to the dressiness of tho
frock, or, if preferred, this scarf may
bo adjusted so that it will tie at the,
front.
Two strips of georgette about nine
inches wide, each strip ono yard in
length, are required, and machine
picot -edge finish is preferable to a
rolled hem, though the latter finish
may bo used if it is not possible to7
have picoting done.
Best Bulbs for Fall Planting.
Flowers are, no doubt, enjoyed
more in the spring than at any other
period of the growing season. After
a long winter the first flowers are
eagerly sought for and if bulbs have
been planted in the autumn ono has
not long to wait for flowers for
Snowdrops bloom as soon as the snow
has gone. Then come in rapid RUCCOS-
S1011, and some at the same time, the
Scillas or Squills, Glory of the Snow
or Chionadoxa, Crocus, Grape Hya-
cinth, Dutch Hyacinth, Narcissus in
great variety, and early, cottage and
Darwin Tulips. These give a suc-
cession of bloom from early in April,
or earlier if the frost is out of the
ground, until well on in June.
While the bulbs are growing in
Holland, the flowers for next year aro
being formed in the bulb. Later, the
bulbs aro dug, cured and shipped to
Canada. Knowing that the flowers
are already formed in the bulbs be-
fore planting, ho who proposes either
to grow them in the garden or pet
them for the house will readily under-
stand that large, well-developed buibs
are likely to give better flowers than
small ones. In ordering this should
be remembered. No amount of care
can add more blooms to n hyacinth
spike than were formed when the
bulb was growing in Holland.
UnlesS the bulbs are \yell rooted in
the soil outside or in the pots in tho
house, the results will not be satis-
factory, hence the desirability of ob-
taining them as soon as they are
offered for sale in the stores, which
will be during the month of Septem-
ber. Tulips, narcissus and hyacinths
should bo planted from four to six
inches deep to the bottom of the bulb,
and about the same distance apart,
while the smaller bulbs, such as snow-
drops, crocuses, and squills, may be
planted about two inches npart and
from two•to three inches deep.
•

ieties of the more hnportant bulbs for

Sen That They Are First Carefully'
Fed 11'Ith 1Veil Prepared Syrup
—Carefully Replace Pack-
ing for Whiter Stand.
At all duces during summer and
early autumn care should be taken to
see that colonies do not starve. So
long as they have enough for daily
food winter feeding should be de-
layed until the first half of October.
Each hive should then be given all
the syrup It will take. This may be
anywhere from 10 pounds to 40 or 50
pounds, depending on the strength
of the colony and the amount of
btores it already has. Tho syrup is
made of two parts best granulated
sugar to one of water. Boll the
water, then add the sugar and stir
till thoroughly dissolved. The ouly
points to be observed are to avoid
scorching the sugar and to see that
no granules are left in the syrup to
start crystallization after it has beeu
stored in the combs.
When feeding time comes in the
r arly part of October, the packing is i
removed from over the feeder -boards t
and a number of filled palls or jars
are inverted over the holes. If the
days are warm this is done towards
evening to prevent robbing, and it
the nights are cool packing is put I
around the feeders to hold the brood -I

clown the teed. As fast as feeders
aro emptied they should be refilled,
until the bees signify that they have
enough by ceasing all work on the
feeders. The latter are then remov-
ed, the burlap, paper and packing
aro replaced, and the roof Is adjusted
los the winter. The feediug may
take a week or more in cool weather,

TO Spray or to Dust Potatoes?
The high eiliciency of liquid Bor•
tleanx mixture for the control of in-
,
:j,et and fungus enemies of potato
i.riliage has been demonstrated In
leans so often as to make its use gen-
, cal with potato -growers. Dusting
has been used considerably, but care -
folly conducted tests over a period
of four years show that the practice
le not so efficient as the liquid form
of application. Where water Is diffl-
,•ult to obtain, and in small fields
where it is necessary to use hand
:.pparatus, dusting is advisable. For
aroas larger than one acre and with
water and a power sprayer available,
thin spray.
iodine In the Ration.
A small amount of iodine is needed
in the ration of dairy cattle for the
proper functioning of the thyroid
gland. A deficiency of this element
i results in goitre or "big neck" in
calves, Iodine is often lacking in soils
distant from the sea, and consequent•
t ly goitre is more prevalent in such
regions than near the sea coast.
Uecaying sea weeds liberate this
1 element which is carried by the wind
over the land and taken up from the
': Roll by the crops.
Marketing the, Potato Crop.
The potato grower should cater to
'the wishes of the most particular and
exacting customers. He should furn-
ish a choice product in a most at-
tractive form and should carefully
study the demands of the market he
wishes to serve. For the hest prices
the potatoes should be uniform,
suund, smooth and of good table qual-
ity, whether selected by the pound,
the basket, the bushel, tho bag, the
barrel or the car load. The com-
mercial potato grower should not be
confined to the local Market, but
should bo in a position to put his
potatoes on the best market avail-
able, either through hie own efforts
or through the medium of a co-opera-
tive association. It sometimes occurs
that of the price paid by the con-
st,nler for a bushel of potatoes about
two-thirds are required to defray the
cost of transportation and of distri-
bution, and ono -third is left for the
grower. This is not as It should be.
Undoubtedly one of the hest reme-
dies for such a condition is co -opera -
'.fon on the part of the growers them -
solves. --Dept, of Extension, O.A.O.,
