Taking Canada as a whole, annual Ly pasture crop e are generally wed as eupplementary crops, and are therefore of seeondary importarce as compared with hay or pasture crops of a perennial nature, such as alfalfa, clover, tunotny, ew. trhere are dia- tricts however, especially iu the. Prairie Provinces, wnere annual hay • auel pastUre crops are rather luillore taut, This is especially the ease where 'the supply of natural prairie hay and Pasture ie scant, and in dhericts where on .ecount ot light precipita- tion cultivated perennial hay and pasture crops yield comparatively entail returns. It is not our intention to give any detailed account of the ,various an- nuaa hay and pasture crops, that, are grown in the different pahts of the. Doneinion, We'Mutely wish to oh at- tention in a general way to their im- portance, the more as the indicaeleta aro that it may be in the farmers' in- terest to use annual hay and pastnre 4 MPS to a greater extent the coming beason than ever beeore. When% comes to the question of what,kinds of annual hay and pas- ture cropa are likely to prove moat profitable, we would first of all give this advice: Do not take n chance with crops that are not sufficiently Well knowit• Especially during the last few ears, a number of southern forage plants. have been widely advertised as gold mines for Canadian farmers. Then' wonderful yields and excellent qualities in general have been vividly described and, as a result, -quite an intereat has been taken in them. The forage plants referred to may be all weat they are claimed to be ia the south, but when they are grown as far north as Canada, their yielding *ewers are • generally' -mealy idisap- ttelitting. Some of them may nave sou.° value in certain very 'restricted lora.ities, and may be used for ano- de! purpoease but, generally speaking, their general useruiness is very lint- ftdd, . It is our opinien that, at present, we cannot afford.. to take any gamb- ling chances with crepe that we arc rot sure will prove successful. And really, there is no necessity for do- ing it, as there are a large number of annual crepe that are known to be excellent for pathure in Canada, Suf- fice it to mention that various grain cops may be used very successfully ar, supplementary hay and pasture clop, either alone or milted' with peas or vetches. For certain dis- tricts and under certain comlitions, varieties of millets may be used for hay, modally when spring sown crops for some reason or other have failed to cateh eatietactorily, and, ite a potture crop, rape is one of the nicot maga:ago anneal crops for an round „purpose.% In easein aaileh there is some doubt as to what kind of annual hay or paethre erops is likely to give the btst restaltshrander certain conditions, and for certain perpottes, please write Central Experimental isartn, Ottawa, or the neereet Dominion Experimental Sta tion.

Twenty minutes later a taxicab dashed up to. the Jones house and out jumped Jones. "What's theematter, old man?" ask- ed a kindly dienosed neighbor, "Forget your railroad ticket?" "No," answered Jones, showing symptoms of peevishness. "My wife left a kettle of water boiling on the gas stove. Didn't think of it until, we reached the station. You can always depend on a woman to have a Mem- ory like that." • So saying, Jones unlocked the door and hastened into the house. In about two Minutes he came out again with his features puckered into a peculiar twist. "How did you find it?" cheerfully asked the neighbor.

A. College regarding the new rOgulation from the Canada Food Board with reference to the manufac- ture of ice create., and also as to methods of testing ice cream for fat. Ordee No. 34, section 8, issued by the Canada, Food Board reads: "On and after May 1, 1918, no parson in Canada shalt use in the manufacture Of ice cream more than ei) Per centum of fats, whether of animal or of vege- table origin, or more than six pounde of cane sugar to eight gallonseef ice cream." As a result of recent investigations made in the Dairy Department of the 0. A. College by Messrs. McMillen, Parfitt and Mies Millar, of the dairy staff, we can recommend the following formula or reap° for a batch or mix which willproduce about eight gal- lons of plain Ice cream of good qual- ity and whiclt will come within the regulations as laid down by the Food Board: 441/2 lbs. (41/2 ,gallons) cream testing 15 per cent. fat. 11/2 lbs. skirarnilit powder. 6 lbs. cane sagar-s11/2 lbs. sugar may be replaeed with 2 lb. corn syrup. 4 ounces vanilla extract, 8 ounces gelatine dissolved in 6 lbs.' (half gallon) skinimilk. The cost of. the ingredients in this formula will range front 53 to 67 centtt buying in small quantities. If bought wholesa/e, theNoat would be less. If whole milk 'and cream are used, mixing equal quantities of these will produce an ice cream testing at over 10 per cent. fat, assuming that the milk and cream are of average fat content -3'.5 and 18'10 20 per cent, fat, respectigthy.

F. Ransom, R.A.F.) ....-... . The beauties of the old earth take a quite new guise for the navigator's of the air, and strange and fascinating are the charms revealed to those who, at al hours of day and night, study our world from amidst and above the clouds. These men are adventurers and pioneers tato new realms of beauty. They feel that these vast spaces havo never been visited before by mortal man, and when airmen aro as com- municative as they are daring there may be strange surprises both for the students of psychology among them and the creative artiste,. rhis was rather crudely, but quite expressively suggested by the Orman who, speak- ing of a certain cloud effect, declared that ht made hint think of the Book of Revelation! However lonely and remote some mountain peak, or southern Isle may, be, there is always the possibility that a primitive man has once trodden them, but no geologist or student of earth's beginnings can point to to thne when the sky adventurer enuld watch rolling seas of clouds from 15,000 feet above the haunts ot men.. The pathway to the sun, the tunnels in the clouds, the exquisite colorings awl the extra- ordinary sense of peace can be reel- ised and dreamed about, but no one yet has been able to interpret any of these things to another as the tomtit of actual vision. Hereafter air travel in cloudland may well give a fresh impulse to the Royal Academy. "Sky-scapes would at least mark a welcome change from the uninteresting period of portraits -- similarly an aeroplane load of creat- ive poets might be despatched on a special mission to the clouds. How Shelley, the w3nder0ul poet of the clouds, would have loved flying! It .is a significant fact that the alt' changes a man.
