Nearly three hundred varieties ot wint-
er -wheat and many selections and crosses
have been grown under experiment at
the Agricultural College within the past
tWenty-nine years. Nearly all of the var-
ieties have been carefully tested in each
of five years after which the inferior
kinds have been discarded and those
Which have given the beat results have
been continued In the experiment. Of the
named varieties fourteen have been
grown In each of twenty-two years anti
the result of these are of special value.
The following table gives for eech ot
these fourteen varieties the average
weight per 'measured bushel for twenty-
one years, and the average yield et grain
per acre for the twenty-two year period:

The Dawson's Golden Chaff is still the
most extensively grown variety of winter
wheat in Ontario, according tet infor-
mation secured through correspondence
with practical farmers. This variety.
lti the Tesults at Guelph for twenty-two
yea.ree has gIven an annual average
yield of -gra it per acre of exactly three -
bushels over the next highest variety,
and oe practically of nine bushels per -
acre over •the lowest yielder of the four-
teen varieties included In the test, all of
which were grown under similar con-
ditions. The Dawson's Golden Chaff was
originated in Ontario thirty-seven years
ago. et produces a very sttff straw uf
medium length,ebeardless heads with red
chaff, and white grain which weighs
about the standard per measured bushel.

Chaff is, improving slIghtly for bread

PUKWANA CLUDS' JOY -RIDE
On Noveniner second the Pultwana

Had planned for a walk in the usual
way,
To meet In the eastend at half -past

Then visit Van Wagner's and Stoney

Our 13luebird "Chimaltis" had a very
- fine car,
She is not strong on hikes, esPecialin

So she called up Lite& in Oder to
know
How many Pukwanas she was certain
would go.
On learning Owes seven, she hollered
"Hurray!
I can take you all in. Now, lvhat do
YOU say?"
Litani made newer, "Why that would
be great.
Are you Imre with an many the car
will not break?"
So thus it wee settled, and inowe all
packed,
Ahd at packing, Pukwanas 'have got
quite a knack;
To Van Wagner's, and then • away
'cross the Beach,
The ear hummed seong. "Oh, say,
she's a peach."
And then out the highway. (1 don't
know how far),
We sped on and on withottt the least
jar.
One stop we madt
e than must not for-
get,
'Twee when seine girls selling apples,
we met.
We nil got out and their apInee we
bought.
And we fully agreed that they bit the
right spot.
Soon after this we nulled the car
'round,
For it was really quite time to be
homeward bound.
Chin -talus, stilt anxious to lengthen
our glee,
Invited us to her home to have tel.
We sure had some appetites after that
ride,
And the good things before us soon
travelled inside.
Wbert each ono declared she was fun

We moved to the patter and aet'exp a

Tho Sonora supplied us with music so
fine,
We just had to keep our feet going in
time.

NERVOUS ARVIN'S
Petit people realize that nervous ail-

bles. The etomech fella, for some rea-
son, to digeet food properly. Then the
eystem langueshes and the nervea be-
rorne in striving to continue
their work, Impure blood also causes
nerve troubles, but frequently it is in
the stomach where the miettnef starts.
As the nourishment is carried to the
nerves by the blood, it will be seen
what an important connection exists
'between the stomach, the nerves and
the blood, and how such troubles as
nervous headaches, nervous dyspepsia
and insomnia may begin.

nerves thrive; at the same time they
exercise a tonic intluence on the di-

BUTTERMILK POR POULTRY
PEED.
(By William Walden Shaw, Jenkin-
town, Pa.)
Buttermilk, once thrown aside as a
by-product of no value, has come into
its own, and is now recognized as a
food product of great value. The reall-
zatical of this fact has been gaining
ground for a long time, and the ex-
. periments and investigations have
; been both interesting and instructive,
• The lactic acid, folind Only in butter -
i milk, is very helpful to the digestive
•processen and helps to neutralize
: the poisonous acids and gas caused
by the reaction Of indigestion.
- Indigestion is effected by the action
of carbohydrates on. protein. Assimila-
- tion -18 the process of absorption
• through the cella of the dikestive
tracts. This action cannot take place
without the essential minerals ot the
body, such as calcium One iele

etc, The lactic acat et ma-.
assintilation and assists In Ilberating
these minerals. In other words, while
protein and carbohydrates 'undergo
digestion in the stomach, the stom-
a-ek is assisted by the buttermilk to
Initiate necessary chemieal changes
that prepare the food for more vtg-
orous action in the intestines. leue
termitic also acts as a general distr.-
fectant ot the alimentary eanal.
In a certain seetion of Switzerland
it is nothing unconnuen to find, pee-
rle who live beyond the century mark,
faveatigations as to the came of this
longevity developed the fact that
these people consumed great quaint -
ties. or rather, regular amounts- of
buttermilk as a drink, in soup and la
their baking. Knowing that buttermilk
:s such a help in aidiiig aesitrillation,
and also as an internal disinfectant,
it ig readily understood why these
Swigs people live to suck a ripe old
age.
One of the Most distouraging fea-
tures of the poultry business has been
the great loss of chicks caused by
bowel trouble, inoin of which has been
labeled "white diarrhoea," The Con-
necticut Agricultural College has
done More experimenting in regard to
this disease than any other institution
After several years of eXperimentinn
it was found that the lactic told in
buttertnifit did one of two thlrige--
either tho lactic acid haeilli killed the
white diarrhoea bacteria or it built
