The members of the Ontario Agricul-

to state that for 1905 they aro prepared -
to distribute into every Township of
Ontario material for experiments with
fodder crops, roots, grains, grasses,
clovers and fertilizers. Upwards of
1,600 varieties of farm crops have been
tested in the Experimental Department
of the Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph, for at least five years in succes-
sion, These consist of nearly all the
Canadian sorts and several hundred new
varieties, some of which have done ex-
ceedingly+' Well in the carefully conduct-
ed experiments at the College and are

of the wall is finished in hard pine-
and varnished, The stalls are fltte&
up to accommodate 80 cows. They
are constructed of gaspipe imbedded
in the cement floor, the upper space
being fitted with 2 -inch netting made
of No. 9 wire. The objects in view in
the stall construction were to have
as little material as possible for the
necessary protection of the animnals
and at the same time to economize
';pace. The animals are fed from gal-
vanized troughs, 14 inches wide, ex-
tending across the front of the
stalls, a strip 18 inches wide.
The manure is handled with care
ricrs running on an overhead track
between the stalls. It is taken direct
to the fields anti spread at once, or
as soon as the ground can be tra-
versed. Cows are tied with a single
rope. The other wing, 60x27 ieet,-has
a, clay floor and is sealed through-
out. It is divided into box stalls
built of oak, two of which are solid
and high, being used for bulls or sick ..
animals. The remainder are made of
oak palings 4 feet high and fitted
with stanchions for holding calvere
while they are being fed. The system
of ventilation, as shown in the
drawing, has been worked out with.

Applying 111auure*
The: two mistakes most frequently •
met with in spreading manure are
that the applications arc too heavy)
and it is not pulverized finely enough,.
says The American Agriculturist. I
have seen many loads thrown out on
the ground in large chunks, some the
size of a man's head and from three
to five feet apart. I .cannot imagine
a worse way. Manure should be pul-
verized and applied evenly, The
amount to be used will depend on
the kind of soil, the crop to be rais-
ed and the quality of the fertilizer,
CIay soils, for instance, will retain
the strength of the manure for sev-
eral years, while a (sandy soil will
lose all the !benefit in one year.
Therefore on sandy soils I use man-
ure sparingly. On corn land, witb.
the right kind of soil, there is no
danger of too heavy applications, but.
on small grain a heavy coating will
often cause it to fall. When sowing
grass seed on grain land I sow be -
tore the manure is spread. In this
way I am sure of a good stand of
grass.

Preserve the Wood Lot.
A wood lot that will furnish plenty
of fuel for home use and where there
is sufficient growing timber for the
lumber that will be needed for re-
pairs or the erection of new buildings
is a valuable part of the farm and
should be highly prized and judi--
,eiously cared for by the owner. It does
not rquire a very large area of
thrifty woodland to afford a. plenti-
ful
lentiful supply for the household. By
careful management there should he
a sufficient amount afforded each year
without detracting from the value •02
the lot, as thele will usually be trees
that aro past their maturity or dead
and that should be removed to give
Place to a young and thrifty growth
that will soon mals its appearance.-

There are three elements in the cost
of producing beef, says Henry Wal-

the steer; second, the cost of trtans-

the cost of selling hits when on the
market. The first element of cost has
increased and is increasing ver,V
