Everything must therefore, be in readiness for the coming of the new crop. Ewes heavy’ in lamb require more pen and' feeding space, if overcrowd­ ing and losses are to be avoided. Two feet of feeding space is the minimum required. Large flocks should be divided by putting the ewes expected to lamb first in the warmest and most com­ fortable pen, Have the floor level, dry, clean and well bedded. If possible provide equipment for making individual lambing pens. Folding hurdles are very handy for that purpose. The ewe is much quieter if kept alone.

ADAMS FLOUR FEED Seed cleaning plants are busy in Ox­ ford, but the general quality of grain is below that of 1935. Northumber­ land expects that the tomato acreage I towill be doubled and that devoted canning peas and corn increased. An Evergreen Windbreak For Farm Buildings (By I. C. Marritt) Most farmers would be pleased if there was an evergreen windbreak near their buildings as it improves living conditions by breaking the high cold snqw of winter and by reducing snow drifting around buildings and along roads. It improves the land­ scape as it gives a setting to the building and screen undesirable views, Many farmers have fine windbreaks that have been planted 30 to 50 years and others have started windbreaks within the past fiften years with the trees that have been distributed free by the Forestry Branch. But there are at least 75% of the farms where no start has been made. Why don’t more farmers plant windbreaks? The principal reason is that a windbreak cannot be secured in a short period as it takes 10-30 years to Many farmers will be on farm fifteen years hence will not be a windbreak1 is not started soon. The windbreak may be one i ow or several rows. The one of several rows is a much better windbreak and should be planted if possible. Many have planted a single row with the mistaken idea that two rows require double the area. This is not correct because seven rows six feet apart only take up double the width of spruce 30-40 years old has a spread of 30-40 feet. Frocks For Gala.

Repair of Machinery Careful repairing of tillage machin­ ery each winter or early spring with replacement of doubtful or worn parts has been proven to paj' large divi­ dends by preventing major costly re­ pairs. Tillage implements generally receive less care and more hard knocks than any other class of farm machinery. The value of any implement can only be measured by its usefulness in acres covered, quality of work done and freedom from the necessity of costly repairs and delays. Delays due to breakdowns during the rush tillage season of spring and summer are costly and easily prevented if the farmer, with a few tools and a little time, will check over carefully every working or wearing part long before he is going to use the machine. Check over every machine care­ fully for loose, worn or stripped bolts and replace broken spring washers and check all loose or slack parts. Wheel and power lift bearings, disk boxings and all moving parts should be adjusted for wear. Clean all work­ ing parts of old grease, oil, dirt and steel particles with kerosene and re­ place with plenty of fresh lubricants.

Need' Green Feed in Winter The average farm poultry flock 35 hens requires approximately one- half acre of greens if the proper a- mount of green feed during the winter months is provided. As soon as mois­ ture is available to germinate rye, oats or wheat, the planting of either one of or all three of these grains to furnish greens for the laying flock during the fall and winter, months is advisable. Green feed is high in vitamins, minerals and proteins, three essential nutrients of a poultry ration, and it serves as a conditioner, as,well as being high in nutrients.,No other one thing will pay as large dividends for the amount of money invested as an adequate acreage of green feed for the’ poultry flock. of 133 s DOMINION > z STORES ••• LIMITED ick in the said Township of Howick containing Two acres and one-half of an acre more or less as laid down on a registered plan of said Village bv Wm.

Current Farm Reports Grey County auctioneers report that proceeds of auction Sales this year arc about 25% better than a year ago. Cash paymentes by pur­ chasers are also higher. There is a keen demand for livestock there and good horses are bringing attractive prices. Huron reports that feeders of market cattle are disappointed with present prices and some are holding back their shipments. North Simcoe, in common with many other districts has been heavily snowbound, a fact which enhances prospects for wheat and clover. A shortage of experienc­ ed farm help is. anticipated there, a condition which seems quite general. Work horses are indemand in Lamb­ ton county, prices ranging from $90 to $150. In Middlesex there have been complaints of serious injury to orch­ ards by mice and rabbits. It is not anticipated that there will be more than a small percentage of fruit buds and peaches winter killed in Lincoln. CARD OF THANKS Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Gallaher and family wish to express their sincere thanks and appreciation for the sym­ pathy and kindnesses extended to them during their recent sad bereave­ ment. t i IN MEMORIAM ROBERTSON—In loving memory of Clifford Robertson, who passed away March 30th, 1935.
