One of the reasons behind this movement is the alarm over cat- tlemen's disregard for vaccine - Lion. Ontario's Livestock Com- missioner, W, P. Watson, Said re- cently the total number of calves vaccinated 'has dropped to one- quarter of those raised. He in- dieated this left herds in very vulnerable positions, In a recent InterView, Dr, Wil- .liain Moynihan, of Toronto, warn- ed owners that they had once ex- perienced much trouble with con- tagious abortion and they should net wait for a:flare-up in4their herds before initiating a consist- ent program of 'vaccinations Remember Breakouts Farmers in this area can re- call when entire herds were wiped Out by brucellosis. Pessibility that, without con- trol, export markets might be af, fasted was noted recently by Dr. Lloyd Jones, Principal of Ontario Veterinary College. A brucellosis control program has been initiat- ed in the United States, he said, and, owners there might not look kindly ion the importation of cat- tle from areas where brucellosis had not been eradicated. Federation ,officials in this ar- ea are convinced the 'compulsory vaccination program is the only way to control the disease.. They feel'the majority of cattle owners will agree with the necessity of, the .program. Some of the regulations.' con- tained in the Brucellosis Act are outlined here: "Upon receipt' of a petition Save Grain For Seeding Farmers who are fortunate en- ough to. have •a supply, of. good seed grain on hand should save every 'bit of it for seed rather than .use any of it for feeding purposes during the winter sea, - son, says the Field Crops Branch, Ontario DepartMent of Agricul- ture. Due to extensive periods of dry weather in some sections eEtrly in the season followed by wet weath- er :over wide areas during and after the grain harvest, supplies of seed grain available will not be as plentiful as usual for seed- ing next spring. At present the price of feed oats and barley is considerably lower than the price asked for Commercial No. 1 ,Seed, yet seed of a known variety. and grade is good value. ,No farmer should take a chance in. using feed oats 'of an unknown source or variety of seed.. 'Grain intended for spring seed- ing should be carefully stored in a dry place this winter, and should be cleaned well in advance of the spring needs. Any question in re- spect to its germination can be settled either by ,means of a home test or by the testing of a Sample by the Plant Products Division Laboratories at Toronto, Ottawa or Winnipeg. There's a small fee involved if the laboratory does the testing but it represents a well -worthwhile investment, .A. survey of Iseed supplies av- ailable is now 'being made, and a. complete list of seed for sale by 'growers in the Province will be available 'within the next couple of weeks.

E. Beacom, Animal and Poultry Husbandman. Measured in terms of ehonomy of feed use, the benefit from anti- biotics was less pronounced. In general, the antibiotic -fed lots required less feed per pound ot, gain than the control lotS„ es- pecially during the 'growing per- iod, but in terms of feed cost per pound of gain, less than half of the antibiotic -fed lots showed lower feed costs' than the ,control lots. The basal rations used were made up ef oats and barley. This was supplemented with meat meal, linseed oil meal, alfalfa meal, limestone and, salt. ,and balanced according to Morrison's feeding standards for botk the growing and finishing periods. During the growing period (until the pigs averaged 125 pounds in weight) pilchardine oil was also fed. Showed Increase ' In five of the six trials the lots receiving antibiotics showed a marked increase in rate of gain during the 'growing period, In the other trial two lots gained at the same rate as the control lot and the remaining lots gained at from 2 to 8 per cent faster. During the finishing period pigs receiving antibiotics outgained the control pigs in four of the six trials while results in the other two trials were variable. During the growing period, either level of aureomycin or ter - ramycin produced an the average more rapid gains than any of the penicillin levels. The higher Level of penicillin compared favourably with the best of the other lots when the whole feeding period was taken into consideration. Nineteen of the 25 antibiotic - fed lots of pigs required, less feed to put on a pound gain during the growing period than the lots fed the respective control rations. However, during the finishing period 17 of the 25 lots required leas feed per pound of gain than the respective control lots, For the whole feeding period 21 of the 25 lets required less feed per pound gain than the re- spective control lots, When the feed cost (including cost of antibiotics) is considered, only 10 of the 25 antibiotic -fed lots gained mere economically than did their respective control lots during the growing period. Nine of the antibiotic -led' lots gained more economically than the respective control lets during the finishing period while for the entire growing - fattening period 10 Iota gained more economically than the Control lots. It must be emphasized hoWever, that this cost figure does not include any charges Other than feed and anti- biOticS...Since 28 of the 25 anti- blotic-fed lots gained. faster than did their respective control lots over the whole feeding period there was a 'saving in labour which should be taken into its- etnint when the economics Of feeding antibiotics is being eon- sidered." Manufacturers Ahead The foregding is as we say a Very comprehensive report but all. the commercial feed and eon- centrates Manufacturers haVe been using even more advanced research in antibidtics for the past several years. We trust that prittitte enterprise will continue their rtattearob into ways and meansOf Aster and Oeaper gains, ' We feel that government re- Seareh reeding trim results are tied hand'atid foot by red taPe. A very specific example IS the new "hormone feeds" or beef cattle now being Marketed in nearly all sections Of the United States. Down to Earth By D. L HOOPER Than Never Ttist how long before the Can- adian Government wakes lip to the fact that we could use more of 'this type of extra profits here, is perhaps shown by the tardi- ness of their research into the antibiotic field. Or is it just Government policy not to tell the people, whopay the bills, and ,are most vitally concerned, just what type of re- search is being carried out for their benefit.
