(Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture,- Toronto.) HE PLANTING of commes4e .tial apple orebards in the Province of Ontario is high- ly desirable for several rea softs: - 1. Ontario isnot producing enough good apples for home supply; but im- ports annually from Nova : Scotia, British Columbia, Washington, Ore- gon and. California. 2. Production in Ontario is likely. to falhpff still more -because no com- mercial planting is being done. Very few commercial apple orchards have been set out in this province since 1911._ 3. Of the thousands of young trees set in the bloom years of 1905 to 1911 a large proportion have already passed out of existence. Probably not more than 20',p.c. of the trees plant-' ed during those years will figure in the commercial production of the fu- ture, and certainly not more than 40 p.c. of them are 'alive and receiving attention to -day, 4. The home orchard will never again bean important factor in com- mercial apple production in this pro- vince, because it is not large enough to be worth while. In seasons when scab control is dsficult or when prices are down because of a heavy crop, the return from the small orchards is not large enough to justify the ex- pense and risk involved. When con- ditions are unfavorable the small or- chard passes quickly. into a state of neglect; this is why' apple growing in 'Ontario is at sucb low ebb at present. 5. Fruit is an essential part of diet. While it is true that in case of ne- cessity people can live witi ut it. it is also true that health suffers and nutritional complaints become much more general in the absence from the dietary of fresh fruits and vegetables. The apple is the most important and most useful fruit of the temperate zone and, from the standpoint of pub= lie health its culture` should not be neglected.—Prof. J. W. Crow, On- tario. Agricultural College, Guelph. Care of Pregnant Mares. The pregnant mare should bewell fed, and given regular'` exercise or, !fight work. All food and water given should- be of first-class quality.. She should he given more grain than the non -pregnant mare, as she has hef foetus to support: All possible care snou+i be observed' to avoid digestive detangements; hence everything con- sumed should be of good quality, cos- ily digested, fed in proportion tc the amount of work performed ani at regular intervals. In addition to hay and oats, she should' be given a few raw roots daily, and a feed of bran with a cupful of linseed meal, at Least twice weekly. Work that requires excessive mus- eular or respiratory effort should be ;voided, i so also should plunging through deep snow, slipping, etc. All nervous excitement should be avoid- ed, so also _should sights which frighten her, also offensive odors and operations. The use of drugs should not he ,tolerated, exept upon the advice of a veterinarian, 1f necessary to give a purgative it is .much safer to give raw linseed oil than aloes. Towards. ' he end of pregnancy -still greater care should baeobserved,.and, while daily exercise up to the very last is advisable, ' it should be given more carefully and less of 'it when she be- comes somewhat clumsy on account of size and weight. While itis better to allow her a box stall when in the stable at all times, it is practically necessary _af- ter about the tenth month of gesta- tion, as the period of gestation • is irregular and the foal may be born, without any well -marked premone- tary symptoms, any time after ten months. After the foal is born the mare should be given at least two weeks idleness, and if she can be allowed Le run idleuntil weaning time, it will, be all the better for both herself and Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph.:' • Vacant Lot Gardening. • The majority of the ; horticultural' societies in this province have accom plisiied great thirige with their vacant lot propaganda. Int the cities of To- ronto ' and o-ronto'and Ottawa alone many acres', nave been, cultivated. Ottaw reports over 100 acres- from which 50,000 bushels of valuable garden products have been garnered in first-class con- dition. Those interested in horticul- ture in Toronto through the Vacant,. Lot Gardening. Association 'have also done a splendid work and in a large way. The report issued by the super- intendent, Mr: Geo. Baldwin, states: Number of lots under cultivation dur- ing 1917, 798, , all well eultivated. Number of soldiers and soldiers' revei- lles working lots, 80. Average size of lots 3,000 square feet, all marked with sign board. Package of seeds provided -'725, of which, 607 were paid for. Several churches, ' ftospitals;•'' homes, girl guides, boy scotiase included in lot ecaderse One, lot'leaked after by a rets"roes soldier who lost both his legs, another by a naan'witb .only one htind ,The condition of both these lots' •would ;shame those who tire not thus' seriously handicapped.

Necessary Farm Equi.ment and more the Ford car is looked MORE upon by progressive farmers as neces- Yfarmequipment, sur e ui ment, the same as the q p plow, the hay -rake, the drill, the mower, the arow and other labor and time saving machinery. A. farmer with a Ford car can dispense with one or two of his horses and make the trips to town, railway station, creamery, or to the neigh- bours in ane -third the time. Li fact there is no farm machine made that will save the busy farmer and Iiia busy wife so much valuable timo as a Ford.: Andit's so easy to take care of—far easier tha n a horse. No bed to bake, or hay and oats to et, no harnessing and unharnessing, and . no`stab'les to clean. The Ford praetically takes care of itself. Adak any farrier who owns a Ford if he would e'er again, try to g;et along without it. His answer will hasten your decision to own one.
