The Advocate Ls going to make a

ihi 1.10, bice ai,lethose who are years
back this one chance to pay up, and.
th,enl it will net be our fault if some
are asked to pay $2.00 per year, and
perhaps some costs. We know it is
simply neglect on the part of many -
but we cannot live on neglect.

HANDLING THE HARROW
An implement Often 'Neglected
By Farmers:
Smoothing, Disc, and Spring Tooth
Harrows Described -Beep the
Bolts . Tight . and the 'Wearing
Part's Clean—The _ Implement
Shed.
(Contributed by Ontario Department of
Agriculture, Toronto.)
The iron smoothing harrow, being
a rather clumsy implement to handle,
is apt to be neglected. to the extent
of bolts working loose and teeth fall-
ing out. A small wrench should al-
ways be at hand, preferably strapped
to the adjusting., lever, with which
all bolts could be'tightened and kept
ba proper adjustment. The teeth.
should be kept sharpened if the liar-
row is to do its best work with the
least, expenditure of horse or tractor
labor. The harrow sections should'
be tested for uniformity of set fre-
quently, by. lining up, the teeth and
seeing that all are cutting the same
depth. Long, short, crookedor dull
teeth reduce the efficiency of this im-
plement. When not in use the har-
row should be piled in sections out
of harm's way. In storing away after
seeding it is a good practice to daub
a little machine oil or grease on the.
bright portion of each tooth, using
a brush or cloth to do so. If any
parts, such as bolts. or teeth, have
been lost, make note of it on a card,
tying the card•to the section so that
repairs will be made before the har-
row is required for use again. The
rusty harrow tooth will ball up, col-
lecting grass roots and soil particles
in moist ground, reducing the effi-
ciency of the work. It pays well to
Beep the harrow teeth bright and
sharp" The place in the implement
shed for harrows where such will be
out of the way is up on the side
walls: Long pegs or spikes that will
hold two sections can be driven In the
studs or wall boarding, and the har-
row sections hung thereon high, dry.
and easy to -get when wanted.
This harrow generally suffers more
from neglect to oil than any other
farm implement. Lifting and drop-
ping the'soil on its own bearings, it
has been difficult for manufacturers
to make a bearing that is dust or
sand (roof. Frequent and careful
oiling right from the start is the only
practice that will save the bearings
of the 'disc. If the bearings become
loose or worn, the draft is greatly
increased and the work not as well
done. The oil can should always be
at hand and oil should i.e applied
every hour. A 16 -inch disc will turn
660 times an hour at ordinary field
speed with considerable pressure
from two directions on the bearings.
Oil can not be expected to last very
long, and it does not, so oh often or
your disc will squeak and the horse
tire. This implement must be kept
tight if it is to do its best work. The
\, re .ch should always be on hand
and used when needed. If the discs
i'.re f: ee from rust, well burnished
and smooth, they are not apt to clog.
The rusty disc may cause long delays
in the early spring. The discs should
be dry and clean when put away, and
a little rub with a soft cloth satur-
at , d with machine oil will keep the
wearing parts bright and always
ready for the field.
The Spring Tooth Harrow.
The spring tooth harrow is an
easier implement to keep in order
tn...i the disc harrow. With large
vhe.is twice a day oiling will suffice.
Tae keeping of the bolts tight and
_ie wearing surfaces clean and bright
r r ins principal needs leading to
.:ic_ant working of this implement.
.itt;eis points must be renewed or
saarpened when required. The wear-
ings'-parts should be kept bright and
clean; this is best done by going over
Liexu with a dry cloth and then fol-
lowing with an oil soaked one. The
moving parts in the elevating meth-
auisin require and should get suffi-
cient lubricant to keep them in condi-
tion to move freely. Both shelter
and painting when needed to protect
the iron and wood parts aid keep
the wheels tight are very essential
to long and useful life of this im-
plement. L. Stevenson, O. A. C.,

The Implement Stied.
Shelter for tbols and implements
is absolutely necessary during the
period when such ' are not in actual
use. Theweathering elements will
soon destroy the wood or metal used
•in•rplements, perhaps p not fast
enough to excite' the ii}dolert man
into . action, but nev'ertheless,: slow,
sure' and steadily the wood will de-
cay and the metal will rust, until the
implement becomes too,.weak.to stand
the strain of -use. A good roof over
a floor that is -always dry, and amply
large for the implement and tool'.
storage requirement of the farm is
all that is needed. A' palatial build-
ing is not*, needed., ,Posts set in.
cement,. a frame strong enough to
support, roof and wall is all that is
required if a special building must
be'erected-=L.•Stevenson, 0. A.

Orchard May Be. Pruned In Winter.
Fruit grower's do not need to wait
until spring to prune their orchards.
There is. little -or no difference in the
growth - and maturity of the wood
where pruning has been done any
time between .November and May.
If the usual care is taken to make
the cuts close to the main trunk or
branches, no.stubs will be left to die
and decay; though the covering of
wounds with a . white lead mid oil
paint or with common'grafting wax
warmed tothe consistency of cold
molasses will give added protection.
The boy and; girl, should be made
to see that they are a main factor in
the maintenance of a farm, find not
slave or servant to de little errands
for the parents.

This photograph of the Prince wits taken on his first visit to the Dominion. To the left Ls seen a picture
of his ranch, and above it is an interior view of one of the suites aboard tite Empress of I,'ranee, bottom right.
HIS Royal Highness the Prince et Wales s1,i1i for a
month or so become a simple Canadian rancher.
That he will travel incognito on his corning to Canada
does not mean that he will travel'in disguise but that he
will not take part in official functions or make official
visits, and when approached with regard to his stay in
the Canadian Dominion he has always stated that his
time `pill be fully taken up by the kiairs of the E. P.
ranch.
The Prince of Wales exhibits a deep and marked
interest in the ranch he purchased near Calgary on his
memorable tour of the Dominion, and his desire to visit
it is but a fresh indication of the importance he attaches
to it and the work it is doing. Immediately after pur-
chasing the ranch, and before returning to England, the
Prince made arrangements for the shipment of some of
the best stock in the British Isles to the Canadian West.
Thoroughbred horses came from the Royal stud, short-
horns from the King's farm, shropshire sheep from the
Duke of Westminster's estate, and hardy Dartmoor
ponies from the Devon moors. The latest importation
consisted of a thoroughbred stallion and four ,..ares
the finest obtainable in the British Isles. "Will Somers",
which heads the stud at the E. P. ranch is a handsotre
five year old weevil at three years was the winr,e: f
several English classics.
Phis the Prince has demonstrated that his purchase
of the ranch was not a matter of sentiment or com-
mercial profit, but a genuine desire to foster the breedilg
of better livestock in the West. His efforts have been
eminently successful. At all provincial exhibitions the
animals from the High river ranch are attractive features;
and last Fall, shorthorn cattle, constituting the first
commercial sales the ranch has effected, commanded top
prices.
Cattle from the E. P. exhibited at the stock show
at the Calgary' Stampede were heavy prize winners, and
sheep and horses from the same ranch created an un-
paralled standard.
The RoyaL rancher has planned to arrive at Quebec
on September 12th on the Canadian Pacific steamship
"Empress of France'. The palatial liner. 18,000 tons,
which was the flag ship of the 10th Cruiser Squadron on.
Northern patrol duty during the War is the most up-
to-date vessel of its type and is most suited to the ac
commodation of its distinguished passsa.ger. Recon-
ditioned after the war, this ship is one of the most
magnificent yet comfortable vess..ls in trans-Atlantic
service. It holds the record for oil. Its large and com-
fortable suites and cabins, spacious promenade derl•is,
numerous and ..xee+lently appointed public ruin:: .t :d

popular_ ships in the Canadian Pacific fleet.
