"Last Sunday week." be writes, "about 6 p.m.., a shell (coal boxes we call theta) eight inches wide and four feet long, passed through the roof and side wall of a barn in which the bearers sleep, and fell into the grounds of the hospital; but, thank God, it didn't explode. "Strange to relate, the subject of the service was ';oracles,' and this was one of the greatest, for had it come a little later utero would t7nvo been several of us having food and rest la the barn.

These Operations Not Dangerous It Carefully Done -Row to Do the work Roth May Be Done at the Same gime, (contributed by Ontario Department o2 Agriculture, Toronto,). >RY substantial benefits arise from the early castration ox lambs. First, they make more weight at an earlier age -castrated lambs are more quiet, and so ina4€e better gains, Second, they are more easily ntb,naged-boat e exes may run together at all tithes without the danger that the females will be bred. Third, early eastration sults in the production :of a better carcass, as it prevents undue de- velopnncnt of the head, neck, and the front quarters. As stated before, buy- ers .veverely discount uneastrated lanais to an extent ranging from $2 to 83 per hundred pounds in coin- parison with castrated and docked Jambe of the sante age. Castration is not dangerous if tittle care is taken, and can be per- formed by any careful person who will follow directions. Lambs should lac. castrated when they are from 7 to 14 days old. Choose a bright day; 4o not e;7r tr;ata; lambs on a damp, letily, or rainy day. Select from the flock all lambs that are to be cas- trated and fence- theta off so that her can be caught without unglue :-xeitennent. Never worry or chase lambs before performing the +Speer'- eetiou, Frovidee a clean stall or pen for then, to go back to after the operation is performed. The epEr- ator'ti bands must be clean and 117c° knife disinfected. The lamb should be held ag.;inet the body. Cut off one-third of the lower en,t of the snot tun. or bag.: o tee to permit good drainage. Then expoee the testia•les, and with the left hand forte* them out, holding them in tills poaation by a Britt grip between e n thele thumb and fingers, which are h 1dl eeles: to they 'abdomen of the Iamb. Next, grasp the teeticeles firm- ly between the thumb and fingers of the right hand, and draw them out with the adhering eords. The :work should be done quickly but not roughly, and the testicles and adher- ing cords slioidd be drawn out with a --ready hull. The wound ,:Mould hien lei washed with a good a ntii optic, .zrlr rte u. weak carbolic ::glutton, or a erealin or lysnl preparation. When lambs are older titan three t eclts before the operation is per- tot'uud the cords should not be pull - ;1 out but rt:r;aped off with, as knife b:e.clt of they ttestIe1e. The scraping is Ilene to prevent excessive bleeding. Lambs sliould be kept quiet after t1eey have been castrated. It is best to perform the operation in the morn- ing, so that theee (tart be watehed dur- ing the day and attention given any find become too weak from Toes of blood. Ltunbs can b' flocked at the salve time, that they are castrated. When care is used both operations can be p<'rormed at the same time and labor saved, as the lambs will have to be caught only once. It should be a uniform practice to dock when the lambs are from 7 to 14 days old, The lamb's tail renders no eubstan- slel benefit to the animal. Its pres- nce is injurious because of the filth teat ,.ceuihulates around. and. -beneath it. Moreover, lambs are more attrac- tive and lookneater and deeper in the leg and twist if the tail is docked. When the tails are left on females they are apt to fail to breed. The two preferable ways of remov- ing a lamb's tail are by using a sharp knife or the docking irons. One men holds the lamb while the other performs ,the operation.. When docking with the knife the operator, by feeling on the inside of the tail, first locates 'the joint to 'be cut, which is about 1 ta. inches from the body. He should then push the skin on, the tail, back towards the body of take l`ambso as to leave some surplus skin .to grow over the stub. The cut should be made quickly with a sharp knife. '1f any lamb should, bleed too much a pfece of cord may he. tied very tightly on the stub of pile tail close to the body, to stop the ,bleeding, but the cord must bere- tnoved'yin a' few hours or the tail will slot off., Yr i n, j t t, pi cer's of flocking irons ere 5'eda;' cr'danger feared from loss of blood. Old sheep can be docked successfully in this way. The pincers should be heated to a cherry - red heat, not. hotter, and the tail - seared off at from 1 to 1 inches from the body. The wound will be seared over and no blood lost. When the irons are used at proper'tem- perature the wound will heal satis- factorily, but probably not so quickly as :when the knife Is used. The Wound is also sterilized and needs no further attention. When the lambs are in a peri 'near at hand, with : one than to catch them and another to hold them, from 9 • to 12 lambs can be docked without heating the irons again. The lambs should be watched for a few days to see that they are recovering from the operations satis- factorily. -Condensed from U. S. Farmers' Bulletin. No. 113 4. i A Good Lawn.,.` .

Retains all the flavor and color of ripe strawberries ---and makes two-thirds more jam from the same amount of fruit For a spread on hot biscuits or toast strawberry jam has . few equals. Its sweet, delicious fla- vor makes children of us all. A new and very revolutionary method has now been discovered by which anyone can make a far better quality quickly and very economically. With the Certo process full -ripe strawberries are used and only three minutes' boil- ing is required -not the 30 or more minutes so necessary by the old method. The result is a far superior fruity flavor and two- thirds more product from the same amount of fruit because no juice is boiled away. Best of all, the taste of fresh strawberries- the kind you picked in childhood in the old berry patch down by the woods -is now actually pre- served for the dead of winter. The Certo Process banishes all guess -work or worry, as perfect results are certain The new Certs, 13'rocess' ' for' making . Strawberry Jam is weir'' .,simple: ` I 4 > level . cups = 2, lbs.). Pr'essed' ,'Berries and,.Lei ton Juice, 7% leveled cups (314 lbs) Sugar, glia bottle (scant ee, cup) Certo. Select " only small or medium - steed, fully ripened, berries. Spread berries on their sides in single layer on flat plate and gently press each berry nearly flat with bottom . of small bottle. (This leaves skins nearly intact, but ruptures fruit inside and makes it hollow, allowing boiling sugar to saturate tissues quick- ly.) Add juice of one lepton. Have sugar measured • in saucepan. Measure berries and juice into large kettle, placing layer of sugar over each cup of berries and balance of sugar on top. .Allow to stand over night, so that part of sugar will be dissolved, and mixture can be stirred and•cooke i without crushing fruit. Stir con: stantly and bring to a vigorous boil over the hottest. fire. Boil hard for 3 minutes.' with con- tinual stirring. Remove from fire and add CERTO, stirring it in well. Skim at once and pour quickly within five minutes from removal from' fire, 'Reedit is about. 1.1 half -pound glasses of delicious, strawberry ',am for. about 7 cents; per glass.• The former uess-work ox - worry df making jam or jelly is' now .past. The' Certo Process is endorsed by goV_ernirlent at -Cheri - ties ;and cooking exlrert`s; :it' in- sures perfect results " �vith'every batch. It is also 'Seng 'economical," requiring only a few minutes' boiling and thereby making- two- thirds more jam or jelly t'e'n the old method. It also makes all kinds of jam or jelly, some you have never tasted before, like cherry jelly aed rhubarb jam, or unusual combinations like straw- berry and pineapple, etc. Hun- dreds of Canadian housewives with no Kittle pride are exhibiting the new flavors and better qual- ity of jams and jellies made 'with. Nrto. Certo is absolutely pure -con- tains no gelatine or preservative, It . is. Mother Nature's jell- maker."
