It alwaYe seeme that there is some-
thing even more wonderful and subtle

Chionodoxa, or gdory-of-the-snow, is
also well worthy of our attention, its

April, or soon after the snow is g`one.
The variety luciliae, having blue flow-
ers with a white centre, is the best

be airanged in clumps towards the

11,Iustard increases egg production.
Poultry raisers who have experiment-
ed with pure mustard as a helpful
stimulant and tonic, have also proven
that the use of mustard actually in-
creases egg production during the
winter without in any way injuring
the health of the hen, or shortening its
life.
A. teaspoonful of mustard 'added to
the daily. rations of hens during the
slack season lief only brings up the
egg production, but keeps the birds

Sunflower Silege in Northern'
Ontario.
Teets in Northern Ontario to deter-
mine the value of sunflowers for en-
silage purposes have, so far, indicated
that this. crop is of great value. Sun-
flowers have proved to be frost re-
sistant and have yielded more tonnage
than corn. Sunflower ensilage has
given excellent results in feeding tests
and is now considered a standard en-
silage crop in Northern Ontario. Last
year at the Dominion Experimental
Station, Kapuskasing, Ontario, seven
varieties ,of sunflowers were seeded
May 29, Oil' land previously in clover,
and which has been rnanured at a rate
of 15 tons per acre. Seeding was done
in rows thirty inches apart and the
plants, when up, thinned to six inches
apart in the row. All varieties wer'e
harvested .September ,19, the Mani -
moth Russian producing the greatest
yield. Mr. Ballantyne, the Superin-
tendent, reports that the Mainmoth
Russian is well suited for the district.
Whilst the aeason is generally too
short for this variety to reach matur-
ity, it yields well and does reach suffi-
cient maturity to make first class
ensilage. .
Early Ottawa 76, a much earlier
variety than Mammoth Russian also
gave a good yield last yedia Mixed
Mennonite, a variety from the Ros-
then District, in Saskatchewan, was
the earliest variety tested but did not
yield as well as the Mammoth Russian.
Four varieties of ensilage corn were
also tested' at Kapuskasing but June
frost interfered with the crop and
yields were low..

intendent of the Kapuskasing Station

Says to him:

That'd give that livestock show a jolt!
And it beats my time to see a prize
Tied on to a pig that's got no size!"
So, Finnegan passed from pen to pen,
Pronouncing his views with 'a loud

And I says to him:
"I'll call your bluff?
