Vien, who has been appointed Railway Commissioner, in succession to Hon. W. B, Mantel, ie descended from an old French family, which settled in Quebec in 1699. He was born at Lauzon, Levis county, Que., in July 19, 1881, the son of Lieut. -Col. T. S. Viers, and his wife, Eugenie Martin. He received his education at Levis College, Levie, and Laval University, Quebec, later obtaining the degrees of B.A., L.L,L. Besides practising as an attorney and solicitor, he has been a director THOMAS VIEN, K. C. .of La Soleil Publishing Company, the Montreal -Quebec Realty Company, and Secretary for the Province of Quebec of the Bonne. Entente. He has been long connected with rnilitary affairs, having passed the military staff college at Kingston, and is at present Lieut. -Colonel and of- ficer commanding of the 6th regi- ment of the Canadian Artillery. Dur- ing the Great War he twice offered his servicer, to go overseas, first with the 171st Battalion and second with the 57th howitzer Battery, but both units were afterwards disbanded and sent as drafts.. Colonel Vien was first elected to the House of Commons for Lotbin- lere at the general elections in 1921. He was one of the promoters of the Bonne Entente and National unity :Movement, and an active member of the Quebec Civil Recruiting Associ- ation. He married, on February 22, 1916, Anna Dionne, daughter of Auguste Dionne, of Westmount, Que. Dcinging ticctr5 victory all along the line. The same old tactics are being re- peated this time in an endeavour to Create the impression that Mr. Meig- hen is coming back, In 1921, Liber- als and Progressives, though aiming at much the same objective, were fighting each other. Theresult was as indicated above. Today can any sane observer, sizing up the situation as it exists, and having regard to the relative union of Liberal sentiment throughout the country, have the slightest doubt as to what will be the result? When the elector reads the Conser- vative propaganda of what they are going to do this time he would be well advised to check it up against the like Maims advanced on the eve of the last election, By no stretch of ima- gination has the Tory outlook been substantially bettered or the prospects been made more favourable then when, despite their loud boasts four years ago, their rout was complete even to the extent of humilation." eeetuiee. r_lal •' U[ ,.l'. 1 :c,1„ u. l:b ..

Deluding the Electors of fiIp� ' L9JI$ ailosE ihly "In an election campaign party propaganda plays an influential part. --- If- - If the impression ran be created that a certain party is going to win, its chances of eatching the wavering vote are materially increased because there are always thousands of people who wish to be on the winning side.' Tn the present campaign Conserva- tive propaganda is particularlyactive. It is being claimed that they are going to sweep the Maritime Provin- ces; that they are going to carry twenty seats in Quebec (the number somehow is always fixed around twenty) ; that they will carry sixty or seventy seats in Ontario, about fifteen on the Prairies and ten in British Columbia. Let es see what they claimed In 1921 when the Conservative party went down to a disastrous defeat, On December 2011, from the headquarters of the Conservative party here in Ottawa, the following forecast of the election that was impending :four days later was issued. The reader will note the marked similarity bc- tween the claims made then and those that are being made now. The Con- servative statement broadcast all over the country told how the situa- tion had bettered steadily and prop ceederl: 'To -day the King forces in Quebec admit that there will be at least twelve Meighen supporters elected in that provinee. In ad- dition a strenuous fight is being carried on in aticast eighteen more ridings and of these there is every possibility of Meighen 'supporters carrying from six to ten' more, In any event, it is quite safe to pre - diet that Premier Meighen may count on at least fifteen supporters from Quebec, with a good possib- ility of from four to eight more. In Ontario many doubtful seats have during recent clays swung into the, safe Meighen column, There is now ample, ground to say that in Ontario, Meighen candido- tee will carry sixty seats, and pro- bably sixty—five nr seventy, All reports from the Prairie Pro vineee are very elltlmietic. There will be me solid fnrmr', bloc from that area. It is now practically captain that the: government will carry from sixteen to twenty•otie seats in the Prairies as well as 11 in British Colunrbta. to the Maritima Provinces. where there are thirty ridings, there ig every likelihood that this Govern- ment will carry at least fifteen or sixteen seats. What happened? in sire of the nine provinces the Cataervatives did not win a single seat. t'Itey got none itt (Renee, none ie Nova Scotia, none in irinee Edward Island, none in Manittibat nor Seslcatchowan not Al- bet'ta. And yet, as the ltoove state- tient shows, they were bousthtg Air The Hon. Raoul Dandurand, K,C., L.L.D., P.C., who has been elected President of the Assembly of the League of Nations, is well-known in the commercial and financial affairs of Canada, more especially in his nat ive city. of Montreal. He has never had a seat in the House of Commons but was summon- ed to the Senate in 1898 for the Delorimier division. He was Speak- er to the Upper House from 1905 to 1909, and upon the formation of the administration of the Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King he was appointed a member of the Cabinet without port- folio and Government leader in the Senate. He has been president of the Canadian T3ranoh of the Teter - parliamentary Pease Union since its inception in 1907. HON.

'dairy temperament" have thin necks, sharp withers, Prom- inent vertebrae, hips and pin bones; thin lneurviug thighs and a general body conformation that Is wedge- shaped no matter from what angle it is viewed. Dairy temperament is also associated with alertness, marked tee- tivtty, and lack of all coarseness In the aadlyldeal. Cows- with "feed capacity" show plentyof room or middle for the storage of reed, They are long and deep between the shoulder and the hip, long faces, wide foreheads, broad muzzle, and large jaw with full well- developed salivary glands, Cows with "constitution and vigor" are wide through the heart region, have a big strong heart, a strong cir- culation of blood to all parts of the body, This condition Is usually re- flected In the healthy condition of the hair, oily secretions of the hide and well-developed, prominent veins on the under side of the abdomen and on the udder, face and neck. Constitution and vigor is also shown in large bright eyes, large nostrils and a general alertness. Cows with "well-developed milk or- gans" can boast of the following characteristics: Udder well attached to the body and not pendulous. Udder tissue pliable and soft to the touch, free from coarseness, hard. areas or lumps. Udder of good size, extended well forward and high up behind, Large veins running from the an- terior attachment forward and well along the abdomen. The skin covering the udder is soft and pliable, teats are of a good size to till the hand and are evenly placed. Don't forget the producing dairy- man is not likely to sell his best cows.

High and Low Testing Milk Cour- pared With Mixed. Milk. The question has been raised as to whether milk with varying fat con- tent when mixed, as is done at the eheese factory, would give results that average between high and low testing lots made up separately, as Is done with experimental testing. Four tests were made by dividing lots of milk as delivered to the O,A.O, Dairy Department from fauns sur- rounding Guelph, between two vats, one of which tested high in fat and the other comparatively low, Each vat. contained 450 pounds of milk. From each 150 pounds were taken and mixed in a third vat. Altogether 1,200 pounds of intik were used in each lot. The average percentages of fat in the milk were 3,95, 3.27 and 3,59. The yields of cheese per 1,000 pounds of milk Here, respec- tively 102.6, 94.63 and 97.60. The theoretical yield of the mixed lots is 98.61 pounds of cheese which is within one pound of the actual. This difference Is accounted for by differ- ences in moisture content of the cheese, difference in shrinkage and In losses due to handling the milk, curd and cheese. The average scores of the cheese were 88.48, 86,61 and 88.74 respectively for high, Jow and maxed lots, indicating that in the opinion 01 the expert judge there was not much difference In the qual- ity of the cheese. Conclusion,—These tests show that mixed lots of milk c.'ntatning vary- ing percentages of fat are likely to yield cheese averaging fairly closely to what would be obtained if the lots were made separately into cheese. Sweet Clover Butter. The tests made in butter -making during 1024 with milk from cows pasturing on tweet clover was con- ducted with milk from farms where sweet clover was the only pasture. The butter was made to small lots in the Farm Dairy at the O. A. Col- lege and was seared by the Oficial Butter Grader for the Province, As In other years no flavor could be de- tected in the milk, cream or butter which might be attributed to sweet clover feeding, Five lots of butter were made altogether, one from raw create ehurned sweet, one from raw cream ripened with a culture, one ripened without culture, one from pasteurized Cream to which culture was added and then ripened, These conditions cover practically all that are likely to be met with on the farm or at the creamery The butter was held in ^o.1 storage for two months before it was waged, in order to allow any flavors to develop that might be present.

The ability to quickly splice a broken bay forts rape at the time when It is most needed will save hay, time and trouble. Rope Material. Rope Is made of various materials such as cotton, hemp, manilla OLre, lute and flax. The rope most fre- quently used on the farm is made from hemp, imported from Manilla. Common rope Is generally composed of three or four strand. The four - strand rope Is stronger than the three -strand of equal diameter. Strength of Manilla Rope.

The side splice is frequently useful where it is desired to Join two ropes or the same or different sizes. It is extensively used in halter making. This splice should always be made so that the pull is in the same direc- tion as the spliced in rope strands. Rope Halters. Rope halters of various types and sizes can be easily made by any handy farm boy. The rope halter has the advantage of greater strength over halters made from leather or cotton web, The cost of the home-made rope halter is very low—the purchase cost of the rope—if the work of mak- ing is done on wet or stormy days.— L.

The animal is 4 months old, and its heart is placed in its neck, directly in front of its shoulder. Normal bovines us- ually carry their hearts behind the left shoulder. This calf's heart, bulg- ing its neck very noticeably, can be seen pulsating some distance away. The calf is in fine condition, and the misplacement of its vital organ does not seem to cause any inconvenience in any way. In five Years' Time Where will You be ? What will You be Doing ?
