One of thorn was well ventive of digeetive troubles, and helps to keep the hens vigorous. Hens that get plenty of milk seem to pro- duce eggs with a high degree of fer- tility, that produce healthy chicks. The solar -milk crocks and pails need fre- quent scaldings to prevent bowel trouble. - Green feed furnishes the bulk that our hens need when on a concentrated ration.

For efficient 'Poultry -feeding I find the self -serve method pays best It can be used for every item in the ration except the scratch grain. Fowls need the exercise they get from hunting in the loose straw for the grain. By far the most important element in the ration is the balanced, dry mash. I have used both, commercial and The old' method of feeding poultry consisted largely in shoveling out grain on the bare ground whenever the hens looked as if they needed feed. The new method is based on a study of the hen's requirements for health and egg production. I often study my hens on the range, noting how they balance their own rations; first a bug or a worm, then a weed seed, followed perhaps by a few pecks at something green for a salad course.

At present there are in all eighty- nine Illustration Stations in operation under the Illustration Station system, adopted in connection with the Domin- ion Experimental Farms some years ago. Of these ten are in New, Bruns- wick, of which the Superintendent at Fredericton Experimental Station has general supervision, eleven in Nova Scotia, of which the Superintendent at Kentville Experimental Station has general supervision, and thirty-one in the Province of Quebec, fourteen of which the Superintendent at $t. Anne de la Pocatiere has general _super- vision and seventeen 'are superviaed froth the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. • A report has recently been issued covering the work of last year which should be of special interest to formers in the three provinces named. In carrying on the work it is the prac- tice to select land facing on the main travelled highways so that the meth- ods of growing and handling the crops 'come under the public eye. Not only is the work noticeable from the high- ways, but discussions attended by farmers in the vicinity are held at the Stations during the groWing season. Experimental and practical work is thus brought close, to the farmers in the different districts. The report can be had free from the Publications Branch, of the Department' of Agri- culture, Ottawa. Don't Burn S -Calks.. For every ton of stalks burned, $3 worth of nitrates goes up in smoke. The potash and phosphorus are not lost, but left in a heap of ashes and are never evenly distributed thiough the soil, Plowing under the stalks and other litter has a three -fold bene- fit.. First, it adds much needed plant food to the soil; seeond, the decaying vegetation, in contact ,with the soil, goes through a nitrifying process and renders available much plant -food that is already in the soil it an insoluble silicate form; third, it adds humus to the soil and assists in 'holding mois- ture for the next crop.

The leader calls another word, and the 'second player reeponds. This is repeated until all have responded, or. failed so th do. The one scoring the most rhymes has the fun of calling a word for which the leader must make a rhyme; and if he fails, the others who failed decide on a forfeit he must pay. Flax Production in Canada. Like wool and other products of the farm, flax is now being graded. Dur- ing the worldewar, after the manner of everything else that could be pro- duced, flax sold freely at good prices, "even though of an inferior quality,"1 ae Mr. R. Hutchinson, Chief of the' Fibre Division at Ottawa, says in his report for the year 1922. With the conclusion of active hostilities; condi- tions greatly changed, 'and until re- ceetly it was found difficult to sell ly es grades o re. At, the end of 1921 many growers had I stocks on hand which they could not dispose of. With a view to securing a market Mr. Hutchinson paid a visit th Europe, but conditions were such that only-' small quantities could be sold at remunerative figures.- To- wards the fall of last year Prices showed some improvement and a sell- ing agent was appointed with head- quarters at Forest, Ontario, Under the supervision of the Fibre Division, samples were assembled at that place, and as a result, approximately four hundred tons of flax were disposed of at- prices ranging from twenty to twenty-five cents a pound. The selec- tion of these samples was so difficult, owing th the mixed nature of the flax submitted,,that the necessity of grad- ing was brought prominently into no- tice, and a grader woe appointed by the Division whose duty it is to visit How About the 'Air" in Fair?

I solved the water situation on my farm twenty years ago by installing an inexpensive 'supply tank that gave sufficient pressure to force water into the house and to the ethe'r farm build- ings and the feed lots. I set alwooden tank on a seven -foot brick foundation near the house, on a relatively high point of ground, This tank holds 65 barrels of water. In addition th furnishing. vvathr for the house and livestock, I irrigate my gar- den in the sunernee, using 'a 50 -foot hose to cairy the water From a hy- drant near the tank. I have never had any trouble from freezing. I use the space under the tank made by the foundation to smoke my meat. In extremely cold weather I build a small fire there to eliminate entirely the possibility of freezing. My supply tank is set under a large maple tree. In the summer the water is always cool and refreshing. There is no stagnant water because fresh water is pumped in by the windmill every day, mad the shade helps to keep 't 1. The only repairs in twenty years have been a few new staves for the wooden tank. This entire system was originally installed for less than $100. I believe a convenient avater supply is just as important on the farm as a plow or a barn. It more than paid for itself the first year, and now it is twenty years old.—A. A,.

Here are aonie eeasons; choose the' one that suits your case: They may lack breeding or are underfed. or it may be because they were bred too young, because they lack care and management, because of disease, espe- cially abortion, or because theY are not persistent milkers. Any one of or all these factors will make small milk cheques. The following are things that will make the cheques larger: Good breeding (good sires), proper development of their heifers, not breeding heifers; too young, liberal and proper feeding, accurate records, good care and healthy cows, Cow testing associations offer the best chance to find out whether your cows are paying for their board. If there are twenty-six farmers your neighborhood who have several cows apiece, talk up an association. 'Twill pay: The Man Who's Afraid.
