Now this ie largely remedied, and wool from this country is able to compete in some meesure with the best wool from New Zealand and Australia and to coin- mand as good a price. Eureng the ve the demand for wool was enormou and prices naterally soared VerY hiE Now they leave dropped to some ex- tent ia every market, but there is abundant evidence that with the re- turn of settled and normal conditions priori will be found remunerative and fluctuation eonsiderably 'checked. The valuable work done by the official graders is testified to by the fact that the demand for Canadian wool has 'been greatly increased. Their task is hard and exacting. Its extent is de- noted by the fact that for the year ending March 31, 1920, 3,788,138 pounds were graded or farmers' co- operative organizations. Of this m- ope 780,379 pounds were from On- tario, 743,662 •pounds from Saskat- chewan "and 1,462,161 pounds from Al- bereit. The system has undoubtedly given stability to the wool industry end led to an incense of sheep breed- ing, and sheep of an improved, quality. It also equalizes prices and encourages farmers to take greater ,care of and •More pride in their flocks. Grading, after all, is only one step that has been taicen to develop the wool in- dustry. Exhibits have 'been made at home and (thread, In Canada displays were made at all the leading fairs. In ten western exhibitions there were shown the grades of wool, processes of manufacture of both wool and mo- hair, a full line of shepherd's supplies and samples of the best feeds for sheep. In the east at -seveeal of the principal exhibitions emonstrations were given in the ereparation of wool for market, shearing, grading of wool and dipping. Stationary wool exhibits have been supplied to the agricultural eolleges and placed on view in ma- mmals, Demonstrations have further been made byne.xperts in the finishing of sheep and lambs for the market, in docking and diOping, in shipping, and in the care of sheep generally, both on the farm and in transit. placed 'by the BritishelOovernment and tee lack oe exportation facilitin due to the demands of the 'Near, trans,. °neon; shipping was -entieely at 00 Mundane for euce coramoditin, As a coneepence of this and because of other discouragement+) acing& suf- fered greatly.

Organintion uld co- eperation for Marketing purposes aro being -urged. ele a result of then efforts, officials feel warranted in say- ing that apple -growers have every reason to feel optimistic as to the fu- ture. It is also said that although prices fer many agricultural products have declined, the price for the best quality of apples has not fallen, nor is it likely to do so, owing te the fact that production., even under favoreble conditions, is not greater to -day than it was a quarter of a century ago, and cannot 'be materially increased for same years to come. Provincial Butter -Making Standing. Ontario does not appear to stand extra well as regards butter -making com,pared •vvith ether provinces. Dur- ing the past year or two Dominion - wide ;contests ha-ve been heidewith the objects of establishing a uniform type ofcreamery hu.tter threughout the country, to •create a healthy rivalry ,between the provinces, ^and to help in the etan,clardizing of methods ..and practice in the butter -making indus- try. As a result in then contests, Ontario stood last ,of all the provinces for flavor in 1919 and sixth in 1920. • For workmanship, Ontario again stood last in 1919 and eighth in 1020. The etanding of the provinces last year was like this: For flavor: Alberta, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, On- tario, British Columbia, Prince Ed- ward Island, New Brunswick. For workmanship: Nova Scotia, Al- berta,British Columbia, Quebec, Sas- katchewan, Prince •Edward New Brunswick, Ontario Manitoba. ,Sa.mplee from the contests are ex- hibited at tee dairymen's conventions in every province -of the Dominion, at the dairy schools, at produce mer - thanes' conferences, at butter graders' conferences and during 'butter -scoring competitions. ' s The Apple -Growing Industry. -Owe andustry that suffered owing to -emotteete week that of apple -growing. 3v engeeita Mite embargo on apples enelgen_e_e_ol___ lo b • , a , 55 iheibest &themes to discour- p &in, widely used and sn- d&se381the foremost authorities, is to pleee embroody hen in a coop that is fitted with a slatted bottom. The hen is unable to squat in a -comfortable po- sition, .because her feet prabrude through the openings between the slats. She has no seese of privacy br security, and the sensabion of currents of air under her is not to her liking. Two or three days of this harmless pillory usually disgusts her with the notion of setting, and when released she is only too anxious to rejoin her companions in the laying house. Ibis understood that food and water are kept in the coop at all times for the "clucks" should be encouraged to maintain their physical trim and not be starved. The coop should be kept in a Well -ventilated place, under per- fect sanitary conditions, preferably where there is strong light, ;because plenty of light is distracting to the silting hen, who naturally seeks a Prepotency is the power which gives ,a bull or cow the ability to stamp its own characteristics on its offspring. The value of the pureelsred; ball on the grade herd rests in this ability to mark the calves, and make them both better lookers and better producers than their mothers. The gestation period •of the cow is nine and one-half months; or two hun- dred and eighty days. Sometimes a breeder figures it as nine months to the day, and -then worries because it seems to run over a couple of weeks and the calf is not born when sup- posedly due. For example, a eow bred on January 1 would hig due about November 8, not on November 1. The date of calving is found by countin.g forward the two hundred and eighty days from the date of service. Weakness in breeding stock is often laid to inbreeding but facts prove that the greatest progress on producing fine cows has ;been by skilled men who have used inbreeding. But such breed- ers have known the bleed lines of dark, secluded spot in which to bring theifeeteck and they are thus able to otr her brood, mate so thab strong points will be In mild, pleasant weather the "broodies" can be turned into a yawl and made to sleep outdoors. Do what you will vrith then to •distract the in- clination to sit, provided they are not injured, frightened or impaired in any way. By all means feed and water them liberally. The ,chief consideration is to segre- gate the hens as soon as they be- come broody, „if possible on the first day. A hen removed from the nest at this tiree is very much (mike to discourage than when she has been 'allowed to indulge her fancy for a week or more. To insure getting the "brealies" at an early .stage, the poultry keeper should make it a hard, and fast rule to go over the nests every evening about an hour before sundown, during the spring and summer months, and to remove _therefrom any hens found at this time. Very few hens lay after 4 o'elack in the afternoon, consequent- ly one is entitledto view with suspie aon ;any fowls found on the nests in the evening. The United States authorities ate taking steps to peotect the silvereblack fox induetry from contagion and par- asitic diseases ;by repining all hnport- ea eoxee to undergo qu.arantine inspec- tion -or examination.

The report, of the Veterinary Director -General recently issued cov- ers two years, the f.fet part fpr the year ending March 81, 1919, and the seemed part for the twelve months ter- minating leforch 31, 1920. The health of Canada's live stock during both years is shown to have been highly satisfactory. In fact, ibis easy to be- lieve that Canute is the healthiest country in the world for all Meals of live stock. No country can claim to be absolutely free from ailments, its cattle, horses, sheep and swine any mon than it -can, that every human being is healleaperfect, But Canada, it is safe to assert, comae nearce to the ideal state than any other land. None of the epizootic diseases tent eause most anxiety to sanitary officials, such as foot and mouth diseases, cat- tle plague, and contagious pleuro- pneumonia, are found wallet our bor- ders. Diseases that do exist to a very limited extent, such glanders, hog cholera, 'and cattle mange, the repert shows are being kept well under con- trol and are diminishing in number year by year. Glandere is proven to have existed only in northern Saskat- chewan and Manitoba and in those provinces extremely few cases are re- ported. All the outbreaks, the Voter - Maio, Director -General is able to state, have ;been efficiently dealt with and tee disease eradicated.
