The movement of clover= and

all. With the exception of timothy
nd• sweet clover the, production in
a and the United States is re-
orted larger than last year. This
t, coupled with a good crop in

estimated ,that about 50 per cent. of
the alsike crop is not yet sold, 65.
to i5 per cent. of the red clover and
25 per cent., of the sweet clover.
Rates of Seeding
In an experiment conducted at
O.A.C. for a period of -eight- years
the results show that the greatest
yield per acre with winter wheat
was obtained from sowing one - and
three-quarters ' bushels of seed to•
the acre. " When the amount of
seed sawn per arce was taken into
consideration the yield at the one
and three-quarters, bushels' rate, of
seeding was only alightly greater
than that obtained tram sowing
one; and 'one-half bushels per acre.

900 Turkeys Raised
Approximately
900 turkeys have
been raised at the Ontario Govern
ment Turkey ,Farm near Forestville
in Norfolk County' during the past`
year. About one-half of these will
come under the axe prior to the
holiday season. 'Tire better type of
birds, however, /are retained for,
breeding' purposes. Very valuable,
information „with, respect' to tt-'
key raising, particularly the condi-
tions under which turkeys thrive,
has been obtained_ since the farm
was established a few years ago.
Personal Attention Needed .,
Egg -eating among' chieicens is
largely a vice that can be discour-
aged with a very ` little care and
attention. Leaving the birds in col-
ony houses after they have start-
ed laying will start the habit;'- too
few nests' in the laying house will
force the hen to lay on the floor
and the fowl are quick "to realize'
the palatability of their :awn pro-
duct. '' The easiest way' to, ,end the
trouble is ` to stay in the "pen ,.for
half a day, locate the '-ring-leaders
and remove -them. This treatment
is usually 100 per cent, effective.
Smut in Wheat -
It is estimated that . the two
smuts, stinking street or bunt, and
loose smut, damage the 'winter
Wheat crop in Ontario more -than
$1,000,000 annually. Much of this
loss can be `Prevented by 'smut
-treatments. Stinking smut of wheat
the more serious disease of the
two, can be controlled by using
formalin, blueetone or copper car-
bonate dust. Loose smut of wheat
cannot be controlled by these treat-
ments. Where . the' crop has been
damaged by loose smut thegrower
should obtain seed from a crop that
is free from this fungous disease.
"Golden Age” For Hogs"
The "Golden age" of hog' produc-
tion is between the third'and sev-
enth months when the weight at-
tained should be about 220 to 230 -
pounds. Beet' month from its 'birth
it takes progressively more feed
to produe a pound of gain. But
between the third and seventh
month, when, the rate of grain per
day and cost of .gain per, pound •art
conihinekl:, give the maximum pro-
ductive effiaioney. .After that age
the omlbined increasing cost of
gain per pound and lowered, value
due to overweight for the bette
grades make it unprofitable for the
.producer to feed hogs Ionger.

Canadian' lamb is a marketable
product which is rapidly growing
in popular demand. Canadian con-
sumers aro lamb eaters the year
round and consequently the -pre -
duction, marketing and - distributing
of damn must be so organized that
the consumer demand 'will be cater-
ed to at all seasons of the year,.
Unfortunately production and
marketing are not sufficiently or-
ganized at the present time, and
the industry is faced with the.- de-
pression yof competition from im-
ported lamb which this year has
already reached a volume of . over
8,000,000 pounds.
)Medium' weight carcasses weigh-
rug from 35 to 45 pounds with a
preference for the lighter weights 1
is what the market wants today.
Such carcasses are ptodueed- from
lambs weighing 80 to 100 pounds
at the farm. Finish, too, is import-
ant. Grain feeding , in Canada is
essential if ch"eice. well . finished
carcasses are to be produced in
volume.
Ontario's Tobacco Crop
Recent despatches from New
Zealand tell of the development of
tobacco production on • a large scale
in what is known as the Nelson
district, where land suitable to to-
bacco culture has been dieeover-
ed. ' however, with only 1000 acres
of tobacco in the entire district,'
the New Zealanders still have a.
long Way to go before a .cornpari-
son can , be made with Ontario's
rabidly inrceasing acreage. In Nor-
folk County alone. 10:000 acres of
flue -cured ,• tobacco • were grown in
1929 and the total will undoubted-
ly exceed 12,000 acres in 1980. - • Es -

Wet, Slippery
Pavements
C�U foar.spgeial etire
THE chances.for motor 'accidents multiply, greatly on pavements which are wet.
olr'covered. with snow or ice. Even when equipped with chains, an automobile
will not stop in so short a, distance as on a' dry pavement.
Motorists and pedestrians should keep this fact in mind. Too abrupt application
of brakes is the cause of much skidding. Disengaging, the : dutch at the same time
emphasizes the tendency to skid, and also detaches the most efficient brake on the
automobile, viz., the engine itself.
In braking on a skiddy pavement close the throttle, take the foot off the accelerator,
leave the, clutch engaged so that the engine helps the braking process, and apply.
•
Above everything else don't lock the wheels of your vehicle by suddenly clamping
down the brakes.
Just before • the vehicle is brought to a stop, the clutch should be disengaged.
On slippery pavements that are free from traffic, practice this method of
controlling your automobile. The skill you acquire may prevent an accident and
•
perhaps save a life, • •
the brakes GRADUALLY.
Remember, too; that your brake bands pick up moisture from the pavement in
wet Weather. A wet brake is not so efficient as 9 dry one.
Driving in fall andwinter has its dangers both, in;cit3' and -county . i y g' schooliny
yourself in handling your •machine on wet or slippery pavements, your driving
will, be safer for yourself and for other drivers. Remember your automobile is a
i...
machine. ' It does just what you make it do.
Care, Courtesy, and Common Sense -on the highways at all times—but particularly
now when new dangers are present.
