VITAMINS There are several different vita-
mins, If they are not prese.nt in the
s food consumed then such diseases as
s scurvy and rickets develop. They are
r called deficiency diseases as they oc-
cur when the diet is deficient in vita-
, mins. If the vitamins are only part-
_ laity lacking, while the deficiency dis-
f eases do not occur, proper growth
.each and everyone of us that it ,is
necessary for our own good that we
'be informed concer'hing them,
For many years it has been known
that our foods contain fats, proteins
,carbohydrates and •minerals. It was
generally understood that the value
of a diet depended entirely upon the
quantity and quality of these ingred-
ients, These substances are just as
-Important as they ever were, and if
Whatever is new, naturally attract
Lt, great deal of attention and that i
line reason why you read and hea
so much about vitamins, That is not
however, the reason for this article
It is became vitamins are of import
.:anceto the health and well-being o
and development do not take place;
the body is not healthy and it More
readily falls a victim to infection.
The Vitamins are present in many
, foods, but in varying ainounts. The
average person can rely upon milk
and dairy products, eggs, cream, leafy
vegetables, fresh fruits, tomatoes
(raw or canned) and whole grain cer-
eal to supply him with all the vita-
mins be requires.
our bodies are to be kept well nour-
A sufficiency of vitamins is a mat-
ter of real importance. It is fortun-
ate that, if the mentioned foods •are
used regularly and freely in the diet,
one does not need to worry about
the question of vitamins,
ished they must receive a sufficient
.supply of them.
During recent years, however, it
'has been discovered that there is
' :something else needed to complete
the diet. There are other constituents
.of foods which must also be present
in sufficient quantity if the body is'
ito be kept strong and healthy, These
-newer substances are called vitamins.
From all that is written about vita-
-inins, it might be supposed that a
•great deal is known about them,
whereas the truth is that we know
comparatively little. What we do
'know is not only interesting to make
it perfectly clear that the growth of
the body and the keeping of the body
in a state of health demand vitamins.
From what has been said, it is evi-
dent that the person who lives chief-
ly on sweets and starchy foods is al-
most sure to suffer. This does hot
mean that sweets and starches are
harmful—indeed they are not. They
should be used, but not to the exclu-
sion of other foods. Eat a wide var-
iety of foods is safe advice to follow.

sociation, 184 College St., Toronto,

Live Stock Figures
According to authoritative figures,
there are about 180,000 farms in On-
tario maintaining live stock, with cap-
ta1 invested in this stock of approxi-
mately $240,000,000. This estimate is
roughly apportioned as follows: cat-
tle, $120,000,000; horses, $82,000,000;
sheep, $7,000,000; swine, $14,000,000;
Poultry, $18,000,000.
tures of the Poultry Week Confer-
ences at 0.A.C. was the facts of poul-
try flock revenue as presented by Dr.
Marcelius in connection with the 0.
B.S. work in Ontario. One flock of
225 hens produced revenue totalling
$2,893.50, and the cost of feed totall-
ed $933.96; a profit over cost of feed
for the year of $1,459. Here is where
the revenue came from: Market eggs,
$850.68; hatching eggs $199.70; mar-
ket poultry, $747.97; and sale of
chicks and breeding stock, $595.15. In
connection with feed, this operator a
bought feed to the extent of $366.09
and fed feed produced on his own t
farm to a value of $567.87.

Tour Tobacco Area
The inspection tour of the Stand-
ing Committee on Tobacco Investi-
gations took place early in Augtist,
`rid party included Dr. Harcourt,
Messrs. N, J. Thomas and J. E. Har-
grave of the Department of Chemis-
try, 0.A.C., Dr, Nelson, and other
federal tobacco specialists, as well as
others directly interested in the to-
bacco crop. The tour was started at
the Harrow Experimental Station and
tobacco fields were visited in Kent,
Essex, Elgin and Norfolk. At the to-
bacco test plots near Delhi a special
study was made of the effect of fer-
tilizers of varying combinations on
the tobacco plants,
Following officials tests, the 0. A.
C. herd of tattle, numbering 181 head,
was pronounced absolutely free from
tuberculosis. ,
Live stock shipments from Canada
to Great Britain continue to increase,
a recent report showing that approx-
imately 10,000 head of cattle have
been marketed in the United King-
dom so far this season.
The harvest of comatoes and corn
for canning purposes is in full swing
and most districts report the prospect
of very good crops. Several counties
declare the corn crop the best in
years. In a few districts tomatoes
have been severely injured by the to-
mato worm.
Latest returns from beekeepers in
various parts of Ontario indicate that
the honey 'crop generally will be
lighter than anticipated three weeks
ago. Unsettled weather came at a
time when the honey flow was in full
swing and materially lessened. the
crop.
• A Pasture Experiment
A very interesting pasture demon-
stration has been carried out during
the past two seasons on the farm of
Howard Fraleigh, M.L.A., at Forest,
Mr. Fraleigh, who is prominent in
Ontario agriculture not only for his
outstanding success with fibre crops,
but as a breeder of Angus, is keen-
ly interested in the problem of pas-
ture maintenance.
With the co-operation of the chern-
istry department of the 0. A. C., a
series of' plots was laid out in 1930
long the highway running beside
Mr. Fraleigh's farm. In addition to
he fertilizer applied in 1930, the pas -
tire was harrowed over and re -seed -
d with a grass and clover mixture.
he result of this reconditioning was
ery plainly apparent at a field meet -

Rural Hydro Expands
Returns compiled by the Hydro-
lectric Power Commission for On-
tario of rural services to the end of
May last show that 50,064 rural cus-
tomers were connected with the var-
ious systems. From. November 1st
last, to the end of May 3,340 new
services were installed and 511 for
May alone.
In the same period 438 miles of
rural transmission lines were con-
structed, besides 606 for the seven
months' period ending May 31. The
total amount invested in rural sys-
tems is $15,630,226, of which $7,743,-

Markets Council Active
Charles W. Bauer, newly appointe
secretary of the Ontario Fruit anc
Vegetable Growers' Markets Council
has had ten years' experience with th
Vineland Growers' Association, whit
he managed very efficiently. He ha
now epened an office in the Brno
Building, Hatnilton, and will give hi
whole attention to the growers' mar
keting problems.
In a recent statement the president
H. L. Craise, said: "We are going to
list all. the commercial growers of
fruit and -vegetables and obtain par-
ticulars regarding the crops in which
they are most
interested. We ex-
pect to bring about a more satisfac-
tory relationship between growers
and canners, and in every export mar-
ket we expect to maintain commerc-
ial representatives who will promote.
the sale of Ontario produce and put
buyers in touch with growers and
shipping organizations who are in a
position to pack in carload quantities
to supply these outside markets."
H. E. Thorns has already been es-
tablished in Winnipeg to represent
Ontario growers in that market, and
the president of the council has in-
timated that markets in Quebec and
he
t, 'Maritime Provinces will likewise
be explored.
New Market for Lambs
One of the most interesting devel-
opments or trends of the present per-
iod is the extent to which tourist traf-
fic is providing new outlets for farm
products. The visitor evidently pre-
fers the best in quality and insists on
having it supplied fresh. This de-
mand is making itself felt in conn;ec-
tion with the heavy demand for fresh
lamb and mutton. Despite the fact
that there has been a fairly heavy
marketing of lainbs, and that these
have had to compete with consider-
able quantities of imported frozen
lamb, the tourist demand has taken
care of practically all the fresh pro-
duct as fast as it has come onto the
market,

• Fly Spray Valuable
The importance of fly spray for
cattle is definitely shown in the fol-
lowing statement by a well-known
Oxford Dairyman:
"Our herd liad not been sprayed
for two or three days and the milk
flow had, been materially affected,
The first day. after spraying there was
22 pounds mare milk and the second
day the herd was up 42 pounds. This
rate was maintained for about a week.
