BUSY FARMER NEWS
Order Changes 'Weights, csE•
Basket
Vegetables.:
An important modification in the
weights of vegetables soid in six and
eleven quart baskets has been brou-
ght into effect throughout Canada.
The Root Vegetables Act provides
for the sale of vegetables other than
those commonly known as green veg-
etables, by the measured bushel ,or
part thereof providing the measured
bushel or part of a bushel is of:t-
andard weight or the correct propor-
tionate equivalent.
It has been found in practice that
the weights prescribed by the Act for
six and eleven quart baskets of pot-
atoes, onions, beets, carrots, turnips
parsnips and artichokes could be se-
cured only by heaping up the bask-
ets with the vegetable concerned, the
weights in the Act having been figur-
ed on the basisof proportionate vol-
ume.
Raiser Your Own Living!
Whether willing or not the major-
ity of farmers are now obliged to su-
pply
upply more of their own needs. The
following list may provide suggest-
ions for further economy:
1. Milk a few good cows: feed
recommended rations.
2. Fatten one pig for every two
adult members of the family; cure
the meat properly.
3. Keep at least 100 good hens,
correctly housed and fed.
4. Raise a good garden; water
from windmill if possible.
5. ,Plant only cash crops, which
show little or no surplus.
6: Grow your own stock feed.
7. Butcher fat cows and steers;
trade meat with neighbors.
8. Raise your own living; keep
your roof tight.
'9. Get down to earth and do the
best you can today. •
10. Drive a horse until you can
afford Co buy gasoline.
Keep Mangers Clean "kw
An inspection of the mangers of
stables when cows are not doing, well.
might go a• long way towards finding'
out the cause of trouble. Sanitation
in : mangers and 'the drinking supply
is in many cases very poor. When
cows don't drink as much water as
they should, or leave a certain tun-
aunt
rnount of meal in the bottom of the.
mangers, the trouble may generally
be laid to the door of poor sanitation
An inspection of mangers and drink-
ing' cups would probably, show that
the cups" had become fouled With
chaff and spoiled silage, and when
left for even a day the water is fil-
thy. It is reasonable that cows will
not brink freely of this water.
Clean `Nests,Clean Eggs.
It takes less time to place clean
straw in the nests than it takes to
clean eggs. ' Some eggi will become
dirty in spite of the best of care.'

but the egg cleaning work is greatly
reduced lif the nests are cleaned at
egg gathering time when dirt is no-
ticed ,and a little, clean straw is added
once Dior twice each week. This is a
good early morning job before the
hens start using the nests. If you
haveiio straw stack, keep a bale of
straw,in each laying house so that a
measure of the • loose straw can be
worked up and added by handfuls to
any nests where the boards are .be-
coming bare or the straw is soiled.
