Just what is alfalfa wo! ghen fed in this way to eat through the winter than alfalat thrives as nowhere else, it is fed exclusively on thousands of farms. A gurvey was made to find what price was realized on the hay. Would it be more profitable to sell the hay or to feed it? It was, found that on the average, cows produced 42.7 pounds butterfat per, ton of hay eaten. The milk production'was' | be decidedly profitable to feed tne A474 Pounds per. 'op of hay eaten, With butterfat at 40 cents a pound, this would give a value to hay of around $16, Cows producing 300 pounds of fat per year -- What would the high-class commercial cows--returned $7 more per ton than this average figure, At this ye. turn it wag much more profitable to feed the hay than to sell it, At the average return, there was a little. margin left for feeding, but not much, If the manure were re: quired on the farm, as is the case all over eastern Canada, {t would hay, or.

It illus- trated, he sald the onward march of bureaucracy, The House last week completed its long discussion of the English Derating Bill in committee of the whole. A separate bill is necessary for Scotland because the bill mans radical changes in municipal law law and Scottish local government are quite different from those of England, The bill is designed to relieve productive industry, agriculture, manufacturing, mining and trans- portation of some of its burden of local taxation, "ENDOWED SERMON" IS 448 YEARS OLD Bury St. Edmunds, England, Feb, 6,--St. Mary's Church in this Suffolk town {is the scene of an "endowed sermon" which is 448 years old. The annual preaching of- this sermon was provided for in the will of Rankyn Smitn in the year 1481. It has been preached every year since that date. Each almshouse inmate who at- tends the service receives a shil- ling, This year the trustees of the en- dowment fund revived an ancient custom which had lapsed fin re- cent decades, After the sermon the . trustees adjourned to the guildhall and as guests of the vie- ar were regaled with cakes and ale, 200 COMMUNISTS HELD Vienna, Feb, 6.-- Two hundred Communists were arrested in 'Buch- and municipal institutions, Scottish | SPAIN TO START ON GIBRALTAR TUNNEL Madrid, Feb. 6.--In the course of | the present year, Spain plans to build a tunnell across the Straits of Gibraltar if the project Is feas- ible, it has been learned on good authority, Geologists are to make an examination on the proposed site and 'decide whether the plan can be carried out, The director of the geological institute believes the capes of the straits can be perforated for a tun- ©|nel.

This disposed of the dominant is- sue in the cruiser fight and the Senate adjourned to meet to-day when passage of the measure au- thorizing 15 cruisers and an air- plane-carrier at a cost of $274,000,- 000 is regarded as assured. President Coolidge lost on this same issue in the Houes last year. Recently it was made known at the White House that if the time limi- tation clause were eliminated and the Chief Executive were given a free hand over the naval program he would send up recommendations for several of the cruisers at once. But the Senate stood by the pro- vision requiring that work on five of the cruisers shall be started dur- ing euch of the next three fiscal years, beginning with this year, which ends July 1. arest, Rumania, at the conclusi of a mass meeting and a demonstra- tion against the Royal Family, the Telkomp agency reported.

There are three formations: (1) Tren- ton, (2) Utica, (3) Hudson. The Trenton formation extends from Newcastle to Amherst Island. It is six hundred feet thick and con- sis.s of fossiliferous, bituminous limestones, dark grey in colour, in- terstratified with bituminous shales. The Utica formation, one hundred feet thick, erops out be- tween Whithy and Newcastle. It is composed of black bituminous shales and is just above the Tren~ ton formation, The Hudson forma~ tion occupies the shore of Lake Ontario from Port Credit to Pick- ering. It is seven hundred feet thick and meade up of bluish drab marls, clays, and shales, with lime- stone and sandstone. At different times, I have spent many hours exploring the Utica shale exposure in the creek by the Mi)! Street bridge. The water has caused the upper layers and edges to disintegrate so that it is diffi- cult to get hard slab-like speci- mens of the shale, near the sur- face. Some spots are quite desti- tute of fossils while in others fos- sil trilobites occur in hundreds. The imprints are very distinct. Ex- amination of a dozen bits of shale reveals a variety of fossil crust- aceans, brachiopods, and. cephalo- pods. Unfortunately these creat- ures lived so long ago that they never received English names. The following species are most readily identified : -- Crustacea, Asaphus canadensis of which the tails are intact. This trilobite is accompanied by Triar- thus beckii. B Lept.
