Feed costs are lower, and the prospects of lower- od production through flock deple- tion is inducing many farmers and | poultrymen to make sure of having {a good flock of laying pullets this | all by buying aproved chicks in lots of from 300 to 500 or more, WHAT ARE SCREENINGS The Seed .Branch of the Domin- fon Department of Agriculture has authorized the following specifica- tions for screenings: First: 'No, I Feed Screenings" -- consisting of broken and shrunken wheat mixed with wild buckwheat and which may not contain more than three per cent. by weight of small valueless weed seeds. Second: "Mixed Feed Oats' -- | consisting largely of wild oats but | with small percentage of domestic | oats and barley. Third: 'Refuse Screenings' -- which are made up of chaff and in- jurious weed seeds and so are un- suitable for feed purposes. Following the lead which has been given hy the Poultry Division of the Dominion Experimental Farms, the Department of Agricul- ture for New Brunswick in its an- nual report just issued has this ref- erence: 'The Poultry Division has again conducted a campaign for the blood testing of poultry to eliminate carriers of pullorum disease. More than 21,600 birds have been tested (1930) as compared with 16,000 in 1929. The percentage of birds reacting was 8.8 as compared with 9.5 last year. Since testing was be- gun in 1928 there has been a mark- ed improvement in the livability of chicks."

In ex- tent this great frontier occupies an area exceeding the combined areas of Ireland, Scotland and Wales, With the advent of new early ripen. ing varieties' wheat production in this area is extending rapidly, the output having 'increased enormous- ly during the past ten years.
