Keep hens this year EGG and poultry prices, llie like cf which have seldom or never been experienced, certainly make it worth V anyone's while to start keeping hens. By doing so you have fresh eggs at the most trilling cost. At the same time you have the splendid satisfaction of knowring that you are doing something towards helping Britain, Canada and the Allies achieve victoiy this year. Increased production of fixnl helps not only to Iowit tlie high c-o.^it of living, but it helps to increase llio urgently needed siirjilus of Canada's food for cxpoit. It saves money otherwise spent for ckj;s and p>>ultrv at high prices, and saves the I.ihor of others whose effort is needed for more vital war work. The Ontario Department of -Vgricttlture will give every possible assistance by affording iiiforinalion alx>ut poultry keeping. Write for free bulletin which tells how to keep hens (adthess below). "A vegetable garden for every home" Nothing should be overlooked in this vital year of the war. The Department earnestly iuvitescveryoiie to help increase production by growing vegetables. Kveu the smallest plot of ground, when properly cultivated, pro- duces a surprising amount of vegetables. Kxpcrieuce is not essential. On request the Department of Agriculture will send valuable literature, free of charge, giving ct>iuplete direc- tions for preparing soil, planting, ctjJtivaliou, etc. - .\. plan of a vegetable garden, incUcating suitable crop to grow, best varieties and their arrangement in the garden, will be sent free to any address.
