Cleaning, Repairing and Pressing H. ALEXANDER Merchant Tuilnr Feveraham, - Ontario (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) Farmers, like others, are prone to put off to-day what they can do to- morrow, and, as a result, often neg- lect to get seed grain ready for sow- ing until the fine days of early spring call them to the land. Much time may be savtd and the rush of spring work lightened if seed is pre- pared in the late months of winter for spring sowing. This early seed preparation will likely result also in the seed of different crops being sown at the right time to insure the. greatest yields. I'se the Very Best Seed. The first step in good seed selec- tion should be the obtaining of the very best varlefy for sowing, a var- iety whose yield is high and whose quality of grata is good. Varieties of oats, Buch as O.A.C. No. 72, Banner, and O.A.C. No. 3; varieties of bar- ley, such as O.A.C. No. 21; varieties of spring wheat, such as Marquis. Ked Fife, and Wild Goose; varieties of spring rye, such as O.A.C. No. 61; varieties of field peas, such as Cana- dian Ueauty, Arthur, Potter, and Golden Vine; varieties of field beuiis, such us the Common Whito !'.,. beau; 'Varieties of buckwheat, such aa Kye, and Silver Hull, are all well suited to Ontario. conditions. Grain May lie Poor for Seed llul (ioud i'ir Feed. Small, shrunken, or broken seed has a feeding value nearly equal to that of large, plump, sound seed. Seed selection experiments conduct- ed at the O. A. College, Guelph, have hown, however, that there is a, very great difference in the value of these for seed purposes. \\li.u Experiments Show. Varying qualities of seed of oats, barley, spring wheat, peas and Utld beans were tested, and it was found that one year's seed selection of seed grain has a marked influence on the resulting crop. In every single in- stance, the large plump seed produc- ed a greater yield of grain per acre than the medium sized. small, shrunken, broken, or split seed. In the average of four classes of grain, the large plump Reed surpassed (lie small plump seed in yield of grain per acre by 28 per cent, and, in the average of three classes of grain, the plump aetd gave an average yield over the shrunken, broken, or split seed of 64 per ecu I. In thia experi- ment equal numbers of seeds were used in each selection. Large plump seed produced u larger, more vigor- ous, and more productive plant than that produced from small plump, shrunken, broken, or pllt seed. It should be remembered too that where only the la-Kent and plumpest gr..iiia are used for seed, the very n.uurc; of the selection eliminates the majority of the weed seeds which may have been in the grain before selection. When the farmer has obtained the best variety and sown only the best iced of this variety, he has placed the very safest insurance possible on the future of his crops. W. J. Squir- rll, O. A.

(Contributed by Ontario Department o Agriculture, Toronto.) T.'K- lirst winter is a critical time In ''the life of a colt. The care and attention ho recei-ves during this STiod determines, to a great extent, rV future usefulness. If he be poorly fed, neglected, and allowed to be- come thin and weak, It is probable he will never be an good or valuable an animal as he would have been under more favorable circumstances. Comfortable Quarters ImiK>rtnt. He, in the first place, should be provided with warm, comfortable aud well-ventilated quarters, and, while he should be taught to lead, and stand tied, it is much better if he have, a roomy stall to stand in. Two or more colts will probably do b^tt'-r together than one alone. At the same time, it is often necessary to wint<-.- one without company. He will do better by himself than with a colt a year or more older. The next ques- tion is: "What, and how much should he be fed." The Matter of Feeding. In our opinion tliere is little dan- ger of overfeeding at this age. While there are exceptions. It is us- ually safe to give a weanling all ho will eat, provided he geU regular exercise; but It must be understood ttat he should not be given more than he will eat. It is a mistake to keep food before him all the time. He should, with apparent relish, eat all that is given him, in at most an hour and a half, and then lie will be ready for the next meal when the time arrives. It is not easy to say Just how much food a colt of a given age and size should consume, but tho attendant, if a careful and observant man, will soon bo able to determine the quantity to be given at each meal, and be able to give sufficient, with- out waste. Hay and oats should be the food upon which to depend for growth, both muscle and bone. If other grain than oats be given we will take back what we have said about "there being little danger of oTerfeeding." '.i\.- Best Quality of Food. All food should be of first-class quality. Well saved timothy makes a good substitute. Hay should be fed in the necessary quantities three times daily, and we prefer whole to cut hay for such young animals. The. manner in which oats should be feil will admit of argument. In our opin- ion, and experience, rolled oats gives better results than whole. We find that colts relish rolled oats that ha^ve been scalded and allowed to become cool, and that they thrive well on Huch. The practice of mixing a ra- tion of rolled oats and a little wheat chaff or cut hay in a pall, pouring pome boiling water on It, covering it and allowing it to stand for a few hours before feeding, gives excellent results. The morning's meal can bo prepared in the evening, and the evening's meal in the same vessel in tbe morning, the noonday meal be- ing cither dry, rolled or whole oats. In adddttlou to hay and oats, tho colt hould bo given a carrot or two with the noon meal, and a feed of brau. either damp or dry, at least twice weekly. This may be extra, or in lieu of oats, as is indicated by the appar- ent requirements of the colt. As re- gards water, It is well to allow free access to water at all times. Where this is not practicable the colt should be given water at least three times daily. Let Him Get Ketisonable Exercise. He should be turned Into a yard or paddock for a few hours every day that is not too rough or stormy, and the more gentle handling and lessons in leading, etc., he gets the better. , His feet require attention. The wear is usually not sufficient to keep them in proper shape, the toes xrow long and the heels deep and narrow, and the wall turns inwards below the quarters. If this be oot corrected or prevented, permanent harm may rnsuli, Tho feet should be carefully examined at least orrco monthly and dressed to as near the normal size and .shape as possible by the use of a shoelngsmlth's knife and rasp. The stall should be clean- ed out, at least once weekly. J. H. Reed, V.S., O. A. College, Guvlph. No (Jain In Too Knrly r.. tin in:;. Farmers should ftot bo in a hurry to turn their cattlo out to pasture. The cattle will travel over the entire pasuire area, and by cutting up tin sod with their hoofs while tlvi ground Is yet soft, and grazing off the first blades of grass they will greatly reduce thn amount of feed which the pasture will yield If they are kept off a few weeks longer sol that the grass may have opportunity to make a real start. 1'nder average 1 conditions it will by all means pay' best to keep the cattle off the pas- ture' until the sod has become firm and tho grass has attained sufficient ftart to support them fully from the time they are turned out. Cattle should be turned on new gr:iss tin firs', time about the middle of the day, after they have alieady had a good nil of dry f^ed. They should be' driven hack to the feed lot each night for three or four niKlit;:, nnd given opportunity to eat some dry food each morning before going to the pnsturc.

The development of the dairy in- duttry of Canada during (lie past two decades has been surprisingly rapid ' Quick to realize lite profits to be ile- , rlred from milk production and the great value of dairying in conserving 'th'e fertility of the soil, the Canadian farmer has not hesitated to increase his investments in dairy cuttle. The Industry expanded during (Ike live years of world war. Canada, being distant from tho theatres of war, although handicapped by the drafting Into military service of half u mil- lion of her most vigorous manhood, was able to continue the development of many of her important Industries, particularly agriculture. It was not so in Europe. There the flery blast of war, wliich left profits In some parts of tho world, almost extinguished not only industry but national life itself In. ether. The drain upon manhood was so great that now In hundreds of thousands of families no adult males remain. Europe more- over is filled with orphan children whose prospect of life is marred by the lack of all that is necessary to bodily and mental growth. In most cases tho earning power anil conse- quently the purchasing power of their families Is utterly destroyed. Turning again to Canada we find there a surplus production of the commodities that are so badly needed in Kurope. Condensed milk for In- stance is a commodity that is a prime necessity for the children of the poor communities of Europe but the na- tions to which they belong have no uu'un.i of purchasing it for them. The Canadian Red Cross is going to endeavor to supply part of their needs by means of a general appeal for con- tribution. 1 ] to be made during Armis- tice week on behalf of tho British Empire Fund, which is to be used In the humane task of relieving the sufferings of millions who are stricken by famine and disease. Part of the fund will be used for purchasing in Canada suitable supplies and thus the- Red Cross will furnish the bridge across which some of our surplus milk will reach the enfeebled chil- dren in war-stricken areas.
