DEPTH OF PLOUGHING Experiments have been conducted at the Dominion Experimental Farm, Nappan, N.S., over a period of years, comparing depths of ploughing for oats and .swedes. Tlie plots are locat- ed on medium clay loam soil, with a heavy clay subsoil. Timothy sod is plouged for oats at 3 6 and 9 inch depths in both fall and spring. The average yields over a period of eight years are as follows: plough- ed in fall, 3 inches, 44.9 bu.; 6 inches, -l(i.2 bu.; 9 inches, 47.7 bu. Ploughed in spring: 3 inches, 36.2 bu.; 6 inches 36.3 l>u.; 9 inches, 39.4 bu. Stubble land ploughed at these ilepths previous to swedes has given iiverage yields over a nine year per- iod as follows: fall ploughed, 3 inches, 8.7 tons; 6 inchces, 8.7 tons; 9 inches, 8.8 tons. Spring ploughed, 3 inches, i.fi tons; 6 inches, 9.3 tons; 9 inches, 9.0 tons. While the average yields of 'oat3 are slightly in favor of deep plough- ing, the yields have varied from year to year and the differences to date cannot be considered significant. Swede yields do not show any sig- nificant differences between depths. Ploughing af a three inch depth re- quires more time to plough properly and more cultivation to control grass and weed g^rowth than is necessary on deeper ploughed land The 9-inch depth requires more power to ploagh and when the land is dry, it is diffi- cult, with ordinary equipment, to plough this type of soil at that depth. Considering all factor*, the data to date ndieate that on this soil type, 6 to 7 inches is the most practical depth of ploughing sod land for grain or stubble land for roots. Practically every part of the cow, in('ludirB» the blood, i» used in making lirplnnes. , j,j]( Germany is on the run â€" but you had better continue your purchase of War Savings Stamps. They'll be needed. The reason why most people can stand adversity better than they can good fortune is because they have had considerably more practice in standing adversity.

Additional equipment is severely limited by material shortages; co-operation must take tlje place of construction if essential calls are to go through promptly. I'l Oh ^etive SoWtie tPtt/mf U^*tfS &â-  iffo\ds What Does Inflation Mean to You and Me ? TT never to soar Why, we couldn't buy enough food to keep our families healthy under inflation. For wages and salaries catch up to prices when they start How would we like to pay $1.10 a dozen for eggs? You say it can't happen? Don't forget it's already happened right here in this Domin- ion, during the last war. And it will happen again . . . unless we're on our toes to keep the cost of living down. Every Canadian must face this challenge! It's our responsibility. But be of good heart. Living costs have risen LESS in Canada than anywhere else. Canada leads the world in the fight against inflation. HERE'S HOW IT'S DONEâ€" In 1941, Canada determined to control the cost of living. Price ceilings were established on wages, rentals and commodities; subsidies were paid on essential foods; goods in short •uppiy were rationed ... so that everyone could get th^^r fair share at a price they could •fiord to pay I But conuol of prices is a two-way responsibility. It needs your support if it is to continue working efi^ectively. So make this Pledge Today! I PROMISE to give my support to keeping the cost of living down. I will buy only what I needâ€" I will observe the ceil- ing whether buying or selling goods or services. I'll pay off old debts, save for the future, invest in Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificatesâ€" and will support taxes which help lower the cost of living; <^ Published by THE BRHWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) to reveal the daagers which inllalion can i lean to »ll (he people of Cao«<U.
