prov lnce to look after the seed require znents this is dependent on every fanner taking immediate steps to have the best of his grain cleaned and setaside for his seed many ap pear to think that because their grain this year is off color and altule under standard in weight that it win not make suitable seed but test s already made show that when thl offcolored and underweight grain has been thoroughly cleaned up to a 50 per cent cut in some instances good seed was secured which germinated as high as 00 per cent ii this work is done now the cleaned out grain can be used for feed by following out some such policy there will be no great shortage of seed next spring many farmers have a fanning mill of some description which with a little repair and an ex tra screen or two will clean grains the correct screens of course are 1m portant and should any farmer be in doubt the department will be glad to furnish this information on re- iuest where farmers live within driving and trucking distance of pow er cleaning plants that have scourers and carter disc machines it will oay them to have their cleaning done at one of these plants what is most important is that the farmers start now so that the clean lng and germinating can be done properly and not leave it until b spring rush develops germination tests will indicate the suitability of seed green feed for poultry at all

precaution is tak in feeding i it may be used in unlimited quantity for several years it has been the practice at the experimental station at harrow to chop fine the young all alia shoots for the baby chicks and to use cut alfalfa hay as the sole rneans of supplying the necessary roughage and greens for winter egg production a good grade of second or third pitting hay is run through a itfny boxjn-

again next tuesday labor and employment labor as the te is commonly understood has more than a theor etlcal interest in themovement afoot to stimulate the sale of produced in canada merchandise because there is a very direct relationship between sales and employment every sale represents direct em ployment to a variety of people out side the category of tee producer and the one whomakes the article there is the office staff in the plant the industries which for instance supply containers the printers who issue the descriptive folders or laoeis the stores which sell the article and all the other associated industries which employ men and women who are directly or indirectly associated wit th transfer of that article to the consumer so that when a produced in canada article is mid it provides employment to more than the one who turns out the finished product it is a mistake however to believe that the produced in canada idea is limited solely to the manufacturing branch of our economic life it ap piles with equal force to the farmer on the prairies who is selling his grain livestock or field crops to the maritime fisherman garnering h harvest from the sea and sending it all over canada or to the man who is blasting metals or coal out of the canadian terrain labor therefore should profit by the development of this movement because it has a very important bear lng on utelpay envelope and it follows thattthe more support given to furthering the produced in can ada plan providing of course that prices and quality are satisfactory the m chance canada will have of-
