Ladies are invited. MODERN COWSr Cows today look much thei sanie as they did in Noah's timer ... tbey corne wlth the same stand-t ard equipment. But a good cow taday would flick ber tail with proud distain at the miserabier haîf-gallon buckets that beld ther milk one of ber ancestors coulds produce just a century ago. A two-gailon pail is the size of the pail today and, in some berds, a four-gallon container is dloser to a single cow's capacity. PLANT PROTECTION WITH ANTIBIOTICS Penicillin is a bousebold word in the wold today. Not only bas it revaiutionized medicai prac- tice and saved many thousands a! lives, it epresents a new ap- proech ta, disease control in man and animais and now plant sci- entists are seeking the counter- part o! penicillin as an ally in the figbt ta control plant diseases. This so-called "miracle drug" is but one of several antibîotics, or chemical substances produced by micro-omganisms whicb check the gowtb or interfere with the life processes of other minute forms of life that may produce diseases in man, anmmals or plants. Other less well known antibiotics besides penicillin, include strepto- mycin, aureomycin and same otb-j ers that are stili on the secret list. For some time plant patholo- gists and bacteriologusts ini thej Department o! Agriculture, Ot- tawa, have been engaged in fun- with substances similar ta peni- cillin as a means of controlling certain seed-borne diseases af crop plants and progress is being made. Before a disease cen be ade- quately controlled, first the argan- ism causing it must be isolated and its lil!. bstory studied, so it can be hit at the weakest point with the mast effective weapon available. Canadian scientists are hapeful that a counterpart of penicillin can be found ta combat plant diseases, wbich migbt elim- inate some of the costly and rather elaborate spraying and dusting methads used at present. Sev- er.al antibiotics tested show prom- ise, for instance, in tbe control of a fungus disease that is pmoving a limiting factor in pea produc- tion, as so far it has de! ied al against ItL a a Tractors a CASE e look pos e epeulyplaint to, de .real porpo.. of a ractor-1 m. put power ta work and pushî your farmiag forward.

W. ?Imm u Bloat iCattie Bloat most oftei- occurs Ir serbous obstacles ta the use oJ valuable legume pastures foi ca'ttle. The exact cause of bloat- îng is not known but appears ti be directly associated with thE inabilîty of the animal ta get rid o! the gases, produced in the fer- mentations occumring i the ru- men, by belching. Under certain feed conditions, however, the gas is not expelled by belching and, consequently accumulates, caus- ing bioating Bloat most foten occurs ln thick, immature stands of alfaif e or claver. Grasses rarely cause bloat. Grasses have sharp, irri- tating surfaces which may fa- cilitate belching. Apparently some coarse, scratcby material is required ta irrifate the rumen and initiate belehing, thus en- abling the animal ta, remave accu- mulated gas fromn the rumen. When alfaifa or claver contains reiatively large amounts af wat- er or if tbey are wet as the resuit of frost, dew, or ramn, they are more likely ta be dangerous for use as feeds. A heavy raizL follow- ing a period of drougbt wiil pro- mate a rapid luscious growth of the legumes, thus increasing the bloat bazard. Pasturing the ai!- alfa or claver after they have reached the bloomine stage belps prevent trouble. Mare legumes stimulate belching by which the animal rids itseif of the gas as it forms. By usin1g a fairiy large proportion o! grass, there will be less danger o! bloat in cattie than if a legume is used alone. Ex- perience at the Dominion Experi- mental Station, Melfort, Sask., bas shown that bloat rarely occurs if grasses make up at least 50 per cent. o! the mixture, says Super- iritendent H. E. Wilson. Grasses and legumes together, pro- vide a pasture that is very nu- tritious and, if the kinds are chosen care!ully they wiil provide good pasture fairly continuously throughout the season. Certain precautions will belp ta reduce the number of cases of bloat. Neyer turn hungry ani- mals into a pasture containing ai!- alfa. Feed the enimals well on grass pasture or some dry feed first. Ailowing to cattle ta bave access ta palatable hay in a rack or stack will reduce the incidence of bloat on legume pasture. Mild cases of bloat can fre- quently be relieved by plecing a stick crasswise in the anîmal's nouth ta stimulate belching. If the bloat is detected soon enough, a drench of minemal ail, urpentine, coal-ail or formalin nay produce relief. Give any one o! the foilowing mixtures: a) a quart af mineral ail; or (b) aur tablespoonsful of turpentine in a pint of water or raw linseed oil; or (c) half a cup of coal-ail in *nough milk ta make a pint; or d) one tablespoonful of forma- in (formaldebyde) in a pint o! aild water or milk. Seriaus cases usually can be saved only by puncturing the ru- mien ini the proper spot with a trocar or small kni!e. This will llow the gaî ta escape, and is )ften a life-saver. In selecting rie point for usine the trocar or rnall kni!e, a spot on the le!t ;de equally distant from the last ib, the bip bone and the exten- don of the vertebrae above the sntre o! a straight line between lese points must be chosen. Swine Supplements Special care is necessary ta ensure that the basic rations for different ages and classes of swine are adequate and suitably sup- plemented. Protein, mineral and vitamin supplements are com- moniy needed for tbe promotion and maintenance o! beeltb, vigor, normal grawth and efficient gains in swine, says W. W. Cram, Do- minion Experimental Farm, In- dien Head, Sask. Skim miik is the best protein suppiement for ail classes of pigs and it supplies certain minerais and vitamins as weli. One or two pounds o! skim milk, or buttermilk, per pound o! grain is recommended for pregnant and nursing sows; about 2 ta 21/2 lbs. for weaniings, while the amount may be gradually reduced ta ana pound per pound of grain for finisbing market pigs. Sweet skim milk is best for nursing sows, nursing and weanling pigs. In the absaic a!f skim milk it is necessary ta provide a substi-- tute such as tankage or a mixed protein suppiament in suitable amaunts. The amount o! tankage ta feed, varies from 8 ta 10 per cent for nursing and waaniing pugs to 4 or 5 per cent for finish- ing market pigs and for pregn ont and nursing sow#s. The mixed supplements should be fed ac- cording ta directions supplied by the manufacturer. Minerais likely ta ba lacking in ondînary ations are common sait, calcium and iodine. Ail pigs require sait et the ate o! ana-bal! ta one pound per 100 pounds o! grain mixture. It lu a good prac- tice ta supply iodized sait ta pigs o! ail ages. If sufficient amounts of skim mllk, tankaga or mixed suppie- ments are not fad, the equired calcium or lime cen be suppiied by edding one-haîf ta one per cent o! ground limnestone ta the meal ration of ail pigs. Each Sow during pregnancy shauld eceive (in addition ta iodizadl sait) a tablespoonful twoi or three times weekly o! a solu- tion cansisting o! ana ounce o! potassium iadide dissolved in a galion o! water for the prevention o! bairlessness, flabbiness and1 general weakness in new born pigs. Nursing pigs haused indoorsa need an lran supplement to guard against; anaemia whlch causes severe losses durlng the nursing and weanling stages. Sufficient iron sulphate ta caver a dine, or half this aniaunt of reduced lran, placed on the tangue of each young pig withln 2 or 3 days of birth and then once weekly until four or five doses have been given is effective i the prevention of anaemia. The feeding of a good pig starter fram the three week stage will help greatly i supply- ing nutrients necessary for thrift and gowth and since grain feeds contain some iran the danger fromn anaemia is also greatiy reduced. Last Friday night we think everybody from every corner came to Enniskillen. There was a large attendance at the soccer *game between Darlington-Clarke Ail-Stars and Massey-Harris, To- ronto's leading team. The score was 7-3 for the All-Stars.
