The UDPC, through increased size, financ- ing and influence, will be able ta give large retail outlets quantity, service and quality because it will have sufficient product under its contrai ta make and supply contracts. Membership will consist of both individuals and corpora- tions, such as other local co- operatives which are currently sel..ng dairy or poultry products, but which do not wish ta merge with the UDPC. In the latter case the co-aps will become corporate members. Each mem- ber will be asked ta subscribe for 40 shares which can be paid for with cash or by deductions on produce marketed through the UDPC. Patron members of the new UDPC plants will elect annually a Plant Committec, which will function in a similar fashion ta the boards of direct- ors on present local co-aps. Delegate representation at annual meetings of the V#DPC will be made on the basis af the number of members in each of the five zones set up by the UDPC, with a maximum af 10 delegates from any one zone. The UDPC will have a nine- man board of directors, with five elccted from the zones, two at large and two appainted by the UCO board as long as the UCO continues ta supply a major portion of the finances.

Fali Pasture Management Im Proves N ext Careful fali management af pastures and hay fields is vital ta good production the follow- ing year, reports Dr. W. E. Tas- sell, Field Husbandry Depart- ment, Ontario Agricultural Col- lege, who adds that at this time of year a good pasture can be destroyed or weakened through improper grazing, or a weak pasture can be strengthened by proper management. Pasture and hay are the back- bone of the feeding program for beef and dairy cattie and are money-making crops. Since some fields must be grazed in September ta provide this feed, the logical ones are those fields which will be plowe.d later ini the fali. Graze these right to the, groundin September and allow the younger aifalfa mea- dows ta rest. Later in the fall, graze the second year meadows, and later stili the first year al- falfa meadows and young pas- ture fields. On the younger al- falfa meadows 4 ta 6 inches of top should be leit and on good ladino grass pastures about 4 James T. Brown Has Busy Time As Assn.

Late in the faîl when growth bas stopped new seeding can be pastolred but 6 inches of the top growth should be leit ta hclp carrythem through the winter. Fertility is another aspect ai good management. Good pasture and hav crops use large amounts ai femtility nutrients and it pays ta fertilize these crops gener- ously. Ealy faîl is a good time ta fertcilize pastures and hay fields containing a -goad propor- tion ai legumes. Another thing which should be donc each f al is ta harrow pastumes ta sprcad the droppings ta make better use of their fertility by spread- ing it over mare plants-, also the grass growth will be less patchv in the spring and cattle will graze the pasture more evernl3r. Hens May Need Less Protein Ottawa - Protein require- ments ai laying hens may be far less than rccommcnded at present. according ta Nutrition- ist T. M. Maclntyre, of the Nap- pan, N. S. Expeimental Farm. Protein levels anging fromn 12 ta 20 per cent were fed ta laying hens at Nappan. There was no evidence ta support the view that high cncrgy rations requime highcr levels o! protein than now employcd. Indeed, 15 per cent protein has been found ta be more than sufficient and evidence strong- ly suggests that levels as low as 12 per cent may be adequate. Wbilc furtbem study is need- ed, indications are that future laying rations will cantain less protein - spclling substantial savings ta poultrymen. In recent ycars, use of high energy grains and addition ai fats to laying rations resulted in much higber cnergy levels, and the tendency was ta asso- ciate high pratein levels with high energy levels. This, says Mr. Maclntyme, led, ta renewed intemest in the pro-1 tein requirement o! the layig hen. )BITUARY bMS.

Tough Task Keeping Farm Tabby Healthy Thz farm cat, an animal so important in cantrolling rats and mice on thse farm is becom- ing more and more diii icult ta kecp healthy. The disease mast cammon in aur cats today is known as cat distemper or maie accurately as feline panleuko- penia. The disease is caused by a virus and sprcads vcry quick- ly among kittens and young cats. Usually the disease exhibitsi itseli as an intestinal disorder where the cat refuses food and loses condition very quickly. Usually the disease is fatal. According ta the Ontario Vpt- erinary College, cat dîstemper and aà disease ai mink known as mink enteritis appear ta, be caused b y the same virus agent. For t±iis reason it is important that oink ranches be kept free of infccted cats. The disease can be prcvcnted best by a regular programn of vaccination. On farm-s wherel the disease is a problem it may be necessary for a veteinarian ta egularly innoculate the kit- tens with serum and conclude the programn by vaccinating the kittens at about three months of age.

Nettie was in her sixtecnth ycar, a venerable age for a cow, ar.d it was quite possible that sise would corne ta the end ai her days anytime. However, Harry said at the time he had a hunch that she was carrying a bull cal!. which if she saiely deliv- ered it. could be a vcry valu- able animal indecd, since other bull calves from Nettie had sald at prices ai $20,100, $18,- 500, and $10,050. The first part of Harry's- Hunch came true on Septem- ber 29, whcn Nettie gave birth ta a big strong well marked son of the Extra sire, A.B.C. Reflection Sovereign.
