2 THE COLBORNE EXPRESS. COLBORNE. ONT.. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1928 MEAL MIXTURES FOR STEERS j An experiment conducted at the Len-noxville Experiment Station shows that a mixture of 60 per cent, screenings and per per cent, oil cake makes one of the most satisfactory meal mixtures for steer feeding. Four lots of; steers were used, six to a lot. Those | fed screenings made an average daily i gain of 1.86 pounds; the second lot,1 given 60 per cent, screenings and 40 per cent, corn, gained 1.84 pounds perl day; 60 per cent, screenings and 40j per cent, cottonseed produced a gain of 199 pounds; and the screenings and oii cake a gain of 2.12 pounds per day. The gain produced with the cottonseed was lowest in cost at 7.1 cents per pound of gain, and the corn the highest 7.79 cents per pound of gain. The screenings and oil cake cast 7.27 cents, but when the finish of the steers is taken into consideration, which is estimated at half a cent a pound over the other lots, the results showed that this mixture makes one of the most satisfactory mixtures for steer feeding. Full details of this experiment are recorded in the Report of the Lennoxville Experiment Station, which may be had on application to the Publications Branch. Dept. of Agriculture, Ottawa. It is interesting to note that the Steers in this experiment each consumed 1.740 pounds of hay, and 5,220 pounds of ensilage. CHEESE AND ITS USES. The first cheese factory in Canada was started in Oxford County, Ont.,. in 1864, followed by the second in Missisquoi, Quebec, in 1865. Since that time cheese factories have increased in number and less and less cheese has been made on the farms. The art of cheese making was first introduced by the earliest French settlers. Cheese is an important article of diet, and the choice of variety is wide as there are some 250 different kinds. These are not ail available in Canada, but there are sufficient to give the housewife a chance to satisfy the tastes of the family. Pamphlet No. 7, new series, on "Why and How to Use Cheese" will help the housewife to provide a variety of cheese dishes, as it contains about forty recipes in which cheese is used. The pamphlet will be mailed on application to Publications Branch, Dept. of Agriculture, Ottawa. Nearly all the protein of milk tained in cheese. Whole milk cheese also contains the vitamine indispensable to growth and mental develop- adults, cheese is one'of the best muscle builders and one which is entitled a larger place in our menus. PROFITS IN POULTRY. Excellent work with poultry has been done on the Experimental Station at Lennoxville, Quebec. A year ago a Barred Plymouth Rock pullet laid 305 eggs in 365 days, and the Report of the Superintendent of the Farm contains further particulars of this pullet officially known as C.H. The eggs laid by this bird had a market value of $12.82, and the cost of feeding her was $2.35, leaving a profit over cost of feed of $10.47. She was hatched on May 1st, and laid her first egg December 5. As a pullet commencing to lay she weighed 3.9 pounds, and at adult age weighed 5.5 pounds. Her best laying period w an egg a day for 33 days. During the cold months of January, February and March she missed laying oi Another test reported was with 125 Barred Rock pullets housed in the permanent straw loft type of laying houses. These pullets commenced to lay November 1st and in the year produced 19,456 eggs which at market prices sold for $834.98. Feed consumed was valued at $315.26 or an average of $2.53 per bird. The average production brought a revenue of $6.67 per bird, giving a profit of $4.14 per bird over cost of feed. During the four winter months. Nov.. Dec, Jan. and Feb., the cost of feed for a pullet has worked out at 77.29 cents. The prevailing market price for eggs during that period averages 66 cents per dozen, so that it requires 14 eggs during these months to cover the feed bill. The Publications Branch, Dept. of Agriculture, Ottawa, will send a copy of the Report of the Lennoxville Experimental Station on request. The report covers the whole field of agriculture, and gives the results of many interesting and valuable experiments. THE PEACE RIVER. The eyes of agriculturists are now turning to the Peace River country, where the winters appear to be comparatively mild, arid where wheat, oats, and timothy seed can be grown and take prizes in world competition. In this wonderful stretch of country often by the middle of April the v " ter grains and grasses are greeni and the first week in May sees the tulips and hyacinths in full bloom. Summer temperatures range around 90, and though early frosts are at times experienced, harvesting is usually well in hand by the rst week in September. Some splendid wheat y>]ds were reported a year ago in the f,......He Prairie and Valhalla districts, -njr from 42 to 70 bushels to the Experimental Sub-Station is fully set forth in the report of that station, which is available for distribution and may be had on application to the Publications Branch, Dept. of Agriculture, Ottawa. The Peace River country is developing very rapidly, and the agriculture practiced is very diversified. Success is being achieved in all branches including grain, dairying, poultry and beekeeping. Life Rebuilt Radio's Inspiration in Rural District is Best Essay Theme (The following article is the essay on "What Radio Means to Me," selected from thousands submitted by women radio listeners throughout the States in open competition.) By Lita Korbe • of the fa i Minn* ren place. Picture a solitary farmhouse standing on a clearing surround by a wheat field and a potato patch, miles away from civilization. The daily grind of toil, unrelieved by any anticipation of refreshing entertainment at its close. Lonely even-| ings spent listening to the droning ] chorus of crickets and frogs after sundown, with only the occasional wall ! of the whlpporwill breaking the monotony. Boys and girls constantly leaving home to seek new horizons where life seems less commonplace. Farm women frequently going mad under the strain of unending toll from dawn to dusk. Then into this harsh, bleak picture comes the radio. What a change it makes in the scene! Magic strains of beautiful music, divine thoughts born in the hearts of rreat composers, all these strangers come into our living room! One night Toscanini and another Damrosch, all by the turn of a dial. Galli Curci, De Luca, Jeritza-- the diction so pure one can hardly believe the singer 2,000 miles away. Another night the Chicago Opera brings into the drab farmhouse all the color and life of "La Boheme." Sunday afternoons Dr. Cadman, away off in Brooklyn, speaks to us in his heart-to-heart talks. Radio is bringing wonders beyond understanding into these far places of civilization. Nearer home is the radio farm institution, with its advice on the more mundane things, such as cooking, crops and poultry raising. Radio offers something for everyone in the home. Endless and fascinating in its charm and variety, radio breathes new life over the land. It awakens new impulses in everyone within reach of its voice. It stirs sluggish brain cells and faculties that have Keep Laundry Waste Out of Sceptic Tank I am putting in a septic tank and now have a 4-inch sewer pipe carrying daily about five barrels of clear water from the milk house, and once Epht a week the water from the laundry.! vVe Would it be alright to connect up the jn c bathroom and toilet and kitchen sink whlc to this sewer pipe and put the septic that tank at its end, or should I put in a' Ephj new line for the septic tank?--C.

"It is believed generally by physicians," says the Health Service, "that most 'colds' are respiratory infections transmitted largely by personal contact to individuals whose physical resistance has been lowered, frequently by exposure. These infections may or may not be accompanied by fever, which is a rise in temperature and one of the body reactions to the invading organism. 'ever is always due to infection except in conditions where the heat regulating centre in the brain is disturbed or damaged, as may occur in sun-itroke, certain head injuries or apoplexy. Fever causes a more rapid destruction to the body tissues, which | must be replaced by the intake of ■ nourishment in sufficient amounts but 1 in as easily digested form as possible.1 With the destruction of the tissues i and the consequent formation of many j waste products, the organs of elimin-' ation, especially the kidneys, are us-1 ually overtaxed and a larger amount j of fluid should be taken. Therefore, diet consisting of such liquids as are high in caloric value, with the addition of certain foods ordinarily classed as 'soft' by the detitians, is advantage- "The emphasis is placed on the more easily digested foods because the blood, whose white corpuscles are the body's greatest protector against infections is urgently needed in the general circulation. Heavier foods naturally call more blood to the digestive tract, while their waste products are usually greater. It is thus largely the kind and type of food rather than the amount (figured in calories) which physicians restrict in infections which include colds and to which fever is simply a reaction." itoUs" births to ev'ery" W*0wVtta.bn* among the 15,000 Negroes of the | their principles as often "aT they Yearn J'Verf fouS^The -tccesTof fhi* population.

II. The Fruits of His Preaching, 1S-20. V. 18. Where Christ was preaching there always followed an awakening . , of the moral life. Jesus had taught "lded that repentance was a needful accompaniment of the kingdom of God. Here we notice how the new converts , were impressed with the need of turn-war 8 ing from their old evil ways. The converts came forward to confess in j public their foinier sins, filled with a wo- awe, possibly by the incident told in I the previous verses. I V. 19.

These superstitions, as always, had a disastrous effect upon the character, and darkened the minds of those who practiced such rites. The bonfire which followed reminds one of the bonfire of vanities resulting from the preaching of Savonarola at Florence. It was a most dramatic spectacle, and was like a public recantation. The estimated value of these books was about ten thousand dollars. III. The Universal Church, Eph. 4: 11-16. V. 11. This letter was written to the Ephesians from the prison-house at Rome, several years after Paul had left the city. It is filled with the noblest teaching on the person of Christ, which is filled with all the fullness of God. But Paul is also anxious to set forth his belief on the wonderful nature of the church, which he regards as the 'Body of Christ." The various leaders of this church are all the direct gifts of Christ, who is responsible for the progress of his kingdom. ' V. 12. The divine gifts of the ministry are meant to fit all true believers for active service in the church. V. 13. As all the different parts of the church work together, each doing what is assigned to him, there will ultimately be gained a condition where all will be like Christ. V. 14. Christ will lead all his followers and will give stability to the members so that no false doctrine o-
