By B.C Bilford, Domi Husbandima: The indications are that new laid eggs will be as scarce this winter as usual and if extra attention is. not paid to getting the laying stock into condition and housed early, the sup- ply of 'eggs may not be as plentifyl even as they were last winter. Though the present is too late to begin to prepare for early winter eggs. it is a good time to make the best of what we may have by get- ting everything ready Defore the cold weather comes. The begin- ning was made labt spring when the carly pullets were hatched, for only the early pullets can be depended on to give eggs during November and December, the hens, as a rule, will {not lay many eggs until the end of | January or February, it is therefore {from the well matured pullets that | the high priced eggs may be expect- | ed apd in order to get the most out of these, care must be taken as from now until laying time is a more eriti- cal time in the life of the pullet than most poudtrymen imagine. ' ults ry nion How To Get Ready. Keep no stock that will producing. Kill off the old hens that will not lay until .the spring. Market the immature pullets and all surplus cockerels as scon as "they are ready. Give the rest of the pullets every opportunity to develop and get into laying condition before winter sets in. Put these pullets into their win- ter quarters, early. The unneces- sary handling or changing of pullets from one place to another just when they are about to begin to lay is disastrous and in some cases will re tard laying for several weeks. Give the pullets every chance to get ac quainted with their winter quarters in plenty of time and feed liberally £0 that they will start to lay before the cold weather. Do not feed sparingly but judie- iously. Though feed may be high, it does mot pay to stint the layers Feed them grain in a litter on the floor and as the weather gets cold er increase the quantity of litter. In addition to the grain see that they have either a hopper, with dry mash constantly before them, or if prefer red, give it in the shape of a moist mash once a day. Have the house clean, preferably white-washed, and allow plenty of sunshine in We have found that with a shed roofed house, a board protection along the front of the hOuse as high as 18 in ches from the floor is an advantage; from this up glass and cotton in the proportion of one of glass to two of cotton, make the most ideal fr nt for the average Canadian house, Why Not More City Hens. Many town and city people could pot only produce sufficient eggs to keep their table going but have en- ough eggs left over that would go a long way towards supplying the househwd with groceries, ete.

Tist of producer: Dring the "fiscal year ending Mirch 91st, 1914, 'over 1114 million "dozen eggs were imported into Can- ada, These came from Great Britain, Hong Kong, China, Japan, New Zea- land, and United States. Surely Canadiad poultry keepers can syup- ply the demand this year. If all help in this matter there should be no lack of eggs and if care is exer cised in the production there should be a good revenue to-the producers and the consumer ought not to pay such exorbitant prices as sometimes have been asked in tne time of scar city be non are where § not be kept their way into provide a large food.

Me. John G. McDonald, Pictou, N. S., writes:--**1 used Dr. Chase's Ointment for itching pikes, and found that the first application gave relief. After using a few boxes of the oint- ment I was completely cured, and can recommend it highly to all suf- ferers from this disease. You have my permission to use this letter for, the benefit of others.' Mr. James M. Douglass, Superior Junction, Ont, writes:-- "For about {six years I suffered from piles, and often could not work for two or three idays at a time, So great was the suf- {tering from pain and itching. Doe- tors treated me in vain, and I-tried imany treatments: before I came across Dr. Chase's Ointndent. Two {boxes of Dr. Chase's Ointment cured ime, and for several months I have had no return of this annoying ail- ment," There can be no doubt that Dr. Chase's Ointment is the most effec- tive htainable for ater form of treme prices. This is always the nse and especially will it be so this winter when cverything the ¢onsum- er has to buy will be dear and mcncy to. pay for it scarce. It will be a loval act to study how cheap'y the eggs can be produced rathes than t ew much can Be charged for them Prof. Edward Brown, the veteran poultryman of England, made a sug- gestion the other day to Englisdt breeders, which suggestion even from this distance sounds good. He thought that as so many poultry breeders in Great Britain bad done business with Belgian poultrymen, who in all probability were killed, or who at least have had all their stock destroyed. that these English breeders, as soon as the smoke of battle had cleared away, might don- ate to their old customers and friends in Belgium, sufficient breed- ing stock to engble them to start up again. This suggestion -of Prof. Brown's is worthy of a Britisher and though Canadian poultry breeders may not be able to do this, they can show their loyalty by producing as many new laid eggs as possible for Lis winter and at the least posiible cost. Strictly new laid eggs in the winter time are worth a good price and the man who can produce them deserves credit and extra remune tion but let us hope that this winter by better care and management we w.1l have enough new laid eggs that can supply the consumers at. a which is within the reach of 10s¢ who must have them.

In the United States as well as in Canada farmers are being advised to turn every available acre to the production of wheat next year. The thing may easily be over-done. Speaking on what is advised Rural New Yorker says: "Thus far the fighting has not seriously interfered with the harvests. The grain In both Germany and France has been cut by women and old men, and the same workers will put in a ngw crop as best they can, There witli be a shortage, of ¢ourse, and Europe must | look "to Africa, Australia, - South America for part of its food. It is not likely that the English grain crops will be smaller. They may be larger. It will never pay to turn over old or unsuitable land, give it a hasty fitting and then sow grain just for the sake of obtaining a large acreage. The thing to do is to in- crease the grain acreage a little, and work the fand just as well as you possibly cdn before putling in - the seed. Try to grow more grain to the acre Tagher than to scratch over no] ronto have asnounvad their intention of docking all horned "animals §2 per head after January 1, it behooves the beef man to comply with the reg- ulations. This is a simple matter when the calf is young. As soon as the buttons begin to form under the skin, which is soon after a 'calf is born, clip the hair from the skin over these butions Moisten the end of a stick of caustic potash "in water and rub it over the skin where the button is forming. Care should be taken to prevent any of the water and. potash from getting Into the calf's eyes or on the skin, except where the button is forming, as it i$ a very strong material and wilt make the skin and eyes sore and} may cause blindness. Persons hand- ling potash should be careful to keep it from their fingers. It is best to wrap the end handles with paper. If a scab does not form with the first application or within a day or two, apply it a second time. There is no danger in using this material pro- vided care is taken to keep it out of the calve's eyes, Toronto Weekly Sun. Make Ready For Winter Eggs. Preparations that are to be made in the poultry yard for winter should be made early in the fall so the hens will become accustomed to the changes and have time to get back to laying before cold weather sets in. Now is the time to do the work. Remove all the old litter and nest- ing material and burn-it. If allowed to accumulate in thé yard it will serve as a wholesale incubator for disease germs, which may mean death to your fowls. The best plan is always to keep everything clean It is the cheapest, too. After everything has been remov- ed from the house and it has had a thorough scrubbing, give it a good painting all over with whitewash and a disinfectant made of crude carbolic acide. If you cannot do this any of the commercial disinfectants will do. Paint roost with it an hour or two before the hens go to roost and it will do away with the lice If you are planning' any new buildings or yards, they should be made at once, for it will be fatal to the production of winter you wait until cold weather The hens naturally require time to get accustomed things Gather a good supply of road dust for use in the dust box this winter ihere is nothing that the he juy more than a good dust bath and it is by far the cheapest li: reme!y you can get. Gather up a bars» fall and you, will have enoug: to last all winter. If the nights your locality in eges, comes some to new 4 en get pretty cold in the winter time it will be a good plan to make roost ing closets for the laying hens It will keep up the production of eggs It costs little and will more than re pay you for the trouble and expense of making it. If you need new food hoppers, get them now. Nothing like being pre- pared for winter when it comes. If we keep putting things off we are apt to forget them altogether. -- CHESLA C.
