Have Sufficient Horse-power for Cut» Ung--How to Control the Mois- tures' Content--Mustard--Advan- | tages of Dairying. (Contributed by Ontario Department of i Agriculture, Toronto.) When quickly, that is, one hundred or more tons of fodder cut per day, the cutter and the power must be in keeping ! with the work at hand. An eighteen | horse-power engine or motor and a fourteen-inch- blower cutter will handle one hundred tons per Jay. Where smaller silos are used and the farmer desires to, or has to, do the work largely with the farm help, small cutters can be used. Eight-inch | cutters will handle three tons per | | hour if driven by an engine of not less than eight horse-power. Have Sufficient Horse-power Cutting for Claims are often made that two or | three horse-power outfits can do effective work, but this is a mistake. If the work is to be done quickly and effectively with the best use of labor the power should be ample. If it is desired to cut forty tons per day the power should be not less than | Sixty tons per day the | | power should be twelve horse. One hundred tons per day will require an eighteen horne-power engine. The cutter should be of the proper size for the power used. Carrier cytters do not require as much power as do the blower cutters, but the advan- tage of easier erection, simplicity and | | ease of wetting the fodder through | the use of the blower offsets the in- | creased power requirement. Cylinder and knife on fly-wheel types of ma- | chines are equally satisfactory pro- viding of course that they are equally Low priced, poorly con- structed fodder cutters are dauger- lous. Select a cutter with a good reputation, and one that is as well built as a good steam engine Is bullt. Moisture Content Important. | It is essential that there should be {sufficient moisture present in | fodder at the time {it is being put | into the silo to provide the water | requirement for the ensiling 'process | and leave the surplus necessary to | atter the fermentative and cooling i processes have taken place. With suf- | ficlent moisture present in the ensiled | mass there is fermentation temperatures der will pack and the smaller the spaces for air. Corn glazed or denting stage, oats, peas hay making carry sufficient water in the natural juices to meet the re quirement for ensilage. Frequently it is necessary to use corn, oats, peas or sunflowers that have suffered from drouth, or have dried through de- lays or have been permitted to remain: unharvested until long past the best condition for silage making. If so, the shortage of plant juices can be made up by the application of water in quantity sufficient to thoroughly wet the fodder. | How to Apply the Extra Moisture. Water is best applied by running a | stream directly into the fodder cut- ter while the fodder is being passed through and blown up into the silo. With water under pressure, a valve to control the flow and a section of garden hose the process of wetting the cut fodder is easily accomplished. Corn fodder that has remained in the fleld until Deember and become quite dry can be successfully ensiled If suf- ficient attention is paid to wetting and packing thoroughly in the silo. The wetting must be complete and all the air possible pressed out by tramp- ing the 'evenly spread cut fodder ss it goes into the silo. With red clover, alfalfa, peas, oats, vetch, rye, sweet clover, mustard, grasses, sunflower, corn or artichoke stalks, there is little likellhood of overdoing the wetting if a stave silo is used, since such a structure permits any surplus moisture to drain away. With water tight cement concrete or tile silos a little judgment is required in deter- mining the amount of water required to give complete saturation but not flooding. For further information re- garding silo building and ensilage apply to the Department for a copy of Bulletin 287.--L. Stevenson, Sec. Dept. of Agriculture, Toronto. Mustard. Fields that are heavily Infested with mustard can frequently be turn- ed to good account by using such areas for the production of silage fodders. The sowing of peas and oats in the proportion. of one bushel of oats to one bushel of peas per acre (the mustard will come volunteer), will make a very acceptable silage. Mustard has a high feeding value, and the seed in the soil can be ex- hausted In time by following the practice of using mustard infested lands for silage crops, cutting the entire mass, cereal, legume and weeds and putting all in the silo in a finely cut and packed condition. Advantages of Dairying. Dairying maintains the fertility of the soll. Dairying means a steady income. Dairying furnishes regular employ- ment for labor. The market for dairy products ir sora. tilizes ry u unsaleable roughage. Dairy affords opportunity for im- creased income. Dairying utilizes waste land. rt ---------------------- The aim of the dairy farmer should be to keep more and better cows, thus redncing the cost of producing milk. Wednesday morning a shed at the residence of R. G. Stewart, Lyn, was entered and a Ford sedan own- ed by W. G. Trammer, manager of the Bank of Montreal, stolen. The lock of the shed was smashed open and the intruders evidently towed the stolen car out of the village.

Arthur Meighen first commene- | ed the practice of law in Portage le Prairie, he was in demand for police court cases. The plucky and resource- ful present leader of the Official Op- position was a great fighter in those { days of his youth. Everybody who ever lived in Mani- toba before the abolition of the bar recalls the famous wedding celebra- | tions that were staged by the for- | eigners newly arrived from contin- | ental Europe. Whenever a wedding in the foreign quarter was scheduled | among the social events of the even- ing, the city editor always assigned | { the police reporter to watch for a | murder or at least a stabbing affray. | Of course the aftermath in the police | court neat day made work for law-| yers of the province. | Mr. Maighen bad been singularly | successful in defending participants | in these wedding parties, and his | clientele became so large that one | day he realized that if he did not | get, a partner to do his police court | work he would never get time to] study the Liberal platform. So he found an ambitious capable young barrister just starting his career and installel him duly as his partner. | Next day, one of his steadiest cli- | ents came in and asked to see Mr. | Meighen. The partner said Mr. | Meighen was busy but he could attend to his case. Finally the man con- sented. The case was rather lengthy. During the second day of the trial the man fronr Galicia burst into Mr. Meighen's private office. "I 'want you to come to court," he insisted. "My partner is a good lawyer," protested Mr. Meighen. 'Yes, he is," admitted the client, "but you raise better Hell." | Currie and Number 13. It is just about a year ago a se- vere cloudburst caused a washout on | the Grand Trunk Railway just north of Bradford. Coupled with it is an experience of several experiences of Col. John A. Currie, ex-M.P., which | ought to be told. | "I am not superstitious," said the colonel, "but I hope this won't occur | again." 'Leaving Ottawa on Friday night," | he stated, "I had to take berth 13 on the sleeper, I never thought of it until we reached Toronto. The train was an hour late. I missed my | connection for Collingwood, and had | to rush in a taxicab to Davenport { where I caught the Northern Grand Trunk train. On. reaching Colling- wood, where.I had a directors™ meet- { ing, I found that my papers and documents had been left behind. Be- fore starting back for Toronto a friend presented me with two bottles of very old Scotch, for which I was grateful and carried the bag with my treasure carefully. The Pullman por-| ter at Allandale saw me coming and | hastening to earn a tip, grabbed the | bag and tossed it into the car. One | bottle of my treasure was broken and | the 'whole placed smelled like a dis- | tillery. We had not got far from Allandale when the train stopped and after a wait I went out and ipquired | the cause. I was told there was a | wash out and we had to stay there until the Toronto train came up and | transfer. It took several hours (to do this and finally we got back to To-| ronto about one q'elock in the morn- ing. Mindful of what happened after riding in "berth 13," I told the taxi driver who took me home to stop at | every blamed street intersection, as I would take no more chances with that hoodoo." Dew. Where does the dew come from? However "dry" we may think the | air is, it always contains a certain | proportion of moisture, otherwise we | should be burnt by the rays of the] sun. During the day-time the earth, all the bodies on it, and the air are all | absorbing heat from the ssn. With | nightfall these different bodies cease to absorb heat, and only radiate ft-- | "give it out." Since air radiates much more slow- | ly than solid objects, it follows that, | cools the air in its immediate vicinity. ! This cold air, falling to a certain | temperature known as the "dew point," can no longer retain its mols- | ture, and so deposits it as dew on | the nearest and coldest object, gon- erally the tips of grass and the mi- | nute "hairs" on the surface of leaves. | If these bodies are, as in early spring or late autumn, exceptionally cold, the moisture deposited becomes congealed into hoar frost Heavy dews are, of course, most often found in spring and autumn, | because at those periods the greatest | differences between day and night temperatures are experienced. Can a Negro Blush? Yes--just the same as we do, only more rarely. A blush is caused by a conflict of emotions throwing a strain on the Yery fine nervous system. It is seldom that the ordinary ne- gro's emotions give him any parti- culdr cause to blush--his nerves are not so 'frayed" as those of highly- civilized people. When a negro does blush, however, the same things happen as in the case of a white man. The walls of his facial blood vessels become di- lated and overcharged with blood, which is the "blush." Only in our case thie blood shows as a pink flush through our white skin, while the color of the negro prevents anything more than an extra-darkening of his black skin. A Dangerous Expedition. Husband: "What a glorious day! I could dare anything--face anything on a day like this." Wife: "Then com to the milliner's." In England it is unlawful to play filfards in a public place on Sunday, iis? ne Dav or Good Friday.

Of the city's chief directors, men of | worth with hearts of oak, They were not of city birth-right bu* came from the Smalltown folk. Dame Nature never makes mistakes, and it seems her self-willed plan That among the commonality she moulds the master man Perchance a city son may win and wear a worthy crown, most of master minds she moulds in the little country town. But She was partial in her dealing when designing one like me, {And she had but one ambition, that's as far as I can see, | Her pattern was no master piece, but very common place, { Therefore the product of the mould was not a thing of grace, | "Twas not designed I grace the courts nor dwell in city hall, For the humble things of rural life to me appeal and call, As Nature never makes mistakes, why should I plaint or frown, | When undiluted she handed me tho love of the little town.

They're -forbearing and forgiving, they will praise as much as blame, You may have your faults and follies but they'll love you just the same. They may chide you for your vices, but they'll lift you up when down, For the folks are just one household, in the little country town. Smalltown folk may be careless, not right up-to-date in dress, But they share in worth-while bless- ings which the city don't possess. They think as much of '"Horseshon Joe" back thers at blacksmith work, ' As Mr. Mint who runs the bank, the | reeve, or village clerk. Folks may be out of date back there, behindhand in their creed.
