At this season of the year, when iced drinks ave most popular, it is interesting to know, as showing the increased consumption of teas in this country, that the iced tea habit is Lecoming more and more a vogue. Now it is considered. more than a passing fad for particular housewives to serve iced Salada Tea to their fam- ilies and guests. At the soda foun tain, too, iced tea serving is becoming popu and the delightful flavour of Sal 1s made thousands of friends among the women and discerning men who find in it a genuine bracer and a lasting ecoler during the hot spells. It is therefore important thai in this delicious keverage. Iced tea is easy to. make, and to make it properly the particular house 3 [Eases Fo follow these siraple dir- ectiong: : % Secald out a crockery teapot, and while it is warm put.in a level tea- spoonful of tea for every cup or glass Pour on FREELY boiling water (but be sure that it is boiling and allow Attention - Change- of How to Preserve the eetiiiy of eng A= Rian o.

It has been found thal under conditions prevailing during the hot dry months of mid summer the ewes will drop off considerably in their milk few. The lambs receive comparatively little nourishment, and it is better for both ewe and jamb ted, When the lambs are removed from the ewes they will miss little the small amount of milk they would receive, and will soon learn to depend upon pasture. They should receive the very best pasture available. Nothing fits in better than a patch of rape sown at the proper time, so as to be rcady for pasture when the lambs are weaned. Care should be exercised in turning the lambs on the fresh rape to avoid bloating and probable # death. Turn them in during the mid- dle of the day when the rape leaves are absolutely dry and allow them to become accustomed to the change. A field of grass adjoining the.rape pasture will give better results than the rape alons. [If no rape is avail- able fresh clever seeding or second growth clover will give satisfactory results. In addition to pasture a feed of grain once a day will push the lambs along to a good finish. At no time should it be necessary to feed over one-half pound of grain per day to each lamb while on pasture. Frequent change of pasture is beneficial to, and relished by, all classes of stock, and this applies with special emphasis to the case of sheep. It is true for two reasons. Sheep are subject to parasitic dis- eases which may be prevented to a large extent by not pasturing on any one area for too great a length of time. In addition to this they are possibly more fastidious about their food than are some other farm ani-- mals. It is not practicable on every ; farm to arrange for a succession of pastures during the grazing season. However, the same area will sustain considerable more sheep if such an arrangement is feasible. Rye sown early in the fall furnishes a good deal of pasture in the late fall and early spring. After the rye is eaten off this land and will come along for pasture in June or July. Alfalfa and red clover are satisfactory pasturs crops and will serve until the rape is ready. An annual pasture consist- ing of one bushel each of wheat, oats and barley together with eight pounds of red clover provides a good pasture for the early summer months, and the clover coming along in the autumn will give a nice pick- ing. This annual pasture may be sown any time early in May. With- out a great deal of additional laber it is possible to have a succession of erops ready for seeding throughout the entire season.--J. P. Sackville, 0. A. College, Guelph. To Preserve the Fertility of Manure. In fresh manure the plant food materials are not in as available con- dition for growing plants as in well rotted manure. In the storing of manure, however, to get it well rot- ted considerable losses of plant food oceur unless the manure pile is pro- perly packed. If the quickest returns are not wanted following the application of the manure to the soil, then the raa- nure may be added in the fresh con- dition. If this is done in warm wea- ther the manure should be ploughed. in as soon as possible after applica- tion. The total plant food materials present in the manure will thus be added to the soil where they will be prepared by the soil bacteria for use by the growing crops. i The main objections to putting fresh manure on the land are: First, it is not always convenient to do so; second, weed seeds may be numerous in the fresh manure, consequently a heavy weed crop may be expected; third, its action is not so rapid as.in the case of well-rotted manure, but Allow it to remain until serve in glasses with ehip- A thin slice o f lemon with may he added if desired, really unnecessary providing ising the genuine 'SALADA' such an exquisite flavour Town of Sioux Lookout SALE CF LANDS in the TOWN O FSIOUX LOOKOUT for ARREARS OF TAXES.

'Where manure is to be stored in piles or pits until it is ripened, or until it is convenient to use, then the greatest care is necessary to prevent losses of plant food materials from it. In the first place the bottom of the pile or pit should be impervious to water so that leachings from the pile will not occur. Second, it is well to Shave a layer of old well-rotted ma- nure at the bottom. Third, the ma- nure as it is piled up should be well gompacted or tramped down to pre- vent excess of air from getting into it. Fourth, it should be kept moist but not wet. These precautions apply more particularly to horse manure, which is loose and comparatively dry. Unless this is kept well packed and moigt, loss by fire fanging is certain. This is an oxidation process, or fer- metation, set going by certain species of bacteria in the manure. If cow or pig manure is available it should be mixed with the horse manure in the pile, as these are very wet and com- pact and-will give a good consistency to the whole mass.. The main things to be remembered are: First, prevent leaching; second, keep it well pack- ed down and moist.---D. I. Jones, Q. A. College, Guelph.

We were first told that we could not make up a car order, or that if we did we could not get rid of it. IT is a matter of history, now, the only trouble was that we were about five tons short of what was wanted. The seed question is also a live one just now with the farmer. Will it pay to cut the hay or leave it on, the chance of Tgin coming soon enough to fill the heads.

The game between Dryden and Kenora Baseball teams at Kenora, Thursday evening, July 7th, proved to be one of the most interesting in fact exciting games of the first half of series/one of the Shragg Cup. To use the expression of many of the fans it was a "Hum Dinger" from the moment the umpire called "Play Ball," Dryden being the visiting team weve first to bat and by connecting heavily with McDonald, the Kenora pitcher, were able to chalk up two rans in their first time at the plate, Kenora followed with one run--Dry- den, by playing consistent ball grad- ually run their score up to a total six to one at the end of the seventh, having handed Kenora team six straight goose eggs of the largest possible dimensions much to the de- light of the two score Dryden fans who had journed to Kenora to assist in bringing home the bacon, not to mention the eloud of enthusiasts from Keewatin who came to witness the downfall of their Kenora rivals. Kenora, with two men down in the eight inning, through an over- throw to first, were able to score three runs before retired, leaving the score six to four in fover of Dryden. At this period--this of course, gaye the hundred of Kenora supporters an opportunity to root of which they took full advantage and pandemonium broke loose--not to be outdone, the of genuine rooting as has seldom, if Dryden aggregation assembled their fares and put up such an exhibitior ever been out done on a ball field.
