A lot of hay was lost but many still had some in the barn from last year. Wet weather fesulted in a lot of wheat sprout- ing and. continued damp weather has caused a lot of oats to sprout or to be threshed with such a high Moisture content that it can't be stored without drying -- and not too many farmers have facilities. for this. With this situation locally goes the smaller ¢rop of feed grain in the west and the steady though $radual rise in feed prices which is making many farmers look for less expensive feedstuffs. Some are available but it is advisable to figure out whether they are cheap- ér in the long run -- whether you are buying any more food value that will put weight on animals or poultry or make hens lay eggs for Tess money. Sometimes an appar- ently expensive feed will turn out to be cheaper in that you can get More gain per dollar. Quite a quantity of mixed feed @ats has arrived at Great Lakes élevators recently. Normally we don't see much of this and some people may not be too familiar with it. It is a low-priced feed and is perfectly alright for cows, beef @attle or sheep over one year old but it is not: considered good bus- inéss to use mixed feed oats as the complete oat section of a ration for younger animals or poultry -- maybe half of the oat portion of any ration could be made up of mixed feed oats for these: Why? Mainly because the fibre content is higher -- up to 15 per cent. Also, the protein. content. is usually lower than better grade oats so more must be fed in or- der to get the balanced ration. All of which means the total digestible nutrients are less in mixed feed oats so any farmer would be well advised to check. the prices of lower grade feed oats against the price of mixed feed oats to see which is the better buy. There is another point to be con- sidered. Mixed feed oats has to be over half wild. oats -- or black oats -- and there could be some weed seeds in there. Actually, it is whai is left after the higher grades of feed oats have been re- moved at the cleaning plant and, according to uhe Canada Foodstuffs Act, must not contain more than 49 per cent good grain. Fine grind- ing will eliminate much of the danger of spreading wild oats seed but it will not eliminate the danger of spreading all weed seeds. This is true also with wheat screenings although there is a grade of these -- No. 1 Feed Screenings. Wheat that must not Haileybury Curling Club Lounge SATURDAY, SEPT. 16 8:15 p.m. GO!

COBALT-HAILEYBURY CURLING CLUB Due Bills Reeve Harry Groom at Bucke Township meeting on Monday complained that the township has too many cemeteries and too many on relief. His remarks were sparked by a bill presented for the cut- ting of weeds at the entrance to Mount Pleasant Cemetery, just north of Haileybury. 'Bucke provides cemetery space for Protestant and Catho- lic Cemeteries for Haileybury and Cobalt," he said, 'and we have too many bills to pay for the living to be able to afford too much for the dead."
