But it has been rather definitely ascers tained that the average farmer se. cpres about a third of his living ex~ penses from the farm. ' Re This amount varies, however, Some times it is less than a fifth of the liv- ing costs. This habit of not using the things we grow, is poor economy. In a recent study of farm family expendi tures it was learned that the city re- tail value of the products the farm provides is more than double the farm value. If, therefore, one expects to sell his products and go to tho city stores to replenish his supplies from time to time. he is bound to suffes financially--a thing which no farmes can afford, however well he may be prospering. Then, too, securing one's living from the farm gives a feeling of stability and safety. He not only can cut cust, but he has a feeling that, if necessary, he can get by during the lean years ~years that would prove hazardous if he were obliged to go to the mar- kets for all of his supplies. Therefore, the habit should be formed so that, oven in times of prosperity, the farme er would constantly seek to lay by the highest possible percentage of his live ing from the farm. rr mee To Growers of Medicinal Plants. Some important advice, and advice that should be well observed by those contemplating going into the cultiva- tion of drug or medicinal plants, is given by Mr. John Adams, Assistant Dominion Botanist. He says the prospective grower of such plants | must be very careful to find out whe- of the brood frames with a bag or, heat while they are on the colony. The' i ther he has the right species to start with. In the case of seeds or roots obtained from a. seedsman or nursery- pended upon -as--true to name.

From Montreal comes the news that about 5,000 of the best lambs were shipped during the week to Toronto and Buf- falo. From Winnipeg we learn that there--was---over---two-dolars--margin between good and common calves. Also that good feeders were scarce and the demand broad, especially from Ontario points.
