One of the most' coveted awards won by Canada in 1938 was the world's wheat championship, which wentlo F, Lloyd Rigby of Wemb- ley, Peace River district, Alberta, on his sample of Reward wheat. WATER FOR THE COW According to dairy authorities, water is the most important part. of the dairy coHw's ration -since water represen s at least sevens eighths of the material which goes into the milk pail. A chortnge of water will cut down the milk sup- ply more quickly than a shortage of any 8ther part of the ration. Pests show that a cow will con- sume from three to four pounds of water to each pound of dry matter' eaten. The average ani-- mal in the herd will drink around twelve gallons per day. A plenti- ful supply of water is of cssen- tial iniportance in cold weather. GREEN FEED FOR HENS It is advisable to have a part of the hen's rations made up of green feed. Its function is not so much the supplying of food nutri- ents as assisting in the digesting 'of other feeds and keeping the hen in good health. A heavy laying hen will saccumb in a very short time Gnless she is kept in a laxa- tive condition and poultry feeders find green feed a lot more prac- tical than drugs. So far us pos- gible the green feed should be grown en the range to which the birds have access. In the Fall and - Winter green feed may be furnish- ed in the-form of root crops, cab. bage and the like.

Flying Through ~ "The froposphere Hf aerial regearch continues ap its present pace, huge freight and passenger planes will climb into the troposphere and fly under per- fect conditions from one continent to another. Since 1984 conditions in this layer of the atmosphere have been studied and a number of experimental flights already, made. Flying above 20,000 ft., planes will be sealed and carry thelr own air, for above this al, titude the atmosphere is so rare that cigarettes go out through lack of oxygen: : But well above the clouds, the atmosphere Is nearly always fine, hter quality and owing to, the li ess drag or of the alt there is friction.
