These were sown on May 17 and pastured from July 5th until early in August. Rape which was slightly injured by pasturing too early,- supplied much needed pastur- age when the cereal seedings had been eaten off. Vetches although slow of growth were readily eaten and stood pasturing well. © Sweet clover, was also late in maturing and eaten only when no other feed was avail- able. It might .be stated that beyond a comparison of these crops from~the standpoint of palatability, recupera- tive power, 'and ability to withstand trampling and pasturing generally, "no data was available to show the cost of production one crop against the other.

The findings at Lacombe would war- |. rant the recommendation of alfalfa) for early pasture with a block of rape to supply green food for hogs when they attain considerable size. Where alfalfa' may be successfully grown, the swine grower would be well, ad- vised in retaining a-small block for swine feeding ~ purposes. Failing alfalfa, cloyer will give almost' equal- ly good results. With neither of the legumes available, results at Lacombe indicate that a cereal pasture second only to the legumes, is to be obtain- ed by the use of a heavy seeding (3 bushels per acre) of oats and barley, or wheat, oats and barley. Any one of the pastures above mentioned should be followed by rape seeded early in June, preferably in drills 27 inches apart. : At Lacombe the results of the use of self-feeders versus hand-feeding on pasture, while not sufficiently verified by repeated experiment, would | indicate that where hogs are fed to a finish the self-feeding method shows most economical gains, It has been proven where corn is the principal grain used, self-feeding is more economical than hand feeding.

The highest possible recognition of the Newfoundland regiment has been accorded by King George. Official an- nouncement is made that the King had conferred the prefix "Royal" upon the body of troops representing New- foundland because of its bravery on- the _ battlefields and Flanders, Field Marshal Haig, in making known the award, in a letter to Colonel -Woodruffe, commanding the New- foundland contingent, wrote: : "Tf have much pleasure in informing you that His Majesty the King, in view of the magnificent bravery and resolute determination shown by all ranks, has been graciously pleased to approve the grant of the title 'Royal' to the Newfoundland regiment.

This is an expensive and unnecessary plan | of feeding. - To remedy this I aim | to have every chicken house or set of | chicken houses. provided with a ' chicken-proof yard so that at critical | times during' the year all of the chick- 'ens may be confined. 1 We make these poultry fences of woven wire, using strong fence posts which. we set substantially in- the ground. A six-inch fencing board is placed around the bottom of the fence and one on the top just above the wire, This makes a good brace for the posts. Above this top board is stretched a strand of barbed wire. This makes a fence six feet high. If an occasional venturesome biddy. scales this fence, we clip a few feath- | ers from one wing.. In addition to the advantage men- tioned there are several other reasons why it is important to have a place- to confine farm flocks. In the spring' of the year especially here are a number of days that it is an advan-! tage to keep a flock confined in order. to icin the egg machinery steadily | working.
