But if the land is heavy and the soii is frozen under the grain rows, these hollows often fill with water in winter, and this en- tirely destroys the plant, for itsroot, being held tight by the frost, the ex- ta rision of the water in freezing snaps the leaf growth just at the surface of the ground, making it impossible for it to Sprout again. Spring grain is n0t subject to this injury, and there- fore for spring grain drill seeding has advantages over broadcasting, es- pecialls if there is a fertilizer attach- ment whereby fertilizers may be dis- tributed in close contact with the seed. This has proved so great a benefit to grain cram on loan; land drill from sinking so deeyly in the soil, and thus keep the points of the distributing tubes near the surface. When the grainiield is prepared with the disc harrozv or the sglrmg tooth cultivating harrow the sod IS mellow- ed much deeper than it should be. To sow the grain on the surface of a mel- low seed bed, and then merely-run a smOOthmg hurrow over it to press it 11110 the soii, leaves the gram in bet- terrondition for growmg than L0~COV- er 1L as deeply as the drill 18 sure to AA DRILLING GRAIN . Many old farmers believe that with modern improvement in cultivating implements, the grain drill. for seed- ing grain is not much. if any impmye- ment. over the old-fashioned practice of broadcasting the seed and harrow- ing it in. The drill distributes the seed more evenly than can be done by hand sowing, but the grains are left in lines closely crowding each other, and between two ridges which when beaten down by rains or melting snows cover the seed and plant too deeply. When the drill was first introduced it was reckoned an advantage that its tubes made some impression on the clods which the cultivation at that period usually left on the surface. But the clods prevented the wheels of the Pumpkins, if taken from the field before hard frosts, and then judici- ousl} fed to cows from) the manger, form taluable supplemental fall feed. \Vhen r00t crops, as mangles, turnips and carrots, are pulled, the tops should be saved and fed fresh to cows, for there is much. milk in them. Corn fodder out early, before it has been touched by the frost, and then well stocked to preserve it bright and green, loses little of its succulent val- ue fed after frost has come. It should be out up and fed from the manger, where the cattle cannOt trample half of it under foot, as would follow where spread on the fields. AL no season of the year is milk more profitablefor butter and cheese making than, during the autumn months, but a limited yield 3.03118 only a limited amount of profit. Besides attending to the bodily com- fort of cows as cool weather advances, their food supply should be kept at its maximum -instead of allowing the vagaries of ghe season to regulate it. ' 1 can only exyiain it by the hypO- thesis that most dairylnen consider the fall shrinkage of milk inevitable, which I contend is a mistake, at team to the extent now prevailing. . One has got to be but half way 0b- servant to notice how rapidly cows that are not sheltered shrink in milk yield following cold nights. It has seemed strange to the writer many times that this fact was not more gen- erally appreciated and remedied by dairymeu at large. To get them accustomed to the new shelter drive them into it at dusk a few times, and they will find it them- selves thereafter. :A few salt boxes attached to the wall will also bait them to the place more surely. Where, on the majority of dairy farms, cows receive no shelter at all in autumn, until they go mm the win- ter stable at “freezing-a4) time,” this W111 keep- them from suffermg and from physical and lacteal decadence. By leaving it open on" one side,‘and of sufficient capacity to comfortably house all of the milch stock, no floor or stalls need be provided. The ground under it should be elevated and well drained, however, and kept covered with dry litter for comfortable bed- ding. ' Such a shed need not be erected for the purpose alone of protecting cows on cool autumn nights, for it will serve as a shelter against cold rains and .hot sun alike. In miy opinion no pasture should be without one. A shed tightly boarded and open on the least exposed side will answer this purpose admirably, and add many more pounds of milk to the fall yield of cows. It is best situated near the exit gate of the pasture, so that the cattle may be readily found and driven up in the morning. At this season of the year it is too cool for cows to lie out in open pasture at night, and not cold enough, P91“ haps, to warrant housing them’ in the winter stable. An intermediary place should be pcrovided, that will afford sufficient shelter to keep the milch cows from getting chilled through the prevalent cold dews and frosts of.

Agricultural i ‘ if the land frozen under way was built from \Vinnipeg to the bay, good coal could be laid down in Manitoba for $3 to $4 a ton. The formation of the country is most pecu- liar, and indicates that the land is rising. The rocks rise along the shore of Lhe bay in some places rco a fneight of 1,500 feet. -In other places there are grand beaches and limestone. The layers of rock run at right angles to the rivers, looking as if the water pressure was pushing up the land. In some localities on the mainland, as well as 0 several of the, islands in theobay, the explorers found large de- slag, as if a volcano had been at work, Besides the iron and coal, the deposits of gold, silver, capper, tin, etc.; are described as enormous. Specimens are now being analyzed. Olf feeding for securing the largest amount of grain from the feed. It is not always a question of what will produce the greatest amount of pork, but how can I get the largest amount of pork, from uhe fooid grown on my farm, being those for which it is best adapted. The chief expense in grow- ing hogs is the feed. - Therefore it is a matter that - is entitled to the greatest study of the farmer. It is apparent to everyone that the more lgain that can be got out of pastures lthe cheaper is the production 'of pork, land experience will teach that some g grain with the pasture is more profit- table than an exclusive grass feed. i'l‘here are a great many root feeds and , vegetables that have but little feeding (qualities, except that they enable the lanimal to get more out of his grain. lThe hog that doesn’t eat, doesn’t grow land doesn’t gain and is no profit to lthe owner, therefore it is necessary to lsee that the hog is kept in a condition “that will give him a natural and lstrong appetite to insure the best fgrowth and profit. It is not a good jplan to overfeed. It is also import.- iant that feeding should be done regu- glarly at stated times. There is no- :thing that will throw an animal out of feed and out of condition and in . an unprofitable state so .‘quick as con- ;stipat‘ion, and this should be provid- Eed against. It is the forerunner of 3 various diseases and complication. The specimens of coal found there have been analyzed. It is a pure an- thracite and is shown to contain 66 per cent. of carbon and 34 of ash. It will be remembered that A. P. Low of the Dominion Geographical Survey of Canada recently returned from an elmplorauory tour through a part of this country and reported that it is the coming mineral producing region of the American continent. 'l'hese valuable deposits are already known to extend over a country at least six hundred miles long by four hundred broad. The Americans intereSted in its development, wiil, it is understood, begin operations early neXL season ior the pmrpose of ascertaining more pre- crsely the value of the enormous wealth that they now control. For {his reason they are to outfit a steamer for Hudson Bay, placing on board $100,000 worth of supplies and materials. This vessel will have to go around by way of Hudson Straits, which is the route followed by the only ship of the year that reaches the various Hudson Ba) Company’s forts on the bay with mails and supplies from Eng- Land.

This expedition went north iaSL June and the last of its members have just returned and filed claims on a large tract of val- uable lands, containing gold, silver, copper, precious stones, nickel, iron, Cinnabar and gypsum. The Klondike Said to be Ouidoue by the ilmium Bay Mineral Lands. The last members of the exploring party to return from the newly dis- covered mineral lands in Labrador and Ungava, on the east side of Hud- son Bay, gOt back recently, andde- clare that the mineral wealth of that region puts the Klondike in the shade. The story of the discovery, or rather of the re-discovery of these mineral lands, reads almost like a romance. Some time ago a Western Canadian, J. A. Osborne, of the Rainy Lake Her- ald, came in‘LO possession of an old yellow leaved diary of a former em- ployee of the Hudson Bay Company, long ago dead. in this diary he came upon a minute description of these de- posits, on the eastern shore of Hud- son Bay, in the vicinity of Great and Little \Vhale rivers, in what is known as Ungava Land. The account." was so clear that Mr. Osborne had no difficulty in having so at the least expense to the pro- ductive capacity of his farm, says a writer. The man Who sells grain produced upon this farm year after y-uear will soon exhaust his farm, while the farmer who feeds the 'pro- ductions of his farm will not only maintain but may improve the fer- tility of his soil. Farmers as a rule do not give sufficient thought to the food question, as to the best method HOG FEEDING. The hog is generally termed the money maker for the farm.
