MMwfiraoc. mmmmummn Prof. W. 3. Graham. head of the Pailtry Department oi O. A. C. has a good suggestion for curbing the fre- quent outbreaks oi leather-pulling and cannibalism when pullets are first put in confinement. Such an outbreak oc- «In-ed at the college plant this fall. A quantity oi fresh raw blood was obtain- ed from the slaughter house and given the pullets as a drink. In niteen min- utes the appetite had so abated that it was safe to put back in the pen the pallets that had been previously at- tacked. One gallon 01 blood. wax given to each 100 pullets. There has not been a renewal. of the trouble. Wintering Bees “Experience has shown that it is bet- ter to winter bees outdoors than in the cellar unless: you. have an exceptionally suitable cellar.“ says 1“. Eric Millen. Provincial. Apiarist. "Eighty per cent of the honey bee‘; in Ontario are win- tered in various wintering cases; out- doors. In Old Ontario almost every beekeeper winters outside. but in Northern Ontario cellars: are used ex- tensively. For successful. cellar winter- ing. the cellar must be absoluetely dark. dry and kept at an even tempera- ture of about ~25 degrees. Poorly in- sulated and damp cellars: make poor winter storage places. for bees. Winter- ing beer: outdoors; meant; more expemc but unles: one has an ideal cellar this method is recommended.

S. manufacture without the payment of duty. bond or deposit. This regulation CouttbeCoet Farm profits are small. They are limited by the selling price of products and, perhaps to a greater extent, by the coat or production. The selling price may be influenced by organizations but each farmer controls his production costs. It is much better to feed and milk cows which each give a prom than ten which pay costs only. To raise crops cheaply there must be a high yield. The cost for the farm. or per acre. or per cow does not tell much.

Shrinkage of Potatoes Experiments conducted by the Di- vision of Botany.

All tubers placed in storage should be mature. healthy and as free from moisture on their surfaces. dirt and mechanical in- jury as possible. The storage of even a small percentage of diseased or field lrosted potatoes endangers all the healthy stock. It is. however. practic- ally impossible to keep large quantities in good condition for prolonged per- iods unless the proper type of storage has always been a feature of the Guelph Winter Fair, should be increas- ingly interesting at the coming show.

The importance of this inter- national. trade in cattle is shown by the fact that since the first of the year ap- proximately 350 pure-bred Holstein cattle have been exported to the United The exhibit of draught horses, which Hon. Mr. Henry informed the deputa- tion that only a few days ago he had been personally over the road referred to. and noted the conditions. He also pointed out that they had unsatisfact- ory results from the keeping open of the highway between Barrie and Orillia last winter, this road being unpaved, and they did not want to have a simi- liar experience on this highway. How- ever, he stated that the matter has been and is still under consideration, and reports were being sought from the engineers as to the advisability 0! keep- ing the unpaved portion of this high- way, No. 6, open from Mount Forest to Owen Sound. The other portion from Owen Sound to Guelph is paved, and in much better condition (or being kept Whether the provincial. highway be- tween Owen Sound and Guelph will be kept open during the winter months for motor trafiic or not has not been decided. The matter was brought to the attention of Hon. George 8. Henry, Minister of Public Highways, on Fri- day, by a deputation from Owen Sound composed of Mayor D. A. Christie, president A. J. Creighton of the Board of Trade, R. D. Little, Sec- retary of the Board of Trade and George Menzies. The necessity of keeping this road open if at all pos- sible was impressed upon the Minister, who was very sympathetic, but who stated that he could not give then a definite answer. No Decision Given 7 v Young Wallwork‘s story was to the eflect that the farmer had paid him very meagre wages for his work, that }he could save no money with such remuneration, that he had no clothes and was afraid of what he might have to endure during the winter, bwhich he had been told was always severe in Canada. Discouraged and without friends or relatives in this country, he wanted to get back home 'to England, and felt the best way to accomplish this purpose would be to get into trouble with the police, who then might deport him. Mr. Beamish informs us that the youth has since been released from bail and given in charge of the Owen Sound branch of the Sons of England, who will look after his welfare. â€"Hanover Arriving in Hanover on Tuesday of last week he proceeded to carry his plan into effect. and went to the base- ment of the town hall. wherein is located the police office. Utilities Com- mission office and firemen room. After smashing every window in sight and causing damage to the extent of about $15, he phoned Constable Beam- ish and told him he was wanted at the police office. When the latter ar- rived on the scene in a few minutes. Wallwork confessed to the damage and told him of his desires, so Mr. Beamish placed him under arrest and took him to the county jail at Owen Sound. Constable William Bcamish of town had to deal with an unusual case last week. but which apparently has had. a quite happy ending. It concerned John Wallwork. a healthy young Eng- lishman of 19 years who came to this country some months ago and has been working on a farm in the Paisley dis- tricc. After carrying his wife and baby out of the car, to the roadside, Mr. Morrow ran to a nearby house for help. There being no phone in that house. he hast- ened to another and phoned to Hanover for a doctor. On the arrival of the doctor. he found the two in a bad way. but they had. regained consciousness. They were brought into town and given further treatment, and were able later to continue their journey to Tara. The doctor said that had. they been exposed to the fumes a few moments longer. the result would almost surely have been fatal. Give Help to Discouraged Man On examination of the car in the garage, it was found. there was a leak in. one of the pipes from which gas. es- caped. to the interior of the car.â€" Hanove: Pose. Overcome by Fumes in Closed Car Monoxide gas nearly cost the lives of the wife and baby of m. Alvin Morrow of Palmerston on Saturday evening last. They were motoring to Tara to visit at the homes of Thos. Tambling and George Morrow. On nearing Hanover. Mrs. Morrow com- plained of something hurting her eyes. but, the car window being open. she did not suspect fumes from the engine. A little farther on the road Mr. Morrow. who was driving with his wife and child on the seat beside him, felt the baby struggling and waving its hands, and. when he asked his wife what was wrong with the baby she did not reply. He stopped the car and found Mrs. Morrow and the baby unconscious. Alfalfa seed production in Ontario was again light in 1929. The acreage left for seed is not believed to have exceedd 10,000, which may yield from 60 to 120 pounds per acre, about the same as in 1928. An abundance of sweet clover for seeding purposes is expected to be available next spring. Timothy seed production in Ontario is reported as normal, a large proportion coming from the Navan district of Russell County. Production of blue grass in Southwestern Ontario is estim- ated at 50 per cent of normal. The seed is reported to be particularly heavy per bushel this year. may befromthree toiourmimon pounds of seed, which will constitute in Old Ontario for many years. The quality of the seed is reported good. The crap in Northern Ontario is prac- tically a failure this year. Alsike acreage in Old Ontario was In Northern Ontario. Temiskammg District the total production or alsikc is not expected to exceed 10,000 bushels. about half as much as last year. 1928 and yields per acre have varied from 60 to 500 pounds, low yields being general in the southern and lake coun- ties and high yields in the clay country between Toronto' and Georgian Bay. In Other Communities THE DURHAM CHRONICLE It need hardly be said that it is the duty of Canadian churches to make sure that no group, whatever its lan- guage or race is left without the or- dinances of the church. European churches cannot effectively follow their people to this country, and the new- comers can be neglected only at the peril of the religious life of the nation. Every group in Canada without relig- ious services is a challenge to the churches to provide the immigrants with facilities for public worship in the language the people know, and as long as there are people landing on our shores whose mother tongue is not English, foreign language churches will be a necessity. When the younger members of the group have learned the English language, these churches should become bilingual, but the olderl folk and those newcomers who have not learned the language of the country will not be attracted to church services conducted in an unfamiliar language. While the Eurpean immigrants create for the church an increasingly difficult problem, they confront it with an op- portunity of rendering the country a real national service. THE CHURCH AND THE EUROPEAN II‘r‘lI‘IIGRAJNI'lI Weather prophet Bowes of Chats- worth, now in his 73rd year. and a ripe prognostigator, tells us that winter will set in about the 27th inst; that we will have a real hard winter and that Christmas will be one of the coldest in years. On the other hand, the Toronto chap who issues the daily weather forecasts, is skeptical of the Chats- worth seer’s declarations. and be de- clares that Prophet Bowes is more often wrong than right. So you can pay your money and take your choice.
