Eoconmgc this Splendid Bird on the Farm. (Contributed by Ontario Km.“ ot Agriculture. Tor n ) Why not have lots of nail? When they were plentiful we had a great! deal of first-class gunning. By gnn- ' nin: overmuch and not protecting them in the winter, we have almost lost the Bob-White of our boyhood. Now we have the potato bug and gun tor it with parks-green. Why not have the quail, plus the sport of gunning, back, and get rid oi name ‘of these potato bugs at the same ‘ time? How We Lost the Quail. In the old days the farm boy shot a few brace or quail. The city sport came out, and a few brace were not enough for him. Further and fur- ther afield you had to so. The brush heaps, natural shelter for the quail, were cleared. up and â€"‘ Ann-..“ -.- The brush heaps, natural Ineuer for the quell, were cleared. up and burned. Every foot of ground was cleared for the plough or for pasture. I Then when the heavy snows came. followed by sleet, there we: lose and lens shelter. The hard crust stayed on the snow for two or three days. One-halt ot the quail's food con- sists ot weed seeds, one-fourth of (rain, mostly taken from the stubble, (1 about fifteen per cent. of insects. e insects chiefly consumed are po- tato beetle, cucumber beetle, chinch bugs, wire worms, etc. In winter theyl destroy the seeds of 126 kinds of noxious weeds. A conservative esti- mate of amount of food eaten each day would be two ounces. Can you see how your potato bugs would dis- appear it the Bob-White were plen- tiful? The United States Department 0! Agriculture states that each quail on the farm is worth $20 to the farmer. Now comes the question 0! again having these birds plentiful. It can- not be done in a day, nor must you exgect it in a year. ._---n 1-00 W‘horn uyvup u. u. .- ,, There are some quail left. There may be a few on your farm. Protect them. They are worth gold dollars to you. Allow no hunting whatever. As you have seen, outside of hunt- ins, the lack of shelter and feed dur- ing, and after winter storms, is the chief cause of the disappearance of this valuable bird! Bow to Entice the Quail Back. Place heaps of brush in the fence corners. Plant a Virginia Creeper, or Wild Cucumber seed, and instead of a brush heap, it will become a beauty spot. 0n the brush heap or a stump place several iorktuls of buck- wheat straw, unthrashed. This will mat together and make a perfect pro- tection, as well as supply food. Tie I a number of corn stalks around a small tree or stake, in a protected situation. Leave an Opening facing! south. Scatter oats, wheat, buck-i wheat, chart, barn-sweepings, around, most of it inside the shelter, with'a away. Do it now. Get the quail coming to the grain. When a storm comes, they will make for the shelter. Never neglect it, especially in stormy weather and particularly after sleet storms. Remember what it is worth to You- UV Jvuo In the spring, sow some buck- wheat and rye in the fence corners, around your shelters. Let it ripen there. Quail are very fond of it and will remember it when the storms of winter prevent them teeding else- Where. They, too, are most likely to Chickens. ' The beautiful little Bob-White! Do' you know that it they are protected, they will become almost as tame as chickens. They will wander amongst your potato patch and repay you many tlmea over for the attention you have given them.

There is a gold rusn on w nuuyu township, in northern Quebec, to Labrador and now to the Soo dis- trict.

The initial shipment of cattle since the Embargo removal was recently inSpected by the Hon. W. P. Mother- well, Minister of Agriculture, in the C. P. R. stock yards, Montreal. They were stall-fed Ontario cattle from along the Canadian Pacific west of. Toronto. with the exception of one car load of Western cattle. the lat- ter being in the best condition de- spite the fact that they had had a 28 hours run from North Bay. The minister expressed the opinion that the cattle being shipped were of the first quality. It has remained for the Canadian Pacific experimental farm at Strath- more to demonstrate beyond the pos- sible shadow of doubt that the in- eXpensive trench silo system of pro- viding winter fodder for cattle is, under favorable conditions, uito equal to the costly structures 1' ich have in the past been utilized and that the silage is in every sense ex- cellent.
