The usual autumn rush of boss has now commenced with the gradâ€" ual lowering of the prices paid. The declining price results in the selling of unfinished hogs because many unload before the quotations recede tart rer. This should be discouraged. A twofold result is reflected by such action. The first is that the price is sent down much farther than it would otherwise go and sec- ondly, less valuable hogs are sent to the packers, as there is always a sutl’icient number of light stock on the market to supply the small de- mand for it than if the pigs were kept till they had reached the prop- er weight. At the present time, it' possible, evory hog producer should see that hi5 stock is brought to market size of 180 to 220 pounds at home. When Canadians are faced with the neces- sity of building up their foreign markets it behooves everyone to do his little bit in assisting. Such ac- tion will result in better prices lat- er.

To them the following item may be of interest. It is worthy of careful perusal, at least, and should allay any fear that this institution is not worthy of the whole-hearted support of .‘Lintario farmers :. "One. Hf the aims of the Field Hus- bandry Department of the t). A. C. has been to bring about increased acre yields of high quality on the. individual farms, With this object in view over 2,500 varieties of farm craps obtained from i‘lill'erent parts at the world have been grown under test and their adaptabilities for On- tario eonditiims rarel'ully studied. From some of the varieties of great- est merit. improved strains and var- iefies have. been obtained through i-areful selections from large nur- ai-l'lifai. planted by hand, with thou- sands of seleeted seeds. .\s a last rewrt, controlled eross-t’ertilization has been used to originate new var- levies superior to those obtained tnrougli seiertion from the varieties of highest record. For some time past we have grown and examined annually an average of about 50,000 h} brid plants of farm crops. The piant improvement work has in- rliided grain, forage, root. and tuber rrops. "According to the reports of the Ontario Department of Agriculture the last twenty-one. years’ increases in acre yields of barley, oats and wmter wheat, in comparison with the two previous decades amounted w 249,730,411 bushels, which, valued at average market prices reached a total of auto-£9,877.71. This is over thirty times as much as the net ex- pendlture of the Ontario Agricultur- "The varieties of highest merit obtainable by plant breeding of the College are distributed to the farm'- ers for eo-operative experiments on their own farms. If they prove worthy under the local conditions they are soon increased by the ex- perimenters themselves at no addi- tional cost for seed. The surplus is often sold to neighbors and to othâ€" ers to mutual advantage. Through this process the acre yields of sev- ernl of the farm mom of Ontario have been increased considerably. These increases will be even greater as some of the new varieties become better established and as others are intrOduced. Thur-day, loan)" 8, i933. Results of Field Husbandry Experiments. Premium For Runs. The season has now arrived when rams are in demand. As usual the sheep division, Department of Ag- riculture, Ottawa, are still giving the 810.00 premium to those who have never used a pure bred regis- tered ram before. Approximately 200 farmers in Grey County received this premium in the past two years. All applications must be in to the Department not later than December 31 of the year in which the ram was purchased. Application forms may be secured by writing to the (trey County Branch. Dwartmi’ynt or Agri- culture, Markdale. 31 College from its commencement in 1874 to the present time." Durim.r the past summer 26 Bacon Hog Clubs have been organized and started in Grey County. It is possible to organize as many more if inter- ested parties would immediately get busy. Every. assistance will be given parties desiring inform'ation if re- quests are made to the Department at Markdale. Only hogs of approved Bacon type are sent to each club free of charge. “DON’T GET IN WRONG WITH THE NEWSPAPERS" A very wise and successful public man once remarked in tendering ad- vice to a young aspirant for public favor, “Don‘t get in wrong with the newspapers. You may think you can fight them, but they have a way of coming back that is surprisingly effective. The newspapers have made and broken many public men.” The important question is, "What is meant by getting in wrong with the nowspapors?” No editor worthy of tho 'nanne will attack a man be- rauso of personal pique or on trivial protoxt. The public man must have dorm snmo'thing to gut "in wrong" with the newspaper, and whom he (loos he probably deserves all that is coming to him. Newspapers have brought many worthy men into prominence who ntherwim- would never have been heard of. Newspapers have, intro- duced in the public many men who haw merited all the prominence given them. Sometimes the news- papers have been kindly remember- ml, and much ot'tener they have been forgotten by the beneficiary. Many men have sought. and been willim.r to pay for the "boosting" that a lli‘\\'.~[l{llwi‘ can give them, but few editors are for sale, and when boosting: articles appear they are Usually placed along.r with advertis- iu;..r matter. A good and worthy man has l'reipio-ntly been helped by an unwarranted attack of a partisan newspaper. but generally speaking the ailyantage is with the newspap- er. The better way for a man who wants the help of a newspaper is for him to go to the editor and have. a heart-tiHieart talk with him. If a nt‘WspaDt‘l‘ attacks a man unjustly and that man will lay his case before the editor, the chances are that the newsliaper will be fair enough and manly enough to retract its unjust- iiled attack. There are, however, many who think they can success- fully overcome the fair criticism of a newspaper, but they find out in the end that a well-conducted and generally fair neWSpaper has an influence on the public mind that is not easy to overcome and should not be trifled withâ€"Winchester Press. LITTLE JIMMY MYONTHEJOB Bacon Hag Clubs. (I‘here is no particular moment in a girl‘s life when the stars are more propitious for matrimony, as the fortune-tellers say, than another. So much depends upon the character or the girl, upon the man, upon the circumstances by which she is sur- rounded. Some girlsbloom earlier than others. Sometimes a girl gets a chance at a prince of a man she would be foolish not to grab at any age. Sometimes a girl has an un- happy home that she does wisely to get out of as soon as she can. Dorothy Dix, in The London Adver- tiser, Gives Well-Reason“ Romy. Generally speaking, however, I think the right. age for a girl to mar- ry is between 22 and 30, for by that time she is mature enough to know her own mind and have her taste in men formed, and she is still young enough to be able to adapt herself to the vagaries of a husband. I am opposed to girls marrying while they are very young for many reasons. One is their lack of exper- ience and judgment to pick out a life partner, and they are much more concerned over whether a man dances well and how he combs his hair than they are over his morals and his ability to make a living. An- other reason is that they don’t even know the kind of man they really want, for the youth who ravishes their fancy one day bores them stiff the next. At 18 and 20 a girl’s fancy for men changes as often as it does for chocolate creams. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE f .1; [’i, :3} \ “Wm-y) Cg - ) \ unwanted children, the queruions, discontented wives are, nine times out of ten, just the outward expres- sion of the woman who married too young. A girl should not marry too young because she is not old enough to know how to make allowances for the weaknesses of others. It takes age to teach us that. Also all girls are self-centred, and think the uni- veise revolves around them. That is no way in which to approach the matrimonial problem. For most men entertain a similar idea regarding llwmselves, and the dove of peace is no likely to perch on the roofâ€"pole of the house in which the wife con- siders herself IT. On the other hand. domestic feli- city depends on a woman’s adapt- ability, and you have to catch ’em young to teach ‘em that trick. After a woman once acquires ways and forms set opinions she is adamant. She can’t adapt herself to a bus- band’s peculiarities. He must either take her or leave her :is she is. She can’t change. Therefore, a girl should marry when she has cut her wisdom teeth, but before she is convinced that she is 9. Solomon in petticoats; when she is settled enough to have some back- bone of her own, yet plastic enough to mold; and when she is tired of playing and wants to be about the business of life.
