Intestinal parasitism of fowls is / brought to attention at this season of P the year because the most striking 1 phase of the disease is often seen at f this time. lt This disease is vastly more prevâ€"|© alent than tuberculosis, with which in its chronic form it may be confused | clinically, and from an economiei standpoint it probably ranks second only to roup. \ In order properly to understand the | discase the following brief description | of the chronic form is given since it may preceds or follow the acute form.| The sick animals become thin, alâ€"| though the appetite is not especially disturbed. At timies the appetite is | even increased and is accompanied hyi an intense thirst for cold water. The: droppings are thin, contain consider-l‘ able yellow slime, and are passed in emall quantitics, but at short interâ€" vals. After a time other symptoms develop. The sick animals become dull and listless, remain apart from the rest of the flock â€"the feathers are rufâ€" fled and the wing@s droop, the appetite is lost and the birds allow themselves to be easi‘y caugzht.

The usual history is‘ to the effect that birds are found in a prostrated condition, comb and watâ€" tes suddenly become dark in color, fo‘l:wed by death in one to three days, and this oceurs just after a sudden drop in temperature usually preceded by rain. By this it wou‘d seom that the birds are able to hold their own against the parasites under but are unable on the fight when Influences.

The affected pigs should be kept on a light diet for a few days and kept hungry so as to encourage them to roam about more and get pienty of exercise. ‘ The importance of the careful seâ€" lection of a brood sow cannot he overâ€" emphasized, so says Professor Wade Toole of the O.A.C. It is true that the sow‘s influence is reflccted on her own litters only, whereas that of the boar is reflected on all litters which he sires, and while many characterâ€"} istics are common to both sexes of breeding stock, there are others \which are very essential to the resâ€" \ pective sexes and opposite in nature. Information as to the history of the ancestry of a young sow is of conâ€" siderable value. Experience and obâ€" servation go to prove that certain outstanding qualities are common to \strains or families of hogs of differâ€" ‘ent breeds rather than simply breeds | | themselves. There are good and bad| ‘in all our breeds, consequently the, , prospective purchaser should ascerâ€"| \tain as much information as he can‘ \concerning the type, the quality and| ; the prolificacy of her ancestry, whethâ€"| , | &r or not they have been thrifty and " economic feeders and whether or not , | the sows have been good mothers., t Canadian hog raisers can well take g *" object lesson from the â€"results * which the Danish breeders are exDeéxâ€" t iencing where all the above informaâ€" tion is available to the prospective e s purchaser. Moreover, every breeding k hog must measure up to a certain x standard before that hog is eligible * for sale. THE SELECTION SoOW tem Storage of Vegetables for | Home Use in Winter. _ | It is to the interest of every family to grow each season a supply of those vegetables suitable for storage, and to see that they are properly stored for use during the winter months when: prices are high and vegetables often hard to get. Less work and less exâ€" pense are involved in keeping them by other methods, as canning, drying, ‘and preserving, and the product reâ€" tains its characteristic flavor. | _ Potatoes, beets, carrots, parsnips, , winter radishes, turnips, rutabagas, \ salsify. kohlâ€"rabi, may be stored as Potatoes, beets, winter radishes, salsify, kohlâ€"rabi, follows : Small Quantiti out. A very important factor, says the . ~ Dominion Field Husbandman in his annual report, in increasing the yield £ of crops is early seeding. With no adâ€"| ditional labor or seed, the yield on land planted early in the spring ia' very much larger than on land seedad later. It is obvious, he adds, that this increased yield is reflected in larger returns and greater profits. A table in the report recording six sowings| shows 53.3 bushels of oats, 38.4 bushâ€"| els of barley, 17.9 bushels of spring', wheat and 30.4 bushels of peas pet acre, for the first sowing and 59.5) bushe!s of oats, 44.2 bushels of barley,| 20.5 bushels of spring wheat, and 33.9 | | bushels of peas for the second sowing,| . seven days later. The reduction for| | each cowing made later is gradual but| || very decisive. Commenting upon this / fact Mr. E. S. Hopkins, the Fie‘ld Husâ€" r‘hmdman. points out that while thel ;\ second date of seeding at Ottawa gave‘ . the highest yield in every instance, it‘ \ must be remembered "that this land , was drained and, perhaps, with many # | farmers, especially in fields containing a| wet potâ€"holes or water courses, their y\ first seeding would more nearly corâ€" «\ respond 2s to date with the second 1 _ . ue Ne P | seeding at the Contral Experimental |\Farm.

Dairy experts the world over tell us that the most common and costly misâ€" take of dairymen is the underâ€"feeding of good cows. Feeding for profit is liberal feeding or feeding to the full capacity of the cow. s 4300 OE ST Cbuc: en Reenened m 200 CERiDp io tiot l Of course, there is a limit to the| { i capacity of the cow. To know just| | when that capacity is reached one| . must have a thorough knowledge of| the individual cow as well as cows in general, and of feeds. For example, a highly specialized dairy cow, when fed all that she will take, converts everything over and A above the maintenance ration into | Is milk. â€" Unfortunately, all cows are not| A lgood dairy cows. Some make all the| A | productive ration into milk for a few| ‘months after coming fresh and t,honl A start putting on weight. Others do| P this within a few weeks after cominzi T | fresh. â€" Generally speaking, one cannotl C i aford to give a dairy cow all she will |\eat if she is gaining weight. There ‘ are times, however, when it is best to make exception to this rule. For inâ€" stance, some cows in the early part of the lactation period lose in weightâ€" that is, they produce milk at the ex pense of their fiesh. Toward the ond of the milking period they regain the vweight they have lost. Such cows can be fed liberally for they will turn that extra feed into milk again the next time they are fresh. <+4#Dairy‘* HWere are a feow clementary ru‘les to guide the less experienced: 1. Feed all the roughass a cow will ent un clean. adjusting the grain raâ€" tion to the milk production. Only when a cow tends to become overâ€"fat shauld the quantity of rourhage be restricted. 2, Feed ore pound of grain mixture for every three pounds (or pints) of milk produced a day by the cow. Or, another rule isâ€"one round of grain a day for every pound of butterâ€"fat produced a week. If the cow is a big producer cut that proportion of grain down slichtlv. 3.
