We kept them under the water just as long as we dared without drowning them. This was supposed to scare the hen so badly that she forgot about wantâ€" ing to set. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn‘t. When it didn‘t, something else had to be tried. The broody trait in hens is not a "notion" but a natural condition in response to natural laws. The longer tfi hens are tolerated in this condition, the longer it will be before they return to laying and the less the profit realâ€" ized from the investment. It is foolish to think that mistreatâ€" ment and abuse which breaks up the tendency is a wiso one.

On a great many farms, roots are sown on timothy sod land and precede grain. Too often in the cultivation of such land, the reqr're- ments of the crop are lost sight of, with the result that the roots are sown on springâ€"plowed sod where it is next to impossible to secure a proper seed bed. P ! T ta 2 Commercial fertilizers may be used profitably if manure is scarce. Basic slag is a useful fertilizer for turnips and should be applied in the fall or the hens liberally on a good egg raâ€" tion which would within a few days have induced the hens to lay. Once laying is resumed the broody trait will disappear. The open yard mothod of breaking up broody hens is one of the most humane treatments we can give the fowls and is also most productive of results. The method is simple. A small area is fenced off in a grassy and shady corner in which a box is placed for protection in bad weather. The hens are turned loose in this yard and plenty of fresh water and feed is given, and as a rule the broodiness ceases in a short time. Slatted and wire mesh coops indoors or out work fairly well when the bird is caught in time, but in warm weathâ€" er do not give satisfaction. According to my judgment, the best method for curing broodiness is the open yard. There is less expense, work and trouâ€" ble involved in this plan than in any other tried. It breaks up the birds more quickly and thus gets them back into the laying class with a minimum loss of time. Those who quit feeding the poultry flock mash now are inviting the hens to molt early. A good mash will keep them laying. Now that touringâ€"time is here once more it might be well to state that many farm women are still taking annual jaunts of 20 ntiles and more each year just to bring the necessary water from the well,.located by the barn, to the house to perform her regular duties. Seasonable Hints, issued by the Doâ€" minion Experimental Farms, contain« many timely suggestions, among which are the following: C “('};odâ€";l;lrkm ean seldom be gained, and most certainly can never be held, unless our products show top q\}:lity. â€""é:;u;!â€"ai's'fievri capita consumption of home products is not nearly as large as it might be were farmers to proâ€" duce, pack, and attractively display such things as the Canadian consumer most désires. c o For the feedings of steers or beef cattle barley has a high commercial value. The suitability of barley for bacon production has been repeatedly demonâ€" strated; but it is not a desirable feed for brood sows before farrowing or during the early part of the nursing period; nor should it be fed to newly weaned pigs in any appreciable quanâ€" tity. In choosing a dairy herd, pure breeding, size, conformation, quality, and record backing should be given first consideration. ~ In sizing up the milk record on a pedigree, it should be remembered that the important records are those close up. If imâ€" provement in the herd is to be accomâ€" plished, the herd sire must be of betâ€" ter quality than any of the other aniâ€" mals in the herd. Experiments at Nappan, N.S., show that the average heifer with a producâ€" tion of over 5,000 pounds of milk as a twoâ€"yearâ€"old is 100 per cent. superâ€" ior to the average heifer below 5,000 pounds at the same age. Outbreaks of Foot and Mouth Disâ€" ease have never occurred in Canada. This disease is probably the most inâ€" fectious malady of animals of which we have knowledge and causes treâ€" mendous losses to the agricultural interests of any country it invades. It spreads very rapidly and extensively, and entails the entire loss of export trade in live animals and the interâ€" ruption of domestic commerce. Unlike most other infectious diseases Foot and Mouth Disease may attack the same animals repeatedly, and they are, therefore, a dangerous source of infection. There is no permanent cure for Foot and Mouth Disease, the majority of affected animals recover from an attack in ten to fourteen days without treatment. The greatest difficulty is the eradication of the infection and this can only be accomplished by the slaughter of all affected and exposed animals, the proper destruction of their carcasses and the thorough disâ€" infection of all contact matter. If not controlléd by these radical measures the disease spreads very rapidly throughout the whole country, affectâ€" ing practically all suscoptible animals with enormous economic losses, The disease commences with a high fever, followed by inflammation of the membranes of the tongue and those lining the mouth, also of the sensitive structures in the hoof. This is quickly followed by the formation of blisters on these membranes, varyâ€" ing in size from that of a pea to that of a hazel nut. These blisters also appear on the udders and along the top of the hoof, also in the cleft diâ€" viding the hoof. They may be presâ€" ent in all these membranes in the same animal, or may appear only in the mouth, or may be limited to the hoofs. The symptoms are very characterâ€" istic. The irritation of the membranes in the mouth results in loss of appeâ€" tite, and dribbling of saliva from the mouth, which, owing to constamt movement of the lips and tongue, beâ€" comes frothy and adheres to the corâ€" ners of the mouth and muzale. The animal!s often make a peculiar smackâ€" ing sound with their mouths. The fever and the difficuity in eatâ€" ing causes aâ€"rapid and extreme loss in flesb, and a serious lessening or cessaâ€" tion of the milk secretion. Extreme lameness occurs when the lesions appear on the cleft and on the topâ€"of "the hoof. "~â€"/â€" * .. . The udders often become inflamed and ruined by abscess formation, and a large number of cattle so affected are rendered permanently valueless fot milk production. The inflammation of the feet freâ€" quently results in the shedding of the hoofs, causing permanent injury.

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE stormy weather of autumn, and when pastures aré bare or dry, is an imâ€" portant factor in successful live stock husbandry. The vegetable garden seed plots at this season of the year require parâ€" ticular attention especially concerning cultivation, rogueing, and protection against insects and diseases. The storage life of an apple deâ€" pends largely on the treatment it reâ€" ceives during the six or eight weeks following the time it is picked. Airâ€" cooled or common storage houses offer a relatively cheap, and when properly Careless or improper methods of curing alfalfa and clover for hay may result in a loss of as much as fifty per cent. of the entire crop. The bleaching of hay by the sun and the discoloration by dew and rain lower the market price.

The Spirit which "leads" Jesus is the Spirit which descended upon him at hlsgxngtism. The hugtism- ‘ nnxgerience has filled his mind with absorbing thoughts which require for their working out, a season of prni\:er and solitude. It is to the desert that Eastern prorheu and saints retire| when they wish to be alone with God, and therefore Jesus is led there by the Jesus thought that when the Messiah ‘came he, too, would provide miracuâ€" lous bread for the multitude. And this bread they conceived literally, not spiritually. As Jesus was famished after his long vigil, this conception of the Messiah pressed itself upon his mind. The temptation came: "If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread." But from this temptation Jesus turned as from a suggestion of the evil one. It meant putting a wrong construction and meaning upon the love of God, and Jesus woultf have none of it. He ansâ€" wers, using the words of Deut. 8:3: "Man shafi not live on bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." That is to say, man‘s primary need is spiritual, and therefore,. however popular the idea of a breadâ€"giving Messiah may be, Jesus will minister only to the spirit. He will not put the material in the glace of the spiritual, for that would e yielding to Satan. Vs. 5â€"7. Another form in which the age pictured the Messiah was as givâ€" ing extraordinary "signs" of a superâ€" natural character. The 91st Psalim spoke of the man who dwells in the love of the most High, as being superâ€" naturally protected, and in it occurred the words: "He shall give his angels a charge concerning thee: And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone." Men thought of these words perhaps as referring to the Messiah. Consequently in Jesus‘ ltemgtation. which should be thought of throughout as inward or mentalâ€" ‘this conception also rises before his mind, and the question cccurs: Supâ€" pose he, taking the word of the Psaim literally, should cast himseilf from the temple pinnacie, would God‘s love proâ€" tect him from death? This would be ‘a great "sign" to the people, and they would enthusiastically acclaim him as God‘s anointed one.

It is hard to master physical temptations beâ€" cause they mare based on natural deâ€" sires. Eating and drinking are necâ€" essary to life. They minister to the enjoyment as well as to the continuaâ€" tion of life. Yet gluttony, and all its kindred indiscretions in the matter of food habits, is the root cause of most sickness. Just as the children pay the penalty of "too much Christâ€" mas," so the human family continues to suffer for its appetite. If we would only "eat to live," rather ghan_‘ “Llh.'e Temptations of the Spirit. By subâ€" tle appeal to spiritual pride, the tempâ€" ter would have our Lord presume upon the protecting power of God. Some one has wriiten regarding this, "in pestilence the best prayer is the right use of sanitation; when a capâ€" tain disregards his charts and drives his ship on the rocks he has no right |\to expect the Almighty to save it; !‘ma man cannot be a glutton and then blame his Maker for dy?epsin.." Tempting God is a very different thinf from trusting him. Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid. Pray rather, "Lead us not into temptation." F'iat,"'â€"&é should be less sluggish in earning the great truth that "man shall not Jive by broad alone." But we are of the earth "How many friends have we, the news of whose! death would so affect us, that we should miss a single meal?" But so simple a test as this may we balance the dei)th of our sentiment against the pull of our appetite.

It is rightly so, for we humans are not built for one continuous grind, and for physical and mental welfare a change is often advisable. The farmer is fortunate in having a variety of work and periods in which his enceavors are not strenuous. But there are times, especially in spring, when there comes a multiâ€" plicity of duties which sometimes seem beyond one‘s ability to attend. Such things are wearing, and that lonfing to get away, if for only a day, is likely to predominate. As the season grows into summer the work becomes a little less strenuâ€" out, but the old feeling still prevails. Then thought should be given to this inner desire and arrangements made to fulfill it. A few hours, a half day, a day or a few days should be given to going somewhere. It might pay to neglect a few things and pack the family in the old bus, or in the buggy behind old Dobbin, to go for a change of scenery. You will unâ€" doubtedly enjoy yourself, but even if you do not, the change will do you good. And when you get back you will observe with happy wonderment how the corn and other crops have grown. You will be pleased at the bounding glee with which the dog greets you. The cackling of the chickâ€" ens and the neighing of the horses will be music in your ears. Home will look good again, and work will be reâ€" sumed with renewed determination for another period. Whenever work permits, hit the trail, for it does one good to see new things and to experience new experiâ€" ences. Variety is the spice of life and a little spice now and then makes regular living taste the better. What would we do without our nerves? And what are we to do with them? How tired they make us at times. And yet at other times we are thrilled with the power of their electric force. It is easy to lay blame on norves. Nothing in nature quite equals the marvelousness of the nervous system. Like a delicately woven plece of laceâ€" work is this nerve onganization of ours. You can‘t injure or disturb a single inch of the body without getting into trouble with this perfectly put together nervous system. Controlled as it is from the seat of the mind, it will not stand abuse. If you would have calm nerves get a calm mind. Dr. Thomas Hyslop, of England, says that the best possible sleepâ€"proâ€" ducing agent which his practice has revealod is prayer. He says that it will do more than anything else to pacify the mind and calm the nerves. It is not so much praying to God, but to our better natures, our highest senses of right, and seeking adjustâ€" ment and solace through the unloading of our fears upon a higher power than William James says that "One part of our mind dams upâ€"even damns up! â€"the other parts."
