It is a form of Christianity that the world has been too long without. Not long ago, a city man said in our hearing, "You farmers think that if you can establish co-operative market- ing you can make the city people pay what you like for their food" This is absurd and impossible. Anyone with money or credit can buy or rent land, and if we did set a very remunerative price on our own products, a standing army of millions of men could not pre- vent people from rushing into farm.. ing. The world can only eat a certain amount of food and the rest would be wasted. Cooperative marketing is a square deal to consumer as well as" Droducor. I And if the Women's Institutes will turn their attention to cooperative marketing, it will materially hasten the day when we will be marketing in no other way. It is one of the planks of the United Farm Women of On- tario. 5 We believe that a great number of persons do not yet know or understand the great necessity there is for raising the standard of our products and those that do know, who are doing their best to raise the standard of their pro- ducts, are not receiving what they should receive, as has been already pointed out. The manager of a co-, operative marketing association is paid to grade and grade properly, and I everybody receives what their pro- duct entitles them to. I ,Sometimeagoi readofahrge number of farmom living near a large city in the United States, that formed a cooperative meat association her cause they were frequently obliged to' sell their animals below cost of pro- duction. They had a thu, abattoir, that was under Government inspection and everything promised to go well with them, until the city butchers,: wholesale and retails, met and decided, to boycott them. The Federated We men's Clubs hear of it, called a meet-i ing and decided to notify the butchers that they considered the low prices the farmers were receiving for their products were largely responsible for; the financial depression which was being felt by " classes, and if they' continued to refuse to buy from that, cooperative meat market, they would' opt-n butcher shops of their own. 80 successful were these women in this matter that they next sent their rep- resentatives to their grocers and ex- plained that in the future they would buy graded eggs and poultry only from a eo-operative poultry assoeiation. We, look forward to no distant day when) Canada will have her Federated " men's Clubs also. Few of us realize the great power we hold in our hands and with it a responsibility which we, must face whether we are city or: country women. I mm. W. m. bison, 'ug-M.

The drying of the crop after the rating had been completed was done in a room kept at a temperature of approximately 44 degrees P. This induced sufficiently slow drying to prevent injury to the fibre. After drying was completed strength tests were made and the straw was broken and scutched in the usual manner. The fibre obtained by this, method of i retting turned out very green in colorj and although of good strength was of a harsher nature than is favored by) spinners. l When all is ready, the tree with its ball of frozen earth should be care- fully pried onto a stone boat and haul- ed up in an upright position to the hole, into which the tree can be skid- ded. Manure may be mixed with the dirt used to fill in the hole, but be careful not to let it come in direct contact with the roots. Following the moving, tho tree should be pruned to make the roots and top balance. l . So in the case of early chick: and ihtyimr and breeding floeks, remove lthe windows or hinge them so that they can be opened up during the Iday, thus admitting a flood of direct ‘sun rays. a circular. straight-walled trench with a radius of three feet should be dug about it so as to make the ball of earth include the majority of the small fibrous roots. After the french is dug, let the exposed ball freeze solid while you dig the hole for the new location. This should have a depth equal to the height of the ball and should be slightly larger hr, diameter. l Moving Trees. Moving big trees is a winter job. Do it when the ground is frozen. After deciding where the tree is to be set, this patch of ground (about ten feet in diameter) should be covered with twelve inches of fresh stable manure. which will thaw out the surface of the ground and make the digging easy. Trees up to eight inches in diameter can be moved without special equip- ment. If the tree is about this size Retting Flax S'traw for Fibre. Direct sunlight is essential to tho health of the birds. Studies show that sunlight coming in a poultry house through glass is robbed of much of its life-giving and invigorating powers. This special breeding flock should not be forced for heavy egg produc- tion, but should be allowed to range out-of-doors throughout the winter to keep the birds in good breeding condi- tion. Shovel away the snow if neces- sary to let them exercise. If only the best birds could be pick- ed out and put in a special breeding pen by themlm each winter, the quality of the pulkts in succeeding generation: would show material im- provement Then to these few super- ior birds there should be mated the best male birds obtainable. Probably the best suggestion to the average farm poultry raiser is to make a special mating each year. from which hatching eggs for the propaga- tion of his future [Julieta will be pro- duced. Such a pen need not be com- posed of more than fifteen or twenty of his superior females. Breeders should he fed . con-id» able quantity of hard grain and a minimum quantity of animal protein, probably 10 per cent. of the latter in the dry mush. They should be fed their grain ration in deep litter and compiled to exercise abundantly. They should be provided with green food continually throughout the winter and the breoding season. Be sure that the Invaders are free from body lice, and in clean, unitary quarters. Eggs from the breeding floek should run high in fertility. with germ that are strong md produce chicks that live well. Probably the most import- ant factor is the inherent vigor and vitality of the parents themselves.

One of the disciples, Thom- as, who was always tempted to take a sombre view of things, here inter. poses that they do not know where Jesus is going, and how then can they know the "way" there? Death, he seems to say, is a great mystery. The eye cannot pierce the gloom. We do not perceive the world beyond. nor anything that belongs to it. Why, therefore, speak of the way being plain? Jesus answers simply that the way is himself. Thomas surely knows what it is to be led by Jesus. Well. then, to be led by Jesus, to trust him, is to have Jesus as the way; it is the true way, and it is a living way. Can- not Thomas to. on_ttu_sting._ holding to V. 3.

It is the aim each r winter to go over the entire acreage, , disposing of all-trees which are down, , all trees which are dead, and a few trees that have reached their prime and are becoming less valuable. i The method of disposal of these trees is important. All small down trees, and all top limbs are drawn im- mediately to the buzzpile. About thirty cords of such fittwood are obtained each winter. All small white oak i trees which we find dead are cut into 'tgnce pom White oak anchor posts .are also eat from the woods. Small, _ black ash trees that are straight are taken to one of tho nearby sawmills. l They are taken to the sawmill lf they are large enough to cut five gate. boards, fourteen or sixteen feet long.'

There are also beach, ash, oak, elm and the like, 2x4's cut. This material is used for building frame work, patching, stick pens, forms for cement work, and the like. For fine work the lum- ber is taken to town and dressed. While furnishing fimnvood for the year, the wood-lot also cuts lumber costs for the farm considerably. A few short cuts of hickory are made up, into " handles, when the supply runs; out. In the spring about 160 maple, trees are tapped. l I am able to accomplish the following work, in addition to keeping the chores well done: My most profitable winter job is found in proper handling of the farm 'food-lot With the aid of one helper Beware of rag; or cbths used in u"."'. n” ““IMM D. ”mm on They will not list long.
