It doesn‘t take into account the number of colts that will for some reason or other, not survive those first trying days of colthood. Raising a colt, as we understand it, is a very different matter from raising a calf. The birth of a foal is a‘vyoa! atomk an farms On farms where no colts are raised the death of one horse usually means the purchase of another and younger one to take his place. Reasonably sound and typy horses are in good demand and good prices are realized on this class of stock. In theory at least it should be a good policy to raise a few colts to replace the worn out animals. _ In fact, if colts are regularly raised there ought to be a horse to sell every year or so, and none of the animals need be kept unâ€" til old age weakens and finally kills During the winter one of the older horses on the farm came to the end of the number of days that were alâ€" lotted to him. Two more of the farm horses are getting to be very near the same age, and a day‘s work tells on them to a far greater extent than it does on the younger animals. At best it will be only a few more years till they, too will have reached the end of their period of labor. Horses like men, get old. No one would expect an old man to be able to keep up his end of the day‘s work as easily as a young man. Nor can we expect an old horse to pull the plow up and down the field with quite the speed and keenness of a fiveâ€"yearâ€"old. Just as age creeps upon a man and weakens him long ere he is quite ready to admit that he is gotting old, so age comes to our horses while we still think there should be a few good years left in them. Raising Colts Is No Cinch (By Rusticus, in the Stratford Beaconâ€"Herald.) G. L. MacLachlan, chairman of Alberta‘s Social Credit Board is shown above at left as he arrived on the Cunarder Aurania, with G. F.

Sharpe, Regent of Peel Regiment Chapter I. O. D. E., paid a tribute to the loyal services rendered by the Boy Scouts in each day raising and lowering the flags for several years. The new flag is presented the town each year by the 1.O.D.E. for the Scouts of Parry Sound was reâ€" cently opened by His Worship Mayor Jackson and members of the town council, the building in Agricultura Park having been given the Scouts by the Council. At Sarnia Mrs, W. J. Hanna presented a frame building at Elgin Street for use as a Headquarâ€" ters for the Local Boy Scouts Associaâ€" tion, to be known as Coronation Hall. At Tillsonburg the Bell Telephone Company were the donors of a buildâ€" ing on the condition that the Scouts removed it to a site given by Miss Cora Anderson. The structure was frame, with a brick veneer. The thrifty Scouts negotiated a sale of the bricks, and at once began stripping them off. When you buy a horse you can alâ€" ways ask the previous owner what he calls it, for a horse must have a name. With the foal you raise one has the privilege of picking a name. Now a horse does not want a big family name. Something short and easy to say is far more appropriate. Some horses are inclined to be a bit lazy at times and the driver may feel inclined to give them a yell. At such times a short name like "Mike," "Bill" or "Tom" comes in very nice. If the teamster is inclined to do a of "cussing" should one of the plow steam step over the traces, he does not want to be bothered with a "sissified" name. So here we are right up against a brand new experiment, as far as this farm is concerned, and since we bought that brood mare we have reâ€" ceived as much advice about raising a farm horse of the youngest generaâ€" tion. Today though she is a playâ€" some colt, that shares the box stall with her mother or gallops round while the mare is out on grass a few hours each day, up to date the exâ€" periment is 100 per cent successful. Normally the foal should grow and in two or three years become a valuâ€" able work horse. That is according to theory, but theory doesn‘t take into consileration the diseases and accidenis that may be visited upon This spring it was necessary for us to buy another horse. Realizing that in a few more years other horses must be replaced, we decided to find out if raising our own work horses would work out in actual practice as attractively as it does in theory. An inâ€"foal mare was therefore purchasâ€" ed and a week or ten days ago, she presented us with what promises to be a fairly good colt. This youngster is the first foal to be born on this farm in the last 30 years. haps that is because farmers are more attached to their horses than to any other class of stock they keep. This was a question affecting soleâ€" ly the value received from the money expended. Nobody suggested that the bounty should be abolished for the skunk‘s benefit.â€" Charlottetown paying the provincial bounty on skunk snouts bootlegged in from the other provinces. It is with his bad habits, not his virtues, that we have unfortunately become familiar in this province. At the last session of the Legislature there was a somewhat heated debate as to whether the Minister of Agriâ€" culture was not being "gypped" in . . . And the skunk, whatever his virtues, is not just the kind of a pet one would like to have running around the garden. He is reputed, among other things, to be a great raider of chickenâ€"coops. How the difference in location would hove affected the fortunes of the port it is perhaps useless to argue, but there is not much doubt these fortunes would have been afâ€" fected. The city would have been farâ€" ther from the sea, farther from the beaches and resorts which have deâ€" veloped, closer to the North Arm and the mountains, closer to the Fraser and the Pitt, closer to New Westminâ€" ster. It would have been a city with problems different from those Vanâ€" couver had had to master. It would very likely have had different people at the start. In short, it would have been a different city. Vancouver would do well to remâ€" ember that first train, for it had not come, while there would still be a city on Burrard Inlet, it would not be Vanâ€" couver, and it would not be where Vancouver stands, but farther east, at the Inlet‘s head. That train, 50 years ago, did a numâ€" er of things which Vancouver should remember. It fofged another link in the chain of Confederation, binding the Pacific province to the provinces on the Atlantic. It tied the baby city on Burard Inlet into the Canadian commercial fabric; and gave it the start which enabled it to make a proâ€" gressively larger place for itself, It gave Vancouver a position, too, on the "All Red Line", the allâ€"British system of transportation which ties the Doâ€" minions and the Motherland toâ€" gether. Though Vancouver made no fuss about it at all, May 24 was one of the most important aniversaries in the history of the city. It was on May 24, 1887, at 2.45 p.m., that the first transcontinental train, its engine clothed in flags and slogans, and bearâ€" ing a portrait of Queen Victoria, steamed into the city. Half A Century Since Vancouver Had First Train One factor that must have a bearâ€" ing on this whole question seems to me the tremendous waste occasioned by the annual cutting of literally millions of young trees for the Christmasâ€"tree trade. One can hardâ€" ly blame our neighbors to the south for being well content to allow us to denude our land as we are doing and sell them hundreds of thousands of good trees at a few cents each. _ It seems almost absurd that the Govâ€" ernment should spend the money they do each year in replanting and perâ€" mit all their efforts to be more than offset by this one comparatively unâ€" important bit of trade. W. H. H. BOSWELL, Toronto. use in some of the older countries, which have been realized in time that their forests are not inexhaustible and have taken the necessary steps to conserve them. The fact that by so doing they have placed a great inâ€" dustry on a permanent footing is only one, and perhaps not the most in:â€" portant, point. The effect on the water supply and the preserving of the soil for agricultural purposes is something we surely cannot ignore. to guard against the inevitable reâ€" sults of this situation. There is ample evidence of the benefits which have been obtained by the methods in Letter in Toronto Globe and Mail : â€"I feel quite sure that your exce!â€" lent editorials on reforestation are doing much to awaken the people of this Province to the disastrous reâ€" sults of the present lack of proper control in regard to the cutting down and replanting of our wooded areas.

The general opinion seems to be that there is a good deal of luck attached to the business. Everyone expresses the opinion, that it pays to raise colts, "providing you have luck." In the next year or two we will try to find out if we have any "luck" in raising our own work horses.
