Cheaper Poultry Foc d On account of the scarcity and hiin pr-iccm‘fred thr- poultry industry of this country is threatened by the pro- spect ofthe wholesale slaughter of lay- ing stock and a serious falling off in the number of pullcts to be matured. The necessity for retaining for mill- rug every possible bushel of wheat suitable for that purpose need not be emphasized. To provide poultrymen with feed for rearing their young stock without unnecessarily lowering the supplies of milling wheat, the fed- eral Department of Agriculture has requested millers throughout Canada to put. on the market, the cracked and shrunken Wheat removed from grain before it. is milled. In addition to small and broken wheat these cleanings consist chiefly of the seeds of wild buckwheat,a near relative of the cultivated buckwheat. The Poultry Division of the Central Experimental Farm has used wild buckwheat in feeding experiments and reports it to be a highly satisfactory poultry feed and has ordered two cars of buckwheat screenings for the Cent- ral and Branch Experimental Farms from the Canadian Government Ele- vators at Fort. \Villiam. Fowls used to good grain do not take to it at first but. when they become accustomed to it they eat it readily and do well on it. ‘ The mill cleanings from local flour millsalso contain traces of many other weed seeds, including several kinds of mustards. These, however, \voulrlnot as a rule amount to more than two or three per. cent of the. cleanings in the case of the Standard grades of \Vestei'u wheat. This material is specially rec. oiniiiended for backyard, suburban and professional poultrynien. 0n farms the cleanings from yards and Poultry houses where it had been fed would have to be disposed of so as not to disseminate noxious weeds in grain fields. Those interested in obtainingr this class. of feed should immediately arrange with local mills or feed dealers for a supply. The mills cannot be ex- pected to keep this materialfor poultry unless it is demanded for that purpose and that rests with the poultrynren trieinselves. â€"â€"‘.° Prizes for Roses At the Annual Rose Show, held iii Toronto on July 10th, under the au- spices of The Rose‘ Societv of Ontario, Mr. G.

Jenkins in 1817, ocrupics the distinguished and honour- able position of being the Mother Church of Presbyterianisnr in \Vester-n Ontario, and of being for many ycars the Premier Church of the province. Rev. \Viu. Jenkins who founded the Church was _ the first Presbyterian Minister in the western section of what was then knoer as Canada.
