As long as the soil is wet in the spring we want all these at work, but as soon as the soil is dry enough for cultivation We want the losses cut oil'. And Cultiv- ation is the only direct means by .which this can he done in summer. cultivation should begin just as early ‘3 the soil is dry enough. To delay one week may cause the loss of as much as 1% inches of Water, and this is as much as tells in the month of April, 3 very serious matter when "the needs are so great and the supply so limited.

During the growing season only 10 or 12 Inches of raln falls ln Ontario, and this Ls only half the amount required by the crops. Hence It becomes necessary to store up In the soil as much or the winter and spring rum as possible, whlle at the same time guarding against excess. The amount of water a soil may contain depends on the pore space in the I0“. Sands have least pore space. loams and mucks most, and clay is intermediate. The porosity of e coarse sand is about 35 per cem.. of a loam or muck about 50 per cent, and or aheavy clay about 45 per cent. From these figures it will be Ieen that a soil may contain near- ly as much water as soil grains. Since the plant roots requfre air it is not desirable to have all the soil pores filled with water; some free ur space must be left, hence drain- age becomes necessary.‘ less. 1 Alsiko 2 Alsike 3 Alsike 1 Red Clover 2 Red Clover [Sweet Clover 1 $6.00 per bushel 2 Sweet Clover ( $5.40 per bushel 2 Timothy (NO. $5.25 per bushel. 1 Alaike “[016 Oomme the Soil Moisture. 9 (free of nnxious weeds) 8lU.00 pcr bushel $9.00 per buuhfl 8 8.00 “ 7.00 “ war .. 15.00 " )vet .. 14.00 “ )vor .. 12.60 “ 15.00 " 14.00 " 12.60 ” Oloverr (White Blossom) (White Bloslom) 1 for puritn Sold at Sloan’s Drug Stores 309‘} HINTS 0N BDUUNG MM Three Essentials in Cooling Ex- plailed.

AC’I‘ERIA in larger or smaller numbers are always present in freshly drawn mllk. At temperatures between 60 deg. F. and 98 deg. F. (blood heat) they grow and multiply rapidly, causing the milk to become quickly spoiled. As the temperature falls below 60 deg. 9., the bacterla become less active, the changes caused by them are less marked, so the milk keeps sweet and in good coudltlon for a longer time.

Arnold & Yonge. i PHONE 27 I xuun tuvnnu. .., In practice a dairyman should bear in mind three things in connection with the cooling of milk. Firstâ€"â€" cool milk with as little delay as pos- sible after it comes from the cow. Secondâ€"cool milk to as low a tem- perature as possible, say somewhere between 40 deg. F. and 50‘ deg. F. Thirdâ€"cool milk with as little con- tamination as possible from outside sources, such as dust. dirty utensils. water splashings. etc. 11' these three points were regularly attended to by all dairies a marked improvement in the general quality of our milk sun- plies would be noticeable right away. The quickest way to cool milk is to run it over some form of tubular or surtace cooler, pail by pail, imâ€" mediately it is drawn from the cow. In this way milk may be rapidly cooled to within two or three degreel of the temperature of the water used. The objections to this method are the extra work involved in washing tfl'e cooler twice a day. the difficulty of keeping it properly clean, and the danger of contaminating the milk wlth dust, barn odours, etc., unless the cooler is used in a clean and separate milk room. The other alternative is to place the cans of milk in a tank of running cold water at the earliest opportunity, or in an insulated tank of water into which some chopped-up ice is thrown. It the milk is stirred once every ten minutes during the first hour, cool- ing will take place more rapidly than where milk is left unstlrred. If cold run lng water is not available all an er, enough lce should be out up during the winter to ensure the mllk being brought to a sumciently low temperature during the warmer portions or the year. h. ,_.J W'c have just received a car of N0, 1 Dry Birch cordwood.
