WHEN a call comes for a man at the far end of the office the line is tied up for useless minutes until he reaches the telephone. Anyone else trying to call is told: “Line's Busy", but in reality the line is idle. THE NEW IMPROVED / GYPROC "Line's Busy” is the chief cause of the million tele- phone calls a day in Ontario and Quebec which fail to get through. They mean two million minutes a day wasted â€" congestion of traffic â€" constant irrita- tion â€" a handicap to all business. We are making every effort to provide the best pos- sible telephone service.‘ But it takes three people to complete a call. Only through public co-operation can we reach maximum efficiency. We would be glad at any time to have our experts survey your telephone facilities and submit a re- port.. It will save time â€" yours and other people’s â€" and it will get business for you which you are now losing through “Line's Busy.” An office with only one telephone when it needs two or three, or an office in which telephones are poorly located, is a sure cause of unnecessary “Line’s Busy”, a sure time-waster, a sure business loser.

Plowing Is Fundamental Operation In Agriculture His paper, as reported in the twen- tyâ€"ninth annual report of the Ontario Department of Agriculture in connect- ion with agricultural societies was as follows: “It is a very old and truthful saying that good plowing is the foundation of the science of farming and after all is not farming or agriculture, the basic industry of this great land? Where would the people of our towns and cit- I ies be if it were not for the farmer? l “If we were to drive through the country and come to a field or farm that was well plowed you could easily depend upon the owner being a succ- essful farmer. He would be well ad- vanced with his work. H15 Imple- ments would not be scattered all over the place where they were last used. His fences and buildings would invariâ€" ably show that same nehtness and his livestock as a rule would show the re- sults of careful breeding and feeding. ‘Of course we have exception to all cases. I have knOWn of very success- fu1._farmers who were not the best of nlowmen, and I have known of good plowmen who were not the best OI farmers, but as a rule the man who is particular with his plowings is par- . ticular with his plowings is particular with the rest of his work. “In taking up the subject of plows and plowing We find that the plow is one of the oldest, ‘if not the oldest oI farm inmloments. Those of you who have studied ancient history will recall that the plow has been referred to at a very early date. Possibly at that time it was nothing more than the forked root of a tree, however it servâ€" ed the tu‘spose of loosening up the soil and the steady progress made from this ancient typ'e to its more imâ€" proved form of the present day would be a history in itself, “Substitutes mr-y I w phases of farm work Ewu no substitute for (be we It is the one necessz :‘y fertility and productF-ah one implement that ié help fight the weed in country, a situation th: a» the roots of these destructive Iorces, it turns them over and buries the lea- ves and stalks with all their carbon- aceous producers taken from the air and the sunshine and in this way forc- es the weeds to contribute to the fer- tility of the subsoil; besides, it expos- es the tender roots to the sun which, in most cases, proves fatal. It is true that plowing does not kill all the ‘weeds, but when properly done it is the most effective cure we have and without it the country would simply go to seed. In this way plowing be- comes the basic principle of all our national greatness and prosperity. more serious each year. it vote at “During the last few years there has been a great difference of opinion as to what constitutes a jointer plow, or a plain plow. My idea of the word plain when used in this sense is with- }out cut, and a plow Without cut is one with the coulter set at right angles to the cutting face of the share, or in other words when the furrow is turn- ed the shoulder will have an angle of ninety degrees. “Opinions differ greatly as to the best type of plow. Some sixty or seventy years ago the narrow, or high cut, plows were very popular. This was before the skimmer was introduc- ed and the object of the cut was to help tum in the grass and stubble. 0f later years, I am pleased to learn, the wide bottom plow is being more used and except on really heavy clay land will give better results. With a Wide plow you can plow more in a day. It is easier held and of lighter draft. lYou can get more depth and put more body into your furrow, besides, there are fewer joints for weeds and grass ‘to come up. The skimmer should a]- ways be used on either Wide or narrow plows if there is any grass or stubble. “Now While a. jointer plow is usu- ally understood to have a wide share, and a breast of corresponding width, it is still a plain plow with skimmer attached, and I think it is a great misâ€" take for societies to encourage the use of plain plows without Skimmers. Why not call them wide jointer and narrow jointer, and specify the width of share in each ? Skimmer Important “I think the skimmer is the most important accessory on a plow, and I would like to see the different man- ufacturers make it standard equip- NO SUBSTITUTE FOR GOOD PLOWING. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, QNTARIO )ductfoh. It is the that ié necessary to weed menace of the tion that is becoming ad f the? of the plow ment on all new plows. There are sections in this province that new never seen a skimmer and there are farmers in our own county who do not use them, and their farms generally look like it. I believe that a great ‘many of our weeds have resulted from the lack of properly working skimm- ,ers. “Now there is a great difference in Skimmers. Some .cut too deep and narrow and are littie better than none at all for the furrow cannot turn pro- perly. “There is no advantage to skim deep, it has a tendency to leave loose wavy plowing, besides, the furrows appear to lack body. The sklmmes should have more width than depth and be set to out clean so that the skim will be deposited in the bottom of the furrow, or so that it will fall in the bottom as the furrow turns. “A very common mistake we find among plowmen is that they do not draw their plows straight. There is a line draft to every plow, usually the centre of the beam or about one hole to the right on the bridle, and unless the plow is drawn at that point it will not give the best results. Never draw a plow to the left of the beam, draw a plow to the left of the beam, it will not run straight and Wlll have a tendency to leave loose, open plown ing. The coulter can be edged either on '1‘ off the land so as to make the plC'v draw in the proper place. “It is also bad policy to draw your plow too high on the head. Usually the bottom, or second from bottom hole will give the best results unless the ground is very hard and in this case setting the coulter a little higher and farther back, or lengthening your draw, will be better than raising the bridle. You should never nave to carry your plow handles. You should have depth enough on your plow so that you are always able to put a littâ€" le bearing on them and if you hold your plow level you will save your furrow better, and your plowing will be firmer.” Mr. Young is credited by experts with being one of the best authorities on pIOWS in Ontario at the present time. He is a past-champion plow- man and one of the experts who are sent through the country to hold de- monstrations from time to time under arrangements made by the Depart- ment of Agriculture.

Export Apple Market Prospects for a heavier apple crop in Ontario this season add emphasis to the export market as a profitable cutlet for surplus fruit. United States apples are not likely to glut the British market this year and al- though the Nova Scotia crop is heavy, Ontario apples invariably command a premium over the Maritime product in Britain, due chiefly to the fact that Ontario apples are inspected by the} Government before exportation. The permanent appointment of an over- seas sales representative at London will greatly benefit Ontario shippers. Full information may be secured Iron. P. W.
