Another claims to have lost $500 by not following instructions completely. Spraying must be done properly and thoroughly to yield the best results. It Pays to Spray Ontario farmers will this year harâ€" vest the cleanest apple crop in the history of the provicne. It is almost solely due to better spraying, which in turn is the result of the activities of the department’s spray service. One farmer reports that his crop ben- efited to the extent of $1000 by reason Oats and Sow Thistle “Don’t sow oats on fields infested with sow thistle. Rather sow clov- ers, plow them when very dry, and work thoroughly,” is the advice of one farmer who has had experience with this noxious weed. Sow thistle as well as other thistles, thrive in cats better than in any other crop. It does not show up very much in wheat or cloirer. Sow weed infested fields to any of the clovers and cut twice a year. By following this course, sow thistle will be largely eliminated. Fattening Turkeys Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner tables in Ontario Will not lack for turkeys, judging by reports from diff- erent parts of the province. Turâ€" keys raised in the open during the summer cannot stand close confine- ment during the fattening period and should therefore not be confined to pens. Confinement often results in the birds going off their feed and de- veloping digestive troubles, sometim- es in death. The proper time to commence fattening is four Weeks be- fore they are wanted for table use,‘ which is usually in November and De- cember. The young birds should be started feeding gradually. The feed should be composed of both mashes and whole grain, the mashes in the morning and at mid-day, and the whole grain at night. The mash is made up of equal parts of ground oats, barley meal, cornmeal and Wheat bran, and should be fed in a. moist condition from clean, “V”-shaped troughs. Whole corn is the best grain for fattening purposes and should be used for the evening meal. NeVer give them more than they will readily eat. Turkeys thrive best in the open and even in the fattening period should be allowed to roost outside, with protection, of course, from cold winds and rain. a. new million dollar administration and residence building on which work has already commenced.

Less rye was grown but the yield remain- ed stationary. The acreage of peas dropped about 30 per cent. and the yield per acre decreased. About 25 per cent. more beans were grown and the yield increased. Alfalfa was of? considerably from the heavy crops of I 1927 and 1928, but still far above the average for the past 16 years. The yield was not so good. Alsike had a good year and a fair yield per acre. Sweet clover fell off both in acreage and yield. But hay and clover had the biggest acreage yet and a fine ‘yield. The figures for other crops ‘will be furnished at a later date.

Richmond Hill Acreage of Crops Some interesting statistics have been compiled by the department deal- iing with the acreage of principal field crops of Ontario and the yield per acre in bushels for 1929 as c0mpared with 1928. The acreage of fall wheat is shown to be about the same with an increase in the acre yield. Spring wheat, both in acreage and yield, was slightly off. Oats showed a similar tendency. More barley was planted is one of the lightest in ten years, in fact is the smallest with the exception of 1925. It will be readily appreciat- ed that potatoes are in a strong pOSi- tion.

DO you ever stop to consider what your merchant means to your community? What it means to him from the standpoint of investment, to stock his store with seasonable merchandise of every description for the convenience of community residents? He will choose, we will say, a five thousand dollar stock of goods and place them on his shelves for your convenien- ce of purchase, he has studied your needs, he knows your desires. Why not show your confidence in him through your purchases? That same investment could easily be placed at 6% outside of your community and tripled in one year. If you do not help, through your purchase of his merchandise, his stock becomes old and shopworn, and finally he gives up doing business in dis- gust. When this is done your merchant leaves the community. Yes he has lost out, not so much from a monetary standpoint, but his confidence has been shat- tered. When confidence is gone you remove the foun- dation of your whole civic structure. Yes, the merch- ant lost, but not as much as the community who lost him. When a community can point with pride to the stability of its business interests you are doubly safe in assuming a vital factor in it. Think it over and CON- SIDER that the residents through their support have been YOUR MERCHANT. Little Brothers Ford Sales and Service GAS J.
