But consider this: If the business itself was conducted on a basis of 1910 merchandising policies would the custom- ers of 1930 patronize that business? 1i Business stationery and printed forms are an integral part of every going concern. When a customer or business associate reads a message or invoice from an indifferently printed or constructed piece of stationery the impression is not good. {I Next time you require printing think over it a while. It’s worth a lot of thought. If suggestive advice or co-operâ€" ation from your printer will help, call 9. We’ll be glad to assist. And we produce Good Printing. GENERALLY speaking, a business man is averse to having his stationery changed from the accepted form. For ten, tWenty, or more years it has conformed to a rigid standard, and usually, he feels it should be kept so. . J.

All prospects are excellent for a fine yield of grain in Frontenac, "while in Huron wheat is expected to average 35 to 40 bushels to the acre. Barley and oats and fall wheat have all been cut in Haldimand. Ideal weather prevailed for the hay harvest in Leeds and farmers there are obtain- ing $22 per ton for'milk. Heavy rains in Lennox and Addington result- ed in an abundance of pasture and live stock is doing exceptionally Well. In “‘NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE {ll BUSY FARMER Weekly Crop Report Agricultural represexitatives of the province have reported during the past week that cuttmg of wheat is general 1hroughout Ontario. In Algoma, pro- and rest out of the sun. Another method is to stable the cows during the day and let them pasture at night. Shading and screening the windows provides a'dded coolness in the barn and also helps to control the flies. For the third, a succulent roughage may be fed as a supplement to pasturage. Ensilage or corn give very good re- sults. ' ‘ Aug. is the hardest month of the year for the dairy herds. “If milk pro~ c'uction can be maintained during the month little concern need be felt about maintenance of the milk flow during L‘ie balance of the reason,” declares one authority who has developed sove- rnl high record COWS. For meeting 'he difficulties of this trying month, )he suggests: Control of flies, protect- 'ion from the hot sun, ample supply of cool water, and the use of a succulent feed to supplement dried-out pastur- age. The first of these three mea- sures can be best secured by the use of a suitable spray. The second may be provided by shade trees in the pasâ€" ture under which the cows may feed l Labor Cost Important 3 It is said that the cost of feed is the most important, item in the cost of producing milk. It will amount to about one-half oi the total costs. La- int, however. IS a strong second. Acâ€" (Urding‘ in numerous surveys on this (ontinent, the average cost of labor involved in the production of 100 younds of milk will constitute about :25 per cent. of the selling price. The same survey indicates that the labor per cow ranges from 150 to 170 hours. The larger the herd the less labor per cow is a very general rule.

In order that this bylaw may be passed it is Lecessary that at least eighty per cent (f the bulls maintained within the county are purebred. The work has been slow but the events accruing are such that public sentiment is behind the movement. :h of Canadian poultry breeding stock. This is graphically presented in a novâ€" el and impressive exhibit which is in every sense a masterpiece of exhibit- ion art. ‘ Canada to The Fore The fourth World’s Poultry Conâ€" ; ress, which has been in seSSion at the Crystal Palace, London, Eng., holds la special interest for Canadians, parâ€" ticularly poultrymen. This country's participation takes the form of a nat- ional exhibit, a live stock exhibit, a minniercial exhibit, and a substantial contribution from Canadians in the form of scientific papers read at the Congress. The keynote of Canada’s National Exhibit is the economic wor- of this weed to the nearest répresent- ative. should not thresh their grain outside because the blooms will spread over adjoining areas, each seed having a ‘parachute bloom’ which will carry for miles and stay up in the air for many hours.” He advises farmers to cultiâ€" vate gang plow or plow immediately after harvest on fields that are not seeded down. It is important to keep sow thistle from blooming or going to seed wherever possible. More than 850 weed inspectors are now at work in Ontario and every farmer should make a point to report the presence Sow Thistle Spreading That the perennial sow thistle, rec- ognized as the world’s worst Weed, is ;,p1'eading at an alarming rate in some parts of Ontario is the statement of A .R.G. Smith, of New Hamburg, who as district Weed inspector for Western Ontario, advises farmers to be on their guard. Mr. Smith reports that many fields sown to spring grain in districts where the weed was hithertoV compar- atively unknown, are at present aj source of worry to farmers. He points: out: “If a perennial sow thistle plant comes to bloom it will mature its seeds unless the plant is burned. Farmers on spring grain are being studied undâ€" er the supervision of Prof. H. G. Bell and Mr. J. Bryden of the 0.A.C. On one farm a mixture of oats and barley was sown in two strips, oneâ€"half acre each. The first had been given an application of 0â€"14â€"â€"â€"G fertilizer and the other 3~10â€"5, in both cases 250 [Ounds to the acre. The fertilized oats and barley Were decidedly strong- er in growth and taller than the un- iertilized portions of the fields. At l'arvest time equal representative a- reas of these plots will be carefully harvested and yield: compared. Whet- her or not it will pay to use nitrogen will be gathered from a comparison of the results of the two fertilizers. Decrease in Alsike In 1929 over 2,000,000 pounds of aI~ 'sike seed were sown in Haldimand County, but this year scarcely a field lof alsike is to be seen. It was too (dry to get a catch last year. Red [clover has also suffered. The grow- ‘irg of small seeds is important and flhere are no less than 11 seed cleaning irlants within the county. Bluegrass, 50f which 1,000,000 pounds were pro- Inluced last year, is mostly exported. Tt comes with the alsike or the yea'r following and may yield around 200 lbs. to the acre. Fertilizer Experiments Thirty-two field experiments of various kinds are being conducted in Wellington this summei‘ under the Soil and Crop Improvement A5sociation TWo fields of soy beans and a nqmber of table turnip experiments are, being carried out. The effects of fertilizer on spring grain are being studied und- }Lincoln about 25 bushels per acre is faid to be the fall wheat yield. Ab- :ence of rain has caused Middlesex pastures to dry up and farmers there may have to find some other source of food. Oats are not expected to live up to the early predictions in Oxford on account of too early maturity. while inin is hoped for in Perth. Bumper crops of grain are expected in Ren- frew, while in South Simcoe, potatoes are not as promising as hoped. Wel~‘ land reports early purchases on the‘ market and a possible heavy grape Top.
