Dr. McMurchy further states that the common cold causes half the deaths in Canada every year. V David J. Leslie of Toronto was 84 years of age on February 29th, which was his 20th birthday. There was no Feb. 29th in 1900 and consequently be went eight years in one stretch without a birthday. A great-grand- daughter, Dorothy Pratt, was 12 on Feb. 29th, thus celebrating her third birthday. “You may not like it but if you’ve got a. severe cold, you’re a pest and should be quarantined just as if you HAY AND GRAIN HARNESS SWINE “Increased lamb consumption will also reflect favorably in every Can/a.- dian homemaker’s budget,” added Mr. Tisdale, explaining that recent im- provements in feeding and marketing have made fresh Lamb unifome available every month of the year at The increased consumption of fresh Canadian lamb, he pointed out, will be of enormous benefit to farmers 4nd sheepbreeders across Canada and; will contribute substantially to the return of agricultural prosperity,‘ so vital to economic stability. Lamb Campaign Extension of the campaign. inaug- urated Last year by the Camdian Lamb Committee to eliminate season- al fluctuations in the price and con- sumption of fresh Canadian Lamb, has just been announced by W. H. J. Tisdale of Toronto, assistant general manager of the Canadian Coâ€"operative Wool Growers, and chairman of the committee. “The enthusiastic co-operation of the press and radio was responsible for the success of our initial work in Ontario and Montreal last fall,” de- clared Mr. Tisdale, “and the commit- tee will continue its efforts on a Do- minion-wide scale. Our aim is to ac- quaint Canadian housewives with the varied and attractive possibilities of fresh lamb and to have it more fre- quently included in the diet of every Canadian family.” no. 3, $5.00 to $6.50; oat and wheaf straw, $2.50 to $3; alfalfa, $4 to $10. Prices being paid! growers in this part of the province are: for no. 2 timothy and mixtures, $7.50 to $8.50; Hay Market Report There has been very little move- ,uent of hay from the production areas of eastern Ontario this season and‘ there is little indication of im- provement in the situation for some time. The principal movement in both northern and eastern Ontario has been of small lots to local dealers in the towns and villages, and- this hay is mostly being Bought locally at $5 per ton. There is still a lot of hay in southâ€"western Ontario al- though llrge quantities have been used on the farm, the result of the cold weather. There has been some difficulty in trucking hay into towns and cities recently on account of snow, nevertheless there is ample local hay to meet requirements. Good supplies of hay are reported from Bruce and Gray counties, along the 800 line and around Powass‘an. “Understand this,” the King re- plied, “I farm as an ordinary farmer and exhibit my beasts in competition with other farmers. They can’t pay high prices and neither will I. As for winning prizes by paying large sums for beasts, any Hoggenheimer can do that. I won’t.” The farm-manager agreed. But, he added, the bull had won many prizes and had been sold at; a good profit. The King said nothing until the animal had gone. Then, one Sunday afternoon, on his usual walk around the farms, he enquired if they had not bought some rather expensive cattle recently. A certain farm-manager on one of the royal farms bought a hull at a very high price. It swept the board at all agricultural shows. Finally it was sold at an even- high-er price. King George As Farmer King George loathed ostentation and publicity where his private activities were concerned. The late Lord Ponsonby, Keeper of the Privy Purse, told a story only five days be- fore his death which well illustrates this trait. Idea for Sugar Bush Ambrose Chambers, who operates a large sugar bush near the Village ‘of Waterford, Ontario, has hit upon an excellent time-slaving device in the ‘matter of emptying sap buckets. He paints one-half of the outer surface of the pail red and the other half yellow. When he has emptied eéch pail, he turns it around, so that from a. distance he can easly tell which pails have been emptied, thus saving a great many steps. It is necessary, of course, to have a. hole in each side of the upper edge of the bucket so that it can be hung on the tree with either the red or the yellow colour showing. ‘ Cheesemakers’ Short Course The Cheesemakers‘ Short Course which is usually held during the second week of February at the East- ern Dairy School, Kingston, is post- poned until March 24 to 27. Weather and travelling conditions are likely to be more favourable than in mid- winter. The latter part of March is just before the opening of the cheese factory season and the information obtained will be fresh in the minds of the makers. NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE BUSY FARMER THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL. ONTARTO In 1698, when England had long enjoyed constitutional freedom under n. new dynasty, the son of an inm keeper passed himself on the Yeo- manry of Sussex as their beloved Monmouth and defrauded many who were by no means of the lowest class. Five hundred pounds were collected for him. The farmers provided him with a horse. Their wives sent him baskets of chickens and ducks and were lavish, it was said. of favors of a mom tender kind. When the in- For a time he lived in Holland and ‘r'ro-m there crossed over with a small hand of followers and landed in the west of England where he was ac- ‘orded an'enthusiastic reception by the common people. Being poorly equipped and possessing- little money his uprising could not continue againsft the forces of the government and his followers were soon scattered and himself captured, tried and ex- ecuted. So great was his popularity that of him a. well known historian has writtenPâ€"“His hold on the hearts of the people lasted till the generation that knew him had passed away. Ri- hnnds. buckles, and other trifling ar- ticles of apparel that he had worn, were treasured up as precious relics by those who had fought under him at Sed‘gemoor. Old men who long survived him desired, when they were dying, that these trinkets might be buried with them. Nay. such was the devotion of the people to their un- happy favorite that, in the face of the strongest evidence by which the fact of a death was ever verified. many continued to cherish a hope that he was still living- and that he would again appear in arms. A person. it was said, who was remarkably like Monmouth, had sacrificed himself to save the Protestant hero. The vulgar long continued at every important crisis to whisper that the time was at hand and that “King- Monmouth” would soon show himself. In 1686. a knave who had pretended to be the Duke, and had levied contributions in several villages of Wiltshire, was ap- prehended, and whipped from New. gate to Tyburn. It is very true that Monmouth was executed for leading a rebellion, not against William of Orange, but against James II who became King; of England after the death of his bro- ther Charles in 1685. The rebellion led by Monmouth and his execution took place fahe same year. During the reign of Charles; Mon- mouth enjoyed great popularity in England and .was a great favorite among- the common people. On the rleath of Charles he claimed the fhmne as his son. ed after leading a reberllion‘ William of Orange almost three cen- tu‘ljes ago." DUKE OF MONMOUTH In its issue of Nov. 2nd the To- ronto Star Weekly carried an article written by M. H. Hutton, correspon- dent to the Star papers in London, England. The title was “Scotland sends the Bride” and in describing the bride of the Duke of Gloucester; stated that she is a descendent of the Dykerf Monmouth “who was execut- 7. The various factors mentioned have a. marked influence on the mone- tary value of farms. 6. Scattered woodland increase considerably the beauty of a country- side. 3. The farmer has more difficulty to grow crops and wheat and clover kill out because the fields lack the protection that is given by woodland. 4. Deforestation on hillsides and valleys is often followed by‘ erosion and sandy soil is liable to develop into valueless sand dunes. 2. Springs and wells that previous ly had a steady supply of water go dry, because the woodland that was a reservoir has been removed. 5. Woodland helps to control floods as it retards the surface run- off in all seasons. ~ Value of Woodland to Agriculture 1. The farmer with a woodlot has a cheap and convenient supply of fuel, while the one Without a woodlot has to haul wood long distances and make a. cash outlay to purchase coal or wood, and often the farmhouse is not adequately heated; Woodlots have a definite part in the economic set-up of an agricultur- al section and the individual farm, and if a sufficient percentage of land is‘ not left in woodland there are liable to be discomforts and loss‘ as the influences of woodland are far reach- mg. A Plan for the Woodlot ‘ (By J. C. Marritt) ‘ Man does not realize or appreciate ‘fully the value of certain factors and influences that help to make life more comfortable and pleasant until they are taken away for a time. Woodland in the agricultural sections of Ontario is an excellent example of this as all farms had plenty of wood for fuel and timber to build houses and barns. There was so much that it was very difficult to conceive the prospect of a shortage, but to-day there are many farms without wood- lots and the farmer With a fine wood- lot is envied by his neighbours. consistently moderate prices Canada lags far behind other Brit- ish countries with an annual per capita consumption of 7.2 lbs., he said, while New Zealand has 144.4, Aus- tralia 82, South Africa 24.3, and Great Britain 31.
