Current Crop Report An average yield of Fall wheat is indicated, although the straw is short. Spring grains are now heatiâ€" ing and growth is satisfactory Roots and canning crops are in healthy con- ditions Corn was planted'anvler fav- ounable conditions and is a geod stand. Cutting of alfalf't is general throughout the Province; while of good quality the yield is expéclei to be below average. Pasturage con- tinues excellent. Damage from wind and drought necessitated consider- able replanting of tobacco but a good stand has developed. Novel Flower Show The Exeter Horticultural Societ: has developed an interesting plan for- displaying flowers. Instead of hold- ing numerous flower shOWs in bum-l- ing‘s or other secluded placea, win- dow displays are arranged in tin leading stores and shops of the vill- age. Professor Knox Promoted Announcement is made by Hon. Duncan Mlarshall that Prof. R. G. Knox, who has- been connected with Ontario Agricultural College since his graduation in 1920, is to be head of the Department of Animal Hus- bandry. The position has been vaâ€" cant since Prof. J. C. Steckley, form- er head of the department, was named agricultural representative for Brant county. , The plan is to arrange for a disâ€" play of each leading flower in seaâ€" son. A committee is appointed for each display and members are enâ€" couraged to enter their best blooms.

HERRINGTON Real Estate Insurance Conveyancing Estates Managed Rents Collected It takes protein to produce milk, and protein is usually the high priced part of the ration, so if you can get more protein in your hay by cutting early, you can lower the cost of feeding. A high quality early out hay is not only high in protein, but it is also high in green leaves. This is important because early cut, green leafy hay contains more protein, more vitamins, more minerals, more after- math pasture and less woody indi- gestible fibre than late cut stemmy hay.

Fertilization of pastures has been practised at the Dominion Experi- mental Farm, Nappan, N.S., for the past fourteen years. Since 1929 de- finite experiments have been under way to permit a more thorough study of the value of fertilization of Pas- tures, as well as rOtating' versus con- tinuous pasturing. Fertilization of Pastures Good pasturage has long been reâ€" cognized as a real factor in success- ful farming. Particularly so, where live stock and live stock products form the major source of the income. Experience has shown that there is no other period of the year when the unit cost of production can be main- tained at as low an average as when live stogk are out on pasture, and that when it is a good pasture the net returns are still greater. Value of Hay Exceeds Gold For the ten-year period, 1925-1934, the value of Ontario’s hay crop was approximately double the value of the gold production in the province, (Lg. $701,402,000 as compéired with $356,â€" 906,000. It is the digestible nutrients in a crop that really counts when it comes to feeding. Hay provides digestible nutrients at less cost .than other crops, with the exception of good pasture, which produces digestible nutrients at the lowest cost of any of our crops. Relative Cost Per Ton of Digestible Nutrients roots. Injurious insects may be di vided roughly into two classes by the nature of their mouthpieces. namely (1) biting insects which bite and chew their food, such as cut-worms and other caterpillars, and leaf-eat- ing- beetles, and (2) sucking insects vhich suck up their food by means )f their beaks, such as aphids, the rue bugs, and the scale insects. If the insect is one with biting nouthparts, a stomach poison such 15 paris green, or arsenate of lead, ‘3 usually applicable, but if the in- :ect has sucking mouthparts, such noison would be useless because the insect would insert its beak through the poison and reach a safe feeding place beneath. For sucking- insects, therefore, contact insecticides are us- ually recommended, those commonly used being kerosene emulsion, whale oil soap, and preparations containâ€" ing tobacco. The results to date, from the use of complete fertilizer, have shown_a very definite increase in the carry- ing capacity; furthermore, that this increase is profitably obtained from the use of fertilizer. The results also show that a slightly greater carrying capacity can be secured from rotating the fields, but in some cases this increase may be offset by the increased cost of fencing.

Mr. King indicated the government intends to recast the Combines In‘ vestigation Act next session, and meanwhile any investigations requir- ed will be by royal commission. The Senate and the Commons deadlocked on an amendment to put “teeth†in the/act as it stands, the Senate re- jecting the government's proposal in that regard. No decision has been reached as yet by the cabinet on appeals to the Privy Council at London on the de- cisions of the Supreme Court of Can- ada with regard to the “reform†legislation passed by the Bennett government. Canada’s delegates to the League of Nations at its meeting within a few days will stand for lifting of the sanctions against Italy. The Domin- ion’s chief delegates will be Hon. Philippe Roy, Canadian minister at Paris, and Hon. Vincent Massey, Canadian high commissioner at Lon- don. With important government legis- lation having been approved this ses- sion on several counts, in connection with re-organization of the C.N.R. board, the radio commission, the Bank of Canada and a new National Harbor Board, the government will have to make a number of important appointments within the next few w'eeks. Prime Minister Mackenzie King will himself head Canada’s delega- tion to the League of Nations meetâ€" ing at Geneva next September be- cause of the critical situation in Eu- rope and the expected revision of the league covenant. He plans also to attend His Majesty’s coronation ‘in London next May, so he will not attend the unveiling by King Ed- ward VIII of Canada’s war memorial at Vimy Ridge on July 26 next. At that ceremony, the official govern- ment representatives will be Hon. Ernest Lapointe, minister of Justice, Hon. Ian Mackenzie, minister of na- tional defence, and Hon. C. G. Power, minister of pensions and national health. Sir Herbert Marler, Canadian min- ister at Tokio, for the past seven years, has been promoted and trans- ferred to a similar post at Washâ€" ington in place of Major W. D.

Mr. King said he would not go “on his hands and knees†to the Senate. Rt. Hon.

It upsets and un- nerves the more cautious drivers: increases the acci- dent hazard tremendously; and invariably saves only a very FEW minutes of time in the end. I appeal to BOTH kinds of drivers to let themselves be governed by the true SPIRIT of Courtesyâ€"to consider the convenience and the safety of fellow- motorists, as well as their rights. Let us show the same courtesy to others on the highway, that we show to visitors in our homes. It will go a long way toward making our highways SAFER. and in making motoring still more pleasant. l 2-] ALL OF US who drive motor cars have our individual preferences as to the speed at which we travel. Some of us like to drive slowly; others like to travel faster. (I am not referring to the “speed ï¬ends†who drive recklessly and dangerously, but to the rank and ï¬le of sane, sensible drivers.) There is a wide variation in our preferred speeds. When the road is clear and open, we have every reasonable right to give these preferences free rein, and travel at any speed which suits usâ€"up to- the legal limit. But I believe you will agree that when trafï¬c is heavy, it is neither courteous nor fair to travel faster or slower than the general speed at which the trafï¬c is moving. At such times, the deliberately slow driver blocks the road for all who are behind him. It becomes irksome and wearying to those who have long trips still ahead of them â€"and ï¬nally induces them to “cut in†or take chances which they would never take under other circumstances.
