It is hoped, where at all possible, there will be at least one lady delegate from each Society. sion. An afternoon will be devoted to problems confronting Women’s Committees. For the first time a, separate meeting of women delegates, is be- ing arranged, as part of the annual Agricultural Society Convention, to be held in Toronto, February 11-12, 1937.

The following dates have been nounced by the officers:â€" There is no need to pay fancy prices for mineral supplements. The necessary ‘minerals, supplied in pro- per form and balance, are not costâ€" ly, with the exception of iodine; but this element, fortunately, is required in only very small amount. “Hay,” says Dr. McConkey, “is‘ the most valuable crop grown in Ontario; it covers 30% of the cultivated acre- age... Some farmers are producing hay which is four times higher in protein than others, and a consider. able percentage of our hay is too low in the essential minerals to maintain healthy animals.” Supplements Needed for Winter Feeding Dr. -0. McConkey of the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph strikes 12. note of timely warning in a recent Ibulletin when he says: “In the drought areas of the province min- eral deficiency troubles with live- stock will be more acute during the winter feeding period of 1936â€"37, beâ€" cause phosphorus is not readily taken in by plants during dry seasons. The winter feed's will contain less phos- phor-us than usual, and it will be a wise precaution to start feeding- a recognized mineral supplement early in the stable feeding period and so prevent trouble and loss.” Demandzâ€"Quiet generally, the main exception being in northern Ontario where a fair quantity of hay is moving to the lumber camps and cities. A small quantity of alfalfa is moving- from southwestern On- tario for export to the United States. Priceszâ€"In the eastern part of the province, alfalfa no. 2 grade $10. Red Glover and timothy mixed no. 2 grade, $5 to $7. No. 2 timothy $5.50 to $9. In northern Ontario, no. 2 timothy $10. At Fort William, no. 1 timothy and no. 1 clover $10. In southâ€"western Ontario no. 2 timothy 1$8 to $10. Alfalfa no. 2 grade $9 to $11. Wheat and oat straw $3 to $5. Rye straw $4 to $6. Supply:â€"A fairly large supply is located in the eastern and northern parts of the province. There is also a sufficient supply in southâ€"western Ontario as there was a large carry over from the 1935 crop. Some 900 carloads of timothy and clover hay are located in Rainy River, Dryden. and Fort William, districts in north- western Ontario. . . Hog Market Report ..

Early youth, the years between fifteen and twenty-five. is an especially danger- ous time for the development of tubercu- losis. It is at this time. when young people are in high school. colle e or just entering into industry. that tu crculosis takes its greatest toll. Because it; is not discovered and treated in time. the disease gets a. foothold and becomes fatal in as many as eigflny young people out of every 100,000 at; ages twenty- flve to twenty-nine. 1’ all young men and women between fifteen and thirty could be given a, proper chest, X-ray examination. if those found to have the disease could be given proper care. and if all the sources from which they were infected could be found. tuberculosis could easily be brought, under control. These three “ifs” are difficult but not impossible to attain. one?" Wife: “A new one, of course.” Husband: “Here’s the oneâ€"and I’m $4 to the good.” Hufiband: “Certainly. Would you rather have an old five or a new But. in spite of all that has been done and in spite of the continued decline in deaths from tuberculosis. it. is sad to note that; 1.303 people died of this disease in Ontario last year. It is doubly sad to learn too that there are about 6.500 active cases of tuberculosis in this Province right now. And what is more to the club, more than half of the people who ied of tuberculosis last. your and of those who are now sick. are young People in the prime. productive ages of ife. between fifteen and forty-five. Sixty our, of every one hundred deaths froTi‘n t‘uberculosis occur in_ these ages, I Carelessness or unsanitary condiâ€" tions are usually responsible for the presence of these pests. They thrive on dirty hens and multiply rapidly in filth if it is allowed to accumuâ€" late in corners or cracks and crev- ices of the henhouse. ‘ Lice live entirely on the body of ithe bird and irritate by crawling and ]'biting. Their eggs are laid: at the gbase of the feather, usually around the vent or under the wing. Fortunâ€" ately they are easily controlled and ‘by using ordinary precautions the lflock may be kept free and clean. [The usual practice on the Experi- 'men'tal Station at Harrow, is to apâ€"‘ ply Blue Ointment. which can be ob- tained at any drug store. A porâ€" tion of Blue Ointment about the size of a pea is smeared! between the thumb and first and second fingers and rubbed in around the vent and at the base of the wing close to the body. One thorough application when the birds are being placed' in their winter quarters is usually sufficient to keep them clean for the year. However, the birds should be exam- ined at intervals because a re-infes_ tation may occur during hot weather. The red mites do not stay on the birds constantly. As a rule they spend the day in some crack or cre- vice or on the underside of the roosts, preying on the birds at night by piercing the skin and gorging them- selves with blood. The control is comparatively simple. A solution of 1 to 3 crude carbolic and kerosene or one of the good coal tar preparaâ€" tions usually used as a disinfectant may be applied with a brush to the dropping board's, roasts, and nests afâ€" ter they have been thoroughly scrap- ed and cleaned. In the case of a bad infestation, when the mites have mi- grated to all parts of the house, a thorough cleaning and spraying with one of these agents will be necessâ€" ary and should be repeated after an interval of two or three days. Scores of thousands of people have died of tuberculosis in Ontario during the last thirty-five years. most of whom might have been saved it treated in time. In a little over three decades the deaths from tuberculosis in Ontario have been reduced from about 160 for each 100.000 livin persons to 37 at the present time. n fact, your chances and mine of dying of tuberculosis are less than one-third of what they were at the turn of the present century. More than 4.400 men, women and children will celebrate Christmas with you and me this year who would have died of tubvrculosis in 1936 if this disease were killing to-day at the same rate as in 1000. when the work of the National Sanitarium Association was just nicely gettingunder way. > Poultry Parasites At this season red mites and body lice frequently cause serious loss in production, deaths may follow a bad infestation among both the young and the old stock, and considerable time and care may be required to bring the flock back into condition after the trouble has been located. ads or for milk production, because t is deficient in flesh.forming con- atituents. It is, therefore, not a pro- fitable fodder by itself for those “vurpos-es. A liberal mixture of clo- ver improves it. It is‘ favored for work horses that have heavy grain rations as well, and, on account of its digestibility, it is the standard bay for livery horses required to work immediately after feeding. 9n LIFE, DEATH AND TUBERCULBSIS THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO A few days ago a northbound freight train killed a large bull moose on the ‘tracks near Banks Falls. The moose charged the train and when struck was thrown thirty feet to the fence along the right of way. Silence may be golden, but gossip gains currency. Although the competition was Lkeene'r than in former years, the Hereford herd of Black Bros., Cale- don, held their pllace at the Royal Winter Fair, being the only herd of Herefords: in Ontario to win a first prize. With twelve entries Black Bros. won thirteen prizes, consisting of 3 firsts, 3 seconds, 1 third, 4 fourths and 2 reserve champions. An’ when Ole Santa Claus comes roun’ he’ll surely be agin yo’.

The demand was;' made in a special report of the Fin-| ance committee to council which was adopted. “The efficiency of our well trained police magistrates, we be. lieve, supersedes the end for which the grand jury was established,” the report stated. i Some people think that they work hard! because they get easily worked up about other people’s work. There are none so blind as those who face strong headlights. One touch of sunshine makes the whole world skin. PROVERBS REVISED Every picture yells a story. The darkest hour is just before the pawn.
