Selection of Eggs for Hatching The Department of Poultry Hus»- ibnndry, OA.C., Guelph, in Bulletin 879, “Palm Poultry," advise to “seâ€" lect eggs for size, shape and cobm‘. 1111 view of the weight standard for market eggs, it is wise to select eggs for hatching which are two eunce-s or better in weight. It is well to keep in mind that two-ounce mullet eggs are equal to a. somewhat ‘heavier egg from the same bird as a hen. Continuous selection, year af- ter year, will: give results. Do not select dirty eggs or handde eggs with soibed hands. The egg shell is morons, hence there is a possibility of contamination.” “Eggs deteriorate in hatching quality: with. age. When holding eggs for hatching, keep them in a cool place at about fifty to sixty degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature should uniform. Be sure that the place is clean and not musty. Eggs for Thatching should be kept not longer ihan ten days, and the sooner the eggs are set after being laid, the better the hatch is likely to be.” Omnnervation Committees There has been a conservation committee appointed by many of the county councils this year. One of: the first questions asked is what ac- tivities should and will the commit- tee sponsor? Naturally they wish to accomplish something- tangible, and this often leads to a planting scheme. Planting is necessary and :1] work along this line is to be cornâ€" mended. Is planting the m0st im- portant and is it not over-empha- sized when compared to other ac- tivities that a conservation commit- tee might carry on?

This reproduction may be se- cured naturally, that is from the seed that falls from the large trees Hand the farmer does not have to imalce a cash outlay. It is a guar- ‘antee that there will be a woodlot there 50 â€" 75 years hence. The natural renroduction is interfered with and in many woodlots; elimin- ated by the grazing of livestock. More reforestation could be secured in a few years from natural repro- duction if all woodlots had the stock shut out than will by planting in the next fifty years. Planting“ On The Farm W'oodland on the farm is consid‘‘ ered an asset b‘yl most farmers. The owner of a 10â€"15 acre woodlot is in-. [dope-lent in regard to fuelwood and 'lumber for repairs and minor buildâ€" 1ing around the farm. An agricul-i tural district will grow better crops* and living conditions are improved .if 10-15 per cent. of the area is in ‘ woodland. It is a windbreak for the crops in winter and summer and: helps to control floods by holding back and reducing the surface rimâ€" off. Woodland acts as a reservoir that tends to keep a regmlar supply of water in the wells and springs. There are odd corners around] the farm buildings that are not and nev- er will be utilized. These corners if planted would improve the app-ear- ance of the farm, keep down weeds and be growing something- of value. IVery little planting is necessary or will be successful in a woodlot that has not been pastured' for years, as nature has attended to the starting of a new crop of trees. Planted trees would be crowded out biyl the vigorous trees that have started from seed. Trees may be planted in a corner-that has not seeded. up or an evergreen windbreak may be needed on: the north and west sides of the woods. ‘ " Planting will be successful in an openpastured woodlot. The planting will speed up the restocking, and it gives the owner an opportunity to introduce valuable species such as pine, spruce, walnut, oak and! white ash. White spruce, whitelpine and sugar maple will grow under the shade of light foliaged trees such as poplar and paper birch. The trees in the pastured woods and under- pl‘anting under poplar do not require the 6 foot spacing that is rec0m- mended for open land planting as there will be natural reproduction starting if the stock are kept out. There are areas on many farms that would be better growing trees. It may be a steep hillside that is difficult to work, or that is eroding. Sandy and gravelly soils are often a liability if them are not growing trees. There are small irregular fields that are cut off by a creek, road or railroad. Landowners in Ontario may secure free small trees for planting- wind- breaks, plantationi and restocking woodlots. Application forms and deâ€" scriptive literature may be secured by applying to The Forestry Branch, Parliament Buildings. Toronto, tree nurseries at St. Williams, Midhurst and Orono, or the county agricul- tural offimg. The area in woodland should be increased in many districts and mosd; farms would be better if some plant- ing was done. Each farmer should carefully survey his farm, and de- cide on the locations that shOuld be lanted. fire to run through cutâ€"over lands. How can we encourage farmers to take measures to preserve the wood- land' that remains on their farms. If a. farmer considers the woodlot an asset, he will preserve it. A wood- .-~‘ u.“ u“...â€" _, . lot that pays dfividends is more liable to be preser'ed than one “at .loes- n’t.

THE GULLET CRIPPLE Picture a fine healthy baby girl of eighteen months in her high- chair by the kitchen table. Mother is in the cellar finishing up a. heavy washing with small brother trying to be helpful. He- takes a load of washing accessories to the kitchen out; of mother’s way, and puts them on the table. Baby reaches out glee- fully for a cup he has placed within relach, takes a drink, and drops it in a fit of choking. Loud screams from baby and brother bring mother on the jump. In a flash mother realizes that baby has the cum in which she had the 1er for washing. There must have been a few drops left in it. But is this sort of aceiden’c very common?

Sugar solution was inject. edl into her veins and she was.taken to the operating room for an exam- ination of her g'ullet. Under the anaesthetic (for the baby must be motionless and the rigid tuibes used for the work hurt) it was discovered that the gullet was almost complete- ly closed. AfteT a long‘ search. a. tiny opening that would admit a very fine probe (or bougie) was discov- ered. Larger and larger instruments were passed until one the size of a quill had passed through the tight place into the stomach. Next dam, baby could swallow milk again. The poor mother sees this and] is over- joyed. but her joy is turned to sad~ ness when she hears what is in store for her baby. “Oh, well! Baby’s month has been burned‘ a bit but it will heal in a few daysâ€"things might have been worse.” Baby was apparently all right in a few days but did not seem very comfortable at meal time. Gradu- ally the swallowing: difficulty became worse until finally. she could not even: take water. One day about a month after the accident, baby ar- rived at the hbsrpital. She was lit- erally starving to death and was frantic with thirst. If she was t0 a scar but the scar contracts and closes the g-uUet.
