This gives her a total production for her first two lactations of 1,347 pounds of butter fat and 39,732 pounds of milk. This is another Canadian champ- ionship award by a very wide mar- gin as the two lactation production figures in this instance exceed those of flhe former champion, Pietje Col- antha Dewdrop, by 100 pounds but- ter fat and 4,922 pounds of milk. This ionsflu'p 2"m as figures NEW CHAMPION MILK PRODUCER ROY H. Barker, Woodbridge, is the owner of a new champion milk pro- ducer for all Canada. The new reâ€" cord holder, Glenlonelyl Wood'brid‘ge Echo, is a three-yearâ€"old Holstein and her 365 day production of 22,433 pounds of milk is the highest in Can- ada for a heifer t'his age on twiceâ€" aâ€"d‘ay milking. In butter fat her year production of 777 pounds is only one pound below that of the Canadian clhampion three-yearâ€"old, Yosephine Avbbek-erk Helbon. Some cows are equipped with glasses to prevent snow blindness in the northern part of Russia and Si. be'ria, where snows are heavy. Of course all reforming is done by sap’s.

I. met at the home of Mrs. D. Julian on Tuesday afterâ€" noon. The president, Mrs. C. H. Rutherford presided. A letter was read from the blind and a donation of ten dollars was voted to that Work.

The freeze-out was won by Mr. Geo. Brownlee and Mrs. J. A. McNeil. VEI ‘LORE Selecting New Farm Machines A new machine should be purchas- ed only after due consideration of its usefulness to the purchaser. A little thinking ‘befom buying will save time, worry and expense later. Steps taken at once to see that ma- chines are “all set and ready to go” will likely be more profitable than has been the case of late years. Field breakdowns and delays while wait- ing for replacement parts will be even more expensive than usual as they may: subject increasingly valu- able crops to weather hazards. Also, more direct savings from early (wer- hauls are probable as there are not the extra charges for telegrams and‘ express for early repair orders that may be required with rush shipments. Where overhauling by hired mechan- ics is needed, more time and atten- tion may be expected. now than later on when emergency calls for service are frequent. The size and capacity of new m9.- chines should be considered in the light of future as well as present needs, since the machine will likely be used for many years. Price is important too, and it is well to view it from the standpoint of extra value. reputation of the manufacturer, 9.- vailability of repair service, and suit- The majority of feeds registered lwere mashes, as whole scratch- grain mixtures made by blending the com- mon grains are not subject to regis- tration. Laying mashes as usual were most numerous, accounting for 384 brands. Chick starters followed with 232 brands and growing or develop- ing mashes with 201. The remainder included fattening, breeding, pullet, cockerel, broiler, moulting and bat- tery mashes, hen. chick and develop- ing scratches and turkey, duck and pigeon feeds. Are field implements readlm? Is good seed‘ all ready? Are fertilizers all ready? Every farmer in Ontario should be able to answer “Yes” to these three questions by the end of March. An old adage says that “A job well be- gun is half done.” Nowhere is this more vitally true than in the grow- ing of crops on the farm, and any Ontario farmer who can answer “Ye-s” to the above questions on Ap- ril Ist has his season’s job well be- Spring is at Handâ€"Are You Ready? Until the expected increase in the farmer’s income has become a real- ity: much old machinery will have to be used. It Will be well to‘ remem- ber that in order to take advantage Make Best Use of the Old Equipment of any possible improvement that may come in farm business the best possible use should be made of the equipment we have. Ready-Mixed Feeds There is no lack of choice in ready- mixed feeds from which Canadian poultry raisers may: select their re- quirements. In 1936 no less than 1,003 brands of feeds, the product of 276 manufacturers, were register- ed under the Feeding Stuffs Act. This is an increase of ten per cent. over the previous year and does not include upwards of 100 brands of mixed supplementary feeds designed to supply proteins, minerals and vit- amins to balance home-grown grains. The boot now introduced which can be obtained in sizes keeps the dress- ing in place and experiments have shown that normal cases of foot-rot can be cured in a week with one or two dressings through the use of the boot. The boot is proof against: acid as well as water and is made in five sizes. It is shaped in a fash- ion to avoid chafing. Boots for Sheep with Foot Rot To enable dressings to be retained on the feet of sheep suffering from foot-rot, a rubber boot has been de- signed which closely fits a sheep’s foot. At present sheep affected by‘ foot-rot may have their feet dressed! with ointment or other remedies and' then be turned out without any cov- ering on the wound. The result is that the ointment is soon rubbed off, and the treatment has to be renewed: again and again. Good Hopper Accommodation | Provide enough hoppers to the pen' so that there will be at least 1 footl of hopper space to every 4 hens as well as placing them at right angles to the windows sa that the birds: will not stand in their own lighti when feeding. Where there is com! siderable bossing going on in thei flock, the returns will be worthwhile! if a hopper and water container are! placed on the roosts during the dayl so that the bossed hens will have a: chance to eat and drink without in- terference. NEWS AND INFORMATION FOR THE BUSY FARMER THE LIBERAL, RICIMOND HILL, ONTARIO SEASONAL HINTS (From the 0-A.C.) For barley grown for malting ap- ply 250 pounds per acre of 2-12-10. If the umpire won’t call strikes unless they are over, shall we get a new umpire or change the rules? Where spring grains follow hoed crops which were manured or fer- tilized heavily. apply 0-12â€"6, or 0-12- 10 at 250 pounds per acre. More bushels of better filled grain have resulted where the plant food was well balanced. Rate tests on several farms gave an average in- crease in yield of oats of 28.5 bushels per acre where 2-12-6 was sown at 250 pounds per acre. For oats. barley and mixed grain on soils of low fertility where cer- eals follow crops which have not been fertilized, apply 250 pounds per acre of 2-12-6 or 2-12-10, the latter on lighter soils. If yields were light last year, and if the plan is to sow oats, barley, mixed grain or corn where the man- ure was applied, it will ‘most likely pay to add 200 to 250 lbs. per acre of 0-12-6 or 0-12-10 or 20% Superphosâ€" phate. What fields were manured last fall and winter? Did they get a heavy or light covering? Check Your Fertilizer Needs for 1937 ability to one’s particular needs. Since modern methods require speed and durability, a comparison of to- day’s models with earlier models should show many improvements. This is particularly true with respect to bearings, lubsication methods, and design for strength and mobility.
