D. Mac- Leod, Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch, Ont. Dept. of Agriculture, Toronto. The practice of shovell‘ ing them outside the 'barn is too prevalent and should be discourag- ed. When this is done, millions of seeds are carried by the wind, wat- er, animals, birds, and by man himâ€" self and new areas are infested. Carelessness in the disposal of weed seeds is one direct cause of the weed problem. It is important that all weed seeds be gathered up im- mediately after the mill has left and Last year he bought three cows from Douglas Hart. famous Wood- 'stock breeder, and at the recent Lakehead exhibition, he showed elev- en of his herd of sixteen, obtaining 6 Firsts, 4 Seconds and 1 Third as well as Grand Champion Holstein female.

This source of infestatfon need not exist any longer. The matter of remov- ing weed seeds from the grain when “threshing and of cleaning the ma- ‘chine before moving is one for co- 'operation between the thresher and ‘the farmer. Fanmers are urged to 'assist in cleaning the dutfit after Ithreshing has been completed. Do “not permit the threshing machine to 'carry weed seeds on to your farm.

Legislation in the Weed Control Act now makes it necessary for ev- ery threshing machine to be tho-r- oughly cleaned before moving fram farm to farm or before travelling upon a public highway. The fact that one wild mustard seed will pro- ‘duce a plant and that an average plant will mature 15,000 seeds is a clear indication of the importance of thoroughly cleaning the mill ibeJ fore moving. This operation will ‘take only a few minutes and will 'save many dollars and much hard work. Dated at Richmond Hill, August 10th, 1939. The threshing machine has been one of the agencies responsible for 'the present weed problem. If the 'machine is not'well cleaned after threshing and before moving, weed' seeds may be carried from one farm to another and be distributed along roadways and lanes. Some thresh- ers have always taken pride in their work and cleaned their outfits be- fore moving. Others have done so. Weed seeds are shaken or blown off such mills when moving and roadâ€" sides, fence lines and fields become polluted. “throughout Ontario. Much can be said in its favour. Hoxvever, if a field which is badly infested with Sow Thistle or Canada Thistle is threshed from the stock on a windy day, enough seeds will be carried for miles to infest an entire comâ€" munity. Where such conditions exist, farmers are urged to have some consideration for their neighbours and to Select, if pOSsible, a location which will preVenrt seeds from blow- ing over adjacent farms. A spray- ing device is now being used effect- ively by a number of threshers. By means of this equipment a fine spray of water is forced into the blower when threshing. This spray, which does not injure the straw, as- sists in preventing seeds from blow- ing, the amount of dust is reduced, 'barns are cooler when threshing in early fall, and the fire hazard is eliminated.

Presently they came to a butcher’s shop, and one of them nointed to a number of hams hang:- ing from a large ho‘llv branch. “Look, Tom,” he said. “Look at them ’ams a-growin’ up there.” “Mollie,” said the prettier of the two, “would a stocking hold all you would‘ like for Christmas?" “Well, that’s all you know about it,” said the first scornfully. “Ain’t you ever 'erd of a ’amAbush?” The Negro person was preaching from the text: “And darkness fell upon the earth, an'd gross darkness on the minds of the people." “N0,” said the other. it would not But a pair of socks would.” Notice is hereby given that unless the arrears of taxes and‘ costs are sooner paid, the Treasurer will pro- ceed- to sell the lands on the day aml at the place named in such List pub- lished in the Ontario Gazette.

Each 1 the best breed car owner invari Leghorn requires less room than the heavy breeds. This means a saving in housing cests. A Leghorn re- quires three square feet, while a heavy breed such as a Barred Rock requires four square feet. Due to this. a third more Leg-horns can be placed in a pen than Barred Rocks. Honours for egg production are pretty well divided between Leg- horns, Barred Rocks and New Hampshires. although the Leghorn gives a white egg that seems to be desired in some localities! The cliff- erence in the cost of producing each variety is not enough to be econ- omivcally significant. For early broilers, the Leghorns are some- times a little more desirable, as the white pin feathers are not as con- spicuous as dark ones when the bird is dressed. The Leghorn is a very nervous bird and seems to be more susceptible to upsets due to sudden changes in temperature, and change of feed, and is certainly not as re- sistant to extreme cold weather as a heavier breed. The great attracâ€" tion of a heavy breed is that two profits can ‘be made in one year. The first is from the sale of eggs and the second from the sale of the bird for meat. It is very difficult to sell a Leghorn hen after the egg laying- season. for an amount that would coven the cost of her produc- tion. A beginner is well advised to choose a heavy breed until suf- ficient experience is accumulated to enable him to handle the more ner- vous Leghorn successfully. “The class is dismissed," announc- ed the teacher in a weak voice.
