For the amount of capital invat-l ed farming, generaliyspeaking. rc- turna the lowest rate of interest of lily of our great industries and for this there must be surely some cause. To the writer it seems that perhaps there are two which stand out more prominently than any other factors which may be found. ,

The first seems lack of co-opera- tion and the other lack of business principle.» ‘

One often hears that cost of trans! portation-takea the major part. of what should rightly belong to the producer. This may be true, but how does this happen. First our railway- imen are organized. ‘llhey get a liv- ing wage for what we farmers call u brief day's work. I will not say that they do riot give the public their moneys worth; that is their concern Carpenters also are organized arwell trades, even to c laborers. Thus we have added transportation and higher priced manufactured articles; but when one speaks of farming one does not find a. united band of workers. Farmers are really a class of individualism hopelessly at the mercy of all other produceds. merchants, capitalists and so the one solution of the farmers problem would be organiza- tion. both for production, anddls- tribution of goods produced.

‘rhcrc seems to be only one way to organize farmers and that is to educate them. Our school system, if followed right through to its high- est standard, turns out excellent grammarians. historians mathematic- ism, and is u. basic education of a lawyer, doctor. preacher or profes- ’ sor. To this present system of educa- tion the farmer largely contributes his hard eamed money and watches his most intelligent children being edu- cated to fill iulmostany other calling. except. that of farming,

True we have ‘agricultural colleges. but-in many eases while we would iiiia to have all our children take ad- vantage of a fun agrcuitural course we are unable to do so on account of our limited means or owing to that. lack of proper organization and busi- nus methods.

Something must surely be wrong with this system when the only thing | we get in common wi.h the children ' o! the merchant as carpenters, in so far as fitting them for life's problems is, concerned, are the principles of fair dealings for their fellow crea- tures. I

‘ Why not educate the farmer of io- morrow along agricuhural lines. say from the third. grade up. Teach him. for instance, that it would be almost imposslbloior one man to build those hugebarns frequently found on good farms, butnhat they are the pro- ductrof the winited endeavour of many men and that one man alone (individualism) ooulrl erect only a mean building, and also teach him

walk of iife.

Aa we farmers, working individual- ly. are sun to get into that habit of thinking alone, and in this we are putting ourselves against pracicaily the whole world.

Aa a general rule farmers are a shrewd and run hard bargains with each other but when he comes up against organized industry he finds that individualism does not get him anywhere. Why? Merchants and dealers set the price on not only what he buys but on whit he sells and oftentimes we arc producing at a loss.

As a concrete example of organiza- tion we find that railwaymen do not tramc n each‘ cher tools. 'I‘hey all ride home from work on the same trolfy. but. we farmerrwith our in- dividualism would possibly. if we had to do this work, would each have a

The task o! selecting a herd sire is perhaps the most difficult to be discharged by u' breeder. By the be- ginner especially. certain general facts should be kept in mind.

There is a great truth in the say- ing that "the bulll is half the herd" and in selecting a stock bull the, greatest posibile care should be ex- ercised, not only as regards the lines of breeding, but also as regards in- dividual merit andibreed character.

In his selection the breeder should kcep in mind any defects that may be apparent in his cows and breedin! heifers, as it: will be found that I bull strong in these particular points will generailybreed out these do- fects. or at least make them less pro- minent in his offspring. i

An opportunity may occur oi pur- chasing approved breeding bull which has been in use in some well known herd. and such an opportunity should be taken advantage of. As a rule however, such hulls have had to go to the block when their usefulness should only be beginning as one has to have the offspring of any sire up to milking age to prove his ability; many good bulls have found their way to the slaughter house long be- fore their ‘daughters have shown that they were sires worthy of the name. ‘

The price lobe paid for a. bull de- pends on buyer, oron the position which his herd occupies or that he may wish it to occupy.

It is a safe rule to buy the best that can be afforded, for money spent wisely on a good bull will he found to be a profiuable investment,

Because a buii is low priced should be no recornmendatlomfor his pur- chuse——such a buii may be far from being a bargain he ls cheap! Yes, and more ways than one; an‘. a single season of an inferior buii will do an incalculable amount of harm. 1t is mainly through the sire that im- provement of the herd can be effect- ed. and the opposite is perhaps even more lfllii. so that. every care and cf- fort should be directed toward a building up the herd by the pur- chase on each successive occasion of a bull‘ of still higher standard than his predecessors.

The owner of a proveri bull will probably receive tempting offers for his purchase, but such a. bull should not be lightly»pa.rted wish until such a time arrives when in brcpding would hamper improvement.

Today when wc have so many qualified dams of every breed one does not need to go far to procure a good sire and the slogan “Better Eulls" should standout clearly as the fiiegreat essential in hefd im- provement. -

Protection Of Trccs

(Experimental Farms Note)

Every year many fruit trees in Cun- ada src girdled by mice and rabbits. Fortunately, the rabbits do not injurc the trees so regularly as the mice nor are as general in their injurious. work ‘as it very diffcult to prevent their ‘ravages. In the case cf mice, however. Yif some precaution is taken, i; is pos- ‘sible to prevent serious injury.

Two methods are adopted at tlie Central Experimcntal Farm. Ottawa one is to wrap the trunks of the trees with building paper. and the other i..- to encircle the trunk Will] u wire pro- tcctar with a small enough mesh in prevent a mouse going through. In either case. the paper 01' protector must be put clorc to the ground as usually, the mice arc working close ~ to the ground beneath the snow, and, if there is a place under iiic protec- ter where they can get in, they will girdle the trunk and possibly ruin the tree. These protectors should be put on as soon as possible now as some-

time the mice bogin gnawing trunks of young trees before winter Trees lip to six inchcs in

diameter should be protected yvlisrc mice are troublesome, Another plan. when one has neglected to put on protectors before winter, is to trhmpi down the snow about the trcc alter the first snowfall. thus preventing iiie mice from ‘working under the snow near the tree. Another plan, where‘! snow does not come curly is to put? cow clung about tree. This freezes to the ground and prevents the mic-c getting at the tree. Care should be taken to not have the manure against

time and that setto music.

The sporting editor cf a localpaper also greatly enjoyed the affair. where the hero and theyiliain-battled for the lovely maiden-as a, reward. He. thinks that “Hugh the Drover" and John the Butcher should exhibit in public as a couple “light beams" l saw them fight it out over the Sher- iff's daughter‘ with bare knuckles- and what a pip of a battle it was. Hugh the Tremolo Tenor, was out- weighed a full stone and liiidibfl give away a couple of pctaves, but he wasn't a bit of scairt. lnfact he was a hero and had to win the blonde dame so he took on Bauling Baritone at. catch weights and no bolts barred. In the first ‘round he was knocked cuckooand ‘continued to fight from memory. The rest of the classic tale was told by the roars of applause as the Butcher Boy‘ went down and out over the ropes. »
