Pastures and"BIis'i'e
0,55 lands survived the winter ‘auditions exceptionally well. and e are indications of good acre-
“ or clover in the new meadows. A long period of dry weather, how- "gr, and cold winds. can mater- “uy change prospects, and in this connection we wonder whether any ‘pedal provision is being made for
pasture yields. one of "1, most important crops, the “Mg value of which over a num- M. or years exceeds thst of any on", crop of production, is Just pm“ grass. When we consider me mpm of our hay and pasture mpg supporting our livestock popu- mwn we are impressed with its ‘mt values
A, we same time we do not em- pmme as much as we should its ure and development. Fertilizers no mostly placed on potatoes with smaller quantities on other crops. Vuy mile goes on our pasture- m,d,_ m a moist. wet year pas- umg 3ur\'lV8 pretty well, but in , dry year conditions are not so good. The application, therefore of gmilizers, and the general care at pastures,_ can influence, to a my great extent, the economy of farm operation.
one of our most concentrated Itudlrs and progressive practices mould be concerned with the im- provement of our pastures and my imds. The greater the carry- mg capacity of an acre of land 50; pasture, the greater the im- provement in improved soil prac- tise. and the greater release of acreage and fertility for the pro- dllclluli of other crops, or for the rarrylng of a higher level of live- stock populaliorf.
A great measure of attention is being paid to grass silage_ and if grass silage is to become a con- slant factor in our feeding prac- tises extra provision and care must be enlisted in the develop ment of grass supplies. These sup plies under the best of manage ment will change from year to year, and possibly the incorporation oi i0l'll growing into the form pro- mrn :5 a practise that would merit lsioursble consideration. Corn is a heavy yielder and a safeguard even under mp-to-date grass land ltfmllitl.

but a tremendous amount of'mois- ture that should be going in to the lnvigoratlon of the crop. In a year of moisture shortage this is a particularly serious matter. The deductions from fertility, and the stealing of high priced fertilizer ingredients from other crops. are also matters of very great im- portance.
Experiments have been conduct- ed in connection with moisture and fertility diversion. and the lower- lng of crop yields, and the results oi such experiments have indic- ated an alarming lowering of all factors. The prevalence on many farms, and in many sections, of wild mustrd and wild radish in our grain crops must lnevita ly materially reduce yields.
Fortunately in the past few years the spraying for 2, 4-D in grain has become more prevalent, and the results have been outstand- ing. The practise should be very general for the cost oi sprays un- dcr the subsidy supplied by the Provincial Department oi Agricul- ture is not great. The subsidy is based on the acid content in the product and on this basis a oer- tsin rate per ounce is paid in the form of a subsidy.
In view oi the fact that 2.4-!) products have been reduced by some manufacturers by about 20% in price, the cost of the material when the subsidy from the De- partment is paid will bring the acreage expenditure down to a very low item to those who have difficulty with weeds oi the kind mentioned early preparation in the form of a. special boom for avail- able sprayers should be under- taken so that the spray can be applied at the proper time. A 24 foot boom will soon get over a field of grain. and it is surprising the measure of control that can be secured under the direction of a careful operator.
The total cost, in any event, is very little in comparison with the cost oi having these weeds deter- iorate the production and value of the grain crop. In all cases where purchases are made presen- tation for payment of the subsidy must come from the parties who actually use the material on their grains. A properly receipted bill of sale must be presented on which the brand name oi the material must be clearly indicated. Further- more the material must be used on the grain crops. No subsidy is paid if it is utilized for any other purpose. Prompt application for subsidy should be made as soon as the material is used. Pre- pare immediately and meet the chalenge oi the weed invasion with this simple control remedy.

The entire flock should be treat- ed with Phenothiaslne for Nodu- lar worms before they go out on pasture. It should be remembered that the entire flock must be treated st the same time. If this is not done the desired result will not be obtained. The flock can be treated twenty four hours before they are turned out on clean pas- ture.

Cattle men should make sure that all their young stock, that is two years and under. are vaccin- ated against Blackleg before they go out on pasture.
Blaokleg is a disease which is widespread and is soil born. The ravages of this disease can easily be prevented by having your young stock innoculated. 50. why not contact your District Veterinarian and have this Job performed.

Poultry raisers should be giv- ing serious consideration to the range on which this years chic- kens will be on. It is sound poul- try husbandry to have a range ro- tation each year. In other words. the birds should not be on the same ground two years running. This will minimize losses and in- crease production. Chicks which are brooded under abnormal conditions can cause ser- ious losses. It does not take very much of over-crowding, over-heat- ing, or chilling to cause a high death rate. Provide ample floor space for growing birds and make available an adequate number of feeders and water containers. Junior Club News

Horses and
The other day I was waiting for a friend near the entrance of Central Park when an unfamiliar scene drew my attention. A small family was starting out for a ride around the park in one of its attractions, a horse-drawn hack \vith a driver in regulation coach- man‘s costume.
Now ynung couples have al- ready tnken such rides, usually on warm moon-lit nights. But here, on a cool afiornonn were a father, I mother, and two sons, the three year old sitting between his parents in one seat; the seven year old in the seat with the driver. Obviously this little party was not interested in romance, hut the air of excitement and ad- venture proclaimed that this was something new and wonderful. Maybe I am wrong, but my guess is that a horse-drawn vehicle was an unknown quantity in the lives of the children and riding In one is first experience for the parents.
I-[ow rapidly the horse is pas- sing from our daily lives! Per- haps the great interest in harness racing is due to the yearning for the horse and buggy days. sails- fied in a measure by the sight of the toy-like buggy drawn by horses!
