The-Foundation Of _
Denmark’s Prosperity
This is a translation of an article
that appeared in a recent
issue of the ‘Politilren' newspaper,
published at Copenhagen. While
the msinpart of the article refers
to bsccrr production and trade, me
general sentiment and purpose that
runs through it seems to equally ap-
ply to the other major enterprises
and view-points 'of organised .Danish
agriculture. The article res/ds as
foilowsz- -
"It is corrunonly said of farmers
that they always have something to
complain about. This year they,
have had s good harvest, but grain
prices are lower. '
"It is true that the grain quota-
tions are low for_ the new crop, But
this is to the farmers' advantage.
since they are buyers rather than
sellers of grain. ~
"England, our principal bacon mar-
ket, has, during the past couple of
years arid in spite of much unem-
ployment, been able to absorb con-
siderably greater quantities of bacon
than the Danish famier thought pos-
sible. He used to think that a week-
ly supply of 60,000 pigs was all that
the Nigiish market could handle
from Denmark. We have, at times,
increased 'this figure by fiftyper cent
without causing a break in the mar-
ket. and this may- mean that 'when
employment conditions become more
nearly normal we may count on a
weekly British consumption of more
than 100,000 bacon hogs from Deri-
mark. If this be the case, our pur-
chases of foreign grown grain will in-
crease proportionately. Hence, Dan-
ish bseon producers will be interest-
ed in lower grain pric.
“During the period of adeclining
bacon market, following to some ex-
tent _.our`increasing production, the
Danish farmer_leamed the import-
ance of quality in his product. The
top' quality of bacon always found
a resdycmarket. This fact helped
the leading menwithin the co-oper-
-ltive bacon' industry in secure the
establishment 'of a national quota-
tion, including weight limits, for
bacon hogs, emphasised by a sharp
classification which gave the wide-

_ Farm Waste
(Mail and Empire)
A highly important modem devel-
Wment in industry has been the ef-
fort to find markets and uses for the
by-products of industrial processes.
This effort that chemists and men
trained in other branches of science
ave carried on, has been productive
of ,results of great economic value to
many industries. It has demonstrated
is utility, for example, in the indus-
tries that employ coal for the
manufacture of coke or gas and that
ave been enabled to obtain from
their raw material not only coke and
gas but s great variety of other mark-
tabie substances. Considering the
vast quantities of materials, such as
traw and cornstsiks, that now go in
waste on' farms in this and other coun-
ries, it is not surprising that science

in the prairie region to some profi-

the com belt experts have been look-
ing for a use for the great quantities
of com stalks and husks that now go
to waste each year. 'A year or more
B80 it was reported that a. process oi
making paper and other substances
with a cellulose base had been devel-
oped by chemists in Europe and was
to be applied in large industries soon
to be established in Nebraska and
other states. ‘I'his report, no doubt,
was gratifying to farmers who now de-
rive no profit from the comsialks and
husks that remain on theirhands af-
ter each year's harvest. Le.as__grat_ify-

statement of an expert from the Iowa
Agricultural college who appeared the
other day before the United States
senate committee on agriculture. This
expert asserted that paper' could not
be made at presentfrom ecrristalxs
'and other farm wastes. unless those
materials were blended with wood
.pulp He maintained that on the
whole. in the present stage of devel-
opment, paper made from farm wast-
es could not advantageously enter the
com{ne'r'cia-l field because of the high
cost of the whol-csale manufacture of
such paper. At the some time, he did
offer the opinion, which is of interest
to farmers and to the paper manufac-
turing industry, that possibly, through
further study, a profitable papir
might eventually be made from farm
wastes. Certainly, a method of utiliz-
ing the _materials that now ‘go to
waste on farms intliis' and other coun-
tries would be of great advantage to
the farmers. _ .

In-spite of the general decrease in

shipped B50 hogs. In January 1929,
the volums was 1.155, with this
start there is good promise that the
1920 volums of 18,950 hogs will be
exceeded this year. '

Many swine growers have their
sows fi-rrowing this ~.year in .lan-
uary and February. The wisdom of
this policy will be appreciated when
the higher prices are received next
July and August. Prices were 4 cents
higher at August than they were
in and November. To receive
the highest price ths swine growers
should have their hogs ready for

some clubs are arranging to'make

During Farmers’ Week the Island
sheep and swine growers will have

tevenson discuss internal parasites
in. sheep and swne. Dr . Stevenson
is -ths best authority in Canada. on
this question. It is well known that
our sheep, in particular, ‘are badly
infested with many different kind
of» worms. The stunted lambs are
cvidsncg of this infestation. A visit
to a packing plant where Island
lambs are being slaughtered will
convince the most skeptical that,
thousands of dollars are lost an-I
nually by Island farmers due to in-
ternal parasites in our sheep.

GOOD SEED IMPORTANT
While the cost of flower or vege-
table seed is relatively unimportant
and certainly urs' most inexpensive
factor in gardening, one’.s whole sea-
son’s work depends absolutely on the
quality of the seed used. If poor,
cheap stock is purchssgd, results are
bound to be disappointing and there
is usually but one opportunity in the
whole year to plant. The cost of
the land, fertilizer, labor and equip-
ment will all be lost,” as well as the
pleasure of growing beautiful flowers
and high-quality vegetables, if the
foundation of all of this, which is
good seed, is lacking. In this coun-
try, where the climate is usually con-
sidered rigorous, it is essential to get
suitable seeds and plants. A certain
rose or a very fine bean, for instance,
may give wonderful results down in
Kentucky where the climate is balmy,
or in England where there is little
trouble with frost, but that same rose
or bean, if planted here, is sure to
prove a disappointment. Because
oi' this fact, for satisfactory results.
it is best to obtain _supplies from
those sources which cater to Canad-
ian gardeners.
Diiiiiif- In many cases as much as a
quart of round worms was found in
each hog. Those unthrifty hogs, and
those which die for no accountable
reason, are no doubt, hosts for
wo_rm infestations. These conditions
can be overcome by proper treat-
ment and therefore every inf/crested
farmer should hear Dr. Stevenson
during Farrnem Week.
Any farmer who suspects that
his sheep or swine are infested with
worms should write the Sheep and
swine promoter, Dominion Live
Stock Branch, Box 203 Charlet-
tetown, who will give every assis-
tance possible,-even to assist with
treatment.
At least 25 per cent of our swine
herds and 50 per cent of our flocks
are being injured by internal para-
sites, If this condition is allowed to
continue it will mean that many
the -past week, to watch a lot of _
hogs being slaughtered at our local
farmers will be forced to disperse
their flocks.

to be re-seeded, weeds dug out. a rol-

evenly and strongly, particularly dur- i

these conditions, loosen the soil in
the bare spots and sow thickly with
a good grade of lawn seed. If the
