We have at length come almost of classification: the Odonata or the Orders. The Dragon-flies are an old family and their fossil re- in ancient geological strata. Their modern representatives are smaller, but their habits are much the san-ic; they haunt swampy places and ‘prey on smaller flies. The Dragon flics proper have arc held horizontally in repose. The peyes which are exceedingly largc and beautiful, are not stalked. They are large flies. the body being in the neighborhood of 50 millimet- N-s in length. The smaller Odonata. are called Damoel flies. Their hind wings re- semble the fore wings, and in re- are constricted at the base and. consequently appear as if stalkedi Both groups are graceful and expert‘ fliers, going "into reverse" as easily. as they fly forward. The life history of the Odonata is» a most curious one. The eggs are deposited on stems of water-plants. or on wood work lust below the surface of the water. when they hatch, the resulting larvae and ‘nymphs an entirely aquatic; fsro~l citrus inhabitants of ponds and. rivers, they have extensile mouth-l parts that can suddenly reach for-‘ ,ly winning a place as a social cen- Itre, too. This is as it should be, for still is), laid the blame on the teacher. To have several of these defectives amongst the children at the Orphanage is an ordeal which few teachers with experience would care lo fart. Children, too, are highly lmiillLlVE, and readily take up the actions and languages of their schoolmates, no matter how eccentric; and so the teacherss ef- forts to instil the rudiments of cor- rect behaviour are nullified by the presence of these unfortunates. This is a serious problem to solve. but for the sake of the normally- mirided children it must be faced and with as little delay as may be. The Orphanage itself, I note, is progressing splendidly under the care and attentive supervision of the popular Matron. It is evident- the "children will not feel themselves "cut off from the world” and will, their rightful places in society with In the old days, now happily past.| fuse to give a donation to the Or- phanage on the ground that the children there had care, privileges and equipment to which their own children were strangers. Well, the deeper anything is sunk the strong- er must be the "pry." Many of the children come from homes which have been wrecked i from one cause 0r other, and it requires ideal conditions in their all-too- brief formative years, to turn them into good citizens, and a credit to our little Province. An incident which I noted last summer, will help to make the pub- lic recognize the value of this In- stitution. I was present when two former wards of the Orphanage drove some miles, in their own car, to visit their old teacher. They were a married couple and had their children with them, and from a kindly sentiment had named one of them "after" the teacher, as the liniglish would say. When I looked at the bright and happy faces of the group I realized that here was a tangible pIOOi of the good work that the Orphanage has ac- complished in the past, and a happy omen for the future.

It is sad that within the past six or seven years the aver- age production of‘ milk per cow has been increased by about 750 pounds. As a result there is an over-supply of milk in the flud milk market to the extent of about 20 per cent in winter and 40 per cent in summer. Handling this over-supply of fluid milk has caused some difficulty and more cheese factories. particularly in the north of Elngland, as well as more cfeameries, are bang estab- llshed. "Milk used for cheesemaking in British cheese factories 0011185 with- ‘n the scorpe of the lViilk Marketing Board. but milk manufactured into cheese on farms does not. Conse- quently there has been a. consider- able diversion of milk from the manufacture of cheese on fam-is to the milk Marketing Board. In order to encourage diversion of mlk to the manufacture of cheese, the British Government now proposes loaning to the Board about 7,500,000 for the pimpose cf stabifzlng from now until March 31. 1935, milk for cheesemakng at 5d (10 cents) per gallon in summer and 6d (l2 cents) D91‘ gallon in winter. It is under- stood that the British Government will loan a. further ammmt of money in order to stabilize prices of milk for cheesemaking art the some levels during the year 1936. If by that time, the value of milk for cheesemaking has reached a level somewhat above the stabilized val- ues mentioned a-bove, the Bonrdistp undertake repayment 0d.’ the loan, but if the cheese market has not by that time advanced sufficiently to raise the value of milk for cheese- maklng to the specified level, the loan is not to be repaid and becomes a direct subsidy. “Quantities of butter and cheese reaching the United Kingdom are greater than during the previous year. and while supplies, both dc- mestic and imported, remain 55 great as at present, it is difficult to $98 how the market over there can make my very appreciable arty-an. during his recent visit, carefully revised the manuscript (for which he is hereby thanked) and furn- ished many helpful suggestions, and also a number of notes on Nova Scotlan birds which are also found here, It is unlikely that the revis- ed list is complete in every respect, but it ls a great advance in our knowledge o! the Island birds and deserves to be placed on perman- ent record.

This fact is emphasized by the experiments conducted on the Dominion EX- perifnen-tal- Fnmis. Harvested at the riglht time and properly cured. e- palataible and highly nutflitoils feed is assured, but if cutting is delayed until] the seed is formed. there is a. serious loss in digestibility and feeding value. In spite of the fact that hay in Eastern Canada mp1?- sents a. large proportion of the annual value of all field crops, the hay crop is neglected to a greater extent than any other. Much of the hay crop consists of a. mixture of clover and tifncthy. Since clover usually predominates in the first crop year, the hay shmlld be cut wihen the clover is needy. This is in the eerily bloom stage. Early cutting of the clover promotes a better second growth and gives a better seed crop. In the second crop yeor, cutting should be- gin at the best stage for timothy. This is when ‘the plants are fully headed and not later than full bloom. When timothy is harvested before blooming. there is sufficient digestible proetin for cows pm- ducing eight to ten pounds of milk. wheneas if the hay is not cut until the seed is formed it is barely good enough to supply a malnteance ration. from the enemy's book, was Pam-de- berg possible.

Seed Registration Organization The organization cf seed 0WD in‘ specter-i and of the registration of seed crops from gencnaticn Y0 gell- eration was undertaken and carried out until 1905 as a function of the Dominion Department of AgYicl-ll‘ burg, The registrat on of plants 91'0- pagating stock was new then, at least in Canada; but as soon as the prcgess of organizing had led to the establishment of basic principles. and the Omiadan seed Growers’ Association was effectively con- stituted. and the registration 0f seed craps and the esmblifihmefit 0f standards for that. purpose became the exclusive duty and responsibz- lit/y of that associatcn. The Dom- inian Department of Agriculture. Mr. Gl-I. Clarke, Dominion Seed Ccmmssioner, points out, continued to provide the service of seed crop inspection; and the report oi.’ the inspector, showing a detailed an- alyss of the seed crop on the form prescribed by the Seed Growers’ Association, was the principal guide to the executive thereof in. its de- termination as to whether or not the seed crop was eligible for regis- tration. The Association has always been at liberty to appoint or des- ignate inspectors of seed crops other than those who have been availablu from the Department of Agricul- ture. It is largely because inspec- tors employed by the Dominion Seed Branch have been in a position to do work 1n conjunction with num- erous other duties at substantially lower cost to the grower than could be made possible by other inspect- .,crs that the work of secd crop in- spcction has for many years been done mainly by them.

First, the educational advantages would be vastly increased because breeder may went e. black, and why all types have a distinct, place in the different branches of this in- dustry. Secondly, the tendency of the fox erally would be further emphasized. More show foxes would find their way into ranches all over tile Do- minion cf Canada. and through- Also more herds would receive the ben- class animals. Even a. few fine, pre- potent foxes spread about the country bring an infusion of better blood that results in more valuable pelts. Thirdly. there would certainly be 1 more sales for the exhibitor. If it were advertised and known that a large number of foxes of real class’ 3 were actually going to be dispgged of. many buyers would wait for the event. and would bring their herd cash to the shows with them. They would do this. as one prominent fox mm pointed out, because they would know exactly whet they were buying. They wouldn't have to re- ly on somebody’: word, on score cards or on luck.
