This is accomplished by the hydrochloric acid of the stomach coming in contact with the boll! thereby breakingit down from a. solid ‘substance into a jolly-like mass. which is easily assimilated into the system immediately It en- ters the small intestine. To get the best possible results the bone should be ground as fine as possible; first through the bone grinder then through the meat grinder until the bone ls reduced to the consistency of thick cream. Ground green bone possesses several important elements, all es- sential to the well being of the animal. First of all it contains the two minerals calcium and phos- phorus. a. deficiency of either one of these minerals will produce (l) rickets or softening of the-bones in growing pups, (2) acidosis in thefadillt fox. Rlckots may be demonstrated by crooked legs, large joints. short legs and general unthriftiness.

Anyhow it is worth mulling over in your mind. Mr. rbxman. If you do not feel like feeding the quantit that ha does-and I must say we have not gone quite that far ourselves- yet it would be well to incorporate at least 5% of ground green bone in your ration.

It may surprise them to learn that the protefns- of- ocean fish are equal to the-proteins of ‘meat. They must, however, secure the proper kind of ocean fish. ‘It ‘must be low in fat and oorltainnot only the flesh and‘ bones but the viscera (entrails). Of all the ocean varieties on the market Whiting is the most out- standing, especially when it in- eludes the "viscera.

As meats continue to increase in price and as the fur funnel-s begin to realize the value of fish versus meat, they will in all probability feed fish, providing they can get the right kind exclusive of meat. Many cf the meats they are now feeding are high in add, whereas fish are low in comparison. They will also feed more ocean fish ks- cuuse of the organic iodine and vitamins A, D and G and ocean minerals which. are contained in fish to, a far greater extent than in meat. _ speakln of the use. of fish, I _ with lvm John Roper yesterday after he had finished his day's work of. marking our foxes, and he stated that he fed about 26% of fish to ills foxei, Rrindlng it up bones and all in with the meat. This is the procedure adopt- ed in Western Canada by a great many ranches and they also have had excellent success, with it. If you have a cheap-source of supply and the right kind of fish avail- able itwould loom good business to feed it. Do not forget the fox breeders’ picnic which takes place on the shore fann of Robert Baker. North Bodeque, Tuesday, A usi: 13th. The program starts at l. 0 sharp and will consist of addresses, demon- strations, practical feeding, talks and other features. Entertainment for young and old will be provided. Bring a. basket lunch.

No doubt all the more progressive fox breeders will be present because the object is to link them closely together and make every man's welfare the oth- er man's thought. One for all and all for one.

' NEW OWCIIIDS I am told that Mr. Blanchard, Architect, of this city, has found growing at Fortune Bridge, that much-sought Orchid, Oypripedlum hirsutum mill, the "Showy Lady's- Slipper." I have never yet hap- pened to some acres this Orchid. and did not know whether it was still to be found on the Island. It must be ‘rare. This Pflfilculll’ IN‘ cles has two Latin synonyms, viz: C. reginae and C. speotabilc. Mac- Bwairrs list describes it under the latter name. Mr. Blanchard has also found an- lthor orchid. Habenarla hyperborea (L) 33m, which has been given in the books, the rather clumsy popu- lu- name “Tall leafy Green ‘Orch- is." This ls new to our Island flora, and I shall be glad to have either a. fresh or mounted specimen for ex- amination. The initials after the specific name ‘indicate that Lin- rweus, the great Swedish botanist first described the plant as Orchls hyperborea, and that Robert Brown a Britton, transferred it to the genus Habenaria. while retaining the specific name as before.

One reason for cutting ewes, that is Often overlooked, i: because they do not have a. 500d supply of milk for their lambs. There is often a great diflereflce in the amount of milk that ewes furnish to their young, and the thriftiness of the lambs will be the guide in this matter. Ewes that do not raise their lambs well should be culled out at once, as they are un- profitable.
