(By a Scottish Expert) The recent inclement weather hns made many small poultry- ketipers chary of pushing on with the hatching of their chickens. Many are of the opinion that the earlier hatched chickens, are more difficult to rear than the later ones, hatched when weather conditions are much improved. It is. however, “OW generally admitted that Febru- “Y find March-hatched Cl'llCk(‘I‘i5 are even easier to rear than those hatched in the later months, On the balance being made up it will be found that the earlier chick- ens are the best investment. Of course, everything depends on Lhc management. They must have the best of feeding, and the early chicks must be protected from severe winds and heavy rain show- ers. just as the later ones must be provided with shade from the too hot rays of the sun. very warm weather retards the growth even more than continued spells of cold. wet weather, mainly because they do not feel inclined to eat so much. Feeding Food and fresh water are all im- portant. Those who are unable to attend to their chickens constantly. owing. perhaps. to being away on other work. will find the dry mash system of feeding very convenient It is a great labor-saving device, but it does not give the best growth. Where the chicks have to be fed on the dry mash system, every en- deavour should be made to give them a wet mash two or three times a week. Many will find that they can do so at the week-ends. The chickens will appreciate this change and benefit greatly. The chicks will require some seeds also, This can be mainly finely kibbied groats. wheat, and maize, whch can be increased in size as the chickens grow. The seed mix- ture should be scattered in litter to encourage the chickens to scratch. This must not be overdone, as they soon become indolent if they get too much food at a time. The grain will become tainted and will not tempt the appetite. The same ap- plies to the dry mash. and it shou‘d be closed down periodicary in order to maintain the interest of the chicks in it. "Little But Often" These grain feeds should be given "little but often." The crop in a young chicken is. of coiirse, small. and they must not be alloxvccl to gorge. or complications will set in. If they feed often there is no strain put on the crop. and the gizzard is kept constantly in action. To nssist rapid growth. scraps of flirielv minced meat of fish may 139 Ki‘/Fit These will be picked up readily and will do the birds a lot of good. The water dishes must be kept scrupulously clean. and must be protected so that the chicks cannot scratch the litter into them. This latter may be only too often the case, so that the drinking vessels get choked pp. and the birds are unable to get an adequate supply of water. Green Food Chickens revel in a daily supply of green food. In the early Sl2fllZ€‘S. the green food has to be chopped very finely. Lettuce, cress. dande- iions, young cabbage. 43.-c.. should be chopped up. onions. tops and bulbs. should be minced up very finely: and it will be found that they are eaten with great relish. Greens have also a decided medi- cinal value. and they have a won- derful effect on the blood S',I‘€l\!'1. Avoid all cheap feeds. They can never be good. and seldom give decent results. owing to trade com- petition much inferior food is foist- ed on the chicken rearer at this season of the .VEB1'~ THE llllllliilllllll (Natural history notes contributed by the Pioneer Jack Miner League) one of the most beautiful birds that visit our Island during the spring and summer months is the woodcock. He stays with us fill the first liezivy fr-cst in October when he gathers with more of his kind and seeks a warnicr clime. He is a regular visitor to many parts of our laiicl, yet ninny people fail to observe him. Easy of identification with his long bill. ey:s high in his head. and his brown. yellow and dead leaf coloring, which harmon- izcs so well with the ground on which he rests. The woodcock re- mains quiet during the day and feeds generally by night coming down to the black-mud swamps from the wooded knolls of birch and poplar where he smut the day. Late in the autumn he may be found in the alder and spruce coverzs during the day. When the woodcock is considered it is gener- ally in the role of a game bird. some one has well described him as the gamlest game bird in North America and be well clcserves the nnm.e He is so retiring in his hab- its, and so seldom stirs abroad through the day, that the ordin- ary observer does not often come in contact with him. If you wish to observe him you must often- times penetrate dense cover, es- pecially in the autumn. and for this work a dog is almost is neces- sity. for he will let you almost step on him before he rises on whist- ling wings, to seek better cover. Tiiei-e me those among our lov- ers of nature who contend that the woodcock should be placed on the I)l'0lL‘C‘t3(l not at all t.mes, and .‘vllOlll(‘l not be classed as a game bird. Thcy say he is too beautiful to be shot and too small to 3'2 of value as a table bird. He sure is beautiful in his adult plumage and as it table-bird what lie lacks in quantltiv he sure makes up in qiiriliiv. With such a decrease in our geese and hrant and many of our ducks, wlnt would the sports- man lmvc left if he were struck from the list. indeed it looks as if our main list of game birds on our Island will be snipe. woodcock and blark rlu . but the black duck cannot his own without more protection. while the Wilson snipe and wcozicock can well take care of thcnisclves if given an even break.

Nowadays, the general neglect of pasture lands has been rectified. and within the past few years efficient and hi'ghly-sys- temlzed research has done much to add to human knowledge in the creation, management. and ferti- llzatlon of grasslands with con. current profit to the pastoralist * Pasture is the most important : agricultural crop, and as such re- quires at least as much care as is bestowed on the other commonly i grown field crops. In Canada, pas. I ture land occupies the largest area of any single crop and its care and l culture are enzazing the attention . of all the v.'ii'ioiis a_.,.i rural authorities, and of the farmers l themselves. According to the Dcm- l inion census of 1931, nearly 6.000.- l 000 acres of ratural pasturage in Eastern Canada provided slimmer lfeed for thousands of llvestcck In 3 addition about 7.000.000 acres of 1 improved pastures were being graz- j ed Thus. 24-4 per cent of all farm I land in Eastern Canada during the ‘ summer months of 1931 supplied I l l f) E the feed which produced mutton. Wool. beef. milk and other proudcls of the livestock industry. Although the three Prairie Pro- ; vinces have become one of the ‘ greatest wheat producing areas of , the world. they still have about i 37.000000 acres of ranize or pasture land supporting many hard; of cm. tie. In British Columbia over l,- 1 250,000 acres are devoted to pas- ture. making for all Canada a total of over 51.000900 acres, or 31 pgr cent of the area of all occupied lands in the Dominion. Nearly six times as much land is devoted to pasture as to hay. and more than twice as many acres are used for pasture than for the growing of wheat In Eastern Canada and in British Columbia where rainfall is abund- ant. it is now recognized that pas- ture carrvlng one animal to every four or five acres is not doing its t f l t night, but little can be done to benefit them in this direction. Sportsmen account for few of these birds in our land. but they have one very real enemy, the bcmeless cat, yes. and many times the cat with a home. Some two years ago the writer visited a home which was in the vicinity of good woodcock cover. The old cat and two half-grown kittens were enjoying themselves at the front door. No wonder they felt l1aplJY- Nearby were the remains of their breakfast, the wings of two beautiful woodcock. As the _bird is a ground dweller. scarcely ever known to alight on a tree. he becomes an easy prey to any prowling cat, and more so as he is such a stupid bird at dusk and dawn, the time when the cat is So if all sportsmen and conservationists wish to pro- tect the wocdcock just go out and shoot the old grey cat that roams the woods and if he be your own pet cat, and you do not wish to kill him put him in a wire pen for the nesting season at least and you will save many birds as we believe more woodcock are killed by him than by all the birds of prey and power lines combined.

' Emulsion Spray Protects Onion 'jed= The onion maggot is the most; serious enemy of onions in Caiiadafli lit is distributed throughout Can- ada and attacks onion plants only.‘ About the end of May the mcggui. flies commence laying their eggs in the soil at the base of the tiny on- ion seedlings and the conlrol meas- urs consist of at least four spray- lngs of an oil emulsion. The first spray should be applied as soon as. the earliest apple blooms appear.‘ with subsequent sprays every week. , The whole surface of the ground. should be covered as well as the tiny plants. A light to medium lubricating oil should be usel for the spray and may be obtained from any of the oil companes or service stations. The following is the method of preparing the spray: make a 831- lon of Bordeaux mixture by first dissolving two ounces of bluestone in a gallon of wa'.er and then add- ing two ounces of hydrated lime to the solution. Stir and pour into a. pail containing a gallon of the 01L By means of a bucket pump ‘or other ema‘l sprayer. Dump the 131' um back upon itself until a perfest emulsion of the oil and Bordeaux is secured. This creation should take about five minutes and the mixture may be tested by pourinz a small quantity into water. vvhen no droplets of oil are found on the surface of the water the mix- ture is ready for use. Should free oil be present. agitate the mixture until the oil is thoroughly emulsi- fied. Whcn this has been accom- plished. mlx the two gal‘ons with 38 gallons of soft water.
