"Where the cow is kept and cared for, civilization advances, lands grow richer, homes grow better and debts grow fewer." The above is an extract from the preface of a book entitled "The Cow, the Mother of Prosperity," copies of which are being distributed by the Bank of Montreal. This book is probably the best popular treatise on dairy farming which lias ever been published < It has been written with a view not only to guiding the farmer in the sel- ection and breeding the best types of dairy cows but also to guiding him in the care 'and feeding of dairy cows in very condition of climate and soil throughout the continent of North America. The author, Mr. Ralph A. Hayne, of the Agricultural Exten- sion Department, International Harv- ester Company, in his foreward, de- scribes th cow as one of the greatest blessings to the human race. "No nation or people," he says, "has be- come highly civilized without her. She produces the best human food on earth. She makes this health-build- ing, strength-giving food from grass and coarse plants. Without her ag- riculture is not permanent or prosper- ous, people are not healthy or happy. Wherever the cow has taken her rightful place, and man has done his part, we find farms furnishing an in- come every week of the year. We find homes with conveniences. We find intelligent, thrifty 4 debt-free people with minds and hearts alert from steady employment. We find a good citizenship, a good agriculture Truly, the cow is the mother of pros- perity." He proceeds to describe typical localities to which the cow would bring prosperity. Then he tells how to select right kind of cows, describ- ing in detail the good and bad points of cows from head to tail. The breeding, care and feding of cows, the best kind of feed in various localities, the construction of barns, the making of silage, the testing of cows and their milk, methods of milking and the type and care of dairy utensils, the best methods of marketing milk, the care of calves, either for rearing or for production of veal the use of ma- nure, the best breeds for varying conditions and the treatment of dis- eases, are all dealt with fully and in plain language that anyone can un- derstand. A valuable feature of the book is the fact that every point dealt with is illustrated by photographs specially taken for the purpose or by diagrams. Over 250 photographs are reproduced. The Bank of Montreal is doing a splendid work for faniers by having a special edition of many thousands of this valuable book printed for free distribution throughout farming dis- tricts in Canada. We understand that the demand fur the book has ex- ceeded all expectations, but that a reserve supply has been secured, so that a limited number is still avail- able free of cost. Application for the book should be made to the local branch of the Bank of Montreal. Contributed. Small Advertisements Truck For Rent 1H ton truck for rent. G. B Welton, Flesherton.

A large crowd was present and the proceeds amounted to over $136. , A concert was given at the close of the supper by local talent.
