It is no uncommon thing for a deer to indulge in a foot race alongside the railway tracks with the trains. We will be running our heating apparatus for some weeks yet, but already ^t is claimed that jMiicient? people should arrange for the early jretting in of a supply for next win- ter. To us it would seem mo|pe seemly to have it settled why compe- tition should be eliminated in the supply of this great necessity of life. In other words, why over eight years after the war ceased, the public should continue to pay war prices for fuel? NO PLACE LIKE HOME This new ballad by Walt Mason the well kown American writer will be appreciated. To add a local touch to the composition we have substituted I word in the last line. "Mid pleasures and palaces though I may wend, I find the home mer- *;hant a much valued friend. The mail order catalogue wooes me in vain, for *o buy without seeing gives nie a pain. The home mrcHant credits till pay day arrives; he knows all the whims of his friends and their wives. His overalls wear like the buckskin of old, his buttons ain't brass if he patches of gr6y scaly crust Increase. Yearlings and Oatves Are Most ceptlble, particularly so If crowded together In warm stables where the organism Is present on walls or man- gers. The disease appears around the ears, eyes, neck, lips and tall- head, the parts that in Itchy animal can rub on an Infected object most easily. The period of Incubation for this parasite varl'jjs from seven to thirty days. Small r.odules covered with asbestos-like crust first appear, growing Into areas several Inches In diameter. These are f^enerally thick- er on dark than on light skin. Con- siderable Irritation develops, causing the animal to rub the encrusted area aiding Inflammation with thickening and cracks. If the crust Is removed a raw bleeding surface Is exposed. Treatment Suggesteil. As soon as rlngwcm Is detected an effort should be ms^e to Isolate the affected animals cid to treat Winter By«i. The rye erjp In OBUrio ti grows on approximately 160.000 acres. It Is not an important crop when com- pared with (at* and wheat on an acreage basis. Vhe Increase in acre- age as a gra!n crop has been very slow, due to the difflculty generally experienced la harvesting a heavy trop. At th > Ontario Agricultural Collcgo the v:;rlety known as Peikus has headed the list tor productive- ness. The average yield per acre per annum of the Petkus winter rye sur- piiKsed the n ^xt highest variety by four bushels in a seven years' test. â€" Ui'pt. of Ext( .ision. O. A. C, Guclph.

Milk Is such a perishable fo^d that nieasurrs should be taken to preserve It In good condition for at least 36 to 48 hours after it Is drawn from tho cow. Pasteurization, which in- cludes cooling and holding at a rea- sonably low temperature, preferably below 00° V. are tlie two things ne- cessary and practicable at reasonable coat. Where milk is held at 60° to 70° v., which is ordinary house tem- peral'ire, the Dealers' raw milk will not remain sweet for more than 12 hour.?, whereas if pasteurized it will Ukel/ be quite Qt for table use up to 2 4 or 30 hours holding. If kdpt at 00° F. the pasteurized milk will remain In good condition for 48 hours or longer. â€" Prof. H. H. Dean, Daiiy Dept., O. A. College. It la highly Important, that the soli be given a rest, oats following oats, or corn following corn is not good farming, it is soil raining, if the soil is rich the evil day will be de- layed, but the time will surely come when those who do n&l give the soil I a chance must pay the price and suf- j fer In reduced crcps, plant diseases, ; Insect injury, and weeds. I No one rotation is the best under all conditions, but to all accepted crop rotations, certain principles can I be applied, so that each particular I farm can be fitted with a definite plan suited to its pecullaritie.«.

Mr. Rowley Fermanagh, in * • Elliott, M.P., for the Parliament of Ireland (north), who is now in Can- ada and the United States, investi- gating the question of prohibition as carried out in the whole or in pai^, says he has seen more drunkenness in a village of 300 inhabitants in Ireland on a Saturday afternoon, than he has seen on this side of the Atlantic in two months. He consid- ers that the prohibitory enactment in the '?nited States and Canada has been fairly well carried out, though inuclk remains to be done to produce ideal conditions. Before he came here he had heard much talk about hip flasks and the indulging in them by high Jthool girls and boys, but' he had found that there was no foundation in fact for the report that the youth of thi.s continent were given to, Buch practises.

This dl.-oasa The number of eggs set to get a mature pullet is possibly the most inefllcient part of the poultry busi- ness.
