The report said the pack of canâ€" ning &as has been heavy in Westâ€" ern tario with acreage yields above average. Eastern districts had one of the shortest pea packs in their history, with few plants operating over 14â€"15 days. _ An estimate of the damage in Essexâ€"Kent counties due to the storm of June 16â€"17 showed the onion crop to have suffered most with 39 per cent Qéothe total acreâ€" age there lost. About 3,000 acres of processing tomatoes, 300 acres of potatoes and 30 acres of spinach were also destroyed, but the reâ€" port said damage was less than first expected and "present recovery is cxcellent."

This will require six to eight applications at 10 day inler-l vals DDT should not be used in the old copperâ€"lime dust because the lime in this combination greatly reduces the toxicity of the poison.

Spring rye cut in the early dough stage has {iven good results. Some question has arisen as to wheat hay being too m'onf a feed for cattle, but no bad results have been found and it is considered one of the best feeds for wintering. It is important, says the Station, that plans should be made now to conâ€" serve suitable roughages for winâ€" ter feeding from every possible _ In the case of a dairy cow, or where the beef cow is also fed for the farm milk supply, a satisfacâ€" tory ration is two pounds of dry roughage for every 100 pounds of the animal‘s live weight, and conâ€" centrates at the rate of one pound for every three to four pounds of milk produced. Alfalfa h.{ and clover hay fit in very well with the cereal grains and prairie h:fy. and grain hays are more satisfactory with higher protein foods such as bran and oilcake. At the Dominion Experimental Station, Swift Current, Sask., inâ€" tensive investigations have been made into the winter feeding of ‘live stock. With prospects of a {limited supply of roughage this coming winter many farmers are 'wondering what amount of feed will be necessary to maintain beef [cattle through the winter. The investigations of the Station on winter feeding have provided the following information: To }maintain beef cattle in normal thrifty growing condition, it reâ€" quires from eight to ten pounds of hay per day for a calf; 12 to 14 pounds for a yearling and 16 to 18 pounds for a mature cow or a twoâ€" year old. The feeding period, if no pasture is available, varies from 125 to 150 days, depending on winâ€" ter conditions ‘On the foregoing basis, it is a simple matter to estiâ€" mate the supply of hay required. If the cattle are in poor condition to enter the winter the amounts fed shguld_ be increased accordingly.

At Sardi‘s threatrical restaurant there‘s a trend which demonstrates tipping is truly a weird social pheâ€" nomenon. Summer patrons arrivâ€" ing without hats tip the hatâ€"check girl liberally anyway. But things aren‘t rough all over In many high class hostelrics the patrons keep laying it on the line at wartime rates. The passing of the peak in tipâ€" ping also grieves the bootblacks. And the barbers are taking it on the chin while taking it off the top. "Prices go up, tips go down," said a union official. It was stated by officials of hotel and restaurant employees unions that persors who pay more for meuls than during the war are taking out their resentment on waiâ€" ters by tipping less. One union offiâ€" cial estimated a 20 per cent decline in tipping in middleâ€"class restaurâ€" Barkeeps who jovially give you o drink "on the house" are merely cr.couraging tips, said a spokesman for the bartenders union. To disâ€" courage the free drink practice, the bartenders have been granted wage increases. In many midtown hotels bellhops lugubriously lamented the passing uf the wartime high tip. One charâ€" actcrized todavy‘s tippers as a paâ€" rade of dimes.
