For Better Flowing.

Some thoughtful men have called at
tention to the need Of more blowing
matches among farmers sons. In some
sections years ago such events enjoyed
a notable popularity, but during late
Years seem to have lost their sphere Of
influence In Canada some attention is
given to this plan Of contest but the
AGRICULTURAL press Of the dominion is
calling for more matches. Anything
that encourages better and more thor
ough blowing is to be commended. This
is the one great point for the contest,
demanding as it does the utmost de-
gree Of proficiency on the part OF
the winner to capture the coveted
honors.
There is a. need for better blowing.
Examine the fields Of thousands of far
mers and thils fact will be brought
forcibly to mind. Some charge that
much of the art of turning smooth,
even furrow is being lost in the en-
deayor of men to pillow large areas at
the expense of good workmanship. This
course is wrong. The first factor IN
fitting a field is we'll plowed, smooth
land without the balks that are the ear
marks of the man who is content 10
"cut and cover.
Generally speaking the time that is
saved on the blowing by the man whose
onlv aim seems to be to get over the
ground is more than lost when an at
tennt Is made to obliterate balks with
the harrow. This is certainly true II the
seed he'd is put into the same degree of
excellence.
Al nrese there is nothing more than
individual pride to encourage farmers
sons to excel in proficiency OF the plow-
ing. With the township blowing match
every inducement Is held out to the
youth who can strike the straightest

Why is the man who takes regular

the man whom you see going briskly
at his work or to his dinner? Be
cause he is nearly 100 per cent alive,
while the individual who carefully
avoids quick moves and exercise that
brings increased respiration, accelera-
ted circulation and some perspiration,
is carrying large percentage of dead
material in his body. The latter gives
him the sallow color, the stale and sus-
picious odor, in many cases the bad
temper. the sluggish mind. the back-up
appetite for dinner, and the all-gone
feeling when the day is done.
Get up and make some quick moves
every day, and several times a day, if
YOU have the courage. They will help
