THE FEEDING OF CATTLE,

Canadian experiments in the fatten.
ing of steers are recorded. At the
Brandon station the steers were fed
for 110 days, silage and chopped grain
being given in addition to the straw.
During the last 55 days flaxseed was
also fed. They were purchased at 3
cents and sold for 485 cents per
pound. The average daily gain per
head of lot l. fed on wheat straw. was
l lb., l o., the profits ON the two lots
being SPOIL and $19.64. respectively.
Barley. oat and wheat straw and ma
tive bronze grass hay, when fed in
addition to silage and meal were com.
pared with five lots of steers at the
Indian Head station The lots fed on
straw contained four animals, and
those fed on hay two animals each.
In four months the gain per steer on
the different rations was 126.25, 81 sc,

NEST EGG PHILOSOPHY.

1t is not merely superstition that
makes the farmers wife leave nest
egg in tbs nest, nor mere whim of
the old hen that causes her to be more
likely to lay an egg where she finds
one already. 1t is only the survival Of
a habit founded on good reasons-an
inherited instinct In the wild state
it would be a foolish hen that, having
had her eggs eaten by a fox. would
keep right on laying in the same place.
thus keeping the fox in eggs all sum-
mer. Perhaps if the fox had been as
sly as he is said to be he would have
left nest gg, too, and she might not
have noticed, for, as one nest egg
seernr to satisfy hen, perhaps she
can only count one. The hens that
did not hr,t a new nest when they
found their eggs were all gone failed
to perpetuate themselves they were
not fit, and all nature is founded on
the great law Of ''the survival Of the
fittest." The wise hen straightway
sough. new and safer place in
which to lay her eggs. So make some
nests of clean soft hay, where the
hens can hide, and put in nest egg.
and see II you do not find another be-
side it.
Two men will each buy 4 harvester

other is in good order. These ma
chimes have been put to about the
same use, but not the same care and
management 1t is barely possible

FARM NOTES.

The first principle of successful
farming is to enrich the SOIL"
Don't put poor fence post in a
permanent fence
Keep a watch on the March winds
and learn just where a windbreak of
evergreens should be planted.
Yes, keep pig manure as well as
COW manure away from potatoes or
the strawberry patch, but it has
always proved a good thing on the
cabbage patch for me.
Some farmers SOW clover seed
twice, half early and half late, to in.
sure stand; but it is a question
whether it is not wiser to SOW it all
verX early. In this way the writer
has not failed of a good stand in
tw enty-one years
More gullies on the steep places
this spring than usual. Begin at the
lower end and pile full of brush,
evergreen is best with tops up hill.
A few stones scattered along help
hold it until the soil fills in solid.
Careful watching will probably
show that the snow melts on land
that is thoroughly drained a week or
ten days earlier than on the adjoining
land of the same character that is not
drained. How much is that week
or ten days at the beginning of the
season worth to the thrifty, always
ready, go-ahead farmer?

Rich, loamy land does not require

In some cases liquid manure can be
used to ad--~ntage in securing a bet
ter growth of plants. In using, care
must be taken not to have it too
strong. In applying stir the soil well
around the plant and then apply the
manure much the same as watering,
but taking care not to allow any to
get on the foliage or stems of the
plants. A good way to make it is to
fill an old barrel one-third full of ma
nure and then fill up with water. Let
stand day or two, stirring occasion
ally. Pour off the water and then
weaken as desired. 1t is better to ap-
ply two or three times, two Or three
days apart than to give the same
amount in single application. When
quick results are desired, LIQUID ma.
nuring may be done to advantage.
