tests showing that from nine to fifty per cent increases have been made by better feeding and care.
 The answer, of course, depends a great deal on previous feeding and care. but it is not an important ques- tion.
 The important thing is that we know positively that by better feeding and care better breeding and selection the production can be increased very largely and very profitably. It doesn't matter what form of effort gets the credit, the result is what we want.

MILK ONLY WITH DRY HANDS
Practice Of Wettins Hands Is Filthy Habit and Liable to Cause Cows
 Yeats to Chap.

Mixers should be allowed to mill only with dry hands. The practice oi wetting the hands with milk is filthy habit and is liable to cause the COWS teats to chap in the winter time.
 Milking should be done quickly and thoroughly. with no violent jerking ol the teats.
 After each COW is mixed the mill should be removed immediately to the milk house.

PR|CES-
 GOOD CROPS
And Good Demand for All Farm
 Products.

It is no new experience for settlers located in fertile country such as Western Canada, where lands may be bought at very reasonable prices. to harvest a crop that in one season pays the entire cost of their farm. Undoubt- edly this was the experience of many farmers during 1915. but one instance may be quoted. A settler who came to Canada from the United States some years ago decided to add to his holdings by buying an adjoining quar- ter section near his home at Warner, at s20.00 an acre, with terms spread over a period of years. He got the land into a good state of cultivation and last spring put the whole quarter section in wheat. When the crop was threshed he found that it only took half the wheat on the farm to pay the whole purchase price of it; in short a single years crop paid the cost of the land. paid all the expenses of op- eration and left him a handsome sur plus as profit. This settler had some adjoining land, and his whole wheat crop for the season amounted to over IS 000 bushels He is new ri:c: ming to obtain some sheep and invest his profits in live stock which will as- sure him a good living irrespective of what the season may happen to be.
 Canada's financial position is ex- cellent. All speculation has been elim. mated, and trading is done on cash basis, with restricted credit.
 Detailed figures of Canada's trade for twelve months ending October 31 show how the war is forcing Canadian trade into new channels. One of the most extraordinary changes is in com merce with the United States. A couple os years ago Canada imported from the United States two or three hundred million dollars worth of goods more than she exported. The balance of trade was all with the United States. The balance is rapid ly disappearing, and the present out look is that by the end of this year Canada will have exported to the United States more than she has i'm ported.
 The figures for the past four years are Illuminating. They are as fol. lows:
