1.-THE TOP DRESSING
OF SMALL GRAIN
USUALLY ADDS MATERIALLY 70
THE YIELD SAYS PROF. r. q.
, kEITT.
DRIED BLOOD IS EFFECTIVE
When Applying a Top Dresser AppiI-
cation Should Be Made When
Blades Are Dry.

The topdressing OF small grain usu
ally adds materially to the yield.
During these times when the In.
crease in production is so vitality i'm.
portant the proper use of nitrate of
soda. sulphate Of ammonia or dried
blood as a topderssing for grain
should prove very effective. At pres
ent prices the use Of nitrate Of soda
and sulphate Of ammonia should prove
most profitable, as they are consider.
ably cheaper per pound Of actual nj
trogen than dried blood.
The addition Of topdressers to oats
has been particularly effective at the
Coast Station: dried blood applied at
the rate Of 120 pounds per acre show
ed an average increase OF 24.6 bushels
or oats per acre when applied in addi-
tion to 600 pounds OF S-4-4 fertilizer
per acre; sulphate OF ammonia at the
rate Of 75 pounds per acre, $40 bush

the rate OF 100 pounds per acre show.
ed an average increase Of 2O.7 bushels
per acre.
At the Pee Dee Station the use OF
nitrate OF soda as q topdresser for
oats, that had been fertilized at plan.
Ing time, applied early at the rate or
100 pounds per acre has shown an
average Increase OF 1916 bushels Of
oats per acre, late application Of the
same amount Of nitrate Of soda show
ed an average increase OF 17O bushels
per acre: while double application
made at both times showed an aver
age Increase OF 220 bushels per acre
These results indicate that an early

suits.
The early applications are made
about March 1st When applying 4
topdresser the application should be
made when the blades OF the plants
are dry to prevent scalding.
Generally speaking, larger increases
are obtained from topdressers where
the grain has not been fertiliZed

POINTS TO EMPHASIZE IN &c.
LECTiNG HOGS.

In selectihg hogs either for breed.
ing or feeding there are some points
to which one should give special at
tention.
The question Of breed is largely a
matter OF personal preference. how.
ever. one should consider the popu.
larity or demand for what he proposes
to breed. Choose a breed that has
proved good one-there are several
then select stock that are as true TO
type as you can get.
Constitution Is OF vital Importance.
1t Is natural that animals OF strong
constitution have better appetites;
animals that give the most economical
and rapid gains are the ones that eat
freely. Indications Of constitution are
large heart girth and a broad. well.
shaped head.
Body capacity is another essential,
though II is very commonly lacking in
hogs. Body capacity is found in the
animal that has plenty OF Stretch
good length. depth and breadth.
Insist on quality which is indicated
by the hair and bone especially, and
the general finish and refinement Of
the animal as a whole.
When a boar is to be selected, look
for the points already mentioned and
in addition select an individual that
is strong In masculinity and the char
acteristics Of the breed he represents.
n brood sow, look for femininity
together with the points mentioned.
Experienced breeders place much
stress on pronounced sex characters
tics as they are intimately associated
with prepotency and regularity In
breeding. r. l.. SHIELDS.

DESERVES A GOLD
MEDAL FOR THIS
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
up any corn or callus so it
lifts right off.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the
shoes that nearly killed you before,
says this Cincinnati authority, be-
cause few drops of freezone ap-
piled directly on a tender, aching
corn stops soreness at once and soon
the corn loosens so it can be lifted
out, root and all, without a bit of
pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freezone
costs very little 1t any drug store, but
is sufficient to take off every hard or
soft corn or callus. This should be
tried, as it is inexpensive and is said
not to inflame or even irritate the
surrounding tissue or skin.

will be glad to know Of this. Adv l..

off with smile. 1t will make you a
comrade to him and an example as
well. He will say to himself:

and meet her trouble with smile, |

"And when you write to him-and
write often!-don't send him sorry
letters. Don't moan and tell all the
black things you think about. Make
him feel that you're proud and happy
about him. If he thinks you under
stand, he will be proud and happy

 The immense possibilities of the prairies as a food growing country have been carefully considered by government officials Not only will vast tracts be made available to the soldiers on a homestead basis. but the federal and provincial governments will give financial assistance in eQup- ping the new farms with proper ma chinery, Long term loans will be provided through rural credits sEs- tcms.
 Extension of manufactures, as well as agriculture, in western Canada IS anticipated. One of the first qu9S- tioas taken up by the inter provincial conference which has been in pro- Hress at Ottawa was the transfer or control of natural resources ot tho prairie provinces from federal to pro- yincial governments.
