‘newspaper a source of entertain-
ment, I have seen very few exceptions.
‘Our kiddies are devoted readers in their

‘way—we take the ‘Vancouver Province’:

—perhaps that is why.. I do not mind
‘the children reading. what they can of it,
for the ‘Province’ is always clean. and
‘ wholesome. It is very satisfying to know
that any and every day our children can
pick up the ‘Province,’ without being ex-
posed to vulgarity and objectionable news. -
‘Really there are very few papers I. know
of that interest the whole family like the

‘Province’ does.”

The principle of cleaning and grad:

‘ling seed has many times been shown

to be sound. The practice of eleaning
and grading entails little labour and
relatively Httle expense in equipment
The use of good seed then is a mat-
ter’ which the good farmer cannot over
look as 1 means of producing larger
and betier crops.

ArTONs FOR BIG EGG YIELDS

Some excelent egg laying records
bave been made the Lethbridge, Al-
berta, Experimental Station. A. record
of three hundred eggs was made by
one hen, while: twenty-seven produced
two. hundred and. fifty eggs or more,
and one hundred -and four exceeded
two hundred eggs in the year. To ob-
tain such records it was necessary to
follow n. careful system of feeding. The
winter scratch ration was made-up
of two parts of whent and one part
each of cracked corn and crushed
oats, A very small portion of this feed
was thrown in the litter in the morn-
ing to start the birds exercising, The
balance of the seratch feed was given
about one hour previors to the birds
golug to roost. A dry mash was avail-
able to the birds at all times, was com-
pased of équal parts of bran, shorts,
wheat, middlings corn meal, oat chop,
and meat meal, with a very ‘little fine
salt and charcoal added. The — birds
were iso fed moist noon meal consist-
ing of acerumbly mash made with the
same, ingredients as the dry mash with
thement menl, salt and etharconl om-
itted. This noon meal was omitted on
ays aceording to the. judgment of
the feeder, who aimed at all times
to keep the appetites of the birds keen
The flock was nlso given green feed
such as cnbboge, alfalfa, mangels,
turnips ests, nud sngar beets. With
the arfival of spring growth the binds

had been seeded with a mixture . of
