RL REE J PORT PERRY FAIR, SEPT. 14 AND 15 ee ee eee 'Rotation of Crops By DR. ROBERTSON For the committee on Lands last year a survey was made of nine hundred and eighty-five farms, or an average of rather more than one hundred farms for each province. From the survey it was gathered that, of the whole number of farmg I visited, not more than nine per cent. follow any intelligent and effective system of rotation of crops. Many farmers take rotation to mean any order of sequence for one crop to follow another. Instead of that, rotation of crops implies that, dur- || soil which formerly held it in place. - ing vach year while the crop is growing, the best preparation is being made in the field for the succeeding crop and for the preservation of the fertility of the soil and its freedom from weads. follow a good rotation is as high as fifty per cent, in other localities not a single farmer reports any systematic rotation of his crops. Lack of rotation in one large area in the North West extending over about five hundred square miles is given as the reason for the destruction of the fibrous material in the "In the area, the farmers reported that, frcm want of root fibres in the soil, winds in the spring sometines carry off the surface soil including theli seed, or else'leave the seed bare. There are some Westerp cities that may follow the fate of Nineveh, smothered into oblivion from want of care in protecting the soils. The two following statements are typical of others made by farmers themselves -- "Farms are being worn out and are not giving returns they did." "Farmers have thoughtlessly allowed their farms to becomé more or less overrun with weeds, but now i| are thoughtful and alert and are combating the weed pest." aud South of the the Grand Trunk Main eh Ti oh EE Glaiph sub-division drom Guelph E § In some localities, the percentage of farmers who .

One man declared that the churches were not doing the work they were intended to da, and that they cost the community too much for the work accomplish ed. Then the other man spoke vp. He said: 'You talk of the cost of the churches to the com- munity. A man that only spent five cents a day in the barroom, wouldn't be considered much of a customer would hep" This was admitted to be true. "Well if a man give#™five cents a day to the church we consider him a pretty good giver." If you don't believe this just get hold of the average church report, and the number of persons whe give $18.25 per year is pretty small. Perhaps the cost of liquor to the community in actual cash outlay is bigger than is usually thought. It is a fact that the 'recent five per cent tax upon bar receipts was largely brought about because hotelkeepets often openly boasted of the large sums of money they were making, Passed Piano Exams Miss Lottie Beecroft, pasted her junior piano examination, Oe Miss Lillian Gibson, took honore inher primary piano 'examination.
