Ontario Department of Agricultural Representatives Were the Speak- ers ~-- The Small Attendance Was Regretted. a Afternoon and evening sessions of the Farmers' Institute were held in the hall at Westbrooke, on. Tuesday. * The lecturers were A. P. MacVanuel, B.S:A., of Picton, district representa- {tive for Prince Fdward county, and Gi. B. Curran, B.S.A., of Napanes, the Lennox and Addington disteict repre- sentative. In the afternoon District Representa- tive "Mac Vangel spoke inatractively on the growing of alfalfa and corn, R gardmg the former, he explained some \thing of its. history and its perennial ioter, belonging as it. does to the Legume family. He made reference te its. fertilizing and feeding value, and spoke of "the nature of soil required for successful crops. He preferred the Ontario * variegated seed, and advised that alialfa should be cut when one tenth in bloom. During his somewhat extensive re marks on "the raising of corn crops, and the acquiring of the proper sead; he_barred shelled corn in sacks. The fivedried, although a little more ex- pensive, he favored. Fven at $3 a bushel he did not consider it dear, when that quantity would seed seven acres. For the best.results he declared vorn intended for seeding should he put. in open crates op the ear, rather than in sacks. This gizes the farier an opportunity of making a germina- tion test with the individual ear. The results by doing this: ke said fully warrant the efort put 'into the test, whether the corn has heen purchased or is the farmer's own growth. Mr. MacVannel explained the best method of testing and this test, ai- ter proeuring it, he believes is one of the telling factors in the success- ful raising of corn. This kind of a erop must. be given ~ avery chance, for it is to play a greater part than ever in the feeding of stock. With reference to the sowing and growth of corn he devoted some tinm as well ay 'the fertilizing of = the land, with the proper constituents. Mr. Curran followed with a talk on soil fertility. On the point: that land in time runs out and is not fit for bountiful crops he ewplained the proper treatment of it, 'and the ro- tation of grops. He cited ond case where. soil. used for.100 years had vielded fifty-five bushels of barley to the aere. Mr. Curran gave a sum- mary of the chemical "aspect of the subject, the food element for the plant and the necessity of air, as well as having af')medium' of water. He included the matter of natural' or are tificial draining. In the matter of the rotation of crops the following table was given showing the value, per ton, of fu- tility taken out of the soil. hy va- rious products 3 Timothy hay, 85.10: red clover hay, £0.07; oat straw, $3.06; potatoes, $1.- 85; mangels, $1.19; wheat straw, $12. 45; oats, $7.43; cows' milk, $2.09; cheese, $17.21; butter; .36; eggs, $8. 05; live cattle, $11.78, Hvery farmer he said. should "adopt some system of rotation of corps to build up his soil. One method quot- ed was growing more clover, and put- ting back the fertilizer, thus in a few years bringing back the good soil. Both subjects of the evening's pro- gramme, "Poultry" and "Underdrain- age," were ilustrated by lantern views, "Which added greatly to the impression made. Mr. Curran, spoke very profitably on poultry, and things relating to the "sideline," in many instances. He ad: vocated the cotton front poultry hous: es, with straw lofts, and touched upon the feeds for winter egg production. For the best results in this respect he advocated Rhode Island Reds, White Wyandottes, and Barred Rocks, in the o named. Regarding the pro food, he suggested for the besh Es the feeding of hard grain in the morning, cabbage or roots at noon, and a little hard grain about four o'clock. There should be a dry mash before the birds at all times in hoppers, and also a supply of oyster shells, grit and charcoal. At the de monstration poultry houses at Nap- anes he told of 14 Rhode, Island pul lets laying 215 eggs in December. These birds had Been fed in the man- ner desoribéd. ' Me. MacVannel briefly outlined the history of under<draintige in Fur ope, but particularly in the British Isles, and its advent into Ontario. The necessity for these drains he believed was apparent to anyone in the province in the early spring, who observes the lateness of the™ seeding due to their lack, and often the poor crops in August. Mr. MaqVannel was inclined to feel that the good results of proper systems of under- Child Almast i -You never knbw what minute a child will develop a bad cold or be seized by croup.

On Wednesday the Yec- tures and addresses were at Dufferin, Thursday at Sydenham, and on Fri- day Sunbury will be the location of the institute, . Anthony Rankin, M.P.R,, who pre sided at Westbrooke, ~ appealed for more interest being taken in these on the part of the farmers, for whose bonefit they are being held. He de-- only too willing and anxious te, in this manner or through queries sent to it, assist in solving any prob- lem farmers are facing, or give any information required. On Tuesday afternoon the attend- ance at Westbrooke was small. One of the speakers suggested that por- haps it would be wise to doa little more newspaper advertising in "grit" and '"'tory" journals alike. C. Main, 'of Sydenham, the - local district representative, was present. GRAND OPERA HOUSE The Frpie Marks Company In "Sweet Clover." Another large audience witnessed the Erni» Marks Stock company's presen- tation of "Sweet Clover" at the Grand Opera ' House last evening. "Sweet Clover" is a rural drama of interest. The principal role was Miss Lynn, whose interpretation of the character of "Lois olcomb," a country" girl without any idea of fash- ionable 'society life, was a pretty piece of 'acting. Webb Chamberlain, as "Eldridge Grosvenor," the jealous husband, cleverly took his part. The different members of the company ably assisted in the 'unravelling of the plot. In the specialties, the two Browns won - approbation, while Gus Hogan and Frank Clayton were applauded for their efforts: Miss Lida Gardper's two pretty . gE, 'The Nice Old Maid" and "Sister Mary," carried the audience 'hy storm. She has a good voice, To-night comedy, Tramps." ---- EXPRESSES THANKS o taken by the 'eompany entitled * "The presents a Two Jolly For the Generous Support Extended To 'Him.
