FEW ONTARIO, according to official reports, an agricultural area great er than the cleared Tdhd in old Cntario, says Ahmik in The To- | ronto Globe. | I do not pertend to, be able to verify this claim #@#8 a result of personal | but I have traverSed, the greater part of the distance from Haileybury to Cochrane six times,' have been over the whole distance twice, have made several side trips | on different occasions, and can Lon- estly say that I have seen there great- er continuous stretches of unbroken tillable land than I have found in old Ontario in wheeling trips covering practically every county in the Prov- ince. This year New Ontario has been up against it in the matter of wea- ther conditions. Thé official record at Monteith Farm shows only six inches of rain at-that point from the time snow disappeared until the mid- dle of August. Still, across the track from the farm, on the holding of an ordinary settler, 1 last week as- sisted in measuring the product of a single potato which showed a top 44 inches in width and 30 inches high; and this was not.a specially selected hill. It was a fair average of those growing in_ a considerable patch where stem$ wnd leaves hid a soil that was mellow as an ash heap. In many other places potatoes evident- ly as vigorous were 'to be seen. On the Frederick House River I was served with green beans, grown in a settler's garden, that were just a lit- tle better than any I had tasted be- fore in the course of the whole sum- mer. Grain crops generally, because of the dry weather, re on thé light side in New Ontario, but they average better than those in the western part of old Ontario. At Monteith Farm part of the oat crop was in the barn by the middle of August and the re. mainder was rapidly approaching ma- turity. From Monteith . south to New Liskeard the grain harvest was as far advanced last week as it was in the county of York, and in the north country last week I lost mors weight by perspiration while walk ing than I did while helping in witk, the hay crop at home in hot July. It is true the seasons are not al ways dependable in New Ontario Sometimes frost comes late in spring and early in autumn. But men are still living who can tell of frozen grain in Bruce and even in Ontaric and Durham counties in the early days. With each passing year, and each addition to the area under cul tivation, the danger of frost: wil: grow less. . Kven to-day, in a stretct of country as-long as from Torontc to Owen Sound, Dawson's Golder Chaff in winter wheat, Marquis 01 Prelude in spring, 0.A.C. No. 3 oats and O.A.C.

Clemens, manager of the experimen- tal farm at Moanteith, thinks he has {found a substitute for corn ensilage {in a mixture of peas, vetches, an® oats, which he has siloed this year and that gave a yield (green) of eight to ten tons to the acre. On this same farm is a plot of al- falfa that has passed through four winters and still covers the ground, the crop now growing carrying a splendid promise in seed, for which it is being saved, Black and red currants, gooseber- ries, raspberries, rhubarb, -agpara- gus, cabbage,-¢arrots, beets, etc., and all growing in the farm garden. Daw- son's Golden Chaff last year gave 30 bushels to the acre. Oats this year (not threshed yet) gave'promise of fifty, and a field of red clover being raised for ceed looks good for five bushels to the acre. What is the cost of clearing the land? That varies according to the class of timber. On part of the Mon- teith Farm, where some of the stumps had to be blown opt with dynamite, actual records show a cost of less than $20 an acre for twenty acres." On. heavily-timbered land, if an attempt is made to clean up at once, the cost may reach $100. On the same land, if one waits for a year or two, until the stumps dry out, jthe outlay need not exceed that on the Monteith Farm, In some of the ter- ritory swept by the } fires the ex- pense should Dot go over $2 an acre way for the plow. is a peor man's coun- a man there last week ly in Eng- enough ~ Show embraces | i : Paper Co.

HOME LIFE DISAPPEARS. New Parliament Buildings Make No Provision for Familes. No doubt the restored and «n- Ot- itects and stonemasons have done their work, but it is likely that in the restoration wha: was an import- ant, if not a conspicuous, feature of Luxuriant the original butidings will largely or wholly disappear, There was once a domestic sidé to the stately pile in which Canada's Commoners and Sen- ators debated very undomestic, ques- tions, buf there will be little or none |' It is hardly to be expect- unparliamentary an'interest as home life in Federal halls can be made in these busy and matter-of-fact days. Now that those capital scenes of one-time domestic doings have: been burned away, it is worth recalling to just what extent they figured in the order and routine .of\ Ottawa life thirty or forty years ago. When the fated tral Block was built, residences were set apart for several officials, as well as for the caretakers and the Speakers of both Houses. One by one, however, these were crowded out, until at last only the caretakers resided in the build- ing all the year through, and the Speakers and a very few others dur- ing the Parliamentary session. Among those for whom residence provision had thus been made were the Deputy Speaker of the Commons, the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Com- mons, and the clerk of the Senate. Until some fifteen years ago the Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod, an official, of the Senate, had resi- dence in the buildings, but space be- came 80 greatly needed there that an increase of five hundred dollars in his salary was given him on condi- tion that he should live outside. The difference in remuneration 'was hard- ly equal to the added cost of living, but the Black Rod accepted tre offer, and his rooms were afterwards used for business purposes. The suites of rooms reserved for the Speakers and their families were commodious, comfortable, and well lighted. They consisted of reception and dining-rooms, several 'bedrooms, and a small office, used by the Speaker's wife. The Commons and Senaté Speaker's rooms were, course, on their respective sides the building. Those of the Senate bad a private stairway leading to the gallery of the Senate chamber, which was used by the Governor- General and his family when 'they wished to hear debates in the Sen- ate or to witness the opening of Par- liament without going upon the floor of thg House. ' Home for Mentally Disabled Meu. A statement issued by the Military Hospitals Commission announces that a special institution has been opened at Cobourg for mentally-dis- abled soldiers. The statement is as follows: "Soldiers suffering from mental breakdown need quite as much care as the men disabled by wounds or physical disease. They need, how- ever, care of a different kind. Ob- viously they cannot be treated in tba regular military hospitals. It is sat- istactory to know that a special in- stitution has now been provided for ther; so that, unless and until they prove incurable, they will not have to become inmates of an asylum. "At the request of the Military Hospitals Commission the Ontario Government has devoted to this pur- pose the old Trinity College building, situated in beautiful grounds at Co- bourg, on Lake Ontario, where the natural surroundings: will co-oper- ate with the most highly skilled treatment to give patients the best possible chance of complete recov- ery. - Two physicians, experts in 'alienism,' have been appointed to carry out the treatment, and the most up-to-date electrical and other It is a little | Apparatus will be at their command. "The hospital has just opened with eight inmates. Others will be taken there from the various institutions where they have been temporarily accommodated, and in future any Canadian soldier becoming mentally afflicted will be sent to Cobourg direct."

Harry A, Guess, of New York, consulting engineer of the American Smelting and Refining Company, a Queen's graduate, was reported to have, said, when in Spokane, Wash- ington, on August 16th: "Copper appears. to occupy a strong position in the metal market now that the Allies have come forward with good buying orders, and there does not seem to be any liklihood of a serious decline in its price for a long time. The outlook for lead is generally felt to be more indefinite. While by no means weak, at present it is the least] strong of all,the metals, as it is the general 'belief that the Allied demand for copper for the manufacture of munitions will be accompanied in some degree by a demand for spelter, with the result that the price of zinc should be materially increased. My personal opinion is that with the re- turn of peace and ordinary business conditions, spelter will experience a sharp decline to prices more nearly normal." Canadian Bonds Snapped Up.
