To The Editor WABIGOON, Ont Editor, Dryden Observer-- I've been watching your "column to see something more said about the Creamery, until I have become out of patience and although pen and ink are out of my line, I am inclined to say a few words to the best of my abiliy. In the first place I supported the Creamery as much as I was able to anc am sorry to say it wasn't much. 1 noticed last summer that some of my neighbours were still shipping to Win: peg, but why I do not know. Suiel: there must be something to cause it, or no reasonable man would ship cream all that distance. I know that I got better returns from Dryden, than from Winnipeg. What we want to find out is "hav we a dairy district or not ?" Mixec farming means just that. We are sur we have not a grain-growing soil, o. not just vet at least. Although have as good seed grain as ever bought, or that I grew last year for mj own use. Although I am not very we! informed on soils, I think we have : clay soil here that wil compare wel with any other clay soil in this little lum called "the earth." I have see grown here, both vegetables and grain that would compare with any I eve saw. Although I come from a plac | Where they pay five pounds an acre, o j about $24. in our money, rent per year that is 34 years ago, what rent de thes pay now? That land, however wa tile drained. We seem to have : stratiformed elay just below the sm face that I think was formed by th glacial action under enormous pressur: that neither water or air or farm 'ero; roots can penetrate through, so tha means we need under drains as muc! or more than any other place on thi globe and as we have a beautiful bec of moist and fertile clay just unde: that stratified clay, that means, i: drained we would have the dew worms working to help us drain our land an' get out of the way of frost, just th same as they used to at home. The; are a great help to the farmers, a lo more so than some people think. Un der drains would double our crop. I is not a speculation, it has always paid 'its way, and would help out the Cream ery more than anything else that w ~could do.. The Governments just now are falling over one another trying t do something for the farmer. The; have found out that all riches com from the ground and water now, a: they always have done and that th farmer is trying his hardest to hel; draw and distribute those riches fron his part of it. Mr Ferguson says that his govern ment is going to help the farmer. Wh: not use some of our share to do a littl draining. Someone else say some thing to help the thing along. I fo my part, do not like to sit down an. be as little use to my country as a pai of stilts would be to a laying duck out I know the edito would like to see this question thrashed out, and if it is, I think I will live tc see the Dryden district one of the richest farming districts in Canada. --H.
