Drainage Demonstration. mâ€"â€"â€"- Mr. I). A. McKenzie, B. S. A.», the re- presentative at Lindsay of the Ontario Department of Agriculture, intends holding a drainage demonstration at Fenelon Falls early in September. It is hoped that there will be a good atten- dance of farmers and others who may be interested, as the information Mr. McKenzie is able to give is of great value. The Post says: “During the summer Mr. M clienzie has surveyed and laid down about 3,000 feet of tile drains in Reaboro, 4,400 feet S. E. of Lindsay, and has made preliminary survey of 500 rods at the House of Refuge farm. He has also made preliminary surveys in Mariposa. Farmers are chary about asking him for his services. They ex- pect to be held up for some heavy ex- penses, whereas Mr. McKenzie is at their disposal without any further cost than his travelling expenses and board. It is a pity farmers do not make more use of his assistance offered them by the government as, the fund of invalu- able‘information to be had would save years of misdirected enterprise and am able the farmer to produce a great deal more from his land. If farmers could only grasp the intensity of Mr. M c- Kenzic’s desire to help them, they would lose no time in making his acquaintance.” Autumn Sown Crops. Prof. C. A. Zavitz, of the Guelph Ex- perimental Farm, is sending out for pub- lication the following interesting report of results of experiments with autumn- sown crops: Four hundred and ten farmers through- out Ontario conducted experiments with autumn sown crops during the. past year. Reports have been received from thirty- six of the cohnties of the Province. Those counties which furnished the greatest conducted experiments were Middldsex, I-Iurdn,-Brant, Norfolk and M uskoka. The experimenters deserve much credit for the good work which they have done, not only;l‘oi-f'th'elnselvcs but for the farmers generally. Average results of the care- fully ‘conducted co-operative experi- ments with autumn sown crops are here presented-'11 a very concise form. Winter W heavyâ€"Four varieties of win- ter wheat 'tvere distributed last autumn to those dinners who wished to test some of the leading varieties on their own farms.- The average yields per acre. of straw and of grain are as follows: Imperâ€" ial Amber,.l.4 tons, 24.1 bus; Abundance, 1.3 tons, 23.9 bus; Bulgarian, 1.2 tons, 21.9 bus.; and Nigger, 1.4 tons, 21.9 bus. The Imperial Amber gave the greatest yield per‘acre in the co-operative en- perimentsdhroughoutOntario in 1907 and in 1908, as'well as in 1000. It also came first in popularity with the experiment- ers in each of these yeais. The Imperial Amber will again be distributed through- out Ontario this autumn as one of the varieties for co-operative experiments. We distributed the Dawson's Golden Chaff for co-operative experiments throughdut Ontario in each of twelve years, but not within the last three years. According to extensive inquiries which we have made this year, the Dawâ€" son's Golden Chaff is still the most pop- ular and the most extensively grown varietyof winter wheat in the Province. Winter Ryeâ€"The average yield of grain per acre of each of three varieties of winter rye, distributed in the autumn of 1908, is as follows: Mammoth White, 28.1 ; common, 22.1; and Washington, 19.0. In the experiments throughout Ontario, the Mammoth White surpassed the'common rye by an average of (lve bushels per acre in 1007, 5.4 bushels per in 1908, and six bushels per acre in 1) . ' Fertilizers with Winter Wheat. In the co-operative experiments with dif- ferent fertilizers applied to winter wheat, the average yields of grain per acre for five years areas follows: Mixed ll‘ertilizer, 25.2 bus; nitrate of soda, 23.8 bus.; muriate of potash, 22.9 bus.; and super-phosphate, ‘22.? bus. The un- fertilized land gave an average 'of 19.0 bus. per acre. The superphosphate was applied at the rate of 320 pounds and the muriate of potash and the nitrate of soda each 100 pounds per acre. The mixed fertilizer consisted of one-third of the quantity of each of the other three fertilizers here mentioned. The usual cost of the fertilizers as used in I this experimhnt is between four andl five dollars per acre. Fodder Crops. In each of the six years, the seed of hairy velzches and of winter rye has been distributed through- out Ontario for co-operative experi- ments in testing these crops for fodder purposes. In the average of six years' experiments, ‘he hairy vetches pro- duced slightly the la rgest yield of green fodder per acre, but in 19119 the largest yield was produced by the winter rye. As long as the supply lasts, material will be distributed free of charge in the order in which the applications are re-; ceived from Ontario farmers wishing to experiment and to report the results of any one of the following tests: 1, three 'muu..nwwi was... tum” “00.-.... “we.--” ....... varieties of winter wheat ; 2, two varle= ties of winter rye; 3, llve l'el‘lili'Aors of winter wheat; 4, autumn and spring applications of nitrate of soda and com- mon salt with winter wheat; 5, winto cmmer and winter barley; (i, huir’y' vetches and winter rye as fodder crops. The size 01' each plot is to be one rod wide by two rods long. Material for numbers 3 and 4 will be sent bv express and that for the others by mail. m School Board. Fenelon Falls, August 10th, 1009.
