A., of Lindsay, whose subject was “ The Care of Poultry Products.” Mr.- McKenme Said he happened to know, in connection with the questions ask-ed Mr. Groh, that there were three or four varieties of alfalfa being tested at Guelph, but the common alfalfa was the kind almost en- tirely in use; and he believed that in a short time all the seed sown in the province will be'home grown. It was necessary to examine seed carefully for impurities. Slit? sam‘ples he had. ex; amined for Hogg «St Lytle had contained impure seed of various kinds.

Farmers have found per cent. The growing of alfalfa makes tratcs. Protein is the costly element in feed and also the costly part of fertiliz- ’ing- materials. Four-fifths of the air is nitrogen, and alfalfa takes it from the ishment from deep down in the soil, and ; puts it within reach of other crops. It ' fills the- sois‘r' with. roots, which decay and ; leave the soil in a mellow condition ’much more cheaply and easily than it can be done by horse labor, and in fact better than it can be done by tillage. Mr. Grolt's. own. experience when he praising it; and in looking for the cause of the contradictions he discovered that gthose who had not succeeded with it :had been pursuing improper methods. l They had been sowing with their grain, i and had not had the land properly pre- pared, and some had pastured it the first year. His method was to get the ground ready the previous year, and next spring give frequent harrowith to get the land thoroughly clean, and to sow the seed by itself. He used 18 lbs ,to the acre. One man he knew sowed ’ as high as 25 lbs to the acre, and said he was going to try 30, as he found the crop better the more seed he sowed. Mr. Groh’s first crop went about three tons to the acre, but had not always ‘ been as good since. He generally cut it twice in the season. In his locality everybody was now growing alfalfa. Clover dies out. = Alfalfa never dies out unless killed. Things that injure it are too much water or too little water, pasturing too close, and grass or weeds crowding it out. It ' is important to have the land clean before sowing. Alfalfa is a warm season- plant. He sows in the end of May or in June, or would in a pinch, if conditions not . favorable earlier, sow as late as the middle of July. The sowing should be done as evenly as possible. Replying toM r. Billett, Mr. Groli said he had never used nitro culture, but had seen cases where failure had been due to this cause. Enough nitro culture for a bushel of seed could be bought for 25c. The culture should not be set out in the sunlight. Mr. Billett said that the culture made the seed gummy and it clogged in the machine. He had sowed it by hand. M r. G. Imrie said he had sowed it by hand as soon as the culture was applied. Mr. Groh said he did not think he could get the seed in evenly enough by hand, but it was all right if you were expert enough. Mr. Groh and members then discussed methods of curing alfalfa, Mr. Groh stating that his method was to cut it in the morning of a good day and coil it the same evening and in three or four days haul in. It stands rain very well in the coil. Mr- Thurston remarked that. M r. Glendening of Manilla cuts it and hauls it, in. the same day. Mr; Groh, continuing, said, too. much, dependence had been placed on timothy. Twice as much,alfalfa as timothy can be grown in the same space, and it is worth four-times;as.muchns timothy for feed- ing,. making its value eight times as great asthat of timothy. Timothy is not in.it. with alfalfa. .Questionâ€"Did you ever; break up a piccecfr 112?. i " " .4..- .‘gg __..._ that is the ‘ most profitable way to dispose of them, and so we want to get things out by practice sometimes before the scientists discovered them. Mr. Groh exhibited a chart, showing the different constituents in. June grass, corn silage, mangel's, timothy hay, clover, alfalfa, bran, etc., and explained the value of alfalfa, which contains 11 per cent. of protein as against 2.8 per cent. ? in timothy hay and about 6â€" per cent. in; red clover; Wheat bran. contains-12.2 us practically independent of concen- air, and by its long roots obtains nour- Scientists have analyzed them and made i began to grow alfalfa, had been that he: found some men condemning and others. ‘1: , ,.. . _ s. -gfi-yâ€" 1“! cent., and the third week one hnl‘ll' of“ one per- cent., a very gratifying result. ‘to this locality to organize a branch within: the next few months. Regarding poultry, crate fed birds were worth 5 to 8 cents-a pound more than ordinary fowls, but individual farmers could get , only a slight advance, unless. they had: a distinct or- private trade. Mr. McKenzie regretted that he- was unwell; and unable to go into the subject more fully; but said he would be pleased at any time to write to any- one desiring information. The Women's Institute had’ a very profitable and pleasant meeting in the afternoon, and the attendance was good. Dr. McAl‘pi’ne- spoke on “'How- to be W'elll‘ and Happy," and mentioned proper food, with sufficient mastication, as being essential. The importance of cleanli- ness. of body was also emphasized. fDrink plenty of water, take plenty of exercise and breathe plenty of fresh air; Happiness is. largely the result of health. Mr. Groh made a strong appeal for the boys in his address “ The Stairway of ‘ Bible Class. Success" at the- evening meeting. The boys should be encouraged in their in- clinations, instead of being hindered, as was too often the case. Parents should ,take an interest in. what the children; “are doing. Find out what the boy likes to do, and help him. If he wants to gather bugs. take an interest in it in- lstead of trying to stop him, and some - day he may develop into a bugologist. If he is eternally sawing up all the bits of board he can get his hands on, and hammering everything full of nails, guide him in that direction. Procure a little lumber, and some tools, not giving him these things for his own, but per- mitting him to use them. If another lad takes an interest in cattle, or in the crops, encourage him. Presently you'll have a farmer. He mentioned an in- stance of a lad he knew, who was “no good on the farm,” except as far as im- plements were concerned. He was dead to everythingexcept machinery. Now, at the age of eighteen, he is overseer of ;a large gasoline engine works, with a handsome salary. ' Success is in finding out what you are best fitted for, and then doing that thing as well as you can. It is not in accu- mulating- dollars- and cents. If, the speaker said, he were obliged to give a definition of success, he would say it was “Something definite undertaken, and that thing achieved.” Do not try- to accomplish something great all at once, but do the smaller'things that come to you to the best of your ability. Observation, consideration, conclusion, resolution, and execution, are steps in the stairway of success. The world is hunting for men of character, who can make decisions and act on their own initiative, and do not need instructions for every hand’s turn they do. “Mental Culture ” was the subject chosen by.Dr. McAlpine, who explained the various ways in which knowledge that might not at first glance appear to be of practical use, was valuable to ‘ its possessers and to those with whom they came in contact. As to. means of acquiring or increasing mental culture, , the speaker recommended the formation ' of reading circles onelubs for the sys-_ 1 ;tematic study of the works of good- authors. Public libraries should be taken full advantage of.

Now, on the eve of your departure from us, we desire to give utterance to our sorrow. In the words of the poet: “ We feel with secret pain Our lives henceforth have separate-ends, And never can be one again.” - You were» with us at the inception of our Bible Class last May; the outlook: for our work, at that time, was not par- ticularly bright, and at best, it seemed little- more than. an experiment. We. believe now, however, that we- have already passed beyond the academic- part of our career, and that, ere long, our organization will be a permanent.‘ part and parcel of Rosedale life. A. large part of our success we attribute to your unstinted efforts. As chairman. of our Devotional Committee you have- not only been devotional in your- attitude cf worship, but you have been devoted to your duty. In church enter- tainments. your time and talent have proved invaluable a-id‘s, while at 21151} social functions we have found you a. ' jolly good fellow. If' circumstances permit, we hope to. have you with us again; we wish yom Godspeed on your voyage and pray that through life “ Your ways'maybe ways of pleasantness and all your paths be peace.” ' As an emblem of our friendship for you- and of our appreciation. of you; we- ask you to accept and wear this locks-ts We ask you to keep us in. memory and: when you make your supplications to. the Throne of Grace, breathe a prayer for our Bible Class.
