CROPS WERE 600i) In Lanark County, Ontario, .This Yea! â€"-â€"Somo Figures South Lanark is among the favored counties this year. The crops were on the aveiage very good. The yield of hay was abundant and it was saved in firstâ€"class condition. The grain crop was evelything that con 'd be de- sired. It stood up w.ell which facili- tated the cutting of it veiy much. The straw was fairly large, and, as a rule, it “as free from wet. The threshed grain Weighed well, and one man said his best grain yielded 45 bushels per acre, and on an average it went 40. bushels per ame. Wheat, also, was a good crop, and the giain threshed out a good return. Consideiable quantities of corn was grown, and despite the difficulty of getting good seed and good germination, the crop was one of the best they have had for some years. During the summer and late spring the rainfall was a little short of that ri'eeded for the best plant growth and seed development, but nevertheless the crops are indeed satisfactory with the exception of potatoes, and they are rotting somewhat rapidly. Quite a number of the farmers have gone in for silos, and they are well pleased with them and think their money well invested. They claim that it enables them to keep a greater amount of stock, which coincides with the findings of other farmers who have tried silos. The people have all the hauling done, and the fall plowing is well advanced and by the time Jack Frost pays his usual visit the plowing will be done and the soil ready for the - action of the frost. _..‘_. ”WEâ€".â€" UTR'ED HELP i8 SGARGE Eastern Ontario Farmers Wait on Government for Aid The question of hired help is a. ser- ious one for the farmers of Ontario. . A deputation appointed by- the Farm. ers' Institute of Leeds and Lansdowne. recently waited on the immigration: authorities to see What steps should- be taken to secure efficient hired laborers. In brief, they were informed that the help secured by the immi- gration officers is secured in the old country piactically by ordex and de- mand, and labor‘exs are not brought out by them to this country-at hap'. hazard. The deputation was told that they would have to specify what they wanted, how many labelers, for what kind of work whether for yearly or- only temporary employment, wages, and where situated. An effort would then be made by the immigration of“?- cers in the old ebuntry to meet their- demand'. Efficient hired help to be- secured in Great Britiain is not at all too, plentiful and it was stated that only seven per cent. of the population are farmers. many a pom working woman has : been saved from suicide by the ano- dy‘ne of a cup of tea. When a conscientious mind is_ but- tressed by an inquisitive and pugna tious tempeiament, then houses and ;{ lands and cattle and maid-servants end such like small change of exis hence are easily obtained.

Statis- tics based on the recent. census in the United States are not yet available, but some figures recently published show that for the live years from 1902 to 1907 there 33 as an increase of 449 pet cent. in the number of mud phones in the Unit- ed States. Expansion was gleatest in many of the southern states, though this may be accounted for by the fact that these were late in taking up the rural phone In 1902 there were 220, 966 rural phones in. the United States, as compar- ed with 1, 464, 733 111 1907. No figures are. available showing the number of rural phones in use in Canada. These 33111 no doubt, be av ailuble after the June cen- sus is published. That they will show a ver3 large number of phones in use in Canadian farm homes there is no reasan to doubt). The movement,l1oweve1, has only had its beginning in Can: 1:111 in 1c- cent. 3cars, and the next decade will show a much larger developement of the rural phone idea. Q‘s. . Taken.
