Q? The Daily Trade Bulletin has the follow. ing to say of barley in Chicago : Buyers have had rather the best side of the market the past week. More barley came on sale, receipts aggregating 329 cars. There was not at the same time a corresponding gain in demand. In the offerings there was rather a larger percentage of western fair ’but somewhat unsound goods. In View of increased offerings bids were reduced. A reduction of 2 to 3c in value stimulated buying, but only briefly, for buyers get- ting what'they wanted were again disposed to hold off. Low grade, ,feed barley, also was weaker, besides being harder to sell. Exports have fallen ofi’ materially. This .class of barley has been used for this pur- pose mainly. Late reports from English markets- where this barley has mainly goneâ€"cite a very slow trade, with plenty ‘ of this, together with cheap feeding grain ‘ .of other kinds offered. so as to cause weak- ,ness. This accounts for late falling ofi' in exports and decrease in demand from I abroad. Sound and good to best malting barley was not so plenty as the under strata of medium grades, still there W48 enough of it for all needs. and this als Bacon ...... perfb........ 0'09t0010 Mess Pork, per bb]........ 000to 17 50 Hay. per ton ............. 6-00 .to 8 00 do extra Prime ........ 0 00 .to 00 00 Shorts per ton. . .5 .........

The more protection we have, in the way of shelter belts the less sweeping ,1 mean prevention in a measure of extremes, the possibilities of a. sudden rise or fall in the temperatureâ€"changes so frequent in .the prairie districtsâ€" may be lessened. Then again evapora- ‘ tion from the soil is very much reduced. There is a vast difference ‘between the condition on the surface of the hare and uncovered soil, and the soil on the forest floor. A forest floor .serves the purpose of a sponge in collecting and holding the moisture which comes down in the form of rain. The fine root; system of the trees assists in drawing up moisture from below. As the rain falls it collects around and within these forest centres which hold and give it up gradually, thus obviating spring torrents and summer freshets. Another important point which has not been sufficiently emphasised in connection with forest influence is the prevention of the strong force of the winds, with their great evaporating power. The evaporating power of the wind is gen- erally in direct proportion to its velo- 'lhe effects of forestry on the climate of a. country are nearly all beneficial,- such as more equal distribution of rain- fall. This is one of the most important points to be considered; another is the regulation‘of the temperature, by this T - _ Horticultural to Experimental Farms before Agricultmal Committee of House of Commons. ruled easy, with some concessions neces- sary to sell; still price changes were not So marked as these before mentioned. All classes of buyers have taken hold With moderation. Fair, but a little unsound, such as sold a week ago at around 40 to 41c declined the past week at 35 to 38c, and low grade poor feed barley was quota- ble at 30 to 330, but there was little of it on sale, hence no sales of account made. Sound, according to color, weight and other conditions, ranged at 42 to 50c out- side, very nice goods. The better selected cars brought 52 to .550, with occasionally a. car sold for a shade more. The trade in screenings was dull. Some cars on the market so very poor that they were not cared for at all. Good clean goods, how- ever. were saleable.

It would act in the direction of preventing the direct action of the sun’s rays, and be of great assistance at the time of seed germination in the spring as very frequently the first growing of garden seed is much disturbed by spring winds. Among the most promising varieties of forest trees for giving quick shelter, I wish to draw your attention to a class destined to be one of great service in the Northwest, I refer to the testing of a large number of fast growing willows and poplars which have from time to time been introduced from East Europe and the plains, and steppe country of Russia. We have now growing at the Central Farm raised from cuttings sev- eral thousands of these willows and poplars which will be increased as rapidly as possible. They are a remark- ‘ ably fast growing hardy race of trees. We have already tested them at a few points in the North-West in small quantities, and they have given every indication of hardiness and suecess. We are now making arrangements to continue the work of distributing next year by sending a large selection of these to a number of points in Manitoba and the North-West. Among those which indicate great future usefulness are Populus Certinesis, Pop. Petrovsky, Salix acutifolia and Salix laurifolia. If we can introduce and establish at differ- ent points groves of these hardy fast- growing poplars and willows, and thus obtain a little shelter, we may hope a little later on to introduce some of the more tender and valuable sorts which are not able to withstand the rigors of the climate unprotected, and so by making a small beginning our woods may be gradually increased. winds we have, and the moisture is taken less rapidly from the soil. There is no doubt that as soon as we can get in the Northwest :1 sufficient amount of forest area to mitigate to some extent the force of the winds. we will have a much less rapid evaporation and much more favorable conditions, for fruit [culture and agricultural operations gen- emlly.
