VIEWS. â€"A very pleasant time was spent last Friday evening at the residence ct Mrs. Mimms. 166 Kent-st., when Miss Hattie entertained twenty or her young iriends. From eight to twelve a merry time was spent in games, music. charades, etc. The party broke up early. all having spenta very enjoy able evening. â€"The “At Home“ under the auspices of the young people of the Baptist church last week, at the residence of Mr. R. Kennedy, was a most decided success. An interesting program was presented and refreshments served. A goodly num- ber of the older members of the church were present. ed milk was sunrmoned before County Magistrate Done on recently. says the Fen e- lon Fails Gazette. and admitting the offense was fined the lowest penalty â€" $20 and costs.

Although the outlook at the ope g of the afternoon session of the Farmers In- stitute meeting on Thursdnyin the council chamber was anything but enoonrv aging. yet the meeting provedtohe one ‘ ot the most interesting ever held in the town. It was close upon two o'clock when Mr. J. F. Dix. president, opened the pro. medias! by referring to the smell attend- nnoe, end expressing the hope thet this would not be true at future sessions. He also spoke of the benefits imported at pest I meetings, great good honing been accom- plished by the suggestions regerding winter feeding; a large number or silos had been built end n greater interest was now manifested. HOW TO GBO‘V CORN. The president then called upon Major James Sheppard, of Qaeeneten. who spoke on “Forty years experience In growing corn." In the Niagara district. when the speaker was a young men, and even to the preaenb day, the entire pnrenlb of the agri- _-__ n-n-Ina the hue then Iwuv.â€"- ___' . culturlsts wa} corn growing, was the prwclpua ....P.-__W,_ work is greatly simplified by np-to-date machinery. The most important thing is good cultivation. and the best chances are on a clover sod. Corn is a hot weather plant. and it is essential to plant early, as 9 and barrow it, filling in all cracks. and then in the spring you are not troubled with grass blades. An extra stroke of cultivation pays. The best results are obtained through planting in hills, as a there are more ears to the acre than by drills. The system that will bring corn to a further state of maturity is what should be followed. Quality, and not bulk. is what you want for a silo. Hills should be planted three feet four or six inches apart. With five or six stalks in a hill. A corn stalk that has grown an ear is better than one which has not. and chemical analysis corroborates the fact. Corn for in is three stalks to a hill, for silo pur- pose flve or six stains. It depends upon the soil whether you barrow much or little: corn requires humus in the soil. Manure in winter, plow down early in the spring, and good results will follow. After the corn is up move the soil all the timeâ€" let sunlight penetrate; stir the soil when warm and you turn down a great deal of heat; don’t run drills north and south. but east and west, so that sun may get be- tween the rows. Cut corn before freezing and avoid laying in small bundles. Peay ' fed bacon is better than corn-fed, but if mixed and fed judiciously makes a good feed. He would not recommend the cur- ing of corn. but would put immediately into the silo. The speaker then she the following varieties: Cloud’s Early Yel low, Compton's Earlyâ€"the most popular; Saitzer‘s North Dakota, agood corn to mix with Compton’s Early, and is of good quality; Red Cob Essilsge, not a good corn; the Mammoth Cubaâ€"the beat for Dent; Thoroughbred White Flint; Red Blaze and Stohl‘s Evergreen. To the ques- tion as to how late he would cultivate corn. the speaker said till ears could be plucked from the stalk. Stohi’s Evergreen is a good corn to grow for fodder being sweet and a good yield. Cultivate all corn deep and roots will go down. The address was greatly appreciated. TUBERCULOSIS m ANIMALS. The president then called upon Mr. E. S. Smith, V.S., Cambray. who gave an excellent paper on the above disease. bhe 556w 111 q, a-.. vâ€"-_ , _ was corn growing, the has then prlnclpal Implement. but) now "“ ' Lâ€" -â€"â€" A- 11.6. snd was listened to with marked attention.

The farmerswol’tc-day are ' E vitally interested in everything that can be produced on the farm. and they should make it a point to takeone cr two agricultural papers-no other business man would think oi achieving success without the aid of his particular trade paper. Farmers must maintain the fertility of the soil in these days oi keen rivalry. and must produce nothing but the best. Ex- psrlence went to show that to-day mixed {arming was the line to followâ€"oi course there were specialists here and there making a success of some one branch. but the general principle should be “Don't put all your eggs in one basket." By produc- ‘ ing the very best the highest market cc, would be obtained, and farmers woul not have to seek buyersâ€"they would come to them. Another thingâ€"the farmer should have a high ideal and not belittle his call- ing. No farmer can succeed unless his helpmate is careful and fro â€"indeed. rather than a helpmate. and the purse should be held in common. In concluding, Mr. Smith gave some good advice to the boys who wish to have the farm, saying that while there is always room at the top in the various professions. all are over- crowded and the struggle to climb the ladder is heart~breaking and generally unsuccessful. Let the young men ask themselves "flow msny oi Victoria's scm have become famous." Those who remain- ed ou the farm were better menâ€"many oi themâ€"than those who went into the pro- fessions. and morally stronger. His closing remark had reference to the teaching oi agriculture in the schoolsâ€"he thought the pupils should be taught something about rocks and soils. and learutodistingulsh between the destructive and beneficial birds and insects, but he was not prepared t: advocate the technical teaching oi agri- cultural subjects at present. T118 POUL'rur YARD. A very instructive and carefully prepared Baper on the above subject was readby Mr. . C. Trew. our well-known poultry fancier.
