NAT aT, nnn * Students Who Come ~~ From the Farms Written for the Ottawa Journal by Rev. James (1. Berry, M.A, B.D, Kin: bury. ¥ Out here in the country every day there pass by my Window groups: of boys and. girls of all ages, from the little ones upwards to strong well built young men and women, Some of them come from the village, but the majority of them come from the fds within a radius of us much as seve miles. Those whose homes are iarth- est away board in the village; man: of them drive morning and evening. It is a cold journey too, these Winter days, but it is a cheerful sight and sound when they converge in the vil: lage, and stable thelr horses and the sleighs. They are all making for the scheol which is a Public and High school, or to be exact, Continmiition High school in one, There the curriculum is a ford: able one. Languages, mathematics, science, history." These Iligh school boys and gids plod along at the course but find it very hard and many find it uncongenial. But their fathers and mothers with laudable ambition spur them on and make considerable sac- rifice in their behalf. Those who en- dure to the end, having surmounted the examination hurdles, have' still another year at a central High school from which they enter the Narmal College or the University, or some other training institution for one of the professions. acconntaticy, Hhusiness nursing. * a One cannot help thinking of these hove and. girls of the homes from which they come, of the land 'Which has been the background of their par- ni Jives, and is the background of their"own lives. We are very anxious _ to give them the opportunity of edu- cation, but are we forgetting this im- portant factor in their lives, the land. A. (0. Street, who once farmed in Cane ada, and who now farms in Wiltshive in the sonthwest of England, is never tired of advocating the unappreciaced place and value of the land in the ~ life of the nation. His words ave as tine of our land here as of Eogland. "It matters not to what political faith you cling. It is in 'material whether vou be certain, doubtful, arrozant, or humble, in that faith, It is unimport- ant whether you be townsman, coun- tyyman, rich man, poor man -- vou will be bound to realize that the land i= the one national asset which no mou can destroy." Now 'the bors and girls 1 speak of, have been close to-the land all their davs, and they have seen their fath- e:< and mothers there in prospous times and in adverse times. P2vhaps the hard and discouraging side of the farming has impressed their minds, and the changes of modern tife and some of its attractiveness have virn- ed them towards the opportunities which the High school offers. Some of these boys and girls must go forth and forward to a career but 1 think hat many of them would be glad 10 lay down some, at least, of their academ- ic studies and get instead preparation to call forth their gifts of ability, and to develop those tastes and fa'eats which have already showed (Lem: gelves, in their surroundings on the farm. - : N (Queer World | Honoraryan , Miss Helen Mayer, Germany's fencing champion has been invited to represent her.country at the Olympic Games despite her orig- in.

The minister, congratulating Can- adian aviation operators and their personnel "ou their magnificent. show- ing in 1935," said: "Their success is wholly due to the courage, initiative and tireless energy which they have given to the develop- ment of unsubsidized air services throughout Northern Canada and without which many thriving mining camps could not exist."- Commenting on the freight traffic handled, he said: "No, other 'country approaches these figures." He added that in a airmail tonnage Canada now carried "about twice the weight mail per head of population as the United States." Figures contained mm the statement tell this story: I'reight and express matter carried by air last year amounted to 26,439,- 224 pounds, compared with 14,441,179 in 1934 and 4,205,901 in 1933. ' Aviation companies carried 117,472 passengers last year compared with 105,306 in 1934 and 85,000 in 1933. The number of = "passenger miles" increased corréspondingly. Vital statistics show four opilts were killed in 1935, the same number as in 1934. In 1033 eight were killed. Six flying men were injured last year against seven in 1934 and seven in 1933. Seven passengers were injured last year, three in 1934 and six in 1933.

Wheat Storage _ Plan Advanced SASKATOON---A saving to Sask- atchewan farmers of from - $20,000 to $40,000 monthly would be made if wheat purchased by the Canadian Grain Board was stored in govern- ment-owned elevators at Moose Jaw and Saskatoon instead of in-line ele vators of. private companies, George A. Forrester, local grain merchant, stated here, : Appearing before the agricultural committes of the Saskatoon Board of tors at Moose Jaw. and Saskatoon were almost empty, while country clevators were bulging with 46,000, 000 bushels of wheat, 70 per cent, of "which was property of the Grain Storage gharges were being paid on these holdings. The two government-owned eleva- tors had a combined capacity of 10,- 000,000 bushels, he added, and esti- mated at present not more than 32,- 000 bushels of wheat were stored in both elevators. - The trouble with most folks, is that while they are worrying over the go- vernment's financial condition, they should be giving a little thought to their own.

"It I had my life to live over again I would" -- is what they Say, but they keep right on living the same. old The business of farming is yearly becoming more and more dependent upon facts that have been gathered regarding livestock and livestock management, crop production, soil management, disease and insect con- trol and business organization of the farming industry. Individual prob- lems involving one or more of these, and many other phases of agricul- ture, engage the attention of Ontario farmers from day to day. Through this column farmers may secure the latest information pertain- ing to_their difficulties. .

Qiiestion -- Do you recommend the use of Aluminum Sulphate or Iron Sulphate in our spray mixtures? Answer -- We have tested both these prepared the following typical prob- | ed grain over thie same grain that was grown on the same land with- out fertilizer. This increase, of course, would result from mixed fertilizer carrying phosphoric acid or from acid phosphate. This is of material importance to stock men who find their cattle chewing the bones and sticks. When' the cattle perform this way, it is clear evi- dence of lack. of phosphoric acid. Feeding the higher phosphate grain to the stock will undoubtedly furnish them N [port Broom Entire with the elenients which they are lacking so severely. The improvement in phosphéte noted in the grain is also found partially in the straw, where the phosphorus is deficient in the soil. Many people 'round 40 think they're substances for several years. There are objections to both which cause us to prefer the mixtures re- - commended in our spray calendar. Thie is not only my view, but also that of the other three men who helped to draw up the spray calen- dar. = P. R., Oxford Co. Question (A) -- I would like to know what analysis of fertilizer to use on spring grain (Barley and Oats) mixture. Soil is clay loam, one year old sod. (Alfalfa, Sweet Clover. and Timothy). This field was ploughed in September and had considerable fall cultivation. Answer -- I believe that you cannot do better than to sow two bags per acre of 0-12-6 or 2-12-6 fertilizer on this soll. This will give the young crop a start and supply it with suf- ficient readily available plantfood to give it good growth through to maturity. E . : Question (B) -- Does spring grain grown with the aid of fertilizer have a higher féeding value than grain grown on the same land without fer- tilizer. (1) mixed fertilizer? (2) acid phosphates?

Not until she visited President and Mrs. Roosevelt 'at the White House, gome days after 'her arrival, did she become known also as the wife of V. M.

' When she started the Bolshevik "shock troops". were still the vogue. Soviet women were giving their time fo the first five-year plan.'But stead- ily, the.emphasis on life has changed. It was only a few weeks ago that Sta- lin, himself, set the new motif. "Life has become more gay," the Communist leader said. ; "Ten years ago," Madame Karp- ovskaya said, "we had only seven coymetic factories.
