In his [rst 11931363.}. qpqech._ two‘ years agq, Colonel Price. at. the rinse of hist budget speech. departed from finan- cial matters to pay a tribute to the leader of the House. and to suggest. a little. more charity and regard for puhlir interests in the rondurt of the Opposition. He said in part: "Honorable members will recall when We orrupied some '25 seats over in the far corner of this House. and what a tremendous light. was put up against the government or. the day in many things it. was try- ing to do. The present prime min- ister. sitting then as leader of the party. was on the job hour after hour, and just as good at two o‘clock in the morning as at three in the afternoon. (Applause). He. was a fighting leader of an aetive. virile Opposition that made no apologies. .’.\pplause‘.

This was a ref- erence in the phraseology of the prime minister’s amendment which did. indeed. leave the Progressive Leader in an awkward position in event of voting against it.

The Duke of Ahorcorn fold a very good story at a public meeting in the north of Ireland some time ago“ which has the merit of being true. An armed Sein Foinor on tho run, having crossed the Six Counties border at Strabane. was arrested by the Illster Specials. Such an im- portant capture necessitated an armed guard at the barracks. Now as had luck would have it. all the specials were fixed up to partici- pate in an important football match that very afternoon. The difficulty was solved by some. genius suggest- ing that the, prisoner be asked to referee the. matchâ€"which he agreed to do. The result was that he was kept under observation all the time, marched back to barracks after the match. and no one‘s pleasure or enjoyment was interfered with. It is only in a sporting country like Ireland that such an incident could occur. Advertise in The Chronicle. It Pays. WHY SPOIL THE FUN? THE DURHAM CHRONICLE Following the revived imerest ol’ the last few years in the use of lime on soils, several methods of ap- proximately estimating the “lime requirements” of soils have been employed, and among these is “Soil- lex.”. A Soiltex outfit consists of a mailing case about 2%”x4%" con- taining a collapsible tube of indicat- or, a booklet of waxed papers, a col- or chart and sheet of directions. It can therefore, be carried in the pocket. he method of using is as follows: “Tear 06‘ a piece of the waxed paper and fold lengthwise to? form a trough. With a clean knife-. blade place about as much of the soil as may be held on a ten cent piece in the paper trough. Dump the solution from the tube on to the soil until it is saturated, and one Ior two drOps remain in the trough. After about a minute, tip the pa- per slowly (so that the liquid may run from the soil) and carefully draw some of the clear liquid away from the lower encl 0f the soil wnh the knife blade. Compare the color of this clear extract with the color chart. sunntivd, and read therefrom the soil reaction and the amount of lime recommended.” says H. S. Iliammond.

Locality and season must govern the final choice of varieties, and it is obvious that the same varieties cannot be grown for silage in East- ern Ontario and Quebec as can be grown in Southwestern Ontario, where the season is ‘longer. Suitable varieties for silage pur- poses in the longer seasoned dis- tricts of Eastern Ontario and One- bec are found among those that mn- ture in Southwestern Ontario. These include, Learning, Wisconsin No. 7. Bailey, ‘lolden Glow and White Cap Yellow Dent.
