We were pleased to note the reâ€" marks made by Mr. Jos. A. Snell, of Saskatoon, in the Review, and would say that it is largely those old time friends we have in mind, when we write current events.

That beautiful Christmas tree is again to the fore. Two other names have been given me as the decorating arâ€" tists, Messrs Walter Aldcorn and 4. P. McMillan. Honor to honor is due is a fine motto and we gladly make the additions. Too many cooks did} not spoil the soup this time. It cerâ€" tainly was a beauty.

Climatic and soil conditions of this section seem to be distinctly favorable for Peas. During the past summer, a test on fertilizing peas was conducted on the farm cf J. H. Menary, Markâ€" cale, by the Grey Department of Agâ€" riculture in coâ€"operation with the Department of Chemistry, Ontario Agricultural College. While the gains were by no means phenominal, they were a good indication of what can ‘be done in improving pea yields in this section. Where Mr. Menary‘s peas were grown, the soil was graâ€" velly loam.. It was in sod in ©1934. The treatment and yields in this ed of trying out 3â€"10â€"5 fertilizer at two rates one and two bags per acre. Yields were as follows: Treatment Yield per acre Gain 0 30.0 bus 250 38.3 bus 8.3 bus 315 43.3 bus 13.3 bus The cost would run from $3.81 to $5.72 per acre. Of Course, all the fertility would not be used up in the barley crop that was grown. If the barley wus‘ seeded to grass or grass and legumes the seeding down would obtain a great deal of help from this added! fertility. Mr. Halbert‘s neighbors | will be especially interested to learn of the results of the test. | in reaction. All of these conditions made it a favorable location for growing barley of fine quality. The barley crop of 1935, succeeded _ a grain crop in 1934. _ The particular test on Mr. Halbert‘s farm, consistâ€" On the farm of W. J. Halbert, a barleyâ€"fertilizing test of considerâ€" able interest was conducted by the Department of Chemistry, Ontario Agricultural College in coâ€"operation with the local Department of Agriâ€" culture, for Grey County. Mr. Halber‘s soil was a gravelly loam, low in nitrogen and none too well supplied with phosphorus and potash, but it was alkaline or sweet Oat growers of the Flesherton secâ€" tion will be especially interested in the outcome of this test. It follows very closely the test in oats, conducâ€" ted on the farm of McLoughry Bros., Markdale, in 1932, when 2126 ferâ€" tilizer made a gain of 11 bus. per acre in Oats, when applied at the same rate. AN INTERESTING BARLEY TEST Results obtained on Mr= Allen‘s test are: for no fertilizer, 42.3 bus. per acre and for 250 Ibs. of 2â€"12â€"6, 56.4 bus. per acre, or a gain of 14.1 bus. per acre. The fertilizer at 250 Ibs. per acre, costs about $3.75. Dept. of Agriculture Conducts Fertilizer Tests Other happenings in this locality: An old Scotch lady, who had not been feeling very well for some time, reâ€" ceived as a Christmas remembrance a calendar from the undertaker, and she said, "Na, na, I‘m no makin‘ a date with you yet." One kindly old father who has grownâ€"up daughters at home this winter, says he cut five cords extra wood, just in case. Then we have the young man who goes often and stays long with his lady friend, who kindly fills the back of car with dry wood, to make sure of comfort and a welcome ! And â€" so the winter is passing by. Many of the men attended Mrs. Snell‘s sale in Egremont last week, and report good prices, for live stock especially, and cash at that. So surely times have improved, and we start this New Year with a cheer ! WHAT FERTILIZER FOR OATS? George Black Sr, slipped on the house | steps, badly spraining his ankle from which he has suffered much. Not to be outdone, Mrs. Archie Ferguson, con. 14, while thawing out a frozen water pipe at the cistern, slipped and fell on the edge of the cistern, breakâ€" ing some ribs. Now all ye old boys and girls should go very carefully in the winter. FERTILIZERS FOR PEAS THE DURHAM REVIEW ;:;;,;. w'l If you have something you are not Yield per acre U8ing, why not sell it?

Durâ€" ham had scored the only goal and always had a margin on the play, but could not make it count. In the last period their superiority was evidenced by results as well. _ Durâ€" ham got 3 more goals while Chesley was blanked, final count being 4â€"O.

Wm. Nichol and Jas. Burt were applicants for caretaker of the town hall; the former got it at $100 yearâ€" by.

Koch and Frank Mecliraith were | reâ€"appointed auditors at $25 each. | 15 YEARS AGO Taken from Review fyle, Jan. 13|21 Mr. Murray Ritchie has purchased the A. Ashley farm formerly owned by Mr. A. A.

Again the excursion was well patronized locally, about 125 supporters acâ€" companying the boys over.
