Selection of Seeds,

Tae minds of our farmers are now large- ly wceupied in the selection of seeds to be sown this year. Professor Saunders’ re- ports upon the Experimental Farms fur- nishea some valuable information in re- spect to this important poiat.

Respecting Ladoga wheat he reports that,-—

“In most parts of Ontario and some other localities East this variety seems very liable to rust, but from the northern parts of Ontario and Quebec and from Prince Edward Island the repurts are much more favorable. At the Central Farm nearly a!) the leading varities of spring wheat have given a poor yield, the Ladoga with its crop of 10} to 10} bushels per acre, weighing 564 ibs. per bushel, comparing favorably }with many others. At Nappan, N. 3., the yield has been 19 bushels per acre, weigh-. ing 62 lbs. per bushel; at Brandon, Man., 211-3 buehels, weighing 69} Ibs. per —— and at Indian Head, N. W. T., 30

ushels per acre, weighing 5 yunds per bushel. From Oatario eet one neal have been received, giving an average of 30} Ibs , from Quebec twenty-three, aver- aging 29} Ibs., Nova Scotia eight, with an average of 324 lbs., New Brunswick six, averaging 2956 Ibs, Prince Edward Is- land five, giving 594-5 lbs., Manitoba three, with an average of 31 1-3 lbs., Northwest Territories eleven, averaging 68} Ibs., and one report from British Col- umbia, where the yield is said to have been 634 Ibs. from 3 pounds of seed.

J. D, Melsaac, of Clear Spring, P. E. I., had 94 Ibs. from 3 lbs. sown and says: ** Sown 19th May, on new land ; harvested 30th Auguat; no rust, but considerable smut ; straw not as rank as White Russian. I cut it six days earlier than White Rus- ‘sian and in crop it was far ahead.” Sample weighed 67} bs. per bushel, sent just as threshed, without cleaning. John Me- Donald, of West St. Peter’s, had 90 Ibs. He reports: **Sown 16th May, on sandy loam ; harvested 29th August ; no rust or smut ; staaw fairly good; heavy growth ; 5 days earlier than Red Fife. Sample weigh- ed 61 lbs. per bushel.

As to two-rowed barley, Saunders reports :

“The yield per acre and weight per bushel of this promising variety of two- rowed bartey has been as follows :—Central Farm on different~ plots, from 24 to 404 bushels, weighing 52 lbs.; Nappan, N.S., ‘25 bushels, weighing 49} lbs.; Brandon, Man., 42} to 59} bushels, weighing from 50} to 51¥ tbs., and at Indian Head, N.W. T., 494 bushels, weighing 52; lbs. The average yield as given by forty-one reports from Ontario is 49 lbs.; of nine from Quebec 57 lbs.; five from Nova Scotia, 48 1-5 lbs. ; one from New Brunswick gives 23 lbs ; thirteen from Prince Edward Island, 57} lbs.; nine from Manitoba, 70} |bs.; twelve from the Northwest Territories,74 1-12 lbs. and four from British Columbia, 132 Ibs.” J. J. Wisner, Monaghan Road, P. E. IL, reports a yield of 90 lbs. from 3 lbs. sown. He says: ‘*Sown 17th May on clay soil (over rich, as one half of barley lodged badly); harvested 26th August, no rust or smut, straw dark on account of being lodg- ed.” Weight of sample, 494 lbs. John McDonald, West St. Peters, P. E I., had 80 lbs., and says: ‘*‘Sown 16th May on sandy luam ; harvested 29th August; no rust or smut; straw good.” Weight of sample, 504 ibs. per bushel.

Concerning a variety of barley called the Danish Chevalier, Professor Saunders says :

Professor

‘* The results of field crops of this variety on the Experimental Farms during the past season are as follows : Central Experi- mental Farm, from 234 to 25% bushels per acre, weighing from 51 to 52 Ibs. per bushel ; at Brandon, Man., 514 bushels per acre, weighing 53 lbs. per bushel ; and at Indian Head, N. W. T., 46 1048 bushei per acre, weighing 47j lbs. per bushel. The average yield, as far as givenin one hun- dred reports from Ontario, is 524 lbs.; of twenty-two from Quebec, 39} lbs. ; thirteen from Nova Scotia, 524 Ibs,; three from New Brunswick, 33} bs.; nine from Prince Ed- ward Island, 68} 1bs.; ten from Manitoba, 60} Ibs; twenty-five from the Northwest Territories, 774 ibs.; and one report from British Columbia, 33 Ibs.” Wellington Mutch, of Eldon, P. E. Island, had 100 Ibs. from 3 lbs. sown, and reports: ‘ Suwn 17th May, on light but fairly rich soil ; harvested 28th Auguat ; no rust or smut, atraw light and short ; very little barley sown here, but think this better than barley generally sown here.’ The weight of this sample was 50 Iba. per bushel. James Brown, of Stanley Bridge, P. E. I., had 85 lbs. and says: ‘*Sown 5th June, on heavy avil, summer fallowed ; harvested 9th Sep- tember ; no rust or smvt ; straw dark with

ae continued wet weather,’ Weight of sample £4 hens ” the old man said, 49} lbs.

of 1899, weighing 42 lbs. per bushel, but they did not succeed, on the whule, so well as was expected. At the Central Farm the yield was 26j bushels per acre, so 35 Ibs. per bushel; at Nappan, N,S., 51 bushels per acre, weighing 33 ibs, per bushel ; at Brandon, Man., the yield was

77 bushels, 14 Ibs. per acre, weighing 34 lbs. per bushel ; and at Indian Head 74 bushels, 30 lbs. per acre, weighing 40 lbs. per bushel. A. E. Dewar, of Southport, P. E. 1., had 120 lbs. from 3 lbs. sown. He ssys : ‘Sown, 12th May, on clay loam ; harvested 14th September; no rust, no smut, straw very stout, later than other kinds; Prize Cluster gave 108 lbs. from 3 Ibs. of seed. The season was the worst for vats we have had here for many years.’ This sample weighed 32 lbs. per bushel.

The results of field experiments with Prize Cluster oats during the past year are as follows :—At the Central Experi- mental Farm the yield has varied on dif- ferent soils (excluding those plots which were purposely sown late) from 37 bushels and 2 pounds to 28% bushels, weighing frou: 41 to 42 pounds per bushel. On the Experimental Farm at Nappan, N. 8., the yield has been 224 bushels per acre, weigh- ing 40 lbs. yer bushel, at Brandon, Man., 54 bushels 14 lbs. per acre, weighing 42} ibs. per bushel, and at Indian Head, in the Northwest Territories, 63 bushels per acre, weighing 46 lbs. per bushel. In time of ripening it’hasgenoraliy proved from two or, taree days to» week or more earlier than most other sorts. From P. E, Island the number of reports received were 24; aver- age yield, from 3 lbs. 65} lbs.; average weight per bushel, 40} los. The heaviest sample weighed 45} \|bs. per bushel, and was grown by J. Wisner, of Monaghan, P. E. L., who reports a yield of 70 ibs.» James Corcoran, of Piusville, Lot 4, P.E L., reports a yield of 180 lbs from 3ibs sown, and says: ‘Sown June 3rd, on sandy loam (date of harvesting not given); no rust, no smut, straw bright yellow. 1 will sow all these oats another season.’ The sample sent weighed a4 Ibs. per bushel. E. T. Wright, of Middleton, P.E.I., had a yield of 110 Ibs. from 3 lbs, of seed. He says: ‘Sown 6th May, harvested 25th August. Though our oats were all, or nearly all, rusted more or less, this was bright and clean—no rust. Straw medium length, and stronger and stiffer than some other varieties of white oats that I have grown. This is the earliest ripening variety of oats that we have sown, and is as heavy as any other white oat grown here. I| think this is the very best variety of white oats that we have tested on our farm; am well pleased with it.’ The sample sent weighed 39} Ibs. per bushel.

- Obituary.

On the morning of April 8th, James Mc- Donald, Esq., a universally respected resi- dent of Fort Augustus, peacefully passed away at his home, Webster's Corner,

Queen's County, in the 66:h year of his

age. Deceased, though a modest and un- assuming member of society, was always active im assisting anything intended for the general wea!, and was always foremost with help and advice to promote the wel- fare of his native parish church of which he was a trustee for nearly twenty y-ars. His long and painful illness, extending over three years, was borne with fortitude and in a truly christian spirit. A very re- ectable number followed his remains to Fort Augustus Church where High Mass was celebrated and the final rites perform- ed by the pastor, Rev. Allan J. McDon- ald, assisted by Rev James 2. McDonald, Kelly’s Cross. He leaves a sorrowing widow, seven daughters and one son, be- sides a large number of friends and rela- tives to mourn their loss. R.I P.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Scarcity of Fodder.

Sin,—The scarcity of cattle feed in this County is more prevalent than was some- time ago anticipated. A great many cattle have died and many others have got so weak that they had to be slaughtered. The scarcity of this commodity will be a serious loss to farmers, as the seed intended for sowing and planting will be used for to save the stock, and the high price of pota- toes and oats (the staple product of this County) will put it beyond the reach of the unfortunate farmer. Yetin the midst of this want and saffering there are farmers in this County who were blessed with an abundant crop of hay last season, who have hardened their hearts against their untor- tunate brother farmers, and refused time and again to sell their hay at less than twenty dollars a ton. On account of the delay of the Stanley in Pictou last week, some were under the stern necessity of giv- ing those oppressers their coveted prices. The circumstance above referred to reminds me of a story I heard from the lips of an eminent Divine :—

‘In some remote part of Scotland there lived a farmer who fared sumptuously every day, but he was generally considered an extortioner, as he would not sell his pro- duce until he got a famine price for it. On one occasion the price of wheat had declin- ed, and he made up his mind to keep it over another season ; and, as he anticipat- ed, the price had risen to suit his capacious maw, he made up his mind to sell, and accordingly he procured a ladder and mounted the stack to remove the thatch, when suddenly he fell through and was de- youred by rats aud snakes which had col- lected there for a feast on the extortioner’s grain, and they left nothing but the outer shell which was wisely and ingeniously re- served by these voracious reptiles to shelter them from the inclemency uf the weather.”

Morat.—Let others beware lest a similar

fate overtakes them. A Liperal FARMER. King’s Co., April 9th, 1891. ——__—_~ «> a

Cominc 1s WELL. —An Ottawa despatch sayn that the return books sent last April by the Department of Agriculture to the medical men throughout Canada, with the request that they should be returned ce: the date of the census with particulars of deaths during the year, are coming in very gen- erally and will enable the mortuary statis tics to be prepared much more accurately

than heretofore.
