The Western Agvioutiural Convention

ANNUAL MEETING AT CAVENDISH

Nuastion of an Experimental Farm for P. E. Island D’seussel,

EVENING SESSION.

The evening session of the Convention was Opened by William Laird, E-y., who gave & very interesting deseription «f his recent visit to the Ceutral Experimental Farm at Ottawa, and set forth, in vigorons language, the importance of an Experi- mental Station for this Province. He re- ferred to che fact that the one great interest of Prince Edward Island is agriculture, and argued that the promotion of agriculture ought to be one of the main and special object of its Government and Legislature. The Stock Farm does not give satisfaction to the country. But an Experimental Station is needed. When he visited the

polities aside. Accumpauicd by his fiend, Mr. Dickieson, of the Uitawa Civil Service, he «isited the Experimental Farm—which contains 470 acres and is beautiful for situ- ation—and calle i upon Professor Fletcher, the entomologist. He found that gentle-

sta>les, where some very fine cattle were feeling on ensilage—some with gusto and some as though they didn’t care for it, There were eight excellent bulls of differ- eut breeds, and the Devon and Holstein cows were splendid animals of their kind. These were more to Mr, Laird’s taste. The pigs were not much to look at —not better than those to be found on ow own stock farm. But the grain grow- int in the tields looked better than that of any other farm he had seen this year. Ex- periments were being carried on in every department—some with success, some with- out success. He considered the farm a | great benziit to the agriculture of Canada, and he Jeft it high'y pleased. The ques- tion arises Whether the Dominion Govern- mnvnt sould also establish an experimental atation in Prince Edward Island? This is ar agricultural province. Therefore, spe- cial eff rts should be made to improve our! mathuds of farming. ‘The attention of our start young men should be tnrned to the, farm. inducements should be held out to

them to stuly the science of agriculture.

For this purpose instruction should b» pro-

vided at the Prince of Wales Coliege and

zo Experimental Farm in connection there- | with. {f this were done, it is probable

that our youth would return home, practi-

cally educated and determined to follow | the avocation of their fathers. It might be! well to have two agricultura! professors | in the Province. Farmers are the bone’ and sinew of the country; and _ public money would be much better employed in

educating young men to be farmers than in | educating thein to be preachers and doctors! aud lawyers.

In respect to this question we should cast politics aside and advocate measures that will promote the best inter: | ests of the country. Farmers want an ex- perimental farm and they require the tun- nel, and they should exert their influence to obtain these things. William McNeill Simpson complimented

the experiments which wore being conduct- ed at the experimental farms at Ottawa and Nappan. The latter farm does not benefit | this Province so much as it ought to, be- cause the conditions of soil, etc,, are differ- ent from what they are here. We ought, therefore, to have an experimental farm for ourselves. There can be no question about the fact that our system of agriculture must be changed, if the Province is to continue tu prosper. In selling oats and potatoes we are selling too much of our soil. We cannot afford to do this at the rate of for- mer years. In Connecticut and other States experimental farm stations have long been established with good results; and we must, if we desire to keep up in the race, have an experimental farm here at which the information and instruction required may be obtained. It is impossible for pri- vate enterprise to supply this need.

H. A. Stewart said that he was highly pleased with Mr, Laird’s address. It is, no doubt, true that every farmer should, to some extent, experiment for himself. But there are experiments which the pri- vate farmer cannot possibly afford to carry on witb success. The Stock Farm has seen the best of its days. We want a farm at which the youth of the country can obtain practical lessons in agricuiture. He be- lieved that if the Dominion Goverament were asked for it they wvuld grant a sum for the establishment of such a farm in this Province. But if we do not ask, we shall not obtain.

Arthur Simpson thought that we could not demand a grant from the Dominion Government for the establishment of an expertmental farm—as a right. — Bui that Government might, perhaps, be induced to

assist in the establishment of an experi- He said

Laird on the vecasion of his recent visit to Ottawa and complimented him highly on his vivid description of the Centra! Experi- mental Farm. He thought the farmers should exert their influence to see if they could not have an experimental farm here.

James Ramsay agreed with the previous speakers who svid that the usefulness of the Government Stock Farm is past. But he feared that the Local Government iz not financially in a position to establish and maintain an experimental farm station. If by any means pressure could be brought

Mr. Laird upon his address, and spoke of 000

| ships to ply between that country and China

to induce them to give us an experimental farm, a great boon would be obtained for the Province; and if a movement to that ena were begun by the Convention the meeting would not be held iu vain.

James Laird thought that an expensive experimental farm is not needed. Such a farm on «a small seale is all that is required, and that is feasible enough. The Dominion Governinent have ample means.

W. J. Simpson thought that if too many demands for experimental farms, ete , were made upon the Dominion Government, the Tunnel Scheme — which is of the hghest . import- ance—would be prejudiced. The Gov- ernment would argue that the people of P. EK Island are asking for too much. But the need of an experimental farin is feit. The sooner we begin to agitate for it, in the press and elsewhere, the better. It is true that the Province is not in a position to spend a great deal of money in an experi- mental farm. But the appointment, by the late Government, of an agricultural pro- fessor was a step in the right direction, and it might, without great expense, be followed up by such additional instruction as would be of great advantage to the Province. He thought it would be well to have an additional professor to travel through the country and wake up public opinion in respect to the necessity which exists for im- proved methods of farming. Agricultural meetings are not now so largely attended as they ought to be. Something is wanted to rouse the farmers up in this respec:.

George Simpson argued that the Convention should take steps to bring the question of the establishment of an experimental tarm before the Public and the Government... But an experimental farm for this Province could not be a partnership affair between the Dominion and the Island. He thought that the proposed farm should be under the control of the Provincial Government and that another Agricultural professor ought to be obtained in connection with it and the Prince of Wales College. The farming interests are not now receiving a fair proportion of the benefits of Government expenditure for education, etc. This being the fact, farmers who will have to pay the bulk of the taxes when taxes are levied, should ask for a larger share. If means were provided by which one or two young farmers out of every settlement could be educated as farmets and returned to their farms to carry out the improved methods, and show their neighbors how to do it, the whole Province would be greatly benefitted.

After some further discussion, James Ramsay, Esq., from a committee appointed for the purpose, submitted the following resolution which was thereupon moved by Arthuc Simpson, Esy., seconded by S. R. Black, Esq , and unanimously adopted :

Whereas, Agriculture is by far the most important industry ia this Province,

And Whereas, It is essential in order to the gsuccecssul preservation of this industry that instruction in the practical agriculture should be known to our p2op‘e and especially to the young generation:

Therefore Resolved, That in the opinion of this convention, the Government of this Province would be justified in maintaining an agricultural department in the Prince of Wales College, and a'so in substituting an experimental station for the present Govern- ment Stock Farm even at the risk of 4 moderately increased expenditure.
