NEW ANNAN AND VICINITY Most of the farmers in this com- munity are intent on finishing up. Even though the spring was late, apparently seed time is being mm-

pleted about the same time as prev- ious years.

A heavy electric storm swept over this pan oi the province between the hours of l and 5, Wednesday morning. It is reported that two barns belonging to Mr. John Hughes. Norboro, were totally destroyed, for which he has the sympathy of the surrounding vicinity. No other losses have been reported up to this time.

Mrs. lsobeile Moase, who has been visiting he;- old friend, Mrs. Joseph Schurman, Surnmerside. returned to her home Wednesday evening.‘ _

Miss Mamie Mill, ‘Baltic. spent Hruesday evening in New Annan.

Ali clovers are looking well and all indications point to a good average hay crop. Seeding was fully two weeks late owing to cold weather and ih was the case also in the Maritime Provinces. In British Columbia nearly all the crops are late but the outlook has become prom ising. Details ‘follow:

PEOVINCE OI‘ DNTABIO

Owing to excessive rains in the early spring, followed by a protracted period of cold raw weather, seeding in most districts is now only being completed. In Southwestern Ontario the season is more advanced but there has been very little growth and the whole province is greatly in need of warm weather. Corn and root planting is general. Tobacco planting has mended and while their will be an increased acreage in Norfolk County, where only the flue cured variety is grown there will be a substantial decrease in Bsex where Burley has been the chief crop. Fruit trees and bushes came through the winter well. ‘mere was a heavy bloom and very little frost damage.

Professor‘ R. A. Derrick, o"f the Eperimentalfarm}. Ottawa, gives some intereatingnotes on this plant. _ ‘ _ ‘

‘ The flour made from the seed‘ is in ‘high favor for making griddle cakes, and there is a fsirly__steady demand for it‘._'l‘he grain is excel- lent poultry feed, and I can be used for stock, but is not 0f ‘such value as oats, wheat or barley. ' Buckwheat will thrive on ‘compar- atively popr, light land, and when plowed under its thick succulent. stems decay -quickly, increasing the supply of plant food and improving the physical condition of the soil. Be- cause itwithstands acidity, of the soiipand lack of drainage, it can be grown on land which rejects other crops. _~\_ .‘

A good pracJce is to clean cul- tivate, to destroy growing weeds, be- fore sowing; afterwards the buck- wheat. will act as a. smother crop, and prevent the development of any weeds that may remain. _ Buckwheat may be cut green, as a soiling crop, and a further usefulness is indicaxed when we are told that it is one of thebest honey producing plants.

THE FAKMEBJS LIFE . v

Sandy Frazer, of the Farmers’ Ad- vacate. is not only a; farmer, but a philosopher-a combination that is perhaps commoner than is supposed. He recently Moralized on the case of Miss Marion Talley a New York sing- _er with an income of a hundred thousand dollars, who has given up becoareer to go farming. As the ladyis only twenty three years old, Sandy has his .“dOO_l4"_ as i» the wisdom of her change, but/his niece who is on a visit from the States puts before him a few matters that con-- siderabiy after his viewpoint. . "Tl-nerds about a million reasons why only a sensible person would wish _to_ spend their days in the country rather than in the city“ says Jennie. "First its interest as Natura school; where one learns every day, and if not a dunce entire- ly, comes out wiser and better ‘than one went in. -

Secondly. It is an independent life. For the farmer depcds upon. him- self alone for his living; as times go, and particularly in the big cities, the worker is at the mercy of inexorable economltf law, which demands the

"Farm _ suffers more ‘ma: us»: saw mow-v. and tau u partly due to the fact‘ thatiivgbt- ing isususlly ‘done bylmeans ofoil lamps or lanterns, and sirsw and ‘hay are: always ‘pl-gent. There are also very insdequatameansof fight- ing fire on the farm, ‘as a rule, so that a fire once started has matters pretty much all its own way.‘ Insur- ance never covers the value ,0! loss, and replacement is becoming more expensive, consequently every means of prevention should be carefully con- sidered; ' a "

‘The stove‘ is a serious source of fires. Chimneys and flues should be properly constructed and cleaned frequently, Stove pipes ‘should run as far as possible from the walls, and walls protected where necessary by sheet metal or other lnconibustible substance. ‘when ’ _ through walls or floors, the "thimble pr safels better set in a.’ concrotebiock. ‘The fire should not bestarted with ker- osene, ssmsny accidents have" been caused by this.

Watch Your Foxes Su mmer Diet

The summer diet is a most important one, great care should be exercised in selecting the proper foods. Meat feeds should be reduced to a minimum and supplemented by cereals and‘ vegetables. IMPERIAL FOX BISCUITS fed dry and IMPERIAL PUPPY FOOD with milk adder] make the ideal summer cereal ration for both adults and These two highly nourishing foods ensure a bal- anced ration together with an abundance of minerals and most valuable Vitamines. IMPERIAL FOODS keep the foxes in good flesh and make them generally healthy and active. "IMPERIAL eliminates premature shedding generally caused by excessive meat feeding o_r an unbal anced diet, and make for better pelts when prune.
