No. By demoristrstlous? Yes. The truth of the above statement was realized in canada many years B30. and led to the establishment of the Division of Illustration Stations by the Dominion Government in 1915. This Division is comparatively MW. yet it has proven to be very valu- able for demonstratfng the chief findings of the Experimental Farms system. In order that the neighbours in the vicinity of an Illustration Sta- tion may have an ol7P0rtunitY °f visiting the Station and learning at first hand of the various demonstra- tions carried on. a Field Day ls held. By a. Field Day is meant a seneral gathering of the neighbours in the vioiuiiy of the stsiion on sn ai>- pointed day. In Prince Edward Is- land these meetings have been very popular, the average attendance at thirteen Field Days last year being 76. At each Field Day ia systematic survey of the Station is made by su present, the method ofrrowins each crop is explained and various fertiliser tests examined. Live stock and poltry demonstrations are held on most stations and garden and home beautification schemes dealt with. Usually at each Field Day there are a number of addresses given on special agricultural topics by men efficient in their chosen work. These lectures are all the more practical when lt is realized that the atmosphere is right, and material for demonstration is at hand. Each year sees some new demon- strations as well as the continu- ance of the older ones. A. new feature in 1002 on a number of the stations will be a pastiu-e fertilizer experiment, while on others the effect of varying amounts of super- phosphate and potash will be illus- trated. Economy in the use of coin- mericlai fertilizers and the value of barriyard manure will be stressed at each Field Day held this year. Many live stock and poultry demonstra- tions will be given. Field Days serve another very important purpose in that they bring the neighbours together and afford an opportunity to discuss matters of mutual concern: there- fore, when thc time comes for the annual Field Day on your nearest Illustration Station, lay aside your work a"` attend it. You will be assured not only of a profitable afternoon, but an enjoyable one as well. You will be welcome. us.) Enos, it was found. belonged to that vast group known as the as- teroids-plarietolds is a better word-whose orbit, lies between Mars and Jupiter and which are regarded as the fragments of a.. planet spoiled in the making. The first of these asteroids Ceres, was discovered in 1801. and for some years it was the only member of the group known; but the vast im- provement of the rneans of re- search has brought the number of asteroids to about 1.200. Most of them are extremely small, the majority less than fifty miles across. But what they lack in size, they make up for in interest. For in- stance, the gravitational pull of Jupiter has reached out and taken captive ten of these little fellows, five of which precede him by two years in his orbit. while the other five follow at the same distance _behind And many of the others itnstead of following out a properly defined orbit of their own as well ibehaved planetolds ought, have a furtlve habit of bobbing "ii in un- expected places rather than in their calculated paths: wherefore astronomers dub them ‘the vermin oi’ the sky.” And now two of these wandering bodies threaten to break Eros's re- cord for closest intimacy with our earth. One, the "Delporte-object," discovered by Prof. Delporte of Brussels, is calculated to have passed within 12,000,000 miles of the earth. Its small size, perhaps one or two miles in diameter, had evaded discovery up to the pre- sent. But no sooner had we grown ac- sclentiflc world was delighted to customed to our new neighbor than Prof. R/elnmuth of I-ieidelburg an- door neighbor in the planatory nounces the discovery (on April 2'lth of this year) of another pla- netoid. similarly small, and if its path is truly calcuated it may come within 3,000,000 miles of the earth.

CHICKS NOT HATCHING AS GOOD AS USUAL Correspondence and reports re- ceived at the Poultry Division, Ex- perimental Farm, would indicate that chicks this spring were not hatching as plentlfully as usual, states F. C. Elford, Dominion Poul- try Husbandman. l-Iatches as low as 10% of the total eggs are report- ed. while 20% and 25% hatches are not uncommon. This condition seems to be fairly general through- out the whole of Canada. These poor hatches along with the late season may have a decided effect upon the egg production, next winter. Chicks generally also are later than usual, the result of the very backward spring, especially is this so in Ontario and the East. 4 flower 'in June only bloom once seasons.
