A Young Man Who Believes There Is a
Great Future for Huron asa Fruit
District -Orchards P. remise Great
Yield Th.s Year.
Wheel Ibu hist ). y ..t the ,icv I,.p-
umut of Huron c .nniy asa fruit -grow-
ing district comes to be written a
name very pn,minently mentioned
will be that of R. K. Sloan. Mr. Sloan
hos a fruit farm two miles below
Porter's Hill and another over at
Blyth, and if there i. • blearing for tbe
man who plants a tree, "Bob" -as his
friend. like to Nall him -has a very
happy cline ahead of him.
Mr. Sloan was horn to be a fruit-
, • Hie father, Andrew Sloan,
of Blyth, ie one of t he pioneer orchard-
ists of the di.trier. Some decades ago,
when the senior Sloan set out an
orchard on his firm at Blyth, people
laughed at him sod told him it would
never do hi:n any good ; but that
didn't stop hint, and naw for many
years he bas been taking pleascre and
profit from an or -bard in full hearing.
So the younger Sloan has always had
fruit trews about him. and with his
father's example before hien and' hid
own early expoience to guide him he
hie now heroine not only a successful
fruit -grower but one of the authorities
of the Province on all that pertains to
fruit culture.
Four years ago R. It. Sloan and ,his
brother, Dr. J. M., "branched out"
and bought a farm of 120 acres two
miles south of Porter's Hill. There
were about forty acres in apples when
the property was purchased, and since
then fortyacres more have been planted
in apples, plume, cherries, peaches and
pears, hut chiefly in apples of standard
winter varieties. The old orchard was
overhauled and modern methods of
-ulture introduced and good reeulta
are already seen. Last year. although
it was an "off" season, Mr. Sloan had
a fairly good crop and in a favorable
Beason he expects to get two of three
times as many apples from the same
trees. In addition to the Porter's Hill
property be has a farm of 150 acres at
Blyth on which is a smaller orchard of
Northern Spies. He intends to plant
more fruit on the Blyth place next
year. He is in the business not only
for love of orchard work but with an
eye to the pmflts, and he is well satis-
fled with resultSbo far.
The prospects for fruit in Huron
county this year are immense, Mr.
Sloan states. Spies, Baldwins, Rus-
sets, Kings, Wagners show a very
heavbloom. The Ben Davis also
has blossomed freely and in most places
the Greening shows well. The Duch-
ess and Blenheim Orange, two good
fall varieties, and indeed moat of the
fall apples have blossomed well. The
recent frost has done no appreciable
damage. Most growers had to leave
off the second spraying on account of
the wet weather, but otherwise con-
ditions have been favorable and grow-
ers have so far every expectation of an
abundant yield.
Mr. Sloan is a thorough believer in
a great future for fruit -growing in
this county. He points out that land
is available in Huron for fruit -grow-
ing . t • lower price than anywhere
else in the Province. The soil is the
right Bort, fairly light and easily cul-
tivated. Climatic and other condi-
tions are favorable for the growing of
• 11 tree fruits. Last winter when the
peach orchards of the Niagara district
(which the people down there call
"the garden of Canada") were badly
damaged by. frost the peach trees in
this district were frozen back only
slightly. In the southern counties
they have very little snow in the
winter to protect the roots, and the
result in much a winter se we have
just gone through is a good deal of
root -killing down there which we do
not have in this county.
As conclusive evidence of the ad-
vantages of. the lake belt in this
000nty for fruit -growing Mr. Sloan
points to the fact that A. Rougvie
and H. K. Revell, as well as himself,
have come in here from outside plates
and have invested in Iaod for orchard
purposes.
The product ix as good as can be
grown anywhere. Mr. Sloan quotas
Alex. McNeill, chief of the Fruit Divi-
sion at Ottawa, in the statement that
Huron cannot be beaten anywhere in
Canada f er growing apple..
Teeming the fruit is somewhat of a
difficulty for the grower at • distance
from a railway station. Mr. Sloan is
very anxioru to have an electric rail-
way built through Goderich township.
Then, be says. "we'd have this
country just Morning."Outside of
this, transportation ilities in this
district are good, with the special ad -
ventage of lake freight facilities at
Goderich.
Summing it all up. Mr. Sloan con-
siders apple-growingone of the roost
profitable lines of f..rm industry.
Teo acres of gond bearing orchard on
• hundred -acre farm," be gays, "are
worth more than •l1 the rat of the
farm put together." However, as w
paint. not, fruit -gr wing is not lbs
only line of agrkeitura in wbMh
Huron may excel. For atoak-rni ing

craze." "We need the young men in
thiol county," he says. They are leav-
ing good opportunities in old Ontario
in any line of agriculture they wish to
follow, and if they would only put the
same energy into their work here as
they would do in the West they would
do well for tbemselees and they would
make this a magnificent county. Mr.
Sloan has firsthand knowledge of the
West, having been out there twice,
and having come back to Huron de-
cided that this was the place for him.
Mr. Sloan's enthusiasm for fruit cul-
ture has communicated itself to others
in his neighborhood, and orchard -
owners generally are paying more at-
tention to their trees, and a number
are planting new orchards. One
neighbor, James Sterling, of the 8th
concession, last year planted twenty
acres in additi p3 his old orchard of
six acres ifell satisfied with the
prospect!.. .
In addition to his practical experi-
ence as a grower, Mr. Sloan has had
the benefit of a course at the Ontario
Agricultural College and bolds the
diploma fora two-year course at that
institution. He has also taken 0. A.
C. short courses in fruit. He is $ di-
rector of the Ontario Fruit Growers'
Association and also takes an interest
in military matters, holding the rank
of lieutenant in the 33rd Regiment.
BAPTIST ANNIVERSARY.
Church Formally Dedicated to tbe Wor-
ship of God.
The anniversary and dedication ser-
vices in the Baptist church on Sunday
marked the beginning of anew era in
the lite of that congregation. After
working energetically for several
months the different organizations of
the congregation raised sufficient funds
to Dover the cost of new church pews,
seats for the choir, and other furnish-
ings. The work of placing the pews
was done by church members free of
charge and the appearance of the audi-
torium at the service last Sunday
evening when the new pews were ded-
icated must have Leen very gratifying
to the pastor, Rev. J. Pollock. and his
loyal congregation. The speaker for
the day was Rev. W. E. Norton, D.
D. of Toronto, superintendent of the
Ba fist home mission board.
The morning subject was "The
Ideal Life," that being taken from
the 8th chapter of John at the twenty-
ninth verse : "And He that sent me
1s with me ; the Father bath not lett
me alone; for 1 do always those things
that please Him." Dr. Norton im-
pressed upon hie hearers the impor-
tance of having an ideal. To at-
tain to an ideal under our present
limitations was almost nn impossibil-
ity ; nevertheless, it was a good
thing to have an ideal. Artists
strove to put their ideals . •t canvas
and in this way all the great master-
pieces of art were produced. All good
things were produe4d in an • tient to
reach an ideal. The Wee' f..r the
Christian man is the Christ. 1;brist's
ideal life was to please Ood; n .re is to
be like Christ, and hence to please
God. We should remember that God
does not judge our lives by what we
do. He looks at the motive and pays
attention to why we do it. "Damtbie
thing please God?" is the question we
should ask regarding all our activity.
We should follow this rule and leave
a good example for the younger 'gen-
eration that is to follow us. Ood is
the only one whom we should try to
pleas,, se God alone understands us.
Christ has taught ns by His own life,
not simply what man ought to be, but
what man may he. if we say that we
cannot live that life we are putting
Christ in a wrong position. if lbs
I.otd Jews Ovaab•me temptation be-
cause He wee God, then He was not

life.
At the close of tbe sermon, the duet,
"Face to Face," was sung very accept-
*hh- by Mesdames Humber and Pol-
lock.
Rev. Dr. Norton's evening discourse
was from Mat tett : "Set your affec-
tions on things above, not on things
on the earth" (Col. 3: 2). After an
earnest and Incid exposition from the
preacher, an impressive dedication
service was conducted by the pastor
of the church, Rev. John Pollock, con-
cluding with the dedication prayer by
Dr. Norton.
The choir was s listed in the musi-
cal portion of the service by Miss Mc-
Clinton. who sang a solo, "The City
Eternal," and by Miss Hildred McColl
and Jas, F. Thomson, who rendered
a duet, "Lead, Kindly Light."
The anniversary tea and concert on
Monday evening was attended by a
good number and was a very enjoy-
able event. The musical program was
Niven by Knox church choir, under
the direction of J. B. Hunter, their
services being given gratis as their
contribution to the funds to meet the
cost of the new pews, and judging by
the amount of applause which the
rendering of the various numbers was
accorded the efforts of the singers
were heartily appreciated. in addi-
tion to several choruses by the choir
the program included a quintette
number by Misses Richardson. Nairn
and McColl and Messrs. Thomson
and Blackstone ; duet numbers by
Miss Richardson and Jas. F. Thom-
son, Misses Nairn and Richardson and
Miss Hildred McColl and Mr. Thom-
son, and solos by Misses Kids Stod-
dart, Hildred McColl, Jas. F. Thom-
son, Donald Clark and Bert Cute At
the conclusion of the musical program
letters of congratulation were read
from a former pastor and his wife -
Rev. C. R. and Mro. Jones, of Ridge -
town -and from Rev. Geo. E. Ross,
ppaasstor of Knox church. Goderich.
Thi. was f Homed by an interesting
proceeding when two little maidens
representing the junior and senior
B. Y. P. U. organizations preseuted
Rev. Mr. Pollock and Mr, J. B.
!Hunter each with beautiful bouquets
of flowers.
On the whole the anniversary pro-
