camp should be able to earn and save
substantial amounts of money.
Mr. Maclaren also reports a trem-

Riversdale Lady
Killed On Monday
Mrs. Jack Moore of Riversdale, was
killed instantly on Monday afternoon,
when struck by a truck owned by Mr.
Winch of Paisley, and driven by his
son.
Mrs. Moore who resided in former
Riversdale Hotel building had hailed
the west-bound Listowel Transport,
driven by Frank Johnston, in order to
obtain a ride to Kincardine for her two
grand-children. Turning away from
the Listowel truck it is believed that
the lady, who was. about 72 years of
age, stepped directly into the path of
the oncoming Winch truck. In an un-
successful effort to avoid an accident,
the driver pulled sharply to the side,
smashing off a number of guard-rail
posts and over-turning the vehicle.
Coroner Dr. M. H. Gillies of Tees-
water was called to the scene, and an•
inquest is being called for next week.

The proper' choice of a variety is
important in connection with the pro-
duction of almost any crop in Canada.
This is particularly true of soybeans,
where adaptation to the conditions of
a particular.. locality is essential if 'a
variety is to give satisfactory results.
Soy bean varieties now being grown
in Canada vary in maturity from 100
to 140 days. It is obvious that a 140
day variety is useless in a district best
suited to a 100 day variety and vice
versa. Consequently, the choice of a
suitable variety is important and only
the best seed available of the chosen
variety should be used, says F. Dim-
mock, Division-of Forage Crops, Cen-
tral Experimental Farm, Ottawa.
It is a wise practice to inoculate the
seed with the proper culture teach year
no matter whether the land to be used
has grown soy beans before or not. In-
oculation is a form of insurance that
has proved profitable.
Then there are certain cultural pra-
ctices that are important. Spring pre-
paration of the soil should be thor-
ough. Soy beans are planted fairly
late, an opportune time to combat
weeds is before seeding is done. It
would be better to delay seeding a
little rather than plant in poorly pre-
pared land. Time of seeding is also
important and if the land is ready
should be done around the middle of
May. It is a common practice to seed
soybeans just before the corn is plant-
ed.
A light stroke with the harrow two
or three times after the beans are up
and before they arc six inches high will
do wonders in controlling weeds. This
should be followed by row cultivation.
Leave the surface level and do not
ridge up the rows, as this may inter-
fere with harvesting operations.
Row planting has been generally ac-
cepted as better than close drilling.
Rows 30 inches apart, with the plants
averaging 1 to 2 incheso apart in the
rows is about the right spacing.
If a farmer is undecided as to what
variety to choose for his locality, or
if he desires more detailed informa-
tion on the culture of soy beans, he
should without delay consult the Ag-
ricultural kepresentative Or get in
touch with the nearest "Experimental
