Farmers - Attention WANTED: A number, of progressiye farmers hi Western districts who would like to set out a commercial block of Red Rasp- berries, either for your local trade or for shipping to recommended city dealers. Recent Ontario-Quebec production figures, prices at 90c per quart and dealer reports 'would indicate short supplies everywhere. To encourage a limited planting of new high yielding Patches, a well -known nursery is sending a special representative of many years experience in commercial production to personally interview and educate interested' farmers in raspberry, culture. This should result in higher unit yields, longer patch life, less hand labor and when translated into dollars at normal prices a relatively high ratio of profit is assured. Because -of the limited supply of good planting material, book- ings can only •be made for FALL PLANTING 1947, limited to one acre. If genuinely interested in berry groidng as a sideline to farm- ing, write Box 457, campbellford, Ontario, on or before July 29th, giving location of your farm. Our specialist will call later and completely analyze the business, soil requirements and preparation, up-to-date cultural practices, home markets and surplus shipping, cost of planting, estimated yields and profits per acre.

Boyle I had occasion last week to ride from the City on the train, The trip is quite a distance, and although I would normally ride it sitting up in the coach, I decided this time to buy a berth. I sat in the smoking car and tried my best to appear casual as if this luxury of riding in the Pullman class was a thing I was Most accus- tinned to. I carried it off so well that a man even asked me what firm I was travelling for. When I told him I was- n't a traveller, but just a plain ordin- ary farmer, he looked surprise. Then he told me how his ambition was to become a farmer. He had a plan all neatly laid out in his,mind for a patch of ground . .and he was going to raise chickens and food for himself and his family. He also told me he was travelling for a firm and that he slept on trains about four nights out of every week. He had in his time gone from Halifax to Vancouver some twenty times, He still wanted to buy a small farm and settle on it. I retired to the berth and then the struggle started, I felt like an elephant. trying to turn around in a rabbit hutch. My legs were all caught• up ht knots and the change fell out of my pants pocket and I almost strangled myself with my shirt, Finally, I man- aged to get under the. covers. It WAS a hot night. That berth was a prison of hot air and I turned a gad- get and a blast of air suddenly swept in, Then tried to Sleep. The per- Stitt above the kept twisting and torn- ins and the springs jiggled.
