number, ,were in their prime mood
and gave >a : splendid.'literary ` dis-
play of talent, which hitherto had
been muzzled..Severa7 of the ,speak-
ers made their maiden speech and
were applauded for their effort. A
few waxed eloquent , nnd' -gave evi-

discretion. The judges gave their
decision.,iii favor of the negative,
• that the rural snail was of more ben-

We• left Toronto on the 27th of

They have some lovely parks here.
From Vancouver we went to Vic-
toria.. It was a clear, bright, sunny
day and the trip on the -boat was
lovely. The sea was ' califs. Victoria
is a beautiful city and the air is
clear and warns. They have beautiful
gardens andeparks and many houses
or mansions are built similar to
those in the old country.
We left Victoria and went over to
Seattle. A beautiful city it is, built.
on the side, of ':a mountain. They
.have one of the, highest, buildings in,
the country, outside of New York.
It 42 stories high. At Victoria we

parks, lawns and gardens. The flow-
ers were coming in bloom. In all of
the cities they have been playing

Chas. ' Johns, of : Elimvilie, Gets In
i dine. of $150 a Cow- From His
Grade Heid. '
The London Free Press of Satur
.day contains the following: "If there
is any occupation in which'brains
count, it certainly is in that of farm-
ing; Men living alongside of each
'other get results as wide " apart as
the poles; or at least as far apart
as profit and loss are from each
other. 'One man grows excellent
fields• of grain, while his neighbor
has very' inferior crops. One .farmer
sells a thousand dollars' worth of
hogs and is more than pleased with
his profits, while his neighbor gets
rid of his. hogs while they are still
lean and unfinished and complains
there 'is no money in' pigs anyway.:
In fact, there is: no money.: in farm-
ing nowadays because he has to pay
so much for everything he has to
buy. •
Two farmers from adjoining, town
-
'ships, recently niet and discussed
dairying. One said he was going to
sell his cows because they were so
unprofitable, and the other felt like
increasing his herd because they'
were mortgage -lifters. A good ex-
ample. of
x-ample>of the latter class is Mr. Chas.
Johns, of Elimville, Usborne Town-
ship. He pins his faith to grade Hol-
steins as good.milkers. During the
pkt,
at year he has milked, eight cows
and they gave him an'' income -of`
$1,200, that is $150 per cow.
The cream was sent to the cream-
ery, and thus he had no special ad
vantage over any other farmer. Mr.`
Johns began five or six years ago to
make a: study of the subject of mill:
production, and the result is his fine
herd of eight cows, giving such ricb.
financial returns. He is somewhat
handicapped in owning and farming.
only 75,acres of land. This year he
is feeding a gallon of oat chop three
times a day, with`cornand ensilage,
all grown on his own farm, but a
year ago, grain was scarce and he
had to spend about $500 in feed.
Some criticize the Holstein as a
breed, but Mr. Johns has as good
results as most men with grade cat-
tle. •sae breeds his cows to .a dual-
purpose Shorthorn bull and gets
'good beef stock. He sold; two hei-
fers some time ago that weighed
2,200 pounds at two years old. A
two-year-old heifer sold to the beef
'ring last summer, dressed, 540 lbs.
bf beef.
, One of his cows with some Ayr-
shire blood gave . one and;one-half
pails of milk twice a day for four
months after freshening. His' l>est
