We hope they will' soon recover and be none the worse for their experience., The following interesting item was Clipped from this week's Christ- ian Guardian: `Elimville; Rev. H. B. Parnaby, pastor.—This old circuit is still on the map and going strong. Like most of the rural circuits, in the banner province of Ontario, it has experienced a 'wave' of prosperity during the past few years; but the people have given almost as freely as they have received. Very few rural circuits .can boast of .a record Isuch as this circuit. This year the president's "chair and the secretary- ship of our Conference are graced by two men who ^ were former pas- tors 'on this circuit. That in itself is a coincidence not`'without its,,mean- ing. Our Pastors make good and the circuit must ,,be..,gven,;some credit in the final analysis;r•But when one turns to finances, especially of the last few years, the record is one worthy of emulation. In the year 1918-19 this circuit, with a member ship -,of 200, contributed for the missionary purposes of the church (including- general,: W.M.S, and spec- ial for educational- work, in 'China) over $2,000, or reckoned on`"the bas- is of meiiibership, more than $10 per member, and on the ' basis of families approximately $20 per fam- ily. Last year the amount,contribut- ed for missionary purposes was. $1,072, and there was contributed to the National Campaign over $2.300, more than $2,000 of which has al- ready been paid. We have increased our pastor's salary year after year, until now we are paying $1•,G00, in - eluding horsekeep, and the pastor is paid in full every quarter. • The pastor, who is completing his third year, received a hearty and unani- inous invitation to return for . 'a fourth year, but could not see his way clear to do so. The circuit is in a good condition, ',both financially and spiritually. Sunday 'Schools are. well, organized' and `iacreas'Ing in of fec�tiveness. The W.M.S.' `and their junior organizations ae., reachiing.. out and will record ., another year. 'The .officials on the .circuit are im- bued with a spirit of progress and we expect the cicrult to"keep up its good record. ST.

It would seem from this in- vestigation that legislation is having but little effect in the control of weeds in Ontario. Legislation without education is, in the opinion of the writer, useless. It is only when the sentiment of those concerned is behind an act that is can be successfully enforced and such sentiment can be created only by proper. education, In regard to education, consider- able has been done by the Ontario Agricultural and Experimental Union. This organization in co-oper ation with the Department of Botany at the Ontario Agricultural College has carried on, during the past eight years, co-operative experiments- in weed eradication. Over seventy farmers have conducted successful experiments. The weeds experi- mented with were Perennial Sow Thistle, Twitch Grass, Bladder Cam- pion or Cow Bell, Wild Mustard, Ox - Eye Daisy, Field Bindweed, Wild Oats and Chess. The objects of these .experiments is to get' data from which definite, stateninents' may, be made regarding. the best methods of controlling the, various bad weeds. It is hoped to include more weeds each' year until exact information has been obtained concerning the. eradiction of most of the bad weeds in the province. The results of this work are pre- sented each year at the annual meet= ing of the Experimental Union at Guelph and the more important re- sults are published in the annual report. Six of these experiments have now been carried on for eight successive years, and some very valuable infor- mation obtained regarding' the con- .trol of such weeds as Perennial Sow Thistle, Twitch Grass, Bladder Cam- pion, and Wild Mustard. This infor- mation inay ;bebriefly summarized as follows: 1. That good cultivation followed by rape sown in drills provides a means of eradicating both Perennial Sow Thistle and Twitch GraSs. :2. That rape is a more satisfactory crop to use in the ,destruction of Twitch Grass than buckwheat. 3,^ That rape gives'• much better, results in the eradication of Twitch Grass and Perennial Sow Thistle when sown in drills and cultivated than it does when sown broadcast. 4. That thorough deepcultivation in fall and spring followed by a well cared for hoed crop will destroy Bladr Campion, 5 de1'hat mustard may be prevented from seeding in oafs, wheat or barley by spraying; with a iweuty per cent, solution of iron sulphate without any serious injury to the standing crop or to fresh seedings of clover. In addition to this expei•inlental' and educational work of the Agricul- tural and Experimental Union,, the Department or Delany has carried on. various experiments in the eradica- tion of radica-tion,of many of the worst weedsof thoi'0VincPf p . 1-'ro .
