Most of the agriculturists who have left Ontario in the past decade have traveled to the West and are now reaping the good things in that part of Canada, The fact that they moved does not mean that agricultural pos- sibilities in this province are in any sense below par. On the contrary, there ,is abundant evidence that old Ontario as an agricultural section of the Dominion, where the 'worker of the scil is trained and intelligent, stands without an equal. As a class the farmers of Ontario have not kept pace with the march of agricultural progress. If farming has not paid in some cases -many cases, perhaps -it bas not been because the profit was not there, but because the farmers either did not know how or else did know and were unwilling to make the additional effort. In Great Britain and northern, European states are thousands of farmers, who for years have worked their little holdings on the intensive plan. They have solved the problem of making a living from plots of ground so small that the average Ontario farmer would hardly be bothered looking at them. If the Ontario Government is able to induce enough of these intensive method farmers from the old world to come to Ontario and take up the farms of the thousands who have passed on the West, the whole incident will work out immensely to Ontario's future advant- age, What this province needs more than anything else, agriculturally, just now, is the introduction of mis- sionaries who will teach our farmers the better and more profitable way to work their acres. ABOUT HOUSE FLIES. The importance of the house fly as a disease spreader is every day more and more recognized, so clearly so in Florida that the State Board of Health has issued a somewhat florid warning poster to be placed in con- spicuous places. Among its headlines are the following :- Flies are disease -carriers. Live and breed in all kinds of filth. Infect food and drink by germladen feet. Should be kept out of dwellings. To get rid of them, Suburban Life recommends - Keep garbage cans constantly cov- ered. Be careful that all doors and win- dows are screened. Screen all food if it is not possible to keep the flies from it in any other way. Needless to say, any formalin pre- paration should be kept out of the reach of children. Do not allow decayed vegetables or other material to accumulate. Keep your premises clean. Sticky fly -paper, with bands for sus. pending near the ceiling, are now on the market, and are very useful. Another anti -fly mixture is one part formaldehyde (formalin) and four of water. If this preparation is placed in tins about the house, it will prove very effective, as it attracts the flies, and kills them instantly. To kill flies in the house, dissolve 818 grains of bichromate of potash in 10 ounces of water, sweeten with sugar; and plaee in shallow dishes through- out the house. This material is cheap; can be purchased at the drag store.

Following the action of the Ontaric West Shore Railway in replacing the crossing of its Iine at Dunlop, torn u by the fanners of Colborne Tp„ the township council made application t the Ontario railway and municipa' board to have the crossing removed and Messrs. A, B. Ingram, H. N. Kitt son and A. 0, Small, Sec., were it Goderioh on. June 13 to deal with the matter. The board intimated that the crossing was in the right place. and advised that the dispute be settle( in the meantime withholding a forma decision. A great deal of interest wa manifested in the investigation, resi dents of the town and township, crowding the courtroom to the doors, Fifteen of the men who tore up the track are being criminally prosecuted, Britain's Work In Egypt. In 1882 when the British occupation of Egypt began, the debt of the coun try was, says one authority, $500, 000,000, and the income of four an one-half millions was insufficient to pa interest and the cost of carrying on the Government. By 1908 the debt had been reduced to $179,000,000, there was a reserve fund of $45,000,000 an the income was eighty-one and one half millions, or ten millions in excess of expenditure. Twenty-eight years ago the cities and towns of the coup try were without drainage and so re cently as ten yeors ago Cairo Itsel was without these sanitary conveni ences and the death rate was forty -sit per thousand. Cholera and other epidennics were frequent occurrence) and carried off the people by thou sands. To -day the country is in s fairly healthy condition physically a well as financially. Contrasts In Milk Yields. Some records are always stimulat- ing. Some of the records from mem bets of the cow -testing association for May are indicative of good cows well kept and well fed, in a word, decidedly profitable cows. For in stance, one dairyman in western On tario owning a herd of 65 cows ha the inspiring record of 1127 lbs. of milk per cow during the month. Again, in six associations in Peterboro and Oxford counties the average yield o 380 cows was 1055 lbs. of milk and 34.3 lbs. of fat. The reverse of the picture is not so rosy, indicating the need of more and better cows, Several as- sociations have an average of under 700 lbs. of milk and 26 1bs7^ fat. A group of 75 cows at one creamery gave only 601 lbs. of milk and 21.8 lbs, fat in May. Think of ,the difference, the aveage yield noted above is seven- ty per cent, better. As an instance of what is being done by the selected animal the record of one of the moat famous cows -to -day forms a wonder- ful contrast. She is credited with 120 lbs, fat in thirty days. This cow, it is said, was picked up from a neighbor who did not keep records and there- fore was unaware of her phenomenal value. Who will be the next Ivan to discover another such diamond in the rough ? Individual cow records alone can show where such jewels exist.
