sixty companies were incorporated, ac-
cording to the report of the Secretary
and Registrar of the Province, just
issued, while the revenue received
through this branch of the department
amounted to $321,553.79. The largest
item was for letters patent, licenses,
etc., $235,662.10.
Writs for the bye -elections in East

cy was caused by the death of lir. Rob-

The trade of Canada for the first
third of the present fiscal year shows
an increase of nearly eighty million
dollars, or a little over thirty per cent.,
as compared with the corresponding
four months of last year. The total
trade for the first four months of the
present fiscal year was $328,635,844, as
compared with $249,03L736 last year -
Imports this year totalled 3210,766,457,
an increase of $47,907,509. Exports
totalled $117,870,387, an increase of
$31,697,589. If the present rate of in-
crease is continued for the full twelve
months Canada's trade for the present
fiscal year will run well over the biliion-
doIlar mark.
During the five months, April 1 to
September 1, of the current fiscal year,
242,509 immigrants arrived in Canada.
Of this number 163,300 arrived at ocean
ports and 79,209 from the United Stat-
es. These figures show an increase of
fourteen per cent., as compared with
the number of arrivals for the corres-
ponding months of Last fiscal year,
which were 141,021 at ocean ports,
and 71,833 from the United States,
making a'total for the five months,
.April 1 to September 1, 1911. of 212,854
persons. The magnitude of immigra-
tion to this country may, perhaps, be
better realized by saying that for the
five months mentioned the figures ap-
proximately correspond with the united
populations of Winnipeg and Vancou-
ver, which, according to last year's
census, gave a total of 236,436.

EDITORAL NOTES
A WINNING PAIR.
By special arrangement we are able
to offer to new subscribers our own
paper along with The Weekly Mail
and Empire, the two together, from
now till January lst, 1913, for 25c„
or from now till January lst. 1914, for
$1.60.
This is an opportunity for getting
two most valuable papers for the
homes and firesides of this district,
and we are hopeful that the full value
of this unprecedented offer will appeal
in the most practical way to all within
the limits of our circulation,
The Weekly Mail and Empire is con-
ceded to be one of the best town and
country papers published in Canada,
and its special department devoted to
agriculture,. horticulture, dairying,
poultry -raising and stock -breeding ren-
ders it invaluable to the rural and farm-
ing interests.
Its magazine section contains the best
of the current Iiterature of to -day, its
scientific and legal columns supply in-
formation on practical sujects and pro-
blems; while the news section gives the
Iatest happenings of Canada and all the
world.
To the people of this community the
merits of our own paper are well
known, so surely the best local paper
and the great metropolitan weekly—
the two together at little more than the
price of one—should mean mane new
subscribers. Send all orders to the
office of this paper. •

The Canadian Seed
Growers' Associatiol .
The Eighth Annual report of the
Canadian Seed Growers' Association
which is now being distributed by the
Publications Branch of the Dominion
Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, is
replete with matters of interest not on-
ly to those concerned in the production
of high class seed but to all who are in-
terested in rural progress generally.
In addition to the report itself there
are included several addresses by such
prominent authorities as the Hon. Mar-
tin Burrell, Dr. Jas. W. Robertson,
Prof. C. C. James, Prof. L. S. Klinek,
EtsTsvAwAsseose. J. H. Grisdale, etc. Of special inter-
est perhaps, is the paper presented by
Mr. Rufus Stimson, Agent of Agricul-
tural Education, Boston, Mass., on
"Vocational Agricultural Education
for Boys and Girls." The means
adopted in Massachusettes and oth-
er States of the Union in interest-
ing the boys in farm work and in
correlating the work of the school with
ordinary farm work is most suggestive
and should be carefully studied by all
Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Bugg, were given who are interested in the more efficient

of Agriculture, Ottawa.
Mr. Alex. McGowan, of the second
concession of East Wawanosh, has fin-
ished threshing. He if eports the grain
generally, as good. On weighing a bag
of oats as they came from the machine,
it tipped the scales at 118 lbs. which is
an exceptionally good weight. Mr.
McGowan had over 800 bushels of this
class of oats.

$400 From Half Acre.
The Aylmer Reformer is responsible
for the following: A. C. Snider, of
South John street, owns three-fifths
of an acre of land that produces as
much as any spot of equal size in Can-
ada in outdoor cultivation. On this
property is a house, a stable, chicken
and hog pen. A driveway, grass plots
and flower beds and buildings altogether
take up about the tenth of an acre,
Ieaving about a half an acre for the
garden. Three rows of strawberries,
about 136 feet long run down the cen-
tre, which yielded $9n in cash, besides.
what Mrs. Snider used for the house,
another $10. In another portion of the
garden is a big patch of raspberries.
The rest of the garden is taken up with
a big variety of vegetables. A careful
estimate places the value at $400 for
this year's products from the half aere.
Of course it takes work and well -rotted
manure to get such results. It is a
lesson in intensified culture, and shows
that a good living can be made from a
small pateh of ground if properly cul,
tivaterl.
The Grain -Growers' Association sent
a proposal to the manufacturers to join
them in advocating increase of the
British preference to 50 per Bent.
