AS IT WAS

We head something 4u a weekly
paper from 'Western Ontario the
Other tray and tt told about pious
for the UR fair, which does not
come for a month or so yet The
committee making rules had pat in
a uttw one aiaying that grain exhibit-
ed could not be baud-aorted. It
would have le be a fair sample of.
grain as it came from the senara-
That used to ee a point for a
goon deal of dleenselon on the
Tenth C'oueession wen fall fair

father hud some good wheat land;
it grew good straw and filled nice
read sad it uas fairly plump, But
he found other peep:, along the
Tenni were betting hits at the fail
fair although they were not taking
out as ntauy bushels per acre nor
did a bushel of their wheat weigh
up to hie.
Theft it was that th'- hired man
spilled the news that they were
hand ;,urting their wheat. Hired
nem have a way of kuuwirg aimoat
arty biug that takes place along
the e0ace.esion; at least it used to
work oat that way. When the
weekly paper came to she home
with reeve front the Tenth Con-
cession the kited man used to read
It and snort, and then 11a'd say he
knew all that days ago. So he re-
ported that the kitchen tables were
cleared along the Tenth and the
whole family sort to work to pick
out a bushel of the plumpest wheat
they could find --nitre p:r-c a at a
time. They said they were pick-
ing it that way for next year's seed.
but the hired matt snorted again and
rseid they were pekiug it over to
show at all the lairs within driveie
distance.
Grandfather never did approve of
that butt he allowed it to
be done and he eecepted the
prize ticket when hie stand eeked
wheat was shown and asked no
gueetions Perhaps the knowledge
that he had no part re the pro-
cess helped to ease hie conscience
But he had a way of growing
maugolds which resulted in the
balf dozen he exhibttea being much
greater than the average crop in
the field. After the roots had
been tdtinued he kept on watching
them• for a spell, and then picked
on eight or ten which Looked as
though they had a tot of health and
energy in them. Then he thinned
the others cwt and dug a trench
around the few selects. The
trench was kept a tale distance
Wok and was a foot or so deep and
into It was packed ferelitzer—other-
wise barnyard manure, If there
was a drought on it never touched
those Ipet nuangolds because that
trench had to be kept moist. The
maugolds seemed to catch the idea
for they grew and kept on growing,
Most of them bad to be banked nip
at bit as they looked as though they
might get top heavy and heave
themselves out of the round, Those
mangoids were never taken out

RURAL CANADA THINKS
RELIEF CUTS OVERDUE
(By .RtiSTICL:S-
TRIL MONTHLY crop Report of
bhe Ontario Depttntmeut of Agrictti'
Lure has just been issued In glanc-
ing through the report we were
reminded of a question the Beacon -
Herald recently put to a number of
resdents or Lite•t'it.y concerning ine
migration, Tire majority of these
people apparently favored selected
irumigreedou, They stressed the
fact that care must be taken so that
the new -comers would not become
dependent upon ire State and they
seemed, to agree that any lnuni-
grants permitted to enter should
settle upon the laud.
THE. RECENT crop report com-
pares farm eroduce Prices of Aug.
10t1, 1907, and Aug. 10th ,1928, We
note •that cheese at 14). per lb, is
the only unchanged item in the Iist
of staple etoduce, 1iatte,, on the
other hand, has declined In price
11,2 per cent, and since Aug, 10111
the decline has been more severe.
The dec.ine in price of grain this
year, as compared with a year ago,
is even more severe. Wheat, for
instance, is down 41,5 per cent,
friar a year ago. The decline in
oris fs ahout 28 per neat, and barley
down 21 per cent.
The best steers were selling for.
101_ cents a pound hl Toronto year
ago, At a correspondreg week this
August they brought Pee.cents,
Hogs were 4112. per cwt. In the week
ending Aug, 11, 1937; in 1939 they
htougbt $10,50 o11 the same basis.
It will be readily seen that the
limner's income is therefore consid- f
erably lower this year than it was
a year ago. The unfortunate part

IN THF°', FACE of these rather
drastic declines 10 farm ,produce
prices, do we want more fanners to
ogee on our Undeveloped
lands
and add further to the surplus prob-
lem? Would organized labor wel-
come an influx of skilled mechanics
while the labor market is over-
crowded? We are not taking up
the argument, but it does bring a
smile when city folg are so anxious
to populate the country, particular-
ly the rural portions of It,

ANOTHER THING that caught
our pye was tre phrase "providing
they are the proper kind." Now,
wey does not Canada produce the
proper hied of men? One would
naturally tmlagine that a young
country, like Canada, should be a
parullse for the rearing of men and
women who Medd put their shoul-
ders to the wheel and make a go of
things; and yet ovule Rens of thous.-
