FRESH EGGS BY PARCEL POST.
Ottawa, Feb. 10, -Of all parcels
that 'came to Hon. L. P. Pelletier
over the new parcels post to -day the
most prized was, a 'dozen fresh eggs,
which came from J. C. Stuart of
Dalmeny, Onto and was a sample of
lnhe work' that can be done by par -
cell; post in linking producer and con-
sumer.
The eggs were contained in a pa-
tent cardboard box, the eggs sten:l-
ies on end and well protessed.
"farmers" of the House erre edosi a-
bout the postmaster-general'a desk
and passed expert. opinion upon the
coot iv once. "
The valuable shipment ;art sed in
perfect condition, and it is to be
sumed will be the headline featuto of
the Pelletier breakfast table to -mor-
row morning.
There were parcela of all kinds
sent to the postmaster -general from
all over the country, but they were
• ihrown into' the shade' by the egg
consignment.
LARGE ANDSMALL FARMS.
The, experience of the Swiss farmer
raises 1.he big ,question of large versus
smalip Caransa-a question that has been
fregaently dismissed. In this country
• to -day, as was the case in the United
States some years ago, there is a
• tendeney to reach out for too much
land. Where land is cheap and is like-
ly to increase in value there is some
excuse for owning as much of it as
possible. Where land, however,. has
reached as valuation near the limit at
which it will be profitable for farin-
in not good business for the
-farmer to own more land than he can
work to advantage at p, profit. And
• thia is. especially true where farm
help is scarpe and the farmer has to
•,Io the bulk of the weric himself. A far-
mer so situated will make •more
• money from 100 acres than frojn 200
acres ancl More often than not, have
more money at the end Of the
year from 5,0 acres than from 100 ac-
res. A great deal is said those days
about intensive fanning, making ev-
ery acre produce to the limit, There
are very few farmers., in this country
in a position to practise entensive
farming on more than 100 acres
the -east and 160 aerea in the west. In
fact it is impossible to practise so.
called intensiae fanning on these, no -
tea unless plenty of help is available.'
But as yet there is very little inten-
sive farming practised in this COUnv
• 'try and wa will have to deal with
-tile big question, from the standpoint
of conditions as we find thein. Leav-
ing out the question of intensive
farming our statement that a 100 -
acre •farm is about all a ma,n can
*ell handle if he has to do most of
the work himself still holds good.
We have, however, many men in Can-
• ada to -day, engaged its other occupa-
• tions, and their number is inereasing,
who operate farms. These must of
• necessity employ competent men as
;fatal martagera and pay , then), well
;and it ,is of advaetage to have large
• 'farnIt. In fact unless some intense
'method' were followed, the overhead
,oharges would be so large as to make
It necessary to operate several lima
dred acres,-canadian Fang. ,

CAPE l'IR•ETON POTATOES.
•• (Special ('orrespondent.)
Grand Narrows, N. S. Feb. 121,1i
Feta: hendred •pounds of •potatoes
from nine pounds of 'seed is a
pretty good yield for a Cape 'Ireton
farnter. That is the result obtained
by Thos. 0, IIart of I,eitche's Creek
from a Patch he planted last spring.
'When Mr. Hart left his home in Lan-
cashire a 'few year .% ago ana with
his family settled et Sydney /Minos,
he readily 'secured employment at the
Scotia collieries as an expert) miner,
But this did not appeal to him as did
the wholesome healthy - work on the
land, and with his earnings he put-
cha'sed the farm 'of Geist, Renipt at
Lcetehe's Creek. Some time ago he re-
• peived front the Governmental farm. at
Nappan a sample of Ashley Kidney
potatoes, and after a thorough test
he received from three pounds of seed
118 pounds. A similar quantity of
the Early Rose variety returned 137
and Satisfaction 1471 poundt-a tot-
al of 1004 pounds from 9 pounds of
seed. ' '1",otato raising is not Mr.
Hart's specialty either, as he devot-
es his energies to grain and dairy

THE DY10ED MEADOWS OF FUN -
DY BAY.
Sackville, N. S. Feb. 10th 1114.
Along the shore of the Bay of
Fundy, Nova Scotia, are large tracts
of inexhaustively fertile lands 'that
have been reelairneti from the sea.
This land lines the headwaters of the
Bay of Fundy and extends inland up
its rivers. The strong tides of that
Bay, which are the, highest in the
world, gather, Up great ,quantities of
sediment from its ' beds and shores,
The depositing of this •sedinient along
the batiks of its headwaters has form-
ed a great accumulation of deep strong
soil that lies a wonderful productive
power. Indeed, when reclaimed from
the sea by means of dykes this soil is
surpassed for the growth of grass
and grain. Hay is the principal crop
grown. The land needa no fertilizer
of any kind, and practically no cultiva-
tion.. An occasional ploughing for a
crop of oats, perhaps once in ten
yeaas, will suffice, after which the
land in generally brought at once in-
to grass again. • Many thousanda of
tons of hay is annually shipped to
foreigo markets, including Newfound-
land, where it commands a very high
price. This hay has a value of froni
$100 to $150 'an acre and at that
price pays a big anreaal avenue to
the lucky owners.
