Dear Sir, -May I be afforded space
in the columns of you': excellent pap-
er, wherein to make a IOW vemarks,
which may possibly prove of more oia.
less interest to some of your readers.
I have on one or two occasions flot-
aal reintairs in BUS Paper from our
good oitieens, nowly returne'd trom
A visit to England, to the effeat that
.the old country farmer is sadly be-
hind in his methods, and that Britial
farming as a who is on tin indifferent
hasio.
Let me say mese emphatically, Mr.
Editor,: that) the average British fann-
er is in every respect able to hold his
own, and has no need 46 occupy a
back seat among his brethren from
other parts of the woold. 01 ?trrSc``
in different countries different meth_
ods will obtain, butt these are aature
ally, governed by looal conditions.
Last week 1 cycled into the country
to have a talk with one et the farmers
In what is known as the Fylde dis-
trict, lying adjacent' to Prestonrails
gentleman, Mr. John thooks of Pop-
lar Grove Farm, Inskip, may be tak-
en as a good example of the average
British fanner. Springing .frona true
yeomaa stock, he and his foubears
bare farmed in the Fylde district for
a great may generations.
. Receiving me with kindly courtesy,
Mr. Crooks kindly consented to show
ane over his farm at the same . tilma
*giving me some information in, :iagard
•to crop returns, ainount of stock,
teto. He Moats about 200 acres, 100
et which .arc under the plough,the re-
maining 100 being in pasture. Mr.
('rooks sells very little g' hi tirecir
feeding It mostly all to his cattle,
horses, sheep and pigs. About tile
onlY two crop items he has for sale
,direot are hay and potatoes, of which
lotto; he generally has in about 20
'acres. His hay crop generally nets
'him about seventeen hundred dollars,
:which is a fair Auterest of itself. In
response to a question about the av-
erago crop yields per acre, the follow-
ing figures were given. Taken one
year with another these figures repre.
.sene an even average :
Fall Wheat, 35 bushels per acre.
Oats, 55 bushels.
Batley, 40 bushels.
Potatoes, 400 bushels.
'Thanips, 20 tons.
Bay, generally a mixture tat iye
gloss and clover, from 21 to 31.
' Toes per acre.
It should be borne in mind thatt the
English standard for barley is all lbs
per bushel and for oats 42 lbs.
In regard to hired help. Mr. Creeks
employs live men the year reund and
doubles bis quota dining busy soas-
ons. In this respect the old country
farmers are fortunately: situated.
They can hirC capable and experienc-
ed mop tor approximately $175 per
annum, with board and lodging. No
doulit this item goes far towards ex-
plaining the steady halux of men froni
Great Britain. Mr, Crooks goes , in
for sheep breeding, keeping ninety
breeding ewes, from Wiliell he btaia-
ed 135 lambs this last spring At ono
time he was a great cheesemaker,
milking 50 cows, and keeping dome -
thing aim 100 hogs to consume the
by-products. A.t preserit only seven
eowa are milking, mostly of the
Sher laorn breed. Around 50 or 60
head of beef cattle are fed) on the
' farm. 'I'Wo teams of huge Shire hor-
ses ' are kept, whilst a third and
'fourth team can generally be made'
up from colas when the occasion de-
mands it. Mr. Crooks keeps four
'brood mares wherewith to breed suit-
able horsea. He is a believer in, thor-
oughly ferailizing, the land, the inina
mum amount of artificial manure used
being 25 tons a year at a cost of $500
lairati-7,,. or • more. This is lir, additlott to a
•considerable amount of barnyard man-
) tire from the stock,
, The machinery on this foam Iltorres-
: ' Ponds very nearly to that used on the
farms of Ontario : binders, mowers,
drills, harrows, ploughs, rakes, and
00 forth. The dwelling house, rata-
btradinga, hares, etc., are all con-
structed from 'tad brick, and are rery
trim and well kept up.
Atter bidding Mr: Crooksgood aye,
I returned home by a different :outo
in order to see a little more of the
country. The general appearance of
the farms of the district is neat and
businesslike, every available foot of
and „being utilized, alt im01grnntls
kerst in a propea shed, when not in
est:, and no litter, ete., allowed to
lie about on the ground. The horses
, and calstle all appear sleek and well
fed, testilying to proper attention.
Onc thing 1 notice is the extreme

horses are groomed and tbey are
