This is: a reduction of over 95 per cent. fronli the time required in harvesting and threshing an acre a century ago. It is a striking in- stance of how machinery has facili- tated work on the farm. Royal Winter Fair The next big event from an agri- cultural standpoint in Ontario is the Royal Winter Fair which takes place in' Toronto from : November 19th to 27th. One new feature this year is'the visit of 230 Ontario girls at the expense of the Provincial Government. These, with the 500 boys who annually throng the Coli- seum and take part in the different Junior Farmer contests, should liven up matters considerably.

Injurious to Wire Fence .Many times the advice Is given in the fall of the year to "burn out the fence rowsi' to get rid of harm- ful weeds and insects. This, no doubt, is a .good policy from those standpoints, but it should be kept in mind that it is distinctly harmful to any type Of *ire fence.,Zinc melts at a comparatively low temperature and the heat front burning grass or weeds is often sufficient to scorch the ,protective coating and will probably shorten by several seasons the useful life of the fence.

Fertility is heritable, •therefore always select breeding stock from large litters. Breeding sows trust have more pro- tein and calcium; thanfattening stock in order to build up flesh and bone in their young. The important sources of supply of these are meat and protein meal, milk and legumin- ous pastures.

Weekly Crop Report Generally speaking the weekly crop report of the agricultural re- presentatives would indicate that cattle are not in as good condition as they were a month' ago, due to pastures drying up.” The 'milk stip- ply is also falling off, many cheese factories only receiving milk every other day, In the western portion of the province fall wheat has suffered due ;to lack of rainand' considerable acreage 'will go into winter with _ a light top. . Heavy snows recently in Beuce County have melted and soft- ened the , ground, to such, an, extent. .that plowing is now facilitated. Not in yearn has the weather been so good for the beet harvest in Essex as this season, sand- a good revenue is expected from this crop. Abort ten per cent. is the outside estimate of the plowing done in Glengarry, the cause being attributed to the dolith.

News,Items on Matters Written For The News -Record Canadian and Foreign Expect St. Lawrence Canal Project To Be Started Within Year. Ottawa, Nov. 3rd, (Special to The News-Record)—Reports are circulat- ing in the capital that 1931 will sea definite steps taken to make a real- ity of the St, Lawrence Deep Water- way from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic, President Hoover is pressing through the United States Minister to Canada for a resumption of ne- gotiations -which he hopes will lead to actual work on the undertaking. Premier Bennett has said the sub- ject will receive his attention as soon as he returns from England, His primary task will he to, reach an. agreement with the Provinces Quebec and Ontario as to the respe tive rights of these provinces a the Dominion in the development, Several tines in the past years Premier King appeared to ha reached the basis of suuh- agre ment, but each time last Minute di ficulties arose. The progress he make, however, will enable Mr. Be nett to take up where he left off an it may be expected that the ne will have the sympathe cooperation of the Ontario ministry. The tringle question at issue in the development of the waterway is the international section. The comple- tion of the Weiland Canal by Canada covers that phase of the project while the.worlc now under way by the 13eauharno]s Power Corporation will complete the navigation ehannel in Quebec, save for the short stretch around the Lachine Rapids et Mbn treat. In connection with its pow development the Beauharnois co pany will complete and turn over to the government a navigation canal 600 feet .wide and 27 feet deep over a length of some 14 miles. This can- al will cost over S16.000,000 and is the company's contribution to the waterways project. The Government will install the two locks necessary to its use. The canal will be avail- able in 1932, whieh • will be some years before the international sec- tion can possibly be completed. denomination will he printed in green, those of the 2e in red, the 6c in blue and the 8d in orange, Renew Shipments of Canadian Cattle To Overseas Markets; • Ottawa, Nov. 1, (Special to The News -Record): Low prices for grains in Canada are already exercising a stimulating effect upon livestock production and also upon marketing activities. The Hawley -Smoot tariff passed at Washington this year effectively barred Canadian cattle from the Un - ted States market with the result that steps have been taken to re- ef claim the lost British market. c- The first shipment in recent years nd of range Cattle front Western Can- ada to the Birtish market went for - two ward from. Montreal to Manchester,ave England, on the SS. Manchester Cit- e- ion about October 31. This ship- 1- ment was organized with represen- did tative ranchers and breeders in n- Western •Canada for the purpose of d determining the suitability of range ew cattle for the British market, In the tic ship -load of 380 head are approx- imately equal, numbers of two-year- old, three-year-old and four-year-old beef cattle, and both fat and store cattle types are included, On arrival of the cattle at M'anthester they will be put up for sale by auction, in the meantime cattle buyers in the British Isles are being advised con- cerning the shipment. - Special care is being taken to - identify the cattle going forward in er this shipment, and each animal hears m± a letter "C" branded on the left cheek before embarkation, A veter- inary inspector travels with the cat- tle, and it is expected that some of of the ranchers who supply the cattle accompany the shipment, in order to -afford them an oppotrunity of be - .coining thoroughly acquainted with transportation methods, and the re- quirements and operation of one of the leading British cattle markets. The organization of this test ship- ment has already induced definite inquiries from souse of the Iarger Stockmen of Western Canada who may follow this shipment with sub- stantial shipinents on their own re- snonsibility before the close of the slhiuuing season. This is .the first occasion on which a composite shipment of Western range cattle has been shipped direct to the British market. and it is ex- pected to- determine the suitability of the various breed types and age groups for the British fat cattle and store cattle market. National Poultry Grading Operative Ottawa, November 1.; (Special to The News -Record): As a result of a nation-wide movement to introduce poultry grading the people of Can- ada will eat better poultry this year than ever before. The grading movement is being sponsored by the egg and marketing service in the 1)0- parttnent of Aga»ictilttire and, the hackers and others handling poultry in a big way, 'stave agreed to pay according to grade. Canada's poultry season extends roughly, from October 20 .to the new year. During that time aptroxim- etely 35.000,000 chickens and older fowl will be marketed in this coun- try in addition to turkeys, clucks and geese. All poultry. Neill be divided into two main grades'• "milk fed" and "selected." The milk fed are not necessarily fed with milk but , are -rate fed a:nd the selected are range fed, The two• grades will be sub- divided into several classes, and the buyers will pay a difference of four rents' a pound in favor of the mint fed cities. 'With the -present price of feed it is estimated that crate feeding will. be a` profitable under," Expectation here that Ma•. Bennett will. strive for the early commence- ment of work on the international section is given support by the de- claration of Hon. R. J.

In former centuries it tended toward . making warriors 'and thought that'now it should . tend in' the opposite direction, namely, toward peace. Ile spoke of the' hundred years 'of peace between United States and Canada. and, of the five thousand miles., of national r boundary existing between the two. He • spoke of : the wealth and won- der of the civilized and Christianized' relations existing between the- two countries during this long period., What is the future'to bring? he asked, in closing,' and pointed out. that. the answer lies largely with r our schools and those with the oversight of the schools of Canada. Explains New Grants Dr. J, 1W. Field, I.P.S. for East r ' Huron, gave a synopsis of the, new • basis of grants to public schools, which has recently been announced by the Minister of Education. lie showed that the idea of the depart- ' . .mentis, not the saving of funds but to give material assistance to out- • lying schools in Northern Ontario, etc., where the assessment is small. The idea of the legislative grants has been. to give • teachers better sal- , aries.. He spoke of the salaries paid , to teachers, in Huron County as cons - paring favorablywith those paid by other counties, in most cases $1,000 or over being paid. Ole hoped the new basis of. grants, which are ef- fective for 1931, would have no ad- verse effect upon the present sal- aries as this would be a rude shock to the teachers. , iRe outI•ined the ehanges which have been trade, and as all secretaries of school boards have been sent copies, it is not necessary to go into same here, There was some interesting dis- cussion following Dr. Field's address and Charles A. Robertson, M.L.A., was 'asked to express his opinion. He spoke of the government grants in the past, which have been very liberal. "If it does not mitigate against the small schools it may be iall right." He trusted that it,would not be an unmixed evil, and thought wei had been en bringing it en largourselvesly,responsible He advoi- i eated the training of rural pupils along agricultural lines, and advised that, ,in the event of agricultural schools, being established, perhaps Huron County might secure one of them, Mr. E. C. Beacon, I.P.S. for West Huron, dealt with the subject of fifth classes, In 76 percent of can- didates for entrance examination the pupils desired to go on to school. Among school boards it may not be generally understood that the teach- ing of fifth classes must be provided for if there are two or more pupils desiring to take that work, West Huron is outstanding with regard to fifth classes, the rural section of the district being responsible for the large number. There are two classes of schools seeking such work, the two or three room school and the one room school, Every 2 -room school in the inspectorate has a fifth class in which two years of high school work is taught. This is a real service to rural communities as it allows the children to remain two years long- er at home. In the one room schools fifth room classes are not so satis- factory, he said, and often too much time is spent on them by the teacher to the negleet of the junior classes. Also few one -room schools have the equipment for working and much of the work :has to be taken from text books without demonstrations by use of equipment. Another objection is that languages are not taught in a one -room school as there is not time at their disposal. In the 2 and 3 Dfueh interest Vas mani- frte o d i th n e nn al a u ..con - was manifested in the; annual c volition of the Huron County Educa- tional Association of Trustees and Ratepayers, which was held on Sat- urday, Nov. 1, in the large auditor- ium of the •Clinton Collegiate Insti- tute, the hall being filled to capacity The 'slogan of the association, "Bet- ter Schools, Better ,Education, Bet- ter Citizens," is'expressive of the aims behind the .association, and, it augurs well for the outlook of, ou schools to see so many in attendance at the convention 'The public. speaking competition, which was under the direction of the district representative, Ian . Mb Lod, was the first feature of the program. There were thirteen corn= petitors, each one being the winne at the school fair in his or• her dis- trict, all'tlte fairs, 'being represented except two—Bluevale and Grand Bend. Dr. J. M. Field, I.P.S. £o' East Huron, and E. C. Beacon;, I.P S. for West Huron, acted as judges and awarded the first prize to Elva Wuerth, Crediton, whose stibjeet was 'SCanada,. Our Land of Progress.' The winner in the competition of a year ,ago was from the same school The second prize went to Lena Mun- ore, Blyth, who chose as the subject of her address "Lord Strathcona," and the winner.of the third prize was. Anna Curran, Courie's Corner Township of Ashfield. The other speakers were: Doris Horner, Zurich, "The Union Jack;" Deb Horton, Carlow, "Thoughts on Fairs," Alma Tre- wartha, Porter's Hill, "The Qualities of a True Canadian"; Jean Cornish, Clinton Rural, "Pauline Johnston"; Benson Sutter, Clinton Town, "A Boy That Made Good"; Cameron Rintoul, Belgrave, "C'anada"; Freda Rintoul, St. Helens, "How the Auto- mobile Has Added to the Sum Total of Human Happiness"; Lloyd Hern, Winchelsea, "Sir John A.

Forty dollars worth of books were awarded as prizes, the winner of first pirze receiving four boosts, the second three books, and the third two books. Each of the other contest- ants was presented with one book, The prizes were made possible through the generosity of the Coun- ty of Huron members of the Federal House and of the ''Legislature. Thomas McMillan, M.P., South Huron, expressed his pleasure at being present at the gathering and said that those who were not present had missed a great treat. He com- mented upon the excellence of the speeches, which were all of a very high order, both from point of view of subject matter and delivery, and ht congratulating the speakers hop- ed that the day would come when they would represent Canada, as to= day they had represented the Coun- ty of Huron. Mr. McMillan told of some of his own personal experienc- es, when, as a very young man, he commenced his career 03 a public speaker when he took part in de- bates„ etc, in his own community. He emphasized the importance of preparedness before making the at- tempt to speak, Charles A. Robertson, M.L.A. for North Huron, in a neat speech, re- iterated the sentiments of Mr. Mc- Millan and expresesd his pleasure in being present at this, the largest gathering in the history of the as- sodiation. He congratulated each speaker upon the splendid addresses given, which he said also reflected great credit upon the respective teachers. He ended by saying that if the people of Huron County real- ized the value and pleasure such events afford the )tall in which ethey were assembled would not begin to hold all who would be present.

He &ged that secondary education be provided, which would be of such a nature as would be beneficial to Chase hops and girls Who intend to make farming their life work.
