(Experimental ,.'['arms Note)
' On "the• two hundred .and eight il-

Branch, and distributed •throughout.

principle.embodied in the old adage

applied in a ,practical , way. On
these stations, comparative trials are
made embodying the results obtained
from the nearest Expe imental_ Sta-

which had notbeen previously grown
in the district.
In Northern Ontario, Northern

Maritime provinces, subject to early

such as Alaska; has proven a neces-
sity. +Similarly through ; the rhedimn
of these stations operating in, the
Prairie Provinces, comparative de-
monstrations;and trials with Marquis
Garnet and Reward wheat have as-
sisted in carrying' these varieties in-
to new districts, 'having been found
superior to those formerly grown.
From such demonstrations, farmers

ited extent for home use. Five
years later, however, $80,000 worth
of red clover seed was produced and
sold out of this district,; in a given
season., This crop still is increasing,
being grown as a cash crop in this
district in conjunction with their
dairy farming operations,
,Essential.and far-reaching demon-
strations with respect to the use .of
chemical fertilizers as a supplement
for manure, have been carried on.
particularly in the eastern provinces
and British Columbia. In many of
these districts, faun lands had be-
come deficient in plant fool, resulting
in low yields and the production - of a
poor, quality hay from the feeders'
standpoint. The use of • nitrogenous
fertilizers, ground limestone, lake
mud, marl, superphosphate, varying
amounts of potash, highly concen-
trated fertilizers such as nitrophoika
as well as complete mixed and home
prepared fertilizers, form the basis
of demonstration on a, farmer's own
land, to determine which ingredients
are most essential to crop growth
and ']which will most economically
supplement the deficiency in plant
food which exists on such farms, due
to the lack of farm yard manure..
Cultural demonstrations', including
the use and introduction of acclim-
atized red clover and alfalfa seed,
have been an objective en the Illus-
tration Stations in British Columbia.
When such demonstrations were
started in 1922, a crop survey show-
ed that less than two acres of alf-
alfa were being grown along the
Canadian National line between
Smi hcis and McBride. Test plote
were set out which later were ex-
tended to demonstration blocks
Hardy strains of red clover seed were
introduced and two acres seeded on
a number of farms throughout these
areas, for demonstration purposes
with a view to proeucing hardy seed
for use locally. The success of these
demonstrations has encouraged far-
mers to grow these two crops, to the
extent that the individual acreages,
particularly of red elover,on certain
farms, now in the Prince George
and Vanderhoof districts, has exceed-
ed 3,500 pounds in a season, Simile
arty along this line, the operator of

the• first car' of alfalfa shipped out
of the Nechako valley, and in 1927
the one at Tolima shipped the first
carload of alfalfa from the Bulkley
valley:
Demonstrations carried on untie•

tinct educational and stimulating
in that they tend to make individual
efforts more general in their appli-
cation.

THE WEEKLY PAPER
• (Winnipeg Tribune)
Editors and publishers of weekly
newspapers all over Canada gathered
in Regina for .their 12th annual con-
vention recently. It is a meeting of
vital importance because it gathers
tegether same of the really influential
men and women of Canada.
The editor of a metropolitan daily
-sees the whole picture of the world's
doings pass before him, He deals in
on breath with movements, events
and situations in Peru, Patagonia.
Zanzibar, Germany, Russia, England
and Canada.
, But he has neither the leisure nor
the opportunity to dig down into the
intimate lives of his own people. He
may ponderously confer his editorial
blessing upon a new .Government pol-
icy. But ho cannot print with due
dignity the complexion and weight of
Mrs, Brown's wonderful new baby.
The vagaries of the town pump, the
