Soon after the conclusion of the con-

statement, in which he declared that
the co-operation of the United States

TOBACCO GROWING,
Selecting' the Type o1 White 88o8rley to! /
be Grown in Ontario,
There are two distinct typos of
White Burley now being grown in the
Burley 'sections, namely, the original
Broadleaf Burley and the Improved
Standard Burley.
The Broadleaf Burley, as the name.
indicates, is a large type with broad,
drooping leaves, large veins, a heavy
yielder, and, on account of the large
sap content of the leaves, it io inclined
to cure up a little dark,
The Improved Standard is a some,
what smaller type than the Broadleaf
Burley, with narrow, erect leaves,
smaller veins, of a little finer texture
than the Broadleaf, and, on account of
a smaller 'sa'p content in the leaves, it
is inclined to cure a little brighter col-
or. The narrow leaves also tend to
decrease the percentage of wrappers
in the Standup Burley.
Sinee the popularity of, and the re•
turns realized from, any type of to.
bacco, depend largely on the quality
of the cured product and the yield per
acre,. experiments were conducted at
the Harrow Tobacco Station during
the past season to determine the mer-
its of the two types. Four plots of
ground with as nearly the same text-
ure, character. and fertility as possible
were selected. Two. of, these plots
were plantedtoBroadleaf Burley, and
two to the Improved Standup Burley
respectively. All four plots were
planted at the same time, with plants
as nearly uniform in size and vigor as
possible, fertilized alike, cultivated
alike, and harvested and cured under
the same conditions.

sults obtained:

Mr. Balfour said, "is not based on

from treaties. No treaty could increase

`Mr. Balfour, after his first two days

Since'the above table gives the re-
sults for only one year's experiments,'
and the past growing season was a
very poor one, these results cannot bo
taken too conclusively. However, they
are a fair indication that the yield ob-
tained with the Broadleaf type is ap-
preciably greater than the yield ob-
tained with the Standup type and also
that the increased percentage of
bright leaf obtained with the latter is
hardly enough to offset the increased,
yield obtained with the Broadleaf
type. -
However, with the Broadleaf Burley,
especially, too much importance can-

properly regulating the ventilation

A Strange Trap for Deer..
When Capt. Kimball, my mother's
grandfather, settled on the Connecti-
cut in New Hampshire,' says a U. S.'
writer, the country was swarming
with wild game, and he often killed
deer and bears on his own place.
One day he went out in his wood
lot with a hired man to chop some
trees. The captain had a dog named
Watch, known far and wide as "Kim-
ball's bear dog." Watch followed his
master and began scouring the woods
for game. He soon started a deer,!
and his excited yelping made the'
woods ring. The deer seemed to be 1
running in a circle, and the two mon!
stood, axe in hand, listening.
In a little while the deer turned, and'
they could tell by the dog's voice that'
it was heading straight for where
they stood. They had very little time
to wait before the deer, a large buck,'
burst from the brush and dashed
across the little space where they,
had felled several trees, putting his '
whole soul into speed. When he had
nearly reached the shelter of the trees
once more, he encountered a tree that
had fallen across another in such a
way that its trunk at that point was
about eight feet from the ground. Tho
dog was too close to allow n turn,
and the buck leaped to clear the ob-
struction; but ire "took off" toll far
back, and landed 071 his stomach,f'fii'r-
ly across the top ,
With a leitp nearlylogas -long; ds that)
of the buck, Capt. Kimball seized both;
of the animal's hind legs as they were'
kicking vigorously and swung his:
weight on them, so that the buck)
u&buld not get across the log. As the
captain clung he shouted to the hired
man to rut around and hill the buck,'
but the follow was afraid of the big
horns that looked so formidable.
"Then come here and hold these
legs!" yelled the eaptain. "And if you
let go before I tell you to, you'll wish
you'd chosen the other end and taken.
a chance with the hothns.", '
Tho,.hired man came um took hold
under the captain's hands and put his
weight on the buck. When he was
sure that the man incl it nicely gal-.
tweed, tine captain killed the animal,
and the Kimball family ate fine fat
venison for supper.
