Martin, Assistant- Direc- tor, Crops. &Markets Branch, Dept. of Agriculture, Torotnto.)I. Soinetlhing happened in 1931 to give iu an exitre'iaiely'boun'tiful crop of le- gume seeds.' ,Alpparenitly the elements in league with old Mother Nature, an- ticipated low price's for the farmer and in a vault atte'nnp't to give hint ,a• rem tine 'a,tio0 cash crop so arranged things that almost every clover field in the country produced its allotment of seed; seed that in most cases is Off very high quality. • This bountiful supply of home- grown legume seed is a real blessing to all farmers, particularly those not actually or :regularly engaged in the production of small seeds. iPile legume seed crop in Ontario this past year has been estimated' at varying anioun'ts, Even dos n1'osit con servative'.estiltitates piece the 193'1 crop at figure's that will insure ample 'nigh quality A'falfa, 'Red`. Clover and Alsike of h'ar'dy strains to meet the requiremeents of'every` farmer in' the Province of Ontario. Due to the low costs of seed farm- ers may seed down 10 to 20 acres mors this yeas thaih they have been in the habit of doing and at the same time their total casts of seed will be materially less than usual. -Same sections of Ontario are not yet growing Alfalfa to any great ex- tent and if the truth were known the cattse may be due to disap'pointmen't caused by winter killi'ng of innp'orted seed. As a soil builder, pasture and hay crap.' producer, Alfalfa stands su- preme. As a green manure crop Al- flafa opens up the soil and adds ni- trate's and o'bher•plan'tfoods to a value worth much more than the price .of the seed. As a hay crop Alfalfa out - yields all others both in quality and quantity. It. was the nilly crop to remain green dor pasture during re- cent very dry years in Western On- tario. In tlnoes sections where Al- falfa'Ihas not yet secured a foot'hald it shou'ld be sewn in mixtures with other legumes, 'The Timothy hay market is now al- most a thing of the past, Yet thous- ands of -bushels of 'Timothy seed are sown every year, more than half of wh'i'ch must by imported. I'f the Tim- othy acreage could be largely supple inen'ted by legume hay cro'p's, we could avoid imparting seed with the danger of having new weeds intro- duced. This . would also help in fur- ther creating a faVourable trade bal- ance. At the same time we would be growing crops that yield on the average nearly a ton to the acre more than T'i'nnothy. Legume" feed is of better quality for all farm animal's ex- cept horses on heavy work and bhe legume crops have a much more 'bene- ficial effect and are easier on the land than Timothy. After all can we afford to grow Timothy in such large quantities as we have done in the past ? All legumes are capable o1 transfer_ ring the nitrogen of bhe air to the soil and storing it there as nitrate's. The nitrates in the plant food are the most expensive to supply. Where le- gumes are grown extensively it is sel- dom necessary to add any nitrate fer- tilizer. This in.- itself is •a very'nater- ial saving in fertilizer costs, This year C'l!over, alfalfa and als'i&e are very reasonable in price. Although no retail prices have yet been set, conditions would indicate that prices will be very materially belolw those of last year and in spite of lo'w grain and live s't'ock prices, farmers moist consider the fertility and physical conditions of the soil, Present con- ditions afford a splendid op'portun'ity for 'a mucli more exteansive seeding down o'f 'legume craps for hay, for pasture and as a green manure crap to be plowed ddwn. Clover and grass markets have been very dull and seeds have been moving only in small quantities, Prices for small seeds hallve, however, strength- ened -sligh't'ly in the United States and Europe. Seine Can'a'dian Red Clov- er has already been exported do Great Britain, and taking into consideration the exchange it 'nay be poss'i'ble in the near future ,to overcome the pro'hib'i- tive tariff of Sc per pound and at least some of our surplus seeds of lower grades may be ntarlceted in the Unit- ed, States. In view of these indications and considering the present low prices farmers might well be advised to pro- cure seed supplies early. Due to the fact that hundred's- o'f farmers saved clover seed this year who never did before' and, in' many cases no prep'arati'on was made to guard against weed •seeds, there will no doubt be a lo.t of clover come on the market; very low in grade due to weed. seed content, The'se lots should be thoroughly cleaned. before. being° offered for -sale. Purchasers in 'so far as it is possible should buy top grade seed. Clinton ^Nonogenarian,—Mrs. ' J'ais. Lindsay o'6 Clinton, passed 'her 992nd birthday on February: 10th, Mrs.?

But II was mot obsessed by a feeling for same unknown thing, for the desert is a reality. 'Its casts an actual spell. Nothing in civilized life Can cast the spell of ehhohan'tmen't, can grip men's souls end terrify women's hearts like the 'desert - It has to do, then, with the d'o'anin- abing power of wild, lonely, desolate places. Study of 'myse'lf, in relation to the wilderness, d'is'closed many • strange 'facts that took years to ,understand. I preferred to ride, walk, hunt, alone, 'wlhen that we''s 'p'ossi'ble. The lonely places seemed to he mine, and 3 was jealous of them. Always I was wat- ching and 'Iis'tening. All my life 'I have done that, but it was never sig- nlfnc'an't until I became a writer and began to peer 'into my heart. IO'n trips to the desert, of 1which ,I have had many, there was always an hour or a moment of every day or evening when I went alone to sonic ridge or hill, or into the cedars or the sage, there to listen and to watch. This seemed to me to be a commun- ion with the strange affinity of the desert. I had contracted a habit which I t 'followed rwith'ou't thinking, ,But when influence of the desert. The wide, op-'• iI actually did •think of it the inter- pretation held aloof. Why did a va- gue lhaplpiness attend me in the soli- tudes. 'I't became an imperative thing for me to find out what took place in my inin'd during these idle, dreaming hours. The mystery augmented 'w'ith ,the diseavery tiaat at such moments and hours I dial nothing—nothing but gaze over the de'solate desert, over the ,heettt'rful 'puriple-s'age u'pland's, lis- tening tothe wind inthe cedars,' the rustling sand along the rock, the scream of an eagle or cry of a lonely bird. At Cal'aiina Isl'a'nd for several years ,during May and June I used to climb 'the mountain trail that overlooks the !Paclfic,.'and here a thousand times I shut my :eyes and gave myself over to sensorial perception's. 'When I' grasped the thing, always 3 felt it fo'llowe'd by a swift, 'vague joy. Then I lcnew hI had 'found bhe' mysterious secret of the idle 'hours. Profound thought reduced' this 'state to a mere listening, watching, feeling, smelling of the open. It assumed staggering proportions, for 2 began to feel that d had got on the track of the desert •in- :fluence. During these lonely hours' I was mostly a civilized man, but the fleeting trances belonged to the sav- age past. 'Nature developed man ac- cording to the biological facts of evo- lution. Therefore all the instincts, of the ages have been his heritage. When I had a gun in my hands anl' was hunting meat to eat, Why was the chase so th'ri'lling, exciting, -driving the hot blood in gusts over my body? I recalled my 'boy'h'ood days, when, like all boys, I killed for the sake of killing until c'onseien'ce intervened. Is not conscience the difference 'be- tween the wild and the civilized- man —the great factor in human progress? In every man and wom'an there sur- vives the red blood of our ancestors, the primitive instincts.
