The most catefuletillag of the land -is a•necessity.forced opo the' people there. Without cit there is no Crop. Throughout Canada agricultural object lessons etare one straight in -the face wherever one.goes. Thirty bushels to the acre on one side of the road and not worth cutting on -the other. , Thcfree translation of this means, summer -fallow on one side and stubble crop on the" other. And not alone summer -fallow, but good summer -fallow, completed within the proper season and kept clear of weeds. And I am pleased to reeprd the opinion; that the lesson has sunk into the minds of the farmers with a vengeance. It' is commented. en wherever farmers meet together. The contrast between good and: bad farming this year is so obvious that it cannot be misunderstood. While we are only having a fair crop year; the aggregate return to the Western farmer is going to be enormous. He has absorbed a lesson which could only be learned through 'experience.. The past unfavorable years have weeded out the weak brethren on our Canadian farms. Those -Wren who remain are of the type upon whom this year's lesson will not be. lost. Wood Lot Furnishes Important Annual Crop ' Few farmers realize the potential , value of a possible income from a swell -located wood lot. The reason (Lax ,this is probably because that, while they appreciate the shelter and convenience of the `hood lot, they do not understand that it can be made to yield a direct profit year by year just like any other crop. The last census showed that the total value of forest products pro- duced front the Canadian farm wood lots was ti 72,000,000. Compared to other fairs products this was: over `'i' 11 per cent. of all grain crops; over 82 per cent. of, all 'foliage crops; nearly three times the value of all fruit crops; and greater than the to- tal value of the egg production. 1t Wright also be Pointed out that about one-third of the pulpwood- used in. tnadian pulp stills comes from farmers' and settlers' holdings. The. wood lot properly handled can be made to provide shelter for stock, gardens and buildings, and to yield a perpetual crop of considerable va- riety, namely, firewood, fencing, lum- ber pieces and frames for machinery, pumps; wagons, etc., maple syrup and sugar-. products, a variety of edible nuts and in some instances products of medicinal value. It is etjtimnted by one well-known author- ity that the average farmer makes use formally of about'2,400' pieces of lumber each year. If this is not .Motown on the place, it has to be pur- chased and often enough freight paid to have it delivered. A wood lot of 20 acres,, properly handled, will provide all bile fuel need on the farm for all time. It will provide, fuel fence -lost p 2 s and timber and will leave a surplus to be disposed of. at n profit.
