FARMING IN SCHOOLS
CHILDREN'S PAIRS ARE PROVING
AN IMIVIEN814 UCCVISS. ,
Youngsters Take a Keen interest in
Their Exhibits and Are Roused
to a Generous Rivalry Which Be,'
acts Eavoaably Upon the Farallon,
Industry—A Typical Fair at Can,
nington, Ont.
URAL school fairs •are no
longer regarded as novel-
ties; they now form a re-
gular part of the work of
the district representativeS,
says Gordon Furrow in The Toronto
Globe. A few years ago when these'
fairs were in the experimental stage
•
• many of the farmers, the ache
trustees, and even tbe agricultur
representative thought that the id
was a little premature. "How cou
more school children hope to sacces
fully conduct a fair when the mai°
ity of the regular ones were harei
holdingtheir own."
The ordinary country fairs, pa
tieularly this year, are losing some o
their popularity. The reason foa,tri
is not bard to explain. Too many e
bibitione are almost entirely d
voted te horse, racing. This form o
sport, while appealing to maw, doe
not 'suit •tbe farming community as
whole. Agaia, many fairs give to
much encouragealent to the "prof
sional prize winners"—that is men
l
women who make collections of d,If
ferent prize-winning fowl, fruit, Iry
stock, or even quilts, or who take
certain racehorse and enter it at al
the different fairs in the neighbor
hood, the result being that the bul
of tho prize money of that particula
section goes to only a few men. Too
many fairs encourage fancy instead
of utility breeding.
Most of the farming in Ontario is
mixed. The people are interested in
cows that are kept for their milking
or beef qualities, or both; in poultry
that lay eggs and make good .roast-
ers, and in horses that work. The
fairs, en the other band, seem to
have as many classes of exhibits as
possible. Though only taro or three
breeds of cattle may be kept in the
community, you will find classes for
at least half a dozen. Poultry ex-
hibits show a surprising variety.
Fancy fowl carry off more prizes
than those strictly bred for utility
purposes. It is not strange then to
find the town fairs going back and
the rural school fairs coming to the
front.
• Rural school fairs were established
to encourag, "better agrieuliere"
among the children in the country
tcicools, to.teach the pupils the ad-
, ,k ntages and disadvantages of dif-
ferent grain and clover seeds, to show
the results of better breeding of live
stock a -d the best methods of culti-
vation of the soil.
Have they done it 1 A trip to any
of the school fairs would convince the
most skeptical that they have. The
method by which children of ten and
twelve years have been taught what
men of twenty are learning at agri-
cultural colleges is very interesting.
in the spring the District Repre-
sentative visits the country schools.
Ile gives them a general agricultural
talk. Children are asked -what ex-
periments they with to carry out.
Some choose a few pounds of grain,
some flower seeds, and others decide
to take a dozen "bred -to -lay" Barred
Rock eggs. A few enterprising
young farmers will train a colt or
calf for the fair. This year pupils
have also taken up the "war plot"
idea. For this the pupil mai Its all a
piece of ground one rod by two rode,
and plants it in potatoes. The crop
is eitber given direct to the Patriotic
Fund, or the proceeds from the sale
of it are handed over. The children'
do all tbe planting, cultivatiag, and
barvesting of their plots.
Accurate reports are leapt of all the
wcrk. Are the children interested!
Just watch them working in their
plots and you will get sue answer.
According to the District Representa-
tives, parents of the children state
that "they.cannot keep the boys and
girls away fi mi their experiments.
A few days ago the writer was an
interested visitor at the second an-
nual Canuington Rural School Fair,
held under the, direction of District
Representative IL M. Tipper and A.
W. Sirett. The fair was bold in a
little park on the outskirts of the vil-
lage.
About 1 . o'clock children and th
parents began to arrive.Fromen
till 2 in the 'afternuou the clerk' was
kept busy baadling the entries. The
attendance by that time bad reached
nearly five hundred.
The tables in the tent were soon
covered with a great variety of ex-
hibits. Nearly a hundred plates of
splendid apples tempted you as you
entered. In spite or the lateness of
the season 'there was a remarkably.
good display of flowers. Old fasb-
ioned sewing by the girls was
placed opposite their brothers' handi-
work with the jackknife. A strict
watch was kept over the table of
home cooking. Next to the 'wall on
each side was a school exhibit con-
sisting of many varieties of fruits
flowers and or.egetables,,arranged very
attractively. An excellent display of
carrots, mangels, and grain was also
on hand.
Outside a row of chicken elcopS
housed some very fine birds. There
was no fancy fowl liere. Dig healthy

The farming business is now corn

recognized as the most prosperous
business, offering the best future and

QUARANTINE PERIOD
The impression prevails In Ib,
minds of many people of this sectio
that the period, of quarantine for
measles has bean shortened. A cam
munication received from the depart-
ment of the Provincial Board oi
Health states empbntically that them -
has been no change made in the length
of the period of quarantine for this
disease. The quarantine period is
now twenty one days, and the matter
of shortening such period has been
cinder discussion but no definite action
has been taken.
COUNTY COURT
The first session of the counts
court to be presided over by tbe new
co un ty judge, His Honor Judge
Dickson, opened on Tuesday of last
week. There were three criminal cases
and four civil cases. •The charge of
Arson against Roy 'Metcalf, of Galt,
in connection with the brirning of a
liy ery stable at Seaforth was the only
criminal case tried out. The action

Was adjourned to the December session
on rap -test of the defendant's solicitor.
A charge against David Brown of the
theft of furs left in his store by Samuel
Levitz, a former tenant, was not pro-
ceeded with, the complainant not wish•
ing to proceed.
