LUGGAGE Planting Trees On Farms Observes the Brussels Poct.—There is a Perth County farmer who some years ago started planting trees in a ravine on his property. He said he knew it would never be possible to cultivate the land, and he wanted trees there for two purposes. The first may seem simple — he liked trees — and then he was certain the busk would be a good place for pas- turing cattle in hot weather. The trees are such as are found III ordinary woodiot, but there are a number of spruce and pine as well: The spot today is a place of beauty. That is not al]. Last Winter he took out eight cords of wood, and the stuff he removed was surplus growth or broke ndown trees. He says it looks better now that the eight cords of wood were rexdoved. To, look at the place today one would think trees had never been removed from it. It is much easier to get Young trees today than it used to be, and there are plenty of farms where there is a piece of land which might well be put to growing trees. The people on the land today may not get the benefit, but the next genera- tion will. necklace 1 trunk. 1 week -end case. A.

The next ,seven months brought the figures to 700 ounces. Fish raised at deparmerital hat- cheries are used for stocking suitable waters, angling waters in some cas- es and commercial fishing areas in others. Anything which can be ac- complished toward improving fish strains is, therefore, of a good deal of importance. It is for this reason that the department gives as mucli attention as may be feasible to ex- periments in selective breeding, trout, consider the case of speckle( trout fingerlings raised at the lisp hatchery operated by the Dominion Department of Fisheries at Antigon- ish, N.S., where they reached in 11 months as great a weight as three- year-old fish living under natural con- ditions and foraging for themselves. There were 10 fingerlings in the lot that was studied and all of them were the progeny of selected parents. When first put on the scales these fish babies weighed less than a pound, all told, or, to be exact, 15.2 ounces, but in slightly less than 11 months they had grown to weigh 700 ounces, which simple arithmetic shows to have meant an average of seven ounces each. Other studies — for instance, re- search by fisheries biologists in On- tario—have indicated that trout liv- ing wild take about two and one- half years to reach an average weight of seven ounces, though tit must be kept in mind,' of course, that bodies of water, like parcels of land,, vary in their fertility and fish grow' taster in some. lakes and streams than in others.
