. At the annual meeting of the Ontario
Agricultural Association held last week
at Toronto, the retiring ;President, Mr.
Robert Gibbone, Sheriff i of 1111t011, de-
litiered the annual address. ' 'it is a
lengthy and able peoducttonand aontains
much useful and. interesting information.
.. We subjoin a few extracts, which will
be read with interest by our agricultural
,
Teaders
When our first Exhibition was held
(in 1846), Upper Canada was compara-
tively in its infancy. The Whole Prov-
ince then contained a population of only
about 600,000 The: agticulture, of - the
krovince was then, comparativ.ely speak-
ing, in a very -primitive eondition, • Few
improved laborsaving iinplements had
been 'introduced, and in the whole ex-
tent of the country but 4 mall number
of specimens- of the more raluabletbreeds
of lie,te stock could be found. Now what
a different state of affairs do we :behold
in every respect The papulation of thiti
:Province is at the present time little, it
any, ehort Of2,cloo,000 souls. A v astly-ex-
tended area of land haabeett brought ander
: cultivation - new and im- rated methods
' of culture !have been at opted; labor -
saying machines and impl ements t light
but effective tools of husbandty are every-
where to be met with, and thitlitanufae-
tare of *wallies becomest very unpoitant
element in the indristry of the country.
Large flocks and herds of the moat: valu-
able breeds of live stock are Aa be found
in most of the well settled partsof the
krovince, and bring prime to their enter.
prising owners never dreamed of at the
earlier date above mentioned. Many
new brandies of agricultural and me-
chanical industry, =thought of when
this Associatien: was estabhshed, among
which may be ivied flax-grossing,:the
petroleuni trade, mining, cheese factory
dairying, grape culture, and various
Manufactures, have developed them-
selves, adding greatly to the wealth and
resources of the country. Our extensive'
railway syatem, also, has :grown up dur-
ing the fame- specified, briiging the dis-
tant parts of the Province into easy cam-
manicatiOn with one another, and facili-
tating the conveyance ot prodnee and
goads from one end of the land t to the
other. Moreover, under the Act Of Con-
federation this- Provtitce now forms an
integral Part, and biettfar the moat im-
portant part, of a great *Dominion, stretch-
ing from ocean to ocean, whiele, in the
boundless extent of its fertile lands, the
vastness of its forests, and its rich min-
eral and marine resource*, contains the
elements of a future development and
prosperity practically illiniitable.
In regard to thet agricuituraL interest,
which is the most important of all, and
the mainspring of the rest, there can be
no , doubt- that the improvement: which
has taken place in modes of culture, the
use of improved implements, and the
wide diffusion of the most valnable kinds
of live stock are largely attributable to
the stimulus and eneourageinent impart-
ed by the annual exhibitions of this As
and the kindred eocieties of the
Province. It ia gratifying to observe the signs and
tokens of national prosperity which pre
sent therneelves on every head. Lines of
railroad are being projected and built itt
all directions. Vast sumsi of money are
being expended on ,canal, harbor and
other public improvements. Almost
every village has itatelegraph office. Our
educiational institutiOnithre multiplying.
Manfacturing is being te:atried on to an
extent which augurs well for • the coun-
try's ^advancement Nett sections of
the Province, sueh as the district of Al-
goma, are being openel up, and begin-
ning, to contribute their vast mineral,
fishery and lumber resources to our mar-
kets and revenue. Our population has
been receiving =urinal accessions of late
froni einigration'owing to peculiar cir-
cumstances which have been, at work in
the old country, and the Probability is
that we shall continue to receive a con-
siderable influx of settlers, • composed
largely of the apiculture' class: To
keep pace with the general prosperity,
and to provide food for aur increasing
population, we must continne to improve
in our farm practice. As land and labor
'increase in cost, there must be better
farming in order ,to make agriculture
pay. In the past there bas been :a too
exclusive culture of -grain, until land
once highly fertile has become impover-
ish.ed. A rotation of crops, is needed to
correct this evil. Grass and roots must
alternate with grain if the productive-
ness of the soil is to be maintained. The
improvement of stock is ait object that
requires to be kept steadily in view. It
costa no more to rear a well-bred animal
than a common one -in Most cases it
costs less -and the profits in the end are
far larger. T.n view of the many obvious
advantages which accrue t from keep*g
choice breeds of stock, is it not strange
that so 'lieu farmers continue to raise
inferior kinds ? It is still :only the few
who have one into the keeping of hn-
proved varieties of farm mil:Ma's. Under -
draining is another greatly needectbranch
of agricultural improvement , Large
stretches of land are unproductive, and
many districts of country are malarious,
through neglect of drainage. Earlier and
better crops could be obtaiaed on most
. farms if they were but drainedUnder
the Provincial Statutes, township coun-
cils hav:e it in their power : to promote
this important improvement ancl if the
municipalities were to bestir, themselves,
individuals would be encouraged to do
something. In many cases the drainage
of particular farms depends on a system
of drains, which must be established by
a municipality before individual enter-
prise can accomplish much. Local agri-
cultural societies can do great good by
bringing their influence to bear in lcaali-
ties where municipal action requires to
