The area of land sown to peas is now

of the county have had a profitable
year, .owing to the high prices ruling in
188/, but we fancy that the amount of
, cheeses and butter produced has scarce-
ly been so large as in years past. The
amount of cattle -feeding this winter for
the English market is not so large as
last year owing to he -failure of the hay
erop and the high price of coarse grains,
but the prospect of fair prices will per --
haps compensate in some degree for
the deficiency in the number now fat-

Good. Oats for Seed.
Last seaeon I got some seed oats of
the WIETTF,RUSSIAN variety from Messrs.
Laidlaw & Fairley and Win. Rehill,
Seedsmen of Seaforth. I got so much
per bushel for sowing, threshing and
delivering the product of this seed in
the Seaforth market. The seed was
procured from Rochester, in the State
of New York. .It was very clean and
free from noxious weeds. The straw
makes fine feed and • stood well up.
Part of the field was low, and although
the crOp was very heavy the grain stood
well up. The crop is now all threshed
and taken to market, and yielded nearly
70 bushels per acre. I showed a sample
of them at the Seaforth shew last fall,
and took the first prize for white oats.
I consider them one of the very best
varieties of white oats I have seen.
A Blida time ago I saw a !statement
in THE EXPOSIEOR to the effect that
somewhere 700 bushels of oats had been
threshed "in the short space of three
hour." When cleaned my oats turned
out 740 bushels, and the whole was
threshed in three hours by Mews.
Hinchley Brothers of Hullett.
I have no hesitation in reoommend-
ing these oats to farmers generally as
