DRUMM MATTERS -
The Fruit Crop. -In' Huron, one of
the greatestapple producing counties
the crop this year Is considered
only fair. The quality is, on the
whole, good. The Baldwin, the old
tandby, ia-a light yield, so are the
Spies and Twenty Ounce. Kings and
Ben Davie are fairly plentiful. Rus-
sets are this year a full crop, - and
Greenitigs the beet crop 'probenly of
all. Snows of good quality are, as
usual, . 'scarce. Early apples are a
•good crop. After a couple of off
years, the Duchess is again very
plentiful, and, 76 cents a barrel is
what the farmers realize for these.,
The price for winter apples is non
expected AO ,be high, Pears and
plums are an unusually light crop
throughout the ,country,
A Seaforthite on Hie Travels. -Mr.
William Robb, who left here a coup's/
of months ago, on a trip to the -West,
writes home from ' the 1Par1< River
district, North Dakota, Where many
former Huronites are ' becated, say-
ing : Tim farming here is wean 1 enle
bad, wild oats a,nd mustard being the
most 'numerous of noxious weeds ; we
have here .about t all the weeds that
grow. in Ontario, and about all that
do not. Land here is like Human-
4ty, ; it requires close watcning and
coestant work to keep it all clean.
There Is so much land to gct over
that one gets careless, as a matter
of course; a few weeks more or less
will make no great difference. so
they are allowed to increase, to
the , farmers' hurt. But With these,
drawbacks this le a great country. It
Is now twenty-seven years since my
first visit to this country. I then
travelled over many miles of land,
where you might look until your eyes
were sore without seeing a single
hut. One may new' gee first-elaes
-farm buildings aired no end of crops.
One's eyes become tired looking over
the vast fields. I could give quite a
number of nun& well known iti South
Huron4 who came to North Dakota
more than twenty years ago with a
light purse, and are now loaded down
witli land and. s h Farms of 160
acres sellfrom •four thousand to
seven thousand dollars,- according to
munitions as to improvement and lo-
cality. The binders are mostly eight'
feet wide, but there is one old[ Tuck-
ersmith boy, Mr. G. Sproat, wleo op-
erates a binder twelve feet in width,
which goes before the horses. What
seems strange to fee is the number
of horses that are kept by the farm-
ers. My son Charles, with whom I
am at present, has _fourteen working
,horses, and he is only on a compara-
tively email scale, having only 660
acres, while there ale some who farm
4,000 end keep 100 horses; some �t
the horses da more than fivei
months' work in the year. All good
farmers stable and feed their work-
ihg horses or /plospective working
horses on grain,- as there is net
much work for horses between seed-
ing and harvest. Large quantities of
oats are coneumed by the horses dur-
ing the year, enough to scare any
old Huron farmer. Some farmers use
traction eiegines to plough. I leave
not seen any in operation.
