LACK OF INTEREST IN THE FALL FAIRS What is the matter with the exhi- bitors' side of the Fall fairs this year? The excuse given by judges, secretaries and some exhibitors, for the shortage of entries is the sraall amount of prize money offered, while may farmers claim that those who have been in the habit of exhibiting in former years are too busy with their regular farm work to spare time for preparing crop samples and live stock for show. Whatever the reason is, the faact remains that at many of the fairs held in good agricultural sections, the list of en- tries is very short; shorter by far than , was the case during the war years, when help was more scarce and every farmer was crowded with work necessary to _ produce food enough to maintain the civilians and fighting men. If, as is so frequently stated, the Teaser], for the leek of interest in -making exhibits of farm produce and live stock is due to insufficient prize money, it is _a pity that the farmers would not recognize the fact that a good Fall Fair brings notice to a district, that is of far greater *value to each individual than any prize-rrioney that could be -offered in ordinary eircumstances. A big show -of goad sheep, for instance, is sutil- eient to attract buyers of breeding stoek, wool and sheep and lambs for slaughter, with the result that niark- •eting is simplified for the sheepmen of the community. The same result is secured if the district gains a re- putation of exti a fine products in -the line of farm or garden, crops; and such reputation can be gained through consistent showing of good stuff at the Fall Fair. Each district has more or less of a specialty in the way of agricultural production. Sheep, beef, or dairy cattle, horses, potatoes, grain or truck crops, any one -of these may be the leading product -of a section; and it is up to the breed- ers and growers to see that the repu- tation of the section for production -of its specialty is maintained. Taking one line of live stock for 'example; there have -been shows in -some of the best heavy -horse districts in *he province this Fall at which only one animal appeared in a num- ber of the classes. Sometimes the animal was worthy of the first prize, -sometimes it was not; but in nearly every case the 'first prize Money was awarded and the owner went back home to hang up the red ribbon in 'his barn. Then, if a buyer from a distance happens to visit the barn where a totally unworthy animal is shown as the winner of first prize in his class at the local fair, his esti- mate of the quality of the horses of the district is likely to be a very poor one. As regards the samples of farm and 'garden crops shown, at the Fairs this Fall, they have been excellent, as might well be expected in such a -splendid season; but the number of exhibits has been too trifling to at- tract particular attention to the kind of crop represented. Too often the prize money has gone to some grower who operates in a backyard or vil- lage lot and who's exhibit is not at all representative of the line of crops grown in the district in a commercial way. Two or three cabbages, one lunch of onions, or one bag of grain in each class, is not the kind of ex- hibit to call the attention of the visi- tor to the vegetable or grain growing possibilities of a section of the coun- try, no xnatter how good the samples may be. There have been some Fall Fairs this season that proved an exception to the rule of lack of interest on the Tart of exhibitors. In such cases, the success of the fair from an agricul- tural standpoint was due to the spe- cial effort-- of outstanding members of the community -usually persons not directly interested in farming, or at least not dependent on farming for a living. Surely, where men of means and of large` business exper- ience. recognize the importance of the Pall Fair as a means of boost- ing a particular section of the coun- try, and of promoting the interest of the. country as a whole, the actual farmer can be expected to play a bigger part in backing an institution that exists principally in his direct interest.

She reports a most pleasant time. - Mr. Isaac Jarrott suffered a heavy loss -when six young cows, which were all milking at the time, got into the orchard, where they ate so many apples that they died from the effeets within-. a few hours of each' other.

Children's Outing. -Miss Etta Jar- rott, the efficient teacher in Section 14, Hay, during the week entertained her scholars to an afternoon's outing when they visited some of the points of interest in this section. Cars were provided by Miss Eliza Thomp- son and Miss Greta Ivison and were filled with a merry lot of children. The first point visited on, the trip was the big hole on lot 10, eoncession 5, Hay. The hole is some forty yards across and over 50 feet deep. In the spring it is often full of water, but all that flows in soon finds it way out through the bottom and logs disap- pear in the same way. After a short stay here, during which some of the more venturesome found their way down the sides to the bottom, th:e party went on to Exeter where they visited Trivitt Memorial church where all got a fine view of the surrouuding country from the church tower, which houses the beautiful chimes. Next they visited the Times Printing Office where the wonders of the printing press and type setting machine were viewed with interest. From there they went to the Exeter Canning Com- pany's plant where the intricate ma- chinery which fills the cans, caps them and carries them along to the dumping point, all done automatically, the big cooking cauldrons, each hold- ing 80 dozen cans at a time, where they are stearned for '75 minutes, were a great source of excited wonder and interest. Then there were the husk- ing machines and the two large silos, each holding 500 tons of ensilage which is sold out to the farmers of the district during the winter at $2.50 a ton. Then the combined public and high schoel was visited, after which the party left Exeter to see the fam- ous soldier's monument on the grounds of school section No. 1, Usborne, which is a beautiful memorial, consisting of a fine white marble statue of a Can- adian soldier, which was carved in Italy: The statue stands upon a granite base on which are earved the names of the soldiers from the section, the whole monument standing about 15 'feet high. This was the first memorial a.the kind in Ontario and thousands have come from aU parts of the country to see it. Fiorn borne .the party returned to their homes, all tired out but intensely pleased with their 20 mile sight see- ing trip. During the -greater part of the trip they were accompanied by Miss Jarrott's former teacher, Mr. W. H. Johnston, who now lives in Exeter and teaches in No. 2, Hay. He is acquainted with all these points of interest and acted as guide. RENSALL IL F. 0. -Mr. McKee, of the Live Stock Branch of the U. F.
