Ploughing
Ploughing ie, one of the most im-
pertant of all tillage operations. The
kind of ploughing done is quite large-
ly indicative of the final condition of
the soil following later tillage opera-
tions. The object oR ploughing is to
commence the preparation et a seed
bed which •will result in the optimum
tilth, other things being equal, to
produce the maximum germination
'and growth of crops planted therein.
Ploughing should be done, therefeie,
in such a way as to 'best loosen the
soil and provide a desirable tilth,
and at the same time to 'cover all
trash and crop residue, as well as
manure's which are to be ploughed
down.
In experiments conducted on sev-
eral of the Dominion Experimental
Farms, results show that it makes
very little difference what depth or
width ploughing is done, providing
the furrow is ploughed at a uniform
'd'epth and is cut and turned the reg-
ular width of the plough. That is to
say one should not attempt to turn
a 13 -inch furrow with a 10 -inch
plough. A field ploughed in this way,
with irregular depressions for "hog
troughs" .all aver it, is not only un-
sightly but the soil is not properly
loosened, weeds are not cut. and it
is very difficult to prepare a fine, uni-
font. seed bed.
The time to plough is rather im-
portant, although gondi•tions are not
always ideal at the most convenient,
or in soim.e cases, the most suitable
time. 'If Ian'd is ploughed when too
wet the soli is lileely to puddle 'and
become very hard and of poor tilth.
If p'lou'ghed when too dry the laabOr
of ploughing is increased and a cloddy
condition may result. This is par-
tieularly true of clay soils. It is not
so important in light sandy soils. Fall
ploughing is generally recommended.,
and from the standpoint of weed con-
trol ,sum'm'er ploughing topworking
and replcnghing le Iatte fall is very
effective.
In order to plough down crop resi-
diue especially where sod is 'being
ploteghed, a jointer or'ekimmer is a
very important part of the equip-
ment. Sad Should not ibe ploughed!
Without using it, as it is impossible

The Last of the
Lords and Ladies.
• lIn the last fourteen years there has
been a bloodless revolution in Eng-
land, the significance of 'which we
have only just begun to realize.
The England of my childhood was
a land of •proseperity and: ease, of
great 'houses and vast estates. Now
the old aris'to'cracy that owned them
has been practically wiped out. ,
It (began in 1914, the principal rea-
son being, of course, financial: Mon-
ey and values depreciated steadily.
while taxes and especially death du-
ties, were inerease.d because of the
growing burden of debts anid' expene-
es. Two and even three successive
heirs of several farnilies were killed
in action, yet the state claimed a pro-
portion of the value of the land on
each death. The valuation for pur-
poses of death duty is so high that in
nine cases out of ten there is no net
income after deductions for repairs
and upkeep have been made.
Under these circumstances one
might think any (man a fool who
sticks to his land. The fact is, how-
ever, that even' if he wants to sell he
Must do 0o at a bad less, for -the ac-
tual 'selling price of land has dropped
enormously in 'England.
rManry things have cotrnibined to crip••
ple the landowner, and it is not sur-
prising that so many large estates
have gone, and with the passing of
them the country has lost, temporar-
ily at least, a definito•factor in En.g-
Li=h 1uf e -
The curious temperament of the
English 'of every class accounts for
the fact that this changing of the old
order carne about bloodlessly and'
without any bitterness, without strife
between landowner and proletariat,
although a great deal of the expendi-
ture has definitely gone to the bene-
fit of the working man, like the dole,
health-'inisuran'ee schemes, education-
al improvements, ete.
To my mind the reason for thi,
lack of bitterness lies in the fact
that the English aristocracy is pri-
marily .one 'of position and not of
blood. For instance, the second son
on an earl is not an earl but an Hon-
orable So -and -So, hut .his son is a
comnoner, a plain Mr. So -and -So.
Tlherefore an English titled family
may have kin in any and every -walk
of life.' 'Individual taste, in occupa-
tion, thontght or fi iendship, runs un-
checked in almost any English fam-
ily of intelligence, Personal taste rs
respected before anything else,
The systems works as well the other
way. A miner's son may have a
yearning for mtusi'c, or for politics., or
for agriculture, and his people will
not interfere. Therefore.England has
always 'had men rising to e'mi'nence
from the bottom of the ladder—Ram-

no isolation for the aristocracy as
there was in royalist France or czar-
ist Russia. Outside of a few ideaI-
is•ts who talk of the People with a
capital :P, and.' of a few abstract
idealists, the average English land-
owner regards the People as people,
not as a problem or a crusade, as
persons like anyone else, even though
he*`nay not share all 'their tastes.
The English race has a deep-root-
ed suspicion of abstranxions which,
coupled with the love. of the lend it-
self, has done -more than anything
else to save England from the fate
of France and Russia. For the land
in England can never be an abstract
idea. The nation knows too much a-
bout it, therefore it is a concrete
fact. The love of the soil is common
to all classes of the English' •people
and is an immediate source ofunder-
standing and a bond between therm.
In England the dying aristocrate
onlyrights, but for
fights not for his r-tg rts,
hi§ land. Therefore more sympathy
than triumph is felt when he is fin-
ally beaten.
The process is going on all over
the country. When trouble comes,
the landowner seell_s all his treasures'
first, and when all is gone he tries; t'
keep his house in some way. Some
are lucky, because their houses hold a
'thousand things ,of historical interest
to the general public, so that the:/'
can be turned into museums or other-
wise thrown open to. the public, in
whi'eh case they avoid taxation. The
earl of Lytton has turned his antes •
teal home, Kenebworth, into a mus-
tier ; "
But there are 'many places as old
and as /beautiful which could not earn
their upkeep as museums. The land-
owners usually try to let then, but
in these., hard times not many people
can' afford to rent a mansion. 1f all
fails, the landowner willsell his house
and settle in one of his own farms.
This is the ultimate proof of the
landowning inrtin'ct.' My own brother
is 'a case in point. The death duties
on Whitim'gehamte, the family estate
in Scotland, were enormous. After
letting .the shooting and fishing aryl
the home farm, he shut up most of
the house itself and lived in one cor-
ner of it. He sold all the treasures
that could fetch money, and is now
trying to let the house. If that fails
he will sell it and most of the estate,
settle in one of the farm, and work
the land himself, alongside with his
erstwhile tenants, who will sympa-
thize and understand and help brim,
as much es they can. Because only
the land matters and for this reason
they wrovld know how he•fcels about
it.
Many of the big houses that have
heen sold have linen turned into hotels
and .ctunt.ry clubs, but many. have
been Thought up by manufa.eturers
who had made gond and wanted tb
spend their money at leisure. ,And
,there again we have the landowning
instinct. As soon as an Englishmen
makes m'on'ey he has to hey a place
in the country. If he really cares
for land and does tot consider it
only as a stopping stone to county
society, his aei,gh'bors will regard him
amicably and help hint in every way.
If the new owner is the right sort,
who have lived and worked there for
generations, the attitude of the neigh-
bors 'w•ilfl be very kindly, But if he
does not really care for the landbhe.
will find himself regarded as an alien
by both gentry and working people,
and will sooner or later be compelled
bo give. it up.
Even here it is a • qu'estion rot of
money, but of ,personal taste. If
there should ever be a revolution in
England; it, would be hetween.town
and country, • There there is often bit-
terness and • almost always a lack of
understanding. The land .worker feels
not without justioe, that legislation
is always in favor of the industrial
centers and the factory hands. All
the agricultural risings in England
have had this resentment at the root.
The difference of outlook between the.
factory man and ,the farm hand is in-
evitable, .because they lead different.
lives and have different interests'.
Therefore there is not a man among
the farm hands who is in favor of
nationalization of the land. I£ they
had more money they feel that they
would buy landthemselves, and
as to
government-owned land, they have
seen enough incompetence in its man-
agement to realize how bad state ad -
Phe only person who would pos iblsr
benefit financially from nationaliza-
tion would .he the large landowner,
because if he would be paid compen-
sation in 'taxation rates he would be
