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!

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.

E HURON EXPOSITOR Etablished 1860 McLEAN BROS., Publishers between the classes, so t'hat there'is' prepared to learn from the people tanfinistratrio'np , af' the land eauld bee 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 a richer man than he is. • The theory that the land belongs to the people has no - meaning what- ever. • For iand canno5 be reckoned. . in terms of money. It is life. .Meme. love their acres' almost• as they love their children, and want•thn_i; land to, continue through the years elle ram Ins their name. The Erglt,rh people IIr3 too -material for nationalization ' of land or any other form of .•gum= munism. The, whole situation •is one of fin- ance. The old order has changed, because "no one in England has inameyF enough to maintain the• big estates.. It has happened 'before, so many times. eBut then slowly the order in (built up again, and another landown- ing aristocracy rises, curiously like the last one in essentials. I anli glad of it. The love of the land is a fundamental characteristitr of the English race, and to that we owe our sanity, philosophy and hum- or, the yirtues that are most needed ' now.
