Blames Knowledge. Lack "1 don't think the Goverment re- alizes What it is all about. I would like,to see Mr. King spend a day in these fields when the temperature is up around 90 degrees. If he had to get don+n,on his lbaees for :hams and weed ,these beds and then at the end of, the season find he couldn't even get the cost of his seed out' of the crop he would soon put the duty back on again," said Mr. Joynt, who added that he is a Conservative in politics but a great admirer of Premier Mit- chell Hepburn, another onion grower. Henry Phyle says he has been a cripple since he was 13 years of age. Last year he sowed and harvested a ton of the Dutch Sett onions. The seed cost him. $14 and he and his wife seeded. and tendedthe crop all summer. This spring, rather than throw his crop away, he was forced to sell the whole harvest for 810, he said. Paul Boa,who traps and otherwise makes a living and contributes to his home, harvested three-quarters of a ton ,of onions. He declares he was ulable to sell them and filled a 25- fobt well with the crop. The seed, for this crop cost in the neighborhood of 812. T. C. Joynt planted over an acre last year and told his two 'teem -age sons that jf they cultivated the crop it would be diviee-d three ways. The crop was cultivated, harvested, but when it came to marketing, said Mr. Joynt, there wasn't anything to divide three ways. . Every grower in the district had substantially the same story to tell when interviewed. While they have not abandloned their crops this .year, much will depend upon the fall and spring markets as to whether enions will continue to be the most produc- tive crop in this district.

Rowe, eminent Toronto geologist, 350 Bay St., Toron- to. brought in Rowe-Bruette No. 3 gas and oil well -10 miles southwest of Chateame-with a daily potential flow of gas of 4.000.000 cubic feet. This well, in the first six months, paid back $200 in dividends in monthly cheques on each $500 inveseed. and this well is now producing 41 gravity oil (all sold to the Imperial Oil Co. at $2.17 r harre49-. besides -41.e, gas flow, Early this spring. his next well - Johnson No. 1 -was brougbt in with a gas flow of over 2.000.000 cubic feet. This latter well was financed by a To- ronto financial house for their own nv estrn e of. Last week Mr. Rowe brought in Prairie No. 6 to a depth of 3.214 fe-et and it is thought the flow of gas will exceed even that in Rowe-BrUette No. 3. After blowing wide open for over two hours, it showed over 4,500,000 cubic feet, with a slight show of oil at 3,151 feet. This latter well is now being added td the Dominion Gas Cos main pipe line which runs 100 feet distant from the well. This week the derrick is beine, erected for the next well, Rowe; Bruette No. 4 which has a most promising location, determined from wells completed during the pest 12 months. Interest heleers. in the for- mer wells are participating in the flnancing �f Bruette No. 4, which wel will be completed in the next 50 to 60 days -in time for the heavy winter demand. Gas from all these wells is on contract to the Dominion Gas Co. Following completion of Rowe- Bruette No. 4 -Prairie No. 7 is con- templated for winter drilling. This news will be of interest to interest holders in this locality.-Advt. • Practise Strip Farming Strip farming has arrived in east- ern Canada.
