Ottawa, April 21. --Members of the

views and conclusions diametrically
opposed to each other, and the only
point upon which they appeer to be
thoroughly agreed is that whatever
the polies, is it is bound to be wrong.

Government Registration Sta.
• . Unties.
From the ProOncial Gov't. report
of births, deaths and marriages for the
year ending Dec. 3Ist, 1898, we take it
few statistics: -The popolation adopt-
ed for tbe report of 1897, obtained by
the addition of one per cent., to the
population as given for each ot the
counties and territorial district
2,257,278, hence the estimated populit•
tion for 1898 is 2,279,0207-13iiiing the
year 1898 in Ontario there were 46,599
births; total number of male births 2.3,-
896, female births .22,703. The cities
show a total increase of 174 births over
18417, while a notable decrease appears
in the towns of 174. Huron county has
an increase in 1898 of 3 and for the
province there is a decrease of 724.
J3rueacounty stood next to Renfrew
for the largest decrease in births, Ren-
frew having 169 and Brace 157, The
rate is calculated at 20.4 or a decline of
.5' per 1000. In Goderich (where the
Division Registrar states that the doe -
tor does not report births) the returns
are low, being only14 per ioOo, while
the contrary they are particular in
death retort's and the ratio in this re-
spect hag increased in two years , from
7,5 to 11.5. in Clinton much of the

rate is stationery at let the • death

Good 'Address.
At e recent meetingof the Weet
Huron Fat trou s' Inetitute the follow-
ing address was was givens -eliciting, by
Mr J. N. Km nighs.m, of Benruiller :-
Soiling is's. systero. of teedingfarm
live stock iq stables .dm ing the sum-
mer with green 'or ured foodsas oppos-
ed to pastutirg. VVhile all successful
farmers are convinced of the benefits
of ps.rtial selling, yet all are not con-
vinced as to the practibility of total
soiling, where land is poor or broken,
the inducements to follow this system
.will not be so great as where the land
is good and easily worked. However,
the system will have to be followed to
a greater extent than formerly, as the
pastures always fail throughout July
and 'August, and ure all know that all
stock needs lobe feel to their utmost
capacity to be fed" plefltably. The
flies, especially the horn -fly, have be.
come scentimerous that what nourish-
ment stock receive goes to Withetand
, the ravages of Oa flys ,
• Some of the advantages ofsoiling
are • Thr saving of • land and food ;
abolition of fences said weds; hammy.
,ed,eendition,of stock ;-inc;reased quan-
tity and better quality of manure ; in•
creasied p:roductiveness of soil.
The saving of tiled results froea the
fact that it hue peen found by exper-
ience shat 1..Q acres df soiling crops are
coal to from 20 to 30.aci•es ot pasture.
We can take several cottings from the
+ante Plot, and the croja is more outri-
,tions, because the late pasture becomes
woody and.dry. All the food in soiling itt
eaten up,as none of it,becomes too. ma-
tur e nod none of itisdeseroyed through
trampling, as is the • case in pasture.
The crops not required for feed can • be
.either cured for winter feed or allowed
to linen. Fences may be entirely done
at ay with by total-soilingy but -by -par-
• tial soiling i his advantage could not he
obtained. Weeds would be completely
abohshed by soiling, together with a
good rotation. By eating crops green
the weeds would becut More the seeds
would be matured and consequently
are destroyed. In pasturing a greater
part of the 'weed seeds lie in the sod
waiting for a favorable opportunity -id
Igerminate in a grain crop and thus in-
crease their number. This in itself is a
great argument in favor of soiling, 89
a great part of Our lands are becoming
over run with weeds. •
The stock will be kep better con-
• dition in stablest. then eing out in the
heat and troubled. with 'flies. Anyone
who has tried keeping calves in .during
their first summer has, no doubt, notice
ed their improved condition. This,. no
cloubtsis due tc their tender constitu-
tion and their inability- to stand the
hardships of pasturing. Horses are al-.
sr. in much better condition for their
work when stabled and also present a
better appearance. Hoge, if allowed
their own way, will lie in the shade
during the heat of the days and look
fat their food in the cool of the even.
or early morning. Thus we see • that
all live stock on the farm, with the ex.
teption of sheep and poultry, are bene.
fitted by being stabled in the heat of
summer. They do not need to expand
much energy to obtain their food, and
consequently are enabled to produce
more weight or milk.
Another great advantage is the in-
creased quantity and improved quality
of the manure. In pasturing the great-
er part of the manure is wasted by be-
ing dropped in the lanes or under the
trees, or in the fence, corners, where it
is of no benefit. fire rest of the man-
ure becomes so dried, up and evaporat-
ed as to be of httle use, but by stabling
the stock we are enabled to apply the
manure frgeti and, direst to .:,the.

"wish you would call attention to a
rather delicate matter, but one that is
becoming a nuisance. 'It is not uncom.
mon to meet three ladies abreastcin the
