Mr. George Swallow. of Goderich township gave an address on aPortl- try.'Farming, he said, now required all the thought and effort 11 Mall C01114 put into the business ; caul as much care was required in regard. to poultry aswith other stock on the farm. They 'need not go back very far to the time wheii. hens were not cared for—allowed to roost wherever they would, a . little grain throwa them ocseasionally, let thou get water as well as,they could, No 'wonder they did not pay. But it WilS very different now, and with improved me- thods men were beginning to find there was Some profit in poultry. Those who said fowls do not pay were those who did not give them proper attention.. Experience showed that fowls would pay as well as any other stock the farmer had, with the right kind of care. To get the best returns they must lay in the winter, when the merket is lagli and to induce thent to lay they must have comfort- able quarters and mest be fed judic- iously. Tire food must be as near as possible to what they get in the sum - trier, grass and • gruts. The speaker fed his fowl clover they. regularly he .ctit it in eunnuea, preserved it in the best condition possible until winter, mixed a little charcoal with it and the hens ate it eagerly. The cost was very little. • The substitute for the grubsthey got in' sumtner was ground bone. A hen was supposed to pity for her own Ned and one dollar a year. Those who . wait till warm weather for their hens to lay would find their. .ehickens late in hatching, and when their fowl .was ready for killing it would be on the market in alnindauce and prices would. lie low. The man who wanted a profit woald resort to the incubator and have his hens ready to fatten early. The ex- Portation of poultry from Canada had increased tenfold in valuein ten years and was now about '1 300,000, and the inilitations were it would in- crease. Failures in keeping poultry were on account of • not understancliag how .to care for them. Ile would ad - vacate a purebred fowl always, It cost no more to raise a purebred than a mongrel, but it took a. good deal more to fatten a mongrel than a thorobred, . Cleanliness in the poultry house was necessary. There Was an unlimited market in Great Britain, for fowl properly fattenedIn rega.rd to what' .was thebest breed of 'fowl, the speaker said there was a•• great di.lierence of opinion. .

At. a meeting of the West Huron Farmers' Institute held in Coderich last week Mr. F. C, Elford, the ener- genic •secretary, took' up the •subject of the seed investigation which has been carried on ay the Dominion De- partment of A,griculture, Samples of seed as sold. by dealers were procured by the department from' various pla- ces and the result' of the. investigation were in some • cases rather startling. Er one case,' that of. Renfrew, the' clover seed contaiaed.one eighth weed seed. The Department this year • is asking the learners to sendascanples of subject introduced by Ur. George Laithwatte of Goderieh township. He I advocated the raising of the standard r to the highest type) that is, the No., x ideal bacon hogs. thirteen years ago Canada's exports in this elase were valued at Aoo,000 ; now they vsere 'I 3,000,000. The comparative percent:, ages of pork produee4 or marketed were calculated thus ; 70 per cent.Nol „ 20 per cent. fat ; 7 par cent soft ; and 3 per cent. bruised. It cost no more to produce what the market called lox- than the inferior product for which less was realized. The speaker detailed the proper methods of leeding and explained the causes of soft, fat and. bruised. pork.
