EDITORIAL NOTES.
Deposits on "notice" in the Canadian
banks are $72,000,000 more than they
were a year ago. The 3niy bank statement
shows that the banks oontinued to
increase their loans in that month.
Young men on the farm, at the thres-
hold of life, who hear only of the enc.
cessee attained in cities. do not know
the prioe that in the majority of oases
is paid for the same. There are no
millionaires on the farm, bat there is
usually it competence, and a green old
age in which to enjoy it, together with
the comforts and pleasures of real home
life from the beginning to the end. -
Weekly San.
During the first four months of the
current fiscal year ending Jaly 31, Can-
ada's total trade amounted to $232,630,
260, more than the trade during the
some period a year ago. The total a.
mount of domestic imports and exports
alone daring the same time was $224,
274,691, a betterment of $39 084,194.
The value of merchandise imported for
consumption during the four months to-
talled $143,322,043, a betterment of $31,
530,301, and domestic produce was ex-
ported to the value of $80,952,578, an in-
crease of ;7,5553,883.
The sixth annual estimate of the crop
in the three western Provinces was pub-
lished by the Manitoba Free Press on
Tuesday, tplaotng the wheat yield of
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta at
101,236,418 bashele,d.ivided by Provin-
ces as follows: Manitoba, 28,660,616
bushels; Saskatchewan, 65,250,000; Al-
berta spring, 5,370,041, winter, 1,955,-
784. The oat crop for the three Provin.
nes is placed at 108,301,000 bushels;
barley, 7,130,770 bushels, and flax, 7,-
729,150 bushel!. When the very light
rainfall and other eooentrioities of the
Beason are taken into account, it seems
nothing short of marvellous that the
Canadian west should produce snob
crops, wheat being leas than eighteen
million bushels short of last year.

Some July Contrasts
On the milk record sheets received at
the Dairy Division, Ottawa from mem-
bers of cow testing associations there
are found some yields of milk and butter
fat for July; for instance, in the Bertie,
a,sooiation one oow that freshened
in May gave 1320 pounds of milk, test•
ing 40 per pent of fat, equal to 52.8
pounds of fat. One herd of 17 oowe at
Glanworth, Ont., has an average of 926
pounds of milk, the herd inoluding 6
two.year-olds. Some cows in this herd.
have given 4840 pounds of milk in 4
months. At Cassel, Ont., 183 cows
858 pounds of milk, 3.6 test, 28.3 pounds
of fat.
The records of many individual cows
in these and other aseooiatione show a
yield of barely 650 pounds of milk and
22 pounds of fat, or less than half of
many good yields.

you to make three very simple deduc-
tions from these remarkable contrasts.
First: there are still plenty of cows kept
for milk production that are not worthy
the name of dairy cows. Second: scor-
es of dairy farmers are gettipg excellent
records from selected herds. Third: re-
cords alone do not increase the yield of
milk and butter,there must bo . intelli-
gent selection of good cows based
on the lessons that individual records
teach.
