Estimates Of The Areas Sown. Variations. In The Testi
Reports received at Ottawa, July
1.1, from correspondents at the end of
June enable the Census and Statistics
Office to issue finally revised estimates
of the areas sown to spring cropsthis
year and also estimates of the areas
devoted to the later sown cereals and
hoed crops, With regard to wheat
the crape are entirely confirmatory
of those issued a month ago,. and the
area under wheat in Canada is there-
fore finally placed at 9,810,300 acres or
57,000 acres more than in 1012. The
area in spring 8,000,500 acres or 13,100
acres more than in 1912 and the area;
to be harvested of fail wheat remains
at 825,800 acres. Oats are estimated
to occupy 0,640,400 acres, an increase
of 420,500 acres, barley 1,430,800 acres,
an increase of 15,600 acres, rye 127,200
acres, a decrease of 12,000 acres.
The acreages under the later sown
cereals and hoed crops are estimated
to be as follows --Buckwheat 303,600,.
flaxseed 1,288,000, corn for husking
290,800, beans 58,850, potatoes 407,800,
turnips, etc,, 215,900, sugar beets
19,250 and corn for fodder 277,990.
These are increases in the case of
potatoes, turnips, etc., sugar beets and
corn for fodder but decreases in the
case of the other crops.
For the three Northwest provinces
of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Al-
berta the total wheat area is finally
estimated at 9,013,800 acres, as com-
pared with 8,901,800 acres last year ;
that of oats. at 5,305,800 acres compar-
ed with 4,913,900 acnes and that of
barley at 857,700 acres compared with
809,900 acres—these differences re-
presenting increases of 52,000 acres
for wheat, 301,000 acres for oats and
47,800 acres for barley, or 401,700 acres
for the three crops.
During June the crops throughout
Canada maintained generally ` the
favorable average of a month ago.
On June 30 the condition, expressed
in percentage of the usual standard of
100, taken as °representing the promise
of a full crop, was as follows ---Fall
wheat 81.40, spring wheat 87.80. oats
87.71, barley 88 30, rye - 85 05, peas
87.43, mixed grains 87.12, hay .and
clover 71.52, alfalfa 77.23 and pasture
82.31. By provinces the condition is
between 80 and 00 for the Maritime
provinces, Quebec, Ontario and Mani-
toba. In Saskatchewan and Alberta
the outlook at the end. of June ap-
peared to be especially promising, as
the condition was above 90 in all
cases excepting Fall wheat, the con-
dition of which in Alberta was 70,27.
Estimates of the numbers of farm
live stock in Canada at June 30 are
given as follows — Horses 2,535,000,
milch cows 3,06.1,900, other cattle
3,380,400, sheep 2,418,400, swine 3,254,-
400. These represent increases over
the estimates published last year for
all descriptions except "other cattle."
The estimates are based upon the
final figures of the Census of 1911 for
all the provinces except Saskatchewan,
Alberta and British Columbia; so that
the totals are still subject to final
revision upon completion of the census
results. The condition of all classes
of live stock was reported as especial-
ly favourable on June 30. being 100 or
above for horses, milch cows, sheep
and swine and 97 for cattle other than
milch cows.
An Optimist -
Sammy was not prone to over-exer-
tion in the class -room ; therefore his
mother was both surprised and delight-
ed when he came home one croon with
the announcement, "I got one hundred
this morning."
"That's lovely, Sammy !" exclaimed
his proud mother. "What was it in?"
"Fifty in reading and fifty in 'rith-
metic," was Samrny's reply,
Instantly Killed.
Once again within a few days, this
community has been plunged into
deepest gloom, On Wednesday even-
ing of this week Wm. H. Maize, a
highly respected and esteemed resident
of the Fourth Con., of Ashfield, fell off
a load of hay and broke his neck, death
coaling instantaneously. Mr, Maize
was assisting bis son, Roy, with the
hay crop and was on a Load of hay in
the field when the horses started, un-
expectedly to Mr. Maize, at the com-
mand of one of his sone and he was
thrown oft the load, Lighting on his
head on the ground below. Dc. Case
was immediately summoned but life
was already extinct, his neck having
been broken. The blow to his wife
and family was a severe one and the
whole countryside is deeply .stirred
over the distressing accident.—Dun-

Frequent experin ente have shown
that one single teat of a cow's milk is
not reliable as an indication of what
percentage of fat her milk normally
contains, A great many well known
causes affect the test, also some causes
that are unknown at present even by
the closest students, This "variation
in the test" is one of the puzzles ofthe
cow's individuality, and, because of
these puzzling variations it is advis-
able to take composite samples at in-
tervals so as to ascertain the average
test,
Some recent painstaking investiga-
tions at one of the dairy research sta-
tions in England with seven cows for
two days, even covering such details
as a separate test of eleven successive
pints, three times a day, from the four
quarters of the udder, show that while
the average test with the cows giving
thirty pounds of milk per day was 3 0
per cent, the variation was all, the way
from only six tenths of one per cent up
to nine and a half percent of fat.
This is clear proof of bow misleading
one single test may be. If the real
earning capacity of each individual
cow is to be computed, it must a on
basis of her annual production of milk
and fat less the cost of feed ; regular
weighing and testing give that know-
ledge which every factory patron
should have of ea,,h cow he keeps.
TRY IT.
Angus Carney, who has announced
that be is his own grandfather, bas his
neighbors doing mental arithmetic
which makes the age of Anne a mere
primary problem. He has compiled
the following :--""I met a widow with
a grown daughter and I married the
widow. Then my father met my step-
daughter and married her. That
made my wife the mother-in-law of
her father-in-law, and made my step-
daughter my step -mother. My father
became wy step -son.
"Then my, step -mother, the daughter
of my wife, bad a son. That boy was,
of course, my brother, because he was
my father's son. But ho was also the
son of my wife's daughter and there-
fore my grandson. That made me
grandfather of my wife's grandson.
Then my wife had a son. My mother-
in-law, the step -sister, is also his
grandmother, because he is her step-
son's child. My father is the brother-
in-law of my child, because the step,
sister is his wife. I am a brother of
my own son, who is also the child of
my step -grandmother. I am my
mother's brother-in-law. My wife is
her child's aunt. My son is my father's
nephew and T am my own grand-
father.

BREVITIES.
Strict punctuality is a cheap virtue.
Purpose is what gives life a mean-
ing. .
Allthat is human must retrograde if
it does not advance.
He who has not the spirit of his age
has all the misery of it,
To be saved is only the salvation
from our own selfishness,
By the streets of "By and By" one
arrives at the house of "Never."
He who knows right principles is
not egaul to him who loves them.
There is a just Latin axium, that he
who seeks a reason for everything sub-
verts one,
A mind that is conscious of its in-
tegrity scorns to say more than it
means to perform.

MUSICAL SURPRISE.
Big Number At Canadian National
Will Be A Novelty,
The musical surprise, a tuneful med-
ley of marching and music, is one of
the big novelties prepared for this
year's Canadian National Exhibition,
Toronto. That it is a big number is
evidenced by the fact that eight bands,
100 Cadets and 100 Boy Scouts will be
worked into its intricacies. John
Henderson of London will stage it,
and that means it will be artistic in
every detail. •

TWO GOOD
FARMS
Bold Burglars.
During Thursday night of last week
burglars broke into Black's gent's
furnishing store and C. 0. Lee,s hard-
ware store on the Square, in both
cases entrances being effected through
the rear windows. A few trifles were
taken at Black's, but in Lee's a more
determined effort was made, particu-
Iarly for money. In this place two
revolvers were taken and a couple of
knives. Videan's feed store and Cult's
grocery store were also entered, and at
the latter they took an old revolver
and about $3 50 cash. They then
visited. Sault's cold storage plant,
where they helped themselves to beer.
13y the marks left they spent the re-
mainder of the night sleeping off their
drunk, leaving behind a Christy hat.
The police got busy on Friday morn-
ing and Chief .Postlethwaite and
Crown Attorney Seager, with F. E.
Burdette in his auto, overtook two
men near Kuntz's old brewery on
Saltford hill. The men started to run)
and the Chief after them, and
near the McEwen salt block he
caught one of them by the arm when
the fellow threatened him with a
piece of scantling, and then as the
Chief turned a bit to pull his baton the
two men ran like deers and were pur-
sued into the gully north of the village,
where later .on one of them was cap-
tured, but the other trade good his
escape and is still at large, The man
captured gives the name Frank Syl-
van, claiming to have come here from
London via Stratford, He will be
brought before the P. M. for prelimi-
nary hearing on Saturday.—[Goderich

WORRY.
(By George Matthew Adams.)
If you realizedjust what Worry is
you would stop using it in your busi-
ness. For Worry is the name given
by the Devil to his choicest brand of
smelling salts and the more you get
into the habit of using them the more
you +corns to know what Hell is really
like. Here'aAn antidote for Worry—
Smile, Smile, Smile,—Smile!
For where Smiles are, Worry is not,
Worry is .just plain poison. It is the
most treacherous of poisons, for it not
only eats into the finest powers of
your mind and life but it spreads and
radirtes like a contagious disease.
Worry can do no harm in the atmos-
phere of cheer, great faith, hope—
Work,
Work, Work, Work,—Work,
How useless Worry is—how foolish 1
Realize but thio arad you will very soon
banish ;t and forever abhor it. Clan
you think of a pitosle instanics where
Worry rendered ou a. service? Well,
then, get rid of it,
Smile, Smile, Smile, -Smile 1
Worry never dick and never will
bring anything to pase. It never earn.
ed a cent and it never helped a human
being. But if you keep busy, if you
ate continually, seeking to render some
service, you will never have time nor
Incl ination to Worry.
Work, Work, Work,—Work.
