Huron had a. bean crop worth a. million dollars , last season. The .1916 crop was twice as big as the crop of the previous year. This year `the bean -growers are planning for a crop that will net them nearly two million dollars. The acreage devoted to bean -growing in the Hensall: district is beim doubled,• and in the Exeter district it is being .trebled. Given favorable weather, Huron's bean crop in 1917 will ,be equivalent in :value to the 1''014 bean crop of the entire provitce- But that is partly due to the.' sharp' rise in prices. brqught about by the great demand for beans' required to feed the"allied armies.' JitO0EBEANS--GROWN • ' The Globe . correspondent had- an interview with. Mr. IVornian E; Cook, of Cook Brothers, Hensel!, who is popularly •known in these parts'es "the bean king 'of Huron county”- Mr“ Cook.'paid 'out last year 110 less. than $600000 to the farmers*. of the Hensall-Zurich-Exeter' district for beans.. Theacreage- devoted to bean4growingg in the .Hensall district • this year, he said; will. be 'double what. it was = last; year; -while ,about Exeter, according to Mr. J..9. Gtoned; of Jones - e, & May, Exeter, th' farmers_ will grow 1three. timeaas many beans • as they grew in 1016 , ' Mr. Cook estimated that the. area -sown to beans. this year wonlci be about -eighteenf.'tlioinOu ° acres. ` The average yield is sixteen bushels to the acre, though some -farms last year pro- duced as Much as twenty bushels to the acre. • Si$teen bushels:per ' acre means 288,000 bushels -of beams on eighteen, thousand acres, and, at, $6. per " bushel, which is the probable •price, the 1917 crop will be worth nearly one and quarter Million dollars' That is twice as much as Huron's wheatcrop' realized` in.19.16t.a. fairly. •, good_ year_for.._ wheat. Mr. Cook' told' The' Globe that Mr. J. J. Merner,.M.P.; of Zurich,• raised• $10,000 worth of beaus: on one hundred acres of, ,land last year,and that this .year he is putting in two hundred acres of beans,. while quite a number of the farmers are devoting'one hundred acres to beans this Year - SEED REAR PRICES 'Fanners are now offering. $8.,60 to $9 per bushel for Seed beans, which are ex ceedingly scarce. A few .would-be'grow. ers will not be able' to get what Mein - quire, but the majori y4ave__already. procureall• the see they need.

'crop was marketed atthat figure. Some of the farmers had. 900 bushels and got over $8,030 for their crop. The value of the beans raised last season was greater than the -value of the land -upon *hicks they were -raised, a good farm of 100 acres w i rproveineoscbuildings,.,E :,being~ worth from 58,000 to $1o,000. -Mort- gages have been wiped out and the.. farmers are now buying liutomobiles,. for it is only in the last few years that they learned what a wonderful' bean-. growing section they have in the farms 'bordering on Lake Huron in the town., ships, OfITay; Stephen and Stanley. LESS WIIEAT, l4O1tE BEANS ` Prbspectsate for high prices this year,, Large packing concerns are said to '• be guaranteeing over $5 per bushel for ail the beai s that can be grown, whetl.;er tbe•war ccintiriues or not. It ie stated 'that $2 per bushel would give the farm- ers a satisfactory, margin; indeed, the average'price paid for beans in Ontario. during 1911, 1912 and 1913 was '$1.84 per bushel. . Huron county farmers are growing iesis_whea t_ and-more-beane, which ---are produced with very little extra labor; it is stated, Mueh of the work in connec• tion with the industry is done with machinery.

The landing cif an aeroplane which had lost. its way on the road• from Toronto to Camp Borden on Sunday night caused a rush of sightseers to a field - on the Elora Road gi miles south of Mildmay. One farmer, Ezra Reuber, who *vas preparing to hurry to the scene in his car, 'rushed into his driving shed with his lantern to get some gasoline. The. •result, was._ an' explosion, the building being burned to. the ground. . .• The same day, the big barn of Jos. rilsinger, lot 13,acon. 4, was burned to the ground while the family was in bed.* Twelve head_ of cattle, valued at over $10.0 each, and two colts were burned All that was saved' mit of the building was four horses. Mr. Filsinger had $1800 insurance in the Fariner.'s Central -of• Walkerton: 'His loss will double the amount of insurance. The origin of the fire -is a -complete -mystery and there some suspicion of incendiarrsni.
