F Written Ey a Huronite Written by . Farming in Elgin county differs con- siderably from that of Huron and its neighbor counties, in almost all forms of agricultural pursuits. The scarcity of competent hem help is very acute in this part of the Province and as a consequence the land cannot be tilled to produce top- notch results, which, from a monetary standpoint, makes it rather hard for the, average farmer, as land in this distrid reside on the gr'oom's farm near Shaun- averages about 6100 per acre in value— avon. when it is improved.

Mr. and Mrs. Guy Blacken expect to leave Blyth about the end of this month for Detroit, Mich., where they will reside. Mr. and Mrs. John Cole and family, who have been residing at Stratford fo, pest year, have returned to Blyth where they will reside. At a recent meeting of the directors of Blyth Agr cultural Society a number of the canvassers appointed to solicit funds to place the Society on a more sound financial basis reported that in the neigh- borhood of 5200 had been subscribed. it M expected when all the canvassers have completed their work this amount will be augmented by at least 5100. i►s�o Even on the farms where there are thirty or forty milch cows there is no but- ter made. All the milk is sent .to the large condenser at Aylmer or to the few ch -est factories. The latter, however, are grad- ually going out of business, as the com- paratively low price of cheese makes it un ossibl . for the cheese -makers to com- pete with the condenser in buying milk. At the present time the condensing people are paying $2,00 per cwt. for milk, pro- vided, of course, that it contains a reason able amount of butter fat. To .eturn to the subject of farm help. This unfortunate condition of affairs for the Dominion as a whole, both producer and consumer. has made it necessary for the proprietors of two of the leading stock and dairy farms of Ontario, ahich are sit- uated here, to sell off practic- e ly all of their magnificent aPot herds. s These are \fes.
