Increasing Turnip Yield
An increase of 25 to 35 per cent.
in yield of turnips has been obtained
in a number of demonstration tests
conducted by " the Department of
Chemistry, O. A. C. In the past 20
years, the growing of turnips has be-
come an iihportant phase of farming
in <Central Ontario and although pro-
fits were diminished due to conditions
in 1930, turnies continue to be an im-
portant adjunct of many mixed farms
in Ontario. Growing conditions of
1930 were especially bad, due to the
long drought. The usual pest, the
turnip louse, was in great evidence,
rendering many a crop absolutely
worthless This insect is difficult to
combat, because it is a "suckling
mouthed insect" and sprays have lit-
tle effect upon it. Ten different -fer-
tilizers were used in last summer's'
experiments, rates varying from 400
to 750 pounds per acre. The average
yield for all fertilizers was 639 bush-
els per acre while the average yield
for the unfertilized was 468 bushels.
This is convincing evidence of the
profits obtainable from the use of fer-
tilizers. The turnip crop is one that
deeme tie .require a special supply of
phosphoric acid, hence a relatively
high phosphate fertilizer like 2-12.6
is well adapted to the crop. Thor-
oughness of application is one of the during the summer months I have

Dear Sir:—
I enjoyed reading "The Donny-

ment Mr. P. W. Scott on his excel-
lent memory and beg leave :to add a
few lines that were omitted last
week:—
So they battled right in with both
might and main,
Just stopped for a "swig" then were
fighting again,
The longer they fought, the more
men in it there were,
There was lots of .excitement at

At last it was ended, and Robin had

But, oh what a sight for the next

And covered the road for more than

nicely. What? Very simple elecea,
no doubt, but so good is hit, ear and
memory that stumbling Angers are

Who is the baby? Charles Camille
Saint-Saens, in the spring- time of
1838. Ile was born in Paris on Oc-
tober 9, 1835, and earlyleft father-
less, for which Charlotte Masson, the
great-aunt, and his =other tried to
make up.
Camille's ear and memory were
marvellous; so was his understand-
ing. At the age of five he could read
and play easily an opera by Gretry
from the score; at seven he became
the pupil of Stainaty, a great teacher.
On May 6, 1846, he played in Paris.
at the Salle Pleyel before a keenly
critical audience and, when he waa
twelve, entered the Conservatoire to
study' organ -playing and composition.
Prizes for organ -playing he won, but
never the coveted Prix de Rome !or
composition.
He was sixteen when be wrote his.
first` symphony and eighteen when he
became organist of the Church of St.
Merry. Five years later he succeeded
Lefebure-Wely at the Madeleine. the
most distinguished post obtainable
for any organist. Here he achieved
world-wide celebrity as a master of
technique: and 'mercerization, and'.
stayed for nineteen years.
Saint-Saens . fired •by Liszt, wrote
Dense Macabre, Le Rouet d'Oxnphale,

orchestral pieces full of poetic apt-
ness. and ingeniously seored, His
craftsmanship was sutperb. La Prin-
cesse Fauna, an opera,' was not too
successful; but, Liszt again coming.

a real triumph.
In his youth Saint-Saens had beep
the hope of the musical modernists,
who thought that . Inc disagreements

unite him with them. They were mis-
taken. Saint-Saens saw his ideal
clearly, attained it, and stuck to it
through thick and thin. So he pass-
ed through the twentieth century ut-
terly unaffected by,the changes which
came to all forms of art after 1908.
He died on Decenmber .16, 1924, in
Algiers.

The great ivory horn of Roland.,

Many animals, birds, sh and
inaeets are shaped mid colored, by
nature in such a way as to protect
them from their enemies. This mar-
vellous provision is seen at its best
in some new groups of stick insects
and leaf insects which recently arriv-

The stick insects have come from
the East Indies, aid they :ere of it
light g}eenish-brownish colts, meas-
uring from two inches to four er six
belies in length. They are very thin
indeed, and they are do much like
tiny twigs er sticke that it is almost
impossible to distinguish them from
their surronnd£ngs. They imitate the
twigs exactly, folding their slender
legs close to their bodies, and lea ng-
ing from the smaller breathes just
like leaitess stalks.
Leaf insects aro of a bright green
tint, and aro shaped exactly like
leaves; and as they .htmt among the
foliage of trees for the smaller lit--
aects they feed upon, they are quite
sate from the birds, Which think they
are merely leaves.

It came up the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold;
"Peace to the earth, goodwill to men
Froin Heaven's all -gracious King:"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
Still through the cloven skies they
come •
With peaceful wings unfurl'd;
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world;
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on heavenly wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
Yet with the woes of sin and strife
'The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel -strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
And men, at war with men, hear'not
The love -song which they bring;
Oh! hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the angels sing/
And ye, beneath life's. crushing load
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow;
Look nowl for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing:
Ohl rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing!
For lo! the days are hastening on,
By prophet -bards foretold,
When with the ever -circling years
Comes round the age of gold;
When Peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendors fling,
And th whole world send 'back the
song
Which now the angels sing,
