News and Information For the Busy Farmer (Furnished by the Ontario Depart- ment of Agriculture) Registrations for the summer' School sessions at 0, A. C. have reached a total. of 404. Such a large attendance .cannot help but have a great influence throughout the pro- vince and will result in the rural viewpoint being stressed in the public schools by men and women who have. spent apart of their time at the Col- lege. Purchasers of Fertilizers Fall wheat growers have learned that fertilizers are valuable in 'in- creasing the yield of this crop in the way of producing bettergrowth in the fall, followed by less winter kill- ing and a quicker start in the spring. Earlier maturity and, improved qual ity of grain have resulted. Fertilizer requirements should be carefully esti- mated in advance and orders placed in plenty of time to permit delivery prior to seeding dates. Collective pur- chasing by 'farmers or groups of far- mers will aid materially in obtaining minimum prices. Carlot orders can readily be arranged and a substantial saving . made. Growers should ar- range to pay cash. Time prices are always high and farmers are well ad- vised to save high rates of interest wherever, possible. Purchasing econ- omy without loss of efficiency should be the watchword of all crop grow- ers and live stock producers at all times. OgrtERIZSIE Tonight is the family re -union.

Priests Are Jealous Rulers of Closed, Country— Now die Inhabitants. Having lived for more than twenty years on the border line between China and Tibet, R. Cunningham; of the China Inland Mission, bas gained an extensive knowledgeof life in Tibet, which is probably the least - known inhabited Country in the world. Populated by more than six million people, Tibet is .bordered by. Russia on the north, India on the south, China on the east, and Persia on the west. Four high mounta n Manges correspond wi h these boun- daries, and Tibet may cnly be enter- el by high, snow-capped passes from 11,000 feet to 20,000 feet above sea.• iivel. "It seems as if nature had con- spired with the lamas to make Tibet a closed eatable" said Mr. Cunning- ham. "Apart from the fac. t:,at person, °titer than a Tibetan, is al lowed to enter• the Country, it woul be difficult for one to live in c1' -near Tibet, because the heigh.. of the coun- try above sea -level makes the a.tine- sphere.so rarified." ReIatives of Sud - he Sundae' Singh, au Iudiau C'1.:s- aian, were found by Mr. Cunningham at Darjeeling in Mirth India. teuu dar Singh was taken prisoner when he first visited Tibet, and he was tole that if he returned he w,.u1d be pie to death, It was rant i t d, how (eve. that he haddied of chciera. Having' learned to speak the . ibc • tan langhage, Mr. Cunningham her. L'requently co::versed wi h the halms who pass int r China, and from their he has ob.aii.ed intoimaticn o� ete political and religious er,anization of the country. The a. hale basis ci. its life, he said, was relig.;rus; the Supreme ruler, the Dalai Laine, bar ing both ;he religious and pol.;.:cal head. There were several cities with from 5,000 to 7,000 inhaleit ,»� s, Ali of whom belong to the priestly cass. of lamas. The remainPer of the population consisted of Nomads °arching pasture for their herds. The lamas' were also the military force of Tibet. ABOLISH. GIRL DANCERS. Modification of Hindu Rtes Is Being Secured by Reformers. Measures to bring about abolition of the Devadasi system whereo). young girls were dedicated to tem- ples as par. of the Hindu ritual have been completed in the State of Tra- vancore, India. Hereafter men will take the place of the dancing girls in allthe places of worship. The move- ment "to purify the temples and save the womanhood of India from a sore ea_ing into the vitals of society, as the reformers call it, is also under way in other parts of India. Her Highness Setulaksbmi Bayi, Maharani Regent of Travancore, has been given the credit of initiative in doing away with the Devadasi temple system which for centuries has been maintained by the state. Reformers believe that her action will carry great weight in other sections of the country. Tho change was due to a chance visit of her highness to a tem- ple of worship in the course of a tour in South Travancore where there were dancing girls. It was soon afterward that the regent abolished .he system of service with instrle- ions that all remuneration the i3eva•- dasis have been receiving in money or in kind from pilgrims and other avorshippers should be .continued, but that men should be appointed to Lama the places of the dancing girls. The girls did all the cleaning wings at the' temples, this being part 01 `heir duties from childhood w.nen 'hey were turned over by their !ami- des to the temple priests for tine re- nainder of their natural lige. The earls lived a life of seclusion, .and, it has been calculated, about ten per .lent. of the entrants ran ,away, set various stages of .hair careers. a`rci.

Crop Report Harvesting of fall Wheat through- out the province has been fairly gen- eral during the past week and abund (rant yields are reported from most. sections. Haying is finished, with the best crop in some years, particu- larly of clover, reported from many districts. Pastures in many counties. have been injured by extreme heat, while spring grains are expected to be short in the straw. Intermittent rains have aided immensely, however, in most parts of Ontario. The can- ing pea crop was reported light, es- tilpecially in the Eastern Ontario dis- trict. Apples are expected to be a miich bigger yield than a year ago. Grow- ers have had cause to worry in the matter of controlling scab as a pe- riod of sultryweather was very fav- orable toward the development of fungus. Heavy showers prevented spraying machines from operating in many districts just when they should have been after the scab. Consider- able dirty fruit is therefore probable. Some districts are worried, too, be- cause of lack of surplus moisture and if a dry spell should develop, the fruit may be on the small size. An Enormous Loss A prominent authority has estimat- ed that twenty-six million dollars is the price paid by farmers and poul- try raisers through diseases in poul- try flocks in Canada in the past year. Most of this loss is caused by inter- nal parasites and much of it is pre- ventable. ryventable. A good deal of it can be avoided .by keeping the young chicks away from the adult birds and on ab- solutely clean soil.
