TIDEWATEK TO THE LAKES.

An interesting report in connection
with the Tidewater and Deepwater
railways is to the effect that the Lorain,
Ashland & Southern Railroad, which
is being built by Joseph Ramsey, Jr.,
from Lorain, Ohio, southwark. will
furnish the desired connection of the
Rogers road to the Lakes. Mr.. Ram
sey is reported as saying that his line
and the Tidewater seem to be heading
toward Gallip0lis, Ohio, and he would
welcome a connection with such a
strong road as the Tidewater or the
Virginlan Railway, as it will hereafter
be known. Such a connection would
make the port of Lorain on Like Erie
a northern terminal of the Rogers line.
At Charleston, w. Va, there are
rumors that the Short Line projected
from that city to Parkersburg will be-
come part of the Virginian Railway,
but nothing has transpired to confirm
this story.

Seal Hunting on the Ice FToes.

One OF the most perilous of the

army of from five to seven thousand
men take part, is the seal hunt. as it
Is called. The scene of the hunt is the
Ice fields which drift southwark in the
spring of each year from the Arctic re-

The Arctic current which sweeps
southwark through the ocean along
the coasts of Labrador and Newfound-

life, being one of the great feeding
grounds for deep.sea fish such as cod

such large portion of the year great

from the glacial berg to the foe, rem

not only for many varieties of fish, but
for the seal referred to. The ice tioes

Canada Field Peas.

There Is much interest in the cultI-
walton of Canada Field Peas, and en-
quiries are constantly received as to
| the best varieties and methods of cnl-
tivation suited to this crop. 1t has
been advocated by many that the
Canada field pea might be sown late
In the fall and allowed to remain in tie
ground all winter, and that it would
m AXE very satisfactory crop the next
year. Spring feeding has also been ad-
vocated, but an experience of several
years does not Indicate that the Cana
da pea is we'll adapted for cultivation
in the south as large yields have never
been obtained with it either when COM
bined with oats or grown singly for
the purpose of soiliug or grain prOduc-
tion. The results of Our tests show
that in the year 1905, eight bushels per
acre was the largest yield obtained;
and this was made by White Harrow.

The largest yield of straw was made |
by French June, or nine ton per acre.
This crop frequently makes 20 to 80
bushels per acre in Canada where eli

it's liking. We are of the opinion that
many other legumes can be grown to

These results are reproduced to give a
