In these days when affOrestation Is
deservedly receiving SO much atten-
ton Il is well to note the effect Of
forests upon the rainfall. The Telling
of the timber in Malta and the Cape
Verde Islands reduced the rainfall.
while IL was increased in the island Of
ST. Helena as the result OF increasing
the forests. The planting of 10000. 900
trees Of various kinds In Lower Egypt
has changed a well nigh desert into
a fruitful region with an abundant
rainfall. The same result will doubt
less be seen IN the semi-arid sections
OF this country as trees are planted.
Evidently nature - extremely sensi-
tive and Is easily affected one way
or the other. according as conditions
are favorable or unfagOrable.

Labor Unions and Treason.

A COW isn't pump-though some milkmen are said to mix the two up, sometimes. If she were a pump, all one would have to do would be to see to the valves and work the handle. But she isn't; she's a mighty complicated compound of hair and hoofs and horns and meat and fat and bones and nerves and some scores of other things. And the more one really learns about her the bigger grows the number of things he finds he doesn't know. In our present state of knowledge about the wisest thing we can do is to find out her ideas and let her have her head. If she wants grass and there is any grass, let her have it. If she wants to lie under a shed let her lie there. or come into the stable if she prefers that. Give her all the chance in your power to be comfortable, in her own way. But it seems to me that it is really about as foolish and almost as cruel to "coddle" her as it is to neg feet her.

(Written Specially for The Bulletin.) As I think I have mentioned some ten or a dozen times I believe that the best farmer, in order to become and remain the best, must know some thing of the science of agriculture, as well as of the art of farming. Any kind of blundering will bring results on a new. virgin soil, rich with the accumulated fertility of ten thousand uncropped years. A man doesn't need to be farmer to raise wheat on the broad levels of the Canadian north west. All he has to do is to turn the dirt over, scatter on the seed, and then hire a traction engine with a thirty foot reaper or ''header" attached to cut and thresh and clean and measure and bag his grain. This is about as near to finding money" as will ever hap
 pen in agriculture. It's no wonder that such people are getting fich and buy
 ing automobiles. at the present price of wheat.
 Here, on old lands which have been cropped for two hundred years, on soils depleted of their natural fertility by the annual suction of two hundred harvestS, man must know something and do something to raise wheat. Or corn, or potatoes, or cabbages. or any other old thing. Therefore, he must know something about the science of agriculture; for science" means sim ply knowledge. He must learn. in some way. what his soil needs, field by field, to restore it. He must learn. in some way, field by field, what sort of cultivation will best nourish his fos- tering plants. He must know a whole lot of things. And the sum of his knowledge, however acquired. is the measure of his attainment in the sci ence of agriculture. He may learn some of 1t from books; he may learn some of it from observation of his neighbors; he may learn it all from his own callouses and his own sore knuckles, rapped tender by hard ex- .perience. My own impression is that he will save time and great deal of trouble and some loss. if he will heed the teachings of all three-books. ob- servation and experience. The trouble with many farmers seems to be that they will not accept help from more than one of these sources. They are either book farmers" or else they are just the opposite-won't have any thing to do with books. Neither one of these classes ever wholly get there.
 On the whole, judging from what

 It must be queer sort of farming country where pasturage is found more expensive feeding for cows than buy ing grain at present prices. But even if 1t does cost more, in some places, it produces more. They can say all they please about creamery butter; you and l know that there never yet has been any better butter made than that which came out of the old ld-fashioned stone churn, from the cream of cows fed on June pastures. Such pasturage not only produced better butter and more of it, but it also produced animal health and strength; rounded out Bos- sy's ribs, regulated her liver and i'm proved her digestion; put friskiness ant ginger into her.
