use of the motor plough
His ExcelIency was not himself q planter
and the hon Members would excuse him if he
did not express himself correctly about these
matters. He had seen in paper, that the mo-
tor plough was used in Porto Rico and
Louisiana and the Introduction Of it here
tended as far as he could understand to
improve the cultivation in dry land, he had
been told by keeping the moisture in the
ground The members of the Agricultural
Society had pointed out two gentlemen,
and he considered it right to grant this a.
mount from the means Of the Immigration
Fund, but as money from the immigration
fund required an Ordinance, it was more
convenient to let the Colonial Treasury pay
the expenses now aud later on the amount
could be refunded from the Immigration
fund.
This matter is brought forward with the
unanimous recommendation Of the Agri-
cultural Society which represents the plan
ters His EXcellency would therefore re-
commend the Money Bill for favourable
adoption.
4th Member for Fredcrikstcd Country
District (7UorobelgD remarked. that a good
deal Of planters have changed their mind
The matter had been brought forward in
the Agricultural Society without sufficient
time to discuss it, and it was a little hur-
ried through, besides some planters had
not been present. He was authorized by
u planters to lay this letter before the
Council (the member read the letter with
the names Of the signatures requesting
the Council to postpone the decision on
this matter until Il special meeting Of the
Agricultural Society had been called for
another discussion Of TINS subject He
would ask the hon. Chairman OF the C0uu-
Gil to consider this matter.
lis ErtrH~acY found it somewhat peculiar,
that the members Of the Agricultural Socio-
ty could not address themselves to their
Society where the real interest for the mat
ter lay, The real Forum was the A9ricul-
tural Society. AS it now is an application
is before the Council unanimously agreed
to by the Agricultural Society. The calti-
vation Of the Island was so serious a ques-
ton that His IIxcellcncy could not see
what objection could be made against send
ing two gentlemen to investigate the use
fulness Of the motor plough on the spot
where it is being used.
2nd Grown Member (ScdmicqcIo1rJ would
repeat what he had said in the Agriculture
al Society that we planters should grasp
the matter and send two gentlemen to
study the use of the motor plough. He
could not agree with the hon. 4th Member
for frederikatcd Country District, that this
matter had been hurried through the Agri-
cultural Society, two meetings had been
held where the matter had been discussed.
Some members Of the Society had thought
that IA motor plough was to be bought. he
had told them that this was not the case.
the gentlemen should give a report OF what
they had seen in places where motor
pIoughs were in use. 1t IS easy to find peo-

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS

The prosperity of this community
we believe, is due in geat measure
to the diversified and more advanced
methods of farming, which are De-
coming more general with our farm
ers. There is, however, much room
for Improvement. We believe that a
good method of crop rotation should
be more generally used, as well as
the raising of cow peas, velvet beans,
sweet potatoes, cane, corn, and the
breeding of live stock.
| have just received a limited sup
ply of Georgia King corn, ears meas
uring from ten TO fourteen inches
long, and yielded last year as much
as 229 bushels per acre; also a limit
ed supply of the Brooks prolific corn,
a heavy yielder, producing as many
as fourteen ears to the stalk, which
am going to distribute, free of charge,
while it lasts, to those who are inter
ested and wish to plant it. AS an In
ducement to have this corn properly
planted and cared for, am going to
ask that each one select and bring
me the best twelve ears as soon as
they are matured, and to the one
bringing the best twelve ears I am go
ing to offer a cash prize of SIS; to the
one bringing the second best, SO, and
the third bets, S.. The judges will be
selected and announced at a later
date. l will also offer a cash prize of
SO for the stalk of Brooks prolific
having the greatest number of ears.
