canes in the lowlands are not being kept as
clean Of weeds this year as is the character
Of our cultivation in general. The dry weo-
ther has been so far an advantage in weed
ing. AS a matter of fact the fields in tie
more moist districts are cleaner than in some
less rainy localities. The Jamaica Journal OF
the Agricultural Society for July has an ar
ticIe ly "a correspondent showing how the
peasants of st. Elizabeth parish have kept
their provision lands healthy and prosperous
during an almost rainless period of three
months by uuceasing care and attention to
the cultivation of their plots.
Labour ON the plantations consists at pre-
sent chiefly in preparing the fields for plant
ing the next cane crop. Fields just cleared
of fodder are being %ploughed, then the farker
follows to open out the cane holes. Other
fields on the same estate have been advanc-
ed a stage further, the manure having been
already thrown out and bedded in. The
large quantity of field trash remaining from
the cane crop of this year has enabled the
planter to raise pen after pen OF farm COM
post, so that some have already provided al
most all the manure required for their pre-
paration lands. - griculnhr0{ Reporter, 3ISt

AGRICULTURAL REPORT.

During the latter part of August, there
was very little rain in any part of tue lsland
until the night Of The 9th, WREN coplous
showers fell in the southern parishes, giving
an ;nrh of rain in st. Michael and Christ
Church and one and u half inches III st. PHI
iip. Wednesday morning opened with heavy
looking clouds III the east. About SIX O'Clock
Deals of thunder were heard, and soon after
that, the rain fell heavily and was general,
the windward districts getting, however,
more on this occasion than the northern par
ishes. In the upper valley OF st. George,
somewhat under two inches Was recorded Tor
the day; in st. John, from one inch to one
and n half inches; in St. Thomas, one inch.
On Thursday there were some 9ood showers
again in the southern parishes.
During the rain on Wednesday, a cyclone
passed over Bridgetown and the suburbs.
Fortunately, it lasted for only a minute OF
two. but during that time several small
houses were uuroofed, others were thrown
down, and there were accidents to persons
through falling posts and boards. There has
been comparatively little thunder or hight
ming ia July and August. Recently there
have been some hot days and the winds have
varied from calms to gusts.
For the eight months Of this year, we
have had from 20 to % inches of rain III the
districts which have been favoured with
most frequent showers. August has gwen
from 4 to 5 inches of this. In the CORES
bonding period of last year the rainfall
amounted to over Al inches, in 1910 to AZ
inches, and in 1909 to 434 inches These
figures are taken from the records of st.
Thomas gauge; but in every ether part OF
tue island there is a similar deficiency of ram
this year. The dry days of the middle OF
this month have retarded the growth Of the
canes considerably. Many fields still pre-
sent a very discouraging appearance. VI
course, the rains Of this week, acting along
with the ammonia recently applied IN most
;,l.ces, will effect a change for the better
But, unless they are followed by even yet
more copious rains every week for a long
time, there can be only q moderate crop IN
1918. It is ne the pellod of the year when
we look for long canes and a large humber
of them in every hole; but in a very large
proportion of our cane fields there is nothing
of cane yet, only green and healthy cau9
foliage.

There was large and enthusiastic meeting of the directors of the agri- cultural society at the Springs House last Friday afternoon, and various plans for the coming fair, to be held on October 10, II and 12, were dis cussed. It was voted to repair the stage platform and to maA1a new quarters for the band. The band has been stationed in the judges stand, but was too much enclosed. It was decided to have a motorcycle race on Friday and Saturday, open to residents of Holland county, for purses of $25 for each race. B. D. Trfts was elected superintendent of athletic sports and they will be announced later. One hundred dollars for prizes was appropriated for the automobile parade, and o. B. Pinney was ap- pointed to have charge of the same. It was also decided to have the parade in the afternoon this year, as many did not see it last year on account of it's being held in the morning. It was voted to have a potato race for the officers and directors of the association. A fat mems race is also proposed. Mrs. A. l.. Bachmeyer of Hartford has been secured as an expert to judge the fancy articles. A committee was appointed to see if the trolley and steam service cannot be improved, es- pecially on Saturday, which is Colum- bus day.

MONEY BACK CATARRH
 REMEDY

Dosing the stomach won't kill Catarrh germs. Neither will sprays, touches, snuffs or ointments.
 The quickest way to kill germs is to breathe deep into the lungs the vaporized air of Booths HYOMEI.
 As this antiseptic air passes over the sore spots infested with Catarrh germs, it not only destroys them, but heals the infamed membrane and stops the discharge of mucus.
 Then hawking, splitting, snufaing, crusts in nose and foul breath will disappear, and vile, disgusting Ga tarrah will be conquered.
 A complete HYOMEI outfit, which includes a hard rubber inhaler, only costs $1.OO. Extra bottles, if after wards needed, soc; and Anders Jacob sen is authorized to refund your money if dissatisfied.
 Don't you know that whole lot of this indigestion, dyspepsia, gastritis, catarrh of the stomach talk is all nonsense.
