structor in Agriculture in the British Nir-
gin Islands, for a copy of a neatly got up
""Handbook of general information, 1912"
The Handbook contains 30 pages of in
t~eresting matter, including Is drawings
reproduced from photographs, and Il map
OF tue Islands. The reading matter is
divided into eight chapters, the first deal
ing with Geography and Topography, the
second treating OF Climate, the third OF
the Islands History. the four II describing
tie Political Constitution, the fifth treating
OF Industries, etc, the sixth Of Population,
Vital Statistics etc, the seventh of Religious
Denominations, Education etc, and the
eighth of Sports and Amusements obtainable.
To these chapters u few general remarks
are added.
There is much interesting matter in each
of the above mentioned chapters, aud after
reading them we are left with the impress
sion tltnt the Virgin Islands, though forming
bat a small colony, form, 1T the sam time u
progressive one, Thus, we read that the
total popu alton Of The YIrSn Islands N
the census of 1911 was 1852, an in
crease of G54 on the census Of 1871,
from which we see thlt the Islands stand
in this respect ahead Of st. CrolX, where nm
fortunately the population IS falling off.
Then in regard to industries we learn that
the amount of cotton produced hld increas-
ed from 1850 tb III 1904 to $4,000 tb3. III
1912; the respective values benz S175 and
SIC, 500. This progress was made possible
by the local Government purchasing the
cotton from the small growers. In the lime
industry the amount of lines purchased and
dealt with had increased from 252 barrels IN
1908 to 500 barrels ia the crop season
19I1-12. In other respects the prospects

SOCIETY.

At the Extraordinary Meeting of the
Agricultural Society held last Monday at
the Agricultural Exp riment Station DR..
Planters in which he suggested some labour-
saving changes in their present system Of
cane cultivation. The suggested changes
he recommended Planters to try on n small
scale at first, and stated that the Depart
ment Of Agriculture would assist the Plant
e,s in carrying out the experiments by Civ
ING them advice how and where to lay out
the experimental plots. Dr.. Lon9ield Smith
Illustrated his remarks by demonstrations III
the field in the use Of two new implements,
namely, the Massey Harris Drill Plough and
the Cuban double-mGuldhoArd Fluke. Plots
of sugar canes at the Experiment Station,
cultivated according to some t the suggest
ed labour saving methods, were shewn the
Planters. Demonstrations were also given
Planters in the work of the Cuban - Plough,
made by Messrs. B. f. Avery q Sons, and
also i'll the use of a subsoll pillow and a cot
ton planter, made by the same firm.
The cotton planter shewn was the
s.Shawnee Junior. 1t is drawn by one
horse or mule, and it opens a furrow and
plants the cotton seed at the same time.
rhe seed may be dropped at any regular
intervals, and two, four or six seeds may be
dropped in each hole, as desired. The depth
to which the seed is buried in the soil may
also be regulated. A growing plot of young
cotton planted by this machine was shewn.
DR.. LongieId Smith then Showed the va
rious experimental plots Of cane and cotton
, 1913-03-15

at the Station. Some new Seeding canes
of distinct PROMISE We're seen. The pots Of
cotton We're particularly interesting, and the
hvbrids were much admired. DR.. Long
field Smith pointed ont the interesting fact
that in a plot of hybrid cotton, st. CrolX
Chance" Sea Island X St. CroiX Native, In
which are scattered here and there fourteen
plants OF pure st. CroiX Chance Sea Island,
none of the hvbrids have ANY blister mite
on them, while all the fourteen plants OF
Sea Island Cotton have acquired blister mite.
He also pointed out the interesting fact that
when st. Croix Native Cotton is crossed
with different varieties Of Sea Island Cotton,
the habits OF the resulting plauts differ very
distinctly and the yield Of cotton and quail
ty of the lint is also very different in the
different varieties, thus
St. Croix Chance" Sea Island X Native
St. Crolx had Welded TO date l,3GD lbs. OF
seed cotton per acre, the lint of which had
been valued by Nessrs. Wol,tenho.ma and
Ho land at III. per 10.
- fStirtrug Sen fsftfd X Native St Crolx
had yielded to date go lbs. Of seed cotton
per acre, the lint Of which was valued ut
13I. per ID.
'Cameron" Sea Island X Native st. Croix,
had Welded to date $50 lbs. of seed cotton
per acre, the lint Of which was valued at
15d. to 16l. per ID.
The differences in yield were quite evil
IDENTIFY not due to ID differences in Inc soil Of
the plots but to inherent differences in time
of ripening ana in bearing qualities
A plot Of Hybril Cotton, "Cameron' Sea
Island X "SaketIarides' Egyptian, had yield
ed to date $500 lbs. of seed cotton PER

ST. GROIN STATION

London, March II h-rhe Kings speech
on the opening Of Parliament commenced
with Il reference to his pure IT'S Jubilee and
thanks for the nations atf elton manifested
towards his mother. He hoped that the
consultations between the Powers will ena-
bic them to reach an understanding among
themselves and end the war. He thanked
the Dominions contributing towards Imperi-
III Defence, particularly mentioning Mr.. Bor-
denis visit to England and the current de-
bate in Canada. The forthcoming estimates
were mentioned perfunctorIly, without midi
eating whether they will be unusually large.
The Legislative programme was narrow,
consisting of Home Rule for Il Gland, Welsh
Disestablishment and Irish land Purchase
facilitatiou Assistance will be given for
Egyptian cotton growing. Reform with
regard to plural voting WAS mentioned, and
the promotion of II system OF national edu~
cation.
Russianlike precautions against Interrupt
lions proved necessary, but We're not al
together successful. Five sutfrngettes were
arrested for presenting Il petition, and rs
the Royal procession passed Whitehall
two more were arrested, and ut another
point in the Mall four burst through the
Yeomen and threw petitions towards Their

to tho Queen, bnt paid no further attention to
the incident. The Yeomen drove the We
men away and the police arrested them.
On each occasion the crowds resented their
action, and threats of bucking and l~ynching
were heard. The suffrage te's desperation
was indicuted further by the burning OF the
Saunderton Station of the Great Western
Railway, and Croxley Green Station Of the
North Western Railway, both Of which were
new. Mrs. Pankhurst says it is ridiculous 10
call exercise of constitutions rights al insult
to the King, and thnt it is only politicians
who wish to draw their Maiesties into the
sutfra9ettes' quarrel with the Government.
Women, she says, wish to associate their
quarrel from the monarchy, and the sole OBJ
iect of the petition was to call the attention
of the public to the seriousness of the situa-
ton. Miss Kenney sryS, as the speech from
