Cows suppIant Wheat.

A Courtenay correspondent tells
more or the details of the new policy
being adopted on Mr.. Cooper's lands.
telling how his five section farm lying
eight miles northeast of town, and
managed by j. e. Fischer, and which
has been devoted exclusively to grain
raising, will be a thing of the past
as far as grain raising is concerned.
The farm Is to be sub-rented in
small farms and that portion of which
Mr.. Cooper has decided to keep for
his own purpose will be stocked and
stock raising carried on. Twenty-four
of the finest Guernsey heifers that
could be bought has been ordered
from the Guernsey island, Europe,
and Will be sent here about May and
taken to the farm. Three thorough
bred mares have also been ordered
and will arrive the same time the
cattle gets here.
Mr.. Fischer n Mr.. Cooper that large
grain farming would have to be abol-
lshed, and the best revenue getter for
the farm is stock. Mr.. Fischer has
been a firm believer in good COWS
and due credit belongs to him for his
efforts in ~agitating the dis~continuance
Of grain raising and good stock sub
Stftuted in its stead. He has been
sole manager of this large farm and
has produced as large a crop as any
farmer on land of the same size, and
when a man of his ability decides
that already farms should be divided
and something beside depending upon
grain, 1t is time for the rest of the
big, as well as the small farmers to
devote their time to other sources.

An Item in a recent issue of The

how deeply the dairying idea has
