AS A LABORATORY

Tn fact, the school garden should bo looked upon as a laboratory in which the different steps in the life of the plant are to be illustrated and demonstrated. The nature of soil, the importance Of fertilization, and the conditions ess ential to germination, as well as the conditlons conducive to growth, can all ba illus trated in logical and impressive manner in the school garden.
 Field excursions may be an ideal way for conducting nature study with reason ing minds that have been trained t. a logical system and in consecutive. sys- tematic fashion, but school gardens offer facilities not to be approached in field excursions.
 Field excursions give disconnected fragment of the history of natural ob- jects, while the scnooi garden furnishes opportunities for observing plants froll seedtime to harvest. Tn addition to tne actual operations in the school garden, number of schoolroom studies dni ex- periments may be conducted, which will be of decided interest and value.'

planting, and care of the plants grown Tn that garden. This, as before stated, not only develops system but it furnishes basis of very valuable knowledge, if the operation connected with these crops are properly conducted. If the require ments of the different crops in regard to reparation of soil, depth of planting, date of planting, the manner of harvesting and training are all carefully observed the young mind ,has indelibly fixed upon it impressions which will be retained throughout life.
 The cultivation and management of these crops in future years will be looked upon as a sort of instinct, the time and manner of acquiring this knowledge hav- ing. perhaps. long ago been forgotten. The skill and ability resulting from the use of various implements connected With the cultivation of crops are of no mean significance.
 Tn connection with these operations, the teacher can illustrate the good and evil effects from certain methods of cul- tivation, of working soil n good and aad conditions, with the consequent effec5s upon growing crops; can demonstrate the Value of deep and shallow ttlage. to- gether with the importance of maintain ing loose soil mulch for the conserva- tiOn of moisture

ST. MARY'S PROJECT COMPLETED

Waters intended for the frozen
Hudson Bay now flowing towards the
semi-tropical Gulf of Mexico.
St. Mary's River water now avail
able for the Milk River Project.
An eye witness who has just return
turned from the st. Mary's River
brings news of. interest to water users
in the Milk River Valley. The work
of bringing the water of st. Mary
Lakes down into the valley for irriga-
tion is completed. At the present
time the water from the mountain
lakes is actually flowing into the Milk
River For the purpose of testing
the canal the Reclamation Service en-
gineers have turned the water into
the big ditch where it is now flowing
and discharging about 80 cubic feet
per second. The engineers report
that the new canal is we'll built, but
as is usual with a newly completed
channel, there is some seepage from
the ditch at some points, but care will
be taken before the irrigation season
of 1917 opens to stop leakage by
pudding and draining along the affect
ed stretches. Practically without
doubt the St. Mary canal is now ready
to supply irrigators in the Milk River
valley with all the water they need.
Irrigation has been somewhat deferred
previous to this time because the un-
certain supply of water in the Milk
River held people back from preparing
for irrigation farming. The water
is here now and the irrigator has a
perpetual drouth-insurance policy for
the protection of his crops.
