The Rev. j. G. Vanier B. A, has been
offered the Rectorship of ST. Johns Parish
(to be vacated in June by the Rev. Canon
Wntson) by the Bishop and Vestry of st.
Johns Church, and he hes accepted the
living. He will probably take up his resi-
deuce among us after the meeting of the
Synod in July.
Mr.. Vanier is no stranger to St. Johns
Congregation having laboured acceptably
and energetically in ST. Pauls' parish,
and later at Holy Cross for many years.
His old friends in the country will doubt
less be glad to have him among them
again. Mr.. Vanier has proved himself
a Jealous, faithful, aud hardworking priest
wherever he has laboured in the Diocese Of
Antigua, and, feeling confident that be will
show the same zeal and faithfulness among
us, we bid him welcome and trust that his
Rectorship may prove a happy one to himself
and a blessing to the Church over which he
will preside.

For Truck Crops

Every farmer ought to pre-
care for the truck patches as
soon as it is convenient. Gen
orally speaking, it is highly de-
sirable that preparations be made
some tint during fall and winter.
Such work as breaking, spread
ing, spreading manure, fencing,
etc, should be done some time
before the spring rush. If the
work is not done till spring there
is likely to be delay, ond seldom
do the crops grown under condi-
tons of spring preparation do as
well as If the preparation had
been done earlier.
It is especially important that
coarse manure and little from the
farm be applied during winter OF
at leost some time before spring,
If this is not done the litter will
hardly have time for decay and
be converted INTO humlis-
Vegetable matter will be very
important for d large yield of
truck crops Without vegetable
matter ii It's fffai degree Of de-
comrosition the soil will not
readily give up its plant food nor
will it hold moisture well. Be
sides this, the soil will need a
large per cent Of organic motter
