A ensus Of Canadian farmers would

not farmers sons and were not

on the score Of poor farming methods
In general. the excellency Of their

universal demand for their livestock
products refuting this efrcctually. Sig
nificant Is It, too, that practically all
the farmers who have achieved the
most signal honors at international
farming competitions have o been
lifelong farmers, but city men who,
taking to the land after reaching ma.
turity without the remotest previous
knowledge Of agricultural activities,
have through intelligent study and
close application of the best farming
methods surpassed the efforts Of those

giOns for part Of Its honey supply.
There is not the local prejudice to dark
honey which exists in the clover re-
gion and in the West. All these fac
tors taken together make the region
n of promise. The enormous num-
Der of colonies Of bees In this region
Is pointed to rs proof Of the great
nectar resources, and II these colonies
are given proper care vast quantities
of honey can be produced.
The abandonment Of the gums
and bOx-hives and the adoption of
modern equipment, together with prac-
tees more suited to the region, is ad.
vised. The region, 1t is said, needs
men engaged in Bookkeeping on
a commercial scale as q chief or only
occupation. The peculiarities of the
region, however, are such as to de-
mand a close study Of the business.
Careless beekeeping, it Is pointed out,
is entirely Improbable, especially in
places where the main honey flow
comes so 500 after the last killing
frost Of the spring.

cusses methods for carrying on the

SCIENCE ON FARM
AgricuIturist Of Today Must
Know Business Thoroughly.
Canadian TilIers Of the Soil Have
Proved That Old Days Of Hap
hazard Methods Have Gone.

Agriculture In Canada has the sta.
tus OF a profession which both its high
standard Of operation and the prime
place II occupies In national life justi-
fy. The days when land was casually
filed on and farmed without any in
telligent understanding Of agricultural
processes are going with the dwindling
availability Of the land, and rapidly
passing Is the epoch of the destruc-
tion Of soil values, and the abandon.
ment Of farms which have been rem
dered unproductive. Clearer and clear
err has become the realization that
farming IL n specialized profession re-
quiring special training, and in the
place Of this spoliation there Is an
intelligent system of crop rotation,
preservation Of the virtue Of the land,
a discovery Of the nobility Of the
farmers calling and n determination
to secure and achieve the best pos
sible In everything.
The Education Of the Farmer.
Agricultural colleges, experimental
farms, government literature, railway
propaganda, oil In an appreciation of
the national benefits which accrue,
contribute to the education Of the
farmer who, II he starts out in igno-
rance, speedily discovers the futility
and proftlessness Of continuing In
this state. 1t Is only Of comparatively
recent years that farming In Canndn
has become the comprehensive and ex.
haustive study II is and Its tenets
been so widely absorbed, and older
farmers who have followed h%aphazard
methods or systems scientifically un-
sound are gradually forced from neces-
sity into an intelligent study and ap-
plication Of their profession.
This brings us to the city man who
Is anxious to leave his old life for the
greater freedom of the country and
take a farm for himself, and, the fore
going holding good, he need not follow
far behind the older farmer II he take
up the study Of his work seriously,
bring energy and intelligence to bear
upon a following out Of the systems
Of experienced and successful agricul-
turists, and utilize the results Of the
expert investigation and research the
Dominion places Mt his disposal. The

With the tons and tons cs nectar

cause the colonies of bees are not
strong enough to get the full amount

this area may furnish many times

by Il. f. Phillips and George S. De-

ton.

There were some palms with great
branches and spreading leaves. Plants
and ferns which lad grown too fast
were clipped off so they wouldn't
go up through the ceiling!
OF course they couldn't do that, hut
they would push other plants out Of
the way and bend over and break
themselves so they had to be stopped
from growing too much.
In one house which was called the
''show house" there were tulips of all
coiors and gay famingo lilies, orchids
which were called Indian Orchids and
orchids known as Tiger orchids. The
Orchids were quite decided I'm letting
everyone know that they liked warm
and sunny weather and that they
would complain II the weather were
cloudy and bad, though they liked

There were long pink hanging

flowers which dropped and hung down
