Early last month Mr. E. D. Smith, ex- 

 M.P., Winona, Ont., appeared before the 

 board of railway commissioners at Ottawa 

 and discussed express rates on fruits to 

 Winnipeg .and the maritime provinces. He 

 asked for lower rates on fruit to Montreal 

 t.T encourage the export trade. Mr. Smith 

 was convinced that a profitable trade in 

 peaches could be worked up with the Eng- 

 lish firms if lower rates to Montreal were 

 obtainable. 



Potato Culture. — An interesting and 

 valuable work on "Potato Culture" is is- 

 sued by the Aspinwall Mfg. Co. It includes 

 articles on the preparation of the soil, selec- 

 tion of seed, how deep to plant, distance 

 apart to plant, harvesting the crop, profits 

 per acre. A free copy of this book may be 

 secured by writing to the above company 

 at Guelph, Ont., or at Jackson, Mich., and 

 mentioning this paper. If you request it, 

 they will also mail you a copy of their latest 

 catalog. 



Spraying outfits that have caused consid- 

 erable favorable comment among practical 

 farmers and fruit growers are the I. H. C. 



Famous line. Besides their wonderfully ef- 

 ficient spraying qualities, the engine can 

 easily be detache<l and used for regular 

 farm work. This feature alone has induced 

 thousands of farmers to decide on an I. H. 

 C. spraying outfit. Ask the local Interna- 

 tional agent about the I. H. C. Famous line 

 of spraying outfits, or drop a line direct to 

 the International Harvester Company of 

 America, Chicago, U. S. A., for catalog and 

 anv definite information you desire.
