Second Season. 



The Soya beans and cow peas have been .i;rown heans and 

 from seed which the Department of Agriculture, I'EAS. 

 Washington, D. C. kindly sent us. This is the first 

 time we have been successful in getting any yield 

 from Soya beans on this farm. The Cow peas germi- 

 nated well and we hope to obtain a supply of seed 

 from these which will enable us to plant out a large 

 area very soon. Beans ought to be an exceedingly 

 valuable crop under present circumstances, but the 

 difl&culty of harvesting them unless where labour is 

 plentiful will probably prevent their being grown on 

 any large scale. 



The return given below shows at a glance the ■ iVE stock. 

 large number of live stock now on the farm. 



Cattle are thriving splendidly : pigs are also very 

 satisfactory. Poultry do well. The few sheep on the 

 farm are thriving.
