It is repro- duced here in the hope that a bet- ter understanding of the farming problems of the North may re- sult from wider publicity of the . work that the experimental sta- tions are doing in the interests of the settlers. The station at Ka- puskasing has not been in exis- tence for very many years, but already it has proved of great assistance to those who are close enough to take adyantage of the experience gained through scien- tific methods of farming and through experiments which are constantly being made in order that the best systems may be ap- plied to the problem of wresting a livng from the soil: In Kapuskasing we have come to take the Dominion Exeprimen- tal Farm, at our very doors, very much for granted. We see it in all its beauty in 1929, and the pic- ture of the primeval forested area that was in 1914, when it was selected to serve its present pur- pose with some official misgiving dims in the memory of those who witnessed it fifteen years ago. In that span of time a world- war has come and gone, transfor- ming conditions of human living profoundiy to almost every re- motest corner of the globe. But here, on the banks of the Kapus- kasing River, in the heart of the North's great clay belt, another revolution, another transforma- tion has taken place peacefully. The traditional empire of frost has been boldly challenged and discomfited ; mankind has extend- ed its food-producing frontiers once more. When the selection of this site was determined upon, the war had not broken out, and the plan laid down for the development of this experimental station was a modest one. The Dominion agri- cultural atthorities wished to test the capabilities of the 'clay belt, about which something had already been said and_ predicted, and it was thought that a branch of the experimental farms system was the best means of accom- plishing this. Then came the war. It was not long before internment camps for aliens were found necessary, and--ve must credit some clear- official at Ottawa with that the aliens vt out of harm's fully employed Northern bush of 1914 into ot Before ternment een done, verintend- 'tyne the steadily .e farm at e cond larg-|§ 'ntal farm, and most .iw tinder cultiva- uunual reports reveal the productivity of our clay belt loam with proper handling; and} with so many resources of the Dominion agricultural authorities concentrated at present upon the problem of improving strains of seed to better withstand North- ern temperatures and yet mature earlier, even better showings must undoubtedly be made. It may not be long before our farm- ers--on a strictly commercial ba- sis--get old Jack Frost pushed back behind his Arctic Cirele ramparts. Perhaps no present work of the Experimental Farms system is _more important than this- effort to push back tite "frost frontier." It is done by careful experiment- ation and observation, and it takes but a modest sum of public money to carry on the work as it should be undertaken, along with all the other incidentals of run- ning a demonstration farm for the benefit of settlers. There is a feeling in local quarters that the annual budget of the Domin- ion Department of Agriculture should show a larger amount set aside for the farm at Kapuskas- ing, in order that the superinten= dent may not be embarrassed in balancing his budget, which is a present no easy task. : sionists who will come up here to look ever what has Northern farms. are carried on on a practical ba- sis: the pleasing embellishments which make the farm such a ers might look forward to having as requitement for a few years of hard and intelligent work along approved lines. The transform- ation wrought in the prairie pro- vinces within the span of a quar- ter of a century can be more than duplicated in our North, for there is probably much more di- versification in the soil in this wide terrain than there is from Winnipeg to the Rockies, yet none of it need be regarded as absolutely forbidden ground for agricultural pursuits. The world's surplus population is surging into hitherto vacant spaces, and with the aid of scientific soil alchemy, establishing footing. The North can be made hospitable for pre- ferred selections of these land- hungry folks; and the logical way to stimulate their coming is to liberalize the work of the more Northern experimental farms. This is immeasurably better than the expenditure of millions of dollars upon grandiose immigra- tion schemes which throw new- comers too much upon their own resources at a time when they most need practical counsel and help. The Northern Tribune reflects more than its own opinion when it suggests that at least an ad- ditional $10,000 per annum should be put in the estimates for the Dominion Experimental Farm at Kapuskasing. It is not at all a matter of local boosting, for any reflected glory or pecuniary pro- fit to be derived by the town from its big farm neighbor. No struggling settler or farmer in the North could fail to benefit from a visit to it, and returning to his home he will spread the in our midst many farm excur-! beautiful attraction for visitors: are only such as any of our farm-!search for precious metals ;resources to be capitalized. But gospel of better farming methods and possibly arrange to directly been done, participate in one or more of the and so learn what can be done on| extension activities. The operations; We would go quite beyond this respectful recommendation, for ourselves, with an eye to the fu- ture. The North is now full of eager airplanes prosecuting the and we cannot all be gold seekers, or oil drillers, or capitalists exploit- ing nature's rich stores. These planes will be followed by more staid travellers, other means of communication will be developed, communities will spring up, ever farther North; and as they move in, the soil must be made to yield its utmost tribute. : Some years back when the first trickle of settlers went into the then remote Peace River country considerably north of Edmonton, the Dominion Department of Ag- riculture wisely (and cheaply) subsidized one or two "illustra- tion stations" to test out more or less scientifically the possibilities of the soil there. The results were of the greatest benefit to the thousands of homeseekers who have since gone into that territory, and this work has been considerably broadened out. No one has a word to say against it. Why not, then--looking ahead to the time when the shores of Hud-| _ son Bay will witness some thou- sands of population--establish an illustration station right now say at Fort Albany where experimen- tation can be undertaken to de- termine the character and pro- ductivity of the soil up there? It would take years--it always does--to average things up and reach conclusions that are sound- ly based, as guidance for those who cannot hazard too much. It would cost only a few thousands of dollars per year at first, and the benefit to future generations might be priceless. It will have to be done some time; we think the time to make a commence- ment is right now. alll an ln all il all ain all ie ae i VERITY JACK'S } } } ; } ; ; ; : } j } ; } ; } : ; } ; VIENNA ! ; } : } } THE PRIZE LOAF | If you are looking for Bread to suit your taste ; WE HAVE IT!
