The United States Department of Agriculâ€" ture has issued a circular suggesting to the various golf clubs throughout that country that they provide nesting places to attract birds on to the courses, in the interests of farming as well as creating an addition to the pleasure of the golfers themselves. The expense of esâ€" tablishing these bird" sanctuaries would bhe nominal, it is pointed out, and the accruing benefits would be very great. Not only would these birds keep down the destructive pests which devour the crops, but they would attack the insects which are such a cause of annoyâ€" ance to the players. They would do absolutely no harm, and would well repay the small amount of trouble and expense incurred. : The plan, it is suggested, is worthy of adâ€" option in Canada. â€" Great efforts have. been made to encourage the protection of insectiverâ€" ous birds, and these éfforts have not been withâ€" out success. Every source should be called upâ€" on to take part in the campaign, for there is nothing of more importance than the battle against these insect foes of agriculture, which are assuming a strength of mengcing proporâ€" tions. With all the artifiicial means of holdâ€" ing them in check, they continue to increase in volume, and nothing yet has been discovered to equal the efficacy of birds in the work of keeping them under. With sanctuaries here and there, serving as breeding places for these busy little friends of the farmer, the problem of coping with and overcoming the menace would be brought much nearer to a solution. _ People who look on the dark side of things never shine.â€"Watertown Standard.

Though this decline entails cetain social disâ€" abilities, already mentioned, it does not mtean an economic disability to the farmers themselves. It means, rather, a lowerâ€"production, less comâ€" petition, and consequently better reâ€" turns. To the mation and the world, howâ€" ever, this decline in productive powâ€" er in agriculture means a distinct 1oss. For agriculture more than any other productive occupation creates wealth, and a a.@;e in productive power in this class means a decline in wealth production. Hence rural depopylation is less a problem for rural people than for townspeople and for the nation. _ _ _ _ j Where dairying or fruitgrowing 1 are followed extensively with mixed \ farming the population tends to reâ€" "maln steady.

Census Returns. ®*" \In an analysis of the 1921 cénsus returns, President Reynolds declarâ€" ed that the districts surrounding large cifies have become suburban areas, places of residence for those working in the city. Such a district encourages specialâ€" ized and intensive farming (a) to furnish local supplies of food, such as milk, fruit and vegetables; (b) to supply. raw material for city manufacturers. (There is little coâ€" ordination in this matter between farming and city manufacturing). Where climate and soil are favorâ€" able .intensive and specialized farmâ€" Ing is on the.increase, with correâ€" sponding increase in local populaâ€" tion.. The mixed farming areas, without large local markets to encourage specialized farming, bave declined heavily in population. For instance: Huron, Bruce, Grey and Dufferin. There are 24 cities in Ontario, with a fotal population of 1,063,565. ‘The decennial increase is 274,444, of 34.8 per cent. Only one city, Owen Sound, declined in population in the period.
