And jthe firs.w6rk to ward this erid niust. e pn . with the plow, r lt is not, too iuchto say that we have yet to learn how to use this implement. To realize this, one Should see the plowing-matches at the English agricultural fair, or even those held so near to us as Canada. It is not so much the plowing that one is struck with as the system. The plowing is perfection; a furrow half , a mile long of equal width and depth, as measured with a rule, and straight as an arrow, and aland which looks from the visitors' stand like a row of parallel straight lines. But we see men who have given their lives to learn the art of plowing, whose an cestors have been plowmen for gener ations, and who are therefore born plowmen. They are, moreover, taught to excel by a system of matches and prises. Boys there com pete with their plows, and are .thus early trained in the way they should go, and the whole year is but a prac ticing time for the annual trial of skill. Ifc-.is equally . so among our neighbors, the Canadians, who have transDlanted the old fashion from' their native soils. On this side the line we have nothing like it. Our boys have no ambition to excel. In this, as in other things, they are unwisely and unfortunately ignored ; while the farmers themselves would rather seea hftrsetrot lrr:40Hlran plow a furrow, at any time. A plan to change all this,, suggests itself. Let plowin matches be instituted at our tural fairs. Yfherc is no possible -h f i c u 1 1 v .
