On t he whole we have had a fairly successful year, but from t he point of view of the harvest it has been exceedingly unsatisfactory. \V'eather conditions have proved very detrirrnental to the crops. A general sur­vey of the harves t season may be found under farm notes.

... ... ...

The Tennis Committee has been very slack during the past yea r. This will be r·el1ledied as far as possible, next year. If s ufficient funds can be raised new nets will be procur ed , t ogether with side posts. The pr·esellt ones are in a v·ery dejected tate. Apparently, the t OlJ rnaments wer e started somewhat late. Consequent­ly the championship could not be played off. Endeavors will be made next y ear to have a few tennis fixtures. This will no doubt bring the game up to a better standard .

... ... * A new a dd-i tion has been made in front of the Col­

lege, in t h e shape of a flag-pole. The pole is placed 011

top of a framework of wood, which used to be part of the old windmill. The erection of the whole was COll­

dll C' ted under the abl e supervision of lVIr. Williams, the Coltege blacksmith. The flag is flown only on special Ot tasions.

During the past session the College Oval has ploughed and the soil has been broken down to a condition of tilth. Couch grass also has been Up to the pr,esent, however, the grass has not very promising growth; and it is v'ery doubtful the ground will be in a fit condition for the football season. The student's thel!nselves have done most of work., which thanks to Professor P.erkins has been tinned with zeal.

* * *

The vintag'e this year proved exceedingly poor. The yi'eld from the Doradillos, however, was most satisfac­tory. The hot weather conditions, which prevailed dur­ing the last few weeks, proved most disastrous.

* * *

We give our heartiest congratulations to Mr. E. L: Orchard, our Farm Manager, who was recently married. We wish him and Mrs. Orchard every success, and hope that for many years to come he will occupy the posi­tion he now enjoys . He was once a student here, and afterwards worked on the College Fal'm for a short time. On the resignation of Mr. Richardson, as Farm Manager, Mr. Orchard was appointed to take his place.

* * *

Consjderable improvements have been made on the Colleg'e Farm during the past year. Roa:d-making has been an important undertaking, and has proved most

• successful. Thcl'e is still much to be done in connectlOB with this form of improvement, but undoubtedly great str~des have heen made towards this end.

* * *

Accounts will be found later on of the events of our cricket e"even. Undoubtedly, J.

l\Iurray was the most prominent figure. His ba performances were superb, while his bowling was only little less conspicuous. The cricket dev'en has lost g-ood man. and a splendid captain.

THE S'l'UDEN1 .

Speech Day.

This day , which terminates the College year, was kept up on March 6th.

Although the weather proved rather uninviting, a fair number of parents and visitors made the trip­most of whom arriV1ed pe'r medium of the Gawler drags early in the aft-ernoon.

The busin ess of the day was speedoily got under way. The Principal presented his report for the year, after which, Mr. Rudall , M.P ., who was in the chai.r in the absence of th~ Minister of Agriculture, Hon. T. Pascoe, M.L.C. , also gaV'e an address. A short pithy speech by Mr. G. R. Lafler , 'M.P ., followed, after which the Diplo­mas and priz.es w ere pr'esented by Mrs. RudaU.. After­noon tea brought to a close a happy and successful

function.

H. A . Follett . We extend our hearti-est congra tnla­tions to our g old m edalist. As a scholar he was bril­liant. He also played in the football eighteen , was a good 'runner, I a nd a fair t ennis player. Apart from these a chievements, during the past year he was H ead Librar­ian , Editor of " The S tudent , II a nd was on the Dance Committee i a nd i t is p a rtly owing to his influence that the Christian U nion h as been kept tog-ether at this College.

A. F. Harper. We r egret to publish the news of departure of the renowned" Yapper." DUIli.ng the year he played for the football eighteen. He will chief·ly remember-ed for his good-natur-e and happy_g~ lucky manner; his energy and robust frame. In Diploma Examinations he obtained a Second Class. Diploma, with honors in Surveying and Wool-classing.

II. G. ::\Iortill1'er. " Algernon ," good-bye , and good­luck! Algy did not take part in any games, but acted a s trainer to the football team. No doubt this contri­buted greatly towards .:ts success. He obtained a S econd Class Diploma in the final examinations.

G. R. Webb. During the past y ear "Webby 1I held the proud position of Co uncilman. \\"e do not intend to discuss his m erits or demerits , for we are afraid he had n either. H e was absolutely neutral. Nothing ever seem ed t o w orry him or upset his equilibrium wh:ch. was a t a ll times s table. He represented the College both in the foo tba ll and cricket teams.

A Stt'aight Talk

(By E. G. ROBERTS).

'. . •

As a for·eword, let me say that the matter con­i ained herein is wriHen chiefly in the hope that those students wh o hail from the city, with the intention of ultima tely going on the land, may find something which will be of ser v'ice to them.

N ow, in the first place convince yourselves that, in spite of wha t some ·enthusiasts say to the contrary, it is all m oonshine about a Roseworthy Diploma holder

·st raight fro m the CoUege, without any more experience than t hat g ained there, being in a position to capa.bly manage a property d'evoted to any branch of agricul­ture demonstrated at Roseworthy. The reason for this is that the private property is first and last a concrete business proposition, whereas Institutions such as the College a r e not , and so the management of one has lit­tle in common with that of the other.

The r eputation of the CoUege depends on the .a chi eveIJlents of lits past students, and yon therefore Owe it not only to yourselves, but also the College to see that y ou do not launch out independently, without firs t being reasonably well equipped with practical ex­perience. From the foregoing I would not have you think I a m deprecating practical work at the College, far frol11 it , but. running a farm, etc., consi'sts of more than drivi ng a t eam, and working various implements.

Page 13: Vol. - University of Adelaide · PRIZE LIST. THIRD YEAR Gold medal (presented by the Royal Agricultural and Hort.icultural Society for the highest aggregate in all diploma subjects),

l' rson ally , I hav'e no hes1itation in admitting that tho ll~h I lived on a f.arm for the first twelve year~ of 111 r h f.e, . s~ent all hohday.s , while . at school, on varioua. [a nll S pIckmg up all the 1l1fot'ma'blOn I could, then spent t w o year s at R.A.C. and went straight on my own 't wouM have r equir'ed only a liHle less experience on 'rn~ pa rt fo~ the res~ts of the firs t year to have been fat liess satIsfactory, If not actually em.barrassing. 'true ex­per ienoe is a good teacher" but it is apt to prove to!) dear , unless gained under a nother 's guidance .

'to m y mind the best way is to hav'e at least a re~ on a good fa rm, a nd then go to Roseworthy, when a £ellow is in a p os'ition t o appreciate the work and ex­per im ents being carried out , and at the same time stor~ up a ll t he good points for personal use later on. In any case at, least a year 's practical 'experience should ~ gained befor e aHeltnp-t ing an y thing for oneself.

So far as inside w ork :~s concerned I would urge aU w ho r·eally m ean t he gam e to stick to all veterinary subje'cts fr om the s t a rt , as I have found that practi­cally not a week p asses in which that knowledge in. some form or o ther cannot : be used to advantage. Need­less to say the only w ay t o do this is to make each leotur e yours on the day it is giv'en , and I can assure you t hat ,the t ime so spent will never be regretted.

A nother section 01 the course which will more than repay close a ttention being paid to itj, is that portion of stock -' notes dealing with the " Care and management of a Farm Frock during the course of a year." For a clear a nd compr'eh ensive guide it woul'd be indeed diffi­cult to beat, a nd it is a ll the more worthy of attentioll because a ll th e p oints dealt with are unlikely to occur on a nyone farm in a single season, and hence" 'to be for'ewarne d is ,t o be forearme d. "

Outs'ide, a pa rt from the ordinary practical work it will be la t 'er found of great sc'rvice to (if necessary) worry Mr. Wilbams in y our First, S econd, and 'third year s until you know a ny mak'e of binder from A to Z. Get to kn ow exactly wha t each pa rt of the machine has to do a nd how it does it; a nd then one should have little diffi culty in finding t he fault in the paddock . at h a n 'est t im e. Further , when ,in the erop with tht: machine see t o it tha t y ou do y our own r epairs and adjustm ents, a n'd don ' t be satis fied t o ha ng

. lIll king while Vic. Daly or some other mechanic doe~ [helll for yO ll . 1~hc reason for the abov-e advice is that Oil lhL' ordi nary wheat farm the boss does the binding, ~l.lld ) ' 1I stand a good chance of getting litHe, if any, 'xpcricnce with the machine, which, when it goes wrong,

is easi ly the most difficult one of all on the farm to work properly. Is it: not something beyond a farce that students, or at 1east sev1enty-five per cent. of them, knoW and learn practically nothing of this machine un­til a few days before "Oral Agri," and probably forget wha:t they pick up then just as soon after the examination ? .

One more point here, namely: The College offers many spl'endid opportunities for becoming acquainted with various types and patterns of implements, both ancient and modern, and a study of their construction, merits and demerits, and also prices will be found of use later on when collecting your own plant.

When the time comes to pick up your own plant the first consi·deroation wqill be hors-es. In this line get the best YO U can afiord, but do not think it is essential to -get all young stock, while on the other hand it is far from desirabloe to havoe all crocks.

::'\iy own team was purchased from a reputable dealer at a cut avoerage price per head, including har­ness. The ages varied from three to fifteen years. This scheme appears to m·e to hav-e much to recommend it, as the team has given every satisfaction to date. See that you secure an all-round team, i.e., all the horses must work satisfactorily together in the plough and cultivator, etc., while at least two must be suitable for shafters , and the res1:fi:t for the body or lead when it comes to waggol1 work .

In selecting other working plant such as implements~ etc., ev-ery time go for SECOND-HAND stuff. The best way to do this is to attend clearing sales until you get what yo u require. If, after deciding what an article is worth to you, it Letches more, let it go, for you are practically cert-ain to get what you wa~t sooner or later. Plows are the only risky second-hand purchases, as it i's pos~ble they may be strained and, if not use­less, at least horse k11lers to pull. Therefore, unless you can' h certain Ithat such an i1mplement is alright, it may he Cl(lnsahle to invest in a new plough. Be careful in

de ling wilh agents in either new or second-ha nd goods HS the a r e u S lla~ly prejudi cc~ in favo~ ~f what the; h appen to be se1l1l1g at the Hme, and it is practically certain you will nol get a bargain in that quarter.

1\1 y r easons for urging the purchase of second-hanel -plant a r e these:-

Firs tly, t he trel1];endous saving in initial outlay ; e.g. m y pla nt, including a new four-furrow plough, cost £88 5/ -· N ow a complete new pla nt would have cost £259 15/ - a t current m a rket r a t es .

Secondly, the loss through damage done t o old irn­p leIn-ents, du\:! t o inexperience in any form, is compara­tivd y -trifling, wher ea s in s imilar circumstances a new machin e will deprecia t e in va lue out of all proportioll, ev'en if n o t 'spoilt for th e r est of its life.

Thirdly, a fter a few seasons it m ay be found that t he t y p e of implem ent used is not. tha t bes t suit ed for your purposes, a nd second-ha nd implem ents can then be cheaply r eplaced by m or e suitable t ypes : e.g ., lllY own

cultivator is a Schra pel , s imil a r in cons truction to the old Martin ' s at t he College. I now know that a single V paUern would g ive better r esults on m y bad sidt:­li ngs, 'a nd so by getti ng the implem ent second-hand have be'en saved t he 'expenditure of from £ 1 2 to £. 20 extra. fo r a new im plem 'ent tha t w ould not ha ve gin n COnt-

Referri ng t o " The Student" it is interesting to note, that through the kindness of F. K .. WatsollJ, who is taking the g r a duate course at the University of Edin­burgh, we have been abJoe to see cop~~s of a magazine publ ished in t h a t University, and likewise called the " Student."

A number of old students have, of late, visited the College, a nd of these may be mentioned A. L. Tilley, who now h as a son of his own here, and E. J. Clarke, who is farming in the Tommin District of. Western .\us­trali a. F rom him we hear of H. and 1\1. Leake, Dyer, Packham, H unter , and Donnell, who are all within meet­ing di tance of one another , and have in the recent har­,-est done exceedingly well .

In the southern portion of that same State, Beard has heen cart ing super . fifty miles , and stores ditto before the winter rains set in. Afte r that event he he­come's isolated owing to bad roads. Cumming is farm­ing his hundred acre "ranch," and no doubt more will be heard of t he lucerne pa·tch. Hester appears to have become extinct s ince he left the College, but some clay we hope to hear of him again , and trust that he will be able to raise a mem·bership subscription.

Of t hose closer home, Hill is auctioneering at Clare, and we wish him good luck.

A crisis h a s been reache d in British politics, a crisis which h a:s been approaching during the past century. Back through the dim vista of history we can trace its course.

A General Review of the Harvest Season, 1913 -14.

W'e can attribute the past bad season to three main causes:

(a). Absence of rain during the early m onths or the s'eason; i. e., during the month April to Jul\' . . -

(b). Unev'en temperature during the season. This a ffect ed, to no small degree, the ripening of the grain. Also cool weather followed bv very hot weather was ' sometimes experi­e nced . Ther e was not a uniform tempera­ture.

(c). The' presence of " r ed rus t. " This undoubted-ly caused great havoc among many of the crops ; and was an. important factor in re­ducing the yields.

Let us revi'ew, in the firs t place, the wheat retunls .-0£ the Season I'913-q. In the firs t place the aYerage of 6.34 bushels per acre attain ed was exceedingly poor. If we examine the returns [rom the' different yields we -shall find that o. SB. comes first with an ayerage of 6.5 I bushels . . This is sO'11lewha t surpris'ing as this crop was t h ough t to be a r ath er good one. The varieties giving the best r esults in the various .fields may be summarised as foll ows: .

Marsh a ll ' s ?>R, in Daly 's, with a n average of 9.2 bushels -per acre.

G luyas, Sel. 7, in No. SR, with a n avcrage of l) . . :q bushels per acre.

Gluyas , ScI. 4, in No . .'i H, with an a ' -e raITe of 8."\ bushels ,., ,

Queen Fan, Sel.

J(i ng's R d, ScI.

per acre. 2, in Ebsary's B . with an average or -8.5 bushels p er acre.

7, in 1"let't 's , with an average of 7·59 bus hels per acre.

Tlle Burl returns for the season w ere quite satis-{oct ry. In fa t the average yield from Flett's (23.26 bnshels per acre) was most sa tisfactory. The total an'rage yield of 11·9 bushels per acre was very fair. It is noticeable that, wher-eas the "Roseworthy Oregon" in Ebsary's A only gave an average yield of 8- 7 , bushels per acre, we find that in Flett's it gave an average yield of 27 ·38 bush els an exceedingly high yield when we take into consi-deration the general conditions of the season. Again , the "Shorthead" in Flett's gave an average yield of 18.1-8 bushels, whereas in Ebsary's it yielded on a n average 6.39 bushels per acr-e.

The abov'e facts are somewhat diffi cult to acconnt for , but no doubt the conditions at seeding time must have been far more favorable in Fle tt's than in ElYsary's. It is hardly con ceivable that the fonner yield received more rain than th e latter, even though the fields are separ­ated from one another by a mile or so.

Farm Notes, 1913 14.

\ore had not long to wait on r eturn from our holi­days before harv'est was upon us ; and a mongst the first operations was en silag,e-making from the peas in Dahlitz. These wer e cut with the side delivery mower, as the binde-rs would not touch them. WruUe this was in progress binding for hay was _ commen ced. It was at thi s stage t h at the havoc played by red rust was most noticeable.

The crops in gen er a l were fa r below the average, and I oor results could only b e expected. -

No. 6C, which was int-ended for grain, was converted into a hay crop, which would hav-e made very unsatis­factory fodder if the prevalence of lu cerne h ad not en­riC :ltcl its quality.

Sev-eral of t h e hav cr ops w er e thus improved, name­ly, ,H, nD, and (~rainger's plots. The heavy r a in, though d structive to grain crop as well as hay results, was beneficia! to the growth of lu cerne, which was pla:ltecl in these crops, and thus was not altogether such an evil as at first sigh tone 'I11igh t think.

F. C. Andrews Bats left ha nd. Fair ba t and field, but lacks confidence in himself.

L. J. Clarkc Very good change bowler ; very keen. Fair bat and saf'c field a nywhere.

F. H. Dealy Playeel in f'ew matches. Good bat. , inclined to be too ,defensive. Good field at point.

T. S. Dealy Goo·d bat, but too fond of hitting be­fore he is s·et. Good change bowler. Should be more alert in the Held .

D. H. Killicoat Bats and bowls left hand. Very good fidd anywhere. \\"hen set is an aggressive bats-man. Bowled well towards end of the season.

J. T. lVIllrray (Captain) Brilliant bat; hit's hard all round the wicket, his driving being magnificent ; very good fast and leg break bowler; excellent field anywhere. His absence was felt in our flrst three l11.atches, but during the remainder of the season he cap­tained the team with sOHlld judgment, and was un­doubtedly the main Jactor of the College winning the premiership.

C. J. Prevost Has kept wick'ets very well during t he ,season. Very good bat with splendid strokes on the 011 side, but was unlucky.

S. J. Sibley One of the best all round men in the team. PUl1j~shing batSlllan with a variety of scoring strokes. Excellent ue,ld in slips. Good leg break bowler.

O. S. Symon (Vice-Captain) One of the best men in th team. Very fine left-hand bat with strokes all -rounel the wick-et. Excellent field in the slips. Very good m edium pace bowler, and with Murray, did l~ost of the bowling. During ::Uurray's absence he eapt allled the ' team with judgment.

13. IVr. Taylor Uncertain bat. Safe field, and at times bowl's well .

S. C. Vohr Good defensive batsman. Worth his

place in the team for his fielding a lone. C . R. \\'c11h Vcry fair bat. Splendid fie ld at cover.

Always trying.
