Notes and Events.
Two years ago the American A.g riculturist gave a prize of SOOdbla. for the best acre o-' oats grown in the United States. The prize acre yielded the enormous quantity of 123 bushels. This oat is called White Bonanza. It is said to withstand the heaviest winds and rain without suffering. Mr J. L. Salzer (the grower) writes of it : — " There is no oat ever planted that has given such universal tatisf action as my Peerless White Bonanza From the hills of Minnesota 'o the sunny slopes of Florida and Texas, from the prairie of the north-west to the GokW Gate, glowing reports come regardiug the earlinoss, vigor and yield of the White Bonanza. Its strong points are many, its yield everywhere astonishing. It is early ripening, and matures full plump kernels." If this oat possesses anything near the good qualites cUimed for it by the grower, it should prove a most accept tble additfor. to the varieties now being cu'tivated in the colony.
