Salford—A favorable wind saved the village of Salford from a serious conflagration on Thursday after noon last, when a barn at the rear of the blacksmith shop owned by Alex. McCulloch and another smaller building nearby owned by Miss L. Webster, were completely destroyed. Returning from Woodstock on a bus shortly before two o’clock that afternoon, Mr. McCulloch said he saw the smoke, when at Hagle’s jsLfk-rners, and stated to someone on T/.e bus that he believed it to be his blacksmith shop. He found out up on arrival home that it was the barn, immediately behind the shop. Fred Todd, aged six, and Alex. Todd, aged nine, children of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Todd,, Canterbury street, Ingersoll, and grandchildren of Mr. McCulloch, had been holiday ing at the latter’s home. They had been playing in the barn just prior to the fire and later admitted to their father that they had been playing with matches. When the blaze was in its early stages, fear was felt for surrounding Oidences in the immediate area. A call for help was sent to Ingersoll and Mayor A. H. Edmonds gave per mission for the pumper to be sent out with a number of men. Upon ar rival there, however, the fire was too far advanced for any assistance to be given, other than the firemen re mained on the scene to. be of help in case of other buildings catching fire. This did not happen apart from the small Webster building which stood adjacent to the barn. Mr. McCulloch informed the press that the iffcurance rates were too high and his barn was not covered this year as it had been in the past. In the McCulloch barn were a number of hens and some young chickens, but it is believed that all these were removed. There was also some straw, hay and other articles stored there. Miss Webster's build ing held nothing of particular value. The loss js estimated at $500. Mrs. George Groves Hostess To Salford W. I.

COOK VISITS FROM FORT SIMPSON A thousand-mile flight by freight plane was the first stage in Mrs. H. G. Cook’s . journey to her former home in London from Fort Simpson, Northwest Territories. She was ac companied by her 14-month-old son, David, and .will visit in Ingersoll and London, with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Thompson, Queen’s Avenue, London, untiT^ifter "Old Boys’ Week.’’ Mrs. Cook flew "out” to Edmon ton in March, before boats were running. She will fly "in” again, though she is to leave London on August 10, on her long return jour ney. She likes plane travel, and the opportunity to cover, in one day one thousand of the many miles between her parents’ and former home is too good to miss. The chartered plane for carrying mail and freight was com fortable, she said, and made four landings during the day. The former Londop girl who prior to her marriage three years ago, was Opal Thompson, likes her Northern home. Iler husband, Rev. Harry G. Cook, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Cook, Charles street east, Ingersoll, is rector of the Anglican Mission at Fort Simpson and has charge of the little day school which the white Protestant children of the settle ment attend. There is a Roman Cath olic mission, including a hospital^ as well. Fort Simpson stretches its scat- te/Sd dwellings, trading posts and offices for a mile along the Macken zie River, about mid-way between Great Bear and Great Slave Lakes. Most of the Indians who come in to trade and receive their treaty money are bush Indians. They make period ic visits of several weeks’ duration and during that time, Rev. Harry G. Cook, her husband, conducts services for them every evening. The white population is chiefly governmental. ’ In her log house, clapboarded and won to have the addition of a fur nace, Mrs. Cook finds her winters perfectly comfortable. Only once in her three years’ residence has the mercury dropped to 69 below and on that occasion she simply didn’t g<- out For the most part the win ter temperature remains around 35 and 40 below which Mrs, Cook saysis perfectly endurable, and,’ she in sists no colder to feel than a temper ature of one pr'two below in On tario. The short daylight hours of mid-winter are, in her opinion, fully compensated*for by the long bright hours of summer, when the gardens expansive with so much daylight, bloom riotously.

Avon Horse Killed While At Work While Wilfred Pigram of Avon, was cultivating turnips on Saturday afternoon, about 4 ^o’clock, his horse was struck and killed by a lightning bolt. He himself was rendered un conscious, it is estimated, for half an hour. When Mr. Pigram recovered, his horse was lying dead. Dazed, he found his way to t^he house.

VEALE, PublisherPHONESTribune Office, 18 - Residence, 442A.THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1938The Consumer Pays There is a great deal of confusion in people’s minds these days which is not cleared up by consider ation of some of the policies and practices of our governments. It used to be taken for granted that the most important economic problem was that of the consumer. We are all consumers. One may be a Liberal or a Presbyterian or an Elk or a farmer, or all of those at the same time or none of them. But whatever his other affiliations every one of us is a consumer. That is the only class label or designa tion which fits every human being. There are two kinds of consumers, those who work for a living and have to buy and pay for their own food, and those who do not work for a living but are fed by those who do, who thus have to pay not only for their own food but for that of the non-workers. Nobody wants to let the non-workers starve, but it would seem reasonable that they should not receive at public cost more food or better food than the workers can afford to buy for themselves. Yet we have before us the spectacle of the A.AA. in the United States buying surplus agricultural products in order to keep the prices up, and giving them free to people on relief, while the workers who have to pay for their food are thus compelled to pay higher prices, because that presumably benefits the farmers whose surpluses have been bought up. That sort of thing has been going on with potatoes, apples, .flour, canned goods, fresh vegetables, raisins, cheese, butter, eggs, oranges and many other commo dities. That it benefits the farmers when Governments pay them more than the open market would pay for surplus products may be conceded. That it benefits the non-workers on relief when this high-priced food is given to them is apparent. But in between are the great masses of ordinary consumers who are cer tainly not benefitted. They are the ones who pay. They pay a higher pri*« for their food in order to keep the prices up,and*to feed the non-workers. They can eat only what they can pay for. DiggingHard work means nothing to a hen.' She just keepson digging worms and laying eggs, regardless ofwhat the business prognosticators say about the outlook for this or any other year.If the ground is hard, she scratches harder.If it’s dry, she digs deeper.If it’s wet, she digs where it’s dry. If she strikes a rock, she works around it If she gets a few more hours of daylight, she gives us a few more eggs. But always she digs up worms and turns them into hard-shelled profits as well as tender, profitable broilers. Did you ever see a pessimistic hen? Did you ever hear of one starving to death waiting for worms to dig themselves to the surface? Did you ever hear one cackle because work was hard? Not on your life. They save their breath for digging and their cackles for eggs. TODAY andTOMORROWby Frank Barker StockbridgeNAMES................................. THE D O CTO R Telia The Story by W. E. AUGHINBAUGH, M.D. Limes The lime belongs to the citrous fruits and is culti vated similarly to the lemon and orange. The trees seldom exceed eight feet in height and can be grown in poorer and more exposed, though not colder, situ ations than either lemons or oranges. The leaves are heart shaped and the yellowish or greenish flowers are sweet-scented. The fruit is green or yellow and smaller than the lemon. There are two species of limes which grow in Eng land. Lyne, linde and linden are other old English forms of the name. The wood is used for cabinet work, musical instruments and carving. The master pieces of Grinling Gibbons, the famous English car ver and sculptor, were wrought in wood of the lime tree. Some of his outstanding work was done on the choir stalls of St. Paul’s and in Windsor Castle. Attempts are being made to popularize fresh limes on the tropical fruit market. The delicate skin is very subject to mechanical injury and liable to wast age through shrivelling but with care they can be shipped without losing their bright, shiny and attract ive appearance. Because they undergo little color change during cold storage, fruits for particular mar kets may be picked at approximately the required state. , The Island of Dominica supplied the greatest num ber of limes a few years ago. Now St. Lucia has taken the lead. Montserrat, Trinidad and Grenada are also producers. Most of the 13,000 boxes of fresh limes imported into Canada last year, came from the British West Indies.^^.ccording to figures supplied by the External Trade Branch of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Department of Trade and Commerce, the imports are about four times greater than they were five years ago. New Lights For Highways Most of the 40,000 people who are killed every year in automobile accidents met death on the open highways, where traffic is not unduly heavy, but the temptation to take chances on speeding is the greater for that reason. A high proportion of fatal accidents are due to darkness, and the dazsling lights of ap proaching cars. Experience has demonstrated that there are few serious night accidents on well-lighted city streets. Enfortunatey, it lias been impossible until now to light long stretches of country roads. The cost has been prohibitive. Now two systems of highway lighting have been invented and have given good results in practice, which are so inexpensive that any rural road district can afford them. One system which is useful only for hard-paved roads, is based upon imbedding a reflecting material in the road surface, so that the headlights pick out the roadway and show dearly whether there are any obstructions ahead. The other system is an ingenius deflecting device placed on posts or telegraph poles along the roadside, which catches the beam of the headlight and projects it ahead, lighting up the road for half a mile or so. Tw:o. or three of these to the mile are said to light thediighway almost as well as daylight. Betttr-lighLjd roads, and qon-glare headlights, “which have now been perfected and doubtless, will •be as. compulsory as safety glass in a few years, will help cut down the ghastly toll of motor deaths. “A Car Is Like A Cat” It is quiet, except for a slow and pleasing purr. Its padded tires are like padded feet. It has powerful eyes that shine at night And when it is allowed to run wild^ it' gives an awful screech-, at the moment before it does its victim to death. At 25/miles an hour, it is like a pussy-cat. It may scratch you up in gn accident, but it isn’t likely to kill you. Few fatal accidents occur at low speeds. 1 At 50 miles an hour, it is not twice, but four times as powerful. lake a bobcat, it is quite able to in flict great damage. At 75 miles an hour it is not three but NINE times as powerful as at 25.1 Nine-times as hard to stop - - nine times as hard to turn - - nine time* as deadly. SUPERSTITIONS To us of the present age it may seem startling to learn that primitive man built up a remarkable series of superstitions regarding stones of all kinds and in various entirely different 'ways. And to me what is the more remarkable is that many people, especially those residing in rural communities, still observe some of these ridiculous notions. As a young man I recall that in my town the Pfiel family’ had one possession which they cherished far above the value of any precious stone. It bad been handed down from father to eldest son in that family for generations, until all their neighbors had about as much faith in the wonderful things it could accomplish as the owner. When a pet dog, which 1 was teas ing, very properly bit me on the hand and arm, my mother rushed me to the Pfiels. Grandfather Pfiel/ took from a locked box, which was hidden in his trunk, a bundle which he unwrapped. When the covering was removed I observed that it contained a dirty stone about as large as a big walnut. This was wrapped about the most severe bite on my arm. “Don’t remove the bandage” said the old gentleman, “but bring the boy to me on the third day.” When I was brought to the Pfiel home, with much ceremony, the bandage was unwrapped and the stone was found to be stuck to the .wound, due of course, to the blnod drying and holding it there. “Now,” remarked Pfiel, knowingly, “William will get well because the mad-stone has sucked all the poison put of his arm.” The fact that I got well only confirmed Pfiel and our neighbors in the idiotic notion that this dirty stone' possessed mystic medicinal properties. The real wonder was that the filthy stone had not set up an infection, which might have resulted in me parting with my arm.• ♦ * ILLS AND EVILS Indians and men of the wild tribes of northerh and southern Asia today wrap large, heated stones re sembling babies and place them upon the bodies of expectant mothers. Yellow stones are carried to cure jaundice. Thousands of Americans carry stones in their pockets today, as a protection against disease or trouble. Superstitions die hard. The commonest family name in America is still Smith according to the largest list of names yet com piled. That is the list of 39,000,000 workers to whom Social Security numbers have been assigned. More than 470,000 of them are named Smith. The Johnsons come next, with 350,000 names. Next in fre quency are' Brown, Williams, Miller and Jones. A man’s name is no sure indica tion of his ancestry, since in America one’s name is whatever one chooses to call himself. Most people, how ever, keep the names of their fath ers and grandfathers. The prepon derance of the names I have listed indicates that the dominant racial strains in America are still British, German and Scandinavian. Smith is a name almost as common in Scotland as in England, though many Smiths are of German stock, their names having once been Schmidt. The names of William* and Jones are distinctly Welsh. Johnson may be either Scandinavian, Eng lish or Scottish, Miller is English or German and so is Brown.

But he had, also, ambition and personal vanity which made him believe that he was not bound by the ethical codes which men of honor follow.

Speaking of unemployment, a friend said to me the other day: “The greatest area of unemployment is. above the ears.” He was trying to en-(phasize tjie truth that most - people do not use their heads when looking for jobs. A day or two later I saw' a news paper paragraph about a young col lege graduate who used his head so well that he got four jobs when he only wanted jjne. He took competitive examinations for engineering posts in the army and Marine Corps and applied for Army~” service on the strength of his college record in the Reserve Officers Training Corps. Then he went out and hustled for a job in private employment, and got- one. 'After he had gone to work he received notice that he had been appointed to the Army post and that he had passed both of his engineer ing examinations. That boy, of course had special qualifications. But the point is that he didn’t sit down and wait for a job to come'his way. He used his head “ and got four jobs! Almost everybody has some special ability. Too few use their heads to find where those abil ities are needed. • • * . WORK . ... incompetency A young friend of mine started in business for himself as a plumb ing contractor about three years ago. He had no capital, but a lot of intelligence and moral courage. He knew his trade and was willing to'work hard. He told me the other day that he had jobs for a dozen good workmen if he could find them. The trouble with most workers, he said, was they tried to get by with poor work and take things easy. A building contractor I know, will not hire young Workmen because, he says, they don’t use their heads and don’t take their work sericush" enough to master their trades. I don’t know how far that is true generally, but I have an idea that it is pretty general. I think that the idea that boys should be kept in school until they are 16 or 18 has made white-collar loafers out of a great many young Americans who could have become first-class artisans if they had been! allowed to work when they were young^enough to learn a trade. EDUCATION . . . learning There is a homely old proverb which says: "You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s car.” All the schooling in the world will not make a scholar out of a person who is not capable of learning. Those who are capable will acquire learning and often wisdom in spite of lack of ed ucational “advantages.” I was re-reading the other night Rudyard Kipling’s autobiography. What struck me most forcibly was his efforts at self-education. He was under 16 when he quit school to go to work on a small daily paper in India. Inside of ten years his name was known all over the world. He was the greatest Ijter- ary genius of modem times. No university could have given him the understanding of people and life which he learned at first hand from personal contacts and hard work. CHARACTER education The older I grow, the more I rea lize that the qualities which we call “character” are more important than learning or technical skill A “AS A WOMAN SEES IF — By Arabella — ALAS FOR OUR MOTHER TONGUE! The Powers That Be have decreed that it is no longer necessary for students in the lower grades to study grammar; that they can learn the languages just as well and more easily by reading good literature. Such news at one time would have been welcome to us—Jt would have relieved us of the one bete noira of our school days, when we were lucky if we could make forty-nine and one- half per cent, on an exam., thereby being entitled to the fifty per cent, required for a pass. But now- we are thankful that no such effort was made to prolong kin dergarten methods in order to re lieve the strain for those who felt it. We are glad that the aim was rather to develop the faculties so that the Student learned to wrestle with a difficult subject, emerging, if not with added knowledge, at least with a satisfaction that vigorous exercise always gives. Life is becoming more and more technical requiring careful thought and reasoning, and it seems to us that the study of grafnmar can give just that. The body requires exer cise as well as food, and it is so with the mind. Good reading is most important, but by discarding gram mar, it seems as if the very laws by which literature is constructed are ignored; so that personal taste will be the only guide, with no one to prove that the language of Sir Walter Scott is superior to that of Octavius Roy, Cohen. It is -not enough that grammar might be taken up as an advanced study. The time to learn it is during the receptive years. We greatly fear that the mind lacking the stim ulus given tyy parsing and analyzing will not be as well prepared to in vestigate the why and wherefore of other problems of life as they occur. It is true that the study of gram mar has failed to enrich speech for many people. But it is difficult to see how those same people are likely to benefit by more reading, for they are the unreceptive type. In these days of social intercourse, everyone has opportunity to hear good English as well as faulty. But they choose for themselves, as in the case of the woman whose son received the V. C. for bravery in the Indian Mutiny, Queen Victoria when making the presentation, and noticing the lad’s youthful appearance, enquired his age—When told that he was just fifteen, she is reported to have said, “if I only had a knowed, you never would of went.” “And,” the mother added, for emphasis, “them’s Vic toria’s own words.” There is a reason for everything that is worth while, and grammar explains the reason for the construct ion of our language which is one of our priceless heritages and worthy of our study, although we do think that teachers might devise means to present the subject more attractively.

Serve it raw pressed with lemo^ juice and a dash of salt or combine it with orange sections and use it to stuff tomatoes for enticing sum mer salads. If you cook it, use as little water as possible and cook it covered for not more than fifteen minutes. Of course it must be very finely shredded for this quick cook ing.• • • To keep your house cool in torrid weather, observe a few simple rules. Do your sprinkling of porches, steps, walks and house foundation after the sun goes down. This puts into effect that old law of nature involving the principle of evaporation. Follow the sun around your house closing doors and windows and pulling down shades to keep out the sun and heat. Electric fans keep the air moving wh,ich has a cooling effect.♦ • • Choq,se a cloudy day to air your feather pillows. Pin them firmly on the clothes line in a breezy spot and let them stay out all day if there is no sun. Daily airing for an hour will keep your pillows light and fluffy. If your skin is dry this spring try a light, fluffy powder. Use a soft creamy foundation to make it stick. On the other hand, an oily skin needs a smooth, clingy powder— one that holds its own against oil and moisture. Don’t be'discouraged, but try several kinds. You will know when you have found the right one for your face if your complexion has a soft even finish that remains intact for at leasl two hours after powder ing. New cabbage is a splendid veget able to include in summer meals. You know, in the case of cabbage “new” doesn’t mean immature like “new” potatoes.

Hulless Oats ForWeanling PigiYoung pigs have high efficiencyfor the conversion of nourishihgfood into weight increase but lowefficiency for thb utilization offibre. Except for this latter fact,ordinary oata would be a suitable gain, but the hulls dilute the food too much, and, unless very finely- ground or else coarse enough to be rejected during mastication, they ir ritate and clog the digestive tract. It fa often advised screen oat chop for weanling pig* but this fa a laborious task frequently neglected. Unless mechanical means can be found to dehull ordinary oats, the simple way- fa to grow a var iety that threshes free of ’the hull. Years ago the late Sir (then Dr.) Chas. E. Saunders, bred two such varieties, Liberty and Laurel, for the express purpose of feeding young pigs and chickens and for making oatmeal porridge. Laurel pioved slightly the heavier yielder but fa rather short-strawed for droughty seasons. In 19 years’ tests at Beaverlodge Liberty proved about three and a half days earlier than Banner and yielded nearly 85 per per cent as much meat. In a brief comparison Laurel matured practic ally with Banner, yielding 53 bush els per acre as against 51 from Lib erty. Both varieties of hulless are prone to smut infestation and are easily injured by formaldehyde, but care ful treatment with copper carbon ate or mercuric dusts ensures a clean crop. Hulless oats cross readily with or dinary oats. It is important to take pains to ensure purity and then it may be necessary to go back from time to time for re-selected founda tion stock. Hulless oats are rather tough to thresh and summer storage in bulk is sometimes a problem. Feeding trials at Beaverlodge years ago indicated that when hul less oats constituted a large percen tage of the grain ration for pigs and poultry there was a pronounced tendency to overfatness, but this does not apply to a few weeks use for the weanlings. The hulless oats may be creep-fed whole on a clean ; board floor or in a flat trough.

Here is something for every mother to ponder over. According to a leading recognized medical author ity, diarrhoea and entiritis (which are synonymous with summer diarr hoea), was the first cause of deaths during the period 1925 to 1929. It is acknowledged in medical and scientific circles that common house flies harbor germs in and.on their bodies and may, therefore, introduce infections into foods on which they crawl. How important it is, then, to pro tect milk and other liquids, feeding bottles and other receptacles from these filthy pests that threaten the lives of children with typhoid, diarr hoea and other dangerous diseases. The dirtier the surroundings, the more flies will swarm, and multiply in their myriads. Out-of-doors breeding spots such as uncovered garbage should be tightly covered; all refuse, manure, rotting matter, etc., should be cleaned up; all food and drink should be protected with coverings, and windows and doors carefully screened, -dlf however, with these precautions taken, flies should find their way into your homej a few Wil son's Fly Pads placed around the house in convenient places, will soon kill them all. And, if the pads are kept in place during fly-time, they’ll go 4 long way towards protecting your children from summer epidem ics and your family and yourself from the dangers and irritation that are caused by flies. The butter and cheese grading term "no grade” has been replaced by “below third grade” by order-in. council on recommendation of the dairy* products marketing division, agricultural department, it has been announced. The reason for the change, the de partment said, was a misunderstand ing on the part of some purchasers of butter ns to what was meant by “no grade.” Consumers were being led to believe that “no grade” meant that the butter represented by this term had not been graded when ac tually it was intended to convey the information that the quality was so poor that a grade - was not placed upon it. The grade mark must be placed on the main panel of the wrapper and also on the carton (when such is used), and is a guide to purchasers of butter, informing them of the quality of the product contained in | the package. Every province in Can- I ada, with the exception of Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia, has made it compulsory by law to brand each print or block of creamery but ter with one of the grade marks described when offered for sale sold to consumers. aXi If you are fond of"G O O D’l l .

The Ingersoll Police Department held a transient over the week-end in the hope of finding out how much he might know about a break- in at the Winterhalt coal and wood office on Victoria street, last Friday night. Constable John Holmes, on his usual rounds, had spoken with the transient on Victoria* street. Later, the constable found the rear door of the Winterhalt office open, and saw that it had been forced. He immediately set out to look for the transient, and locating him, took him to the police office. On the transient he found a peculiar piece of metal with a partial hook upon its end as though it might be pressed into ser vice as a jimmie. Chief of Police Callander had Mayor A. H. Edmonds remand the man until Tuesday in the absence from town of T. N. Dunn, justice of the peace. Nothing was taken from the Win terhalt office. The cash drawer was found open, but nothing had been left in it when the office was lock ed up by the proprietors.

Be Careful Driving In Holiday Traffic Never pass around a car at the top of a hill. A car may be coming over the crest of the hill against you. Just observe when you are out driv ing how often you could have been trapped by the car coming over the other side of the hill. Trying to pass a car near or at the crest, of a hill is suicidal. You may be exasperated, following a slow truck up an incline. You ni.iy feel you can get around that truck safety, but the danger of a cai- eoming from the opposite direction is enormous. Consider also that since this car might be coming ot top speed and possibly running down grade, it would be that much harder to stop.Next to reckless speed, passing cars at the crest of a hill is the most dangerous mistake a motorist can make.

Clean, Then Paint Enthusiasm alone will not produce a good painting job. If you feel impelled to brighten up > drab looking bookcase, to freshen the gar den furniture, or to change thj cohr scheme of your kitchen, start with a clean surface. Scrub every nook and crevice with a well-lathered brush, for the corners will give you-away immediately if you try to cover up the dirt. Waih away the suds with clear vnrm water and allow the pieces ample time to dry before starting to splash on the paint. For only when the surface is immaculately clean can you proceed to indulge your color instinct with the confident assurance of an expert in the painting craft.

Cabinet Approves Highway Through I Waterloo, Oxford Hon. N- O. Hipel, member for South Waterloo, has announced at Galt that the Cabinet has signed an order-in-council in connection with the proposed new highway route from the Guelph-Hamilton Highway (No. 6) to No. 19 Highway at Hick son, in Oxford County. “The move will relieve the county and district of expenditure for up keep of that particular road,” Mr. Hipel informed the Galt reporter. “No expenditure will be made at the present time, and exact date of taking over the roads from the coun ties has not been decided. That is a matter which will have to be worked out There is no definite decision as to the route through Galt, or wheth er it will take the Cedar Creek or Roseville roacT out of Galt." Assumption of this route flras urged by a deputation from, Oxford, Waterloo and Wentworth counties on November -24 last at a meeting in Toronto with Hon. T B. McQues- ten. Oxford was represented by Reeve Charles Milton, of Blenheim; Reeve John Skillings and Deputy Reeve E. Hansuld of East 2orra; Reeve Charles Beaglcy, of Embro, then warden of the county; Tom Pratt, of Plattsville; L. E. Peterson of Drumbo; Mr. Potter and Reeve T. J. Costello of Blandford. The proposal had also been laitV before the minister theJ previous spring, when Messrs. Milton, Costello, Skill ings, Pratt and William Richmond took part in a deputation. The only definite part of the route at present is thab portion from Fjeelton, on No. 6 Highway, to Galt, along the ninth concession of Beverly. Did You Know That—? Unsightly scratches on a win low pane or mirror, if' they are not too deep, may often be eradicated by making a paste of glycerine, water and iron oxide. A hard felt pud is dipped in the paste and rubbed briskly back and forth over the scratched surface until the markings have disappeared. This simple procedure, of courte, is especially adapted for removing shallow scratches. Deep gougings will require more specialized treat ment. Many polishing materials used in mechanic*] method* utilize glycer ine as an essential ingredient News and Information Garden Slug Control Garden slugs are frequently nu merous on heavy land where they do considerable damage to beans, let tuce, cabbage, cauliflower and simi lar crops. Like other pests, slugs can be more easily controlled if remedal measures are applied when the animals are small and, few in number. To control them, the infest ed plants, (and the slugs) should be dusted with hydrated lime in the evening when the sun has gone down and feeding has commenced. Care should be taken to cover the upper and lower surfaces of the leaves and the soil immediately surrounding the plants. Hydrated lime is effective only when in the form of a light, dry powder. Lime becomes hard when subjected to moisture and in that condition is non-injurious to the slugs. For this reason, a few light applications of lime at intervals of 3 or 4 days are much more effective than one heavy dose. Another method of con trol frequently recommended is to spray the infested plants thoroughly with Bordeau mixture. This-mater ial is repellent to slugs, and if the foliage of the plants is completely covered by the-’ mixture, the slugs will confine their attention to weeds growing in the field. Rubber sponges can be cleaned by’ leaving them overnight tin a solution of three-fourths ounce of bicarbon ate of soda in half a pint of warm water; rinse and hang in the air to dry.

Crop Report Below is a brief synopsis of tele graphic reports received at the Head Office of the Bank of Mon treal from its Branches, dealing with crop conditions in ail sections of Canada: Throughout the Dominion crop prospects remain good, with weather that on the whole has continued to be advantageous, though in some districts damage from lack of mois ture is reported. Grasshoppers, rust and hail have taken a certain toll of grain on the Prairies, and in Quebec and Ontario army worms have ap peared, but so far such damage as has occurred has been of a local nature. In thfe Prairite Provinces, while grain crops are somewhat back ward, they promise an abundant yield, although to maintain present prospects good rains over wide areas are required. In Quebec the hay yield is proving satisfactory and all other crops arc doing well. In Ontario the prospective yields of all the mnin crops are above average. In the Maritime Provinces all crops continue in good condition. In Brit ish Columbia hay and grains are light crops owing to dry weather, but tomatoes, hops and fruits give good promise. Very favorable growing conditions continue. Harvesting of fall wheat is general and a satisfactory yield of good quality is expected. Oats and’ barley are nearing maturity with good yields in prospect. Storing of a heavy hay crop nears completion. Recent rains have been beneficial to torn, roots, pastures and small fruits. Tomato plants are in healthy Does YOUR SystemMake Excess Acid?Acid Indigestion, Colds,Headaches, Bilious Attacks,ConstipationOFTEN START THIS WAY Some people are what are known fcsacid-makers.
