Thursday and Friday, Sept 29th and 30th Are This Year’s Dates— Races and Amateur Contest Will Be Features. Action was taken by the Inger soll, North and West Oxford Agri cultural Society at a largely attend ed meeting on Friday night to pro vide an unusually attractive program for the Ingersoll Fair which will be held on Thursday and Friday, Sept 29-30. It was decided to include two harness racing events in the program and to offer purses, which it is be lieved will bring to Ingersoll many fast horses now attracting attention in various parts of Western Ontario. Members of the board were in fluenced in deciding in favor of races by the fact that the local track has been greatly improved, and that it will be put in still better shape before the Fair, and by the present genera! popularity of racing events. In endeavoring to comply with the public demand for harness racing in connection with the Fair, members of the Society believed greater co operation than in the past would be accorded. Other features of the well-bal anced program will be amateur contests in front of the grandstand, which in view of the talent that has been coming to the fore for some time, should provide first-class enter tainment. Much was accomplished during the course of the meeting. On behalf of the ladies’ commit tee, Miss Annie Moon gave a splen did report relative to the revision of the "ladies’ work" section of the list, which was adopted.

VIOLENT STORM CAUSES MUCH DAMAGEJOCALLY Ingersoll was visited by a most violent electrical and wind storm on Wednesday evening, com mencing about 9.15 p.m., and coiw tinuing for about half an hour. A chimney on St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church crashed through the roof and rested on the pulpit and choir loft. A chimney crashed through a skylight of an apartment over the Tribune office, causing much dam age. A falling chimney crashed through a skylight into the apart ment of Mr. and Mrs, Bernie Zur- brigg, striking the dining-room table. Before the fury of the gale, which was accompanied by a down pour of rain and vivid flashes of lightning and claps of thunder, trees were uprooted and snapped off in many sections of the town. On Car roll street, two large trees were up rated, one crashing through the ver andah on the residence of Mr. Jos eph Edmonds. On Wellington street, also Oxford, Thames street south and Charles street west, great dam age was caused by falling trees. The town was plunged into dark- nes for several hours, when hydro wires were carried down by falling trees and limbs, and telephones throughout the town were also put out of commission. The extent of the damage cannot be estimated until d complete check-up has been made. Miscellaneous Shower For Mr. and Mrs. D.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 11 th, 1938 Canadian Corp* Ideal* The Canadian Corp*’ Reunion is over and while the good time, the celebration and the noise-making of Civic Holiday week-end in Toronto are now but boisterous memories, the veterans of the war that closed nearly twenty years ago did more than give vent to ebullient feelings. They sponsored a program of leadership designed to make real contribution to the life of the country for which they fought, and for which so many of their coftirades died, in the grim days of 1914-1918. Describing themselves very properly as “citizens with a personal stake in Canada purchased with the war contribution of the Canadian Corps,” the veterans voiced unanimous determination that Democracy, adapted to the needs of the day," must be perpetu ated at all costa. They expressed the belief that this could be ac complished only if Canada remained within the Brit ish Empire; if her statesmen acted as statesmen rather than politicians; if the people of Canada themselves used “every constitutional means to de feat all movements . . whose objects are to under mine and weaken our Democracy'*; if the danger of sectionalism was realized and combatted; if proper immigration laws .were enacted to insure predomin ance of British stock. The resolutions also stressed the need of social security legislation, of minimum wage regulation, of conservation of natural resources for the benefit of the people, of the democratic prin ciple in education. As the Prime Minister, Mr. Mackenzie King, said, after perusing the resolutions, “they contain a note of fine Canadian sentiment." The Prime Minister also declared that he had “not the slightest hesitation in saying that what you have stated in your resolu tions is very much the mind of the people of this country.” It is fitting that the men who fought to make the woi.Tl safe for Democracy a score of years ago should reaffirm their faith in it today and demand that it still be fostered and defended. In embodying these principles in their resolutions, the veterans of the Canadian Corps have again rendered service. But the service will be of small benefit unless the states men and legislators and, most important of all, the people themselves to whom the veterans’ words are directed, give more than sentimental concurrence to the Democratic ideal. The text mentoned one dan ger when it urged the exercising of individual thought and conviction as a much-needed substitute for political expediency. The same substitute should be urged for the far too general apathy of a large section of the Engish-speaking public of this country in matters of vital concern to themselves. The Consumer’s DollarIt is difficult for most of us to understand why any legislative body should take it upon itself to pass laws whose inevitable effect is to make it more costly for the common people to purchase the necessities of life. Back of such legislation is the politician’s belief that there are votes behind it. The fallacy of that belief was demonstrated when the people of California, at a popular referendum, voted nearly five to one against a law which would have taxed chain stores out of existence. Attacks on chain stores, like other efforts suppos edly for the protection of independent merchants against competition, are arousing consumers to united action all over the nation. The theory that the right of consumers to buy in the cheapest market is para mount is gaining ground. A United States Circuit Court recently declared unconstitutional a Minnesota law which prohibited a store with lower overhead ex pense from passing the benefit of its savings on to consumers. “This type of competition should be encouraged rather than restrained," said the court. And Gov. A Harry Moore of New Jersey, in vetoing a price-fixing bill, said that “the consumer should be allowed to make his dollar go as far as it can." Which sounds like good sense to us. TODAY andTOMORROW by Frank Barker Stockbridge T HE DO CTO R Tell* The Story by W. E. AUGHINBAUGH, M.D. SELF PITYING If you want to know men and women intimately practice medicine for forty or more years. The thing which will surprise you most is the fact that a great number of your patients, even if they call upon you professionally, are more or less suspicious and give ample evidence of the fact that they feel themselves better adapted to prescribe fdr their ailments than you. There is another group who are nothing more or less than hypochondriacs and make it a practice of calling on medical men, always telling tnem that/ none of the other doctors whom they have consulted “knew anything about” their particular case. Per haps the most aggravating lot of patients who actu ally annoy doctors are the “know-it-all” type. This week I had a patient call on me. He com plained of a serious symptom, terrific pains in his heart which prevented him from sleeping or work ing, and had left his last doctor because “th$ man took my money and said there was nothing wrong with me." “Why doctor,” he said indignantly, “he didn’t even give me a drop of medicine.” And that physic-, ian was exactly right in his diagnosis, for there was nothing wrong with the man, but profiting by the patient's remarks, I gave him a mild tonic and he has called me to say he is much better. Fashions are so soft and frilly with pale blue* and pinks popular color* for the first time in years that we must look after our complexions and keep them as pink and white as those of our grandmothers. If your budget permits, treat yourself to a good professional “facial.” If this is out of the question, take time to give yourself one. First a thor ough cleansing with soap and water, then an application of a good clean sing cream (and you’ll be amazed how much grime this cream picks up). After the cleansing cream is wiped away, pat on a liquid skin freshener. Next comes a tissue cream. Rub this cream well into the skin and let it stay on for ten or fifteen minutes. Now wipe this gent ly but thoroughly from the skin and finish up with a mask. Rest for the twenty minutes you are wearing the mask. Clean off the mask and you are ready for your powder and lip stick. • • • Keep your hair soft and gleaming by frequent washing—probably just as many .will be needed as if the weather were cool. And aside from this “keep cool mentally. Don’t hurry and worry and rush. Even the tone of your voice and the cadence of your speech can help to lower the temperature. High, strident voices and the excitement of hurry always give the impression of heat, perfect order and neatness also add a re freshing note of coolness to one’s surroundings.• • • The arrangement of small utensils and supplies in the kitchen will have much to do with the ease and effic iency of your work. Route your working centers and storage places and you will save many steps and minutes. When such staples as salt and sugar are needed often at both the range and pastry table, provide duplicate sets. Kcej> cooking utensils near the range and baking pans and dishes near the refrigerator and pastry table. When you gather the materials for baking a cake put them on a tray as you assemble them and carry'them all to your working cen ter. As each is used return it to the tray and one trip will replace them on their accustomed shelves. HOUSE and HOME- by Mary E. Dagun -> Author of Sister Mary's Kitchen PEOPLE population There are about 130 million people living in the United States today. By 1980 there will be 158 millions. From then on the number of Amer icans will not increase materially, unless there is a new tide of foreign immigration. Our population will re main fixed at about 158 millions. Those are conclusion* reached by the Committee on Population of the National Resource Committee in a recent report to the President They came to that conclusion by studying the statistics of deaths and births over many years past. The time is rapidly approaching when .the num ber of persons who die each year will just about equal the number of babies born, and the population fig ures will thus remain stationary. Already there are about one and a half times as many persons over 20 years old than there are under that age. The average American is growing older. LIFE .... increase One reason for the increase in the average age is that more of the babies born live to grow up. An other reason is that grown-ups live longer than they used to. A few hundred years ago the average "ex pectation of life" for new-born babies was less than twenty years. Now it is nearer forty. And the man or woman who lives to forty, can reasonably expect, barring accidents, to live to sixty or older. Less than 100 years ago men of 36 were regarded as middle-aged; at 50 they were almost senile. Grandmothers of 45 were considered t<> have passed their earthly useful ness. The average age of Americans, babies and graybeards, is now more than thirty years; it was 23 years twenty years ago. By 1980, the committee figures, there will be about exactly the same number of people of every age from one to 60, and a much higher pro portion over 60.

Roadside Weeds Important Factor In Control Campaign Road*, Show Window* of the Farm, Give Bad Impre**ion When Marr ed By Umightly Weed*—Clog Ditche* and Spread Plant Diieaae On Adjoining Farm Land*./ INFORMATION WANTED regarding the descendant* of Modern Highway Building The building of a modern highway is an engineering project today that compares with some of the great Canadian railroad developments of a few years ago. Many highways built only 15 years ago are obso lete today and the factor of time has become an even greater one than formerly in meeting the ad vanced standards of highway services. Ontario’s first “super-highway", the double lane Middle Road from Toronto to Hamilton, was seven years in the making. Because it took a middle course between the heav ily travelled Lakeshore and Dundas routes few motorists were even aware of its development, until its‘incomparable facilities were opened to traffic in 1937.Compare^jp'ith the mass production of autos which provides each year ah increasing highway traffic problem for the Ontario Department of High ways its engineers are hampered by the awkward limitations of time and cost in their efforts to keep pace. Nevertheless this province has far outstrip ped its sister provinces in highway development. Its 75,000 mile system is perhaps singular among any provincial or state projects on this continent be cause of the geographic area, virtually national in its physical extent and diversity. Despite the im mensity of the system, it boasts today existing high way facilities as modern as any in the world and a programme already launched, which is to extend this type of advanced highway from Quebec to Michigan. The new method of building highways is the hard way but it is the means of permanency, greater safety and facility. It is a costlier method of course, but it means greater economies for motorists. In one project alone now under development, the great North Road which will stretch Northward from Toronto to Timmins 500 miles, motorists will travel 75 miles less than over existing routes. This great road is becoming a model of the new engineering standards, stretching out-high-graded in railway fash ion, levelled for safety, and straightaway for travel ling facility and cbmfdrt. OWN DIAGNOSTICIANS A lesser light in the literary world, author of several novels, which have had. small sales, keeps photo graphic copies of every prescription he has had for,nearl/ thirty years. Recently he sent for me and egotistically remarked, showing me a photograph of a predbription I had given him ten years ago for a much used tonic, and another copy of one I gave him the day before. “You see, Doc,” he blurted, “I’m onto you physicians, and know I’m getting worse." “Why",' I asked, rather surprised. “Well, this prescription written in 1926 called for only six ounces, while the one you gave me yesterday orders half a pint.” When I explained that six ounces, apothecary weight was also half a pint, according to the same system^ he still believed I was not telling the truth, and I know he is going to consult the corner druggist. Modern Convenience* Have Ancient History Glassware It has been stated that in-the Vatican Studios in Rome, where glass mosaics are made, as many as fifty thousand tones in glass are available. An enormous variety of shade.and intensity of color is ob tainable by variations in the materials use’d. The final color is affected, not only by the coloring agent used, but also by the type of glass and by the treat ment to which it is subjected. Reheating of the glass after removal from the melting furnace is often essential.Red glass (was originally produced by the use of copper /Compounds. The glass when first removed from the furnace is amber and develops a red color upon reheating. When gold compound* and selenium are used,, they act in a similar manner. Selenium red gtaas has the advantage that the color remains uni form with varying thickness of the, glass and the amount of light transmitted is high. Consequently selenium glasses are useful for traffic lights. / Amber glass is produced by the use of charcoal, oauallp with sulphur or sulphur compounds. Yellows are made with various-foundation glass mixtures by the use of silver or uranium compounds;,the silver compounds giving a true canary yeDow and the ur^n- tam salts a slight greenish tinge.

Allison and Beer threshed on the farm of Mr. Wm. Uglow, on the 1st concession of Dorchester. A special meeting of the United Board of High and Public School Trustees was held last night,, all the members being present except Messrs. Watterworth and Flewelling. Mr. A. iM. Morris, B.A., was appoint- ted Head Master of the High School at salary of $800. Miss L. Gardiner was appointed in room of Miss Cornell at salary of $275, and Miss C. Hudson of Salford, in place of Miss Turner at salary of $250. The Fire, Water and Gas Commitbee of the council, recommended thati rubber hose, amounting to >500, be purchased from the Gutta Percha Co., of New York and the offer of $22.00 per year per light from the Ingersoll Gas Light Co., for street lights be accepted. The present-day idea of a bath room, that affords real comfort, or even a touch of luxury, is not new; it is at least 5,000 years old, says the Canadian Institute of Plumbing and Heating. Yet even though Canada and the United States boast many, more bathrooms per unit of popu lation than other parts of the world, there are still many homes in cities as well as in the country without other bathing facilities than a wash tub in shed or basement. » Archaeologists have discovered the existence of tiled bathrooms in pal aces of the ancient Mesopotamian civilizations and even the idea o?*a bath to,every bedroom has been revealed in certain Egyptian excav ations. The elaborate and luxurious bathing facilities developed by the Romans, centuries later, are well re membered as one of .the marks of the heights attained by the civiliza tion which was swallowed in the “Dark Ages” of medieval history. The very word plumbing derives from the Latin word for lead, the principal piping material used in the installations of the times. Along with arts and other scien ces, the science of sanitation was lost in the Dark Ages and was left considerably behind when the Ren aissance brought some light back to a semi-barbarous Europe. The lack of even* simple habits of private and public cleanliness are significant in the plagues and diseases which rav aged the old world with toll of countless millions of people. In spite of religious fervour and salu tary laws of cleanliness contained in the Old Testament were so long overlooked that it was only compar atively recently that John Wesley felt constrained to proclaim that “cleanliness is next to godliness." It is really only in the past cen tury*—and principally the latter half of it—that sanitary engineerng has been recognized as one of the vital pillars of civilization, says the Insti tute, adding that no matter where or at what period, one studies the de velopment of public hea’th, one finds the sanitary engineer and his team mate, the plumbes, in the forefront of progress. Through the installa tion of modern municipal as well as domestic water and sewage systems, communities have been able greatly to reduce sickness and. mortality rates, Tho gradual general de crease in the infant mortality rate and the reduction of tuberculosis cases and death rates are due, in a certain degree at least, to better housing conditions in which modern plumbing plays a large part. CHANGES .... mode* The shift in the balance between old and young people will result in many changes of ways of living and looking at life. Two-thirds and more of the people living at any one time will have passed the adolescent age and will have mature tastes and habits and a more mature outlook on the world around them. Those considerations will affect business and industry. There ■will be a decline in the baby-carriage trade, for example, and an increasing de mand for easy chairs. There will be fewer children in the schools but a larger proportion of them will probably go to high schools and col leges. This will reduce the number of teachers, but that should be com pensated /for by better qualified teachers. On the whole, I imagine the American people of 1980 wul not only be older but better educated and wiser. WORKERS . . training With the continual lengthening of the average age of all the people, there is bound to come a higher percentage of employment of older workers. There won’t be enough young people to do all the work re quired to supply the needs of the whole population. Along with the greater opportunity for continued earnings in advancing years there is certain to be more em phasis upon old age pensions in one form or another. The committee anticipates an increase of 69 per cent in the employment of persons between 45 and 64. At the same time, greater atten tion can be given to the development of skills among the young, so that their opportunity for well-paid em ployment will be broadened. The period of vocational education may be much longer. To-duy few qualify to practice medicine under 30; few beceme masters of radio and airplane engineering much* younger. With the increasing complexity of industry, more young folk will need longer training.• • • FORECAST .... progrea* I have greater confidence ^in science, technology and education for the building of the . brave new world of 1980 than I have in any of the Utopian schemes of politi cians. As I forecast it, with the statistics of the Committee on Popu lation before me, it will be primar ily an urban world. Many will live in the country because they like the out-of-doors, and the suburban areas of the cities will be immensely expanded by safer highways, faster .airs, even family airplane*. But ths world’s work will mostly be done in Farmers and city dwellers alike, will agree that country roads are the show windows of Ontario farms and are largely responsible for adver tising products of the soil- If roads are marred by an unsightly growth of weeds, tourists get a bad impres- son and urban residents lose ‘faith in rural Ontario as a producer of ag ricultural products second to none in the world. There are seven good reasons why roadside weeds should be wiped out of existence. They (1) infest ad joining farm lands; (2) spread plant diseases; (3) are dangerous to traffic; (4) will gather and hold snow; (5) clog ditches on roadsides and thus hinder the flow of water and proper drainage of the road bed; (6) are dangerous from a fire stand point; (7) are unsightly to resi dents and tourists alike. The Weed Control Act of Ontario states roadside weeds must be des troyed before seeds mature. The Municipal Council, through its road authority is responsible for seeing that this work is dene. Proper grad ing of roadside and removal of stones, stumps and brush will enable the road authority to do this" work quickly and efficiently. A thick seed ing of a good grass mixture will make a thick sod which prevents weeds from obtaining a foothold. Chemical weed killers have proved hibited at, or attended theCanadian National Exhibition during it* early year*. FOUNDERS' YEARThis year marks tie DiamondJubilee of the Exhibition, and assuch it has been set aside as"Founders* Year” in honour ofthose men and women who supported the Exhibition duringthose early years by their organizing ability, their exhibits or theirattendance.

Taking a leaf from the records or the Ontario Department of High ways, the government of the Slate of Michigan, has adopted reflector buttons for the 70-mile streten of concrete highway between Detroit and Lansing, the State capital. Similar to those installed along part of the new Middle Road be tween Toronto and Hamilton, the reflectors consist of white crystal “eyes” set in the top of metal posts about three feet high. The posts are placed at regular intervals along the shoulder of the road at curves or other danger points. As a car approaches the reflectors, its head lights are “picked up” by the reflectors at a distance of more than half a mile, and the brightly gleaming eyes outline the course of the highway ahead without in any way blinding the driver or interfer ing with his vision. Cars moving in either direction get the benefit of this latest driving aid on their own side of the road and, as a result of the drivers being better able to gauge the proper distance from the shoulder of the road, the danger of side swiping and cijlisions on curves is drastically reduced. While the Ontario Department of Highways has installed these reflectors over only a short distance of the Middle Road, the Michigan authorities have expen- ‘ ded $23,000 on the $6,900 reflector posts necessary for complete install ation between Detroit and Lansing. THE EARLY RISER SELS THE BIRD Ouns is just an ordinary watch, but the other morning'll rendered us an unusual service; not by going, but by stopping. On waking, we found that it had stopped at about midnight —that meant that we were not sure of the time, so in order that we might not be late for breakfast, we decided to rise for the day. As a matter of fact on going downstairs we found that we had risen an hour earlier ■ than usual, which meant a nice long morning ahead of us. And such a morning as it was! As only a Canadian summer morning can be when at its best, with the blue of the skies, the green of the trees and grass combining with the colors of the flowers to make a per fect picture under the rising sun. people might enjoy it, but of all the creatures the birds seemed to respond to it most. And there was no re straint about their appreciation, as they darted here and there, busy as could be, but not too busy to sing while they worked. Then into their ranks came a stranger; one that was quite hew to us. He flew to a Rowan tree and seemed to enjoy the fruit. But he was not allowed to remain there long, for the other birds realizing that he was different, were excited over his presence. What coulc^he be? He was not like any bird'that we had seen before, with the erect poise of a robin, but a coat of a dusty shade. Then we realized that we were looking at that great rarity, an Al bino Robin. Poor fellow, we hope that he is not leading the life of a social out cast, for it is he and his kind who add variety to life, and in his own way he is just as interesting, as those who sport a black jacket and a red waistcoat, watch that stops, even up as usual, it can be while. And as for a when wound very worth- PLEASURE Jiggs—“Many a man has a talent for conversation which he has had no opportunity of turning to ac count!” Jinks—“Um—er—yes; I am mar ried myself.” AN EASILY GAINED There are few pleasures that are so easily obtained as that of having the-birds of the air (not in cages), •for company.

In addition to the novelty of his advertis ing, he kept persistently at it: He said once: "Continuous advertising, like continuous work, is most effect ive. If there is any enter prise irr the world that a quitter should leave alone, it b ad-~ vertiring. Advertising does not ieric, it pulls. It begins very gently at first but the pull is steady. It increases day by day, year after year, until it exerts an irresistible power. To discontinue your advertising is the same as taking down your sign. If you want to do buri nep you must let the public know it. I would « ®°on think of doing business without clerks as without adrertiring.” Pine trees develop a long tap root. This helps to anchor them as well as assist them in reaching deep into tbe ground for moisture. This is also the reason pine trees grow best in a location having good drainage. Only a few varieties of pines will grow well in wet soil.When pines are grown in a hedge row or when an especially com? pact growth is desired, they should be disbudded as shown in the Gar den-Graph. Removing the central or terminal bud causes the side buds to spread apart and form a much -more dense growth. Cutting back the growth of the previous year to a strong bud or branchlet means a much thicker growth will follow on each^part of the tree thus treated. Spring flowering bulbs which are to be planted this fall should be selected and ordered now while the. impressions, of last spring's display are fresh in mind, and the dealers’ stocks complete, especially it tlw newer and better sorts are desired. it ft ft The tulip bulbs which have beenstored away should be examined and cleaned now so as to provide in formation about how many will be u.able this tall. .Only sound, bright,full-sized bulbs are worth saving «ind these should be kept in a’warm, dry place in well-ventilated con tainers.

These varieties, orig inated at the Horticultural Experi ment Station, Vineland, have largely replaced the Crawford in the affect ion of Ontario housewives. They will be followed by the Elberta two weeks later. The entire crop will be ten days earlier than Ia?t year, growers agree. They point out that Rochester, a good canning peach, but not quite so free at the pit as the “V” peaches, was. first picked last year, August 19th and was ready by the 10th this year. In discussing crop prospects, grow ers stated that owing to increased production as a result of more trees coming into bearing for the first time this year, “V” peaches will show an increase of 15 per cent over 1937. Elbertns are down 10 to 15 per cent which will make the can ning crop just about equal to total for 1937 with quality better than last year. Prices will be just as reason able, growers predict. This means that housewives will be able to have all their peaches can ned before the Canadian National Exhibition opens August 26th. It also means fresh luscious peaches for Toronto tables every day of the exhibition, a hot weather breaklast, luncheon and dinner offering that everyone enjoyes. Here’s a good healthy slogan for every adult and child in Ontario— “A happy month is within your reach, Just start each day with an On tario peach.” Information From Canada D. H. Malcolm, Senior Agricultur al Officer, Department of Agricul ture, Tasmania, who has been on a visit to Canada to obtain general in formation on the growing of tobacco I in Canada, spent two days at the To bacco Division, Central Experimental Fann, Ottawa, and also visited the Southwestern Ontario districts, in cluding the Harrow and Delhi Sta tions, and the Quebec tobacco dis tricts, including L’Assomption and Farnham Stations. Canadian live cattle exported to the British market in 1938 up to July 21 numbered 23,495, compared wth 4,017 during the corresponding period of 1937.

Little Girl—“What happens to Santa jClaus after he hands out all of the presents, Si*?” Big Sister—“He’s left holding the bag!” In Saturday’s doUbleheader, the last of the regular schedule of the Intercounty intermediate “B” group Ingersoll defeated Aylmer by a score of 14 to 7 and lost to Straffordville 1937 provincial “C” champions, 4 to 1. In dividing the twin bill, the locals chalked up. their third consecu tive win for the week having prev- iously disposed of Simcoe and Wood- stock. The locals took the lead in the game with Aylmer in the first innings and were never headed. Vic Byers went the route for Ingersoll, allow ing only nine hits, while the offer ings of Coleman and Dougherty were rapped for 14 safeties. Score by innings: Aylmer 100 310 020—7 9 6 Ingersoll .. 320 043 20x—14 14 2 Coleman, Dougherty and Miller; Vic Buyers and Johnston. Straffordville had fewer but more timely hits and coupled with errors, they took the lead with three runs in the third. An interesting pitchers' battle took place between the veter an Bill Partington, whose hurling carried Straffordville to the Ontario “C” championship last year, and Pete Williams, with the local twirler turning in the best effort. He allowed only five hits as compared with nine eff Partington’s offerings. Strafford ville, however, played errorless ball, while the locals had five miscues. Beemer, Thompson and Johnston caught in this game. Score by innings: Straffordville— 003 000 010—1 5 0 Ingersoll .. 000 0011'000—1 9 5 Partington and Walsh; Williams and Beemer, Thompson, Johnston.

But there is a very simple method by which better newspapers can be produced and that is for those who subscribe to them to take an individual interest in seeing that they get more local and personal news. Not that the subscriber is expected to be come a reporter when he becomes a subscriber, but be cause the newspaper stands as the exponent of all that is good for the community.and because civic pride should, therefore, lead to encouragement of such an institution. If the subscriber has visitors, if he has been op a visit or if he or she is going on one, the neighbors are sure zto be interested in knowing about it. Tell them through the columns of the Ingersoll Tribune. Every little item of a local or personal nature helps just that much to make a still better newspaper and getting it to the editor requires. very little exertion on the part of anyone. That is how the subscriber can help make The Tribune more interesting, and subscribers arc invited to start doing so at once. News and Information Field Crop Report Bruce County reports its wheat sample generally poor to fair with an occasional field yielding well with good quality. In Dufferin the crop is badly affected with rust and in Grey a similar condition has made the yield disappointing. Barley and oats prospects in that district are exceptionally good. Rust also did much damage in Wellington County, likewise in North Simcoe. in the latter county the crop of oats prom ised to be the best in five years, but a general outbreak of smut and army worn inroads have reduced prospects to average. Wheat is run ning up to 40 bushels per acre in Brant, depending on the winter killing and rust. Haldimand also has a wheat crop running 40 bushels to the acre or better. The market for new grain in Lambton is very low, prices quoted being: New wheat 64c; barley 42c and oats 32c. Field corn for silage purposes is looking splen did in Lincoln and has made tre mendous growth recently. Some crops in Middlesex have been badly lodged by storms, but early thresh ing returns of wheat and barley indi cate good yields of satisfactory qua1- ity. Rust has damaged wheat and oats in Oxford county. Fruit Crop Report Total cherry production this seas on is estimated at 123,600 bushels as compared with 101,900 in 1937. A 3% decline in production of pears is indicated, with conditions so far very favorable for good sizing and clean fruit production. Tree and fruit development of peaches is ex cellent, with minimum of fungus or insect injury’ apparent. While some early varieties have shown split-pits, the condition is not expected to be more serious than usual. The prelim inary forecast of yield places the crop at 515,200 bushels, as compar ed with 525,700 bushels last year. While the set of plums is very irre gular the existing crop is now devel oping well, with only normal drop having taken place. Pests are well under control. Production is expect ed to be about the same as a year ago. Condition of grapes is excell ent for good development of berries and vine growth, with hopper and other pests well controlled. Summer Care For Brood Sow* An abundance of good pasture during the summer greatly reduces the cost of maintaining brood sows. Crops such as rape or clover supply needed minerals vitamins and other nutrients. The exercise obtained in grazing also contributes in no small measure to the general health of the breeding stock, 'with consequent beneficial results at fairowing time. Sows raising only one litter per year need but little grain after the pigs are weaned, if good pastures are provided. While it is a mistake to allow &>ws to become too fat, it u equally unwise to allow them to become too thin. Enough grain should be given to keep the sows in thrifty condition. In any event they should get some grain such as a mixture of ground oats, ground barley and midd lings, supplemented with skim-milk or fish meal, for two or three weeks before breeding time in the fall. Sows raising two litters per year naturally require more feed than those raising only one, but if_ earlyspring and fall litters can be^accom- modated, the average cost of rearing pigs to weaning age, will be lower if two litters per year are raised. Market hogs make faster gains when confined to a pen, but sow pigs which are to be reserved for breeding, should be given good pas ture to ensure good vigorous breed ers. They should ba fed liberally to ensure satisfactory growth when ■.they are on pasture, but if their yard is small and the gilts get only a limited amount of exercise^ heavy feeding should be avoided. Bladder Campion Bladder Campion is considered one of the most serious weed pests in Ontario by the Crop, Seeds and Weeds Branch of the Ontario De partment of Agriculture. It is difficult to kill owing to its Machine Company Won Game From Morrow’* The Ingersoll Machine Company scored a big upset on Monday even ing at the Memorial Park, when they defeated the Morrow’s team by a score of 15-14 in a very close game. Jack Empey went the route for the Machinists while Harrison and Phil lips did the pitching for the losers. There were several extra base hits during the game which all figured in the scoring. Batteries—Machine, Empey and Priddle; Morrow’s, Harrison, Phillips and Noe. deep fleshy rootstalks and the num bers of stems growing from one crown. The crown is often down six to twelve inches in the soil and this explains the difficulty in cutting it eff with the plow anti the need of deep plowing followed by a stiff toothed cultivator with wide shares which overlap. Roots and root stalks brought to the surface will not sur vive but any portion left in the soil with a bud attached, will produce a new plant. Thorough cultivation will eradicate Bladder Campion in culti vated areas. Chemical weed killers is the only practical solution if the weed is prevalent and cultivation impossible. The first plant found on your property is a danger signal, says the Department. Eradicate it and save trouble later. The Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch, Ont. Dept, of Agri culture, Toronto, will gladly forward you free of charge a pamphlet on how to get rid of this dangerous pest. Write for it immediately. Bladder Campion is sometimes misnamed “White Cockle” or “Catch fly”. Campion, however, can be eas ily identified by its freely branching stems, smooth leaves in pairs which meet around the stem, its white flow ers found in loose clusters often drooping and its inflated bell-shaped calyx or jpod. It is from this the plant some times gets the name of Bladder Weed or Cow Bell. It is adapted to high land and soon becomes estab lished if neglected. Get after it now, is the best ad vice of the Ontario Department of Agriculture. To Visit Plowing Match An official visit by His Excellency, Lord Tweedsmuir, Governor-Gener al of Canada, to the International Plowing Match at Minesing, near Barrie, Ont., on Thursday, October 13th, is announced by J. A. Carroll, Manager, of this annual agricultural event, the greatest plowing match not only in the British Empire, but in the entire world. Last year the attendance was over 100,000 at the four-day event and this record, it is expected, will be shattered this year. The dates are October 11th to 14th inclusive. “There is no doubt,” states Mr. Carroll, “that the invitation of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association was accepted by His Excellency because of his genuine interest in all phases of agriculture and particularly good plowing and fine horses. Scotland, the birthplace of Lord Tweedsmuir, is rich in plowing lore, and her sons, well-skilled in the art, have "transplanted a du ire for good cultivation in every part of the British Empire, particularly Can ada, where for over 100 years plow ing matches have been held. “While there may be 70 or more modern and powerful tractors in op eration on a busy day, double that number, about 140 competitors, will use strong reliable and well-groomed horses, the cream ftf the plowing teams in Canada. ‘ A He rse Show’ is a special feature of the Match” states Mr. CarrolL SCOTTS SCRAP BOOK By R.J.SCOTT.

He flagged a young Mexican,gave him a dollar and told him to deliver the note to Quinn. Then Rosy ducked back into thealley and hea'ded for the livery stable.The office of the livery stable was lighted and Rosy strolled in. An oldman was sitting at a desk, poringover a feed catalog. Rosy sized him up in a glance. The man had goodeyes, a kind, homely face,-and was slow in movement as he looked upat Rosy while still leafing the pages. • “Oh," Rosy said. “The otherfeller ain’t here?”“The niuhj man? Louie?

Rosy sat erect with a lunge. Hehad been asleep and it-was already daylight Was he tod* late? No,there was the sheriff’s voice below,and Winters' genial laugh. He found a crack in the boards andcould look down into the corral. They were saddling up. "You like a early stari don't you?" the sheriff drawled amiably."Sure. I'm up every morning be fore the rest of them are,” Winterssaid.Rosy saw Winters let down the corral gate, and both men led theirhorses through. “Say.” the sheriff said. “1 mightride down with you at that It's early yet”‘T’ve got to ride over and tellthose nesters about the lake,” Win ters said. “Maybe it’ll crowd you."“Yeah. Guess I better not at that It’ll put me in town pretty late.Well, so long."Both men mounted, the sheriff heading up the long slope to thenotch, Winters to the south toward Soledad.Winters had done a smooth jobof getting the sheriff out of the way. Rosy thought bitterly. With a sinking heart, Rosy admitted that it looked as if Winters was expectingCrowell, and had gone down to meet him.He climbed down into a stall andHe built a cigarette to steady his nerves before he saw Mary. Whatsat on a feedbox. was he going to tell her?Finally, he hitched up his belt and walked toward the house.Inside; Mary looked up from the table. She had been sitting staringout the window."Hullo. Rosy.” She forced a weak smile. “Where's Dave?”“He stayed in town. He had somebusiness,""I didn't hear you come in." "I’m part Injun," Rosy grinned."Reckon yo6 got any cold hot-cakes I can have?" He cursed himself for not brushing the hay off hisclothes better. “Sure.

Are you afraid?! can’t bear to heat the truth?"“What did Hank telL-you?" Rosyasked. “Nothing! Except that the lake had been blown out on top of Hammond’s mine, and both tt and ourspread are ruined.” Rosy shook his head slowly, preparing his lie. “It’s no wonder Hank didn’t tell you any more. Hecouldn't. None of us can. We don't know who did it But one thingwe’re sure of—Hammond didn’t" “Where can I hide? And you betterget these dishes cleared away.’’Mary ran to the front room. Rosyfollowing her. He picked the lowdavenport, over which a huge Navajo rug was thrown, for his hiding place. Mary held it up while hecrawled under. As he was on hisknees he looked up at her. “Rcmem- ber. Don't sign anything. And believe me. I’m trying to help you." He heard the two men enter thekitchen, the sound of voices, then Mary saying distinctly: "Come intothe front room, Mr. Crowell."Rosy heard them enter the room and take chairs around the fireplace,which was cold now. Crowell of fered Winters a cigar, which he accepted with thanks, and lighted.Winters spoke now, his voice thick with cigar smoke. "I met Mr.Crowell on the way to Soledad, dar ling. andjte asked me to come backwith him. I think he’s going to giveus some money, so listen carefully.” "Mrs. Winters," Crowell began,and Rosy noticed his voice was con fident and smooth, “perhaps youdidn't remember my name. I’m theCrowell that’s written you about selling the ranch."“But I tfiought—I—I thought those letters were written by Ham*mond. and just signed 'Crowell'.” “Hammond?" Crowell askedvaguely. . “Yes. He owns the Draw Threemine in Single Shot. Frankly, I was sure it was Hammond because noone ever came to inquire in person.”Crowell laughed genially. “I was merely feeling you out because thisranching, syndicate I work for wasn't quite sure it wanted the 'property.We arc now, however."“I’m sorry,” Mary said. ”1 don’twant to sell.”“That's strange,” Crowell said. “When I talked with your brotherlast night, he was sure that you'dwant to sell, too.” / "Too?"
