At a very largely attended meet­ ing of the Big Eight Society, held in the 1. O. O. F. Hall on Wednesday evening last, Arthur R. Ford, Man­ aging Editor of the London Free Press, under the heading, "This Troubled World,” dealt with the highlights of the N.R-A. of the United States, Fascism in Europe, Bolshevism in Russia and the Japan­ ese situation. S. A. Gibson, president of the Big Eight, was chairman of the meeting and the speaker was introduced by Hia Worship, Mayor J .M. Wilson, who pointed out that Mr. Ford who was prominent in newspaper circles throughout Canada, also served in many lines of activities and held many important public offices among the most important of which was past president of the London Can­ adian club; past (president of the London Kiwanis club; a trustee of Kiwanis International; a director of many was so crushed and rubbed In the mud that it would be impossible to come back and again menace their land. “But I beieve that if the states­ men of that time had had the fore­ sight to look back to 1815 when the European war had been fought and when that great soldier and states­ man Wellington had been in the front, they.would have seen that this great man knew how to deal with the situation and they could have profited by hia example.He knew that a conquered foj could not be crushed and the results be good. He knew that a great people could not be taken and reduced in no time to a position of inferiority. The result of such an effort that .was made in 1918 was that Germany made no honest effort to live ip to the terms of the treaty, because she resented it. The collapse in Ger­ many which followed the war was ten times worse than ours was. "And this called for and allowed the growth of a mon of the type of Hitler, who it has been said by people of Germany would not have been noticed in ordinary times and under ordinary conditions.is when Bcachville, Mrs.W. E. Winlaw, Mrs. C. *R. Patience; West Oxford, Miss M. Hislop.Mr. Brickenden, the speaker for the occasion, was introduced by Dr. J. M. Rogers. He dealt with political questions of the day and compared the achievements of both Liberal and Conservative parties in the Federal and Provincial Governments over a period of years.Following the address a vote of thanks was moved, by Mrs. William Kirwin and seconded by Mrs. F. MacPherson. The Twentieth Cen­ tury Club suggested a joint meeting of the Twentieth Century Clubs and the Women’s Liberal Association. The proposal was accepted with the understanding that the next meeting of the organizations will be held jointly. An outstanding guest speaker will be brought here for the occasion and a dance held at the conclusion of the meeting. Warmly complimenting the Wom­ en's Association upon the large number attending the meeting, George Sutherland, president of the Men’s Liberal Association pointed also to the importance of continuing the good work in the Liberal cause at the hands of all organizations. J. V. Buchanan and J. A .Turner -spoke briefly, congratulating the ladies on the fine work they are onto in April and it was suggested that other members who wished to attend, would receive a warm wel­ come and would find the Sessions in­ teresting and instructive. Mrs. T. N. Dunn the treasurer, re­ported on the membership and fin­ ance, and Miss Jean Coventry, the corresponding secretary, presented her report. Miss Seldon thanked her executive and all the members for their support and co-operation during the past year. Rev. Geo. W. Tebbs Gave Humorous Lecture <k>ing in the interests of the Liberal J irty locally. 4 Vocal solos by Mrs. H. A. Cope­ land, eister of Premier Hepburn, with Maty Crowley as accompanist, and vocal numbers by the Collegiate quartette, comp0®^ of Sill Rogers, Alex. Pearson, Howard Corr and Jack Mayberry, witih Jack Morgan nt ■the piano, were greatly enjoyed. Tea and sandwiches were 'served X at the close of the meeting, and pro­ vided an enjoyable social period. This was in charge of Mns. Hutt and her committee. Richard Seldon gave piano solos, delightful Irish airs, dur­ ing the social hour.A splendid tribute was paid by Mr. Brickenden, prior to opening hia address proper, to the memory of the late Mrs- W. C. Kennedy of Windsor, to whom he referred as an rf*tstanding Canadian citizen and a Sfs-n leader of women. Especially did he refer to hw fine work in the Liberal cause, but in general to her fine work in every cause that was for the betterment of conditions in gen- the Canadian press;member of PUBLIC UTILITIES COM.HEAR REPORT OF LIGHTING SCHOOL The concert and humorous lecture sponsored by Ingersoll Masonic lod­ ges, in the Masonic Hull, on Friday night, was enjoyed by a large audi­ ence. The hall was well filled and the gathering manifested apprecia­ tion from the opening to the close of a delightfully well balanced pro­ gram. The chairman for the evening was Thomas E. Jackson, Immediate Past Master of King Hiram Lodge.' The epesker, Rev. Geo. W. Tebbs of Bur­ lington, "Old Man Sunshine” of C.K.O.C, radio fame, was ably Intro­ duced by F. G, Rich. The first part of the program consisted of a num­ ber of violin solos by Keith Geddie, and piano selections by Carl Ed­ monds, Ingersoll; comic songs by Archie McCullough, London, ana solos by Mrs. Wes. Rowley, I/>ndon, a<l of which were greatly enjoyed. The address by Rev. Geo. W. Tebbs bristled with humor. He fair­ly convulsed the audiense with mer­ riment for more than one hour. Rav, Mr. Tebbs has been heard in Inger­ soll on former occasions and only re­ cently at a meeting of the Kiwanis Club and those ,who again heard his address were not in the least disap­ pointed. The appreciation of the lodges and the gathering of those contributing to the program was expressed by J. Ferris David. The accompanist for the evening was Roes B. Bigham. the board of governors of the Uni­ versity of Western Ontario, and a director of the Queen Alexandra Sanatorium. "I believe we are safe in saying that the world is passing through the greatest depression in its his­ tory,” said Mr. Ford in opening his address. “The old economic laws are being upset, and new social leg­ islation has begun. The old laws are being challenged today and I believe the four major economic movements are those I have already mentioned. "There has been really nothing more great than the rapid rise in the United States in the past 150 years. From a new country with only a fringe of population, civilization and industrialism has developed apace. The country is now one of skyscrapers, one of great aerial de­ velopments and achievements and its industrial program is remarkable- We know that when the ,war of 1914- 18 was over the United States was sitting on top of the world and had the large part of that world’s wealth. London, England, had formerly been the money centre for the world, but this has been usurped by the United States. There was a very high standard of living in the country, and it was fondly believed that there would be no more cycles of depress­ ion Wo know then that thia grand house of cards collapsed in 1929 and there was unemployment, stock mar­ ket panic, bank failure—millions out of work, an economic and financialcollapsc.This was the situation when three years ago Roosevelt took hold of the situation and put into effect the N.R.A. "From the first I doubted the wi’- dom of the N.R.A.”, said the speaker, "and my doubts have been growing. I believe that the depression, being world wide, can only be cured by world co-operation. We know that the United States refused to enter the League of Nationss; we know that she built up around her a high tariff wall and so shut out the for­ eign trade. There are of course, some very fine things about the N.R. A., such as the abolition of child labor that still existed in some of the southern states, but built as it was on national isolation, it could not be a success, I believe too that some- there is unrest and unemployment and such situations that the big mouth is listened to. So we see thafl/the old spirit of German thrift and industry was gone and the reck­ less element entered in. "I do not believe ' that there is danger of an immediate war in Europe over the present situation,” continued the speaker, “for Ger­ many has got a ring of enemies around her, but the atmosphere of suspicion and hate has been created and there is the danger of rearma­ ments which may lead to the situa­tion we faced in 1914. In other words, we are back again to where we were in 1912 and it is going to take all the statesmanship of the European Countries to kep the situ­ ation from becoming tense. "Coming to our last great move­ ment, I do not believe we in the western world quite realize what is going on and has been going cn in Japan. Industrially, Japan has jxade great strides in the past few years and while the trade of the world has been decreasing her trade has been growing. She has driven down the Lancashire cotton manu­ facturers, she is putting cheap auto­ mobiles in Australia, cheap bicycles all over the continent, underselling the rest of the world and becoming an industrial menace to the rest of the world. Also she is of a militar­istic and beligerent attitude and may be altogether I believe a worse men­ace to the world than Germany has ever been. She is driving Europe out of Asia and the United States out of South America. “Having considered those four great factors of the background of this troubled world, what of the fu­ ture,” asked the speaker in closing. "It would be most daring of anyone to make predictions in the world to­ day even regarding possibly the day after tomorrow, but being based on past historical facts, I believe that we are coming out into a better sit­ uation than ever before. "After the Eropean ware of 100 years ago, (possibly only skirmishes as compared to the last one, yet great for the times), there followed a period of inflation and then finan­ cial collapse m Great Britain and Europe. England was perhaps Members of the Ingersoll Public Utilities Commission were all present for the regular meeting last week ' which was presided over by Chair­man F. C. Elliott, when reports were given on the school of better lighting hold in Toronto recently.Following the passing of a number of accounts for payment in both light and water departments, there was considerable discussion and ex­ planations regarding the thirteenth power bill. The amount of the above bill this year was $2,050, A report on the recently held lighting echool at Toronto was given by Superintendent Hall and Chair­ man Elliott. The benefits derived by both of these men were said to be good. Mr. Hall had been dele­ gated to attend by the commission, while Mr. Elliott had been in the city on other business and had attended a number of the lectures. There were 97 municipalities represented at the school, which was 1 the 55th and largest of its kind that has been held. Those who attended were manufac­ turers, jobbers, merchants, students and members .of electrical depart­ ments. The subjects discussed in­ cluded proper lights,Jn the home, the lamps, reflectors, etc., all illustrated by charts and on the screen. In order to put the school over suc­cessfully, there were four tons of equipment used for illustration pur­ poses. • Tests were given covering periods for eye-strain in the school. De­ fective lighting was first tested by a certain number of those in attend­ ance in a room, followed by the same period with perfect lighting, and it was proved that 20 per cent, more efficient papers on examina­ tions were given by those in the perfectly-lighted room. It was also proved that the energy of the human is decreased under jpaor lighting conditions as against a &vell-Iighted room. Of the number Jwho took this test at the school, there were 75 per cent of them that by pressing a button showed greater energy at the reading under good lighting. The matter of wiring was also very interesting. The explan­ ation regarding leaks and proper weight of wires was fully discussed. It was explained by Mr, Elliott that Mr. Hall was now qualified to give full information to any who were desirous of improving their lighting condition in the town equally as well as would an architect or electrical ex­ pert from Toronto, having had the same training in this school. The arrearages are continuing to show a better standing with $153 less owing the commission this month as against tho same date last month. There was a great deal of discus­ sion by all the members of the com­mission and explanations by Super­ intendent Hall regarding the issuing of debentures to cover the cost of completing the water-works system in Ingersoll. It was finally con­ cluded by a resolution covering the situation. z T. N. Dunn Has Been j Officially Notified f of J. P. Appointment T. N. Dunn is this week in re­ ceipt of papers signed by Hon. H. C. Nixon, Provincial Secretary and Dr. H. A. Bruce, Lieutenant Governor of Ontario, making his official appoint­ ment as Justice of the Peace. Mr. Dunn was recommended for the ap­ pointment by the local Liberal pat­ ronage committee and he was noti­ fied some time ago that he had been appointed but the official document did not come to him until this week. It dates from March 1st, 1935, and declares Thomas Nairn Dunn, of the Town of Ingersoll, in the County of Oxford, appointed a Justice of the Peace, in and for the County at Oxford. W. C. T. U. Met At Mn. H. I. Stewart's The March meeting of the W. C. T. U., was held at the home of Mrs. H. I. Stewart, King street west, on Tuesday afternoon with a fair at­ tendance. The singing of “What a Friend we have in Jesus," opened the meeting. This ,was followed by prayer by Mrs. Thomas Warden and the Bible lesson read by Mrs. J. Row­land from the 12th chapter of Luke, dwelling particularly on the 37th verse.The hymn, "When HeCometh,” was then sung and Mra.

Those re­ sponsible for that t treaty met there in a spirit of hate, for they felt that Germany had been ; responsible for the war and as such sho must pay. The result WM that fantastical in­ demnities were placed on Germany and It was gradually realized that these were impossible to collect. "There was justification for the feeling on the part of tho French for they had lived under the shadow of Germany and war for the past 60 years,” said the speaker. "They wan­ ted their national security and they wanted to make certain that Ger- never nearer to a revolution than she was after this kind of a period. But after this 100 years ago, came a gen­eral advance in social legislation and from that was worked cut the situation which blossomed into the great Victorian era, the greatest for advancement that the world hnd ever known.

VEALE Publisher Phone*—Tribune Office 11 Residence 442 ATHURSDAY, MAR. 28, 1935The Public Ha# a Part The public has * direct and active part, in the success of a newspaper. The newspaper is a public servant giving an efficient and accurate run­ ning record of what the public thinks, does and wants to do. It has, if it is adequately performing its duty, scores, and in some cases hundred of collaborators, who in their own wish to build up the community are an­ xious to see that information reaches the editor and reporters. News­ gathering is no magic process by which material is “snatched out of the air" as a conjuror produces a rabbit from a hat. It is a process built up on experience, tact and skill on the part of the newspaperman, and goodwill and co-operation on the part of the public. —Kirkland Lake News. The Home-Town Newspaper John H. Casey, professor of jour­ nalism in the University of Okla­ homa, has this to say of the home­ town newspaper: “Without its news­ paper, the small town would be like a school without a teacher or a church without a pastor. In the aggregate, the country newspaper de­ termines the outcome of more elect­ ions .exerts a greater influence for constructive community progress, is read longer by mote members of the family, and constitutes with its millions of readers a better advertis­ ing medium than any other group of newspapers or periodica! publica­ tions.” Brooding Chicks Much of success in brooding is dependent on having chicks proper­ ly hatched from healthy, vigorous parents. From observations made and ex­ periments conducted at the Domin­ ion Experimental Station, Lennox- ville, Que., it has been found that the most economical and successful system is the coal burning brooder stove and an adaptable colony house. This system has eo much to recom­ mend that it is inadvisable to use any other method. It can be oper­ ated successfully in either a special­ ly built colony house, or a spare pen dn a hen house, which may later be utilized for growing stock or winter layers. After hatching, the chicks should he left in the incubator until they are perfecty dry. Great care should be exercised in t^tnsferring them to the brooder to avoid chill, and the brooder pen should ibe warmed for at least twenty-four hours before the chicks are placed in it. The chicks should be confined close to the brooder for the first day. Then, as they become accustomed to their quarters, they may be given more liberty. Rapid hardening is desir­ able and important, but on no ac­ count should the temperature be lowered to an uncomfortable level. The thermometer, which should read from 100 to 110 degrees, at the edge of the cover, may be used as an indicator, but the chicks themselves should be the proper guide for regu­ lating the temperature. If the chicks crowd they are too cold; if they lie .'spread out on the floor, around the hover, the temperature is right. Through further experiments con­ ducted at this Station, it has been found that for successful feeding, it in necessary to use grain, vegetable, animal and mineral feeds, with a lib­ eral supply of clean fresh water. Most of the commercial "Chick Starter Feeds" at present available arc perfectly reliable and quite sat­ isfactory. For those wishing to mix their own rations, the following mixture is recommended; One part each of shorts, middlings, corn-meal, and oat-moal, ten percent, fine ment- meal, three per cent, bone-meal, one per cent fine salt and two per cent, cod liver oil. In addition to this a supply of grit, oyster ehell and char­ coal should be fod, along with water and milfc, if available. It has been found that 100 chicks will consume 200 pounds of feed in their flrat six weeks. These results were obtain­ ed with feed placed in protected hopper* which prevent waste and as­ sure sanitation. At ten weeks of age feed changes should be made and a growing mash provided, together with adequate The total value of Canadian field crops harvested in 1934 is now es­ timated at $544,(I’M,600 compared with a revised estimate of J453.598,- 000 for 1933.

County School Boards Dr. Peter Sanford, director of edu­cational research at the Ontario Col­ lege of Education, Toronto, has had something to say about the system of administering rural schools. The whole plan, he says is an anachron­ ism. There are too many trustees, too much government, and he would make the county the administrative unit instead of the school section. There is good sense in this observa­ tion, declares the Ottawa Journal. The school section unit survives, of course, from the old days when set­ tlements were few and isolated from one another, when communication was difficult. To-day conditions have changed, but not the practice, and we have, according to Dr. Sand­ ford, 16,965 trustees controlling rural schools with 7,118 teachers. Toronto, by contrast, has 3,0000 teachers and only twenty trustees, xr! cfimS a ,tr mfihyw nwarz?ta,fte It should not be dificult to prove that both efficiency and economy would be promoted by county school boards. No doubt, the objection will be raised that this form of control would be out of touch with local problems, and some people will see perils in centralization, but it will be agreed that a board with county jurisdiction would attract men of greater experience than often are available for individual schools The same argument for centraliza­ tion applies to townships, as has often been pointed out on several occasions. In the old days, when transportation was crude and com­ munication difficult, it was neces­ sary to establish township councils and school sections within a few miles of each other. The coming of the automobile has changed all that. A school section or township representative can now travel fifty or a hundred miles with ease and with loss of little time. For thin rea­ son the need of so many local or­ ganizations has disapeared. Uni­fied control would result in greater efficiency and more economy. Like all new things, the suggestion will, of course meet with disapproval from those who desire to let things stand as they are. The amalgamation of school sections and townships is bound to come in time, and these difficult days present an unanswer­ able argument in its favor without further delay, Fertilizer Application Experiments have been conducted in Eastern and Western Canada for severa] years, concerning methods of application of commercial fertilizers, with particular regard to the place­ ment of the fertilizer in relation to the various seeds.

In certain crops, the germination of the seed is check­ ed and in some eases completely ruined by contact with commercial fertilizer. While this does not apply to wheat, oats, and barley, it is not advisable to seed com in contact. The fertilizer should be applied in bands of about two inches to the side and slightly below »r level with the seed. In the case of peas, the fertilizer should be separated slightly from the seed, praferably below the seed with one-half to one inch of soil between. Good re­ sults have been obtained with ferti­ lizer or potatoes, both broadcast and in drill or row.

Sandy's eyebrows came down, and his eyes narrowed. “in that case," he said, "we might have dinner together. tonight-I'd en­joy feeling like a husband-robbing Lothario for a change. I’m sort of beginning to lose confidence in my­ self.” Ellen felt just a little icy, inside. It was the first time since her wed­ding that she'd actually made the break—that she'd put herself, mar­ ried. in a position of accepting social favors from another man."1'11 meet you anywhere you say. Sandy" she told him. "at any time you say." "Let’s make it a real party.” he said. “We'll dress, and I’ll stop for you at your place in about an hour. I don’t suppose, by any chance, that you'd have a cocktail waiting for me?”“Marriage," she said, "hasn't changed my ideas about that, Sandy."But she was all ready when he eame for her in an hour (she met him at the door, he mustn't come up to her so obviously unchanged apart­ment!) Sandy did it all very well! It was as if that evening he were planning to outdo himself—to make the party memorable. They rode in state tc one of the larger hotels that boasted a dance orchestra and a roof garden. They were shot, in the hotel ele­vator, to the roof garden. They were shown to a table close beside the dance floor. “It’s a nice roof!” she told him— and tried valiantly not to tell herself that it would have been perfect it Tony had been the one to hold back her chair, to seat himself opposite her! "I suppose," said Sandy, as he studied the menu, “that th J boy friend is working, or something. Well, more power to him!” And Ellen echoed, “More power to him," as she folded her hands tight beneath the damask table cloth, and let her eyes wander across the room. As her glance wan­dered from table to table, she felt her body stiffen. For there, directly across the dance floor, immaculate in dinner jacket, and with his blue eyes bluer than ever, sat Tony. Tony wasn't alone, either, for Jane in'a wisp of devastatingly cut flame-col­ ored chiffon, sat opposite him. “Why," Ellen whispered, and her breath came in startled little gasps, “why, there's Tony, now!"It wasn’t' that her voice carried, it was that her thought carried! Tuny looked up from across the room as sharp as Sandy did from across the table. And then, without a word to the girl in flame color who sat op­posite him, he was up out of his feet, was coming over the polished square of dance floor. "Say." he began, “this is a sur­prise 1”Sandy had risen, and was fingering the silkiness of his Vandyke beard. The gesture was sophisticated, per­haps, but the eyes above the beard were frankly apprehensive."So it is," said Sandy. ;He grinned nervously. “Just what does one do in a situation like this?" he asked. “It’s all out of order 1" Ellen was laughing. She tried to make her laughter sound casual."One says, 'Hello'," she said, "and 'goodby’.“ Jmy wasn’t as brown as he had been when Ellen first saw him.“You’re all wrong, Ellen," he said. “At a time like this, parties join to­gether! If you haven’t ordered, come over to our table." There wasn’t anything else to do. Ellen, as gracefully as possible, and wishing that her dress were pink or blue or orchid or anything but white, ■rose from her seat, and was escorted by the two men back to the place where the girl !n flame chiffon was sitting.The wallar brought forward two “Just what does one do in a situa­tion like thia?” asked Sandy. ’’I think, Jane,” he said fthey'd never gotten past the first name stage),- "that it's up to me to take you home, even though I started the party with another gal! After all, you know, we’re on the outside, look­ing in.” Jane bit her lip sharply, , “I've got my car downstairs," she said. "I can take you all home, you And at last, after detailed direc­ tions had been given to the chauf­feur. the car came to a stop in front of Ellen's house. The moment had arrived—and Tony rose to it nobly."Thanks, Jane." he said, as he helped Ellen out of [he car. "You were nice to come to dinner with me—and nice to bring us home."It would have been all right if Jane” had left it that way— if she had just said a gracious goodnight- For a anomtni, one imagines that she meant to, ahd then she leaneJ out of the car arid her slim, beauti­ful hand rested lightly upon the sleeve of Tony’s coat."You'll not forget,” she said, "that it's my birthday Saturday, and that the crowd is coming down to our country place for the weekend. You said you'd be there, you know."Tony mumbled something. It sounded to Ellen like 'TH remem­ber." And then he was starting to slam shut the door of the car. But his movement was arrested by Sandy's gay> tactless voice. “Throwing a party," Sandy asked, "and not inviting me! How come- Ellen should have somebody along who talks her language. She’d be lost with all of you folks—who are Philistines.”Sandy, you see. was assuming— the other three. Jane and Ellen and Tony, realized it at the same horrible second — that Ellen was to be a member of the party! The birthday house party to which Jane had in­ vited Tony—Tony evidently, to her mind, was still playing the role of a bachelor! “Of course, you can come, Sandy.” she said, sweetly, "if you want to. It might be much more charming for Ellen to have one of her own—sort. Maybe you have the right idea, at that.1' And then the car had gone flash­ ing down the street.For a long moment there was silence before Ellen found words. Before she spoke in a voice that was shot through with bewilder­ ment. "And now," she said, “what are we going to do?” Tony laughed boyishly,"I guess,” he said, "that it's alt set I It begins to look as if you're coming with me to a house party. Sandy certainly put Jane in an odd position, didn't he? But. as usual, she came through one hundred par cent" BEACHVILLE Mr. Wellington Hunt of Port Bur­well, and Mr. and Mrs| F.

But Ellen wasn’t dancing with Tony, not tonight. Dancing with Tony always had a ruinous effect upon her."Sandy brought me,” she said, “I’ll have this one with him.”It wasn't a jolly evening. But it managed to be adequately conversa­ tional and very polite. No reference was made to the last evening that the four spent together. And then, after the dinner had been drawn out as long as possible, it was tima to go home I There wasn't any­thing else to do. It was Sandy, not Tony, who de­ cided the situation. •Yea." said Ellen, "yes, she dnt;. Jane did coms through. As usual, j She spoke so softly that for all Tony knaw she was sighing He didn't know that all at once there was a seething anger in her heart."You’re rather a peach, you know," she told Tony, and her tone was not at all casual "You’ve made everything very easy for me, to­night. But even though you’re so regular, even though you've been truly wonderful, I couldn’t possibly accept Jane’s invitation — I can't possibly accept ■pane's invitation — I can’t possibly go to her party. She was forced into asking me, you realize that. She doesn't want me— why should she want me? It’s you she wantsl" Tony answered. "I’d like, Ellen," he said, answer­ing the first part of her remark, "to make al! of life very easy for you, if I could. That happens—" his voice also had lost its casual note, "that happens to be the way I care about you." He paused. And then he was answering the last part of what she had said to him. "But," he added, “I do wish awfully you’d come to Jane's party. She may have been forced into asking you—I’m honest enough to admit that she was—but the im­ portant thing is that she did ask you. Under the circumstances, if you don’t go, I couldn’t go either, now And if I don’t appear on Jane's birthday, my crowd will think it’s strange. And so—" even through the dark Ellen was aware of his . smile, "and so it would seem that we're in a box. Fortunately we’re in the same box. Not—" the smile had grown into his carefree young laughter, "not that it isn’t very nice to be in a box with yout” Ellen was turning again; they were getting nowhere. She started to move wearily toward the steps [of the house in which she lived. Tony followed her. They climbed the steps together, slowly. I "I don’t know what to do, Tony." she said, and her voice was vague. "Don't you think we'd better let itI ride — all of this business about I Jane’s party? Let's not worry about it tonight. Let's just wait and see what happens.”Tony was speaking. "Whether you go to Jane’s or not.” he said, and his tone was wistful, “I wish we might have a few evenings to­ gether. This has been sort of grand, hasn't it? To me it’s been kind of crazy not seeing you since—” his voice lowered, "our wedding day.” For just one second—one second out of all life—Ellen dared to be eager. She did not draw her hand away, even though it was held *« loosely. ■‘Sometimes," she said, “during the last two weeks I, too, felt that we were silly. I'd be glad to see you just as often as you want to see me, you know." She said the last with a rush. She tried not to emphasize the word, "just as often as you want to sec me." Tony answered very seriously, “That would be quite a lot," he said, "I guess we won’t go into that. I guess you understand.” He hesi­ tated slightly. "Well, I guess it's goodnight." Ellen was faltering there in the doorway. She took a step forward —Tony was very close, it was a short step. But despite his close­ness, he couldn't know that she was near to yielding — to making crazy, sweet admissions. “Won’t you come up," she asked, "for just a minute?"But Tony was moving away from her, down the steps. It seemed as if the distance was automatically widening between them.“I'd like to,” he said, "but I don’t trust myself to come up with you Unless—your invitation means more than I think it does. You must rea- lize why 1 can't."Ellen was fumbling with her latch key. She knew in her soul that she must open the door quickly before she told Tony how much she wanted hint to come in, how much she wanted him not to trust himself. She couldn't make that move—she wouldn’t. He wouldn'l be given a chance to hurt her pride or to break her heart. She must open the door, now—and go inside, alone. In the morning Jane’s letter came, as Ellen had known that it would."My party,” read the pseudo- original letter, “is going to be very informal. Just a few of my oldest and most intimate friends have been asked down. Of course, I do hope you can come and that you won't find it too dull — being among strangers.” As Ellen read the edged words, she was suddenly more bitterly an­noyed than she had ever been in her life."I won't go," she was storming, "I won't! I won’t! I won’t!” T h at resolution carried her through the first half of the day. Carried her along until Sandy's note arrived."I’m wondering," Sandy wrote, "if I can go up to Jane's party with you and Tony, on Saturday? Drive up with you, I mean. I've decided to accept the gal's invitation—it ought to be fun.” Continued Next Week Local Holstein Breeders Make Good Sales Tower.

Canadian hay as required in Bel­ gium, must be No. 1 extra, mixed, 75 per cent, timothy and 25 per cent, clover. Hay enters Belgium free. Expansion of the sale of canned goods on the domestic and export market offers the most hopeful out­ let for an increased production of vegetables in this province. Observations extending over a long period indicate that thin, sparse pasturages for sheep encourage the growth of the finer grades of wool, while thick, lush grass increases the proportion of the coarses grades. British Apple Market Mr. A. Fulton, overBeas fruit representative, advises that pros­ pects for Ontario apples in Great Britain for the balance of the sea­ son are far from encouraging, al­ though a reaction is expected, after the deplorable market conditions of February, as common storage apples from Nova Scotia and English sour­ ces are now practically finished. In order to get values up to remuner­ ative levels before the season finishes in about three week's time, it will require shipments of outstanding quality and condition to regain con­ fidence of the buyers.

At the Cap Rouge Experi­ mental Station, the hens are select­ ed by the trapnesting method and the poor layers are marketed after their first year's laying. Hatch­ ings eggs are selected from high producers, and should weigh at least 24 ounces per dozen. Un­ thrifty chicks, and cockerels except those from the beet hens are mar­ keted during the summer. By mid­ September the pullets which are strong, vigorous, healthy and active, which have a large, deep head, stout beak, and large, bright promin­ ent eyes are kept, while the birds which are unthrifty or unhealthy, which have a crow head, long shal­ low beak or small, sunken eyes, or are off-types are eliminated. Agricultural Feature* The Wilmot Township Agricultural Society in Waterloo County is to be congratulated on launching a new programme. A aeries of education­ al meetings has been commenced. At the first of these, the main sub­ jects for co ns id erat ion we re were “Control of the Warble Fly” and "Reforestation." Two other meet­ ings of a similar nature, but on other subjects will be held this spring. This organizations plana to serve al! farmer# in the Society area, with a general agricultural programme in­ stead of being satisfied to function in the holding of a fair only. On March 8th the South Ontario Agricultural Society gave a complim­ entary dinner to membora who had brought honour to the Society, and Ontario County by winning major awards at National and International Shows. The president of the So­ ciety, Hon. W. E. N. Sinclair, was a very genial host, to representative live stock men from other parts of the Province in addition to Directors and Members of the Society, In presenting illuminated Address­ es to these leading stock men, it was made evident the raising of good stock is a cherished, tradition in On- tario County, as several families are now in the third generation of prom­ inent stock men. Some of thoae honoured were—Robt. Duff & Son; Lance Death; S. B. Glaapell; Wm. Dryden and Frank Batty. Cleaning Out Couch The eradication of couch grass, othewise known as quack, twitch or scutch grass, is one of the hardest problems with which the farmer has to deal. Few people realize the enormous quantity of couch grass roots which exist in infested soil. Testa conducted by the Central Ex­ perimental Farm at Ottawa show weights of roots ranging from 1,531 to 6997 pounds to the acre—as much as a heavy crop of hay. No wonder it is hard to clean out when it spreads by roots as well as seed. Thor- ouhgly cleaning out the roots is the one effective way of getting rid of couch. In small areas this may be done by hand. In larger areas by shallow plowing and working thor­ oughly with the cultivator to keep the roots turned up to the sun long enough for them to “kill*' Only as large an area as can be thoroughly cleaned up at one time should be undertaken, as half-way measures arc only lost time and effort. Demand For Canadian Pear* A general survey of production the slump in prices and the arrival of apples in an unattractive condi­ tion, the trade has lost interest in the business as they see no hope of re­ covery with present supplies. Every­ one feels that it will take fresh apples to stimulate business, with the result that attention is now being directed to the Australasian season opening up towards the end of March, when the first steamers are expected to arrive. Under these conditions, Mr. Fulton cannot fore­ see high prices for Ontario apples again this season. Much sunshine and a fair amount of rainfall during the summer of 1934 undoubtedly provided proper conditions for a bountiful storage of sap in maple trees. With frosty nights and mild days during the sugaring season, an abundant crop is expected this year. A fire prevention expert recently stated that fire loss on farms would be substantially reduced if a ladder .were part of the equipment of every farm. A ladder kept in a conven­ ient place makes any roof fire quick­ ly accessible and provides the means for occasioned inspection of chim- news and flues. Potato Price) Up The following are the prices of potatoes paid to farmers in Ontario on January 31 and February 29, 1935, after one month’s operation of the Eastern Potato Marketing Board which commenced to function on Feb. 4: Per 90-lb. bag.

Horticultural Note) House Plants—.Nearly all smooth- ieavcd plants are greatly benefited by applications of water to their fol­iage, provided the sun is not allowed to shine on them while wet. But plants having hairy leaves, like the Gloxinia and the Rex Begonia, are almost invariably injured by the ap- placation of water to the foliage. Bear this in mind, and be governed in showering your plants by the peculiarities of their foliage. Transplanting — In putting out plants in the garden, choose a cloudy day for it, if possible. Water well when you plant. Shade for a day or two, or till they begin to grow. Geraniums—These are hot weath­ er plants: they like hot rooms and steam heat, but they cannot be ex­ pected to produce many flowers un­ less they are placed in a sunny south window, free from curtains. They prefer heavy soil and must not be grown in pots too large, else they will not bloom ao profusely. Cut them back each fall to make them bushy, otherwise they will fill too much window apace. Good house plants of geraniums are obtained by taking slips in Summer and growing the plants in pots until winter. Ferns—The leas finely divided leaf sorts of Boston ferns are the most successful. Fems generally do not prefer the full sunshine and must be kept from cold drafts. The soil which suita-them beat is ohe derived from decayed sod or J leaf-mold. Fems need an abundance of water, but poor drainage and “wet feat should be avoided. Syringe the plants often if tlfty are to be kept healthy, / O. A. C.

Started eleven years ngo by of fresh pears in Canada suggests that pear acreage can be increased 20 per cent, before the domestic market reaches a saturation point This situation, together with an in­ creased export demand, seems to warrant consideration being given to the possibility of increased plantings, mainly of the Bartlett variety. The United Kingdom cannot get enough Canadian pears, the British market absorbing all the Canadian exports and asking for more. The 1934 statistics show that 44 per cent, of the total imports of pears into Great Britain were from Empire sources, Canada contributing less than five per cent. During the twelve months ended March 31, 1934, exports of canned pears from Canada to the British market increased 46 per cent, compared wth the previous season's peara amounting approximately to 180,000 bushels are imported every year into Canada from the United States, a large proportion of this import finding its way into canned stock. Hay Market Report Eattern and Northern Ontario There is still plenty of hay avail­ able and farmers who have held their hay since last autumn for firmer prices are now wishing to sell so that dealers are able to discriminate as to price and quality. About 400 tons of hay have been graded in eas­ tern Ontario during the past month for shipment to the Maritime Prov­ inces. Current prices being paid growers range from 37 to $9 per ton according to grade and class.

Southwestern Ontario — A fair supply of timothy and timothy mix- tures and alfalfa is still available in the Owen Sound district and there has been some movement of alfalfa recently for meal manufacturing purposes. There 1B a shortage of hay in a number of counties in this part of Ontario, but this is being offset largely by other roughage such as corn stocks and straw supplement­ed perhaps witho molasses, so as t winter the stock without hay. There was a fair corn crop last year in most counties, which produced a fair quantity of good silage and besides many farmers have plenty of grain, all of which )esens the- need for hay. It is believed that most counties will have sufficient fodder to carry their stock until at least April 1st, at which time there should be a fair demand for hay from outside sources. Prices being paid growers, per ton, at principal market centers less freight costs are: for timothy No, 1 316. to 317.50; No. 2, 314 to 316; No. 3, 312 to 14; wheat straw $7 to $8; oat straw, 35-75 to 37-50.
