While the weatherman kept the weather quite chilly for the big band tattoo held in Ingersoll lost Monday rngirt, hundreds of people, both from the town and the surrounding dis­ trict, gathered on the corners of the main streets long before the hour of the parade in an effort to view the proceedings as the large parade made its way to Victoria Paric. v , Four of the bands marched to the V. market square from the outskirts of * the town where they met in one body and from this point they went to the - poet office and then up Thames tu-eet, each band playing a number s they reached the eager throngs who looked on with interest. The parade was of a considerable length, consisting of the Tillsonburg Boys’ Band, the Brantford Boys' Band, the Woodstock Boys’ Band, the Norwich ’ Boys’ Band, the Ingersoll Pipe Band, who were assisted by members from the St- Thomas Pipe Band, The /Woodstock Oxford Rifles Band and tbe Oxford Rifles Bugle Band. All these bands together with the turn­ out of the Woodstock and Ingersoll Oxford Rifles, in full force, made the parade one of great interest from every angle. As the procession made its way through the busy streets of the town a large number of the people fol­ lowed to the park, where everything was found in readiness for the big event. Large floodlights had been installed on the top of the grand- ’ ' stand and special lights in the field directly in front of the stand. Apart from this was the loudspeaking sy­ stem of Joseph Wilson which wade ft possible for the large gathering to hear very plainly everything that was said from the platform of the '* bandstand. From every indication at tiie park it looked ns if the citi- ’xens were in for a big night and they were. It took some time for the various bands to get into the park and settle - into their positions. This was done after they had paraded before the crowded grandstand. The Oxford » Rifles with their two bands, and out in large numbers, provided a unique . sight as they marched past the crowds with their recently-acquired peace-time uniforms, led by Lieut. Col. Forbes, 0. C. After taking ' their positions, Col. Forbes was greeted by His Worship Mayor Wilson, who then inspected the troops of the regiment. Rcturnng to the stand, Mayor Wilson spoke briefly, stating that it ’ was gratifying to see so many pres­ ent. He also paid tribute to the Ingersoll Pipe Band who had just a few momenta previous received a large hand from the crowd as they marched in. His Worship also ex- , pretaed his appreciation to LieuL- Col. Forbes of the Oxford Rides for bringing that organization to Inger­ soll for tiiis affair and for taking such a large part in the program. ■J (Joi. Forbes also addreised the glarin g.

EVERYBODY WELCOME In what turned out to be one of the longest drawn-out coses heard in polke court in Ingersoll in a long time took its stand here last Friday afternoon and after going until about 7.20 p.m., Stanley Jones of Ingersoll, was convicted on a charge of selling liquor illegally and senten­ ced to two months in jail by Magis­ trate C. W. Hawkshaw. The charge against Jones appears to have arisen as a counter-charge after the accused had charged four local men with the stealing of six cases of beer from his property on the day of September 1st, Craig McKay, K.C., of Woodstock, appeared for the crown and insisted that since be was interested in the charge against Jones only, that this charge be given preference. As a result the court found it extremely difficult to carry on with the selling charge without involving the four other Ingersoll men. Consequent­ ly the case took so much of the time that the charge against the four young men was lad ovre until Oct­ ober 4th. Jones pleaded not guilty to tho charge, W. R. Marshall of Ingersoll, appearing on his behalf.A large number of witne®ee were called to the stand and as a result the case was one that appeared to have many angles connected with it to say the least. Aska That Citizen* Co- Operate With Firemen With the fall term upon us again and the time to start our fires in cool evenings, Fire Chief H. G. Gil­ lespie again issues a warning to the people to exercise car? and following ie byword to the people of Inger­ soll:— “I wish to advise the citizens in general that at this time of the year It is advisable .to re-examine your furnaces, stoves, etc., before the cold weather sets in.

From the opinion express­ ed by Mr. Preston, the caretaker of the Ward school and the Collegiate Institute, Mr. Pickard is shirking in his duties in that particular capacity and refused on one occason to do as Mr. Preston asked him In connection with the removal of the said weeds. It was explained that the caretaker informed Mr. Preston that he never did that kind of work and it was his intention not to take up such a prac­ tice at the present time for Trustee Preston or anyone else and at this meeting, the said Mr. Preston want­ ed to know just who was running that property, Mr. Pickard or him­ self. To add fire to the already heated argument, Trustee Preston took an opportunity of. going aifter Chair­ man David for teDing Mr. Pickard not to appear at this meeting after Mr. Preston had told him to come up and there, thrash the [whole mat­ ter out. This led on and on until finally order was restored at which time Mr. Preston’s resolution was passed by the Board that the sum of $5 be deducted from the salary of Mr. Pickard for the removal of these weeds in front of the Ward school which was done while the curetaker was away on his vacation. Another item of interest in the meeting was the suggestion of Miss Dora Harrison, who has recently completed her course in piano teach­ ing, in the schools which was con­ ducted in Toronto and London.

Driving his Little Miss Canada IV like tln> true champion that he fe, Harold Wilson, son of Mr. and Mra. E. A. Wilson, Ann street, came through again last Friday night ot the Canadian National Exhibition to win second place and tbe world’s championship for the second time in as many years in the 226 cubic inch class. Speeding through tbe Mme waters earlier in the week, Wilson oecured two Arabs and in the third and final heat last Friday night, he eased his big craft into second place and then be shot across the line for the title. Driving his Little Miss Canada IV through the rough choppy waters of Luke Ontario, the boat left only a spray for others to face. It was openly stated at the beginning of the races that Wilson was the man to beat for the title and true enough, he was. After taking the first two heats in first place, all Wilson had to^do WM to finish in the first five jx»i|ions and with this in mind the expert pilot made no mistake and made sure of it by coasting into a second place. Any kind of a break against him would have spelled de­ feat for this boat and her craw of two, but Wilson with his ever-faith­ ful mechanic, MIM Lorna Reid, took no unnecessary chances and finished in the running giving him a large margin when the points for wins were counted. Dispaying that undaunted courage and skill that has carried him through on previou occasions making him one of the most popular figures in the race, Wilson’s second triumph proved to be a most popular one. Several factors enter into the win—his boat, reputed bigger and better than that of last year—as well as his superb driving were oil “ifs” and “ands" that helped in no small way to give the Ingersoll man and his mechanic the honors. One indication of the spirit shown at the races was that one of the com­ petitors wished to buy the smart Miss Canada The Fourth. In the final heat last Friday night, Wilson followed in second position behind Dr. C. H. Bagley’s Wilmer III, who was considered the most serious challenger in the three heats. It is said that the boat own­ ed by Dr. Bagley, had been doing a speed of Aome 52 miles per hour at one time while the local craft was reputed to be doing as high as 61 miles per hour. These sgid speeds in the final heat are the fastest of the entire series. While credit and praise is given to Harold Wilson for his masterful work in the race, one of his meet important aids was the assistance of his faithful mechanic, Miss Lorna Reid of Toronto, who rode Last year as well as this year with the cham­ pion. It (was the splendid courage of Miss Reid who sat with him through all three he*ts, that helped to give him tho , title last year as well. Through her efforts in racing with Wilson, Miss Reid has become a popular young lady both in Tor­ onto and in Ingeraoli as was seen at tbe time of the celebration held for Wilson last year. Thera was no doubt as to the popularity of the Ingeraoll young man in his home town on the even­ ings of the races as all one could hear was "How dad Wilson make out today?” Win, lose or drawraw, Har­ old Wilson is a man every person in tho town of Ingeraoll should feel proud, as he is a true champion in every sense of the word and his auhievementa in boat racing have been admired in every part Of the province.

Stevens Wax Plucking of PoultryTHURSDAY, SEPT. 12th, 1935The Lure of FireWanting has been given to auto­mobile drivers in Ingersoll that if they do not cease following fire reeks to fires, they will be prosecuted. This warning is the result of firemen beng impeded in their duties because of the number of automobitee that follow them and park as close as possible to the scene of the blaM- The request that both motorists and pedestriane should keep out of way of the fire reel* and firemen is a reasonable one. It is to the ad­ vantage of all concerned that it should be respected. Otherwise, accidents may occur and the firemen may be handicapped in the efforts to subdue blazes. We admit that there is something unusually attractive about a fire. People will gather around one more rapidly than even around the scene of an accident. We all remember as boys running after the reels and there are many to whom a fire is still a lure late in life. We know of one important citizen in a large city who will get up out of bed when he hears the reels go by, and check, with the fire station to find out where it is. If it » any sort of a blaze at al! and near at hand, he will has­ ten to it Otherwise he is quite a normal man. This calling of the fire station, as Chief DeFields has pointed out, is an­ other dangerous practice. It ties up the station switchboard and if the firemen call back to get reinforce­ ments, sometimes they cannot get through. Al! should remember it is the first duty of firemen to get to and put out fires as quickly as possible. And it is the duty of all citizens to assist the firemen in their duty as much as possible. And it is the duty of al! citizens to assist the firemen in their duty as much possible by keeping out of their way.—(Windsor Daily Star.) An Escaped Lion A strange and thrilling incident which took place in Melbourne, Aus­ tralia, not long ago, is related by Ellen Velvin F.Z.S., in From Jungle to Zoo. The story was given to her, she state*, by one whose word is ab­ solutely reliable. It seems that a lion, a full-grown male, was one of a group performing at that time in a large music hall. .One afternoon, after the perform­ ance, in some way his cage was left open, and the lion very quietly walked out of the stage door and down the street At first no one seemed to notice him, but after a ,while he met a lady who looked at him for a moment and then realiz­ ing that it was actually a live lion, promptly fainted away. The lion stopped, sniffed at her contemptu­ ously, and then, evidently not consid­ ering her interesting, passed on. By this time he had been seen, and people flew from him in all dir­ ections, but the lion kept on his way (juietly, and curiously enough walk­ ed right up one of the principal streets in Melbourne, and actually turned into the offices of the So­ ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Of course, after the first moment of paralyzed astonish­ ment, every door in the building was immediately locked against him, and fortunately someone had the pres­ ence of mind to shut the outer door as well, so he was confined to the vestibules and stairs. After walking around and making a quiet tour of inspection, the lion began to get restless and wanted to get out and spent his time in rushing up and down the stairz, roaring at the top of his powerful voice. Mean­ while, the rmmermc crowd outside which had quicky gathered shouted loud and futile advice to those im* prisoned ineide, whose feelings can be better imagined than described. Finally his trainer arrived just when everyone . was becoming desperate , and backing the cage which he had . brought with him to the door, invited ; the lion, with kind words, and a | piece of meat, to enter it. And the lion, walked placidly into the cage, at his meat, and then, Bat­ tling himself down comfortably, went sound asleep. THE REASON A couple of workmen were excav­ ating for a proposed building, when •n interested spectator inquired: "How is it, Pat, although you and Miko started together he has a bigger pile of dirt than yon?" "Shure,” wag the retort, diggin’ a bigger hole.”"he'i An employer can judge an appli­cant for a job by noting where theAlways and everywhere the pay a* you go ia the direct, courageous, and honest route to economic health and public welfare.—d’erth Courier.A tnus of 600 tons of rock fell from Gibraltar into the sea.

The Disposal of Garden Waite In all gardens there is a relatively large amount of waste material such as grass and the leaves and stalks of flowers and vegetables, which is generally burnt or removed as gar­ bage and is lost to the garden. Moat of this waste ia organic, that is, largely composed of carbon­ aceous matter, and is deerived from the carbon dioxide in the air, from the water in the soil and the plant food constituente dissolved in this water. When rotted, this material is often called humus, which is the mass of organic material which has largely lost its fibrous structure. This material is valuable to the soil, both for the nitrogen and other plant food which it contains and also for the beneficial action of the or­ ganic matter on the texture of the soil. The rotting of garden waste is a simple matter and can be carried out by making a compact pile of the waste and occasionally wetting it in order to hasten the rotting. It will bo found that in a few months the material is in a fit condition to be spread on the soil and ploughed or dug in. At this time the coarser materials such as cabbage stalks and woody materials can be separated and burnt, the ashes being distributed over the garden. A better plan, if manure is avail­ able, is to form a compost of the manure and the garden waste. This is done by placing the waste and manure in alternate layers, and making the heap compact by tramp­ ing and watering. Composting has­ tens the rotting of the garden waste. That was by no means the end of the variety in his life. When he came back to Vancouver he worked in a grocery store, studied and be­ came an accountant, branched out into a financial broker. He was at one time or another, if reports are accurate, a real estate dealer and the editor of a militant weekly. He began to take a keen interest in civic affairs, joined a temperance ‘banish the bar’ movement, became an aiderman, undertook to help ‘Clean Up* Vancouver. His first active participation in Federal Politics came in the year of the Reciprocity Camapign, 1911. He had been working for one of the Conservative candidates as an organ­ izer when it was suggested, to him that he let his own name stand as candidate for Vancouver Centre. He won the scat with the handsome majority of 3,256. He was a back­ bencher with R, R. Bennett and Arthur Meighen, behind the Govern­ ment of Sir Robert Borden, in 1911-1917. He won election after election in Vancouver Centre—indeed, until he was defeated by Hon. Ian MacKen­ zie in 1930 ho came to be known as the man who never lost a fight. In 1917 he had a majority of 8,179 and his majority never dropped to less than a thousand. His subsequent history Is better known to the public. He became one of the front benchers, acquiring a reputation for 'being fearless, a hard worker and agreeable in man­ ner and word. He developed a tal­ ent as an effective debater, with a flair ica appealing to the emotions of his listeners. His first big op­ portunity came in 1926, when Uieful Household Recipes The following recipes have been prepared and tested at the Central Experimental Farm, Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture Marrow Jam Peel the marrow ami cut in half inch cubes.

In 1926-30 he was one of the effective critics of the MacKenzie King administration. When 1930 came along although personally de­ feated, he was chosen for the re­ sponsible post of Minister of Trade The UM of wax in the phicking of poultry o»e of the moet important steps accomplished in the market- poultry industry of Canada during the past twelve months. In this re­spect, no publication relating to poultry has been awaited with more interest than the pamphlet on this subject now being issued jointly by the National Research Council of Canada and the Dominion Depart­ ment of Agriculture. The results of extensive investigations and ac­ tual practice, embracing the prepar­ ation of birds for waxing, wax coating the birds, wax plucking broilers, reclaiming the ,w®^ which can be used again and again, and indeed all the steps involved in the wax plucking of poultry suitable dor use on a small Kale on the farm, are fully explained, augmented by many fine illustrations. Wax plucking operations are simple and, straightforward and suit­ able equipment may be assembled from the utensils in general use on the farm. Many people who were expert at killing poultry hesitated at dressing tho binds on account of the possibility of tearng and disfig­ uring the carcases, more particu­ larly those of crate-fed well-finished poultry. With the advent of wax plucking that hesitancy has been overcome. In view of the increas­ ing number of farmers who desired to finish and dress their poultry properly art. home, a constant search has been maintained by office™ of the Dominion Department of Agri­ culture in charge of market-poultry improvement to find ways and means of facilitating the flushing and sale of the birds over a wider period of the year, and also of decreasing the more onerous and difficult parts of the dressing operations without re­ course to the elaborate and expen­ sive equipment necessary to the wet- pluck in vogue in the United States. The Canadian officers felt that the possibilities of wax plucking dry-roughed birds jwere worthy of investigation and, under the direct­ ion of the Director off Research of the Department of Agriculture, of­ ficers of the Poultry Services of the live Stock Branch conferred with officers of the Chemistry Division of the National Research Council and a co-operative project was planned. The National Research Council sup­ plied the research specialists and fac­ ilities for work, the Live Stock Branch the trade knowledge and lab­ oratory assistance, and the Dominion Experimental Farms Branch the nec­ essary live birds with which to work. The object was to find a formula for wax plucking and a method that would supplement the dry rough- pluck in use on Canadian farms and one for which the necessary equip­ ment would be both simple and In­ expensive. This has been done. Meanwhile about 140 formulas had been prepared and tested before a suitable wax and method had been evolved. Applications as to .where the wax may be obtained should be addressed to the National Research Council, Ottawa. Copies of the pamphlet "The Use of Wax in the Plucking of Poultry", by Dr. N.

R. ii one of the world’* greatett tran*portatioa It* length oftrack alone eotitlei it to thu distinction, but its chief claim rc*U upon ihe nature and octet of the service* it renders. While entering practically every important centre in Canada it »l*o serves widely diversified and distant areas, and ia very many instances i» the sole agency providing railway facilities. The C. N. R. ia a large direct employer of labour, and indirectly, by virtue of the nature of its freight and other services, also enters importantly and indis­ pensably into the commercial and industrial activities of the Dominion , . . creating new wealth . . . distributing raw and manufactured goods . . . enabling more employment and wages to be provided. Notwithstanding the sparsely populated condition of much of the territory from which the C. N. R. obtains it* freights of grains, minerals, forest products, etc, its charge* for haulage are very low . . . Canadian railway freight rate* are probably the lowest in the world. On an average the C. N. R. receives less than one cent for hauling a ton of freight one mile. Of every dollar of revenue received the C. N. R. pay* more than one half to its employees as wages, and it purchases every year many millions of dollars worth of Canadian made or produced materials. The C. N. R. also pay* in the course of a year over six million dollars in various taxes. These facts, although thus briefly stated, are of tremendous importance to Canada and Canadians. They ase here presented in the hope that greater patronage will follow a wider appreciation of the part this great railway system is performing in the commerce and development of the Dominion . . . and of its vast potentialities for future service. Standing as we are at the begin* ningpf an upward spring in business generally, renewed and enlarged opportunities to use transportation facilities present themselves. The C. N.

Paint Prices Are Sharply Reduced A sharp reduction in the price of first quality house paint to 13.75 per gallon is announced by the manufacturers of some of Canada's best-known brands of paint, the re­ duction to take effect immediately. In making the announcement, the companies concerned state that the reduction h not justified by any change in market conditions or man­ ufacturing costs. They point out, however, that during the past few years many householders have been misled by "bargain” prices into using inferior paint with results that reacted unfavourably on the whole industry. Drastic action was felt to be necetsarry to check a situ­ ation that seriously threatened property values all over the country. The new low price is designed to make it easier for property owners to use first quality paint only, with re­ sulting benefit to property and to the community in general. The companies announcing the reduction are Canada Paint, Inter­ nationa] Varnish, Martin-Senour and Sherwin-Williams.

Canadian Mortality Rate Is Higher The mortality rate among the Canadian industrial classes, contin­ ues higher than last year. For the first seven months of 1935, declare the statisticians of the Metropolitan Life, the cumulative rate is 7.2 per cent above that recorded in 1934. Among the important causes of death, measles, scarlet fever, influ­ enza, cancer, diabetes, diseases of the coronary arteries, (angina pec­ toris), pneumonia, diarrhea and en­ teritis, appendicitis, chronic nephritis and accidents, (excluding automo­ bile fatalities), all recorded increases in rate.

M. Sutherland Conservative’s ChoiceMinister's Name Only On* Proposed At Oxford Convention Heid in Woodstock.The Oxford Conservatives held their convention for the nomination proceedings, last Thursday evening in Woodstock, which lasted but a short time. Dr. Howard Black, president, called for nominations at the opening of the meeting, the name of Hon. D. M. Sutherland being at once proposed by Dr. R. C. West of Woodstock and promptly seconded by John W. Precious, also of the same city. Soreeooe olae moved that nominations close, following which the chairman called the chosen candidate to the platform. Col. Sutherland had been seated in the audience and many of his friends would not have been at all surprised had he not been there because of hospital treatment of an old wound. He received a splendid ovation when he reached the platform, and shook hands with hia colleagues in the House. After outlining several important steps with regard to political work, Dr. Sutherland asked for the support of one and alL “It will be impos­ sible for me to get around and see the people as I have done in the other campaigns," he explained. “If you and your friends and neighbours think the policies I stand for are sound, then 1 think 1 am fair in ask­ ing for your support.” This and That Aslecp-at-the-wheel drivers cause 20,000 accidents a year, more than 30 per cent of them being collisions with other cars.

As a result of their deter­ mination, they took the game by the score of 26-0. Judging from this score one yould think the game was of no interest whatever but it was. Tho local kids worked every kind of a play they have been taught which included squeeze plays, bunt­ ing, double steals and gave the fair crowd which was present a real eye­ ful of what our juniors are going & look like in the course of a few years. While the score would lead one to think that everything .was all sewed up, there were many angles that entered into that triumph. One was the masterful hurling of Payne of the mound for the locals who held the opposition to four scratch hits and struck out in the neighbor­ hood of sixteen batters and he receiv­ ed excellent support. Another fea­ ture of the victory was the terrific clout of young Haycock, one of the recruits who smacked the ball over on the hill through the centre field fence for a beautiful homo run and these things together with other little incidents too numerous to men­ tion gave the fans something to go home talking about. Both teams were of a Bantam age and jwWkethe Aylmer kids did their Teat they were not just there and as a result the Wurkerites had a real field day and learned a lot, to say the least. They are endeavoring to take on a team from Waterloo and if they continue to produce the same brand of ball in this game they are going to attract a nice sized crowd. They are the making of our junior in a short time so 'now is the time to help them out by at> ending their games.

Gleadall of Port Rowan. Rev. W. L. Davidson of St. Paul’s United Church, Tillson- burg officiated. After a short honey­ moon the young couple will be at home to their friends, after Sept. 15th, at their residence. Port Rowan. The most satisfactory material so far discovered for destroying ants, says the Dominion Entomologist, Is sodium fluoride, sold by druggists m the form of a fine white powdelj As sodium fluoride is somewhat pois­ onous, care should be taken to pre­ vent children or domestic pets from gaining access to it. An interesting feature of the past few years is the growth of fruit exports from Empire countries, eaya the Imperial Economic Committee, even when the world total seems more or less stationary or even de­ clining. In 1933 exports of apples from Canada, Australia, and New Zealand^ of citrus fruits from South Africa ' and Palestine; of grapes from South Africa; of raisins and currants from Australia and South ^Africa, and of canned fruit from Canada, Malaya, Australia, and South Africa, were in each case substantially above the average of 1927-31. - .......- - ■ BREVITIESHeard of a man the other day who really enjoyed going to a dentist.

It remains to be s«n wheth­ er the operation will enable her to share the same views as her husband. The air of Autumn is second to none for sweetness. We may not feel the swift-winged lighthearted­ ness that we did in the spring, but there is a fullness in our laughter, a deep fundamental tone in our joy that swings us along the tangled woodland ways with a strength that is untiring. It makes us feel as if a new life is born in us. It has the vigor of Autumn seas and the joy of downward dancing jwaters; it has strange powers and is filled'with dim memories. Taking everything into consider­ ation for the year it is the opinion at many that the Ingersoll baseball clubs did not do so badly this season. It is, of course, regretted that both teams could not go on further in their hunt for the honors, but there is always someone better and in this sport that slogan proved to be no exception. We have, at least, one consolation, and that is the fact that both clubs at least, won their respective group honors which is something. One team in Ingersoll that re­ ceived little recognition was that of the bantams. These young fel­ lows were quite small when compar­ ed with soma of their rivals but they mowed them down as they came up and they made quite a shewing for their age. If they receive proper handling for the next two years they will make a fine junior ball team. They seem to know what it is all about now to a certain extent and after that they seem to forget where they are. An editor of a newspaper is re­ ported to have received a letter from a reader and it reads some­ thing like this:—“Please send a few copies of the paper containing the obituary of my aunt. Also publish the enclosed clipping on the marriage of my niece, who lives in Saugerties, And I .wish you would mention in your local column, if it doesn't cost anything, that 1 have two puppies for sale. As my subscription is out, please stop the paper as times are too hard to waste money on newspapers.”—there is a bit of gratitude for you. One of the many features of the Canadian National Exhibition this year -was the display of goods manu- factored by Canadian blind men and women. In the workshops operated by the Canadian National Institute, brooms, whisks, mats, aprons and dresses of the highest quality, are made, and the exhibit did not only show the finished product, but there were blind people giving demonstra­ ti ona of their manufacture. The exhibit of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind occupied a large floor apace in the Electrical and Engineering Building. ♦ • • • Because there is once in a while a person who makes goodness appear painful and even sickening should not make us forget that most men, even sinful men, admire the consist­ ently good life. And when I say consistent I do not mean perfect. , “None are altogether righteous.” And yet, a person can throw the preponderance of his influence with the good. Nor Is the failure to do so an indication that there is not sufficient strength available. There is of course considerable truth in the statement, "the spirit Is willing, but ■the flesh is weak.” Also people should realize that there is spiritual strength available for every thing, that He which had begun a good work in you will perform it. Phil. 1-6.• • • Mora than casual interest has been created by the announcement that the Ontario Department of Educa­ tion will introduce a study in civics in the elementary and secondary schools of the province. Civics, ac­ cording to the dictionary, in the study of relationship of man as a member of society. The study of citizenship hM been too long neg­ lected or at the bort left to spawnod- ic and half-bearted' efforts. It is far more important that we M clti- aens have a sound understanding o< our duties and responsibilities as members of society than it h for U» to bo able to translate Latin verse or solve problems in higher mathe­matics. If the new course pro­motes among the students an interest in the collective life at a community, it will be doing something worth while and which will have an influ­ence on the affairs of the next gen­eration, and its sponsors will have contributed something long needed in the educational life of the province.♦ • • As was expected, Harold Wiison of this town drove his new Little Mias lanada IV through the waters of the Canadian National Exhibition for his second world's title in the same number of years to place him- arit and his mechanic, Miss Lorna Reid in the spolight for motor boat racing for another year, It appear­ ed reasonably safe after Harold took the first two heats that he would come through with flying colors. but his second place victory in the final boat, left no doubt about the matter. Harold .this year, drove his nqw boat which is powered with another Ford V8 motor, the same as the other boat he drove in the races last year. The victory is one that will undoubt­ edly make everyone in the country smile because of the fact that Wil­ son and his courageous mechanic have made it possible for the cham­ pionship to again rest in Canada for the second year in succession. The Ingersoll Bantams played a game of ball last Saturday at the Victoria Park with a team from Ayl­ mer and when the score ,was finally added tip it read something like this—Ingersoll 26, Aylmer 0. That score just about indicates the brand of ball that was played in this par­ ticular game and there was never any doubt as to who had the better team. The locals were very small in size compared to their opponents but that did not worry them the least bit. This Ingersoll aggrega­ tion settled down behind the effect­ ive pitching of Payne on the mound and they hit and fielded like cham­ pions. On one occasion, Haycock, one of the Ingersol recruits, belted one clear over the centre field fence for a home run. They al! hit, and more than that, they knew what they were doing all the time. Every one of them that went to the plate had his orders and they carried them out. If these same kids are kept together for a year or two, or give them three, they are all young, they are going to make one of the finest jun­ ior nines we have ever had. They are now going on to meet some team in Waterloo and if you want to see action—well, this is a good time to see it. Another Chance For Amateurs The amazing success that is atten­ ding Russ Gerow*s contest for ama­ teur song-wriers has had a far reach­ ing effect. In Toronto, Stanley Ru» Gerow, whois contest for ama­ teur sonr-writers is meeting with Maxted is planning a series of week­ ly musical dramas for presentation over a network of Commission sta­ tions, with the hope of encouraging Canadian composers and playwrights. Just what the requirements are have not been made known, but it is expected that the rules will be made I&bllc soon. Up in London, Russ is actually swamped with manuscripts, many of which are really worth-while and indicate that there is much ex­ cellent talent in Canada. So en­ thusiastic has the response been that Ruas has found it necessary to en­ gage Stanley Max ted, Mickey Fran- dl, (former .BBC) star, Jimmie Burn, of the London "Free Press", and Phillip Morris, program' director of CFPL, as ruling judges of the con­ test. Incidentally Ruas has asked us to announce that only manuscripts accompanied by sufficient postage will be returned to the entrants.

Practically all of the flour imported into Haiti is of Canadian origin, but the greater bulk of it being shipped to Haiti thitou^i United States ports ia billed ns a U. S. product. In Trinidad, Wert Indies, whence much of the grapefruit comes to Canada, the planters have to depend solely on rainfall. Grapefruit grown in the United States, in Cali­ fornia and Florida; in Palestine, in Asia, and in Rhodesia, South Africa, is produced under controlled irriga­ tion.

JOHN A HAYCOCK Following an illness of some three months’ duration, the death occurred on Thursday morning, of a former well known resident at Ingersoll, in the person of John A Haycock, nt the home of his son, Jesse Haycock, Victoria street, with whom he had been residing for the past few months. The late Mr. Haycock who was in his 73jd year, had farmed in West Zorra for a number of years prior to coming to Ingersoll in 1910. In 1925 he moved to Thameeford, where he had since resided. While a resident of Ingersoll, deceased had acted as bailiff for a time, and was (Well known and respected. He was a member of the Thamesford Lodge, No. 258, IO.0.F., and of the Thistle Lodge, A. F. and A. M., Embro. Left to mourn his loss are one son, Jesse, Ingersoll and one daugh­ ter, Mrs Elmer Peckham, North Ox­ ford. The Ontario Approved Turkey Breeder’s Asaoc inspection work has been greatly increased with 2,- 000 turkeys eligible for approval in­ spection in 1935 against 682 in 1934. Canada continues to be the chief source of supply of tomato ketchup and sauces to the United Kingdom, increasing her shipment* in the 1935 ■period to 96,857 cases from 89,709 in 1934. The tomato soup trade also ia almost entirely in Canadian hands. The figures of imports of wheat info the Scottish ports of Glasgow and Leith for the first six months of 1935 show that Scotland has taken more Canadian wheat than in the corresponding period of the two pre­ vious years. The shipments of Canadian flour also were greater than for several years previous. Burley Tobacco Burley tobacco growers of the Province of Ontario have submitted Preventing Bee* From Swarming Work done by the Bee Division of the Dominion Experimental Farms has shown that the desire of bees to swarm may be suppressed to ,the minimum by eliminating the exciting causes. This i* done by keeping every colony headed by young and vigorous queens, by pro­ viding sufficient apace for maximum brood production and storage of nectar at all time*, by using only good drawn comb in the brood cham­ bers, and by providing shade for the colonies during the hottest part of the summer or proper ventilation for tba hives. Cleaning the Hen Hou*e At this time of year hen houses should be_ thoroughly cleaned, dis­ infected, and whitewashed. At the poultry Division, Central Experimen­ tal Farm, the following whitewash mixture has been used with good re­ sults: Slake 1-2 bushel of lime with boiling water, strain and add 1 peck of salt, dissolved in warm water. Put 3 pounds of ground rice In boil­ ing water and .boil to a thin part*. Dissolve 1-2 pound of powdered Spanish whiting and 1 pound of dear glue in warm water. Mix all them well together and let stand for aer- eral days. Keep over a portable furnace and apply hot with bruahea. Water For the Poeltry Extremely warm weather often causes heat proetration among poul­ try, therefore an abundant supply of clean, fresh water should ba available to the growing and laying flock. Since water make* up 66 per cent of an egg its use is imperative. Clean water is necessary, not only from the (standpoint of sanitation, but also to help control egg flavour.

MISS NELLIE HEMSWORTH A well-known Ingersoll and Dere­ ham Tofwnship resident passed away in St. Joseph’s Hospital, London, early Friday morning in the person of Miss Nellie Hemsworth, following an illness of three of four weeks. The late Miss Hemsworth, who was 72 years old, was born in Dereham Township, a daughter of the late Patrick and Bridget Hemsworth. The greater part of her life had been spent in Dereham and Ingersoll districts, where she was held in the highest esteem by all with whom she came in contact, as also in London and Woodstock, where she hod re­ sided at various times, and her pa*o- ing is deeply regretted. The de­ ceased was a devout member of the Sacred Heart Church. Left to mourn her passing are one brother, Bert Hemsworth, Dereham Township; also two sisters, Mra. Jas. Kirwin, King street west, Ingersoll, and Mra. P. J. Carney of London. The funeral was held on Monday morning, from the residence of her sister, Mra. James Kirwin , King street west, to Sacred Heart Church, the funeral mass was solemn­ ized at. nine o’clock by Rev. Father McMahon. There was a large at­ tendance at the service, which with the many mass cards, bore tribute of respect and sympathy. Interment was made in the-Sacred Heart ceme­ tery. Pallbearers were Messrs.

The schema has the sponsorship of the Essex Growers' Association and the Kent Burley Growers’ Association. The scheme is In many respects similar to the Ontario Flue-Cured Tobacco Marketing Scheme which came into effect in October, 1934. The Local Board under the proposed Bcheme will be made up of represen­ tatives of both the producers and the buyers, the latter being for the moet part the large tobacco manu­ facturers. Copies of the proposed scheme are available on request from the Secretary of the Dominion Marketing Board at Ottawa. Ontario Marketin* Scheme* Honey The Dominion Marketing Board has recently been giving considera­ tion to a scheme to regulate tho marketing of honey produced in Ontario. The scheme has the spon­ sorship of "The Ontario Beekeep­ ers’ Association" and representatives have waited upon the Dominion Marketing Board to explain the mar­ keting conditions which the scheme is intended to improve. The scheme is still subject to further review and amendment by the Dominion Mar­ keting Board. Copies of the proposed scheme are available on request from the Secretary of tho Dominion Market­ ing Board at Ottawa. Those who wish to make representation* with rcepect to the scheme may moke them in writing or may make a re­ quest for a hearing before the Dom­ inion Marketing Board. Rye and Wheat Crept Reports compiled by the Depart­ ment indicate that the average yield of fall rye i* 18:9 bushel* per acre which i* an increase of 3.4 bushels over last year. Early prospect* of a heavy yield for fall wheat, how­ ever, were not sustained owing to extremely warm weather during tbe filling period and considerable dam­ age by rust. The average yield is placed at 23.9 bushels per acrer- which is approximately two bushels under the ten-year average, but considerably higher than the very lew yield of 15.8 buahal* per aero of a year ago. The total crop amounts to 13,265,000 bushel* aa compared with 6,724,000 bushels in 1934 and a ten-year average of 16,666,000 bushels. Tlie acreage harvested thia season was about 130,000 acre* greater than last year. Th* qual­ ity of fall wheat is quite variable, with & con*Iderab]e portion of the grain small and somewhat shrunken. SNAPSHOT CUIlJk Take Children's Pictures Now HOW many members of the Snap­ shot Guild have taken snapshot* this summer of their children? It would be interesting to know for so few parents realise the importance of keeping what might be called a "Memory Album"—fascinating, sto­ ry-telling pictures of their children. The two pictures above are excel­ lent examples of story-telling pic­ tures—the kind you should strive to take tor your "Memory Album." They were taken on just such a day as we hope to have tomorrow—sun­ shine and bright skies. Mother snapped little Billie as he was mak­ ing a vain effort to sweep the front walk while Jane was apparently pleasure-bound with her toy dog and -lolls. Aren't they real story-telling snapshots? Suppose that you want to snap a picture of your little son or daughter playing or "working” in the yard. This La what you should do. First of al) don't try to get the child to pose, for the chances are he will appear in a stiff, onnatural position In tho finished picture. Let him bo- (■ome busily engaged in whatever he is doing and then rather nonchab antly get as near to him aa possible with your camera. If yon bare a box camera you should not be closer than eight feet. Have the camera (If it is of the box type) set at tbe largest "stop” or lens opening and you are ready to “shoot” the minute your child unintentionally or Intention­ ally, If he is a good actor—assn me* an Interesting pose or position. Be sure all of him shows In the finder or else he may appear in the finished print minus MB bead or an arm. Here's another simple precaution. The shutter on a box camera oper­ates at a speed of approximately 1/25 of a second. Th!* Is not fart enough to stop action when the camera Is dose to tbe subject so In taking tfie picture of your child wait until that moment when he is not in motion before snapping the picture for otherwise the image Will be blnrrod. If you have a folding camera with a footage scale you can work as close as six feet to your subject and get a larger Image. Set the diaphragm control pointer at /.It or if It Is quite shady, at f.8. Set the shut ter speed indicator at 1/25 of a second or num­ ber twenty-five. Locate the child In the finder and snap the picture. Don't have the sun striking tbe child in the faro and then expert him not to squint. Let the light come across his face and you will ret Ln- tererttng shadows and show his fea­ture* much better. And there’ll be no winintlng.

A* they w»i«ed the door opened and Mr. Trumbull reappeared But 'he WU alone, * different man from the »hrewd, vigilant attorney who. only * brief time before, had left the office. He had difficulty finding hi* tongue. "Good God, come quickly, all of you!” he managed to ga«P out. ”1 don't know wbat's the trouble, but lomething n seriously wrong m there . . . I .. .”He grasped the back of his chair to-xupport himself, and Mr. Dawson cut in shaqjly.‘Something wrong. Mr. Trumbull? What do you mean—what’s the matter?”Allen Rowland was the first to tpring to his feet."What’s happened, Trumbull?” he demanded, ID a voice filled with anx­iety, “Mr*. Keith’s all right, isn’t she? There’s no reason to worry about her?”The other shook his head solemn­ ly. "I’m afraid she's very ill, Row­land. She’s unconscious—completely out; she shows no animation and I can’t get any reaction or rouse her. And she looks dreadfully white, ... We had all better hurry." Hi* excitement and agitation con­veyed themselves to his listeners, as they hastened from the office. In hi« concern, Mr. Rowland pushed ahead, the lawyer immediately behind, Mr. Dawson came next. Mr. Willard made way for his titter, in whose eyes gleamed a light, had it been observed, that suggested an emotion more powerful than mere interest; while his own lips curved in a smirk. In this order, they all passed through the chamber adjoining Mr. Dawson's office, an anteroom into which his door opened. It was also the law library of the concern. Two other doors led from the library, the one in the left wall, opposite the ■windows, into the main office of the suite, wh^c the employees—stenog­ raphers, "epbone operator and taw clerks—worked. The second door opened directly across from Mr, Dawson's. It was ajar, and, led by Rowland, the group crowded through it into (till another office. It contained a dark oak table, oak chairs with leather seats, and a plain, dull green carpet. From the hall, the inscrip­tion read, "1505. Law Offices, Daw­son, MacQuire St Locke. Entrance at 1507.” A woman sat in the swivel cha*r, but in a peculiar position that promptly revealed something was wrong. She stumped rather than rested in it, her weight pushing it back on its pivot. Her bead, barely protruding above the rear support, was thrown back as against a cush­ion, so that she stared at the ceiling. Her left leg stretched out straight, while the right one was bent at the knee, drawn against her body. Her mouth was open, but strained and thin, rather than loose, in a sugges­tion of mortal agony.The sight of the recumbent, mo­tionless figure caused the group to pause on the threshold for an in- atant Anxiety was written in every face, except Mrs. Rowland's."First I thought she had just fallen asleep," Mr. Trumbull re­marked, "I spoke to her, and when »he didn't respond, I tried to waken her. Then I discovered that . . .•he wasn’t welt.""But what ia it? What'a the mat­ter with her?” the clerk queried breathlessly. "She looka so strange —so pale and stiff.”In Iwo quick atrides Allen Row­land creased to the swivel chair. He placed trembling hands on Mr*. Keith's shoulders.HI* vtiee sounded tense and ap- pdled. "Barter*I What it it, Bar­bara? Answer me. . . Receiving no reply, he recoiled visibly, lookine up In distress.

Cap­tain Thomai took the menage and relayed the aaxignment to Rankin. The detective had juat reached the Bureau with the completed report of hia moxt recent case, an investi­gation of the gem robbery at the aristocratic Wentworth home in Mount Airy."Here’s a new job for you. Tom­my.” The captain informed Rankin. "It was old Henry Dawson himself who phoned, and he was worried; "It's good of you to be so prompt I'm Dawton—Henry Dawson. I think we hid better step into ths library, where we'll have greates privacy."The detective posted his two uni­formed men at the main door, 1507; then ordering Jenks to remain out­side st well, he followed the lawyer into the library. Two other ma awaited them there. Mr. Dawson introduced them. "This is Mr. Simpkins, clerk of Common Pleas Court, Number Three. Dr. Samuel Clark, whose offices are on the twelfth floor of this budding; we wnunooed him imme­diately. although it was too late for medical aid. Mr.—””Rankin, Thomas Rankin,” ths He shook hi* head. ‘'She isn't jurt Hl or imcociscio tn; tte’t already dead." The lawver followed him to the woman's aide, grim lines of worry changing the more genial aspects of his countenance. He took her righi wrist, and M he felt for her pulse, he became ■ till more grave and seri- agreed, after a moment af utter stifi- mai, painful and pregnant, “but I fear it’t too late to do anything for her." He- shook his head. ’’She bn't Jo* I Ui or uaconseioui: tbe’t and everyone in the city knowi his repetition for keeping hii head in almoit *ny cruis.""S*y, captain, why don’t you let some one else handle it?” Rankin protested, without too much empha­ils. Tve just finished a puzzling one and I guess I deserve i vaca­tion." He snrugged in comic help­lessness. "Ob well, I suppose it’s ; all in a day’s work, Thomas. Where . do I gor” Primarily because of hi* youth, he : fitted in few respects the typical conception of a detective. Only thirty, he looked twenty-five In appearance considered handsome, he had a high I arcbead, surmounted by curly dark brown hair. His lips were thin, and usually set together beneath sensitive nostrils; he had a determined chin and dark, piercing eyes, constantly alert. He was broad-shouldered, of medium height, and powerfully built.As usual, when the captain knew Rankin was about to undertake a fresh inquiry, he could not resist hi* customary quip."Who would you like along with you in this case, Tommy?” he in­quired, his smile thinly veiled. You’ll probably need plenty of help before this business is over." For he was aware that ordinarily it was Rankin's policy to work as a Ione wolf. He preferred to have exclusive charge of an assignment, even of its rountine features, until compelled by its complications to enlist outside aid.Recognizing the captain's jibe, Rankin grinned, but his reply brought a stare of amazement to his colleague's stout features"You're probably right, captain,” ' he said; "that’s why I think 1’11 lug Jenkins along, and a couple of cops."He collected Jenks and two uni­formed officers and set out. Rankin located on the directory board the firm of Dawson, M»cQuire& Locke; and they boarded an express eleva­tor to the fifteenth floor.The offices they sought were di­rectly opposite the ca<e. a* they stepped from it. Three door* fronted the corridor, marked respec­tively 1WS, 1567 and 1SOT; and the glazed front of 1509 also iattnicted visitor* to enter at 1507, the central door.Entering the main office of the firm, 1507, the detective and his companion* at once realized the sub­stantial the and prosperity of the lawyer*’ practice- Several people waited in the chair* Hoed against the- inner wall, on both sides of the door. Six desks were arranged behind the rail, with a* many employees— stenographers, law clerk* and stu­ dent*. But extraordinarily enough, ' no one worked, nor was the usual clatter of typewriter* heard. They all watched Ine new arrival* silently, with bated breaths, from which Rankin sensed their anxiety and sus- ponse He noted all details before an elderiy man came forwird and greeted him in obvious relief."You’ve come from Headquarters, of court*?” He extended hi* hand. detective supplied, and shook hands. "Glad to meet you. Then it is a matter of death, requiring the atten­tion of the police?1 Gravely nodding, the lawyer pro­ceeded to explain. “I regret it’s quite serious enough for that. Brief­ ly, here » the situation. I have been holding a series of hearings in a divorce action in my office, in ■ contested case. This afternoon, the first testimony for the defense to prevent the granting of the divorce was to be presented. The complain­ing party offered soma opposition to the introduction of Mrs. Barbara Keith, the first witness for the de­fense. And when Mr. Trumbull, counsel for the defendant, went to bring her in, he found she was dead. . . . There are indications that her death was neither normal nor aca- dental.”Rankin's eyes widened in interest and he asked sharply:"Not normal? That leaves only murder or suicide? Where was she when the died, Mr. Dawson?"The lawyer inclined hit head to­ward the door leading from the library into ISOS, adjoining."In that office.” he replied, "where, I understand, she wat wait­ ing until the would be called to give her testimony. On being Informed by Mr. Trumbull of hit discovery, we entered and naturally assumed she had suffered a stroke or heart attack or something of that sort. But Dr. Clark'* examination sug- "I believe she was chloroformed to death," the physician volunteered.Rankin focused a penetrating gaze on the doctor. "Chloroform, ’Dr, Clark? Are you positive of that? Whitt evidence supports your diagnosis?""The woman’s eyes were dilated, which it a dependable sign of death by some such irregular means," Dr. Clark returned. "I've had no oppor­tunity to examine her blood, but I don’t doubt it wilt be darkish and fluid. In addition, there are red some one had had a powerful grip on them.”"Then your opinion of what oc­curred is that some one seized her and forcibly administered chloro­form through her nose until she succumbed.” The physician nodded. “Yes. the symptoms, her position, pushed back like that in the chair, and the rough handling she must have re­ceived aji point to it.” “Well, unless .more than one per­son was concerned," Rankin com­mented, "a man was probablv re- spotwibk. Dr. Clark, how quickly does chloroform act to prove fatal?” "The time Is uncertain, and vanes with the person," the other responded; "perhaps two minutes, and at most, a few seconds longer than that On the other hand, it might kill in even Jess time than a minute.

A Good Timo To Raiso a Foal According to the Dominion Ani­ mal Husbandman there is at present a definite scarcity of good, fresh, young horses for farm and city work and an increasing demand for them at fairly remunerative and generally Increasing prices. Since It takes four or five years to breed, raise and develop a horse to marketable age, it will be some time before the de­ mand can be satisfied, therefore pre­ sent prices may be expected to hold or even improve for a number of years. It would seem, therefore, that it would be a profitable venture for any farmer who has a reasonably good draft brood mare, that he can spare from heavy work, to bread her and raise a foal. tion added to the bran and Paris green.

This order to become effective on and after August 31st, 1935, Potatoes A» Stock-Feed When the true value of potatoes as feed for live stock and poultry is realized, much larger quantities than at present employed ,will be used.With high prices for stock and poultry feeds and a surplus of potatoes have a good opportunity to raisers near the plentiful supplies of potatoes havea good opportunity to reduce their feed bills by feeding potatoes. Other countries make much use of potatoes as stock-feed. In Germany, for instance, only 30 per cent of the total potato crop ia used for table purposes, and approx­ imately 40 per cent lor stock feed ing. On the other hand, in Canada 64.5 per cent of the crop finds its way to the table and only about 11 per cent for stock feeding. Stock raisers would be well advised to in­ form themselves on the proper meth­ ods of feeding potatoes in the ra­ tions to ensure the best results. In brief, potatoes are in fact “watered" carbohydrate concentrates. They may be used therefore, as a substi­ tute for barley and corn, aa in the rations of pigg, in whkh ease it is important to bear In mind that four pounds of potatoes are equal to one pound of cereal meal. Catworm Control Although the fanner knows much about the matter, the amateur gar­ dener little suspects that long be­ fore he sows ha highly prized aeeds an enemy haa been waiting in prepar­ ation for immediate asaault.

The Dominion govern­ ment realizing the importance of a continuous policy in the production and use of good rams are providing liberal assistance so that farmers may buy good rams with confidence at a reasonable cost to the pur­ chaser. The Government is anxious that pure bred breeders of sheep should continue to improve the pure­ bred flocks so that better quality rams and ewes may be produced. Furthermore, it is hoped that as a re­ sult of the use of graded rams on grade flocks throughout the prov­ ince the quality of market lambs will show a marked improvement AI! purebred breeders will be giv­ en an opportunity to make applica­ tion for the Ram Grading Service and the premium which will be paid on graded rams will be as follows: Bonus Payable By Dominion De­ partment of Agriculture on Purchase of: XX Ram Lamb ...................$ XX Yearling Ram ............. XXX Ram Lamh .................. XXX Yearling Ram ...»........ ; I 4.00 6.00 6.00 10.00 These premiums apply only on rams officially graded under the Federal Ram Grading Policy in 1935. Applications for Ram Grading should be mailed to James Telfer, Paris, Ont Hauting Farm Equipment Want of care of farm equipment causes heavy inroads into the oper­ ating coats of a farm and the fact is not always appreciated that a mach­ ine should not be left out in a field or shed unices property protected at all times from the effects of weather. It is not always feasible to afford this sort of protection to machinery on a farm, but a great deal more can be done to prevent deteriora­ tion than is sometimes the case. Machinery requires suitable housing all the year round, if the overhead is to be kept in check, although often in the exigencies of fanning thia is not always an easy matter. In the absence of proper protection from the weather, rust and decay play havoc with the various parts, and careful farmers make it a rule to get machines under cover as soon as pos­sible. These farmers know that stabling for machinery is as neces­ sary as for the livestock. Besides building inexpensive but efficient sheds for their machines, they make it a rule to inspect each machine every day to see that the bearings have beea properly oiled, that the nuts are tight, and the working parts are In alignment and working smoothly. These precautions have saved money, prevented loan through delay, and obviated exasperation and worry. The preaent-day mach­ ine-worked farm really requires to be equipped with a tforge, an anvil, a stock of dies, a drill, a too! grin­ der, and sets of hammera, wrenches, punches and chisels, not to mention a supply of stock repairs for re- plscezbent of parts. Cattle Bloating in Ontario Reports of cattle and honee in the St Homan district suffering from bloating with some cases end­ ing fatally, ware investigated re­ cently by ProfMaor R- G. Knox of the Department of Animal Hus­ bandry, O-A-G, Guelph, and Dr. Mc- (j^ALK ER ^IO R L SJQ M ITI.D PHONE 56 PAY CASH AND BUY FOR LESSINGERSOLL Intosh, Ontario Veterinary College, Guelph, accompanied by F. S. Thom­ as, agricultural representative for Elgin County. The bloating of the cattie, Professor Knox stated is prob­ ably due to a change of diet, cattle that were on dry feed being turned on lush pasture. The condition that has caused cattle to chew bones and wood meal also has some bearing on the bloating, he stated. Dr. McIntosh said that the chew­ ing of bones and wood occurs as a result of deficiencies in the diet, in this particular instance phosphor­ us is the deficient one. The animals most frequently affected are young, milking cow*. The condition usu­ ally manifests itself in the spring when cattle are first turned out to grass at the conclusion of a long stable-feeding period. Hay and grains grown in year* of drought such as occurred last year, are quite deficient in phospboma and consequently animals may crave for this element, he said. Dr. McIntosh advised local farm- era who have reported cattie with depraved appetites, to correct the condition by the addition of bran, oil cake or soybean meal to the grain rations. ^SNAPSHOT CUILI Get In the Picture Yourself You too can get In the pic­ ture if you use the self timer. "T ENJOYED the Snapshot Guild A article last week very much, for taking snapshots of ray children is almost a hobby with me," wrote a reader. "I was hoping, however, that you would tell mothers how to In­ clude themselves In the picture with their children,’' eho continued. Perhaps others are interested In this subject The self timer is a most fascinating little gadget and almost human tn Its operation. It Is an inex­ pensive accessory that fits over the metal button or plunger, at the end ot the cable release, which you press to take a snapshot with a fold­ ing camera. It cannot however, be used unless the camera la fitted with a cable release. Here is how it works. Flrat you lo­ cate your subject tn the finder and at the same time plan the space you will occupy when you step into the picture. Suppose you want to take a picture of Jane sitting In your lap u you read to her. You will have to have the camera on a tripod, tabla or something solid. Locate the chair In the finder-—and be sure you can see all of the chair, espe­cially the upper part of the back where your head will appear—for if you are not careful you will find you have decapitated yourself when the finished prints are returned. If the picture Is to be taken in­doo ra you win have to apply all the rules of indoor snapshooting. Ths diaphragm should be set at f.t.3, the shutter speed at either 1/10 or 1/25 of a second and you will need one or two photo flood lamps placed in an ordinary floor lamp (with the shade removed) to give more Illu­ mination to the side away from the outside light When the diaphragm Is set at the proper opening with the correct shutter speed, the same as If you were going to snap the picture yourself, set the self timer for ten seconds or a minute, depend­ ing on how long it will take yon to get Into the chair with Jane com­ fortably seated In your tap, ready to listen to your story. Turn on the photoflood lamp, slip the timer over the button at the end of the cable release, press the little release lever on the self timer and it starts fann­ ing away, and then—dick—it has taken your picture. In spite of the simplicity of the procedure Jane Is going to get a thrill out of It and when the picture I* snapped shell probably be por­ tray! ng ‘ a million dollar smile— and this will add much to the value of the picture. You can purchase the self timer attachment from almost any store that sells camera*. They are not ex­pensive and last a lifetime. Some cameras have self-timers in­ corporated In the shutter so if you have this type of camera and have never used the self-timer you have mined a lot of fun and picture possibilities.

Mention waa also made of the willingness of the Ingersoll Pipe Band to assist the Oxford Rifles in Woodstock at any time that they were needed and Col. Forbes went on to say that the Pipers - had struggled through thick and thin that they might continue to offer their stirring military music for the various celebrations throughout the eurrounding country. In closing he said that he hoped the citizens of Ingersoll would give the Oxford . Rifles in this town any assistance they saw fit, and that if the Oxford Rifles from Woodstock had been of any asaistance in adding to the en­ joyment of the program, he waa glad. One of the outstanding features of the entire program was the perform- »nce of the Ingersoll Pipe Band who were assisted by a number of pipers and drummers from St. Thomas. After the Oxford Rifles had paraded before the crowded grandstand, the Pipers started their parade and upon their arrival before the stand, they were greeted with a tremendous ovation as they marched past in full strength, looking better than ever and received the loudest applause of any performers on the grounds at their every move. The retreat was then presented by the Oxford Rifles which proved very- interesting and the audience never forgot to give the regiment a fine hand for (her efforts. One of the numbers of this presentation that brought a great deal of laughter, was that of the awkward squad. Lined up in front of the stands were about 12 members of the Rifles who went through all the movements showing tho stupidity of the new re­ cruits upon signing up in the army end then to give the crowd a glimpse of the contrast, a special platoon then performed showing the difference after the members been in training for a time, number was a novelty feature thoroughly enjoyed by all. had This and Kenneth Graydon, miniature drummer of Ingersoll, who has per­ formed before crowds at various times, then gave one df his exhibi­ tions of how the first-class drummer should perform and being the popu­ lar little fellow that he is, drew a great hand from the1 crowd. He was followed by another popular Ingersoll performer In the person of W. Langstroth, who created a con­ siderable amount of interest with his baton gymnastics, accompanied by the Norwich Boys’ Band. Then came the time’for the com­ petition of the various bands. This included the four boys' bands from Brantford, Woodstock, Norwich and Tillsonburg. Each band took ite turn in front of the grandstand with their director and played their spec­ ial number from which they were judged. After hearing their numbers and waiting for the judges’ decision, a great display of Scotch dancing was performed on the bandstand.The FOUNTAIN PENS!

Miss Betty Kane of Sarnia, then displayed the Highland Fling. A Scotch medley was then presented by the Misses Gilmore, Kane and the Robertson twins. An Irish jig by Miss Shirley Shoebottom, brought loud applause from the large audi­ ence for hep originality. A Lorene reel was given by Miss Gilmore and the Robertson twins. A tap dance by Kane and the Sailor’s Horn­ pipe by Miss Shoebottom brought this portion of the program to a conclusion. This dancing was ac­ companied on the pipes by Pipe Major Hamilton of St. Thomas. At this time Mayor Wilson announced the band winners .which were as follows:—1st, Norwich Boys’ Band with 77 pointe; 2nd, Brantford Boys’ Band with 67 pointe; 3rd, Tillsonburg Boys’ Band with 64 pointe and the Woodstock Boys’ Band came fourth. Then came the most impressive part at the entire program as the entire company of bands and the Oxford Rifles formed up in front of Board. It was clearly set forth that, the only equipment ueceaanry would be a piano and a blackboard upon which Misa Harrison would carry on her wonk. This work could be carried on in the kinder­ garten room where there is a piano. The matter was left with Mr. Dean who is to take the suggestion up with the members of his special commit­ tee when next they meet. Under the heading of presentation of imports, that of the property committee of the Collegiate Institute read that coal had been placed in the proper place at a cost of $877.30. Chairman Healy gave a detailed re­ port of this committee in which he quoted figures totalling $1337.02, this figure including all the necessary repairs which were attended to dur­ ing the summer months. Chairman Chisholm of the property committee, of the Memorial School, together with Dr. H. B. McKay, moved that the report of this committee be ad­ opted which read that the board purchase a No. 4 Livingstone stoker, a down payment of $100 to be made at installation of same and the sum of $960 be paid at the end of the heating season, if savings had been made as intended. This is stated to be 25% of the cost of the coal if purchased at a reasonable rate, from which the percentage was fig­ ured. Principal Walton of the Memorial School presented his report as did Principal Bole of the Collegiate In­ stitute. In the report of the Mem­ orial School, Miss Cuthbertson asked that she be given the use of the aux­ iliary room for her music classes. In the report as presented by Mr. Bole of the Collegiate, it stated that Don­ ald Wade had secured the scholar­ ship cd the Unversity of Western Ontario. A report from R. Gilling, school attendance officer, was also present­ ed. On motion of Healy and Ruddick, $25 was granted to tho Athletic So­ ciety and $25 to the Library, both of the Collegiate. On motion of Dean and Healy, the salaries of teachers, Mra J. A. McKenzie and Miss Anna Dawes, jwere revised. Mrs. McKenzie’s salary is to read $925 and that of Miss Dawes to read $1110. Chairman David spoke briefly in connection with the appearance of the various schools of the town.. He pointed out that the appearance of the Memorial school was one of great credit, but that of ithe Ward School was one which was in need of atten­ tion and as it appeared at the present time it was no credit to the Board of Education.

Buy t Best Teasamples taken at various points in EMM County from many grower* should be an indication of the stand­ ard of wheat being produced Such testa have been very interfering to wheat producers and the wheat in the growers Cheap Wheat I* No Reason For Planting Poor Seed With the present low prices being paid for wheat in the district there comes a definite inclination to use cheap seed. Very often cheap seed is expensive seed in that it may be mixed or may be a variety not well adapted to the pastry flour trade. Weather conditions such as were ex­ perienced in Southwestern Ontario between harvesting and threshing this season are largely 'beyond hu­ man control, but the type of wheat grown is within our control. Although the bulk of our wheat be­ longs to the class of white winter, the principal variety being Dawson’s Golden Chaff, there axe continued reports that much of our white win­ ter wheat in this district is mixed and that one variety in particular is producing too hard a wheat for pastry purposes,', namely O A. C. No. 104. In addition, there is an ap­ preciable acreage of red winter wheat grown in certain sections. From the trade standpoint, the grow­ ing of an few as possible well adapted varieties la very desirable. Such a practice would place us in a posi­ tion to offer the market a more uni­ form product than we do at present with many varieties of unlike types and qualities being grown, particul­ arly where mixtures occur. A preliminary study of the (wheat produced in the district, this year is being made by the Dominion Exper­ imental Station at Harrow as a re­ sult of the reported mixtures and the variation in quality of'wheat produc­ ed for pastry flour purposes. Some 200 or more samples of wheat are being collected by the Harrow Far­ mers’ Co-Operative Association, Limited, at their various elevators as the wheat fa being delivered by the wfH have an opportunity to inspect thia collection to their own satis- 'faction on a day set aside for thia purpose next summer. The testing of new and standard varieties of winter wheat has been in program on the Harrow Station for a number of year*. These stud­ ies have definitely demonstrated that Dawson’s Golden Chaff will produce equally as good or higher yields than any other ■white or red winter wheat variety under tert that is suitable for the pastry flour trade in this dis­ trict. Dawson’s Golden Chaff has king been recognized as an outstand­ ing variety and tfie high reputation that Ontario pastry flour has attained is undoubtedly due largely to the ex­ tent that this variety has been grown in the province. —Published by authority of the Hon.
