Dewan, M.L.A. forOxford, in a statement issuedon Wednesday, gives the information that the PrimeMinister and the Minister ofPublic Highways in Ontario,have decided that the Government will not include the Governor’s Road between Thames ford and Woodstock in the provincial highway system. This statement will set at rest the furore that was created locally when the announcement w&- made last week that such a step was under consideration and will, of course, alleviate the necessity of Ingersoll send ing a delegation to protest against the proposal.

GIBSONSPEAKER AT KIWANISTillsonburg Barrister Delivered Interesting Address AtKiwanis Luncheon —— TheRoutine Work of a LawyerWas Fully Described.Emphasizing the fact that courtwork was only a small pait of the business handled by the average lawyer, Donald F. Gibson, Tillson burg, in a very interesting address to members of tbe Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, at their regular weekly lunch eon held in the Ingersoll Inn on Fri day noon, described the routine work of the average member of the legal profession and cited many of the forms of business handled by a lawyer. Kiwanian R. G. -Start pre sided over the meeting and in troduced the speaker. In attend ance at the meeting were four mem bers of the Now Liskardi Kiwanis' Club. William Lickley, one of the members, who is the director of music of that dub, favored the gath ering with several vocal numbers. Mr. Gibson in opening his remarks, declared, “many lawyers deliberate ly avoid litigation, contrary to public conception or the opinion that is popularly held.” The desk work of a lawyer, the writing of letters, set tling estates, drawing up wills, con tracts, in fact, all those sort of things that the average person really could do in a sheer case of necessity, for themselves but seldom do— these are the things that the lawyers de pended most on from the public,” the speaker said, Mr. Gibson made reference to the two main divisions in the law courts, the criminal division and the civil courts He spoke very briefly on the different sections or headings of the courts, in soma cases naming them. In this way he referred to the magistrates and police courts, the higher court of judge and jury from which appeals could be madt (Continued on page 2) Miss Agnes Foster Hostess To Auxiliary There was a large attendance at the regular meeting of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Ingersoll Baptist church held at the home of Miss Agnes Foster, Wellington street, on Thursday evening last.

Falling in at the Collegiate at 1.30 p.m., about ninety strong, the cadets marched from the school to the Arena, headed by members of the Ingersoll Pipe Band and the cadet corps drummers.

PublisherPHONES:—Tribune Office, 13 - Residence, 442A.THURSDAY, MAY 21st, 1936Ingersoll ProtestsRumors recurrent from time to time that the Ontario Department of Highways plan to take over the Governor’s Road, between Woodstock and Tbames- ford, appears to have some foundation at last. A Woodstock dispatch Sf recent date quotes P. M. Dewan, M. L. A., for Oxford, as confirming the fact that the taking over of the road is under serious consideration. Speaking to the press, Mr. Dewan said, “I know the Minister and Deputy Minister were both over the road and were favorably impressed. 1 can only say that they are very seriously consider).ng it. I suppose the idea is to save widening and straightening of that part of No. 2 highway between Woodstock and Thamesford,” This announcement iia not welcome news to the citizens of Ingersoll, particularly the merchants who would be deprived of a considerable amount of tour ist business if the highway was built from Thames- ford to Woodstock and traffic from No, 2 highway diverted away from Ingersoll. At the time No. 2 highway was built, representation was made from Irgersoll to have the road pass through this town, with a result that the highway was so constructed. While the Governor’s Road may be a shorter route between Thamesfond and Woodstock, it ia not even a county road, being under the control of the town ships. It is the northern boundary of North Oxford township, the southern boundary of East Zorra and West Zorra and East Nissouri. Not long ago the county was approached to take tit over but declined, ritall the Government appears to want it and may likely take it over unless objection is raised. A much more feasible suggestion for the Depart ment of Highways than the taking over of the Gov ernor’s Road, would be to make the Hamilton Road between London and Ingersoll a Provincial High way. This is now a comity road and during the past two years has been paved from London to Nilestown. There is also a stretch of pavement, about a mite in length, through the village of Dorchester. This route would serve a more thickly populated area and would not be of a much greater length than the distance between Thamesfond and Woodstock. Such a high way would be a considerable asset to Dorchester and at the same time would bring the tourist traffic through the centre of Ingersoll’s main business sect ion. The road between Ingersoll and Woodstock is only in fair shape at the present time and tins soon nrustt be resurfaced. It would be very little greater expense when the resurfacing is being done to make this nine mile stretch of highway wide enough to carry the traffic that would be fed to it fnom the Hamilton Road and the present No. 2 highway. The Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce is to be com mended on sponsoring a protest, through the Oxford representative in the provincial legislature, to the De- xpartment of Public Highways against the taking over of the Governor’s Road and also in lining up the representatives of Middlesex County, West Oxford and North Dorchester township councils and to urge upon the Department of Highways the taking over the Hamilton Road as a provincial highway instead of the proposed idea of acquiring the Governor’s Road from Thamesford to Woodstock. meet their rasponsibiiLttes to the community by taking out polkriee are unfairly discriminated against.It is no wonder that so many are prepared to “takea chance*’ and avoid the cost of .insurance whenthey are cnabhd to tacapo f<cot free, os they toooften do under present conditions.If motor im-uraneo was compuMry, all driverswould be placed on equal footing ami one of themost serious evils of motoring would >be removed. Asystem which favors the irresponsible cannot beright—and no one with a proper sense of responsibility would object to do what is so obviously the proper thing to do in this matter.” Another angle to this situation was introduced by J. P. Bickell, registrar of motor vehicles for Ontario while addressing the convention of the Eastern Con ference of Motor Vehicle Administrators he'd last week in Phikdelphn. Mr. Bickell held that the financial responsibility plan followed in Ontario is removing irresponsible drivers from its highways and recommended the adoption of this plan in preference to compulsory insurance legislation. Mr. B( cketi said that the plan was adopted in Ontar io after a study disclosed its advantages over the system of compulsory insurance legislation. He pointed out that Massachusetts is the only state em ploying the required insurance statute and in this insurance plan, the knowledge that he ds insured tends to make the driver more careless. He declared that claims in Massachusetts have increased since the law became operative and held that the Ontario plan was much more preferable in that any driver involved in an accident resulting dn damage to person or pro perty must file a statement of responsibility. “If the driver is unabte to do this,” said Mr. Bickell, “his license is suspended, and » revoked if claims are not met” While Mr. BickeU’s plan is most reasonable, it docs not take care of financial loss that may be suffered, as the result of some irresponsible driver crashing into another motor vehicle or person, and even though claims might be slightly increased, there would be a sense of security on the part of the careful driver that should any accident unfortunately occur, there would be insurance to take care of any out-of-pocket expenses resulting from the accident. Extending Rural Hydro It should certainly be gratifying to the citizens of rural Ontario to know that the Ontario Hydro-Electric Power Commission intends to proceed energetically in the extension of its system in the country. Dur ing) the present fiscal year it is expected that addition al lines totalling nearly 400 miles will be constructed. Already more than 3,000 extra contracts have been obtained, one-half of which can be served from exist ing lines. This has been facilitated by the provision of loans for the purchase of electrical equipment for farm use. From every point of view the extension of the Hydro services throughout these communities is to be commended. It not only adds to attractive ness and comfort of the homes, but permits the use of labor-saving machinery both for domestic and farm purposes. Moreover, the greater the consumption of electrical energy there is fin the various areas the greater market there should be for power, with con sequently reduced .prices. This is the age of electri fication and the people in the fanning areas are as much entitled to it as those in the towns and cities.

Winter has gone, the sudden showers of April are past, the heat of summer has not yet arrived and vegetation is prepared to spread with lavish hand ita beauty all about us. The origin of the name of most of the months easy to trace. Not so May. It is generally agreed that it was named for Maia, the Roman goddess of Spring, but there ris also a theory that May is the abbreviated form of Majores and that the month was so called because it was held sacred to the older men as June was dedicated to Juniores or younger men. Originally, May was the third month, but it became fifth when the Romans placed January and Feb ruary at the beginning of the year. It always has bad thirty-one days. Ita special flower is the haw thorn and ita fem the emerald. Since earliest times May has been marked by out door festivities and children have danced about a Maypole for hundreds of years. To-morrow, many schools throughout the British Empire, will observe Empire Day. Special festivities vitjj. programs of interest towards furthering the love zMf the children for the British Empire will be pre sented. Empire Day is observed in the schools the day before May 24th, but as Victoria Day, this year falls on the Sunday, it is necessary that Empire Day be observed on Friday the last school day of the week. Empire Day and Victoria Dayv May 24th are days dear to the hearts of every child. They are the highlights of the monlth for the children but May also means a great deal to grown-ups. It is the time of year for the planting of the garden. Setting out of plants and shrubs. The resumption of golf, tennis nod other rummer r-porti. It is a time of year that rejuvenate! us after the long hand winter and pep ua up to enjoy the warm summer days ahead. Yes, May is truly a month of beauty and one of the most pleasant of the year. NOTES and COMMENTS Pretty soon the fall fair notices will be out. Stop signs are only useful when heeded, whether in health matters or driving the roads or pursuing a wrong train of thought. Stop, look and listen, and then turn back, might often be the correct policy to adopt The latest Paris fashions show an absence of trains for evening gowns as the material is wrapped around the feet of the wearer.

Women’s Auxiliary Held Business Meeting The regular meeting of the Wo men’s Auxiliary of St James’ Angli can Church, was held recently in the Parish hall, with a good turnout of members. Mrs. A. Knights, the president was in charge. The meet ing opened with prayers, the Bible reading and ths W. A. Litany. Mrs. A. G. Watts gave a paper on the life of Bishop Stringer, which proved very interesting. A portion of the study book, “Perils of the Polar Pack,” was read. The greater part of the meeting was given over to the discussion of business and many matters were dealt with in connection with future activities of the organization. The Auxiliary meetings will continue un til the end -of June. At the conclusion of the business period, the members were entertain ed at tea and a social hour enjoyed. DONALD F. GIBSON (Continued from page 1) to a still higher court; the division court, where small accounts are tak en for settlement, the county courts where disputes of more importance are handled and which had more formality and dignity, differing- from the smaller “catch-as-catch-can” div isions. He spoke of the supreme court which had a background of great dignity and formality. Mr. Gibson especially emphasized the formality of the higher courts, stat ing that white many persons did not agree with what i_s called too much red tape and dignity in this court, nevertheless it was felt to be a good thing. The speaker said that in many cases, where a man would “lie like a trouper” when confronted with the court of great dignity and formality that attends it, he would often come out with the troth. “Com pared with other lands, the law courts of Ontario hold a very high place in the administration of - jus tice,” said the speaker. Mr. Gibson paid special tribute to his fellow-workers in the profession in Ingersoll, and also made a pleas ing reference to the esteem in which he held the police magistrates and administrators of the law in Ontario. “They are doing good work,” he said, “and if sometimes they are badly criticized, we may take it that this cornea from an instance where the details have been too thoroughly looked into for the comfort of offend ing parties." Mr. Gibson referred to the import ance of a person making n will. He explained that a will is no orna ment but an obrolute neceaoity re. far as the man with property is con cerned. The average man doe*i not know Cm lo.n of time that is cmz ed by the failure ofl people to have wills. There haa been much heart ncho and many pitiful outcome) riraply because people did not think it necessary to make a wifi. Toomany have toft this matter until itis too late and many would have regretted this tf they could only-haveknown the result of their neg feet,said Mr. Gibson.Mr. Gibeon referred to the trustthat the average citizen reposes inhis lawyer“It is amazing,” he eaid, “just howmuch confidence people place in us,and it is a credit to the profraeion that only once in a great while we see the regrettable appropriation of funds that do not belong to us, such as is before us in the headlines of our newspapers at this present time. Surely, the great majority of the profession must be honest and square in their dealings, or the vast trust would not be there as it is today. We are very jealous and proud of this reputation and this trust,” continued Mr. Gibson, “and I must say ♦hat this case I have just referred to is unthinkable and deserves the highest punishment. When such a great trust and confidence is reposed in us, the majority of us at least, want to earnestly live up to it. “On the other hand, the amount of faith that is placed in us in cases where money is left ;without any definite knowledge on the part of the client or heirs to the estate, is some times the means of a real temptation to the lawyers. How tasy it would be in many cases to quietly take funds that the person in question knows nothing about and use them for our own needs or gratifications. In some cases, this laxness or lack of knowledge on the part of clients or heirs may easily account for the lawyer falling to temptation and it is surprising to me that the profess ion stands up under it “It isn’t so much the actual prac tice of law that goes into the making of the successful lawyer, it is psy chology, common sense and ordinary business combination. We are here to help people out of puzzles that they alone cannot unravel,” Mr. Gibson de clared, and concluded his remarks by saying, “it is a lawyer’s job to help you receive justice if you unfor tunately are summoned to court and to help you solve complicated prob lems other than the ordinary, every day matters of business, also to ad vise you in the drawing up of con tracts, as well as other legal docu ments that are too important to be drafted without the competent advice of a member of the legal profession.” The thanks of the club to the speaker for his very fine address were ably extended by Kiwanian J.

Insure Yourself Against Loss on the Road IMPERIAL BANK OF CANADA HEAD OFFICE-TORONTO “Crown Brand” Corn Syrup Offers Free Baseball Book . Just off the press is a new booklet entitled “Baseball and How To Play It,” written by Frank “Shag” Shaughnessy, one of Canada’s best known sportsmen, and manager of the Montreal "Royals”—test year’s International League pennant win ners. It is a book that will be enjoyed by all lovers of baseball, old or young, and to younger players es pecially the hints contained therein should be of special interest and value. In simple, direct and inter esting style, "Shag” analyzes his favorite game, telling how each posi tion should be played, with illustra tions to help make every point clearly understood. The section dealing with the art of pitching will be of great help to young pitchers, as the proper meth ods of throwing every curve as well as the "knuckle ball” and the “fast one” are explained in detail. The chapter on batting contains many valuable tips that should assist al most any player to an improved bat ting average. “Shag” also gives many helpful hints on base-running, although he admits that since the arrival of the “lively ball” this part of baseball has been much neglected, and gives as instances of its decline, the cases of Hank Laeber of the New York Giants and Rip Collins of the St 'Louis Cardinals, who played the entire season lost year without stealing a single base. The book is illustrated—in addit ion to the pictures showing the differ ent plays—with pictures of ths Montreal "Royals'* and Toronto “Maple Leafs,” as well as pictures of some of the “adi-tteae greats’” of baseball A brief resume of the Rules of Ba oball is included, as well as a special talk on training and diet, which will be valuable to all ath letes.

It is understood there will be wrestling held in Ingersoll each Fri day evening at the Thayer Arena. If the calibre of wrestlers is as good each week as the opening night, the mat attractions should prove a suc cess locally, for there was a very good turnout on Friday despite the many counter-attractions and unfav orable weather. All three bouts were, to say the least, quite enter taining and the main bout between Haart and Szabo was as thrilling as anyone could wish to see.

Each home club will be asked to attend to the distribution of these ballots at their first home game on or after May 30. Chibs will be asked to make an effort to have as many ballots as possible returnable at the gate immediately after the game, and to make some arrange ment, for collection of those which are not filled in by the fans during the game. The ballot will call for the selection of a battery and one fielder and selection in each case will be confined to the team in whose town the balloting is taking piece. Likewise sports writers in each Intercounty town will be asked to make their own indvidual all-star selection from among the clubs in their half of the Intercounty. The sports writers’ vote is for a team of 15 men, including three pitchers, two catchers, five infielders, four outfield ers, and one utility. The two teams which are finally selected will represent western and eastern sections of the Intercounty, which has been divided for this pur pose, as follows: West—Senior, London, St. Thom as-Aylmer, Stratford; Intermediate B, Ingersoll, Tillsonburg, Simcoe, Hagersville, Stratford; Intermediate C. , St. Marys, Woodstock, Strafford- Na-Way Groceteria Right on the Market Our Regular Price on CROWN BRAND SYRUP Small.............................17e 5 Lb.

R. G. Start, a member of the com mittee in charge of the arranging for a delegation, was present and explained that the committee sought the aid of the council in regard to taking care of the expense of the del egation to Toronto. It was explained that there had been a change made in the previous arrangements as it was felt that a smaller delegation could accomplish as much as the large one which had been suggested at the meeting held on Friday last. Councillor Morrison in speaking of the delegation stated that while he had been unable to attend the meeting on Friday, ho had, however, spoken to a number of those who had been there and others who were of the opinion that a smaller dele gation would be more successful. After conversing with several citi zens of the town, he explained, that he took it upon himself to get in touch with the Copeland family with regard to this question and here, he declared, he found ready co-opera tion. While Councillor Morrison’s move was found to be quite satisfac tory, to members of the council, Mayor Patearson held that this action was not in accord with the plans aa set forth at the meeting on Friday. The matter was discussed at some length and was left in abeyance with W. R. Marshall to get in touch with the committee and arrange for another meeting when the question will be definitely settled. The Liquor Control Board wrote to the council, drawing attention to the fact that if the members of the local police force had been changed since 1927 to enforce the L.C.A., it would be necessary to pass a new by-law. The Ingersoll Chamber of Com merce wrote, asking for permission to use Memorial Park for a joint picnic with the Junior Fanners on June 17th, and requesting a grant of $10 from the council.’ Members of the council'were invited to attend. The report of the finance commit tee recommended that $340 be paid to the Mother’s Allowance Commis sion and that the sum of $4,000 be placed to the credit of the Board of Education. The report also recom mended that permission be granted the Chamber of Commerce to have the privileges of Memorial Park as requested and that a grant of $10 be made towards the expense of the picnic. In this report, the sum of $25 was set forth a; a fee for wrest ling matches to be held in Ingersoll for a period of six month s and that this amount be paid in advance. Other committee reports recommend ed the payment of accounts. Uncker the head of inquiries, Councillor Edmonds asked if any thing had been done with regard to placing a drinking fountain at the corner of Thames and King streets. Chairman Morrison of the fire, water and light committee, explained that while -he was quite aware of the fact that this matter came under his com mittee, he explained that there had been some misunderstanding but he assured the members of the council that the matter would be attended Dr. J. M. Rogers, left Ingersoll last week for New York City, from where he -tailed on Saturday on the S. S. “Geoigic” for Ireland on what fa known aa a medical tour of Europe under the auspices of the Interstate Medical Association of the United States and Canada. Dr. Charles Mayo of Rochester, Minne seta, to the president of the Inter state Medical Association. The duration of the medical tour will be two montbs. During this time those making the tour will visit hos pitals in Dublin, Belfast, Glasgow, Edinburgh, London, Amsterdam, Frankfort, Zurich, Lucerne, Paris, Berlin and Vienna. Clinics will be held at the various hospitals In the mornings and in the afternoons there will be sight seeing side trip, to many points of intere* t During his absence from IngOTSK>ll, Dr. J.

It was held by Mayor Paterson that it was time that something 1» done in this matter. It was left for-further discussion at the next committee meeting. The question of parking waa also introduced. Councillor Keetle ex town for about a year, coming here from London. He Is a member of the choir of SL Jame-’ AnpUcun Church, and while in London sang in the choir of St. Paul’s Cathedral, and was also a member of the Lon don Male Choir.

Itfa the intention of the council to relieve the congested condition thatoccurs on Thames street Saturdaynights by setting a time limit foeparking.Councillor Murray asked if any members of the council had heard the rumor that the government would turn over a portion of Bell street for the town to maintain. Councillor Weir said that P, M. Dewan, M.L.A. for Oxford, had mentioned the mat ter to him and had stated that -uch would be the case. Councillor Mur ray intimated that there had been talk of the government deciding to assume 50 per cent of the mainten ance cost of streets that were high ways through municipalities. The matter of garbage collection and disposal, as introduced at the last council meeting by the chairman of the Board of Health, was brought up by Councillor Adams, who held that the board of health chairman was apparently more interested in a sy stem of collection, than with the mat ter of disposal. This was briefly discussed and left in abeyance until a committee meeting when the Board of Health will be invited to meet with the council to further discuss the matter. On motion of Councillors Kestle and Morrison, a by-law was intro duced and passed appointing the chief of police and his assistants, officers to enforce the Liquor Control Act. Oddities Of Playing Cards It has been left for a correspon dent of a well-known paper to point out that the club suit of cards “fa the only one in which the royalties together possess six eyes” (the knave being counted, for this purpose, as a royalty). All the others have no more than five. It is perhaps a matter of gallantry that the Queens are the only figures who always get their full set of eyes: the Kings have only seven among them, and the Knaves eix. The Knaves, on the other band, have a monopoly of symmetry, for two look to the right and two to the left, whereas both Kings and Queens ere “eyes left” in the proportions of three to one. Little matters like these emphasize the fact of the (invisibility of the familiar. How many people play bridge regularly, and would yet be puzzled to answer this examination paper, "unseen”? (1) Which King shows only half his face? (2) How many jewels are there in the royal crown? (3) What do the Queens carry in their hands? (4) Which King has two hands? (5) Which King carries the orb? (6) Which Knave fa threatened with an axe? (7) Which King has a moustache that does not curl? (8) Which King wears ermine? (9) Which Knave has a W on his shoulder? The style of all cards is emphat ically Tudor. The King of Hearts is said to show Henry VIH in his proper robes, and the Queen is a picture of Elizabeth of York, wife of Henry VJL But the ladies, as a whole, are an insipid lot. The kingly attitude fa one of authority rather than bonhomie. The Knaves offer more variety of types, but they are uniformly poor creatures— as knave;. should -be. The practice of duplicating the figures, so as to be equally intelligible from either side, is comparatively modern: it would be intererting t<» know the earlier picture gave fuller details of costume.

"Volcano,” has the same abun dance of the spirit of adventure and romance that we find in most of Mr. Robert’s novels. “She Travelled Alone in Spain,” by Nina Murdock, Toronto, Ryerson, $2.50. Nina Murdock, who, is an Austral ian journalist, tells her adventures when she impetuously went to Spain by herself. Her experiences are both interest ing and amusing. We read of dan cing gypsies, strange food, mule rides and old Spanish courting cus toms. We get an intimate picture of the home life in town and coun try, for the author mingles freely with the Spanish people as she trav els throughout their fascinating land. The illustrations by Victor Mac- Clure, better known writer of detect ive fiction, add greatly to the in terest of the book. In the Juvenile section, there is a new book, ’The Freedom of the Garden,” .by Susan Buchan, now Lady Tweedsmuir.

The selection for vigour and for those desirable qualification* tha‘ conform to the breed is compara tively simple, because these are mostly visible characters and can be chosen by comparison- Vigour is evident by the carriage, desirable body weight for age and breed, health and bloom of feather, and good bone formation.

Weekly Crop Report Fall wheat and meadows made wonderful growth during the early part of May, which was featured by exceptionally high temperatures and plent}' of sunshine. Spraying of or chards was carried on throughout the fruit growing districts, as th** bloom came on very rapidly. A great amount of spring seeding was accomplished during this period and all kinds of garden crops transplant ed. For -instance in Lincoln County in one district alone there will be over 300,000 transplanted beets. Clover crops have also come along rapidly and 'it is safe to say that crops generally never looked more promising at this time of year. Down in Frontenac County many farmers are complaining of heavy attacks of the flea bettie, injuring both vegetables in the field and in the hot beds. Seed cleaning plants were running at full capacity and there has been a keen demand for commercial fertilizers. Lime Not a Fertilizer Strictly speaking, lime in any of • its forms, is not a fertilizer, but rather belongs to the class of soil amendments. It does not contain any of the 3 essential plant foods; nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. Its main element <is calcium which is required in relatively small quanti ties for plant growth and most soils contain sufficient of it naturally. An abundance of Ihne is harmful to grass, 'bulbs such as gladiolus, po tatoes and numerous other plants which thrive best in an acid or mildly acid soil condition. On the other hand it is helpful to the legumes, such as the clovers, peas, including sweet peas, asparagus and some other crops which soil acidity harms, The main use of lime, therefore, is in correcting soil acidity and im proving the physical condition of heavy clay soils. It does the latter by its action on the substances that cause the clays to become sticky and bake hard. Lime should therefore be used rather as a soil amendment and not primarily as a fertiliser. should be used instead of a toothed implement. Combatting Cutworm From the viewpoint of the gard ener and the vegetable grower, cut worms ar*- among thp most import ant insects to be combated. They do an immense amount of damage annually especially in the spring and early summer when the plants are young. The type of injury caused by these maecta varies con siderably with the species responsible for the damage. Most commonly cutworms whale feeding at the ground level cut through the stem of the plant, causing it to fall over and eventually die. Climbing cue worms ascend the plant and feed on the foliage, while other species at tack the root system. Most cutworms are nocturnal in habit, hiding in the soil by day and emerging in the even ing to feast upon -their favorite kind of plant Under garden conditions, cut worms can be controlled by a poison ed bait which is broadcast over the soil either before the seeds are planted or prior to the setting out of the young plants. The bait is composed of the following ingred ients—bran, 20 lbs.; molasses, 1 quart; paris green, 1-2 pound; and water about 2 1-2 gallons. In mak ing the bait the dry ingredient} should be mixed thoroughly first of all. The molasses is then stirred in to the water and this solution added to the bran and the paris green. In mixing the bait, add only enough water to make the material the con sistency of wet sawdust. It must not be made sloppy but so that it will crumble in the hands and slip through the fingers easily. In Eastern Canada, the bait should be spread evenly and thinly over the surface of the ground a few days before seeding or trans planting. It is important that this should be done dn the evening and only following a warm day, since if the night is cold little feeding will take place and the bait will be wast ed. If the plants are already in the garden, a teaspoonful of the bait around the base of each ptant in the evening will give good results.

They were as fol lows: 1. The use of a road scraper on a frosty morning; 2; the use of a heavy beam about 8 to 10 feet long drawn across the field; 3, the use of a broad heavy hoe (one man can sometimes cut two acres a day with this tool); 4, in some cases a mower may be used. The corn should be cut when dry and burned the same day. A numben of suggestions were made regarding the treatment of corn stubble; It was agreed that stubble over 4 inches long ought to be crushed or broken off before ploughing. A planker or leveler was suggested for this purpose; it was admitted that a disk run over the ro^s twice might do the job and, in May, when the roots are rotten, a harrow turned upside down nnd run both ways over the stubble will drag almost all of it out Suggestions re ploughing were to use a broad bottom plough that will turn a 10 or 12-inch furrow. The furrows should be at least 5 in ches deep, or better, 6 inches deep. The plough should be equipped with a skimmer and a chain, and sometimes also with a number 9 wire 8 to 10 feet long. Ploughing should always be done lengthwise of the rows, and the last round before the stubble row- should be run witbin 2 inches of the stub ble so that on the next round the stubble will fali flat into the furrow.

Gloria wassicker than she had permitted him to realize and it had taken thisbrief flicker of animation at theprospect of going home to show him just how weak she really was. Shewas fragile, bloodless, the life andthe laughter had gone out of her. As a matter’ of fact, he had watched itgo day by day for months and he had tried vainly to check it, butnever before had he appreciated to• what extent she had failed. If anything should happen to her—Donclosed his eyes and refused to face such a thought. Only ten days more,then they would go north to thosegreen fields and cool waters of which she was forever wistfullyspeaking. Ten days wasn't long. This certainly was not a woman’scountry. Least of all was it a country for a lovely, high-bred creaturelike Gloria. But, Don reflected, ithad been this or nothing. Gloria hadbeen willing, nay eager, to marry him, even against her family’s advice, and even though it had meant exile. Nor had she once complained,at least not until today when it wasall over and she could voice her hatred of this life without hurtinghim. That was like her, to fade away, if need be to die by inchesIat his side, without complaint. One thing was sure—without Gloria’s love to strengthen him he Don returned, he forestalled baranxious query by announcing:"McKay’s in some sort of troubleand I’ve got to run out there again.Don’t worry—it’s nothing much.""What kind of trouble?" Gloria’s tired face was suddenly drawn withapprehension.''Some kind of a fishing job—; Pedro didn’t know just what." Fiskcame around the table and kissedhis wife. "Don't fret, and don’t wait up for me. You know how longeverything takes around a well. Imay not get it fixed before morn ing." He smiled reassuringly andplayfully pinched her ear. ‘‘Can’tafford to risk any delay for the sake of a little sleep, eh?” With sinking heart Gloria watchedhim go, for there had been some thing in his voice that belied his Pedro halted the groaning truckand called out something in Sp.miah. cheerful words. This hateful oil business! Its hazards were never end ing; there was a malignant geniusin the wells that took delight inwrecking human plans and killing high hopes, however well founded.Don returned for breakfast, hot the coast; McKay might have theobstruction out before they arrived—in fact, he might get hold of thatbit stem at any moment. That waj the way with fishing jobs.Don maintained this hopeful attitude; in his wife’s presence he con tinued to be cheery, but out at thsHomeatake, where he spent twentyout of every twenty-four hours, hewas anything but optimistic. Norwas he a pleasant person to getalong with. Under ordinary circumstances he would have refusedto be unduly perturbed by the oil game and grappling blindly for a bitstem in the bottonr»of a steel-linedshaft a quarter of a mile deep isslow work at best. Sometimes ittakes weeks. But circumstances were not or dinary. Gloria's heart was set on catching that boat, the days wereslipping past, and Don could no longer blind himself to the truththat she was seriously ill and oughtto ge. And yet there was nobody here he could send with her, norcould he leave until the well wasin. The directors wouldn’t standfor that, even if he could bring himself to do such a thing. It so hap pened—as it usually does happen—that no time in the entire history ofthe company's operations could have been more unpropitious than thepresent for a mishap such as this.The treasury was low, there were bank loans soon to be met! nothingless than big new "production” could avert a serious crisis. If helost the Homestake, the companywas wrecked. Fisk drove his men withoutmercy, but it was maddeningly fu tile work, this blind grappling, thisinterminable experimenting withone device after another. He be came irritable and jumpy; his handsshook when he wiped the stingingsweat out of his eyes; he cursed thedesert aloud when its heat renderedthe work doubly hard. Working on that derrick floor was like workingupon a bed of coals. Every pieceof metal that flesh fell upon was hot enough to blister; the stale waterthat he and his men swilled down their throats was tepid, and even intheir sleep they were thirsty. Fish told his wife grimly one daythat they could not make the boat.She took the announcement much as she would have taken a blow in G ROC E RY | LOBUW GBOCETERUS to.

The mere fact ‘ un his own money and that of hisfriends^vas sunk in the El Centrofield would not have been sufficient to keep him here. Not by anymeans. But with a wife like Gloria, a man couldn’t quit; he couldn’ttolerate failure of any sort.If he and Gloria had been able to get away once in a while it wouldsot have been so bad, but moneyfrom the wells which he had somehow managed to drill had gone intonew equipment, into storage tanks, tank cars, drilling rigs, leases, andthe like; for in order to live at allin this business it had been neces sary to expand, and as a result production had not quite kept pace withexpenditures. It had been the old,heart-breaking story of most so-called successful oil enterprises— just enough encouragement to render it impossible to let go. But thecompany had real holdings now, and with the Homestake making fivethousand barrels a day, yes, or evenone-half that, it would be out of the red in no lime and its stock wouldbe worth a lot. It would be worthso much that Gloria could well afford to give her family the laugh.Something like a million dollars, that’s what it would mean to them.And Homesuke couldn’t miss. ElCentro wasn’t that-kind of a pool.Once inside the limits, a -man wasas safe as if his money were in theBank of England. Ten days more, then New Yorkwith its shops and its lights and itstheaters. He’d show Gloria that hewasn't merely a machine eternallythinking, talking, dreaming, living oil. He’d prove that he was thewildest, the most extravagant, themost devoted lover the world had ever seen. The things he would buyfor her—the love, the tendernesshe'd shower upon her I He’d repay her for the faith and for the courageshe had shown. Ten days morel Gloria ate but little supper thatnight. She attributed her lack of appetite to excitement, to the anticipa tion of leaving, but as a matter oftruth, Francesca, the one servant they could afford, had been morethan usually shiftless that afternoonand the young wife herself had been forced to prepare the meat Anyexertion of late left her upon the ragged edge of utter collapse.Donald’s sympathetic remonstrance was interrupted by old Ped ro, the water man. Pedro halted hisgroaning truck outside the houseand called something in Spanishthat took Fisk away from the Ubleand out into the road. Gloria hadmastered only a few words of thelanguage—this climate robbed women of energy both physical andmental—hence she could not understand what was being said. When and tired and dirty; be began gruffly: "I was afraid of McKay I Hedrooped a tool in the hole.” “What does that mean?""He didn’t set up his joint prop erly, I presume. Anyhow, it meanswe’ve got to fish it out.""Is that a—a long job?" "Not necesarily; depends on howthe stem is cocked and things likethat. We’re going to take a picture of it—you know, lower a soap moldand take an impression. While they’re doing that l*m going to geta few hourr sleep—I haven’t beenoff my feet all night Lord, it’s hot I” Fisk lay on his bed all that morning, and he perspired in his sleep.Meanwhile his wife went on with her packing and her unpacking.There was indeed very little to getready and it was a foolish waste of effort, but she had to do somethingwith her hands and this occupation gave her the same pleasure she hadderived from folding and unfoldingher doll’s clothes for imaginary jour neys. She had loved to play thatgame when she was a tiny girl andshe was becoming very childish of late.Don left again during the most cruel heat of the afternoon; he returned about midnight and Gloriagathered from what he told her that these fishing jobs were tedious atbest and that the crew was gettingalong as well as ^puld be expected. For two days nis nightly reportwas the same. Had the accident occurred earlier, he would have proceeded, upon failure to grapple thetroublesome bit stem, to sidestrack the obstruction, so he explained. Inother words he would have drilledpast it by allowing the second bit to be deflected by the first. Thelost tool was in reality a forty-footsteel shaft standing in the bottomof the hole, and it weighed manyhundreds of pounds. Inasmuch as it was tipped so that its upper endrested against the side of the well,it was not easy to get hold of it. This new drilling would have resulted in a crooked hole fifty orsixty feet deep and-would have leftthe obstructing tool standing upona shelf of rock. By exploding a small shot a few feet below this shelf thelost bit could have been droppedinto the pocket—sidetracked—after which the old shaft could have beencarried on. But Fisk declared he was afraidto attempt this maneuver so doseto ths structure. Other oil men had warned him against doing so. Twicesomething of ths sort had been tried In the El Centro field and In eachinstance a ruined well had resulted. The shots, had seared the rock—dueperhaps to some peculiar characteristic of ths formation. Again he told his wife not to worry; new fishing tools were on the way up from COFFEE \C H A SE U XbLsanBORns A ^/i b LIBBY’S PREPARED n .

She made no sound,there was no expression of gridupon her face, but tears of utter exhaustion were coursing down hercheeks.“Honeyl Honey girl!” her hus band cried in agony. "Don’t take itlike that!" She tried to smile. "I’m so tired,Doni I’ve been planning so. Oh,Don, I haven’t strength left to stand another disappointment I”“Well catch the next boat, sure." ’T’ve been thinking so much aboutthe green grass and the cool watersiI’m so hot—so tiredl” Fisk nodded; his face was working. “I know.
