THE DRY WEATHER,
We rarelyhave weather conditions
less favorable to vegetation than that
of the past couple of weeks -hot dry
days and cold dry • nights. The tem-
perature was,well below freezing sev-
eral nights recently. • 1' Shortage ed
water is putting many to a great
deal of trouble. First the supply of
soft water gave out, and then wells
began . to go dry. This means a great
de.al of extra work for Many families.
Many farmers too are put to a lot
of trouble in, getting water for their
stock. The drought is going to result
in a great falling off in the acreage
of fall whet sown on any land but
sumer falow, and wheat sown on this•.
is --making slow-progr��ver-a-great
part of the western peninsula, the
ground is too dry and h,Lrd for fall
cultivation.
But its hard to .please every body.
The managers of the ' Western Fair,
at London are praying for dry weath-
er, for just vine weekmore.

A • DAY, IN THE CITY
We (that's the editor)-; took a
couple of days off duty last., yveek
and visited ,Toronto. We spenta few
hours •,at the C.N E.,but'these were
not the ' most interesting_ . There's a
great deal '•in a crowded modern city
to interest the- observant dweller Of
town or country, `without the fanfare,
,noise. and humbug of a great Exhibi
tion in full swing: Life- in a great
city is strenuous, and for the mass of
the people it . cannot... be ".happy or
healthful. Give us ' the . town or the
country: '
But we didn't intend to moralize.
We intended - to tell of a few things
which interested us: We had a long
automobile drive •about the city, •one
evening, and in the 'course of it, visi-
ted the Leeside airport. There we
learned that Leeside is not 'a govern-
ment institution as we had formerly
assumed. The whole institutionis
the propertyof the Leeside .Club,
and it ispractically a private • flying
school,
and young men (and,' young;_
worn i too no dobt) may 'here take
iessoxs in flying by aeroplane on the
payment'of what seemed to us sub-
stanti.in fees'=but':we don't remem-\.
ber the price per lesson, nor .per
flight after.
Ig ,one is togo
'permittedup
alone. Quit a number take the course,
however-t'he crashes and sensational
death Awe read about,; evidently hay-
ing demonstrated his ability to handle
a plane by °soloflights,. totalling 50
hours, the student on passing certain'
government -prescribed tests, and ex-
aminations gets a 'certificate 'Which
entitles him to lawfully engage in
"commercial flying." ':'.This ' corres-
ponds somewhat to the license or per-
mit which ,a chauffeur should have.
before carrying' passengers. in the
more humble automobile.
Leeside consists of a large ' open
and level field -200 acres or more.
It is level but not very smooth. At the
south side, across a railway ,on the
south side there : are a number of
large open sheds in which' planes are
stored and repaired --a sort of aer-
oplane garage. ;There is a chief in-
structor with a number of assistants.
The "hanger" or sheds are not open
to the public, but, through the influ-
ence of our companion we were• al-
lowed to visit the place and have a
look at 'a number of large and up-to-
date machines. There was a variety
of makes sizes and names, just as
with cars in a garage.
We had the pleasure of meeting
Mr. Johnston, the chief instructor,
and reputed to be one of the best.
and 'safest airmen in the country.
It leas this- Johnston who a week be-
fore took a professional diver from
Toronto far down the St. Lawrence
River where another diver at work
under 21 feet ^of swift water had be-
eomeentangled so that he could not
be brought to .the surface. The flight
was • made without mishap, the plane
'carrying fivemen and some equip-
ment, but it vas too late, ' or rather -
in vain: The diver who was •entarg-
led under water had become chilled
and had died before ehe was : taken
out.I
A half dozen budding air men were
flying about-takirt off and landing
by way of practice.
Leaving the air port -we drove
through many streets, here and there
encountering `minneature golf courses,
These are dotted all -ever the city.
