i&y Doter
There are many reasons for
the price of a motor car.
The car may be built down
~.7':~Tto a selling price. The
price may be forced up to
a profit mark. There may
be weight,: size,.speed,,that
you do- not need.
But the Gray -Dort price is
the lowest price at which
a big;ef lcient organization
can build a fine light car.
The Cray - Dort is built
right first. It is built with
real big car quality and
comfort and appearance.
It is bnitf to give you all
the service you need, free
from trouble. Then by
factory efficiency the price
is kept low. ,. -
Wm. Allis,
So when you buy a Gray -
Dort you are putting every
dollar into real motor car
value. Ride in a Gray -
Dort — then you will see
how greatly cheaper cars
fall short atf t. -rand how
light cars 'higher priced
give you no more or not as
much. '
The touring car is $1245; _tho
Gray -Dort Special—the car with
added refinements and extra.
equipment, is $135 extra; there
Are also a coupe, and a sedan.

"idodt think I can go, Jessie, for 1 just Feel wretched"
4( H, I'm so sorry, for I did so want
you to be there."
"I hate to disappoint you, dear,
but you know how miserable I have been
lately."
"Yes, but I thought you were better."
"So I am some days, and than I just
seem to be as bad as ever again. I get so
weak that I do not feel able to stir."
"What is the trouble ?"
"The doctor says I am anaemic. Ile
says the blood is thin and watery, and I
do not get the good of the food I eat.
Goodness knows I do not eat much, either,
for I have no appetite."
"Why not try Dr. Chase's Nerve Food ?"
"Would that help me,4do you think ?"
I do not see why it should not. You
remember how pale and weak I used to
be. Well, it was nothing else than Dr.
Chase's Nerve Food that cured me. And
I am not looking as though I needed any
medicine now, am I ?"
"If I could only be strong and healthy
like you are, Jessie, I would give any-
thing."
"You ` never will be unless you try, and
I do not think you would be disappointed
with Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. It is not
only my case, but there are so many other
girls we know who have been benefitted
by it."
"Will you get me a box at the drug
store, Jessie, and I will start right in
to -day ? If this will only give me an appe-
tite and make the blood rich and red, so
that I can get some strength and color, I
will be a happy girl."
Dr. Chase's Nerve Food is so gentle in
action, and yet so potent as a restorative,
that it is a great favorite with women of
all ages. It seems to be admirably suited
to the needs of their delicate nervous
systems, and on this account it has come
to be universally used as a means of
restbring vigor and energy to a rundown,
nervous system. 50 cents a ,box, 6 for
$2.75, all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates &
Co., Ltd., Toronto. On every box of the
genuine you will find the polrait and sig-
nature of A..W. Chase, M.D., the famous
Receipt Book author.

N general the conditions making
drains necessary are those where
the gr•avttational or free water
-•-•.s, is either on the surface of the
land or so close to the surfaces to
interfere witli the prope; growth of
plant roots. The instances where the
water is lying on the land, such as in
pond holes, sloughs, pockets, swa rr• ps,
etcc., are very common in Ont a ► i.r,
and it is usually an ea=v platter for
these. conditions to be rEmedied.
They may beremedied'..either by.
means -ot' open -ditches or a system
'of tile drains.
Where there Is a large area of low**
lying. land which iso uniformly wet,
succh:as we ;hav-e%In stleesouthwestern
counties, naraeYyont, Essex mid
r,arut)ton, tile drains augmented by
open ditches are used, and some-
times when the wet land is the same
or possibly lower than'the lake level
dikes are constructed an,d pumps in-
stalled to—remove the .water. Other
instances where low-lying and fiat
lands require drainage are tho,ie
which are. occasionally flooded either
during the spring freshets or during
heavy rains. 1f no means has been
provided for this% water to be 'remov-
ed quickly the crops growing on this
land will be killed' out, and thus
cause financial loss to the land
owners.
In the case of underground springs
we have a eonrlition where `'the im-
pervious layer of the subsoil has
caused the underground water to be
blocked and held to such an extent
that it eventually comes to the sur-
face. These can be prevented by hav-
ing a tile .drain put in a short dis-
tance above the springs so that the
water may be eut off and conveyed
to -a proper outlet. •
Another instance is that where
irrigation is being carried on. In
some of the irrigation • districts the
water is fairly ,saturated with alkali
salts. When this water is ttsed for
irrigation it is spread over the land
and eventually is evaporated from
the surface of the soil or from the
leaves of plants and trees by the
sun, the alkali being left on the
surface. This ,alkali accumulates un-
til it becomes se strong as_to prevent
the growth of plants or trees.
To remove this alkali it is necer-
sary to install a system of under -
drains, then thoroughlyfiood the so*l
which is saturated with alkali, .thus
dissolving the alkali and allowing'
the water to pass off through the
drains, thereby removing ,the alkali.
After this has been removed It will
he necessary .to use a greater amount
of water for irrigation of this soil,
and after each irrigation as soon as
the water has been evaporated to
such an extent that the remaining
water is almost saturated with alkali
the free water remaining in the soil
and containing this • saturated solu-
tion of alkali inust.be allowed to run
off through the drains.
Across many Ontario farms we see
small creeks flowing at least part or
the season. In most instances where
this occurs the drain can he placed
parallel to this creek, and except dur-
ing the spring freshets or after very
heavy ' rains the water' -will flow
through this drain, thereby obviatine
the use of the creek. When this
drain is installed the creek banks
could be levelled, and instead of be-
ing a creek with ragged banks and
weeds and small trees growing along-
side, could be converted into a scoop
ditch. Thi.. ditch could be of such a
nature as to allow fartn machinery
to cross back and forth, and would.
take care of the occasional heavy
flows of water.
In all conditions where the ground
water conies within two and a half
feet of the surface of the soil it is
necessary for thisoto he retnovAl in
some manner so that plants may have
proper root growth.—W. R. Scott,
B.S.A., O. A. College, Guelph.
Philosophy of Having a Good Time.
e Take the "t", out of toil and yon
have oil. You can't take the hard
work out of farming as easily as that,
but a Little tun robs it of tnuch of
its drudgery. Good times are the oil
in the toil of agriculture. That is
what a great many sincere persons
overlook who study economics more
than human nature. '
When we attempt to organize a
farmers' association, what is done?
Why right away a, vast amount of
talking is committed anent educa-
tion and improvement. Both are
good, of course, and the farmer, in
corhmon with all humanity, wants to
improve — there's a difference be-
tween improving and being improved_„
—but he's not• always too sure that --
the
the association will effect the im-
provement. -
To begin with, he is often not too
well acquainted with iris rear neigh-
bors—the men in the inside of the
Wren he knows now show themselves
only to kindred spirits. Then after a
hard day's work he is prone to stay
quietly at home in preference to driv-
ing severalmiles to discnss, ander a
smoky lamp, the old problems in
Much the same old way.
but thefe's one thing everyone
wants—a good time. Everyone takes
his recreation in some form — only
there's nothing collective about it;
each goes his own way at his own
time. Really persuade the neighbiags
once 'that they can haves a letter time
at the club meeting than thew can
at home, " and they'll go without
coaxing.
So that seems the logic.,( starting
point. A leader never finds it hard
to get people to- organize for pleaa-
ur+e—to. hay a -good, t i e.
And it legru
is IA great things, too.
As people become kbetter acquainted
mutual respect and confidence de' -
veld --That is the fundamental add
firs step to business co-operation.--
