R- A. BOVAY. LARGE SURPLUS PERMITS RE DUCTION IN INSURANCE RATES The Ueborne and Hibbert Mutual Fire Insurance Co. held their annual meeting at Farquhar on Feb. 7th, when the fifty-first annual report was presented. The company have made a steady growth on a solid foundation and they now have close to nine and a half million dollars at risk. The number of policies in force at the close of 1926 was 2496 and the surplus on hand is over $45,000. The losses last year amounted to $5,838.55 the lowest of any year in the history of the company in pro portion to risks. Owing to the large surplus on hand the superintendent of insurance has approved of a re duction in assessment rate from 30c to 20c fox' every $100 of insurance. Messrs. Wm. Brock and Francis Mc Connell were reelected to the Board of Directors. Mr. Jas, Ballantyne, who has been an auditor of the com- eompany for 15 years, resigned and Mr. Andrew Christie was elected along with Mr. John Kay, the for mer auditor. At a meeting of the directors which followed Jas. McKen zie was elected president and Simon Dow, vice-president. Mr. W. A. Turnbull was reappointed secretary treasurer. Essez Crystal Dwarf Sweet Clover It ripens early, generally about the 1st to 6th. of August, thus pro viding an excellent land cleaner pro hibiting weed seeds to ripen with it. The seed is smaller than the com mon Sweet Clover so that it only re quires three fourths as much seed or from 8 to 10 pounds per acre. It is a wonderful seeder producing an acreage of 20 bushels per acre. Tests have proven that this seed will produce a vigorous growth on sand, clay, loam or muck soil. I11 quality of Hay it equals alfalfa with a greatei* yield per acre. It also makes excellent pasturage for dairy or beef cattle, sheep or horses. The stock thrives readily on these fields. In using this Clover vhile still green makes one of the best soil rebuilders when plowed down. This we believe is a valuable addition to the lists of forage plants. The name is derived from Essex County, Sacramento Valley, Califor nia, and the first known crops in the eastern States were produced by the Huron County growers in the win | Thumb of Michigan.

Bovay Of Trenton, Ontario, turned to "Fruit-a- tives” for relief from digestive and liver troubles which were making his life a Burden. *T wish I could tell every sufferer in the world what ‘Fruit-a-tives’ have done for me”—he writes—"For years I was much troubled by bad headaches, nervous dys- jjgpsia and liver trouble.

Now this machine will transplant any plants such as tt----- toes strawberries, etc., or any small bushes or shrubs. It will set plants from 4 to 50 inches apart in rows. It will do as much work in one day as 15 or 20 men. The plant setters are in front of the wheels, therefore avoiding dust and where the driver can watch their work and regulate the speed of the machine according ly. All plants are set at equal' depths, the proper amount of water is applied and the soil packed iirm- ly around the roots. Plants will also mature from 10 to 15 days earlier under this method. This ma chine is used in preference to other makes by experienced growers. Arthur Jones MASSEY-HARRIS AGENT. Dwarf Sweet Clover, except that the Essex Crystal Dwarf Sweet Clover is an earlier ri-pener, it’s color of the plant differs and that it is a larger yielder on all types of soil than other clovers. Essex Crystal Dwarf Clover many outstanding advantages, is about four weeks earlier than common Sweet Clower and much smaller, more branchy and leafier and has finer stems. It sel dom grows over three and a half feet tall. It produces finer hay in large quantities and is a better seed er, yielding as high as 25 bushels per acre on large acreage.

An entertainment and debate was held in the Sodom school house Tuesday evening, The subject for debate was “Resolved that the auto mobile has done more harm than good." The affirmative was taken by Mr. S. Stanlake, Mrs. Gould and Mr. Hilton Ford and the negative by Miss Forrest and Mrs. C. Prouty. The judges gave the decision of three points in favoi’ of the affirma tive, Games and amusements were held and prizes given. An orchestra provided some splendid music. Mr, A. Hooper, of London, filled the chaii’ very capably. A survey is being made of the London Road from Elginfield to Clinton by the Ontario Highways Department with a view to putting down a paved road. ”” ~ J3~'L is about thirty-three surveyors, under ance of Mr. E. reached Exetei* working north, able speculation road will make and pass through Centralia, whether the department will pave the road straight through with a spun’ running into the village. The surveyors are making a survey of both routes and will report to the Department. Another , important question under consideration is the big hill with its winding turns at Lucan. As an alternative to the present treacherous road a survey has been made to cross the ravine and this also will be taken into con sideration by the Department. The cost of the latter proposition will be great, but when it is taken into con sideration the large territory this road will serve and that the route now being mapped out will alto gether likely be the route for all time to come, it seems the logical thing to straighten out the road. This community, which is one of the best agricultural sections in the pro vince, has always suffered because of lack of railway facilities and should -be greatly benefitted by a permanent highway. The hill is the dread of the motorist is avoided whenever possible timid drivers. The cost of • numerous accidents that have ready occurred at this spot would go a long way to meeting the cost of the proposed route across the ravine. Less than a month ago a Clandeboye man was killed owing to an accident over that road. These things ,no doubt will be taken into consideration by the Department. The paved road may not became a reality this year as the government has laid out over five hundred miles of permanent road, a big undertak ing -for one year. However a start has been made and sooner or later a permanent road from Clinton to London will be a reality. WHALEN Mx’. and Mrs, Delbert Morley spent Sunday With Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Morley.
