He has heard that the local canning factory has not given Rs usually large contracts for the growth of peas. The clover crop has- not as-yet given him satisfactory evidence of abundant growth. ' Then the fine days of last week caused, him to discard his winter -■coat only to have Saturday come with a below-freezing tempera­ ture. He informs us that Mrs. Groundhog contracted a sever© • cold. What makes.matters all the worse, mustard is somewhat ex­ pensive. and the local merchants are not keen to*,give .credit. As .•a consequence Mrs. Groundhog is threatened with pneumonia. Mr. Frank Tyndall, of Hullett lost his barn by fire last week. Mr; Tyn­ dall was having his farm, wired for hydro, the work being done by Mu. E. Cricli. It is supposed a spark from the blow torch may have been the cause. All the stock was re­ moved except some pigs. HOCKEY TEAM EETED A most enjoyabiei euchjr® party, and dance was held in the Forrest­ er’s Hall, Granton, recently.

Never­ theless we’d be doing less thaix our duty if we did not warn our readers against this form of dangerous speculation.’ But there are those, who win! Surefy there are those who have come to sudden affluence by this precarious route. Equally true is it that there are a few odd .millions who have been ruined this self-same line of nonsense. A good many have lost their jobs because they preferred gambling in this way to doing t'he day’s work. Quite as many are in jail be- - cause they .stole, money to buy lottery tickets,—‘ Homes and business ..and farms have ta'kten this slippery path to destruction.

I Bank that dollar before you spend wherewith to hang yoiyself! , * #>?: 9R $ sK SPLENDID Farmers ar© again going forth bo- sow. It takes real courage for a farmer to put in his usual ter-dp this year, as the 1930 crop has not ITeen anything like-absorbed. Still the farmers are sowing and they are to.be congratulated. Persians with Opportunities for observing and who havo nimble lead pencils inform us that prices for what tile farmer sells have fallen off forty-eight per cent, in the past, fifteen months or so. Meanwhile wholesale prices for the goods the farmer must purchase for his home and for his general carrying have fallen but thirty-eight per cent, while prices for farm implements of one kind or another have fallen but tiwenty-eight per cent. Naturally farmers are asking how' they can carry on •when theyare bit both going and coming in their business world. Further, farm women find, that while the prices of the more costly goods are,decidedly lower than they were two years ago that the prices for su(sh goods as the farm woman of average means wishes to purchase remain- practically as high as ever. Who but farmers have the courage to carry on tinder such conditions their slogan being "busings as usual?” When farmers stop gambling sind start a non-buying campaign there may be strange doings on :the green. , v REPORT OF S.
