YUILL 25 YEARS MARRIED Friends Make Presentation And Address Read ’'4 25 years of wedded life, was’well remembered by the neighbors and friends of Jos. and Mrs. Yuill 4th line of Morris on Monday evening, March 16th. The first part of the evening was spent in cards and social chat, after which a delightful lunch was served. A nice feature of the evening was having present some of the guests that were present at the weding 25 years ago. They being asked to sit at the dinning-room table with the bride and groom in the centre of- which was a cake decorated with 25 lighted candles representing their 25 years of wedded life. After lunch was over Mr. J. Wheel­ er called the gathering to order and Mr. Alex King read the following address and Mrs. Jesse Wheeler pre­ sented them with a Westminister Chime mantel clock. Mr. Yuill made a fitting reply and thanked his friends for their kind remembrance, after which everyone joined hands around the bride and groom and sang Old Lang Syne. The rest of the evening was spent in dancing. The gathering came to a close with everyone wishing the bride and groom many added years of hap­ piness. Mr.-and Mrs. Joseph Yuill Dear Joe and Mabel: We, your friends and neighbors have gathered at your home this ev­ ening to do you honour, on this the occassion of your twenty-fifth wed­ ding anniversary.

On ice that was very sloppy, Bel­ more and Fordwich staged a hockey battle in the Wingham Arena Mon­ day night. These two teams are now tied for the Championship of the Howick Hockey League. The score at Monday’s game was 3 to 2 for Bel­ more which tied the series all up. On Wednesday night last week at Wroxcter these teams played a tie game and on Friday night Fordwich nosed out a 3 to 2 win. The ice surface was such that it was hard for the players to control the puck but both teams battled away to the finish with a fair crowd pres­ ent to cheer them on. Belmore left the ice in the first per­ iod one up. Inglis scored the only goal of this period. Fordwich came right back in the second period and grabbed two goals to put them one up. Hannah scored on a shot from centre ice and Johnston banged in his own rebound. The third period was a bad one from a Fordwich standpoint but the Belmore rooters had a field day as their team scored two goals to win the game and tie the series. Abram got the equalizer and Harper the winning tally. Line-ups: Belmore: Goal, C. McNeil; def., J. Abrams, N. Newans; centre, H. Ed­ wards; wings, J. McNeil, G. Inglis; Alternates, L. Harper,ZG.

Millions of people have found that Kellogg’s All-Bran supplies soft “bulk” with satisfactory results. Tests in nutrition laboratories demonstrate that the “bulk” in. All-Bran can be used with the utmost confidence. Naturally, those few individuals with diseased or highly sensitive intestines should not take “bulk” in any form—either in leafy vegetables or in bran. Unlike cathartics, All-Bran is natural in its action—nor does this food lose its effectiveness with con­ tinued use. Within the body, it absorbs moisture and cleanses the intestines, promoting normal and healthful elimination. Two table spoonfuls of this deli­ cious cereal, served with milk or cream, are usually sufficient. Enjoy it also in cooked dishes. Help your family keep well, Serve All-Bran regularly for tegularity.

Three hund­ red and sixty-seven farmers have as­ sisted with the wprk and their reports for the whole period show the aver­ age yield of soybean seed to be more than twenty bushels.per acre and the average yield of hay over two tons per acre. Reports from, twenty de­ monstrations in 1935 show an aver­ age seed yield of 22.2 bushels per ac­ re; and reports from fourteen other demonstrations, where the crop was cut green for hay, give an average hay yield of 2.77 tons per acre. Soybeans are now being grown on many Ontario farms. Some farmers use them as an annual hay crop, oth­ ers grow them to maturity and har­ vest the ripe seed to mix with oats and barley for stock feed. They are also grown as a cash crop. Many far­ mers use from 15% to 20% soybeans ground with other grain in the ration for livestock. Soybean meal, where available, is also being used. Soybeans are not difficult to grow. They do well on land that will pro­ duce a good crop of corn. It is un­ wise to attempt to grow them on land badly infested with weeds. The seed should be sown about the middle of May in rows about 28 inches apart (every fourth spout of the grain drill) using 45 pounds of seed per acre, order to keep weeds in check, crop Should be harrowed once twice after the plants are nicely Subsequent cultivation should about the same as for corn.

SEED TREATMENT CONTROLS DISEASES 'x find it.” Tommy—“No; but Johnny’s wood­ en horse has a new tail.” GEMS FROM LIFE’S SCRAP-BOOK Many of the best varieties of wheat, oats, and barley are susceptible to smut, and until they can be replaced by suitable smut-resistant varieties, careful and regular seed treatment of­ fers the only method of controlling this disease. Freedom from seed- borne diseases, such as smut, is usu­ ally considered to be one of the most important characteristics of register­ ed and certified seed, and purchasers of this seed, relying upon its quality, frequently sow it without treatment. Yet, according to a statement from the Dominion Rust Research Labor­ atory at Winnipeg, even seed of the highest quality, showing a trace of smut, may produce a smutty crop if sown under conditions favourable for smut infection. It is particularly im­ portant that all registered and certi­ fied seed should be free from smut. Elimination of smut from such seed would prevent the spread of the dis­ ease with new varieties, and would help to improve both yield and qual­ ity in the commercial crop. The treatment of wheat, oats, and barley has been greatly simplified by the recent introduction of. organic mercury dusts such as New Improved Ceresan. This dust, when applied to the seed at the rate of one-half ounce per bushel, effectively controls the smuts of oats, covered smut of, barley, -ee.’ and bunt of wheat. It also improves seed germination. Tests are being made of other organic mercury dusts now being sold in Canada. Wheat may be treated with copper carbonate dust (2 ounces per bushel) for the control of bunt, but this dust should not be used for grains, such as oats and barley which have a coarse hull. Copper sulphate, commonly known as bluestone, may cause severe seed in­ jury and should not be used for treat­ ing grain. Formalin solution (one pound of formalin to 30 gallons of water) has long been used as a treatment for the smuts of oats, covered smut of bar­ ley, and bunt of wheat. This treat­ ment, if well done, is effective, but is likely to impair the germination of the seed, particularly of wheat, and reduce the yield. Further information about seed treatments may be obtain­ ed from the Dominion Rust Research Laboratory, Winnipeg, Manitoba.

In the or up. be A Plan For The Woodlot (By J. C. Marritt) It takes many years to grow a tr< and on this account farmers should consider carefully the value of the woodlot as history shows that the small woodlot will be destroyed un­ less it is protected, and also it is very expensive to establish another wood­ lot by planting. If the farmer decid­ es that a farm is better with a wood­ lot he should manage the woodlot with the object of maintaining it in productive woodland in perpetuity. An important phase in the manage­ ment of the woodlot is the provision of small trees to take the place of the trees that are cut, and die. The young growth may be secured by planting or from natural reproduction —that is, started from seed of trees growing in the woodlot or sprout growth from cut stumps. Planting is expensive and will likely not be done as it requires labour and the planted land will not give returns for twenty years or more. Natural reproduction may be secured very cheaply. The on­ ly expense is a fence and the loss of ; pastures in the woodlot. The pasture; is usually not very valuable as grass in the shade of trees is sparse, and not as nutritious as grass grown in sunlight. Weeds are often very plenti­ ful in the open pastured woodlot. Tree seeds from last season were scattered in the woodlot last fall, and other species will have seed ripening in early spring. Many of these will germinate and would grow into valu- “ablc trees if the stock are kept out. Stock browse the seedlings each year soon after they germinate. There is usually sufficient reproduction in a woodlot field as the stock are only in the woods for a short period. Eight to ten acres of woodland on a 100 acre farm is usually sufficient to supply the ordinary farm house with fuel, but two or three acres are. better than nothing.
