Have the •Apples.
Our .,Dungannon correspondent= last
week called attention to the quantities of
good apples going to waste in the orchards
through the country. Anyone drwtng
through the country the last few weeks
could not fail to notice the same thing.
Is it not possible to save a considerable
portion of these apples. for either com-
mercial or patriotic purposes? In some
places, we understand. gangs of boys
have been organized to pi,:k and gather
up the apples so that they can be dis-
posed of. Arrangements might be made
with the owners of the orchards either to
hire the boys or to let them have the
apples at a fair price. or. as suggested by
our Dungannon correspondent. to have
them sent to hosaitals or soldiers' camps.
What is needed is an organizer to get
the boys together ani direct the work.

lion as an expert apple -grower, and a visit
to his orchard afforded a delightful revela-
tion of what can be done with careful and
intelligent efTv'rt in the grewu g and naark-
eqng of the prune Canadian fruit.
Mr. Cameron las nine and a hall acres
in orchard and about 300 trees. The or-
chard is chiefly in three varieties, North-
ern Spy, Baldwin and Ben Davis. The
treeswereplanted twenty-nve years ago,
and twelve years ago Mr. Cameron put
into practice some origural.Yked which he
had conceived and *fich he has canoe
followed out with entiillm success. He is
systematic and thorough in pruning and
sprayllw; and keel's the orchard ground in
good strong condition, and covered with a
thick sod. The results are apples of a
wonderful color and quality, uniformly
good size and almost ab elute freedom
from wormssr scab. To be really appre-
ciated, the fruit should be seen un the
trees, which present a beautiful apprar-
ace of robust health and vivid coloring.
This year•Mr. Cameron will have 900
barrels of packed apples. Ile has sold the
pack to Mr. J. le. Anderson, the well-
known apple -dealer of Lucktww, who is
sending them to the Western market,
where they command a high price.

WHAT ABOUT THIS, GIRLS?

Tuttle Editor of The signal.
DEAR SIR ,-I noticed lags
paper an advertisement asking for
teer nurses to help in looking after
taken down with the influenza and
ting a stop to the epidemic which Ims
created such havoc in our town. Thi
work is in a line with the work of the
Red Cross nurses overseas, but calls for
much less sacrifice in the giving up of ,
home comforts and companionships, and
it seems tome there ought to be a good
many in Goderich who should respond to
such a call. especially as 1 understand
there have been clasees in tint -aid work,
etc., which have been attended by ninny
of the young ladies 1 was therefore
much surprised when i was informed that
there had been only one or two applicants
in response to the advertisement. We
have been heanng a good deal about
patriotism, and maw people have not
been slow to say` "Slacker" when they
saw some young man apparently not
ready to "do his bit." But isn't this
plague of influenza just as much an
enemy as the Hun when it ,ones into the
home and takes the life of a loved one:.
is it patriotic to light an enemy only
when you are togged out in a uniform and
march to the front with bands playing?
Isn't it up to the young women now to
do their part just as the young men are
expected to do theirs? 1 sh i'uld hate to
have to say "Slacker" to anyone o1 my
own sex. 1 know there is kits of work
to be .k,ne in homes right here in Code -
rich in 1 aring for the sick. and it is im-
possible to get regular nurses, and in
many cases if they could get them they
could not afford to pay them. I hope 1
shall soon hear better things of the young
women of Goderich.

is the contracting idea as applied to farm

could be applied to regular farm lands
