The fruit and vegetables have not been as good at any of the fairs this year as other years, which is doubtless due to the dry season, The baby contest at Brussels Fall Fair would have been a centre of in- terest but for the fact that they were judged in a very small corner of the building, which was curtained off, The winning babies were, of course, "not a bit better than any of the oth- ers. Twenty mother's entered their babies in the competition, The prizes were awarded as follows: --Mrs. Bry. nese a Belgian lady, lst; Mrs. Wheel er," Jamestown, god; Mrs, Cardiff, Brussels, 3rd; Mre, M.

We then may look for an era of expansion and developement such as Canada has nevar known. This will mean busy factories, increase of population, demand for houses and higher prices for real estate. The Moral is --"Buy your home now." We have a good list of ex- cellent properties for sale at right prices.

Ob ye critics, for Heaven's sake stop your etitioising, if you do not want to go yourselves nqr your sons to go, do not belittle the noble separation o£ those who are going to fight the foe, even if they are there for what they can "get out of the job," remember that "the job" may cost theta their lives. To -day the writer eaw a wid- owed mother weeping, she was visit- ing her son in the camp when the news flashed forth. But yet in spite of her tears she would rather see her boy go then see him get cold feet. As the nights are extremely cold all the boys have had issued to them extra blankets and underwear. Pie. M. R, Beckwith was one of the unfortunate ones who did not pass the strict medical exam of last week, con- sequently he will get an honourable discharge and come home again after doing bis bit for nearly four months. Each battalion in camp has an area of 17 acres for sleeping tents and par- ade grounds, in walking through the camp on Sunday afternoon, the vacant allotments, once so thickly *populated were very conspicuous and we could not help wonder where are now the boys who made once these grounds re• echo with song and mirth?

This well was suck to a depth of 130 feet, and has an estimated flow of 160 gallons of water per minute. The supply from the two wells will run over 200 gallons per minute, or a total of 288,000 gallons per day. As the consumption of water by the WWII does not exceed 200,000 gallons per day, it is expected these wells will furnish water sufficient for all purposes -rt• A. M. C. RECRUITING Noah the training which men of the Army Medical Corps of the Cana. dian Expeditionary Force now receive at the Royal Army Medical Training School, Shorneliffe, before going to the front, will hereafter be given in Tor- onto. This change in precedure will have the effect of shortening the pe- riod which the men will spend in Eng- land before proceeding to France. When the Army Medical Training De- pot, now at Camp Borden, is transfer- red to Toronto, a large draft will be sent overseas and other drafts will fol- low monthly thereafter. The unit is therefore, calling for a large number of recruits and drill and instruction are being actively carried on at Camp Borden, under Sergt.-Major Rhodes and at the Base Hospital hero under Sergt. Franklin. As detachments are continually go- ing forward to Eugland and the front promotion in the corps is rapid, More- over, in it men not fitted for the life of the trenches are enabled to find inter- esting and humane duties under the Red Cross. Men are wanted to act as clerks and stenographers, for hospital work, field stretcher duty and first aid. Those with knowledge of St. John's Ambulance work are particularly urg- ed to join the unit. Intending recruits should apply to Sergt. Walter J. Mc. Crae, A.M.C., Base Hospital, Gerrard Street East. PRUNING FRUIT BUSHES. Currants and Gooseberries Must Be Carefully Looked After. The main reason that currant and gooseberry bushes do not yield skis - factory crops from year to year is due to the lack of proper pruning. Both currants and gooseberries pro- duce their fruit on canes that are at , least two years old, the first season be- ing generally utilized for the growiug of the canes, the second for the for- mation of fruit buds or spars and the third, a full crop may be expected. These canes will bear for two and even three years, but each year after the third they begin to show a decided de- cline—the fruit becomes smaller and less valuable. In order to keep the production up to the standard the bush should be 'placed on the rotation basis —that is, each year a few new, strong shoots should be permitted to grow. All the rest shoal he cut out and also each spring a like number of the oldest canes should bo removed. In other words, we should grow the same num- ber of new canes that we take out in old canes. In this way we eliminate the old and exhausted canes and keep the bushes in strong, vigorous growth. Further, as the season progresses, all shoots beyond those that we wish to use for fruiting later on should be re- moved and not permitted to utilize the food supply that should go to, the fruit- Ing canes. Sorghums Smut Treatment. 1eruel smut of the sorghum crops may be controlled by the same treat- y..>>ent given to !sill oats smut, The treating solution is made by mixing a mint of formalin (also called forutalde' hyde) with thirty to forty galloon of water. The seed may either be sprite - Med or immersed, Sprinkling is easier and if done carefully is Just as effee- tive. in the eprlukliag method tho seed is spread out on a clean floor and the solution b applied with a :;grin- lling eau. The seed 10 stirred while being sprinkled, When each seed is moistened the seed is piled tip and coo. ered tightly with wet stacks, blankets or canvas for several boom. Then it is spread out to dry. Successive lots aro handled in the saute way. Treated seed should not come in contact with containers that bavo hold 'untreated seed unless those containers have also been treated with the solution.
