start.

to waste this season, especially of the
winter kinds. We notice quite a num-
ber of the early apples, which had begun
to form, are dropping off badly.

ing with a sore arm these days, the
result of burns received while soldering
a gasoline tank. With the assistance
of a plumber he was • affixing a larger
tap to the tank, which had previously

them. Dr. McNally of Toronto,
provincial health officer, paid an official
