Weekly 'Crop Report Apia average .crop of °fall wheat is • indicated and cutting' has progressed rapidly„ The hay crop is heavy one, but the quality is uneven owing to wet weather which has made curing difficult. Corn and roots continue to make satisfactory. ` progress. Rasp- berries and small 'fruits are abundant. Late varieties of trpplee.are!below av- erage. Peaches are doing well and giye promise of a large crop, Har- vesting has started' and prospects are excellent, Pasturage ' continues in good condition. Producing New Queen Bees A method of producing new queen bees is to place a full sheet of foun- , dation, or a -new emu's, in the centre of the ibroodnest of a desirable queen and to wat h this comb daily, As soon as eggs are found in itbrush the bees from, the comb and . place them in a ,colony that was made queenles's And'broodless an :,hour >pre- viously. Eleven or twelve days .later ripe queen cells ---will 'be found on this comb. This Method ensures that lar- vae of the right ace are used and that the resultant queens are from good stook. Parasites of Poultry .Lice and mites: are often the cause of poor :egg production during hot_ weather: Body lice call be controlled by the use of ibluh ointment applied beneath the wings':and around the ---vena.

Ordinary coal -oil will kill tile -mites,, -but as it evaporates quickly the efects are not lasting. An excellent "paint's to apply to the roosts and nest'boxes is composed'of one...part crude -carbolic' or, -possibly - better still, nicotine surphate, to three or four parts of coal -oil or a mixture of coal -oil rand erank .case oil.

Stop cultivation of dahlias when buds appear and give a good 'mulch with occasional applications of liquid man- ure for large bloom. Home Curing of Pork In the home curing of pork either the 'dry salt' or the . 'brine' _ method may be employed, but whichever. pro- cess is adopted common salt h'is • the curing agent. Such other ingredients as sugar," saltpetre, and baking soda are also used. As a rule, the old- fashioned brown )'tiger is preferred to the white erannlated kind as it is believed to give a sightly better fla- vour to the meat. A small quantity of salt-petre has a preservative effect and ,gives a reddish colour to the meat. Baking soda is used principal- ly with the brine cure. Pork for curing -should- be-- eut--up,. into convenient sizes and .it is im- portant, on the one hand, that all ani- mal beat has been cooled _ out of the meat, and, -on the other hand that the meat is not frozen when the curing is commenced. A • cool, well -ventilated -ee) Isr�is-�=a---deansuable=�=place for---�oth�- brine and dry curing. The curing is more easily controlled in cold, or at least cool weather, so that thick piec- es may not have a chance tespoil be- forethe salt has penetratted. PERSONALITY OF TEACHER -IMPORTANT FACTOR The more careful selection .of young people for training as teachers, the rais- ing of the standard both academic and physical and the enlargement .of the unit of administration' to township or county boards were some of the ways in which character, education or religious education would be brought about in the TdhT b 1 or Ontario, said Dr. Simpson, Minister of Edusatton, at the Seminar at Geneva Park, Lake Couchiching, a few evenings ago. The personality of the teacher was of far greater import- ance in its influence upon the children, than was the mere,ability to have them pass examinations, which so many par- ents looked upon, as the real test of the teacher. Dr. Simpson said he believed the unit of administration would have to be enlarged and that the Government would to a large ° extent take over the cost ' of education, thus giving relief to the overburdened municipalities. In or- der to introduce improvements.. he felt' this 'would be necessary.

The Bank of Commerce in • its August letter estimates that the world carryover of wheat, excluding Russia and China,. as at July 31,will be reduced about 300 million bushels from the previous tentative forecast of 110 per cent, of the 1934-35 crop. 'llhe net increase over July last year is estimated at 30 million bushels. Stocks in importing countries .are ex- pected _to- -be _"considerably" -smaller than a year -ago. The inference here is that Canada, with her large carry- over, may not be so _badly off as was thought, but that remains to be seen, VAL, DISEASE � w (w p� A i r i� ACK OR ..

VISITORS With the approach.. of, the___ rly.._fall season when numerous exhibitions will open at several important centres in Eastern 'Canada, the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways have ar- ranged reduced fares and special train service for the public, according to C. P. Riddell, 'Chairman of the Canadian Pas- senger °Association. These fares are bas- ed on single fare and one-quarter for the round trip covering the en -ti -re period -of ea,h exhibition and allow .for a generous return limit. In additior3 to these fares covering the entire period of' each exhi- bition, there will ' also be special low fares fqr specific dates to accommodate -those who have only two or three days at their disposal. These fares will be in effect for the following exhibitions: Toronto, August 23 to September 7; Quebe:, August 31 to September 7; Lon- don, September 9 to 14; Ottawa, August 19 to 24, and will apply from rrlany points within a considerable radius of each exhibition centre. With these long and short limit fares in effect from many stations throughout the various :•. Toronto, Quebec, London and Ottawa, it is anticipated that these exhibitions will attract a host of visitors travelling over both railways during the respective periods.

At its concluding session, the convention urged prompt remedial measures by Provincial author- ities. The average salary ' of the rural teacher was $10 •a -week, said the resolu- tion. This was ironical, in ' view of the expensive training teachers had to un- dergo. Conditions were those of virtual exploitation of those engaged in what was recognized as the most important of all public 'services.,Of these 'conditions decent citizens should be ashamed, said the mover of the resolution, adding that the lowest of unskilled workers were bet- i ter paid. 4 BUCKWHEAT OUTGROWS CROP OF MUSTARD Ottawa, Aug. 8. --In an experiment conducted on the -Central Experimental Farm, mustard was controlled in , the following manner. Buckwheat, ,whi'.h is a fast growing smother crop, was seeded about June 15. The mustard seed lying in the first 1 1-2 inches of soli •germin- ated about the same time as the buck- wheat but the mustard seedlings were soon- killed by the faster growing 'smoth- er crop. A After harvesting the buckwheat, ' the land was not cultivated or disturbed in any way. The following Spring ' oats were seeded on the buckwheat stubble, directly with the seed drill, with 'no pre-" •✓sous cultivation. Same mustard came lup in the grain' but the infestation was so small that the plants were hand pul- led with little difficulty and the yield of grain was higher than on adjoining plots seeded in the ordinary way. One of the cornrnonest complaints of infants is worms, and the mast effective application for thein is Mother Graves' Worm Exterminator. Callander— Through their kindly physician, Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, the Dionne ,quintuplets gave a messuge` to' the world. They said: "Thanks for all your help, and we .avant„ you -to know.. we are- now .self- supporting".- - The girl babies of Oliva and lilzire . Dionne have $45,000 in bonds and cash, and contracts now in - force probably will 'bring them another $50,000. The Canadian Red Cross paid for the nurses for a year and, with the Ontario government, helped out in various ways. In she past four months the children have paid all', their' own expenses. No figures have ever been given out 'but salaries of doctor and nurses probably total $450 a month. Other salaries, for an orderly, two maids and two guards, take perhaps $250 more. That total of $700 does. not in- clude upkeep of the hospital. • a Toronto -Building contracts award- ded in July ;throughout the Dominion totalled $118;5449,200 comopared with . $11,190,500 in July of last year, an increase of 65 per cent, The latest o a was a so ig er an a o- June, which was :418,521,400. Contracts awarded foe the year to 'date are the highest in four years, a- mounting to $94,143,700, an increase of 630.8 per cent, over the 1934 com- parative figures of $72,107,200. The 1933 total was $45,563,900 and that of 1932, $87,391,300. int a Bargain?-- r-igerat-or-,, -a N-ew- Electric---Mangle- ecfriic Washing Machine at . olesale Pricers.
