IT is against the law to permit,stockito run at large op Provincial Highways and some smart linea are being collected from non -observers. With so many anto- moblles on the move day and might the risk taken is too great to be passed care- lessly, There ate ways and means enough to tangle up a motorist without being called upon to somersault over the back of a 2 year old steer. " SEVERAL. Police Magistrates have dropped off fining wilful law breakers under the 0. T. A, and are determined to teach the offenders reverence for the Statute by imprisonment instead, with- out the option of a fine. Sympathy might be asked or expected where a est offense was committed but when a de- liberate defiance of the law is followed up no favor need be expected from those appointed to deal with such cases. ONE of the fine men. of this Dominion went to his rest last week in the person of Dr. James Mills, who died at Ottawa Thursday of last week, aged 84 years. He first carte into prominence as Presi- dent of the Ontario Agricultural Col- lege, which post he filled splendidly for 2r years. Later he was appointed to the Dominion Railway Board. The name of Dr. Mills will live long in Can- adian history. SetsARA desert that has so long been no-man's-land as far as the modern methods and plans of living is concern- ed, is no longer to play the part of the reluctive. By the introdnctiou of the motor car. aeroplane, jazz, &a, the .folk are going to be "right in town." The oases may be verily a green spot in the desert. especially if you have not the "sand" to look sharply after your own. g clays will make the trip across by car. Sows of the controversies over the consummation of Church Union are lacking in the sugar condiment and are sometimes minus the Christian brother- liness expected from those who are ex- pected to be representatives of One who went about doing Good. There may be differences of opinion on a great issue but also the opportnnity to exemplify the bigness of the manhood in discus. sing the gnestlon in which all are inter- ested. Keep the pepper and vinegar out but a little ginger may do no real harm. BALLOT boxes have a queer way of solving problems and weighing men. Often the results are not in keeping with the preelection promises or opinions' but possibly are nearer the mark than the prior appraisement, : Pub- lic opinion. although of uncertain judgment, is one of the best methods of settling situations and probably this court is many times oftener right than wrong if left to the calm judgment of the electors, even with all its uncertain- ties. : terimenesot Bs careful about fires, particularly during the Winter season. Almost every day's newspapers chronicle the destrnetion of property and sometimes life, with heavy financial losses on ec- ooant of want of care. Many times fires are unpreventable, it seems, but a bad feature of them from a business stand- point is that iosuranee rates are on the up grade and will continue to rise so long as properties; are;_ destroyed ;in in- creasing' ratio, To keep rates down everybody must be on guard and prac- tine the greatest care, THE municipalities that adopted the earlier date for their Municipal Elec. tions appear to be fairly well satisfied with the change as it takes it out of the turmoil and rush of the holiday trade when most people are fully occupied without the stir -up over a local election, Too little attention is paid to manage- ment of municipal affairs outside of the Council and about the only time the average elector is beard from is when It comes to tat paying time, A livelier in- terest should be taken in local affairs as It maid encourage the officiary to make ' it easier to 'enforce' the By-laws and stimulate development in home enter- Old Tywe Concert lt'tr.l, it l: tllvi•)W itY TIM IRLS' I OROAS OLVB IN Tal,•' OPERA HOUSE BRUSSELS Thursday v 11 y e'�! pe A fine program will be pre.' canted of Bygone Days.

PQRTERFIE..D, Cler'ir, Corn Borer in Huron County Although little, has been said about it, Duron County is faced with the most serious problem that we have frteed for many years. The European Corn. Borer has made marvellous development in the last year, partic- ularly in the Counties of Essex, Tient, Latnbton, Elgin and South Oxford. The infestation in many of thee° Counties runs • from 10 to 75 pet cent, and in some cages it has ruined the corn crop. In Huron Onunty, solar, we have not lied heavy infestation. The Corn Borer has been found in every Town- snip in the County and unless we adopt some thorough method of con- trolling this peat it is certain to over- run the County from one end to the other. A leaflet, prepared by Prof. Caesar of the 0. A.. 0., outlines control meas- ures. These will be found to be simple and arcing the lines of gond farming practice, Please adopt the control measures outlined endhelp stamp out Huron's moat dangerous enernv. Clean up and see that your neighbor does. If you don't you will ruin his crop as well as your own. If he doesn't he will ruin your crop. Huron County is practically 'clear of this pest.
