BELGRAVE Although Berry Willnnnson. is 87 yean•s of age he does not let that stop him from doing his bit in • the "Food For Britain” drive. On Wed- nesday he hoed 12 romts of 'turnip. at Carl Procter's farm on, the 4th line of Morris and finished the }oh in better slhape than many a younger man. Melbourne Bradburn, 6th conces- sion of East Wawanosfh, wears, te smile that will not come -off- despite the fact that his leg 1s in. a brace and he requires two crutches tq- walk about. The reason. 'fm' his happiness is, he •eenp'laims, that he has a fire lot of good neighbors and friends. Last spring .Melbourne had the misfortune to meet with -an acci- dent that put him in, a hospital hist when he .should have been, at —his seeding. No seeding, no crops, is, a serious situation, but his neighbors came to the rescue an did the wonk. The time arrived to nut in. tih,e hay and with help very scarce it looked bad for Melbourne's crops ' but again his neighbors and friends were on the job and the hay is now all in the learn and the. wheat. is cut.,: Thirteen men made a raid on his • hay crop; ore from Winghsm, one from Belgrave, and eleven neigh- bors... They used two hay loradei's and three wagons. and in two and one-half days ,harvested 80 loads.' • No wonder Melbourne is happy awl, lie is most appreciative, of the wonderful assistance that he ]las •received. 1 Wednesdla'y, Aug'ti t 5 1942 W/iu. RiskaThresh n %ire? Practice These 3 Simple Safety Measures: Threshing fires will be practically eliminated if these three simple precautions are taken: QUse a water 'sprayer at the base of the blower—supplying 20 to 40 gallons of water per hour according to the dryness of the straw. This will keep down dust which increases lire the moment it starts. Prevent matches, either loose or in boxes, from passing through the machine. Boxes of matches have proved more dangerous than loose matches. Insist that none be carried by anyone engaged. Obey the Fire Marshal's order posted on the machine. EiSet the engine or tractor well away from straw or any 2. other readily combustible material. Prevent loads of sheaves from standing.or passing near to the engine's exhaust: Especially in wartime it is every farmer's duty to prevent threshing fires from starting. But if they do start, be ready for them, Keep n barrel of water near the blower—and another near the engine. A flame -proof blanket is are excel- lent thing to smother a fire the moment it begins; but a coat or a ,smock will do. Fight by preventing fires. Farmers' Central Mutual Fire Insurance Co.

MORIWOOL IS NEEDED for Canada's War Effort CO-OPERATE IN ONTARIO'S EFFORT TO PRODUCE MORE WOOL. HELP INCREASE THE SIZE AND NUMBER OF ONTARIO SHEEP FLOCKS PRODUCING more wool to clothe Canada's fighting forces and her civil population is a vital task which deserves the earnest consider- ation of every Ontario farmer. A brief study of the wool production of North America 'and of world conditions occasioned by the war reveals an alarming situation that calls for straight thinking and forthright speaking. North Americo. Wool Production 1941 Canada 19,200,000 lbs. United States 455,000,000 lbs. 'Total 474,200,000 lbs. DEFICIT - - - - North American Wool Consumption 1941 Canada 109,000,000 lbs. United States 977,000,000 lbs. Total 1,086,000,000 lbs. - - 611,800,000 lbs You can see that with shipping space at a premium and with every merchantman a target for enemy submarines, the situation is indeed critical. More wool must be produced at home and it's up to Ontario farmers to help produce it. The Ontario Department of Agriculture is working to effect an increase of 255 in this province. To do this, all present flocks must be kept, and in addition, 110,000 ewe lambs from the 1942 crop must be kept on the farm. If every present flock owner kept three ewes from this crop, most of the increase would be obtained. But since many sheep owners cannot accommodate any more animals, the Department is asking Ontario farmers to establish 1,000 new frocks which will absorb all surplus ewe lambs. Your Agricultural Representative will be able to put you in touch with men who have lambs for sale or mea who wish to purchase them. In establishing 1,000,. new flocks, it is intended that expansion take place by counties in proportion to the present sheep population. You will see what expansion must be accomplished in your county in the lists below.
