"Registration Day,"thedate of whichbou 1 s e t1- ix 1 a ed for Sat- urday June 22ed, will give ev- ery Canadian affected by the law an opportunity .to perform the great na- tional duty of citizenship. The reg- istrar for Soutlt Iluron, , A, J. Grigg, is appointing deputy regis- trars and assistant deputy registrars in sufficient numbers to register the entire population. Registration of- fiees or booths will be opened in conveniently situated locations, in schools, halls, etc., in every munici- panty, and certificates or registra- tion will he issued to every regis- trant. Tnl order to facilitate this gigantic task, schen). boards and teachers, Patriotic and Red Cross Societies are invited to assist the registration officials in every possible manner by providing free of charge suitable buildings such as school houses, etc., and by furnishing volunteer helpers, who may assigtt their remuneration to the Rett Cross if desired, to do the clerical work. The registration ollicos will be kept open from 7 a.m. to 10 p,m., hence the necessity of providing lighting facilities for the registration places. While .non -registration entails many Penalties of the most serious char- acter, it is expected that the Can- adian people will look upon regis- tration as a great national duty to be performed, not out of a sense of compulsion, but rather in a spirit of patriotism, and as an act of encour- agement to our gallant overseas de- fenders, The registration of the man and woman power of Canada will go forth to the world as the solemn expression of Canada's unalterable determination to support her own and the allied armies until the final victory. • The few minutes .required for regis tration, or the 0110 Hay's salary donated by the willing workers, will be a small sacrifice indeed compared to those now being made by Can- adian manhood in the forefront of the battle line. Yet it will he of inestimable value in maintaining the splendid morale of our unsurpassed citizen soldiers to know that those for whom they are fighting on the fields of*France and Flanders are not recreant to the solemn duty of the hour in their beloved Canada. That duty calls for the exercise of every generous and high resolve in all the avocations of a spirited peo- ple whose very existence as a peo- ple, and whose great heritage is in- volved In the issue of the struggle. For the purpose of registration the Riding ot South Huron for the Donz- inionnITouse has been divided into school sections using the school houses where possible as 'she Mace of registration. • It is particularly desirable that clergymen of all denominations, Pat- riotic Societies, school teachers, ag- riculturalists and members of other professions, journalists, captains of industry, members of commits, in short all those who by f6asan of their professional or social position wield great influence, should make. .known the 'requirements and the purpose of registration; in i.xcler that no false conception of its im- port may gain ground, or jropar list its success. Let our message from this Riding on Registration Day be one of sym- pathy 'and steadfast purpose to our spldiers at the front ; in` common with the rest of Canada let our answer to the calls of the Registra- tion Board be the clarion voice of an united people, couseious of the justieo..of its cause, and animated by a common determination to do all in its power to have that cause pre- vail, A.

Finally the bride summoned tip courage to falter, "I --I'm afraid, dear, 1. loft something out of this cake,' "No, sweetheart," he gently re- piied, "nothing that yotl could have loft out could make a cake taste, like this," Alsike and White Clover as Honey Plants • Partnere knew '1;110 value of the tWo perennial elevate, alsike 01111 white Dutch cloves, for flay and llashure, but It Is not always re- membered that a large bonus may bo obtained from them In the form of honey. They prodttee more honey in Canada than all other plants put together, and this honey is of the highest quality. Produeltioa of clover honey Is greatestinthe farming lands of Eastern Canaria, Almost the whole togion south of the Ottawa River is excellent, The 'St, Lawrence Riv- er Valley is almost as good. The Valleys ot the St. John, and other rivers in New Brunswick, marsh hay lands in Nova Scotia and the deli farnilrig lands of Prince Edward Is- land anti around Lake St. John, flues are very good too, Int the clay belt of Northern Ontario, not- ably otably around Ifaileybury and Dryden, these clovers grow in Immense quan- tity and luxuriance, and some years produce heavy honey crops. While alsike as a commercial honey plant has reached its Highest develope- ment in the Eastern Provinces, white clover door "well in a large part, of IVIanitoba, British Columbia. 'The cultivation of clover onsuit- ,able lands as a combined.1 farm and 'honey crop is recommended as fol- lows : (1) Growing alsike with timothy for hay. Alsike is better for this purpose than red clover because the latter is of practically no value for honey production and is beginning to spoil by tate time the alsike and tim- othy are ready to cut.. Alsike will grow on certain types of soil, for instance, ill-drainctl land, better than red clover. (2) Growing alsike for seed. An abundance of honey bees increases the yield of seed per acre ; and leav- ing the plant to produce seed len- gthens the honey flow. (3) Sowing white (stover in grass mixtures intended for pasture. On favourable lands the white clover will keep spreading, improving the pasture both for cattle and bees. Grazing, 11 not too close, will not seriously curtail honey production, and it lengthens the honey -flow, The honey -flow from clover lasts 3 to 5 weeks, beginning according to latitude, between mid -.June and 10111 - July, ' Good management of the bees, to build them up strong in time for the honey -flow and keep theist from swarming, is necessary. There is no better food for bees in winter than clover honey, The Woman's Part The following lines, with the ac- companying note, appeared in a recent 188130: 01 We fort Arthur Daily News-Clhroniele, We reproduce both and feel sure 'the Item will be of special interest to malty readers be- cause 1Vilss Stephenson Is 'a 0lhtion girl, who Is at present-teaohlug In Port Arthur "Mon may (lig and plough and plant, Melt inaY fight and toil, But women's task is no loss great ; 't'heir's is—to stow and boil.
