It waS pointed out that some- thing musi be done by the people in order to assist the tax men all •over Ont:trio to spread their flax or there will be a great scarcity of linen thread. this year. Hundreds of tons of linen thread are used every year in the manufacture of shoes, Only about 't quarter of 0 crop of flax is harvested this $'ear in Switzerland, and several of the other countries that have in the past been noted for their flax in dus- tries ace now at tear and the crops are not Leung garned at alt. Ontario has a Fairly large crop and must supply a goodly amount of linen thread for the allies. but how this is to be done unless the people turn out and assist in the spreading and threshing Of this year's crop is at present a cou- undrun. Linen thread is in greater demand than ever this year, 1l ds used in the manufacture of girths fur saddles, sold- iers' clothes and shoes, aeroplanes and in many other ways that make it nec- essary eo-essary to have the crop saved, and buts materially assist the allies. Unless it is threshed and spread within the next couple, id weeks it will be late for -this season's metiufaeture. Only about 2S''b of this year's crop is spread, and it looks as if labor cannot be secured. and unless the patriotic citizens of On- tario lend a hand there will certainly be a great scarcity of linen thread, D'o You do it Correctly? A vehicle or car wishing to pass an- other going in the sante direction should pass on the lett side. At the salve time the vehicle or car being passed should turn to the right so as to give half the travelled road. On meeting, Both vehicles or cars should turn iu hte right.
