Coediting Schools .With a view to assisting rural home -makers in the choice of proper foods and their preparation, the De- partment has conducted four cooking schools. The first was held in Ayl- mer on August 14 and 15, the second in Strathroy on August 17 and 18, 'in Exeter on August 21 and 22, and in St. Marys on August 24 and 25. The general plan of demonstration was based on the idea that the needs of the family can be_met through the use of Canadian -grown products. At each session, a very earefuliy-pry pared p'r'ogram was' carried out and recipes of real worth distributed. Plans are being considered for hold- ing similar demonstrations in many parts of the .province at a later date. Ontario Junior Team Third at Regina In competition with teams rep- resenting five different Provinces and three States of the Union, On- tario placed third in the Junior Seed Judging Competition held . at the World's Grain Show, Regina. The Ontario team, composed of Maurice Baker, Durham County, Clifford Mar shall, Oxford County, Oliver Smith, Durham County and John Wallace, Perth County, won a total of $620 in • prize money, with Maurice Baker securing the third high aggregate score. This is a real achievement for Ontario Juniors, particularly so, when it is realized that they were only excelled by teams from the grain growing Provinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta which placed lst and 2nd respectively. The standing of the team is a splendid tribute to the aII round programme being carried an with the Junior Farmers through- out Ontario by the Agricultural Re- presentatives. . Crop Conditions The official survey made by the Department of crop conditions in Ontario early in August is now avail- able, The continued drought during June and July so seriously affected the growth of crops that condition, figures for the principal ones et the end of July were the lowest recorded in any year since 1918, the first year in which figures were compiled; Spring grain which was at the ripen- ing stage during the last half of July suffered severely from the heat. Ear- ly oats and barley turned out better than anticipated, while fall wheat showed a wide range, with many fields having an excellent yield, Pastures were so badly burned at the end of July that farmers gener- ally were forced to stable feed their dairy herds. Early August rainfalls, however, have improved the pasture situation. A much areal/elk yield of both burley and flue -cured tobaoeo is indicated. The condition of dry beans is much below average in Western Ontario. Ontario Egg Situation "In Ontario, as practically over the whole of Canada," said T. A. Benson, Federal Poultry Branch, To- ronto, "the production of eggs aha dropped, and with any increase , in demand may easily drop below the level of consumption. "The lack of an active demand for eggs from Ontario, and to some ex- tent on the Ontario markets, has caused a temporary further reduc- tion in prices. This condition, how- ever is not unusual at this season and may result in a somewhat increased consumption, as indicated by a bet- ter clearance of eggs on the market early this week. "Receipts on the Montreal mar- ket as of August 8 were considerably lighter than those of the same date last year. All this may herald the turn of the market in an upward di- rection, which is about due. Usually such a turn comes quite quickly at this season. "Everything would appear to re- pend upon consumptive demand rath, er than upon ahy likelihood of in- creased supplies. Although to some extent economic conditions have han- dicapped sales of the higher grades, the demand for extras would appear to be increasing at the larger en- tree." o Apple Inspection The Provincial Fruit Branch and the Dominion Fruit Branch, have joinedforces in the inspection of the apple crops of Ontario in connection 'with the export regulation of the Destructive Insect and Pest Act that prohibits the export of apples to any country other than the United States unless the shipment is accompanied by a certificate of inspection issued by a duly -appointed inspector. It is intended to inspect only those or- chards from which apples are likely to be exported. Any _grower who proposes to export apples is requir- ed to submit- an application for In- spection, with the exception of growers who have been carrying out control operations this season under the Ontario Fruit Branch un- der. the "Orchard -Certification Plan." These growers have already been listed. The inspection began en August 23rd and any varieties found free from infestation may • be exported, subject to further examination by the 'Dominion Fruit Inspectors at the time of packing, when certifi- cates will be issued. Applications should be forwarded to the Secretary, Destructive Insect and Pest Act Advisory Board, De- partment of Agriculture, Ottawa. It should give the name and postal ad- dress of the grower, the location of his orchard by county, township and lot number, and should state the var- ieties and number of trees in his or- chard. Ontario Won Numerous Prizes at Grain Show The corn growers of South Wes- tern Ontario captured the first nine prizes in the Late Flint Glass at the World's Grain Show, and thereby demonstrated to the world that the banner Flint Corn growing areas no longer lie south of the 49th parallel. The outstanding success of the On- tario corn growers, led by Wan, W. Weaver, Turnerville, is only one of the triumphs of Ontario farmers at the greatest World's Grain Fair ever held, which recently carne to a suc- cessful conclusion at Regina. The Blue Grass growers of .Ontario share premier honours with the corn men, by taking eleven of the first thirteen prizes in this class. L. B. Mehlenbacher, Cayuga, stood first in the Blue Grass, and J. M. Van Loon, Waterford, R. R. 1, first in the Red Top Class. Mrs. Mary E. Maycock of Prince Edward County very decisively clinched her right to the World's White Bean crown by securing first prize in small White Field Beans, and second in medium White Beans. Mrs. Maycock has secured the Bean Cham- pionship at the Chicago Inter'nation- al..Grain' and Hay Show for three successive years, and her recent tri- umph is a monument to her energy and ability in the selection and grow, ing of this important Cash Crop in Ontario. R. S. Lee, Chatsworth, R,R. No. 1, took first place in the small White Field .Pea class. Northern Ontario came into prom- inence by securing first honour in the class for Field Peas, any other type. This prize goes to A. E. Browning, Oxdrift. Douglas H. ,Hart, Woodstock, .had the distinction of winning the largest single prize coming to Ontario, by securing $1250.00 as second prize in the White Winter Wheat Class. Sev- en other prizes came to Ontario in this class, D. L. Scott, City View, who won the $500.00 Canada Malting Company prize at the 1932 Royal Winter Fair secured a similar amount with second prize in the Early Oat Class at Regina. Statistics on the World Grain Ex- hibition show that there were a total of three thousand entries from forty countries, States and Provinces. On- tario forwarded 300 entries, and se- cured one hundred and fifty-seven prizes in forty of the fifty-six classes The fact that Ontario Farmers made entry in '72 per cent of the classes shows very clearly the wide diversity of Ontario Agriculture, Ontario farmers, including the judging teams, won a total of $9382.- 00 cash, being out -distanced in this respect only by Alberta, Saskatche- wan, the United States and British Columbia. Each winning, large or small, re- presents in most cases, years of careful study, efficient crop manage- ment, and hard uphill striving for something better. • CANADIAN NATIONAL RAILWAYS EARNINGS The gross revenues of the all,in- elusive Canadian ' National. Railways System for the week ending August 141413, 1933, were, $2,752;6Q4, as com- pared with $2,579,953 for the eorre- spending pet•iod of 1932, an increase of $172,651. Feedidg for Profitable Mi k Production (Experimental Farms Note) ' Profitable miler production re- quires careful planning of the feed- ing program, for the entire year. ' It is essential that cows have an abun- dance of ,palatable nutritious feed in: order to produce milk in Large quan- tities and this feed must be obtained at minimum cost in order td make a profit on prevailing low prices of dairy products. • Milk is produced during the sum- mer more cheaply than at any other season, so provision should be Made. to have an abundance of pasture during the entire summer. In most cases, the permanent grass and 'clov- er pasture is satisfactory for early summer. The yield and quality of- permanent fpermanent pastures can be greatly unproved by top dressing with fer- tilizers. Information regarding pas. tore fertilization may be obtained by writing to the Superintendent, Ex- perimental .Station, Fredericton, N. B. During the late summer and early fall, provision should be made for INT EMJLt grazing the aftermath on fields •of clover and timothy which have been cut early for hay. Where ` this is impracticable, annual crops such as a mixture. of oats and peas can be grazed or the pasture can be sup- plemented with a feed of hay each day in the barn. At the Fredericton Experimental Station, the Milch cattle obtainthe bulk of their summer feed •on pas- ture. Whenthe permanent pastures begin to dry up, the Cows graze ort the aftermath from hay fields. Grain is fed in limited quantities to main- tain the milk flow at a reasonable level throughout the year. When pastures are luxuriant, the milk flow will be good 'without feeding grain but when production begins to, go down, it is wise to feed about 1 pound of meal to every 6 pounds of milk produced. This helps to main- tain production and the cows enter winter quarters in neueh better con- dition to continue profitable produc- tion during the winter. WHAT OTHER NEWSPAPERS 'ARE .SAYING EDITOR CELEBRATED STRENUOUSLY Well, it's all over. Fergus is a hundred years old, and several of the members of the cen- tennial committee feel just about the ,same age. And several elf the citi- zens must be up around the nineties. And as we it down to compose "that Inside Page" on Friday morn- ing, still almost too tired to sit up- right, and having to think twice tc remember what day of the week it really is, we recall that little verse written by some brilliant unknown at least 15 years ago, and which is so appropriate just now: I wish I was a little rock, Away up on a hill, With nothing in the world to do But keep on setting still; I wouldn't eat; I wouldn't drink; I wouldn't even wash; But set and set a thousand years, and rest myself, by gosh! —+Fergus News -Record. WHAT IS NEEDED Every country seems to be having organizations with different colored shirts, "Blueshirts," "Brownshirts," ete. What we want in Canada is an army' of men with shirts soiled by honest labor. —Wingham Advance Times ,0,x'1' Iti=' IT'S EASY TO TALK We heard Mr. Scott and Miss Mac- phail at Lucknow a few weeks ago and, truth to tell, we were not able to follow the line of reasoning they are placing before the people of Canada. To be told, for instance, that with the C.C.F. in the saddle we will be able to go to a bank and get money without paying interest is a little hard to swallow. It would be a fine thing if we could, of course, and it sounds great, but it is one thing to talk and another to act. —Goderich Star. CazerliiE=9 WE HAVE WONDERED We have often wondered why the people who are always saving So much money by buying out of town never seem to have any more cash than the rest of us, --Stirling News -Argus. owes • HONESTY Should governments set an exam ple of honesty to the citizens? Wb believe governments should and sup- pose in the majority of cases do, but there are some glowing examples of unfairness practiced by some govern- ment departments. Take for in- stance, rural mail carriers. They av- erage from twenty to thirty miles to a route, generally up one concession and down the adjoining one, In a township there will be on an average of five routes on roads comparative- ly the same, but no two couriers are getting paid the same amount per mile. If a carrier got his route sev- en or eight years ago and has suffi- cient political pull to have his con- tract renewed without having it op- ened to the public the chances are he is getting fairly well paid for his work. But any contracts that have been tendered for 'the past three years have been taken at very low prices and a carrier may be faithful- ly serving the boxholders on a cou- ple of concessions at from one guar, ter to a third less than the carrier is -being paid on, the adjoining two concessions. Sonne people willsay the lower paid carrier should be sat- isfied as they are being paid the a- mount they asked. On the -other 1the government should give equal pay for equal esrvice, thus setting an example for equity and honesty. This . crrticism is applicable to all govern- ments since rural mail delivery was established years ago, but could eas- ily be corrected.—+Kincardine News. GOOD ADVERTISING Mr. George Laithwaite's beautiful grounds on the Huron Road have been made further interesting by a splendid piece sof artistry, that of two stags in mortal combat, done in ce- ment. They are life-sized and very realistic, well worth a visit to this beautiful place. Mr. Laithwaite is endowed in a unique way with good taste, skill and a goodly share of patience. He has and is doing much to advertise Goderich. —,Goderich Star. •PROGRESS While Dr. W, A. Crich and Mrs. Crich, Toronto, and Dr, J. A. Munn, and Mrs. Munn, of Seaforth, were visiting the World's Fair in Chicago last week, Dr. Crioh's car, a large sedan, was stolen. It was recovered, however, a few days later Sans wheels, sans tires, sans practically everything that was removable. Sure- ely a Century of Progress since thin would never have happened in 1833. -•-Huron Expositor. ONE POINT FOR GRASSHOPPERS Even the grasshopper, bane of the Western Canada fanner, has its uses. The jumping insect which ravages fields of wheat also destroys sow thistle, the Manitoba Department of Agriculture reports. The sow thistle is one of the worst weed pests in ex, istence,—Mitchell Advocate. ozwe• lt THERE ARE PLENTY MORE OF THE SAME KIND The St. Thomas Times -Journal says; "Thirty-five London women went to Port Stanley by truck and then used the L. and P. S. pavilion for their picnic. It takes "nerve" to do a thing like that." Not at all! What about the depu- tations from the Boards of Trade and similar organizations that have joute neyed to the head offices of our Can- adian railways, protesting against the reduction of train service, when not a member of the deputations or possibly the organization which they represent, have purchased a railway ticket within .a year. Or what about the motorists that will use every accommodation they can find in the hotels of the county towns and villages and then go out and sit in their cars at the front door and eat a home made Iunch or hunt up a hot dog stand to spend money on? And the people who think the farm- ers along the highway in the country districts, grow apples, plums, corn, etc., so that motorists may supply their wants or future needs, without even the formality - of a "by your leave." Or the people who go out of their 'way to run over chickens on the highway, and in the winter kick at the price the farmer asks for his poultry? And last, but not least, the church societies, the patriotic societies and other societies, the majority of whose members would not dip into their own pockets for a quarter to further their own cause, who freely ask and expect that their town papers will .furnish dollars of advertising — free hand a majority of people believe What about them? that the Post Office Department of -Huron Expositor.

Mutch on Friday even- ing, The cast of "A Wild Flower oil the Hills," in which "Carl" took a leading part, and their friends were present. After a program of games and' contests a handsome leather au- tograph book with the autographs of those present was presented to Mr. Dair. Carl, who is a former reporter of The Signal, will be accompanied on his long trip by John McLean, well-known local youth. The. fleet lap of the journey will be across Canada to Vancouver, thence to Ja- pan and China, via Hawaii, and on through the ,Asiatic countries. Hopes are entertained that they may even see actual fighting as they traverse some of the Chinese province. The trip es planned will take them to the remote places of approximately fqr- ty countries and 50,000 miles in all will be covered. They propose to use as many. modes of travel as possible —automobile, train, steamship, river craft, aeroplane, mule, camel, and, of course, they may do some travelling more than the are on foot—perhaps y counting on. The two youths, pro- viding the wanderlust holds out, will return to Goderich on cmpleting the journey.—Goderich ,Signal. CSI GORRIE: Mrs. Robert E.
