In February of the past year she removed with her husband to Zurich to the residence of her daugh- ter. Although in failing health for many years. she always remained buoyant and cheerful. Her final ill- ness was only of six day's duration. A private service at her late resid- ence at 2,30 pm. Friday.

Fire At Wingham— One of the worst farm fires that the Wingham district ever experi- enced took place at the Field farm on the east end of the town recently. The loss $16,000' is only partially covered by insurance. The blaze made a total wreck of the barn, drive shed, , milk house, a double decker hen house and another hen house and the silo. The damage to the house was about 52,000. The roof of the house was very badly damag- ed. A new milking machine which had just been installed this spring was destroyed.

Finger Is Hurt— Charles Crowdy had the misfortune, to catch the first finger of his left hand in t hbeelt of a flax pulling machine while at work con the Wil- t;r,x farm in Ribbert. on Thursday afternoon for the Ilesky Flax Pro• ducts Co. It is understood that. some fax was tangled in the marquee which had stopped as a result, and in trying lb, extricate the flax his finger was caught and the tip of his finger taken. off. He was taken to Jenkins the evening before. The fire was discovered, by Art's son, Will- iam, He was awakened by either the blaze or the noise of the fire. He aroused his parents and they put in the alarm. This was about 2 a.m. People who took milk from Fields were very surprised to find that their milk and cream was left that morn- ing as usual. There was not a bit of delay in the service. The cows are now milked in one of the other two barns on the property, When Will They Learn?

Ali crops are below average in these counties and late crops and Pastures are poor. In Northern Ontario the districts of Cochrane, Thunder Bay, Lenora, and Rainy River received sufficient rainfall and crops, made satisfactoryaatisfactory development, but Al- goma, Sudbury, Timiskaming, Nipis- sing, Parry Sound, and the Bruce Peninsula experienced s p ddrY weather and late seeded grain fields, pastures and roots suffred consider- ably. The cutting of fall wheat was practically completed throughout the province at the end of July, and threshing was underway in .South- western Ontario, where much' of the acreage was cut by July 20th, There was sonic lodging in this crop, but owing to early maturity, it was not nearly as extensive as in the case of spring grains. The quality this sea- son is' extremely good and the straw is very heavy. The yield per acre is the highest on record, being estim- ated at 31.'7 bushels per acre as 'against 26,6 bushels last year and a preceding ten-year average of 25.6 bushels per acre. The acreage was also considerably greater this year, has amounting to 757,000 acres as against 565,500 acres in 1941, The total production this year amounts to 23,907,00Q bushels, and is almost 9,000,000 bushels larger than last year when this crop amounted to 15,042,000 bushels, This year's crop is the largest since 1927, In Western and Central Ontario heavy rain storms flattened much of r' grain spring gra n acreage and greatly increased the labour required in har- vesting, Owing to the fact that most of the acreage in this section was seeded by the first of May this year, the crops were very near maturity when lodging occurred, and as a re- sult the yield was not greatly reduc- ed, Some of the later seeded fields which are down badly may not fill as well however. In the counties at the extreme eastern end of the province the early seeded grain ripened pre- maturely due to dry weather during July, but later seededfields have re- ceived rains during the past ten days and may fill out somewhat better. The yield per acre of spring grains for the province as a whole this sea- son will be slightly below normal, but much better than the light yields obtained in 1941. Total grain production in counties of Western and Central Ontario will range from 30 to 100 per cent, greater than last year, with the lar- ' Want and For Sale Ads., 1 week 26c gest increases being obtained in those counties where the crops were exceptionally light in 1941.

Recent warm weather has also been beneficial for this crop in Huron county and con- dition ranges from fair to good, A very large hay crop has been harvested in Ontario, The quality was rather coarse due to rank growth and there was some spoilage due to wet weather, but the yield was so great that quite a number of fields were not cut.

Forms TD -i may be secured from your employer, Post Offices, or local Income Tax offices. Income Tax is Fair to All In the fourth year of war, Canada will need almost four billion dollars. This is the equivalent of nearly $350 from every man, woman and child in the country. Even with the highest income tax in history, 52% only of the money Canada needs will be raised by taxation. The rest will have to be borrowed by means of War Savings Stamps, Certificates and Victory Bonds. Starting with the first pay period in September representing Sep- tember earnings only, your employer is required by law to deduct your income tax from your wages or salary, and send it promptly to the Government. Everybody will pay his share as he goes along. It's going to be tough ... but not too tough! Here are some good features: 1. You will pay as you earn, so that you will not be faced with a large lump sum payment next year. 2. The National Defence Tax already de- ducted during the first 8 months of this year has been taken into account in the Table of Tax Deductions. 3. Though the income tax rates show a sharp increase over last year, a large portion of this increase is actuallysavings, to be paid back to you with interest after the war. 4. The money you are paying for life insur- ance premiums, annuities, principal repay- ments on your home, or into a pension fund may be deducted (up to a certain maximum) from the savings portion of your income tax. In many cases this may be sufficient to make payment of the savings portion of the tax unnecessary.
