H. Gee, the re- tiring Assistant Superintendent, at Listowel on Sept. 29th, 1934. The members present were: Agents H. J. Jobb, Listowel; B. W. Kearns, Kin- cardine; J. F: Baird, Palmerston;. Geri: R. Scott, Wingham; Mr. 3. McMich- ael, successor .to Mr. Gee; and H. W. ;Bailey, cashier. ..1 After a business session Mr. Mc- Michael invited the staff to dinner at Dew Lee's rest&uraunt where Mr. 3. H. Gee joined them. On the centre of the table was a magnificent bouquet of yellow "mums" which were after- wards presented to Mrs. Gee. After dinner Mr. McMichael in a few well chosen words called upon Mr. Bailey to read the following address: Dear Mr. Gee.: -- We, the members of your late staff of the Listowel Assistancy, ask you to accept this token of our esteem and ,y�tsptktvhtcl,;itds. been„bllxtl.:up„ over iff'lrent ' `.'e'rVre'e a pbxiods of service under your sttec ision. We'.re ret that you, hay seen fit to severyour iL t connection tan watli-<.us for„ different field of endeavor We remember that your service dtM� es ,from. Dec, 20th, 1915, a period' of nearly 20 years; most of. which, you served.•in the office of Assistant Stip- intendent, and during ilio' years ' we have been associated with you we have received great benefitfrorn your hap- py disposition Which' you, always ?man- ifested. We have especially benefitted duz•- ing these hard years of salesmanship; for you often took the sting out .of the task, and lifted the worry from. our thoughts; in fact'we diten' wond-. ered `where you packed your own. troubles so completely were they out of sight. While this side of your nature was. appreciated by us, yet we have been slow to recognize the sterling worth of your character, in always maintain- ing a clean balance sheet with the company. Never have we -known you to allow an account to be turned in, to the Company with a balance sheet owing to them. We also respect the confidence you always placed, in those handling the Company's funds,- and that your con- fidence was hard to break in- those you supervised, and we are glad we tried to prove ourselves true. We sin- cerely'trust those who are fortunate. enough to receive your confidence in the future may even prove themselves of a truer value. We do regret, as well as acknow- ledge the truth, that human nature: forgets the fact, that the fruit of con- fidence in our fellow men is trut- worthiness under all circumstances, and we have to acknowledge the fact that the lack of this fruit has caused, your very happy disposition, some very grave concern. You have a right to expect a return of trust for that given to others, and we rejoice with you that at least a few faithful ietnaineth. to live in your memory. Yours cery sincerely. Signed by the 'staff. Mr. Gee's .reply was given in his own characteristic aid .humorous way and many memories of the past were touched upon. He took -pleasure' in the fact that his successor, Mr. Mc- Michael, was a mar} who, he had• had the pleasure of training;:and his ap- peal to the Agencyforee'to„support the newly appointed Assistant was very much appreciated. Hereferred to., the gift, which was a smoking cabinet and Magazine rack combined as.sonie- thing entirely unexpetced but would prize it not only for its worth but for. its mark of aprreciationof his ;late staff.

Here and There What a practical newspaperman finds interesting ' on a 'cruise around the world in the Canadian Pacific` flagship Empress of Brit- ain can be counted upon to cap- ture the ` imagination of stay-at- homes. Last winter Alan Maurice Irwin, a Montreal writer, made the cruise. He saw intriguing places, outstanding people and strange customs. So he sat down and wrote a book which is illus- trated by photographs he made with his own camera, filled with amusing sidelights upon human- ity. Now, under the comprehen- sive title "-and ships—and seal- ing wax," the book is on Macmil- lan's fall list. That United States investors' capital would flow into Canada in an even greater volume is the prediction of John R. Hastie, of the Mutual Life of New York of- fice in Chicago, speaking before the Life Underwriters Associa- tion of Toronto, at the Royal York Hotel .-ecently. The cream of American base- ball ase ball players is scheduled to sail from Vancouver October 20, aboard the Canadian Pacific liner Empress of Japan, for an all-star tour of Japan, China- and the Philippines. Judge and Mrs. Kenesaw Mountain Landis may also be in the party. Photographed in a group for the first time since they were "shot" on their arrival in Canada a few years ago, His Excellency the Governor-General,Her Excellency and their elder son and daughter were snapped on board the Em- press of Britain just before Lady Bessborough and her son and daughter sailed . for Europe re- cently. Appropriation of one dollar was made recently by the. Van- couver City Council as the nom- inal price for the purchase from the Canadian Pacific Railway of 114 acres of right-of-way pro- perty at Kitsilano Be eh, near the British Columbia city:'-, The first McIntosh apples of the season for distribution throughout the Dominion from Victoria to Halifax went out re - recently over Canadian Pacific lines in trains of 45 cars. The fruit is reported to be in won- derful condition and this season's product will maintain the great reputation that British Columbia has won for its apples. News and Information For The Busy Farmer 1 Indigestible Poultry Feeds Of the slaughter house by-products for the feeding of poultry, meat im.als or meat scraps are by far the most commonly used and are the standard animal protein supplements to poultry rations. They vary greatly in analysis according to the amount of bone ma- terial they contain but are usually. purchased on a guaranteed analysis. The poorer grades containing quan- tities of hoof and horn should not be tolerated as poultry feed as these pro- ducts (hoof and horn) are practically indigestible to poultry. With a little experience, it is possible to tell at a glance whether the brand is suitable for feed or not, but, if in doubt, Pcur a little boiling water on a sample, and the smell arising should settle the matter even with the inexperienced. If the odor is foetid the sample is unfit for food. How Livestock Producer Loses In its latest issue, the Live Stock and Meat Trade Review again returns to the attack of the uneconomical ha- bit of overloading the livestock mar- kets on Mondays, "Unfortunately," says the Review, "the foolish practice of offering the bulk of the week's supply on the :Monday tnarket was again very strongly in evidence, with a more or less disastrous effect upon prices paid, and certainly increasing the cost of marketing tothe produc- er through daily holdovers. During the hot months, buyers' needs hi big meats are mostly quite moderate and result isthat �t i often the i s of of a big Monday run they will pick, requirred qualities here and there, and tette bulk' has to be soled as. best they•nray, A. large 'percentage ;of the poorer end of, the stock lois small Commercial value, In TOWN HALL :Afternoon at 3.30 o'clock, DE WILLO INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS' �a De :Willa Semerau Concertina Artist: Maria Matyas - Mezzo -Soprano.

Fish Meal for Poultry The results of an experiment con- ducted for: five years at the Dominion Experimental Farm show that fish meal is an excellent substitute for 'All- ier protein feeds for poultry, and that it is as good as beef scrap or beef meal for the poultry ration. During f the test there was no complaint from f consumers as to any fishiness or aff- ' flavor in the eggs. The Bumble Flower -Beetle On Fruit and Corn At the present time' a considerable number of. inquiries ai:e being receiv- ed from farmers about a beetle—the Bumble Flower -Beetle or Brown Fruit Chafer,' which is attacking corn and riperiiiig• fruit: ' This :insect is a yel- low-brown beetle, one-half inch or more in length, with its wing covers sprinkled`all over with small irregular spots: In late, 'summer .it is found ev- ery year, in greater or less number,, feeding on the pollen- of flowers, on ripe fruit—peaches; pears, grapes and apples—and aisd 'on corn, but it 'is rarely responsible for serious damage. It has not been observed that the in- sect has caused commercial injury in Ontario, and consequently the Domin- ion 'Entomological . Laboratory at Vineland Station, Ont., has never had occasion to advise the adoption of any control measures, other than hand-pickm of, She beetles, Farmers Must,IProduce To ithe man, in the . street, any at- tempts to increase production in these. days of depressing world surpluses seems a waste of time,.or even worse. He forgets, says Mr. L. H. Newman, Dominion ceirealist, that the problem of the individual farmei differs vastly from that of the nation as a whole, in that the capacity of the farmer to carry on and pay his way is measur- ed in no small degree by; the yields he realizes per acre. .To the farmer, the acre is his *unit 6f production. If his average yields per acre, whether converted into milk, mutton or beef, • or disposed of in their raw state, are not sufficiently high to enable him to meet his obligations, he must eith- er succumb 'entirely or.' be forced to adopt a standard of living which re- moves him as an important factor in the problem bf1keeping'the wheels of commerce moving. • Current Cron Report Dufferin County reports that with plenty of straw and 'a fairly good crop of roots, especially turnips, available, heavy toll recently, • maintenance rations for livestock are assured. Severefrosts have reduced the potato yield materiallyin'the Duf- ferin district, while buckwheat, late corn and garden crops have also suf- fered damage. In Grey County too„ the frost has injured the same crops. Bean yields in Huron will not yield as well as indicated earlier in the sea- son, In Oxford there are 107 farm- ers listed with smut -free wheat seed for sale, the bulk of which is Junior No. 6, with some Dawson's Golden. Chaff and O.A.C. No. 61, Although farmers in Peel have on- ly one-third the hay of last year, the present high prices prevent many dairymen from purchasing. Straw and. molasses, alfalfa straw and corn will provide the roughage this winter. Turnip aphids . have injured the crop- in ropin Waterloo, while cattle are in :lin condition due to poor pasture. Frost for four nights in succession damaged crops in Wellington, with the heaviest loss in the late corn- Yields of oats running up to 100 bus. per acre on four acres have been re- ported there. Turnip aphids have also been active in that district. Essex County reports a great scarcity of, feed, with winter feeding the rule for two months on scores of farms. The yields in Haldimand are much better than anticipated. Potato growers in Lanibton ate trying to establish a price of 50c a bag for potatoes. Frost in Midlesex injured tender plants sunt; as .cucumbers, squash and melons,,,, while hundreds of acres of late sown- buckwheat were ruined, and corn and'. potatoes were also affected, Due to hail and frost, Norfolk's tobacco crop has been reduced from 20 to 14 mil- lion pounds, . ; e i,-" Crop yields have exceeded anticipa— tions in Wentworth. Peaches are: commanding a price ranging fromMc:: to 75c for 6 -qt. baskets. Corn, resofs and buckwheat have shown ,nuch im- provement in Northumberland and the prospect of fodder is much improved. Peterborough reports the heaviest grain yield in five years, with barley running around 40 to 45 bushels per acre and oats 45 to 60 bushels. Bar- ley is a good crop in Carleton and a heavy shipment for malting purposes is taking place, over 65 cars having- been avingbeen shipped to date. Frontenac has had a dry season and buckwheat and ensilage corn will be poor crops. Yields of grain are much better than last year in Lanark, though corn is a. failure in some sections. Leeds has; also felt the ill effects of drought - Over 200,000 lbs. of certified timothy seed wlil be produced in Prescott and' Russell. Crops are better than expect= ed in Renfrew County.
