Puzzle for Horticulturists

mations of fruit that have appeared
on his English cherry tree. Where

yellow in color, with a toughskirt
having an exterior like that of an or-
ange. They are firm at first, but col-
lapse on being squeezed. The inside
of a sac is lined with interwoven
stringy tissue. There is no stone, but
a small sac inside, apparently a carpel,
contains two ovules, Every fruit on
the tree has been transformed, practi-
cally overnight, into one of these
queer growths, some of which are
three inches long,—Goderich Signal.

gress due to plenty of moisture, and
on Monday when The Observer call-

form, and only varies a fraction of an
inch in heighth from measurements
taken at various points in the field,

Walkerton Dogs Are Vicious
A man's best friend may be his dog,
but if some of these friendly critters
which are lavishing so much affection

more harmonious setting to the com-
munity picture, No fewer than three
complaints against these mongrel at-
tacks on citizens were lodged with
Chief Constable Jack Ferguson this
week, and as custodian of the peace"
he may have a painful duty to perform
if the owners of the offending quad-
rupeds don't get busy and permanent-
ly tie up the curs or better still des-
troy then in a humane manner by the
first weapon available. — Walkerton

Experience with Chevrolet:
"NI t ;; RE THAN
SATISFACT t HY"
WE HAVE FOUND that when itcomes to
deciding on new bus or truck equipment,
buyers are most influenced by the experience
of other operators like themselves. That is
why we urge you to read the letter from Mr.
A. P. Collins of Canadian Coach Ways,

the Chevrolet operators in your own corrt.-
munity. You can safely take "the owner's
word" for it—when it's a question of the right
truck to buy for performance, appearance,
freedom from repairs, long life and economy.

Dear Sirs:—
Four years ago we purchased
a Chevrolet utility chassis and
began 'operatirig a bus line be-
tween Athabasca and the city
of Edmonton.
The road in wet weather is a
heavy greasy mud and in dry
weather extremely rough, So
that the operating conditions
are not by any means ideal.
Our Chevrolet gave us little
trouble apart from ordinary
service work Since then we
have secureel three other bus
routes in Alberta and in each
case Chevrolets were placed in
operation.
Our experience with Chevrolet
therefore has been more than
satisfactory.
Yours very truly,
