Goo Apple Season
'4th practically the whole of last
year's apple crop marketed, it may
be assttmedx according to P. W. Hod-
getts, that Ontario growers .have had
pan excellent season The balk of the
Ben. Davis were disposed of in contin-
1 ental European markets, with the ex-
ception
$ of a thousand barrels which
went to South America. Apple mar-
keting conditions have been restored
more or less to normal with the grad-
ual opening up of a. new market 'in
Europe and the displacement of Ben
Davis with much better varieties. Al-
though the crop has been only fait in
quantity, prices have been quite satis-
factory. As a result,. the general Year
is regarded with a good deal more en-
thusiasm than in several years past.
With regard to 1931, prospects seem
quite good. AU fruit trees, went into
the winter in first-class shape and
there was no excessive moisture last
fall.

From every stormy wind that blows,,
From every swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat;
'Tis found beneath the mercy -seat.
There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads,
A place than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood -bought mercy -seat.
There is a place where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with
friend;
Though sundered far; by faith they
meet
Around one common mercy -seat.
AM .whither could we flee for aid
When tempted,, desolate,. dismayed?
Or how the hosts of help defeat,
Had suffering saints no .mercy -seat?
There, there on eagle wings we soar;.
And sin and sense molest no more;
And heaven comes down our souls to
greet,
While glory crowns the mercy -seat.
This picturesque and striking hymn
first appeared in the first number of
an • illustrated annual publication, en-
titled. "The Winter's Wreath," pub-
lished in 1828 by a .then well-known
and popular clergyman, the Reverend
Canon Hugh Stowell,'.Mf.A., curate di

with the Reverend Canon Thomas Al-
fred Stowell, also of Salford and a 1

Hon. Thomas L. ennedy, Minister of
Agriculture, recently stated, in an-

Boosting Ontario Products
The success achieved by Onion
Week demonstrates the possibilities
that He behind a well -organized and
ably -directed -campaign for the sale
of home grown faun products. The
onion growers started out with the
idea of bettering their position by
their eo.'n efforts and have found
that such a worthwhile enterprise
gains friends and supporters as it pro-
ceeds. Mans are now under way for
promoting the consumption of home-
grown carrots and cabbage. The net
result of these efforts must be to re -1
duce the amount of foreign -grown i
produce sold on Canadian markets, 11
The Department is endeavoring to i
play an important part in this work
by means of its daily noon broadcasts
fiver station CKGW, Toronto, which l
are eagerly listened to by thousands
of Ontario families.

tari�, which has made a careful study

It was that ability to recognize the

things, which helped to win for Hugh
Stowell his great reputation as a di -

He republished the hymn.. which.

tone,entitled ,'A Selection of Psalms
and Hymns, Suited to the Services of
the Church of England." Many edi-

and several additional hymns mostly
by Canon Stowell were added in the
course of years.
Most of his hymns were written for
anniversaries and other' special Sun-

was an enthusiast in all he _ undertook;.'teens, at twenty-two was conducting
and in nothing more so than in his i singing -school, • and ` became well-
Sunday
school work. He mustered !known as a trainer
c1 and director• of
nearly two thousand -children' in . his church choirs. In 1832 he was estate -
schools and built up a strong' trained ; lished in New York as choir -master
organization to look up and instruct
the lambs of his Master's fold. In
Lancashire, Eng., his children's by
rims, especially: "Children of Old Ho-
sannah Sang," "Jesus is Our Shep-
herd," "Gracious God, Look Down in
Kindness," were and probably are
still exceedingly popular, Shortly be-
fore his death in 1865 he -wrote his
last hymn,' "Pilgrims in the Narrow
Way" for the anniversary of Christ's
Church Sunday school.
Canon Stowell was born in 1799 in
the little Isle of Man, where his fa-
ther was rector of Ballaugh near
Ramsey, his birthplace being the well
known seaside resort, Douglas. Edu-
cated at local schools and at Oxford,
he served in several curacies before
his appointment in charge of St. Ste-
phen's Salford, then as rector of
Christ's Church, Salford, itn 1831, and
honorary canon of Chester. He wrote
and published several theological and
poetical works, and a large number
of sermons which were greatly in de-
mand. seventy and eighty years ago
It is however, by his hymns he is
chiefly remembered now, and some
of these are only la recent years find-
ing their way into the hymn -books
The tune "Retreat" was written for
this hymn by Dr. Thomas Hastings,
one of that group of United, States
musicians often referred to in these
articles, comprising Dr. Lowell -Ma-
son, W. 13. Bradbury, W. H. Doane,
and later, Phillip Phillips, P. P, Bliss
and Ira D. Sankey, These men pop-
ularized religious singing by setting
s n
Sacred songs tocatchy, e asil )''- u g
music, and sometimes by holding
singing schools in' various sections
where large numbers of people were
taught the principles of harmony and
singing by note,
Tilonnas Hastings, born in 1784,
cvas brought up on n farm hi Clinton,
N.Y., and was educated at a district
school. As a little chap he became
the posscs< r of a ten cent music hook
of: four pages from which he acquir-
ed' a knovviedgeof the rudiments of
music, He became the musical ttu-
tlinrity of hie neighborhood in his
of an important church, and hadbe-
come well known as a composer and
compiler of song and music books.
He wrote a large 'number of hymn-
tunes for special hymns, including the
well known Toplady to "Rock of
Ages."
The University of New York con
ferred its degree of Doctor of Music.
upon him in 1858, as a recognition
of his services to the musical arts
Dr. Hastings also wrote several hy-
mns, the best known being: "Return,:
O Wanderer, to Thy Home," and
"Today the Saviour Calls." He died
in 1872.
