Thus it is apparent that the Department's policy of promoting the use of fer- tilizers' is bearing fruit. The use of fertilizers in farming has passed the experimental stage in Ontario and thousands of farmers are finding them a practical aid in reducing the cost of production through increas- ing soil efficiency, When used judic- iously they increase .yield and im- prove quality of crops,adding mater- ially to the cash value of production from a given area. It has become in- creasingly important today for a fair measure of success that the farmer make use of every possible opportun- ity to lower his costs of production. The right use of fertilizers suited to particular crops provides one impor- tant opportunity. Are Collections Slow ?

THE CANADIAN SHREDDED WHEAT COMPANY, LTD. WITH ALL THE BRAN OF THE WHALE WHEAT ONTARIO .� essage from the Premier on the subject of Highways and Highway Safety Probably no single development in the history of our province has had more widespread influence upon the lives and habits of our citizens than the automobile. Ontario was one of the first provinces to recognize the importance of 'this modern means of transportation, and first, also to adopt a progres- sive policy of road building and road maintenance. Today, of Ontario's 72,000 miles of roads, more than 38,000 miles are improved gravel, 7,000 miles are paved, and 69 per cent of all roads are surfaced. These roads are not only a remarkable convenience, but, as well, they are a responsibility. The seriv.sness of the responsibility is evidenced by the fact that in Ontario last year, 524 persons lost their lives through automobile accidents. All available statistics would seem to indicate that most of these accidents were avoidable—and were caused by either thoughtlessness or wilful violations of the common-sense rules of the road. The Ontario Department of Highways is about to publish in the press of Ontario, a series of educational advertisements, in which an effort will be made to keep drivers and pedestrians alike, alive to the necessity for the continuous exercise of care, courtesy and common-sense in the use of our highways. Suggestions rade in these announcements will be, in: effect, a digest of all the information gathered from every section of the world which has been found to be of assistance to drivers and pedestrians in avoiding highway accidents and making these same high- ways of inestimably greater value and 'benefit to every citizen. The first of the announcements referred to will be published at an early date. Your attention is invited thereto, and your co-operation in making our streets and highwayssafe is earnestly solicited.
