Car Cranked in Gear Causes Damage Mr. Harry Thompson of Wingham, who with his wife and family is sum- mering at thelake here, started some- thing which he will have to finish by way of a repair bill when ha cranked his Essex ,sedan which he had left parked in reverse gear alongside of Reuber's hardware on Saturday morn- ing last. The starter failing to turn over the engine when he wished to put the machine in motion, he pulled down on the gas lever, grabbed the crank and endeavored to do by rims- / cular arm work what the battery had, miserably failed in. Unfortunately he u ee s cc ded, .for, with the car in reverse gear and the gas lever pulled down low it only required the spark plugs to function to cause trouble, which they did at about the first turn of the crank. The front wheels of the car were well cramped towards the side of the building, and when the gas ignited, setting the engine in motion, the car suddenly shot away from Mr. Thomp- son and it its backward flight struck the rear of. Mr. Reuber's Oakland se- dan which was parked about five feet distant, denting the rear fender and ripping the bumperette off the bus. It then circled the corner, gaining mo- mentum as it went, and side-swipped Mr. Lionel Shipley's Hudson coupe, which was parked near Mr. A. F. George's store, crumpling a front fen- der and bending the bumper. There is about a seven .inch raise to the sidewalk in front of Mr. George's store and over this the Essex went with great speed, a cement ledge in front of the store, which is built about 8 inches above the sidewalk and above which was a shelf on which Mr: Geo- rge exhibits certain of his wares, be- ing the only thing that kept it from crashing through his South window, When the car struck this ledge and shelf the latter was shattered to pier-, es, the impact shifting the window frame back about three inches with- out having broken the glass. Mr. George has to have the frame shifted back to its original position before he could close and lock the front door. The car also missed several child- ren by a narrow margin in its wild rambling. —Port Elgin Tithes. MATT. GAYNER AUCTIONEER Phone 21 or 64 Lucknow. iN MEIVIORTAM Sales attended to anywhere.

Canadian dealers are urging that the attention of farmers in hay pro- ducing districts be brought to this fault. The bulk of baled hay is used by carters and trackmen, who have to carry the bales some distance to get them to the .feeding loft. when a bale runs 150 lbs. or more in weight this is a heavy job, so heavy in fact that the buyer will pass up the heavy bale for one which he can handle with greater ease. The popular demand in the hay market today is for the light three wire bale weighing around 120 lbs,, Farmers in hay districts who are us- ing presses are urged to give atten- tion to the stated preference of deal- ers and buyers in the hay market. In a good year for hay almost any kind of a bale can be sold, but with market conditions such as they are this year and with the restricted outlet which prevails, every attention should be given to putting up bales of hay of a weight desired � g si ed by the market. Tomatoes For West Tomato shipments on a large scale from Southern Ontario to the West- ern Canada market represent a new development confidently expected as the result of recent orders for seven carloads of the fruit, especially pack- ed. The consignment, according , to Charles W. Bauer, secretary of the Growers' Market Council, is to go. forward packed in lugs and paper wrappers and he anticipates the day when a large proportion of the Ontar- io product will be marketed in this manner. Fall Wheat Growers! Fall wheat growers have two prob- lems of primary importance to consid- er, according to George R; ...Paterson feed and fertilizer distribution expert: 1. What air I going to do with the crop just harvested? Mr. Paterson be- lieves that farmers will feed what they can to cattle, hogs and poultry. Wheat when supplemented, with other grains and supplementary concentrat- es may readily be utilized both in. dairy cattle and hog rations. The re- turns at present prices of dairy. pro- ducts and pork might well be consid- ered as definitely more than the pres- ent farm price of wheat. As a feed for dairy cattle, wheat should be sup- plemented with some protein, rich feed and it will give best results when. mixed' with bran and oats, Also for swine, wheat may be fed as high as one-quarter the ration in growing pigs. Wheat is also a standard part of poultry scratch. Ground wheat may also substitute for shorts in the ntash. Shall I sow fall wheat this year and if so, can I afford to fertilize it and what fertilizer shall I use? Mr. Paterson regards this problem as a matter of commonsense. The farmer who has practised a good system of soil management and followed a suit- able rotation will be well advised to make a moderate- application of phos- phoric acid. Potash may be required where clovers and manure have been sparingly used in the previous rota- tion may be valuable. But generally speaking, phosphoric acid should form the basis of a fall wheat fertilizer pro. gram. Tommy -."Mother let me go to .the zoo to see the monkeys.".` Mother "Why, Tommy, what and ideal Imagine wanting to go to see Ithe monkeys when your Aunt Betsy is here," Clever French Gypsies Prey on the Ignorant Superstition still flourishes in 1'rauce asa thriving commercial proposition, despite the advance of general educa- tion. Apparently any gypsy with a fluent tongue can make an easy though dishonest living. The latest example is reported from a village near Amiens, writes . the Paris 'correspondent of the London Daily Telegraph, where a tradeswoman, M.me. Dobersecq, has been swindled oi' $1,200 by two for- tune tellers. The first gypsy appeared under the mise of a hawker of lace. As she dis- played her wares she mentioued that there had been many fires inthe dis- trict, and that it was under the curse of a particularly malicious demon. Having thus aroused the tradeswomr an's interest, she offered to tell heij if she herself was threatened. Taking three hairs from Mme, Do.' bersecq's head and wrapping them in paper, she burnt them. Mme. Dober- secq .swears that before the ashes( dropped to the ground she saw on the scorched paper a sign of a cloven hoof. That made up her mind for her.She paid the gypsy $300, which the latter said she would return after the notes had been blessed with magic rites: Later another gypsy called upon Mme. Dobersecq, and said that they. were having trouble with the evil spir- it, A much larger sum would have to be blessed before the spell could be broken. As she was given . to un- derstand.that her own daughter was threatened by the powers of darkness, the tradeswoman handed over $900 more. Rosemary a Figure on All Pages of History Rosemary is a plant of the mint family and grows in the region of the Mediterranean sea. It is a low shrub like plant with Iinear leaves, dark green above, white beneath, and with margins rolled back on to the under face. The Sowers grow in clusters and the fruit consists of four nutlets. Rosemary was valued in ancient times for its aromatic quality and medicinal uses, but is now used mainly ' for ita. perfume. As an emblem of remem- brance, rosemary plays an important part In folklore and: literature. In Shakespeare's „Hamlet," Aphelia says: "There's rosemary; that's for remembrance." According to tradition this herb strengthens the memory, ar was also used a great deal at one time to quiet the nerves. It was often used at weddings, and to wear rose- mary was always taken to be sig- nificant of a wedding. The nurse, in Shakespeare's "Romeo and 7uliet," re- fers to the emblematical characteris- tics'of the herb, when she asks: "Doth not rosemary and. Romeo begin both with a (one) letter?" According to the language of -flowers it means "Fi- delityin delft love." " • Height of Eucalyptus The statement is tirade that the Australian eucalyptus attains a height of 400 feet, but a member of the forest products laboratory star(, who spent a year in Australia not long ago, used the opportunity to check up on some of the basic feet& The tallest Aus- tralian tree he actually measured was 310 feet, and he satisfied himself that the tallest tree ever measured with ac- curacy in that country was a eucalyp- tus regnans, or "mountain ash," that grew at Colac, Victoria, and was 346 feet high. A prize offered at the Mel- bourne exposition in 1888 for proof of the tallest tree standing at that time was won on evidence for a eucalypt 325 feet high. Measurements by a well-known forester gave 363 feet for the height of a redwood growing in Bull Creek Flat, Calif. This Is the tallest tree in the world on which there is authentic" and reliable infor. ration. Chopin's Ancestry The grandfather of C iopin--named Shop (Szop)—at one time migrated. to France, and there Chopin's father was born, writes a correspondent to a Philadelphia paper. By that time they added that "in" at the end of their name to "Frenchify" it. Then the family moved back to Poland, where young Szopen—that is the way they spelled it—was born in Zelazowa Wola, At that time there was a great deal of such migration, So Chopin or, to. spell it correctly, Szopen-the: same pronunciation—vas born in Poland of Polish parents, from a Polish family, and was a Polish patriot. Quotation on Verbosity The celebrated quotation on verbos- ity was delivered by Benjamin Dis- raeli in a speech made 1n London on July 27, 1878. Ile was referring to his great rival Gladstone, who he said was: "A sophisticated rhetorician, in- ebriated with the exuberance of his Own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command en Interminable and inconsistent series of argureente to malign an opponent and to glorify himself:" Ariforiculturral The magazine Tree Talk' Saye that trees commit suielde by wrapping their roots around their trunks raid choking themselves 'to death.

WAR DEBTS The Canadian Forum Canadians have little direct inter- est in the question of international war debts and reparations. Canada has been receiving a few millions each year from Germany, but, the a- mount involved constitutes an, insig- nificant part of our -' annual budget Our share of the cost of the war was raised almost entirely through domes- tic loans and consequently the bulk of our payments on account of war in- debtedness remains within the bord- ers of .our own country. On the other hand while countries like Germany' and Russia were able through infla- tion to entirely wipe out their dome- stic war loans, and France and Italy reduced theirs by about 75 per cent, we, in Canada, deflated our dollar af- ter the war, and as -a result we have to pay a great deal more than our war actually cost, A recent article in the Financial Post estimates that, before we are finished, the final cost of the war to us may exceed eight billion dollars, which means, on the basis of our present population, a cost to each individual of eight hundred dollars, or .betw'en three and four thousand dol- lars ol lars for the average family. More than two billion has been added to our capital debt and our annual in- terest payment in this sum amounts to over one hundred and twelve mil- lions or about fifty dollars a year out of every family budget. If the, holdings of war loans were fairly ev- enly distributed throughout our pop- ulation it would be a matter of indif- ference whether our war loans were large or small in fact we might cancel the lot and nobody would be one whit better or the worse. But of course this is far from being the case In our highy competitive system mon- ey naturally gravitates towards those people who already have most of the money, and although `victory bonds' were widely distributed when they were first issued, most of them are now held in large blocks by a compar- atively small group of wealthy people Two-thirds of our annual bill for war costs goes to meet interest charges, so that when we talk about 'Canada' paying forthe war we really mean that ninety-five per cent of us have to foot the billand five per cent of us pocket the proceeds.

Advise Use of Flail In a recent memorandum with res- pect to the preparation of seed for exhibition purposes L. H. Newman, Dominion Cerealist, gave the follow- ing advice regarding threshing: "The method of threshing the ex- hibition grain is a matter of import- ance. A very good plan is to flail the sheaves out on the ground near the stooks or stack, on a bright sunny day. Only a very feW strokes of the flail should be given each sheaf as the large, well developed kernels will roll out first. The kernels remaining in the sheaf may be threshed out lat- er in the ordinary way."

Canadian dealers are urging that the attention of farmers in hay pro- ducing districts be brought to this fault. The bulk of baled hay is used by carters and trackmen, who have to carry the bales some distance to get them to the .feeding loft. when a bale runs 150 lbs. or more in weight this is a heavy job, so heavy in fact that the buyer will pass up the heavy bale for one which he can handle with greater ease. The popular demand in the hay market today is for the light three wire bale weighing around 120 lbs,, Farmers in hay districts who are us- ing presses are urged to give atten- tion to the stated preference of deal- ers and buyers in the hay market. In a good year for hay almost any kind of a bale can be sold, but with market conditions such as they are this year and with the restricted outlet which prevails, every attention should be given to putting up bales of hay of a weight desired � g si ed by the market. Tomatoes For West Tomato shipments on a large scale from Southern Ontario to the West- ern Canada market represent a new development confidently expected as the result of recent orders for seven carloads of the fruit, especially pack- ed. The consignment, according , to Charles W. Bauer, secretary of the Growers' Market Council, is to go. forward packed in lugs and paper wrappers and he anticipates the day when a large proportion of the Ontar- io product will be marketed in this manner. Fall Wheat Growers! Fall wheat growers have two prob- lems of primary importance to consid- er, according to George R; ...Paterson feed and fertilizer distribution expert: 1. What air I going to do with the crop just harvested? Mr. Paterson be- lieves that farmers will feed what they can to cattle, hogs and poultry. Wheat when supplemented, with other grains and supplementary concentrat- es may readily be utilized both in. dairy cattle and hog rations. The re- turns at present prices of dairy. pro- ducts and pork might well be consid- ered as definitely more than the pres- ent farm price of wheat. As a feed for dairy cattle, wheat should be sup- plemented with some protein, rich feed and it will give best results when. mixed' with bran and oats, Also for swine, wheat may be fed as high as one-quarter the ration in growing pigs. Wheat is also a standard part of poultry scratch. Ground wheat may also substitute for shorts in the ntash. Shall I sow fall wheat this year and if so, can I afford to fertilize it and what fertilizer shall I use? Mr. Paterson regards this problem as a matter of commonsense. The farmer who has practised a good system of soil management and followed a suit- able rotation will be well advised to make a moderate- application of phos- phoric acid. Potash may be required where clovers and manure have been sparingly used in the previous rota- tion may be valuable. But generally speaking, phosphoric acid should form the basis of a fall wheat fertilizer pro. gram. Tommy -."Mother let me go to .the zoo to see the monkeys.".` Mother "Why, Tommy, what and ideal Imagine wanting to go to see Ithe monkeys when your Aunt Betsy is here," Clever French Gypsies Prey on the Ignorant Superstition still flourishes in 1'rauce asa thriving commercial proposition, despite the advance of general educa- tion. Apparently any gypsy with a fluent tongue can make an easy though dishonest living. The latest example is reported from a village near Amiens, writes . the Paris 'correspondent of the London Daily Telegraph, where a tradeswoman, M.me. Dobersecq, has been swindled oi' $1,200 by two for- tune tellers. The first gypsy appeared under the mise of a hawker of lace. As she dis- played her wares she mentioued that there had been many fires inthe dis- trict, and that it was under the curse of a particularly malicious demon. Having thus aroused the tradeswomr an's interest, she offered to tell heij if she herself was threatened. Taking three hairs from Mme, Do.' bersecq's head and wrapping them in paper, she burnt them. Mme. Dober- secq .swears that before the ashes( dropped to the ground she saw on the scorched paper a sign of a cloven hoof. That made up her mind for her.She paid the gypsy $300, which the latter said she would return after the notes had been blessed with magic rites: Later another gypsy called upon Mme. Dobersecq, and said that they. were having trouble with the evil spir- it, A much larger sum would have to be blessed before the spell could be broken. As she was given . to un- derstand.that her own daughter was threatened by the powers of darkness, the tradeswoman handed over $900 more. Rosemary a Figure on All Pages of History Rosemary is a plant of the mint family and grows in the region of the Mediterranean sea. It is a low shrub like plant with Iinear leaves, dark green above, white beneath, and with margins rolled back on to the under face. The Sowers grow in clusters and the fruit consists of four nutlets. Rosemary was valued in ancient times for its aromatic quality and medicinal uses, but is now used mainly ' for ita. perfume. As an emblem of remem- brance, rosemary plays an important part In folklore and: literature. In Shakespeare's „Hamlet," Aphelia says: "There's rosemary; that's for remembrance." According to tradition this herb strengthens the memory, ar was also used a great deal at one time to quiet the nerves. It was often used at weddings, and to wear rose- mary was always taken to be sig- nificant of a wedding. The nurse, in Shakespeare's "Romeo and 7uliet," re- fers to the emblematical characteris- tics'of the herb, when she asks: "Doth not rosemary and. Romeo begin both with a (one) letter?" According to the language of -flowers it means "Fi- delityin delft love." " • Height of Eucalyptus The statement is tirade that the Australian eucalyptus attains a height of 400 feet, but a member of the forest products laboratory star(, who spent a year in Australia not long ago, used the opportunity to check up on some of the basic feet& The tallest Aus- tralian tree he actually measured was 310 feet, and he satisfied himself that the tallest tree ever measured with ac- curacy in that country was a eucalyp- tus regnans, or "mountain ash," that grew at Colac, Victoria, and was 346 feet high. A prize offered at the Mel- bourne exposition in 1888 for proof of the tallest tree standing at that time was won on evidence for a eucalypt 325 feet high. Measurements by a well-known forester gave 363 feet for the height of a redwood growing in Bull Creek Flat, Calif. This Is the tallest tree in the world on which there is authentic" and reliable infor. ration. Chopin's Ancestry The grandfather of C iopin--named Shop (Szop)—at one time migrated. to France, and there Chopin's father was born, writes a correspondent to a Philadelphia paper. By that time they added that "in" at the end of their name to "Frenchify" it. Then the family moved back to Poland, where young Szopen—that is the way they spelled it—was born in Zelazowa Wola, At that time there was a great deal of such migration, So Chopin or, to. spell it correctly, Szopen-the: same pronunciation—vas born in Poland of Polish parents, from a Polish family, and was a Polish patriot. Quotation on Verbosity The celebrated quotation on verbos- ity was delivered by Benjamin Dis- raeli in a speech made 1n London on July 27, 1878. Ile was referring to his great rival Gladstone, who he said was: "A sophisticated rhetorician, in- ebriated with the exuberance of his Own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command en Interminable and inconsistent series of argureente to malign an opponent and to glorify himself:" Ariforiculturral The magazine Tree Talk' Saye that trees commit suielde by wrapping their roots around their trunks raid choking themselves 'to death.

WAR DEBTS The Canadian Forum Canadians have little direct inter- est in the question of international war debts and reparations. Canada has been receiving a few millions each year from Germany, but, the a- mount involved constitutes an, insig- nificant part of our -' annual budget Our share of the cost of the war was raised almost entirely through domes- tic loans and consequently the bulk of our payments on account of war in- debtedness remains within the bord- ers of .our own country. On the other hand while countries like Germany' and Russia were able through infla- tion to entirely wipe out their dome- stic war loans, and France and Italy reduced theirs by about 75 per cent, we, in Canada, deflated our dollar af- ter the war, and as -a result we have to pay a great deal more than our war actually cost, A recent article in the Financial Post estimates that, before we are finished, the final cost of the war to us may exceed eight billion dollars, which means, on the basis of our present population, a cost to each individual of eight hundred dollars, or .betw'en three and four thousand dol- lars ol lars for the average family. More than two billion has been added to our capital debt and our annual in- terest payment in this sum amounts to over one hundred and twelve mil- lions or about fifty dollars a year out of every family budget. If the, holdings of war loans were fairly ev- enly distributed throughout our pop- ulation it would be a matter of indif- ference whether our war loans were large or small in fact we might cancel the lot and nobody would be one whit better or the worse. But of course this is far from being the case In our highy competitive system mon- ey naturally gravitates towards those people who already have most of the money, and although `victory bonds' were widely distributed when they were first issued, most of them are now held in large blocks by a compar- atively small group of wealthy people Two-thirds of our annual bill for war costs goes to meet interest charges, so that when we talk about 'Canada' paying forthe war we really mean that ninety-five per cent of us have to foot the billand five per cent of us pocket the proceeds.

Advise Use of Flail In a recent memorandum with res- pect to the preparation of seed for exhibition purposes L. H. Newman, Dominion Cerealist, gave the follow- ing advice regarding threshing: "The method of threshing the ex- hibition grain is a matter of import- ance. A very good plan is to flail the sheaves out on the ground near the stooks or stack, on a bright sunny day. Only a very feW strokes of the flail should be given each sheaf as the large, well developed kernels will roll out first. The kernels remaining in the sheaf may be threshed out lat- er in the ordinary way."
