'TUBERCULOSIS IN CHILDREN
Children have tuberculosis just as
• :adults do. They are not born with
.disease; they contract it after they are
corn. Providing proper care is taken
'cbildren do not contract tuberculosis.
The disease still occurs because, eith-
er through ignorance or carelessness,
the necessary care is not taken.
There is no mystery surrounding
the manner in which children get tu-
:berculosis. The disease is caused by
chief. If expectoration is necessary,
the material expectorated should be
properly collected and destroyed by
fire Common eating and drinking
utensils should not be tolerated and a
child should never be kissedon the
mouth,
To save children, we must become
destroyers of germs and we must re-
fuse to do anything which allows
enemies to pass from one person to
another. Tuberculosis can not occur
if the germs of the disease are not

are not spread from us to others.
When tuberculosis occurs among
children, it means that someone with
whom they have been in frequent con-
tact, has the disease. The older per-
son may not know it, because tuber-
culosis is, in many cases, a long
chronic disease, and the person maybe
just feels poorly and does not suspect
that he has a serious disease, one

Tuberculosis is one disease which
is greatly influenced, if not entirely
controlled by the general health of
the individual. The child who receiv-
es proper food, sufficient rest, fresh
air and sunshine is not likely to de-
velop the disease. On the other hand,
the disease is very apt to progress in
the undernourished tired child who is
in that condition because of the lack
of proper food, rest, fresh air and
sunshine.

and reach the child, and, that is by be-

someone who has tuberculosis.
The person who has active tubercu-
losis, whether or not he knows he has
the disease, has the germ of the di-
sease in his sputum. When he coughs
.or sneezes he spreads the gerrns. The
saliva he leaves on eating or drinking

so help to spread the disease.

New Fear Marirets
Owing to new tariff conditions,.
Western Canadais clamoring for On-
tario Bartlett pears, according to C.
W. Bauer, secretary of the Growers'
Council. Orders have already been
received and Ontario's large Bartlett
pear crop will find profitable outlets
in the West as well as in Great Bri-
tain, where, according to Andrew
Fulton, 'Growers' representative, the
market for Bartlett pears is unusually
good this year. The crop in Eng-
land and Europe is short and like-
wise in .many of the American pro-
ducing sections, The canners' re-
quirements are limited and growers
are advised to: take full advantage of
exporting Bartletts to the West and
to the Old Country. For export pur-
poses, Bartlett pears should be ship-
ped in barrels and half -barrels, and
for. Western markets the standard
pear box should be used.
Weekly Crop Report
Harvesting , throughout Ontario
is practidally completed and, fair
yields have been reported through
the greater part of the province, al-
though yields of oats and barley are
not of as good quality as last year.
Throughout the eastern portion of
the province it has been very dry and
there has been a decided falling off
of milk, butter and cheese. Eggs are
becoming scarce and the price is ad-
vancing. Hogs and lambs are taking
a decided slump in price. Alfalfa and
red clover seed threshing has been
in progress and very fair yields re-
ported. Prices for all farm produce
are exceptionally low.

Fair Grants to be Cut
Hon. Thomas L. Kennedy is serv-
ing an ultimatum upon Fall Fair As-
sociations in Ontario that unless they
discontinue their practice of looking
chiefly to Queen's Park for financial
assistance, the usual . Government
grants will not be forthcoming in
1932. He is convinced that many of
the fairs show too little pride in
themselves, that they would sooner
ask the Go'verrneet for help than
their own municipalities. Consequent-
ly he is taking steps to alter that at-
titude. This year the ostialgrants
will be made, but next year the Gov-
ernment will give a fair no more mon-
ey than the fair's municipality gives.
On the present basis of contribution,
several fairs at least would have to
suspend operations. The Government
contributes between $80,000 and
$100,000 a season in supporting these
fairs. Under the new policy a con-
siderable part of the expenditure will
be saved, which is in line with the
general policy of retrenchment in the
department.
20 per cent, increase. ,over the 1930
yield. Plunge and prunes indicate a
reduction of approximately 17 per
cent., while grapes show an increase
in both Ontario and British Colum-
bia,
Ontario is by far the largest pro-
ducer of tobacco among the prov-
inces of Canada, having contributed
28,600,000 pounds of a grand total of
86,700,000 pounds for all Canada last
year. In all, 32,805 acres were devot-
ed to tobacco -raising in Ontario last
year,
Central Canada Show
A record number of 294 entries was.
made in the judging competition in
live stock at the Central Canada Ex-
hibition in Ottawa last week. Com-
petitors in this department as well as
those in the Household Science Judg-
ing Competitions, numbering about
400, were entertained at dinner by
the Ottawa Kiwanis Club, when Dr.
G. I. Christie was guest speaker, Jun-
ior features of the program were
judging of ,grain and roots and also
showmanship competitions. A total
of 66 young men entered in the form-
er competition, while about ninety
young men demonstrated their skill
in handling live stock. Keen interest
was taken in inter -county pens of
market lambs and bacon hogs.
Premier's Message
"You must put your hands to the
rlow and solve this problem for your-
selves, by raising greater crops and
finer live stock such as will command
the markets of the world," was the
advice given to people of rural On-
tario by Premier Henry in his open-
ing address at the Central Canada
Exhibition,. Ottawa. He urged them
to be patient with their municipal re-
presentatives at this time in regard
tc, the load of taxation caused by im-
proved educational facilities and good
road expenditure. Speaking of rural
hydro expansion, the Premier stated
this this year the Hydro Commission
would construct an additional 2,000
miles of rural power lines, doubling
its mileage.' A flat service charge:not
to exceed $30 a year was made pos-
sible to the farmer through Govern-
ment assistance in Hydro develop-
ment without which a prohibitive
charge, of $100 a year at least would
have to be made.
Beans in Elgin
Elgin County Bean Field Day was
held recently on, the farm of J. J.
Johnston, Wardsville. On this farm
several fertility demonstration plots
are located under direction of the De-
partment of Chemistry, O. A. C. Fer-
tility tests on beans showed a large
difference in yield and maturity be
twesn the best fertility plot and the
check plot. Speaking of beans, Pro-
fessor Caesar was in Elgin County
recently investigating what proved to
be al serious outbreak of green clov-
er worm on field beans. This insect
is of the Noctuid type, but differs in
habit from the common cutworms.
Many fields were found infected with
this worm and in many cases the en-
tire field destroyed. It also attacked
turnips fields and in the later plant-
ings especially it did immense dam-
age and practically stripped away all
the leaves and ruined entire fields.
The inroads of the little green worm
were found as far north as Lake Hur-
on and few patches of turnips and
no fields of beans were found to be
immune. No further damage is ex-
pected as the larvae have begun to
pupate.

Baled Hay
Good quality baled hay is quite ex-
tensively used in Eastern United
States centres and the demand ap-
pears to be increasing. Ontatio far-
mers who can .grow good crops of
alfalfa hay may expect to find a fair
market for their surplus in this way.
Other types of hay well put up will
also find a certain trade demand.
It has been brought to our atten-
tion that a large amount of the Can-
adian hay meets with considerable
disfavor upon. arrival in United States
centres. The chief complaints are the
site of bate and tightness of pressing.
Bales of from 140 to 190 pounds are
not uncommon.
One of the largest exporters has
definitely instructed liis buyers to
give preference to farms who put
their hay up in looser bales of from
110 to 140 pounds. As a matter of
fact, bales of from 90 to 110 pounds
are preferred by certain trades on ac-
count of their ease of handling. Bales
that are too tightly pressed tend to
become matted and are difficult to
tear apart. Musty bales are found al-
so in some instances and are quite
out of place in any good trade.
Indications point to a somewhat
draggy market for baled hay this
year. It is quite apparent, therefore,
that the better quality, suitably baled
material will find better sale than
poorer quality, tightly pressed, badly
tnatted hay in heavy bales.

THE JEALOUSY OF THE JEWS.

course, the same sermon, but the
same message. Might be spoken to
them the next sabbath. The true
word of God, which Paul proclaimed,
speaks to the deepest needs of men's
hearts.
Now when the congregation broke
up. The congregation was, as usual,
dismissed by the chief ruler, as re-
presenting the priestly office, pro-
nouncing the beautiful benediction of
the old wilderness time, used, ever
since, in the tabernacle, temple, and
synagogue to this day: "The Lord
bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord
make His face to shine upon thee,
and be gracious unto thee: The Lord
lift up His countenance upon thee,
and give thee peace. (Num. 6:24-
26.) Many of the Jews and of the
devout proselytes followed Paul and
Barnabas. The proselytes were con-
verts to Judaism from heathenism.
Who, speaking to thein, urged them
to contitnue'in the grace of God. This
probably summarizes the evangelistic
work of Paul and Barnabas through
the week, since they would nqt con-
fine their labors to the Sabbath,

Paul. They would deny Paul's claims

This rule is important at all times, but especially so at dusk and
at night.
At such times, no matter how careful the driver of a car is, he
may not see you until he is very near to you and it may be impos-
sible for him to stop in time to avoid inflicting serious injury.
Should he swerve to avoid hitting you, though you may escape
injury others may be hurt.
Of the 5 24 fatalities on the highways of Ontario last year a large
