Some .of these havens for the sick and injured of northern Ontario are in danger of being forc- ed to close their doors unless finan- cial help is forthcoming. The need for their services is greater than ev- er before because, though times are hard in towns and cities, conditions are harder by far in the isolated lit- tle communitiees where the settlers strive for a foothold in' a new coun- try. Sickness and discouragement follow 'closely on the footsteps of hard times. Then it is that the Red at the lig z.: ' ails Unscour ed Yarns 40c lb. Scoured Yarns (Grey and Mottled) ..50c lb.

Cross nurse is most sorely needed to bring her trained nursing skill, her sympathy and practical help •to the people, • Just what are the Red Cross Out- posts Hospitals? Where are they? What do they do? Extending over an area of hund- • reds of square miles in the new sec- tions of •Ontario, giving the only hos- pital and trained nursing care avail- able to thousands of settlers are 24 Red Cross Outpost Hospitals. They are maintained, by the Red Cross, owned and equipped by !peal bran- ' ches of the Society, financed by gifts 'from all over -the province, and dir- ected from Ontario Red Cross Head- quarters in Toronto. 11 of these are single nurse Outposts where one nurse"holds the fort" and lives am- ong the people, ready to meet any emergency and put her trained nurs- ing skill at their service at all times. This is a work that appeals to all Ontario. The' people of the larger cities of the province have contribut- ed generously; the people of the lit- tle settlements surrounding the Out- posts have done all that they are able. Friends and members of the Red. Cross have rallied to the Cause and have given more than ever be- fore. But the need is so great in the lonely out -lying sections of the pro- vince that the Red Cross is putting forward a widespread appeal to keep the nurses in the North where they are so urgently needed. It 'is but drops of water (enough of them) that,make the sea. A dol- lar, or part of one (and enough of them) will .make a grand total that will enable the Red Cross to keep the doors of the little' hospitals op- en, the nurses at their posts ready to minister to the sick.

Broughton, Ontario Department of Agriculture. "While ° a certain am- ount of maggot injury has come to my. attention, the crop in general is showing good growth. So 'far as brown heart and water core are con- cerned, I may say that very little of either has been reported. Advice. from Federal authorities indicates that the crop in Prince Edward Is- land has been seriously affected' by Brown heart." Weekly Crop Report' Splendid crops of mangels and turnips have been reported from nearly every part of the proving Considerable rot among potatoes has been in evidence as . result of late blight. Growers who sprayed care- fully through the season with Bor- deaux are not experiencing this con- dition to any great extent.

SrnalIer numbers of grubs but of serious con- sequence 'can be expected to' be pre- sent in land which was in small grains or weedy hoed crop on lighter land in Time and July of 1932. The smallest number of grubs is to be expected in land clean of crop or well, cared for boed crop during the flight period of the beetles; while heavy clay or clay loam can be con- sidered as likely to 'be comparative- ly free of .white grubs, irrespective of crop or culture in the spring of 1932.
