HU_ ON NOTES -Shortly a ter eleven o'clock on Saturday nigh ' of last week, it was discovered that Bainton Bros: tannery in Blyth, was o fire and immediately the alarm was sounded and although the fire brigade made. tempt re- sponse, considerable damage was done to both the:building and stock. The fire when discov red, was making good headway on th third floor where a large quantity: of wool was stored ready to be putin sacks. The origin of the fire is unknown, but it is pre- sumed to have been caused by a bare electric wire or from the over -heat- ing . of the wool as no fire had been in that section of the building for some time. The estimated loss is up- wards of $20,000; and $3,000 insurance on the buildings and $14,000 .on the contents. -Last .Saturday afternoon as D. Denman, courier on R. R. No. 5, ! Morris was delivering mail at James Shedden's box, hi' •horse pulled off the bridle against t box and getting startled made ofl4. The driver in at- attempting to shop the animal .was caught by the wheel and throws -dela -con receiving a nasty"' wrench of one ankle and othe minor bruises. After a tour alongside the . fene for a few rods, in which,- several spkes came to grief, the horse got int the road, with rig right side up, an trotter,' along until caught one and a half miles west by Garner Nicholson. Things were set to rights and Mr. Denman completed his trip, -Mr. James Lirklater, a well known former resident of the Dake Shore Road, Colborn, passed away Thurs- day morning last at Alexandra hos- pital, Goderich, his death resulting from injuries accidentally sustained the previous morning.He retired from the farm a I few years ago. and had been living in Goderidh, ,laterly with Mr. and Mrsa Thomas McKenzie, -Victoria Street. Wednesday morning he arose at an ear y hour, and in some manner fell from the window of his upstairs bedroom to the ground, below, sustaining very severe injuries. He was taken to Alexandra hospital, where he died a$ above stated. He was in his eightieth year and was not married. The funeral teak place from the residence of his brother, Mr. John Linklater, Caledonia Terrace, on Sat- urday afternoon 'at 2.30 o'clock, to Colborne cemetery. Mr. Linklater be- fore his removal to Goderich resided for many 'years at Leeburn. He was a lctndly old gentleman, with a hearty greeting for his fiends, who will hear of ,his death with'sincere regret. Making the Farm spring More Serviceable. Fortunately a great many fat Triers of Canada can boast of a good spy .ng of water on their; farms. In cases it is the onlF reliable and pe- rennial source of l,water, and when this is the case it usually receive proper care. Probably:., however, i n general, the spring is a secondary consideration as a (water supply. p:i r- ti.c.ularly domestic,! and- consequ en;,ly is let _. "run wild". 'more or less, and" is not, therefore, rendering the ser- vice it might if it were properly equipped. " The object •ot this shirt article is to make is few suggestions for the improvement of springs in general. In the first place, the spring sho ild be enlarged, deepened and elci ned out well and titen eriblzecl t:T) in :;c,•�;e efficient way. Probably the best method is to get a ;large concrete er sewer pipe tile or two, about 214 'feet in diameter, and put them down in the spring, cementing the joints well. Put an overflow pipe through the wall of the upper tile close to the high water mark of the spring. and connect the overflow pipe to a tile drain that leads clown 1.0 a good outlet some distance away. If it is not connected to a drain the open end should be screened. If the spring be in the pasture it should be fenc- ed in and the overflow pipe referred to extended horizontally to a trough outside the fence. The top should be provided with a tight cove;, made of concrete or heavy plank. The spring becomes particularly serviceable if it happens to be located on an elevation considerably greater than the house and barns, for then the water can be piped down under the first line to storage tanks in the buildings. From the tanks the warer flows by gravity to the points of service. Or if fhe 'supply is great enough and a fall of a few feet can be secured within a short distance, say 30 or 40 feet Of the spring, a hydraulic ram me'y be installed for pumping the water of a spring to the house and barns. Usually it is pump- ed into a storage tank in the attic of the house or loft of barn, and from these gravitates to the various plumb- ing - fixtures in the house and the troughs and drinking basins in the stables. If you are particularly in- terested in this subject of the farm spring and how to make it more serviceable write the Department of Agriculture, Toronto, for a copy of Bulletin 267, which tells you all about it. It costs you nothing fol the information except a• postal card and a two -cent pbsta,ge stamp. - R. R. Graham, B.S.A., O. A. Collegs, Guelph. ADVICE FOR THE MOTORIST In his book for the motorist( small Maynard & Co.,) Barney Oldfield gives the following advice to motorists: Always keep your car under perfect control. . Become thoroughly familiar with your local traffic regulations and fol- low them to the letter. Practice shifting gears until you know instinctively from the car's speed just when you should make each shift. Put the gears in second speed when driving in heavy traffic where sudden starting and , stoping is necessary. Speed up on approaching a hill. Drive using the .lower gears. Shift- ing of the gears really shows a good driver and at the same time oftten prevents stalling the engine in a dangerous place. Never speed your engine up dur- ing the first two hundred miles of its life. Consider the roan in the other car. Drive slowly at turns in the road, in order to have sufficient time to avoid a vehicle that is coming to- ward you. Drive slowly at crossroads for an- other car may be coming, attempting INDIGESTION AND CO.N STIPATION Quickly ne10ea By "Fruit -u -tees" I •ooHON, P. Q.

Affected plants automobile accidents. - Stop when there is an accident, whether it is your fault or not, and render all the assistanc*possible. Sound the horn when approaching a turn in the road, or the brow of a hill, for another car m4y be coming toward you. In passing a car fromthe rear, al- ways sqund your horn, as the driver 'of the car may be unintentionally cut- in ahead of you. Accustom yourself to the use of the bakes. Learn to judge distances and speed at which a car travels. Ability to estimate speed may prey -ent accidents. Don't forget, . above all else, that an automobile is a fine piece; of machinery and that you will be• repaid in excel- lence of service many times for •the care and attention given" it.

How to Detect Db. eases and Only Way -to Control Thein. (Contributed by- Ontario Department of ill Agriculture, Toronto.) HE' two most serious seed - borne potato diseases in Ontario are Leaf Roll and Mosaic, Other seed -borne potato diseases common in the Pro- vince are Black Leg, Rhizoctonia, Blight, .Wilt and Scab. Leaf Roll and Mosaic case a very marked reduc- tion in the yield, and the fact that (these two diseases are so prevalent in Southern Ontario accounts for the poor crop of potatoes that has beta obtained in many parts of the Pro- vince for the past four years. Leaf Roll. -The cause of this dis- ease is unknown. Data gathered by the pathologiste of the United States .and Canada shows that Leaf Roll are always more or less dwarfed and in some varieties the leaves assume a characteristic ° upright, almost star- ing habit, instead of drooping over in the normal way. Rolling of the 1ow- er leaves is always associated with the disease. The rolled leaves on plants affected with this disease begin to die •early. The harsh, leathery texture of such leaves is a constant symptom. The tubers of affected plants are small and are borne gen- erally on very short tuber -branches (stolons) or even attached in a clus- ter to the stem. Tubers from affected• plants invariably produce diseased plants. There is also evi- dence to show that the disease may spread from plant to plant in the field. Prevention. -the only sure way of avoiding loss from Leaf Roll is to secure fresh seed from districts free from this disease. Fortunately, this is possible, as Northern Ontario and certain sections of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Is- land are comparatively free from this trouble. In experiments carried on in Old Ontario by the Agricultural Representatives with seed potatoes from South Ontario, New Brunswick 1 and Northern Ontario, it was found before attempting to start. Don't attempt to stmt the engine that the average amount of Leaf Roll in theplants from the seed from the three different sources was as follows : - Old Ontario , .... 45.5 %a New Brunswick 5.1 • . Northern Ontario 1.4 These figures strongly einphasize the desirability • of obtaining north- ern-grown orti -erngrown potato seed: Mosaic. -The cause of this- disease is also unknown. It has' been ob- served in many fields in`., Ontario. When severe there Is a very notice- able reduction in the crop. Data gathered by the pathologists of the United States and Canada shows that this disease may reduce the yield by one-half. • Symptoms. -The foliage , of plants affected with Mosaic is somewhat wrinkled or corrugated and mottled with faint, light green or yellowish spots. The stalks of the diseased plants are often more bare near the ground than those of healthy ones, partly because • the affect- ed foliage does not spread out and drop down normally, and partly because the lower leaves sometimes fall off in the last' stages of severe attacks. The tubers of af- fected ffected plants are normal-looking and • sound and their keeping or eating qualitiesare not impaired. Prevention. --If Mosaic is abun- dant in a' field the surest and quick- est way of eliminating it is by ob- taining fresh seed from a non-infect- ed district. Such seed can be obi rained at the present time fro* Northern Ontario. unless the spark is retarded and the switch key inserted and turned in the switch. Don't spend a lot of time cranking the engine wy , the starter if it fails to start after a few trial. Look for the cause of, the trouble.; Continuous cranking riMS';dowrn the battery. Don't jam - the gear shifting lever ferom low to reverse, or vice versa, un- til the car has come to a de -ad stop, and then take your time. Don't drive fast or apply the brakes suddenly on wet pavements. Don't fail to use ptentj of lubricat- ing oil and grease where needed before starting on any trip and ido not use a cheap grade of oil ar grease at any time. Don't neglect necessary' adjustments and repairs until it is too /ate and you are laid up by the road aide. Don't attempt to run the car on the electric starter. Don't race the engine. You cannot abuse the engine worse than by allow- ing it to race at high speed without a load: Don't start your car with a jerk Always engage the clutch gradually, and see that the car start, off easily. Don't advance the spark lever when cranking. Don't attempt to shift the gears without first releasing the :clutch. Don't rush a repair job. Remember "what is worth doing at all is worth doing well." Don't drive ,fast around -corners; it is- dangerous and destructive, especi- ally to tires. • Don't fail to examine electrical con- nections, gasoline and oil lines and bolts and nuts occasionally, and. `see WOMAN'S ;EVES MADE STRONG By Lydia E.

General Suggestions For the _' ven- tion of Seed -borne Potato Diseases. In order to avoid loss from Leaf . Roll and Mosaic, the source of seed is of the utmost importaince. Seed potatoes free from these diseases can be obtained- from Northern Ontario. Only certified seed, however, can be relied upon. For information con- eerniifg; certified northern-grownpo- tato seed write Mr. Justus Miller, Assistant Commissioner of Agricul- ture, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, Canada. Even certified northern -grown seed is not a panacea for all diseases. In -order to avoid loss from such seed- borne potato diseases as Black Leg, Ithizoctonia, Wilt, Blight and Scab, the following precautions should be taken: 1. Select for seed smooth, sound tubers, as free as possible from scab, black, hard lumps on the surface, and abnormal discolorations of the skin. or flesh. 2. Disinfect all seed before cut- ting with formalin or corrosive sub- limate. The latter substance is the more reliable for the prevention of Rhizoctonia. 3. When cutting potatoes have at hand two or three Jinives and a jar containing a 20 per cent. solution of formalin. After cutting into a tuber 'Me,. Guelph. MAY 16, 1919 INC0RPORATEp 1855 c Ali_t11.
