The.;; boy,. with his twin brother, 'Wilfred, and two other companions, bad been playing -near the pond and Frank was evidently attemptingto walk the logs in the pond, when a log suddenly tipped and precipitated hien into the water, Mr. ' 'Max VolIand, Cambria road, who was working near- by, was attracted ;by the cries of Wilfred, who came running for help. Hurriedly grasping a pike -pole, he 'caug'ht it in the boy's sweater and drew him to the edge, and after pull- ing him out and calming the boys' r fear sent them home at once. Frank has a severe cold as a result of his experiences but otherwise is none the worse.

The platinum 'blonde craze which is said to be raging among 'the ladies has apparently reached the feathered 'kingdosn. On Sunday -Mr. -George Jen- ner, East Street, noticed three albino wise .= on . thelawn, between Knox Church and Captain Jack Vickers' house on Eakt Street. Mr. Jenner hat seen species of this variety previous- Iy, but it was not until he had read in Toronto papers of the visit .of the smite -feathered trilblethat he roto-- nized them as the Albino robin. The head and breast resembled in color these of the or dinaray Robin Red Breast, but the back, wings and' tail were white. George says they appear to be considering nesting in the neigh- borhood, since they have been seen gathering material for building pur- poses on ,different occasions. On Wed- nesday a white robin wasrseen at the rear of Sergeant A. Ross" residence on Newgate street. This ;bird was al- niost' entiiely white except for the head and a small tuft on the breast, which were of the color of the red robin.--;Goderich Signal. A Business Change. Mr. George A.

By reason of the naw arrangement governing old age pensions, under which the ;Dominion Government, pays 70 per cent., the province 20 per cent. and the county 10 per cent., a ,saving of approximately $14,000 a year to the County of 'Hluron will be effected. Clerk Holman states. If the legisla- tion is made retroactive to August 1, 1961, as is •proposed, an additional $10,000 will be coming to -the county. In as much as receipts from old age pensions now practically sustain the county home for the aged at Clinton, the country is now no worse off than before the legislation was enacted. On the other hand, some $25,000 a year is being brought into and dis- tributed in this country.--Goderich Star. Alleged Purse Snatcher Arrested In Goderich. .. Alleged to have been implicated at Wiarton in a purse -snatching incident, Dan Rouse was arrested in Goderich on Friday last and taken to the north- ern town by Provincial (Constable Kennedy to stand trial, along with another man.

Gauley states he received his potato -sorting education from John Joynt, potato king, and has very fixed ideas on this work. -- Goderich Star. Fiftieth- Anniversary Celebrated.

She was also a gay creature, who kept a serious-minded husband from being too sombre. She was a wife at seventeen, a mother at eigh- teen, and at eighty could sound like twenty-three when she spoke on the telephone. - She was the greatest critic in the world•—according to ,her husband. She read in manuscript every word that her husband urban d wrote, criticized, read proofs, and detected anarchrronisms. She could detect flaws in legal con- tracts when lawyers had passed them over. The only thing she did not do was write, and that she did not do because "one writer in a family is enough" according to herself, 'Lady' Hall Caine was a woman of accomplishments. She was ar,.auth- ori.ty on grammar and logic. She could arrange flowers like a Japanese flower artist. She was an interior decorator of great skill, and an am- ateur architect She could also cook. Despite a compelling personality, she focused the world's attention on her husband. She was content to rule in .the nursery, and to be her hus- band's accountant and critic. These facts about her were reveal- ed recently by an intimate woman friend. "I wonder if this generation knows what it has lost?" she said. "Now she has gone, the world has lost the last Real Wife.

Of course some merchant will say- "You're crazy; why, I had an ad in Iast Christmas, another 12th of July last year. Sure, I advertise." There is an old saying, "One explosion of gasoline never sent a car running along the street," and so it is With advertising.

Wiinter has' thinned anti devitalized the blood stream so that it isn't carrying enough oxygen. That is the reason for the listless, languid, easily -tired -mit condition :so preva- lent at this season. What is needed is a tonic one that will build new blood and restore and purify the blood stream, and thus en- able it to carry the energizing oxygen that quickly revitalizes the whole sys- tem. Thousands :have proven that Dr. Williams" Pink Pills are the ideal tonic for this purpose. "Mrs. A. Merritt, of Welland, says: "Again last 'Spring I became ill.

' The question of farm supplies ehould be attached from a community. standpoint, according to Oearge R, Peterson, of the Ontario Marketing Beard.. It is a different problem in • one community than in another, since it of 500 trees for windbreak purpos- the type of farming enterprise com- mon to a community varies. The dairy farmer purchases commodities that buying from what is a common practice of the fruit• grower. The poultryman's needs differ from the mixed farmer and so on. The first essential step to be taken by a Purchasing association is a sur- vey of the situation. If the farmers in the community sawed by the As- sociation are purchasing too many feeds that should be grown at home and if the variety of feed purchased is too great, steps should' be taken to rectify this condition. Dairy farm- ers in a community should strive to grow those feeds that can best he grown at home and which' will best suit a dairy ration. An abundance of high quality protein roughage: should form the ;basis of community effort. If the soilsare suitable to a program of this kind well and good, but if1 c overs'n a d other e legumes re- quire to be aided in their abundant growth by drainage, improved tillage and possibly a soil corrective then steps may be taken collectively to provide the materials required to ef- fect .the change. Then the g supple- mentary feeds should be made to be uniform in type. ` Fruit and vegetable growers hav' a variety of opinions on systems of fertilization and disease control. The best authorities on these subjects can readily be ;consulted and collective purchasing made exceedingly simple if sprays and fertilizer formulae are standardized more than they are at present. In working out a ;program of this kind it may well be borne in mind that through efficient collective pur- chase one of the heavy items of cost of production is pared to the bone and the margin of profit enlarged. Lastly, credit or the financing of collective purchases must be sound. The organization or individual who pays cash has immediately cut the cost of production. The man who asks for credit is handicapped at the start and in the large majority of instances will never catch up. Free Trees Available, • Many farmers are taking advant- age of the opportunity to secure trees from the Forestry Branch this spring for reforestati•bn purpo,ges. 'The form- er limit of a,5.00 treat feat one indi- vidual has been res'dinded and the land owner ran secure as many -as he wishes for reforestrt►y work. The iitn- es still applies. The trees are sent out the latter part of April, so that interested 'ariners should act quick- ly. Write to the Forestry Branch, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, 'and secure an application form with the necessary instructions. Weekly Crop Report Bruce 'county reports fall wheat to have come through the winter well, although showing some ;browning on top.

'More seed grains have been cleaned at the local cleaning plant in Grenville than ever before. Fall wheat. and clovers are in good condition in Huron. Several southern counties 'report sales of dairy cattle to United States at good prices. Preparation for spring work is the order of 'busi- ness on most farm's at present.
