Grey Township Resident gasses It is with heartfelt sympathy we record the sudden passing of the late Milton Rands, Saturday, July 6, in his 49th year, a highly respected far- mer of Grey Township. Mr. Rands, who suffered • his, first stroke three years ago, and his second about a year ago after, has carried on nobly, and has 'been an inspiration to all who knew him in patience, kindliness and cheerfulness. Alway industrious and trying to help, the final summons which came as another stroke, found him working in the garden, from which he never gained complete cons'ciousness. Hie presence will be greatly missed as a neighbor and friend in the community, in which he was always ready to help in any good cause. :Ma . Rands, a member of the Brussels United Church and local C.

Toronto Children, Who Have No Place To Go, Ask Your Help: Do you live in the country? Are there trees, Sewers and sunshine? Have you a hawse large enough to hold a little ,girl; --or perhaps. a little boy -ter two? Have you a garden where they could play—where they could hear birds sing, and watch squirrels scam- pering about the trees? Over 800 little boys and girls are daily dreaming of the "kind lady" who will make it possible for them to leave the city streets during the hot weather. Will you Wave your magic wand and make their dreams come true? There are over 600 applications on hand now. The cases have been in- vestigated and the children are really in need df a holiday. Many hostesses have already writ- ten in—some in fact have already had two groups of kiddies, giving each of them two weeks' . holiday. Others have written in to say they wish to keep' the children for another two weeks. Still ethers write asking for the same kiddies they had last year. Is it !because little girls are made of "all things nice" that so many hostesses ask especially for them? Or is it because they have , flaxen ourls and big blue eyes? Seventy per cent, of the letters coming into the Neighborhood Workers office ask for a little girl. Yet there are so many little boys. Bright little lads, eager for a chance to look into a .bind's nest, or to watch' a young dolt gallop around a field. Who'll take a little .lrioy? "The Fresh Air • Camps are filled to capacity," ergpllained F. NI Staple- ford, General Secretary of the N.W. A. "We must find private homes for these children if they are to get a holiday at all." The N.W.A. undertakes to have all children medically examined ;before they leave the city. There is a cloth- ing centre where mothers are taught to make over used clothing. Some of them work every day for a week under the guidance of an N.W.A. worker, in order that their kiddy may be clean and deeently clad when it goes to its "dream: home." All transportation dosts are paid by the Neighborhood. Workers Associ- ation. All they ask you to do is provide board and room for a child or two, for two weeks, somewhere within a radius of 150 miles. of To- ronto. One very kind lady has written in: "I suppose nobody wants little color- ed children -1 will take two little colored boys." And so two little ciarkey lads are going to 'be given a glimpse of paradise. There is a little boy, eleven years old who has been ill all winter. The doctor pronounces .him well again new --,but he's very thin. Two weeks, or a month in the country would work wlonders for him. Who will fatten him up? There is a.. mother who works frightfully hard, cleaning offices. She Chas a little boy and girl, ages 9 and 7. They have no place bo play. There are lads 13 and 14 years of age—who would love to see a farm —a real farm, with horses, cows and chickens. A father was killed in an accident. The mother has been ill—there is a little girl 13 years °old. The mother is afraid to let her away—since the accident. Wouldomebody offer them two weeks' rest in a cool shady spot—away from their cares and w ornies ? Hostesses are safeguarded in ev- ery respect, The kiddies are ; only those recommended by the various agencies. They have all been exam- ined by a Doctor from the City Health Department. They are taken care of until they are met at the train by their "Fairy Godmother." Prospective hostesses are asked to send with their invitation a letter from their clergyman, or some well- known citizen of their district, to F. N. Stapleford, General Secretary of the N.W.A., 22 Wellesley Street, To- ronto. • Sunday Afternoon (Continued from Page 2) On arrival at the door I hesitated —what should I do? Ask someone else to play, or for at least this one day leave the organ bench empty? With these thoughts running in and out of my mind 1 opened the door. .And to my oberwhelming surprise there she sat—just as she had sat foi years. It was all I could do to start that service but what a service ic was- nIlow easy to speak of conse- cration, the spirit of God, worship and such things. We really witnessed• that sublime and transforming atmos- phere at work that day. At the close of the service I went to her and said: "Mrs. that was very wonderful and gracious of you to be in your accustomed place," She looked up at me and quietly said: "Why, Mr. —=-r— this is our church, you know, and we all need the help so much these days." Home lost — a whole life's work vanished—old age alm'o°st upon her husband and herself—and nothing left. No! No! I am all wrong—for she has that wonderful spirit born and nurtured by fellow- ship with God—the Spirit to "carry on."' -,From the Pamphlet, "Ministry of Mercies." went West, where he farmed until he moved to his late home in 1920.

Farm Notes Spray the Fruit Trees Orchardists are .warmed by the Do- minion IHlortaculturist to follow the published recommendations regarding the spraying of fruit trees. Thor- oughness of application, with the use of the proper 'materials, will produce the desired results. Contact sprays should be used for aphis or for any of the' sucking insects... Black Leaf 40 is very usefuli. For leaf -eating insects, a stomach poison., such, as arsenate of lime or arsenate of lead, should be applied. When spraying the orchard, use a combined insecti- cide and fungicide. Gathering, Keeping and Marketing Eggs Deep, gloomy nests, provided for the hens, will reduce egg breakage. Eggs should be collected at least once daily, and during 'very cold and very •warm weather -collections should be made at noon and night to avoid freezing or heating. The eggs should be taken at once to a cool cellar, where there is a fairly uniform low temperature. It may be advisable to open one or two windows and .substi•lute screens cov- ered with cheesecloth for ventilation to carry off excessive`Moisture or odor. Dirty eggs should be cleaned with coarse sandpaper, but not wash- ed. Stains may be removed with a little vinegar on a clean cloth. Wash- ing eggs destroys the protective coating and lowers the grade. Clean pine shavings have proven to be the best nest material. Shav- ings facilitate cleaning and form a better cushion in the nest than hay or cut straw. At this season of the year shells aremore likely to be brittle and the contents to he of poorer quality due' to hair cracks and so called "grass" or dark yolks, and careful handling is advisable if the best prices are to be obtained.

Success Although Guelph district received its share of rain during the annual series of gatherings known as Farm- ers' Week at the Ontario Agricudtur- al College, attendance this year was well above the average . About 14,- '000 people visited the institution at one, time or another during the week, and the whole staff, was kept busy guiding parties about • and demon- strating the multitude of material which the college has to offer. Offic- ials were unanimous that the college has seldom been in a better position to tell its story and that it was a wholly successful and satisfactory week. Wednesday and Thursday- were, as usual, the days of heaviest .attend- ance, At times it was estimated that there were • 4,000 farmers and their friends scattered about the grounds, and when they all gathered about the stock barns to watch the leading out of outstanding sires of different breeds from beef cattle to the newly imported Clydesdale stallion, Craigie Realization, it was practically impos- sible for the members of the staff to make all the record crowd hear what they had to say. It is hoped that a system of loudspeakers may be avail- able for such events in future, European Fruit Crops Reduced The heavy frosts of May 15th to 20th that struck throughout England have in many localities almiost com- pletely wiped out apples, plums, pears, cherries and heavily damaged berries. While it is too early to estimate the English apple crop there is every in- dication that the yield, will be con- siderably less than 'half the super crop of last year. The fruit districts. in Kent, Evesham and Cambridge suf- fered most, particularly where orch- ards are situated in low, flat coun- try. On the other hand there are districts with orchards on higher ground that are only partially af- fected and some that indicate return-, ing an average crop. The orchards where .smudges were used will have good crops. The most prothising ap- ple 'varieties are Worcesteirs and sBrameleys. Strawberries ' are tonly half a crop: GOLF Every summer, a number of Hien inquire from us as to the desirability or otherwise of golf. Although many women are devotees of the game, they do not seem to worry, to the same extent as de the men, about' golf as a form of exercise. Most men seem to think it either necessary or desirable for them to indulge in some form of strenuous exercise. 'In many cases, their pride prompts them to show that they are as active as they were ten or twenty years ago. In general, women accept their age much more gracefully than do men. There is nothing peculiar about golf, except to those who do not play. It is a form of recreation which brings the individual to walk in. the open air, to relax, to enjoy the company of others, and to gain personal satis- faction through improving his skill at the game. There are some, however, who play at golf without deriving any relaxa- tion or satisfaction. They are angry with themselves and irritable with everyone else, To take a stroke a- bove the average spoils the day for them, interferes with their sleep:and makes them generally unhappy. Whether it be a question of golf, bridge or any other form of recrea- tion, it is 'best to give- it up if it is found to 'control the player; it then ceases to be recreation. A fairly safe guide, but not an absolutely reliable one, is that exer- cise Which can be taken in comfort is good for the individual. After the age of forty, it is, in all cases, de- sirable to have a health examination at intervals in order to receive per- sonal guidance in this important matter of suitable exercise. Many men worry about their hearts. One type of man goes on playing strenuously as if to prove thereby that his heart is all right ; another fears any acid all forms of exertion. There are several forms of heart disease, and each individual who suffers from any one of these conditions requires medical pupervi- Sion. Exercise does not damage the healthy heart, but physical exertion may reveal the fact that the heart is damaged. Broadly speaking, t h e proper kind of exercise improves the heart and is used as a form of treat- ment, in certain cases, to help to re- store the heart. Questions concerning health, ad- dressed' to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College St., Toronto, will be answered personally by let- ter. Reports received from France, Ger- many and Central Europoan countries indicate that they too suffered from the same cold spell. With such a re- duced fruit crop in Europe a normal export season' for Canada may be ex- pected. However, Mr. A.
