Seed and Fertil• izer Meeting. rA meeting dealing with weeds, seed and M fertilizers will be held in Community Hall, Blyth, the afternoon of February 25th, at 2 p m. and one in the Hall at Walton, on February 27th at 2 p, m. The weed menace is one of the most ser- ious problems facing the farmer to -day. The Weed Act now in effect in the Prov- ince was made necessary due to the in- creasing number of weeds and the wide- spread loss they were causing, Through these meetings we hope to make every- one more familiar with the clauses of the Act and to point out the necessity of unit ed action on modern seed cleaning practis es. The subject of commercial fertilizers concerns almost every farmer, but there are many points in selection of fertilzars which are not well understood, Many high analyis, high priced fertilizers may not return any greater profit than one of lower price. We must know what a fertil izer contains, what each crop needs the nature of the fertilizer requirements of different soil types, These with other fat tors are essential before we can be sure that the right kind of fertilizers is being sown. Three subjects, weeds, seed and fertiliz- ers will be discussed in detail and will be under the direction of the Ontario Dept. of Agriculture, Clinton, assisted by M,; C. E. Toole, of Newmarket, Keep this meeting in elan to attend. Roy Toll S. Haltahan M. McDowell Jt Chamney G R Vincent 10 75 Council adjourned to meet again on Tues. March 11. A.

Free, Famous Chinese Statesman Here at Canadian Festival Dr. Tehyi Hsieh Will Be Heard in His Notable Lecture on Present -Day China The blood of China's ancient aristocracy and the spirit of mod- ern democracy mingle in the per - eon of Dr. Telly! Hsieh, noted Chinese diplomat and Statesman, who will deliver his stimulating lecture, "Inside Light of Present - Day China" at the coming Ca- nadian Chautauqua Festival here. That Canadians may gain n truer view of China and her prob- lems is Doctor Haleh's mission in coming to the Dominion—and China could not have found an emissary better suited for the task. Doctor Hsieh is a brilliant orator, a master of the English DR. TISITYI HSILH language and a keen student of international affairs. 11 has been said of him that he is the national Interpreter of Chinese aspirations, Philosophy and hopes. An editorial in ?the Toronto Globe speaks of Doctor Hsieh as follows: "One of the most cultured as well as wittiest visitors Toronto has had in many a day is Dr. Tehyl Hsieh of China, guest of the Board of Trade. Doctor Hsieh, in addition to much Oriental lore, knows the Occident better than most of us. He is a graduate of Cambridge and has had wide dip- lomatic experience on both Bides of the Atlantic. He is typical of Young China, which now is rap- idly taking over all that rightly belongs to China from the en- feebled hands of the Old Regime. We all might learn a good deal from ?this brilliant representative of China " Memorial hall, Blyth, Feb. 27. ♦ n01.11,10.00110.1.011•0•111.1.1111.00 I illbodp.1.41 {11.01104.1111114,0 1104.111H000,Il.fl,•r DR.

For the last twenty-five years the late Mr. Howe was almost a helpless, victnn of paralysis, which affliction, as he ad- vanced in years, became more evident un- til during the past few years he was a constant care.

Townsend, and the following year he and his wife came to Morris Township. first settling on lot 11. concession 9, and litter to lot 3 on the same concession. Some time later he moved to lot 3, the farm now owned by Mr, Robert Newcombe. While a resident of Morris, he took an active part in municipal affairs, serving as councillor and deputy reeve for a num- ber of years, He was a man of keen vis- ion and the township benefitted much from the services rendered so unstintingly Twenty nine years ago the family mov- ed to Blyth when it became apparent that owing to his affliction that he could not longer continue as an agriculturist. During all these years the late Mr. 1-lowe had been an invalid. but notwithstanding his affliction he was cheerful, a good con- versationalist and well versed on the lead- ing topics of the day. • In September 1927 the late Mr. Howe was bereft of his wife, since which time he received kind and patient attention at the hands of his brother, William, who had made his home here since Mrs. Howe passed away. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon from his late residence under the auspices of the Orange Order of which deceased was a member for mane years. The service was conducted by Rev. E. L. Anderson, pastor of Queen St. United Church. Interment took place in the Union Cemetery. The pall -bearers were Messrs. Deioss Taman, J. E. Taman, Wm, Bryant, Ab. Taylor. Arthur Barr and Herbert Dexter, Mr. Wm. Coombs still continues in a pitiable condition as the result of an ill- ness which he had over nine years ago, which has left him in almost a helpless condition.
