In 'another 'two weeks
school will tsegi'fand by now
many atoms and dads have
been dragged off to town to
do that absolutely necessary
hack to school shopping. The
sneakers from last year re-
semble one's summer san-
dals, toes have wide open
spaces to wiggle about in as
the canvas has disappeared.
All the socks either need
unending or .have vanished
and I would love to meet the
nne•fonted child in our house,
1 am sure there must be one
because there are a great
many sock', without a mate.
The.summer season •must
also be the growing season
for the children as well as the
grass. gardens and crops.
Last year's jeans now look
like kickers or close to 11 and
'the boys shirt sleeves must
have shrunk or they had an
arm stretching job done.
The girls grow a little taller
and sometimes a bit rounder,
but hemlines can be altered.
So. since they cannot outgrow
their clothes fast enough, the
fashion designers give them a
helping hand and change the
styles so rapidly that it is just
terrible 'to he seen in last
year's styles, so they reju-
venate their wardrobe.
Going to school today is like
attending a fashion show as
all the new styles, colours and

trends are -os parade on the
first day.
By the end of the first week
Sonny's new Levis or
G. W,G.s have grass stains on
the knees just like the ones he
wore in June and Mary Sue's
new blouse has already lost a
few buttons and the worst
tragedy of all .is that four,
other girls in her class alY-
have the same pair of knick-
ers as hers.
• All the new sneakers that
were sparkling, white now
rescnthle Oscar in the trash
can's favorite dirty old pair.
The kids have tried out every
puddle in the schoolyard and
there 'are all those green
blotches on their shoes are
the ever -favourite grass
stains and no one ever ex-
plains how they got,there. By
the sound of things, some -
days you would almost think
the grass jumped out of the
ground and attacked their
tihoes.
By the end of the first week
all the new attire will have
made its way to s pool at the
rate of an outfit per day and
the rest of the year it will be
an outfit a week unless mom
scoffs it off to the wash
when you are asleep. For
sonic of us the beginning of
school means another year
has gone by' and we are
getting older, To others it
signifies the furtherance of
--their education and develop-
ment of a future career. No

time goes on and so will we.
Last week something very
,special for the village of
Dab -lin happened and all its
residents 'should be able to
find their way home. Thanks
to the Du4ii,tn Lions Club and
UN Village Trustees, street
signi were pla'eR1 at the end
of each street. The main
street is called Mill Street and
the rest of the streets are as
follows: Ann StreetaNelson
Street, John Street, Raglan
Street, Union Street. Dufferin
Street, Helen' Street, Peter
Street, James Street, East
Street, and Matilda Street.
This was really a worthwhile
project and is greatly ap'pre-
elated by the residents of the
village.

McLagan had a comparison
where the two yielded about
the same. Dennis Dow had
one field of 5o Fredrick and

yielded a hit hcttcr than
Fredrick and only about one
pound less in bushel weight.
file theory of a Fredrick plus
another variety mix is to gain
sonic yield of the other

AERIAI,SEEDING.
OF WHEAT
Aerial seeding is a fairly
new technique being pro -
noted especially in Oxford
and 1,tnrhton counties. The
sy heat seed is now n into
sn, bean 1l,,1 s just before the
soybean pia rop their
h ayes, The mulch of the
coy bean leaves appears to'
hold enough moisture to
allow the wheat to establish.
The seeding rate has been at
about three hushcls per acre
(200 kg. ha.). I have heard
documented yields of over
sixty bushels, per acre on a
field basis.
