Mrs. J. C. Gardiner writes from Regina Mrs. J. C. Gardiner, who is visit- ing her son the Hon. J. C. Gardiner, former premier of Saskatchewan, in Regina, writes a very interesting ;letter to her friends in this eomnlun- ity. , 140 delegates attended the 25th birthday of the W.C,T,1. , in the city of Regina. The minister came for pie -and took me' over to the ,church to Mrs. McKenny, of Alberta. She .svae the first woman member of par- 2iantent ill. •Canada and the British Empire; and • was one of the finest speakers I ever listened to. I was given a place on the platform be- side her which 1 thought agreat hon- -or. There also met in tine city of Re- gina this week the Unitech Church Laymen including ten' Presbyteries. Bon. J. G. Gardiner, my son, was one ,of the speakers. I attended some of the meetings and they were fine, , I do not hesitate to say that the most 'picturesque figure in the conven- ;tion was Dr. J. W. Netrum, of Cen- tra' India, one of that dark-skinned xace. This christian gentleman has a ;History. His father went out as a hey to Trinidad where he was con- verted to Christianity in the Mission iof the Presbyteran Church. In India 11e lived in a district supplied by the Methodists and his son moved to that tart of Central. India and became a 'resbyterian minister. When the church entered union he also came lute the Ultited Church. He' wore a light colored turban but otherwise was dressed in ordinary clothes. It a vas wonderful to hear him bringing his n lessege .from far across the sea to let us know -.what Christianity can ,a'lo in only a shalt time.

The spektker at that meet- Ing was •I)r. J. lThidicott, exrmodera- for of the United Church• in Canada and J. G. Gardiner, former premier of Saskatchewan. You all know, after what has taken place in the last six months, how glad I was when they crowded around. him and myself and said that 11e was the only man that could take the platform after the grand address of Dr, Endi- cott, and hold the interest of the people in that great crowd that wound up the Laymen's Convention. Dr. Endicott returned home with 11s and spent all 11011r. Then cable sunuay, November 10, Thanksgiving Day, and the commem- oratiou of Lthe llth anniversary of the signing of the Armistice. First I attended the United Church in the morning and listened to a fhe thanksgiving service. Then at 3 o'clock in the afternoon nay son, and ¢laughter attended with. me. On Saturday night we were given a card for a special seat. This was what they opened with; "At last 0 Christ in this strange da1'lcened land, Where ruined homes lie round on .every hand For lonely .graves along the country- side Where sleep, 'brave .hearts who for others died Tell of life's union with the cruci- fied." Then there was the dipping of the colors which was.. beautiful; then "The Flowers of Ecliuburglt' by the pipers of the 12tH Divsion• Rifles. When they sounded "Last Post" the cold Mills went overme; then the roll of the drums, .411 you lear mothers know what that is like. Two minutes silence.

The father had been sick for weeks and they had buried their eldest girl. The mother had helped through it all and they were reduc- ed to shard straits. One morning there was no wood to keep them warm. 'That mother went 'where she always wont—to Jesus. While kneeling at her bed her little boy came in and slid "who were • you talking to mother." "I was telling Jesus that we Have no wood to put on the fire this morning, "011 was that it" he said and went out to play. An hour .later he came in running, calling out "Jesus is here with the wood". She went out to look and there was a man site had never seen before. She did not ask shim where the wood came from. She took it for granted as the boy said that it came from Jesus. So it clic. That boy was Edwin (L. Gardiner, whose shell -torn body lies some- where in France. llIrs. J. C.

Big Values 111 .Fertilizers Commercial fertilizers when ap- plied to various crops in conjunc- tion with good farming methods give big returns. Phosphates in- crease yields of almost all crops on almost all types of soil in the pro- vince. Potash pays, especially on the sandy soils. Nitrogen for most farm crops should, as far as possible, be obtained for growing legumes. Crop Yield •Average The estimated yield of fall wheat, spring wheat, oats, barley, rye and peas in Ontario for the year is given at 114,140,939 bushels as compared with 135,377,224 bushels last year. The ' total acreage in Ontario for these grains was 367,881 acres less than last year. Oats are lower by 19,500,000 bushels than last year. The potato crop was below normal and turnips and mangels, due to the continuous drought are smaller in size than usual. Small fruits prov- ed to bo a light crop, but winter ap- pies are .plentiful although small in size. Tile tobacco average was 30 per. cent. below 1928. Taken all in all, the crop yield is an average one, and the quality good. Grading is Vital The i'ttct 'that more than t$0,00OP. acres of potatoes are grown in One tario every year, it is highly impore taut that an effecient marketing sys- tem be' perfected. This means that every grower should .co-operate in properly grading his potatoes and in placing them an the market in a suitable container. Only la this way can the competition of the) outside product be met. The Beau Market The Ontario beak crop will 1)o a little larger than last year, A de- crease in the average yield per acre will almost offset the great increase in acreage. The American crop of' shall white beans has estimated at• about two per cent, larger than last year. The European production is about normal in contrast to 1928, when the crop was very short. The hold over in the United States' Canada and Europe w'as very small, consequently new beans are meeting .. a ready sale. Quotations on import- ed European beans which compete - with Ontario grown of good quality,: have gone up during 'recent weeks,. the November 1st price being $3.75- a bushel f.o.b., Montreal, • 'Faint, Dizzy Spells For Four Years Got Worse Every Year Mrs, .1.
