WESTERN FAIR IS GOING AHEAD As far as the Western Fair is con­ cerned there ha been no hard times, This thriving exhibition has not once halted in its progress, and indica­ tions this year already point to an even greater exhibition than ever before, Secretary W, D. Jackson in a recent interview remarked on the applications for exhibition space, and it is his belief that the Fall Will see an awakening in the trade centres which will be reflected in ' the /‘Greater Canada” exhibits which are always a feature of the Western-.Fair at London, “This exhibition will be remark* able for more than one reason,” said Mr, Jacksonk. “To begin with, everything is going to be cheaper— transportation, living expenses-, ana certainly this year has far greater spending power than, for very many years. Yet, the Fair that will be offered to the public will be on just as big a scale as ever, ror our dir­ ectors have planned an Exhibition that will-be a step forward, as usual. Every effort is being made to have each, department up to the records achieved in previous years, and we know definitely tha.t some repart- ments will create-new records.” “Particularly in the Agricultural branches of the Western Fair mark­ ed improvements will be seen. The Ontario Arena,” with its inside judg­ ing ring, offers an educational ad­ vantage to agriculturists an® stock- men which should not be overlook­ ed. Judging of live stock will be on every day of the fair, and no ad­ mission fee is charged to the Arena during the hours of judging. A night horse show is an attraction of re­ cent years that will' be repeated again this year.” OPEN SEASONS FOR BIRDS The National Parks- Service of the Department of tlie Interior, Ot­ tawa, has just issued the Regula­ tions regarding Migratory Birds for the current,year.

We had heard of such farmers before. We conjured up a farmer with a cigar and. a car and a brusque manner and a loud laugh. To our surprise this farmer was right on his. job himself. He had a small farm. He had very little hired help. But we found that ne saw that his work was well done. When he had business to attend to he did it himself. His business was farming. ***«,***« WHOSE STRAWSTACKS We’ve heard it said that if almost anything is put‘by aarefully a use will be found for it in seven years. Does this saying apply♦ to the strawstacks to be seen on a great number of our farms? Just at present the owners of these stacks seem to have no use f-or them. Within the next seven years will those stacks prove to be just the thing for the orchard enterprise that seems likely to be revived? Farmers with a few acres of vigorous trees might do worse than to haul the straw so that it may help out the growth of their trees. In .any case it seems a pity that straw should be wasted. of many a western farm should suggest certain thoughts io agriculturists. The fate to Ontar- ❖ Dr. S. T.

A trough was so', situated that water was easily got to it but which did no.t allow the hogs to plant their feet therein. A few -trees were situated near the trough, while on one side of the fence was a stack of grain that had been somewhat damaged in the har­ vesting. Every so often the farmer threw a few sheaves of grain among his porkers. Contented grunts and busy jaws told the story of thrifty hogs. One onlooker objected t-hat it took the hogs too long to get their supplies by this method. The farmer explained that time was not a serious consideration to a hog, while time and the cost of grinding ate-into his profits. Both farmer and hogs are satisfied. the other TEACHER UNDER QUARANTINE !

Hope is entertained that the sight will rat least be partially saved. . SUCCUMBS AT MONTREAL% ‘Mrs. Laura Blanche Davis Robin­ son,' formerly of London, died re­ cently in Montreal. Mrs. Robinson was well known in London. Her husband was station­ ed in Walkerton, Exeter and Strath- roy, and while she was in those towns she was a prominent worker in church affairs. Rev. and Mrs. Robinson came to London to live on and after his death Went to Montreal. Surviving' is one son, Rev. Bern- a*d Robinson, the war and a her. The funeral N. R. Station, Woodland cemetery, and Rev, R. i. Bowen officiated. ’r Henry ©happle Brewer, a formei resident of Exeter, died August 25 in his 92nd year at his residence, 5444 Durochester Street, Montreal, after 18 months of illness. Mr. Brewer’ was born in London England in 1841, and was educated, there. He came to Canada in 187-0 and joined the staff of the Mon­ son's Bank. In 1874 he was ap­ pointed managei’ of their -Sorei branch and in 1877 manager of the Exeter, Ont., branch. In 1882 he went to Clinton, Ont., as manager of a branch there and remained in that position until his in 1906. After retiring he lived for a short time, and came until in sons, Henry Parsons, a well-known jour­ nalist in his day, who published thq Commercial Advertiser of Montreal and the Evening Telegram. He is survived by his widow, two sons, Cecil P. Brewer, of Vancouver and Hugh G. Brewer, of Montreal; one daughter, Mrs. L. M. Waugh, of Hollywood, Cal.; one sister, Mrs. H. C. Jones, of London England ana six grandchildren. Lovers -of nature in our beautiful village should spend an hour or two on the spacious grounds belonging to Mr. Isaac R. Carling, K. C. It was our privilege ”to spend an hour or more exploring and enjoying the beauties of this fine property. The splendid butternut and Japanese Walnut trees give ample shade on a hot day to those who wish to rest or sit quietly while enjoying the delightful views across spacious lawns or admiring the hedgerows of tall- evergreens besides many other trees scattered here and there.

But it it when we approach from the rear of the property that our sense of the beautiful in gardens i^s- -arous­ ed and satisfied. Leading up from the rear entrance is a fine cement "walk about nine feet wide and lin­ ed with flowers on eacn side, the left there many varieties but beautiful grandmother’s with Zinnias, j On the right Snapdragons, known as Painter’s Brush, Pansies, etc. Then as we travelled farther we came across splendid specimens • of Bergamot, Rudbeckia purpuria and the somewhat scarce but beau­ tiful Amarillas, whose foliage leavds die away and leave -their beautiful flowers displayed on tall stems. We must *not omit other flowers such as Amaranthus, Hydrangeas with flower hears almost twelve inches across, Golden, Glow and Tricoma or Torch Lilies.
