This is a citizens’ show and every community in Canada wants to have part in honouring the country's fighting men on this occasion, Not only does it prove to the soldiers that they have not been forgotten by th-e citizens generail, but it is assisting in enlightening the public more intimately about the role of Canada’s Army and the manner in which the troops are cared for and grained.

To com plete the story,, it is necessary to write something about the defence against bombs. Defence against bombing might be divided into two categories, ac tive and passive, or defensive and offensive might be a more accur ate division, The one consists of shelters, fire watching, the bomb-proofing of buildings, so far aS that is possible, gas masks, provision for extra wat- ’ plosives, er supplies and fire-fighting equip- care of in London and other cities, all designed to deal with Basements of bombed buildings have been made into great storage tanks.

The back-yard shelters must have been uncomfortable affairs. A hole would be dug shaped with a family alarm sounded, out heat or comforts of any kind. A latei’ development has been to build shelters inside one’s house. If the building has a cellar (and many English houses do not have them) the shelter can be built there, or it may be in an unused garage?* These can be made more comfort able, with heat, lights, and even ra dios and telephones. There' is an other type of shelter for home use, a steel-topped table with steel legs, capable of carrying a heavy weight without collapsing. If the family should be under the table when the house collapses, the table sup ports the weight of masonry and prevents the occupants from being crushed. The cities have many types of air raid shelters. Probably the safest in London are the stations of the Underground Railways. These are far below the. surface of the ground, are easily reached by the usual stairways and escalators. Hundreds of persons still sleep every night in these public places. Gen erally, they are safe, even in the heaviest bombing, but twice there were heavy casualties when bombs ’ To some extent, important build ings can be bomb-proofed. It is an expensive »process if thoroughly done and consists of building up all windows with heavy brick walls building blast walls in the interior and behind doors, and putting water tanks in the upper storeys. War factories are usually camou flaged. They may have flat roofs, painted to look like fields, or there may be more elaborate means which are probably still kept secret. Net ting, painted and with bits of cloth hangAig from it to look like foliage, may be stretched over small areas, or over guns and mechanical equip ment used by the Army. Gas masks are usually carried in case the enemy starts to use poison gas. .FOR SALE—193 6 Chev. coach, pri vately owned, new tires, new bat tery, heater, good mechanical con dition. $450.

Unlike many other crops, the yield of tomatoes is not seriously reduced by defoliation unless it oc curs early in the season, or becomes sufficiently severe to shorten the cropping period. The quality of the , fruit, however, is severely affected, and late pickings from defoliated plants are so poor in flavour and colour that they are usually un saleable, says J. K. Richardson, Dominion Laboratory of Plant Path ology, St. Catharines, Ont. * Experiments have proved that bordeaux mixture will control blights, but may cause injuries to tomato plants and reduce the yield. The recently introduced fixed cop per fungicides control blights with out injury to the plants. Satisfactory coritrol of blights can be obtained 'by spraying the plants in the seed beds and in the field after leaf spots become noticeable. The seedlings should be sprayed twicet, the application being .from seven to ten days after the first and and at least five days before trans planting. The plants need not be ( sprayed again until leaf spots begin, when two or three ap- lications at seven to ten days inter vals, one of which should be made just before harvesting commences, will as a rule prevent defoliation. It is preferable not to use bordeaux mixture. Use a “fixed copper” fungicide. In' order to avoid the destruction of plants during spraying opera tions, fields should be planted with roadways to accommodate the spray ing equipment. 1 RATES SINGLE - 51.50 to $3.00 DOUBLE 9X50 to 96.00 Special Weekly Monthly Raton HoteB WavoHey SbADERA Avb. at Collkos St. do you ■ know the New office Boss; ideal” I came Proprietor: “You come Into my restaurant, you order a glass of water, you drink it, you calmly walk out!” Scot: “What were ye expectin' me to do, mob?
