A lengthy debate on the control, of the warble fly was introduced in a report*1 from the Agricultural Committee at the Huron 'County Council session Tuesday, Goderich Township was used as a test area last year and the committee has been assured that should Huron County ./desire to have this* control spraying extended throughout the whole county, It would have first priority On -machines and equipment, Leroy Brown, Agricultural rep­ resentative, stated that the cam­ paign in Goderich Township was as yet in the experimental stage, The whole county would be more interested if the campaign were conducted 'by the county and the cost would 'be cut in half. The prov* ince will lend support and the Fed­ eration of Agriculture has been as­ sured the rnachinery would 'be available, The Department, he said, intends to require spraying of all cattle brought in from other prov­ inces, to eradicate -the warble fly The livestock in Huron county that would be sprayed would be 130,000 cattle. Reeve George Ginn, of Goderich Township, when asked regarding cost, gave it as 30 cents per head; 50 per cent of which is paid by the municipality, and 50 per cent by the Department. It would require an enormous amount of equipment, and work to cover the county. There were two machines used in the township, and 6,300 ’cattle sprayed. In his* opinion, it would cost the county a lot of money but it would be well spent. The people were well satisfied and only three ■ farmers had refused the spraying. Leroy Brown cautioned against shelving the important question. He stressed that the county-wide basis is the only way to get 10'0' per cent, eradication. Warble flies spread from herd to herd. Spray­ ing on a county-wide basis would give greater results than the in­ dividual application.. <ladt boy that the -n- Gifts for h us bands, friends, even small boy in cradle .» . , - Gifts for moth­ ers, wives, sisters, girl friends, some­ thing feminize ope , . . — Gifts ELIZABETH ARDEN Bath.

We have much to be thankful for as we have had plenty of rain Which makes it so ..much better for fall work and for the cattle as some of the farm­ ers had not enough water to supply the cattle. We are sorry to mention that a few of the old time residences -are being torn down. Large spacious homes where large families .have been reared are being demolished to be 'rebuilt into smaller homes for the extra population. One of them is Mr. Neil M;cKellar*s beautiful home. He took great pride in beau­ tifying the home and the surround­ ings. The house was set back from the roads about the depth of twenty acres and the driveway was a lovely avenue of beautiful trees, none nicer except those laid out 'by an artistic gardener. Some of the trees are still standing, a monument to the one who has gone. Every morn­ ing he used to -take a delight in walking about the grounds to see the sun come up through the trees. He was also faithful to his church and rarely mipsed being in his pew on the Salb.bath day.
