Increased prize money for classes of early oats and seed corn has been approved by the Directors of the Guelph Winter Fair. This is in keep-? ing with their desire to give greater recognition to the products of the field as well as to live stock, an­ nounces E. K, Hampson, Vice-Pres­ ident of the Fair and Chairman of the Seed Department. It is also in recognition of the loyalty and inter­ est of the large number of sebd pro­ ducers who support the Show from year to year, Mr, Hampton states. ' The Guelph Winter Fair is known throughout Ontario as the “Farmers’ Show.’’ Here gather scorjes of the best farmers of the Province to meet their neighbors and get the newest information from the Ontario Agri­ cultural College officials, who are al­ ways in attendance. This year the O.A.C. will have a large display showing the results of pasture and feeding experiments, as well as a description of the approved varieties of potatoes, grains and oth­ er farm crops. In co-operation with the Corn Growers’ Association, the Federal Government through W. J. W. Len­ nox, will place some “corn facts” be­ fore the grower and feeder of On­ tario corn. Generally speaking, Ontario crops have been above the average and prospects are good for the largest seed show in the history of the Guelph Show. Dates for this year’s fair are Nov. 29, 30 and Dec. 1st.

There is a grim lesson in these figures which ev­ ery pedestrian should take to heart, for his safety depends upon his care­ fulness. Pedestrians — that is, the sort who run risks in traffic — are definitely gamblers. - They gamble with their lives every time they amble joyfully off the sidewalk into the midst of a stream . of automobile traffic with an utter disregard of all safety regulations. They are gamblers when they step from behind parked cars, unwittingly tempting death or serious- injury ev­ ery time they do it. They are gamb­ lers when they select the middle of a city block as a good spot to cross the street, and forget all about tlie regulations — made for their own safety — against jaywalking. And in the face of all these very evident demonstrations of careless­ ness on the part of pedestrians, the blame for a fatality, when it occurs, is usually placed on the motorist. Of­ ten he is not to blame, for if the ped­ estrian had used ordinary, common sense, he would not have been in the path of the oncoming car, and the accident would not have happened. Traffic regulations have been care­ fully prepared, warning lights and Qther signals are installed at busy in­ tersections more for the safety of the pedestrian than anyone else. Yet they are disregarded by a very large per­ centage of the pedestrian public, des­ pite the grim fact that more pedest­ rians are the victims of highway traf­ fic accidents than any other single group. The average motorist is care­ ful; the average pedestrian is not. “Pedestrians, watch your step!” is certainly the best of advice. Walk carefully and you are more likely to live to enjoy your walks. THE COMMON COLD against the Estate of the late Samuel! stopped playing an hour' ago? If the sum total of suffering, in­ convenience, sequelae and economic loss from common colds be obtained, it would at once elevate these infec­ tions from the trivial into the rank of the serious diseases. The autumn is the time for colds though they may occur at any time of the year..' Many of us have from one to three colds a year. One attack produces little im­ munity. Of what does a cold consist? ’It is a group Of acute infections of the mttcous (lining) membranes of the throat and nose, often extending into the windpipe and larger bronchi. The sinuses, that is the hollow spac­ es adjacent td the nose, are frequent­ ly involved. The infection may be confined to the nose when it is called rhinitis; it may affect the throat as in tonsillitis, or as a pharyngitis; the larnyx as a laryngitis and the bron­ chial tubes as a bronchitis, f Cold and draughts. The popular idea that a cold is due to a draught is scarcely correct, Ex­ posure to draughts, sudden changes of temperature and chilling of the body are predisposing causes of colds, but no cold can originate with­ out the specific micro-organism or bug which is the essential cause. The Cause. Some say that a common cold is due to a virus, that is a germ so “4 matters preven- Preven- small that it cannot be seen under the microscope. Many different germs seem to be associated with colds. Perhaps "the cause is a com- binatioin of viruses and germs. Com­ mon colds may not be a single dis­ ease but rather a group of infections which vary in severity and catchab­ ility. Colds are caught from other per­ sons having co'ids just as diphtheria is contracted from diphtheria pat­ ients. Arctic explorers, exposed to all the conditions popularly supposed to produce colds, do not suffer from these ailments until they return to civilization and become infected by contact with their fellows. Prevention and Cure. The two really important about colds .are first, their tion and second their cure, tion may be summed up in the avoid­ ance of those having an infection es­ pecially in street cars, offices and other poorly ventilated places. Colds, like other diseases conveyed in the secretions from nose and mouth are often transferred by direct and indir­ ect contact through kissing, the com­ mon drinking cup, the roller towel, pipes, toys, pencils, fingers, food and other objects contaminated • with the fresh secretions which carry the dis­ ease. Vitiated air, draughts, dust, sudden changes of temperature, ex­ posure to cold' and wet, overwork, loss of sleep and improper food all have some effect in causing colds. It must be admitted on the other hand that the most vigorous will contract colds if they receive the infection, while some persons are so immune that they appear to resist attacks of colds year after year. Persons with colds should, at once go to bed and stay there as long as there is any rise in temperature. Me­ thods of cure had best be left to the doctor. Some persons pin their faith to bed, a hot bath and a drink of whiskey. Others use vaccines. There is one vaccine, namely that prepared by Rosenow, which, taken by mouth in doses of ten drops once a week, is said to prevent the onset of a cold and taken daily in the course of a Spake he of prowess in fare?

F. Tinney, Assistant to Superintendent, Dominion Experi­ mental Station, Charlottetown. Before the birds are taken off range, however, it is necessary, in the interest of the comfort and general health of the birds, as well as the convenience of the operator, to give the poultry premises a thorough and systematic overhauling. A start should be made with the elimination of all older stock that is not to be carried over the winter. If the farmer depends on the purchase of day-old chicks for flock renewal, this may possibly mean the disposal of all stock in the plant. If breeders are to be retained, they should be separated from the laying stock if sufficient space is available. Having removed surplus stock, at­ tention should be centred on the pre; raises. If portable panel fencing is used, the hurdles may be removed and stored for the winter. Runways may be limed and ploughed. If con­ venient, remove all loose fittings such as nests, roosts, drop boards, from the house and expose them to the bright sun for several days. They should first, of course, he cleaned of all dust and litter. Scrape and sweep floors, and sweep walls and ceilings. After cleaning is completed, apply a good lime wash to every part of the interior of the house. Disinfectants may be added to the wash, if consid­ ered advisable. Incidentally, a spray pump is the most satisfactory method of white­ washing as it is then possible to drive the material into all cracks or seams. Apply a thorough coat of whitewash to the fittings, wests, roosts, etc, be­ fore they are returned to the place. Stop any drafts, such. as open seams, knot holes, etc. and replace broken window glass and any torn cotton in the ventilating sashes. Put in a good supply of fresh, clean litter, and your house is ready for the birds whenever they are brought in from range. THE SECRET OF THE TREES Why have you chosen a cold dead appearance?
