WEEDS
The weed Control Act which came
into effect in 1927 is something
which was probably never thought of
by the pioneers of Agriculture in
Ontario. At that time weeds were
not serious and did not menace our
greatest industry — agriculture. All
Farmers fear weeds. Most farmers
attempt to control them, a few seem
to either disregard them or accept
them as a necessary evil. Maximum
yields are impossible in weed polu-
ted fields. Some weeds if permitted
to increase will eventually ponces
in the land, making profitable pro-
duction impossible, depres farm
values by 50y, or more and spell
ruin for the owner.
The majority who are fighting
this menace vigorously,deserve every
encouragement and assistance in
these days of laborscarcity and high
production costs. Those who are in-
different need constant urging and
few require correction, This should
not be necessary but it has not been
found satisfactory to permit each to
"mind his own business" because
weeds do not stay at home and some
men have become a nuisance to their
nr•ighhors and a real impediment to
better agriculture. For this reason
we have weed laws.
This is the time to striek the
weeds don't let them ripen and seed
down the crop for another crop. If
you have a field of spring grain
showing a bad infection of weeds you
will be dollars ahead financially and
have the good will of your neigh -
hours by cutting it for hay. Don't
stand by andsac a field of sowthis
tie mature seed, thinking that yeti
will get it next year. One plant this
year if allowed to develop will be the
parent of hundreds next ,year,

by your township and municipal
weed inspector to render his services
in thie clean-up, Reeves, township
councillors and road superintendents

An Indian grave, discovered by'
accident by Canadian Pacific em-
p:uyees at work near Brooks, Al-
berta, last May, is considered by
experts to he between 300 and 400
years old. It is thought the grave
was originally above ground but
the passage of centuries had burled
the grave below the soil. An h•ri-
gmfon ditch was being constructed
when the grave was discovered.
Tri -motored airplanes are being
launched in one of the most spec-
tacular fights In the history of
aviation. War has been declared
by rhe Canadian Government on the
spruce bud worm and the airplane
is to be the principal arm of the
service. Planes each carry 1,600
pounds of powder, and will dust it
while flying low, over the tree
tops.
The blueberry industry is show-
ing much Improvement in Yar-
mouth and Shelburne counties,
Nova Scotia. Last year there were
only 4,000 acres of crown land
burned for blueberry growing; this
year 30,000 acres have been burn-
ed. Value of crop last year was
$65,000 and it is estimated that the
crop's value could be increased to
half a million dollars.
The province of Alberta has'
adopted Old Age Pensions, the
funds for which are provided by
co-operation between the federal
and provincial governments. The
scheme has now been adopted by
all Canadian provinces from the
Quebec boundary westward.
Though crops in several parts of
Western ('anadn would be benefit-
ted by rains, crop outlook on the
whole is very promising. Reports
from all parts of Saskatchewan are
generally encouraging. The Al-
berta report Is good, especially the
Peace River country where present
prospects indicate one of the best
crops on record, About 25.000,000
acres are sown to wheat in Canada
this year. Last year the Domin-
ion harvested over 533,000,000 bush-
els of wheat, tiie largest crop is
the country's history.
The fourth annual midsummer
gathering of the Swedish -Canadian
League held :t two-day convention
at Lac du Bonet, Manitoba, re-
cently and decided to build a hone
for Old Swedish folks at Winnipeg.
Another feature of the gathering
was a pageant of old Swedish folk -
dancing and songs presented in old-
time costumes. Many of the danc-
ers were the same who appeared
at the Regina festivaa held earner
in the year at the Saskatchewan
hotel In that city.

O
air•LOOK AT YOUR LABEL
a
American Capital
"11 has 'been estimatedby mora
than one competent authority that
Anterican investments in Canada
have reached the impressive total of
nearly four and a quarter billions;
During the past year they amounted
to $198,000,0000. In this must be
recognized two things First ,the
growth of the Canadian industrial
and' commercial' structure ; and sec-
ond the important part which Amer-
ican catpitel is Playing in Canadian
developnieut, I3oth facts are signifi-
east.
No alert observer can doubt the
progress of the Dominion. The grove
ing volume of American capital seek
ing investment on this side of the
boundary is an uneven tribute to the
strength of •odr position and to have
favorable outlook. This money is not
coming in for the purpose of stimul-
ating the growth of Canada, since we
occupy the position of rivals to our
neighbors, but the .benefit of the in
vestors. There can be no doubt of
that.
To what extent will these invest-
ments affect international relations?
Will they have a tendency to modify
the obvious hostility and selfishness
of American policy? The answers to
these questions have an important,
possibly vital, bearing on the situa-
tion which has been accentuated by
rent r.. events a cots at Washington. 7.t can-
not be doubted, since that would be
contrary to human nature and the
)teachings of experience, that the Un-
ited States will be bound at some
Itime to take into reckoning the in-
t terest N8hich her people have in the
continued strength and expansion of
Canada. The increasini body of Am
1 ericans who would be injured by the
'adverse legislation would see to that.
There will be some timorous souls
who will see in this situation its to in
1 vestmens the possible Amcricaniz-
i atinn of Canada. There is just as
much reason for suspecting that 1L
will mean the Canadianization of the
United States. The compromising
mei fairer view is that it will have a
tempering influence on trade policy,
gad lead to a broader basis of co -op -
1 oration between the two countries.
I1t should not, however, for a moment
divert the Canadian people from the
determination to work out their dest-
liny with an eye single to what will
be good for Canada. Our neighbors
would respect us for doing that, and
would dispise us if we did less.
The People's Savings
The official bank statement for
May shows a drop of $21,897,186 in
savings deposits, as compared with
the preceding month. There was al.
so a decline of a further $8,000,000,
as against the month of May last
year., On the face of it, this might
seem to be the .uniformed like an ad-
verse change. Not necessary, how-
ever. The matter is worth looking
at.
Savings lying in the bank quite
plainly point to popular thrift ; but
it is idle money. It is not invested
money. It is not being put to a pro-
ductive purpose. Therefore, when
the amount on deposit shows a shrin-
kage, two conditions ere suggested
Either the owners of the savings
have consumed them, or they have
put them into some investment. The '
latter assumption is much more pro
bable. People who have learned to
save do not, especially in a period of
unprecedented prosperity eat up
their savings.
It is both a good and a bad thing
to see the people's savings increase.'
When they increase is a proof of 1
frugality and prudence It indicates;,
at the same time soundness as to nl
ployenent end all that such a situs-
tion implies. On the other hand,
savings permitted '' lie unused is a
form of waste. Yet that would, um -
der certain conditions, be a hasty con-
clusion, The man who aims at own-
ing his own home must save in order
to carry out his purpose and when
his savings disappear from the bank
it merely means that he has done a
good thing and that the country is
not any poorer, The same thing
would be true it he used .them for
the purchase of bonds or other in-
terest-bearing sceunities.
The growth of popular savings
has been one of the salient features
et our national advancement during
the past three or four decades. •At
confederation, sixty-two years ago,
deposits in chartered banks amount-
ed to $5,057,007. These had grown
to $102,000,000 in round features
last year. The facts as to savingo on
deposits in the chartered banks are
not available for 1888 or for' many
years Inter, but in the bank state•

What to Make Check On
When Car Loses Its Pep
When a car lacks its usual snap
and getaway, check for the follow-
ing : Manifold gasket leaks, impro-
per valve clearance, leaks past piston
rings, faulty carburetor adjustment,
high or low float level, shortage of
fuel due to clogged line or screens,
fouled or improperly spaced breaker
points, early or late ignition timing,
dragging brakes.
KEEP FOOT OFF CLUTCH
It is a costly habit to "ride" the
clutch. The slightest pressure causes
the clutch to slip, slipping causes frit
tion , and friction causes heat, which
in turn burns the plates and chars
the frictional surface.
PREMATURE WEAR OF TIRES
When the fabric of a casing breaks
down before the tread wears through
it is due to an unnatural flexing and
bending in the side walls. This is
caused by overloading, or by insuf-
ficient pressure to support the load.
A remedy•is to use larger tires and
beep them inflated at all times to the
specified pressure.
BRIGHT COLORED CARS SAFER,
The safest automobiles to -day are
the ones equipad with all -steel bodies
and painted in bright colors. The
bright colors are safer because they.
can be seen from a greater distance
and because they attrart more atter
tion. The use of all -steel, of course,
has proven a greater adjunct to traf
fic safety than any other recent de-
velopment in automobiles, with the
possible exception of the four-wheel
brakes.
CLEANING THE OIL FILTER.
When washing out a filter, such as
an oil filter, care shouid. re taken to
pass the gasoline or other washing
fluid through the wire gauze in the
direction opposite to the normal flow
of oil through the device. The reas-
on for this is that if gasoline is pas-
sed through in the same .tires+ion as
the oil it will probably leave partic-
Ies of fluff or other substances that
PURE WATER FOR BATTERY
Much storage battery grief would
be avoided if owners would be care-
ful not to put anything into the bat-
tery but pure water, either distilled
in an approved still or rainwater
caught and kept in glass or earthen -
weer or rubber vessels. Rain water
is not safe in the vicinity of a huge
city because of the smoke' impurities
contained in the air,. Neither acid
nor electrolyte should be added ex
eept by an experienced battery -man;
and if the battery is valued at all;
keep all quick -charging dope elect
rolytes away from it.
CELLULOID SIDE CURTAINS
There are three things to be guard
ed against in securing better service
from side i,urtaine--sunlight, bend
ing and dust. Sunlight turns the el
)uloid yellow and makes it brittle, sc
that it cracks easily. Hence curtail
when" not in use should be folds
neatly and kept in pockets provid
for them. Folding is better than r
ling, as it is not so likely to brei
the celluloid. In case the cloth c'
fes or breakes at the fold it can
fixed up almost as good as new wi
a little top dressing. Many curt
aro ruined by dust, which not
takes off the new cloth, but gets
!ween the celluloid surfaces
'liaises them rough and difficult
see through. Putting them in a
per bag or folding them in newsp
per when putting them away 'will go
a long way toward prevent'^e this
condition. Once a collisions sheet has
cracker' or scuffed, a new sheet is
the cheapest and most satisfactory
remedy.
Negligence will shorten the life of
