CAUSES OF RAPID TIRE WEAR
Rapid tire wear is due to small,
underinflated ones subjected to a
constant speed of 50 miles an
hour on open roads, and then, .1
sudden jam to fourwheel brake:
when the car is to be stopped.
Tires soon wear out if corners ars
taken at high speed or a speed)
getaway is attempted. Poor road:
also are detractive to tires.

QUEAKY BRAKES BAA SI(114,
Squeaky noises are the most pre-.
valent symptoms of brake disorders

✓ wires woven into lining, become ex -
o . awed by the excess wear of trek i

red against a Tepidly revolv-
ing brake -drum, from a metal-
'' to-tnetal contact tattler
ressure, and when the brekcs are
pplied the resulting vibration ma•
o es the brakes squeak and ]yowl. An
ut-of-round rendition of the
drake -band localizes the wear on
certain high -spots, thus setting up
series of distressing vibri.tions,
he distorted conditions of t ze.
and permits only the higher spots
n the lining to make c antact

EFFECTIVE SPARK PLUGS
It is important that the gap b:!•
tween the two electrodes of t,
spark -plug be inspected at least
twice a year, Electric current mu4t
jump across the small gap to cre-
ate a spark, which in turn ignites
.he mixture of gasoline and air in
the combustion chamber of the cy
tinder, A difference in the size et
the gap between the two electron.:

The British Market
A housewife in Engiand outbuy-
Ing a little baron for to -morrow's
breakfast or an apple or two for
the children's lunc'h, seems a far
cry from an orchard or farmyard
In Ontario. Yet it is that housewife
and the millions -more like here in
Great Britain who determined, to
c large extent, the price our farm-
ers receive for their products to the,
value of $185,000,000, and of this
total, about $400,000,000 worth
went to the United Kingdom. But
the competition is peen tend the
Brit)=h consumer demands certain
Icrands of food. Canadian produc-
ers. therefore, mut mace every ef-
fort to satisfy this market, upon
which they depend ..=o largely.

Crop Report For Year
The final crop bulletin for the
year, just issued, comprises an in-
teresting and informative review
of agricultural production during
ilze post year', According to this
review, fall wheat was better both,
in qua1lty n1)11 quantity than anti.
eipated, The average over the whole
province was about 40 bushels to
the acre. The increased- acreage in
fail wheat sown this year is about
five per cent., rather unexpected
under weather conditions. Oats this
year yielded but 90 per cent,of an
average crop. Burley, though good
in quality, was deficient in quant-
ity. Corn on the whole was disap-
pointing. Tobacco told the same I
story, Potatoes are returned as ex-
tra good in quality but only aver-
age Crop. Turnips are a short crop.
Live stock generally is said to be
in rather poor condition ; hogs are
fewer on the farms. Sheep and
lambs are said to have done better
and are increasing in numbers.

COMMITTE REPORTS
House of Refuge Committee
The Howe of Refuge committee
reported that it had met four time
during the year and passed accou
nts totalling $11,922,57. At et,cl
of these meetings the committee in
spotted the home and found every
thing in good order. The average
number of inmates during the year
was 8.6, of 'whom fifteen were pa-
tients returned from the Ontario
Hospitals. The committee is of the
opinion that, since the county is
relieving the Province of the edit
of maintenance of these returned
imnatos, the Province should ack-
nowledge this service by substantia)
igrants on account of these inmates,
A few years ago the Province made
a very generous groat per atend:lnce
at the house of refuge, but of re•
cent years this has been discontinu•-
Under the old age pension scheme,
inmates over seventy years of ago
are eligible for pensions and can
of their /ern will leave the Home
This, the committe objects to, as a1
11 rge number of those eligible for
the pension are mentally and phy-
sically unfit to leave the Home,
and the committee believes it would
be better were the sum total of
01031• pensions- remittedto the.
county trr'ssurer and the pensions
committee allowed to supervise the
disposition of the money of the
pensioners.
During the last year the matron,
Mrs. Jacob had had much extra
work imposed on her by the much
illness end lack of sufficient help
In the Home, and the committee
put in a plea for more generous
consideration by the incoming 80110-
031 for both Mrs. Jacob and 21r,
Jacob, the keeper of the Home.
It has been suggested that better
',revision be made for the buried of
31:0 inmates of the Home who have
no relatives or friends to- care for
the bodice, and the committee suat-
>ested that some ]mnrovrimnnt on
nl'n^ent methods might he worked
out in conjunction with the old age
pension committee,
n In view of the fact that this
t4 county and Province offer annual
t schol'ai•ships to young -amen in the
form) of both short.and longer cou-
rses at the Ontario Agricultural
s • College, it is felt: that young ladies
in rural districts in the county aro
receiving practically 710 assistance
and very little recognition along
' these lines. This has been brought
to the attention of the agricultur-
al representative by members of
Junior Institutes in the county,, and
. the advisory agricultural eouncil.re-
commends that asch0larsllip of $50
for a three months' course in home
economics at MacDonald Institute,,
Guelph, be offered to young ladies
in Huron county.
That members of Htiron county'
council take a trip of two days'
duration some time during the coin-
ing year.
That the county clerk write all
fall fairs 'executives in the county
suggesting that junior sections be
included in their regular fall fair
prize lists. If junior sections for
the junior farmers were included
the ages of eighteen and twenty-
five, might compote, the fall fairs
in which only the latter, between
should benefit greatly and would
also be on a sounder basis.
'County Road Commission
The county road commission re-
ported as follows ;
The program of works and ex-
penditures, as outlined at :the June
session, has not been carried out
entirely, due to the necessity of
confining the expenditures within
the amount of revenue provided.
However the expenditures 113v2
been kept within these limits by
reason of eliminating certain it-
ems of construction work and the
purchase of the proposed gravel
plant, as well as lower costs than
anticipated • for the Wroxeter
bridge, dragging and other costs.
Our dragging costs this year will
be about $5,000 less than in 1928,
due to the increased use of power
graders, and when more machines
are in use, and the organization
improved should be lowered consid-
erably,
The two county -owned • trucks
hauled 24,420 yards of gravel an
average distance of 4.1 miles at a
cost of $7,987.65, Including all
costs of depreciation, etc. 1f this
work had been done by contract at
15c per yard mile, it would have
Children's Shelter Committee
The Children's Shelter committee
reported th:,t the shelter had been
visited regularly and first-rlr:as 0071-
ditioss found, At present there aro
six children in the Shelter, four
boyo and two girls. They are all in
healthy condition and five are go-
ing to school, fin November the ma- f

count' of ill health and Mrs. J. Tig-

properties, everything being found, 0

to $1,023 -and repairs hall hila:

tionments for high schools of the
county :

The Wroxeter bridge was built

by the end of the year the net ex-

The past year has been very fav -
