But for the fact that a 'survey of experts/ had shown that Huron 'County had a scarcity of apples ties year, a visit to the fruit show, given under the auspices of the Huron County Fruit Growers' Council, in the town hall, Clinton, on Tesday and Wed- nesday of last week, would hav$" be- llied this. It was a fine exhibit, attractively arranged, and gave to those wiio at- tended some idea of the ,possibill•t;es of fruitgrowing in this county. The President of the Countcll, Capt. R. R. Sloan, and others showed boxed apples, the newest and most attractive ,manner of marketing. A box of Mc- intosh Reds, the apple that has won first past two years at the im- perial fruit show, in England, wan the sweepstakes in boxed .apples. A bay res of Ontarios, 'rite product of A. Robinson, won the sweepstakes 'ln that class. The exhibits were mostly apples, but some fine specimens of pears were also shown, and some grapes. Also some garden exhibits. During the afternoon: and evening Mrs. Milland, of the -Institutes Branch, demonstrated ways of cookng apples and vegetables .to an interested crowd of women. At .the conclusion of the show G. H. Elliott, auctioned off the fruit, 'w'hen everyt'hi'img was sod. The best barrel of apples sold for $6.50, and the bent box at $5.55. In the afternoon several spraying outfits were denronstrwed at the side of the town hall, the fruit men taking much interest in their operation. The Council considered lite first, effort a decided success and are quite confident that they win hold another show next year. Prize Winners.

SCHOOL OF ELEMENTARY AGRICULTURE and HOME ECONOMICS To be held in Brussels from Dec. 1, 1924..to Feb. 27, 1925 FORWARD For three years the Ontario Department of Agriculture' has been offering a three months' short course in Agriculture .and Horne Economics. The courses have been well received in every district. Many boys and girls have availed themselves of the opportunity to further their •educatio•n'al standing by attending the courses. Wing - ham, Clinton and Exeter have been visited in Huron "County •nd we now' propose to hold one for the district; surrounding Brussels. To many who would like to take a course at The Ontario Agri- cultural College or Macdonr.ld Hall and cannot find time or money to leave home, these courses are an excellent substitute. To the boys and girls who are through with. Puiblic School they offer to op- portunity along educational lines, which should ,not be overltoked. The lecturers on all subjects are practical men and women and treat of 'practical subjects. They have a wealth of information gained from our Agridultura'• College and practical experience that isofinestim- able value to the young man r young woman startin •out itt life. We would ask the parents as well as theyoungpeople to give this course thein earnest consideration. The •opportunity will not be offered in this section again for some time. It will mean some sacri- fice on the part of all concerned but nothing worth while can be at- tained without some sacrifice. Our County ,needs young men and women as well equipped as possible. Let us get together and make these courses the success they deserve to be and see if we cannot do something for ourselves and our district. Staff of Instruction Principal — S. 13. Stothers, B. S.
