JW EN DT JEWELER WROXETER Successful Fair Held at Blyth Bad Weather on Second Day Kept Attendance Down. The Blyth Fair Thursday evening closed a successful two day show. The first day was fine weather and in consequence there were a great many entries. The display of fruits and vegetables was well up to the average and better than last year. The school children's exhibit was also good in Rowers, vegetables, writing and handi- work of various kinds. Thursday was anything but pro- pitious, as there was a cold north wind, with rain part of the time, but in spite of this there was a good en- try of stock of all kinds, especially in light and heavy horses and poultry. There were not as many entries in cattle, sheep and hogs as usual. The weather kept away the usual record crowd, there being only about 1,000 in attendance. In the evening the Wingham Con- eert Company put on a splendid en- tertainment in Memorial Hall before a packed house. After this enter- tainment there was a dance given in the hall, which was well attended. The Kilty Band, of Lucknow, furnish- ed the music for the day. The society will have a surplus on the whole fair.

Up to August 8, 608 boats had docked here and their total tonnage was 1,986,- 456, while up to August 13, 1924, only 587 vessels had tied up here since the opening of navigation of the 1924 season, and their tonnage was 1,891,367. One notable feature of the tour- ist season in the Canadian Rockies this summer has been the demand for saddle horses, according to J. M. Gibbon, secretary of the Trail Rid- ers, who recently returned to Mont- real from the west. The practice is growing of sending the horses in ad- vance to points where the trail. crosses a motor road and thus one commences one's ride at a point thirty or forty miles from one's headquarters. Thus the great caval- cade of over one hundred riders who participated in the recent three-day cross country ride between Marble Canyon on the Banff -Windermere Highway, to Wapta Bungalow Camp on the Canadian Pacific Railway, was made possible and convenient as it took only two hours to convey the riders from Banff and Lake Louise by motor bus to the points of departure. Twelve British newspapermen•rep- resenting some of the most impor- tant dailiea in Great Britain, are now making a' six weeks' tour of the country over Canadian Pacific lines. The party will travel from Halifax to the Pacific Coast taking in all the important industrial and scenic points of the country. They will spend a day at the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition at Toronto, and will visit the famous Bungalow Camps in Ontario, as well as the beauty spots in the Rockies. They arrived at Quebec on August the 22nd, on the Montclare, the object of the tour being to correct in the minds of representative British jour- naliste the erroneous impressions re- cently made in England regarding Canada by certain sections of the press. Under the heading, "The Incon- sistencies of Men," C. B. Fletcher contributes the following interesting remarks on freight rates to the. August "Railway Review": "Man's progress is measured by his adaptability to his surroundings and his opportunity to trade with his fellow men by exchanging products. Transportation is the essential in- strumentality for trade, commerce or business of any kind. "The phenomenal prosperity of the United States today is the direct re- sult of the most efficient transporta- tion facilities in the world - rail- road& "Railroad transportation is worth ten times what it costs today to every person in this nation, The railroads haul your meat 500 miles for 36 cents a hundred pounds, you pay from 20 cents for cheap cuts to 60 cents for special cuts of meat or from 60 to 180 times the cost of transportation. "The railroads haul flour 400 miles for 133 cents a hundred, 7 pounds for one cent. You pay 10 cents a pound for bread or 70 times the cost of transportation. "You pay one dollar for a meal at a first class hotel on which the freight charges were less than two cents, including everything served, and the coal to cook it, and then tip the waiter ten cents or five times what the railroad received for haul- ing it 400 miles or more. "The same than who tips the waiter ten cents will go out and make a speech and complain of high freight rates which are not one-fifth pf the amount of his tip.

LIMITED RAINGESi FURNAC S SILAGE FERMENTATION BOW THE SILO AFFECTS COBS F011 FEED. A Matter of Temperature and Air - Importance and Effect of Acid Formation -Steer Feeding --Silage and Grain Made Balance Food. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture. Toronto.) The first evidences of Change in the finely -out fodder are a rise In temperature and the production of carboule acid gas. The heat can be. demonstrated by hand and the pres- ence of carbonic acid gas is always to be suspected, since the -lessons learned during the old days of closed silos still remain firmly impressed on the minds of many. The oxygen in the mass of cut fodder is •quickly used up early in the process of fer- mentation. The temperature remains around 100 degrees F. except at the surface or at points where air is admitted, going much higher. The continued presence of air or oxygen is not'deslred and their removal from the mass prevents the development of molds. Molds are harmful in that they destroy or use up the acids re- quired for the preservation of the silage. Air -tight walls and a well coneoltdated mass are very essential in the control of fermentation. How Corn Changes In the Silo. The green corn changes to yellow, then brown and develops an aromatic 1 odor and sour taste. The sourness Is due to the development of lactic acid, the important preserving agent in silage making. Bacteria which cause decay and melds are inhibited r1/ an me acne poor'meuium or.iermen0- ed corn. The total amount or acid formed Is between one and two per cent. of the weight of silage.` Other products of the fermentation are al- cohol and sugar. Tho amounts of these are not large, being in the case of alcohol .1 to .4 per cent. of the weight of allege. ',The amount of sugar which disappears from the corn is almost exactly equivalent to the amount of alcohol and acid formed during fermentation. About one-half the sugar present in the recently en- siled corn is cane sugar. This le broken up into glucose and then changed to alcohol and acid. , need cbanges take plane rapidly and are generally completed in 12 days, giv- ing tving and excellent preservative me- dium, that will keep ensilage for years. How Fermentation Is Produced. The fermentation is brought about by plant enzymes carried by the corn, bacteria and yeasts, which may be attached to the cut corn or drift into the silo as it Is being filled. The sugar in the green corn juice Is at- tacked by the luverLase carried by the plant cell and reduced to simpler forms. These simple forms are at- tacked by zymase and a small amount of alcohol Is forru,•d, Acid forming bacteria also attack the sugars and bring about the c.lLnge resulting in the mass being Itegely acid in char- acter and therefore in a condition to keep. -L.
