ONTARzo Beekeepers' Convention will
be held in Toronto on November 23. 24
and 25. A great program has been
mapped out in which leading apiarists
from tbe United States and Canada will
take part. The concentrated sweetness
produced by the honey bee is a healthy
and delightful sweet and is growing in
popular favor as improved methods are
being employed in its care by the bee,
keepers.
MONDAY of next week will be the Do-
minion Thanksgiving Day and will be a
Statutory holiday. This land has many
reasons for thankfulness even in the face
of all that may be disquieting. Next
Sunday's services in the various church•
es will no doubt lay emphasis on our
mission and privilege and show reasons
why the plain duty of the Canadian peo-
ple should be that of thanksgiving and
thanksliving. That we belong to the
great British Empire and that we live in
the banner colony are two prime reasons
why there sbould be melody in our
hearts as well as an expression of grati-
tude to God on our lips. "It is a good
thing to give thanks unto the Lord."
STRATFORD City Council is being ask-

LAST week's Farmer's Advocate dealt
out some hot shot relative to improve-
ments at Fall Exhibitions. It con -
etudes :--
It is about time some managers
pinched themselves to see whether
or not they are awake to the needs
of growiug institutions. A Fair
cannot be fos'salized. The alarm has
rung. Ir is time to wake up and
make a start.
Some exhibitors claim that all the
judging is nut done iu the ring. Ou
certain occasions they believe that
the man wins instead of the animal.
If so it is tune to turn from the
crooked way to the straight and nar-
row path, In the judging ring it
should never be "How good a fel-
low is the owner" but "How good
an animal is the contestant" that
should decide where the prizeshould
go.
'!`here's mere trd'h than fiction in the
concluding sentence.
SCHOOL FAIR, held at Duart, Kent
County, in which the public schools iu
the Southern portion of Oxford township
took part, was a very successful event.
Ia the exhibits were rive stock, vege_
tables, fruit, Lovers, greet, needlework,
penmanship and art. Addresses were
given l.y leading men and in the even-
ing a coucert was held. Day's proceeds
totaled about $l5o.00. This note
should do much to hearten the teachers
in Huron County who are interested iu
school gardens and Fairs and also a
waken the D,iectotates of the various
Agricultural Societies to the fact turd
provision should be made at their next
annual meetings for a recoenitiuu of
this work by appointing committees to

in which both sides were represented on
platform and press. Ample time was
afforded before the law catne into effect
to get rid of stocks and since then in
many instances Councils have reduced
the assessments on hotel properties by
hundreds of dollars. In the face of all
this some man feel disposed to defy the

PIONEER PRESERVING
(Sy Peter McArthur)
A request made some weeks ago for
the recipes used by the pioneers for
preserving fruit without sugar has
brought me replies from ail parte of
the Dominion, Although the methods
differ slightly 1n detail they are prac-
tically the same. Of course litany of,
Mir grandmothers dried their fruit, but
'their methods have already been de-
scribed in the press this season, and
are so simple that they eltould be wlttl.
in the capacity of any housewife who
can :boil water without burning It.
Here is a recipe for preserving blaek-
berrles and plums that le guaranteed'
to keep them fresh for any reasonable
length of time.
"Take a deep stone crock, one that
holds five or six gallons, and 1111 it
'with plums or berries that are not
too ripe. Place over them a board,
'or plate with a weight on it, prefer-
ably a good smooth atone which 10
easily cleaned, and then fill the crock
to overfloyying with hard water. Be
sure that the weight is heavy enough'
to keep the plume under the water or
they will spoil. There will be a scum
formed on top of the crock which
must be removed before using the
fruit which will be found as fresh as
when put up. Rhubarb cut in lengths
to fit the crock will keep the same
way."
.Another correspondent writes: "I
have canned tomatoes, apples, rhu-
barb and plume without sugar and
have had good success. After the
fruit has been cleaned and prepared
in the usual way fill the Jars as full
as possible, shaking the fruit down
'and packing it tightly, then place
rubbers and tops on tightly; put as
many jars as will fill the bottom 01
e wash boiler, with a board and heavy
;weight over them to hold them down.
four in as much cold water as will'
cover the tope of the jars and boil
twenty minutes after the water has
come to a boil. Plume may take a
little longer. They will be delicious
;and not epoiled as most fruit is that
is put away with too much sugar."
Here is another recipe that is prob-
ably alright though I would not care
to use it without consulting a pure
food specialist. "Pick the fruit from
the stalks and put Into bottles or
jars. Add one drachm of alum to
four gallons of boiling water and let
it stand until it is cold. Fill the bot-
tles with this liquor, bung them tight,
put them into a copper of cold water
and heat to 176 degrees. Then tie
them over with a bladder and seal
them."
That would probably preserve the
fruit but the very mention of alum
puckers my mouth, and I doubt if
fruit put up in this way would be
relished. However, the housewives
who think sugar is too dear to use
this season need not be without fruit.
Several to whom I have shown these
recipes say they are going to try them
anyway for it would be a luxury to
have fresh blackberries and cream or
fresh plums 1n the winter time.
FULL VALUE FRUIT
(By Peter McArthur)
The war is developing in many
people a higher ideal of citizenshtp—
a clearer conception of the fair -play
that should prevail in all the business
of the country. Eves our government
18 preaching honesty, thrift and econ-
omy—work that was usually left to
the pulpits. In addition to this, busi-
ness organizations are adopting a
more public-spirited attitude and giv-
ing more attention to the service they
should render for the money they re-
ceive.
A notable example of this new
spirit is being shown in the fruit
industry of the country, which has
now reached so large ., a proportion,
The organizations having charge of
the marketing of tender fruits (ber-
ries, currants, plums, peaches, etc.)
are particularly anxious to place the
work of marketing and distribution on
a plane of patriotic public service. It
is their aim to distribute. their pro- i
ducts so 'widely that there will be no
waete and at the same time to place I
them on the market in such a way
that the consumers shall have full
value for their money. During the '
past few months I have had an op-
portunity of investigating the business
of marketing plums and peaches. I
have interviewed growers, dealers and
retailers and have no hesitation in
saying that except in a few centres
ea
where there are local ordnance
a that
interfere with the business of market-
ing outside products it should be pose
Bible for consumers to get better ser-
vice than they have ever had in the ,
past. They should 'get- good sound 1
peaches and plums at a fair price and,.
order that they may be able tq
do pp I am going tomake them at}
mammal offer.
If you feel that you are being over,
charged for peaches, plums or tender
fruits kindly send the facts to
me,
stating price paid and date of making
the -purchase and the district from
which fruit was secured. This will 1
enable me to learn exactly what the
rice of fruit should have been where
u bought at that particular time.
