But children should be taught to be true to their awn country, to love it, to serve it, to give of their best to it. True patriotism -is not hatred of other lands and other peo- ples, but devotion to one's own, even. as true filial love, does not mean hatred of other people. Some folk seem to be so afraid of patriotism. They seen to think a it means a fierce hatred of all othe' people and areadiness to grab a gun and .march forth to war on the slightest 'pretext. That is jingoism, not patriotism. The -truest patriots. are the men and women who obey the laws of the land live in harmony and peace with their neighbors, rear their children- to be good ,citizens, who do everything in their epower to make their eollntry the best' possible place in which to live. Being true. to one's own family does not make one any the worse neighbor, so be- ing true to one's -own eountry need not and should not make any country less neighborly with another country. But, naturally, as in families, one's own comes first. In the great fam- ily of the British Empire Canada is aninfluential member and upon her falls the duty of being a wise, loving and devoted sister to all the other menehers. Wihile we have our own affairs to attend to and they natur- ally come first, as with members of the same family who have set house- keeping on their own eccount,0 we should be, ready to assist, to encour- age and to inspire the other members of the British family. .A. good patriot may sometimes have to defend his country when war is forced upon it, but the true patriot does not want war, he wants peace among the nations, even as the family wishes peaceful relations to exist between the several members of the family and the neighboring t°i*tf4 14 143 ''ll//�///err' atiomamma na TO RB A fine, fast, through train to the West, leaving Toronto daily at 9.30 p.tn,forMinaki, Winnipeg, Brandon, Regina, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Jas- per and Vancouver.

In case where the coin, or bill, is not available they have splencdid photographs of the, coin in question, which may be loca- ted in some provincial. museum. A photograph'of the so called "holy dollar" is an interesting part of the case. -Regarding ee, Mr. Webber, who is in charge of the Grey Room, says that a native of Prince Edward Island was in Ottawa a few months ago and said that he would forward him a coin. The photo is an excel- lent example of the pierced Mexican pillar. dollars which with the center piece were issued by Lieut. Governor Smith, of Prince Edward Island, The photograph is front the actual coin in the Nova Scotia provincial mus- eum at Halifax. and war. :the It ' tial ren of today aa Y arerear i ed in theo Here o£ atm s este' P peace; if they are taught to IovO their country well enough to live for it, to give their best service to it, the peace of the future is assured. ` Butthe idea that there is no need to study or practise patt'iotism unless we Meean to go out and fight our neighbors is foolish.

Turn into the baked pastry shell and bake in a slow oven of 350 degrees far thirty minutes, or until a silver knife inserted in the centre of the pie comes out clean. Remove and cool the pie.

SPITTING In a very interesting report of a study made on Tuberculosis covering a section of England, we find that the report closes with the following: - "There is one reform; and that by no tneans unimportant, which need not cost anything . If the filthy habit of spitting in public places could be ended by pressure of public opinion, a considerable source of infection would disappear." That a report which deals with the relationship of tuberculosis to house ing, employment and malnutrition CHEMICAL WEED KILLERS Every farmer in Huron County is very much concerned with the weed situation and all are interested in any development in the use of chemieals to control weeds. It has been found in experimental and field tests, that there are certain chemicals which may bo bought at a reasonable cost, which are very effective in killing weeds. The most serious objection we have to these chemicals is their etst, which in the case of some mat- erials now en the market makes their use almost prohibitive. However, One way of cutting down the cost of these materials is itt ordering them in bulk. Already a number of farm- era in Huron have placed orders and we plan to secure a quantity of the material, which when bought in bulk can be secured at reasonable cost. In tests ,conducted in the province of Ontario it has been definitely proven that a number of chemical weed kil- lers now on the market are absolutely effective in eontrclling such weeds as saw thistle, bladder catnpion, wild carrot and twitch grass. These weeds represent the majority of the commoner types of plants which nee giving most trouble and we know that many of them when they first appear start an small patches in tate field. In such cases cultivation is very often not practicable and it is under eucumstances of this kind that chemicals would be of very great value, The material which a number of the farmers in the county plan to use is Sodium Chlorate. This is the cheapest chemical now on the mar- ket and may be secured at 8c per lb. in 112 lb. drums. In smaller quanti- ties the price would be 10e per Ib. One pound willcover approximately 200 square feet, and one application has been found sufficient to kill the weeds. W,e believe that it would be its the best interests 'of every Farmer in the county to give one of the come: moner weed killers a trial. If you wish to secure any of this material or desire further information, write the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture, Clinton.

Brown, chief of the, Poultry Division • Live ,Stock Branch, Department of Agriculture, should close with such a definite statement as regards the dangers of spitting shows just how serious the matter is in the opinion of the writer. Spitting is Iargely a habit, Not so many years ago, every man spat when he. smoked. Why did he? Just because he had seen others do it and, therefore, it seemed to him to be as- sociated with the smoke. The cus- pidor was part of the household fur- nishings, This has all changed; how- ever; the smoker no longer spits, and the cuspidor in the home is becoming rate. There are nen and boys who seem to spit in order to have something to do. They stand on the corner and talk and spit, This is simply a bad habit. There is no disagreement as to the habit's being an objectionable and a filthy one. There is, however, judg- ing from what we see every day a lack of understanding that the habit isa very:angerons one, affecting oths er peep1e. Wihen- we consider that about one per cent. the en of h population are suf- fering from: active tuberculosis, we understand that if spitting is a come mon habit, there are bound to be many spit -tors who have tuberculosis. Spitting is mostly a habit. In the sanatoria for tuberculosis, very 'lit- tle coughing is heard, because the patients are taught that most of their coughing is "pnneeessary, that it is simply a habit, and that it can be suppressed. In the same Way, those persbne who, ton account of some condition, do ,collect phlegmin the throat and so desire to spit, can greatly lessen the f'reque'ncy of the act, and when they must spit,, can.

' 9 4 ► `(%THEN Professor Anderson found the way to VV shoot wheat and rice grains from guns he solved an important problem. He gave these crisp, delicious, ready -to -eat cereals rhe virtual nourishment of hot cooked cereals, Every grain of wheat and'rice contains 125 million food cells. Every food cell must be broken before the grain can be completely digestible. It takes long hours of cooking co do this. But Professor Anderson found a better way. He seals grains of wheat and rice in bronze guns. Revolves them in fiery ovens. Then fires the guns. This causes 125 million explosions in every grain. It blasts open every tiny food cell. Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice are thus made completely digestible. Hence practically as nourishing as hot cooked cereals. The grains become 8 times normal size. They have all rhe buttery crunchiness of fresh toast. They are made to taste like sweet new nut -meats. Never before was richt grain nourishment made so delectably good to eat. You owe it to your family to give them this extra delicious grain food that tastes like nut goodies. Otder. Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice from your grocer today.
