It was one of the most suc- cessful events in the history of the association. The pato Market Ottawa forecasts estimate the Canadian.potato, crop at about 16 per cent. below that•of last year. In Ontario the crop is nearly 30 per cent. belbw that of 1928. The United States ecrop is one of the lightest in. ten years, in fact is the smalleg- with the exception of 1926. It will be readily appreeiated that potatoes are in a strong posi- -tion. Some Ontario and Quebec farmers are short of storage and Your Water Supply require ready cash; consequently prices are somewhat depressed at present, but as soon as digging has ben completed it is expected that prices will stiffen. One weekly newspaper editor re- cently made the following timely comment: "While drinking water in cities and' 'townie is frequently analyzed as to purity, the 'wells in rural sec- tions are too often taken. for grant- ed. In view of the long drought and the exceeding scarcity of water farmers would do well to know just what kind of water is being used in their. homes. In the last survey 'of well waters front farm homesteads, the samples submitted showed only some 24.4 per cent. as pure and wholesome. Every farmer may have the water fteted free of charge, provided samples are col- lected and sent )in prepaid. We suggest that farmers in this district consult the township medical health . Export Apple Market Prlospects for a heavier apple crop lite Ontario this season add emphasis to the export market as a profitable outlet or surplus fruit. United States apples are nob likely to glut the British recteket this year and although the Nova &edict crop is heavy, Ontario apples invariably command a premium over the Mari- time product in Britain, due chiefly to the fact that Ontario apples are inspected by the Government be- fore exportation.

HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION HOW TO EAT We are very often told how to eat and how important it is that .our meals consist of a variety offoods; The proper selection of foods is the first item to be considered, and the next is th9 eat food in the right way after it has been selected. The• following suggestions are made to cover the important „subject of How to Eat. 11/federation should be practised at all times. It is harmful to overeat, even of the proper folods. Excess does harm; it throws an unreason. - able strain on the body and so tends to wear it out early. Premature old age is the common result of neglect of the wathhword, "moderation." Meals should be eaten in .a. qui4t, restful manner, Fond is net readily digetted when the body is tired, or When the individual is worried or • angry. A rest before meals is re- commended to overcome body fa- tigue. Arguments or scolding should never be carried on at meal -time. Active exercise should not pe token immediately after eating. Exercise is needed by the body, but so is rest, and pne of the thnes when compara- tive rest is required by the body is after eating. Inds same idea of rest is the rea- son why meals should be eaten reg- ularly. The number of meals and the hour • is a matter of individual preference and custom. When meals are ettidn irregularly, or when food is taken between meals, the digestive system is not given the periods of rest which it requires if it is tie do its work properly. Eating between meals should be avoided. The per- son who requires extra nourishment should take it regularly. Nature has provided means for the mastication of food. Food should be eaten slowly and it should • be thoroughly chewed before it is swallowed. It should not be washed down with a drink before it is mas- ticated. There is no objection to the use of beverages in moderation with meals, but they should be taken when the mouth is empty. Moderation at all timesl—That is How to Eat!
