SOCIAL SERVICE COUNCIL CONVENTION JUNE 22ND At a recent meeting of the'Execu- tiye Committee of the }Heron County Social Service domicil, it was decid- ed to hold the annual convention in Seaforth, on Wednesday, June 22nd, when a strong program will be pro- vided. In a very emphatic why the Execu- tive expressed their disapproval of the action of the Ontario Government in replacing Mr. W. T. Fellow as en - tenement offieett in Huron County. During -his term of office Mr. -Fellow has had the entire approval and•' en - donation of the organization throughout the County, which be- lieves that it.. has been large- ly due to his efficiency and untiring efforts, that the Temperance laws have been so well enforced. The published reportsof the Government' also show -Mr. Pellow to have been one of their most, efficient officers, and a protest has been sent to the Attorney -General concerning this change in Ilui'on County, The Liquor Control Board of On- tario has been advised by the Execu- tive that Huron County expects that they will be recognized by the Board, as "dry" territory, and that no at- tempt wbe Wade to establish liquor q ar storesin this rs Colin t Y, contrary to the expressed will of the people as shown by large majorities on severe' occa- sions. - le MOTORISTS MUST IIAVE LICENSES AFTER' JULY 1st. TORONTO, May 26. -Every mot- oristin Ontario will, after July -1 of thisyear ,.be required to carry a driv- er's license. An order -i -council to this exsect was passed today at the Cabinet council meeting of the Fer- guson Gov g rnsnel t, e n . ft fixes a fee of 41. for the., license and provides that it should be valid until the end of 1928, The proposal for a driver's license Tor motor car'" i 0 operators ars. has been her- alded for some time past by Hon. George Henry, minister of highways, The intention originally' was to snake it effective at, the beginning :of the present year, but clerical difficulties in the department prevented' -it being handled then, due to the rush inciden- tal to the issuing of the motor license plates. It was stated at that time, however, that the license would cone into force about midsummer, Experienced Drivers The license will be granted auto- matically upon payment' of the $1 fee to experienced drivers, into which class all persons who have driven 500 miles or for 'six months will be ad- mitted. Inexperienced drivers will be required to pass the scrutiny of in- spectors, who n-spectors,'who will be appointed by the department in the various centres of the provinces. Examinations by these inspectors will cost the individual who is securing his first permit • $1, which will be retained bye the inspector as his remuneration for his work. The Government is estimating that. it will issue an averageof two drivere. permits for every motor vehicle'in the province. On this basis the revenue from the licenses would be somewhat in excess of $600,000. WATCH FOIt DISEASE (Experimental Farms Note.) American foul -brood is responsible for more losses in beekeeping than any -ether - single -factor. Not only does it -destroy bees, but crops are re- duced and equipment is iost"because of it. Its seriousness lies in the fact that the cause of the disease may -live for ninny years in any infected mater- ial and may bring about a return of the disease at any time unless the Material is thoroughly disinfected or destroyed. Once a colony ; becomes infected, its powers of production are. soon lowered; it becomes weaken= and weaker and finally dies. Moreover, such a colonyis easy prey for robber bees and may become the source of in- fection for every other colony in the district. While the various provincial departments employ a number of apiary inspectors, itis impossible for these men to examine every colony during any one season, therefore, every beekeeper o should, r s u d to a certain extent lies me his owni o inspector and d p be on the watch for disease at every examination of his colonies. While it may be true that many beekeepers aro unable to distinguish disease, most of them know the alpolitanee oI. healthy brood and are able to tell if any abnormality i5 present, In such cases a pleee of Comb,- about two inches square and containing some of the abnormal Brood,: shouldbe packed in a cardboard box and sent to the Provincial Apiarist or to the Bee Division, Central Experimental. Farm," Ottawa, -where a diagnosis of it will be made free of charge; As soon as the weather becomes warm enough in the spring so that a colony may be kept ,open'' for a short time without chilling' the brood, or', examine ' the combs carefully for disease. As there are, comparatively few bees in the hive at this time of the year, any abnormality of the brood can be de- tected much easier than later in the season. Watch for it at every exam- ination and for further particulars write to the Bee Division at Ottawa. C. H. Gooderham, Dominiop.
