Seatorth Poet
Mies Griesbaok of Oollingweod, sec-
retary of the United Farm Women's
Club was in Seaforth recently and gives
experience in the Weekly her expo t Y Sun as
follows,—
Indeed, to take the mind away from
the'hum•drum of daily tasks, to cul-
tivate testa and appreciation for music,
poetry and the finer things of life, are
surely among the legitimate aims of
rural clubs-. And along this line orig-
inal work is always interesting. For
instance, at the Seaforth meeting, on
August 7, at which the matter of the
women's admission into the U. F, 0.
was the principal matter under ooneid-
ation, the secretary evoked much amuse
meat and "continued applause," from
both the men and the women present
by the recitation of some of his own
composition which I give below, And
I want to say that if any of the breth-
ren think they have more laudable sen.
timents tucked away •in their bosoms
than those expressed in Mr, Scott's
verses, I challenge them and adjure
them to bring forth the same, Indeed
1 think it is t'istinctly "up to" the
brethren to give the sisters to under-
stand beyond any doubt or questiou
that the presence of the latter in the
clubs ie desired and will be appreciat-
ed. 11 they cannot do this in poetry,
shay surely can in prose.
Here are Mr, Scott's lines:
'ln this dark age of strife and snub,
Though men we aro of many parts,
The success of our Farmers' Cluba
Is the great object of our hearts.
But while we put forth all our powers,
And do our level best to win it,,
No great suocess can e'er be onrs
Unless we have the ladies in it,
They'll do business without our fuse,
By the exerois, of common sense,
great benefit they can be to us,
- With their well-known noble in-
fluence."
Mrs, Archie Scott of this town and a
grandson of the late Mr, Robert Gov-
eulock,
That Surplus
in response to the call for increased
production the people of the cities,
towns and villages of Canada have vast
ly inoreaeed the garden acreage in this
country, Last year it was 'estimated
by the Agricultural Gazettethat the
value of the war gardens' produoe • a-
mounted to eomewhere between $20
000,000 and $30,000,000. This year
Mr, Frederick Abraham, Hon. Chair-
man of the War Garden and Vacant
Lot Section of the Canada Food Board
after a survey of Canada's war garden
reports from coast to °oast estimates
that this year's production will be two
or three times greater than last-, On
this baste the war gardens of Canada
this year have produced anywhere
from $40,000,00 to $90,000,000 worth
of fruit and vegetables. Tailing a con-
servative view of these figures, the war
garden production in Canada should be
for 19i S.
h bout $50,000,000

It would be a positive shame, if,
after all the work, time money and ma-
terial spent upon these gardens, a large
proportion of the grope were allowed to
go to waste for lack of distribution to
coneumere, 11 is impossible for the
family of the war gardener to coneurne,
in many oases, more than a fraction of
the vegetables and fruits kis garden
has produced. The Canada Food
Board has urged war gardeners to oan
perishable fruits and vegetables in the
greatest possible quantity, but many
Iota have grown more than one family
can use, even taking into account the
interval between now and next harvest
either fresh, canned, dried or stored.
Amateur gardeners, in numerous oases
expressed themselves as unwilling to
sell their surplus vegetables and fruits,
not oaring to talre . the position of
growing gardeners out for money, 11
such gardeners would forswear their
delicacy in this matter, recognizing
that these are war times, and the
shortage of foods is well nigh world
wide, it would avoid a serious danger
of waste. Where they can dispose of
their shrpine, either by sale or by gifts
to their less well situated neighbors,
they should take pleasure in doing so.
The community is being closely knit by
the necessities of war. Food product-,
ion, food storing, food ooeservatitn
and food distribution are all patriotic
services of utmost importance to the
whole community.

And why not?
Is not every
woman interested
in what she is

This is an exact

Priced New
Fall Coats
WHAT SHALL WE SAY
�- 'AB0uT THE NE,W COATS ?
We are so enthusiastic about the new styles that we'd could
fill fully two or three columns telling about the displays,s+ but
there is one thing in particular that stands out above the rest
The whole secret of the beauty of these garments lies in their
simplicity. Freakish styles are taboo --and you will not find a
single one in this collection We have exerted unusual
efforts to have each coat represent a special style feature. The
use of plush by the designers is very important and just enough
of it is used to reduce the cost and to give the coat a touch
of becomingness.
Here we must limit ourselves to the description and if you
are to choose the best style from among these, it is only nat—
ural that you be urged to make immediate selection.
