The life of more than one child has been taken by the sickle -bar because tthe driver of the team was, not watching;the field ahead of him. Workmen by the score have been injured by not taking the proper care when working-arotmd the Mach- inery. and rho accidents caused by carelessness with pitchforks must reach an appalling. total, •Every farm- er should first be impressed with dan- gers ap gers himself and then warn his men to exercise the utmost care.. Specialize in Turnips. Wellington farmers have Just com- pleted the rowing of 9,000 acres of turnips which is about one-eighth of the total acreage for the province. Two thirds of these turnips will be sold for table purposes in United States cities. .Many turnip fields re- ceived very special cuttivation this year. Some of the fields were sum- mer followed last July and August and ridged up in September, matured this spring, thoroughly worked down ,then played again, harrowed, rolled, fertilized and ridged and rolled again until many of the fields , look like market gardens. Some start to scuffle their turnips before the seed is up in order to endourage rapid growth of the plants and easier hoeing'. Constant cultivation produces a crisp, sweet product of high quality, free of wood- iness and very tasty. WOMEN'S INSTITUTE. The district annual meeting of the West Huron iWomen's Institute was held at Auburn on June 17 with 250 delegates present. An executive meeting was held at 9.30 a.m. The morning session opened at 10 o'clock by the singing of the In- stitute ode, Mrs. Geddes of \\'ingham read the scripture lesson after which Mrs. Mortimer led in prayer. . The secretary's report was read and on motion of Mrs, Elliott and Mrs. Beckett was approved. The reports of the different branches, eleven in all, were received. They have been 'busy in their different activities and doing splendid work. We have a member- ship of 545, and 134 meetings were held during the year with an atten- dance off 4329, an increase of 289 over the previous year. Money raiseddur- ing tate year $5,1.89;56, with an ex- penditure of $2150.82. The standing committees on Im- migration, Horne Economics, 'Health. Canadian Industries, Relief, Commun- ity Activities, Historical Research, Child Welfare, Legislation, Agricul- ture and Education, were theta given. These were much better than last year and we hope for still better re - .sults in the future. A resolution com- mittee composed of Mrs. Bisset of Goderich, Mrs. \\rightntan of Blvth, and Mrs. Clegg of \Vingham, were ap- pointed to look after same. The meet- ing then adjourned for dinner, The afternoon session opened at 1.30 with community singing conduct- ed by the Auburn ladies. Rev. Mr. Mortimer welcomed the ladies and complimented the members of the \\'omen's Institute on the noble work they are doing for the betterment of our communities. ifrs. Colclough of Blyth replied to this address. We were then favoured with a solo by Mrs. Clegg of Bel - grave. Next carie the president's ad- dress, site had visited all the branches in the district and •it was both a sat- isfaction and gratifying to know they were getting along so well. We have passed another 'milestone and sug- gested a closer co-operation with tea- chers, pupils and .school boards. If :hey are to be 'better citizens we must give them our assistance. Mins Eadie from the department then spoke on Institute work, 'The first institute was founded in 1897. Since that time it has been continually increasing and today we have 1156 branches with a mem- bership of over 40,000. Similar erg anizations have been formed alt over the land, but our Women's Institutes have always set the example for other pountries. Mrs. Wilson of 'Goderich then fav- oredus with a reading which brought a hearts. encore. Mrs. \Vardia r of Ethel, Fede atien Representative, spoke for a few min- utes on the weed question which to- day ;o malty of our farmers have to contend with. There have been fifty million dollars spent in trying to de- stroy the weeds in our country, yet so many are indifferent about trying to keep them down. We had a Scotch dance by _Miss .McKenzie of Kintaii, also a quartette by the Myth ladies. A motion was passed to this effect: That we respectfully request the Pre- mier of Ontario to arrange that live :heusanl girls of this province go to Inc Royal Winter Fair as guests of the province.

PHONE 51 interested, the surroundings in which the cattle are kept should be aetrac- tive. One breeder who has had 're- markable success in selling livestock recently observed that next to the condition and quality of the animals for sale, the neatness and cleanliness around the barns were the most im- portant factors in predisposing a. man to buy, : They indicate the farmer's pride in his business and give the im- pression of prosperity. When a buyer funds a breeder enthusiastic over his breed and proud of the success which his herd is bringing him, it is not dif- ficult to •sell the cattle which are be- fore 'him. Sweet Clover as Manure. During recent years many farmers have been growing sweet clover in ro- tation with potatoes. A full crop o sweet clover ploughed under may be considered worth as much as 25 to 30 tpn's of barnyard manure. Where farmers have plenty of manure avail- able it may not be desirable to grow sweet clover for the purpose of plots ing it down but where the manure supply is limited it has been profitable to follow the above plan of action. Culture of Roses. In the 1930 edition "American Rose Annual" 160 distinct varieties of roses were reported, among these being the report of testing at the Ontario Age: - cultural College of seventy-one of these varieties. The college this year intends to double, or perhaps triple the number of varieties raider test in the College gardens during ,the nett three or four years. The important new introductions will be tested by the Horticultural. Department there and reported on before they are of- fered for sale to the public. Of the 1800 rose bushes growing in the col- lege gardens, not one was winter kill- ed during the past winter. Ontario Gardeners Competitions The Ontario Vegetable Growers' Association holds two competitions yearly, one for field crops and the other for a Garden• Competition to encourage well -kept premises. In the field trop competition various classes of vegetables are to be grown such as cabbage, lettuce. tomatoes. onions, etc. For both competitions to be hold there must not be less than ten entries from each district. The pro- vince is divided as follows: 1. Brock- ville, Cyrvitle, Kingston. Limoges. Northumberland, Ottawa, Peterboro, Prince Edward, Rednersville Whitby. 2. Ancaster, Brantford, Beamsviile, Burlington. Dunnville, Niagara, St. Catharines, Vineland: and 'Welland. 3. Agincourt. Barrie, Belle River, Chatham, Harrow, Kingsville, Lon- don, North York, Sarnia, Scarboro. Seaeliffe, Tecumseh, Toronto, Toron- to township. These competitions are open only to members of the Ontario Vegetable Growers Association. Pull Weeds Now Much value can be added to all field crops mad particularly those crops grown for seed purposes by the pull- ing of weeds when the ground is soft just now after the recent rains. Many farmers and especially those living in the weil known seed clover districts in Central. Eastern and Western Ontar- io, are finding that this rouging if the fields is not as difficult as supposed. The weeds stand up very prominently and ane slight pull will easily remove them. ' "The fields seem to have more weeds than they realty have," states a York County observer," as many of them usually have froth three or four branches, but all come together with a single pull. Owners of fields intend- ed for seed should bear in mind that it s almost impossible to separate many if our worst weeds, such as sweet clover. ca led dock and catch fly from the commercial seed c ops and on this account they are are'ortngly advised to over theg fielis non.' It is me i ed out hat the widespread rept-. of Pee: C -Prty as in alfalfa pr ?neer is liare•-'y dee to the facto that foe years they have made a regu- li'iiit ,f :tonging their fields of weeds. Cleanliness Needed, If Ontario I es ek breeders are to maintain the lucrative ata ken which ,etiiet today it is not sufficient that 1 hay? •a gbh, alfal; , to ,ell. In o : . to keep outside buyers! The tnost essential precaution'sto be observed in, growing sweet clover are to make sure that the soil is not acid, that it is well enough drained to pre -- vent heaving and that the seed is ino- culated. Current Crop Report. According to reports received from practically every county, crops ih On- tario are looking exceptionally well and proniiae to give heavier yields than have been enjoyed for some' time. Over most of the province hay will give a larger yield than last year. F'a+ul wheat is headed out and barley and oats are 'beading ottt in the southern part of the province. Cutting of all - alio and sweet clover has been fairly general during the past ten days and haying is now in full swing through- out the province. Dairy production is at its peak but farmers are dissatis- fied with the prices being paid for milk products for the manufacture of butter, cheese and condensed milk. An abundance of rain has brought along the pastures which are in fine condo- tion in most sections. Picking of strawberries and cherries is now gen- 'era] in the fruitegl'owin'g districts. OUT -OP -TOWN CALLS —QUICKER AND CHEAPER THAN EVER Less than a ticket to the talkies! In 1929 we added over 14,000 miles of talking circuits to our long distance facilities, Over 80 per cent of all calls are now completed "while yon bald the line." Mrs. Mitis was thrifty! She would dearly like to talk to her mother back home, as her friend told her she was doing every week, but think of the expense— She was astonished when she learned that a call for the distant number during the day would cost only 60 cents, and after 7 p.m. only half a dollar. Srate.he actually made her call after 8.30 and it cost her only i 35 cents --the night Now the weekly 3 -minute talk with her mother is a regular thing, And what a joy it is both to Mrs. Milts and her mother. Both declare it is almost as good as a visit 1 - Manypeople ate like Mrs. Mills =- they thin•e plong distance expensive ! Just run over the rates quoted in the opening pages of your telephone book — especially those for "Anyone" (station -to - station) calls during the evening and night periods 1 It will convince you.
