Oxeye Daisy and Wild Carrot.— In this article we are treating these two weeds together as the remedial measures in both cases are very simil- ar. Oxeye Daisy is a shallow root- ed perennial, producing a single white and yellow flower on a naked stalk. It le very prolific, a single plant pro- ducing from 5,000 to 8,000 seeds. flowering in June with seeds ripen- ing in July, and is found in old pas- tures, hay lands and road sides, and soon choke out the grasses where al- lowed to multiply. This weed does not give trouble on cultivated lands worked under a system of short crop rotation. but where found in hay and clover fields these should be mowed early, in order to prevent seeding, followed by shallow plowing and cul- tivation until freezing weather• which will usually prove successful. Pasture lands overrun with this weed may be cleared by devoting these to sheep grazing where these animals are kept, as they are very persistent weed dcrartroyers. 'Being found in many grass seeds offered for sale, great care should be taken to purchase only guaranteed clean seed as this is found to be one of the most pro'li'fic sources of this pest. Wild carrot is a biennial with a long vigorous root and stems, leaves and flowers similar to the cultivated carrot, and like the daisy is found in hay and pasture lands, by roadsides and in woodlots and waste places. ILfke the daisy it is easily kept in check in cultivated land by a regular rotation of grain and hoed crops. but in old meadows and lands never un- der cultivation it becomes a menace to everyone. -Cutting before the seed matures is only a seasonable remedy, and re- quires to be done at short and regular intervals to be a satisfactory prev- entative until late fall, and all know the spreading nature of the plant branches after each cutting, making it an almost intp'ossibie task to cut all. Grazing by sheep for a number of years is more effective than the fore- going, especially in woo'dlots and lands impossible of cultivation, and tt^here sheep are not kept, the only remedy for these woodlands is cutt- ing or pulling by hand. For a number of years municipal 'councils have been spending large Mums of money for the cutting of weeds along the roadside, which in the case of the two weeds treated in this article, is not bringing very sat- isfactory results. We are convinced that if these monies were spent for a few years in securing the co-opera- tion of the landowners and patrol- men in a judicious cultivation and le- •velling of the roadsides wherever this is possible, fnllowewd by seeding to a . with Motion Pictures, Discussions and Mechanical Demonstrations, Conducted by Specialists of Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited Friday, March 13th 10:30-12:00 O'CLOCK (NOON) Mechanical Discussion 1:30-2:10 P.M.

The niunicipiaities headed _by May- or Robson of Guelph asked relief from paying in the suburban areas.; while Toronto asked partial relief, be lieve the burden too heavy as it naw stands. Toronto asked a portion 'of the gasoline tax refunded to the cities, but on bhe other !land other munici- palities suggested that the gas tax might even be raised in order to pay for the .suburban areas. It was also suggested that license fees be raised. Townships urged that the govern- ment increase their portion of such roads from 80%" to 90%, thus reliev- ing the townships > of ten per cent • of *the cost.' Premier Henry intimated the Gov- ernment intended to again delve into the question, but gave no suggestion that the ne uiicipalitiee would receive relief in this regard, arguing that the cities receive much benefit from the highways leading into bhe urban areas. 'Seeking to have ;native wine sold without a permit, a deputation of the Ontario Grape Growers conferred' with the Agricultural Committee. Ira L, Graham, chairman of the Essex County Farni Bureau, urged that the wine permit system be abolished, de- claring the manufacturers would then have a Netter chance of selling their Product. He . declared the manufac- turers have enough wine on hand to carry them over for several years. T. J. Mabony, M. •P. +P., South Went- worth, stated the importation of grape juice from Australia was a dan ger to the industry. while the ban- ning of fruit spirits for fortifying. wine had so lowered the quality of Ontario wine that it could not hope to compete with the subsidized Aus tralian product. sI.n a further move to reorganize the industrial penal institutions in the province, Hon. Leopold Macaulay, provincial secretary, announced that N. S, Oliver, superintendent of the Industrial Farm at Fort William is transferred as superintendent of the Industrial Farm at Burwash, suc- ceeding J. K. Fairfull, who resigned. H. S. Western, of Barrie, a graduate of the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, is appointed superintendent of the Fort 'William farm. Ontario is not yet ready far legis_ lation requiring vehicles to stop at all railway crossings. Arthur Ellis, South Ottawa, introduced an amend-. ment to the Highway Traffic Act, calling for this - drastic move that is now in force in Quebec, but when the amendment came for second reading strong .opposition arose. In all twelve members -.spoke against the move. Premier Henry declared the time has not arrived when 'such legislation should be enacted. At the same time, Prenvier Henry 'dec'lared the Depart- ment of Highways is continuing . its campaign to have counties and town- ships protect their crossings with signals and signs similar to those used on provincial highways. Pre- mier Henry quoted figures showing Onthrio's fatalities at crossings, de- spite of a larger proportion of motor vehicle traffic than Quebec, have not shown a perceptible increase and that progress in preventing such fatalities is being made. Mr. Ellis consequently withdrew bhe bill. Mr. Ellis' proposed bill to 'provide for only one vote: for property holders. in municipalities on by-laws was also withdrawn. Hon. Leopold Macaulay, provincial secretary, pointed out such a system of voting provided the only .protection for the taxpayer in protect- ing his property. Provision is made in a bill introduc- ed and given second reading by Fred Mcsi3rien, Brockton -Toronto, for mu- nicipalities to grant pensions to de- pendents of slain police officers while discharging their duty. The bill was introduced to cover cases similar to that of Constable . hlcQuil•len of the Toronto Police Department, who was shot while attempting to arrest two men in a stolen auto. Hon. Janes Lyons, li. tP, P., Sault Ste. Marie, in .,peaking on the debate on the adoption of the address in reply to the Speech from the Throne; urged the establishment of a form of compulsory unemployment insurance, He declared such a fund should be contributed to by workmen, employer and the state. Such a system, he de- clared, should not be allowed to de- volve into a dole claiming that a max- imum period of participation should be set, and also a workman could not participate until he had contributed a year's share to the fund. Working- men should contribute on a basis of earnings. Hon. Mr. Lyons atiso ask- ed for designation 'of the trans - Canada highway' through Northern Ontario by way of North Bay, Sud- bury, Sault Ste. Marie, the Twin'. Cities, Dryden, Kenora and the Manitoba boundary. No ' agreement had been reached on this plan, Hon. Wm. Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests stated, Argue Martin, West Hamilton, and T. A. Sanderson; Grenville, were in- troduced to the House by, Premier Henry, and W. H. Ireland.

"I'11 go and see that hockey game Between those well-known teams, The Orioles from the Mill Road, And St. Columban's Greens." ,"Who won the game " Don't ask me that, 'Tis not for me to say, The Green Shirts took the silver cup, And carried it away. The Orioles won the; honour Of fighting to tote end, When the Green Shirts met those. stalwarts, They found then{ hard to bend. • h P a e a Mattie in goal stopped some dandies,! I heard one old boy say, Vince Lane.went burning up the ice, He's captain of t e Greens. He took some burns and gave soene too, ,He's always there it seems, Joe and Emmetnd George . Ma- lone Are nimble on their feet, The way they get about that ice It gives the fans treat. 1be Sanu'ts above alb look down with love, To see that young man play, Hicknell and Daly were the stars, They did their level best, ' Time and again they `made a rush !That 'put George to the test," "Jim Morris deserves much credit, He showed what he could do He handled web the sticic'he had, His aim was straight and true.'" John Moylan's but a small wee lad, ‘Bnthad the'grit to stay, He'll be the hero of the game - In years not far away. Art and Wilson are two good boys They're fighters to the core, Every time they made a rush The crowd thought sure they'd score. The goalie in the Mill Road nets, Sometimes made me shiver Some of bhe shots he saved that night 'Would make a brave man quiver. 9Wilse McCartney on left defence. And Larky on right wing, Are the kind of boys to make a team Not scared of anything." "Now that young Donnie Dale, my ,friends, Looked pretty good to me. The way` he buzzed around that rink Was very nice to see." "And there's another pair of boys Davy and Jim by na'ate, What e'er they do they're always fair, They always play the game." "There's another lad named Elliott, From out nigh Varna town, Who came out best from ev'ry test And won himself renown." "Again I say please do `not ask Who 'tveas that won the game, The Green Shirts won the silver cup, The Orioles, tfeey., won fame." "When comes the harvest time again; They'll stop to chat a spell, And say, 'Sit was a dandy game, And didn't we dr well.'

THE CUP WIN,N'ERS, The St. Calum�b'an hockey team, 'Goal right out to centre, Have had a jolly good old time. • Playing all this winter. The reason that ..hey won the cup, Give every one his rights, It was becan:se they're fit and trim, From staying in at nights. Alonzo Matthews in the net And Lane out on defence, These two were married long ago, They should have had more sense. But Lane, now this must be told, Don't anyone dare squeal That he has right next to his skin' A coat of solid steel.

Jack Daly roasts the centre ice, A real good sport, you het, ' But never mind, I kinda think, !Some girl will get hien yet. Jack Moylan subs on Jimmie's wing. And works hard out there, too, He, like Malone, is all alone,. His girl is with Joe's, too. George Malone is a real nice ehap, In centre 'ide he plays But he is always out at nights, And bleeps near all the days. Emmet Malone and Francis Hart, These two complete the team.
