In Ontario forty com- munities have had a local option vote, thirty have remained dry and some others had a majority and would have been dry but for the necessary sixty per cent. The beverage rooms are the old bar rooms retouched and made at- tractive but the output is the sante, "Drunkenness." Miss Emma Johnston dealt with the topic for 'discussion, quoting from Garvie's ..Studiaes in the Life of Jesus. Miss Johnston said, it is sometimes said, that the best love is the love so selfless that it seeks no return, that is content with giving and seeks no return, that is content with giving and desires no getting. But is not this a mistake? Love is fellow- ship of life and is not content until the heart loving is also Ioved. Jesus gives .us His love but He asks ours in return, A solo "Dear Lord, For- give" . was beautifully rendered by Miss Donna Smith.

PROVINCIAL ,FERTILIZ- ER BOARDS From now until seeding time farm- ers will be visited by agents for fer- tilizer t anie` P s soliciting orders for fertilizer for use on the various farm crops. Fanners generally have 'come to appreciate the value of the judicious use of commercial fertilizers, but un- fortunately many farmers are not yet sufficiently familiar with the actual requirements of their particular soils and crops to 'choose the kinds of fer- tilizer which are likely to give them the highest returns for the money spent. „To meet this situation most of the Departments of Agriculture of the Provinces of Canada have estab- lished Fertilizer Boards, or Councils,, for studying the many kinds of fer- tilizer on the market and making re- commendations as to the analysis to use and the quantity to apply accord- ing to the differences in kinds of crops and types of soils.

Caught Fox Bare -Handed. A valuable silver fox which escaped from; the Berger Fox Farm early in January was recaptured in a rather strange manner' Iast Saturday. Dis- covered in the barn yard of a farm on R. R. No. 2, Petersburg, he was chas- ed by the farm hound. Making a cir- cuit of the field, the animal doubled in its tracks and literally ran into the arms of Clarence Knechtel, who snar- ed the animal by its tail. -Milverton Sun. Apple Maggot Stijppression The excellent results obtained in the control of the apple maggot in Canada since the formation of the Federal Apple Maggot Advisory C?zn- mittee still continue, Evidence of the marked decrease in the degree of -in- festation in the various provinces was forthcoming in the reports presented at the recent annual meeting of the Committee when several important resolutions were adpoted. With re- gard to the export of apples, the Com- mittee recommends for the consider- ation of the Advisory Board that, commencing with 1936, apples be ex-' ported only from certified orchards, or froth orchards where applications for certification have been approved by the necessary -authorities. The Committee further requests that the Advisory Board .notify all commerc- ial growers of apples in the provinces concerned) to that effect. In view of the need of a clearer definition of a "certified orchard," the Committee re- commends for the consideration of the provincial apple maggot control boards that the term "free froi n apple maggot" means an orchard which, af- ter inspection, has been found free from apple maggot for three consec- utive years. he Dumb W A TWO At,`: 'T MUSICAL COMEDY INGH Presented By The •-= ATIC LfUB, Under Direction of C.
